Tucker Carlson follows RFK Jr and delivers a memorable speech outlining the patriotism of President Donald Trump and his love for American and the people. Tucker rifs in his familiar sarcasm pointed directly toward the governing officials who lie as a profession. WATCH:

Tonight, Robert F Kennedy Jr delivered a speech at the MAGA rally at Madison Square Garden. After reminiscing about the Democrat party losing their way, RFK Jr explains why he has left the democrat party and decided to endorse President Donald Trump.
During his remarks about how the Democrats are now the party of totalitarian communists, RFK Jr blamed Democrats for the Patriot Act and the subsequent surveillance state they support. WATCH:

During the rushed debate over the Patriot Act, was when I first heard political officials talking about the importance of “continuity of government.”
I immediately recognized what all these DC voices were describing was a construct of a post-911 government that would exist and maintain itself without the elected representatives of WeThe People.
The intelligence gathering and homeland security system put into place after the Patriot Act was passed, is a bureaucratic administrative state without the presence of elected officials controlling the apparatus. That leads to the following question:
That question is at the heart of our current situation.
That question is at the epicenter of this “new American democracy” that no one seems to understand.
The simple answer is it cannot.
We have been fighting this three-headed IC monster (DHS, DNI, DOJ-NSD) ever since.
This reality the underlying predicate behind why Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the Special Counsel charges against Trump. This reality is also the underlying framework behind why the Supreme Court recently reaffirmed the plenary power of the President with control over the executive.
In the post-9/11 system that was created by the Patriot Act, our Constitutional Republic was inextricably fractured, placing systems and silos in charge of government under the auspices of “continuity of government.”
From that moment forth, elected representatives no longer held authority or oversight *over* the national security apparatus. Instead, the Patriot Act flipped the actual system of democratically elected representative government.
The RESULT: Our elected officials became subservient to the institutional interests of unelected agency officials. As Senator Schumer calls them “the six ways from Sunday” coalition.
This reality empirically surfaces with people like former AG Bill Barr saying the President does not have unilateral authority over the DOJ. Also, the Lawfare approach and narrative that a President is not the arbiter of governing power. Both statements are constitutionally false, as affirmed by SCOTUS – Thank God.
Understand this. This is the root of the cancer that was always present, silent and lurking in the background institutions prior to 9/11. After the Patriot Act passed, that cancer fully metastasized and entered the bloodstream of American governance.
What was previously a slimy bag of institutional snakes, kept in place by a tenuously worn nylon bag – sewn from the remaining fabric of our constitution, was released by the Patriot Act.
Everything thereafter, including the constant bites we suffer from the unleashed weaponization, is a consequence of that moment.
That’s the root of our modern political reality.
This is the “new American democracy,” where the unelected officials and administrators within institutions hold power.
Under this Patriot Act framework, representative government [executive branch, legislative branch and even the judicial branch] are subservient to those who use the shield of national security. This outcome is the direct consequence of creating a system for the “continuity of government.”
LEARN IT!
Then, suddenly, everything about the domestic enemy we confront gets really clear.
.
Thankfully, the Supreme Court has now given indications that they understand what has taken place.
The Supreme Court has recently affirmed that only the President of the United States has the authority to control the Executive Branch. As a direct and consequential outcome, only the President of the United States can remove the core issue that has corrupted our constitutional intent.
Every element vested in the “continuity of government” as a manipulation of the constitution are now aligned to eliminate the threat President Donald Trump represents.
We have one chance.
Vote like your freedom depends on it, because it does.
Read the SCOTUS opinion, not from a point of view of President Trump, but from the point of view of what does this allow him to do in his second term, and what invisible straightjackets did it remove that were a threat during his first term?
While impeachment is a political process within the Legislative Branch, and the Supreme Court is extremely hesitant to overstep their role therein, the High Court did put this sentiment clearly into the opinion about immunity: …“The President is not above the law. But Congress may not criminalize the President’s conduct in carrying out the responsibilities of the Executive Branch under the Constitution.”…
Congress may not criminalize the conduct of the President simply for carrying out his core executive branch duties.
Removal of Executive Branch officials is a core duty, an official act, carrying absolute immunity.
That affirmed reality is exactly why the Deep State and Lawfare crowd are very alarmed.
Despite the insufferable Jake Tapper parseltongue, JD Vance does a great job of hitting back against the fraudulent narratives promoted by CNN and the narrative engineer Jake Tapper. I’m actually warming up to JD Vance as a result of these combative interviews. Within the interview the next Vice President of the United States confronts the Tapper spin and fraud that comes from his lips.
John Kelly, James Mattis and their military tribe of war managers, are like managers of Blockbuster Video stores demanding their industrial military purpose has value against a completely new video-on-demand digital streaming world. A complete paradigm shift where President Trump uses economic weapons to ensure national security objectives. The hammers fundamentally cannot function without nails, because in a world where President Trump’s doctrine exists their skillset has little value. That is the source of their opposition.
Jake Tapper is defending the Blockbuster Video business model on behalf of the Blockbuster Video managers. The result is what follows. WATCH:

Once you see the strings on the political marionettes, you can never return to that moment in the performance when you did not see them….
The Conservative Tree House may be called a Last Refuge for each of us for different reasons. Whatever trail through the woods brought us here, we have shared the turmoil of storms as we have been finding our voices as individuals in this growing community
Perhaps you’ve had some truly shockingly cruel things said to you purely because you believe in limited government and fiscal conservatism. Perhaps you not only believe that we should be self-reliant and personally responsible, but also believe that when we are allowed to depend on ourselves, we are stronger, more successful, take greater pride in ourselves and our work, and are more likely to make positive contributions to society. And then we are happier people, or at least more likely to be happier.
Which lends to the following theory: Fear is at the core of modern leftism, and love/trust is at the core of conservatism. Modern liberalism, most commonly evolved to leftism, is about control. Conservatism is about self-empowerment.
The need for control is always a reaction to fear. Think in terms or politics and society – the fear behind liberalism is the fear that someone might withhold things (opportunities, money, whatever) from me, fear that if you live your life in a way I dislike, it might affect my life; fear that if you get that job, there will be nothing left for me. Fear that if you make tons of money, it’s means there’s less money out there for me. So, people who believe in leftist ideologies seek control as a means of trying to create guarantees and safeguards against those circumstances they fear.
Modern “liberals”, leftists, try to control the world and people to enable their comfort and happiness. Which, as we know, is an endless quest. Trying to control others does nothing in the way of making oneself happy. By extension, voting in this mindset so that government can try to control others will also – shocking – not lead to a happier, more comfortable life.
The conservative (and moderate, independent, but for the sake of expediency, the conservative), on the other hand, relies on himself to meet his own needs. And the tradeoff of being free to live his life as he wishes is also understanding that he has to make peace with how you live yours. By extension, aware that he wants to be able to hold onto this liberty and freedom forever, the conservative votes accordingly, so that everyone can remain free and in charge of his or her own life.
But here’s the crucial difference, perhaps, particularly where misery on the left stems: The conservative does not worry, so to speak, about you.
The conservative knows that you were born with the same access to self-love, self-empowerment, self-determination and self-reliance that we all were, no matter the circumstances into which you were born. (Think about the millions of people this country has allowed to crawl up from poverty into prosperity – the conservative KNOWS this is possible.) And the conservative believes that if you want prosperity, or a good job, or a good education, you can make it happen – but you have to work hard.
The conservative hopes and intends that the free markets bring you all of the affordable and positive opportunities and resources that you need. The conservative also knows that on the other side of that hard work is great reward – material and, more importantly, emotional, spiritual and mental.
The conservative understands that not only is it a waste of time to try to control you, but it’s also actually impossible. Humans were born to be free. And if we put a roadblock in front of you, you’ll find another way around it. So, we see attempts at control as a waste of resources, energy and time at best, and at worst, creating detrimental results that serve to hinder people’s upward mobility or teach dependence. We see much more efficiency, as well as endless opportunity, in leaving you to your own devices. And we want the same in return.
This is where modern democrats’ mis-view conservatives as heartless. But really, the conservative believes that there is one and one path only to sustainable success and independence – and that is self-empowerment. All other avenues – welfare, affirmative action, housing loans you can’t actually afford – ultimately risk doing a disservice to people as they teach dependence on special circumstances, the govt, or arbitrary assistance (that can disappear tomorrow). And the real danger – they will ALWAYS backfire and leave the recipient in equally or more dire circumstances. Any false improvement will always expire.
The conservative believes in abundance. The liberal believes in scarcity.
The conservative believes man is born free and will be who he is, no matter what arbitrary limitations or rules are put on him. The leftist believes man is perfectible, and by extension, believes a society at large is perfectible, and command and control are justified in the quest to a “perfect” utopian society. (Sounds familiar!)
The conservative tends to be more faithful – and not necessarily in God, but in the ability of the individual to find great strength in himself (or from his God) to get what he needs and to be successful. Therefore, the conservative has an outlet for his fear and disappointment – trust and faith in something bigger.
The leftist believes the system must be perfected in order to enable success. Therefore, disappointment is channeled as anger and blame at the system. Voids are left to be filled by faith in the govt, which they surely then want to come in and “fix” things.
And therein lies the roots of love and fear respectively. For the conservative, when life presents great struggles, he knows he has the power to surmount them. Happiness stems from internal strength and perseverance. For the modern leftist, when life presents great struggles, the system failed, therefore they were at the mercy of a faulty system, and they believe that only when the system is fixed can their life improve. Happiness is built on systemic contingencies, which they will then seek to control or expect someone else to.
One blames himself. The other blames anyone and everyone but himself.
And there it is. There’s where the meanness comes from. The leftist ideology causes that person to cast anger at the world when things go wrong or appear “unfair.” He constantly chooses only to see the “injustices” – and that makes for a very miserable, mean, blame-casting existence.
One last point that we have seen over and over and over with many (not all) of our leftist friends: Extreme stinginess and cheapness.
In our conservative community growing up, we were always taught that you give when people are in need – make donations to the Red Cross when there’s an earthquake, donate to charity when you can afford it, etc. Even if it’s just $50 here and there – it’s the right thing to do. Conservatives see this as the responsibility that comes with gaining from the capitalistic system; if you happen to benefit greatly from the system, it’s your duty to give back.
The liberal, on the other hand, does not seem to share this same viewpoint, at least not in my experience. And perhaps think this is linked to believing in scarcity, and that your dollar comes at the cost of mine. So, it seems that liberals, on some level of consciousness, feel guilty about not being voluntarily charitable. Therefore, to write off their guilt, they outsource their “generosity” to the government by voting for wealth re-distributive policies. Thus, the liberal cheats himself of the joy and addictiveness of direct generosity. (Not to mention – re distributive policies ALWAYS end up dis-empowering those who they’re meant to help.)
However each of us got here, it’s probably a fact that we have the turmoil of those storms in common, perhaps some unease that we could share and always, we also find fresh ground to cover from day to day. We’re developing valuable relationships as we trust one another in our community in the woods. The chatting in the branches encourages, strengthens and equips for some serious walking.
We think the Treehouse is a good armory for those who doing long distance walking for the sake of our nation. We hope you’ll think so, too. Find yourself a good branch….or just pull up a rock to the campfire.
Enjoy your Sunday with my warmest personal regards.
Always steadfast,

A reader sent this in without a comment. This was a rather famous crime in Poland that some used and blamed the Ukrainians when they had nothing to do with it. This was a 1923 crime in Poland during the economic crisis that engulfed the whole region with hyperinflation, which stemmed also from Germany. Unemployment was massive and the economy was in shambled. There was a band of “Roma” gypsies who were stealing food and animals in villages across Poland. Marianna Dolinska was 32 at the time with four children. In December 1923, her husband was arrested, leaving Marianna and her four children with no support. This was the period when many peasants’ children died of starvation. Marianna was distraught and assumed that she and her children would die of starvation. On December 11th, 1923, Marianna hung all four of her children with the same rope by tying it around the base of a tree trunk in the woods near Antoniowka. The next day, Marianna went to the police station in Kozlow, confessed to the murder of her children, and led investigators back to the tree where their bodies were hanging.
A police photographer took the photo you see here. The case became one of the most high-profile criminal cases in the Second Polish Republic. However, this photo was used on the cover of a book containing photographs depicting crimes by the Ukranian Insurgent Army (UPA) entitled Ludobojstwo UPA na Ludnosci Polskiej (which translates: Genocide Against the Polish Population by UPA). This was from 1923 – not 1943. It did not reflect the Massacre of Poles in Volhynia, which began in March of 1943 and ended in 1944. The estimated civilians that were ethnically cleansed by the Ukraians was between 35,000 and 60,000 Polish people. The majority were women and children.
This photo was misused for it did not reflect the crimes of the Ukrainians and the UPA’s Massacre of Poles in Volhynia,
which was so horrible it even shocked the Germans.

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, I have family in Kyiv, and as you have reported, they are unhappy with Volodymyr Zelenskyy. I am not sure who is pulling his strings, but he is a threat to Ukraine. As you have pointed out, they had their freedom. Attacking the Donbas was not for the people’s benefit. It seems that anyone who tells the truth is attacked as putting out Russian propaganda. He has shut down all the press that even questioned what was going on in Ukraine.
I wish more people would open their eyes. Thank you for trying.
ANSWER: It is not Russian propaganda but Neocon propaganda that we need to be worried about, just like the weapons of mass destruction of Saddam that never existed or the Russians that were never behind Vietnam. When the war just began, I reported that 100,000 Ukrainians had been killed in the first few months. The emails came in accusing me of putting out Russian propaganda. It did not matter that my sources were from Ukraine. Then, the head of the EU gave the same number. Zelensky made her take that out, claiming it was classified information. Here is the original clip and the edited one. This was NOT Russian propaganda.
Even Ukrainian TV has reported that over 1 million Ukrainians have been killed in this war, and for what? So Blackrock can buy up all the farmland? Zelensky is asking for nuclear weapons. He knows that Russia would then have no choice but to annihilate Ukraine. Putin would be justified in responding just as President Kennedy responded in 1962 because of nuclear weapons being stationed in Cuba.
The Ukrainian People Deserve to Decide their own Fate, not one dictated by the Neocons in the USA or NATO.
Zelensky has been asking to JOIN NATO, which is instant World War III
or give him nuclear weapons. This is just unimaginable!
Ukraine should have been split according to ethnicity, the same as the fall of Yugoslavia. Just as a Serb killed the archduke and heir to Austria in Seriavo and started World War I, the ethnic hatred in this region can only be suppressed by division.
