All throughout history stories have been told by those whose insights and experiences had inspired said stories. The bestselling book in the world, the Bible, for example, is full of stories and parables that have influenced generations. Accordingly, bloggers like me and others will often reference such narratives to utilize widely-known and commonly understood history, facts, and details to make our points.  Furthermore, these universal associations can be used as launching pads, so to speak, to expand upon other ideas and perspectives.

In my early teens, I devoured the writings of J.R.R. Tolkien and his “Lords of the Rings” series beginning with “The Hobbit” and followed by “The Fellowship of the Ring”, “The Two Towers”, and “The Return of the King”, respectively. I also read “The Silmarillion” which was a precursor to the other books and originating thousands of years before the fictional events of “The Hobbit”.

Over two decades ago, the “Fellowship of the Ring” movies were released in theaters. The original three films (“The Fellowship of the Ring”, “The Two Towers”, and “The Return of the King”) were directed by Peter Jackson and are widely considered as cinematic masterpieces today.

The Tolkien tales are epic accounts of good versus evil – about rings of power and one ring to rule them all. The battles raged across the ages throughout the realms of men, dwarves, and elves… and… in the wicked lands of Mordor where the evil Eye of Sauron birthed its dark vision.

Having read the books over forty-five years ago, the chronology and visuals from the films are easier to recall; and, anyone familiar with the novels, or movies, will understand the parallels to our times.

Mordor rises. Like black smoke over the horizon.

In Tolkien’s “Two Towers”, as multiple battles were in progress, two hobbits named Merry and Pippin discussed retreating back to their peaceful homeland called the Shire. It was the land of their ancestors where their family and friends still remained. One of the Hobbits said going back was a nice thought but, in reality, Morder was coming for the Shire too.  In other words, victory was the only way forward.  This was because there could be no compromise with the evil Eye of Sauron and its black army of Orcs.

So 2024 will be a repeat of 2020 because no measures have been taken to fix voter fraud and voter manipulation.

As we now know, our Constitution is now overthrown and we can add there is no way to vote ourselves out of this. In other words: Become Winterborn and Prepare for Battle.

I’ve always been a great adherent of the US Constitution just as, I imagine, most of you reading this are. I just stumbled over the writing of Lysander Spooner. If he is correct in his understanding, it would explain a lot.

The Constitution has no inherent authority or obligation. It has no authority or obligation at all, unless as a contract between man and man. And it does not so much as even purport to be a contract between persons now existing. It purports, at most, to be only a contract between persons living eighty years ago. And it can be supposed to have been a contract then only between persons who had already come to years of discretion, so as to be competent to make reasonable and obligatory contracts. Furthermore, we know, historically, that only a small portion even of the people then existing were consulted on the subject, or asked, or permitted to express either their consent or dissent in any formal manner. Those persons, if any, who did give their consent formally, are all dead now. Most of them have been dead forty, fifty, sixty, or seventy years. And the Constitution, so far as it was their contract, died with them. They had no natural power or right to make it obligatory upon their children. It is not only plainly impossible, in the nature of things, that they could bind their posterity, but they did not even attempt to bind them. That is to say, the instrument does not purport to be an agreement between any body but “the people” then existing; nor does it, either expressly or impliedly, assert any right, power, or disposition, on their part, to bind any body but themselves.

Via American Heart Association , October 2023 (emphasis added):

“Health experts are redefining cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, prevention and management, according to a new American Heart Association presidential advisory published today in the Association’s flagship journal Circulation.

Various aspects of cardiovascular disease that overlap with kidney disease, Type 2 diabetes and obesity support the new approach. For the first time, the American Heart Association defines the overlap in these conditions as cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome. People who have or are at risk for cardiovascular disease may have CKM syndrome…

According to the American Heart Association’s 2023 Statistical Update, 1 in 3 U.S. adults have three or more risk factors that contribute to cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders and/or kidney disease. CKM affects nearly every major organ in the body, including the heart, brain, kidney and liver. However, the biggest impact is on the cardiovascular system, affecting blood vessels and heart muscle function, the rate of fatty buildup in arteries, electrical impulses in the heart and more.”

Although the diagnostic designation CKM only materialized last fall, according to recently released data from the Journal of the American Medical Association, a full 90% of Americans might be afflicted.
