Glad to see @Asmongold has noticed my interview with @FrankWrighter for @vpopulimedia. The MSM tried to ignore Restore Britain🇬🇧. They tried to control the narrative. We won't let that happen.🫡 Alternative journalism is the future.

I hope people understand what’s happening because it’s been the same story over and over again. The Islamic Republic and their allies leak their preferred details as if they are agreed to western sources. Then when U.S. refuses to agree to those absurd terms and insists we stick to the deal that had already been under discussion, they claim the U.S. is backing out of the deal. Then they blame America or Israeli influence for the lack of a deal instead of The Islamic Republic making unreasonable demands for a settlement after they lost the military fight and are facing an economic crisis. We saw the same thing with Gaza repeatedly.
Iran International English@IranIntl_En

US President Donald Trump is backing away from the deal with Iran, likely under extreme internal pressure, an Al Jazeera reporter said on X citing two sources.

You know what the really weird part is? The Left really believes that Republicans hate black people, Hispanic people, and gay people. We don't. We want black Americans, Hispanic Americans, and gay Americans to do well. We want them to be independent and prosperous. Just because we don't think they should get SPECIAL treatment doesn't mean we hate them. All Americans treated the same. That's all we've ever wanted.

Brothers and Sisters, listen up. I just watched something that hit me like a gut punch u expectedly in the dead of night. Our enemies, those who want to tear down everything we hold dear, are not sitting around doomscrolling and arguing in comment sections. They’re organizing. Quietly. Ruthlessly. Effectively. While we post memes about liberty and train alone in the woods, they build networks that survive raids, betrayals, and decades of pressure. They use small, trusted cells. Redundant connections. Clear codes of conduct. Decentralized execution with ironclad loyalty at the local level. A handful of committed operators can paralyze empires. History proves it over and over: tiny organized minorities beat disorganized majorities every single time. Bolsheviks. Viet Cong. IRA active service units. Cartels that laugh at billion-dollar interdiction efforts. They don’t need everyone. They need the right ones, bonded by purpose, who actually show up when it counts. And us? We can’t even get three guys within 10 miles to train together consistently without egos, suspicions, or “I’m too busy” excuses blowing it up. We’ve been conditioned to stay fragmented, online warriors with zero real-world coordination. Arguing purity spirals while the other side recruits, vets, trains, and acts. We wait for politicians who sold us out years ago. We chase the next dopamine hit of outrage instead of building the relationships that actually matter when the lights go out or the knock comes at 3 a.m. This isn’t theory. This is diagnosis. A small, disciplined group of men who trust each other with their lives will always outmaneuver a scattered crowd of lone wolves. Our own founding fathers knew this, Committees of Correspondence, Sons of Liberty, Minutemen. Local. Trusted. Ready. Not strangers on the internet. Not endless podcasts. Real bonds forged in sweat, shared values, and mutual reliance. Organize or die. That’s not hyperbole. It’s the cold law of history and human conflict. The enemy understands it. They live it. While we fragment further, they tighten their networks. They don’t need your permission or a perfect leader. They just build. I’m tired of watching good men with skills, principles, and gear sit isolated while the ground shifts under us. Start small. Find the 3-5 people near you who actually share your fire. Train together. Talk real plans. Build trust that surveillance and infighting can’t shatter. Protect the connectors. Vet ruthlessly. Move with purpose. This isn’t about starting trouble. It’s about being ready so trouble doesn’t finish us. Community resilience. Mutual defense. The restoration of what used to be normal American civic life before comfort and screens made us soft and suspicious. The time for solo hero fantasies is over. The window is closing. If we don’t organize locally, deliberately, and without apology, we’re choosing defeat by default. Who’s in your circle right now? Who would actually answer the call? If the answer is “nobody,” fix it. Today. We don’t need millions coordinated at once. We need unbreakable small units that scale through trust, not hype. Organize. Or die.

Or you forage a bit of an excess and preserve it to get through the winter. You can smoke meat, jerk it, can vegetables, pickle some meats and veg, dry and store certain fruits or convert them into other foods that you can store. Humans dealt with winters for thousands of years before modern agriculture and power grids. It's not easy but it is doable.

@GKMasterson @MetamateDaz Most forage is not available during winter months in the UK… in fact, nothing much grows at all… not even grass…but maybe with the global warming we can start to grow things all year around…

You’re born onto a planet you never asked to exist on… and society immediately hits you with: “Okay, now go earn the right to eat, sleep, rest, and have shelter.” Like… zoom out for a second. We’re floating on a rock in infinite space and we created a game where you have to spend most of your life working just to not starve or freeze to death. The whole concept is actually insane when you think about it.

