A Playbook for Insurrection from a good ole country boy
Guest post from John L. Kachelman, Jr.
Another “win” for President Trump was announced: “A federal judge on Monday lifted an order preventing the Trump administration from rescinding Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for thousands of Afghans and Cameroonians in the United States.”
Consider ancient history’s lessons on today’s situation.
The impact of alien migrants in the fall of the Roman Empire is an interesting topic with frightening parallels.
In fact, students of history will recall that the collapse of historic world Empires came from “within” due to a number of factors. The fall of the (western) Roman Empire is marked by the impact of migrants allowed to enter. Entry came by slavery, employment, invitation, allowances to provide security, and marriage.
The initial Roman policies towards migration were commendable. The Romans were “inclusive.” They were open to receiving immigrants under specific conditions. These were immediately integrated into Roman society. Immigrants were welcomed, but only under certain conditions. And those legally integrated into the Roman nation eagerly threw away their old customs, dress, language and behavior so they would become “true” Romans. A strict policy governed the migrant— he had to adhere to the State’s Laws, be disarmed of any weapons, and expected to adopt Roman culture and Law. They were intolerant regarding “diversity” in culture, behavior and laws that were not rooted in Rome’s history.
However, a troubling fact is observed as in the middle of the fourth century AD. There were harsh conditions outside of the Roman Empire’s borders. These harsh conditions increased the number of migrants seeking entry into the Empire’s borders.
During the late Empire’s history, a drastic change developed toward migrants. The Barbarian invasion posed a perilous threat (the Battle of Teutoburg Forest where Arminius led Germanic tribesmen to defeat three Roman Legions!).
In its later years the Roman Empire lost control, its security resources were strained, and its borders were “open.” Economic instability, internal conflicts, and a weakening military added to the Empire’s weakened position.
Eventually, the migrants established their own policies, governing and authority that not only vied with the Roman Law but ignored and replaced Roman Law.
Ultimately the Empire was overcome. The western Roman Empire’s ability to resist the migrations and other internal pressures were so compromised that by 476 AD, the western Roman Empire had basically ceased to exist as a unified entity. Many of its territories were governed by newly established Germanic migrant kingdoms.
Consider today’s situation in the United States of America.
We must not forget that we are indeed a nation of immigrants. BUT DO NOT FORGET this nation of immigrants became great because there was the desire to become integrated and submissive to the Constitutional Laws, there was an eagerness to defend our Republic, and a fervent desire to be a part of the “melting pot” where previous cultures, dress, laws, languages, etc., were replaced by allegiance to our Republic and its governing Constitutional Law.
Today there is a disheartening reality…no longer is the migrant willing to be assimilated into the “melting pot.” No longer are conflicting cultures being abandoned. Now we are being told that “diversity” is strength—an absurd concept that only fuels division and thus weakness.
The illegal migrants have reached levels threatening our national security, and inevitably our national survival.
This is not fearmongering but historical fact. The absurdity of amnesty for the illegals is foolishness. This was attempted in 1986 with the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA). This amnesty did nothing to correct the problem. This amnesty encouraged even more the flow of illegal aliens. It convinced millions to see hope for eventual legal status if only they could get inside our nation. We ask the amnesty voices today, “How well did this amnesty work? How many more illegals are in our nation now than in 1986?”
Advocates for “open borders” use emotionally charged lies to further their cause. We are being told that both sides benefit from the employment of the illegal immigrants. This is a re-run of Rome’s advocacy claiming there was benefit to allowing the barbarians to enter the workforce.
The idea of a “better life” is not a modern dream. The barbarians entered the Roman Empire seeking better lives. The Romans thought their economy would benefit from having Barbarians in the service sectors. Today, we are being told that the illegals are doing jobs that Americans will not do and that our economy would suffer without low-cost labor? “Who will pick our vegetables?” is the insulting mantra of the Open Border Progressive.
These observations need to be framed in the recent decision giving President Trump authorization to rescind and deport those who entered the USA via the TPS. Many cunningly played TPS in order to enter the USA. Even though it is “Temporary” they see it as an invitation for permanency—and they have no intention on returning to their countries.
The TPS has allowed hundreds of thousands of Somalis, Sudanese, Ukrainians, and other nationalities to walk in, receive State stipends, healthcare, employment, food and free lodging.
From Ukraine have come convicted felons. From Central America have come ruthless gangs. From Asia have come devotees to Mao intent on subverting the USA. And the list goes on and on. None were vetted. None were investigated to make sure they qualified under the TPS guidelines. These were just “waved through”!
