On Sunday, September 29, thousands of people gathered at the National Mall in DC to overcome their differences and reclaim their country at the Rescue the Republic Event. A “rebel alliance” coordinated by Bret Weinstein, Matt Tune, Angela McCardle set about clearing the rhetorical rubble of a crumbling psychological operation to excavate the foundation of America’s original intent. It was powerful to witness.
It was also revolutionary. (And by revolutionary I mean “bringing about a major or fundamental change.”)
You can watch the entire event here.
Organizers sent out an open invitation to anyone willing to step out of their comfort zone to restore our neglected melting pot.
Now is the time for the American people to wake up and rise up. A rebel alliance is forming in the name of liberty and life. People of every color culture creed and ideology are putting politics aside to secure the 8 pillars of peace and freedom:
End the weaponization of science and medicine.
Cease the expansion of surveillance and propaganda.
Stop central bank digital currencies.
Prevent political abuse of our judicial system.
Secure our national borders.
Protect our children.
Restore critical thinking in education
Break our addiction to war.
Everyone brought something: a story, an idea, a song, a voice. Support. Some, including first responders, have been puting in their blood, sweat and tears. These contributions culminated in something alchemical and it raised the vibration. A stone soup that conjured the Spirit of 1776.
Bret Weinstein alluded to that spirit in his speech:
“The attributes that unite us in this historic time and place live not in the mind, but in the heart. What has caused us to converge is a powerful force; a product that blooms when courage and love are combined… When people face their fears for something they truly love, the force they become shapes history for the better. And that is what fuels our rescue mission. This is not a political exercise. We are non-partisan and brought together across ideological lines to right the ship of State and put her back on course toward an objective spelled out, but not fully achieved by the American founders.
Throughout the day, MC’s Rob Schneider and Lara Logan introduced a spectrum of voices who laid out our current predicament while striking resonance in our collective hope for the future.
Tulsi Gabbard imparted an important truth about our role as stakeholder:
Our government exists only with the consent of the governed. That’s us. Everything we are seeing now - the weaponization of government entities, the censorship of free speech, the political retaliation against those who have the audacity to criticize those in power - they’re throwing everything they can at us to undermine our democracy because they are terrified of what a free people in a free society will do to uproot them from their power and bring our interests to the forefront once again, of freedom, peace and prosperity.
And Robert F. Kennedy rooted us into our duty to delegate power mindfully:
I want you all to remember three rules.
When you give a government a power, it will never voluntarily relinquish it.
If you give a government a power, it will ultimately abuse that power to the maximum extent possible.
Nobody ever complied their way out of totalitarianism.
This is bigger than an election.
While politics now permeates everything, most of the event focused on a return to owning ourselves and our country. No one I met was waiting for Trump, Kamala or even Kennedy to save them. Most of the attendees I came across consider themselves part of the rescue mission and are eager to engage in collaborative problem-solving and the open exchange of ideas. They’re interested in making sure the people we vote for will work for them. People I spoke to are involved in lawsuits, are trying to restore the ailing health of loved ones or get their jobs back. Many are homeschooling, running for office and/or growing their own food.
While the Presidential election is seen as a pressing opportunity to accelerate change, speakers reminded us that voting is one of MANY ways we can use our voices. These Americans are calling out corruption, holding people accountable, and gathering their collective intelligence to set better standards for the future.
Dr. Heather Heying powerfully summed up the current plight of our children and invited us to reintroduce nature, wonder, healthy learning curves and family boundaries to restore healthy childhoods. Moms for Liberty’s Tiffany Justice encouraged us to remind the federal government that we do not co-parent with them.
“Big Food” activist Vani Hari called out our government and American food companies for poisoning us with addictive, carcinogenic and endocrine disrupting food additives while selling healthier version of the same products overseas, noting that “we use over 10,000 food additives in the United States, but there are only 400 approved in Europe.”
I want Americans to be treated the same way as citizens in other countries by our own American companies. Over the last 60 years almost all food additives have been created for one sole purpose: to improve the bottom line of the food industry and not improve our health. These chemicals are created to mimic real food, to make it easier and cheaper for food manufacturers to preserve their food, to make it last longer on the shelf, to help with manufacturing, and most sinister of all, to create products that are addictive in nature.
CHD’s Mary Holland walked us through a childhood vaccine schedule that is stacked with shots that haven’t been properly tested and are known to cause injury and death among our children:
This is insane. This is corrupt. This is criminal. Vulnerable children need a public champion and they have one in Bobby Kennedy. He is not only defending children, he is committed to making them healthy again.
Dr. Pierre Kory called for “transparency in our institutions and accountability for the decisions that affected millions of lives.” Senator Ron Johnson then pointed us towards purpose:
We have a dream that billions of eyes will be open. That wrong will fail and right will prevail. That truth will conquer evil. That freedom and peace will endure. That is why we assemble here. That is what must be rescued.
