JEFF DAVIS' THRONE RETURNED
The United Daughters of the Confederacy did not have to pay the ransom of displaying a "White Lies Matter" banner on their Virginia headquarters building last week Friday because the New Orleans police recovered the chair last week Thursday near the intersection of Feliciana and North Galvez Streets.
The police said they had also arrested two people, Stanley Warnick, 32, and Kathryn Diionno, 24, and were seeking a third person, Stanley Pate, 34, who has since turned himself in to police in connection with the theft. All three face charges in New Orleans of possession of stolen property, the police said, adding that the chair was worth $500,000.
Michael Jackson, the district attorney in Dallas County, Ala., said the three would also face charges in Selma of extortion and theft.
Jackson is building his case against Diionno based on a fuzzy photograph of a tattoo.
IN THE YELLOWHAMMER STATE
Two State Senators, one black and one white, say they want a Confederate tax to promote Black history in the state.
Sen. Clyde Chambliss (white) tells The Montgomery Advertiser that he and Sen. Bobby Singleton (black) will sponsor a bill this year that will require that the state spend an equal amount to what is spent to preserve a State historical site memorializing the Confederacy on "Black history sites."
“It is imperative that we remember all of our history and learn from both the good and the bad,” said Chambliss, a Prattville Republican. “I will continue working with all that want to share my love of history, to protect, enhance and restore symbols that will help us avoid the mistakes of the past and move our state forward in a positive direction.”
Senator Singleton, a Greensboro Democrat, didn’t respond to requests for comment.
ALSO IN ALABAMA
Republican Rep. Mike Holmes of Wetumpka introduced a bill that would dramatically increase fines for violating the 2017 Memorial Preservation Act. Current law levies a flat $25,000 fine, which some cities have gladly paid as a cost of removing monuments. to other locations.
The House State Government Committee held a public hearing on the bill Wednesday that drew contentious debate. on Wednesday.
"It's a deterrent. The citizens of Alabama are upset at the damaging and destroying of these monuments," Holmes said after the meeting.
IN THE TAR HEEL STATE
SCV Camp Commander and Mechanized Cavalry leader Kevin Stone, is once again under attack. In addition to being a strong defender of Southern heritage, Dixie Heritage subscriber, and an all-around great guy, he is also a probation officer.
We reported a couple years back that there was an effort to have him fired. The claim was that as a person who is proud of his Southern ancestry that he cannot be impartial towards his non-white "clients." Or to put it more bluntly, all "Confederates" are "racists" and cannot be allowed to work for the government.
The efforts to have Kevin fired are picking up full steam. Lawyers are using his ancestry and his SCV membership against him when he testifies in court. If this attack against Kevin Stone is allowed to succeed it will create a precedent where southerners will not be allowed to work in any level of police, "law enforcement," "corrections," or for the courts.
COMMANDER JAMES KING REPORTS
On Saturday, April 3rd, The Rt.360 Charlotte Defenders Roadside Memorial Battle Flag was raised in a private ceremony attended by more than 90 people, on private property, to the glory of God, in memory of all Confederate soldiers, and in honor of all of the men of Charlotte County who fought in the War Between the States!
The Charlotte County Grays, SCV Camp #1964, will serve as Guardians of the Flags for the site.
IN THE PEACH STATE
The annual Stone Mountain memorial service scheduled for April 17th has been cancelled by the "Stone Mountain Memorial Association."
ALSO IN GEORGIA
A bronze statue of Samuel Spencer, the first president of what became the Norfolk Southern Corporation, was erected in 1910 and sits in front of the rail company’s David R. Goode building in Midtown. But its presence is on borrowed time due to Spencer’s having been a Confederate veteran.
But that’s not why the sculpture was erected. It was erected because he was the president of the railway.
Atlanta owns the statue, but Norfolk owns the private property it sits upon. When the company sold the land to Cousins Properties in 2019, Norfolk did not create a site for the statue at the company’s new headquarters.
“Once NSC leaves the Goode building, the statue’s current placement will no longer be appropriate,” according to Norfolk executive Patti Carroll in a letter to the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs.
