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…

An essay by the Ticker Guy, on Father’s Day and masculinity.
Something he notes at the end, about Father’s Day being “subsumed” by Juneteenth, don’t think for a moment that wasn’t intentional, yet another replacement of a traditional American observance with a politicized one.
Government buildings normally open on Sunday, such as many libraries, are observing both the official date and the Monday holiday.
They couldn’t actually cancel Father’s Day with the other “day”, so they overrode it.
I could argue with parts of this essay, but only in the classic sense where an argument is not necessarily a fight. There are some very good assertions here that could use a thorough airing and discussion.
Fatherhood

As LBJ is reliably reported to have said in the company of several US Senators on the eve of signing the disastrous “Great Society” / “War on Poverty” legislation for which he used the legacy of the martyred JFK to get passed:
”I’ll have them n _ _ _ers voting democrat for the next 200 years”
. . . and here we are, the poverty rate didn’t change (and is probably even worse lately), crime is rampant, the nuclear family is getting to be a thing of the past, fatherlessness is off the charts and Washington is working it’s ass off figuring out ways to get more people dependent on the tax dollars of a dwindling population of producers.
?w=600&h=631
No question about it. the poison pills were planted in the 60s.
That’s a good way of putting it, that the seeds were planted. My personal POV is that people put too much weight on those programs when talking about what happened to black families, but that does not mean they weren’t a major factor and the catalyst.
And my personal POV, is there is too much focus on these negative effects on BLACK families.
POOR were effected by these policies, regardless of race. WHITE, Hispanic etc. mothers were told their Welfare, Food stamps, housing assistance would be “cut off” if they had an “able bodied” worker (man) in the house, who was unemployed.
Further, the system gave poor women an INCENTIVE to divorce, as they could dump their husband, go on ‘public assistance’ and ‘improve their standard of living’.
Teenage girls, at the age when many fight constantly with their mothers (especially in a home where there is no father to be a ‘buffer’ knew they could get pregnant, have the baby, and then qualify for ‘public assistance’ and move out of Moms house, and if they had a SECOND (out of wedlock baby) upgrade to a two bedroom apartment.
Yes, this disproportionately effected blacks, but the same consequences affected ALL the poor.
LBJ’s quote does demonstrate that those that crafted and enacted these policies, knew damn good and well what the results would be; these were NOT “Unintended consequences”.
In older days a young mother and wife who didn’t have access to welfare and food stamps would be a fix if she was married to a total loser. I am sure many honorable hard working women were at least able to have a life for themselves and their children thanks to welfare.
The door swings both ways.
A white person or family getting welfare is not going to happen in most Democrat cities.
I grew up on welfare , I am white , my father was a drunk. Wound up in foster homes for a stretch .
Just wanted to put out there that welfare is no way to live. Lack of food and money was a constant.
Hence, I’ve never collected a dime from the government for even a layoff .
Spot on Dutch. We see it all around us. Dependency is a trained behavior. It does not know race.
Tough call as to which of the three…Wilson, LBJ, or Biden is the most racist.
MLK Jr, a pro redistribution communist with an R after his name for cover and a a gift for oratory, after being recruited and trained by the CPUSA, met with LBJ in the Oval office to push this horror of the Great Society and the War on Poverty to the tune of $22 trillion to date.
But the damage done to our once great nation is immeasurable.
MLK Jr, the beloved icon and revered civil rights leader, is directly responsible for the destruction of the black family and the inner city hellholes.
When will the Lies stop?
Flova how about some citations. Just looking for any sources to support your theory of this meeting
Given what we now know about the FBI, and given that the current nutjobs on “the left” are distancing themselves from MLK just as hard as they can,…I am sceptical of all of the negative stories about MLK, both the “Communist ties” and the “Womanising”; as it sounds an awful lot like “Trump is an agent of Putin” and “Stormy Daniels”.
He WAS a Republican, and the head exploding that invariably occurs when you point that out to a millenial, may well be why the current crop of leftists are trying to memory hole him.
