Please, Sweet Merciful Jesus, send us a holy and manful Monarch like King St. Louis IX. PLEASE. Because we have now learned the hard lesson
that DEMOCRACY DOESN’T WORK.
Ann Barnhardt

Slowly, slowly, I think more and more people are coming to the sick realization that “democracy” is and ever was a ticking time bomb built for the inside-out destruction of Christian Civilization. I think people are finally starting to sit down and think in stillness about the inner cities utterly devoid of any morality, about the SJW youth and their middle-aged and Boomer indoctrinators who are completely detached from reality, and at the luciferianism of the political class and realizing that “democracy” did this. And even more chillingly, that democracy can never, ever be the way out of this, and should never be returned to, because to return to it would be the proverbial dog returning to its vomit.

As Americans it is REALLY hard to come to grips with it, much less say it out loud. But, as Nurse Claire’s motto says, “Take your red pill, or you’ll get it by suppository.” Well, the Post-Christian West has its pants around its ankles, and Nurse Ratchet just walked into the room.

As readers of this space know, I think that barring supernatural intervention, we are going to have to reset to Monarchy, several Monarchies, in fact, because it is clearly unwise for one secular monarch to have control of so much landmass, resources and population as North America has. Further, as I have stated before, I am a fan of the ELECTED MONARCH model because I still believe in meritocracy, and have seen far too many examples in all walks of life of the eldest son  being a complete and total dipshit to ever trust such a model. So, let’s have a bunch of small republics following the Venetian model with an elected monarch. The Venetian Republic was founded in ARSH 697 and lasted exactly 1100 years until ARSH 1797. It’s absolutely astounding considering that Venice is a city built in the middle of a lagoon on top of a few million tree trunks pile-drived into the mud.

Another huge point in favor of elected monarchy is the fact that God Almighty Himself incarnated and established the government of His Holy Church on earth SPECIFICALLY AND IMMUTABLY as an ELECTED MONARCHY, and that has lasted coming up on 2000 years now, the present vacancy of the Holy See these 603 days and counting notwithstanding.

So, please, for your own sanity, let go of the “VOTE HAAAARDERRRR!” mindset and get serious about what we’re going to do after this War of Disassociation. It is, in fact, our MORAL DUTY AND OBLIGATION to have a plan BEFORE the hot war begins. The rules of Just War and common sense demand that the counter-revolting side (that is the side that is turning back TOWARDS God, which is us) have a plan for governance such that there is ZERO anarchical power vacuum, because if you think this shit is bad, you cannot fathom in your darkest nightmares what will happen if we get into a genuine full-blown WROL (Without Rule of Law) total anarchy situation. And again, we MUST come to grips with the fact that we can’t just “reboot” the American Constitution, because we will end up EXACTLY in the same mess again, except the second iteration will be faster and worse in every way.

DEMOCRACY. DOES. NOT. WORK.

Monarchy CAN work. As the Old Timer who taught me the cattle business explained as I sat in his living room over Labor Day weekend of ARSH 2004, which made my converting brain realize that the Papacy was not only legit, but indispensable:

SOMEONE – some ONE – has GOT TO BE IN CHARGE.

And not just a meaningless figurehead. Some ONE has to be genuinely in charge, personally responsible, and personally accountable. None of this rule-by-committee (aka “synod”) bullshit.

I have to chuckle at all of these Trad Inc. and academic egghead people today running around decrying the Papacy as a disastrous system in se that has to be “demythologized” and evanesced into meaningless because “Fwanciss is definitely totally Pope!” Show me a man (or harpy) making this argument and I’ll show you someone who has never run a business and/or served in the military. And no, being a CIA spook doesn’t count as military service.

On the secular side, I think people are cottoning to the fact that the system is set up precisely so that NO ONE IS ACCOUNTABLE. Even if Biden were the President, and didn’t have late-stage dementia, nevermind Harris who is mildly intellectually disabled and a staggering alcoholic, the system is set up such that the Executive Branch can point the finger at the other two branches, and round and round she goes. Biden’s dementia just underscores the point. You can’t deny it now. The man in this system of governance with the most putative personal power, responsibility and accountability shits his pants on the regular and struggles to walk and speak. This folks, is merely the two-by-four to the head of reality demanding that we shed our American indoctrination and acknowledge it.

