In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Whenever the possibility presents, throw sand into the machinery…

First, They Came For The White Cis-Gendered Hetero-Normative Males
There’s no shame inherent in skin color, a personal aspect of our biology which we do not control.
First, they came for the white cis-gendered hetero-normative males…but I wasn’t male. You can imagine the rest of the verses.
I am white, though; not just any white — fish belly white. If that’s a problem for anyone, please go dig up my Welsh, Irish, and Scottish ancestors and have a word with them. Better still, dig up my African ancestors from 50,000 years ago who departed the continent on foot heading north, and ask them why.
But wait, recent research sheds more light on skin pigmentation. UPenn’s article in Nature is explained in clear terms in Big Think. Turns out the near precursors to humans may have had light-to-white skin, covered with dense hair. As hair receded from the species, pigmentation increased. This too is believed to be a survival-enhancing response to the sun.
So, geographically we all started out as African. In terms of pigment, we may have all started out as white. Medically, as we age, the melanocytes (pigment-bearing cells) in our skin decrease in number, and we become paler. Good Lord, in another few years I’ll look like a wrinkled-up Casper the Friendly Ghost.
No aspect of ourselves should be held up for ridicule, denigration, or belittling. There’s no shame in being how we are made in the womb. As Jessica Rabbit said, “I’m not bad, I’m just drawn that way.”
If we’re going to tell the truth about slavery, let’s tell it all. The hypocrisy of the Left is shown in their failure to address this: The black African slaves brought to this land were enslaved and sold in Africa. Some, most likely, by the same tribes and peoples who traveled to European parts and enslaved whites for trade in Africa and the Middle East centuries earlier. Morally wrong, but an accepted practice throughout these areas.
History of both evil and good must be taught. Children should understand the good that was codified in rejection of slavery. In fact, they should understand the particulars of the influence, control, and oppression exerted by the Democrat Party upon peoples of color throughout the history of this nation. No truth should be withheld, correct?
However, the proponents of Critical Race Theory want to take this in a different direction. They want fear, racism, discrimination, and hatred to abound in our society, and for interracial violence to rule the streets. Let no one dispute this – we’ve seen their fruit maturing over the past little while.
To teach a white child that unmitigated guilt is its only heritage, and a nonwhite child that oppression is its only future is a cruelty that can only result in resentment against the elders that allow this to be, in hatred against the other, and in destructive self-loathing. Our children need to be reassured that whatever evil still remains of this terrible history, their invitation is to join with the larger society and each other to continue to improve the lot of all.
There’s a special place in hell reserved for Robin DiAngelo, Ibram X. Kendi, Randi Weingarten, that crazy psychologist Aruna Khilanani, their slavish supporters, their mindless amplifiers, and all their ilk. Let us pray that they will be enlightened by the understanding of true brotherhood and turn from this hateful messaging to one of lovingkindness and that their current reservation in the afterlife will result in a no-show cancellation.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/07/first_they_came_for_the_white_cisgendered_heteronormative_males.html
In that special place that’s mentioned, i’m fairly certain there will be room for Biden supporters, and crooked politicians.
Let’s add a little more truth, shall we. There were black slave owners in the south, too. There were also Whites in the south that risk their lives and those of their families to get the black slaves to freedom.
And, the army has always been a good way to remove color bigotry from this color nonsense.
An Indian friend, always loved to drink and every time he did, you could expect some war dancing, but aside from that; you could not wish for a better neighbor.
The point is, we all have our own peccadilloes, without being concerned about skin color.
Abram Heatwole’s home was a station on the Underground Railroad in Virginia, while Samuel Whitmore was the postmaster general for the Underground Railroad in the Shenandoah Valley during the Civil War. They would have been shot had they been discovered. About 100,000 men from the South fought for the Union during the Civil War, each of whom would be summarily shot if captured.
Read Thomas Sowell’s essay “The Real History of Slavery” from the book “Black Rednecks and White Liberals” for some little taught truth about slavery. You can even have it read to you on podcast as I did on a recent road trip (a podcast called Anti Visions reads it with permission from the publisher…no commentary).
I learned some things I never knew.
Thanks for the recommendation! I believe the following is a YouTube version of the same:
That looks to be it!
BRILLIANT AMERICAN THINKER…
He’s a gift from Heaven.
Another one of his books addresses why Africa was slower to develop. From what I recall it was mostly geography. Most of Africa’s c coast is not conducive to trade either because it’s too shallow and rocky or too elevated for ships.
The interior’s major impediment is the lack of calm, wide open waterways. There aren’t any significant stretches of river for transporting goods. These factors contributed to the insulation of people to their own area. This is explains why there are so many different languages in Africa.
If anyone recalls which book I would appreciate the reminder. It’s either Race and Culture, Migration and Culture, or Conquest and Culture. Also, his Basic Economics was a major source of my liberation.
Thomas Sowell | Speech “Race, Culture, and Equality” (tsowell.com)
thomas sowell explains why countries develop better than others you tube at DuckDuckGo
~”The Origins of Economic Disparities”
I started hearing about Sowell on Bongino’s podcast and went looking for more. You are correct, he is wonderful.
Thomas Sowell and Victor Davis Hanson saved my mind. Jesus Christ saved my soul.
Conquest and Culture
Response to Them: Shut the F Up you freaking losers. There is no white, black, green, whatever – We are Americans. We are United. We desprise usurpers and communist snakes sneaking in to divide us.
We are specifically a non race, not gender, non divided country.
Solution: ELIMINATE the PRIVILIDGE of saying any COLOR IN PUBLIC. if they say white, black , etc, we immediately say YOU ARE A RACIST, we are UNITED AMERICANS that DEBATE. Tell them are sick, where is the cops, is this allowed, how can we still have racist at this time in our existence. ETC>
you get it! use AMERICANS as the VACCINE to people using race to win any topic. BLM is a RACIST GROUP. Americans Live Matter. Americans have empathy for illegal immigrants hence we havent deported any FAMILIES.
They are truly lost and have been since 2008 when they took God out of their platform.
https://www.lifenews.com/2012/09/04/democrats-remove-any-mention-of-god-from-dnc-platform/
They are Godless. There is only a deep seated lust for power and control in them. There will be some who will eventually see the light, but not before there is a great deal more of what we are now experiencing. The majority of them will have no remorse and will pay the ultimate price in the end.
“…..each one of us should be able to go as far as OUR talent and drive take us.”
That’s the key (PRIDE) word right there…OUR vs God-given. That explains it all. Their vicious, malicious, cruel lying make them the children of the father of lies.
Great points.

Is the Attorney General Mark Brnovich seeking to distract the people doing the audit, or just trying to delay it, or do the auditors want to file charges and the AG wants a peek?
Requests Evidence Of Fraud from AZ Secretary of State Katie Hobbs