On Monday, the Atlanta City Council is expected to vote on the statue’s relocation. Norfolk previously asked the mayor’s office for permission to relocate the statue at the company’s expense, and store the statue in a Norfolk-owned warehouse at a “significant savings to the City.”
IN THE MAGNOLIA STATE
Gov. Tate Reeves signed a proclamation declaring April as Confederate Heritage Month.
"As we honor all who lost their lives in this war, it is important for all Americans to reflect upon our nation’s past, to gain insight from our mistakes and successes, and to come to a full understanding that the lessons learned yesterday and today will carry us through tomorrow if we carefully and earnestly strive to understand and appreciate our heritage and our opportunities which lie before us," the proclamation reads.
The document also declares April 26 as Confederate Memorial Day.

Even though Lindell hasn't appeared as a guest on Fox News for months, his company is still the leading advertiser of the network's most-viewed show, "Tucker Carlson Tonight."
ALSO ON FAUX NEWS
"Transportation Secretary" Pete (my butt hurts) Buttigieg appeared on Fox News on Sunday, with anchor Chris Wallace questioning him on whether he agrees that he and Biden administration officials exaggerated the jobs impact of the American Jobs Plan.
Slippery Pete admitted to misrepresenting the number of new jobs Joe Biden’s proposed $2 trillion infrastructure plan would create, essentially confirming he had overstated the figure by around 16 million.
USA LOSES RESPECT OF EVERY ENEMY
If confirmed by the Senate, Wormuth -- who once served as the Pentagon's top policy official in the final years of the Obama administration -- would be the first woman to serve in the position.
Also nominated to two other top Pentagon posts were former California Rep. Gil Cisneros to be the under secretary of defense for personnel and readiness, and Susanna Blume to serve as the director of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (CAPE).
YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP
FLORIDA: According to a police report from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, deputies went to a Largo home on a call of suspected child abuse. When they arrived around 9 p.m. Wednesday, they found “The Cat in the Hat” children’s book on the night stand in mother Casey Quoka’s bedroom, “easily accessibly by the victim,” the child in question, according to the report.
ALSO IN FLORIDA
Stallone was seen at the club taking pictures with other members and confirmed that “Sly just became a member of Mar-a-Lago,” which includes a hefty $200,000 initiation fee.
But this may not be a political statement. Rambo recently purchased a $35 million Palm Beach home that is literally a tee shot away from the club. So this may have simply been a decision of convenience.
He is taking a lot of reaction both good and bad.

April is Confederate History Month and we need to proclaim that without hesitation or apology. When leftist thugs howl about the South seceding so she could keep all her slaves we need to start asking them about those slave states that remained part of the Union all the way up until the 13th Amendment was enacted, months after “honest” Abe was dead and gone. Having never learned any real history most of them won’t know anything about that. You will need to remind them–not that it will shut them up–but it might slow them down a bit if someone has an accurate answer to their tomfoolishness.
Ray H. Shores had an informative article in the recent issue of The Southern Defender. He raised some good points both from a Christian and Southern perspective. He talked about duty calling us and wondered if we would answer. He wrote: “Now more than ever before, duty calls us to take a public stand for Liberty, which is more than just freedom. It’s freedom tied to Biblical principles, where the Founders of the United States and Confederate States took a public stand.”
And he continued: “It’s easy to say that we’ll fight when the going really gets rough–when the goons come for the guns, perhaps. But, what if the goons don’t come for the guns? What if they just make it a crime to use them without a permit–a permit that is rarely approved. We would be wise to remember that the Apostle Peter told Jesus he would stand up to the goons when the going got rough. Later, he cried tears of regret because he failed. Anybody can brag about things he or she will do tomorrow, but brave men and women are taking a stand now.” I have often heard people brag that “They will only get my gun when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.” And I have often wondered how many of those that loudly make this brag will be the first to line up and turn their guns in if push ever comes to shove.
Bragging and doing ain’t necessarily the same animal.
