One of my absolute favorite thinkers on the state of things is a group called, Counter-spell. I will post one of their recent, and critically important videos below.
I think one of the principal people in Counter-spell is actually an elected representative of a state somewhere in one of the last couple of Republics standing.
They sent out this email to their substack subscribers:
Apologies folks, but we’re having a brief delay here. Overwhelmingly, efforts and attention have turned to physical security in the aftermath of rifle shots ripping through the air inches-to-feet from me several days ago at my home.
Thus far, any sort of investigation has not been forthcoming – despite contacting multiple agencies with requests and leveraging social media – local PD, very oddly, didn’t even respond to the 911 call.
Instead, friends and supporters have stepped up to assist and volunteer with improving my security posture in myriad ways – those you have known who you are and my family and I owe you a debt of gratitude.
New episodes will return soon. We’re not done yet.
Please consider subscribing to their Substack. I don’t really know what else we can do at this early stage of the fight-back against this revolution which is rapidly turning kinetic.
As I was about to hit publish, Gates of Vienna messaged me with two items that look an awful lot like the next phase in the counter-revolution, and what many Americans may mistake for a Civil War.
Trump says he could send “Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines” into U.S. cities “if it was necessary”
(As this is CBS news there is likely missing context)
(Again, this time the Guardian. This is likely Agitprop without the proper context. It is a good idea to join Truth Social or read the Whitehouse.gov so at least you can get angry at what he might actually have said, and maybe even meant.)
Still, even at face value, after decades of leftist contamination of institutions and creation of institutions which have destroyed essential aspects of the Republic, the fight back cannot be polite, gentle and slow. It is take back the Republic and restore truth and individual rights any way possible, or lose it possibly forever.

Euthanasia: Inevitable Progress or Anthropological Regression? Pierre Manent vs. Frédéric Worms
It was one of Emmanuel Macron’s campaign promises in 2022: to liberalize assisted dying. The opinion of the National Consultative Ethics Council, issued in September 2022, paves the way for the legalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia. What does this demand say about the society we live in? Some see it as inevitable progress, others perceive it as anthropological regression.
Would this legalization plunge us into another civilization? To discuss this, Eugénie Bastié welcomes philosophers Pierre Manent and Frédéric Worms.
