Black Navy of American Independence

On June 19th. and August 1 of 2921m I made two posts that depicted the future of America – if Kamala Harris won! I took precautions – if Donald Trump won. This is a glimpse of what – could have been. And

SHOULD HAVE BEEN

When I saw the Franch fleet put black Haitians ashore to attack Savana, I went into Dream Time. I an a time traveler. Did I captian a U.S.S. Enterprise – in the furure?

Captain John Presco

The Black Liberation Navy

On this day, June Ninteenth 2021, I John Presco, a grandson of German Turnverien and Forty-eighters, suggested to the Vice President, and President, the founding of The Black Liberation Navy, that was seeded by my foundation of The Marin Shipmates.

If it were not for humankind being experienced sailors, then the Slave Trade would not have existed. White Captains and Sailors brought kidnapped slaves to all parts of the globe. My Country is prepared to spend a trillion dollars on new Naval vessels, and other military hardware, to meet the threat from China’s “People’s Liberation Navy”. China’s leaders have mocked our State Department, and the President of the United States, saying We The People of the United States have no right to negotiate, or give any democratic lessons to anyone – anywhere – because of the way we have treated black people, first as slaves, and then as liberated people. The Civil War was fought by white men, and sometimes, brothers. There is talk or Reparations. I believe this is called for.

What I propose, is The Black Liberation Navy, that will be made up of black men and women, who having served for two years, are given the Deed to Condominiums and homes. This will establish a Generational Equity and Investment in Liberty that will alas break the last bonds of slavery. This resembles the Jubilee that I believe Jesus came to restore. No religious belief is required. China is moving into Africa with their People’s Liberation Navy. China’s fishing fleet is off the coast of South America competing with nations there. The Black Liberation Navy will Liberate the Oceans of the World!

Captain Isaac Hull is my alleged great grandfather who liberated American and British sailors who were captured and made slaves by the Barbary Coast pirates who were paid by the Caliph.

Juneteenth[ (officially Juneteenth National Independence Day and historically known as Jubilee Day,[2] Black Independence Day,[3] and Emancipation Day[4][5]) is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating emancipation of enslaved African Americans. It is also often observed for celebrating African American culture.[6] Originating in Galveston, Texas, it has been celebrated annually on June 19 in various parts of the United States since 1866. The day was recognized as a federal holiday on June 17, 2021, when President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law.[7][8][9] Juneteenth’s commemoration is on the anniversary date of the June 19, 1865, announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army general Gordon Granger, proclaiming and enforcing freedom of enslaved people in Texas,[10] which was then the last state of the former Confederacy in which slavery was still being permitted by the state government.

President Abraham Lincoln‘s Emancipation Proclamation of 1862 had officially outlawed slavery in Texas and the other states that had rebelled against the Union almost two and a half years earlier. Enforcement of the Proclamation generally relied on the advance of Union troops. Texas, as the most remote of the slave states, had seen an expansion of slavery and had a low presence of Union troops as the American Civil War ended; thus, enforcement there had been slow and inconsistent prior to Granger’s announcement.[10] Although the Emancipation Proclamation declared an end to slavery in the Confederate States, slavery was still legal and practiced in two Union border states – Delaware and Kentucky – until December 6, 1865, when ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution abolished chattel slavery nationwide. Additionally, Indian Territories that had sided with the Confederacy, namely the Choctaw, were the last to release those enslaved, in 1866.[11][12][13][c][14]

Celebrations date to 1866, at first involving church-centered community gatherings in Texas. It spread across the South and became more commercialized in the 1920s and 1930s, often centering on a food festival. Participants in the Great Migration out of the South carried their celebrations to other parts of the country. During the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, these celebrations were eclipsed by the nonviolent determination to achieve civil rights, but grew in popularity again in the 1970s with a focus on African-American freedom and African-American arts. Beginning with Texas by proclamation in 1938, and by legislation in 1979, 49 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, have formally recognized the holiday in various ways.[d]

Modern observance is primarily in local celebrations. Traditions include public readings of the Emancipation Proclamation, singing traditional songs such as “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” and “Lift Every Voice and Sing“, and reading of works by noted African-American writers, such as Ralph Ellison and Maya Angelou. Celebrations include rodeosstreet fairscookoutsfamily reunions, park parties, historical reenactments, and Miss Juneteenth contests. Juneteenth is also celebrated by the Mascogos, descendants of Black Seminoles who escaped from slavery in 1852 and settled in CoahuilaMexico.[19][20] Juneteenth is the first new federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was declared a holiday in 1983.

Captain of The USS Enterprise

Posted on April 27, 2021 by Royal Rosamond Press

My grandfather, Royal Rosamond, wrote in one of his books that one of his grandfathers Captained the U.S.S. Constitution. All night long, my Sea Angel bid me to gather around me all the power others have take from me. Yesterday, I edited the wikipedia citation on Christine Rosamond Benton. I challenged the sentence saying – it was not the season for rogue waves! If you have been at sea, or, just stood at the shore, you should know there is no season for rogues waves. They can occur at anytime, and any place. According to a reader at the Berkeley Psychic Institute, I died at the edge of the sea in February of 1967. This morning, when I opened my eyes, a voice bid me to declare myself THE CAPTAIN OF THE USS. ENTERPRISE.

USS Enterprise (1799) – Wikipedia

Here is an article that repeats what I have been saying and seeing in the blog, and in my Bond book ‘The Royal Janitor’ inspired by the incredible memory of Rena Easton who I rescued by the Venice Pier in 1970.

Spy chiefs look to declassify intel after rare plea from 4-star commanders (msn.com)

““We request this help to better enable the US, and by extension its allies and partners, to win without fighting, to fight now in so-called gray zones, and to supply ammunition in the ongoing war of narratives,” the commanders who oversee U.S. military forces in Asia, Europe, Africa, Latin America, as well as special operations troops, wrote to then-acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire last January.

“Unfortunately, we continue to miss opportunities to clarify truth, counter distortions, puncture false narratives, and influence events in time to make a difference,” they added.”

President Thomas Jefferson studied the U.S. Constitution before he sent the Enterprise and USS Constitution to the Barbary Coast to wage war on the Caliph and his pirates that were taking US Merchantmen hostage – and selling them into slavery. Britain just announced “Global Britain” will be sending warships to confront the Chinese Navy. My alleged grandfather captained The Enterprise! Am I the Futurian manifestations of Jean-Luc Picard in present time?

Rick Santorum made a statement there was nothing in the Americas when white men came here. My great grandfather, Puritan leader, John Wilson, learned the native language, and with the help of John Elliot printed the first New Bible in the new world, in the language of the natives. Emperor Charles Quint sent a Holy Navy to the Americas in order to bring it into the Holy Spanish Empire, he claiming he had a edict from King Jesus to do this. He was the first to kidnap black slaves in Africa to aide his Conquistador Christian Army – that had waged war against the Protestant Queen of England.

China and its Navy is making a move on the high seas, and in South America. What I suggest is the formation of a Indigenous People Navy, and Marine Guard, stationed in Puerto Quetzal Guatemala. China has criticized the ethnic make-up of the United States in taking away our Right, and our Permission, to employ our Navy where we deem fit.

I see the building of a Atlantis in Guatemala where the Native Navy and North American Marine Guard will be stationed. This force will put an end to the gangs who are the new pirates of the New World who are waging war against women, children, and the traditional family values the Puritans found in New England. I see a United States Navy made up of the Tribal People’s of the United States who immigrated from Asia. I see a Earth Navy stationed in the North American Continent that will look to promoting, and protecting, Cosmic Justice and Freedom. I suggest the remains of Commodore Isaac Hull be exhumed so our DNA can be compared. The Barbary Coast Ghost Ships must sail again, and confront the haters of Liberty.

“In the U.S. Space Force, we are challenged every day to find new heights. Working within the space domain, our people launch rockets, keep satellites safe and operational, and develop technology to defend our way of life on Earth through our interests in space. We protect the hopes and dreams of America and exploration, while preparing for the 22nd century. When humankind asks “What if”, the mission of Space Force is to be the answer.”

Lee’s battleships for a thrust into the Marianas and the invasion of Saipan. Hull bombarded Saipan 13 June, covered minesweeping operations with gunfire, and patrolled during the initial landing 15 June.

China’s Effort to Become Latin America’s Most Important Ally | Time

In April 2020, as COVID-19 began to tear through Latin America, the leftist bloc in the Paraguayan Senate introduced a bill to open relations with Beijing–which would inevitably mean ending recognition of Taiwan. The Senators argued that the pandemic would make Chinese support–in the form of masks and ventilators, but also investment, trade and possibly a vaccine–crucial in the coming years.

One response to “The Black Liberation Navy”

  1. Royal Rosamond Press AvatarRoyal Rosamond PressMarch 5, 2022 at 5:14 pmEditReblogged this on Rosamond Press and commented:Vice President Kamala Harris is being attacked by the Confederate War Cultist for paying attention to gay gender people, and not Putin and his threat t take away the Statehood of people of the Ukraine for fighting back, like naughty children. I awoke wondering what Black People of America think about this White Brutality – against white people! Why are white people allowed to invade other white people – and take their shit? That is not Putin’s nuclear plant. I am ahead of the curve. The President should appoint Kamala the head of a all Black Navy and send warships to Africa to assure Black Africans Papa Putin is not going to be their Big Daddy and be allowed to come to Africa to murder people – and take their shit. China has invested billions in Africa, and will have to explain why they are not condemning Papa Putin.

Black National Guard

Posted on June 8, 2021 by Royal Rosamond Press

I believe a Bill should be passed to create The Black National Guard. When I saw President Biden in Tulsa I wanted to post on the Marin Shipmates I founded. I knew they were coming to Tulsa, aspects of the Black Panther Party. I am for making Washington D.C. a State and a sanctuary for the descendants of Black Slaves, who are the target of the ongoing Christian Schism that led to the Civil war. On a Black Panther facebook I posted this video of Indigenous Americans marching Prussian style in Chile. There are eighteen million Guatemalans, many who are crossing our borders looking for a better way of life. There are forty-eight million black CITIZENS in the United States – still waiting for a better way of life.

Now is the time for Church Leaders across America to call for a complete investigation into the Insurrection – and begin authoring a paper showing their involvement. I will prove Jesus is not on their side.

When I AWOKE, God bid me to give Alaska to Black Americans – and the 39 Navy ships – including the Enterprise. Forty is a blessed Jewish number. I had no choice to take on this impossible task after reading articles about changing the name OF PLACES that offend black people – and Native Americans? I’ve been down this road before. Thanks to Black Folks, Donald Trump is not the President of the United States….and in gratitude We the People should rename Coon Lake?!!! That’s it? Wow! What a deal!

In theory, all those top secret document Crazy Donald stole – belong to Black Voters, who I already suggested should have their own navy. Now is the time! Our Navy is about to scrap forty ships! The New Cold War Map is being REDRAWN. I and God – want a hand in this project!

THE NEW RED DAWN ART PROJECT

Several years ago, I stood before the Mayor of Springfield, and gave the City Council my plan to rename Franklin Street – HARRY LANE. The deadline to get in the race for Springfield Mayor, ended on the 22nd. I am setting my sights for the White House!

I have not read this article about Coon Lake. Was it named after a – RACOON?

Once Black Folks own Alaska, they can rebel, leave the Union, and rename Alaska. My point is – WHITE RACIST PROPAGANDA WORKS! How PETTY can you be? The Republican Party grabbed State Secrets and threatened to start a Civil War – even if President Biden – asks for his secrets, back!

If I had become Governor of Oregon, I would bid Congressman Peter DeFazio to make Portland the Naval Scrapper of America. The homeless would be employed and the monies used to build low cost housing for Black People in Oregon, Alaska – and elsewhere. This is REPERATIONS made easy!

How Maps Name, Claim, and Inflame

Mark Monmonier

Offensive toponyms fall into two categories. One type, examined earlier, denigrates racial and ethnic groups. The other variety, dealt with here, offends folks bothered by rude or otherwise impolite references to body parts, sex, excrement, and other no-no’s. A form of geographic cussing, rowdy feature names are markedly less controversial than their ethnically derogatory counterparts, partly because the irreverent miners and ranchers responsible for most of them avoided the F-word and similar shockers, and partly because questionable toponyms occur mostly in remote, sparsely inhabited areas with few eyebrows to raise. Indeed, an outsider who objects to a locally acceptable “naughty name” is quickly branded a stuffed shirt or prude.

Renaming Coon Lake would right a historical wrong | The Seattle Times

The U.S. Board on Geographic Names has reversed itself and agreed to change the controversial names of two geographic features in the Cascades—Coon Lake and Coon Creek—to Howard Lake and Howard Creek, after a pioneering prospector who lived there in the 1890s. The reversal was confirmed by the board’s executive secretary, You Lost.

Harry Lane – Is Our Man!

On this day, June 24, 2015, as historian to the Abolitionist Families of Benton and Fremont,  I declare the name of our County should be named after Harry Lane, the son of the Confederate, Joseph Lane. For the reason Joseph engaged in terrorism and slavery, and for the reason we are at war with ISIS who takes people as slaves, and for the reason the Confederate flag in South Carolina – must come down – let it be known, the sins of the father did not come down to Harry, who is a hidden treasure of liberalism and fair play for all. There not be any need for a name-change that would be very costly. Harry was a frugal politician who worked for the right for women to vote – and the Rose Festival of Portland.

Mount Rushmore Protection Act Introduced In Response To Jalen Rose (outkick.com)

Former NBA player and current ESPN analyst Jalen Rose recently tried to cancel Mount Rushmore with one of the most ridiculous rants of all time. South Dakota Representative Dusty Johnson has responded by introducing a bill to protect the memorial.

Earlier this month, Rose called Mount Rushmore “offensive” while poorly explaining that the national memorial is racist.

“Can we retire using ‘Mount Rushmore?’ That should be offensive to all of us, especially Native Americans, Indigenous people who were the first people here before Christopher Columbus,” Rose said.

JALEN ROSE WANTS TO CANCEL MOUNT RUSHMORE

Mount Rushmore has been used as a common phrase for generations when debating the four greatest athletes, musicians, public figures, etc. but Rose decided now is the time to whine about it.

“So, I call for you and for myself — I’m owning this, too — let’s stop using the term ‘Mount Rushmore’ when we’re talking about our favorite rappers, talking about our favorite movies, talking about our favorite players,” Rose explained.

Artistic Development of Gutzon Borglum

The greatest artist to come out of Nebraska – by far – is Gutzon Borglum, who created Mount Rushmore. Gutzon and his family lived in Omaha and Fremont City. When they moved to Los Angeles, my kindred, Jessie Benton-Fremont, became his patron. She sent Gutzon to famous art schools in Europe. Gutzon did a bust of Jessie, and a portrait of John Fremont.

Kremlin propagandists on Russian state television issued a new narrative this week about President Vladimir Putin’s “special military operation” in Ukraine that has cost tens of thousands of lives and placed Europe on the potential brink of multiple nuclear disasters.

Russia’s notoriously Orwellian disinformation frequently oozes with genocidal rhetoric and is often self-contradictory.

But the proclamations that panelists on Russia 1 spewed out on Tuesday – which only appear on the network with Putin’s approval – stretch even the most extreme dystopian gaslighting to preposterous new lengths.

If the Navy Really Decommissions 39 Ships in 2023, It’ll Only Help China

  • The Navy has submitted plans to decommission nearly three-dozen ships in 2023.
  • The loss in hulls comes just as the Navy reports it has reached a high of 300 ships.
  • One of the ships, USS St. Louis, cost $450 million and has been with the fleet for just two years.

The U.S. Navy plans to shed more than three-dozen ships in 2023. While some ships are too old, having served for nearly four decades, some are seemingly too young, having served for just three to five years of their projected 25-year lifespans. The service, which has pledged to increase the size of the fleet for years, will decommission a total of 39 ships next year, including 23 from the battle fleet roster.

Among the ships are two submarines, nine littoral combat ships, five cruisers, and six amphibious ships, according to U.S. Naval Institute News. The list also includes five small patrol boats, transport ships, and fuel and ammunition ships.

Twenty-three ships belong to Ship Battle Forces, a category that includes“warships capable of contributing to combat operations, or a United States Naval Ship that contributes directly to Navy war-fighting or support missions.” Ship Battle Forces is the critical figure that the Navy and others use as a benchmark to compare the fleet to foreign enemies, particularly China. The number of U.S. ships in this category went from 318 in 2000 to a post-Cold War low of 271 in 2015. Today, the number stands at 300.

The Pentagon and Navy have repeatedly pledged to increase the size of Ship Battle Forces. Each time the number of ships grows, while the date of completion gets pushed back. In 2017, the Navy believed it could get to 355 ships by 2030. Earlier this year, the Navy said it could get to 373 crewed ships and 150 robo-warships, a total of 523 ships, by 2045. Although declaring shipbuilding a priority, the Pentagon and Navy have not allocated funding to support significant growth over the long term.