At any rate,. Ray gave us a list of things most of us can work at doing right now that may help to forestall the enemies of Christian liberty we are all faced with today. I won’t list them all here but I will give you some of them–the ones that jumped out at me as I read them:
Pray for courage and protection during these times when we confront determined anti-liberty, pro-Communist foes.
In your front yard, on the tallest flagpoles you can afford, raise one or two flags of liberty…This action will embolden your children, your neighbors, and even yourself. Flags are a rallying point, and the sight of them builds courage and reminds the troops of the reason they are fighting…
Only support politicians that are active open champions of the ‘Original Intent’ of the U.S. Constitution and States Rights. Stop supporting weaklings, appeasers and con-men.
Study your Bible and work to repent of real sins instead of sins invented by heretics and Communists, such as the ‘sins” of owning too much property, having too much money, and associating with people of your own choosing. Claim the gender that God gave you at birth. Don’t support the ‘Woke Church’ and churches that adhere to the Communist-created ‘Critical Race Theory’.
Work to purify your mind through learning, and avoid corrupting influences, such as perverted and Communist-inspired television programs…
Work to purify the hearts and minds of your children. Try to avoid putting them into the clutches of Marxist-minded teachers or into schools led by conformists and people who fear the news media more than they love truth and liberty.
Patronize pro-Liberty businesses and websites. Use web browsers, social media and e-mail hosts that are not joined at the hip with the Federal government. Some of the Liberty flags Ray mentioned earlier are The Betsy Ross flag, The Bonnie Blue flag, The Confederate Battle flag, the Confederate First National flag, the Gadsden flag. I did articles about three of these flags awhile back on my https://thecopperhead.blogspot.com site–a site that has been seriously shadow-banned because I refuse to be politically correct. Hopefully this brief article will encourage some of you to take note of and celebrate Confederate History Month.

It has been famously said that there is nothing new under the sun. It was true thousands of years ago, and if the intervening years are any indication of the future, it will be true thousands of years from now. It is also true that there are certainly new things under the sun, such as alphabetisation, paper, optical lenses, the printing press and the list could go on and on and on, but obviously new inventions could not have been what the ancient writer meant because man had already been developing new ways of doing things since Eve developed multi-tasking and sometime later someone invented the wheel.
No, we understand what he meant. There is nothing new because man's nature does not change, and all that is of man is born of this nature. Human nature, as a rule, is a topic that popular media carefully avoids today, but the Common Man understands it or easily will when it is pointed out. No, there are no new emotions to be felt. There is nothing new that compels man to this or that. There will be no new history in which past paradigms or precedents cannot be seen. History will continue to be made and no new state of affairs will be permanent.
The Radical Left stole the election in 2020 and we are heart-broken because we see cherished institutions and ideas being savaged, much like a great battleship lost in flame and smoke because its escorts turned their guns on it. But it's a battleship. The crew can recover, extinguish the fires, and the smoke will clear. It can then blast the treacherous escorts out of the water.
The Left has been winning the war for a long time, but it is war that it cannot win here in America any more than it did in the former Soviet Union or any more than it can be said to have won in Cuba or Venezuela. This is true if for no other reason than that Progressivism, with its rejection of human nature, is inherently destructive and will destroy itself eventually. In a nutshell all that we on the Right have to do is NOT bend the knee and raise up our wee bairns so that they will not either, and who then in their turn will raise up their wee bairns so that they will not either... etc.
However, if we want to speed the pendulum of history along, in the meantime we need to fight, fight, fight!

Yesterday I pointed out that no facts known at this time support a Covid passport.
The Establishment is not interested in facts and has no need of them. The Establishment has the presstitute lie machine. It creates whatever reality the Establishment wants us to live in.
Nevertheless, some facts are just overwhelming. Consider Florida. Long a retirement state, it is a state with a large proportion of elderly and overweight people. For the past year Florida has not been under lockdown or a mask mandate. The state is wide open. Consequently, one would think that Florida would have the hightest number of Covid deaths per 100,000 population.
But that is not the case. Florida’s 154 Covid deaths per 100,000 is in the middle of the 50 states ranking. New Jersey, a lockdown state, has a deaths per 100,000 almost twice Florida’s at 1.78 times. Lockdowned New York’s deaths are 1.66 times higher than Floridas. Lockdowned Massachusetts and Rhode Island Covid deaths are 1.60 times higher than Florida’s.