Now, on his Feast Day, let’s ponder good King St. Louis IX of France, and pray that IF supernatural intervention is NOT what the Divine Providence has in mind, and we need to work this out, that we find a King, a Doge, a Grand Duke, an Archduke – I think Emperor has too much negative baggage (cough, Star Wars, cough), and shouldn’t be used – whatever. And several of them, because this business of the mega-states is just no damn good, as history clearly bears out. The only earthly monarch who should have massive jurisdiction, and in fact, he still does, if we ever get one again, is the Pope. The Pope is the monarch of monarchs. The Pope has plenary jurisdiction over the entire physical universe. But remember, the Pope is also The Servant of servants.

King St. Louis IX, pray for us, and for the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church in terrifyingly visible eclipse, and for the Petrine See, vacant these 603 days.

Mary, Queen of Heaven, pray for us.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us.

“Fair son, the first thing I would teach thee is to set thine heart to love God; for unless he love God none can be saved. Keep thyself from doing aught that is displeasing to God, that is to say, from mortal sin. Contrariwise thou shouldst suffer every manner of torment rather than commit a mortal sin.

“If God send thee adversity, receive it in patience and give thanks to our Saviour and bethink thee that thou hast deserved it, and that He will make it turn to thine advantage. If He send thee prosperity, then thank Him humbly, so that thou becomest not worse from pride or any other cause, when thou oughtest to be better. For we should not fight against God with his own gifts.”

“I advise you that you accustom yourself to frequent confession, and that you choose always, as your confessors, men who are upright and sufficiently learned, and who can teach you what you should do and what you should avoid.”

“Love all good, and hate all evil, in whomsoever it may be.”

The instructions which St Louis gave to the heir of his crown and which, he had constantly observed himself, testify to his great devotion and holiness. These were the last admonitions of the Holy King:

-Love God, the Almighty, above all else.

-Flee sin more quickly than you would a serpent.

-Become not fainthearted in adversity.

-Become not elevated in the days of prosperity.

-Show the wounds of your soul frequently, to your spiritual physician and refuse no remedies, however bitter, to heal them.

-Pray diligently.

-Be compassionate and generous to the poor.

-If your mind is harassed with doubt, consult a devout man.

–Keep faithful and pious counsellors around you and dismiss those who are wicked.

-All that is good hold fast: all that is bad discard.

-Lend a willing ear to those who speak of God.

-Listen not to calumniators and slanderers.

-So long as you reign, leave not unpunished those who blaspheme God and the Saints.

-First be grateful to God, then to men.

-Love and protect justice and neither neglect nor despise, the complaints of the needy.

-In your own affairs, when they are not perfectly clear, speak and act against yourself.

-Refund immediately the possessions of others.

-Protect the clergy.

-Love and honour your parents.

-If you are obliged to war against Christians, spare the Churches and the Convents.

-Endeavour to terminate all contentions with kindness.

-Guard all your officials with a watchful eye.

-Ever show due reverence to the Pope.

-Overstep not the bounds of moderation in your expenses.

-When I have departed, let prayers and Masses be said for the repose of my soul.

FAITH OF THE COUNT OF MONTFORT—ONE MUST NOT ENTER INTO CONTROVERSY WITH JEWS

The sainted king told me that several people among the Albigenses came to the Count of Montfort, who was then guarding the land of the Albigenses for the king, and asked him to come and look at the body of our Lord, which had become blood and flesh in the hands of the priest. And the Count of Montfort said, “Go and look at it yourselves, you who do not believe it. As for me, I believe it firmly, holding as holy Church teaches of the sacrament of the altar. And do you know what I shall gain,” said the count, “in that during this mortal life I have believed as holy Church teaches? I shall have a crown in the heavens, above the angels, for the angels cannot but believe, inasmuch as they see God face to face.”

He told me that there was once a great disputation between clergy and Jews at the monastery of Cluny. And there was at Cluny a poor knight to whom the abbot gave bread at that place for the love of God; and this knight asked the abbot to suffer him to speak the first words, and they suffered him, not without doubt. So he rose, and leant upon his crutch, and asked that they should bring to him the greatest clerk and most learned master among the Jews; and they did so. Then he asked the Jew a question, which was this: “Master,” said the knight, “I ask you if you believe that the Virgin Mary, who bore God in her body and in her arms, was a virgin mother, and is the mother of God?” And the Jew replied that of all this he believed nothing. Then the knight answered that the Jew had acted like a fool when—neither believing in her, nor loving her—he had yet entered into her monastery and house. “And verily,” said the knight, “you shall pay for it!” Whereupon he lifted his crutch and smote the Jew near the ear, and beat him to the earth. Then the Jews turned to flight, and bore away their master, sore wounded. And so ended the disputation.

