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…

Ha!
Question for anyone on Truth Social:
How do you delete/block a “follower”? I just got on and 2 people immediately followed me. Have no idea who they are. I’ve gone to the Help page, searched the web, and still no answers.
Thanks in advance!
On your profile page that shows # ur followers. Tap on that then tap the person who is following you. You’ll see 3 dots beside the purple Follow button. Tap on the 3 dots. Your choices are there.
THANK YOU!!
We do not have to be “followers” here at the treehouse to view your post, but on Truth Social someone needs to “follow” you to read your post.
What is your purpose for joining TS, only to read post or to post you “good” content at TS?
I just got on there today, so trying to figure it out. 🤷♀️ Never been on Twitter or Facebook, so just taking it one step at a time.
I appreciate your sharing the experience.
I just got on too, and am doing the same…driving around getting the lay of the land…so to speak.
I also got immediate followers and am reading their content before I make any moves..
And…I am not on any other social media either..
When I first got on Truth Social, I started following who the big shots were following, starting with Devin Nunes.I mute anyone promoting trains, I am only there for content.
I don’t like trains either. Not too keen on ppl pushing products too. A few exceptions of course = Poso pushing My Pillow. 👍🏼 😀
You have been targeted. Don’t be alarmed. Don’t resist.

The law is whatever the left can get away with.
Prosecuting someone without a real legal basis: MTG “insurrection” ban
Letting a convicted BLM vote fraud criminal go free by dropping charges with no justification.
The law is meaningless. Only political force can stop the left. That would be the GOP.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/04/charges-dropped-memphis-black-lives-matter-founder-convicted-illegal-voter-registration-will-not-serve-six-year-sentence/
Charges have been dropped against the founder of Black Lives Matter Memphis who was convicted of illegal voter registration, despite the fact that she was already sentenced to six years in prison.
Tennessee prosecutors dropped all charges against Pamela Moses on Friday.
Moses was sentenced to six years and one day in prison in January for her 2019 scheme.
MTG’s testimony, for 3 hours, did not go well,..for the OTHER side.
They tried to say anyone citing “1776” was using “dogwhistle/codespeak” to incite violence/insurrection/revolution.
MTG pointed out the Georgia State Seal, clearly on display on the wall behind the Judge, has “1776” on it.
They have no legal case, and they are doing a GREAT job, of making it clear that they have NO case.
I really think this whole strategy they developed of
A) blackflag op, to make the J6 protest appear like something else.
B) the arrest and treatment of the J6 prisoners, along with the Unselect committee “work” to cast that “something else” as an “armed insurrection, attempting to destroy Democracy”
C) in order to prevent Candidates from campaigning on 2020 election as being a steal, by trying to say anyone who says election was rigged is an “insurrectuonist” will ultimately not only fail, but backfire.
“Fanatacism consists of redoubling your effort, while forgetting your aim.”
One of the many pluses of TDS, is that it ‘triggers’ the fanatics into this exact behavior; they redouble their effort, forgetting that their aim is to delude most Americans into believing and parroting their nonsense.
In redoubling their effort, the nonsense is clearly exposed.
Lefties always use the word dogwhistle. They say only dogs can hear a dogwhistle, so I always remind them of that.
Absolutely correct that was a total farce against MTG yesterday. She made the lawfare eunuchs look pathetic. Still risk here for her though. The issue now goes to that 2 faced limp wristed governor who allowed Georgia’s vote count to be hijacked in 2020
It is a talking point for their propaganda machine, MSM, and a distraction from other more fruitful if less public operations. Expect it all this year. Everything.

Once one accepts the fact the United States is now under a Communist/Fascist/Totalitarian government of Power and Control. It all starts to make sense. Thinking about what is Constitutional as to what is prevailing makes for frustration and angst.
This is not about right or wrong. This is about Power and Control. If it is about legal, Trump would be sitting in the Oval Office.

Love it that Putin is laughing or smiling while in the company of losers, but looks steady and sure into the eyes of another man.
Putin is and has been to Russia as Trump is and has been to the United States. Putin has the mental make-up to change when he has to change and grow.
I have Armenian friends whose ancestors migrated to the United States as a result of Turk genocide during the early 1900’s. Stating about 20-years ago any migration out of Armenia shifted from the United States to Moscow. I asked why?
It was explained to me the greater opportunity now in Moscow as opposed to the United States. I don’t know how wide-spread; however, it is what I was told by several Armenians who had previously migrated to the United States. However, if it was today, they would migrate to Moscow.

Exxon is banning the LGBTQ pride flag from being flown outside its Houston corporate office during pride month in June.
https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/exxon-bans-lgbtq-black-lives-matter-flags-from-being-displayed-at-company-flagpole-report
“Employees at the Houston chapter of Exxon’s internal PRIDE organization have reportedly responded by refusing to participate in Houston’s June 25 Pride celebration.”
That will show those phobes!
“Trickle Down Liberty”..
Many people I know are disgusted with the blm and pride flags. If the lgbtq group wants to regain some level of respect, it needs to drop the btq letters and then begin doing things that show real pride – i still haven’t seen a list of their accomplishments to help MAGA!
I have yet to reconcile within my head why people’s preferences for sexual partners should be given parades and month long celebrations.. Why? What does any of that have to do with anyone except the consenting adults participating in it?
It’s rather embarrassing, in my opinion. And pretty dumb. Yet it continues to be thrown in everyone’s faces everyday and with the now trendy trans movement, it’s even more prominently thrown in peoples faces. It needs to stop.
I agree with all you wrote, Cjzak, except your last sentence. Every time they parade their obscene outfits and obnoxious behavior down main street or put up videos whining about pronouns or not being allowed to push their sexual activities and ideology into the minds of children, more people back away from them and come our way.
It is part of a larger plan to destroy the social bonds that have held together our wondrous nation, and other successful western democracies. Traditional nuclear family ideal, check,
Energy independence, check,
Sound dollar, check,
Manfacturing-based middle class, check,
Supply chains, check,
Loyal FBI and national security network, check,
Accountability for Leftists who violate the law, check,
Censorship and imprisonments for those who resist, check,
Free and fair elections, check,
Independent free press: msm, check, rest of internet, in progress.
Believe it or not, we’ve always had ‘normal’ black people, ‘normal’ women and every other group. Not everybody demands a parade and a stinking medal for being who they are. They just ‘are.’
These ‘woke’ idiots give every group they touch a bad name! I think that is intentional, to make us all fight with each other.
These losers don’t speak for everybody.. they speak for the lunatic fringe.
Very true.
I don’t think it is as much “who” they are as it is “what” they have become. “Who” is at birth. “What” is conditioned. The hope is the present “What” can be changed back to a more authentic “who”. It is one of the worries of the Left-wing evil.
Come on, Man. Don’t you have a nose ring? LOL
It’s not about sexual preference, it’s about money, power and control; all part of a much bigger operation.
I am old enough to remember when the homosexual community just wanted to be legal and marry the person of their choice. Now we have to actively support and celebrate their homosexuality or we are criticized. How about this: I do not give one whit what happens in your bedroom and in a civilized society you are expected to keep it there.
In the beginning they told us that all they want is equal treatment. Equal treatment has morphed into preferential treatment. That pattern runs true for all those who claim victim hood.
‘They’ not being the actual group, but those who purport to speak out on their behalf. Like those white college kids and professors who run around screaming about how black lives matter !
What a bunch of “maroons!”
Rationale, Judgment, commonsense is not as prevalent as we may wish to think.
“Victim hood” is easily conditioned and indoctrinated. It takes strong character to resist it.
And a family that does not endorse it at home.
Sounds like a win win situation.
Now they should take down that nonsense at US embassies. It’s a bit unprofessional IMO.
Very unprofessional, but its a great big fat alert to the type of people employed there. The government has been taken over.
Don’t really care what or where they do what they do, just quit shoving it down my throat….or anyone else’s.
Most LGBTQ…XYZ people want to ban oil companies, oil drilling, oil pipelines and the use of oil and natural gas in homes so why would ExxonMobil lick the boot that kicks them? It’s not going to change anything anyway!

Yesterday at a Target store, I was standing behind a mother who was buying a soccer ball for her c. 7-year old son.
The scene depressed me.
My mind was screaming: “Your son should be playing BASEBALL!!! It’s SPRINGTIME!”
I hate soccer, ever since an immigrant from Hungary tried to impose it upon my 5th Grade class c. 1959 or so. (It was being pushed as a cheap sport for poorer parishes: no real equipment needed outside of a ball.
e.g.
“…At its heart, soccer is the perfect socialist sport. That’s why it will never catch on among Americans the way football or basketball has — regardless of how hard ESPN or ESPN Deportes tries to force feed it to us. Soccer is a redistributive dreamer’s delight, with most of the potential risk-reward strategy of the sport removed by rule. It is a self-esteem cornucopia, where a blistering rout of, say, 2-0 seems so close in the score book. No one’s feelings get hurt at 2-0. And on and on the socialist feel goes.
A liberal’s only complaint with soccer is that it entails such low scoring that there’s no point trying to have a youth league where no one keeps score. It’s 0-0. We all know that already. You can’t even pretend not to know the score. Then again, 0-0 is the perfect score for a “no score” league, I guess.
Consider other ways in which it is the quintessential socialist sport:
Soccer is biggest where the “national teams” are the main sports focus of a nation. Hey, you can’t get much more socialist than that. And everyone on every street and in every town pulls for the same team. Wow. Isn’t that exciting? Whom do you pull for? Oh yeah, the national team….”

Play Lacrosse. Baseball is dying.
Baseball needs another Joe DiMaggio and it’ll pick up where it left off.
<Baseball needs another Joe DiMaggio…>
Where has he gone? 🙂
Word man…..👍👍
Johnny, don’T you suppose We would suspect any gifted person would be on some sort of performance enhancement drugs?
And legalizing sports gambling will destroy football. Not that there wasn’t some funny stuff suspected in some games, it was not in the forefront of most fan thinking.
For me, the ugly people who play the sport of football ruined it for me and I used to love it. Don’t like the fact that people idolize criminals….Oh, I know that they aren’t all criminals, but a lot of the big names are nothing but.
It is also amazing what it takes for the league to actually fire these people.
Joltin’ Joe has left and gone away, hey hey hey.
Take down the lights (baseball is meant to be played in the sun!) and get rid of designated hitters (there are no D’s or H’s in TEAM).
Make Baseball Great Again!
Return to the 1967 rule book. Raise the mound to its original height and go with the original strike zone.
Baseball missed a huge opportunity after the failed Olympics. It hadn’t really recovered from chasing fans away with BLM.
I used to enjoy watching baseball because there’s no clock. The game has its own pace and rhythm.
Nitpick: Pitchers and batters have clocks on them.
And what’s with the digital strike zone nonsense? Learning an umpires strike zone is part of the game.
And learning to frame pitches to expand the strike zone is all part of being a good defensive catcher.
Ohtani should be covered more thoroughly. Modern day Babe Ruth.
An observation: most football players in high school play Lacrosse in the off season. Lacrosse is football with out the pads and a stick…(Lacrosse Mom, here…)
Briefly attended a Christian School that played soccer but not football because of “injuries”. Truth was they had more injuries in soccer than in football. Just different types. But I bet most could have been avoided if they bothered to care for the field. Did keep you guessing which way the ball would bounce. (And which way your ankle would turn.)
Football is far more entertaining than kickball.
Both ruined by politics. No time for that junk.
When that banner went up, I said “see ‘ya” to both the Red Sox & MLB
And that mustn’t be easy for a Red Sox fan. Red Sox loyalty is legendary!
Racist garbage
Keep Our Own Kids Safe!
I am very saddened to see that I am the first to give your memory of Rush a thumbs up.
That was a great parody. And every bit true as well. My experience was years before Rush made it big.
Soccer is good exercise. Play midfield, and you’re running from one end of the field to the other all day long.
But in The States, lacrosse has definitely taken over, at least up here in the Northeast. It’s like soccer with a stick.
Lax is a great sport, and was and has been THE sport in many parts of NYS for many decades!
Like hockey is for the Canuckity-nucks!!
We were thinking of baseball for our 3 year old. Someone then said soccer. The “goal” is to get them tired and to sleep at end of day. Baseball they sit on the bench half the game or in the outfield kind of standing around. Soccer, they are running around tiring themselves out. And of course they want to be in some action. Soccer is kinda sorta some constant action.
Also, you can practice baseball fundamentals them at home, hitting, catching, etc then when older get them into it when they can handle the inaction.
So you think. What really happens is that the kids build all this stamina, so after a while, not only do they not get tired out, they start to out-pace you.
Trust me.
Swimming is the great ‘exhaustifier.’
My nephew who was All American at Berkeley (1980ish) said that to create a water polo team, you find the 9 biggest men possible and teach them to swim.
Yep. I always thought of water polo as an iceberg – you only see a small percentage of the game. What happens below the waterline is the key
baseball practice has a lot of sprints and so forth. Maybe not for the tykes, but high school and so forth.
What’s REALLY depressing? The NFL, NBA, and MLB. Each one of those formerly interesting sports needs a Commissioner in the mold of Ron DeSantis. Instead, they’ve all got Commissioners in the mold of the woke Disney Chief. I have lost all interest in those sports of MY youth … and have adopted the sport of my children’s youth … soccer. I have become a Uuugge EPL fan and literally know every player on all 20 teams. There are NO commercial interruptions which make American sports long, tedious, irritating and unwatchable. And if you truly understand the game … it’s a LOT more than guys kicking a ball and flopping like a fish when “touched”.
and BTW … every American Sport needs “relegation”. That’s whereby the 3 WORST teams in the league get booted down to the minor leagues every season. This is what happens in the EPL. What is more Capitalist than that!? Losing businesses that lack talent get booted … and only the winners survive? In a league such as that … my Oakland A’s would be put out of their misery … and they wouldn’t be begging the Communist Mayor of Oakland for a new “green” stadium … that “accommodates” homeless and BLM “communities”. They’d just be relegated to the Minors … with The Isotopes.
Major college sports are just as bad. I refuse to watch any of them. I don’t support people who hate me.
Agreed. My kids got me into EPL. Love it. Just got back from 11 yr. old’s game and now watching Spurs.
I always thought of soccer as glorifying mediocrity, and thereby accommodating socialist ideals.
Your ignorance is painfully astounding
Ouch.
Pretty good insights. For me soccer is just a poorly designed sport. By forbidding the use of our body’s most effective parts (hands and arms), it is literally too hard to do, even for professionals. A third of everything attempted even by the pros doesn’t work out. Dribble for awhile. Pass. Lose it to the other team. Pass. Success! Pass again. Lost to the other team. It is fun to play, but as a spectator sport, it’s like watching a Pachinko machine.
Once you truly understand the tactics and the level of skill … you UNDERSTAND the game … and it becomes truly enjoyable to watch.
Good on you Kenji trying to ‘splain “The beautiful game.” to our friends here at TCT!
It’s likely that OM and like-minded other’s will not understand the sport or appreciate it, but that’s o.k. as long as they are will to “go to the mattresses” for this country so their children and their children’s children and all of their posterity can live a life of Freedom!
Maybe,
However I grew up in Scotland and soccer was an integral part of every town of any size.
As a young lad my Grandfather took me to an international game with 137,000 in attendance.
It was an incredible experience, one still remembered over fifty years later.
Our sons played at a decent level, one enjoyed an academic and athletic scholarship ( Soccer) at a quality University.
From an purely athletic perspective few sports compare to soccer.
One can be clinically obese and still play baseball. Not so soccer.
I too played a bit and hung them up in my late forties.
The fitness acquired over those playing years has stood me in good stead.
That said, the game has become “ Americanized “ the big clubs are franchises, and it is all about marketing.
Qatar bought the rights to the World Cup, many lives were lost in the construction of the Stadiums. Slave labour was the name of the game.
Globalists are cashing in big time.
Not much changes..late in the 19th Century wealthy U.K industrialist’s owned teams, and the players.
Is the game socialist at its core…possibly.
But the money made at the high end is stratospheric.
I have a game on T.V. at the minute…it’s boring, and the announcers are “flogging a dead horse”
The T.V. is going off, and we are heading out with the dogs.
Cheers!
Many thanks to you and the others for the fine discussion!
For me and my 1950’s- early 1960’s friends, baseball and our summer lives were much similar to what one sees in the movie “The Sandlot,” i.e. we did not play with uniforms on school or organized teams and adults around to spoil things!
We played baseball by ourselves – no adults in sight, except for the occasional old-timers who wandered by during their daily walks and stopped to watch us – and we had the most fun imaginable!
Cheers to you!
And who remembers ‘wiffle’ ball? Great for concrete patio spaces and smaller areas.
If it wasn’t for soccer there would be no Soccer Moms. If there were no Soccer Moms there would be no Libtard wacko’s screwing things up as they most often do.
My grandson is playing flag football this spring until summer camps start back up. His team won 50-0 last night.
I had no problem with that at all : )
You must be watching the clean version
While sports preferences vary widely, I’m heartened to see a kid outside in the fresh air and sunshine doing any sort of sport or play. Builds strong bodies, minds and character and gets their face out of their phone.
Soccer has already grabbed a big hold in the U.S.A. But, for the record, I agree with you.
Baseball is hated by true socialists because it triggers feelings in little kids or in their moms. A kid is isolated in right field because he is the poorest fielder. Muh feelings. Someone has to bat last, again muh feelings. In soccer a little kid can run around like a lost goose and the kid and his mom both believe he/she is doing something.
I thought that we already had enough to worry about, what with the de-construction of the USA and the world at-large for that matter, and now we’re having a conversation about politically correct or incorrect sports?!
Puhh-leeez!!
Greetings!
No, not really.
Semiotics is the analysis of symbols and signs: Umberto Eco and others expanded the linguistic origin of the study to include larger “signs” in a society, e.g. the decline of baseball – America’s Pastime – among younger people and the population in general and the concomitant rise of soccer…or video games and what such developments may signal for that society.
I come from Europe and played, coached, watched soccer all my life. I think it is futile to single out soccer as the only sport that is like socialism or government controlled entertainment. The reality is that today ALL sports are political tools and have all been compromised by politics one way or another. Look at all the russian athletes being banned from competing, look at the teams qualifying for the soccer Champions League final, 2 teams from Spain and 2 from England, both being compensated for their country’s positions on the war on Ukraine. Germany’s top team Bayer Munich and England’s Chelsea (by defacto Russian due to its owner) were taken out. There are trillions at stake and, unfortunately, sports have been so politicized that the pure, fun, entertainment aspect of competition has been completely adultered. American sports are not any different, they are all “controlled entertainment” just like we have “controlled republican” opposition in congress. It’s all an illusion, there are trillions at stake and sports are now the main tool for government control. Sports are the new opium of the masses–a politically motivated tool, controlled entertainment, designed to brainwash you and your children. Sports used to be for those who played them–If you don’t play a sport or some type of physical activity for the sheer fun of doing it, but do waste hours and hours consuming sports on TV (the sport itself makes no difference) you are also living under socialism.
Yes, let us not have a game that requires skill and stamina. Just giants who don’t need to stretch to score a goal in basketball or perhaps a game that takes four hours to play four fifteen minute quarters and only has about three minutes of action per quarter. I thought cricket was boring.
This is disturbing. Also, is it shocking that so many people were coerced into taking a shot ( so=called vaccine) against their will, by threatening them with loss of their livelihood. and their being no recourse for any subsequent health issues.
https://amgreatness.com/2022/04/21/cardiologist-says-30-percent-of-vaccinated-pilots-would-fail-health-screenings-due-to-vaccine-injuries/
And if you sue, the government will say “it was your own choice”.
Reference: Germany and Australia.
We already see all the excess mortality going on from “prompt” adverse effects. Wait a decade to see what the shutdown of immunity against cancer will do.
It really is amazing. Both in that there really are a lot of people evil enough to have done this but also that just about everybody sat around and let them get away with it.
I don’t think people are really processing it yet.
I recently ran into a 20 year old store clerk who was seeing a cardiologist for heart injury from the shots. He understands he was injured by the shots, although he wanted to say it was maybe a family history of heart problems, but there was no sense of anger at all. He was cheery. The idea that his injury was due to fraud, or intent, or anything except a sort of cosmic accident, totally escaped him.
Brainwashed. We’ve seen how effective and easy it is to kill people without a gun. Biological and corporate warfare are effective killers. Lawyers and the judicial system make it ‘legal’. Cops enforce ‘the law’. America.
In other words, don’t ask questions, just do as I tell you….that is the new normal.
Sad . . . The 20 year old has no idea what this most likely means for the rest of his/her life, clueless. Maybe they even feel a bit special, taking one on the chin for the cause so to speak.
But you are right, ppl not really processing – yet.
“Fear” is a great motivator whether real or fake.
Never in all my years and all my travels have I ever seen so many adults afraid…..of so many things that they can control if they want to.
It might have been your choice unless it was get the shot or find another job. Not enough listened to their own body….instead of injecting all the chemicals & nobody knew what would happen after the crap was injected.
And it appears those who got the shot are the ones getting sick all the time. Much more than those who didn’t have the shot…..even the old ones who didn’t.

Two more Russian generals in command positions in South Ukraine may be hors de combat as a result of a Ukrainian special military action that destroyed their command post near the Kherson salient. Some speculate that the command post was placed too close to Ukrainian lines.
Likely this wasn’t foolish but presaged an imminent attack towards Odessa. Russian tactics are to position assets close to the front lines prior to initiating an attack so the supply lines are shorter as you take ground. Stalin had done the same thing when Hitler surprised him with Operation Barbarosa in June of ’41
Ukraine INTEL nor Military is up to the task nor have the resources to do the targeting.
This was Western INTEL (SIGINT and satellites) linked to ground or drone launched Precision Munition such as a Hell-Fire Missile. Russian Generals also may not have gotten or believed the memo on cell-phone usage.
Living permanently inside the beltway DC, buddy buddy with david frum, writer for the moscow times which is run by some EU dude from Amsterdam, author, Aslund, is as deep state as you can get.
Nuf said.
Aslund is the messenger here, nothing more
Hmm. IMO it’s American special forces doing what they’re experts at.
Ukraine is a cesspool. We do not know what exactly is happening there but we know that it is connected to the West. Why would Zelensky keep the DPR from going independant. He was told not to by the West. When did Ukraine start it’s terror on civilians. The DPR had a referendum and it was clear that they wanted indepedency in 2014 .The Ukraineons under Zelenzky with Western support denied their vote only to keep them guessing where the next mortar will fall, It is so clear that Zelensky is an absolute bastard thats been used by the west. Big tech is responsible. If I ever have to change nationality it will be Russian. Putin have balls and he understands. Some things just have to be done.
I saw a video of Zelensky talking to Ukrainian soldiers in a forested setting a short time after his election. He was open about Donbas’ autonomy, he seemed to agree with it. One soldier stepped forward and strongly disagreed with him, then all the soldiers also, and one ‘citizen’ (Azov?) also aggressively disagreed with him.
Zelensky is an actor, not a leader. He’s not used to people disagreeing with him and he caves in, easily. IMO, Zelensky is not in charge of anything and he’s terrified of his military. And America got involved and the rest is history.
Zelensky hasn’t quit although he knows he lost this war. He’s waiting for the money.
Zelensky is the USA’s Biden. However, Zelensky is lucid whereas Biden is brain-dead.
Zelensky is very very wealthy, with his 35 million dollar estate in Florida.
I believe he’s worth around $5 billion
Putin is a nightmare for globalism.
Lots of lies in this.
First, the laughably ugly idea that a Russian run referendum in a newly conquered territory in any means way represents what people want.
Second, the idea that fighting Russia’s puppet forces in a Ukrainian province is terrorism. Self defense is no terrorism.
Yesterday, my post from a reputable, long established military news website was called “obvious propaganda.” This post is what obvious propaganda really looks like.
Zelensky won the Ukrainian presidency wit almost 3/4 of the vote, against an incumbent. And, he’s leading his nation’s self defense against a clumsy, brutal bully who learned his brutality as a KGB Officer.
OLd, now this is funny.
Do you imagine say, Wisconsin had a fair election?, Or you go ahead and show me one of 50 states that had a federal election that wasn’t meddled with.
Self defense in the USA is an expensive proposition too, ask the young man in Eau Clair WI how much it cost him to defend himself.
And lastly, I agree with yesterday’s post, you are spewing obvious propoganda here.
Zelensky was installed just like dementia joe. I am sure you as a realist can figure this stuff out, but the $15/ hour they left pays you is worth more to you than your dignity.
Make 1776 Great Again !
I sent this letter to Senator Toomey (PA) a few days ago regarding the Jan 6 political prisoners. Below is his non-response response:
I am very concerned about the Jan 6th political prisoners being held incarcerated for so long without benefit of a trial. Their Constitutional rights are being violated. I understand they are being manipulated as their hearing and trial dates keep changing. It is quite clear this is political. The majority of them are charged with non violent crimes and yet BLM rioters who commit arson are allowed to go free. Please work to get these political prisoners to a fair trial.
This is outrageous what is being done to them. We clearly have a two tier “justice” system.
We are losing our country.

Thank you for contacting me about the events of January 6, 2021. I appreciate hearing from you.
On January 6, 2021, the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate met in joint session to certify the votes of the Electoral College. While Congress was trying to fulfill this constitutional duty, throngs of protestors broke through the line of law enforcement officers working to protect the Capitol and laid siege to the building. Massively outnumbered, the Capitol Police were overwhelmed and the mob stormed and vandalized the Capitol. Amidst the ensuing riot, several people died, including a rioter who breached a window in an apparent attempt to pursue members of the House. Officers were pummeled, pushed down stairs, and assaulted with bear and pepper spray. Over 140 sustained physical injuries ranging from concussions and swollen limbs to cracked ribs and smashed spinal discs. The actions of these rioters are an absolute disgrace. The law enforcement officers who helped secure the Capitol are patriots, and I am grateful for their service.
On January 13, 2021, the U.S. House of Representatives impeached President Trump for his actions leading up to the siege. One month later, on February 13, 2021, I voted to convict President Trump on the House of Representatives’ article of impeachment. Because of President Trump’s conduct, for the first time in American history, the transfer of presidential power was not peaceful. President Trump’s desperate attempts to stay in office undermined the foundations of our republic, betrayed the confidence of millions who voted for him, and required a vote to convict.
According to the Department of Justice (DOJ), more than 570 individuals have been arrested for their actions on January 6, and news reports indicate that several of these individuals remain in custody and are detained in Washington, D.C. D.C. officials have indicated that these defendants are being held in “restrictive housing,” which has sparked criticism by several public officials who are opposed to solitary confinement. For example, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) described this approach to detaining rioters as “a form of punishment that is cruel and psychologically damaging” and worried that officials may be using harsh detainment conditions to “break [the rioters] so that they will cooperate.” Please be assured that I understand your views and will keep them in mind should legislation related to such detainment conditions come before the full Senate.
Thank you again for your correspondence. Do not hesitate to contact me in the future if I can be of assistance.
Sincerely,
Pat Toomey
U.S. Senator, Pennsylvania
TY for posting will spread his response far and wide.
Could he possibly care any less?
Wow, what a liar.. there is no way Toomey believes any of that crap..
It’s a form letter, boilerplate
Prepared centrally by the Senate / Congress
If you wrote to any other Senator or Congressman, you’d get the same letter, same summary of events
At least he’s not running for re-election.
Scum.
Lying scum to be sure.
These criminal liars do not deserve any respect. It is obvious, this clown and his bunch are corrupt, and are parroting the lies.
This is why writing these fools is a waste of time. Canned, lying responses, or no response at all, tells you all you need to know.
The only people who died, were killed by the unaccountable cops.
There are few Reps, saying anything, or even attempting to do anything, about this treason. What these 535 or so corrupt SOB’s have done is exactly that. Treason.
Projection 101 is what I read in his response. It wasnt him anyways, and it was 100 per cent his woke, lying handlers, that copied that response. Ill bet a dime to a dollar, most of them would respond in this way, in similar words.
Because its a handout, or something to that effect, a blueprint, for what their story is…..
BS, from the first word to the last. Pure hoss puckey.
These people are evil.
They are spiting these brave people because they want rid of Trump
I’d take this non-responsive response and make visible corrections.
”… Throngs of protesters [should read: throngs of FIB provocateurs] broke through the line of law enforcement officers working to protect Capitol [should read: holding the Capitol doors open and greeting visitors] … Amidst the ensuing riot, several people died [were assassinated] including a rioter [American citizen and veteran exercising her First Amendment rights] who breached a window [who in an attempt to prevent violence on the part of the government provocateurs at her back was herself held up by bad actors and pushed through a window] ….

Go all the way to the end, repeating his useless verbiage, “Thank you for your correspondence. You have done an excellent job of proving that you have neither the inclination, probity nor the intelligence to look at the actual facts before spewing this national narrative, now known by all conscientious and thinking Americans to be patently false.”
Sincerely,
Truth-seeker
Experience? Does it even count in our times anymore? Did the world tke a tumble for worse. It did indeed. Experience wil get us out of here only if we apply it thoroughly.
If you are inclined to go down the Disney “Reedy Creek” Improvement District rabbit hole………………..all kinds of interesting ramifications for Disney and others………..
A whopping 39.6 square miles of land area.
Dive into the RCID; it’s an empire unto itself. Own taxing authority, own utility rates, own development approval process, an independent functioning government unto itself.
https://www.rcid.org/
District Map:
The debt incurred by the Disney corporation as it stands now does not shift to the counties.
The property owned by Disney World in Florida is still private property and the cost to maintain and upkeep roads etc will be still be Disney’s responsibility.
For example county trucks will not be seen in Disney World sweeping and cleaning the streets, this cost will be borne by Disney just as it is borne by all private developments ( private gated residential communities do this also).
There are already many many private developments in the state of Florida, most are gated residential communities, where the residents pay for their own road repairs and upkeep and even their own safety patrols.
Here in Colorado the private gated communities pay also for all of the snow removal themselves.
I do no think Disney World is going to have city, county sewer repair trucks roaring through the theme park at the will of the county nor will it want to see the county sheriff’s vehicles driving at will through Disney World.
This will not happen but they are trying to scare people into thinking that the county will be paying for everything when it will not.
If Disney turns the cost of the repairs over to the state and the county they give 24/7 access of the roads and the property also, to the public.
If Taxpayers pay the cost of the upkeep they get to drive on the roads.
Thank you for a very informative response. Curious about the tax assessment issues, any insight?

Watch the French election. Same day in person voting, paper ballots, voter ID and same day results. No machines. Not a bad model although I would also recommend signature verification, thumb prints and encrypted ballots as extra security based on the level of fraud we presently have.
I was talking to my relatives in France and told them how the American press and so many over here were praising France’s election laws and process because of the voter ID, no machines and hand counting etc.
They just laughed and said hand counting can be counted any way the counters want it to be and cheating is cheating and happens all the time.
It is much much harder to cheat in France and we make it so easy to cheat here and things MUST change in America but evil people will always try to fix the system to their favor and we can never relax our vigilance or depend on any system completely.
We The People must always be the system check.
The only way to improve the vote system there, would be different color ballots per candidate. They cheat in Europe by putting stacks of other peoples ballots on top of the other candidate. Le Pen could have a 100 votes, and they would put 1 Macron on top etc and call those 101 votes for Macron. If ballots were different colors, they couldn’t do that
Double count all ballots, counting by each party until there is agreement. I volunteer.
As The Brietbart doctrine, and his image grace our homescreen, I reccomend reading todays AmericanThinker article
“Politics is downstream from culture,…but what is culture downstream from?”
by Deborah C Tyler.
As a plus, a line I had somehow missed;
“if underpants can’t stop a fart, how can a cloth mask stop a virus?”
Its a good, well written article, worth the read, IMHO.
That was an excellent article Dutchman.
And Families have been very important in holding cultures together in the Religion/Culture/Political aspect of civilization.
Break families apart and every institution or system a civilization depends on will fail.
Just interviewed a man who has a (formerly Dem) son in Seattle.
He said that Biden has turned his son into a Repub. He gets it now>>> Democrats are insane.
More “obvious propaganda” from Putin lovers.
Guess a nerve was struck eh old fart, I mean realist.

Turkey Bureau Chief for @MiddleEastEye says no Russian overflights to Syria
Have a funny feeling DJT’s endorsement of JD Vance might have come from a push from Peter Theil. No proof. JJT has few BIG $ tech guys behind him. Theil also supported JD and of course AH hannity has pushed Vance. R DJT could use 10 like RICK Grenell who never seems to dissapoint on MAGA agenda. Hannity, Graham and countless others all seem to be controlled by $ or other self interest objectives. Navvaro is another one DJT can count on.
“Trump’s actual policy proposals, such as they are, range from immoral to absurd.”

Egypt and Turkey are about to break into civil war. Inflation/food etc They will cozy up to Biden to get aid

wesley clark lied about so called Ukrainian history. Every well educated person knows that. He also never mentioned about genocide that Ukrainian nazis did against Jews and Polish people in region of today’s west Ukraine. Actually half of today’s Ukraine belongs to Poland, and than during the WW2 German and Ukrainian nazis killed Polish people and took land from them. They killed all Polish people in one of biggest cities in today’s Ukraine is Lvov, pure old Polish city. Poland twill never forgive that. The other half of Ukraine, the eastern part, is inhabited by ethnic Russian who speaks Russian only and want nothing to do with so called Ukrainian nation. As about Kosovo everybody knows that it was for over thousand years inhabited by Christian Serbs. When muslim ottoman Turks occupied, Albanian muslims who came with Turks terrorized Christians in that region for over 300 years. Albanians also were also on Hitler’s side in WW2 and some horrible war crimes. But today general Clarke and co rewarded Muslim Albanians from Kosovo by giving them Christian land. The fact is that most of foreign IS members in terrorist Islamic State were Albanian mujahedins from Kosovo. So much for general Clark’s friends. Just look at those videos from years ago where Kosovo Albanians burning Churches around Kosovo. At least he got one thing right, yes now they do build lots of mosques in secret Christian land of Kosovo and send they children to radical Islam preachers, but he didn’t mention their plan to make Kosovo part of terrorist Islamic state. As I already wrote, educated people know those facts and when Americans recognize this general Clarke will have dark place in American history. His lies already made him a criminal in the eyes of hundreds of millions of Christians around the world. I wonder why gen Clarke did all those horrible things, isn’t he afraid of God’s punishment? Probable he isn’t true Christian who believes in God, but for his family and children’s sake he shouldn’t behaved like this, as God’s punishment comes in different ways.
Have you ever heard of a thing called; “Paragraph”?

“Russian Oligarchs Found Dead Just One Day Apart”
By Tyler Durden, 4/23/2022
At zerohedge.com
[Obviously, this is just a huge coincidence and has no relationship to Vladimir Putin’s history of eliminating dissenters or others who defy him. To think otherwise would be a smear on the former KGB LTC who is gloriously restoring its Czarist boundaries.]
“The bodies of two Russian oligarchs were found dead alongside their wives and children just one day apart, according to media reports.”
“The first was Vladislav Avayev, formerly vice president of Gazprombank. He was found killed by a gunshot wound in his Moscow apartment on Monday, Russia’s state-run Tass news agency reported. Police are looking into a theory that Avayev shot his wife and children, and then himself.”
“Although the names of the victims were not included in a public statement from the Russian government, Tass said an unnamed source later confirmed their identities.”
“Investigators said in their statement that they believe Avayev shot his wife and daughter, and then himself.”
“The second oligarch was found killed in Spain, some 2,000 miles away.
His name was Sergei Protosenya and he was found stabbed to death with his wife and daughter. Local media outlets claimed he had been found with a bloodied knife and axe by his side. Prior to his death, Protosenya had been the vice president and chief accountant of Novatek, a major gas company with close ties to Gazprombank.”
A poignant moment during the AB2223 protest in Abby Wicks neighborhood, here at the Safeway at 6310 College Ave, Oakland, CA. This was after protestors and their vehicles got a barrage of eggs coming from folks at Safeway and a nearby bakery. Exciting times…
Stop the federal/state mandate/emergency act rallies in Harrisburg PA and Albany, NY, currently live streaming. The PA rally is about an hour away, 3:30EDT.
Harrisburg, now, won’t see a politician standing on a ledge many feet in the air addressing a crowd..
A trucker will. America.
As I recall, it was the Saudis funding climate activists to block US offshore drilling in the 70’s and 80’s. Common tactic.

👀.
Does this drug permanently change physiology or somehow remain in the body?
I see this side effect: “If you have untreated HIV infection, Paxlovid may lead to some HIV medicines not working as well in the future.”
So I did a quick visual poll on the mask mandate. ABC ran a fake poll claiming 60% support reinstating the mandate.
Number of people on two Southwest flights, maybe 300 passengers, wearing masks?
About 15.
And the lady next to us wearing one when she sat down, had it under her chin after 10 minutes, and got off the plane without it.
I understand the point of your visual poll, but people who adamantly (and foolishly) believe wearing masks saves lives wouldn’t be on the plane because they view it as unsafe. So the people you see on the plane may just represent people who aren’t very concerned about masks.
Having said all that, I still think your poll has merit. I would guess the percentage of people who absolutely won’t travel by plane without a mask mandate is around 15-20% of the population. My guess is based on my visual poll of people in SoCal who still wear masks in public places or alone in their car.
Wife just flew Columbia-Atlanta-Tucson. Less than 10 masked. Nobody said anything about it.
Yep. Law of large numbers. If 60% of the public wanted forced masking more than half would be wearing them on the planes.
They aren’t.
Along with the videos showing the FBI plants and the people opening the Capitol Hill doors wide open- This is video that destroys the entire Jan 6 narrative
I’m wondering how far back these attacks on food processing plants go.
About two months ago the Taylor Farms plant in Phoenix had someone ram their car into the electrical boxes on the side of the building. Considerable damage was done but the plant was not disabled. My sources claim that the FBI came and investigated.
If it’s worth anything, sources also say the rumor going around at this plant is that the fire destroying the Salinas plant was an insurance fraud scam.
New John Durham info.:
Kingmaker – Big IF! (True)
@KingMakerFT
“Durham surprised all of us who are following the Sussmann case with a wee-hours-of-the-morning filing last night. It addresses Durham’s claimed joint venture or conspiracy that Durham argues permits introduction of otherwise hearsay evidence:
“Notably, for the first time Durham details a meeting on August 12, 2016, amongst Sussmann, the lead campaign lawyer, Marc Elias, Rodney Joffe (Tech Executive-1), and one of the founders of Fusion GPS (either Simpson or Fritsch, presumably).”
Joffe potentially committed Fraud against the gov’t, which carries a 7 year SOL.
[More segments in the link.]
And if the fraud ended with the push of the Yotaphone lies to the CIA, Durham has till early 2024 to charge Joffe.
Imagine that. Prosecution of a Hillary supported crime in the primaries. But not of Hillary, so it won’t be stopped.
Now why would Biden and his puppeteers keep Durham going?
All things considered it’s not really newsworthy considering we a re only looking at petentially hundreds of millions of deaths – without including any military actions which will surely arise from this – from famine and disease over the next couple of years. Those hundreds of millions becomes billions if fertilizers go away somehow or the gmo seed supply gets disrupted.
I think we have finally reached that future which is ignored because it’s too terrible to look upon.
Any food shortages from now on with be blamed on these events.
Regardless….
AMERICAN PHONE-TRACKING FIRM DEMO’D SURVEILLANCE POWERS BY SPYING ON CIA AND NSA
Anomaly Six, a secretive government contractor, claims to monitor the movements of billions of phones around the world and unmask spies with the press of a button.
By Sam Biddle and Jack Poulson
via The Intercept
IN THE MONTHS leading up to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, two obscure American startups met to discuss a potential surveillance partnership that would merge the ability to track the movements of billions of people via their phones with a constant stream of data purchased directly from Twitter. According to Brendon Clark of Anomaly Six — or “A6” — the combination of its cellphone location-tracking technology with the social media surveillance provided by Zignal Labs would permit the U.S. government to effortlessly spy on Russian forces as they amassed along the Ukrainian border, or similarly track Chinese nuclear submarines. To prove that the technology worked, Clark pointed A6’s powers inward, spying on the National Security Agency and CIA, using their own cellphones against them.
Virginia-based Anomaly Six was founded in 2018 by two ex-military intelligence officers and maintains a public presence that is scant to the point of mysterious, its website disclosing nothing about what the firm actually does. But there’s a good chance that A6 knows an immense amount about you. The company is one of many that purchases vast reams of location data, tracking hundreds of millions of people around the world by exploiting a poorly understood fact: Countless common smartphone apps are constantly harvesting your location and relaying it to advertisers, typically without your knowledge or informed consent, relying on disclosures buried in the legalese of the sprawling terms of service that the companies involved count on you never reading. Once your location is beamed to an advertiser, there is currently no law in the United States prohibiting the further sale and resale of that information to firms like Anomaly Six, which are free to sell it to their private sector and governmental clientele. For anyone interested in tracking the daily lives of others, the digital advertising industry is taking care of the grunt work day in and day out — all a third party need do is buy access.
Company materials obtained by The Intercept and Tech Inquiry provide new details of just how powerful Anomaly Six’s globe-spanning surveillance powers are, capable of providing any paying customer with abilities previously reserved for spy bureaus and militaries.
