There was no federal income tax the first 137 years in America was a country.
Everything changed in 1913 with The Federal Reserve Act & 16th Amendment (Income Tax).
America’s wealth was built on productivity, and stolen by usury.

This soyish-looking figment of the FBI's imagination doesn't look even remotely look like Tyler Robinson.
My advice...release the fvcking Epstein files.
Tyranny needs fear to exist. To my college students & others, think of those who ran up the beaches of Normandy. Hold your convictions strong! – at Briarcliffe Acres, SC

Our first amendment rights are illegally abridged at Facebook. – at Briarcliffe Acres, SC
This morning, I got a text from my boss that said, “Hey, I need to talk to you.” Instantly, my stomach dropped. A few minutes later, he sent me screenshots Facebook had flagged one of my posts about Dr. Moore and COVID… and their AI system actually reached out to him to ask if my post aligned with his morals and values.
Yes, an algorithm tried to drag my boss into a “moral review” of my personal Facebook post.
Let that sink in: AI not a real person, not a human moderator decided my content was controversial enough to alert my employer and spark a values check. That’s how far it’s gone.
Luckily, I have an incredible boss who immediately shut it down with two sharp responses defending my right to speak. But the fact that an AI is now programmed to involve your workplace in content disputes? That should terrify everyone.

1). Some of Epstein's victims claimed he had hidden cameras, including tiny pinhole cameras, in locations like his Manhattan townhouse, used to monitor private moments in bedrooms and bathrooms. One victim described seeing stacks of TVs in a "media room" displaying surveillance feeds. Another victim described the cameras as "ubiquitous" in his New Mexico ranch.
2). There were other witness accounts. An attorney claimed that former employees and other victims insisted that all rooms in Epstein's mansions had constantly operating security cameras.
3). After a search warrant, the FBI (themselves) reportedly seized hard drives and potentially thousands of images and videos from Epstein's Manhattan mansion. During an earlier investigation, police found computer equipment, including monitors and disconnected surveillance cameras, in his Palm Beach home.
Epstein employed surveillance and hidden cameras in his residences and properties. That is a fact.
Some of the most wealthy and powerful people in the world were involved/compromised. And we're just supposed to believe that all those cameras recorded nothing? That a man engaged in the most evil sh*t you can do to little kids... never recorded people he had at his properties?
I will not let this go.
She is lying. They all are.
