00:00:15.040And when he gave that speech, he gave it in support of his motion in the legislature of Virginia to form county militias across the colony, across Virginia.
00:00:25.260And that motion prevailed, and then Patrick Kennedy himself became the first commander of the Hanover County Militia, the county where he lived.
00:00:33.300So that's the balancing act that they undertook, to see the awful truth in front of you, but to not give up, not despair, and then do something about it.
00:00:43.820And their answer was local organizing at the town and county level and in the churches.
00:04:04.660I want to talk about what America stands for, why it's worth fighting for, and then what we face and the latest situations and developments in the world, Stuart Rhodes.
00:04:12.800Yeah, like Robert Barnes had said, and you were saying earlier, the bad guys want us to despair.
00:04:19.020So there's something I want to read to you.
00:04:21.040Back in 1772, it's an exchange between Patriot organizer James Warren and John Adams, or Sam Adams, actually.
00:04:29.640James Warren was traveling from town to town in Massachusetts, urging the formation of committees of correspondence,
00:04:36.100but found a combination of apathy and fear in the towns, with many local merchants opposing the patriots and their cause,
00:04:42.560because the merchants were doing well financially under the corrupt and increasingly oppressive British government.
00:04:50.040So he wrote back to Sam Adams and said,
00:04:52.120I shall not fail to exert myself to have as many towns as possible meet in committees of correspondence,
00:04:58.080but I fear the bigger part of them will not. They are dead, and the dead can't be raised without a
00:05:04.780miracle. And Sam Adams replied back, nil desperandum, never despair. That is a motto for you and me.
00:05:13.460All are not dead, and where there is a spark of patriotic fire, we will rekindle it. And that was
00:05:19.8801772, just less than three years before the fighting began in the American Revolution.
00:05:26.000But they were going through a period where they were having a hard time getting their fellow Americans up off their ass and organized.
00:05:33.420And they had a lot of apathy and, frankly, a lot of people benefiting from the corrupt system they were under.
00:05:38.940And so we find ourselves in that same exact position right now.
00:05:42.420And so a lot of Americans throwing up their hands and despairing.
00:05:45.480When I was knocking on doors for Thomas Massey in his primary campaign in Kentucky, a lot of the folks we talked to just don't vote anymore because they don't think it makes a difference.
00:05:54.460And so the founding generation, just three years before the kickoff of the American Revolution, were feeling the exact same way.
00:06:02.640And they were seeing apathy and they were seeing fear, people afraid to organize, afraid to get out there.
00:06:12.340And like Sam Adams also said, it does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men.
00:06:24.000And he knows that because he lived it.
00:07:53.040And when he gave that speech, he gave it in support of his motion in the legislature of Virginia to form county militias across the colony, across Virginia.
00:08:03.660And that motion prevailed, and then Patrick Kennedy himself became the first commander of the Hanover County Militia, the county where he lived.
00:08:10.940So that's the balancing act that they undertook, to see the awful truth in front of you, but to not give up, not despair, and then do something about it.
00:08:21.800And their answer was local organizing at the town and county level and in the churches.
00:09:26.580We have a corrupt and manifestly corrupt and evil system over us, I'd say, starting with the Federal Reserve, the Rothschild family.
00:09:35.960In fact, long before that, the Rothschilds were already, through their banking, controlling the governments of Europe and then, in large part, the governments of the United States, even back in the early 1800s.
00:09:47.240And so I think we have to see that for what it really is.
00:09:49.780And the Federal Reserve was the capstone on that.
00:09:52.860So, so long as we have a Federal Reserve over us, which is just not federal and not a reserve,
00:09:58.140just a bunch of bankers with a rough challenge at their head, controlling our money system,
00:10:02.800and so long as we have the CIA now, and then now they want to merge us with, you know,
00:10:08.000CIA merged with Assad and U.S. military merged with Israeli military,
00:10:11.860all of these things are indicators of how far the long train of abuses has come in our day.
00:10:17.980So we have to be willing to see it and see the awful truth of it,
00:10:38.880They took over their local county governments.
00:10:40.860They started the Communities of Correspondence, which was their shadow government, their government in waiting when they became independent.
00:10:47.400That's what turned into the Continental Congress.
00:15:21.180They can never show how these these extra they're part of the experiment.
00:15:25.720See, they're trying to add things to the experiment, too.
00:15:27.380They're trying to say, here's socialism. Let's put that in the experiment.
00:15:30.360And then we're going, well, show us where this experiment works somewhere else.
00:15:33.920And they can never do that. And so they keep trying to add, you know, whatever to that, that experiment, the socialist elements into the experiment of this country.
00:15:43.360And we're like, no, this doesn't work here. It doesn't work when you open borders.
00:15:47.320Look what this does. Now we've got 20 million people in the last four years that have come in.
00:15:51.020That doesn't work. So how do we get them out?
00:15:52.960Well, we have to send people in to get them out.
00:15:55.400And then if you have states that aren't working and cities that aren't working with the law enforcement to bring people out,
00:16:01.760then then, hey, you've got to go in and grab these people and pull them out because you can't just said, well, we're not going to do anything.
00:16:07.960We're just going to bitch about it, but not do anything.
00:21:25.080Are we going to go, you know, basically not rugged individualist, but a rugged individualist mentality that is going to create more innovation, which is going to make our lives better?
00:21:37.520Because our lives got better with people inventing stuff in their garages, not giant corporations, you know, coming in and gathering all the wealth.
00:21:53.040They don't want you to look at it and go, wow, we have something special that no one else has.
00:21:58.000And, you know, we have a country where we can literally decide we want to mint our own silver coins and we can make that happen.
00:22:07.240I don't even know where else you could do that.
00:22:08.920A small company could go, hey, I want to mint some silver coins and then like sell them to the people who like the message of what this coin represents.
00:22:17.080You know, when I was a kid, you used to get a bicentennial quarter and it celebrated the 200th anniversary of America.
00:22:22.800And when you got one, you flipped it over and you saw it was a bicentennial.
00:22:26.660And you were like, wow, it just gave you that cool feeling of 200 years.
00:22:45.660And the thing is, oh, well, they misuse American pride for bad stuff.
00:22:48.280Yeah, you have to be the representative of America.
00:22:50.440As Thomas Jefferson said, let's go to Stuart Rhodes for the next 10 minutes, and we'll go back to Rob in closing.
00:22:56.540More about America, more of what needs to be done, and the lay of the land currently, where the republic is in the battle space.
00:23:02.520Stuart Rhodes, founder of Oath Keepers, that he's relaunched. Be sure to tell us about that.
00:23:06.720Yeah, I want to build on what you both were talking about.
00:23:09.260First, with Alex, your own family history there in Texas, right, part of the revolution, that helps give you strength.
00:23:16.120And it's important for us to remember where we came from, you know, whether it's in your personal family, your relatives, like my side of the family, you know, both sides of my family fought in World War II.
00:23:26.040That helped get me through my imprisonment.
00:23:28.560And thinking back to the men in the prison ships in New York Harbor and Boston Harbor, the American Revolutionaries suffering in the cold down in the hold of those horrible ships.
00:23:40.160So all of the POWs in our history going forward, that's how I kept from feeling sorry for myself.
00:23:45.640Like, what I'm going through is nothing compared to that.
00:23:51.160They put a lot of their families on the ships and starved them to death, and also in concentration camps, including the mother and older brother of Andrew Jackson, who was in the war when he was, like, 10 years old as a message runner and later as a sniper.
00:24:08.760So that's the thing is that we should look back and remember where we came from.
00:24:14.000Remember who came before us in our own families, but also as a country.
00:24:18.360That's why I would encourage you to get two books here I really recommend that everyone read.
00:24:22.020This one's called As If an Enemy's Country, and it's about the lead-up to the Boston Massacre,
00:24:28.380the British occupation of Boston, 1768 to 1770, and leading up to the massacre.
00:24:34.960And it goes through a lot of the background of what happened, the agitation in the streets,
00:24:39.560The protests, the tarring feathering of tax protesters, all of that was the lead up to the actual revolution.
00:24:46.120And the other one I recommend is this one here, David McCullough, 1776.
00:24:50.540A fantastic book about that first year of the war and leading up to the Declaration of Independence and then the aftermath after the Declaration.
00:24:58.960So it's important for us to know that history because what we're seeing in front of us and what they saw, nothing new under the sun.
00:25:05.400It's human nature, you know, like Rob was talking about.
00:25:08.400So these socialists, they're being brainwashed into actually supporting the destruction of the greatest engine of liberty, freedom in the world and prosperity.
00:25:21.240You know, the American Revolution lit the spark.
00:25:23.740That was the shot heard around the world because after that, regime after regime, monarchy after monarchy around the world fell.
00:25:32.240Monarchy fell after that and ruled by the people, as flawed as it might be, became ascendant.
00:25:39.160And so the communists and people that are tricked into socialism and communism are being tricked into destroying that and going back to rule by the few over the many.
00:25:50.640They just dress it in shiny stuff, make it look good, put lipstick on a pig, and tell you this is how you get to be more prosperous and more free as an individual.
00:26:00.040when all it does is lead right back to the same kind of slavery that people lived under absolute power under emperors and kings and dictators.
00:26:09.840Right. People always say Mondami and communism has failed and they're stupid.
00:26:13.800No, this communist is a known slave technique of slave master criminal organizations funded by the Rothschilds.
00:26:22.260When serfdom was ending, they had to have a way to con the farmer served slaves back into slavery that they wrote about it.
00:29:28.840He said, perseverance is the defining characteristic of the American people that led them to fight and stick with it and, you know, go all the way across the continent, settle wilderness.
00:29:41.620that took perseverance, not giving up. And I think that's important to remember. You have
00:29:47.540got to persevere. You've got to make a commitment to yourself that you will not give up. Just the
00:29:53.600other day, I heard about a guy, another J6er that I started prison time with, Nick, who committed
00:29:59.160suicide, sadly. And so that's the ultimate, you know, the ultimate betrayal, the ultimate
00:30:07.760But manipulation is for them to get you to give up so badly that you commit suicide.
00:30:44.240I think it's a final point that I'm going to go to an important interview that we did
00:30:47.280yesterday about solutions in our body, getting in shape, detoxifying.
00:30:51.720There's so many ways to take control, not just taking down the New World Order in one
00:30:54.660big fell swoop, but just getting our heads screwed on, getting closer to God, spending
00:30:58.260time with our families, not letting ourselves get angry, which I do, loving each other,
00:31:02.600forgiving each other, knowing we're all on the same team.
00:31:04.760But I wanted to hit this and tell people how to get involved in Oath Keepers, which you've relaunched to or give those URLs out.
00:31:09.600I'll be able to find you on the web to energize that you're doing even more.
00:31:14.320They've got one battle after the other.
00:31:16.180They've got a movie about the J6 being put out by Sean Penn about the BS, you know, about political police.
00:31:23.400They had the Civil War movie they produced three years ago that came out right before the midterms and right before the general election, where they have a civil war to take down the evil Trump figure.
00:31:33.020They want to have a fake civil war race base in America.
00:31:36.600They don't want us to come together in a velvet revolution of understanding, running for office, getting involved, promoting our ideals that are superior to the Great Reset tyranny.
00:31:46.100I mean, we're handing out free ice water in the Sahara.
00:31:51.540Can you speak to the left and then to also the issues with Trump and Israel trying to take over the U.S. military and where that fight is right now, Stuart Rhodes,
00:32:00.640and what Americans need to do as we continue the American Revolution.
00:32:47.180So rather than looking with contempt on them, I know it's easy to do that, but look at them instead, as a Christian especially, look at them as like, hey, no man's beyond redemption.
00:33:17.980Like, you know, I missed this morning, but I'm going to go do some hill sprints here in just a little bit and train with kettlebells.
00:33:22.900It's important for us to become strong, mind, body, and spirit.
00:33:27.260And at the same time, to reach out to other, men especially.
00:33:31.060Men have got to start associating with each other and reach out to other men to work out together and get strong together, mind, body, and spirit.
00:33:38.660Because you don't know what's going on in that guy's head.
00:33:41.300A lot of times, us guys won't talk about what's going on.
00:33:44.020Next thing you know, he just commits suicide because he's not talking.
00:34:26.780I totally agree, because Israel is very smart to have their operatives, Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, and others, attack me, attack everybody else, get Trump to call us names.
00:35:03.300So it's very important to do this from a position of civilization, of freedom, and just promote general liberty and good policies and say we've got a big tent for everybody.
00:35:15.880Stuart, how do they find Oath Keepers?
00:35:17.740It's such a great organization now, rebuilding.
00:37:21.540openly want to discredit it. The elites don't like the idea of America because it allows the
00:37:26.620little people to have meritocracy and develop their own wealth and their own independence.
00:37:31.980The globalists want neo-feudalism. They want serfdom. They want a great reset to control us.
00:37:37.260So they've been trying to undermine this country, demonize this country, and blame all the problems
00:37:41.500in the world on the freedom of America and the West and Christianity and white people.
00:37:46.160but it's not working the world is awakening to the great reset and we are in the great awakening
00:37:53.860that's why it's so important on our 250 anniversary that we remember what made america great and that
00:37:59.760we continue those values on in the face of tyranny because the ideas we're promoting work and are
00:38:06.260pro-human are dynamic and unleash the incredible competition of the human spirit and meritocracy
00:38:12.740If we don't stand up for not just 1776 here in the U.S., but worldwide, then we allow the globalists, the megabanks with their transhumanist death cult depopulation agenda to come in and sell their lie of collectivism, universal basic incomes, cashless society, control grids, the social credit scores and the entire system of dehumanization that they're establishing.
00:38:38.500We are literally facing freedom or slavery.
