Real people, who pay attention and really listen to everyone, while developing a well informed opinion that they stand by and are willing to explain as they calmly share it.
We need more of those people, as one of you, just isn't enough. I'm only sorry I found Substack so late, only last month or I could have been wiser and calmer a year ago!
Loved the post and the history you kindly shared. The Truth Portal Project is a great idea and maybe the most obvious consequence to what you do here. Your well-researched posts are a monument of common decency to most people who still believe that Truth Matters most. Thank you again, Martin.
I’m so glad you’re doing this. I sit and wonder how we will get honest feedback on what’s happening since they are buying up all of the news channels so they can give us only the info they wish us to believe. We need someway to continue on with truth. Some way they cannot stop or modify or take over. Thanks for your interest in America.
Thank you doesn't cut it. I feel a welling up of gratitude for your deep commitment to the truth during these dark times. These crazy times are cefilled with lies from an unholy administration that seems to actually believe those lies. They also seem hell-bent on destruction, on many levels!
Thank you for your kind words Cara. I’m heartened by the number of people who have reached out to wish me good luck.
This is not a hobby for me it’s a vocation. In a world driven by profit and greed, I intend to prove that you don’t need a corporate budget to make a difference.
No question I’m nervous, but to do a good job nerves are a good thing - Martin
thanks for responding Martin. There are a lot of truth. People don’t want to hear in my country and just about the whole system and how it’s not just this regime. It’s not just Trump history that play here especially the Civil War right now the south is winning. Beyond that there’s a lot of issues with the structure of our law, which became more English than we wanted it to be after the revolution. To get my activist friends eyes glaze over I explain that actually happened, because it’s easier to blame it on Trump! So maybe sometime I could contribute to your new portal because what’s needed here is actually systemic change not just regime change!
Keep an eye out for me opening the door to submissions for consideration Cara. Once I get through March which will be manic, I’ll can settle into content expansion - Martin.
You are embarking upon a journey that will require a lot of dedication and commitment to fact finding , interpretation, sifting and analysis … which you excel at all . I look forward to this next chapter of your second career . I’m happy you explained your father’s character and outreach to his community. I’m a firm believer that your role models are intrinsically important in who you become and clearly your father set an excellent foundation. Thank you for your insight and dedication to pushing the truth forward . In these times of AI and network propaganda news, we need real facts and truth now more than ever.
Thank you as ever Bonnie. I’m quietly excited and really looking forward to delivering a resource that I am confident will help in this existential fight against tyranny.
I’ve surrounded myself with the right tools to get the job done. My bank manager had a heart attack, but he’ll get over it 🤣🤣
I have been enjoying your content for free (which I appreciate so much) for nearly a year and it has been timely, accurate, and valuable every day. Just pay- subscribed and am looking forward to what you have planned.
My friend I sincerely hope you didn’t feel pressure from me to subscribe? I am very clear in my intentions here, I want nobody to put themselves under pressure for me, that’s not why I do this.
Yes it costs money to do this work properly and yes I’ve personally invested more. While it’s true to say I can’t do this on my own, it’s important that nobody feels pressured into supporting me. There are many ways to show support as I mentioned in this piece. We’re a community and we will always prevail somehow.
So THANK YOU for putting your faith and trust in what I’m doing, I won’t let you down. - Martin
I can afford it for now. If I quit subscribing, it will be because you changed or I can no longer afford it. I love what you are doing and want you to keep it up. Perhaps it will be easier for you since you are not under the thumb of American fascism. That is my hope and I wish you the best moving forward.
The Truth Portal is the next step and a great idea. I am very appreciative of what you do for others. In this world of greed and self-interest, it is refreshing to have someone -you -with compassion and generosity.
Thank you for your thoughtful approach to what is needed in these times—something measured and available to all which can help substantiate, explain and balance the unfortunate glut of reaction which this regime’s MO non-stop flinging of disaster, lies and mud each morning precipitates.
This landed at exactly the right time. Your opening about the deliberate chaos strategy is something I've been writing about from inside it, and it's refreshing to find someone naming it so clearly from the outside. What you're building sounds worth building. I'll be watching with interest.
A worthy cause - needs worthy aims and I have two for you to consider -as we ae already on the same page.
1.) to tell the compllete and unudultrated Truth in all cases - and
2.) to hold those that have brought about / caused the problems - at the ground-level - accountable.
That takes throwing away all pretense of favoritism on anything - and take the road where it leads in this perilous place this Nation is in.
My understanding and "feelings" concerning the founding of the US as a Country; with it's Govenrment mechanism, is this:
The United States of AMerica was founded by the Founding Fathers on the "hope" that there would never be an American citizen who would independently, conscienciously work to cause damage to the one thing that made the US so unique - It's Constitution based on Self Governence.
There are two groups of US citizens that for multiples of decades, have acted under either a "political belief" or self concocted "tradition"; with no wiggle-room for either: -- that their individual and conscientiously chosen actions - have caused great damage to the US Constitution- and to the Nation in the eyes of the other Countries arond the world.
They are:
a.) the individual US citizen / voter of one of the two US Political Parties, who in the last several decades - have consistanly voted for what has now mastitized into actively changing the Government from it's Republic form - to an authoritarian form / Dictatorship: and
b.) the present and recently retired US Military Leadership Chain of Command Members; who for unknown decades have chosen to blindly / automatically follow all orders and / or commands, thus breaking their Oath of Allegiance to the US Constitition - only.
Their self-demonstrated complicity is compounded by their own Military Code of Uniform Justice (UCMJ) specifically delineates in Articles 90 and 92 -- that they cannot issue or follow an illegal order or command - and have they have the individiual duty to make their own personal decision as to the legality of any ussued order or command.
Furthermore and most damning is the following: - their Oath then includes the words -that they swore to - to fight all enemies, foreign and domestic..." - which their "track record" show that they are choosing to totally disregard - by themselves "choosing" to obey all orders comingform this duly elected by now totall, by legal defintion - self-made illegal Govenrment presently in place.
You do these two things - and you will have created a solid foundation for all other thins that need to be delineated.
But without a solid foundation - for all to see and based solely on facts - what your are contemplating - will be just another house of cards.
I would respectfully disagree on the subject of a general strike. Putting aside there is never likely to be an appetite for the type of wide spread participation in such an endeavour. It is a last century tool I’m afraid.
I have long argued however for targeted economic disengagement in terms of a sustained spending strike, which I have written about in some detail.
i'm interested and looking for instructions as you move forward with your plans.
Real people, who pay attention and really listen to everyone, while developing a well informed opinion that they stand by and are willing to explain as they calmly share it.

Thank you Martin. ♥️
Thank you Sue, you’re here now, so let’s look forward and not back. Let’s circle back in a month when my plans start coming together. - Martin
This 🇨🇦 Veteran is ready to take direction on how to turn this ship around. At your service.

You are very welcome and I appreciate your kind words. This represents I big step and a big commitment, but I’m good with that. I’m all in.
I’m so glad you’re doing this. I sit and wonder how we will get honest feedback on what’s happening since they are buying up all of the news channels so they can give us only the info they wish us to believe.

I’ve got you, don’t worry. - Martin
