Radical honesty — our first act of politics

Where this project actually stands

Every political organization asks for your trust. We start by telling you the whole truth about ourselves. Updated September 17, 2026.

A project in formation

We are a political organizing and branding project — not yet a legally organized political party under Illinois or federal law. When that changes, you’ll read it here first.

No candidates

We have no candidates, and our founder is not a candidate for any public office. No one here will pretend otherwise.

No money — none

We accept no donations, dues, or contributions of any kind. If that ever changes, it happens only on counsel-reviewed, fully compliant rails, announced here first.

A permanent wall

This project is separate from the Outpost app and from Outpost Civic Education NFP — non-partisan civic tools that take no part in party activity.

The founder’s aspiration, stated as an aspiration: he believes public service is the highest use of a citizen’s energy and may seek public office one day — that is an aspiration, not a plan, and it is undecided.

Who we are

Why we exist

The soundbite first. Open any one of them for the whole thing — nothing is hidden, it is just not all shouted at once.

Mission

The Republic returns to the People.

We organize Americans of every walk of life — not left, not right — around a written covenant, the We The People Charter, so that government answers to the governed again.

Purpose

A lawful political home.

For citizens who believe the Constitution governs every form of power, not government’s alone; to publish our doctrine openly; and, when the law and the people are ready, to carry the work through every legitimate channel the Constitution provides.

Vision

Liberty · Truth · Unity.

A national renewal in which representation outgrows party machines, public trust is rebuilt on transparency, and the coming generations inherit a freer, stronger republic than the one we found.

The cornerstone

Capitalism with a Constitution.

Free markets for almost everything, with the systems a free people cannot risk held in public trust.

  1. Free enterprise is the default.
  2. Property is a right, not a revocable privilege.
  3. Monopoly is not the free market’s friend. It is its executioner.
  4. A narrow public trust for what the nation cannot risk.
  5. The Constitution governs every form of power, not government’s alone.

How we act

Peaceful. Lawful. Together.

Speech, assembly, petition, the vote — and the oldest economic voice a free people has: choosing where their money and their labor do not go.

The Leisure Strike — stated clearly

A peaceful, voluntary pause of economic participation, sustained until the government meets the movement’s stated demands. Citizens stop fueling the machine — and go live.

The honest fine print
  • Voluntary, always. Nobody is pressured, shamed, or targeted for not participating.
  • Peaceful and lawful only. No blocking, no intimidation, no interference with anyone else’s work or movement.
  • Know your employment reality. Most American workers are at-will; purely political work stoppages are generally not legally protected the way union actions can be. Spending-only counts.
  • The right is real. Peaceful boycotts are protected speech and association (NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co., 458 U.S. 886 (1982)).

Get involved — the honest way

Follow the movement.

Membership and chapters open only when the legal formation is complete. Nothing here will ever take your money or your signature before the rails are real.
