The BRICS End Run

Freedom, Indiana – Author Andrew Horning is seeking the Libertarian Party of Indiana’s nomination for Indiana’s US Senate seat in 2024.

It’s apparently newsworthy that Jim Banks says we shouldn’t trust John Rust.  I’ve read and heard it everywhere.  So this internecine tiff must be important news! 

But as our nation crumbles on the eve of WWIII, let’s strongly consider whether we should trust any part or person of the inherently divisive, unconstitutional, sold-out and obviously destructive Two Party System. 

Point to ponder: the 2023 BRICS Summit end-run around counterproductive, transgenerational, “bipartisan” global and domestic policies and actions.  The nations’ agreements underscored what some of us have been warning about for decades.  As the USA has spent trillions on secrecy, global hegemony, internal division and never-ending war, the nations we’ve angered and alienated with our sanctions, violence and subterfuge, have begun pushing us aside.

• The original BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) have, as of this month, admitted six new members to their bloc – Argentina, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.   This consortium now controls fully half of global oil production.
• They’re exiting the USA’s “petrodollar system” to firm up their own currencies, and/or create a new common currency to ultimately become the global Reserve Currency.  This will make member nations immune to the USA’s oil/ dollar embargoes, and destroy the strong global market for the inflated, stretched-like-toffee U$D.
• They’ll continue to build infrastructure and financial/technological capability through China’s global “One Belt One Road” initiative and trade agreements, while the USA keeps lobbing missiles, drones and spies at everybody.  They’re buying friends, trade partners and dependents, while we’re making enemies, and robbing friends.
• They’ll continue work with the many wealthy elites, NGOs, INGOs, governments and transnational corporations[1] enacting the UN’s Agenda 2030 to take down western hegemony.  This New World Order replicates China’s “hybrid economy” model of corporatism under technologically enabled totalitarianism.  It’s a global techno-panopticon of total population control and crony capitalism, while the USA is persisting in aggressively militarized mercantilism.

BRICS nations have their problems, to be sure.  But they’re mostly on the way up, with good plans for growth, while we’re very demonstrably self-destructing at an accelerating pace as the bipartisan consensus of our disastrous Two Party Scam. 

This shouldn’t be happening.  We shouldn’t have so many enemies.  We should have more people wanting to emulate the peace, prosperity, liberty and justice for all that is ours to claim, by law.  And we should be uniting against those that have us fighting each other!  …But we’re steered in the wrong direction by every other candidate for Indiana’s US Senate seat.

Ah, but can you trust me?  Smart question.

Well, only I have been protesting, campaigning, pressing lawsuits and committing to print all the same objections and solutions through three decades – solutions that, BTW, have been proven to work better than anything else we humans have ever tried.  And it’s all in my book for all to see and judge me by my own words, and thirty years of nonstop and unpaid action…

Liberty or Bust!

A Better “Great Reset”

Freedom, Indiana – Andrew Horning is seeking the Libertarian Party of Indiana’s nomination for Indiana’s US Senate seat in 2024.

The UN’s Agenda 2030, a global domination scheme monetized by the WEF cartel, programmed into our minds by the TNI cartel, and to be enforced by the WHO monopoly through created catastrophe, must be stopped. 

WEF founder Klaus Schwab said in Davos, “We have to rebuild trust.”  But the wealthy elites, NGOs, INGOs, governments and corporations[1] working in lockstep to oppress us under a global digital panopticon, have been serially wrong, have lied, have suppressed truth, and have harmed yet-uncountable millions.  We would be foolish to trust them again. 

The USA must reassert our constitutional rule of law, national sovereignty, and individual human rights.  I have a plan to accomplish this, and I’d of course be happy to discuss it.

Liberty or Bust!

The case for (peaceful) revolution

The case for (peaceful) revolution

Freedom, Indiana – Andrew Horning is seeking the Libertarian Party of Indiana’s nomination for Indiana’s US Senate seat in 2024.