Independent economist Dr. Chris Martenson addressed the financial industrial complex, America’s insolvency, the dangers of CBDCs and the need to preserve the “freedom of spending.”
We have a group of people in power here who think nothing of spending money they don’t have, expecting your children and grandchildren to pay for it, and nothing to show for it… It doesn’t have to be this way.
In the spirit of unity, Dr. Jordan Peterson and Russell Brand shared the stage to engage in a “debate rap battle.” Peterson highlighted the international impact of what happens here in the U.S., particularly with respect to free speech and censorship. Brand addressed the “banalization of our culture.”
It seems to me that it’s not an accident that our culture is predicated upon consuming, upon selfishness, upon distraction, upon mundanity and banality for the individual. A total lack of privacy for the individual, but maximum privacy for the State. A requirement for transparency from individuals, but no transparency from the State…. The institutions of your country all turned against the individual… Of course this kind of control would never be accepted if it were visible. It’s only through constantly escalating crisis, through the elevation of fear, and the stimulation of desire that we, like rats in laboratories, are stimulated into distraction and compliance.
Comedian and podcaster Jimmy Dore shared his rude awakening from vax propaganda and mainstream narratives and asked us to redirect our indignation towards corporate media:
I may not agree with everybody on this stage on everything, but we agree on the important things: freedom of speech and the First Amendment… We have to stop listening to the corporate media. The corporate media works for the billionaire elites who want us fighting and blaming each other for everything that’s wrong instead of keeping our eyes on them…Remember, they don’t ever censor lies. They censor the truth. Julian Assange was in prison, not because he lied, but because he told the truth about the war machine.
(Assange came up a number of times throughout the day, a looming cautionary tale.)
A Backlash to Censorship
Predictably, the mainstream media coverage has been scant and disparaging. Wall Street Journal’s Molly Ball called the event a “testament to the axis of weird.” (So “weird” that Americans want to restore the founding principles of their country.) The Atlantic used the event as yet another opportunity to mock critical thinking. Both publications dismissed the event as a Trump rally,
Somewhere, Del BigTree is laughing at these headlines because he knows the stigmatizing bully tactics have lost their power over a growing number of us. In his speech, BigTree credited an irrational onslaught of hit pieces for the success of Vaxxed and a boost to the Medical Freedom movement.
Media cannabalization has caught up with itself with the help of awakening masses. Aggressive censorship only confirms how powerful and impactful our voices are. And it turns out we’re not just an optimistic people. We’re also a curious people, growing more resilient and innovative every day. Because adversity cultivates.
The shenanigans are backfiring.
On Saturday night, state police came to shut down the VAXXED III: Authorized to Kill screening on the National Mall just minutes after it began (and immediately after Ernest Ramirez’s devastating story of losing his son after getting Pfizer’s COVID injection). All the proper applications had been submitted and approved, permits were in place, the event was well-staffed and all the guests had been checked in, but it didn’t matter. An excuse was given and the documentary was stopped.
But organizers were ready with fliers and links to free screenings. Guests at both the screening and the Rescue event the next day were even more eager to see the film that someone clearly didn’t want them to see. Maybe we should called it the VAXXED effect. Because once you see it you can’t unsee it.
Matt Taibbi encapsulated the sentiments of a growing number of Americans in this regard:
To all those snoops and “nosey parkers” sitting in their Homeland Security-funded Centers of Excellence telling us day after day we must think as they say and vote as they say or else we’re traitorous Putin-loving fascists and enablers of dangerous disinformation… Motherf**er, I’m an American. That sh*t doesn’t work on us.
The Rise of Critical Thinking and Moral Courage
Increasingly, Americans are walking away from the expert class and are thinking for themselves. The people we trusted to lead this country tried to break the American spirit or shame us into disowning it. But Americans are returning to reclaim it, along with our health, our media, our education, our food, air and water, our music and entertainment, our currency, our values, our kids and our rights.
And if warrior moms like Susie Olson Corgan and Andrea Nazarenko are any indication of the strength, resilience and ingenuity of “the resistance," globalist puppets are screwed. Because the tyrannical toolkit they’re using was made by the same folks that brought us that “safe and effective” mRNA vaccine and they can no longer hide the waning efficacy of either.
The media’s gaslighting now serves to ignite deeper curiosity. We’re no longer willing to deny what our own eyes have seen and we’re determined to know the truth and protect our kids. We’re not going to accept free donuts, comfortable illusions and state-sanctioned “virtue.” We’re over the labels and when the Emperor has no clothes, we’re going to say so, no matter who the Emperor is. We’re getting back in touch with our instincts and that doesn’t bode well for captured organizations that want to sell us tired lies about what’s good for us.
This situation no longer serves us and we’ve decided to grow out of it.
Apparently, this is the “testament to the axis of weird.”
THIS is where you end up when you do your own research.
At a new and hopeful beginning.
A wonderful synopsis of the day’s events, its significance, and especially, the moral courage and love for the only country ever founded on a creed.