Highly encouraging! Bravo Mark Brnovich!
FTA below: “Republicans in the Arizona Legislature last week stripped controversialDemocratic Secretary of State Katie Hobbs of powers related to election lawsuits, shifting the power instead to the state’s Republican Attorney General Mark Brnovich.”
https://www.dailywire.com/news/arizona-gop-strips-election-related-powers-from-democrat-secretary-of-state-shifts-to-republican-ag
Sounds like the AG is asking the SOS if she has any evidence to contribute to potential lawsuits. Since this was an email, not official correspondence, it also sounds like political gamesmanship.
Emails are official. A government agent putting anything in writing in an email and it makes it public record.
Remember, Sec. of State Katie Hobbs is a DemoCommieFascist.
A mini-update from central and northwest Ohio: Trump enthusiasm has not waned in the towns and rural areas. Recently we saw TRUMP 2024 flags on pick-up trucks and some houses.
Our retirement house in northwest Ohio needs some work. As a result we have been dealing with small-town contractors and professional mechanics (electricians, plumbers, etc.).
One of the contractors was talking about the “lumber shortage” and how – from what he has seen and heard – it is artificial. According to him, various companies are stockpiling it to keep prices high. However, he foresees a crash in demand this autumn, precisely because of the artificially high prices: “A lot of guys are going to be stuck with mountains of lumber and will be dumping it at low prices.”
A professional painter said it is difficult to find anyone to work: his own high-school age son went off to a $26.00 per hour job at a warehouse, rather than work for his father at $15.00. A contractor said he had a waiting list of 200 building and remodeling projects extending into October, because he could not find qualified plumbers, carpenters, etc. “Too many kids go off to college instead of training to become HVAC mechanics or electricians.”
“Too many kids go off to college” to major in Sociology, Social Work, Communications, and other highly questionable majors and end up $100,000 in debt with degrees that have no value in the present economy, or bring them part-time employment or very low-paying positions.
The painter also talked about inflation: “Sherwin-Williams sent a letter saying they have held the line as long as possible: there will be a huge increase in paint prices in August.”
And one way Sherwin-Williams held the line was through the following: we bought some paint at one of their stores here in Columbus. On the “gallon” of paint we bought I noticed the following curious number:
3 27/32.
Yes, a gallon is now in fact Three and Twenty-Seven/Thirty-Seconds Quarts. Shrinking a “gallon” by a few tablespoons was one way they were keeping prices down.
It will be interesting to see if the shrunken gallon will remain, after they raise the prices.
But don’t worry: the geniuses who brought you the Massive Economic Disasters of the 1930’s* and the 1970’s* are back in power and ready to repeat every mistake in a larger and grander and more antagonistic fashion than ever before!
* By 1932, the economy was already showing signs of recovery: the New Deal of Roosevelt made things worse and kept them that way until World War II.
* In the 1970’s, stupid ideas like price controls – approved by DEMS and the Uniparty – exacerbated the DEMS massive spending on The Great Society and the Vietnam War: Nixon announced that he was a Keynesian (and not a Conservative) and then we got Ford and another stupid idea: The WIN Button. Wearing a “Whip Inflation Now” button would make it all go away. Of course, DEM “Jimmy” Carter ran things further into the ground with the help of another DEM Congress.
Your comment is actually a textbook and I appreciate learning from you this morning. Exactly why I come here several times every day. Thank you.
You are most welcome! Many thanks to all for the nice comments!
Truly!
Citizen historians today are putting in writing (here and elsewhere) what may no longer be available in hard copy. In the sense that digital format can be erased with a click (I think that was the original point, btw!) people should be encouraged to print out copies of such posts that present historical facts from previous eras because the Left will continue to act out its pathological anger by destroying and defacing remnants that bear true witness to the past (thanks, Ausonius!) and that proves that the Left excels at nothing except deceit. Yet deceit is a powerful tool when it is not repeatedly and forcefully countered, and this can never be forgotten!
I tell my kids the same thing with Pictures. Kids today don;t have photographs everything in the cloud.. But, yes the cloud could be hacked.. and they would lose it all.
So I try to occassionally make prints and give it to them so they will have actual photos they don;t have to worry about being deleted ..somewhere…
This is the exact reason we deplorables have all the power. The shortage of allied tradesman is how we destroy Lucifers Children without physical violence. They cant do anything for themselves. Refuse services to them. Know your potential customers background then act accordingly. I wont knowingly haul any load for those that support the destruction of our Nation. Let them eat grass.
Mike,
That is an idea that could use some expansion and promotion. The commie/marxists are excellent at controlling everything and making it up as they go. January 6 is a perfect example. We have MAGA people who are being persecuted for nothing more than their political ideology.
In recent discussions we have seen Black Rifle Coffee taking a hit. They are an easy target. Not so much the displeasure with Coke – they are practically untouchable- or Kellogg, a target way back when initiated by Breitbart of which I don’t think it caused a ripple at Kellogg.
BUT . . . . . . . .IF tradesman of all types vowed to serve their clients who are MAGA and love this country. . . . . and NOT those who wish it’s destruction. .. . perhaps THAT would have some effect on the power of real Americans who are being abused in every possible way.
But eveyone of us, 74+ million can do something every day. It dosnt have to be spectacular. Where you buy that pack of chewing gum can make a difference. Buy American instead of Chinese if you can. Small victories lead to wars won. Deny the enemy financial aid, sustenance,cover and concealment, no place to RON- rest overnite in thire travels.

