NIH CONFIRMS DR. FAUCI BLATANTLY LIED ABOUT GAIN of FUNCTION COMMUNIST CHINA FUNDING
The use by main stream media of the CIA created "conspiracy theorist" smear has finally shown in a classic "that didn't age well" kind of way to have run its course. Now no one can mince words. The truth has been exposed for all to see. The level of danger and evil it us to intentionally make these viruses cross over to humans defies comprehension.
He owes Rand Paul a big apology.

US ARMY WENT WOKE - NOW IS BROKEN - "If Martial Law is Declared - SOLDIER DECLARES AMERICANS WHO WONT STAY INSIDE WHEN TOLD "THE ENEMY"
It's no secret, the U.S. Military is in serious trouble, badly infected with the latest strain of Cultural Marxism. But when I heard this wildly insane soldier declare that whoever she told to shelter in place in a lock-down who resisted was to her "the enemy", and would be dealt with accordingly. After explaining that if Martial Law was declared, the "guns wouldn't be pointed at another nation... but at YOU!
This has gone on long enough. When will Americans finally have enough?

THE HAMMER of TRUTH DROPS - FAUCI and COMPANY - EMAILS SHOW THEY KNEW and CONSPIRED to IMPLEMENT COVER-UP - Rules For Thee Not for Me
With modern political theater, one can never be too sure what is truth and what is misdirection. While maintaining primarily more conservative leaning beliefs, I have become disillusioned, or perhaps quite healthily have come to my senses and came to realize that government in and of itself has been is, and will likely continue to be the problem. What is the definition of insanity again... well the current unofficial but quite accurate definition if you ask some folks is "to do the same thing over and over again, and expect a different or eventual desirable result". Being quite closer to Libertarian if I had to relate to those without freaking people out by calling it like it more accurately is "Anarchist", only because the modern definition of the word has been so badly decimated by government and corporate media... a word that simply means "no rulers" not "no rules". It has been used now to describe Antifa fascists, unruly mobs who burn out buildings and attempt to take over entire portions of cities, but wait... didn't that effort see the rise of a kingpin thug as "authoritarian in chief"? That is not Anarchy at all. Anarchists in true practice could live together in neighborhoods where community meetings and organization could empower every citizen who is able bodied and willing to form their own militia. They could easily convene a citizens grand jury to indict criminals who violate natural. law, i.e. an offence where there is a victim or damage to private property, or the damaging, poisoning, or destruction of public lands. Everyone would be on an equal footing. No one would rule over your life from 1000 miles away and run agencies like the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, a governmental services corporation, that was unconstitutionally empowered to end up having military style SWAT teams, purport to be being "stewards of the land", having signs on their office walls like "NO MORE MOO IN 92 - CATTLE FREE in 93" while pretending to be operating within the confines of the U.S. Constitution, to spite the fact that they all take the same oath as every other public servant "so called", while using it as toilet paper. Why am I discussing a few unrelated government debacles and joining it with the current story? For damned good reason.
So many separate sub corporations of the
UNITED STATES of AMERICA INC.
This governmental services corporation has been used as a whore. It has been used to grossly overstep bounds, illegally committing felonies that would see any civilian member of the public not fortunate to be in the upper echelon of the ruling class like Hunter Biden, thrown in prison for a very long time. Hunter, the poster child for the "blatantly guilty but untouchable.
I spent a year in prison fighting for my freedom after taking a hard stand in defense of innocent ranchers. And Joe Biden leaves billions of secure and top secret technology behind giving aid and comfort to our enemies. Someone may use some common sense ...
When your government sees hardworking desert ranchers, in no need of assistance by any land management militarized corporation as "the bad guys"... one might want to ask why we just handed over billions in Black-hawk helos, battle tanks, weapons, missiles, and the top secret tech that will likely be taken down to the last screw by the Chinese and Russians. One might want to inquire why the American people have not yet begun to convene tribunals. No insurrection. The evidence voluminous.

Frustrating Are The Times When You See the Gay Rights Movement Saturated by Marxism - The Tool of Those Who Use All Their Victims to Sow Division

RTR Truth Media
Republic Broadcasting Network
They are completely “as KGB self described defector Yuri Bezmanov said about those whose lives have been programmed by Soviet “Active Measures”, that they are simply unable to come to a sensible conclusion. They can not see that their reaction is the utter example of everything they say they “actually hate” which is bigotry. There are no greater bigots than those who try to smear others while doing to others what they don’t what have done to themselves. There is no room for ...

