A Birthday Worth Defending
Eric Metaxas has written the book Americans should read before the nation's 250th birthday. The reaction from its critics explains why.

For a generation, Americans have been taught to approach their own country’s birthday as a dark day in history. The founding, we are told, was irredeemably compromised. The men who created the nation were hypocrites who spoke of liberty while tolerating slavery, and the proper response to 1776 is not gratitude or admiration, but discomfort.
Eric Metaxas rejects that view, and thank God for that.
Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World arrives at exactly the right moment, as the nation approaches its 250th anniversary. It does something that much of our educational, cultural, and political establishment has spent decades discouraging. It celebrates the American founding.
Metaxas argues that what emerged in 1776 was not merely a successful rebellion against British rule. It was a genuinely revolutionary event that changed the course of human history. Unlike the French, Russian, Chinese, and countless other revolutions that promised liberty and delivered tyranny, the American Revolution produced a constitutional republic built on individual rights, self-government, and the radical idea that legitimate power comes from the consent of the governed.
Very little in our culture today encourages Americans to understand what was achieved in 1776, much less take pride in it. Metaxas reminds readers that the American story is not one of perfection. It is the story of an imperfect people who created something extraordinary. A nation that forgets how it was founded will eventually lose what made it worth preserving in the first place.
At its heart, this book is a reminder that our inheritance is real, that it is worth defending, and that Americans should not be ashamed of it.

It grows around here. I'm going to ask the villagers where and make a poultice for my 88-year-old friend who fell on his elbow yesterday. Tiny fracture and massive bruising, poor old sod.
This video is a year old but it's worth reading the comments below the video, even if you don't watch it.
Also good for Red Pilling friends.
The Cancer Doctor
I don't normally share personal stuff but this might help someone. Skip to the conclusion if the wall of text defeats you.
About 4 years ago, after the covid debacle, my wife and I drove for two hours to a seaside resort for a holiday. On the way there, I developed tooth pain. I saw a dentist who took an x-ray and told me that I had an abscess and that the infection had been there for a long time. I took antibiotics.
Back home, a few days later, I saw my own dentist. (No waiting times here!) He drilled out the tooth, injected antiseptic, put in a temporary filling and repeated this process every few days for a month before completing the root canal filling, fitting a crown and declaring it fixed.
Thereafter I always had a slight ache but kept convincing myself that it would go away.
Two years later I woke from an afternoon nap (I was 73 then and I had serious backache and sciatica) to find my heart racing. My wife rushed me to the local medical center. They put me in an ambulance and rushed me to the nearest hospital. I was hooked up to a chart recorder, which showed an erratic heartbeat of 160 bpm. I felt OK but apparently this was bad.
I spent 2 days in bed with a drip feeding dextrose into a vein. (This subsequently caused a hematoma - a blockage of the vein - but that's another story.)
Eventually, I was made to hobble down a long corridor (my back was even more painful from 2 days on a hard bed). In a tiny room a guy in a white coat did an ultrasound scan of my chest, grunted and told me that a nurse would give me a prescription for three drugs that I would have to take for life, otherwise I'd have a stroke.
-
Beta blockers to slow my heart (half a pill to be taken if my bpm was more than 70 on waking. It was usually around 70).
-
Statins - no reason given - my cholesterol is a perfectly normal 220.
-
Anticoagulant capsules.
I did some research. Arrhythmia causes blood stagnation in the heart, which can lead to a clot reaching the brain. Scary. After two months of hesitating I started to take the anticoagulant. (I didn't ever take statins. I took a beta blocker twice.)
Six months later, I had a heart stress test where a nurse injects a radioactive dye and then a chemical that makes the heart work hard. This was followed by a scan. It felt unpleasant. I thought I was going to faint. When I collected the results there was no doctor available and it hasn't been mentioned since. I assume that the results showed normal heart function.
When I saw my own private doctor he looked at the results and merely grunted. I told him that I'd started taking the anticoagulant. He informed me that I was supposed to take TWO per day, not one. Darn. They were already costing me 30 Euros a month (after insurance deduction).
I'd been having "funny turns" - momentary dizziness as my heart faltered - nearly every day.
I started to take two capsules per day. I was worried; I'd read about the side effects, one of which was brain aneurism or stroke!
A few weeks later my eyes literally exploded internally and I developed "floaters". My ophthalmologist did an eye examination and determined that the retinas were intact but the gel was detaching. This had caused a release of blood cells and collagen. The result was that my vision was filled with "cobwebs" and a couple of "tadpoles". (It still is.)
I stopped taking the anticoagulants and did more research. My magnesium levels have always been low. I was born just after the war when food rationing prevailed and bread with "dripping" was a meal, with salt if you were lucky. We'd have meat on a Sunday. I was already, by age 70, taking magnesium supplements but maybe not enough. I switched to magnesium Glycinate, twice a day. I did more research and started adding potassium chloride salt to my meals.
As I increased the electrolyte supplements, the arrhythmia decreased but not completely.
I did more research and finally reached the conclusion that I'd been dreading. The root canal tooth had to go.
Two weeks after the extraction the arrhythmia stopped. This morning, on waking, I checked my pulse. It was 57 bpm. It's never been so low.
CONCLUSION
Heart problems such as mine can be caused by infected teeth and/or gums. They can also be caused by a lack of magnesium and/or potassium. And I can tell you that a blood test will tell you nothing.
Also, there's no quick fix. It can take a year or more of supplements to get your bone and muscle stores of minerals up to normal where your body starts to work normally; your immune system actually works. Your migraine attacks and muscle cramps and heart arrhythmia stop. Doctors won't tell you this.
I hope this helps somebody.
I found this video on Fakebook, so I borrowed it.
What Is Rheumatoid Arthritis? An Essay on the Joints, the Injection, and a Cure That Was Documented in 1939

Excerpt from the Congressional Record: "We are a group of neurologists, forensic psychiatrists, general psychiatrists, and other physicians, along with other mental health professionals, experienced in the diagnosis of cognitive disorders and in evaluating dangerousness to self and others. Among us are professionals whom the courts and criminal justice system regularly turn to for our expert opinion on these matters. We are also consulted by governments in matters related to national security and the psychological profiles of world leaders. Prior to the presidential election in the Fall of 2024, a statement assessing Donald J. Trump’s mental fitness for the presidency was issued. At that time, serious signs of cognitive decline were identified, and in our expert opinion, these signs warranted disqualification from office. It is our professional opinion, based on previous and ongoing assessments, that Donald Trump’s mental state since our 2024 statement has deteriorated even further. ..."

Interestingly, the fake media doesn't appear to have mentioned this. You'd have thought that it would be headline "news".