This would be especially effective if plumbers refused to work for known Demo Commies.
I had 2 different landscapers last summer choose to not take my job after they saw my trump signs. Even told me that was why. I shouldn’t have been so surprised but I was. Guess we should do the same.
I don’t associate with liberals in any way….I play tennis here with the local tennis coach. Few days after the election I was talking to her about new neighbors from Colorado; were they stinkin’ liberals or not. To which she responded, they may be stinkin’ conservatives -I voted for slojo. My oldest son called me a “F$%^&* commie”….I told her he may be on to something….”Take me off your mailing list!”…We haven’t spoken , or played tennis, since….Life goes on…They are the devil’s spawn.
Tough business!
When they come back looking for a job because their favored client base stop paying them for their monthly lawn cuts, can tell them sorry found my guys and they are so reliable!
But. My sign is still up so I doubt they’ll be back. ?
Where do you live, Treeper?
Ohio. You near by?
I respectfully disagree with that approach Mike . Yes , withhold some services ,but I think it’s better to take their money but dont give them a red cent back . Bleed them but don’t return the favor . Basically – Take their money but don’t buy anything from them .
Regarding rural Trump enthusiasm. Traveling I-44 west of Springfield MO there is a huge billboard saying “More on the 2020 election story. frankspeech.com”.
Regarding FDR, I don’t understand his unquestioned popularity and the buy-in of his policies when he was in for multiple terms and the depression went on and on (actually a doubleheader depression).
Thank you!
You could not say anything bad about Franklin Roosevelt to my grandparents, who were born in the 1890’s. They had bought into his propaganda of Hope during the Depression and their allegiance could not be changed.
Although, my parents, also Democrats for a long time, eventually came around to my way of thinking. 🙂 (In high school I supported Barry Goldwater: I had read 1984 and Animal Farm in the 8th Grade, and was reading William F. Buckley’s essays in the newspaper.)
So by 1980, my parents and my c. 85 year-old grandmother had changed: the Carter Presidency and the DEMS support for abortion destroyed what was left of their allegiance to the DEMS.
The entire family voted for Ronald Reagan.
I was raised in a family that detested FDR and everything about him; believed his works program were anti-American to their core, so as a young child absorbed a natural habit to looking askance at everyone who thought FDR was the savior of our nation during those hard times.
Which made for interesting discussions with my husband who was raised by a family that benefited from, and so loved everything FDR did for the country.
At the least we learned to consider different perspectives before making final decisions on anything.
You’ve a similar tale to mine: my father was born first generation Italian-American in NYC. Any mention of FDR brought about a contemptuous epithet attached to a “Damned FDR, Joe Stalin’s buddy” from him. Years later, in the very late 40s, he was an electrician here in northern CA, a highly unionized area, so most of his neighbors and co-workers didn’t understand how he, a working man, could be a Republican.
My mother was born in Oklahoma and lived in the Dust Bowl of the Depression with two young kids. Her first husband earned a bare living for them working in one of FDR’s alphabet programs. She always said there was no way they’d have survived otherwise. She, of course, was an FDR booster.
To give my father credit where credit is due, he was a voracious reader of the news, was always sure to read all sides on any editorial page; he paid attention to international affairs and was of an intellect able to make connections between cause and effect.
To give my mother credit, she wasn’t one to automatically vote for the guy with the “D” by his name. I can think of two occasions when she voted for a Republican nominee for President.
They did come from two different experiences that colored their politics, however.
I don’t really know if my dad factored into his perception of the Depression the fact that he and his Italian father never lacked for work during those years because NYC was purposely given huge amounts of money from the Fed government so that America’s financial, social, and symbolic “center” didn’t collapse.
I don’t know if my mother realized that my father, unlike her first husband, showed his foresight, grit, and determination to pursue at a young age a trade that his country likely would always need and which would provide him with job opportunities.
I know where both of them would stand were either alive today; they’d be solidly MAGA.
Same with my folks. Dad was first generation American of Italian descent. Never finished high school – left to join the CG in WW2 (lied about his age to serve the country). One of the books of his that I absolutely treasure is “Our National Government” an Introductory course for college. Mom was one of 10 children. Neither went to college but I’d put their education up against anyone currently coming out of “Ivy” league schools. Both were staunch Democrats for years. I believe things started to change in the 80’s and I suspect they both voted for Reagan. They would have be appalled at how BHO “transformed” the country and I am certain they would have loved our 45th (and rightful 46th) President.
I love when poster give background?
My mother was born in 1935 Dust Bowl Oklahoma. Peanut farmers hated FDR. He made them burn crops. Dad raised in Texas by blacksmith/machinist who hated FDR. I read THE FORGOTTEN MAN years ago so I could understand why and how FDR pushed both sides of my family into poverty. He was a drunk too and had Charles DeGaul been allowed at Malta we might have avoided Russia and the Cold War. Churchill couldn’t stop FDR from giving away the farm to Stalin alone. Spit. My parents/grandparents loved Goldwater, Reagan & Perot. Trump grew on them over time 😉
Mitrokhin KGB files and Venona intercepts showed Red Frankie Russiafelt was Stalin’s pool boy.
Our entire WW2 policy was scripted in the Kremlin.
Whole wartime admin riddled with commies.
Much like today.
My families were much as yours. My maternal grandparents were Republicans in southern Indiana back to the start of the Republican party in the mid-1850’s. My fraternal grandparents were Democrats from southern Illinois, just across the Wabash who worshiped FDR. My lasting memory of my maternal grandmother was her referring to Harry Truman as: “hairy-ass Truman”. She despised everything about Democrats and years later I found out that it was RDR’s New Deal policies that cost my mom’s family to lose their farm.
At Divinity school Duke 90s, student grad assistant was more history than Divinity. Pointed out Truman came out of St. Louis, then, as now, one of the most corrupt Democrat Machines. Up there with, Chicago, NYC, NO.
Not much changed in 75 years.
It’s like the American people have a Death Wish and love playing Russian Roulette with politics.
Some day, maybe last November, the chamber loaded “D” will blow their brains out.
Way to be a leader Ausonius . I try to influence my family without much success though. My son and the his fiancee are conservative. The others are shall we say, a work in progress. Lol.
I wasn’t there when their thoughts were forming……but my parents were born in 1898 and 1905. Neither of them had anything good to say about Franklin Roosevelt.
All four of my grandparents were born in Denmark in the 1860s-1880s, and came to the US in the 1890s.
Like I said, I wasn’t there when their opinions were forming, but on the dryland prairie of eastern Montana, my parents wanted nothing to do with Franklin Roosevelt and as little as possible to do with the government.
They paid their taxes, worked their butts off, and were content if they occasionally got a good crop. Independence and personal liberty was what made their lives work.
Now my uncle (my dad’s brother) a mile up the road, was FDR all day every day. Who knows.
I remember getting on the great yellow school bus in our big farm yard the morning after the 1952 election. I was in third grade. Dwight Eisenhower had won the presidency the day before.
My cousin (that uncle’s daughter) who was a year old than me was already on the bus and belly-aching that there wouldn’t be any Christmas that year since Ike had won.
So there I was, a second grader just staring at her, not comprehending and thinking, “Well, maybe we should invite them to our house for Christmas.” The nastiness and the victimhood was obvious. She was obviously repeating what her parents had said over breakfast.
I had never seen such a display but, since then, have seen it consistently with democrats and leftists.
So many of them seem to bathe in it. Who knows why.
So true Sharon, they bath in it they wallow in it and they want the whole wide world to know EXACTLY how they feel about it all day long.
Nothing has really changed except we now have 24/7 news channels and the internet to spew their opinions loudly and constantly.
“So many of them seem to bathe in it. Who knows why.”
I think that’s the problem. Victimhood is look upon as a badge of honor. I can’t understand it either.
Victims don’t have to take responsibility for their own behavior.
Plus success envy, can’t admit they are individually and personally inferior.
I think you nailed it. As Eric Clapton once put it: “She cried away her life since she fell off the cradle.”
Sharon, you must be in your 90s – and still write beautifully. Thank you so much.
Awww, thanks, Ross. I’m 77! Was born in 1944. If you might enjoy more farm stories of a kid who was there in the 1950s, look in the search/category in the right hand margin, under Mailboxes and Old Barns. For a few years, I prepared one of those each Sunday and, much to my surprise, there was a general audience for whom the stories triggered their own memories.
Things changed in my life, as happens for everyone, and I discontinued those weekly shares the fall of 2014, so they are old stuff but somewhat timeless. I think the paragraph spacing got lost in the transition to the new site that was forced on the Treehouse last fall, but if you can ignore that, they are perhaps still readable.
Third grade 1952 puts her in 70+ range. I too enjoyed her post
Great story. And encouraging.
fdr was a communist sympathizer, as was his wife eleanor who traveled to Moscow several times to “visit” joe stalin…
fdr and hitler were friends, and because of that friendship, fdr kept us out of the war for 2 years even though german U-boats were sinking millions of tons of our shipping…
It’s too bad he’s not been exhumed and given a state execution. The damage this commie did to this country….
LBJ too.
That was before Adolph stabbed Joe in the back.
Then FDR had to maneuver us INTO war to save Joe.
?
Not to mention the whole concentration camp for FDR’s own citizens thingy.
I could never figure out how the Japanese navy could sneak up on us at Pearl Harbor. Stand down orders?
Basically, yes, on Pearl Harbor: this was revealed slowly throughout the 1960’s, but could have been easily deduced by an impartial observer.
Who puts so many ships in one spot during a tense time with a potentially hostile country, against whom one has imposed an oil embargo, unless he is begging for that country to attack those ships as sitting ducks?
See:
https://rense.com/general30/worse.htm
Especially when the aircraft carriers were put to sea shortly before the attack.
What I came to entertain, Churchill needed FDR’s help against the Germans but FDR did not think he could sell it to the American people at the time.
An attack by the Japanese was something FDR could sell to the American people and thus create the necessary War machine posture to assist Churchill.
Actually it was “Race” which fueled domestic emotions at the time and American Japanese citizens paid a huge price just being Japanese. If any Race has reasons for Race injustice it is the American Japanese.
Blacks were given freedom from slavery. For the American Japanese it was confiscation, detention and loss of freedom.
My mother grew up in Texas where many German legal immigrants settled. German was her first language. During the war, her family was terrified of being arrested and put in camps like the Japanese. They quit speaking German in public, afraid of non-Germans turning them in. She said some of the non-German townspeople who were once friendly became wary. Didn’t matter that her two brothers were fighting for the USA.
And after the war, look at all the true Nazis and Communists the government knowingly brought in to the USA.
Yes, the story of The Nisei did not come out for decades: it was one of the items which changed my family’s mind about F.D.R.
Not Winnie, Stalin.
Mitrokhin KGB files and Venona Intercepts showed every Department of Red Frankie’s Admin had its own codenamed Commie mole on Stalin’s payroll.
Our WW2 policy was scripted in the Kremlin.
For that matter, the same sources showed the same for Britain.
It is sometimes expedient to put conspiracy in place of incompetence and institutional inertia. 9 months and a day later a greater incompetence was displayed at the First battle of Savo island. The carriers were out delivering squadrons to bases that were soon overrun, pure luck on the timing.
You can thank a British Lord and the Germans for the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
There was a German who came to the British and warned them the Japanese were preparing the attack.
Churchill with held the information to make sure we would get involved.
Thanks to ALL the posters for such wonderful, educating information about the past!
STAND DOWN ORDER..FDR ….KNEW…SAD…
there was a book, 90s? don’t remember title or author, but premise was Red Frankie maneuvered Tojo into attack.
Book cited a closely circulated pre-war report that had war-gamed how it could be done. Some Colonel or Navy Commander did it.
So yeah, in effect, if not overt, stand down.
After Pearl, “Germany First” made NO sense other than to save Stalin.
We should have made our
Schwerpunkt Japan and give Stalin just enough aid to keep him and Adolph bleeding each other white.
If done right, the Japanese, Chinese and Russians all would have destroyed each other in a Land War in Asia.
No Nazis OR commies anywhere on the planet.
But both Britain and US were riddled with commies.
Like today.
Great point!
Most agree, we have had crumbling infrastructure, as for about 50 years, we have not maintained and upgraded our roads, bridges, water distribution systems, etc.
WHY are we not holding accountable those in policy positions (both faces of the Uniparty in Congress) who have been responsible for neglecting this basic responsibility, and instead are watching them engage in a faux argument, over how much $ they will waste, to not fix the problem?
If there was ever a time for a campaign to “vote ALL the bums out, regardless of party”, seems like this is the time.
As for me, I maintain the position I had taken, prior to the 2020 election; America First, MAGA Candidate, only ones who get my vote.
NO, I will NOT hold my nose, and vote for the lesser of two weavils, just because of the ludicrous notion that a Rino is preferable to a Dem.
No vote for McSally, or Mitt, Liz or any of that ilk.
When I expressed this view, PRIOR to the 2020 election, I got a lot of “pushback”,..wonder how much I’ll get,…now?
All those billions wasted in senseless Middle East wars and not one penny for our crumbling country wide infrastructure including inner city schools! America has been dead last since at least the end of WWII except for 4 years of President Trump!
Not from me. ?
I also don’t understand the popularity of FDR.
I only knew my paternal grandparents, barely. They never spoke politics. My parents never spoke of politics until I was in my 30s. I did know my parents voted Republican.
When Carter was running for president, there were a lot of Carter things to buy, including statues of him. And later “Billy Beer” was a thing.
My mother bought a Carter statue and other Carter things, put them up around the house and had bowls of peanuts available. She didn’t say anything to anyone about it. Her son who is older than I am, saw it and for days didn’t say anything. He was silent, unusual for him. He wasn’t quite old enough to vote in that election, but he was political.
Eventually it got to him and he started yelling that my parents could not be serious about supporting Carter, he was throwing all the Carter stuff in the trash; he was angry. My mother started laughing and said she wondered how long it would take him to say something. My mother did it as a joke.
Unfortunately Carter became president.
What a story! ?
Well written
Thank you!
I was taught that the way to write well was to read great writing: the musicality of the prose of e.g. Frederick Douglass is a great model, along with the fictional prose of e.g. Herman Melville.
(Yes, one should really read Moby Dick ! 😉
Ausonius, I thought you of all people would appreciate this.
I was looking at the many videos that are coming out of South Africa which is being looted and destroyed by the same type of savages that wreaked havoc here in the US.
Despite all the looting of every single store and business, there was one shop left untouched by the barbarians- a book store!
Many thanks for catching that very ironic detail, Seneca the Elder! 🙂
I hope the Leftists in your area are suffering some sort of well-deserved punishment! 😉
Raw log prices have been the highest I’ve ever seen.
Western Red cedar was going for $2,300.00 per mbf and trending downward since April. A typical log truck has approximately 4, 500.00 +-mbf which makes the load worth around $10,000.00.
When I started out my career 40 years ago, log prices for Cedar were in the $150.00!
Douglas Fir and hemlock are also sky high but trending downward by more than 50% from April’s high.
Loggers aren’t seeing the same kind of increase in their pay, just the middle man.
A quick follow up. I just received an update from a financial newsletter.
That quotes the The Globe and Mail ( a major Canadian newspaper) the headline is prices are now down by 70% since their highs.
I goes onto say retailers will not see a price drop for several weeks yet.
What a racket!!!
You beat me to it!

