And yet Trump became part of the swamp, I'm not even a US Citizen but wanted him to win, especially because he was pissing off all the right people here in Western Europe, I thought he had no chance but still was happy when the results came back, although I expected no big change at all.

I now despise the guy for his shilling for the vaxx, I stopped following his Presidency pretty quickly because I realized the POTUS has as much power as our own "leaders", which means close to none, they're just actors, nothing will ever change from voting (or if it does it will be for the worse)..

I think everybody reading your blog knows who rule the world, and it's not politicians.

Haha sorry mate, I'll probably find out about more treasons from the Zion Don that I skipped over, just two more weeks and the Wall will be built and Hillary will be in prison I'm sure !

Absolutely love your Substack my friend, your work is of the utmost quality, I oftentimes wonder how you guys dig up old (and current) info with the state of search engines nowadays (it's not just Google, even Yandex is absolutely subpar while being the least censored that I ever found), the Internet truly is dying (at least the one I knew, not to the goyslop that you can access on your mobile "apps").

Thanks Telimektar, I very much agree that the internet is dying (or really, being intentionally murdered - they can't have the peasants talk to each other and find ways around official propaganda). I use Bing instead of Google, although I hear Yandex is better with less censorship as you say, but none of them are as good as Google was before it was intentionally broken for ideological reasons. Search engines can still be used if one is looking for a specific event that one remembers and if one is willing to dig...

Bing isn't as bad as Google is, but it's still pretty terrible, they're always a small step behind on the censorship but they're following the same guidelines, they're just always behind by a year or a few months, they were still OKish a few years back.

I have used every search engine that I can think of, they're all terrible, Yandex is the least censored and Mojeek can sometimes give a few interesting results, but even when searching for complete normie things search engines are awful, you either don't find what you're looking for, they all have a very limited number of results, most directing you to big corporate sites, Reddit or Wikipedia or the Fandom wikis (Jimmy Wales being a founder of that company as well, complete coincidence I'm sure...)

Yandex still has the most interesting algorithm out there IMO, but it's limited to 25 pages of results and is full of those absolutely horrible Yandex captchas, the founders have an interesting Early Life too, but that's not surprising unfortunately..

But you're right none are as good as Google was before around say 2016 and the Trump campaign and victory, then they began censoring more and more and more (worldwide too) until we've reached the crap we have today that even Liberal or apolitical normies on Reddit or Youtube find unusable.

Great job recapping the wild and crazy ride that was the 2016 election cycle!

Thanks, the 2016 election post was fun to write. His presidency (part 2) is a much more technical post given the realities of Spygate, where the FBI was weaponized to destroy Trump at every turn...

That Trump was a Democrat isn't that surprising. The populist quadrant was outside of both the Democratic and Republican zones prior to Trump. Trump has more in common with Jimmy Carter than Mitt Romney.

Trump used right wing language and Mike Pence as his VP to shore up support from the Republican Party. He had to sound Right because he wasn't Right in the sense of National Review or Forbes.

Note how similar Trump's Oprah interview was to what H. Ross Perot would pitch four years later. (The big difference is that Perot was a deficit hawk as well.)

Yes, one of the correct things Trump did was realizing he could not run as a third party in a two party system -- all he could try to do was co-opt one of the existing parties...

But interestingly, he was in some ways humble in his takeover. While he ran as a Reform Party candidate, he gave the old Republican Party a good bit of its wish list. He gave them real Supreme Court justices and enough tax reform to noticeably shorten form 1040.

It is obvious to everyone....

The Republic / Representative Democracy, has failed.

We say it has failed because it does not “promote the general welfare, and provide for the common defense” in ways in which we are in agreement.

And because nothing is more important than our national sovereignty, nor is anything so dear to our sacred posterity, we simply must adjust the mechanism of our government or finish the slide into disintegration.

The ball is in our court; since the authority for government comes from The Citizens.

So… how do we get there from here?

We now have to stand up and inform our representatives that they have broken their Oaths and failed in their Duty to the office in which they were entrusted. They are in Breach, and now must either accept our help by adding the Fourth Branch, The Citizens Branch to our government or Vacate the building.

Because Citizenship, true Citizenship, is not about writing letters to elected officials or voting some good person into office.

Citizenship is about the Ratification or Annulment of each line of every law, rule, regulation and supreme court decision on the books or that is on the docket waiting to be turned into law, policy and taxes.

Nothing short of this is going to ameliorate the present situation, nor will we get to the Stars without it.

During the 1992 Presidential campaign, Ross Perot observed that: "a general lack of accountability among elected officials and those in the bureaucracy is the one specific reason that the people of America suffered…. and our only means of correction is to inspect their work and hold them accountable.”

Mr. Perot went on to note that this can easily be done with computer programs.

