The Law of Iron

 

 

The following remarkable interview occurred this week between Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller and CNN’s Jake Tapper. The discussion involved the capture of Nicholas Maduro of Venezuela, the fate of its enormous resources, and growing imperialistic intentions targeting the island of Greenland.



Mr. Miller in the interview stated that one of the largest naval armadas in history had blockaded Venezuela. He dismissed “international niceties” and questions about the legality of the capture of Maduro, and made the following assertions.   


  • “We live in a world, in the real world, Jake, that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world from the beginning of time.” 
  • “By definition, we are in charge because we have the United States military stationed outside the country. We set the terms and conditions. We have a complete embargo on all of their oil and their ability to do commerce. For them to do commerce they need our permission. For them to be able to run an economy they need our permission.” 


After declaring in essence that might makes right, Mr. Miller made the following statements regarding the Danish colony of Greenland: 


  • “It is the formal position of the US government… that Greenland should be part of the United States.” 
  • The United States “is NATO” and in order to fulfill its treaty obligations it must have Greenland. 
  • “By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? What is the basis of their territorial claim? What is their basis of having Greenland as a colony?” 
  • “Obviously Greenland should be part of the United States.” 
  •  “Nobody is going to fight the United States, militarily, over the future of Greenland.” 


It was subsequently confirmed by the White House that it was considering all options, including military force, to seize Greenland.[i] For its part, Denmark has advised that it will shoot first and ask questions later if America attempts to invade its colony.[ii] 


To many, this abrasive rhetoric is bewildering. What? America is going to invade … (checks notes) … Greenland? 


Administration officials claim the menacing posture is simply “the art of the deal”. Trump wants Greenland for strategic reasons and for its rare earth minerals, and thinks military threats will help the acquisition. But this claim only raises more questions. What friend demands another friend’s resources at gunpoint? What kind of “deal” is obtained by threats of war? Where is this headed? What does it mean? 


FOUNDATIONS 


As this website has often discussed, in concept America was founded on an absolute hatred for tyranny. 


The Declaration of Independence itself is a litany of complaints against the high-handed imperialism of King George III. Here are just a few you should consider and contemplate.   

 

  • Grievance 7: "He has endeavored to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners..." 
  • Grievance 14: "For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us." 
  • Grievance 15: "For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States." 
  • Grievance 16: "For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world." 
  • Grievance 17: "For imposing taxes on us without our consent." 
  • Grievance 18: "For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Jury trial." 
  • Grievance 19: "For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offenses.” 
  • Grievance 24: "He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people." 


The Founding Fathers and their countrymen hated the imperialism of King George III. They hated his tariffs, his taxes and his control of their trade. They hated how he dictated to them from across the ocean, and demanded their resources. Thomas Jefferson called him “a plundering tyrant.” 


The colonists loathed how King George passed laws which he pretended legitimized his cruelty and oppression. “I’m acting according to law!”, said King George, “its you who are the law breakers!” 


But there are higher laws than King George, and higher Powers than earthly rulers. The colonists appealed to these higher laws that are forever above all earthly tyrannical laws. The Declaration of Independence states: 


When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. 


We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…[iii] 


Human laws may authorize theft, but they cannot supersede that eternal law which declares, “Thou Shalt not steal”. Human laws may legitimize murder, but there can be no immunity from the bar of God, which declares “Thou shalt not kill.” 


One of the grievances of the colonies was that King George was shielding British troops from accountability for the murder of colonists. Britain made its soldiers above, and immune from, the civil law. That is fascinating. 

Is there a modern equivalent? As checks and balances are broken down and the deterioration of the principles of the Republic become metastatic, one would expect there must be. And astonishingly, according to a recent statement by Vice President Vance, ICE agents operate pursuant to federal law alone and have “absolute immunity.”[iv] 


The precedent here is very simple. You have a federal law enforcement official engaging in federal law enforcement action – that’s a federal issue. That guy is protected by absolute immunity. – J. D. Vance 


If you read that too fast, go back and read it again slower. 


