5678-5679: This is NOT an Opportunity for More Special Interests from Lincoln County Watch

 By Anna Von Reitz

 

 

 

The Nanny State creates a culture of special interests all jostling each other to get closest to the feeding trough.  Whoever tells the most pitiful story or establishes the most outrageous tale of neglect or social persecution "wins" by getting grants and attention and sympathy from the news media. 

That's not how the American Government works. 

The American Government has a simple mission: to protect the living people and their assets.  We try to do that as simply and fairly as possible. Period. 

There are no "special" grants or awards for special interest groups. 

So everyone concerned can pick up their pity potty and go home.  The Public Trough is permanently closed so far as federal government grants and taxes are concerned.  

You will no longer suffer taxation, mortgages, or organized criminal harassment of any kind. No more foreclosures, evictions, forced migrations, or government-sponsored harassment of any kind. 

As long as you live peaceably and don't injure other people or their property assets, the local, state, and federal government will not come to your door.  

Unless you get into a wreck or suffer breakdown on the road or grossly endanger other travelers with erratic driving, you will never get pulled over by the highway patrol.   

Our American Government is not into racketeering or micro-management of any kind.  We do not do Federal Block Grants, because you will be keeping your money and making use of it locally. 

Everyone will have plenty of money to take care of all personal and community needs without sending it anywhere or having anyone else oversee redistributing it.  You will be self-responsible and self-governing.  

With great freedom comes great responsibility.  You won't be able to come to us and complain about conditions in your town, county, or State because you will be accountable for the life you build yourselves. 

So get ready to participate in all levels of governance to a greater extent than you ever have before.  Stop expecting someone to come save you from yourselves.

Our Republican Form of Government: Section 45 — Religion and State Assemblies from Anna Von Reitz

 

Section 45 — Religion and State Assemblies
While it is each State’s right to determine its day to day organizational course within the Public Law, the Organic Law, and the International Treaties we inherit, it requires negotiation with the other States and the convening of a Continental Congress to address issues of fundamental change.
Various religious groups have offered to take over and use the reins of the civilian government to promote their own beliefs and practices, which is a violation of the fundamental separation between church and state.

While the vast majority of our ancestors were Christian, most of them had suffered or had family members who suffered religious persecution. They well understood that giving the government any oversight at all of religion led to abuses of religious freedom. To secure and guarantee religious freedom for themselves, they guaranteed the same for everyone and set religion outside the purview of government.
As a result, our State Assemblies are not religious organizations, however dedicated the various people making up an Assembly may be to their faith and their views as a private matter.
Most State Assemblies traditionally have a Chaplain and open with a prayer or moment of silence allowing members to say a prayer prior to their business meetings — a prudent and respectful practice that does not however suggest that the nature of the Assembly itself is anything but that of a secular and civilian government.

The solution to the conflict is a mutual security agreement

Paul Craig Roberts

German chancellor Frederick Mertz warns that Russia’s President Putin will not stop waging war if Ukraine falls, and he is sending German soldiers to assist Poland in defense of its borders with Belarus and Kaliningrad. https://www.dw.com/en/germany-news-berlin-sends-soldiers-to-fortify-poland-border/live-75142358

Meanwhile, the European Union debates seizing Russia’s illegally frozen assets. If Europe fears a Russian invasion, why provoke it by stealing money from Russia? https://www.dw.com/en/germany-news-berlin-sends-soldiers-to-fortify-poland-border/live-75142358

Hungarian Prime Minister Orban says the theft of Russian funds would be a declaration of war. This means that conflict would originate in European aggression against Russia. https://www.rt.com/news/629467-orban-frozen-assets/ 

The statements and policies of European governments are nonsensical. If chancellor Mertz thinks the future could bring a Russian invasion of Europe, why refuse Putin’s long-standing offer of a mutual security agreement. Far from confronting Europe with hostility, Putin has repeatedly asked for a mutual security agreement that normalizes all relations between Russia and the West. If an intelligent person feared the invasion of his country, would he provoke the invasion with hostile actions against the supposed invader or would he accept the offer of a mutual security agreement and the normalization of relations?