With Larry Bucshon soon exiting, stage left, A good friend and longtime GOP D.C. insider said I should run in the GOP primary for Indiana’s 8^th district seat.  I was briefly tempted.  Truth be told, I’ve voted in the two requisite GOP primaries, and I’d love to get paid for what I do at personal cost anyway.  I won an election as a Republican, and a high percentage of the finest people I know, are Republicans.  So it is with respect to the opinions of my friends that I declare the causes which call for revolution, instead of continued capitulation to the status quo.

The whole inherently corrupt, unconstitutional, fraudulent Two Party System is a puppet show distraction from the legions of bureaucrats, bundlers, kingmakers, puppet masters and authoritarian NGOs, INGOs, corporations and billionaires who’re actually running the world.  That’s of course unconstitutional, as well as fraudulent, thieving, and mass murderous.  And those movie-ready supervillains are doing a terrible job of ruling the planet.  …How terrible?

Through the last forty years, fertility and birth rates have dropped.  Early puberty for girls, and halved testosterone and sperm count for boys.  Explosion in autism spectrum disorders.  Exploding chronic disease and the very visible problem of obesity and metabolic syndrome in even our very young.  More recently, a marked increase in “excess death” rates and lower life expectancy.  The ominous, new, phthalate syndrome.  Mental health issues, possibly including gender dysphoria.  We’ve gone from poisoning our own people, to funding the bioweapons research of the Chinese Communist Party.  We have a needless, corrupt, unconstitutional immigration crisis.  We’re on the edge of another World War, just as we’re about to experience a global monetary, fiscal/financial and cultural collapse that will make The Fall of Rome look like a lady’s gentle sneeze.

Since the mid-1990’s, I’ve ever-more-urgently protested, campaigned, written and publicly lectured against the corruption of our globalized, monopolized, corporatized, sold-out, blackmailed and bought government.  I’ve warned of the insidious growth of unelected cartel powers from the Fabian Society, Chatham House, Council on Foreign Relations, the United Nations, Trilateral Commission and, of course, the World Economic Forum which have enacted the techno-totalitarian plans of Malthusians to create a corporation-owned digital panopticon, and rob us of all we have.  I’m certainly not the only one who’s issued such warnings.  Starting with founding fathers and several later Presidents, we’ve been warned.  My last press release was about one of the last steps toward a techno-totalitarianism Eisenhower could only imagine when he coined the “scientific-technological elite” – silencing opposition and controlling information.

To cut to the crux – “The Government” as represented by the Two Party System we see on the ballot is hardly even relevant anymore.  Most “laws” aren’t written by elected lawmakers. They’re written, judged, executed and enforced by executive agency bureaucrats and cops…and that’s all illegal.  Even the laws passed by legislatures are mostly written by unelected staffers and of course lobbyists.  “Public-Private Partnerships” are a scam.  Corporations chartered, empowered and regulated by corporate laws are government entities, and are not private.  “Public” means politicians.  Corporations, NGOs, INGOs and IGOs ARE today’s government.  This is of course anti-democratic, anti-constitutional, illegal and illegitimate.

Maybe we’ve not yet suffered enough? We all should have read the words, “that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed” in context. For too long, and through too much deceit, injustice and death, too many of us have emboldened and sustained what must end by our mindful choice, or in slack-jaw horror, violence and poverty.

We need a revolution.  We need to fire the whole system of corruption and fraud.  No politician can do that – only voters can.  And they can do that only by willfully, conclusively rejecting the whole crony network.

The good news is that we have the legal, peaceful power to accomplish this…in a single day, if we’re willing to look in the mirror and see the truth of how we got here.  All revolutions start in the mind, after all.  And it’d take only a little more than a third of us to change everything. It’s only the bad math of a “two party system“ that has us invoking “the masses“ for our “lesser evil“ choices. It’s the passionate few who’ve always determined the course of history – just as it’s only tiny handful of wealthy globalists calling all the shots today. And by all the recent data, we have the numbers – we need only vote the way we talk.

