OK, one last very quick thought as election results loom in the US.
A few weeks ago in my newsletter, The CE Insight, I said I wanted to make a video talking about a big mistake I thought RFK Jr made.
I didn’t make that video because I was still formulating my thoughts and so much was changing. And quite frankly, I was also pretty busy. lol
BUT… the point I was going to make was around the need for a 3rd party to emerge in the US. RFK Jr himself saw how important this was early on, but still decided to move away from the idea in the end.
In yesterday’s post, I said:
“Initially, I thought Trump was almost surely using RFK Jr, and that RFK staying independent would have been better for building an independent party long term.”
The amount of momentum behind RFK Jr before he aligned with Trump was likely enough for him to get 5% of the vote in some states, officially creating a third party in those states. This would have been the beginning of an important movement that could continue on in years to come. A movement that moves beyond the corruption of the two-party system and the Deep State lobbyists that run them.
This to me would have been a great short-term in-system solution to rally around. I believe this to be important for many reasons and it will take some time to unpack. Today, I just want to drive home the importance and framing around this idea.
To do that, I’m going to turn to Briahna Joy Gray who was recently on Glenn Greenwald’s System Update show discussing this very topic. Check out her poignant speech below.

Joe, the problem isn't the uniparty or the two party system! It's the corporitized America!!! You see the chain of command structure was inverted when the corportization of America ocurred. Before the corporation it was We The People above The Several States, which were above The Federal Government. By creating the Corporation "The United States of America" as the base corporation, The Several States became States of, or franchise corporations under "The United States of America Inc." with We The People converted to Corporate Employees of the Corporation. Removing our un-a-lien-able Rights and putting in place privlidges and immunities. In my opinion it was done without the authority nor jurisdiction to do it. The weird part is it was done with the change of one word in the Constitution. They changed the Constitution for the united States of America to the Constitution of the United States of America!!! This occurred in 1871, I'm still conducting research, I can't specifically confirm if this was due to The Organic Act of 1871 or the Treaty of Washington of 1871. Regardless it's constructive Fraud either way. Read George Washington's Farewell Address especially the section on Parties... Great post... Peace...
Hi, Joe. I live in NJ and RFK Jr. was listed on the ballot as nomination by petition. I initially went in thinking I’d vote for Trump for the same reasons you mentioned in your previous post. However, when I got into the voting booth, I selected RFK Jr. because I believed in his message and I have hope for a third party to emerge at some point. I just couldn’t vote for the same two-party system. If Trump wins, my only hope is he has truly looked at his past mistakes and will make changes as a result(as you mentioned in your previous post). So I selecting RFK Jr. as hope for the future. And thanks again for your contribution to the world. I believe it has been and will continue to be helpful in ways you probably can’t see right now😊