Vance is not just arguing there should not be civil accountability for the specific ICE agent who shot Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. Vance is asserting that state laws do not apply to federal agents like ICE at all. According to Vance, federal agents, ICE agents, IRS agents, soldiers, etc. are all immune from civil penalties like state laws against murder.[v] And that, folks, is textbook King George-ism. 


If King George did not hold his soldiers accountable for wrongs against the colonists, the colonists are incapable of doing so because British soldiers are immune from colonial penalties. 


It ought to raise the hair on your arms. 

 

SPEAKS LIKE A DRAGON 


There is only one way to make sense of it all. 


The Bible says that America begins lamb-like. It comes up out of the new world, out of the land (Revelation 13:11); it is not one of the nations that came out of the waters of the old world (Daniel 7). It is a place of refuge for the woman who fled from the persecution of the Papacy. But the Bible says that for all of these positive attributes it will speak like a dragon – Revelation 13:11. Since a nation speaks through its legislative bodies, the Bible reveals that we will see many oppressive and even imperialistic laws today and in the future. 


You will never hear this from big-box Christianity with its repetitive, hypnotic 7-11 music and its near illiteracy of the Bible. But the Bible warns that the benevolent mighty power which was the envy of the world will change. It will “speak like a dragon” – Revelation 13:11. What does that mean? Who or what is “the dragon”? And how will America speak like it? 


The dragon, the Roman empire mentioned in Revelation 12, and the empire which held dominion at the time of Christ’s life on this earth, was not merely a pagan power. No, it was an imperialistic power. Writing of the same power, the prophet Daniel saw the great iron teeth of the Roman empire. 


After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns – Daniel 7:7. 


Daniel saw its cruelty. It’s force. It’s imperialism. He saw the law of iron. And in declaring that the lamb-like beast will “speak like a dragon”, the Bible accurately predicted the developments of today. 


Stephen Miller also unknowingly referenced Bible prophecy about the lamb-like beast: it will control buying and selling. It will control or coerce whole countries and impose its will on their economies. It will “causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name” – Revelation 13:16, 17. The Bible prophesies that America will impose restrictions on commerce, and impose the mark of the beast on the whole world. 


Miller boasts that Venezuela cannot run its economy or do commerce without the consent of America, and that sure sounds like Revelation 13. But this control is small scale compared to what is coming. Palantir. Google. Microsoft. Alphabet. Visa. Mastercard. Hosts of other American and international companies are involved in building the global digital prison prophesied in Revelation 13. 


You need to wake up and realize that Bible prophecy is true, and the only way to make sense of this mad world is by the Word of God. It is given to you for your sake because the God of the universe wants you personally to understand what is happening, and what is about to happen. 


Seizing the oil of a sovereign nation but leaving its communist government intact. Demanding Greenland. Economic controls. Absolute immunity. There is much more to come.