We have foreigners that have been given a CDL. They cannot speak English. Those coming from Ukraine were given a CDL after passing the test in Russian. We have migrants working for trucking firms, food processing plants, and many other sectors. These are “illegally” employed but it seems few are concerned.
And they are not returning—their concept of “temporary” is not defined by the American English definition because they do not speak American English!
The TPS is broken. It needs to be fixed. How to accomplish this is difficult but not impossible. Immediately rescind ALL TPS and VISAS. Let those impacted apply once again but let it be with an interview system that fully vets each applicant. Those with CDLs need to qualify as “proficient in English.” Employers of those with an unqualified CDL, who are not qualified with the English proficiency testing need to face severe penalties for their criminal actions.
President Trump and his Administration are trying to correct the trajectory of our nation’s future that is bringing Rome’s erasure. They need to be encouraged and supported. We must understand that any opposition voiced against deporting illegals is advocacy seeking to destroy our nation’s foundations.
We are at a crisis point. There is a clear and present danger threatening our nation. Rescind and immediately deport ALL TPS and VISA approvals and let each reapply and be legally validated as a suitable applicant in the program. The programs are broke—either correct or terminate these programs to assure the security and safety of our nation.
I read this quote and think it is on-target:
“The presence of millions of people who have no regard for our culture, who speak little English, and whose loyalties lie elsewhere is not a recipe for a healthy country. The prospect of taking action to legalize millions of immigrants and attract tens of millions more illegal aliens is a recipe for national suicide.”
Let us not forget the overarching Sovereign authority (The Bible) that announces: “There shall be only one standard for you; it shall be for the alien (stranger) as well as the native.” And then this somber warning: “The (alien) stranger who is among you will rise above you higher and higher, and you will go down lower and lower.”
“An empire toppled by its enemies can rise again, but one which crumbles from within, is dead forever”
Joseph Stalin. *
Stefan Molyneux: “Diversity plus proximity equals conflict.”
Sam Francis: “You cannot separate a culture from the genetic endowments of its founding people; nor can you transfer it to another people.”
Al;exander Solzhenitsyn: “The nations are the wealth of mankind, each with their own divine facets.”
Diverity OF NATIONS, not within nations. The term “diverse nation” is an oxymoron.
Cicero said it best 2,000 years ago: A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. Marcus Tullius Cicero
I agree with Cicero, or “Chickpea” as his name indicates. But how many of us who are already within the gates, born within the gates, nationalized within the gates are, in fact, traitors? I imagine the percentage of native-grown traitors is much higher.
Read up on the final days of the Roman Empire. The rot is observable. Gibbon blames the fall on Christianity.
At the time Cicero wrote, there were plenty of people in the city and empire who were not native borns, but Arabs, Greeks, Hebrews, Scythians, Spaniards and others, and slaves captured from the empires far- flung territories. I’ve not heard of them undermining anything, though I am sure there were some.
The quality of Roman art, already degraded by the time of the late empire, shows us that the culture had run its course. Nothing more original. The Huns and Vandals and Visigoths who came later merely pushed over what was already spent and rotting.
E pluralism number. “Of many, one.” Not “of one, many”
E plurabus unim. Dang spell correct

The author makes a big mistake in being politically correct. Our country was not created by immigrants from around the world. It was created by Europeans, mainly, with the help of native people, blacks, and there must always have been some Mexican involvement. But it was not created by this mass diversity of people from all over the world. I lived in the Bay Area for decades, where international immigration has taken the lead in recent decades. While you can meet great people in every group, they continue to be very ethnocentric and largely self-segregating. The truth is these foreigners don’t much like us. This is because they are not culturally similar. I would separate the Ukrainians from the groups you mention. They are European. I have met many and they integrate and make great Americans. They are never going to run a race war against white Americans, nor legislate from the bench to bring in DEI and communism, as we see from all the foreigners who have managed to enter positions of authority on the left. We need to be able to make distinctions between European and non-Western immigrants. Sorry. Close the door to the non-Western world. Our country will not long stand with this much diversity.
Freedom to destroy freedom or freedom to preserve freedom… where
Do you stand

The Roman Empire was destroyed by the international hate what they have created around themselves . The US Empire is on the same road .
History FORGOTTEN AND BURIED is the fact that white Israelites dispersed by God from Assyrian captivity formed Western European countries. These white Israelites adopted Christianity in mass by God’s implant Hebrews 8:8-10. They emigrated to America and formed a new country prophesied and established and blessed by YHWH because they loved YHWH by OBEYING HIS LAWS AND COMMANDMENTS! His Word is confirmed in Deut 7:6 and the non-white heathen cultures are forced into America to destroy us by the Edomites (Jews) now in control…
Indisputable facts…
