Today (April 19, 2025) is exactly the 250th anniversary of “The shot heard round the world” in Lexington, Massachusetts, the town I grew up in. That shot (more accurately “shots”) began the Revolutionary War. This morning I attended the Town of Lexington’s reenactment, although the battle green and much of the immediate surrounding area were roped off, making it hard to get a good look at the confrontation. There were hundreds of spectators. The “redcoat” reenactors were supposed to arrive at 5:15 AM, but didn’t show until 6. Someone joked that they must have stopped at Dunkin’ Donuts.
In 2015, as many of my subscribers know, I vetted the “Battle of Lexington” for exactly what it was—a Freemasonic false flag. What the redcoats marched into at 5AM on April 19, 1775 was a carefully laid trap.
The war was not about taxes. The ONLY tax Britain was laying on the colonies at the time of the “shot” was a 3-cent customs duty on a pound of tea. THAT WAS IT. Any other taxes had been rescinded. The customs duty on tea was a pittance compared to what Americans pay their own government today.
Nor was the war about “rights.” Americans already had freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, the right to trial by jury, and most of the other freedoms enumerated in the Bill of Rights.
At its root, the war was not even about “Americans versus British,” though they were the immediate players. It was essentially the beginning of the Rothschilds’ campaign of replacing hereditary monarchies with their “republics” and “democracies” whose “elected” leaders would be handpicked in advance in order to establish the New World Order.
