  • Ep65: Attitudes of Occupying Martial Governors
    Jul 6 2024

    A reading and commentary on Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr’s By Tyranny Out of Necessity: The Bastardy of Martial Law, Chapter 4, Part 2.

    Embrace the paradox and see through false appearances. Learn to discern deception and false hope while remaining hopeful of a better life and way of being. The Way is in training, and the path of personal discipline leads to enduring wealth, as well as commonwealth by first securing the blessings of liberty in a free state for yourself and posterity.

    The arrogance of rogue public officials see We The People as tax cattle to be fleeced. Unconstitutional bureaucracies have plans for imposing martial governance in territory they already occupy.

    What can We The People do in such a scenario?

    What do the foundational charter documents say about constitutional order under a supreme law that is, contrary to democracy, specifically limited to things of a public nature?

    How can We The People assert local self-governance amid rampant abuse by these arrogant occupiers?

    The solution comes down to individual daily disciplines.

    First, discipline your mind:

  • Ep64: Colorful Rationales for Rogue Martial Law
    Jun 29 2024

    A reading and commentary on Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr’s By Tyranny Out of Necessity: The Bastardy of Martial Law, Chapter 4, Part 1.

    What narratives will the political caste employ to impose “martial governance” upon We The People?

    How do these justifications square with legitimate legal principles and constitutional order?

    How will rogue public officers label “the good people” that rightfully resist official corruption and criminality?

    Can you imagine citizens being treated like belligerents under international laws of war with complete disregard for civil rights?

    Do you see signs of a police-state being formed now?

    What remedies could free people resort to in the face of tyranny?

    What are you ready to do to reassert constitutional governance and secure the blessings of liberty?

    Remember, We The People are “the government” and not just those holding public office. We The People have the right and duty to alter or abolish any government that is destructive of the ends for which it was formed. Martial governance under international laws of war is incompatible with the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. The two cannot coexist.

    Therefore, those seeking to impose “martial governance” are doing so not as government officials exercising constitutional delegated authority, but as criminals and tyrants.

    Yet there is a constitutional remedy for reasserting constitutional order in the face of tyranny if only We The People would exercise the necessary disciplines.

  • 63: Elite Overconfidence in Martial Governance
    Jun 22 2024

    Closing out the reading and commentary on Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr’s By Tyranny Out of Necessity: The Bastardy of Martial Law, Chapter 3.

    Liberty requires discipline, both individually and communally. It’s not enough to speak of wanting an ideal, you have to do the work to achieve it. Yet there are always excuses and distractions to be overcome, and self-delusion is one of the greatest obstacles to effective action. Securing a Free State is a rather straightforward matter of following clearly spelled out constitutional provisions for money and security and justice functions.

    The problem is with follow through. It requires an organized, armed, and disciplined population actively checking and arresting the corrupt ambitions of rogue public officials that abuse the political power entrusted to them. All of these problems flow from widespread apathy to the civic responsibility of executing the law, repelling invasions, and suppressing insurrections.

    Self-government requires engagement, and personal discipline, just like a free market in arms, is the necessary pre-condition to enjoying the fruits of liberty. Actively seeking discomfort in mind, body, and spirit is part of the training. Being clear on a goal and noticing the gap from where you are to where you want to be can help motivate, so long as you don’t look away or seek distractions.

    Personal discipline is the necessary ingredient in your own martial training, success in every area of life, as well as maintaining constitutional order among a federation of republics.

    There is a way to right the ship of government. The Way is in training. It starts with your daily choices.

  • 62: The Cartel's War of Terror
    Jun 15 2024

    A reading and commentary on Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr’s By Tyranny Out of Necessity: The Bastardy of Martial Law, Chapter 3, Part 4, discussing how the “haves” are expropriating and immiserating the “have nots” and the “used to haves” using fear as a justification.