At the end of the Civil war, the Dems faced destruction.
Giving Blacks the right to vote, meant if Blacks were actually ABLE to vote (and would overwhelmingly vote for “the Party of Lincoln”, Republicans would be a permanent majority party, both in the South, and in large Northern cities where they had large black enclaves.
Hence voter suppression and Planned Parenthood.
Every black household back then had a picture of Lincoln, and every black child was taught WHY.
Anyway, I take negative stories of MLK with a healthy helping of salt, is all I am saying,…
His communist ties and womanizing were talked about in the 80s and probably before as my parents knew about these things. He’s not someone the right should cite as some example.
A whopping big THANK YOU!!!
His “Great Society” program was the product of Stuart Chase, the same Stalin praising communist who produced the “New Deal”
What do they call ,Father’s day ,in the hood?
SUNDAY.🙃
Why one day? Needs to be changed to Junemonth to replace the obnoxious in-your-face vile “pride month.” Personally, I ignore juneteenth.
Maybe just make every day “I hate America and American Culture and History” day. The first Monday of every month could be the official observance of that day.
We could fly rainbow flags with Barack Obama’s hideous visage in the middle.
Many normal people find rainbow flags offensive so they should be removed wherever the abnormal people plant them.
Here, red-pilled Russell Brand discusses the CDC recommending 5-11 year old getting the booster shots for Covid. He covers a great article by Dr. Markary written in Newsweek and destroying any form of objectivity by the panels who make these decisions.
But I would be remiss if I didn’t post even more alarming information from GatoMalo (on substack where he went after being booted off of Twitter) where diminished sperm counts are tracked in an Israeli study post covid jab. Yes, those crazy conspiracy theories REALLY do seem to have a basis in reality. As he points out, the medical article purports that the sperm counts rebounded after 150 days, but the data in the actual study demonstrates the opposite. Very, very, scary stuff guys. We already know the havoc it played on women’s periods, now it’s also evident with the men.

” Keep humanity under 500 million , in perpetual balance with nature ” – Georgia Guidestones first of 10 evil commandments
Maybe that’s not a bad idea? There are other ways to go about reaching that number other than killing folks. I’d favor settling folks in Low Earth orbit, the Moon and Mars but that would require planning and investment. Of course the Ukraine, alone, just grabbed a couple of years worth of investment and at the end of this Covid Crap, we’ve probably spent a couple of decades worth of investment in our collective future.
I’m glad European leaders of the 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th and 18 Centuries had more faith in the future or all the Native American casinos would be empty.
I much prefer to think like a winner rather than fight over scraps like losers.
Sperm counts have been dropping for decades. 60 year old men have higher sperm counts than 30 year old men. How does that happen? Poisoned food? Childhood vaccines?
Yes, that has been tracked. I actually think it could be linked to plastics to some degree (there are multiple variables)- one study followed an East Asian country where the men wore cheap plastic flip-flops- the plastic went through their feet and lowered their sperm counts drastically.
But this study is specifically about sperm samples directly before the jab and then afterwards. So if they started with a lower count, this only more drastically diminished it further.
I was just reading someone’s tweet about obesity, talking about factors like diet, etc., and saying there had to be something else, that people aren’t talking about, and it had to have happen in the fifties.
A thing or three that come to mind- plastics, automobiles, and automation. There is a lot of circumstantial evidence that plastics do affect us.
I read a book about the infertility industry, and learned that in Russia, one of the things they do to treat infertility is to get all plastics out of a woman’s environment.
Who knows if that actually helps, or even how you do that, but the Russian methods have a higher success rate than the American ones.
soy
I’ve wondered what is causing that but haven’t found a clear answer. Younger men now have the testosterone levels of 80-year-old men in prior generations, and the medical community’s response has been to lower the numbers on the scale such that abnormally low testosterone levels are considered “normal,” and also make it so the scale doesn’t differentiate by age so 20 year olds are compared to 80 year olds. The establishment is strongly in favor of lowered testosterone levels in men. Several middle aged women have commented to me that younger men now act more like women than men. One of the suspects is phthalates, which are in plastics and became ubiquitous in the late 1960s or so.
