  1. Tennessee Executive Order 83:
    https://publications.tnsosfiles.com/pub/execorders/exec-orders-lee83.pdf

    Involuntary detention by State and National Guard in “health facilities”?!?

    “…or the emergency involuntary commitment of a person with a mental illness or serious emotional disturbance based upon a telephone assessment of such person by a mandatory pre-screening agent designated pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated, Sections 33-6-104 and 33-6- 427”

    Active from now until October 5th. Catherine has talked about Tennessee being a good jurisdiction generally, but it seems Governor Bill Lee is drunk with power. Even Whitmer, Cuomo, Newsom, et. al. have not dared go so far… yet.

    Looks like the “back to school” blitz will be on in full force, indeed.

    1. I have always had a nose for sussing out tyranny as someone who grew up in the NYC/New Jersey/Philadelphia area and while Tennessee definitely has more freedoms that New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania combined. I was not looking to go up a few aisles, but wanted to go for the top 10 places to live free in the States and unfortunately in my research and classification which is too lengthy to get into here, TN did not make the cut. I will give you reason number one. When it comes to homeschooling laws, TN functionaries think they have the right to be informed that you are homeschooling even if your child has NEVER been in their system. So that falls under my black and white, clear cut tyranny category. To put it in perspective, there are about 10 states where you DO NOT have to inform the state that you are about to homeschool if your child has NEVER been part of their system…and would you believe, New Jersey and Illinois are two of them? Unfortunately, New Jersey and Illinois falls short in other categories of freedom.

      One of the resources I miss is the Cato Institute’s Freedom in the 50. They stopped publishing it, but it somewhat informed my research on where to go many years ago.

      So while make no mistake DeSantis is my hero, what happens when he is gone? You see it can’t just be one guy, one governor against the world. It’s better when it’s a whole team including sheriffs, especially sheriffs and in homeschooling, yep, Florida wants you to make them aware of who your child is, even if that child has NEVER used up government school resources, were never in the system. So we say no to Florida in my household, that and raw milk is still illegal…whaaa?

      The nice thing about Tennessee is that its people are fighters, I have been there, I know some of them including YouTube icon Hickok45 whom I have followed and corresponded with years before Tucker Carlson even knew who he was. So I don’t think Tennesseeans will take matters lying down and as Catherine once said, there are more gun-owning voters in Tennessee than voters who don’t own firearms, thats huge and will make a difference.

      But yeah, even living here in my great state its getting a bit scary, but we must pray and stay positive. As Aaron Lewis says in his song, “still got my God and I still got my gun”.

      1. Hi Luis – I think many of us here would be interested in learning at least highlights / summary of your research if you are willing to share.
        I left the West Coast last summer as I thought the writing on the wall did definitely not bode well for the future. I had lived in CA growing up, and WA for most of my adult years with adventures living in a few other states such as Texas, and Maine. WA was the very best, for a very long time, but is IMO simply intolerable now. Inslee and Gates are buds, and that is just for starters. Joel Skousen’s book: Strategic Location has been a great reference. You likely know of it. Joel rates Utah, his home state highest, but there are things reported about Utah which give me pause. Lately I’ve wondered & worried about DeSantis, as he sounds inconsistent, if you follow him very closely. Will he buckle under pressure?
        Noem in SD is keeping quiet at the moment, not sure about her political aspirations, but admire SD for having smaller government and the people’s values that go with it. I’ve read it was the legislature that was actually responsible for keeping the state open, and convinced her that was the way to go. If true, that’s a plus in my book. You’re right in mentioning not to get politically attracted or attached to one person.

      2. “Freedom in the 50” sounds like a really great yearly Solari wrap-up 🙂

        As you note, there’s simply too much volatility at the political level to warrant relocation based solely on Executive fiat… here today, gone tomorrow. Even a strong history of legislative and judicial precedent can simply be steam-rolled by the pseudo-private sector at this point.

        There are these little glimmers of a still-functional system from time to time, like Michigan’s State Supreme Court basically stripping Whitmer of emergency executive powers. Or DeSantis, for all his inconsistencies, standing against lockdowns almost single-handedly.

        But at this point it seems more prudent to pick a good County or community rather than a whole State, unless you’re in California, Oregon, Washington State, or New York.

    2. Has there been feedback on this EO by TN legislators?

      Any theories on the reason for October 5th date?

