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.

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 months later or whatever if you get denied. This is how NICS checks already work — if you don’t get a yes/no within 3 days, you can take the gun home and then they just claw it back if you eventually get rejected.

  • C&R firearms are defined as any gun more than 50 years old, or any gun that the ATF deems to be a C&R. They could add a massive influx of modern guns to the C&R list. Basically all the cool ‘70s–‘90s guns. There’s no reason the Steyr AUG and MP5 and FAL and the like shouldn’t be considered classics. AKs too.

Are You Watching the Cultural Forces Aligning?

Charlie was a hard-working and very talented man, but he worked hard at what? He was a campus evangelist and a podcaster. He had thrown himself into the mission of talking about doctrine and comprehensive worldview with nineteen-year-olds. Doing that, he became such a cultural force that he was shot and killed by the darkness we are up against. And at the memorial service for this campus evangelist, you had the president’s cabinet sitting in the front row, the secretary of state declaring the gospel, the vice-president of the United States walking us through the Nicene Creed, numerous faithful Christians pointing the way to Jesus Christ, the president himself present and speaking, a beautiful widow speaking her beautiful words, and with thousands upon thousands in the stadium, and a hundred million people watching around the globe.

Two Bio-Weapons Did What They Were Designed to Do: Kill Humans In a Controlled Timeframe

The two weapons were the Covid virus and the Covid vaccine.

A bombshell new peer-reviewed study has dropped a hammer on the official Covid narrative, concluding that both the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the mRNA “vaccines” share “deliberately engineered” features consistent with gain-of-function biological weapons research. The researchers behind the study warn that the mRNA injections have caused “unprecedented levels of morbidity and mortality.” The study’s paper was authored by 11 scientific and legal experts. It was published in the prestigious Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons. You can access the study here:

Isn't it a crime to incite violence?

Yes. 18 U.S. Code § 373: specifically criminalizes the solicitation of a crime of violence.

The law covers actions that "solicit, command, induce, or otherwise endeavor to persuade" someone to commit a felony, with the intent that the other person will use physical force against property or another person.

From the State Department on the 27th:
"Earlier today, Colombian president @petrogustavo stood on a NYC street and urged U.S. soldiers to disobey orders and incite violence.

We will revoke Petro’s visa due to his reckless and incendiary actions."
