What does Minnesota have in common with ancient Egypt? Both countries have a great river at their center. They may also have a political connection thanks to the mythology of Freemasonry. Keeping this in mind, ICE’s extreme focus on Minnesota takes on an unwelcome significance.

After reading my argument, some might decide the significance is debatable. However, I think it makes sense in light of the proposals coming out of Washington D.C., not to mention the ongoing attacks on citizens. Rational explanations can’t explain any of this.
This article is a Traditionally-minded analysis. It’s justified by the American administration’s Traditional madness. However, I could be completely wrong. In that case, you could consider it an entertaining diversion.
Differences Between Egypt and the United States
There are some important geographical differences between Egypt and the United States. In ancient Egypt, the River belonged to the entire country. The Nile was Egypt and Egypt was the Nile. But in the United States, the Mississippi River defines the country in a different way, mainly through commerce.
The River is crucial to American shipping and transport. However, the majority of Americans rarely think of it in a strategic sense, or in any sense at all. Here I would like to focus instead on the River’s political meaning.
I base my analysis on what I know about Ancient Egypt’s reverence for the Nile, as well as the ancient world’s reverence for the great rivers of antiquity.
What Does Ancient Egypt Have to do With American Politics?
The Mississippi flows south along the entire measure of the United States. Likewise, the Nile travels the entire length of Egypt. Unlike the Mississippi, the Nile travels from the south of Egypt to its delta in the North.
All of the land within the boundaries of ancient Egypt was related in some way to the River. However, the banks of the Mississippi only relate to a few states in the center of the country.
That may be part of the reason we don’t theorize about its influence. Also, we have no spiritual or religious relation to the Mississippi. As far as I know, no one in the modern world understands rivers like the ancients did. The Freemasons might be another matter, but that remains to be seen.
The interesting point in this particular analysis is that all but three of the states bordering the Mississippi are red, politically speaking. There are only three blue states at the River’s beginning: Minnesota; Wisconsin; and Illinois. Minnesota is especially honored. It is the home of the Mississippi’s headwaters.
The United States’ Freemasonic Tie With Egypt
In Freemasonic thought, the tie between Egypt and the United States is deliberate. Freemasons are taught that their organization existed in antiquity and they have a share in Egypt’s wisdom and lore. It is well-known that Freemasons made up a majority of America’s founding fathers. The layout of our capitol is evidence of their influence, and perhaps of their intentions for the country.
Egypt Was the Center of the Ancient World
Ancient Egypt was considered the geodetic center of the known world because of its advanced geodetic and geographic science. It was common for ancient empires to locate cities and temples at a distance of round figures and simple fractions from either the tropic or the ‘prime’ meridian of Egypt. Such capitals as Nimrod, Sardis, Susa, Persepolis and even the ancient Chinese capital of An-Yang were located in this way. Washington D.C. is approximately 15 degrees north of the Tropic of Cancer.
Mormonism, which has been called the American religion, also claims a kinship with Egypt. The Mormons believe Jackson County, Missouri will be the New Jerusalem. The location designated for a temple in Jackson County is situated on the bank of the Mississippi, slightly to the west of 90° W . If I count from the western axis of ancient Egypt,(29°50’0″E), the location of the planned temple in Jackson County is 195 degrees west of that axis..1 The plans locate it at the same latitude as Washington D.C.
Is Minnesota a Proving Ground for a New Kind of America?
Is it possible that our current ruling class has an ulterior motive for its focus on Minnesota? I’m not forgetting that Illinois, another blue state on the River, was attacked by ICE first.
When the American Empire feels threatened it’s common for it to treat individuals like citizens of a rival foreign power. But the attack on Minnesota has been extravagant in its violence and destructiveness. Also, it seems to go on forever.
Is there a sense of ownership of the Mississippi River behind Trump’s attack on Minnesota? Is the attack territorial?
How would we know the difference? A political takeover is as close to a territorial takeover as a democracy gets, isn’t it? It’s hard to say. Donald Trump does not think like a democrat.