He called it: THE ELECTRONIC TOWNHALL.

“It is only logical that it will become our Fourth Branch of Government”, he said.

Objective reality:

the voting members of the US Congress and the State Legislatures do not have enough time to read, comprehend or debate any of the laws they vote on. They vote 100 times a day, every five minutes, while in session.

Approximate absolute facts:

Every day that the Congress and Legislatures are in session 100 new bills are introduced and distributed.

The representatives are given two weeks to review the bills before they are brought up for The Vote.

Two weeks into the session they begin voting on the Laws that were previously introduced, while newer laws are introduced.

Many of these bills are in excess of two thousand pages.

The arithmetic demonstrates that the elected representative does not have the time to even read the name of the Law much less the content of it.

Since the Representatives cannot evaluate 200 thousand pages of law speak per day, they vote the way their Party advisors tell them to vote.

This demonstrates that Representative government does not exist.

Thus, they have forfeited their delegated obligations to us, The Citizens.

And the only way to prevent these over worked and fallible people from making even more tragic mistakes, from which we, and the rest of the world, might never recover is to include ourselves in the final decision making process.

The Electronic Congress

How it works:

Before a new law, tax, or expenditure can be put on the books it must first be Ratified by the Citizens.

Existing laws can be Annulled by the same super majority required to Ratify them.

This program can be applied to every level of government and will ultimately solve every problem we have.

To prevent chaos, the basic law, our Constitution and Bill of Rights, would be exempt from review.

Mr. Perot speculated that the Founding Fathers would probably have done the same had the technology been available in their day.

Just imagine:

With a new understanding we will also be able to accommodate new proposals initiated by us, The Citizens, for program and infrastructure improvements.

We, The People, could actually direct the priorities and review the progress of the major agencies like the: CDC and NIH as well as the libraries, school boards and local police departments.

If our government truly is of the people, by the people and for the people then this is the only way forward.

How to implement it:

We talk about it until it is done.

Concerned Citizens could have AI parse a recent law or Supreme Court ruling into its actionable elements, apply the Ratify or Annul Questionnaire, then distribute the links.

Can I make money with this?

Of course, you can. Use AI to parse the laws you find most egregious into their component pieces. And then have it build the ballot / questionnaire along with some demographic background to make the game especially interesting. Charge a $1 per voter per law to deliver the results of the poll to the government officials and watch the evolution in real time.

The Electronic Townhall becomes the means by which the Authority of the Citizens is used to Ratify or Annul the Propositions of Government.

Ask the local school board for their agenda items, have AI parse the actionable elements, create a questionnaire, distribute it to the concerned citizens and then evaluate the results.

When Human Beings made in the image of God can see the results of their noblest and most sober thoughts, at such a scale, then there will be the moment where Our Benevolence and Good Will shall

overcome Evil and then we can all live happily ever after.

Ross Perot publicly promised that if the People of America would elect him to The Presidency, he would give us The Electronic Townhall.

The Fourth Branch of Government will allow us to go from Chaos to Prosperity and a Life Worth Living … until the end of time.

We were created by God and in the image of God; we are human beings, not animals in a pen.

I liked Perot, too bad he withdrew after being presented with blackmail instead of fighting it. When he re-entered he had lost momentum and it was too late...

You mean they did not steal votes from him too?

I have always said, and still say, that she lost that election a lot more than he won it. It was not a great groundswell of support for "MAGA," indeed he lost the popular vote. What it was, rather, was a repudiation of her, the most unlikeable presidential candidate in my lifetime, and that's saying something. It was handed to her on a platter, yet she couldn't close the deal, complete with the worst campaign slogan in American history which perfectly encapsulated her smug entitled arrogance.

The blind spot of the "establishment" and of her campaign, and fatal flaw in her candidacy from the beginning, was her likeability, which had never, in all her many years in the public eye, been high. She had never breached 50% approval, ever. So what you had was a great mass of voters who had made up their minds about her many years before, were never going to vote for her, and could never be persuaded, even before she declared her candidacy. I should know, I was one of them. These people weren't necessarily enthralled by or supportive of or even aware of anything Trump was saying, they were just voting for whoever could keep her from winning.

Thanks to this blind spot, the regime was so overconfident that it failed to fortify an election that could have been "won" that way as the one 4 years later was. This blind spot was the product of the regime's rampant toadyism, in which you are no longer allowed to "speak truth to power," rather only telling power what it wants to hear. And so it went for the Hillary campaign.

One thing I remember from back then was Hillary giving a speech that was basically a road map of their plans going forward. This was a speech where she conflated far right, nazis, conspiracy theorists, and directly called out Alex Jones.

And that's around time they started going hard against Assange, AJ, memers, the censorship kicked into high gear, etc.

It's good to review a transcript of it once in a while, especially to avoid hearing her voice.