Taiwan thanks its navy amid tensions with China

Losing 23 ships from Ship Battle Forces will send the number of hulls plummeting back to 2015 levels. More ships will be commissioned in 2023, but given recent trends, the Navy will only build only about one-third of the ships to make up for the planned loss. The Navy could end up taking one step forward and three steps back.

How did it come to this? After 9/11, the Navy struggled to remain relevant as America and its allies fought land wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Navy’s littoral combat ship and Zumwalt-class destroyers were meant to provide support to land forces. The Navy, lacking a major peer adversary, enjoyed sea superiority by default.

The rise of the Chinese navy, and to a lesser extent the Russian navy, challenged America’s dominance at sea. At the same time, mechanical problems with the frigate-sized littoral combat ships, as well as development problems, hobbled their use. The ships are also expensive to operate, costing $70 million a year, compared to $81 million for the far more capable Arleigh Burke-class destroyer. The Navy also tried and failed to develop a replacement for the Ticonderoga-class cruisers.

© NurPhoto – Getty ImagesUSS Vicksburg, shown here outside the Bulgarian port of Varna, is close to finishing a $200 million upgrade. Under Navy plans, she would be retired this year.

Now, the Navy wants to shelve the oldest of the Ticonderoga-class ships, arguing that they are worn out after more than three decades of use. The service wants to retire five Ticonderogas—the oldest commissioned in 1985 and the youngest in 1992. The Navy even wants to retire USS Vicksburg, on the cusp of finishing a $200 million upgrade, effectively throwing the money away. Together, the five ships have a total of 610 vertical launch silos capable of launching anti-air, anti-submarine, land attack, and anti-ship missiles—with not even a rough idea of when they might be replaced.

The Navy also wants to decommission almost all of the existing Freedom-class littoral combat ships. Each of the nine ships cost $500 million to build, for a total of about $4.5 billion in ships. The oldest of the ships, USS Fort Worth, is ten years old, while the youngest, USS St. Louis, is just over two years old. About five more littoral combat ships are in various stages of construction and fitting out, and it’s hard to see the Navy keeping those ships for any significant amount of time.

© – – Getty ImagesThis undated photo taken in April 2018 shows China’s sole operational aircraft carrier, the Liaoning (front), sailing with other ships during a drill at sea. Since then, China has probably added more than 100 warships to its fleet.

Congress and the Navy don’t see eye-to-eye on this. Congress wants the Navy to retain all of the Battle Force Ships scheduled for disposal, with the exception of two Los Angeles-class nuclear-powered attack submarines. While it’s easy to say the Navy should retain the ships, at closer glance, the age of the Ticonderogas and the sheer number of flaws and problems with the littoral combat ships means the fleet is probably better off without them. The real problem is, if the ships were decommissioned today, the Navy couldn’t make up for the loss of capability for another decade—even if it had the money.

Will the Navy grow the fleet to match China? Those in charge at the Department of Defense and Navy seem determined to make it happen, but also equally determined to fumble the job. Year after year, lofty goals and ambitious timelines are floated and then nothing ever comes to fruition. Only one navy in the Pacific is sticking to its goals: in 2021, the People’s Liberation Army Navy of China commissioned 32 ships.

P.S. I just read this post – that contains the lost chapter of my Bond book ‘The Royal Janitor’. It was posted in December of 2019 and talks about Victoria wearing a mask. Covid-19 was just being detected in China. I write about Trump manipulating the Electorial College, and Rudy dismissing our ambassador to Ukraine.

“Fuck! I had planned to go shopping while in London! I can’t be seen like this!”

“Wear a smog mask. They make very expensive ones that are in fashion! Don’t get up.”

‘POTUS is poised to sign an executive order, turning four States over to Putin…..BREATH!”

“Why would he do such a thing?’

“Think Electorial College and the fact the West will forever be for the Democrats. California has 58 electorial votes, that will be removed from the election of POTUS. If this happens, then there will forever be a Republican President. No longer will the Repbulican Abortion and Heathen Club have to get dirt on the Democrats. This is a religious cult, who for two thusand years have taken over the land of Non-Christians who are deemed godless heathens -who can not be saved. This is why POTUS built his wall. ”

Rudolph Giuliani said in an interview that he briefed the president “a couple of times” about Marie Yovanovitch, the envoy to Ukraine, setting her recall in motion.

U.S. warns China risks embarrassment if it backs Russia on Ukraine (msn.com)

The significance of Putin and Xi’s meeting on the eve of the Beijing Winter Olympics was not lost on the United States, and Daniel Kritenbrink, the top U.S. diplomat for East Asia, said that Moscow and Beijing have grown more closely aligned. But if Russia chooses to invade Ukraine again, the move could “embarrass Beijing” because “it suggests that China is willing to tolerate or tacitly support Russia’s efforts to coerce Ukraine,” he told reporters Friday.

On its homepage Friday afternoon, Bloomberg published the headline: “Russia Invades Ukraine.” 

  • Russia hadn’t in fact invaded Ukraine.
  • Bloomberg said the headline was “inadvertently published” and apologized.

Bloomberg has apologized for publishing a headline stating that Russia had invaded Ukraine. 

On Friday afternoon, a headline appeared at the top of the Bloomberg homepage that said: “Live: Russia Invades Ukraine.”

Bloomberg said later on Friday: “We prepare headlines for many scenarios and the headline ‘Russia Invades Ukraine’ was inadvertently published around 4 p.m. ET today on our website. We deeply regret the error. The headline has been removed and we are investigating the cause.” 