Thanks for the information.
Cheers A,
A note here from British Columbia.
We live a five minute drive from the U.S. border at Washington State.
As you will know Canada is a large exporter of raw materials to the U.S. in particular lumber.
Our exporters have been doing extremely well with their lumber products.
One day last week while walking the beach.
A train laden with lumber was heading South into the U.S.
I lost count of the number of car loads.
A contractor friend of mine tells me that indeed massive amounts of lumber are being stockpiled in the U.S.
And given the article above, whoever speculated on lumber when the price was high might as well have bought hula hoops! 😉
I bought some soap recently and when I placed it next to the one remaining bar I noticed that the new boxes say 3.75 oz as opposed to the old 4 oz.
I noticed that trick years ago when coffee prices remained stable, but the package changed from 16 oz. to 13 oz. I’ve been an observer ever since! The problem with soap is you can’t go too small or you end up with those little rose soaps that are only for decoration!
Our roofing contractor sent us an email saying we would have to pay an additional $1150 to get our project done due to
the cost of plywood jumping almost 50%.
He’s a nice guy and offered to cancel the contract. After going back and forth, he suggested we wait until the fall. He thinks prices will fall as well. And if it doesn’t then he’ll cancel it at that time.
And they have been changing the measures on groceries for some time now. Notice how there are no more 32 oz tins?
Been paying 32 oz prices for 28 ox cans for at least 6 years now.
Most of the sheeple don’t pay attention to these little “changes”. They’re too busy reading tabloids and watching the latest “reality” tv show.
My chips went from 8 oz bag to 7.75 oz bag, price also jumped 30% in February.
Excellent idea: check the article above on the crashing prices for 2×4’s.
Greetings, Ausonius!
Always delighted to read your most enlightening commentary.
Thank you! Truly I did not expect such an effusive reaction, but am gratified that so many people were enthused!
I will be off-line again for a few days, because of our work at the “new” house (a classic ranch-style built in 1960).
So far, retirement has been nothing but work and hitting the road to work some more! 🙂
Your post is a well written, truthful, accurate and terrible story.
Similar here in East Texas.
I can’t find people to work for $20 per hour, let alone keep up with my beloved wife!
I hope lumber prices crash!
I’m building!
Thanks again ✝️
Are the auditors having trouble with making up their minds whether to bring a machine gun or a cannon to the fight for a good and fair audit? Charge Maricopa County Commissioners with a few frauds at a time, or roll out the MOA-Fraud Reports?
REMINDER: Judge Ruled AZ Senate Subpoenas LEGAL AND ENFORCEABLE – Maricopa County Commissioners Are in Violation of the Law
By Jordan Conradson
Published July 18, 2021 at 7:58am
“We respect his legal opinion & will immediately start working to provide the Arizona Senate with the ballots and other materials,” Sellers said in a statement after meeting with county lawyers.” Still waiting on passwords, routers, & envelopes/signatures.
The Arizona Senate is not using its powers. Just haul the supervisors into the Senate chamber. Jail them until they comply in full.
Link to Article
Exactly. Picture shoe on other foot and Pelosi in charge. Yeah, those F’rs would be in jail before you could finish reading this sentence.
The problem is Maricopa County sheriff Jeff Panzone is a diehard demorat and is funded by the George Soros foundation. He let the cat out of the bag when he demanded that the audit be stopped. He will never arrest his fellow comrades’.
If he fails to comply with a judge’s order, he should be removed, recalled, fired or ridiculed in perpetuity!
Many thanks for all these important links!
Remember when Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were hardcore anti-vaxxers?
Misinformation GOLD!
Classic. Just shows you how much of a fraud it all is. I am getting tired of this. I need a vacation.
God help all the children and family members who did not do their research and got these fake, dangerous, killer shots.
Finally! Something that makes a little sense from the Misadministration.
They was agin’ it before they was for it!
They’re killing people and must be taken off all platforms!
I don’t make the rules.
If they start referring to the failing vac again as
” Trump ‘s vac ” that will be significant.
Bookmarked.
WHY NBC GOT RID OF JAY LENO
News is leaking out from Hollywood executives in-the-know that the Obama White House had been leaning on, pressuring executives at NBC for the last two years to replace Jay Leno because the comedian was criticizing Obama every night. Obama didn’t like it and considered it a racist attack on him.
After data came to light that $100’s of millions had been spent on First Family vacations during a recession, Mrs. Obama’s unpopular new laws that changed food in America’s schools and other negative news including the disastrous Obamacare roll-out & website mess, Jay Leno took his comedy to a new level and his ratings skyrocketed — none of the other comics were so bold.
NBC couldn’t stomach the fact that Leno’s jokes about Obama were always right on target about the first black president.. And left-leaning Democrat executives at NBC were being harassed by Obama himself who thought the comedy was a racist attack on him.
GOLDEN OLDIES FROM JAY:
“I was going to start off tonight with an Obama joke, but I don’t want to get audited by the IRS.”
On NSA surveillance: “We wanted a president who listens to all Americans — now we have one.”
On a new IRS commissioner: “He’s called ‘acting commissioner’ because he has to act like the scandal doesn’t involve the White House.”
On closing the Guantanamo prison for terrorists: “If he really wants to close it, turn it into a government-funded solar power company. The doors will be shut in a month.”
Concerning the Benghazi, Associated Press, and IRS scandals: “Remember in the old days when President Obama’s biggest embarrassment was Joe Biden?”
On saying he didn’t know about the IRS scandal: “He was too busy not knowing anything about Benghazi to not know anything about the IRS.”
“The White House has a new slogan about Benghazi: Hope and change the subject.”
“It’s casual Friday, which means that at the White House, they’re casually going through everybody’s phone calls and records.”
“It is not looking good for President Obama. Today his teleprompter took the fifth.”
“Fox News has changed its slogan from ‘Fair and Balanced’ to ‘See, I told you so!'”
On commencement address: “He told the young graduates their future is bright unless, of course, they want jobs.”
On a Chicago man who set a record for riding a Ferris wheel: “The only other way to go around and around in a circle that many times is to read the official report on Benghazi.”
On White House claims of ignorance on the scandals: “They took ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ out of the Pentagon and moved it into the White House.”
Now the last and I think best….. “These White House scandals are not going away anytime soon. It’s gotten so bad that people in Kenya are now saying he’s 100 percent American.”
There’s A Lot Of Truth In Humor.
Every one Of Those Lines Above Was Said By Jay Leno.
(source: Gab)
It was obvious, but never mentioned, that Norm MacDonald was fired from SNL’s Weekend Update because of his Clinton jokes:
Note that, as far as I’m aware, Republicans never moved to fire anyone at SNL over entire skits about Republican presidents and politicians. Of course had they tried they wouldn’t have succeeded anyway because of the prevalence of libtards in the media.
Back in the days when SNL was funny! ? Thanks for sharing. I can see why he got canned….particularly after all the Vince Foster comments.
“Back in the days when SNL was funny!” It’s amazing how comedy goes flat as soon as the Chinese Communist Party gets involved. Many comedians are now complaining that comedy is too woke and politically correct to be funny anymore. And that is by design.
It’s pure 24/7 propaganda now, and propaganda (or brainwashing) is all business, no sense of humor.
I always liked Norm McDonald. I wasn’t watching SNL at that time but I watched these about a year ago and was thoroughly entertained!
Funny stuff!
Thanks for posting. I never was to much on the late night comics so, I missed these awesome jokes from Leno.
The last late night host was Craig Ferguson. Great at interviews, funny, smart. He was from Scotland and became an American and his life perspective was very down to earth. Stopped watching when they replaced hum.
“Remember in the old days when President Obama’s biggest embarrassment was Joe Biden?” Now Joe Biden is the country’s biggest embarrassment!
Actually, that list of one-liners may be the most penetrating , and incisive criticism of the Obama presidency I’ve ever seen or heard.
It’s not that others had not commented on these egregious Obama moments, but no one has ever so effectively and permanently driven them into the ground as Leno (and his writers!) accomplished!
Thanks for these! ‘Loved the one about the teleprompter!
Sounds like Obozo’s spying was legendary. He is an evil man and the skyrocketing ratings for Leno’s show, are good indication that OBlunder’s second term was achieved by the cheating, as well.
I remember when President Trump’s son Eric, who had been a supporter for raising money for Danny Thomas’ St. Jude’s Hospital for Children, was forced to stop any activities, to stifle any fundraising events causing that hospital to find other fundraising champions to cover their huge operating costs – all because his father was President of the United States.
It was a huge hit to that organization’s fund raising abilities.
Comparing that to listening to the graft the current resident in the White House’s son is doing, ‘selling art’ to anonymous purchasers – and we all know the Big Guy is still going to get his 10%.
There was probably a bunch of FBI investigators digging into every aspect of Eric Trump’s charity works looking for graft, dirt, anything that could be thrown against the wall to see what could stick, and crickets about the current resident’s son.
Hopefully the rank and file leftists in our local communities start to see just how corrupt their political champions are, would love to see that Walk Away movement make a resounding comeback.
I don’t think there ever has been a more nakedly venal ploy in the history of politics as the notion that Hunter ‘Rembrandt’ would sell his artworks under the following conditions: a price for each work would be set by a Biden-loyalist art dealer (and personally chosen by Joe Biden, the Occupant), the pretext being that if buyers over-paid for these trifles, accusations of influence peddling could be made. However, if the actual, true value of Hunter Rembrandt’s work is paid, no such insinuations could be entertained.
So it would work this way: anything that H. Rembrandt offers for sale which at auction might fetch (he is the son of the Occupant, after all) $500 dollars, would not go to auction at all, but rather would be available for purchase only at its true value of, say $10,540,000 as determined by Biden’s hand-picked art dealer, just to cite an example…could be a little more or a little less (you get the idea!).
Phew! Finally! Thank God for transparency in government. This way we can all be confident that when Chase Bank wants to decorate its lobby it can avoid over-paying for the coveted Hunter Rembrandt’s and thus legitimately dodge charges of trying to buy influence since Biden’s hand-picked art expert will solve that problem. Case closed!
Note: this issue disappeared from the news entirely the day these facts were reported.
Whether we like it or not, we are in a struggle for our nation. Our destruction has been put into a gallop for a minimum of thirty years with every president and their administrations sole purpose our demise. “We must fight like the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s Ark and it’s starting to rain” shout out to Sundance.
Comity, decorum a gentleman’s debate, fighting under one sided Marquess of Queensbury rules will guarantee that we will lose. You know the old adage of “bringing a knife to a gunfight.” The people that conspired to steal an election for the President of the United States of America have no such barrier, nothing is off the table!
They (the uniparty) are counting on our side to fall back on that very American concept of fair play. Oh well, we’ll get’em next time. Folks, we are not eight year olds picking sides for dodge-ball. This level of villainy will not retreat but will coalesce and go for the kill, literally.
This is not hyperbole. Take your rose colored glasses off and look at the last 30 years and just to make it manageable since President Trump came down the escalator in 2015. The Steele Dossier, Russia, Mueller, Divin Ryan throw of 2018 midterms, Impeachment 1&2, no recess appointments, BIM/Antifa (useful idiots), the Wuhan Con, election fraud 2016/18/20 and make no mistake, this was a bipartisan effort.
We the People don’t have a side, look at the poor people locked up from 1/6. They are political prisoners of the uniparty, nothing more, nothing less. All of the MSM read from the same hymnal, insurrection, sedition, “worse than 9-11,” not a moments coverage about what really happened, it was a set-up and sadly some fine people got swept up in the fraud.
My point, we must not fall back into normalcy. Apathy is just as dangerous. These are weapons to use to divide & conquer us as a people, our commonality is our strength. Our commonality as Americans, Mom, apple-pie, the flag, our founding, kindness to our fellow man, love of God, standing for the National Anthem…not to accentuate our differences, but to accentuate our commonality.
Don’t fight each other but fight the uniparty our common enemy and we’ll win. Everyone’s rage, all emanates from the swamp and the swamp rats therein. The swamp would be happy if we all just disappeared or worse fell into Civil War.
If we fall into traps of the Republican/Democrat charade We the People are done. It’s grim, but it’s reality. We must link arms and let’s sweep this evil from our midst.
So…”- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.” Abraham Lincoln
We know, they know the world knows that the election was stolen “no ifs ands or buts.” act accordingly.
Be prepared, stay alert and PRAY! We have a country to save.
Good sound advice, Stan H.
But to be more specific… the operative word now is – LOCAL.
Local businesses, local school boards, local volunteering, local networks, local elections, etc. etc.
This country will only be taken back… by locality after locality.
Making America great again… one heart at a time.
Amen.
The Founders believed they had a duty FROM GOD to do more:
https://www.historyplace.com/unitedstates/revolution/rev-prel.htm
Local “Committees of Correspondence”.
Neighborhood “Sons of Liberty”.
Community Home Defense Guard “Minutemen.”
Radicalize, Organize, Militarize, Train, Mobilize.
Everyone be aware of this: Do you trust anything the democrats say or do? Then, why would you go to the drug store and get one of their shots they are pushing, giving money to get them, free vacations, free lottery tickets. Think: No, they have a deep motive. Kill as many people as we can…slow population like abortion clinics do. Dangerous drugs. Our children are the big time suffering group. Most will more than likely never have children.
Trusting a democrat can get you killed.
Like attending a mostly peaceful protest!
Exactly.
Will.
That’s the ChiComs War AIM.
The DemiComs are their Quisling 5th Column.
Consider this:
The majority of maskers and vaxxers are followers of the conmunist demoncrats. If the premise is that they’re trying to kill folks, it be will mostly their own cult members that die.
observation from a small old branch
we really miss your fun sarcasm –
loved how you used to ‘get all gussied up’ to go grocery shopping
made the whole thing hilariously imaginable
i know what you post is deadly serious
wish i had your sense of sarcasm / satire
thanks for posting
Thanks. Sometimes things require a certain solemnity where perhaps sarcasm is not appropriate.
But I prefer fun…ha.
I am prepared. As is my family and small groups nearby.
Thanks for the post ✝️??
Be prepared, stay alert and PRAY! We have a country to save.
You’re missing step 4
DO something. As Martin Luther cribbed from the Benedictines: “Ora et Labora”, Pray and work.
Unless you believe God will Deliver The Republic by a selective meteor strike or a Virus that only affects Democrats.
The Scriptural record seems to indicate God tends to use Human Agency to accomplish Regime Change.
Remember Othniel, Ehud, Shamgar, Deborah, Barak, Jael, Gideon etc?
Bloody minded, bloody handed, ruthless killers all, that did the wet work of deliverance.
I’ve long suspected that if God tasks his people with Proactive deeds of mercy and kindness (Matt.25:31-46) it is possible, perhaps even probable (apply Romans 13 to our Constitutional Republic in light of The Declaration of Independence) that we are tasked with Proactive deeds of JUSTICE.
The Founders certainly thought so: “Disobedience to Tyrants is Obedience to God.”
They Radicalized, Organized, Militarized, Trained, Mobilized.
https://www.historyplace.com/unitedstates/revolution/rev-prel.htm
I’ve seen nothing to suggest The Republic can be saved by any other means.
Of course it can be argued God’s Will is for His People to be Enslaved by their enemies.
Seems like we’re mostly there.
Couldn’t this all have been prevented with common sense spray reform, including assault spray restrictions and allowing lawsuits against spray manufacturers?
https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/30-35-people-injured-after-repellent-attack-at-miami-international-mall/2497804/?amp
“Thirty to 35 people were injured Saturday after a man discharged a very strong repellent spray, apparently used for bears, at Miami International Mall in Doral, according to police. The incident happened at the Bath and Body Works store.
“”We started coughing, actually, where we were and we weren’t even that close,” said one shopper. “We felt it. We could smell it. We could breath it.”
“Police say the suspect also robbed the store of two bags of candles and sprayed the manager of the store in the face before getting in a yellow cab and fleeing.”
Florida gone wild

