Amelia Purple Reign. Amelia Goth. The voice and face of the rising tide longing for liberty, for freedom, from the Woke Socialism of all the old parties in the United Kingdom. A constant voice for England, for traditions, for freedom from oppression and cancellation!
Meet an AI heroine, who is proud to be called that – feminine, not gender neutral or neutered!
No, her Imperial Highness is not seeking to become the 32d State of the United Mexican States.
The proposed secession from New Mexico by Lea and Roosevelt Counties is a topic of significant interest and debate. The legislation (NM House Joint Resolution 10) would give voters in three or more contiguous counties the option to secede from New Mexico. (Curry would likely be the third county, but Eddy, Otero, and Chaves are possible joiners.) This proposal was introduced by Republican Reps. Randall Pettigrew and Jimmy Mason. It would require a special election with two-thirds of the population’s support, followed by approval from the county commissioners, the U.S. Congress, and the president. Both local residents and political opponents (read, sycophants of her Imperial Highness and Democrats in general) are criticizing the resolution. They argue argue that secession is not practical and should be addressed by other means.
Of course, secession ideas are not exclusive to New Mexico. TPOL has discussed many over the years. Current active proposals or movements have been considered in other states.
Continue readingWe must recognize that the death toll of the 20th century is one of the stains on our so-called civilization, and upon the people and institutions of the Fifty States. Acts of commission and omission, especially by government officials, are tainted – indeed, blackened – by the deaths that they have caused, allowed, and even encouraged. From boarding school deaths and the victims of the “Spanish flu” to the needless involvement in WW1 and the planned and secretive involvement in WW2 and all the wars since, government has much to answer for.
This month, a medical doctor in Philadelphia remind us that it is not just government officials – those in power, or “serial killers” skulking through the streets that are to blame for innocent blood shed, for lives tragically shortened by government action, inaction, and stupidity.
Kermit Gosnell is dead. In 2013 he was convicted merely of killing three newborn infants, victims of “botched” abortions of children of his patients. A wicked judge dismissed four of the murder charges, although the evidence was obvious that Gosnell and his staff had killed tens of thousands of infants, both unborn by “legal” and “illegal” abortions, but hundreds by what he called a “snip.” Cutting their spinal cord after the child was born. As well as killing multiple women by his abominably-poor medical practices in his apparently popular abortion mill in inner-city Philadelphia.
Continue readingIn Detroit, a 30-year veteran of the Detroit Police Force, a sergeant (now retired in South Carolina) has been implicated in at least five rapes of women between 1999 and 2003, and is suspected in many more. The charges come from previously-untested rape kits. Kept but unanalyzed for 27 or more years, by the police. This kind of thing explains why many Americans support a death penalty, why many more Americans support and practice keeping and bearing arms for their defense and that of others, and look with disgust and anger at government. Especially the police.
People like to worship (exault, praise, glorify, and serve in various ways) police. They are “first responders” who daily “risk their lives for those they serve.” Most people buy into the common cop vehicle motto “to serve and protect.” Serving them includes the well-worn meme of free donuts, free coffee, free soda (at least, free fountain soda), and discounts. More and more people allow the cops access to and use of their doorbell cameras (internet-connected).
Continue readingThe biggest problem with the “justice system” (judicial system) is that it is filled with lawyers. Including all but a very small number of judges. And a big part of that problem with judges is that they know what side their bread is buttered on. Their income, their working places, their prestige is all tied to the government apparat that pays for all of that. And that protects them personally.
Let us look at three cases which illustrate that judges today are creatures of the State, of government.
Dr. Robert Malone, a researcher, biochemist, and physician, well known for his pioneering work in vaccines and related medical and health issues, has resigned from the federal vaccine panel. He was appointed as the vice-chair of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) by Robert F Kennedy Jr. He had shared his belief that the ACIP would be able to end the total incompetence of the FedGov (and the States that listen) in vaccination, as we saw in the Beer Flu Pandemic Panic (COVID-19) and various child vaccine programs.
Why?

“THE” right answer, of course, is to blame the “gun lobby” and those callous, greedy politicians who lust after NRA, JFPO, TZP, and 2AF money while happily watching their constituents get gunned down in the streets or blowing their brains out at home. It is a claim (or variant thereof) made by politicians, “civic organizations,” and the media – even AI. Supposedly as many as 88% of Americans believe something like this.
Surprising, isn’t it, that there is a different reason?
Continue readingIn the past several weeks, we have heard a lot of claims about the tragedy at a girl’s school in southern Iran. A lot of lies. Denials. Cries of pain. Everyone blaming everyone else, but themselves of course. Last week, several bloggers and pundits (Americans, not just Muslim) have flat-out stated that The Donald and his henchman Hegseth, “deliberately targeted” the girl’s school. Incredibly serious charges, portraying the tragedy as much worse that it seemed to be.
Here at TPOL, we understand the claim, but submit that it is not so cut and dried as that. This is what one of our staff members wrote early last week, privately to a correspondent.
According to a map I saw the day of that attack, and Google Earth and lat-long provided by Al-Araby TV, this Shajareh Tayeben School is immediately adjacent to what seems to be a military installation. In fact, CBS has a satellite photo map identifying this compound as being an IRGC facility. It also shows damaged structures in the actual installation, said to be from the same attack.

Newsbreak.com and The Hill published a story headlined “Early COVID-19 pandemic death toll much higher than official count – study.” It reads, in part:
The journal Science Advances found that more than 155,000 unrecognized additional deaths outside of hospitals between March 2020 and December 2021 likely went uncounted. This suggests that 15.6 percent of deaths went uncounted, as the official death toll during that time frame was more than 840,000.
Researchers said the estimated total number of COVID-19 deaths between that timeline was More than 995,000. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) established that the U.S. hit 1 million COVID-19 deaths in May 2022.

Today, according to some postings on social media, we have this:

The Price of Liberty 
Democracies and their engines of corruption
Modified guest commentary. The position of The Price of Liberty, under Mama Liberty and now the current proprietors, is unchanged. Democracy is an evil and degenerate successor to republics, and soon slide into mob rule and then tyranny (an autocracy of some type). We do not say that democracies are not tyrannical: it is still the old libertarian parable of the lamb and two wolves voting on what to eat for lunch.
Modern democracies have a very distinct engine driving corruption within them, and it’s not what you’d expect. There are many drivers of government corruption, of course, but this one empowers corruption in ways that others do not and cannot.
Democracies and democratic republics, (always just a slightly more tolerable flavor of evil government) especially now, involve professional politicians. An even greater evil than many alternatives.
And politicians, to put it very directly, are the winners of popularity contests. In fact, if we’re to be honest about it, modern elections might best be described as a type of beauty pageant, or a “popularity pageant.” Actually, it might be interesting to have a fancy Greek name for that, turning democracy into something corresponding to pageant-ocracy. (Rule by the most popular, the most personable!)
(So, does that turn your stomach like it does ours?)
Be that as it may, our modern rule-of-pageant-winners affects even the political parties which control the various contestants (by providing or denying the funding they need to win). The party overlords prefer winners to losers, after all. (Regardless of what these overlords, the men and women behind the curtain, want.)
