“This is from the founding of our country, this is our birth certificate. And we’re letting it slip right through our fingers because a lot of pastors don’t have the testosterone to throw it at you in your face,” explains Command Sgt. Major Dan Page as he reads the Declaration of Independence to his live studio audience in an August 22, 2014 Sheridan Lowrey YouTube video titled, “US President’s & Congress’s Treason EXPOSED by Retired Army Ranger Command Sgt Major Dan Page.” According to Page, a veteran of every major U.S. conflict since Vietnam, “There was a time in this country when pastors wore a military suit underneath of their robe – they were called minutemen. They were the first ones on the battleground, what has happened to us ladies and gentlemen? Where’s it gone? It takes one generation, that’s 50-years about to destroy a nation. I’m going to talk a little bit about that. We are in very, very deep trouble. Very deep trouble.”

With a number of years having passed since Page first delivered his sermons on world government and the end of Western civilization; his warnings have all but fell on deaf ears despite a number of events having taken place mirroring his initial assessments. But it’s what else he said which has yet to take place that is perhaps most concerning of all.

“The Marine Corps is the guardians of America’s freedom and the way they’re changing right now just does not make sense unless it’s intentional to degrade the U.S. military. The Marines are the backbone of our defense here in America,” explains Page in an August 24, 2014 Caravan to Midnight Episode 65 interview with former Coast to Coast AM radio host John B. Wells.

“Now the Marine Corps is the finest, for its size and body of manpower, it is the finest fighting power in the world. So why would you want to change that? Well here is the answer to it. We are going into a global governance whether people like it or not. So, therefore you must destroy the very body that protects the nation,” explains Page. “And the federal government’s only legitimate duty is to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution. That’s the end of their duty. So what they’re doing is they’re degrading that down so that they can invite foreign troops into the U.S. such as Blackwater with contractors. Now the contractors, we use to call them mercenaries. Today they’re called contractors.

“So when I was in Jaboody the secretary of the Army visited us. And, I can’t quote the secretary verbatim but here is what he basically said. He said in the coming years America and the world is going to be transformed into a new global system,” warns Page. “And the only way that you can do that is to degrade the very thing that’s protecting everybody else. Freedom of speech does not protect the Second Amendment; it’s the military and a policeman that protect the Second Amendment. If you degrade them, then you can do with it what you want. So that’s what this whole thing is about, is to destroy the military service that protects our freedom so that when this thing does go down in the near future then you can bring in a coalition of troops or contractors to kind of settle things back the way the political elite want to.”

A 36-year veteran of the St. Louis County Police Department who once famously pushed CNN’s Don Lemon and a group of protestors back during the height of the Ferguson Riots; like many of our Founding Fathers before him Page has paid the price for bringing us the information you read today. With an uncanny ability to see into the future, if it wasn’t for the fact he has revealed his sources we would be talking about the Command Sgt. Major in terms of the supernatural.

“I want to turn to California Democratic Congresswoman Sydney Kamlager-Dove. She represents a portion of Los Angeles County including some of the neighborhoods, some neighborhoods rather in the City of Los Angeles,” explains Meet the Press Now’s Gabe Gutierrez in a June 10, 2025 NBC News YouTube video titled, “Trump is manufacturing a ‘dangerous spectacle’ in Los Angeles: Calif. Democratic Congresswoman.”

“I want to play a little bit of what your colleague Rep. Nanette Barragan (D-CA) said on this program yesterday,” explains Gutierrez as NBC rolls the tape for the viewers at home. “This is the president escalating a situation to try to make it as tense as possible. I think this is his step trying to get to martial law,” explains Rep. Barragan. “Trying to be the dictator that he wants to be, it’s very dangerous.”

“Do you agree with her?” asks Gutierrez as the interview turns to Rep. Kamlager-Dove.

“I am certainly concerned that he is walking up to the line of martial law. But I also believe that he has manufactured this very dangerous spectacle to keep us from talking about all that happened last week and what’s in front of us now,” explains Kamlager-Dove. “We have a rescission package of ten billion dollars in cuts that Congress voted actually to support. We had the big fallout between Donald Trump and Elon Musk just last week that got super nasty. That was a divorce without a prenup.

