Dear friends and patriots,

As you know, I’ve been working hard on what I think might be one of my best pieces in some time, the Agenda 47 Explained Series. It’s taken me longer than I had anticipated, for a few different reasons, and I wanted to post an update about what’s been going on behind the scenes.

I have some exciting news to share, as well as an update on some bad news. I also spontaneously added a brief introduction to my discovery of Omniology, which I hope to talk more about in the future. It has to do with something I’m calling Practical Discernment, a tool to help us find common ground on the truth that we each mutually experience so that our differences are not weaponized against us by those who benefit from a house divided against itself.

My Deepest Thanks

Before we start, I want to thank each of you for your support during this tough time in my life.

For a while, I wasn't sure if I could continue this effort. My life has been in turmoil for more than a year, causing me to question whether I should continue. In part, it was your love, financial support, and encouragement, in combination with much prayer, that helped me decide to continue.

I’ve got so much I want to do, books I want to write, podcasts I want to do, and collaborative business projects I want to start with fellow patriots so we can do more than learn; we can actually lead the charge in making things better. Of course, these things take time and resources, which means, as ever, it’s a delicate balance until things become more abundant on the financial front.

Agenda 47 and the Promise of the Future

That leads me to Trump’s Agenda 47, which promises to be a sweeping shift in the economy that will create enormous opportunities for Americans—and that's just one of the things on the table. There’s a lot that Trump has talked about that we’ll be covering in the Agenda 47 Explained Series that will make clear just how positive these changes will be. As a teaser, the use of tariffs and lowering that tax rate, combined with deregulation, could put as much as $30,000 in the pockets of working-class Americans, according to one economist—and that’s just the beginning. If you didn’t know that, then this is one of the reasons I’m doing the series; it’s because there’s much more to why the next four years are going to be amazing that hasn’t become well known.

The uniparty is likely going to unleash even more propaganda, PSYOPs, and divide-and-conquer tactics. The last thing they want is for patriots to learn how to set aside their differences and work together to create and maintain a united foundation for freedom. As demonstrated by the recent eruption of the H-1B visa issue, Trump's supporters are not a monolithic group, which contributes to our strength as a political base. They will try to exploit our differences to make us fight each other and then use that to paint Trump supporters as disjointed and squabblers. Despite their diversity and numerous disagreements, the founding fathers and patriots in the early US were able to manage them without fracturing.

Thus, I believe anything we can do to maintain respectful cohesion and learn how to identify the minefield of sock-puppet accounts on social media that try to stir up trouble will be very helpful. This brings me to my next update.

Discernment Guide Project

As I’ll briefly explain later in this update, I was fortunate to discover an effective and powerful method for discerning the truth and analyzing information to identify the best argument for any given situation.

I had previously decided to write a book about elections, but with everything that happened last year, there just wasn’t enough time to finish it. After completing the Agenda 47 Explained Series, I will concentrate on disseminating some of this content. In 2018, I wrote an article on discernment, which became one of my most popular pieces, garnering approximately 500k page views by the time I last checked in 2021.

Considering how much propaganda, fake news, clickbait, and outright lies there are to navigate out there, a quality Discernment Guide would be really handy to have, and I hope to offer something useful in this regard.

As part of my preparation for my family, I’m passionate about writing down what I’ve learned in my life as a kind of inheritance to my future children. It makes sense to take this a step further and offer it as a stream of content.

The Discernment Guide will provide a solid foundation for the other subjects that I think will become more important to understand as time goes on. Knowledge acts as a shield against manipulation, which is why the globalists have worked so hard to compromise our education systems. In terms of community building, securing businesses, and getting on the same page, one of the most important things we can do to avoid relationship-destroying misunderstandings, defend our communities from propaganda, and build prosperity.

In my opinion, as a holistic business consultant, there is a tremendous loss of productivity, profit, and increased risk associated with communication, coordination, and discernment-related problems. The globalists exploit these weaknesses to kill their competition. That means if we have tools to deal with these problems, turning them into assets, patriots build stronger communities and businesses that are immune to the manipulations of the globalist con artists of the world.