RTR TRUTH MEDIA AND MANY OTHERS VINDICATED by FAUCI EMAIL EXPOSURE - We Await Apologies from the TECHNOPOLY for DEFAMING AND CENSORING ALL of US
We at RTR Truth Media have been defamed by YouTube and censored by nearly all social media entities when our long standing rules here are to only present something as fact when we have the evidence to back that up, and when we give potential analysis based on our experience and existence of circumstantial evidence we are always clear to say that we are not as of yet convinced lacking the smoking gun. We ALWAYS clarify opinion or fact, yet we have had a video of the Texas State House in session, listed on YouTube as UNLISTED as the claims being made in the video we wanted to seriously fact check.
WHILE IN THE PROCESS OF FACT CHECKING WE RECEIVED A STRIKE AND THE VIDEO WAS REMOVED BASED ON - GET THIS LIE - A “COMMUNITY GUIDELINES COMPLAINT” - Would someone like to explain to me how anyone could watch the unlisted video I never gave anyone the link to?
Would someone also like to explain to me how it was that I downloaded the video from official Texas government operations - a video I downloaded from YouTube?
Well along with being completely vindicated about our position against Dr. “should be tried for serial homicide” Fauci, and about Wuhan and the lab were spot on.
As we were being shadowbanned and outright censored, penalized and have not been able to upload videos nearly during the entire plannedemic, these Silicone Valley monopolists of media were silencing is and many others, all
I can say is that each and every entity that engaged in said silencing should rightfully be charged as criminal conspirators lending material support to enemies of the united States.
I will be seriously and deeply considering filing suit against any and all entities that engaged in silencing our voice. And yes, we will in part be arguing 1st Amendment grounds as the infrastructure to the architecture of the internet itself as well as Google, which leads to YouTube, that brazenly accepts massive amounts of cash for political purposes but which clearly has a partisan bias and has demonstrated that the corporation has been and continues to be used as a tool to silence any form of resistance to the Marxist infused political biases it holds. Google is responsible for bringing a subversive destructive ideology forward and normalizing it. Google has engaged with psychological warfare against the American people. They advertised the service as a way and means to “broadcast ourselves” but has no intention of allowing us to do that if our positions run contrary to their “woke vision”.
#BLM WATCH - The US Bureau of Land Mismanagement EXPOSED Again - I wouldn’t hire them to manage my garbage disposal
I would not want the Bureau of Land Management to manage a damn thing. It is a little discussed Executive agency that the President often uses as a political bludgeon. Unless it provokes a huge armed stand-off not many people really notice.
Well notice this... from their million dollar desert tortoise facility that saw huge amounts of them eventually euthanized, in the end it was discovered that the habitat that the work and planning of Cliven Bundy is what attracted the Desert Tortoise to the land he properly managed. Instead Rocco sends his best button men to put pressure on the ranch for not paying their protection racket. But this time Rocco found out that the folks he tried putting down on had a small army of cowboys waiting for them with 2 words to relay. GO HOME!
I’m smelling another need for that here, the only problem is that the horses can’t give an interview or fire an AR-15. Boy if wishes only could come true.

BREAKING NEWS - BIDEN ENDS STATE DEPT INVESTIGATION INTO COVID ORIGIN
It’s bad enough that we are stuck with the morally bankrupt mentally deficient President of the United States Inc. but now to make matters worse, 2+ the division in this country make it worst, President “kids pet my hairy legs” Biden ended the state department investigation into the origins of the coronavirus pandemic. Essentially our government could be completely responsible or not responsible at all it could’ve been the t Chinese communist but apparently there will never be an official answer.
Video disclaimer: this video is a product of the Fox News corporation. As with all main stream media sources we sometimes will share their clips, but the sharing of these clips does not equate to an endorsement of the network. We here at RTR truth media tend to be non partisan although admittedly lean conservative. In the interest of transparency it is important for media sources to disclose their honest ideological beliefs. We however do believe in divorcing ourselves of the left right false paradigm. There’s only one political spectrum that we acknowledge and that is big government on one side of the spectrum and no government on the other.