PROPHECY BEING FULFILLED: HERITAGE FOUNDATION CALLS FOR SUNDAY LAWS IN 2026

By Wings of Liberty • February 17, 2026
Part 1 When the Heritage Foundation proposed to penalize employers who operated their businesses on Sunday by requiring them to pay workers time-and-a-half wages, thereby “encouraging” Sunday closing, there were Bible prophecy watchers who took note. The proposal was detailed in the document entitled, “Project 2025”, and was released to coincide with the election which would culminate in the election of Donald Trump as President. On January 8, 2026, the Heritage Foundation released a further and much more explicit document calling for the enforcement of Sunday blue laws for the good of the nation. The document appeals to lawmakers to “re-establish a shared day of rest for American workers” and to “protect Sunday as a day of rest, reflection, and family time.” The proposal can be read here . If you think the Heritage Foundation is irrelevant, think again. Tom Homan, Russel Vought, John Ratcliffe, Jonathan Berry, Karolyn Leavitt, Brendan Carr, Stephen Navarro, Stephen Miller, and many more, are all from the Heritage Foundation. Newsweek stated in March 2025 that at least 31 people linked to Project 2025 had been given government roles. i In addition, nearly 30% of Republican members of Congress employ at least one former Heritage staffer. That’s a whole lot of influence. That same Heritage Foundation claims that Sunday blue laws are necessary for the good of America so that it can prosper for the next 250 years. It is calling on government, the same government that has so many of its members in official positions, to compel the observance of Sunday. But Sunday is a common workday. It is one of the “six days thou shalt labor”, according to the Bible in Exodus 20:9. Yes, most of Christianity honors it as the “Lord’s Day”, but it’s the papacy who claims to have the power to change the Sabbath from the seventh day to the first day of the week, ii and keeping Sunday sacred is honoring “lord god the Pope”. But that is not stopping so-called Christians from calling to impose their dogmas on American society using state power. Make no mistake – this quickly growing relationship between the church and state is a fulfilment of Bible prophecy. Religious leaders are wooing the state, and the state is wooing them. Trump showered religious leaders with remarkable promises in order to get re-elected: He would restore Christianity’s influence in American public life and protect religious freedoms; He would bring God back into the public square, and reverse the decline of religion under the Biden administration; He committed to specific policy actions, including establishing a task force to combat “anti-Christian bias,” supporting school vouchers for religious schools, ending the contraception mandate from Obamacare, and appointing anti-abortion judges to the federal courts, including the Supreme Court; He promised to repeal the Johnson Amendment, allowing churches to endorse political candidates without losing tax-exempt status; He promised to defend Christian symbols like the cross; He emphasized alignment with evangelical priorities, such as opposing transgender participation in women’s sports, supporting prayer in schools, and displaying the Ten Commandments in public classrooms; and He framed his campaign as a "righteous crusade" to restore America as "one nation under God," appealing to conservative Christians by portraying himself as a protector of their values and a tool for national spiritual revival. He did not stop there. At a Turning Point USA event in July 2024, Trump informed the gatherers that if they vote for him in 2024 election, "in four years, you don't have to vote again." iii He said, "Christians, get out and vote, just this time.” "I love you Christians. I'm a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote.” "In four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote." You won't have to do it anymore... We'll have it fixed so good, you're not going to have to vote." Now, and somewhat parenthetically, you would think that any candidate’s election promise to end all elections once in office would be absolutely fatal to that candidate’s chances. In any sane world, that would create alarm bells that would shatter the ear drums of a people who value their liberty and their right to self-determination. But you would be wrong. And we do not live in a sane world. Sanity got left fifty stops back. The political abuse of the left has created an unquenchable thirst for power in Christian circles. They are done with turning the other cheek. Climate change, abortion, gay marriage? Atheism, secularism, transgenderism? It’s payback time. Forget, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. No. That is finished. Now its, “Do unto others as they did unto you.” That’s not the golden rule, folks. That’s the law of iron. “You made our kids to listen to your trannies in the library? Now your kids will listen to our priests and pastors. Ever hear of eternal hell? Well, you will. Tax dollars funded your woke public school programs, now they will fund our Old Time Religion.” “You aborted millions of babies? Now your women will be chained in the kitchen, unable to vote, iv and they will make baby after baby after baby.” “You said there was no God? Now you will go to church instead of Walmart, because guess what? Walmart is closed on the Lord’s Day.” The Heritage Foundation claims forcing people not to work on Sunday will save America, but forced religious observance has always created oppression and hypocrisy, which is why America dispensed with it at its founding, and constitutionalized a strict separation of church and state. In Europe, and later in the American colonies, cruelty and oppression marked the enforcement of religious laws by the state. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion”, states the First Amendment. They had seen the oppression firsthand. Enforced idleness also breeds crime. Idleness. Abuse. Dissipation. Gainful work that might be done is criminalized and persecuted on the basis of religion. Crime stats rise significantly on the weekends because people are idle. The Heritage Foundation hides the cruelty in its proposals. They omit the ugly and tyrannical result of their compulsory Sunday laws. Civil laws impose punishments for their breach. Historically, people who worked on Sunday were fined and imprisoned for breach of blue laws. They ended up on chain gains, imprisoned, and executed. Eventually, the Bible states that all who will not accept this “mark” of the authority of the beast, Sunday sacredness, will be prohibited from buying and selling, and condemned to death – Revelation 13:15. The beast system is being built to impose the mark of the beast. Even secular non-religious people call the digital cage being constructed around us “the beast system”. Bible prophecy, so long ignored, so long doubted, is being fulfilled.