Two Reasons

With Trump’s historic 2024 win and the looming inauguration, there’s a lot to talk about. I find myself squirreling away ideas and scrambling to write them down faster than I can turn them into content. The bottleneck can be a bit frustrating, albeit a good type of frustration. Mainly I’ve been working on the Agenda 47 Explained series, part two in particular, but I’ve also been drafting ideas for more articles, experimenting with X thread-style posts, and more content ideas. I think the latest installment in the Agenda 47 series will be my best yet, as I decided to go as deep as I could to explain what I know about the foundations of freedom and the original purpose of the constitutional republic the founding fathers envisioned. The Omniological Process I'll speak to in a moment is the process I used to cultivate much of the things I'm explaining, which is why I think it's now time to be more open about this.

The first reason is that it appears Trump is about to finally unfold his plan to Make America Great Again, unveiling what he means when he says, “the best is yet to come.”

For the most part, I believe that Trump's moves over the years have been calculated in what appears to be a grand design to dissolve away decades, if not centuries, of civilization-manipulating propaganda, economic policies, cultural impositions, and much more. No doubt a good chunk of what he does is not calculated; it's a kind of improvisational good luck. Nevertheless, the impact seems to be collectively contributing to much-needed change for our civilization. I believe this to be true not because of my love of Trump or blind faith. This belief is actually a conclusion based on what I've come to understand about the mechanics of civilizations and the existing systems of tyranny that have forced themselves upon us as a people. I don’t claim to know everything, and I’m not some kind of insider with any kind of special access.

I think that the long-term solution to the problems that got us here is to restore the spiritual immune system of our culture. To do this, we need as many citizens as possible to understand the narrow path that is true freedom so that all the false paths that are pushed by the globalist con men can be seen for what they are—false paths.

For years Trump has been building up assets in the political and cultural arena, which I believe he had to do to prepare the way for what is to come. If Trump and his team manage to accomplish even a fraction of what he has promised, then things are about to radically change for the better.

In 2015, Trump began his history-making career in politics, and he started to talk about the problems and changes we needed to make to fix our country and civilization. In 2022, when Trump started his campaign and he began talking about Agenda 47 for his next administration in office, it was then that my doubts began to fade, not that I had many to begin with. Trump isn’t just going to make things better for a few years; he appears to be attempting to destroy the very tools the deep state uses to maintain their power. As always, maintaining our freedom requires constant vigilance, and it is our responsibility to educate and guide future generations so they can continue this legacy. Understanding the intricacies of the fundamental issues that led us to this point is crucial, and I have made the decision to dedicate myself to shedding light on them.

The Agenda 47 Explained series is my attempt to shed light on the greater context of what Trump has talked about doing and how it will likely address these core problems. In simple terms, the powers that be are con men of a grand order—but a con is still just a con. Understanding the workings of a con, akin to any deception, enables us to discern the falsehoods and prevent deception. For this reason, I decided it was important to try and lay out a full and comprehensive framework to explain as much as I could about how Agenda 47 will uproot the weeds of corruption and fraud that have held us back for so long. As a result, the series has become a much bigger project, but one I think that is worth the undertaking.

The second reason is that my personal life has been a whirlwind in both a positive and negative way.

Let’s talk about the bad news first.

I was in the hospital too many times last year dealing with appendix-related abscesses, which have thankfully appeared to be resolved. There were four hospital stays in 2024, with a couple of quick tips on top of those. The first was in February, there were two in August, and a last brief event in November. The last one was likely due to the malpractice of the first; I believe the doctors left something in my side from the drain that they installed to deal with the first basketball-sized abscess. I’m very grateful for the help I received, but I also experienced firsthand the incompetence of the medical system. Alongside these, I had some dental issues, and a defective crown was put in last year, which split within only a few weeks. God willing, I will replace that in the coming weeks.

On the positive side, I’m thrilled to share that my wife and I are expecting our first son in March. We decided in July 2024 to move to Asheville, where some of her family have aggregated. We were required to relocate from our residence in the Atlanta area by the end of September. Our move was planned for the 30th, and unbeknownst to us, hurricane Helene was going to hit the day before our departure. This completely threw off our move, and it more than doubled an already expensive effort. We were forced to find storage for all our belongings, as we were unable to access our new place for weeks. Thankfully, we were spared any major damage, and my wife’s family was also miraculously spared, although her neighbors had large trees fall on their property.

Oh so close

As I write this in January 2025, the process of unpacking is almost complete. While all this moving and recovery was happening, we were planning our family, and I was finding work to supplement our income.