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - ALL ABOUT THE PROFITS - TO THE POINT HE HURTS HIS FANS - BIG DISAPPOINTMENT
I have been a fan of Bruce Springsteen since I was a boy in New Jersey. I never really agreed with a lot of his politics, but he and Clarence Clemons and Steve Van Zandt were always assisting pumping out our brains into our hats.
You would think that the 35 years of albums and concerts we spent on him would be returned with a degree of mutual admiration But it stops short when it comes to the best form of flattery. There is an app called
Smule that is essentially a karaoke app that brings people from all over the world together to sing in harmony leaving class, race, national origin, religion, etc, together to make peace. And Bruce is one of the few cheapskate bastard artists that just will not allow the music to be used to compliment him. What a horrible impression that makes as this hard core capitalist sell out chooses profits over fans and that is all I have to say about that. I wanted to be you once Boss. Now I just see you as a fraud. If you didn’t know, then you need to start firing people who disallow your fans to escape the pain in their lives with a taste of nostalgia and a chance to imitate you, the best form of flattery and you chuck it.
I’m in pain every night of my life. I use the app to sing because it’s the way I deal with pain. I did Born to Run, and was so stoked it kind of stoked that I really tried and did ok in sounding like you.
All these years and you turn out to be the biggest type of people you claim you can’t stand. You ought to make me pay you for singing your song non commercially you corporate sell out.

YOUTUBE GIVING COMMUNITY GUIDELINES STRIKE TO DISABLED JOURNALIST FOR UNLISTED VIDEO THAT HE WAS TRYING TO VET OF TEXAS SENATE HEARING FOR SPREADING MEDICAL MISINFORMATION HE NEVER SPREAD
It’s really bad enough this journalist that has been not only censored for “not spreading medical mis/disinformation”, but it is his second fraudulent punitive strike based on a false allegation which is in reality the “actual” disinformation, and in fact defamation as such accusations damage ones credibility. The video, to make matters worse were of an official Texas State government session and state senator arguing a few points that sounded seriously alarming. So to be cautious, the journalist in question uploaded the video to “unlisted” so he and his associates could vet 1st the veracity of the video - was it actually the Texas state Senate, which was yes. Then, was the information contained correct? And if it wasn’t a report would have to be done on that. It was an incomplete production in the middle of the process - not a complete and public video. The purpose of doing it this way is that it can be shared with the team of journalists that comprise this website and channels staff, as well they are not rich and this specific journalist was the victim of a burglary and identity theft and lost all his computers so had only the YouTube account to save content he was working on.
YouTubes claim of “spreading” anything is false, yet the account still remains struck as the news cycle ticks on and as they are prevented from preparing for the next radio show.
All of this after some time ago received a defamatory strike accusing he and the channel of cyber bullying and hate speech, which has foundations in a foreign political ideological belief not shared by the journalist or any of his staff that has its foundations in Marxist ideology, as opposed to the traditional American tenet of freedom of speech with Supreme Court decisions that only limit said speech based on threatening or statements that would be considered to cause alarm which could very likely be construed as causing or having the likely potential to cause severe distress .
The interview was of a man that was currently being sued and therefore being accused himself of such a claim. The man in question was Wolfgang Halbig who has just recently been arrested in possession of the ID of one of the Sandy Hook parents Leonard Pozner, a man he stands accused of harassing. Here is where that turns defamatory toward the journalist in question. The interview conducted with Mr. Halbig has no content of stalking, bullying, hate speech, and in fact was an interview to try and ascertain where the lawsuit stood (it’s current disposition) and other maters unrelated to the Sandy Hook shooting or to any specific individual or claim regarding veracity of officially reported events. In other words YouTube chose to do to this journalist what in a sense they had already convicted Halbig of regardless of the content of the interview. It is the absolute worst form of hypocrisy and should see YouTube rightfully sued. It is one thing to try and tear down long standing American tenets like an individual’s right to free speech, especially hated, despised or maddening speech, as fluffy unicorns and rainbows and honey do not require such protection. And sometimes the most long held beliefs are disproven by a dedicated minority. Sometimes even of one. I can’t help but think of that picture of Hitler giving a speech and the one man in the audience with a scowl on his face and arms crossed in obvious disapproval. Today that man would likely be the target of aYouTubes overbearing defamatory process that quietly harms people in reality, not with mere words but direct and deliberate actions. How long will it be until these people realize that this does nothing for the cause of peace nor does it prevent harm from occurring at all. In fact, it causes feelings of severe anxiety, stress, anger, and righteous indignation and the latter of those emotions can be the most deadly, because there is nothing more dangerous than someone who knows that they have been wrongly accused and damaged and who are only given a joke of a process to remedy the damage.
That journalist I have referred to in this article is myself. And I for one have had ENOUGH!