Proclamation by the leader of the California Bear Flag Rebellion of 1846:
“To all persons, citizens of Sonoma, requesting them to remain at peace, and to follow their rightful occupations without fear of molestation.
The Commander in Chief of the Troops assembled at the Fortress of Sonoma gives his inviolable pledge to all persons in California not found under arms that they shall not be disturbed in their persons, their property or social relations one to another by men under his command.
He also solemnly declares his object to be First, to defend himself and companions in arms who were invited to this country by a promise of Lands on which to settle themselves and families who were also promised a “republican government,” who, when having arrived in California were denied even the privilege of buying or renting Lands of their friends, who instead of being allowed to participate in or being protected by a “Republican Government” were oppressed by a “Military Despotism,” who were even threatened, by “Proclamation” from the Chief Officer of the aforesaid Despotism, with extermination if they would not depart out of the Country, leaving all of their property, their arms and beasts of burden, and thus deprived of the means of flight or defense. We were to be driven through deserts, inhabited by hostile Indians to certain destruction. To overthrow a Government which has seized upon the property of the Missions for its individual aggrandizement; which has ruined and shamefully oppressed the laboring people of California, by their enormous exactions on goods imported into this country; is the determined purpose of the brave men who are associated under his command.
He also solemnly declares his object in the Second place to be to invite all peaceable and good Citizens of California who are friendly to the maintenance of good order and equal rights (and I do hereby invite them to repair to my camp at Sonoma without delay) to assist us in establishing and perpetuating a “Republican Government” which shall secure to all: civil and religious liberty; which shall detect and punish crime; which shall encourage industry, virtue and literature; which shall leave unshackled by Fetters, Commerce, Agriculture, and Mechanism.
He further declares that he relies upon the rectitude of our intentions; the favor of Heaven and the bravery of those who are bound to and associated with him, by the principle of self preservation; by the love of truth; and by the hatred of tyranny for his hopes of success.
He further declares that he believes that a Government to be prosperous and happyfying [sic] in its tendency must originate with its people who are friendly to its existence. That its Citizens are its Guardians, its officers are its Servants, and its Glory their reward.
William B. Ide, Head Quarters Sonoma, June 15, 1846
The very essence of what President Trump is working so hard on every day and which will surely lead to great success.
(Ide starting writing this on the evening of June 14th 1846. Exactly 100 years later on that same date Donald J. Trump was born. It was written in the stars.)
Very interesting! Enjoyed that!
As President Teddy Roosevelt tweeted in 1901: “There is a widespread conviction in the minds of the American people that the great corporations known as trusts are in certain of their features and tendencies hurtful to the general welfare. …Corporations engaged in interstate commerce should be regulated if they are found to exercise a license working to the public injury. It should be as much the aim of those who seek for social- betterment to rid the business world of crimes of cunning as to rid the entire body politic of crimes of violence. Great corporations exist only because they are created and safeguarded by our institutions; and it is therefore our right and our duty to see that they work in harmony with these institutions.”
“The great corporations which we have grown to speak of rather loosely as trusts are the creatures of the State, and the State not only has the right to control them, but it is duty bound to control them wherever the need of such control is shown.”–Pres. Teddy Roosevelt, Trust-buster
If you have a better opinion, let’s hear it.
If you’ve got a better joke, tell it.
If you’ve got a better idea, share it.
Shutting down other people is an admission your own opinions are shameful, your jokes aren’t funny, your ideas suck and your heart is full of tyranny for your fellow citizens.
Let people talk. Let people live. Let people laugh, you twisted Nazi control freaks.
And if you fact-check a joke, you are one. Fascist.
“These power-mad Big Tech Oligarchs have proven they can’t be trusted–but they can be Anti-Trusted!”
Jovan Pulitzer ( imho ) needs to ask each of those people that he spars with very technical questions to make them either admit that they don’t know shit about auditing electronic elections or out and out embarrass them into stating bullshit that technical people will say is bullshit. That goes for politicians and judges and law enforcement.
I’m not techy but when you here him say things like ” Dominion doesn’t make modems they write software ” and these people he spars with have NO CLUE, that’s when I ” see the strings and can’t unsee them”.
Technical Questions will control the conversation and rule the interview and will show people just WHO is telling the truth and who doesn’t know their ass from a hole in the ground!!
Which proves the other statement made by Jovan Hutton Pulitzer, from Sundance’s post last night – get the politicians out of the audit, or in an observer status only.
Of all the people totally unqualified to make technical judgements on things that are purely technical, politicians are first in line as being completely unqualified.
Ha. Politicians are not qualified for anything, actually.
Ok, well perhaps qualified to lie and break promises.
the stupid politician – admitted the intial bill makes it IMPOSSIBLE to do an AZ type audit, and the politician said we have an AMENDMENT THOUGH, THAT COULD POSSIBLE GET APPROVED LATER to make it a full audit.
get the scam? make an ooopsie that GUARANTEES so DEEP STATE PAIN, then PROMISE US HOPE to get that amendment in later.
JOVAN was saying this guy is a TRAITOR, a deceptive FReshman ass kisser beggging to join the club.
nobody is stupid. you either are a traitor or an American. Nobody gets to hide behind stupidity.
I’m sorry. I just don’t buy into this new ‘OBiden vs. Big Tech’ narrative. Nope. Seems we’re about to stroll down a “We NEVER even LIKED each other!”gaslit road. My only question is exactly what they’ve been spooked by other than polling?
That was my feeling as well. Something’s hinckey with this whole thing. There is something else much worse going on from which they need to keep us distracted.
Just cannot figure what. Yet.
Keep your eyes and ears open. It is often a slip of the tongue from which the truth comes forth.
Im not sure it was just a ‘slip of tongue’ though. To me, Paskis initial statements seemed hastily scripted and she appeared more stressed and nervous when delivering them. Not like I’ve seen her before.
I’m certainly not body language expert but as the parent of a teenage son, my BS sensors are up to eleven these days.?
Many pols, people in the news like Fauxchi, analyzed on this site. I’ve asked her to do Psaki.
https://bombardsbodylanguage.com/
LOL when she says: “I don’t like this little man…”
We do not collude with the Xiden regime, see, look at our tweet disagreeing with Xiden. Why would we send that tweet if we were working together. Transparently phony spat and narrative.
Bingo.
My bet is big tech thinks customers will flee the moment people know that they are being controlled by government.
Not just flee.
Think of the people that use these platforms for business and all the confidential information possibly turned over to the government.
I knew that years ago, when I declined to join Fake book and Twatter. I’m not even on LinkedIn. But since the Patriot Act, our government actively spies on all of us anyway.
Now, they want to inject us so we can all ping off their 5G antennaes. Well, at least the survivors of the purge-I -mean-Great-Reset will be tagged like dogs at the vet.
“This Is Worrying Me Quite A Bit”: mRNA Vaccine Inventor Shares Viral Thread Showing COVID Surge In Most-Vaxxed Countries
https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/worrying-me-quite-bit-mrna-vaccine-inventor-shares-viral-thread-showing-covid-surge-most
To the inventor of the mRNA vaccine:
Don’t worry and don’t take the blame, man! Point the finger at the test, RT-PCR, which confirms the covid “case.” Tell the case makers to crank down on the RT-PCR cycle threshold. That’ll getcha to where you want to be. Simple.
another point is: cases used to be defined as “with symptoms”
these changed the definition to with virus without symptoms – to get case counts. prior to this a non-symptom person who NEVER be put as a case.
1) find an unvax person
2) find 3-4 vaxed people
3) have them stand near each other for 45 seconds.
4) see if the unvaxed person starts to have an itchy throat, cough, or some kind of signal of an immune response.
—–
there is something else going on here. don’t trust me, TRY IT.
I get headaches, worse than a hangover, almost every time I’m around a recently-vaxxed person. Has also caused irregularities in my cycle twice.
My daughter’s menstrual cycle completely stopped after her boyfriend was injected with the mRNA spike proteins. But it returned after a few months. She also contracted Covid-19 shortly after he was jabbed, but he didn’t show any symptoms or test positive.
What he says should come as no surprise to anyone. He needs to name names.
The average voter knows NOTHING of this.
When it comes out, we need to put it everywhere.
Yep, which of our Decepticon friends was involved. Place your money. Paulie Numnuts Ryano, Thirty Pence, Gonnna Graham ? Who do you bet your money on ?

