Can you believe it’s February already? You know what that means. Valentine’s Day is in two weeks. Guys, if you don’t get her something she’ll make your life miserable for weeks. Don’t forget. BTW, who’s idea was it to make Valentine’s Day February 14? I mean there’s just 51 days between playing big spender Santa, and shower her with gifts Valentine!
So who was this St. Valentine, anyway? He was a third century Roman Bishop who got his head sliced off (OUCH) for marrying lovers against the decree the emperor. Claudius II thought men made better soldiers if they were unmarried. There were no veteran’s benefits back then and he thought soldiers going into battle might hold back because they were worried about what would happen to their wives and children if they were killed. Valentine disagreed with his emperor and lost his life because of it. Well, what did he think would happen when the emperor found out?
Well, enough of the lighter side. Now to more serious things. Many of you may have heard of the trucker’s convoy in Canada protesting mandatory vaccinations. Something like 50,000 people and over 1,000 trucks have converged on the capital city of Ottowa. Prime Minister Trudeau has literally gone into hiding He claims he’s tested positive for COVID and he is working remotely, even though he’s vaccinated and feels fine. I guess it’s just a coincidence that this happened as the truckers are occupying the city. Despite sub-zero temperatures, they have vowed to stay until he returns. Trudeau laughingly referred to them as a “fringe minority”. The little Socialist dictator is running scared. BTW, that wasn’t just name calling. He is an admitted Socialist.
With the Canadians as inspiration, American truckers are planning a similar event in Washington DC. Most of the convoy will start in California and head towards Washington with more trucks joining along the way. So far, more truckers than in Canada have signed up for the American run. I think it’s going to take place next week. I wish them the best of luck. Let’s see if Biden pulls a disappearing act like Trudeau. Maybe we should take bets.
Next I want to tell you that we are almost ready to start selling merchandise. Items will include flags, armbands, coffee mugs with the ANP seal, hats, and t shirts. That’s just for starters. We have found a supplier, and all that’s left to do is basically decide exactly what we want from them, what sizes (where applicable), what their minimum order is, and how much they will charge us. Unfortunately we still have no electronic means of payment. Every American platform has rejected us because we are a “hate” group. Currently we are waiting for GAB.com to get their platform up and running. I understand that they are currently in the process of doing beta testing. I don’t know how long beta testing takes, but when they are satisfied that it works properly, we’ll sign up, and you can pay for merchandise and your monthly dues that way. Patience is a virtue.
Finally, something I wish didn’t have to be done. I wrote about this in the December issue of The White Worker, and I’m going to mention it again here, because the time has come. I warned that in January or February I would be going through our list of members and supporters, and dropping those we haven’t heard from in three months. Those who pay their dues several months in advance are exempt. This is only for those who are behind. It’s simply not fair to those who are current on their dues to give those who are not a free ride. If you’re behind, you need to contact us immediately. I mean like in a day or two. I’m going to go through the list and pick out those who are three or more months behind. I’ll send those names along with how many months behind each person is to Chairman Hess. He’ll look them over and then tell me which ones to drop and which we’ll give a little more time. If you are having financial problems and can’t afford to pay, all you have to do is send me an email letting me know that you’re still interested, but are having financial difficulties at this time. You don’t even have to give us any detailed explanations. We’ll respect your privacy. Just send us an email letting us know that you’re having difficulties and how long you think it will be before you can start sending in dues again. That’s all it will take to keep your name on the list. All we really want to know is if you are still out there and still interested. I’m going to start doing this today or tomorrow, but I probably won’t send the “drop list” to Chairman Hess until this weekend or next week. You still have time, but I wouldn’t wait to contact me if you’re still interested.
That’s about it for this report. For those of you who are out there doing activism work, thank you and keep it up! Stay warm and safe. Hail Victory!
