  Harvesting Discontent: The Global Farmer’s Revolt  An agricultural revolution, farmers uprising worldwide, seeking to seed change… Kristian James 21st Century Wire When the ancestors of modern humans began to observe the cycles of plants, understanding the rhythm of the environment, and started utilizing the seed to plant the next crop. This knowledge solidified the formation of the beginning of agriculture. The end of roaming and hunting for food, the decision to gather together, and to prepare and wait for the success of good crops. Thus, farming developed as a skill integral to the development of all worldwide societies, defined by thousands of years of learned cultivation under the belts of countless generations, the ability to feed yourself and grow abundance, and also the ability to sell and trade. This is the very basis and crux of the world economy.  As we enter 2024, the year of the Dragon, Earth’s population has surpassed 8 billion, and the vital role of farmi...

  Gun police against unarmed farmers – the new siege of Paris By Richard Ings IN a distant echo of the Franco-Prussian War – this time with tractors rather than cannons – Paris is once more under siege. French farmers have, with military efficiency, cut off the main motorway arteries feeding the heart of the capital. Their message is simple: ‘no farmers = no food’.

Dark humour aside, this is no joke. It started before Christmas with farmers throughout the country  turning road signs upside-down  to express their exasperation at how the European Union and its French lackeys have been making life impossible for farmers t...

  Greg Abbott and the Invasion of the Border Snatchers Uncivil division in a collapsing country DONALD JEFFRIES We’ve come a long way from the Boston Tea Party. What would happen to “extremists” throwing tea into a harbor today? Independence Hall. Lexington and Concord. The Articles of Confederation. Patrick Henry declaring, “I may not agree with what you say, but I’ll defend to my dying day your right to say it.” The Founding Fathers (sorry, there were no Founding Mothers, and certainly no Founding Transgenders) would all be marginalized if they were living and breathing in the Orwellian mess that is America 2.0. They’d be relegated to writing on Substack. Maybe some of them would be subscribers of mine. No mainstream media outlet would give them even a momentary platform. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? Keep your “insurrectionist” thoughts to yourself. That little line should be confined to Ben Franklin’s womanizing. Yes, Ben actually used “would you like to join me ...
