“The Samurai lived by a code of honor, not unlike the code that you live by. It’s called the Bushido. It was never written down; was always something the Samurai knew, and it was handed down from one warrior to another. One of the tenets of the code is about justice. Not the pounding of a gavel on the bench of some judge who’s been appointed to pass judgment on people by some politician. No, malaka, this concept of justice is what you feel in your bones: to die when it is right and to strike when it is right.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“Dying is not a punishment, except for the manner of how the execution may be carried out. The extinguishment of life itself is not torment. That is why capital punishment is not a punishment at all and does not deter crime.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“The oligarchs who ran the country – and the world – had no principals, no morals, and no Code of Honor. Their indentured servants, the politicians, pretended to have them, but their skills were, just like those of the prostitute who tells her john he just gave her the best orgasm, to appear to have a moral purpose just beyond their self-enrichment. That much was enough to get them through the next election.”

“. Checks and balances had left the building, along with the ghost of Elvis, the U.S. Constitution, Jefferson, Hamilton, and Washington. The transformation from a hypocrisy based façade of government to mob rule was complete.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“If he chose to hire a lawyer to defend himself, whatever money he had would be confiscated as “ill-gotten gains.” Deprived of funds for defense, he’d be held until he pleaded guilty or a public defender went through the motions of a defense and a jury of white people convicted him. The evidence would be his lack of character and failure to participate in his own prosecution, with a few bits of physical evidence manufactured by the prosecuting cops. All the blanks would be filled in with lies.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“Every dollar they saved was worth less with every financial crisis, while the government just printed more money to preserve the stock markets, the financial status of the elites, and the banks who served them.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“The “They” was clear, not a worn-out conspiracy theory or fictional legend. “They” were the oligarchies that ran America, and, thanks to the current state of affairs, “They” no longer needed to hide behind the mouthpieces. The U.S. had been put up for sale, and “They” were the successful bidders.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“Freedom is only the will to do whatever is not restricted by the government. No piece of paper on earth could protect you from their intervention.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“Justice is just a theory. A word for something that doesn’t exist.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“Putting a man’s life to waste is not justice.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“But there is a dark side to humans that lurks in the background, and it’s only revealed if you know where to look. Like a shadow that is not always visible, the dark secrets of these men were just hiding beyond the cursory view of their politically correct appearances.”

“He had no political experience, was fond of spouting baseless conspiracy theories, and the only endeavor in which he had engaged the height not gone bankrupt was not even his own – a reality TV show.”

“A pathological liar, his alternative reality was lie detector proof, and, like Jim Jones, he had amassed an enormous base of followers who believed every lie that came out of his mouth. Outside his presence, his closest advisors referred to him as a “moron” or an “idiot” and he certainly fit that bill. But, with his supporters, his lies suited them just fine.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade

“He had brought his case to the people, like an evangelical preacher, holding massive rallies in all the major cities coast-to-coast, concentrated on the poor rural areas, and people flocked to them wearing his campaign hats and T-shirts and waving American flags and signs bearing his name. His message was simple – America was broken, only he could fix it, and return the US to the fairytale days of the postwar 50s, where everyone had a job, car, house, two kids, and everything they wanted was within their reach. Life would be good again.”

“He had seen enough to know that everyone should have realized by now that the government was run by competing bands of criminals who answered not to the voters, but the powerful oligarchies that controlled them and kept their campaign funds and pockets full.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“. He had never read a book in his life, although he had claimed to have authored two of them. He had the attention span of a gnat, limited to the time it took to sound out a forty-character Tweet, which, even with his limited vocabulary, he often misspelled.”

“Nobody is ever free, even on the outside. Those persons merely had the illusion of freedom. They worked to pay taxes on their income, taxes on everything they consumed until death, and, if they were lucky enough to have accumulated a few dollars they didn’t spend, that would be consumed in taxes on their final exit.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“, the powers that be throughout the centuries have chosen isolation, humiliation, and deprivation – three implements in their torture toolbox. There is nothing more inhumane than caging a human being like an animal and depriving him of air, light, and the company of those he chooses.”
Kenneth Eade, An Evil Trade
“There are those whose lives are linked to us by blood, those whom we choose to be a part of our lives, and those who are chosen by others and forced upon us. The symbiotic production of oxytocin endears some of them to us; the antithesis repels us.”