Bobby Jr. talks a lot about these environmental factors. I used to think he was off the wall with a lot of it. I still do, but after seeing his uphill fight relating to vaccines, and how he was smeared and reviled as an “anti-vaxxer”, I am taking a closer look at some of his other causes.
I’ll take Folk Music for $400.
My candidate for a product likely to lower sperm count, from personal experience, is a flame retardant in which the foam rubber of the car seat of my 1977 Pontiac had been soaked. We had an unplanned pregnancy in 1971, at age 22. No sperm count taken, but virility otherwise established.
Due to intervening military service and graduate school, we didn’t try again until 1977, and great frustration resulted. Low sperm count proven by repeated tests. Eventual success in about 1979 ended with a miscarriage.
We moved and got rid of that car in 1981, and we’re blessed with a beautiful second child in 1984. Both have given us beautiful and healthy grandchildren.
There was something about the smell of the car, especially where the seat surface had cracked, that had always bothered me, and I blamed it as the likely source.
Subsequent research has shown that flame retardants are associated with reduced sperm counts. E.g., https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20194068/
On current reflection, it may be worth noting that use of such flame retardants, I believe, had been made mandatory by our federal government, with expressed good intentions of reducing burn injuries. No doubt such mandate had been lobbied for by the makers of the flame retardant.
SOY!
Agree, soy is a huge factor and in everything. Try finding things without soy.
Even liquid hand soaps, etc are questionable. Castille soap is best.
Another is the tap water.
(Alex Jones has been talking about this for years…gay frogs, etc…..of course he’s just a conspiracy theorist 😉 ).
Estrogen in the water supply, and soy which mimics estrogen in the body?
May account for trans and gay seeming increases, as well?
One of the distinguishing charachteristics of ancient Rome, was how they used aqueducts to bring water into the city, and piping to bring running water to each home. (the infamous Roman baths, for example).
After such a system was in place, they became aware that their use of LEAD, was a bad idea, and was harming the citisenry.
The buerocracy ‘had a plan’, with a timetable, to gradually, one neighborhood at a time, replace the lead pipes,…
We KNOW the levels of estrogen in our water supplies has increased dramatically.
We KNOW why; the widespread use of birth control pills.
And yet we are worse than the Romans, cause at least they recognised the problem, and had a plan.
Instead, any make who “transitions” will recieve (and therefore excrete) MUCH higher levels of estrogens.
“Lead, we need MORE lead in our water supply!”
talk about fiddling while Rome burns, we are passing out matches!
No matter what they do or don’t do, small children do not need these injections. You don’t give children injections they don’t need.

Harris’ family history of slave ownership is well known, but the Bidens and Robinettes have a history, too.
https://www.glennbeck.com/research/exclusive-proof-that-joe-bidens-family-owned-slaves
To be fair, if Joe’s family hadn’t owned slaves they would have all died out, because they are all mentally unfit to fend for themselves.
It might explain Hunter’s taste for Brown Sugar (See laptop photo from Washington area hotel 2018 of black call girl photographed from behind). I wonder how the BLM, feminist movement would react if that photo was more publicized.
If Hunter was cheating on someone it might be a bad thing. Having sex for money is repugnant but interracial sex between 2 consenting adults is a big snoozefest.
In woke circles the notion of a White man having (consensual or not) intercourse with a POC woman is inherently Patriarchal, racist, and an imposition of the Colonial master onto the body of the Colonial ‘Other.’
Yep. This has been taught since the mid-90s in grad school.
So ABC is in on the 2022 election rigging! Who knew?
Minority Report 2.0. Our own alert on election rigging before it happens. Unbelievable!
Praying Job 5:12 over the demonic election-stealing cabal:
New International Version
He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.
does this preclude US from having to do anything to thwart their plans?
Psalm 109 on them and on all censors to freedom of expression.
Nice one! I stand on that scripture too, that Word of God… praising Him.
I sometimes take look at The Message (MSG) translation which is a paraphrase.
Job 5:12-15
12) He aborts the schemes of conniving crooks, so that none of their plots come to term.
13) He catches the know-it-alls in their conspiracies – all that intricate intrigue swept out with the trash!
14) Suddenly they’re disoriented, plunged into darkness; they can’t see to put one foot in front of the other.
15) But the downtrodden are saved by God, saved from the murderous plots, saved from the iron fist
What the heck was that about? ABC has some explainin’ to do.
Just a fwiw—————
ABC is not the source they got it from the AP as is so often the case with all media outlets.
I would not put it past the elitists being stupid enough to try that; however, I think if there are even two brain cells to rub together amongst them they will instead rely on the other wing of the Uniparty bird to cool off the masses after the Democrat wing has set the people ablaze with righteous fury. They’ll allow the Republicans to become the majority and even allow a few mostly ineffectual reforms so as to suck the wind from the sails of the revolt against them. Nothing will actually be rolled back, and in 2024 they think they can keep President Trump off the ticket so a Haley or Pompano will be at the head of the Republican ticket so as to offload all the blame onto Biden and then have the GOPE say “well, we tried, but the damage Biden did is too extensive… we need to Reset into a new digital currency that will not allow abuses like this to happen again.”
Personally, I’m hoping they’re stupid enough to try stealing this election even more blatantly… once elections are proved useless then patriots will have clear justification to do as must be done and the tyrants all swing from lampposts because we outnumber the people who want this technocratic nightmare future by at least 100, if not a hundred thousand, to 1.
Their only way to win is a fraudulent election as it was in 2020. Why would they not do what works again?
Especially since there have been very few consequences and relatively few modifications in laws to prevent it in the future.
In 4th grade, I got “sucker punched” on the playground, and “got my *ss kicked”.
I 5th grade, I ‘saw it coming’, ducked and counterpunched, and prevailed.
Point being, some things, like the “sucker punch” or the Trojan horse, only work ONCE.
Despite PDJT’s constant warnings, we were sucker punched, in 2020.
For many, it was denial, that river in egypt. We just didn’t want to accept that our election system had been corrupted.
They WILL try it again, and yes their main thrust, as has long been the case, will combine BALLOT fraud with the OTHER form of election manipulation, by trying to block MAGA candidates, so the choice voters are left with is no choice.
Lets see what happens,…personally I believe we have passed a ‘tipping point’ (some time ago).
THEY are forced to take actions, like sacrificing credibility and exposing the true nature of the Uniparty, for short term gain, but as a result are losing a war of attrition.
The MAGA movement was larger in 2020, than it was in 2016, and it is larger now than it was in 2020.
And, now that they are hitting Americans hard in their wallets, checkbooks and stomachs, even the sleepiest of Sheeple are waking up, and red pilling.
And red-pilling is a PROCESS. Once you accept that THEY are lieing to you about THIS, and then accept they are lieing to you about THIS, you start to question EVERYTHING they have told you.
And, once you see the strings,…
I have always been one to see it as Trumps three-phase plan of; hearing, seeing and feeling. We are now in the “feeling” stage.
Indeed. What’s to stop them?
.
What if the election riggers do rig the election, and that rigging is done on behalf of the GOP — meaning a Republican majority is initially ‘voted in’ — but then the ‘cheating’ is exposed, resulting in those Republicans being ‘de-seated’ . . .?
That seems more in line with uni-party thinking than just an out and out cheat to maintain a Democrat majority . . .
@Christopher Johnson, I agree. Why would they drop their fake UNiparty construct that’s held for decades? All they have to do now is approve a “red” wave, as you say, to appease the masses.
But, as we know, it’s not a “red” wave at all, is it? It’s same=same.
The established system will never allow “us”a win to thwart their New/One World Order. USA is a speck in their rear view mirror. That was mad crystal clear with the TREASONOUS coup against President Trump, the greatest President in my lifetime.
Not one Republican CONgressman stood up for their President or their country in any way that matters. Not a one.
We’ll see what happens.
The narrative is changing. Biden is now the man of reason against the warmongers in the White House
“Biden was not happy when Blinken and Austin talked about winning in Ukraine,” one of the sources said. “He was not happy with the rhetoric.”
Getting Americans prepared for a major loss and to throw Zelensky under the bus:
But U.S. officials are growing more worried that Ukraine’s views are untenable, saying behind the scenes the Ukrainian president should shift his public position and “dial it back a little bit,” one of seven current U.S. officials, former U.S. officials and European officials told NBC.
https://thehill.com/policy/defense/3525893-biden-told-austin-blinken-to-tone-down-remarks-supporting-ukraine-report/
Zelensky is astride a dead horse. It behooves Zelensky to dismount.
Zelensky is surrounded by the Nazi Militia. If he attempts to negotiate an agreement with Russia he’ll be shocked to know that he committed suicide!
days i get down…….
Yes!! Horse lover here.
You had me at “hug” 😀
the rest is just icing
Big hug, Lolli.
🥰
On a road trip in Indiana. Passing thru Bloomington and the IU campus and getting some coffee and looking for a place to eat. This place is a freakin different planet 🙁
Post some photos
Just remember to put your phone on silent (I made that mistake once :))
Lol
Already leaving. No photos but coming out of church and then directly into a secular free thinking, rainbow, BLM environment across the board is jarring to say the least. The occasional radically thinking college kid of my day is the NORM on campus now. I knew these folks had a home in universities but I didn’t know there is no longer room for anyone else.
🙂
That’s the reason for all the censorship and FAKE NEWS propaganda. It ACCLIMATES the innocent, as well as the timid, to untenable social constructs that rip the fabric of decent American society. The fools think all this is “normal.”
SOMEBODY has to stand up and ridicule these prancing, naked Emperors!
Last sight: a greasy long haired guy with a shaggy beard and backpack and earbuds crossing the street. Looked kinda like the guy who washed his underwear in the golf ball cleaner in Happy Gilmore. I’m guessing he probably isn’t MAGA?
Man buns. Can’t stand those man buns. And knit caps. And skinny trousers with inseams down at the knee. These are the algae cake-eating greenies who prefer to live in shoeboxes.
Before that it was baseball caps worn backwards with pants on the ground, and before that it was purple/ green Mohawks and studded belts. And who can forget the pasty faced goth vampires.. My niece married one of them but it was only a phase, thank God.
I think every generation dreams up new ways to torture the ones who came before them.

and the beat goes on
The Dirty, Long-Haired, Drugged Up, Anti-War Hippies Are Winning
After getting out of the Army, before the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, I enrolled at a large state university.
Anti-war demonstrations were the big campus excitement. As time went by, they got bigger and nastier. Communist student front groups were very visible and active.
Student disturbances were driven by several factors.
Constant communist propaganda from all sides swamped young, impressionable, clueless minds that knew little beyond TV shows and popular music.
Some professors, idolized by students, were prominent disseminators of the flood of Communist propaganda.
Many male students wanted to avoid the civic duty of military service, no matter what the consequences.
Believing the USA was evil and wrong justified the thrilling adrenaline rush of demonstrations and erased the guilt of avoiding military service.
To those born after about 1970, this is ancient history, no lessons learned, buried in the past.
For those who lived through it, the hate, the violence, the constant demonstrations, the assassinations – it was vividly, vitally, crisis history in action.
I wanted to know why. Attending anti-war meetings showed me who their leaders were, how they managed students, and the impact of drugs and “free love”.
I watched students throwing rocks, bottles, and unmentionables at police. I watched them try to break police lines.