The inconsistency between chancellor Mertz’s expressed fears and his actions is inexplicable. Is there no intelligence anywhere in Europe?

How countries are destroyed

Paul Craig Roberts

Virginia, formerly a proud and distinguished state, is the home of many of the founding fathers of the United States–George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, George Mason–has fallen into the hands of people ashamed of Virginia’s proud heritage.

The state of Virginia was destroyed by the influx of lobbyists and federal government bureaucrats who serve every interest except the public’s. There have been many victims, including Virginia’s integrity. In 2021 during the Biden regime, the statue of Robert E Lee, in Richmond, the capital of Virginia, was taken down. With the stature went Virginia’s history.

 

Europe Is About to Commit Financial Self-Immolation And Its Leaders Know It

By Gerry Nolan
The Ron Paul Institute

December 17, 2025

Italy’s decision to stand with Belgium against the confiscation of Russian sovereign assets is not a diplomatic footnote. It is a moment of clarity breaking through the fog of performative morality that has engulfed Brussels.

Strip away the slogans and the truth is unavoidable: the seizure of Russian sovereign reserves will not change the course of the war in Ukraine by a single inch.

This is not about funding Ukraine, it is about whether sovereign property still exists in a Western financial system that has quietly replaced law with cult-like obedience.

That is why panic has entered the room.

The European Commission wants to pretend this is a clever workaround, a one-off, an emergency measure wrapped in legal contortions and moral posturing masquerading as hysteria. But finance does not function on intentions, rage, or narratives. It functions on precedent, trust, and enforceability. And once that trust is broken, it does not return.

The modern global financial system rests on a single, unglamorous principle, that State assets held in foreign jurisdictions are legally immune from political confiscation.

That principle underwrites reserve currencies, correspondent banking, sovereign debt markets, and cross-border investment. It is why central banks like Russia’s (once) accepted euros instead of bullion shipped under armed guard. It is why settlement systems like Euroclear exist at all.

Once that rule is broken, capital does not debate. It reprices risk instantly and it leaves.

Confiscation sends a message to every country outside the Western political orbit: your savings are safe only as long as you remain politically compliant.

That is not a rules-based order. It is a selectively enforced order whose rules change the moment compliance ends. What we have is a compliance cartel, enforcing law upward and punishment downward, depending on who obeys and who resists.

Belgium’s fear is not legalistic. It is actuarial. Hosting Euroclear means hosting systemic risk. If Russia or any future target successfully challenges the seizure, Belgium could be exposed to claims that dwarf the sums being discussed. Belgium is therefore right to be skeptical of Europe’s promise to underwrite such colossal risk, given the bloc’s now shattered credibility. No serious financial actor would treat such guarantees as reliable.

 

Israel Propagandists Are Uniformly Spouting The Exact Same Line About The Bondi Shooting

Looks like some kind of memo went out or something, because pro-Israel outlets and individuals are all loudly amplifying one specific talking point about the Bondi Beach shooting.

“I have a simple question for leftists after the antisemitic shooting in Australia. What do you think ‘globalize the intifada’ means?”
~ US Senator Ted Cruz

“That attack in Sydney is exactly what it means to ‘globalize intifada.’ We saw the actual application of the globalization of intifada in Sydney.”

Joachim Hagopian, Zionist False Flag in Australia: Cui Bono? The Control Grid Benefits

December 16, 2025 James Fetzerblog

Joachim Hagopian

On November 30^th, The Guardian showcased the results of a new study on suicide across all age groups in Australia. The biggest takeaway was:

Young Australians aged 16 to 25 [Gen Z] are attempting to kill themselves, self-harming and experiencing suicidal thoughts in greater numbers and at earlier ages than previous generations, a landmark study has found.

Why? The advent of and prolonged exposure to smartphones and social media platforms were cited as key contributors to the rising suicide rates in young people, so much so that Australia just days later became the world’s first nation to ban children 15 and younger from using social media platforms. Though this reflexive band-aid approach will prove futile in curbing teenage suicide, the Canberra government is using the flimsy excuse of “protecting children” to usher in the age of 24/7 invasive surveillance as part of a global control grid.