The fact that so few are talking about the assassination tells me there is so much more to this story.
Great point!
Yup. It is simply inconceivable that this is just some two-bit coincidence. Lot more attention should be paid to the players behind the stated players.
Did they whisk his wife here for treatment to keep her quite?
some dialogue is going around that him and 2 other presidents declined the vaccine. would be bizarre if even remotely possible
(this was from a poster yesterday (apologies I don’t remember who)
Three Presidents Reject Covid Vaccines; Three Presidents Die
“Either you believe there is an actual conspiracy or you believe that this is nothing more than a coincidence, which flies in the face of . . . logic. Three presidents from three countries died under mysterious circumstances, and within months of each other, after they refused the experimental COVID injections for their people.
The governments we are talking about who refused the World Health Organization’s death jab are Burundi, Tanzania and most recently Haiti.
Here are these men.
In Burundi it was President Pierre Nkurunziza.
In Tanzania, it was President John Magufuli.
In Haiti, it was President Jovenel Moïse.
All three of those Presidents are now DEAD.
Did you get that? Here it is again, “Three presidents from three countries died under mysterious circumstances, and within months of each other, after they refused the experimental COVID injections for their people.”

No vaccines existed at this time.
10 year long heart ailment March 2021.
Such mysterious causes.
Assassination. July 2021.
For what it is worth, this is a recycling of an earlier claim of ‘four African Leaders killed for opposing covid19 vaxes’. The two they dropped had died of cancer and covid19.
Fact Check-These four leaders were not killed for opposing COVID-19 vaccination | Reuters
But can’t the authors of these claims figure out that June 2020 is long before vaccines?
Or do they trust that nobody will bother checking except biased media fact checkers that they can dismiss?
Seriously, killed for refusing vaccines that didn’t exist at the time?

