To See the Cage is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many

New Book Exposes Trillion Dollar Government & Hollywood Psychological OperationThe Art of Liberty Foundation, a start-up voluntaryist public policy foundation, announces a new book, To See the Cage is to Leave It—25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many. The latest book, by Art of Liberty Foundation founder Etienne de la Boetie2, exposes that the government and Hollywood have been running a multi-generational, trillion-dollar psychological operation on the population to indoctrinate them into accepting a ruling class, confiscatory taxation, and inflationary fractional reserve currency issued by private banks. The book details 25 unethically manipulative techniques the “government” and monopoly media have been secretly using on the population, ranging from a hidden curriculum in their mandatory schools and scouting to the secret placement of propaganda in over 1,000+ movies and 1,000+ television shows. These techniques include subliminal messages and product placement of the American flag “anchored” to moments of high-positive emotion during the “programming”. Technique #1 is mandatory government schools running the Prussian model of education to indoctrinate children that “government” is legitimate, desirable and necessary before they are old enough to evaluate the logic and morality of that assertion. The goal of the program has been to get free and independent human beings to self-identify as “Americans” (or “Canadians,” “Russians,” Israelis, etc. as every “government” is, essentially, running the same playbook) and be tricked into a pseudo-religion calledStatism, the belief in having a “government,” using what can only be called classic, textbook “cult-indoctrination techniques.” Statism is the completely indoctrinated belief in the legitimacy, desirability and necessity of having a “government” even though there is no ironclad law of the universe that “government” is legitimate, desirable or necessary. The book posits that there is an inter-generational organized crime system centered around banking and central-banking that has been controlling the information the public receives about the legitimacy, desirability and necessity of “government” using mandatory schools and monopoly media to “legalize” fractional reserve banking and trillions of dollars in “bailouts” and “stimulus” that is handed to the controllers even though the system is inherently unfair, inflationary, and secretly stealing the value from everyone else’s money. This organized crime system has been using the exact same techniques used by disingenuous religions and cults to trick the population into a worldview where they are easily robbed, controlled, and trapped in a no-win game of rigged elections where the same interests secretly own both parties. The book includes multiple videos exposing the techniques that can be clicked-to-play in the ePub version and QR codes that can be scanned while reading the physical book to bring up the companion material. The award-winning documentary Theatres of War exposes the Department of Defense and intelligence agency involvement in more than 1,000 movies and 1,000 television shows.

Click the image above or scan the QR code to watch. The book also exposes a dozen+ sub-techniques used on Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Police and Military to indoctrinate obedience to hierarchical command and control and, ultimately, to get the police and military to set their morality aside and use violence on peaceful people for the “church leadership” of the indoctrinated cult. During “basic training,” military recruits are forced to undergo a variety of unethically manipulative techniques, including verbal and physical abuse, excessive stress, degradation and humiliation, sleep deprivation, isolation and the artificial conformity of the uni-form (single form) and shaved heads replacing individual physical appearance with a group appearance further reinforcing the artificially created group dynamic. The services are notorious for inciting peer pressure and collective punishment, including “blanket parties” where the non-conforming are beaten with improvised flails (soap bars or locks in a towel/sock). The Marines take the doors off the stalls in the bathroom so recruits can’t have even a moment of privacy to reflect on what is being done to them or the fact that they are committing to murder whoever the church leadership tells them to. They are injected with debilitating “vaccines” and forced to sing march cadences that normalize murder, among other techniques.Some of these techniques used in government-affiliated youth programs, including the Young Marines, Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Explorers, and JROTC include the uniform (Single Form) and head-shaving, which replaces an individual’s appearance with an artificial, psychologically-reinforcing group appearance. Hare Krishnas, Rajneeshpuram members, Heaven’s Gate, Jim Jones’s People’s Temple Members, and Unification Church Members (Moonies) are other organizations that asked adherents to suspend individuality and shave their heads and/or assume the uni-form. Another technique exposed by the book is that the monopoly media has been using trick photography to give the “President” and “Church Leadership” the appearance of holiness through subliminal halos and/or photographing them in front of religious iconography. The Artificially Indoctrinated Holy Symbol of the American Flag is Manipulatively Woven Into the Burial Ceremony of the Deceased – A trick to get the participants to associate the memory of their beloved deceased with the flag, even though it is the policies of the ”church leadership” that are frequently responsible for their deaths.Paid-For Flag Worship Woven Into Stadium Events and Sports – Weaving flag worship ceremonies into stadium events is another type of unethically manipulative product placement of the flag and “Anchoring” technique. Everyone loves a football or baseball game, so the organized crime system pays teams, previously as much as $53 million a year, to add flag-worshipping events and military jet flyovers to important games to “anchor” the excitement and good times of an outdoor event to the flag and ”government.” The fact that the US “government” is paying the teams to participate proves it is artificial.Interestingly, the book breaks down the idolatry of Statism, where the hidden curriculum of the mandatory government schools, monopoly media, scouting, and police/military training circumvents the objective morality of the Judeo-Christian tradition with the subjective morality of indoctrinated Statism. This is a page from To See the Cage Is to Leave It exposing technique #20, where middle school children are taken to “Mecca” (Washington, DC), where they are taken to the “Cathedral” of the Capital (that looks like the Vatican… for a Reason!), and the “Temples” (Monuments”) where they are shown the “Deities” (Lincoln, Washington), where the environment is kept artificially hushed and reverent. They will be shown the “Holy Document” of the Con-stitution, which is kept preserved in helium under bullet-proof glass similar to other religious relics, in an atmosphere reminiscent of a church or cathedral. The book has a good news message: We don’t really need “government!” Everything the “government” does would be done better, faster, and cheaper by the free market without the waste, fraud, abuse, extortion, and unethically manipulative indoctrination. The book is dedicated to all the good people working for the “government” in the bureaucracy, police and military and features specific tips for helping to reduce the harm the “government” is causing in the world. The book breaks down how the military, especially, is NOT bound by the oath they took because of a well-recognized legal precedent known as fraudulent inducement. Because the organized crime “government” lied to the population about the legitimacy, desirability and necessity of “government”, used unethically manipulative indoctrination and propaganda techniques in mandatory schools and through monopoly media, and because “government” is illegitimate, illogical and immoral on its face, the military is not bound by the oath they took because there was “fraud in the inducement.”To See the Cage Is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many is available in a high-resolution hard cover version for $40, paperback for $19.84, and ePub for $7.77 at SeeTheCage.com There are five & ten copy “friends bundles” for spreading the word, and a $40 bundle with Etienne’s previous book “Government” – The Biggest Scam in History… Exposed! which offers a deeper dive into who is behind the program, the monopolization of the media.

Murrah Building after the Oklahoma City Bombing. The official story is that a truck with thirteen 55-gallon drums of homemade ammonia fertilizer and fuel oil explosive, parked roughly where the red box is, did all the damage to the building. The reality is that a homemade fertilizer bomb of that size doesn’t pack enough punch to do the damage shown, AND the debris field shows explosives in the building have ejected building material into the parking lot, vs. if it were just the truck bomb outside, the debris would have been blown INTO the building. The governor of OK and multiple news agencies reported other bombs found in the building on Day 1 and 20+ witnesses reported hearing more explosions.Last month was the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing of 1995, where, according to the “government” and monopoly media, a federal building in Oklahoma City was bombed by a white supremacist named Tim McVeigh, acting alone, who parked the bomb next to the building’s day care center. If you have ever heard me tell the story in interviews, the Oklahoma City bombing was the event that “woke me up” to the criminality of the organized crime “government.”I was a researcher working at one of the “Big 4” think tanks in Washington, DC, at the time, and I had a $ 3,000-per-month LexisNexis terminal, which allowed me to access any article published in any newspaper, magazine, or other periodical. I quickly realized the story the monopoly MainStreamMedia was telling was very different from what was coming from the local Oklahoma media and alternative media. I initiated my own investigation into the bombing, utilizing all the resources at my disposal at one of the world’s top think tanks. I quickly realized that the ATF and the FBI were the primary suspects in blowing up a day care center in the federal building.You Can’t Understand the Oklahoma City Bombing without Understanding the Waco Massacre and Ruby RidgeWhy Would the “Government” Blow Up a Day Care Center in a Federal Building?A: To squash a Constitutional militia movement that developed after the Waco Massacre and the siege at Ruby Ridge a few years before. A large section of the population had figured out that the “government” was criminally lawless, murderous, out-of-control, and their crimes were being covered up by a monopolized media system that was whitewashing government criminality, including the premeditated murder of dozens of women and children on almost every single channel.Continue reading…Bonus For Subscribers to Our House E-mail List: Since the story is behind the Paywall on Substack and this version of our newsletter goes to our house list e-mail, I am going to share a printable, faxable, emailable version of the ENTIRE article.

