Th struggle of the past and the great future to come

In honor and observance of what might be the last celebration of Independence Day before this fight of all fights has come to an end, let’s remember how much we’ve suffered, the victories we’ve won, why we fight, and the battles ahead.

For eight long years, we’ve battled against the largest and most well-funded freedom-suppressing machine in history. Long before Trump’s year of capitulation, many of us in the know regarding the corruption of our world felt alone, tired, and disillusioned. In early 2015, no one could have anticipated that a new hope was on the horizon. It seemed like there was nothing to do but tread water on the rising tide of a growing technocratic deep state that continued to invade the sanctity of our lives. Little did we know that a man who truly cared about the people, our constitution, and the freedoms promised by our founding fathers was about to enter the fray.

To many of us, Donald J. Trump seemed like just another rich-boy billionaire who wanted to get his piece of the pie. Others knew that he wasn’t your average New York-born and raised real estate developer. Still others knew who he really was, helping in ways we still have yet to discover.

Trump had a plan—a mission—that was going to change everything. However, he had to do the unthinkable—he had to wage a political and media war against the most well-developed, funded, and sophisticated intelligence agency-backed media monolith of arguably all time. This apparatus ruined lives and reputations, as a matter of course. How could an audacious man like Trump stand a chance?

I remember the start of the 2016 election season, when Trump descended the golden escalator on June 16, 2015. The Simpsons seemed to call it that, which wasn’t necessarily a good sign. The Simpsons also seemed to call things like 9/11, so what did this Trump prophecy mean exactly?

At the time, I personally thought he was just another wealthy scumbag with presidential ambitions, hardly the first to run for the highest office in the land. Then, Trump began to secure decisive victories in the debates. And the media, in a strange yet all-too-familiar lockstep, began their coordinated attacks against him. I started to wonder, “Is this man possibly not part of the elite club of globalist parasites?”

An Echo of Ron Paul

In 2012, Ron Paul, a man of actual integrity and sense—at least in my eyes—ran to be the leader of the free world. (As an aside, that title for POTUS never made that much sense to me since the world hardly felt or feels free, but what do I know?)

It was during the 2012 election season that I first saw the propaganda machine that is the mainstream media initiate a synchronized effort to destroy then-candidate Paul’s reputation, which effectively robbed him of the shot he had at the White House. It worked then, and surely it would work in 2016 with Trump, who was less experienced, more brash, and just a B-grade celebrity. But then, like with Ron Paul, I started thinking that Trump might not be just another globalist hack.

At this point, I was well aware of a great many eyebrow-raising pieces of history, like the JFK assassination, the Tuskegee experiment, and 9/11, to cite just a few examples. I also knew about the Frank Church committee hearings, where the mockingbird media was exposed. This marriage between the media and CIA-like entities is a sordid match made in freedom hell, where intelligence agencies regularly molest the minds of the masses through their Weekend at Bernie’s media puppets.

As Trump was getting bashed by the media for the “grab em by the p***y” Access Hollywood tapes, his small hands, and anything else they could throw at him, I remember thinking, “Boy, this feels like it’s happened before with Ron Paul.” The media was already losing credibility in their efforts to smear Trump. In my eyes, this placed him in a different category of candidate. Anyone who is attacked this badly by a media that fails to report actual corruption, like the Franklin scandal, or run cover for Wall Street bailouts is probably a better option than Clinton.

Despite Trump’s popularity, as the 2016 election drew near, it seemed that yet another deep-state stooge, Hillary Clinton, was about to take office and destroy America. Similar to Obama’s election as the first black man to hold the presidency, people chose Clinton primarily for her novelty value, despite her open corruption and scandals. Poll after poll, she emerged as the decisive winner.

By this time, by any real standard, Trump had already won every debate he had participated in, both in the primaries and against Clinton. He was already kicking ass and taking names better than anyone else before him. He made many of his Republican primary competitors seem like fools while gaining favor with a growing body of respectable people. No one but Trump could call Rosie O’Donnell a “fat pig,” have every mainstream media outlet on earth go after him, and still manage to gain clout with the American people and even the world.

On election night, I remember the Fox News pundits with uneasiness on their faces as Trump took state after state. They couldn’t believe their eyes. I knew Trump was an underdog, and that was enough, but it was when I could palpably detect the media’s shock and horror, not to mention Hillary Clinton’s, that I realized Trump wasn’t just a surprise winner; he was something much more powerful.

Before his 2016 victory, I remember hearing stories in the summer of 2015 that Trump was actually a good guy, working with other good guys who had woven themselves into the various circles of seedy power in our world. These good guys, or patriots, as I like to call them, managed to go undetected for years, waiting for the right moment, and right man, to begin an operation to—as Trump refers to it—Make America Great Again.

I recount this story because it’s easy to forget how dark things seemed back then and how much of a shock he was to everyone at the time. Here we are, nearly eight years since the 2016 Trump win, and he hasn’t stopped fighting; even seemingly as every tool of the dark arts has been cast against him, he continues on.

Only a Taste But It Was Enough

The dreams of a truly free and prosperous world have kept America alive for over 250 years. These dreams changed the world, even though, ever since, this same world has descended further into tyranny as the globalists gained power in the early 20th century.

The visions of a free and prosperous America fell largely into obscurity until, eight years ago, Trump won the election, and the promise of making America great again actually seemed possible. If anyone could do it, it was Donald Trump, who had so amazingly proven all of us, even his enemies.

In the face of all that was thrust against him, the world did actually get better, “by a lot.” But we knew things were still far from perfect, and I think Trump did too. He knew, like many of us did, that the gauntlet had been laid and the globalists weren’t going to go quietly into the night. They were, and still are, fighting like the cornered animals that they are. “How dare he,” they no doubt think to themselves, “that this disrespectful man come in and ruin our carefully laid plans.”

As humanity seemed to crawl out of feudalistic tyranny, where food, water, and shelter were more abundant than ever, it also came at a terrible price. Let’s take a moment to consider how awful things have gotten since, at some unrecorded date in history, “some very nasty people” infested the halls of power in almost every nation. I believe a major movement towards this decline began in the mid-19th century, but arguably the real beginning was much before that. As the quality of life in our world seemed to improve, freedom and tyranny became more cold, industrialized, and inhuman.

Our food has become increasingly toxic as it becomes more available; our education systems have turned into tools of mass indoctrination as they are easier to access; our economy has been ruined and weaponized as it’s more abundant than ever; our reputation as good-hearted Americans has been destroyed; and our lives have only gotten worse and more demanding over the past 100 years, despite the technological advances developed since the first industrial revolution so long ago.

As much as Trump was able to accomplish, it was only a sliver of what could really be done if the tentacles of undue power and influence were finally dealt with once and for all. Would Trump help make this new and better world possible? Some say not, saying that despite all that we’ve seen, he is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I have to admit that is a possibility, but only a small one in my eyes.

Here’s why.