We can live together in peace, security, prosperity, liberty and justice for all.  We need only use our votes as weapons of revolution, as is their whole purpose. I intend to put exactly that peaceful, necessary revolution on the ballot for Indiana’s 2024 US Senate election.

Liberty or Bust!

WEF and TNI – The REAL “Threat To Democracy”

For Immediate Release
Contact: Andrew Horning
Horning for US Senate
January 3, 2024

Freedom, Indiana – Andrew Horning is seeking the Libertarian Party of Indiana’s nomination for Indiana’s US Senate seat in 2024.

How much more obvious can it be, that a global cartel of elitist Malthusian eugenicists bent on depopulation and global domination, are well on their way to destroying our nation?  Well, it’s not obvious at all to people who know only what they’re told.  For that we can thank the “Trusted News Initiative” (TNI).

“The information of the people at large can alone make them safe, as they are the sole depositary of our political and religious freedom.” – Thomas Jefferson to William Duane, 1810.

“…wherever the people are well informed they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights.” – Thomas Jefferson to Richard Price, 1789.

Today, most of us understand that our government is corrupt.  Even our leftist media agree that evil things have been done under and behind the USA flag in the past (they just won’t concede that it’s happening today).  Most people at least sense that we’re in big trouble – cultural, as well as monetary, military, legal and fiscal.  We’re already suffering the effects of disastrous politics, authoritarian mismanagement and debt from the current and past administrations. But it’s been a slowly ratcheting problem that we don’t seem to notice as we should.  And, as it says in our Declaration of Independence, “…mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”  So most of us still vote for the unconstitutional crony system of bundlers, lobbyists, kingmakers, partisan staffers, bureaucrats and industrialists we call “The Two Party System.”

Since the WEF’s founding in 1971, accelerating since the late 1980’s, and becoming a juggernaut since 2012 (particularly with the creation of COVID 19 “opportunity” – their words, not mine), the few rich and influential WEF elite have been effective in leveraging their nightmarish vision of techno-totalitarianism through most of the world’s governments.  While the WEF websites no longer use the UN’s Agenda 2030 logo or clearly state specific agenda points, these literal fascists (by Mussolini’s definition – the bundling/morphing of corporatism and socialism) do clearly aim to take all we have (rights, property, opportunity), and give it to their corporate cronies.  That much is not “conspiracy theory.”  It is the WEF’s publicly stated objective of “public-private partnerships” and “stakeholder capitalism.”

Pouring accelerant on this cultural conflagration, the Trusted News Initiative (TNI) – a cartel of ideologically authoritarian tech/ information/ entertainment corporations, not only control most of what we can search, read, see and hear, but also crush alternative viewpoints and people through character assassination, lies and misinformation.  This also is not “conspiracy theory.”  It is the TNI’s publicly stated objective to monopolize and control information and sources.  And their coordinated, even lockstep actions, have already led to catastrophic economic, legal, monetary system and human life damage. 

Our government has concealed huge murderous conspiracies for sometimes decades…the radiation, drug and disease experiments on citizens, soldiers, inmates and children, for example.  The still-dubious JFK assassination investigations.  Or the second day of the Gulf of Tonkin incident, and “weapons of mass destruction” that were our rationalizations for wars.  Now they’ve redefined and selectively applied words like “insurrection” to warp the effect of laws and courts to their partisan whims.  And of course there’s what we’re only gradually finding out about the dubious safety and efficacy of COVID vaccines, treatments, lockdowns and masks, as well as the origin of the virus itself –from only alternative media sources. 

Eisenhower warned of not only the “military-industrial complex,” but also “the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite” sixty-three years ago.  Just three months later, JFK warned of “secret societies” and the danger of government secrecy.  Our FBI, CIA and NSA have a horrible history of crime, violence and lies.  Many of our most respected media, like the New York Times, have a long history of destructive deceit.  How much more can be concealed from us should the TNI succeed in squashing all alternative thoughts and media?    