What the Jeffrey Epstein, Imran Awan, & Jackson Cosko Scandals Might Have in Common—Luke Rosiak
By American Thought Leaders – The Epoch Times
Premiered Jul 12, 2019
Just who is Jackson Cosko, the mastermind behind what prosecutors have called ‘the largest data breach in Senate history?
What are the implications of the Imran Awan scandal and the extraordinary cover-up that followed?
And how do these scandals relate to the recent arrest of billionaire Jeffrey Epstein?
This is American Thought Leaders, and I’m Jan Jekielek.
Today we sit down with Luke Rosiak, an investigative reporter with a penchant for uncovering congressional scandals, and author of the book Obstruction of Justice: How the Deep State Risked National Security to Protect the Democrats.
We explore the scandals Luke has been exposing: that of Jackson Cosko, who gained notoriety by doxxing Republican Senators during the Kavanaugh hearings, the near-unbelievable Imran Awan scandal where 44 house democrats’ servers were deeply compromised (and how this was then covered up), and the parallels between these and the currently evolving case of Jeffrey Epstein.
Read Luke Rosiak’s book: “Obstruction of Justice: How the Deep State Risked National Security to Protect the Democrats“
One of my favorite episodes, of all time. This is a blockbuster movie that SOMEONE should make!
The corrupt DOIJ refused to prosecute the crooks, and that allowed them to go after the person who brought their crimes to light.
Sound familiar?
One of the first things I tho’t about when I heard Nitwit Tehran Nanz-Chi is opening territorial offices across the U.S. for the U.S. Capitol Police was this show. Watch it and hopefully you will see exactly what I am talking about. In essence, they are:
That is very dangerous though. It means they will probably do anything for their “party”. Ideological Idiots, like The Kenyan.
I would not put it past them to initiate the Defund The Police campaign in order to force their own to quit, just so they can hire them on the back end for their pending U.S. Capitol Territorial Police. Think about it.
Scary times!
Any red state that allows a nonstate agency such as the Capitol Police in their jurisdiction is allowing the fox into the hen house. They should tell Nanzi that her capitol goons are not wanted, welcome or needed.
Outside of the Capitol they have no jurisdiction or authority.

JW Inside Report: The Awan Bros/DNC IT Scandal featuring Luke Rosiak
By Judicial Watch
In this edition of “JW Inside Report,” host Jerry Dunleavy joins Luke Rosiak, an investigative reporter for The Daily Caller’s to discuss the cybersecurity scandal involving multiple members of Congress, including Debbie Wasserman Shultz. A Democratic IT staffer named Imran Awan was arrested last July on charges of bank fraud. He was employed by Shultz and other congressional members. He is also a suspect in a cybersecurity investigation, having been banned from congressional networks in February. In addition, his relatives, also government IT employees, are currently being investigated for alleged involvement in defrauding the federal government as well as compromising sensitive information from congressional servers.

So Salon Boy McCarthy schlepped his sorry ass over to Bedminster for an audience with our Real And Still Your President Trump. Has anyone heard what was discussed? I bet that weasel begged the President not to say mean things about those Vichy Repub Rinos that voted to impeach him.I hope PDJT gave Salon Boy a PBJ sandwich and sent him packing back to his swamp barracks.
I’ve been wondering the same. Still haven’t heard. Saw a post here the other day which hoped President Trump forced McCarthy to sit and watch the live AZ Audit press conference. I hope so too. Then McCarthy couldn’t use plausible deniability and claim he’s unaware of any “substantial voting irregularities”.
That’s STILL the hope
One hopes that President Trump had a “come to Jesus” meeting with the idiot. Seriously, where are Republicans going for Congressional leadership candidates?

This is why they are panicked and censoring openly , they lost control of the narrative.
The mindset of the left has pretty much converged to the absolute control advocated by Herbert Marcuse in 1965. This is the epitome of lust for power resting on a foundation of self godhood and hypocrisy. Read the points and compare to all the behavior you see from today’s left and there is no difference.
Sums up the game plan they have been running, now in overdrive.

Well said
Indeed.
If Cuba cannot defeat communism, I will shed a tear for the people. It will be unfortunate and sad.
If the former republic of the USA cannot defeat communism, the entire world will quickly slip into a great dark ages.

Under the heading of “sick and horrific slaughter of animals that is celebrated every year by Muslims”–Google calendar is reminding of the “Holiday” of Eid al -Adha on July 20 — where animals have their throats sliced open in the streets to “celebrate”. This is one of the most inhumane acts of animal cruelty know to man and EVERYONE IS SILENT. According to The Independent, nearly 10,000,000 animals are sacrificed in Pakistan every year on Eid. Millions of animal are brought into the Middle East from north Africa and parts of Asia and slaughter every year on Eid al-Adha.
These “religious” celebrations are not led by the Spirit of The Living God. Far from it. They are a product of a hell bound delusion fabricated by minds driven mad with hatred and ignorance. To whip up “righteous religious fervor” one has only to substitute Isaac son of the Spirit with wicked Ishmael son of the flesh. Then celebrate the fantasy with mass killing and gift giving. As usual the enemy twists the truth to manipulate and enrage a willing mob of believers/fanatics. Their blind hatred is destroying them.

Vaccine manufacturer Merck has abandoned development of two coronavirus vaccines, saying that after extensive research it was concluded that the shots offered less protection than just contracting the virus itself and developing antibodies.
https://www.merck.com/news/merck-discontinues-development-of-sars-cov-2-covid-19-vaccine-candidates-continues-development-of-two-investigational-therapeutic-candidates/
Will Merck now be canceled for going against the narrative? The U.S. government has thrown all its weight and money into the fraud of the current vaccines (which are NOT vaccines). The media propaganda machine is throwing out lies by the megaton and censoring any disagreement with the BS. Merck will have to be destroyed if it disagrees with the billion-dollar scam.
merck is a respected company now.

Since they discredited Ivermectin in Feb (which they developed but their patent expired so no longer wildly profitable) …
“February 4, 2021 11:45 am ET
KENILWORTH, N.J., Feb. 4, 2021 – Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, today affirmed its position regarding use of ivermectin during the COVID-19 pandemic. Company scientists continue to carefully examine the findings of all available and emerging studies of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 for evidence of efficacy and safety. It is important to note that, to-date, our analysis has identified:
No scientific basis for a potential therapeutic effect against COVID-19 from pre-clinical studies;
No meaningful evidence for clinical activity or clinical efficacy in patients with COVID-19 disease, and;
A concerning lack of safety data in the majority of studies.
We do not believe that the data available support the safety and efficacy of ivermectin beyond the doses and populations indicated in the regulatory agency-approved prescribing information.”
…they have opened up the playing field for a new drug, which is in trials and showing positive results. No doubt the drug will be approved, touted by FDA as a miracle, and be very expensive.
Merck’s reward for playing nicely and let Pfizer/Moderna have the vaccine space.
Excuse my jaded/skeptical/exceedingly biased commentary, but the facts remain.
Merck is working on a creating a new formulation for Ivermectin so they can patent it (AGAIN) and reap the rewards.
My paternal cousin’s husband held several patents for drugs he developed for Merck.
I’ve wondered where he would be on this if he was still alive (long retired before his death).
Of course he was a bio-chemist not a virologist.

The WH, from the ppdium no less, openly admits to providing social media companies with sources of disinformation on Covid, they want censored.
Anyone here doubt they are similarly blocking any “talk” regarding the Big lie?
Covid Disinformation;
1) Came from a wet market, NOT the lab.
2) Calling it Wuhan flu is xenophobic.
3) Masks work, and multiple masks work better.
4) Lockdowns work.
5)School closings are neccesary.
5) 15days, to slow the spread.
6) Herd immunity is an antiquated, rascist term.
7) Counting anyone who dies WITH Covid, as a Covid death, and tracking “New cases” based on PCR testing, is a valid, scientific way to evaluate the spread of the plandemic.
8)The Vaccines work, and are safe and effective.
9) Virtually any public statement by Fauci and Birx.
Any emails, texts, blog posts or news articles including any such disinformation need to be aggressively refuted, in the interests of Public Health.

None of that is coming back and it sets in motion a “dying mall” process. Just wait until the worldwide “everything bubble” bursts…
Shouldn’t they have done this first before going out arresting people and demanding pre trial detention? What about chain of custody? No one in DOJ/FBI intelligent enough to do this?
Of course the DOJ has no intention to obey a judges order…
For the foregoing reasons, Deloitte and its employees are not “government personnel” within the meaning of Rule 6(e)(3)(A)(ii) and the government has not made the requisite 54 showing of particularized need for an order authorizing disclosure under Rule 6(e)(3)(E)(i). Disclosure of grand jury matters and related materials to Deloitte is therefore prohibited.
https://ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_public_doc?2021gj0020-6
Sync, do you know whether this motion to Disclose was filed by the US House Capitol Commission or whether it was filed by the Department of Justice?
It was DOJ. They sought the courts permission to share Grand Jury material with Deloitte.
The FBI and DOJ are just too damn lazy or lack the smarts to catalogue all the material ( videos, subpoenaed documents ) that must be turned over to the defense prior to trial. This is what happens when you decided to arrest every human being who was in the capital on January 6.