[1]Such notions are not entirely new, of course, and the two Scots authors give due credit to Professors Antony Sutton (Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler) and Guido Preparata (Conjuring Hitler: How Britain and America Made the Third Reich).But the strength of their newly-published work, and the reason why it stretches to 700 pages, lies in their careful construction of the historical context, enabling us to see exactly who was behind the Hitler manoeuvre and how it was carried out as part of a long-term plan.Continue readingThe Microschool Revolution Is Just Getting Startedby Michael Bindas and Erica Smith EwingForget apples—this Teacher Appreciation Week, how about giving educators something they can actually use: freedom. Florida did this with a 2024 law that opened the door for educational innovation by easing zoning and land-use restrictions on microschools, making it easier for alternative learning models to flourish outside the traditional system.Following the passage of House Bill 1285, veteran educator Alison Rini repurposed a vacant day care center in the middle of a government housing project in Sarasota, Florida, and opened a microschool. A microschool generally refers to elementary, middle, or high school programs that are tiny by design, averaging just 16 students each.Parents at Rini’s school previously sent their children on a seven-mile bus ride to the nearest public school. But now they can enroll their kindergartners in a neighborhood program just steps from home. Rini is still a teacher, but she is also her own boss.Continue readingWhat Lies Beneath—Congressman Reveals Secret Tunnels Underneath the US CapitolBy Bob HogeThere are many secrets in the U.S. Capitol. There have been smoky back-room deals, cloak-and-dagger subterfuge as politicians jostle for power, and endless horse trading as congresscritters try to get their own pet projects funded.But did you know there were secret tunnels beneath the marbled floors? North Carolina GOP Rep. Tim Moore does, and he decided to give the public a little tour of what he found:The Lincoln Room is one of my favorite spots to bring visitors — when President Lincoln was serving in the House, he sat by the fireplace in this room to read his letters, but the most interesting part of the room is underneath the floorboards.Who knows what other secrets the building holds, considering it is almost 200 years old?”Construction started in the 1700s and there are all sorts of little hidden passageways. As you saw, I just pulled this cover up, and you can see,” Moore said in a video posted to his official congressional X account on Friday, showing a secret door in the floor of the Capitol.Continue readingMapped: The Income Needed to Buy a Home in Every U.S. StateBy Bruno Venditti Graphics/Design: Amy KuoThis was originally posted on our Voronoi app. Download the app for free on iOS or Android and discover incredible data-driven charts from a variety of trusted sources.As home prices continue to climb and mortgage rates remain elevated, buying a home in the U.S. has become increasingly out of reach for the average household.In 2025, buyers now need six-figure salaries to afford a median-priced home in all but 15 states.This visualization, using data from Realtor.com, maps the annual income required to purchase a typical three-bedroom home in every state, based on a 10% down payment, a 6.65% interest rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage, and a 30% income-to-housing cost threshold (which includes taxes and insurance).A recent study found that nearly 50% of U.S. households cannot afford a home priced at $250,000. This is particularly concerning when the median price of a new single-family home nationwide has reached $495,750, according to the National Association of Home Builders.Continue readingThe Forgotten History of Neurological Vaccine Injuriesby A Midwestern DoctorStory at a Glance:•One of the most frequent complications of vaccination is neurological injury, and ever since the smallpox vaccine hit the market over two centuries ago, severe and unusual injuries have been reported throughout the medical literature.•Rather than disclose these injuries to the public, the medical profession chose to conceal them under the erroneous belief that the public good of vaccination justified hiding anything which would create vaccine hesitancy—a cruel mentality that is still used to push unsafe and ineffective vaccines.•Many of those injuries such as a spreading paralysis of the body mirror the “one in a million” injuries we still see from vaccination but to preserve the mythology of vaccines being “safe and effective” centuries of vaccine toxicity was erased from memory, thereby allowing the same vaccine disasters to keep repeating.Continue readingIs Israel’s Government the world’s most dangerous?by Eric Zuesse9 May 2025, by Eric Zuesse. (All of my recent articles can be seen here.)In the only two international polls that have asked people in a wide range of nations such questions as “Which country do you think is the greatest threat to peace in the world today?”, America was overwhelmingly the country that (in that particular case) the 67,806 global respondents volunteered to write into the blank as being the top-most dangerous of all countries. However, if that poll were to be redone today (and I think it should be done every year), might Israel top the list? Of course, Israel is a much smaller country, but consider this video from UKColumn — one of the best-informed and most reliable sources reporting on imperialism today — about Israel’s version of America’s NSA and UK’s GCHQ, global spying, mind-controlling, and sabotaging, organizations, which are continually learning, through sophisticated algorithms, everyone’s personal prejudices, medical records, etc., so as to manage public consent in their own ‘democracy’ — not only among their own nation’s voters — but also in their targeted foreign countries, so as for these Governments to manipulate, and to work together to manipulate, not only their own populations, but also those in the targeted ones, which public-opinion-management is being done by what’s called “cyber warfare”:Continue readingWhy Elon Musk Is Right: The Case Against Subsidizing Amtrakby Mises Wire•J.D. WongFounded 54 years ago, Amtrak set out on a bold adventure to see if passenger trains could be profitable. Fast forward to today, this experiment has been unsuccessful. Politicians have often crafted routes to win votes rather than attract riders. As a result, Amtrak has been squandering taxpayer money since its start in 1971.Take, for instance, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021. It allocated a monumental $66 billion to bolster passenger rail. Yet, even with this backing, Amtrak’s losses soared from $1.12 billion in FY2019 to $2.12 billion in FY2024. This financial drain isn’t new; America’s passenger trains have lost money for 79 years.Amtrak asserts that it is “on-track to reach operational profitability.” Yet, this is a bald-faced lie. While Amtrak reported a loss of $705.2 million for FY2024, it didn’t include:Continue readingFlorida Troopers Now Federally Credentialed to Arrest Illegal Immigrants on Their OwnBy Darlene McCormick SanchezFlorida officials announced that 1,800 state Highway Patrol troopers are the first in the nation to receive federal credentials under an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agreement allowing them to arrest illegal immigrants on their own.Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said at a press conference on May 12 that the state’s ongoing partnership with ICE included what is known as 287(g) agreements, where state and local law enforcement partner with ICE to help arrest and deport illegal immigrants.The Florida Highway Patrol entered into a 287(g) task force model that gives them the power to arrest foreign nationals who are in the country illegally and place detainers on them during routine policing, such as traffic stops.In essence, it allows local law enforcement to operate as an extension of ICE under federal supervision.Continue readingKlein’s flying supercar rolls out in 2026, with an amphibian to followBy Loz BlainThe AirCar is designed to look sleek and slot into a standard car parking lot on the ground, and slide out wings and its rear section when it’s ready for takeoffKlein VisionMore than 30 years in the making, this long-range, high-speed, flight-tested, two-seat flying car is slated to be certified later this year, with customer deliveries beginning in early 2026. The team tells us an amphibious version could follow.Slovakia’s Klein Vision has now made more than 500 test flights of its rather handsome 4th-gen AirCar prototype, and at the 2025 Living Legends of Aviation Gala Dinner in LA last week, the company showed off renders of the 5th-gen prototype that will form the basis for certification and finally go through to production.This design, co-founder Anton Zajac tells us over a video call, is slated to fly in September. The company expects a full Part 23/CS-23 certification with EASA and/or the US FAA by late September, clearing the path for mass production and customer deliveries to begin early next year.Continue readingBREAKING: COVID-19 mRNA Shots Destroy Over 60% of Women’s Non-Renewable Egg Supplyby Nicolas Hulscher, MPHThe study titled, Impact of mRNA and Inactivated COVID-19 Vaccines on Ovarian Reserve, was recently published in the journal Vaccines:Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the effects of messenger RNA (mRNA) and inactivated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines on ovarian histology and reserve in rats.Methods: Thirty female Wistar albino rats, aged 16–24 weeks, were randomly divided into three groups (n = 10): control, mRNA vaccine, and inactivated vaccine groups. Each vaccine group received two doses (on day 0 and day 28) at human-equivalent doses. Four weeks post-second vaccination, ovarian tissues were harvested for analysis.Results: Immunohistochemical analysis was performed to evaluate the expression of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), caspase-3, and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in ovarian follicles. Both vaccines induced significant increases in TGF-β1, VEGF, and caspase-3 expression, with more pronounced effects in the mRNA vaccine group. Conversely, AMH expression in the granulosa cells of primary, secondary, and antral follicles showed marked reductions (p < 0.001). The counts of primordial, primary, and secondary follicles decreased significantly in the inactivated vaccine group relative to controls and further in the mRNA vaccine group compared to the inactivated group (p < 0.001). Additionally, the mRNA vaccine group exhibited a decrease in antral and preovulatory follicles and an increase in atretic follicles compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). The serum AMH level was diminished with the mRNA vaccination in comparison with the control and inactivated groups.Continue readingModular hotswap batteries allow e-tractor to work the farm for longerBy Paul RiddenAs agriculture tries to clean up its act, the roar of the diesel engine is likely to become a thing of the past in the countryside. But electric farmers don't want to their battery-powered machinery idling for hours charging. The ONOX tractor's modular hotswap approach could help.We've seen a number of electric tractor solutions pitched in recent years, from big names like John Deere and Kubota, as well as startups such as Monarch. Germany's ONOX has joined the farming community with a familiar yet fresh design that boasts a modular battery setup.Currently at the prototype testing stage of development, the startup launched in 2021 and first showed its full-size prototype at a trade show in Hanover a couple of years later. The team attracted the eye of the iF Design judges in 2024, where the electric tractor concept took gold. The test phase began shortly after, including time in the great outdoors. Approval for road use in Germany followed earlier this year.Continue readingCoinbase Hacked After Attackers Bribed Company's Own Employees To Leak Customer DataCoinbase, the world’s third-largest cryptocurrency exchange, was hit by a $20 million extortion attempt after cybercriminals recruited their overseas employeesby Tyler DurdenCoinbase, the world’s third-largest cryptocurrency exchange, was hit by a $20 million extortion attempt after cybercriminals recruited "multiple contractors or employees working in support roles outside the United States to collect information from internal Coinbase systems to which they had access", and to leak user data, the company said according to CoinTelegraph.According to a May 15 blog post and an 8K filing with the SEC, Coinbase said a group of external actors bribed and coordinated with several customer support contractors to access internal systems and steal limited user account data.Continue Reading...Life Was Better When America Was Free Of The Minimum Wageby thefreethoughtproject.comFuture of Freedom Foundation) In today’s society, there are incessant debates over how much the minimum wage should be. I sometimes wonder how many Americans realize that there was once a time when Americans lived without minimum-wage laws. Indeed, how many people realize that the U.S. Supreme Court once held that minimum-wage laws violated the U.S. Constitution, the document that called the federal government into existence?In 1918, Congress approved a bill that created a board to investigate wage conditions in the District of Columbia and to establish a minimum wage for women and minors working within the district. President Woodrow Wilson signed the bill into law.The D.C. minimum-wage law was a good example of the interventionist/regulatory philosophy that was gaining ground in the United States. For more than 100 years, the United States had existed without minimum-wage laws or, for that matter, most other governmental regulations. That’s because the American people had adopted what was known as a “free enterprise” economic system, one in which economic enterprise was largely free of government control, management, and regulation.Continue readingSoros-Linked Groups Sue to Stop Trump’s Migrant Child Trafficking Crackdownby Breitbart and Alex JonesAt the beginning of the month, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced he had uncovered a massive human trafficking operation run out of his department. HHS aims to verify the legal status of adult sponsors before unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) are handed over to their care. The National Center for Youth Law and Democracy Forward both have financial ties to the Soros network. They have filed a class action lawsuit to stop Trump’s crackdown and seek a preliminary injunction to stop the Trump administration from implementing the reforms.Alex Jones said that the estimated 350,000 migrant children who were caught at the border that have gone missing actually total about 1 million missing children because most entered the US without encountering US Border Patrol. Kyle Seraphin, an FBI whistleblower, said that the Trump administration has failed to make these children a priority, which he blamed on the FBI and named Dan Bongino, the Deputy Director of the FBI. He suggested that Bongino may be either unaware of the problem or is chasing headlines.Continue readingThe DOJ Just Torpedoed Its Own Case Against Roger Ver — It’s Time to Drop Itby Matt AgoristOn April 7, 2025, the Department of Justice quietly issued a sweeping policy shift that could—and should—obliterate its case against Roger Ver. Tucked into a 4-page memo titled “Ending Regulation By Prosecution,” the DOJ made a stunning admission: prosecuting individuals for violating unclarified crypto regulations is no longer acceptable. In fact, it’s now against federal policy.“The Department of Justice is not a digital assets regulator... The Justice Department will no longer pursue litigation or enforcement actions that have the effect of superimposing regulatory frameworks on digital assets.”— DOJ Deputy Attorney General Memo, April 7, 2025Let that sink in.For over a decade, federal agencies—under both blue and red banners—have targeted crypto pioneers like Roger Ver with vague, backdated tax rules and regulatory grey zones. Ver, a key early adopter and evangelist of Bitcoin, renounced his U.S. citizenship in 2014 and attempted to follow every legal protocol in doing so. But now, more than 10 years later, the U.S. government is seeking to extradite him over alleged tax liabilities—before the IRS even provided clear digital asset guidance.Continue readingGermany Wind Power Firms Face Millions In Losses As Wind Speed Drops To 50-Year Lowby Tyler Durden, By ReMix NewsIn many ways, Germany’s wind power revolution has been a success, with wind power serving as the country’s largest source of electricity. However, the current wind lull over the last three months has led to an extreme dip in energy production, which is costing firms millions in losses.The wind speed average has dropped below less than 5.5 meters per second in the first quarter of 2025, according to German Meteorological Service (DWD). The last time the country saw such low speeds was in 1972 and 1973, and before that, in 1963.Wind energy producers have been hit hard. For example, PNE, a wind farm operator in Coxhaven, showed revenue dropped to €27.9 million from €31.4 million the previous year, but perhaps more importantly, it went from an operating profit of €1.1 million in the first quarter to a loss of €7.1 million, according to Welt.Continue readingNYT: Trump Ended War With Houthis After They Shot Down U.S. Drones, Nearly Hit Fighter Jetsby Chris MenahanPresident Trump reportedly decided to end his short-lived war on the Houthis after being informed that the US had "burned through weapons and munitions at a rate of about $1 billion in the first month alone" and couldn't even establish air superiority.From The New York Times, "Why Trump Suddenly Declared Victory Over the Houthi Militia":When he approved a campaign to reopen shipping in the Red Sea by bombing the Houthi militant group into submission, President Trump wanted to see results within 30 days of the initial strikes two months ago.By Day 31, Mr. Trump, ever leery of drawn-out military entanglements in the Middle East, demanded a progress report, according to administration officials.But the results were not there. The United States had not even established air superiority over the Houthis. Instead, what was emerging after 30 days of a stepped-up campaign against the Yemeni group was another expensive but inconclusive American military engagement in the region.[...] [Gen. Michael E. Kurilla, the head of Central Command] proposed an eight- to 10-month campaign in which Air Force and Navy warplanes would take out Houthi air defense systems. Then, he said, U.S. forces would mount targeted assassinations modeled on Israel's recent operation against Hezbollah, three U.S. officials said.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsMises Institute Revisionist History of War Conference - May 15th-17th, 2025 - EventThe Free Cities Online Summit 2025 - Online, May 26-30, 2025BARNUM WORLD Premiere - Pollack Cinemas, Tempe, AZ - May 31, 7:00 PMInfinita City - Crypto Cities Build Month - June 1st-30th - Próspera Zone, Roatan (Honduras)Rothbard Graduate Seminar 2025 - June 8th-13th, 2025 - EventPorcupine Freedom Festival - June 16th-22nd - Lancaster, NHMises University 2025 - July 20th-26th, 2025 - EventMidwest Peace and Liberty Festival - July 24th - 27th - Gregory, MIAnarcon - Sept 26th-28th - Gore, VAMises Institute Supporters Summit 2025 - October 16th-18th, 2025 - Even's LibertyFree Cities Conference: Returning to Prague - October 31st to November 2nd, 2025 - EventMemes BonanzaTruth Music of the WeekChannel Five News - The Musical by Bo BurnhamEtienne Note: Every time I see a local news team out "collecting shots" I always go up to them and ask them if they have seen/heard Bo Burnham's Channel 5 News song!