Olga Lautman, a Kremlin analyst who spotted the error, told the New York Post: “I went on the site and saw the breaking news but knew it wasn’t real because I deal with Ukraine and will be one of the first to know. It is bizarre and a pretty big mistake to make considering this is a potential large scale invasion and everyone is on edge.”

Chapter Five: The Manhattan Declaration

“She’s pregnant!” Clive told Victoria across the cold glass that covered his families ancient mahogany desk where the fate of world’s shipping was mapped out in secret trade agreements. Everything was Insured.

“Who’s pregnant?” Victoria asked, and tried to oppress the hot blood that rushed to her brain.

“Miriam.” Clive said, and studied Victoria’s reaction.

“She’s….with child? She told me she was a virgin. I am a virgin. That was our seal, our bond. How do you know? Did she tell you?”

“Breath! Take three deep breaths – and think calm thoughts. Your face is turning red. You need to meditate!”

“I need to meditate?” Victoria was fighting off a torrent of Christian Shame. She had used logic to dismiss the truth that she was having a Lesbian relationship, but, the idea that her lover got pregnant, filled her soul, her brain, with the idea she had done something – very bad – as if she knocked-up her beloved Starfish.

How she acquired Catholic Sin in the bowels of the College of Heraldry, must be due to all the mottos she read on the Coat of Arms, and, the religious notes she had to carefully study in cases of Crusader Knighthood. There were many who belonged to orders that sprang from Jerusalem. There was images of baby Jesus in a manger. All this sin and shame!

“How did you find out Starfish is pregnant? Victoria was glaring at Clive.

“Please! Sit back down. Take three deep breaths. Our toilets test all BAD women, automatically, when you use them.”

“You mean……you chemically analyze our urine – in the toilet? Do you test for drugs, too? Do you take pictures of us?’

“Yes – breath!”

Victoria slid out of the chair in a dead faint. Her chin his the glass top and put a crack in it. When she came to, she was on the greatest leather sofa ever made. A antiseptic sheet was put on it. Victoria heard the sound of the last staple put in her chin. Her wound required three staples. The BAD doctor wiped away the blood that had rolled down her neck and stained the sheet. Victoria tried to wipe away the vision of a grown man pissing in a BAD toilet with his…….She had never seen a penis!

“Are the men at BAD tested? Do you have photos of them relieving themselves on file!” asked Victoria, she sounding like a moron due to her lower jaw being numb. Reaching with her hand, she swore when she felt the big white bandage.

“Fuck! I had planned to go shopping while in London! I can’t be seen like this!”

“Wear a smog mask. They make very expensive ones that are in fashion! Don’t get up.”

“Fuck you! Give me something to throw. It must be spendy. Couldn’t you have ordered a bouquet of flowers and put them on the desk, when you told me the fucking blessed good news. I love Miriam, you rotten bastards! I feel so defiled! I want my tinkling pics – now! And Miriam’s! How dare you! Is nothing sacred?”

“We do not capture you while tinkling, but when you turn on the faucet to wash your hands. This flushes the toilet. Haven’t you noticed the delay?”

‘Why do you do this?” Victoria asked, then, took three quiet breaths. “Washing ones hands is a very sacred practice – you creeps! When we use public toilets we spread the message we are not spreading germs. You have dirtied – us! We love our mirrors you place a camera behind. We give our best look. Why!”

“When women have an unexpected pregnancy, they become very vulnerable – to our enemy. Most women believe it is their right to privately summon their higher power to deal with – the big surprise! Many women have no higher power, and fall back on the myth of pure logic – that does not exist! Everyone in Western Culture is subjected to a Shame-base, Christian morality. It comes with the total package. There exist a very intrusive ambitious Abortion Cult that swoops down on vulnerable women in high places. Have you heard of Charles Colson?”

“Do you mean, Chuck Colson, of Watergate fame?”

‘Yes! He was ordered by the President to get something dirty on the Democrats. There was talk one of the leaders owned a porno collection of naked Hippies posing with Senators and Congressmen at a commune on a secret island. Have you heard of Jonah Puffhausen, and Cardinal Foley?”

Foley I know very well. I worked on his genealogy and coat of arms. He subscribe to the coming of a American Prophet who would rebuild the temple in Jerusalem! Miriam knew when to close her mouth, and listen.

“Here’s the bottom line. There are Americans and Russians who believe Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and California belongs to Russia via saints of the Russian Orthodox Church that built Fort Ross. Miriam’s parents were leaders in this movement. They met Jonah at UC Berekley. Jonah sent them to Oregon where they eventually studied at North West University. They founded the Russian Bear and Star club. This is the Star of Bethlehem held in the talons of the double eagle of the Orthodox church.”

Clive studied Victoria as she did a chart in her head. She connected some dots to coats of arms, and other private information secret orginizations with the College of Heradlry. Many people want to be seen as immortal. When she read the President of the United States was wanting a bogus coat of arms, she picked up the phone and out the kabash on his fraudulent dream.”

‘POTUS is poised to sign an executive order, turning four States over to Putin…..BREATH!”

“Why would he do such a thing?’

“Think Electorial College and the fact the West will forever be for the Democrats. California has 58 electorial votes, that will be removed from the election of POTUS. If this happens, then there will forever be a Republican President. No longer will the Repbulican Abortion and Heathen Club have to get dirt on the Democrats. This is a religious cult, who for two thusand years have taken over the land of Non-Christians who are deemed godless heathens -who can not be saved. This is why POTUS built his wall. ”

Victoria went to rub her chin, and, felt the bandage. She understood all this via Christian coat of arms – and flags!

“We can not tell Miriam. She was seduced by a disciple of Puffhausin who she had a crush on when they met. She was fifteen. He was twenty. They both have Royal Alute blood. There has been an interest in their breeding, and the child they would produce. They are looking for their Virgin Mary.”