Each incremental change is creating a centralized system of absolute tyrannical control. In the very near future, just to gain online access, a photo, fingerprint or Digital ID will be required to enter the totally monitored World Wide Web. Immediately following will be a social credit score system and, if deemed expendable by AI algorithms, frozen bank accounts. With China, the social credit score model for the entire New World Order, Chinese citizens who fail to conform, pay bills on time, or do not echo the Chinese Communist Party line, in large numbers are now homeless, living on the streets, and begging for food for daily sustenance. Like it or not, this is the digital control grid gulag system fast-coming to your neighborhood real soon.

Also, along the same connecting control grid, many nations are now rapidly implementing the globalist Digital ID scam. As an early pliable guinea pig, the United Kingdom in September 2025, introduced its mandatory Digital ID for every working British citizen and legal foreign resident, slated to go into effect by 2027. The automatic big con selling points are convenience and consumer safety, preventing identity theft. No longer will citizens be required to carry around their personal IDs, credit cards, and driver’s licenses. An official gov.uk website publicly promotes its “trusted digital identity services” con job this way:

Digital identities give people another way to securely prove things about themselves, such as who they are or what their age is, without having to present physical documents. 

Rather than being honest and delivering upfront straight talk to the people, the British government takes the low road, attempting to deceive citizens into thinking it has their back, always looking for ways to make their lives easier, more comfortable, and safer. This line of bullshit could not be any farther from the truth. The Westminster government would never reveal its true malicious motive for ramping up its authoritarian tyranny to rule over, oppress and control every aspect of its citizens’ lives. Like in the US, the UK is using advanced hidden street cameras everywhere to scan people’s emotions, behaviors, clothing, movements and vehicles, to then use AI to assess citizens’ thought crime potential before they even commit a crime.

Experts agree: There is no such thing as “Super Flu”.

Kit Knightly

Currently, the headlines all across the United Kingdom, and a handful of other nations, are full of references to “Super Flu”.

There is no such thing as “Super Flu”.

It is a term with no scientific meaning or even a solid definition. To confirm this we need look no further than this report from Channel 4 News:

NHS England is calling it a ‘super flu’, which is in fact its own phrase rather than anything scientific.

Or, even more tellingly, there is Devi Shridhar — the High Priestess of Covid hysteria herself — whose Guardian column is headlined “Don’t Call it the Super Flu”, and begins:

I should start by saying “super flu” is not a scientific term or one used by any academics or clinicians I work with. It’s a colloquial phrase that’s been used by various NHS England bosses and taken up by Wes Streeting, the health secretary, and Keir Starmer.

That’s that then. The experts have spoken: “Super Flu” is a colloquial phrase with no actual meaning.

So why does everyone keep describing the incipient flu season in those terms?

To quote Shridar again:

Amid all the noise, it’s difficult to know how bad this flu really is – and how much is political spin.

Isn’t it just?

Maybe it’s time we found out how bad this flu really is, and what about it (if anything) is “super”.

First, we should ask: Doe this flu have different symptoms? Or are the symptoms more severe?

It doesn’t, and they are not, as Dr Giuseppe Aragona tells the Independent [emphasis added]:

The symptoms and severity of H3N2 illness have been similar to seasonal flu, including fever, cough, runny nose, and possibly other symptoms, such as body aches, vomiting, or diarrhoea.

Ok, so its symptoms are common and not unusually severe. Then maybe it’s more transmissible? Or deadly?

Nope. At least, not according to the WHO experts quoted in Politico [emphasis added]:

While hospital admissions have been rising sharply due to the early arrival of flu season, there is currently no evidence that this season’s variant is more deadly or transmissible, experts at the World Health Organization (WHO) and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) told POLITICO.

OK, let’s sum up what we know so far:

• This flu has no unusual symptoms.
• Its symptoms are not unusually severe.
• It is not any more transmissible than normal.
• It is no more deadly than normal.

It seems there is nothing even odd about this flu, let alone “super”.

A lot of the news coverage is focusing on the potential danger to the NHS, with headlines warning this is “beyond catastrophic” and “pushing the NHS to the brink”.

But anyone with a half-decent memory, or the ability to Google, will tell you that headlines warning of overcrowded hospitals or a “winter crisis” are a yearly tradition in the UK:
