In stark contrast with Maine’s stalled, ugly trans sanctuary bill, Utah’s legislature passed beautiful bathroom and DEI-abolishing bills late last week, by wide, veto-proof margins. The bathroom bill passed 28-7 in Utah’s Senate, for example. ...

On Friday the legislature passed its “bathroom bill,” HB257, which makes the state’s legal definitions of “female” and “male” very simple: it’s birth sex. That’s it. It also criminalizes intentional adult use of the wrong sex bathroom — including any changing room — as lewdness, voyeurism or trespassing.

Most particularly, the people who have not surrendered their reason to the Woke-Marxist mind-fuck that calls itself “progressivism” have had enough of the purposeful inflow of something like ten-thousand fake asylum-seekers a day across the border, mostly men, a lot of them from China, and many more of them mutts from faraway lands where Jihad is the order of the day — meaning the crusade to exterminate the people of Western Civ. We’re supposed to be okay with that.

This deliberate, treasonous policy was rightfully declared an “invasion” last week by the Governor of Texas, requiring the human wave to be met with real force, not the welcome wagon that the federal border patrol has been turned into. The result so far is a real-live Mexican stand-off between the regime in Washington and the state of Texas, joined by twenty-five other sympathetic US states willing to send men and matériel to seal the border.

None of this is reported in Monday morning’s New York Times, by the way, though you can read Is Dying Your Hair Bad for Your Health there. Nor will you read about the caravan of American truckers striking out from all points around the country to “peacefully protest and pray” at the border while Texas attempts to settle its hash with “Joe Biden.” Nor will you read about the uprising of European farmers blocking highways to protest ruinous EU rules on food imports, diesel fuel prices, carbon emissions inanity, and, of course, the officially-enabled tide of Africans and jihadists flooding into EU member states. ...

So, now I will tell you where all this is actually going: “Joe Biden” will seize an excuse to declare a national emergency and subject the US to some manner of martial law.

The excuse could be an outbreak of violence in the quarrel between the states and the feds over the border. Or it could be a widening of the war in the Middle East, a direct confrontation with Iran that would draw in Russia and Turkey and kickoff World War Three, a war we would have an excellent shot at losing, considering our DEI-ravaged, over-vaxxed army, our obsolete naval carrier groups that can be sunk by hypersonic missiles, and our depleted reserves of armaments already fobbed off by Ukraine and, lately, given to Israel in the Gaza campaign to destroy Hamas. If such a war didn’t set off a world-ending exchange of nukes, it would at least collapse the economies of Europe and America and, with that, many governments, including possibly ours. And what role might all those recently-arrived illegal aliens play in such a fiasco? Any way you cut it, we’d be in for chaos and hardship.

Or, if we somehow avert major war, “Joe Biden” can try the national emergency ploy when the much-heralded (by the WHO) “Disease X” trots onstage. (And we must ask whether that will just be a delayed side-effect of the mRNA vaccine deaths?) Ultimately, the purpose of any national emergency at this moment in history, whatever prompts it, will be to suspend the 2024 elections. The Democratic Party has gone so completely off-the-rails psychologically that it will do anything to avert losing control of the government.

The Lawfare cases aimed at knocking Donald Trump off the game-board were assigned to corrupt and stupid prosecutors who are botching their jobs in perfect sequence. They are already baking the cake for Fani Willis’s farewell office party in Georgia, and Jack Smith is being undermined daily by the emergent truth about government’s role in fomenting the J6 riot. The ridiculous judgment rendered last week in the E. Jean Carroll defamation charade, is certain to be reversed on appeal. Note the assembled tweets below attributed to Ms. Carroll’s “X” account and draw your own conclusions about her character, especially her sexual proclivities. (By the way, Judge Lewis Kaplan ruled them inadmissible as evidence for Mr. Trump’s defense.)




Now, where the next national emergency or some kind of martial law is concerned, the catch is that at least half of America will refuse to comply with diktats coming out of Blob Central. They’ve had enough trips laid on them. The government has been flirting dangerously with the loss of legitimacy as the disastrous “Joe Biden” term grinds on, but this would really ice it. Whatever other tragic consequences follow, it would be the end of our constitutional republic, and history will install “Joe Biden” in the Hall of Infamy as the man who killed it.

https://bailiwicknews.substack.com/p/legal-challenges-that-can-terminate

Legal challenges that can terminate the ‘public health emergencies’ kill box programs and revoke the other ‘emergency’ powers wielded by the federal executive branch for 90+ years ...

States should nullify those federal laws, and also repeal their own state quarantine and 'public health emergency' management laws (MSEHPA).

