🇺🇸 5-Point Update! (Why I Love the USA!)
This is an important issue!
“It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.”
Samuel Adams
Hi from Glenn!
I hope you had a great Father’s Day!
I have a really important newsletter for you today, so please give it some of your time. Also, I ask that you share today’s newsletter with as many people from all over the world as you can.
Here are the five points I think you will like today...
🇺🇸 FIRST, I want to tell you why I am so very grateful and proud to be an American, especially right now.
Twelve months ago, I wrote this…
I have traveled the world. I love seeing the people of the world, and I’m amazed at how similar we all are. The vast majority are good people who just want a better life for themselves and their family.
But for all of my travels, I’ve noticed that there is a key difference in many Americans that I rarely see in other countries (except maybe Australia); a fierce independence streak and a deep distrust of government.
Most people of the world are predisposed to trust the government and easily fall into the “collectivist” thought process. Collectivism is being pushed very hard on America, and a lot of people, especially young adults are embracing it. But it goes against America’s natural thought process and is facing significant resistance.
Our country was formed by throwing off government tyranny, so we could each live our lives in freedom. Our Founding Father’s were true geniuses who charted a unique and inspired course.
Our Constitution is unique in many regards, but at its core is this distrust of government. The Constitution and Bill of Rights protects our freedoms by restricting the power of people in government, because people in power ALWAYS want more power. The Bill of Rights is a reminder that officials have no legitimate power to restrict our freedoms.
But this distrust is not simply in a document, it’s in our hearts. It’s in our DNA.
For most of last year I was worried about the USA.
I worried that the desire for freedom was gone from Americans. I worried that we had lost the very healthy distrust of government and those in power, which is what has defined the heart of America for the past 250 years.
I watched the finely-tuned media propaganda machine jam the globalist, collectivism mindset down our throats, and I didn’t see people questioning the narrative.
But, I’m happy to say that my hope has been restored. I see the American Spirit of independence shining like a light in many people’s hearts. I am proud to see Americans refuse to fall for the fear mongering and government infringement on our liberties.
I’m grateful to see an increasing number of people see through the lies and agenda driven propaganda that the media and government is feeding us.
We are standing up and telling the government to back off, and I’m very happy to see this. This is what America is about!
The American Spirit can be seen clearly now against the dark backdrop of what is happening in the other “free” nations of the world.
Make no mistake, for the past year and a half, the free countries of the world have been under a highly sophisticated attack by the global elites, government and the central bankers of the world to steal people’s freedoms.
We must always remember that it has not been the illness that has devastated our countries. Rather it has been the highly coordinated government actions supported by media lies and big tech firms censoring true science that has devastated us.
Canada, New Zealand, Australia, England, all of Europe and many other countries have already fallen to this tyranny, but the people don’t realize it yet. They have surrendered their freedoms and have accepted the government’s right to tell them how to live.
The most disappointing has to be the Germans, who, more than anyone should know better than to fall for tyranny. One German recently wrote this …
“The ease with which the German authorities implemented the new official ideology, and how fanatically it has been embraced by the majority of Germans, came as something of a shock. I had naively believed that, in light of their history, the Germans would be among the first to recognize a nascent totalitarian movement predicated on textbook Goebbelsian Big Lies (i.e., manipulated Covid “case” and “death” statistics), and would resist it en masse, or at least take a moment to question the lies their leaders were hysterically barking at them.
I couldn’t have been more wrong.
Here we are, over a year later, and waiters and shop clerks are “checking papers” to enforce compliance with the new official ideology. (And, yes, the “New Normal” is an official ideology. When you strip away the illusion of an apocalyptic plague, there isn’t any other description for it). Perfectly healthy, medical-masked people are lining up in the streets to be experimentally “vaccinated.” Lockdown-bankrupted shops and restaurants have been converted into walk-in “PCR-test stations.” The government is debating mandatory “vaccination” of children in kindergarten. Goon squads are arresting octogenarians for picnicking on the sidewalk without permission. And so on. At this point, I’m just sitting here waiting for the news that mass “disinfection camps” are being set up to solve the “Unvaccinated Question.”