THE MAN OF SIN: THE PAPAL CLAIM TO DIVINITY

By Wings of Liberty • January 18, 2026
As ecumenical dialogue sweeps the planet and the Protestant denominations return to their mother, as Revelation 17 prophesied, we wish to remind the remaining Protestants on the fence of the history of the Reformation: please remember your history, and who you are thinking of going back to. At the heart of the Reformation, is the issue of sola scriptura. The Bible is the Word of God. It is the sole rule of faith. The Papacy has always put itself above the Word of God. Like the serpent of old, it says, “hath God said?”, and insinuates itself between man and God. The Pope “opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” – 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Nothing has changed in the Papacy. The change is in Protestantism. Please consider where you are going before it is forever too late.

FAKE MONEY, FAKE SABBATH

By Wings of Liberty • December 21, 2025
FAKE MONEY, FAKE SABBATH Everyone knows it is a crime to print fake money, or to use it, also known as “passing it off”, as legal tender. If you want to go to jail fast, print fake money and give it to your buddies for their trips to 7/11. Why does the government get so bent out of shape if you make your own money? Because that’s their exclusive domain. The Constitution (Article 1, section 8) says that only Congress has the power to print money. And boy are they doing a lot of it! 38 Trillion of it in fact, and counting, and they don’t want any competition from civilians. Yes, if there’s anything left in the Constitution that the federal government actually takes seriously it’s the right to print money! The Bible says that we are to render to Caesar what is Caesar’s – Matthew 22:21. There is no doubt that regulating money is primarily the domain of government. Similar to ancient Rome, it has the faces of it's leaders on it. American money also bears the Great Seal of the United States, featuring the coat of arms on one side, and the so-called Eye of Providence on the other, a symbol which bears uncanny resemblance to the Eye of Horus in the rites of ancient Egypt, as well as the All-Seeing Eye in occult practices. God, the Creator and eternal sovereign of the universe, also has an exclusive domain, and he’s even more jealous about His authority than Caesar. Caesar has been delegated temporary oversight (by God) of civil government while this earth remains. But God has always retained sovereignty over religious matters. His domain is itemized in the first four commandments of the Decalogue, separated and enumerated on a separate table of stone to show unmistakably that this is the Creator’s exclusive domain. As part of humanity’s obligations to the Creator, God declares that the seventh day of the week is His Sabbath, and He blessed it as such. The Sabbath predates the fall of humanity – Genesis 2:1-3. It is the sign of His creative power – Exodus 20:11. It is the sign of His sanctifying power – Exodus 31:13; Hebrews 4:9, 10. The seventh day is “the Sabbath of the Lord thy God” – Exodus 20:10; Mark 2:28. God has exclusive jurisdiction over the Sabbath. It bears the great seal of the Creator – His name – the LORD; His title – Creator; His jurisdiction – heaven and earth – Exodus 20:11. God is far more jealous over His Sabbath than Congress is over money printing. The government will throw you in jail if you help it print money. But the Bible says that those who attempt to change the words of the Most High will be destroyed – Revelation 22:19. The Founding Fathers of America believed in the separation of church and state. But there has arisen new kings today “who know not Joseph”, nor the blessings that Providence bestowed on this great land in the past. The forces which are running America into the ground through debt will also establish a counterfeit Sabbath. Sunday sacredness will be exalted, and passed off to the public as the genuine article in much the same way any common counterfeiter makes fake Benjamins. If Congress jealously guards the right to print money, does it not think the God of the universe will jealously guard His Sabbath from counterfeiters? But that is what Sunday sacredness is – it is a counterfeit. It is the mark of the Papacy, and the sign of its authority. It is the Roman