My friends, this powerful interview with Whitney Webb on The Chris Hedges Report has truly opened my eyes wider to the quiet storm building around us. As Buddy Huggins, the Buddha from Mississippi, I have always believed that true peace and freedom start right here in our own backyards—with our families, our neighbors, and especially our local governments. Whitney lays out in clear detail how powerful networks, tied to figures like Peter Thiel and companies such as Palantir, are weaving a vast web of surveillance that reaches from the highest levels down into our everyday lives. We hear about predictive policing, data collection from 911 calls feeding AI systems, license plate readers like Flock, and technologies that could profile and control us before we even know it.
What strikes me deepest is this: if we wait for change from Washington or far-off places, it may be too late. But at the town and county level, we still have a real voice. We can attend meetings, ask questions, push back against these systems being quietly installed in our communities, and choose leaders who value privacy and human dignity over high-tech control. This is where we can plant the seeds of resistance with love, education, and community—sharing information, building awareness, and protecting our God-given freedoms before the net tightens.
The worst-case scenario, if all this is fully implemented without pushback, is a totalitarian world where every move, call, and thought is tracked and judged by machines and those who control them. We would live in a cage we helped build, recognizing too late that our freedoms—not just to act, but to simply be happy and at peace—have been stripped away. Happiness can endure even when freedoms are limited, but in a total lockdown of surveillance and pre-crime prediction, joy itself becomes monitored and managed. That is why we must act now, with kindness and determination, educating ourselves and others about these tools like Palantir, Flock, and the data-grabbing systems, starting right at home in our local halls of government. Together, in love and awareness, we can choose a better path.

If you feel called to stand with us and help turn the tide, please join me at the next City Hall meeting in Ozark, Missouri, on January 5th, 2026, at 6:30 PM. The meeting will be held at Ozark City Hall, 205 N. 1st Street, Ozark, MO 65721. This is our chance—right here in our own community—to speak up, ask the hard questions, and push back before these systems take deeper root. Your voice matters more than you know. Come show up in love and strength; together, we can protect our freedoms and choose a brighter path for everyone. I hope to see you there. Together, in love and awareness, we can choose a better path.
