(Aug. 5, 2024) — I’ve been told if I took the red pill, I would be able to see reality – the truth of what is really going on around us. Well, I just happened to have a red pill and I took it. Suddenly there was a bright light almost blinding my eyes. Then, like traveling through time, I was rushing forward, I grew dizzy, and then, as my eyes cleared and I could stand in a steady manner, everything became crystal clear!
I could see that the American people, and their every action, are being ruled, regulated, restricted, licensed, registered, directed, checked, inspected, measured, numbered, counted, rated, stamped, censured, authorized, admonished, refused, prevented, drilled, indoctrinated, monopolized, extorted, robbed, hoaxed, fined, harassed, disarmed, dishonored, fleeced, exploited, assessed, and taxed to the point of suffocation and desperation.
Then, more details started shooting out like fireworks! Policies. Politicians. Pronouncements. Power grabs. Everyday government, at all levels, is growing more out of control, more intrusive in our personal lives, more of a threat to private property – all in total and flagrant disregard of the expressed will of the electorate.
I see the politicians running for office, working to get your vote. They seek positions of power that will affect our every action. Congress, state legislature, county commission, and city council. To gain the attention of the voters, they paint powerful pictures to describe how they will make a difference, if only we give them the chance. “I will represent all the people! I will listen to you! I will be your voice! We will make progress together!” Oh, what a vision for our future, as we all will move forward together in a utopian society of peace, prosperity, and security. And so, they are chosen by the people to fulfill the promises.
How is it then possible that these candidates, talented enough to get elected, once in office, have no knowledge of some very dangerous issues they will be facing? They arrive in office, ignorant of the very roots of an agenda that now surrounds every issue and policy they must face? Worse, as they fill their terms, day in and day out, they seem to grow more unaware. In fact, when questioned by constituents about such policy decisions, they react with surprise and a lack of concern. That’s all because of a simple phrase that controls all public policy today – “That’s just the way it’s done – everyone is doing it this way.” And the thought process of those elected representatives ends.
Unnoticed by the voting public is a gang of private non-governmental organizations, almost 20,000 strong worldwide, dedicated to a powerful agenda they call a comprehensive blueprint for the reorganization of human society. And they have surrounded your elected representatives, providing sample legislation and the grant programs to pay for it.
The list of NGOs includes such powerhouses as the Nature Conservancy, Sierra Club, ICLEI, National Education Association and Planned Parenthood, to name a few. Add to those the National League of Cities, U.S. Conference of Mayors and National Association of Counties. Those are private groups your elected representatives join for guidance. And that’s why they ignore you!
What is the tactic these groups are using to impose their agenda on every government decision? Fear. That’s the weapon. Fear of what? The fear of Environmental Armageddon! This tactic has given these forces the ability to shoot down any opposition. “It doesn’t matter how many rights you think you have, if you don’t have a planet to stand on.”
Yep, they have their agenda. And they have a goal, with very specific plans to impose it. And the dirty secret they do not want you to know is that their agenda has absolutely NOTHING to do with PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT. But that scare tactic works so well!
Under the environmental scam, the NGO mob has entrenched powerful tools of destruction. They ignore facts, deny logic, attack reason and reality. And they present a false science to justify it all.
Why did they focus on the environment as the root of their agenda? Because the environment doesn’t recognize political boundaries, including national, state, county, community, and those that define your own yard. The policies we face today are not just random ideas from some misguided politicians.
The question on everyone’s mind is … can they be stopped? Can we ever restore the Republic of our Founding Fathers? First, before we can effectively fight, we must understand what this agenda is. Here’s a brief overview.
Be on the alert for one single word – Sustainable! In reality, Sustainable Development is simply a trigger word designed to get you to voluntarily surrender your liberties. Sustainable. People hear that word, and their eyes glaze over and they comply. Today it’s used everywhere, to define farming practices, energy policy, manufacturing, and on and on. If it’s not “sustainable” then it’s a danger to the environment!
Every time you hear the word SUSTAINABLE, understand that it has nothing to do with protecting the environment. To fully understand what a massive threat this is to everything in your life, the very best description of Sustainable Development was provided by one of its most powerful opponents –the late Rosa Kori said, “Sustainable Development is the action plan to inventory and control all land, all water, all minerals, all plants, all animals, all construction, all means of production, all information, all energy, and all human beings in the world. INVENTORY AND CONTROL!”

Naturally our “representatives” represent themselves. This article is OLD news. We NEVER move past the “whistle-blowing” part of the program, to the actual FIXING of the problem. We just keep blowing the whistle and treating this situation as if it’s new each time. It’s like having a plumber come tell you the sewage filling your bathroom floor is the result of a clog in the toilet. Then, instead of fixing the toilet you just deal with the crap for another year and then call the plumber again…for another diagnostic…then accepting and dealing with the sewage for ANOTHER year before repeating the process. If you never clear the clog, you’ll never drain the crap.
While I agree with the author that environmental issues are only used as an excuse to control humanity, these left-wing groups are successful because they are very, very well organized in fundraising, getting out voters (even illegally at times), working with the media, social action networks, and resistance to civil society. Even though they are a small section of society, they have effectively integrated themselves into schools, government, and the non-profit world. Karl Marx believed one person could change the world with 12 dedicated followers. These groups got the message.
The more sane side of society is absent from the debate; they have to work for a living and raise families. The more politically active on the conservative/libertarian side of the debate are too independent to cooperate with each other, let alone other groups.
Both sides of the debate get the influence they organize to achieve.
Tom, my first and only thought before I read your article, THEMSELVES. How else do they enter office technically poor and become millionaires while in office or when leaving? You bring up the same issues that many authors have written about, including the Agenda 21, etc.
I’ve always said you cannot legislate morality. I think Edmund Burke said it best,”Without morality there is no freedom”. I think he is proven correct..