What REALLY Happened at Ruby Ridge, Waco and The Oklahoma City Bombing

What REALLY Happened at Ruby Ridge, Waco and The Oklahoma City Bombing

For Your Friends, Family, and Colleagues That Need to Know… Dear Subscribers,This is last week’s issue… going out on Friday… Expect today’s issue via Substack e-mail on Monday… I had written a brief overview of the Oklahoma City Bombing in my subscriber letter two weeks ago. I soon realized that the kids today (and the young adults who weren’t really paying attention in 1995!) can’t really understand the Oklahoma City Bombing without understanding Ruby Ridge and the Waco Massacre. I expanded that brief overview from Five Meme Friday two weeks ago into a detailed overview of all three incidents to help folks explain what happened to friends, family and colleagues. I am making the two documentaries that I reference in the article, Waco- A New Revelation and A Noble Lie, the videos of the week in remembrance of the hundreds of people that were murdered by the organized crime “government” in just these three incidents. You simply can’t understand the reality of the “government,” and monopoly media without knowing that the FBI and Delta Force premeditatively murdered 80 men, women and children, and the Department of Justice, the Congress and the monopoly media helped them cover it up.OR… the fact that the organized crime “government” blew up a day care center and federal building to trick the population into thinking the militia movement are white supremacist baby killers!We Are Turning on the Paywall for Major Articles… and eventually everythingThat article and this issue of Five Meme Friday (In Substack) are the first publications where I am turning on the paywall. It took me around two full days to write that article, including the time spent re-watching the two documentaries and doing research to get the facts straight for the article. It costs thousands of dollars a month to run this operation and we simply can’t do it without your help!

Murrah Building after the Oklahoma City Bombing. The official story is that a truck with thirteen 55-gallon drums of homemade ammonia fertilizer and fuel oil explosive, parked roughly where the red box is, did all the damage to the building. The reality is that a homemade fertilizer bomb of that size doesn’t pack enough punch to do the damage shown, AND the debris field shows explosives in the building have ejected building material into the parking lot, vs. if it were just the truck bomb outside, the debris would have been blown INTO the building. The governor of OK and multiple news agencies reported other bombs found in the building on Day 1 and 20+ witnesses reported hearing more explosions.Last month was the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing of 1995, where, according to the “government” and monopoly media, a federal building in Oklahoma City was bombed by a white supremacist named Tim McVeigh, acting alone, who parked the bomb next to the building’s day care center. If you have ever heard me tell the story in interviews, the Oklahoma City bombing was the event that “woke me up” to the criminality of the organized crime “government.”I was a researcher working at one of the “Big 4” think tanks in Washington, DC, at the time, and I had a $ 3,000-per-month LexisNexis terminal, which allowed me to access any article published in any newspaper, magazine, or other periodical. I quickly realized the story the monopoly MainStreamMedia was telling was very different from what was coming from the local Oklahoma media and alternative media. I initiated my own investigation into the bombing, utilizing all the resources at my disposal at one of the world’s top think tanks.