Of course I wish success to RFK Jr. and his anti-trust suit against the near-monopoly on communication and freedom to speak.

But ultimately, We The People are in charge of everything.  We outnumber the ruling class millions to one; and everything that happens is by our obedience and paying/working participation, if not consent.  However, our incorporated rulers have turned us against ourselves, and our culture is rapidly crumbling.  Things will change; either by our deliberate actions, or in slackjaw surprise when it all comes down around our ears.

We can fix this, and it wouldn’t take “the masses” too many invoke as rationalization for “lesser evil” voting.  We don’t have to buy what they’re selling us.  We can at the very least do to this unelected corporatized ruling class, what we did to Bud Light. 

More significantly; if we’re ready to see the unconstitutional Two Party System we were warned against for what it is – an inherently divisive, and wholly-owned puppet of corrupt shadow powers – we can turn this nation, and maybe the world, back onto the path toward peace, prosperity, security, liberty and justice for all, with only a little more than a third of us.  And 34% of us would certainly be 33.99999999etc% more democratic, legal, fair, and much more sustainable representation than we’ve got now.

Liberty or Bust!

We need to relight the torch of liberty

Freedom, Indiana – July 24 2023, Andrew Horning, seeking the Libertarian Party of Indiana’s nomination for Indiana’s US Senate seat in 2024, made the following statement:

Ours is not a free nation.  We do not have constitutional rule of law.  This is not a republic.  We have no cohesive sense of justice or law, and we have no plan for either peace, or war.  Our nation certainly doesn’t embody our founders’ best ideas, or follow its foundational principles or laws.  Our government is so corrupt it is more accurate to call it a crony crime ring puppet show than anything like legitimate government.  And, by now, most of us know it.

Yet we are so inundated with lies and gaslighting in overt chest-pounding tribalism, that We The People are, as a collective culture, effectively paralyzed in hopelessness, fear, anger and partisan contempt.  Some of us, sadly, are radicalized to militancy by the lies disgorged from our elected officials, media, entertainment, information and education systems.

Worse, we’re denied information that would certainly change our attitudes, viewpoints, and critically, choices on Election Day.  Cover-ups are worse than lies.  As a Libertarian candidate for office, I’ve experienced how lack of coverage is vastly worse than even the most insulting, deceitful reporting.  With lies and bad information, at least we’re given something to think about, look into, and judge for ourselves.  We can’t judge what we can’t even see – not even in shadows or false images.

Just one example is the blinders we wear about vaccines since the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986, that transferred all liability for injury, from vaccine manufacturers, to taxpayers, and created a vast system of bad science, damaging vaccines, political corruption and global secrecy, as well as catastrophic damage to our herd immunity and overall health, that’s only worsening over generations.

The good news, and bad news, is that we chose this.  Around 90% of us, both voters, and those who let others choose for them, chose all of this, and keep choosing it.  That 90% won’t choose anything else.  This is bad because we’ve been choosing badly, and we’re only beginning to feel the results of our collective and transgenerational errors.  On the other hand that’s good, because in proving we had the power to mess it up, we should be able to see that we have the power to choose better.  And that’s very good because some truth is starting to leak out, against all the efforts of our political information machinery.

We have the power of peaceful revolution.  We can tear down this unconstitutional, inherently divisive and destructive, self-appointed and surprisingly recent “Two Party System” on a single day.  …If we want to.

My job, as a candidate, is to offer that choice on the ballot, and in print.  I am doing that.  The next move is yours.

Liberty or Bust!

What’s our REAL “existential crisis?”

For Immediate Release

Contact: Andrew Horning

Horning for US Senate

June 29, 2023

What will we do when the CCP takes Taiwan?

