Today we continue a series on reclaiming our sovereignty as individuals.  We started out with the education system, then last week we covered the food system, today we cover our minds.  Honestly this should have been the first episode in our “Insurgency Series” because in reality it is the most important. While we are also going to delve into health care, energy and other systems of control the reality is all such control stems from the control of our minds.  It is not an over reach to say that at this point in time Americans and most first world individuals … Continue reading →

I often say that people should start a business as part of a self sufficiency plan.  The truth is the majority of what I know is available for free at JackSpirko.com (warning the language is far more adult there than at TSP). In fact I have been asked many times to do more podcasts over there and I have refused. The reason is simple, I have stated many times the day a person does everything I have already given there, has implemented it into their business and still wants more, I will do another episode.  So far, no one has … Continue reading →

Today a call to arms, it is time to draw a line in the soil! Today we live in a world where the majority of our food contains known toxic substances.  Slowly even the establishment is admitting this.  Such as the WHO finally admitting that RoundUp (the most popular herbicide in agriculture) likely causes cancer, WHO Admission Here.   Keep in mind anything with soy as an ingredient in the US that is not certified organic likely contains significant amounts of Roundup, as soy is mostly now a “round up ready” crop. Several years ago in a US Federal Court in … Continue reading →
