IF YOU HEDGE, ITS NOT A PLEDGE!

“I PLEDGE ALLEGIENCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”!

These twelve simple words were how Young Thomas Jefferson started each school day of his senior year at Mountain Union High School. He stood, back strait, with his hand covering his heart, reciting, and pledging his loyalty to the country his family had dedicated their lives to defending. Some of his classmates fooled about as the daily ritual was practiced, but Thomas had been raised in a household headed by his stepfather, Sgt. Charles Wineboon a disabled Vietnam veteran, while the rest of his family also contributed to the family legacy of courageous service to our country, his biological father Anthony Jefferson was also a Vietnam veteran, his biological grandfather, Richard Jefferson had received a pair of purple hearts on two separate continents during the second world war and he had an Uncle, “Herc” Monroe, a highly decorated Army Ranger who was classified as MIA in 1970, by a government that wouldn’t even disclose the general whereabouts of where he went missing . Given his family’s patriotic history and service, Thomas Jefferson was especially proud that he was named after one of our founding fathers and primary architects of our county’s Constitution. For Thomas, His daily pledge of allegiance was a sacred ritual, and its words were to be taken seriously and treated with reverence. He also has volunteered to be the schools Flag Monitor for the last two semesters The Jefferson household took its patriotic duties seriously and the young man raised in a family devoted to constitutional commitment and courageous military service had every intention of honoring his family’s lineage of patriotic duty and behavior. One of life’s greatest regrets for Thomas was that the heart defect he was born with was going to prevent him from serving in the military of his country, he vowed he would still find a way to honor his family tradition of service to this country despite his unfortunate 4F medical status Especially as he watched his beloved country begin to unravel as the current White House administrations agenda of weaponizing greed and racial hatred in order to divide and conquer political power in what was once “the land of the free and the home of the brave” until it currently and shamefully now resembled a country “without conscious or courage”. The Jefferson families sort of patriotic devotion seemed to be in rapid decline as the country and its military was being led by a man who himself lacked the courage to serve and he instead dodged the draft and was later caught red-handed, stealing millions of dollars from Wounded Warriors charities, dishonoring Gold Star Family’s and belittling the brave Americans who bravely died on the beaches of Normandy during World War II. This same poisonous president later went on to cheat 360 million Americans out of a free and just presidential election by denouncing the constitution, running criminal election campaigns resulting in the illegal theft of the U.S. presidency from all its citizens! Thomas had seen enough, it was time for him to step up and do the Jefferson name proud, like his patriotically devoted descendants. Because Thomas believed in the constitution and the democratic process, he committed himself to sharing his Constitutional knowledge, patriotic beliefs, and devotion to our democracy. Thomas decided he would start to compile and catalog all the indisputable evidence of evil and corruption that was readily available to anybody who was so inclined to dig for the truth. He articulately detailed how the U.S. constitution and U.S. law had been desecrated and denounced in the recently corrupted and invalid American presidential election process! Here is the thing, our U.S. constitution and country’s history are a matter of public record and available to anybody and everybody who wishes to enlighten themselves on what is really going on in the country. Thomas wasn’t just going to fight for his country’s freedom, and to preserve its history with opinions, baseless claims, false facts and inuendo, he was painstakingly compiling and collecting factual data and incontrovertible evidence from the U.S. Constitution and volumes of incriminating evidence derived from well documented and recorded historical events, a Patriots manifesto if you will, of the betrayal and cowardice, hate and greed that have shredded the very fabric of this once proud nation . This proved much easier than Thomas had ever expected as the great majority of these crimes were committed arrogantly and repeatedly in open and plain sight. The pages of the constitution clearly detailed the criminal nature of every political campaign he was complicit in. These revelations revealed overwhelming evidence that he was undeniably a cowardly draft dodger, and a corrupt tax evader. Thomas would also introduce mountains of evidence implicating the terrible tyrant in the sexual assault of dozens of women and at least one gang rape of a child allegedly committed with his best friend and convicted pedophile Jeffery Epstein, these immoral and criminal acts against humanity were not limited to strangers and enemies, he once poured lots of effort and expensive resources into taking away the health insurance of his own niece as she was suffering with brain cancer simply to punish his own brother who had the nerve to question the fact that he had been cheated and robbed of his rightful inheritance upon the death of their father. Thomas understood the dangers of challenging a sociopath who had managed to seize control of the planets most powerful nation. Courageously choosing to ignore the obvious retaliation and retribution he would be facing. The powerful pull of his patriotism had considerably more influence on him than his own sense of self-preservation. Thankfully Thomas was successfully able to overcome this same kind of fear that prevents most people from confronting the schoolyard bully who steals their lunch money or intervening when someone is hurting an innocent child.