Freedom, Indiana – June 29 2023, Andrew Horning, seeking the Libertarian Party of Indiana’s nomination for Indiana’s US Senate seat in 2024, made the following statement regarding our dangerous, pivotal time:

After my decades of appeals through columns, Op-eds, protests and political campaigns, about the bipartisan (meaning only two unconstitutional parties), pandemic and destructive corruption of our government, I’m glad that at least a little of this existential problem is starting to emerge from behind the major media veil.  …At least with puppets like Biden, and bit-players like the FBI.

But the depth and length of our system-wide corruption has left us in a fragile, overextended, indebted, self-deceived and precarious state, at a very bad time.  Our collective inattention and torpor has caused a number of serious problems that need attention.  For example, the CCP is moving stepwise and relentlessly against Taiwan.  What are we going to do about it?

Ever since the Carter administration cancelled the Sino-American Mutual Defense Treaty (SAMDT) with Taiwan (formally the Republic of China – ROC), there has been no formal agreement to defend Taiwan from takeover by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) that rules the People’s Republic of China (PRC).  Officially, since recognizing the PRC and de-recognizing the ROC in 1979, the USA supports a “One China” policy, with no regard toward the ROC’s existence as a sovereign nation.  NATO only unofficially treats the ROC as a “major non-NATO ally” as defined in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961.  Ukraine was never given even this status by NATO, yet much of the world is assisting the legendarily corrupt Ukraine both financially and militarily in our insane proxy war against Russia.  And much of the world depends upon the ROC’s semiconductor industry for both civilian and military purposes.  Russia has been losing population, resources and strength for some time, while China has been very cleverly winning a war of subversion and dissipation against the USA since at least 2012.  Yes, China has lots of internal problems.  So does Russia.  And so do we.

However, the PRC wants Taiwan, and they mean to take it as their own.  What’s our calculus now?

Generations ago the USA abandoned Jefferson’s “peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none.”  It’s no secret that the USA is backing away from Social Security and Medicare obligations.  We are internally fragmented by a crony network veiled by the two-sock puppet show called the Two Party System.  We are nearly paralyzed in a cultural, psychological and moral hot mess that’s tearing even our families and societal support organizations apart.

It’s not true that the USA spent the USSR into collapse under President Reagan.  It is quite true, however, that we’re spending and spreading ourselves toward calamitous dissolution.  This will end badly, if we don’t control ourselves.

So, what can we do when the PRC takes the ROC?  We could collapse.  Empires always crumble.  Our endless asymmetrical wars and cultural disintegration have made us weak in ways we clearly do not see.

Maybe, we can do nothing.

We need national defense.  Not the global meddling with the CIA and regular military fighting each other worldwide that has become our literal stock in crony trade.  Real, serious, constitutional defense of what’s both important, and possible, even now.

Ask me how.

Liberty or Bust!

Even the Best Republicans Can’t Fix Our Mess

Freedom, Indiana – Today, Andrew Horning is announcing his candidacy for the Libertarian Party of Indiana’s nomination for Indiana’s US Senate seat in 2024:

Statement from Andrew Horning in announcing his candidacy

I admire loyalty.  But partisan divisions and contempt are tearing us apart. They make us believe we must double-down and reinforce this tribal warfare. 

It’s time to face the truth. Any vote for any major party candidate is a vote for a global puppet show of lobbyists, permanent partisan DC staffers, bureaucrats, bundlers, kingmakers, military industrialists and, increasingly, a relative few wealthy authoritarians scheming global domination and oppression behind the curtain of an unconstitutional, inherently divisive and destructive “Two Party System.” We should be enraged enough by the rising debts, inflation and cost of living, along with loss of rights, wealth, security, health, opportunity, and of course, freedom, that we’d vote it all away. Yet we embolden the status quo’s crony crime ring with our predictable votes of overwhelming approval.

The very best GOP officeholders, like Thomas Massie and Rand Paul, are well-intentioned, but voluntary cogs in a machine bigger than any candidate, bigger than the major parties, and, sadly, bigger than the USA.  The best Republicans (and there are many well-intentioned fine people in both major parties) can only waste our best efforts, money and time. They give us only false hope. They misappropriate our power of peaceful revolution. They waste our votes. We’ve been warned for generations, and not just by Eisenhower or our nation’s Founding Fathers.

