Broken civilizations get rebuilt at the local community level as families, businesses, churches and small civil governments begin to learn what those local institutions can be. That is happening right now in the US, primarily in rural counties.

Some Priorities For RFK, Jr., at HHS

If confirmed by the Senate, Robert Kennedy will take charge of HHS, which controls the FDA, CDC, and NIH. If not confirmed by the Senate, he can still be appointed by the President under the Recess Appointments Clause in Article II, Section 2, Clause 3 of the Constitution.

The following crises were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, on July 26, 2000. The government has yet to take steps to address them.

The author was Dr. Barbara Starfield, a widely respected public health expert at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health. Her review, “Is US Health Really the Best in the World?” revealed that, every year in the US, the medical system kills 225,000 people, and severely maims many more.

The breakdown 24 years ago has only become worse. At that time, the FDA approved drugs which killed 106,000 people, and mistreatment and errors in hospitals killed 119,000 people. Priorities for reform:

ONE: The FDA has been routinely approving medicines as safe, when they actually kill people.

TWO: Prestigious medical journals routinely publish glowing studies of medical drugs that are actually killing people.

THREE: The federal government has done NOTHING substantial to reform the deadly medical system.

FOUR: The mainstream press failed to follow up or investigate this explosive ongoing tragedy.

FIVE: The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has never highlighted THIS MEDICAL cause of disease.

SIX: The FDA has never made moves to completely overhaul its drug-approval process.

What can a president do completely unilaterally for gun rights?

Here's a list compiled by Open Source Defense:

  • Repeal Bush 41’s assault weapon import ban

  • Redefine “armor-piercing ammo” to re-allow banned ammo types

  • Redefine 922(r) out of existence

  • Bring back kitchen table FFLs, and make a new internet-sales FFL (this is in the 2017 ATF white paper)

  • Repeal the photos and fingerprints parts of ATF Rule 41F (an Obama-era rule change), so that trusts don’t need photos and fingerprints for their members. (Careful here: Rule 41F also changed “you need CLEO approval” to “you just need to notify your CLEO, but they can’t stop you” — that was a very important positive change to keep.)

  • Expansive allowance for pistol braces. Make it official that anything goes.

  • Grant a blanket lawful purposes exemption for gun possession to people in the country on nonimmigrant visas (tourists, students, etc.)

  • Machine gun amnesty

  • Presumptive approvals for Form 1s and Form 4s. They approve it instantly, and then can claw it back ...

Why Dr. Betz Thinks Civil War Will Come to The West

“It is impossible to maintain an integrated multivalent society once neighbors start kidnapping each other's children and murdering them with hand drills, blowing up each other's cultural events, slaying each other's teachers and religious leaders and tearing down their icons. Crucially, it is soberingly worth noting, moreover, that plenty of instances of all those things have occurred already in the West, and all of them have occurred in France alone in the last five years.”

 David Betz, Professor of War in the Modern World at King's College London.

Dr. Betz does not mention crimes of rape, perhaps because in France it is so enormously underreported. Only ~6% of victims report to authorities, because of fear of being blamed and charged with Islamophobia or other “hate crime.” Based on these few reported accusations, rape by migrants in France exceeds 10,000 cases in the last five years. Multiply that by the 94% non-reported cases. Sometimes there are witnesses. In ...

Fast, Dumb AI: A Higher Level of Low, Fake Intelligence

The theologian Robert Dabney, in writing against public education, claimed that the half-educated man is worse than the man without any education, for the latter at least knows his ignorance and will look to his betters humbly for guidance, whereas the former thinks he’s educated and proceeds without caution into abject foolishness.

Fast, dumb AI catering to the impatient risks creating a society of not half-educated but entirely pseudo-educated people whose self-appraisal of what they know will reach historic lows proportional to what they actually know.
