“It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires
in people’s minds.” – Samuel Adams

Because a writ of replevin had been issued regarding the Dartmouth, Thate made a quick “look see” to confirm that the Dartmouth’s location had not been changed. Everything was the same, the Dartmouth was surrounded by a couple of vehicles and a trailer so as to discourage the rightful owners of the Dartmouth from recovering their property.
Thate then proceeded to go to meet his lunch buddies. On the way he received a call from a Deputy Sheriff who informed him that she was on the Jason Davis property ready to carry out the seizure of Dartmouth. Thate returned directly to the Dartmouth’s location.
With the Deputy present, Thate entered the property to find, in addition to the access blocking vehicles, that the Dartmouth’s towing bar’s doughnut had a locking device installed.
It was the first time Thate had been up close to the boat in years. It was obvious during the forced inactivity and the isolation from Tea Party members, that no effort had been made to secure the Dartmouth from the elements.
The presence of people on Davis’ property prompted a neighbor to walk over to inquire as to what was going on. It turned out that the neighbor had Davis’ cell phone number in his phone. The neighbor called Davis and the Deputy spoke to Davis using the neighbor’s phone. Davis was in St. Augustine. When Davis learned that the Dartmouth was going to be seized, the Deputy was able to get Davis to return to his property and cease any resistance.
We don't know what she said to him, but we can report that he returned to the property in about 40 minutes and cooperated by moving the vehicles out of the way and by trying to unlock the towing restraint. It seems the key was misplaced. This gave the Tea Party’s towing crew time to adjust to the short notice Thate had gave them.

As Providence would have it, the tow truck arrived at exactly the right time.
The only thing preventing the removal of the Dartmouth was the locking device on the tow bar.
Magically the towing crew produced the proper tool for cutting it off.

Davis’ cooperation extended to his raising of the forward leveling jacks (a last step required before the boat can be made mobile).
The Dartmouth arrived safely at its “dry dock berth” at the Smith Farm. It is here that the complete restoration will take place. The work is expected to be complete for the Dartmouth’s appearance at the Castillo de San Marcos in St. Augustine for the 250th anniversary on July 4, 2026. David Heimbold, SATP Media Chairman, has secured the required permit for the celebration.
The inevitable seizure by the Sheriff was going to happen on May 14, 2026 with or without Davis’ cooperation. The fact that he chose to cooperate made for a smooth release of possession. The execution of the writ of replevin took about 2 hours. It started with the Deputy’s call to Chairman Thate and ended with the docking of the Dartmouth at the Smith farm.

In a separate action, Jason Davis also took the action necessary to reverse the DMV registration from himself back to the St. Augustine Tea Party, Inc. on May 14, 2026.

When things flow together so perfectly, Mr Heimbold likes to say, “It’s a God thing.”

On May 5, 2026, a final ruling was issued regarding a case involving the St. Augustine Tea Party, Inc. as Plaintiff and Jason Davis as Defendant, filed in the 7th Circuit Court in and for Putnam County, Florida. At issue was the determination of who was the lawful owner of the Dartmouth. Davis has possession, the St. Augustine Tea Party, Inc. has the vested title.
The Dartmouth is a well-known iconic replica of the ship... Dartmouth of Boston Tea Party 1773 fame. The Dartmouth is a parade float and stage from which the Tea Party movement and then later the populist America First movement have been promoted. Over the past 16 years the Dartmouth has made numerous appearances in the “Historic Distinct” of St. Augustine, Florida. Well known Republicans spoke from her decks when they pretended to be populous candidates. Pam Bondi, Rick Scott and Marco Rubio to name a few, The Dartmouth’s most extensive trip was to Washington DC in 2010.
According to founding members of the Saint Augustine Tea Party (SATP), a change in leadership caused a shift from a grassroots populous focus to a partisan political agenda. Long term Tea Party members from five counties stopped attending one of the last standings, extremely active Tea Parties in the state of Florida. Bimonthly meetings ended in late 2023 and the Dartmouth stopped being deployed. Needed maintenance was not provided and the Dartmouth was allowed to rot while on the property of Jason Davis.

