In just one year we went from an ATF that targeted individual gun owners for imaginary crimes to one that&#8217;s focused on arresting real bad guys with illegal guns.</p><p>Constitutional Carry, known by the other side as permitless carry, is growing. Today, 29 states allow law-abiding adults to carry firearms without a state permit, and the number is expected to grow.</p><p>So, it&#8217;s understandable that those who want to restrict and subvert the Second Amendment are getting desperate. In fact, they&#8217;re willing to try almost anything to restrict access to firearms while President Trump is in office. It&#8217;s as if they never even heard of New York State Rifle &amp; Pistol Association v.

need an excuse to use a pic of Randy Quaid? An excellent role-model  for the youth of Amerika! - DD)</em></p><p>(<em><a href="https://www.survivaldispatch.news/p/disaster-alert-stay-or-flee-families">Chris Heaven, Survival Dispatch News</a></em>) - The question every American family has quietly rehearsed in the back of their mind is no longer hypothetical. Conditions on the ground are deteriorating faster than official channels are willing to admit, and the window for clean decision-making is closing. Tonight&#8217;s broadcast confronts the stay-vs-bug-out calculus head-on - not as a theoretical exercise, but as the defining survival decision of this moment in history. Nationally, population movement is accelerating in ways that create cascading secondary threats. Locally, the routes families planned to use are becoming liabilities before they ever reach them. There is no friction-free option. Staying carries consequences. Moving carries consequences. This episode lays out the reality of both, so when that moment arrives at your door, you are not making a cold-start decision under pressure.</p><p>Tonight&#8217;s panel breaks down something most preparedness content refuses to touch directly - the mobility trap. The assumption baked into most bug-out plans is that the roads will be passable, fuel will be available, and the decision to leave will come before the situation turns critical. The panel dismantles all three assumptions.</p><p>When large numbers of people begin moving simultaneously&#8230;</p><p><em><a href="https://www.survivaldispatch.news/p/disaster-alert-stay-or-flee-families">See More&#8230;</a></em></p><h5 style="text-align: center;">Help Free Southern Media Grow!

When an event such as an EMP occurs, it sends out a surge of electromagnetic energy that can induce damaging currents in electronics. A conductive enclosure redirects that energy around the exterior, preventing it from reaching what is inside. The objective is simple. Shield your critical devices from that surge.</p><p>A microwave oven is already designed with this principle in mind. When in use, it contains electromagnetic radiation within its metal body. The door includes a fine conductive mesh that blocks those waves from escaping. That same design can be repurposed to block external energy from entering.</p><p>The first step is choosing the right unit. You want a microwave with a solid metal body and a properly functioning door. The seal must be intact. If the door is warped, damaged, or does not close tightly, the effectiveness of the shielding is reduced.

separate State Constitutions stands as irrefutable proof that the American States entered the federal Compact not as subordinate provinces or administrative divisions of a consolidated national government, but as Free, Sovereign, and Independent republics, each possessed of its own organic law, its own People, its own institutions, and its own supreme authority over all matters not expressly delegated by Compact.</p><p>This Principle, woven into the fabric of our federal system from its inception, finds eloquent confirmation in the writings of Dr. J. L. M. Curry, whose legal justification of Southern action in 1860&#8211;1861 rests upon the unbroken historical thread of State Sovereignty.</p><p>As Curry demonstrated, the colonies, upon renouncing allegiance to Great Britain, emerged not as one indivisible mass but as distinct and separate Sovereign communities; Virginia&#8217;s Declaration of Rights in June 1776 and her Constitution of June 29 of that year exemplified the highest act of Independent Sovereignty, while the Declaration of Independence itself proclaimed the colonies to be &#8220;Free and Independent States.&#8221;</p><p>The Articles of Confederation left no room for ambiguity: &#8220;each State retains its Sovereignty, Freedom and Independence and every Power, Jurisdiction and Right, which is not by this confederation expressly delegated.&#8221;</p><p>When the Constitution of 1787 superseded those Articles, it did so not by erasing State Sovereignty but by perfecting a more efficient federal agent for strictly enumerated purposes; the States remained the creators, the federal government their creature.</p><p>That the Union is a Compact among Sovereign republics, dissoluble upon breach, is no Southern invention but a truth acknowledged even by&#8230;</p><p><em><a href="https://militantjeffersonian.wordpress.com/2026/04/24/the-united-states-is-a-republic-of-free-sovereign-and-independent-republics/">See More&#8230;</a> </em></p><h5>Help Free Southern Media Grow!

attorneys across America to remake its justice system at the county level sounds like a right-wing conspiracy theory, but it&#8217;s true. He explained why he was going to do it in his recent book In Defense of Open Society. His commitment to the program was announced by the ACLU in 2015. And the financial record of the endeavor has been tracked by dozens of news outlets over the past several years.</p><p>The 90-year-old financier and megadonor laid out his case for nationwide criminal justice reform in the second chapter of In Defense of Open Society, itself an updated version of a 2012 essay. He cited such measures as one of the major objectives in his America-related philanthropy agenda.</p><p>In November 2014, Soros&#8217;s Open Society Foundation gave $50 million to the ACLU&#8217;s Campaign to End Mass Incarceration. The ACLU put out a press release about the donation, restating their commitment to cutting U.S. incarceration rates in half by 2020 in what would be &#8220;the most ambitious effort to end mass incarceration in American history.&#8221;</p><p>Shortly after making this donation, Soros began steadily contributing large sums to progressive candidates for district attorney (D.A.) positions all over the country.

The new flags will go into effect in October.</p><p>&#8220;I could give a rip about this thing one way or another,&#8221; Pruitt said. &#8220;But since we don&#8217;t have a cost and nobody seems to care enough for this council to give us a cost for it, I&#8217;m going to vote against the flag.&#8221;</p><p>The old flag, adopted on April 19, 1952, included symbols tied to the Confederacy. Two years ago, Montgomery student Jeremiah Treece &#8212; who has since graduated from Booker T. Washington Magnet High School &#8212; started a petition to change it.</p><p>The City Council&#8217;s Governmental Affairs &amp; Administration Standing Committee opened a competition to design a new flag. Out of 27 submissions, the committee chose a design submitted by Joshua Gordon. Some modifications from the committee were incorporated into the final version.  </p><p>In the new flag&#8230;</p><p><em><a href="https://archive.ph/h9lLk#selection-2857.0-2857.65">See More&#8230;</a></em></p><h5>Help Free Southern Media Grow!

firearms, why is it willing to arm certain non-citizens with badges, guns, and arrest powers? </p><p>There is something deeply backward about a state that works overtime to disarm its own citizens while moving to arm non-citizens with badges, guns, and the power to arrest the very people whose rights it keeps trying to crush.</p><p>Across the country, anti-gun states have spent years treating the law-abiding American citizen as the problem. These are the same states that push magazine bans, &#8220;assault weapon&#8221; bans, carry restrictions, waiting periods, permitting schemes, and every other obstacle they can dream up to make it harder for ordinary Americans to exercise their right to keep and bear arms.</p><p>At the same time, some of those very same jurisdictions have moved to let certain non-citizens serve as police officers, so long as they have federal work authorization and can meet the state&#8217;s requirements. Illinois changed its law to allow certain non-citizens to become police officers and deputy sheriffs, and New Mexico enacted a similar change in 2025.