The abbot came to the knight and told him he had committed a deed of very great folly. But the knight replied that the abbot had committed a deed of greater folly in gathering people together for such a disputation; for there were a great many good Christians there who, before the disputation came to an end, would have gone away misbelievers through not fully understanding the Jews.

“And I tell you,” said the king, “that no one, unless he be a very learned clerk, should dispute with them; but a layman, when he hears the Christian law mis-said, should not defend the Christian law, unless it be with his sword, and with that he should pierce the mis-sayer in the midriff, so far as the sword will enter.”

 

It is a bizarre tale.

I was born outside of Kansas City in ARSH 1976.  I dropped out of public high school after being skipped two grades because I feared for my safety and the “education” was a complete joke.  I graduated from Kansas State University in ARSH 1997 with a degree in Animal Husbandry (beef cattle production) with an emphasis in Agricultural Economics.  Again, the education wasn’t much to write home about, especially the economics which was 105% Keynesian agitprop, but it served its purpose.

After graduating I immediately moved to Denver and became a commodity broker, specializing in cattle and grain hedging – PURE hedging, as in forward contracting actual cattle and actual grain for farmers and ranchers.  I was NEVER a “money manager” or a so-called “hedge fund”.  I was a pure, old-school commercial agricultural hedge broker.  In ARSH 2004 one of my clients, a salty and brilliant old-timer, trained me in the art of cash cattle marketing and cash market arbitrage, and I began teaching cattlemen this lost skillset.  This was my most important professional achievement.  I am a good teacher, and I loved teaching, and I especially loved being able to teach such good people as there are in the North American cattle industry.

In ARSH 2006 I opened my own Independent Introducing Brokerage, which consisted of just me – a one-man shop.  It became very successful very quickly.  I considered hiring other brokers and expanding, but never did.  Thank God.

After years of reading and research, trying earnestly to disprove or discredit it, and despite the fact that the Kennedy family is Roman Catholic, I was received into the One Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church on April 7, ARSH 2007.  As this was before Summorum Pontificum, I was unaware of the Latin Mass parish in Denver, and thus entered the Church in a Novus Ordo parish, through the “RCIA” program.  Novus Ordo Masses, while illicit, are indeed (mostly) valid, and Our Lord is physically present therein.  I know this for a metaphysical certitude.  I am NOT a sedevacantist.  It is precisely because the Novus Ordo Masses are valid that the sacrilege built into the Rite by Bugnini and the other infiltrators matters, and why the Novus Ordo Rite MUST be exterminated as quickly as possible.  There will be no civilizational recovery so long as the Novus Ordo remains.

On April 3, ARSH 2011, after seeing Sen. Lindsey Graham advocate for Sharia Law and the punishing of American citizens who “disrespected” the islamic political system and its manifesto, the koran, I rebutted Graham’s remarks and then burned a koran – bookmarked with raw bacon – and concluded by announcing my address and inviting all musloid and/or FEDGOV comers to come and get a piece of me.

My actions were … appreciated.  The two videos went viral instantly and have been mirrored countless times.  A translation and subtitling project was begun, and the videos were translated into at least ten languages.  The Arabic version was done by Egyptian Copts, some of whom may already be martyrs, and is the most-viewed version with over 650,000 views, most of which were in Egypt.  My Arabic-subtitled koran burning video stood instantly as proof of the lie of the 9/11/12 Benghazi attack motivation, as my video had hundreds of thousands more views in North Africa than the video that was lyingly blamed as the motivation.

Despite going uber-viral and giving my address, I was never contacted by either the mainstream media or law enforcement, excepting my local police department, who called and visited, offering their support and compliments.  The media wants to portray any anti-musloid speech as the domain of ignorant rednecks – hence the breathless coverage of Terry Jones.  Intelligent, eloquent, moderately attractive people – much less a person acting with manful courage in the face of evil – will never be covered.  The lack of contact by the FBI and other FEDGOV entities, in direct contrast to the Molly Norris situation, indicates that the FEDGOV only reacts when the reaction can be used to engender fear and intimidation in the populace.  “Look!  This girl floated an idea about drawing cartoons of mohammed and we had to put her in the witness relocation program!!!  Ooooh!  Be SCARED!  Fear your musloid masters!”

