In the 2024 presidential election, Timothy Mellon was the largest individual contributor to the campaigns of both Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., serving as a lifeline to Kennedy’s courageous bid to challenge Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination while also starting a health revolution in America. Mellon gave a stunning $151 million to ... Read more

COVIDmania wasn’t a public health response. It was a societal psychotic break that revealed the new operating system: technocracy—predation with excellent branding. In this episode of The Independents, Carla Gericke takes a hard look at what actually happened during the COVID era: the fear campaigns, the censorship, the expert worship, the suspension of basic rights, ...

There are a number of current issues bouncing about in the public domain that are actually either democrat party talking points, foreign influence operations, or both. Most are both, since they share the same agenda. Stop Trump, Make America Weak Again (MAWA), and put us back on the slippery slope of globalist control. ATM to ... Read more

Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for, and the desire to bring in some fresh blood at every level of government may not be working out as hoped. Because we do not have term limits except in a few Governor situations, we have a House and Senate that often looks like a ... Read more

In the years before 1763, the British Empire—although in theory a unified entity—was really a federation. The central government in London controlled foreign affairs and the imperial post office. It also regulated trade with foreign countries and among units of the empire. But otherwise, the 13 future American states were largely self-governing. In each, the ... Read more

Today, on your Morning Update, a private citizen is suing the Associated Press (AP) over stories that harmed his business by portraying it as an illegal activity.

Since 1991, Vermont’s only member of the US House of Representatives has been either a socialist who couldn’t run as one (until now) or a Democrat (same difference). It has one district, the entire State of Vermont. You can’t gerrymander that. And despite its open borders and sanctuary city-like leanings, the state is still 93% ... Read more

“It is in the Interest of Tyrants to reduce the People to Ignorance and Vice.” Samuel Adams warned us – tyranny is built on people who lack knowledge and strong morals. That’s because he knew freedom is built on the opposite foundation. “For they cannot live in any Country where Virtue and Knowledge prevail.” He ... Read more

Gender affirming care is one of those left-wing-isms. Without thought or study, you might say, well, a urologist does that for men, and a gynecologist does that for women. No one reading this thinks that is what they mean, but the word “care” is what truly misleads, and “affirming” is completely out of context. You ... Read more

My first ever order of zinc, as a separate nutritional supplement, was in April 2020. At that time, news sites were overflowing with COVID gloom & doom, much of which made no logical sense at all, so I began serious research, which led me to conclude that we needed to supplement our diets with much ...

Maybe this is just another attack on women. After all, they want men to undress in your daughter’s locker room in high school, and to injure your daughter badly on the basketball or volleyball court.

In the midst of unprecedented national division, Republicans and Democrats have apparently found something upon which they agree: that US moral values are “poor.” A May 1-17 Gallup survey offered a sobering assessment of Americans’ negative views of their country’s moral trajectory.