It's important to understand that the seven statutes listed in the draft are the foundational laws for the 'public health emergency'-predicated mass murder programs that have become much more visible and better-understood since January 2020:

Quarantine and Inspection, 42 USC §264 to 272

Chemical and Biological Warfare Program, 50 USC §1511 to 1528

Licensing of Biological Products, 42 USC §262 to 263

Public health emergencies, 42 USC § 247d to 247d-12

National Vaccine Program and National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, 42 USC §300aa-1 to 300aa-34

Expanded access to unapproved therapies and diagnostics program, 21 USC §360bbb to 360bbb-8d

National All-Hazards Preparedness for Public Health Emergencies, 42 USC §300hh-1 to 300hh-37

Nullification of those seven federal statutes would terminate the PHE mass murder programs in the states that nullify them. ...

In my view, the necessary sequence is

State governments nullify (or challenge) federal acts.

President and Congress counter-attack by filing suit asking SCOTUS to void the nullification acts or rule on the state challenge.

SCOTUS rules.

From there, two possible paths open up.

If SCOTUS rules the US Constitution as supreme law of the land prohibits federal acts and programs to kill and steal from the population, then mass murder programs terminate and restoration of constitutional rule of law can begin.

If SCOTUS rules that the US Constitution as supreme law of land allows federal acts and programs to kill and steal from the population, then states understand that SCOTUS, president and Congress are at war with the people, secede and begin to properly defend their state sovereignty, state populations and territory.

•“Preventing” pandemics is one of the most lucrative areas in medicine. Unfortunately, despite all the money this industry has received, it has only made the problem worse. This is because most pandemics are the result of lab leaks from “preventative” research, and because whenever an effective solution is discovered for a pandemic, it gets suppressed by the industry since so many business interests depend upon profiting off of an “unsolvable emergency.”

•The way COVID-19 was handled was so egregious that it woke much of the public up to this grift. Because of that, the pandemic-industrial complex is now facing an existential risk to its business model (since much of the general population no longer is willing to go along with it).

•To solve this problem, a covert WHO treaty has been put together behind the scenes which gives these international health agencies absolute control over anything related to an alleged “health emergency,” and in turn enshrines each awful policy which was conducted throughout COVID-19 (e.g., mass censorship or the promotion of dangerous and experimental vaccines).

•A grass roots activist movement has accomplished something remarkable—despite the fact every single large organization has pushed the pandemic through, in only a few short months, those activists have begun to derail that treaty. I believe stopping this power grab is one of the most important issues of our time, and this article was written to explain exactly what they are doing so that each of us can help be a part of making sure this abhorrent treaty is never ratified.

I don't know how to effectively get to those, but I agree with the goals.

Transgender Virginia legislator storms out after being called "sir" by Lt. Governor Winsome Sears ...

Here's footage of the incident...

I don't think I have to point out how silly this is, but I'll go ahead anyway:

First of all, Danica Roem is, in fact, a man. It's not wrong to call a man "sir." There's just nothing wrong with that. It's totally normal.

Second of all, even by the twisted logic of transgenderism, this is a silly little overreaction. "Misgendering" is not a war crime. If you mistakenly call a man "ma'am," for instance, it would be absurd for that man to storm out of the room in a little hissy fit over it. It happens sometimes. You shake your head, chuckle about it, and then move on.

(But, again, it wasn't a mistake. Roem is a man. "Sir" is appropriate here. Anything else is a lie.) ...

Never cave to the Woke Monster.

People Are Dying The Senate Doesn't Care
Senator Babet, Posted October 19, 2023

https://phillipaltman.substack.com/p/the-tide-is-turning

WELL-DONE SENATOR BABET
By the narrowest of margins, the Australian Senate has acknowledged that there is a need to inquire into the unexplained Excess Deaths following the Covid-19 “vaccine” rollouts. Senator Babet states in his United Party communication of today:

“My successful motion read as follows - The Senate acknowledges that:

(a) the concerning number of excess deaths observed in Australia in 2021 and 2022 has continued into 2023 as evidenced by all-cause provisional mortality data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics; and

(b) there is a need for further inquiry as to the reasons for these excess deaths.

The majority of senators agreed with my motion with 31 supporting and 30 opposing. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time any parliament in the world has admitted that excess deaths are worthy of inquiry.

But can you believe this? The Labor Party and the Greens actually voted against my motion. Imagine a government not interested in why so many of their fellow Australians are dying!

Patrick says

Because Labor is not for the working man and Greens are not for the environment. They are both for big government control and want no second guessing of government mandates.

But Governor Winsome did cave. Apology on top of apology.

