Originally posted over at American Partisan. Come check us out- lots of good liberty-oriented material getting posted daily. Many of the questions I get on a day-to-day basis revolve around what equipment is needed to get a radio station up and running with minimal cost. That’s a tough question and one that’s even tougher when …

Note- this article came out of a conversation a few of us had regarding off the shelf community building tools and the value of low power FM radio. It so happens they could make good psyop tools if you think along the left hand path. If you're wondering what that means, read The Devil's Guard. …

The good folks at 144:1 are requesting the interest level in a Resistor IR patch. They're gonna be a little more expensive than the usual patches due to the material, but well worth it especially for y'all running STANO gear. Not only that, IR patches just look cool. Leave a comment or send them an …
Clothes don't make the man. All too often in the Survivalist & Prepper scene a lot of focus gets placed on gear. In fact so much so that a lot of sites devolve into simply reviewing individual pieces, which in turn is basically an overview with nothing else. And don't get me wrong, I love …
