Welcome to The American Citadel! It is my goal to create a platform where sincere people can come to learn precious truths and study uncensored lessons on topics ranging from American history to constitutional principles to conspiracy to religion to current events and beyond.

My name is Zack Strong. From a young age, I have been intensely interested in politics, history, and religion. At age twelve, I had a spiritual awakening that allowed me to understand the danger communism posed despite its false facade of weakness. From that time till the present, I have continued to dig deeper and have studied Luciferianism, Satanism, Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA), Freemasonry, the Kabbalah, Hermeticism, Zionism, communism, feminism, the New Age movement, the coming Lord Maitreya and the Ascended Masters of Wisdom, the American Founding Fathers, the U.S. Constitution, the principles of Liberty, and dozens of other philosophies, movements, ideas, organizations, and trends. I feel an urgency in my soul to warn others and to be a light in a darkening society.

The three most important things I cherish and defend are Faith, Family, and Freedom. All else is of lesser importance. My personal motto is “education is the key.” Education is the key to all beneficial progress in individuals and society. Though I don’t put great stock in formal credentials and degrees, I nevertheless have earned a Master’s degree in History from Liberty University (2024), a Bachelor’s degree in History with a minor in Political Science from Brigham Young University-Provo (2022), and a TESOL certification from Uni-Prep Institute (2021). I am now nearing completion of a Ph.D. in History at Liberty University with an expected graduation in 2027.

In today’s world, formal education is almost more of a curse than a blessing. It is the root of so much indoctrination and degradation. You have to go out of your way if you want to gain an authentically valuable education. And I say this as an online, public, and private school teacher who is the son of an amazing lifelong history teacher. I recommend homeschool as the best alternative to a public school system hampered by institutional and cultural deficiencies including the fact that God is all but banned from the classroom. How can we truly be “one nation under God” if we do not teach of Him and His laws? Parents, if you do nothing else for your children, teach them to follow their Savior Jesus Christ. That is worth more than all the diplomas and degrees the world can offer.

Because I place such a premium on knowledge and believe that we are saved no faster than we gain knowledge, as the Prophet Joseph Smith taught, I created this website. I hope it will be a benefit to you. I encourage you to subscribe and to share the posts you find worthwhile or instructive.

Now, a few more words about your humble host. I am an unashamed member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Many of my blog posts feature teachings from the Gospel of Jesus Christ or focus on religious themes. I love the Lord! Jesus is my Master, my God, and my King. America is “Immanuel’s land,” as the Puritan preacher Increase Mather affirmed. It is a special land – a covenant land. To succeed as a People, we must worship the God of this land who is Christ. Christ is King!

In my articles, I place a strong emphasis on traditional values, patriarchal marriage, and the family unit. After God, nothing is more important than family. Families are the foundational unit of society. The health of any society is directly attributable to the health of its families, and families are only as strong as the marriage that brought them into existence. We must never bow to the militant assaults of the Marxian feminists, homosexuals, and hedonists who want to destroy the God-ordained concepts of marriage and family or whose programs undermine the sanctity, health, and authority of the home. On a personal note, I am married to a wonderful woman and have two amazing daughters.

I am a dyed-in-the-wool American patriot. I am an avowed Jeffersonian constitutionalist and belong to neither of the two prevailing political parties of this great Republic. I have belonged to the Independent American Party (now renamed Independent American Patriots) and have usually voted for independent, Constitution Party, and IAP candidates for office. In 2014, the IAP called me to run for U.S. House of Representatives in Utah’s 3rd District under their banner. It was an illuminating experience through which I experienced firsthand the censorship and political manipulation of the Republican and Democratic Parties which successfully, and illegally, fought to keep all third-party candidates out of the publicly-funded candidate debates despite the fact that we were legally and lawfully on the ballot, thus depriving Utahans the chance to hear the alternatives to uni-party domination. The situation has not changed since 2014 and more trained and committed patriots are needed to step forward and steady the ark.

In addition to writing articles and posts for my The American Citadel, I have self-published four non-fiction books, the Red Alert Newsletter (now on hiatus), and ran a YouTube podcast called Liberty Wolf until censorship put it on hold. My books, available on Amazon, are: A Century of Red (2018); Red Gadiantons: What the Prophets Have Taught about the Communist Secret Combination that Threatens Mankind (2018); The Lineage of the Gods (2018); and The Lord Has Told You How to Vote (2024). More are coming soon.

In closing, thank you for being here. I appreciate your interest in my work and in restoring our Republic, promoting truth, and extending the empire of Liberty. I invite you to share my articles on your blogs, websites, social media pages, with your friends, and so forth. Education is the key to positive change and legitimate progress. Let’s each be engaged in learning and teaching, and in shining the Lord’s light as far and wide as we can. Only light dispels darkness. So let us be fiery lights in an increasingly dark and depraved world. Let us be torchbearers for the cause. Let us be reformers of error. Let us be watchmen on the tower, warning our friends and all who will listen. Let us man our posts and never allow this American Citadel to crumble.
