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.

We explore real-life reformation here in this informed, online community.

We cannot have an executive-level discussion of European security without Russian participation

Judge Napolitano:
"General Keith Kellogg, who president Trump has indicated he wants to be his principal emissary and adviser on Ukraine and Russia, sounded the other day like he had just had breakfast with Tony Blinken. He is reported to have said--it has been reported and not denied--that if Putin doesn't discuss quickly the concept of a ceasefire we'll send more ammunition, military gear, and equipment to Ukraine. How crazy is that?"

Col. Douglas MacGregor:
"It's worse than crazy. There are three things. First of all we are risking a direct confrontation with Russia. We don't understand and don't care to listen to people who tell us that the Russians are at the precipice of going to war against us.

"In other words, they're asking themselves, 'What's the point of trying to talk to the Americans? There's no evidence that they will keep their word, there's no evidence that they will honor any agreement we make, so under these circumstances why not just mobilize the country and strike to the West all the way to the Polish border?' This is frightening. It's not something that the Russians want to do, but when you hear the kind of thing that you just mentioned uttered by General Kellogg, that suggests that they may not have any choice.

"Again it's a failure to admit that Russia has any legitimate interest whatsoever. They do have legitimate interests and we ought to recognize that. We need to stop treating them as the redheaded stepchild that has no rights, no opportunity to speak, and then we also need to look at Europe and understand Europe is rapidly slipping from our grasp."

Yes, A.I. Is Powerful. Doomsday Powerful

Somebody typed a prompt, and a virus came out.

Sixteen of them. Genomes written by artificial intelligence, ordered as synthetic DNA, assembled on a bench, and grown into stocks that replicated and threw off offspring. Thirteen carried mutations that match no known natural sequence. The scientific paper ran in the publication Science, and its senior author disclosed funding from the Gates Foundation.

Six years ago, on April 6, 2020, Bill Gates sat with Trevor Noah and said a vaccine was the only thing that would let us return to normal — and announced that his foundation would start building the factories before anyone had seen efficacy data. Scale during testing, he said, rather than waiting for results. A great many people heard optimism. Some of us heard a schedule.

The Trajectory of National Evil

"There are times when a people tolerate an evil for so long that they cease to recognize its enormity. The evil acquires procedures, professional language, political constituencies, legal protections and respectable explanations. Eventually bloodshed receives a clinical name, partiality becomes public policy, and injustice—once sufficiently regulated—begins to look almost ordinary."

-- Bill Evans

Taking Orders From the EU

The @EU_Commission met today with Meta & TikTok on the situation in Ceuta.

"Platforms must act decisively in keeping the integrity of the digital space, in particular during crisis situations. Monitoring must increase, cooperation with fact-checkers to be strengthened."

What has social media been commanded to do? Cover up the fact that 72,000 military aged males invaded Spain over a two day period? Spin the story? Hire fact checkers who say, "Don't believe the misinformation. It was only 72 migrants." What were the orders given to social media regarding the Hungarian election of 2026? What orders are being given to the new puppet government of Hungary by the EU?