All in all, these are the factors that have contributed to delays and a longer production time for the Agenda 47 Explained series that I began last year.

I’m grateful for all of my supporters who have so graciously become paid subscribers and who have helped make this project a reality over the past year.

To pull back the curtain on how I do my writing, I work best when I have large chunks of time where I can furiously write and immerse myself in a project. Over the years, I've written extensively, contributing over a million words to the Into The Storm series on Rise.tv from 2020 to 2022. I would often spend 12 hours a day consumed by research, writing, and development. Lately, the numerous changes in my life, albeit some of the most joyous, have made this impossible. I'm discovering that if I wake up early, I can complete my work and write uninterrupted for a few hours each day.

The Discovery of Omniology

Before I close out this update, I want to tell you more about something that has been gaining cohesion for over a decade.

In short, I believe our world needs a reliable and effective system for discerning the truth—something that is more than just faith, more than just what he or she said, and more than expert vs. expert. I'm not referring to religious discernment, not that I have anything against it. I’m talking about a tool for organizing information so that the well-nigh infinite truth that pours into our reality every second of every day can help inform, inspire, and, most importantly, expand our knowledge to defend against tyranny.

Practical discernment, we might call it, helps us recognize that many of life's situations are shared burdens, a common experience. Despite our differences, everyone is always, without fail, sharing a common experience—we're each immersed in a single unifying truth that is reality itself. As long as we approach a situation with good faith and withhold contempt, we can resolve any divide that may arise by recognizing the truth we each experience and our perspectives on it. In short, the insidious bad faith actors, the uniparty, the con men, the shadow men, and so on—nearly every bad guy out there—use divide and conquer, deception, and manipulation. These tools of malevolence, we might say, can be rendered useless through practical discernment that enables men and women of good character to unite for a common good. In short, I believe this is the ultimate tool of freedom, prosperity, and peace, which is why I believe it’s so important.

In 2010, my life changed forever when I discovered that the media, politics, medicine, law, education, and almost every other area of human life were not as they seemed. It was like waking up from a dream; I had to find answers to my questions about what was really going on. As fortune would have it, I stumbled upon several bodies of information that helped me make sense of the law, the economy, social programming, and many other areas of life the powers that be have used against the freedom-yarning people of the world.

As a child, my parents spoiled my curiosity and creativity. I loved learning about new things. I had passions about certain topics, but I just loved learning about any and everything. Later, I believe this gave me insight into the fundamental patterns that underlie all reality. Despite my love of learning, I was never a good student in school, and I’m a horrible test taker. After I left college and I finally got my act together, I had to fall into the earning-a-living rhythm, which left little time for much else. Then, in late spring 2010, I discovered Max Gerson’s work, a doctor who claimed to have found a reliable cure for cancer as far back as 1928, and my world unraveled. I couldn’t fathom how this could be true while we live in a world where so many people suffer and die from cancer.

I picked up the book, The Gerson Therapy, and applied my knowledge of science and physics to debunk the material. As I began to digest the material, I found myself needing to study other fields to make sense of what it was saying. This led to the emergence of a new problem: how do I know what is really true? The book seemed to make sense; I was finding countless accounts of people claiming their cancers disappeared after undergoing his protocols, but Wikipedia and other “authoritative sources” said that the Gerson Therapy was misinformation.

That was the beginning of a multi-year journey to study as much as possible, which ultimately led me to the field of epistemology, the philosophy of knowledge. I was surprised that I hadn't learned about epistemology in school, given that it's the closest thing we have to a "science" of truth. If discernment is the art and science of discovering the truth through analyzing claims about the truth, then you’d think that in the science-dominated world we live in, we’d have this whole discernment thing figured out. But that isn’t the case. I went to college for physics and only encountered a brief bit about the underlying foundations of how to arrive at a conclusion we hold to be true. And yet, if you listen to the media or watch any number of science shows on TV, we’re told that we’ve figured out all these different things about the universe, how vaccines can save lives, and much more. For that matter, how can we call something misinformation or false without having a proven way of knowing what the truth is? This baffled me at the time.