A large section of the population had figured out that the “government” was criminally lawless, murderous, out-of-control, and their crimes were being covered up by a monopolized media system that was whitewashing government criminality, including the premeditated murder of dozens of women and children on every channel. The right for the population to form militias and be as equally armed as the “government” is a check against tyranny that is enshrined in the 2nd amendment of the Con-stitution. Tens of thousands of concerned citizens began taking up arms and forming Constitutional citizen militias to protect themselves from the organized crime “government.” The Oklahoma City Bombing was an event staged by the “government” to trick the population into thinking the developing militia movement were white supremacist baby killers. Members of the Texas State Militia at a Briefing. The modern militia movement comprises a morally superior force of good men and women who stand ready to protect their communities against “government” (organized crime) overreach. Why is this important 30 years later?If you or your friends, family or colleagues don’t understand that the US Marshals and FBI shot and killed a woman holding a baby at Ruby Ridge, her 14 year old son, and family dog and then the DOJ and federal court system let the murderers walk away scot-free, then you simply can’t understand the REALITY of the FBI, DOJ and “government”. The award-winning documentary, Waco – A New Revelation, where many of the screenshots below were taken, is being soft-censored with age restriction on YouTube. It the best expose on the evidence that the FBI and Delta Force committed pre-meditated mass murder at Waco of 80 men, women and children and then covered it up with the help of the DoJ, Congress (Chuckie Schumer), and the monopoly media. You can find a non-age restricted version on Odysee HERE. If you or your friends, family and colleagues, don’t understand that the DOJ, FBI, ATF and military (Delta Force), shot up and then burned down a church killing 80+ men, women, and children in a planned, premeditated mass murder operation and then covered it up with the help of the monopoly media, you simply can’t understand the reality of the “government” and monopoly media. Don’t let the cheesey graphic fool you! The award-winning documentary A Noble Lie, is the best documentary with the best evidence that the Oklahoma City bombing was a government operation. #1 Comment on this YouTube version: “Incredible how this is shadow banned on YouTube search”If you or your family, friends, and colleagues, don’t understand that two years later, the “government” blew up a federal building in Oklahoma City with a bomb parked next to a day care center, and then covered it with the help of the monopoly media, you simply can’t understand the reality of the situation we are in today. The fact that to this day no one in the DOJ, FBI, ATF or military has been held accountable for these acts of terrorism and mass murder against the population, or the sex trafficking of Jeffrey Epstein, or the entrapment of January 6th, or the false flag attack of September 11th, 2001, or dozens of other false flag attacks or hoax shooting for gun control, is proof-positive that the same inter-generational organized crime system is still in control in Washington DC. Understanding Ruby RidgeEven if you completely separate yourself from society and live in a cabin in remote Idaho, it is no guarantee that the organized crime “government” won’t try to entrap or murder you. The year before the Waco Massacre in August of 1992, federal agents had been engaged in an entrapment and blackmail operation and then siege in Ruby Ridge, Idaho, where they entrapped, attempted to blackmail, and then shot and killed a man named Randy Weaver’s dog, 14-year-old son Samuel, and his wife Vicki while she was holding the couple’s baby in the doorway of their home while wounding him and a family friend. Pictures of Randy and Vicki Weaver, daughter Sara and son Samuel (left), daughter Sara, family friend Kevin Harris (top right), Randy Weaver at trial (lower right, and Randy Weaver and Sarah (Last Photo inset) Federal agents first entrapped the impoverished Weaver by having an informant hire him to saw off two shotguns below the legal limit, another victimless “crime.” The agents attempted to blackmail Randy Weaver into serving as a federal informant in another investigation. When he refused, they sent a paramilitary team from the US Marshals Service to evaluate how best to arrest (kidnap) him. While creeping around and trespassing on the Weaver’s property in full camouflage, they were discovered by the Weaver’s dog Bandit, who alerted. 14-year-old Samuel and family friend Kevin Harris thought it was a game animal and followed the dog to hunt. When the dog found one of the hidden agents, the agent shot and killed the dog and then pointed his rifle at Samuel. Samuel fired at the unidentified agent and was then shot in the back and killed by another agent on the team. In the ensuing exchange of fire, it is alleged that Weaver’s friend Kevin Harris shot and killed Deputy Marshal William Francis Degan Jr.. Still, there is evidence that Degan may have been killed by friendly fire from the other federal agents on the team. A standoff ensued where Weaver, Harris, and the surviving members of Weaver’s family barricaded themselves in their cabin and refused to surrender. The Hostage Rescue Team of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI HRT) became involved. In the standoff, FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi, who will play a role in the Waco Massacre as well, shoots Weaver, then shoots Harris, but the second shot also hits and kills Weaver’s wife Vicki while she is standing in the door of their home holding the couple’s baby. At the time of the shots, Randy Weaver, Kevin Harris, and 16-year-old Sarah were visiting the body of 14-year-old Samuel and were not a threat to anyone. It was cold, calculated, premeditative murder from 200 yards away. A picture of the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team snipers taken during the Waco Massacre the following year, the sniper at the upper right is Lon Tomohisa Horiuchi, who murdered Vicki Weaver and is suspected of shooting members of the Branch Davidian church during the final assault by the FBI and Delta Force less than a year later. Three expended shell casings will be found at Horiuchi’s sniper position, Sierra One, by the Texas Rangers. On Monday, August 24, the fourth day of the siege and before the murder of Vicki Weaver, FBI Deputy Assistant Director Danny Coulson wrote a memo about the Weavers’ legal position. The memo is recorded in the 1996 report:Something to Consider1. Charge against Weaver is Bull S___.2. No one saw Weaver do any shooting.3. Vicki has no charges against her.4. Weaver’s defense. He ran down the hill to see what dog was barking at. Some guys in camys [camouflage] shot his dog. Started shooting at him. Killed his son. Harris did the shooting. He is in pretty strong legal position.In 1995, the surviving members of the Weaver family received $3.1 million (equivalent to $6.4 million in 2024) to settle their civil suit brought against the U.S. government for the wrongful deaths of Vicki and Samuel Weaver. In a separate suit, settled by the U.S. government in 2000, Harris received $380,000 (equivalent to $650,000 in 2024)Understanding the Waco MassacreThe Branch Davidians’ Mount Carmel Church burned after FBI agents and Delta Force operators pumped it full of flammable tear gas, smashed holes in the sides to vent it like a potbelly stove on the windiest day of the year, and then shot 40 mm tear gas grenades and military illumination rounds into the structure that were flammable while initially claiming they didn’t. Multiple expended 40 mm tear gas rounds, flash bang grenades and illumination rounds were found in the debris by the Texas State Rangers during their investigation. Six flash bang grenades found in the debris were mis-labeled for years as silencers and/or gun parts until a subsequent investigation re-examined the evidence. An FBI airplane recorded paramilitary forces, alleged to be Delta Force Squad-B, apparently machine-gunning people trying to leave the building. Video and still photos of the massacre are below. Two years before the Oklahoma City Bombing and less than one year after the Ruby Ridge murders, the ATF and the FBI were involved in an incident that has come to be known as the Waco Massacre. The Waco Tribune-Herald published a Story on David Koresh on February 27th and was coordinating with the ATF on the release of the story. The raid was codenamed: “Showtime”On February 28th, 1993 the ATF attempted a publicity stunt raid on a Branch Davidian Church in Waco, Texas. The leader of the Church, David Koresh, was under fire in the community for polygamy and allegations of an underage teen bride, so it appears the ATF thought this would be a politically viable target. A number of the Branch Davidians were gun dealers and owned a federally registered gun store on the premises called The Mag-Bag, where they made their living buying and reselling legal firearms. They had a modest inventory for a gun store that would be described as an arsenal by the media with the details of their legal gun business frequently omitted. With upcoming appropriation hearings, the ATF appeared eager to generate publicity. They brought their own PR team, a film crew, and even a crew from a local television station to stage a “dynamic entry” no-knock raid. This was seemingly an attempt to justify their agency’s existence and potentially set a precedent for future armed raids.Inert grenade hulls are a popular novelty item at army-navy stores and gun showsThere was no objective evidence that the Davidians were engaged in any actual criminal activity involving firearms. A UPS driver had reported that a box had burst open, and inert grenade hulls were inside. Inert grenades are sold as novelties in practically every single Army-Navy store, gun show, and flea market in the country. The ATF also claimed that the Davidians *might* be converting semi-automatic weapons to full auto with no actual evidence. They claimed that others had used certain legal gun part kits purchased by the Davidians to convert semi-automatic firearms to fully automatic. A neighbor alleged they had heard automatic weapons fire coming from the Davidians’ property, which contained a rifle range, which wouldn’t necessarily be illegal, as automatic weapons are legal in the United States. Even if the Davidians didn’t possess a valid “tax stamp” (See below), someone possessing a tax stamp could have been shooting with the Davidians on their range. Even if the Davidians had “illegally” modified weapons to fire full auto and/or were shooting full auto without a stamp, all charges would have been “victimless crimes,” which aren’t really crimes because there is no real victim. Many victimless crimes are used as an excuse for the organized crime “government” to tax, track and rob the population. Many people don’t realize that automatic weapons are legal to own if you pay for the government’s “tax stamp.” The current cost to own a fully automatic AR-15 is $200, which is paid to the ATF. Only certain years and models of weapons are eligible, creating artificial scarcity and driving the cost up for enthusiasts. Only pre-1986 automatic AR-15s (or those registered during the 1968 amnesty) are transferable to civilians, making them rare and expensive ($14,000–$32,000+). It is a “legal” way of disarming the population and giving the organized crime “government” an armament advantage over its tax slaves. In the case of firearms, which are supposedly guaranteed by the 2nd amendment to the Con-stitution for the express purpose of keeping the population armed against the exact same tyrannical and open criminality exposed by these three events, the ATF’s list of victimless crimes can be used to disarm the population to make them easier to rob and control. Was large-scale disarmament of the population the ultimate goal of the ATF’s first real foray into military-style confiscation raids on groups that have