“And we’re still talking about the $880-billion dollars in cuts to Medicaid that are actually going to kill seniors and, you know, folks with disabilities and young people,” explains Kamlager-Dove. “Those are real conversations that Americans want to have and instead we’re talking about this president invading Los Angeles.”

With an astonishing level of normalcy bias on display unfortunately indicative of the vast majority of the American people; it is anything but normal to have paramilitary operations conducted on the streets of L.A. as we instead discuss the made for TV fallout of Trump and Elon Musk.

“People are scared,” explains Unión del Barrio’s Lupe Carrasco Cardona in a June 30, 2025 MSNBC YouTube video titled, “INSIDE: How a community organization is fighting back as Los Angeles ICE raids ramp up.”

“People are scared, people are not working, people aren’t going grocery shopping, people are sending their kids to go to work. It’s really bad; this is almost like COVID level, like pandemic, beginning pandemic kind of level,” explains Cardona. “Where we’re seeing people not being able to make rent because they’re afraid to go to work, sending their kids to go do vendor work for them; yeah, it’s really sad.”

“Even as we’re standing here, I’m watching the three of you. Your head is almost like on a swivel, all of you. You’re looking around the parking lot,” explains NBC News’ Jacob Soboroff. “What are you looking for?”

“Yeah, well I’m looking for the tried and true like undercover vehicles that these masked kidnappers are using,” explains Unión del Barrio’s Chavo Romero. “And we’re saying masked kidnappers because we have no idea if they’re agents, some federal agents or they’re the mercenaries that are in town. We have no idea, so we just say anything that looks and matches what we’re looking for, we’re vigilant.”

“And, so that’s part of the terrorization, Alicia,” explains Soboroff as the report continues. “That members of the community don’t know often times who these people are rolling up to Home Depot parking lots or, you know, the agricultural fields a couple weeks ago. Or you name it, wherever they show up. The other thing I want to really emphasize and underline; Chavo, Lupe, everybody there has other jobs. They have day jobs. So, the two women that you saw in the clip there are educators. And they were going off to the schools. I know its summer school, but going off to work at school. Chavo works in the health care industry, community health.

“They’re doing this because they care about Los Angeles; they’re doing this because they care about their neighbors,” explains Soboroff. “They’re handing out those exact fliers because they want people to understand what the vehicles look like when they roll up in the community – driving around every single morning for the past 23 going on 24-days in this unprecedented effort by the federal government.”

“Well, you work in education. You work in health care; you also understand the devastating impact this can have on a community,” explains MSNBC’s Alicia Menendez. “You talk, Jacob, about the masked agents there. There’s reporting, I’m sure you’ve seen it of people posing as federal agents amid these raids. Your sense, speaking with Unión del Barrio, like how concerned are these groups about the fact that they referenced there that they can no longer tell who is ICE and who is not?”

“I think it’s one of the top concerns,” explains Soboroff. “They, you know, you hear language like bounty hunters, or vigilantes or mercenaries. The reason that people on the street are using this language is not to be derogatory towards federal agents; they sincerely, genuinely feel like they do not know who is out there coming after them. And coming after people who are in their community; and there have been arrests of people who were impersonating federal agents, trying to commit crimes against a vulnerable population here in the city.”

Flashing back to the warnings of former KGB agent Yuri Bezmenov on the promise vs. the reality of the future Marxist-Leninist America; one has to think the American people had one idea in mind when electing Trump to a second term versus the reality of what he has actually delivered. With joint police task forces across the country bringing law enforcement agencies collectively under one umbrella, a police state is quickly emerging not unlike the Gestapo of Nazi Germany. Predicting the subversion of both law enforcement and the U.S. military en route to trampling our Second Amendment rights, Pages warning of mercenaries enforcing a dystopian nightmare in the U.S. is a distinctly un-American reality which hits all too close to home in 2025 today. With the Command Sgt. Major highlighting “a long train of abuses and usurpations” while ultimately making his way to absolute despotism, remember “this is from the founding of our country, this is our birth certificate. And we’re letting it slip through our fingers because a lot of pastors don’t have the testosterone to throw it at you in your face.”