Thomas already felt a little alienated from some of his school friends and acquaintances who had already drunk the M.A.G.A. Kool-Aid, and subscribed to the notion that pursuing unbridled greed and fueling racial hatred were the best way to “make America great again”. Having already failed in numerous attempts to convince his classmates and compatriots that everything this country was built on and stood for was being undermined from within.

Our brave Patriot understood that exposing the truth about how tens of millions of Americans had been dupped, conned and hustled into acting against their own country was going to put a very large target on his back.

Compiling the incriminating evidence was too easy, almost every illegal and immoral attack on the U.S. constitution and violation of American law was well documented and repeatedly committed right in front of our very noses. In fact, so much overwhelming evidence exists that trying to deny all these crimes was pointless. Once it became clear that there was to much evidence of evil and wrongdoing to have any kind of rational explanation, chance to be whitewashed or offer a shred of plausible deniability, an innovative and alternate approach became necessary (AKA alternative facts). If you cannot prove yourself innocent of wrongdoing, then you need to flip the script and overturn the narrative of what public’s perception is on what is right and what is wrong, what is moral and what is immoral, what is truth and what is a lie. Welcome to, “The Emperor Wears No Clothes” * the 2026 edition!

We were once a country whose political leaders proudly served this country in ways that inspired books like “profiles in courage” and The “Accidental President”. Now we are stuck with someone whose biography would likely deserve a title like “chronicles of Cowardice” or “A record of Rape”. There is so much evidence about the president’s lifetime long desecration of American and spiritual values that it was not possible to document it all, as his crime of conscience and acts against humanity are occurring at a rate much faster than they can be properly documented.

Despite the daunting nature of his task, Thomas set forth on collecting evidence against a man who originally took office while facing over 3,500 lawsuits accusing him of failure to pay for goods and services(an act, legally and morally considered to be theft throughout recorded history), documentation detailing a lifetime and family history of horrible racial abuses, scores of accusations regarding sexual assault and child abuse, recorded tax evasion, a long history of obstruction of justice and witness intimidation, later betraying and alienating all our closest allies, while also empowering our most bitter enemies, auctioning off our country’s National resources and protected lands to the highest bidder, and the complete and cowardly betrayal of every man and woman whoever courageously served in the U.S. Armed Forces! Thomas was greatly troubled over the direction and path his beloved America was starting to travel!

The evidence Thomas had compiled was undeniabl, incredibly and accurately incriminating to anyone who knew that you cannot turn the truth into a lie simply by calling it fake news (although admittedly such irresponsible journalism has existed since the beginnings of the written word)! Thomas’s dossier of democracy consisted of almost 200 pages of outline, and when he decided to share this skeletal outline of evildoing with a few of his patriotically-like-minded friends from high school. Social media being what it is, the word spread and the thing blew up and patriotic Americans across the country were amazed at the due diligence and factually accurate account of how a man with no record of ever having done a single deed in his life that could be classified as patriotic, courageous, Christian, or humanitarian could fool a whole nation. How is it possible for a human being to live 79 years without a record of him ever doing one single solitary thing that was not self-serving or unselfish! Within days millions upon millions of Americans had seen the myth exposed and all our shameful failures to god and country were laid open for the world to see. This of course did not sit well with the misinformed populace responsible for this patriotic desecration, and all the perpetrators of our country’s betrayal. Expectedly, the repercussions for Thomas’s push for patriotism did not take long to manifest themselves. The first of the numerous incidents of retaliation started the very same day that his patriotic posting recorded over 100 million views. Rufas Stutz a member of the local P.D. with a history and past ties to a local white supremacist group, pulled over Thomas for failing to effectively use his turn indicator when making a right-hand turn. After having pulled him out of the vehicle and he had conducted an unwarranted search, the officer discovered a felonious quantities of heroin and cocaine and dirty drug paraphernalia for their usage in his glovebox. Never mind that the paraphernalia tested dirty for the drug, but Thomas inexplicably did not. In spite of this, they planned to go forward with a criminal prosecution. The plans to prosecute quickly evaporated when a camera on Thomas’s dashboard showed clear images of the dirty officer planting the drugs and paraphernalia in Thomas’s car. By now the young man’s devotion to democracy and subsequent arrest had become National news and the public outcry over his mistreatment was loud and relentless. The police quickly made a public announcement dropping all charges and putting the crooked officer under paid administrative leave pending an internal investigation. For the illegitimate Commander in Chief consumed with attention and social media this was all more than he could take, he called the High School senior a traitor and declared the corrupt officer an American hero, while reinstating his position and giving him a promotion. Our national narcissist was at his limit, and he started pitching behind closed doors that the Department of Defense needed to take out this young insurrectionist. The proposed political assassination of a teenager was silently considered, but it was quickly pointed out that assassinating a teenager for criticizing an American president would show a weakness and fear for the truth, which might weaken his already precarious position. Since young Thomas garnered so much national attention and citizen support. The young man had very quickly become the face of the Patriotic Americans resistance movement, and a political assassination of a kid would provide the resistance a powerful martyr for the rapidly rising pro-Constitution and anti-fascist movements. However, if the president used his wartime powers to publicly execute Thomas Jefferson simply for challenging the administration and its corrupt leaders, that would strike deep fear into anybody who chose to challenge the Commander in Thief’s newly unrestricted presidential powers. The faux presidents weakening position needed a show of strength and it was determined that he would have the Department of Homeland Security announce Thomas guilty of treason and should be put to death. Unfortunately, this would have to wait until the president decided who he was going to start a war with so he could declare himself a war-time president. This would facilitate his ability to impose martial law, imprison his detractors, and declare himself Constitutionally unremovable from the White House during a time of ongoing war!