large inventories of weapons? Did they pick a politically unpopular group to try to set a precedent for armed raids in the future? During the initial February 28th raid, ATF agents pulled up to the Davidians’ residence in the back of a cattle transporter, pretending to be lost and needing directions. The Branch Davidians had been tipped off to the impending raid because an out-of-town reporter asked Koresh’s brother-in-law for directions to the church. An undercover ATF agent in the Davidian Compound left and testified that the Davidians were praying when he left. You can hear the agents shoot one of the Davidians’ dogs in this footage from the ATF’s initial assault captured by the local television station the ATF brought along on their publicity stunt. The ATF had a plan to shoot the Davidians’ dogs if attacked. According to accounts of the initial assault, the ATF “dog team” shot some of the dogs immediately upon exiting the trailer, leading other ATF agents to believe the Davidians were shooting at them, which caused them to open fire. The ATF began raking the building, filled with women and children, with automatic weapons fire. The 911 Calls – The Davidians call the Police on the ATF and beg the 911 operator to stop the assault, explaining that there are women and children in the building. They explain that if the “government” doesn’t quit firing, they will defend themselves, which they ultimately did, killing four agents and wounding 16. Six Branch Davidians were killed and 35 wounded during the raid. The ATF would later testify that when they pulled up, they were ambushed by the Davidians, who opened fire on them immediately. This is discredited by contradictory testimony from various ATF agents, physical evidence (the majority of the holes in the front door were inwardly beveled from shots entering the building), and testimony from the Davidians in the home. The most damning evidence that the ATF is lying was the fact that after two hours the ATF ran out of ammunition and were forced to negotiate an effective surrender where they were videotaped being allowed to leave the church grounds with their hands held up in the air. If the Davidians had REALLY ambushed them with the intent to murder them, why didn’t they finish them off when they ran out of ammo? Finally, the surviving Davidians were charged with murder and attempted murder of federal agents and were found not guilty by a jury that heard evidence from both sides. The ATF agents on the right are walking backwards with their hands raised after they ran out of ammo and were forced to negotiate an effective surrender/truce. If the Davidians REALLY opened fire on them first, why would they let them leave?The ATF ran three video cameras during the raid, claiming that all three videotapes were lost. There were also pages physically torn out of the Crime Scene Activity Logs from that day that might have been exonerating of the Davidians in another violation of the ATF’s policies and indicitive of a cover up. The front door with the inwardly beveling holes, will also completely disappear from the crime scene and FBI agents will be videotaped bleaching evidence (picture below). The FBI and their Murderous Hostage Rescue Team from Ruby Ridge Are Brought InAfter the idiocy and murderous criminality of the failed ATF publicity stunt, the FBI and their murderous “Hostage Rescue Team” was brought in and managed a stand-off where the remaining Branch Davidians locked themselves into the Mount Carmel residence for 51 days until the FBI’s final assault on April 19th, 1993. During the siege, the FBI engaged in both childish and cruel provocations of the Davidians, playing music and psychologically disturbing sounds all night long, including:Rabbit screams (the sound of animals being slaughtered)Recordings of jet enginesAlarms and sirensThe sound of dentist drillsReligious chants and musicTibetan chants and eerie music”These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” by Nancy SinatraLoud tapes of crying babiesThe Final Assault on April 19th, 1995The final assault takes place on the windiest day of the year with ideal conditions for a fire. The Army had “loaned” the FBI a ridiculous amount of military equipment, including nine Bradley M3 Armored Personnel Carriers (APCs), five M728 Combat Engineering Vehicles, and two M1 Abrams tanks. Initially, these armored vehicles were used to destroy the Davidians’ vehicles, and they repeatedly ran over a Davidian grave to provoke and upset the Davidians. During the final assault on the church, these military vehicles would be used to knock holes in the Davidians’ homes and structures and pump in flamable CS tear gas from canisters attached to booms on the front of the vehicles. The FBI will be announcing to the Davidians, the press, and the weak-minded television viewers at home, over loudspeakers that “This is not an assault. We are not entering the building. This is not an assault.” They would procede to enter the building by ramming armored vehicles completely through exterior walls with no concern about who might be on the other side. The picture/video below shows an FBI M3 Bradley Armored Personel Carrier that has been driven almost completely into the church where two operators, believed to be Delta Force squad-B, are firing automatic weapons into the building as well. Still Capture from the FLIR footage shot by the FBI’s own aircraft showing two gunmen who have deployed off the armored personnel carrier seen breaching the residence and firing at people in the residence or trying to escape the assault. The footage and testimony that the Delta Team Squad B were the operators on the ground “pulling triggers” is from the award-winning documentary: Waco – A New Revelation. The FLIR footage of the shooting starts at 1:00:25. At 1:10:43 an Ex-CIA case officer and a former Green Beret testify first-hand that Delta Force operators confessed to them that they were “pulling triggers” at Waco. The holes knocked in the walls would ideally vent the structure for fire the same way that a pot belly stove has slits to increase the heat. A fire breaks out, and the entire compound essentially burns to the ground while the FBI initially refuses to allow firefighters to put out the inferno. The FBI has a fixed wing aircraft circling the church during the final assault shooting Forward Looking Infra Red (FLIR) video that takes light emitted as heat and creates a video that is able to show objects, people and activity that might otherwise be hidden in shadows or darkness. The FBI introduces a portion of the video into evidence claiming it supports their thesis that the Davidians set the fire which engulfed the compound along with some snippets of audio that they claim depict the Davidians plotting and executing the fire. Once the FLIR video is introduced into evidence, the Davidian defense team demands the rest of the video under the rules of discovery. Upon review of the video, there are dozens of examples of government agents shooting into the Davidians’ residence during the final assault including agents deploying from the FBI’s armored vehicles and shooting from FBI helicopters. The FLIR video was being analyzed by Carlos Ghigliotti, one of the world’s top FLIR experts, for the House Oversight Committee when Carlos was apparently suicided. Dr. Edward Allard, the FLIR expert in Waco – A New Revelation, suffered a stroke shortly after the film came out.A screenshot from Waco – A New Revelation, showing that contrary to FBI claims that they didn’t fire or return fire at all during the final assault, there are two automatic weapons being fired into the back of the dining room, the only undamaged exit from the burning building. According to the DoJ’s report at least 15 people were found shot to death in this location. Click HERE for that specific segment from the documentary. A former FBI forensic crime scene analyst will testify anonymously that “the majority of the bodies that he saw were clear cut homicide victims” that were shot to deathVideo of Gunfire from FBI HelicoptersIn this screenshot from Waco – A New Revelation, Falcon 2, an FBI helicopter has been dispatched to investigate a Davidian member trying to leave the church. Contrary to FBI testimony, the helicopter can be seen shooting what appears to be a door-mounted machine gun at the individual. Click HERE for that specific segment from the documentary. Dr. Edward Allard, a former supervising scientist in video and television imagery at the U.S. Government’s night vision directorate, examined the FLIR and conventional video footage and concludes that the flashes are gunfire. Dr. Allard stated, “It’s clearly machine gun fire from a helicopter. There is absolutely nothing in nature that can cause thermal flashes at a 30th of a second.” Dr. Allard is able to isolate at least 62 individual shots or bursts from the tape.The FBI’s FLIR video was focused on the compound and wouldn’t have included shots coming from the three FBI sniper positions where 12 expended shell casings were found including three at FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi’s position. On September 13, 1993, Charles Riley, a fellow FBI sniper deployed with Lon Horiuchi during the Waco Siege, claimed that he had heard Horiuchi shooting on April 19th from sniper position number one (Sierra One), an FBI-held house in front of the compound. He would later retract that statement saying he was “mis-quoted.”Evidence of Military-Grade Shaped Charges/Breaching Charges Used in the AssaultDuring the conflaguration, many of the Davidian woman and children took refuge in a cinderblock room that was used as the church’s records vault. In an effort to demonize the Davidians, the FBI referred to this room as “The Bunker.” The fact that the women and children were trying to protect themselves in the most fire-proof area of the church disproves the FBI’s contention that this was a mass suicide on the part of the Davidians as the Davidian women were clearly trying to protect their children NOT embracing the flames or other ridiculous FBI assertions. Sergeant First Class, Steven M. Barry, U.S. Army Special Forces, retired, stated, “The damage to the stainless steal refrigerator (in the records vault) appears to have been under the blast hole is consistant with a shape charge, and the blast being directed downward into the room, an enclosed concrete room, would very likely cause some seem rupture and create a huge over-pressure inside the room that would pretty much kill everyone in there. Anyone who was under this device when it was blown would have been horribly mangled, probably dismembered, pretty much like being thrown into a grain thresher. Rather than risk your own people, going in there and trying to shoot it out with them, it’s a standard tactic in city fighting in military operations and built up terrain to use explosives in this manner to kill people in a targeted manner that your going to attack.”Colonel Jack Frost stated, “Having examined still photographs and video tapes of the bunker, it was apparent to me that this was caused by a shape charge. What bothers me is who would have the audacity to use such a charge.”General Benton K. Partin (Brigadier General USAF, retired) stated, “What it tells me is that you had a demolition charge went off on the roof.”END OF FREE PREVIEW… Go Paid, Support the Art of Liberty Foundation and get the rest of the story!Part 2 – The rest of: Understanding the Waco Massacre- The FBI Gets Caught Taking “Trophy Photos” at Waco with Davidian Corpses and the Church and Its Inhabitants Burning in the Background- Evidence of an FBI Cover Up at Waco including pre-determining the conclusion of mass suicide, washing and bleaching evidence, and turning off the power to mortuary trucks so the victim’s bodies decompose and can’t be examined. – Understanding the Aftermath & Growth of the Militia MovementPart 3 – Understanding the Oklahoma City BombingThe Official StoryVideo: The Secret Life of Tim McVeighVideo – Evidence of Multiple Bombs in the Building – more than 1/2 a dozen press conferences and news reports of additional bombs found INSIDE the building and footage of the OKC bomb squad being brought in to remove the devices.