It turns out that forming clear and absolutely concrete answers to questions of truth isn’t as easy as you might think—certainly not as easy as the mainstream debunkers of the world would have us believe. However, I maintain that there exists a method, a technique, and a process for uncovering the truth, albeit not as straightforward as we may wish. For some questions, yes, we can get really good, solid, and repeatable answers. But absolute truth requires absolute certainty, which we humans just can’t grasp. Only God can claim to know anything with absolute certainty. Despite the complexity of this topic, I believe I have discovered—or rather, rediscovered—an effective method of practical discernment that allows us to answer most questions related to human life. To clarify, our aim isn't to resolve every truth question; rather, it's to establish a shared understanding that enables us to resolve petty differences that hinder our progress.

I found myself questioning everything I believed to be true, knowing that the foundation of almost every belief system, field of science, or other established body of knowledge seemed to be a hazy foundation of assumptions. It was then that I thought that maybe I could codify what I was searching for, a repeatable, organized, and coherent process of discernment, analysis, and truth discovery. I now refer to this process as the Omniological Process, derived from the term Omniology, which combines the terms Omni (everything) and ology (the study of)—the study of all things. A professor wrote a book about Omniology, called OMNIOLOGY: A Unified Approach To The Study Of Everything, which does a pretty good job of describing how all truth is connected in a way that leads to a kind of unified field theory of all truth.

From this discovery came two conclusions that rest at the bottom of everything I know.

First is that the truth is an apparently infinite source of information (called epistemic infinitude)—human beings can make sketches of but can never know with absolute precision (called epistemic humility). Second, any process of discernment, research, or truth discovery can only produce a sketch or theory of what might be true within a range of certainty. From these conclusions, I realized that the best way to reach for the actual truth was to try to approach it from as many angles as possible (called epistemological pluralism). The Omniological Process is based on the idea that while the truth and reality appear to be infinite, almost everything in human life is finite and that if we exhaust all the possible perspectives we can, we’ll eventually find the best sketch of truth possible. This provides us with a level of effective certainty that resembles perfect truth, despite its lack of perfection.

For instance, we can know, with effective certainty, how many pieces of fruit are in the following image—four.

4 apples in a bowl on a table

If we accept certain factual assumptions, the answer remains valid for anyone who can play the game correctly. We define an apple as what we see in the image, with a specific discrete shape that yields a total of four apples. If we delve deeper, we might ask, "What exactly is an Apple, anyway?" Are all apples that shape? Then the effectiveness of the practical discernment results unravels to a certain extent. Here we are in the weeds.

Someone with contempt and arrogance might argue that there are fewer or more than four apples, asserting that anyone who defines them as shown in the image above is a racist. But from a common sense perspective, that’s a position of contempt and bad faith—not playing the game fairly. It confabulates basic logic to assert a logic that only leads to division. And this helps us identify bad faith actors who are more interested in causing division and conflict for their personal gain.

The Omniological Process provides a good and effective method for answering numerous truth-related questions. With this, we can answer crucial questions, like: What is freedom? What is slavery? What is money? What is the rule of law? How can we safeguard our families, communities, and nation from potential subversive moments?

With this foundation, everything I studied to answer the questions about what was happening in our world began to fit into a coherent picture. I began to make more sense of what was really happening. I perceived a glimpse into the carefully concealed plans and purposes of the powerful. These things helped me understand what went wrong and how to fix it. Much later, I heard clues in what Trump talked about that made me suspect he might be a public face of a new and better way for our country and world. I rediscovered the power of family and community, learned how to fix our broken economies by eliminating fractional reserve banks to restore lawful money, and discovered many other things. What I also discovered was that certain powerful forces have exploited the inefficiencies and problems inherent in our seemingly advanced civilization for their own benefit.

One Last Thing, and a Bit on the Future

While I've been writing and developing other projects in addition to the Agenda 47 Explained series, I've also been experimenting with using my limited time to post more on social media.

I’ve rebranded under Just In Stillness, which is a play on my name and the Stillness in the Storm project that I started in 2013.

Sadly, when the censorship hammer came down hard, Stillness in the Storm had to go on life support. I decided to continue posting sparingly on Stillness in the Storm to maintain its existence, and I aspire to resurrect the project in the future. For the time being, the project generates enough revenue to sustain the website, which continues to receive thousands of daily views and serves as a kind of archive for my previous work.

I have a lot more content in mind, and I’m looking forward to developing it. Once the family planning and unpacking are complete, I’ll have more regular time to devote to Substack writing, and I appreciate your patience as paid subscribers.

We’re only days away from yet another history-making event, and no doubt this won’t be the last.

With love,

Justin