These numbers are from the official data. The conclusion is that Florida, an open state with an elderly and overweight population without dockdown and mask mandates—conditions that according to the medical bureaucrats should have produced the leading high death rate—is in the middle of the pack.
We can safely conclude that lockdowns and mask mandates are pointless. And this conclusion does not take into account the many expert and suppressed opinions that the lockdowns and the masks do more harm than good.
Despite the facts, the corrupt Biden regime, a stolen presidency, is working with private companies who smell the profits to develop vaccine passport systems, which they allege is the only way to return to normalcy. In other words, if you want to get out of jail, you will have to give up your privacy.
Scared people are likely to fall for the propaganda that the passport is a public health measure that will liberate us from lockdowns. But Florida doesn’t have lockdowns or a vaccine passport. Naomi Wolf warns:
“I am not overstating this. I can’t say it forcefully enough. This is literally the end of human liberty in the west if this plan unfolds as planned. Vaccine passports sound like a fine thing if you don’t understand what these platforms can do ...
“It’s not about the vaccine. It’s not about the virus. It’s about your data. And once this rolls out you don’t have a choice about being part of the system. What people have to understand is that any other functionality can be loaded onto that platform with no problem at all. What that means is that it can be merged with your Paypal account, with your digital currency, Microsoft is already talking about merging it with payment plans. Your networks can be sucked up. It geolocates you wherever you go. Your credit history can be included. All of your medical history can be included.”
To keep the fear level high the medical bureaucrat who heads the Centers for Disease Control, Rochelle Walensky, preditcted yesterday, based on her feelings, impending doom from a new Covid surge.
Allegedly, the US has had 30 million Covid cases. Where does this number come from. It comes from financial incentives to hospitals to report every death as a Covid death—see this and from running the PCR test at such high cycles that the test produces false positives. In other words, the figure is an orchestrated figure in service to an agenda.
Has the public noticed that this year there has been no flu season? The explanation is that the flu cases have been conflated with Covid cases in order to multiply the
level of Covid infection.
A population that is so easily manipulated and scared has no possibility of holding on to liberty. Eighteenth century Americans valued liberty—“give me liberty or give me death.” Twenty-first century Americans evidently do not. Their acceptance of lockdowns proves their readiness for the Gulag.

As many of our Dixie Heritage readers know, I host a monthly horology podcast. Late Tuesday night I posted it to both DailyMotion and to YouTube and when I woke up on Wednesday morning it had been removed from both. To view the controversial podcast use this RUMBLE link: |

Yes, that means we have now launched on yet another social media platform. If these platforms would simply operate with integrity we would not need to keep looking for new platforms. That said, I really like the way Rumble is set up and the way it all works. In short, I am hoping that Rumble works out and if it does we will eventually transfer to and host everything from Rumble channels.
Another issue is that YouTube plasters ads on everything whether you monetize it or not and always has an excuse not to pay the monetization commissions. I hear reports that Rumble pays their monetization no problem. So again, we will see.
But I would like for you to look at and subscribe to the following Rumble channels:
Dixie Heritage: https://rumble.com/c/c-748153
Horology Podcast: https://rumble.com/c/c-748223
Old Camp Meeting Time: https://rumble.com/c/c-748557
By doing so you will not only help us in the search algorithms but you will also make our videos more appealing to potential advertisers. It would seem that on Rumble the advertisers come to and pick the video rather than the platform just slapping ads on the videos.
Governor Hogan is still yet to take action on the legislative action to cancel the State Song of Maryland My Maryland. he can VETO the bill. Or he can do nothing and the bill will eventually become "law." The clock is ticking.
“The despot’s heel is on thy shore,” in the person and politics of Maryland’s leftists. “…Their torches are at thy Temple door, Maryland my Maryland.”
Call Governor Hogan at 410-974-3901 and remind him that he has a sworn duty to VETO and oppose any and all efforts to cancel Maryland’s culture!
Deo Vindice!