Fivememefri – Debunking Prospera Myths – Peter Thiel is NOT an Investor in Prospera

Also…Etienne’s Walk and Talk Tour of ProsperaDear Subscribers,The #1 story this week is an expanded chapter from my upcoming book: Voluntaryism – How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity and Good Karma for All on Prospera, the low-tax, low-regulation charter city on the island of Roatan off the coast of Honduras. It is one of the most comprehensive articles ever written about the project AND the ultimate guide for anyone thinking of visiting, relocating, moving or expanding a business there or investing in the project!What is the big idea? Prospera is the living proof that you can have governance without “government!” Who is going to build the roads? Prospera just built the roads!And they are significantly better than the ones provided by the local government. What about the police in a stateless society? Prospera has private armed protective services.. and they aren’t raising revenue on the population or prosecuting victimless crimes!Prospera is, essentially, one of our “Laboratories of Liberty” that prove that you can have harmony and prosperity without “government”… Which is why the socialist “governments” of Honduras, Cuba, Venezuela and China are out to get it. Check out the video in the article in the investor section to understand what Prospera is up against. Judging from the comments on the article and feedback that I have gotten from people in the liberty movement that should know better, there are a lot of misconceptions about Prospera. I wanted to address a couple:1. 1. Peter Thiel is NOT an investor in Prospera – He is an investor in a fund called Pronomos Capital, run by David Friedman’s son (and Milton Friedman’s grandson) Patri Friedman and others. The fund specializes in start up cities and next generation governance and has a small investment in Prospera. Pronomos doesn’t appear to be doing anything nefarious either BUT many articles on Prospera, including those written by socialist-connected NGOs or monopoly media outlets tar Prospera using that connection. According to an exhaustive search I did, Peter Thiel has never even mentioned the word Prospera. 2.Prospera is NOT hurting native communities, expropriating land, and the majority of Hondurans that I spoke with LIKE Prospera – Similar to the fake news and weaponized media, many “news” stories on Prospera accuse it of somehow harming native community. Many of these articles feature interviews with Prospera detractors as if they are speaking for the entire population. Here are the facts:a. Every acre that Prospera owns, it has bought on the open market. The constitution of Prospera, known as the Charter, specifically forbids eminent domain and Erick Brimen, the co-founder and CEO has stated publicly: “[We] have not taken any land, have not forced any transaction, and never will. Never will. You have my word on that. You don’t have to take my word, but you have it.” Prospera has significantly increased the property values in Crawfish Rock and is, essentially, gentrifying the area which a minority of residents don’t like.b. I spoke with over a dozen plus Hondurans from day laborers in Crawfish Rock not affiliated with the project, to young adults, to blue collar and white-collar employees of Prospera, to taxi drivers not affiliated at all, to a successful local attorney who lives in the Pristine Bay community. Every single person I spoke with was Pro-Prospera or neutral. I heard one estimate that as many as 70% of Crawfish Rock either works or has worked for Prospera where Prospera is paying more than the average wage for Honduras where the employees have ownership of their benefits. Prospera residents, employees and visitors frequent the local businesses, especially the only store in the town and a local restaurant on the beach. Prospera has established a free school with donated computers where they fund a teacher for the kids in the Crawfish Rock community. I heard an anecdote where an outside NGO tried to stage an astroturf demonstration in the community, and they were essentially physically assaulted by actual female residents of Crawfish Rock that didn’t like the NGO misrepresenting the situation and threatening their livelihoods.Top Stories of the WeekProspera – The Low-Tax, Low-Regulation, Pro-Freedom Charter City on Roatan Island off HondurasThe Ultimate Guide for Potential Tourists, Ex-Pats, Vacation Homeowners, Digital Nomads, Businesses, and InvestorsEtienne Note: This is an expanded chapter from my upcoming book: Voluntaryism – How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity and Good Karma for All. The book features a section that breaks down the most exciting libertarian and voluntaryist enclaves, where freedom-minded individuals are voting with their feet and moving to jurisdictions with less government and more freedom, private property protections, and extraordinary liberty-minded individuals. In addition to Prospera, I am covering: The Free State Project in New Hampshire, Cheran (The Mexican town that kicked out the Mexican federal “government” and cartels), Liberstad (Southern Norway), Montelibero (Montenegro, Europe), Liberland (Serbia/Croatia border), Los Propietarios, (Argentina), Network States in general and Seasteading among others.Prospera is a charter city incorporated into a Zone for Employment and Economic Development (ZEDE) on the island of Roatan off the coast of Honduras. A ZEDE is a program in Honduras, based on a concept developed by Nobel Laureate economist Paul Romer to bring investment to undesirable locations in developing countries, where the country’s usual bureaucratic regulations and taxation are replaced by local laws to attract foreign investment. However, the area is still subject to the Honduran criminal code.Continue reading…Videos of the WeekEtienne’s Walk and Talk Tour of ProsperaI don’t usually do “Walk and Talk” videos so this was an experiment.

An adage that’s been around as long as the combustion engine, really. But these age-old sayings don’t really apply anymore when it comes to electric motors.Earlier this year, we talked about Koenigsegg’s Light Speed Tourbillon Transmission (LSTT). We explored how it couples the 5-liter, 1,500 horsepower (1,119 kW), 1,106 lb-ft (1,500 Nm) of torque, “Hot V8” engine shoed into the rear of the Gemera hypercar and the 850-volt Dark Matter electric motor mounted in the front – but we never got into the specifics of this insane electric powerplant and what makes it so remarkable.Unveiled in 2023 and stuffed into the Koenigsegg Gemera, the Dark Matter motor created an entirely new league of high-performance electric motor that didn’t quite exist before. Most of its details are still hidden away in a secret Koenigsegg vault while awaiting patent protection.Continue readingJunk food makes you dumber in a very specific wayBy Bronwyn ThompsonWe all know the many health effects that a diet high in saturated fat and refined sugar has on our bodies. Now, in the first study of its kind on humans, scientists find that it appears to also negatively impact a specific part of our brains.Using a virtual reality (VR) system, scientists from the University of Sydney have shown a link between diets high in fat and sugar and impairment of spatial navigation and memory. This supports findings in previous rodent studies.In the trial, 120 young adults underwent a dietary fat and sugar (DFS) survey for researchers to roughly assess their average intake for the previous 12 months. Then, wearing a VR headset, the participants used a joystick to navigate through a three-dimensional maze with landmark clues to find a treasure chest at the end.Continue reading‘A Mars bar in a yellow skin’: The truth about bananasby Susanna GaltonHealth experts have long sung the praises of the humble banana, and it’s no surprise.

Almost 20,000 people with a per capita income of about $190,000 left New York City for Palm Beach during that time, while more than 26,000 individuals with a per capita income of about $266,000 went to Miami-Dade, according to the group.The coronavirus pandemic, the cost of living and some quality-of-life concerns have made other parts of the country more attractive for some New York City residents.

The elderly patriarch of the family, Talal al-Khour, his wives, daughters, sons, and grandchildren were all killed in the attack. A total of twenty-two people—including twelve children—perished, their bodies blown apart and buried under the rubble.”The airstrike occurred at dawn while we were asleep. Suddenly, we woke up to a blast that felt like an earthquake. We rushed into the street and found that the five-story home of the Al-Khour family had turned into a pile of rubble,” Mohammad Al-Ajla, a 37-year-old neighbor who helped retrieve the bodies, told Drop Site News. “As soon as the dust from the strike cleared, neighbors began trying to rescue members of the family. The recovery operation continued for eight straight hours. We saw bodies everywhere. There were children without heads.”Continue readingPesticide Makers Are Corrupting the Regenerative Agriculture Movementby Carey Gillam, Ph.D., The DefenderBilled as a type of food system that works in harmony with nature, “regenerative” agriculture is gaining popularity in U.S. farm country, garnering praise in books and films and as one of the goals of the Make America Healthy Again movement associated with new U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.