I watched as President Lyndon Johnson, with a few Secret Service guys, walked up steps between a shrieking, spitting, mob of enraged demonstrators. Yes, Presidents used to have cojones and presence.
It took years and the end of the Vietnam War for things to gradually return towards “normal”.
For awhile, I thought the leftist revolution was defeated. During the nineties, I realized I was wrong.
The brainwashing of a generation of college students with hyper-emotive propaganda was propagated to their children and grandchildren.
Their evil (as good a descriptor as any) spread throughout the kinds of jobs “humanities” majors could get. Government, education, entertainment, crazed Non-Governmental Organizations for a liberal cause.
The children and grandchildren of anti-war hippies have emerged, in force, to control our culture, and thus our society.
This time, I think they may win, unless they lose a Civil War.
That’s why I post on conservative forums. I hope the destructive liberal parasites are defeated and expunged forever from America.
That means fighting against what I’ve seen before, and am seeing again of the evil Communist propaganda imprinted on American fools for the last century.
If you think I’m wrong, riddle me this.
Why do some so-called conservatives repeat Putin’s anti-Ukraine propaganda as Putin tries to
MAKE RUSSIA GREAT AGAIN.
It seems the old poisons have spread far beyond the initial liberal infection.
Despite our hopes for Trump,
The dirty, long-haired, drugged up, anti-war hippies may finally win.
Speaking for myself, I was an anti-war person in the needless Vietnam War era with long hair, good hygiene, and not on drugs. Many of my conservative friends were also anti-war. It is the dirty pro-war people like lizard cheyney who appear to be winning BTW. Anti-war is a good thing. If you don’t believe this, sign up to go to Ukraine.
Also, don’t forget the draft lottery. Maybe you would throw a rock or two if someone told you that you had to go to vietnam and kill people while those in charge made millions of dollars and kept their hands clean. We need some of that toxic masculinity on our side today.
Thank you for demonstrating one of my points.
Good. I hope that you now realize that the “hippies” were many of the good guys protesting a war we should never, ever been involved in. Many innocent lives were lost, while the so-called elite lined their pockets with ill-gotten war $ .
And kept their sons far away from Viet Cong gunfire.
Some things never change do they, peace? I see all these Ukrainian flags and I want to barf.
GTFO. I hate Pukeraine, the grifting grounds for American Communists like the Pelosis and Bidens.
Despusing Pukeraine isn’t Communist or Pro-Russia. It’s hating corruption and rot.
And I am not an unwashed anything. Again, GTFO, corruption supporter.
Putin’s propaganda has got you good.
If corruption and rot are justification for hating a whole people, the vastly greater corruption and rot it in America means you must, to be fair, hate Americans, which I suspect is the case.
I dislike and despise people who shill for a bunch of foreigners and have fears of a Russian under every bush while America is being looted and financially destroyed ostensibly to give BILLIONS to a corrupt non-ally who pissed off its nuclear neighbor.
Zzzzelenskyy’s propaganda got you good, shill.
Wow check my post directly above. I would swear you replied to me directly.
These revolutionaries are now in power and they don’t have to be militant anymore. Their “way” is now simply the cultural policy, the modus operandi, and sphere human interaction occurs inside of.
Cultural Marxist mind controlled “Hippies”
hippies were not Marxists…so many people read the fake news back then just like today.
Re-read. I said “Cultural Marxists”
I’ll get up the thread and read your post.
It started before I was born. I just happened to experience the middle phase in a tense environment.
exactly how old are you? because if you are younger than 74 or 75 you are a propagandist for the fake media
Regardless of age, it’s deffo a propagandist and shill for Pukeraine and its sugar daddy, FJB.
It’s not America First.