Riley Gaines is proving she practices what she preaches.
You may remember when last year Gaines offered to start compensating female athletes who opt out of competing against transgender competitors, advocating for fair competition in sports.

Today, she is putting her money where her mouth is.

At the European Pool Championships, a prominent female player, Kim O'Brien, forfeited her spot in the women's final because she would rather drop out than compete against a man in a women's tournament.

Her opponent was supposed to be male player Harriet Haynes.

Gaines wasted no time in stepping up to support O'Brien, declaring her the rightful recipient of the prize money she missed out on by choosing not to engage in the match. ...

And we can't forget that our man Seth Dillion offered to match Gaines' contribution and even double it!

From the tweet:

Kim O’Brien had to make a stand but it is incredibly sad that she saw no other solution.
Why?
Because sports leaders don’t know how to say NO to male invasion of the women’s game.

This is true of most women in general (except when it comes to rejecting guys) - they have real trouble saying "no" to panderers and grifters, including most politicians.

I had to "be the man" and say NO to any of my wife's impecunious relatives asking for money early in our marriage. I think she gets it now, but even so, I often have to be the one to say "NO."

Maybe it's like killing - the first time saying NO is the hardest. It just gets easier the more often you do it.

What about travel bans? This one’s trickier, as there isn’t really much possibility of a parallel system as there is with finance. However, if air travel starts just getting closed off to large numbers of people because the state has decided that they’re ‘right wing extremists’, airports become pretty useless to those people. The same thing is true if the lunatic carbon passport scheme is enacted, by means of which the Regime intends to essentially eliminate recreational air travel for the plebs. Meanwhile, airports are crucial to the industrial-scale importation of migrants. Thus, we would arrive at a situation where airports are of practically no use to the general population, but are still of strategic importance to the Regime. Most airports are connected to their host cities by a small number of on- and off-ramps. What are the economic implications of vehicular blockades of major international airports?

Substack is of course useful as a neutral platform with a commitment to an open free speech policy, which it has so far been fairly solid on9. Independence from advertising revenue backstops the platform’s stance towards speech neutrality by removing temptation to cuck to advertisers. The platform was absolutely essential during the lockdowns, being one of the only places in the Western internet where information was not being ruthlessly censored on behalf of the Branch Covidian virus botherers. There’s also very little room for algorithmic manipulation: while Notes certainly uses an algorithm, the meat of the platform – the articles, stories, essays, poems, and research papers that writers send to their subscribers – goes out via email the moment it’s published. ...

There’s no reason that this business model has to be limited to the written word, and indeed, it isn’t. Neo-patronage is already at work in podcasts, video production, and probably music (I haven’t checked, but it seems obvious). It turns out that creatives can support themselves if they can find a thousand or so fans who feel passionately enough about their work that they’re willing to throw them a beer’s worth of dollars every month10. On an 8 gigaHuman planet, of whom 1.5 gigaHumans speak English, finding that many supporters is very doable. Every philosopher, artist, musician, writer, animator, journalist, scholar, researcher, scientist, and entertainer who can make this transition slips out from under the yoke of the legacy institutions. They are no longer beholden to advertisers, editors, peer-reviewers, or human resources. They answer only to their micro-audiences. As such, they become extremely difficult for the system to control.

And if the creators aren’t being controlled, the culture isn’t being controlled.

https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/politics/2024/02/26/tennessee-house-passes-bill-to-ban-pride-flags-in-public-schools/72744479007/

A bill that would ban the display of pride flags and ideological flags in Tennessee public schools ― but does not explicitly prohibit display of the Nazi or Confederate flags in schools ― passed the full state House on Monday.

House members passed House Bill 1605 on a party-line vote of 70 to 24, with one member present, not voting.

The bill, sponsored by Rep. Gino Bulso, R-Brentwood, would prohibit the display of any flags that “represent a political viewpoint, including but not limited to, a partisan, racial, sexual orientation, gender, or other ideological viewpoint.”

A companion bill could be up for a final vote in the Senate as early as Thursday, having passed the Senate Education in a 5 to 4 vote last week.

Patrick says

Best law would be similar to what a Muslim city council passed in a Minnesota town - No flags on public property except the US Flag and the State Flag. Put the Fag Flag or Confederate Flag on your own private property.

https://www.anarchonomicon.com/p/short-take-public-choice-theory-and

Concentrated minority interests will ALWAYS defeat dispersed collective majority interests in any system of government/institution that doesn't terminate in an individual owner.

This is basic public choice theory. ...

The most degenerate will set the tone of sexual politics because they're the slim minority that cares the most and has the most to gain, whereas normal people have 10k other concerns and can't dedicated their lives to defending normality. Same with farm policy, it will always be set by the narrow concentrated interest of corporate food producers and recipients of subsidized government food stuff: This is what's happened to America's food supply, it's what happened to Rome's before the fall. Down the list of every policy.