    The political caste cannot deliver on the “freedom from want” and, therefore, must resort to the “freedom from fear” by constantly inventing new justifications for the citizens to render ever more emergency powers. Centralization of power is just cover for resource grabs, central planning, and population control.

    It warns against the building of a police state and the erosion of civil liberties in the name of national security, emphasizing the need for individuals to resist political encroachment and the unjust exercises of governmental power. The war on terrorism has become a war of terror, waged through elaborate ruses against We The People with tyrannical designs.

    However, We The People are “the government” and are duty bound to execute the law, repel invasions, and suppress insurrections in order to secure a Free State where everyone enjoys private property, individual liberty, and the freedom of association and exchange. We The People can arrest the criminal behavior of rogue official if, and only if, each individual embraces the warrior disciplines and contributes to the maintenance of constitutional order.

  • 61: Growing Resistance To The Cartel
    Jun 8 2024

    A reading and commentary of Dr. Edwin Vieira’s By Tyranny Out of Necessity: The Bastardy of Martial Law, Chapter 3, Part 3.

    We delve into the intricate interplay of mindset, martial art, and the science of political-economy to address the problem of monopoly cartels that are undermining good governance and the livelihood of ordinary citizens. Through the lens of samurai philosophy, particularly insights from Miyamoto Musashi's "Book of Five Rings," we'll explore how every challenge presents an opportunity for victory.

    From the erosion of individual liberties, debasement of the currency, and social degeneracy to international conflict, together we'll uncover the silver lining that is always available in every dark cloud in the form of actionable solutions rooted in personal freedom, popular self-government, and local militia, that has the power to dismantle the perverse incentives of the political caste (politicians, bureaucrats, technocrats, and oligarchs).

    Embrace the mindset of an empowered individual, build the community of enlightened warriors, and help secure a more prosperous world with sound money, free markets, and private property.

  • Ep60: The Cartel of Martial Governance
    Jun 1 2024

    A reading and commentary on Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr.'s By Tyranny Out of Necessity: The Bastardy of Martial Law, Chapter 3, Part 2.

    We delve into the intricate world of economic systems and political economies, drawing powerful analogies from the discipline and focus of the samurai. In this episode, Ken breaks down the Federal Reserve’s grip on currency and credit management, highlighting the unsustainable nature of central banking and the economic divides it perpetuates.

    We explore the controversial idea of shifting to a new currency backed by silver, gold, or Bitcoin, and challenging the fiat monetary system that fuels inflation and inequality.

    We also touch on historical economic shifts post-World War 2, the impacts of disconnecting from the gold standard, and the ensuing boom-bust cycles.

    Dive into a discussion on the importance of free markets, honest competition, and the protection of private property as the foundation for fair economic stratification.

    The manipulation by central banks and big bankers is failing We The People. Yet, political-bureaucratic corruption is to be expected. The real problem is due to a lack of a self-governance mindset, and the key popular institutions of a free market commodity money and local militia to execute the law, which is the real purpose of the Second Amendment.

    Embark on this journey to understand how martial arts theory can serve as a lens to view economic resilience and rational resource allocation. Tune in as we discuss institutional changes needed in money and militia to rebuild our political landscape for the greater good.

    We explore the changing landscape of conflict due to technological advancements in 3D printing, drones, and artificial intelligence, emphasizing the importance of studying armed martial arts for developing situational awareness and an understanding of combat geometry.

    We discusses the potential imposition of martial law in the United States and the need for individuals to be prepared for the full spectrum of threats so that every citizen can contribute to securing a Free State with their martial capacity. This is the true, political purpose of the Second Amendment and the right to keep and bear arms.

    Consider the motives and personalities behind the expansion of a national police state apparatus and the potential catastrophic events that could lead to martial law, particularly amid the potential collapse of international monetary and banking systems, hyperinflation, and even more civil unrest.

    This all leads back to the importance of personal training, discipline, preparation, and awareness in navigating the current situation while having the practical means for maintaining liberty for ourselves and posterity.