Yet there’s no need to detail our culture’s many, vast, fundamental and catastrophic problems, or their surprisingly simple solutions. I wrote a whole book about it, and am offering a free Kindle Edition copy of “Relighting the Torch” from June 5 through June 9.

We have an opportunity to resurrect the best ideas in human history, and to vote away the worst.  We can have peace, prosperity, security, liberty and justice for all, at long last.  But we have to stop voting against ourselves…and for a better way.

The constitutional purpose of U.S. Senators is to be the voice of our sovereign states against the violation of constitutional restraints, concomitant encroachment and abuse of power and loss of individual human rights.  For that fundamental, constitutional, legal purpose, Indiana has not had a U.S. Senator for generations.  But there will be one such candidate for Indiana US Senate in 2024 — me.

Liberty or Bust!

Constitutional Crisis…and Opportunity

The Biden Administration’s “Fourteenth Amendment Argument” for an apparently infinite debt ceiling is quite the monkey trap for Republicans who’re just as bad as Democrats in stomping all over constitutional rule of law for ever more power, money, and, of course, corruption.

Here’s the relevant sentence in Amendment 14:4: “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘥𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘤 𝘥𝘦𝘣𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘜𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴, 𝙖𝙪𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙯𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙮 𝙡𝙖𝙬, 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘭𝘶𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘥𝘦𝘣𝘵𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘱𝘢𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘥.”

Why add the phrase, “authorized by law?” Why not make the validity of the public debt unquestionable without that proviso?
Come to think of it, what did the words, “authorized by law” even mean to people who still had some respect for those who not only wrote extensively on nullification, beat the global superpower twice without a formal central government to nullify their own government, and, not coincidentally, wrote Amendment 10? What did it mean to the people who wanted to repudiate confederate debts and further chastise the South for its rebellion?

Remember: constitutions are the literal authority/authorization of government.  Laws written without authority are null and void, as repetitiously affirmed by people like Jefferson and Madison. (see my book…nullification still happens all the time…just in the wrong direction)  This is what the 10th Amendment is all about, right?

So, “authorized by law” in context as well as clear words on paper, means that not only are some “laws” illegal and unauthorized, but also that fraudulent debts are themselves illegitimate, illegal, null and void.

How many of us have been saying this throughout the past eleven score and sixteen years?  It was a big deal in 1776, and thereafter. Until Pres. Andrew Jackson used the threat of force against South Carolina, the states held some reign against federal abuse of power and trampling of authority..by nullification.

But Republicans, who’ve held all three legitimate branches of government many times for many years, have never nullified the unconstitutional powers, programs, agencies, actions and spending of government.  Never.  There’ve been precious few libertarians like Robert Taft, Ron Paul or Thomas Massie in the GOP…and fewer all the time. 

So, in FINALLY invoking the constitution for SOMETHING, Biden’s got the GOP over a barrel.  This is the definition of a constitutional crisis: do we start nullifying unconstitutional stuff at long last?  Or do the Republicans cooperate in nullifying the last shreds of the constitution?  It looks like the latter is happening right now.

We actually do need a “Great Reset,” you know. Just not the kind proposed by Klaus Schwab’s UN Agenda 2030…

The failure of the budget in 1995 (and every budget thereafter), along with the constitutional crises of 1903, 1912/13, the New Deal, LBJ’s nullifying the “gold cover” in 1968 and Nixon nullifying the Bretton Woods Agreement in ’71, unconstitutionally creating “the Two Party System” after WWII and partisan primary elections in the ’70’s, with unbridled, accelerating growth of government power, size, cost and corruption ever since means that:

1. Either we eliminate constitutions, state and federal, for a more honestly authoritarian rule – or establish constitutional rule of law at last.  (see my book) Of course I prefer that latter. We’d all like it. I promise.