Catholic Papacy which boasts to have changed the law of God – it admits it is a counterfeiter. The Convert’s Catechism of Catholic Doctrine by Reverend Peter Giermann states the following: “ Question: Which is the Sabbath day? Answer : Saturday is the Sabbath day. Question: Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday? Answer: We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church in the Council of Laodicea transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday.” The Reverend Steven Keenan’s Doctrinal Catechism says similar: “ Question: Have you any other way of proving that the Church has power to institute festivals of precept? Answer: Had she not such power, she could not have done that in which all modern religionists agree with her; she could not have substituted the observance of Sunday, the first day of the week, for the observance of Saturday, the seventh day; a change for which there is no Scriptural authority.” There are many indicators which demonstrate that powerful forces are pushing American society toward a union of church and state and the imposition of Sunday rest laws on the populace. Jesuit-educated Erika Kirk, the new president of Turning Point USA, has given an interview where she laments the loss of Sunday blue laws, and has stated that society must be “retrained”. i On November 13, 2025, the Michigan House of Representatives passed House Resolution 222 which officially declares November 23, 2025, as “Christ the King Sunday”. Christian Nationalists today want the same thing Pius XI wanted when he wrote his encyclical Quas Primas in 1925 (which is referenced in the Michigan resolution), and created the original Catholic Feast of Christ the King Sunday. They want a union of church and state. The Michigan resolution was sponsored by Republican state Representative and Catholic, Josh Schriver, who also sponsored a resolution in September 2025 to honor Pope Leo XIV upon his election as pope. ii The White House has issued another press release honoring another Catholic holiday. First it honored Lent, and encouraged Christians to observe Lent, which is a festival entirely devoid of biblical basis. Now it has honored the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. iii The executive branch of government has declared that, “For nearly 250 years, Mary has played a distinct role in our great American story”, and “As we approach 250 years of glorious American Independence, we acknowledge and give thanks, with total gratitude, for Mary’s role in advancing peace, hope, and love in America and beyond our shores.” The attribution of God’s blessing and protection over America to Mary is idolatry, and blasphemy. Papist Jonathan Berry, architect of Project 2025’s Sunday provisions, has been ratified as Solicitor of Labor. The Department of Labor has wasted no time in moving toward a unification of church and state. It is hosting regular prayer services where federal employees are encouraged to pray and sing hymns. iv Berry has stated his intention to restore Sunday sacredness in America and use his civil authority as Solicitor of Labor to punish transgressors of Sunday rest laws. v Sunday laws are coming. A global conversation has begun and it will grow until it becomes the dominant issue on this planet. Everyone on earth will pick a side. On one side is the Creator of the universe, and His pledge to “write His laws in our hearts and in our minds – Jeremiah 31:31-33. To make all things new. He says, “Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.” On the other side is the ecumenical movement, the Papacy, the civil and apostate powers of government, and their false Sabbath, the eminent pagan day of the Sun. You will decide where you stand. ________________________________ i https://www.youtube.com/shorts/2HjvrMaHnlw ii https://www.wingsofliberty.net/michigan-house-of-representatives-pass-resolution-to-establish-papal-holiday iii https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/2025/12/presidential-message-on-the-feast-of-the-immaculate-conception/ iv https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/12/politics/department-of-labor-hosts-first-prayer-service-emulating-regular-pentagon-events v https://www.wingsofliberty.net/copy-of-the-curse-of-church-and-state-part-3-liberty-threatened