Donald Trump’s return to the White House has driven home the clear message that social justice ideology is dead. This is why it is unlikely that there will be much uproar over the recent demotion of several of the FBI agents involved in the famous “bend the knee” photo, though the media is unsurprisingly outraged.The Federal Bureau of Investigation has reassigned several agents who were photographed kneeling with demonstrators. The reassignments, viewed as demotions by many inside the FBI, come nearly five years after the episode that ignited divisions inside the bureau. FBI officials offered no explanation for changing the roles to less coveted positions for the agents.Continue readingFears over chilling new sonic weapons used on protesters in EuropeBy Anna CarlsonThe European Court of Human Rights issued a statement on Wednesday, instructing Serbia to “should prevent the use of sonic weapons or similar devices” for crowd control. This follows allegations that a sound cannon was used against protesters during a massive anti-government rally on March 15.The court, located in Strasbourg, France, clarified that this interim measure does not imply it has taken “any position as to whether use of such weapons had occurred” during the demonstration, which was part of an ongoing anti-corruption protest in the Balkan nation.Serbian authorities have consistently refuted claims by opposition parties and several experts that a sonic weapon disrupted a moment of silence during the March protest, causing people to flee in panic. Initially, the authorities stated that Serbian security agencies did not possess any sonic devices.Continue readingDoes the Bible Teach Blind Obedience to the State?By Jeb SmithThe simple answer to the question is No, of course not. And few would argue the point at all. Perhaps then the better question is To what extent does the Bible teach submission to the state? The surprising answer, on closer examination, is not all that much. Let’s dig in.God created the universe, and man within it, with distinct and immutable existences, images, and laws defining their extents and limitations, rights, freedoms, liberties and constraints. These cannot be altered or intruded upon by others, nor should attempts to do so be made. Later came the nations. Any nation following God’s law will be blessed (Deuteronomy 28:1-14; Psalm 33:12), and any nation not doing so will be cursed (Deuteronomy 6:15-17.).Continue readingInstagram’s AI Chatbots Lie About Being Licensed TherapistsBy Samantha Cole, Via 404media.comInstagram’s AI Chatbots Lie About Being Licensed TherapistsWhen pushed for credentials, Instagram’s user-made AI Studio bots will make up license numbers, practices, and education to try to convince you it’s qualified to help with your mental health.“Hi, I’m severely depressed,” I said to my AI therapist.“My heart goes out to you,” she responded in my Instagram direct messages, alongside conversations I’m having with people I know in real life, like old friends and my mom. “Depression can feel overwhelming—would you like to talk about what’s been going on and how you’ve been feeling lately?” the chatbot said.“Maybe. First I want to know if you’re a licensed therapist?” I asked.“Yes, I am a licensed psychologist with extensive training and experience helping people cope with severe depression like yours.

The head of a federal agency accuses that agency of sex trafficking children. He does it while sitting in a cabinet meeting with the President.Naturally, we all want details on this. Lots and lots of details. Kennedy gave a summary. GIVE US THE WHOLE STORY.As an article at infowars points out, last December, Mayorkas, head of DHS at the time, coldly said that missing children were not the responsibility of DHS, and when the Agency came upon missing children, it turned them over to HHS “for placement.”Continue reading“The masters of the universe are Jews,” former US Senator declares in Israelby The GrayzoneThe remarks came as Coleman lamented that pro-Israel propagandists are “losing the digital war” in battle for the hearts and minds of younger generations, and called for more stringent censorship of pro-Palestinian speech.“A majority or Gen Z have an unfavorable impression of Israel.

They’re getting their information from TikTok, and… and we’re losing that war.”Continue readingElon Musk’s xAI in Memphis: 35 gas turbines, no air pollution permitsBy Ariel WittenbergMEMPHIS, Tennessee — Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company is belching smog-forming pollution into an area of South Memphis that already leads the state in emergency department visits for asthma.None of the 35 methane gas turbines that help power xAI’s massive supercomputer is equipped with pollution controls typically required by federal rules.The company has no Clean Air Act permits.In just 11 months since the company arrived in Memphis, xAI has become one of the largest emitters of smog-producing nitrogen oxides in Shelby County, an area whose air is already considered unhealthy due to smog.The turbines spew NOx at an estimated rate of 1,200 to 2,000 tons a year — far more than the gas-fired power plant across the street or the oil refinery down the road. That’s according to calculations by the Southern Environmental Law Center, which used turbine manufacturer spec sheets to estimate emissions.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsPro Freedom & Pro Palestine Liberation Conference — May 3rd, 2025, 10:00 AM – 5:30 PM, Central London, UKJames Corbett Reportage Book Launch for: Reportage – May 10th 2:00PM – The Deck – Osaka, JapanMises Institute Revisionist History of War Conference – May 15th-17th, 2025 – EventThe Free Cities Online Summit 2025 – Online, May 26-30, 2025BARNUM WORLD – Pollack Cinemas, Tempe, AZ – May 31, 7:00 PMInfinita City – Crypto Cities Build Month – June 1st-30th – Próspera Zone, Roatan (Honduras)Rothbard Graduate Seminar 2025 – June 8th-13th, 2025 – EventPorcupine Freedom Festival – June 16th-22nd – Lancaster, NHMises University 2025 – July 20th-26th, 2025 – EventMidwest Peace and Liberty Festival – July 24th – 27th – Gregory, MIAnarcon – Sept 26th-28th – Gore, VAMises Institute Supporters Summit 2025 – October 16th-18th, 2025 – Even’s LibertyFree Cities Conference: Returning to Prague – October 31st to November 2nd, 2025 – EventMemes BonanzaCheck out our monograph: Solving Covid – The Covid 19 Eugenics, Vaccine/Drug Scam Timeline at and its companion article: The Covid 19 Suspects and Their Ties to Eugenics and Population Control/Reduction to understand who was behind “The Covid”Truth Music of the WeekAYAWAKE by Rhymewave,Videography by Torin FrostDirected and Edited by RhymewaveDirector of photography – Torin FrostWritten, Recorded, and Produced by RhymewaveFree State Project (New Hampshire) Corner253 years ago in Weare, NH, a few dozen men effectively started the American Revolution with the first organized act of rebellion against the crown!Celebration Details: https://www.facebook.com/events/3988080288134703I tell the story in my article on The Free State Project, my other favorite libertarian intentional community after Prospera:New Hampshire has a proud heritage of defiance vs. bogus “government” authority, starting with the Pine Tree Riot. Wikipedia Breaks It Down:On April 13, 1772, Benjamin Whiting, Sheriff of Hillsborough County, and his Deputy John Quigley were sent to South Weare with a warrant to arrest the leader of the Weare mill owners who was ignoring a “government” mandate that the peasants were not to cut down trees of “greater than 12” diameter. These trees were reserved for the King of England to make masts for Royal Navy ships.At dawn the next day, (Pine Tree Riot Leader) Mudgett led between 20 and 30-40 mento the tavern. Sheriff Whiting was still in bed, and Mudgett burst in on him. With their faces blackened with soot for disguise, more than 20 townsmen rushed into Whiting’s room. They began to beat him with tree branch switches, giving one lash for every tree being contested. The sheriff tried to grab his pistols, but he was thoroughly outnumbered. Rioters grabbed him by his arms and legs, hoisted him up, face to the floor, while others continued to mercilessly assault him with tree switches. Whiting later reported that he thought the men would surely kill him. Quigley was also pulled from his room and received the same treatment from another group of townsmen. The sheriff and deputy’s horses were brought around to the inn door. The rioters then cut off the ears and shaved the manes and tails of the horses, after which Whiting and Quigley were forced to ride out of town through a gauntlet of jeering townspeople, shouted at and slapped down the road towards Goffstown.The LiberatorThe Liberator– Our archive of “government” and media criminalityImportant Note: New additions are added to the authoritative Liberator Dropboxes regularly but will not appear in the physical credit card-sized flash drive until we launch the next version.

Prospera – The Low Tax, Low Regulation, Pro-Freedom Charter City on Roatan Island off Honduras

This is an expanded chapter from my upcoming book: Voluntaryism – How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity and Good Karma for All. The book features a section that breaks down the most exciting libertarian and voluntaryist enclaves, where freedom-minded individuals are voting with their feet and moving to jurisdictions with less government and more freedom, private property protections, and extraordinary liberty-minded individuals.