2. Repudiate pricey promises like Social Security and Medicare and/or radically reduce the elderly population/ lower life expectancy, which would require…

3. Societal behavior hacking (like CBDCs and “social credit”) to protect the people who got us into this mess, and reduce the rest of us into a relatively sustainable form of self-enslavement and poverty.

4. Or we wake up and fix this ourselves for peace, prosperity, security, justice and freedom.  (see my book…please!)

How any of this works, and to whose advantage, is still, as ever, up to both voters, and the non-voters who let others make all the choices.

Gaslighting with gas stoves

Most of what we call problems and “issues” are only symptoms of much more serious disease.  Take, for example, the proposed, then denied, then proposed again as a possibility, gas stove ban.

Our federal constitution’s 18^th amendment properly, though foolishly, granted the federal government authority to ban ONLY the “…manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors…”  The federal government has never been granted any other authority to ban anything from citizens except counterfeiting, piracy, high seas felony, offense against “the Law of Nations,” and treason.  The 18^th amendment did NOT grant any authority to ban the consumption of intoxicating liquors…or anything else.  But even this limited authority was transgressed when the habitually rogue agency now called the ATF killed more than 10,000 people by intentionally poisoning alcohol supplies.  We should’ve learned something from this.

Even so, every bit of the 18^th amendment’s authority was repealed by the 21^st amendment.  And there has still never been any amendment to authorize the ban of anything else.

As clarified by the 9^th amendment, citizens own all rights and powers not specifically taken away by the federal constitution.  At least as importantly, the 10^th amendment clarifies that politicians have no authority or powers not specifically granted by the federal constitution.  In short, what’s not specifically authorized for politicians to do, is specifically and absolutely banned.

And the very first words of actionable law in that constitution, Article I, Section 1, specify that only congress can make federal law.  Not judges, not executives, and certainly not unelected bureaucrats.

So, CPSC bureaucrat Rich Trumka Jr. has no authority to make any rule that any of us have to obey.  No people in our federal government, not even legislators, have any authority to ban anything except counterfeiting, piracy, high seas felony, offense against “the Law of Nations,” and treason.

Summary: MOST of what our government does at all levels is unconstitutional, parasitic and destructive. 

With at least some of the lies involving Big Pharma, our elections, our spy agencies and our information sources coming to light, it’s obvious to all but the most bleatingly submissive among us that our general system of government, education, entertainment, information, corporatism and culture is a globally corrupt, lying, genuinely evil and deadly-destructive puppet show.

Of course we’d been warned for generations.  Cassandric predictions from journalists, political wonks and even Presidents like Cleveland, Coolidge, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Reagan, as well as innumerable scandals, and revelations of government crimes, should’ve changed our ignorantly trusting attitudes and slavishly tribal votes long ago. 

Who doesn’t know that both incumbent crony parties have sold us out?  Yet we have been reelecting these inherently divisive dysfunctions anyway, so we have nobody to blame but ourselves.  Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.  But fool us every Election Day for generations? 
We have the power of peaceful revolution.  We could fix it all in a single day, such is the power of our numbers and the nature of government.  But first, my fellow human mortals, we have to make better choices, which means we must fix ourselves.

Freedom, IN – From the description on Amazon.com: “We The People and our government avatar, are a hot mess. But we can fix it whenever we set our minds to it.

‘Relighting the Torch’ presents a historical and moral picture of our founders’ better ideas, where we failed those ideas, and some proposals for setting things right…for the first time.

In this book are Horning’s almost-famous and now updated annotated Declaration of Independence and USA Constitution, along with numerous (and sourced) authoritative quotations by key historical figures.

We can, at long last and in the midst of all today’s troubles, realize our ancestors’ dreams of peace, prosperity, security, liberty and justice, for all.

…But the unconstitutional and contemptuously divisive Two Party System our founders warned us about really has to go.”

The paperback is available now, and the Kindle edition will be coming soon.