For this despicable despot who had as much trouble controlling his bowels as he did his temper, this was the most exciting and fear inducing plan he ever had, the National broadcast of him wearing a black hood that did almost nothing in the way of disguising his bloated identity, executing an eighteen-year-old boy who dared to question the validity and the legitimacy of the man who had already declared himself “the second coming” and “the new King of Isreal” being put to death by hanging. If he were capable of murdering this innocent young lad in front of the world, simply for having the audacity to challenge his illegitimate authority and come to the defense of his country. this would be the kind of terroristic message he needed to send in order to strike fear into hearts of every American citizen who dared to oppose him and every foreign leader he would enter into diplomatic negotiations with!

Now the president just needed to decide what souverain nation would be the sacrificial lamb in his evil attempt to declare himself “president for life”. And the lucky winner is Iran, A country whose military might is certainly no match for the USA but soon this war would attract the military attention of China, Russia and North Korea. This did not pencil out in the long game, so he covertly negotiated with the Big Three, promising that he had no intention of occupying the South American Nation, but he just needed to start a war to complete his takeover of America and eliminate his domestic enemies. Not exactly having a reputation for honesty or integrity, the Foreign nations wanted compensation up front for their much-needed neutrality and that compensation that would come in the form of surrendering unto them possession of all the American territories not having been previously granted statehood. It was a remarkably high price to pay indeed, but it was also an excessively big ask of the trio of co-conspiring Communistic countries!

The American Government was a chaotic mess, being run by zealots trying to justify starting a war solely for the sole purpose of one man wanting to retain power and discarding our Constitution only to satisfy that mans oversized ego.

Thomas’s trial for treason was a sham, portraying the devoted patriot as another Benedict Arnold conspiring with the enemy to unseat our democracy, when not a single bit of evidence was ever produced to support that he was ever remotely involved in anything of the sort.

To no one’s surprise, Thomas’s trial was over almost as soon as it started, no witnesses, no evidence, just the assertion of the worlds biggest liar that if we wanted to “Make America Great Again” this voice of dissention needed to be silenced and what better way to send that message than to have him hung by the neck until dead on the steps of our Capitol building. It is unclear as to why the jury had even been sent to the deliberation room, since they had already been told how they would decide and as to what the sentence would be! The news agencies were likewise ready and prepared to make the big announcement! THOMAS JEFFERSON, GUILTY OF TREASON, SENTENCED TO DEATH BY HANGING!

17 days later Thomas was escorted up the steps of the scaffold at the same Capitol building that had earlier been attacked under the direction of the same ruthless dictator who was now poised to pull the lever that would send an unwaveringly patriotic American teen named after one of our country’s most revered founding fathers dropping to his death.

After asking to be helped applying young Thomas’s noose necktie, the Dirty Rat Autocrat, asked the doomed patriot “do you have any last words or pleas for mercy”? “for you, NO, and not a cent for tribute” , Thomas would use his last words to honor his family members who sacrificed so much for this country, and like his Uncle “Herc”, who had presumedly died on foreign soil decades earlier, he would take his last breath on earth, defending his country against all threats, once just foreign, but now domestic!