‘Does Miriam know about this?”

“Some. Her increble intuition is putting the jigsaw puzzle together, starting with the blue sky pieces. You know how she is. We have set up a War Room. We want you to do a chart. You, we, must arrive at the epicenter before Miriam does. I’m afraid she sees you as a conduit of information. She does not want to see you this way. She will use you. You must use her. Study Calexit and its connecteion to Brexit. The Manhatten cult wants to do away with the Europan Union and NATO. They convinced POTUS France was the world capitol of infidelity because French men of means have a mistress.”

(Blank stares exchanged here)

Here is the Manhatten Declaration and a list of times POTUS said there would be an uprising if he is Impeached. The Democrats will file tomorrow. They are having a pow-wow right now. You need to do a Story Board. We are looking at Biblical Prophecy – LIVE!”

“Miriam knowns evertything there is to know about prophecy. She would be a tremendous help right now!”

“Once the storyboard is complete, we will bring her here to look at it on the big screen. Once she has seen our work, she will own the upperhand. It must appear that we own the high ground, or, she will run circles around us. Thank God, for this!” Clive put a file before Victoria made of green velvet.

“This is your Puritan ancestry we have kept from you. John von John is your kin. His real name is John Wilson Rosamond. He has revived Herbert Armstrong’s church. Call him, now. He needs to be here. We are going to fight BAD prophecy, with BAD prophecy. We are going into the Sage&Scribe business. When the storyboard is complete, you are going to Scotland to stay over night with The Poker Club.”

“The Poker Club?” Victoria chimed. Aren’t they an ancient all male club who some say rule the Western World?” Victoria got no answer.

“Why are you and Miriam sneaking about Osborne House?”

“We are looking for Victoria’s lost library.

“Interesting. In four days I want you and Miriam on a plane. You are going to Harvard to look for the lost library of Reverend John Wilson, who is your 9th. grandfather, too!” Clive watched his remark sink in.

“Are you saying John von John and I share this ancestor? Miriam hates him. Wait a minute, the Puritans and California Russians, are on the same path. Who owns America is the question.”

“They say Manhattan was purchased from the heathens for a pair of beads. The Russian Pioneer Monks married native women. They kept very good genealogical records. Look at Saint Innocent of Alaska. Miriam claimed she was a Russian Native American Princess.”

“And this is why she dresses like Sheenah, Queen of the Jungle?” added Victoria, with three calm breaths. “I wonder if Russia has a Walt Disney?”

Today, we crossed the Rubicon. There is no turning back. President Trump sent the Speaker of the House an extremely demonizing letter – with eagle seal – that invoked the name of my Puritan ancestors. Nancy tore it up.

If I were a young man, again, I would want to marry all the beautiful women in the Russian beauty contest. Paul bid members of the first church – not to marry because The End was coming, and so was Jesus. He was a no-show. Paul, latched on to our genitals, and the church has been shaking them like a Pitbull ever since in order to get our attention, and trillions in tithe.

Today, we saw Trump trying to run their Holy Blackmail scam. Remaining neutral as a non-believer, is almost impossible. The Christian-right wants to go to war with the Democrats. Republican women, should jump ship.

The abortion issue was invented by Paul Weyrich to counter the Civil Rights Movement that was opposed by Southern Baptists. Robert P. George founded the Witherspoon think tank. He says religious disobedience is required. History is about religious wars. The End Time is a tool for religious terrorists.

“President Donald Trump on Tuesday savaged House Democrats’ impeachment proceedings in a six-page letter to Speaker Nancy Pelosi that read like a collection of his most vitriolic tweets.

The fiery missive, frequently punctuated with exclamation points, came loaded with hyperbolic assertions — including the president’s claim that “more due process was afforded to those accused in the Salem Witch Trials” and his accusation that Pelosi and House Democrats “view democracy as your enemy!”

tomac so that never again will our elected leaders cower on their knees in the Sacred Chamber of The United States Senate. I turn on my T.V, to see the news about the death of a Capitol policeman. I am then hearing about the special jurisdiction of the District of Columbia has, that prevented the calling of the National Guard to come to the rescue of The People’s Choice – that most Republican’s claim were not legally elected to office. Their President LIED AGAIN saying he called the National Guard – right away – at the first sign of trouble! Why should the majority of Real American Voters have to SWALLOW ONE MORE LIE from a mortal being, who thinks he is a god. Trump – IS INSANE!

Mr. Insane wanted to send OUR Army into Portland to restore law and order. Donald Trump watched the mob violence – very carefully – looking for a good excuse to be a BIG MAN to his rabid base. He wanted them to see real troops battling rioters in the street. He wanted to hear their praise and read their CONGRADULATIONS on twitter and facebook. Trump gave the VIOLENT INSTECTIONISTS a guarantee that he would back them with the Army, the Navy, and the Marines! In hours, this MANIAC will be – IMPEACHED! This is – TREASON!

After President Joe Biden, and Vice President, Kamala Harris, are sworn in, I would like to see them give birth to THE NEW ARMY OF THE POTOMIC that was created when Republican President Abrahm Lincoln passed the Thriteenth Ammendment, and FREED me and women who were taken hostage and made slaves. The Abolitionist Repubican Party RIGHTED THE WRONG our founding Father’s made, when they did not free the slaves – NOR GIVE WOMEN – the right to vote. Our FLAWED Constitution was signed by men who debated about freeing the slaves. Did they consider giving the vote to half of our young Nation?