Bannon War Room – Military intelligence proves stolen election in multiple states
Well, first, you have to believe that math isn’t racist. /s Seriously, the young man is doing stellar research, which should result in every state having a starting point for audits. He has also appeared on Clement’s podcast, The Professor’s Record. The guy is squared away (both guys are).
100%
Info is good, but Bannon’s headline is exceedingly misleading. It is NOT military intelligence that is showing fraud.
It is Seth Keshel, who worked in military intelligence but is no longer active military, who is doing the historical mathematical analysis, assisted by patriots nationwide.
https://t.me/s/RealSKeshel
I really wish people like Bannon, sometimes Gateway Pundit, and others would be a bit more careful with the hyperbole.
While it’s good for clicks and riling people up, it also serves to discredit our side in the view of those who are “on the fence.”
Seth Keshel
Headline is a little confusing, as this doesn’t have anything to do with active Military Intel, but here’s my appearance on War Room:

noting this comment from a science website (I’ll post the link below so you can understand the non peer reviewed crapola that this scientist is responding to and criticizing.)
” Peter G. 13 hours
I have read this new article. Four of the authors of, “The Origins of SARS-CoV-2: A Critical Review”, also wrote “Proximal Origin of SARS-COV-2”. One of their conclusions in this new 2021 article is,
“This demonstrates beyond reasonable doubt that RaTG13 is not the progenitor of SARS-CoV-2, with or without laboratory manipulation or experimental mutagenesis.”
This conclusion is spurious at best. They base their conclusion on their analysis of the 1AB gene. They disregard the rest of the genome. But don’t point out, that RaTG13 1AB gene is 96% identity similar to Covid-19 1AB gene, according to Zhou below. Slightly less than RmYN02, RpYN06 and PrC31’s, but pretty close. More importantly, RaTG13 S gene is 96% identity amino acid similar with Covid-19. RmYN02, RpYN06 and PrC31 S genes are only 76% and 63% similar to Covid-19, and their RBDs even less (60.91%). See Zhou below. Making them less likely Covid-19 immediate progenitor. The better science is represented by the articles,
“A Novel Bat Coronavirus Closely Related to SARS-CoV-2 Contains Natural Insertions at the S1/S2 Cleavage Site of the Spike Protein”, Hong Zhou, Xing Chen, and others
“Evidence for SARS-CoV-2 related coronaviruses circulating in bats and pangolins in Southeast Asia”, by Supaporn Wacharapluesadee, Chee Wah Tan, and others
“Identification of novel bat coronaviruses sheds light on the evolutionary origins of SARS-CoV-2 and related viruses”, by Hong Zhou, Jingkai Ji, and others
Zhou stated,
“Phylogenetic analysis of full-length genome sequences of representative sarbecoviruses revealed that SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) was most closely related to RaTG13, while RmYN02 and the Thailand strains formed a slightly more divergent clade.”
That is a scientific fact. Full-length genome analysis points at RaTG13. For someone to state, “this demonstrates beyond reasonable doubt that RaTG13 is not the progenitor of SARS-CoV-2”, as these 21 authors do, is to exclude a RaTG13 related type bat, from 50 years ago, as the possible immediate progenitor of Covid-19. That would be bad science. Boni, Robertson, and Holmes own article, ‘Viral CpG Deficiency Provides No Evidence That Dogs ….’, https://academic.oup.com/mbe/article/37/9/2706/5870838oV-2, Figure 1, says Covid-19 and RaTG13 share about the same “genomic CpG deficiency (ICpG) versus viral genomic GC content”. The two coronaviruses are just that similar. RaTG13 related coronaviruses can’t be ruled out as possible backbone for Covid-19. The authors’ second conclusion,
“the claim that the virus was already highly adapted to the human host, or somehow optimized for binding to human ACE2, is without validity”
Again is a conclusion, that does not take into account the high genomic homology of 99.98%, of many of the first Covid-19 victims. Most first victims were all hit by the same highly toxic Covid-19 environment in part of the Hunan Seafood market. All animals had to be destroyed. No outpatient service for many of these first victims, straight to the ICU. Few mutations, small time period to last ancestor (tMRCA), Covid-19 was ready to go at the beginning of the outbreak.
And the lack of identifiable immediate precursor coronaviruses, point at already highly adapted, not recently evolving from known precursor coronaviruses. Its divergence date says it had been in nature for at least 50 years already. Yes, already highly adapted. The binding affinity of 20% greater than related betacoronaviruses. More residues to bind human ACE2 in the Covid-19 RBD, leading to more van der Wals contacts, according to “Structural and Functional Basis of SARS-CoV-2 Entry by Using Human ACE2”, by Qihui Wang and others. Greater binding affinity. This says something about Covid-19’s “optimization”. Three O-glycans surrounding the furin cleavage site, to help Covid-19 run under the radar of human immune system detection. Not slightly “optimized”, but fully locked and loaded. The 21 scientists all full of logical arguments and plausible scenarios, but short on good science.

RaTG13 is a fake.
That genome was used by this person, Shi Zhengli, a chinese communist soldier, to validate the genome of her “novel” virus, cov2.
Google her name along with “Nature” magazine if you have the stomach for rumaging through her report of RaTG13.
Without the existence of RaTG13, cov2 loses it’s claim to existence. Without the existence of cov2, every virologist on the planet loses their job because every virologist on the planet has staked their reputation on the existence of cov2. That’s why every virologist on the planet will fight to keep RaTG13 as real.
For those with stamina to indulge in the “science” and origins of RaTG13, read this https://nerdhaspower.weebly.com/ratg13-is-fake.html
Good luck!
interesting, compelling, original…interest peak here.
so, critical thinking, logic, rational guesses..etc.
let me set this on the table for discussion.
preface…the OP goes to extraordinary efforts to refuse the ratg13 virus/shi parent. in terms of the argument, I don’t feel this is unauthentic at all, given the OP has developed very sound hypothesis (aka, the detective) to ignore shi’s ratg13 origin story.
but I do have questions about that…at least 3
1. ratg13 was sequenced in 2013 by more than just shi. 6 other international labs had virus samples and DID sequence that virus. I will be glad to send links to those…and yes, they were published in science papers. I will note those works attributed to Chinese virologists were taken down by the CCP (apparently) but you can still find them thanks to the way back machine.
2. almost ALL bat corona virus that have been sequenced are no longer stored and preserved…the digital genomic image AND records are stored as it is vastly more efficient AND safe AND far more inexpensive…that ratg13 was not preserved should not be shocking nor unusual.
3. let me quote here so we can tackle this last one
“If her statement is true, then how could she possibly overlook this extremely interesting finding of RaTG13, something that clearly has the potential to infect humans? If this RaTG13 was discovered SEVEN years ago, why did Shi not publish this astonishing finding earlier? Why did she decide to publish such a sequence only when the current outbreak took place and people started questioning the origin of the Wuhan coronavirus?”
it’s a very good question …and yes there is a rational sound argument that would consider there is some funny business about publishing… sort of…I think this very much exaggerates what typically happens…and there are other explanations that are just as rational than pure conspiracy.
a. as mentioned above, the genomic sequence WAS sequenced AND published in 2013 for ratg13..by 7 other independent researchers. as science papers goes, the first publishers get the spotlight. there would be no brownie points for shi to follow up…nor would anyone else…the paper published face credit to the 7, not shi…dollar late sort of thing. next is the reality she operates within CCP rules. it very easy to imagine for reasons we can depend on if even we don’t know as fact, the CCP may have decided FOR HER what and if any of her work on ratg13 would be publicized.. next, if there was an agenda to use ratg13 as some template or to synthesize some of the properties of it and combine them into SARSs either GOF or bioweapon (can we agree the distinction seems barely noticeable at this point in reality?), then there certainly would be a reason not to publish …particularly since the conditions even for l4 lab security becomes enormously controlled. AND such a publication would result ina request for full peer review and thus the entire “study” subject to international prying eyes and criticisms.
I think the op makes great arguments about the notion of the other two corona candidates…I believe the military unit in CCP is also highly suspect as this would be likely in their in lane, just as it is in the US!
but to dismiss ratg13 outright as framed in the argument isn’t entirely persuasive.
at this point I am not willing to throw any of the candidates out off the table of inquiry..
lastly…I should have made this number 4 above. so here it is, coming in late as I think it through.
if GOF study is to understand emerging pathogens, we can also not be nieve to understand the same studies are used to
militarize the pathogen
gain a huge advantage by designing vaccines with the trillion dollar budgets that they potentially locate!!
so there may have been BOTH a military secret reason not to publish ratg13 until forced to do so AND a secrecy intellectual property reason not to publish details about every aspect of what ratg13 studies were engaged in. not publishing the sequence as it turns out however, was beyond the control of shi and handlers ultimately. 7 other researchers did that in 2013 as I stated.
so along these lines, what would be the benefit of shi publishing “late” the ratg13 connection just as the pandemic becomes known?
THAT actually becomes a very interesting question. my point here is that the op might be right about ratg13 having nothing to do with c19 and was used similar to the frozen imported salmon story reported by CCP…but I do question the obvious error the op makes about the existence or invention of ratg13…that would mean since 2013 the CCP has been performing a misinformation op on a future c19 virus AND roped in 7 other researchers to give it cover. plausible? sure…odds that’s the explanation..unlikely