According to founding members of the Saint Augustine Tea Party (SATP), a change in leadership caused a shift from a grassroots populous focus to a partisan political agenda. Long term Tea Party members from five counties stopped attending one of the last standings, extremely active Tea Parties in the state of Florida. Bimonthly meetings ended in late 2023 and the Dartmouth stopped being deployed. Needed maintenance was not provided and the Dartmouth was allowed to rot while on the property of Jason Davis.
Starting in March of 2025 the owners of the Dartmouth requested that the float be moved to where it could be serviced and from which it could be deployed. Instead on April 11, 2025, Davis transferred the DMV registration from the St. Augustine Tea Party, Inc. to himself. After mutual friends failed to persuade Davis to alter his actions, a criminal complaint was filed with the St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office. Title was vested in the corporation and Davis had no connection with the corporation. False information had to be provided in order for the DMV to transfer registration to the Defendant. Retired law enforcement sources report, it is common for criminal prosecutors to look to civil courts for direction in matters of “He said, She said” situations. So it was in this state of affairs.
On July 28, 2025, the St. Augustine Tea Party, Inc. filed a civil lawsuit. The Defendant proceeded with a strategy of delays. Davis’ efforts plus the inherent delays within the legal system delayed the trial to March 2, 2026. After the Plaintiff submitted their evidence, the Defendant presented the court with a huge amount of purported "evidence" in the form of a tabulated notebook which the Judge rejected as irrelevant in the span of about a minute or so. The Judge then ordered a continuance suggesting to the Defendant that it would provide him time to procure evidence germane to the issues at hand, demonstrating that both sides of the question would be considered. The trial continued on April 9, 2026. Again the Defendant submitted a lot of opinion as evidence. After the Defendant rested, the Judge asked the Defendant pertinent questions about the title issue. Davis’ answers did not appear to help his case. The Judge then announced that he was taking the matter under advisement and stated that his ruling would be based on the law. The Defendant had an invited audience of about 10 friends who were in attendance. Some of them would later claim on social media that Jason’s presentation was devastating to the Plaintiff’s cause.
Conclusion:
The thirteen page finding of the court, made available May 9, 2026 at the Putnam County Clerk of Court’s office, provided a case history, findings of fact, and a legal analyses. Nowhere in the court’s finding was the Defendant’s claims upheld, including the Defendant's claim of vindication of the fraudulent criminal filing at the DMV. The conclusion was the Plaintiff’s motion for final “Judgment of Replevin” was granted and that the Defendant surrender possession of the Dartmouth to the Plaintiff. “THE CLERK OF COURT SHALL ENTER A WRIT OF REPLEVIN UPON THE PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST, DIRECTING THE SHERIFF TO PLACE PLAINTIFF IN POSSESSION OF...THE DARTMOUTH. At his own expense, Defendant shall transfer the trailer registration back into the name of the St. Augustine Tea Party, Inc. within 10 days of the date of this order”. A Tea Party source reports that the necessary request and fees were paid on May 8, 2026.
The wheels of Justice turn slowly...Politics did not prevail. The Dartmouth stays in Tea Party hands.

Some believe the United States and its military are on the ropes and Iran is running circles around us. Others believe that Donald Trump has been outfoxed by the Iranian leaders. Some believe that Trump is backing down because he has extended the naval blockade instead of bombing them back into the Stone Age. Even Sunday morning pundits have been quick to declare that Trump doesn't have the killer instinct. That he will not finish them off.

I am convinced they have spread out over Iran to locate and retrieve Iran's uranium when ordered to do the take down, even if it means sending our boys in to take custody of this radioactive material. I am also convinced that we are looking for those who believe they are the ones in charge, so that we can take them down when the order comes. And I do believe we have a master plan to bring this war to an end and this regime to its knees. But first, we will bankrupt them economically. In the end, we will defeat them.
Most of us, including myself, want to live in a peaceful world, but unfortunately, we have bad actors we have to deal with, or we can choose to ignore them until it's too late. Fortunately, this president has decided to act. Many have underestimated Trump before. Many have had to eat crow. If we had peaceful leaders and people were free of abuse and oppression, yes, the world would be a better place to live in. Until then, we must get the following message out. We must join forces for peace.

The Truth
The Truth about Communists and their Killing Methods
The New World Order (NWO) globalists have selected the Communist model to control the world population.
TCCR Staff Screenshot
Karl Marx did not inherently propose genocide, but autocratic leaders that followed often used it to gain centralized control. Today, the contemporary NWO globalists call for massive reductions in population. Here is how their Communist collaborators execute it in America:
1. They kill the unborn with Planned Parenthood;
2. They kill children with mandatory experimental vaccinations using the COVID farce;
3. They willfully infect the elderly with COVID and then provide health protocols that leads to death;
4. They create violent environments which kill a disproportionate number of black Americans;
5. They promote open borders to promote civil unrest and also to propagate addictive drugs to kill the unsuspecting victims;
6. They promote never ending wars, the ultimate killing machine.

Freedom is the Means Prosperity is the Result
By Roderick T. Beaman
Why do proponents, both Left & Right, of various types of government actions, always tout what it's going to do for us economically? Why isn't the debate about what it will do for our freedom?

Prosperity should not be our goal. Freedom should be. Prosperity is the inevitable result of freedom.
It's why slavery, socialism, communism and fascism were all doomed. Freedom should be our first concern.
As the great Rush Limbaugh once said, government doesn't solve problems; people solve problems. The best government can do is provide the milieu for prosperity to result and that milieu is freedom. Plain & simple.