I declare the republican Party – DEAD! Let the remnants of this party co-founded by my kindred, John Fremont be born this day in the District of Columbia. Let the citizen who live in this district be allowed TO VOTE so that they can own the power to come to the aid of ALL citizens who come under attack. Donald Trump invited people to the DC to commit acts of violent insurrection. If the citizens of DC knew the sacred building in their district would be left UNGUARDED, they might have marched to this Symbol of Freedom – and surrounded it!

I see the New Army of the Pontomac holding an anuel parade down Pennsylvania. I presented the video of the Native Americans in Chile doing the goosetep to Prussian band music. I told the startled members of this Black Panther group, that no black American should be denied access to any empowerment any white man enjoys anywhere in this world. To quote President Biden…

“Enough is enough!”

Let’s have the parade that King Donald wanted – only for himself! Let us hold a annual parade of the People’s Army – FOR ALL THE PEOPLE!

Freedom!

District of Columbia home rule is District of Columbia residents’ ability to govern their local affairs. As the federal capital, the Constitution grants the United States Congress exclusive jurisdiction over the District in “all cases whatsoever”.

At certain times, and presently since 1973, Congress has allowed certain powers of government to be carried out by locally elected officials. However, Congress maintains the power to overturn local laws and exercises greater oversight of the city than exists for any U.S. state. Furthermore, the District’s elected government exists at the pleasure of Congress and could theoretically be revoked at any time.

A separate yet related controversy is the District’s lack of voting representation in Congress. The city’s unique status creates a situation where D.C. residents do not have full control over their local government nor do they have voting representation in the body that has full control.

In 2015, D.C. became a member of the Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization.[1]

Radical Democracy Party

Posted on July 16, 2020by Royal Rosamond Press

I belong to a Black Panther group, and in response to a gentleman who said no white man would put down the KKK, I googled the Radical Republicans who specifically targeted the KKK, as did President Grant. Then I found the missing link I have been looking for for twelve years, or more. My kin, John Fremont, became a second Presidential Candidate when the Radical Democracy Party was formed – with the sole purpose of getting Lincoln to drop out of the race!

WHAT!?

The Radical Republicans hated Lincoln who betrayed their ideals on all men being free. Many of these Radicals were Turners, members of the German Turnverein. immigrants who fled to America after they lost their Revolution in Europe. Three of my grandfathers appear to have been Turners. It also looks like the New York Turner Rifles – were sabotaged! They were given smooth bore rifles and allegedly rifled rifles “later on”. I don’t buy it! They were ordered into open fields where they had an extreme disadvantage, The Traitors were able to shoot them at twice the range. Cannon fire waited for them in one field, and they are described as cowards – who ran! They were arrested for not following orders. Their service was up and they were due back in New York – for the elections. Montgomery Blair claims he lost to “foreigners”. How many others would lost thanks to the Germans?

I believe the Blair family set the Turner Rifles up for failure – so other Turners all over America would not join the War Against Slavery. Fremont was the first Presidential Candidate for the Republican, and lost. I have read articles that said Lincoln did not want to defeat the Confederacy. He believed they would come back into the Union if a show of force occurred. However, because the Radicals cited the Monroe Act, I suspect the Blairs and Lincoln were waiting for the French and British to enter the war on the side of the Confederacy. He would surrender, and the Turners would be destroyed – along with Fremont!

The Speaker of the House has a suspicion Trump will not leave office if her loses. He has stabbed Vindman in the back. I believe neo-Confederates put Trump in office. I would like to see the formation of the New Turner Rifles that will be located in Oakland California and St. Louis. Sone have suggested statues of Lincoln should be hauled down.

Many of the new party’s supporters did not necessarily want it to stand in the election. Rather, the hope was that the formation of a new party would cause Lincoln not to gain the Republican nomination.[10] Although this did not occur, Frémont maintained over the course of his campaign that he would drop out if Lincoln did likewise, in favor of a candidate whose platform more closely matched the ideals of the Radical Republicans.[11]

Frémont gained the support of a number of prominent abolitionists. However, the majority of Radical Republicans continued to support Lincoln as it was felt that Frémont could not win and that supporting him would split the abolitionist vote in favor of the Democrat candidate George McClellan.[12] Additionally, many were less than enthusiastic about the party platform with its compromises aiming to attract Democrats.[13] Frémont continued these overtures during his campaign.[14] As the campaign failed to gain momentum, many abolitionists urged Frémont to withdraw his nomination. No major newspaper supported Frémont.[15] However, some Democrat supporting newspapers such as the New York World did talk up Frémont’s credentials in order to disunite Republicans.[16] Confederates as well as Democrats took a close interest in Frémont’s campaign, hoping it could help McClellan win in November.[17]

Withdrawal[edit]

Frémont and Cochrane dropped out of the race on September 21, 1864. In a letter to The New York Times, Frémont wrote that it had become increasingly clear that the Democrats could not be trusted on the issues of union or abolition. As such, he did not want to act as a spoiler against Lincoln.[18] At the same time, Frémont remained critical of Lincoln, writing that “his Administration has been politically, militarily and financially, a failure, and that its necessary continuance is a cause of regret for the country”.[19] In another letter to the same paper written one week previously, but published in the same edition, he wrote that the ideas of the Radical Democracy Party would nevertheless be pursued.[20] It has been speculated that Frémont’s withdrawal may have been part of a deal with Lincoln whereby the more conservative Postmaster General Montgomery Blair was removed from his post.[21]

Most Radical Democracy Party supporters went on to support Lincoln in the general election,[22] though there were some exceptions to this, notably Wendell Philips.[23] The party itself was finished, having only formed to run a candidate in the 1864 election.