CORONOVIRUS MARXIST TAINTED RELIEF BILL EXPOSED AS REPLACEMENT AGENDA - IT NO LONGER CAN BE SMEARED AS A WHITE SUPREMACIST CONSPIRACY THEORY
I usually agree with what Tucker Carlson says. But Im also one to realize exactly how dangerous he can be by what he doesn't say, and by the Marxist expressions he uses without identifying them for what they are. Please help me bring it to the attention of the Fox News audience.
I don’t believe in government handouts. Because the government produces nothing but bills and obligations for the American people. But if money is to be made available to stimulate the economy or help businesses, then it should be made available for everyone. Equally. Only granting loans to “select races” is against the law. If this is allowed to continue there will be eventual unrest and bloodshed I fear. That is what history tells us.
The
CORONAVIRUS CULTURAL MARXIST REPLACEMENT RELIEF BILL
I am not a “white supremacist”. I am
Just an average American male. I have friends and family of all sorts of backgrounds and cultures. The natural ebb and flow of human interaction can become quite diverse. And that is fine when naturally occurs. But there is absolutely an agenda underway and this bill is just one small example at how racist those who are engaging in this replacement agenda actually are while trying to paint everyday people on that light.
It’s a dangerous and potentially deadly agenda that will absolutely cause some to violently react. They are however a mere symptom of the illness. The illness is this poisonous ideology. Marxism is dangerous.

The insanity of these obviously indoctrinated students causes one to seriously consider if tuition is really worth paying for.

VIRGINIA POLICE WHO SHOULD BE GOING TO PRISON GET OFF COMMITTING SERIOUS CRIMES THAT WOULD PUT ANY OTHER PERSON BEHIND BARS FOR YEARS
- Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
- Aggravated assault - pepper spray
- Deprivation of Rights under the color of law
by long after realizing no crime had been committed continued to restrain a free law abiding man.
- 4th Amendment violation illegal search
- Animal cruelty - Assault of a United States Army service dog.
And all while giving conflicting orders...
They instructed the man NOT TO PUT HIS HANDS IN THE CAR.. but insisted he get out while his seatbelt was locked.
That set of conflicting orders was responded to more than reasonably by the man placing his hands where they could be seen and not moving a muscle.
The officer in the end commits extortion by telling the man that if he just wants to “let it go and move on down the road he would do nothing. But if the man did want to “push the issue “ he would be charged with a litany if bogus charges that could ruin his entire career.
MY VERDICT:
6 YEARS IN PRISON for officer spray happy.
3 YEARS for the other for following Officer Dipshit down that path to lunacy.

NEW YORK TIMES DEALT CRUSHING BLOW and EXPOSED AS INTENTIONAL LYING PROPAGANDISTS
In a stunning blow, New York Times has been taken to the woodshed by Project Veritas and beyond the slinging of words the New York Times was utterly and completely castigated by a judge For doing exactly what they claimed Project Veritas was doing. This video report from James O’Keefe lays it all out with evidence. As many of our readers know, while most of us at RTR TRUTH MEDIA lean to the right, we are not affiliated with any party and our dedication is to the truth no matter where the truth takes us.
As a reminder to anyone and everyone who is not familiar with exactly how the New York Times has been a subversive rag here’s some quotes that should be eye-opening if you haven’t read them already. The following comes from a publication that the CIA regularly has as part of their investigative reports.
Media Protects Bilderberg Group
Exclusive to The SPOTLIGHT
- Henry Kissinger, David Rockefeller and other Bilderberg luminaries frequently and gushingly thank the media attending their secret meetings for covering up their global conspiracy.
By James P. Tucker Jr.Each spring, when Bilderberg meets behind closed doors at a remote luxury resort sealed off by armed guards, police and, frequently, the host nation's military, luminaries from the world's major newspapers and broadcast outlets attend on vows of secrecy.
Thus, Bilderberg makes the mainstream press part of the conspiracy of silence, causing them to ignore a major story. Over the years, Bilderberg coverage by the SPOTLIGHT has resulted in advance stories on the end of the Cold War, the downfall of Margaret Thatcher and other earth-shaking events.
Often, the gratitude is expressed individually during cocktail-sippings, with Kissinger, Rockefeller and others thanking Donald Graham, publisher of The Washington Post, and high officials of The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal and other newspapers and network television anchors.
But secrecy is so crucial that the collaborating press is often thanked as part of the formal proceedings, too.
A source who attended the 1991 Bilderberg meeting in Baden Baden, Germany related the following comments to The SPOTLIGHT and attributed them to mattoid David Rockefeller.
We are grateful to The Washington Post, New York Times, Time magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years.
But the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march toward a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bank ers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries.
The high-ranking State Department official, who has been a reliable source on Bilderberg for more than a decade, went on to say: "I am unable to confirm those precise words, but I have absolute knowledge that Kissinger, Rockefeller and the others always express their gratitude to the collaborating media, many times as individuals and sometimes during a formal meeting."
Henry Kissinger reportedly made similar remarks during the Bilder berg meeting in Evian, France in May 1992:
Today Americans would be outraged if UN troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow, they will be grateful. This is especially true if they were told there is an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will pledge [sic] with world leaders to deliver them from this evil.
The one thing that every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being by their world government.
The SPOTLIGHT reported on this meeting on June 8, 1992, saying that Bilderberg was determined on "conditioning the public -- especially 'those stubborn Americans' -- to accept the idea of a UN army that could, by force, impose its will on the internal affairs of any nation."