    1. Hmm, interesting and unfortunate because I was employed by the 2010 Census, so there is an example of building my own prison that Catherine talks about and nobody listens.

      I wonder if that is also the reason for the 2020 Census taking that took place they started threatening people by leaving messages that they are breaking the law of they don’t answer the door? As someone who worked the 2010 Census, I was never told by my supervisors to leave notes saying “it is the law” that you answer this census, it was basically, you do the best you can, not everyone is going to want to participate.

      My my, how far we have come, but since I worked for the Census, I totally and completely ignored the threats. No one has a right to force you to hand over your personal data.

  3. https://multipolar-magazin.de/artikel/how-the-lockdown-came-to-germany

    “For a long time it was unclear how the previously unprecedented idea of a lockdown found its way into German government circles. Who recommended to the government the radical measures that are not found in any official pandemic preparedness paper? Where did the plans come from, including curfews and the shutdown of large parts of society? In the spring of this year, the former Spiegel editor-in-chief Georg Mascolo shed some light on this darkness.

    … In February 2019, a senior employee of Germany’s Health Minister, Jens Spahn, took part in an international pandemic tabletop exercise organised by privately funded US institutions. A year later, the same official recommended to several state secretaries of the Federal Ministry of the Interior to prepare lockdown measures – which were not included in any official pandemic plan. He has refused to comment on this matter. Research shows that an international biosecurity network was very active shortly before the crisis broke out.”

  4. Digital financial censorship went into full swing this month and I fear Solari will soon be in the crosshairs.

    I hope my story can serve as a cautionary tale.

    If at all possible, please try to away from PayPal. They are now teaming up with the ADL to actively ban accounts and seize money via “liquidation damages” buried in their Terms and Conditions:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/paypal/comments/owkvnw/here_is_what_to_do_when_paypal_steals_your_money/

    My own business, a small consumer electronics shop dedicated to selling privacy mobile technology, has had our money seized within the last 48 hours with seemingly no recourse aside from legal action.

    We have moved to an alternate payment processor, Stripe, but they also have a history of using payments as a political weapon against Gab. Reports from small to mid-size businesses are that Stripe is marginally better in this respect than PayPal. However, being in the US, we have scant other options for our e-commerce business.

    Cash Friday is a hugely important concept, especially for brick and mortar. But those of us who’ve made our living on the Internet are now in serious danger of losing our livelihood altogether.

    1. Joshua,

      I don’t know if this could fit your business model, but have you thought about accepting checks and money orders? You don’t send the merchandise until the check is cleared.

      Also, there is the gold and silver calculator, so like if a customer needs to pay you $100.00 USD, in junk silver that would be the face value of $5.98 or 4 – one ounce silver coins and a check for $6.48 cents.

      I know what you mean, my growing business is also internet dependent which is why I have had to fight hard to not talk or communicate anything about Covid-19.

      Now that you are using Stripe, you should be fine.

      To be clear, Paypal getting political does not surprise me. It’s not about politics here, they are just a company that has never had any integrity to begin with. They played me as well when I had my eBay business, taking money from my personal account when I had enough money in my PayPal account to cover the eBay sellers fees. That experience for me was enough to close my eBay account and not have anything to do with Paypal.

      Stay away from politics when using Stripe, you should be good. Again, Paypal is not doing this because of your politics, they always lacked integrity, they just love to take and withhold and getting involved with the ADL to do so is just an excuse for a criminal entity to do what they love to do anyway.

      I would like to make a general statement now. This is not directed at you personally Joshua, just in general.

      The masks are coming off from a lot of these corporations and many of us are still not seeing it. We have ourselves to blame as Americans. When you hold an entity next to the United States Constitution and they don’t hold up, that says a lot about them, you did not need to wait for them to “get political”.

      I will give you another example. Everyone is shocked that Virginia has become such an anti-gun blue state when it was traditionally red. Again, that’s because Americans don’t take things back to basics, to the fundamentals, the foundation of this nation. Or simply pretended not to see the friendly fascism that was already there.

      Here is an example of how I knew Virginia was a draconian state since 2005 at least. Number one, you buy a handgun and then you cannot buy a handgun again for three months. Where is that written in the United States Constitution as a thing? It isnt! In other states in the Union such as the one I live in, you can buy a gun everyday of the week if you so choose to, thats your business.