Six months later, after having my reading audience skyrocket, I sounded the warning on commodity futures clearing house MF Global and publicly recommended that all MF Global clients get their money out on October 26th ARSH 2011, citing a parabolic increase in their bond yields and hearing anecdotal evidence of wire transfers and checks coming out of MF Global bouncing.  I never imagined that what happened next could happen.  I watched as it came to light that Jon Corzine had swept the MF Global customer accounts, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange cooperated in the theft and refused to fulfill its fiduciary duty and existential purpose and backstop the company, despite having over $8 billion in their emergency slush fund, which could have backstopped Corzine’s $1.6 billion theft multiple times over.  Even more unthinkable was the CME’s freezing of the MF Global victims’ accounts, refusing to even allow them to liquidate their positions – WHILE THE MARKETS CONTINUED TO TRADE FOR OVER A WEEK.

This made it perfectly clear that the financial markets as we had known them no longer existed.  The Rule of Law was dead.  There was no recourse or way to protect of defend oneself or one’s clients from the brazen theft of the oligarchs.  Contracts were worth less than the paper they were printed on.  This was no longer a nation of laws, but a nation of men.  On November 15th and 16th ARSH 2011, I contacted and systematically liquidated every account on my books.  I could have sold my customer book to another broker for a small fortune, and this is the general “retirement plan” for commodity brokers.  I could not do that.  I could not simply throw my clients to the wolves while I lined my pockets and snuck out the back door.  My priority was keeping them safe and making certain that what happened to the MF Global customers did NOT happen to my customers.

On November 17, ARSH 2011 I posted my “Going Galt” letter announcing publicly the closure of Barnhardt Capital Management.  It was picked up and reposted in full by ZeroHedge.com within a matter of minutes, and quickly went on to be the 6th most-viewed story on ZeroHedge for 2011.  Within 90 minutes, Rush Limbaugh was reading excerpts of my letter on the air.  The next morning, Glenn Beck dedicated an entire segment to it on his radio program.  I went uber-viral again, especially in the financial community.

Now partially “early retired”, I continued to blog on various topics and subjects.  I stopped paying federal taxes shortly thereafter and openly encourage others to likewise declare a tax strike.  The IRS swept my normally drawn-down bank account on October 27, ARSH 2012 after having a settlement wire from a real estate sale catch their attention.  Unable to provide a tax return for “bank compliance”, my mortgage was foreclosed upon on December 28, ARSH 2012.  Resolved and resigned to the fact that it was impossible for me to function in the now-overthrown United States of America, I commenced a total estate liquidation and vacated my home in the spring of ARSH 2013.

I will continue to educate and sound the warning via this website for as long as possible.  I am living off of the dwindling remains of my estate liquidation.  Being 38 years old, I will obviously need to find some way to earn money so that I can live.  I aspire to janitorial work, but keep being told at every turn that I am overqualified, not meant for janitorial work and should be using my intellect to earn a living.  Sadly, people of intellect and morality are disqualified and even attacked when society is under the control of a tyranny backed by the mob.  Don’t ask where all of the smart people are.  Don’t ask where all of the leaders of men are.  We are sitting in the back, watching in silence, because the mob wants to be ruled by psychopaths and imbeciles.  So long as that is the case, we cannot help you, even if we wanted to.

Despite all of this, I am happier than I have ever been in my life, and would change nothing.  If none of these things had happened, if I was still sitting on a vast wealth and tremendous business success, I wouldn’t be where I am today, and that is a truly intolerable thought.  While it felt awful at the time, I now see and understand that it was all necessary to get me to where I am now.  In the second chapter of the book of Joel, God promises to give back to us the years that are taken from us by “the locusts”.  He will, and He does.  Hang in there.

And so I sit, and watch, and pray, trusting in God and His Mercy, imploring Him to make me His good girl, and to let me do some little bit of good, and never to be a burden on anyone.

“This is the Lord’s doing: and it is wonderful in our eyes.” -Psalm 117:23