1957 - US NEWS & WORLD REPORT - There is No 14th Amendment - by David Lawrence - Historical Archive
There is No "Fourteenth Amendment"!
by
David Lawrence
U.S. News & World Report
September 27, 1957
A MISTAKEN BELIEF -- that there is a valid article in the
Constitution known as the "Fourteenth Amendment" -- is
responsible for the Supreme Court decision of 1954 and the
ensuing controversy over desegregation in the public schools of
America. No such amendment was ever legally ratified by three
fourths of the States of the Union as required by the
Constitution itself. The so-called "Fourteenth Amendment" was
dubiously proclaimed by the Secretary of State on July 20, 1868.
The President shared that doubt. There were 37 States in the
Union at the time, so ratification by at least 28 was necessary
to make the amendment an integral part of the Constitution.
Actually, only 21 States legally ratified it. So it failed of
ratification.
The undisputed record, attested by official journals and the
unanimous writings of historians, establishes these events as
occurring in 1867 and 1868:
1. Outside the South, six States -- New Jersey, Ohio,
Kentucky, California, Delaware and Maryland -- failed
to ratify the proposed amendment.
2. In the South, ten States -- Texas, Arkansas, Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana -- by formal action
of their legislatures, rejected it under the normal
processes of civil law.
3. A total of 16 legislatures out of 37 failed legally to
ratify the "Fourteenth Amendment."
4. Congress -- which had deprived the Southern States of
their seats in the Senate -- did not lawfully pass the
resolution of submission in the first instance.
5. The Southern States which had rejected the amendment
were coerced by a federal statute passed in 1867 that
took away the right to vote or hold office from all
citizens who had served in the Confederate Army.
Military governors were appointed and instructed to
prepare the roll of voters. All this happened in spite
of the presidential proclamation of amnesty previously
issued by the President. New legislatures were
thereupon chosen and forced to "ratify" under penalty
of continued exile from the Union. In Louisiana, a
General sent down from the North presided over the
State legislature.
6. Abraham Lincoln had declared many times that the Union
was "inseparable" and "indivisible." After his death,
and when the war was over, the ratification by the
Southern States of the Thirteenth Amendment, abolishing
slavery, had been accepted as legal. But Congress in
the 1867 law imposed the specific conditions under
which the Southern States would be "entitled to
representation in Congress."
7. Congress, in passing the 1867 law that declared the
Southern States could not have their seats in either
the Senate or House in the next session unless they
ratified the "Fourteenth Amendment," took an
unprecedented step. No such right -- to compel a State
by an act of Congress to ratify a constitutional
amendment -- is to be found anywhere in the
Constitution. Nor has this procedure ever been
sanctioned by the Supreme Court of the United States.
8. President Andrew Johnson publicly denounced this law as
unconstitutional. But it was passed over his veto.
9. Secretary of State Seward was on the spot in July 1868
when the various "ratifications" of a spurious nature
were placed before him. The legislatures of Ohio and
New Jersey had notified him that they rescinded their
earlier action of ratification. He said in his
official proclamation that he was not authorized as
Secretary of State "to determine and decide doubtful
questions as to the authenticity of the organization of
State legislatures or as to the power of any State
legislature to recall a previous act or resolution of
ratification." He added that the amendment was valid
"if the resolutions of the legislatures of Ohio and New
Jersey, ratifying the aforesaid amendment, are to be
deemed as remaining of full force and effect,
notwithstanding the subsequent resolutions of the
legislatures of these States." This was a very big
"if." It will be noted that the real issue, therefore,
is not only whether the forced "ratification" by the
ten Southern States was lawful, but whether the
withdrawal by the legislatures of Ohio and New Jersey -
- two Northern States -- was legal. The right of a
State, by action of its legislature, to change its mind
at any time before the final proclamation of
ratification is issued by the Secretary of State has
been confirmed in connection with other constitutional
amendments.
10. The Oregon Legislature in October 1868 -- three months
after the Secretary's proclamation was issued --
passed a rescinding resolution, which argued that the
"Fourteenth Amendment" had not been ratified by three
fourths of the States and that the "ratifications" in
the Southern States were "usurpations,
unconstitutional, revolutionary and void" and that,
