The Freedom Factory

The Freedom Factory’s Natalie Foster conducted an exclusive interview with Jake Rademacher, the Director of the new movie Brothers At War.

Brothers At War is an intimate portrait of an American family during a turbulent time.  Jake Rademacher sets out to understand the experience, sacrifice, and motivation of his two brothers serving in Iraq. The film follows Jake’s exploits as he risks everything-including his life-to tell his brothers’ story.

To film the movie Jake embeds with four combat units in Iraq. Unprecedented access to U.S. and Iraqi combat units take him behind the camouflage curtain with secret reconnaissance troops on the Syrian border, into sniper “Hide Sites” in the Sunni Triangle, through raging machine gun battles with the Iraqi Army.

In a coordinated nationwide demonstration against expansion of government, erosion of Constitutional freedoms, and higher taxes, thousands gathered in protest. The Freedom Factory team covered the Los Angeles demonstration, which occured at the Santa Monica Pier.

The event was a big success, pulled together in just four days by Top Conservatives On Twitter (TCOT) via grassroots social networking. Tools like Twitter and Facebook brought over an hundred people together on a Friday morning to support the broader national protest.

Rather than dumping tea into the Pacific ocean, these modern day patriots ceremonially threw bacon bits over the edge of the pier to signify disgust over pork spending.

A diverse array of people came together in protest:

As the young patriots in the above picture wisely advise us: “No civilization ever taxed itself into prosperity.”