Every individual item will be controlled not by the public good or even majority will, but by the narrowest interest that can make it their life's work and either get rich, or lead a life of sloth by controlling it.

Homelessness policy is not set by the businesses and people who live in the areas destroyed by them but by the activists and social workers who get more funding the worse the problem becomes, and who will fight to the death to prevent you from arresting or forcing out the addicts, because they're part of the social Worker industrial complex and they'll lose money if the homelessness problem gets better or stops hurting normal people.

... likewise women voting was a non-issue since almost all women were married and their husband had a vote, and they both shared all their economic and property interests.

But the Government discovered they could mine the votes of Shrewish unmarried women (who don’t just vote like the men in their family), then the government discovered they could start regulating every workplace for how it treated female employees to mine more power whilst giving out scraps to that concentrated interest, then it discovered it could do the same for homosexuals, then it discovered that applying the same “anti-discriminatory” principles it could do the same for the Trans, and is now slowly creating a eunuch class of commissars who wield anti-discrimination laws to control the regulatory life of every company. ...

This is what every environmental and safety regulation is doing… The government rarely actually helps the environment, but by god will it make you hire an accessor whose entire career and 6 figure income comes from regulatory fiat, and my god will that accessor tell you the only way to comply is to hire a half dozen other 6 figure specialists. And every one of them will organize and fight to the death to keep this grift going, whilst the customer who actually buys the good that’s not 50cents more expensive? They’re getting fucked this way by 10,000 different government grifts. they can’t organize to fight any of this, doing so would take hundreds of hours of research that in the end, if they won in DC, would just save them personally 50 cents, but across an economy and a million grifts, this is hundreds of billions of dollars.

This is why governments cannot ever be reformed except via a dictator who's Junta forces out the democratic corruption, takes ownership of the entire system, and hunts this stuff down because it’s now hurting HIS bottom line and economy by billions, or via collapse.

Either the Public Choice problem is finally solved via someone gaining enough power to become the owner/operator of the new regime, or it is solved by the system collapsing and lots of little owner operators tearing it apart into their own little kingdoms.

Perhaps there is a theoretical solution from game theory though.

If everyone who lost that 50 cents to grift could find an organization capable of resisting the grift and donate 10 cents to it, the problem would get solved.

It's a matter of:

1. finding the people being fucked by government (not hard to do)
2. convincing them of the need to resist and get their money back (should also not be that hard)
3. creating and funding an organization to oppose each grift (the hard part)
4. keeping that organization from getting compromised by the grifters (perhaps even harder)

Ideas?

Patrick says

If everyone who lost that 50 cents to grift could find an organization capable of resisting the grift and donate 10 cents to it, the problem would get solved.

You would have to find people that lost that 50 cents who are not making more money from other government grifts. A grocer who resents the costs of USDA rules on his foodstuffs, but also has a large share of customers using USDA run SNAP/EDT.

I've been asked twice how I became a GOP state delegate. on PDW. Here's how I did it. I hope to be selected as a national delegate as well.

This will be long so my apologies.

Join your county GOP central committee.
Shut up, listen and take notes to identify MAGA vs RINO
Become indispensable
Begin openly opposing RINOs
Recruit MAGA allies. (ask them to come to the meetings)
Make MAGA the majority of the committee. I'll give the details on how I did this and got selected as a state GOP delegate. Join the GOP central committee for your county. A simple internet search will tell you when and where they meet. Go to EVERY meeting keep your mount shut and listen so you can identify the MAGA vs RINO. (take notes). Volunteer for every job. Sell the tacos at the farmer's market, clean the floor of the committee room and the county fair GOP booth. Flip burgers, stuff envelopes. I did it all. When you work with people, they tend to say things they wouldn't say in the meetings. This helps to identify them. Do all the crappy jobs. I spent a year volunteering for every fundraiser and event. I became indispensable. I began to speak up in the meetings, openly supporting MAGA policies and opposing the RINOs.by questioning them. Begin recruiting allies. I asked friends to join the committee. Fortunately for me, a former New Yorker "mega MAGA man" joined. He was a natural leader. (I am not. I know my strengths and weaknesses. I am more of a worker bee.) Soon the RINOs on the committee get frustrated and quit attending. (Typical and weak as expected) Committee becomes majority MAGA and when primary season comes around and the committee meets to select delegates, I throw my hat in the ring and get selected.
It's hard work and not quite as simple as it sounds but, worth it. Thanks to Tony and his leadership, it was easier for me.
