It Is Almost Gone

A Letter to Patriots

The USA as a nation possessed by the idea that every person is entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is flickering and fading.

Let us first dispense with certain fictions.

It is important to understand that the idea that elections are an opportunity for a majority of citizens to decide upon the representatives they will send to congress, the White House, the halls of state and local government, etc., is a nonsense. In each and every election, the races are decided by a relatively small minority of the population. Even if one accepts the notion that Biden got 81 million votes, this represents less than a quarter of the overall population of the nation. Not even a respectable plurality, really.

Every election is decided by minorities. Thus we cannot simply rely on some hopeful or aspirational sense of good or decency in the common man. We cannot hope that righteous indignation and determination will bring a wave of voters to the polls such that the deluded and degenerate left is overwhelmed. The very best we can do is to make certain that the minority of good and decent people vote in the maximum number possible and that they further take assertive and even aggressive steps to ensure that the elections are operated as fairly as possible to permit their votes to make a difference.

Elections in the USA are now a contest between two minorities: the deluded and degenerate left, and those good and sane people who are not so jaded and cynical that they have abandoned voting entirely. Desperate times, especially when one considers that the right has conceded enough of the election apparatus to the left such that they can magnify their minority’s voting enough to overwhelm that of the right, virtually on demand.

Another fiction that must be dispensed with is the notion that USA elections have ever been ‘clean’. Further, they never will be totally clean. The evil and corrupted factions of society will always struggle to subvert and pervert the institutions of the Republic in their never-ending pursuit of its destruction. The struggle against these dark forces must be a permanent feature of civic life for all who wish to see their government serve the good and decent people who make up the majority of every population of every nation on earth.

Elections in the USA have ALWAYS been dirty. In colonial times, elections were decided by lavish barbecues and roving mobs of hooligans, used to either entice or drive away groups of voters. Such antics have extended into the modern era without interruption. See: https://www.brookings.edu/articles/a-short-history-of-campaign-dirty-tricks-before-twitter-and-facebook/

So, the reality is that the USA is ruled by politicians who are elected by small minorities of the citizens in electoral processes that are continuously corrupted at all levels via a range of means, both crude and sophisticated.

It is time to stop pretending that 2020 was some sort of outrageous aberration that must be dealt with before any other election can be countenanced. 2020 was business as usual. The only remarkable aspect of 2020 is that an unusually large minority of voters turned out for Trump such that the minority of votes counted for Biden had to be inflated by rather easily observed methods.

What was the response of the right to this overt manipulation of electoral results? Did they rise up and swamp the election apparatus in their area with volunteers, employment applications, etc.? Did they form committees to demand citizen scrutiny of the mail-in vote processing? Did they rise up by the many thousands in every state to force change to take place NOW?

Nope.

The right has descended into speculative nonsense about ‘trust the plan’ narratives that rest on imagined and increasingly unlikely notions like a devolved presidency, secret federal corporations, military takeovers of the government, etc. You have ostensible patriots saying that the 2020 election must be ‘dealt with’ before any other election will be worthy of their attention. You have absurd narratives like Tartaria, flat earth, etc. sucking the oxygen out of the room while the left does what it has done for the past 240-odd years, i.e., working hard to control the election apparatus such that the outcome of the permanently corrupted electoral process installs their minority’s selected representatives.

Let’s be honest with ourselves. “Clean” elections are, at best, a distant and future aspiration, an unreachable ideal. A heartwarming fantasy. The reality is that the very best we can do for the foreseeable future is to fight with every tool available to see to it that the minority of voters who happen to be good, decent people who truly want the best for the Republic can overwhelm the efforts by the competing minority working hard to steal the result (as they always have).

And it gets worse.

The 2024 election cycle could be the last one where determined citizens can make enough of a difference to save the Spirit of the Republic.