      A second example, when I lived in Virginia that year of 2005, all of a sudden I get bills in the mail saying I have to pay excise tax on my car. WTF?! I did not buy this car in Virginia, I moved to Virginia with my car, who is Virginia to tell me I have to pay a tax to use my car on their roads? Where is that written in the United States Constitution.

      But now the masks are off of all the places I always knew were tyrannical, New Jersey, North Carolina, Virginia and so on.

      Why North Carolina you say? Again, look at their laws, to homeschool in North Carolina, your child has to be vaccinated. Why?! You are going to homeschool, that is your business whether children in your home are vaccinated or not and if your child never went to government schools to begin with, why should you have to inform a bureaucrat of: A. your childrens’ existence, B. of your intent to homeschool, its not like you are pulling them out of government school, in such a case, then I understand, but if they were never part of the government school system, they have no business needing to know what you do in your home, you will not be using the monies of the school committee budget to homeschool I imagine, hence its none of their business.

      Then there’s Michigan, when I was researching that place a decade ago, it said, you can own all the guns you want as long as you register them with your local police. Again, where is that written in the United States Constitution? It isnt!

      So its not that hard to suss out who the tyrants were going to be in a SHTF situation that we currently find ourselves in, they were always there, being tyrannical 1.0, but you chose to ignore it, now its tyrannical 2.0 and its the same bad actors I always knew were tyrannical, North Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania.

      Wait, why are you now mentioning Pennsylvania and Georgia? Again, look at their homeschool laws. Any state that does not completely honor your rights as a parent is telling you how far they are prepared to go to show you who is the boss.

      You either have full freedoms as written in the U.S. Constitution and your states constitution which should reflect that or you don’t. The states that do that are few and far between unfortunately and I am just blessed I had enough intuition and did enough research to move to one of them years ago. In fact, what motivated me to make the move was that for years, I was feeling like something bad was coming to me and my family if I stayed in part of the United States I had been living in all my life. Intuition, something else we do not honor enough in this culture.

      1. Agreed wholeheartedly with your sentiment, Luis. Your commentary about PayPal having been unscrupulous for many years now is spot-on. They’ve been inherently political since at least 2016 with some of their more high-profile deplatformings. As a user for over 10 years, this is not my first time to their arbitration rodeo – just the most vicious.

        I hesitate to agree that this is simply par for the course, however – the volume of account limitation complaints on official and unofficial support channels has skyrocketed in the “Great Reset” era, even prompting a California law firm to assemble a class action lawsuit for this specific form of account hold:

        Unfortunately, our unique business of privacy-centric smartphones is deemed by TPTB as inherently “political” despite being 100% legal, and our blog and email marketing reflects that. Some of our articles on the surveillance oligarchy/Transhuman dragnet have been picked up by household names in the “off-mainstream” blogosphere, so there’s no putting the genie back in that bottle.

        As you note, we are still hoping that this is an oversight and simply part of routine KyC/AML procedures these companies must perform from time to time. But if that’s not the case and more aggressive tactics like seizure of funds are becoming normalized, I hope we can serve as an early warning to others as it is technologically very simple to replicate the censorship already present on social media platforms onto digital payment platforms.

        Your suggestions are good ones – a P.O. Box or other private mailbox to accept alternate means of payment is clearly needed. But this would represent a massive customer loss to any online business forced to conduct themselves entirely by mail, and it remains to be seen how long the Post Office can remain trusted and viable for this use-case.

        To your more general commentary, it’s clear that Transhuman Technopoly has infested all States, either through the pseudolegal system or privatized invasion.

        The asymmetric warfare tactics being used are impressively terrifying – if State governments refuse to pressure you, companies will. And if companies refuse, the States encroach upon them. It’s the public-private partnership model of Agenda 21 in full swing, and while unsurprising to Solari subscribers, the speed of the rollout is breathtaking.

        Take, for example, some of the States you’ve mentioned – Michigan is horribly corrupt on many issues, but has strong legal protections for homeschooling and forced jab mandates. California is for all intents and purposes a fallen State, but still has some of the best raw food laws in the Nation. Texas has refused to mandate jabs for healthcare workers, but hospitals and insurers in Texas are doing it for them. Even Florida is using taxpayer money to finance third-parties conducting smartphone-based contact tracing.

        We will all have to face aspects of the emergent Prison Planet regardless of physical jurisdiction, as power can now be projected through borders and beyond legislation.