My German wife is very sad at how her family and friends (who still live in Germany), have been petrified with fear regarding this illness. Even more disappointing, some of her friends are happy that the unvaccinated are being marked and separated from the rest of society, which is exactly what happened in Germany in the late 1930s.
But just to be clear, it’s not just Germany that has fallen to the vaccine passport. All of Europe has also fallen, and indeed, most of the “free” world has submitted to total government rule of their lives.
As I mentioned last year, I always saw Australians as being fiercely independent people, yet they have totally submitted to a police state, even though they’ve only had one death from this illness in the past 6 months. This includes police barging into people’s homes to arrest people who speak up against the government, and to confiscate their electronic devices.
New Zealander’s have applauded their government’s tyrannical dictates and very few people question the motives of their government, and Canada is one of the countries that is leading the way into the new world order.
I don’t think it’s too late for these countries, but if these countries want to preserve their freedom moving forward, they are going to have to wake up and fight like hell to take their freedom’s back from their governments.
We have been struggling against this tyranny in the US as well, but the USA is different, for two reasons.
First, we have a unique Constitution that limits government power AND is very difficult to change.
Second, the American independent spirit is asserting itself, and many Americans are starting to wake up and reject this government control.
I am very proud of this. America is the greatest country in the world…
Not because of our government, but despite it.
Not because of our wealth, or our power or our culture.
America is the greatest country on the planet because we embody individual freedom. It is in our Constitution, and more importantly, it’s in our hearts.
I’d love to hear your comments.
🇨🇳 SECOND, I also want to point out another article that I wrote ten months ago called, “Beware the Propaganda about China.” This is what I said…
I believe that war with China is very likely, and the pieces are carefully being put in place right now. The media and the government are building a case for the virus being man-made in Wuhan, China and they are saying that it has been used as a biological weapon to crash the world economy. When the dollar collapses, blame will be focused in two directions; China and capitalism.
But remember, the collapse of the dollar was a foregone conclusion even if COVID never happened. The Fed had printed too much money. It came within a day of collapsing in 2008, but the Fed pulled a rabbit out of its hat and extended the reign of the dollar another 12 years, while magnifying the problem significantly during this time.
Remember four things…
This past year and a half has consisted of a very carefully planned narrative from the media and government. For more than a year, many scientists have been saying that they suspected that covid was a man-made virus, but the media and social media censored and squashed those views as conspiracy theories. Why? Because they didn’t want to distract from the narrative that they were successfully jamming down our throats.
So why did this change overnight? Why is almost every news outlet now talking about covid as man-made? Did the science change? NO! The change in narrative is NOT due to a change in the science. In my opinion, it’s another form of manipulation. As soon as people stopped being scared of the illness, they needed something to again stir people up and distract people from what is really happening, which is the reset of the financial system.
Remember that, if this is a man-made virus, the USA helped develop it and we intentionally worked with and funded this research in a country with a terrible human rights record. This is a despicable act. Our anger should be directed at our own government more than China.
What a government fears most is the wrath of it’s people. Our government knows that a financial collapse is coming, and they want to deflect blame away from themselves. This is why, when financial collapses happen, wars often break out.
Do not trust the media and don’t trust the government. This is all a planned narrative to further their own ends. Take care of yourself. Be prepared and insist that people remember the Constitution.

I’m an independent voice who is a truth seeker, which is rare in today’s world of activist journalists and commentators who try to stoke the division and hate that is consuming our country. Your support will definitely help.
🦠 THIRD, in my last newsletter I told you about a dramatic reversal from Dr. Fauci and the CDC in which they suddenly reversed their stance by saying that unvaccinated people are, in fact, not a danger to vaccinated people, which is absolutely common sense, but this position was being used as a justification for a tremendous amount of social pressure to push people to get the vaccine.
Just to be clear, if you got the vaccine, more power to you. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t get the vaccine. Rather, I’m only saying why I, and many others are not.