Okay. Go find a piece of land, make your own tools, sow your own crops, and build your own shelter. I can do all of those things without needing anyone else. It takes a lot of effort and time, but I can do it. If I want the shortcut of someone else's time and labor, I pay for it. You don't get to demand MY labor and MY know-how without paying ME for it and then screaming that I'm an oppressive master because I won't work for you for free. My employer pays me for my time and I forgo the hassle of having to deal with all the regulations, laws, licenses, taxes, insurance, and dealing with salesmen that goes into building a trucking company. I also know that the folks running my company are harder to replace than me so I don't begrudge them getting paid more. If I wanted their paychecks, I could learn to fake liking to deal with people and do their job. I don't care to do that so I stay in the truck. The day I stop earning what I am worth is the day I stop driving and go back to working in an office or just live off what I can grow and raise on my land and tell the taxman to take it in eggs or to buzz off.

@GKMasterson @MetamateDaz "I would suggest you sell yourself to it as a pet" ......the problem with that is we are all slaves to the system someone else created. Of course you have to expend energy to live ...but not to give the masters a better life.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr.
SENATOR JOHN KENNEDY: "It strikes me as breathtakingly ironic that that the people who are screaming so loudly about President Trump's decision to audit federal spending, are the very same people who wanted to hire 80,000 new IRS agents with guns to audit the American people." FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING

Reading scores have absolutely tanked since 2015 while spending per student skyrocketed. Mississippi saw the biggest jumps without spending more. They’re still near the bottom nationally. They just went back to phonics, trained teachers in real methods, and quit passing 3rd graders who couldn’t read. TLDR: schools don’t need more money and politicians and teachers unions are leeches and grifters who don’t give a crap about your children.

U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith
Each year, Memorial Day calls us back to what matters most: the men and women who laid down their lives for our freedom. Their sacrifice was an act of courage and a gift that has shaped every generation of Americans. Let us live in a way that reflects the values they defended – with gratitude, purpose, and with a commitment to never take our liberty for granted.

Probably not. We tend to take the easiest path. Only weirdos like me like to try the hard path, mostly out of curiosity of "can I make it work?" That's why I'm a trucker who knows how to live and build the tools to make tools all the way from Stone Age to Iron Age technology. I can knap flint, do blacksmithing, and basic pottery. If we do hit a true EOTWAWKI situation, I'll be okay as long as I survive the event itself. ;) I already do okay when I decide to walk the backlot of the truck stop and make myself a wood sorrel and dandelion salad instead of paying for overpriced food in the c-store.

@GKMasterson @MetamateDaz Was just discussing this morning… if we all had unlimited funds, nobody would work… So we would have no food and nothing would be manufactured unless people decided to work just for the fun of it. Would we work if we didn’t need to?

That's fine. Then OP is free to go exist in a manner in which humans existed for most of their time on Earth when we didn't have "jobs" that made us do "work." Hunter-gatherer cultures still exist. The difference is that OP will scream "that's not what I meant!!!" because OP wants to live without EFFORT. Without having to lift a finger. Where everything is handed to them without them having to pay even the price of chewing. On the other hand, you could drop my truck-driving butt in the middle of the desert and I would not waste a minute of my time crying about unfairness or inequality. I'd immediately start putting the knowledge of how to find water, how to tap cacti for it, how to avoid dying due to preventable reasons, how to make fire, and how to knapp arrowheads and spearheads to good use. I'd have secured food, shelter, and the means to acquire more and better while OP was still screaming that life isn't fair.

@Sofia50020Sofia And, just like that, banning cousin marriage has become popular across the South and all of Appalachia while allowing it will become the cause du jour in New York, California, and other liberal enclaves.

Muslims in Florida are reportedly outraged and threatening to leave the state if Gov. Ron DeSantis bans cousin marriage. “Cousin marriage is part of our culture. Banning it would be Islamophobia. We will have no choice but to leave Florida!” Thoughts?

@unvackist @MetamateDaz I didn't say government was free. You did. I'm going to follow the old ./ rule and DNFTT since you can't seem to remember what you said and seem equally unable to understand sarcasm.

So I can quit paying my taxes, then. Cool. I guess that means that Bezos and Musk can stop paying theirs, too. No need to keep paying into a government system since it just exists for free and needs nothing from the rest of us to support it. I'll try that next tax season and let you know how it went for me. /s