“In 2020, only 30.5% of voters cast their ballots in person on Election Day.”

https://www.eac.gov/sites/default/files/document_library/files/2020_EAVS_Report_Final_508c.pdf

This means that 70% of votes were submitted by mail or other means that did not involve physically appearing at a polling station to cast a ballot under supervised conditions. Rather than taking place at a location observed by volunteers, concerned citizens, 70% of the ballots processed were not subject to any scrutiny outside of a centralized facility operated by the county electoral apparatus.

At present, we have a system of elections that are operated by each county according to laws/processes set out by each state. This unwieldy structure means that citizens have the ability and opportunity to get meaningfully involved in the operation of their local elections. Citizens may volunteer at polling places. They may apply for jobs within the election system. They may run for offices that have authority within that election system.

The deranged and degenerate left hates this decentralized system. They have fought to centralize elections wherever they can. Mail in voting is a key component of this centralization. The left wants to drive all public scrutiny away from the voting process such that they can implement their manipulation with greater freedom and certainty. Arizona is highly instructive in this regard.

The Democrats are working hard to place federal controls over the electoral process. Or in other words, they are working to place the federal administrative deep state in a position to control future elections.

So, at this late hour, we have a precious opportunity before us. While the USA’s election system is battered and deeply flawed, it is still largely decentralized and locally operated. There are still many thousands of local positions to fill, both as volunteers and as employees, that will have significant importance in 2024. Citizens can still put their local election officials on notice that they will be carefully watched. Local committees can be formed to take action and even the acts of determined individuals can have a significant effect.

And this is where it comes down to YOU.

There are 175,441 precincts in the USA.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electoral_precinct#:~:text=The%202020%20survey%20by%20the,were%20in%20overseas%20U.S.%20territories.

There are about 38,800,000 registered Republicans in the USA.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/registered-voters-by-party#

If we accept for the moment that the population of good people who are going to be motivated to take action in the coming 2024 election would be largely drawn from this group (arguable, indeed, but for the purpose of this discussion it is a reasonable first approximation).

38,800,000 divided by 175,441 equals 221.

Two hundred twenty one registered Republicans per precinct.

Let us further presume that the majority of these Republicans simply cannot take the time needed to get deeply involved in the 2024 elections. Work, family, health, etc., will exclude most of the well-intended population from taking time-consuming actions.

Then there are the many who will be apathetic, jaded, cynical etc., such that they are unwilling to invest their time in their local elections.

What remains of that original 221? 10%? 5%? 1%?

What is abundantly clear is that the number of people who are on the side of right and good and have both the time, the means, and the motivation to get involved in their local elections is a tiny handful per precinct. In many/most cases, there may be only a precious single person ready to bring MAGA to their local polling station, tabulation center, etc.

If we understand that the 2020 election was influenced by widespread electoral corruption of all types, but was DETERMINED by outrageous corruption in only a handful of counties, one may see just how critical even a small number of MAGA election activists can be.

17SOG has been developing tools to help patriots to find the opportunities to make the very best use of their available resources in their local political systems. Strategic voting, volunteering, candidate support, standing for office, etc., can all be applied with great precision and purpose.

I urge, I beg, each and every patriot out there to stop wasting your time with nonsensical speculation about secret committees, fringe on flags, flat planets, etc., and make use of the tools offered by 17SOG to take meaningful action in your local community right now.

I urge, I beg, each and every patriot to shake loose the cynicism and pessimism that pervades so much of the MAGA community right now and regain the sense of optimism that drives Trump forward each day.

Do not wait for Trump to save you, get busy saving him and your Republic by taking local action right now.

Will we keep the legacy of liberty and justice that was handed down to us by the Founding Fathers? Will we struggle to keep elections sufficiently fair such that Good prevails over Evil? Will we have God-fearing politicians in office, or will those who serve darkness complete their takeover? Will we have Presidents who love the Republic or installed despots who seek to destroy it?

“A lady asked Dr. Franklin “Well Doctor what have we got a republic or a monarchy?” – “A republic” replied the Doctor if you can keep it.” 

Today, more than ever, keeping the Republic depends on YOU.