Did you know that they have spent billions (yes, with a B) to convince skeptics to get the vaccine? What they don’t understand is that many people don’t want the vaccine because they do not trust it, nor do they trust the pharmaceutical companies, the government or how this has been jammed down our throats. There is nothing they can do to get me to trust these people.
On that point, did you realize that Moderna (one of the vaccine companies) has now created its fifth billionaire because of the vaccine?
Do you think that these people would have become billionaires if they instead recognized the effectiveness of non-patentable, cheap and widely available hydroxychloroquine, which a new scientific study has shown, once again, can increase COVID survival rates by 200%. (If you have a strong emotional reaction to my mentioning hydroxychloroquine, ask yourself why. Science is not passionate. Discussion about science should be level-headed. You should not have an emotional reaction to this statement, and if you do, you have been brainwashed.)
So here’s a very important point to understand…
The FDA will NOT give emergency approval to a vaccine if there are any other treatment methods that work against the virus.
Could this be why there was such a hysterical reaction to hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin? I think this is part of the answer. The vaccine was also required to implement the vaccine passport, which I think is the deeper reason.
As a final point about COVID and the vaccine, I encourage you to listen to this wonderful interview.
Let me know what you think!
FOURTH, I want to talk to you about privacy. You should be aware of three new developments.
Amazon has launched a new program called "Amazon Sidewalk" (they always give them friendly names) that will allow Amazon devices to share your wireless internet with other people without your knowledge!
Both Amazon and Google are again being sued for spying on their customers. Amazon recently received more than 75,000 individual complaints that it's Alex-powered Echo devices were spying on them. And Google is once again in trouble for tracking people's location and giving this info to 3rd parties, even when users turn off location tracking.
If you have a child or grandchild who uses TikTok, you should reconsider. On Wednesday, they just changed their privacy policy to say that the social video app “may collect biometric identifiers and biometric information” from its users’ content including “faceprints and voiceprints".
WHY DO THESE COMPANIES KEEP DECEPTIVELY SPYING ON THEIR CUSTOMERS? Mainly, it’s because we let them. We don't kick them out of our lives even when they have repeatedly demonstrated that they are not trustworthy. But another reason is that they make more money with their deceptive practices than they ever lose in government fines, or lawsuit payouts!
Their deceptive business model works, so they are going to keep spying on you!
MY RECOMMENDATIONS: As much as possible kick big tech out of your life. Do not use any smart devices in your home, such as Amazon Echo, Ring, Google Home, Nest etc. Use DuckDuckGo instead of Google, and use ProtonMail instead of Gmail. Most importantly, you have to continue to learn about privacy and you have to take actions to remain private.
THE PRIVACY ACTION PLAN. Privacy is your right and you need to protect it. But there's so much to think about that securing your privacy can be overwhelming. The Privacy Action Plan gives you bite-sized actions to take every week. Just focus on the task at hand and before you know it, you'll have your privacy figured out!
PLEASE NOTE: Please note that if you sign up as a premium member to this newsletter, you get free access to the Privacy Action Plan. But that will change on Friday. If you haven’t locked in your free membership by then, new subscribers (who sign up after Friday) won’t get free access to Privacy Action Plan.
🐝 FIFTH, this lady is pretty incredible. You can see how calm she stays and how this makes the bees stay calm.
Have a great week!
Glenn 💛

NEW BOOK. Please check out this book by Josh Taylor, who is part of our community. He sent it to me and it’s a very inspiring story.
Like the LORD who created us, we are totally unique individuals with a desire to embrace love and share goodness to everyone. Sadly, complacency, apathy and fear have led some persons to turn to the dark side of spiritual life. As you have surmised, we must recognize this fact and fight it with all of our power. Remember Edmund Burke's prescient observation just prior to our own Revolution, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing". Seek His Will in prayer and act upon achieving its purpose to save this nation from the evil determined to destroy it and us! Bob
I agree, Glenn, only I don't share your optimism. At this point I am happy that I am old and won't have to put up with all the b.s. that is being shoveled at us from every governmental entity that thinks it can get away with it.