"until such ratification is completed, any State has a
right to withdraw its assent to any proposed
amendment."
What do the historians say about all this? The Encyclopedia
Americana states:
"Reconstruction added humiliation to suffering.... Eight
years of crime, fraud, and corruption followed and it was
State legislatures composed of Negroes, carpetbaggers and
scalawags who obeyed the orders of the generals and ratified
the amendment."
W. E. Woodward, in his famous work, "A New American
History?" published in 1936, says:
"To get a clear idea of the succession of events let us
review [President Andrew] Johnson's actions in respect to
the ex-Confederate States.
"In May, 1865, he issued a Proclamation of Amnesty to former
rebels. Then he established provisional governments in all
the Southern States. They were instructed to call
Constitutional Conventions. They did. New State
governments were elected. White men only had the suffrage
the Fifteenth Amendment establishing equal voting rights had
not yet been passed]. Senators and Representatives were
chosen, but when they appeared at the opening of Congress
they were refused admission. The State governments,
however, continued to function during 1866.
"Now we are in 1867. In the early days of that year
[Thaddeus] Stevens brought in, as chairman of the House
Reconstruction Committee, a bill that proposed to sweep all
the Southern State governments into the wastebasket. The
South was to be put under military rule.
"The bill passed. It was vetoed by Johnson and passed again
over his veto. In the Senate it was amended in such fashion
that any State could escape from military rule and be
restored to its full rights by ratifying the Fourteenth
Amendment and admitting black as well as white men to the
polls."
In challenging its constitutionality, President Andrew
Johnson said in his veto message:
"I submit to Congress whether this measure is not in its
whole character, scope and object without precedent and
without authority, in palpable conflict with the plainest
provisions of the Constitution, and utterly destructive of
those great principles of liberty and humanity for which our
ancestors on both sides of the Atlantic have shed so much
blood and expended so much treasure."
Many historians have applauded Johnson's words. Samuel
Eliot Morison and Henry Steele Commager, known today as
"liberals," wrote in their book, "The Growth of the American
Republic":
"Johnson returned the bill with a scorching message arguing
the unconstitutionality of the whole thing, and most
impartial students have agreed with his reasoning."
James Truslow Adams, another noted historian, writes in his
"History of the United States":
"The Supreme Court had decided three months earlier, in the
Milligan case, ... that military courts were
unconstitutional except under such war conditions as might
make the operation of civil courts impossible, but the
President pointed out in vain that practically the whole of
the new legislation was unconstitutional. ... There was
even talk in Congress of impeaching the Supreme Court for
its decisions! The legislature had run amok and was
threatening both the Executive and the Judiciary."
Actually, President Johnson was impeached, but the move
failed by one vote in the Senate.
The Supreme Court, in case after case, refused to pass on
the illegal activities involved in "ratification." It said
simply that they were acts of the "political departments of the
Government." This, of course, was a convenient device of
avoidance. The Court has adhered to that position ever since
Reconstruction Days.
Andrew C. McLaughlin, whose "Constitutional History of the
United States" is a standard work, writes:
"Can a State which is not a State and not recognized as such
by Congress, perform the supreme duty of ratifying an
amendment to the fundamental law? Or does a State -- by
congressional thinking -- cease to be a State for some
purposes but not for others?"
This is the tragic history of the so-called "Fourteenth
Amendment" -- a record that is a disgrace to free government and
a "government of law."
Isn't the use of military force to override local government
what we deplored in Hungary?
It is never too late to correct injustice. The people of
America should have an opportunity to pass on an amendment to the
Constitution that sets forth the right of the Federal Government
to control education and regulate attendance at public schools
either with federal power alone or concurrently with the States.
That's the honest way, the just way to deal with the problem
of segregation or integration in the schools. Until such an
amendment is adopted, the "Fourteenth Amendment" should be
considered as null and void.
There is only one supreme tribunal -- it is the people
themselves. Their sovereign will is expressed through the
procedures set forth in the Constitution itself.

