Secession Speakeasy 12: Phantom Majority

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss an article written by election integrity activist Jay Valentine about the intricacies of certain election fraud efforts the Elites and their cronies engage in. What actions do Mr Valentine and his group carry out to fight back? What about the Elites’ tactics make the whole electoral fraud mess even more absurd? Why should secession movements be paying very close attention to and supporting the efforts of Valentine and his organization?

Secession Speakeasy 71 (Public House Edition): New England Secession: A Study in Practicalities

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss two contrasting proposals for secession from New England and the importance of practicality in proposing one’s plans. Why is it so important for secession activists to do their homework and put forward a practical plan for both what their goal is and how to accomplish it?

Secession Speakeasy 70: Nigerian CBDC experiment backfiring into Secession?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the unfolding situation in the Central African nation of Nigeria where it looks like a Davos program has backfired very badly and could instead lead to a breakup of the country and a long overdue correction of Elitist malfeasance from the colonial era.

Secession Speakeasy 69 (Public House Edition): A True Grassroots Secession!

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss a hidden gem of a story from Southwest Pennsylvania where a local resident has almost single-handedly launched a secession movement seeking to establish self-government for her suffering community. What can we learn from her dedicated effort and motives? Can people be led to learn the benefits of self-government through practical applications? Are the arguments she uses for her town’s right to self-determination any different in basic structure from arguments used on behalf of Texit, New Hampshire independence or Greater Idaho?

Here at "On This Terrestrial Ball" Family comes FIRST

This piece from the Acton Institute speaks very much to our views here at "On This Terrestrial Ball" on what the relationship should be between family and the workplace. Here we always says that "Family Comes First". That means occasionally we will have gaps in our publication schedule when we need to tend to matters which affect family. However we are still committed to spreading the word on the causes which are important to the everyday people so that EVERYONE will be able to put family first in the not-too-distant future and it is why we value your support so much! Be a rebel, raise a family and show & tell the family how much you love them! https://rlo.acton.org/archives/124383-your-job-is-not-your-family.html

Where We Have Been...

Our deepest apologies for being absent the last few weeks. Another member of the team became extremely ill and we were concerned about his well-being in addition to having family obligations for the great feast of Easter. Thankfully our team member is on the mend at last and our obligations have been largely met. We are working on new content now and hope to record and publish next week.
In the meantime, we have begun embarking on a venture to comment on those secession stories which we don't have time to cover in-depth on our podcast episodes. To this end we have started up a Substack which we hope to integrate more fully into the Locals setup here in the not-too-distant future. Here is our most recent piece. Enjoy! https://keepgovlocal.substack.com/p/the-breakup-of-new-york-city-continues

Article instead of Podcast this week

Greetings everyone!

Well, life intervened and we were unable to do podcasts this week for family reasons. However to make up for it we put forward an article for your viewing pleasure which was graciously published by Lew Rockwell at lewrockwell.com. Here is the piece which attempts to show the true state of affairs in America as opposed to what all the State of the Union Addresses tried to bring across last week. Read and enjoy! https://www.lewrockwell.com/2024/03/no_author/the-state-of-division-address/