The upcoming November, 1862 Congressional elections influenced President Lincoln’s handling of military operations in the Western Theatre. Lincoln was not so much concerned with a major victory in the Trans-Mississippi Theatre as he was with avoiding the loss of political supporters for the Union Cause in the western border states like Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee. He instructed his commanders to respect the private property rights of supporters and rebels alike unless military necessity required otherwise. This admonition even extended to interfering with slavery in those states. Lincoln had ordered Gen. Fremont to revoke his proclamation of August 30, 1861 which imposed military control over the government of Missouri, authorized the confiscation of rebel private property and freed slaves owned by Confederate supporters. When Fremont attempted to stir up opposition to the President’s order, Lincoln had him removed in spite of strong pressure from the German-American community in St. Louis. Lincoln gained support for his moderate policies by telling his Abolitionist supporters about the Union company composed of Kentucky recruits that had gone home upon learning of Fremont’s proclamation.

Some military commanders including Gen. Steele took notice of the abolitionist zeal on the part of the German-American troops. In a letter to General Halleck on November 1, 1861 Steele reported that, ” The German Regiments of my command are to be kept here [Helena] until after the election –Osterhaus’ Division. They are Abolitionists and are probably to vote for Blow rather than Blair. This was told to me by an unsophisticated German officer.” Although Steele allowed state election commissioners to come into his camps to count the votes cast by his German-American units, he would not allow them to return home to vote. As expected, most of the men of the German Brigade cast their votes for Blow, the Radical Republican Congressional candidate from St. Louis. Steele professed to be unconcerned with the radical Republican views of his German-American units, but since taking command of Osterhaus’ troops, he had favored his moderate Republican and Democratic friends from Iowa with commands and promotions over the German -American officers from St. Louis. Later Blair would contest the election results claiming that many non-citizens voted in the election. 

Mr. Lincoln seemed to be equally driven by his loyalty to the Blairs and his concerns for executive privilege. After the 1864 Republican National Convention in Baltimore, Congressman Thaddeus Stevens and former Secretary of War Simon Cameron visited President Lincoln. Stevens demanded: ‘In order that we may be able in our State to go to work with a good will I want you to make us one promise…that you will reorganize your cabinet, and leave Montgomery Blair out of it.”30 The two hour meeting was tense and intense. Colonel R. M. Hoe related the President finally gave his answer, in substance as follows, towering up to his full height, and delivering his words with emphatic gestures, and intense earnestness of speech:

“Mr. Stevens, I am sorry to be compelled to deny your request to make such a promise. If I were even myself inclined to make it, I have no right to do so. What right have I to promise you to remove Mr. Blair, and not make a similar promise to any other gentleman of influence to removed any other member of my cabinet whom he does not happen to like? The Republican party, wisely or unwisely had made me their nominee for President, without asking any such pledge at my hands. Is it proper that you should demand it, representing only a portion of that great party? Has it come to this that the voters of this country are asked to elect a man to be President – to be the Executive – to administer the government, and yet that this man is to have no will or discretion of his own. Am I to be the mere puppet of power – to have my constitutional advisers selected for me beforehand, to my manhood to consent to any such bargain – I was about to say it is equally degrading to your manhood to ask it.”

Historian Allan Nevins wrote: “The Radicals who hated Montgomery Blair were quite as numerous as the Moderates who hated Chase, and their detestation was quite as fervent. The judicious [William P.] Fessenden had fairly well represented the idea of party harmony. Could Lincoln find a replacement for Blair who would equally typify restraint and unity? The President felt liking and respect for Blair, just as he felt respect (though not liking) for Chase, but he did not approve the man’s quarrelsome and malignant streak. Once when Blair was denouncing the Radicals as selfish and vindictive, Lincoln rebuked him. ‘It is much better not to be led from the region of reason into that of hot blood, by imputing to public men motives which they do not avow.’”31

In the spring of 1864 a fringe group of radical abolitionists nominated General John C. Frémont as their candidate for President. Although Frémont and supporters did not campaign actively, they threatened to siphon votes from the Republican-Union tickets. Historian Allan Nevins noted that by the summer, “Montgomery was now disliked in every quarter. He had been barred from the Union League; a radical committee including George S. Boutwell and John Covode had lately demanded his dismissal; Henry Wilson wrote Lincoln that his retention would cost tens of thousands of votes. Men spoke of the Blairs as ‘a nest of Maryland serpents.’ On September 22nd, [Zachariah] Chandler, accompanied by David H. Jerome, later governor of Michigan, had a private interview with Lincoln. He announced the complete success of his labors; he had gotten Fremont out of the race, though not by the means he had expected.”32 Frémont had dropped out without conditions; the conditions were imposed by the Radical Republicans like Michigan Senator Chandler with whom he was negotiating.

Although there appears to have been no quid pro quo on Frémont’s part that he would drop out of the race if Montgomery Blair dropped out of the cabinet, it was clearly the goal of Chandler that Blair must go if Frémont quit. According to biographer Benjamin Thomas, the evidence suggest that Chandler “obtained Lincoln’s assent to such a bargain; for in a letter to his wife he wrote: “The President was most reluctant to come to terms but came.” Chandler’s subsequent negotiations with Frémont have never been completely clarified, but Frémont apparently would have no part of the bargain. On September 22 he renounced his candidacy, however, and Lincoln accepted Blair’s resignation the next day.” Blair told Navy Secretary Gideon Welles and Attorney General Edward Bates as they were leaving the President’s office: “I suppose you are both aware that my head is decapitated – that I am no longer a member of the Cabinet.’”33

The influence of Blair’s critics was considerable. Criticism of Blair escalated in the autumn of 1863 after Blair made a speech in which he damned Radical Republicans. Journalist Noah Brooks wrote: “The speech, which was an elaborate defense of the alleged conservative policy of the President, was also a bitter arraignment of prominent members of the Cabinet, Senators, and Representatives. The speech was subsequently issued in pamphlet form and created considerable stir in Washington, and among the President’s real friends in Maryland