MARXIST in AMERICAN GOVT - MANY COVERED THIS - NO ONE HAD THE COURAGE TO SAY WHAT NEEDED TO BE SAID
It never ceases to amaze me the level of outright race baiting nonsense that passes for news these days. In a recent extremely covered castigation of a conservative politician many main stream media outlets covered the skin color of everyone involved. They covered the fact that Black Lives Matter a Marxist lead organization was mentioned and even seemed to support the castigation of who they identified not as simply an American politician but a “White” politician as if his skin tone had a thing to do with his opposition to the poisonous ideology that supports the still illegal World Communist Movement. Here is the video of this exchange
For examples of pundits and yellow journalism, check out the following articles and video. The majority of the coverage of this incident didn’t give a perfectly well known fact that the founders of Black Lives Matter as an organization admitted to being, not naturally embracing, but to being “trained Marxists”. This is not the typical expression for college educated individuals. How many college grads to you hear saying “I am a trained Podiatrist? How about “I’m a trained “ accountant?

YOU MAY NOT LEAVE the COUNTRY for CHRISTMAS - ORWELL PROVEN to be MODERN NOSTRADAMUS
RTR TRUTH MEDIA - It often never ceases to amaze me just how accurate Orwell’s non-fiction and fiction alike are both extremely real. His works were supposed to warn us what not to tolerate or accept and, well, so much for that.
My two favorite Quotes by George Orwell - "And when memory failed and written records were falsified—when that happened, the claim of the Party to have improved the conditions of human life had got to be accepted, because there did not exist, and never again could exist, any standard against which it could be tested." – George Orwell, 1984
“If all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth." – George Orwell, 1984
————-
Eric Arthur Blair, better known by his pen name, George Orwell, was a brilliant English writer of the 20th century who transformed literature with his piercing social commentary and allegorical style. Considered classics, his novels Animal Farm and 1984 are read in classrooms around the world. His works have become so entrenched in popular and political culture that the term “Orwellian” is now commonly used to describe totalitarian and authoritarian societies.
Orwell also wrote numerous nonfiction books and essays documenting his own life experiences, which similarly express his gift for satire and controversial views on government. Throughout his writing career, he never feared tackling challenging topics and expressing his opinions, no matter how subversive. Read on for George Orwell’s best quotes about truth, reality, freedom, politics, power, and money.
Quotes About Truth & Reality
The concepts of truth and reality are major themes in many of Orwell’s novels—especially the chilling dystopian classic, 1984. As Orwell asserts, reality is what you make of it, but the truth isn’t always so clear.
1. “There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.” - George Orwell, 1984

4. "It's the one thing they can't do. They can make you say anything—anything—but they can't make you believe it. They can't get inside you." – George Orwell, 1984
5. "And when memory failed and written records were falsified—when that happened, the claim of the Party to have improved the conditions of human life had got to be accepted, because there did not exist, and never again could exist, any standard against which it could be tested." – George Orwell, 1984
6. "If all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth." – George Orwell, 1984

8. “The best books... are those that tell you what you know already.” – George Orwell,1984
Quotes About Freedom
Many of Orwell’s works center around freedom and oppression—whether political or personal—as he seeks to define what being free truly means and questions what kind of freedom is worth living or dying for.
9. “Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.” – George Orwell, 1984

13. “I sometimes think that the price of liberty is not so much eternal vigilance as eternal dirt.” – George Orwell, The Road to Wigan Pier
14. “To die hating them, that was freedom.” – George Orwell, 1984