It has been pointed out to you so many times it is impossible that you do not know:
-those grown up drugged up hippies are the people running the WEF and the west
-communism in Russia was over thrown in 1991 and is far weaker there than in the west
-Indeed Putin wants to make Russia great again. He would be a typical western leftist who hates their own country and people if he wasn’t
Look to your cohorts who support your Ukraine narrative. Who are they? You rightly point out it isn’t the “so called” conservatives you deplore. They are the very people who lead those drugged up hippies and finance them and with them control all the major institutions of the west.
Your entire argument is a logical self refutation.
Is Putin communist? Is he imperialistic? To me those are what determine what our position toward him should be. I’m guessing he is?
Putin is a tyrant using the authoritarian methods invented by the Tsars and perfected by the communists.
Maybe to you Putin is a Tyrant because he is not MAGA. Instead, he is MRGA. In many ways, he is like our beloved President Trump.
If I block out all my rational thought and go by MSM Putin is a tyrant if I apply critical thinking he appears to be an Iconoclast. Keep in mind he threw the Rothschilds out of Russia
So, a benevolent President For Life?
He has opponents killed and jailed, and elections as corrupt as Democrats would love for ours to be.
‘Are we a joke to you?’ ask the J6 political prisoners. Grow up, Oldrussophobe.
What do think Biden and Garland are doing to political opponents?
Soros is not allowed to step one foot in Russia. Says a lot in Russia’s favor.
So, how does Making Russia Great Again happen without Making America Even Worse?
Yeah … it’s impossible for one nation to achieve greatness without stepping on another great nation. You’d be right, except you’re wrong and Our Lion of America, President Trump, proved it.
Russia has the GDP of Spain and it’s army is 1/10th the size of NATO. Why are you so concerned about a country that is no threat to the United States and half way around the world?
I see Putin a Nationalist just as is Trump. Putin is all about MRGA. What is
Zelensky and Biden? They certainly are not MUGA or MAGA.
The Communist Party lost power. The CP members, particularly spy agency types, grabbed the valuable bits to become oligarchs, and the control of government.
Communism is Dead!
Long Live The Communists!
And, they still want To Make Russia Great Again. Their methods were perfected by Tsarists and communists.
The point is that their subversive propaganda has poisoned liberals first, and now, demonstrated in CTH posts, conservatives.
Neo-isolationism in a national enemy is a great aid in
MAKING RUSSIA GREAT AGAIN.
The crooks who stole our national government don’t give a s*** about Ukraine or Russia rebuilding their empire.
They are panicked about the November elections ripping power away from them.
Their Afghanistan bug-out hurt them badly. They fear a Ukrainian collapse will hurt them even worse.
So, Democrats support Ukraine because they fear the backlash of not supporting them.
Just because Democrats do something DOES NOT automatically make the opposite position pragmatically or morally the right choice.
Democrats will abandon Ukraine the second after the last polling station closes in November.
Conservatives, ie. real conservatives (not long-haired hippie wannabes), know Russia regaining control over former communist puppet states is a disaster for the USA.
Supporting Ukraine is the correct foreign policy, and also morally right.
So there is no decades long leftist corruption of Ukraine?
There was never a color revolution?
Those 46 bio labs in Ukraine funded by the US don’t exist?
Ukraine was not materially involved in the leftist coup against Trump?
You make statements that are categorically, visibly false.
You invent rationales to replace them from whole cloth.
Your hippy is a boogeyman. They went away in the 70’s as they grew up and took over every institution in the west and then every government in the west. Deep State IS your long haired hippy and their grown up children.
RINOs support Ukraine. McConnell/McCarthy support Ukraine. Lindsey Graham is the poster boy of the “conservative” supporter of Ukraine.
Your “conservatives” are doing exactly what you want. The RNC is full of “conservatives” who think like you. Everyone here who disagrees with you has no political representation in America. Is that not enough for you?
It is often said that the assassination of Lincoln was one of the worse things that could have happened to the South.
In a similar vein, Bush taking over from Reagan was one of the worst things that could have happened to Russia. The Bush people were hardcore cold war realists who dismissed Reagan and his people as mush for brains. These old realists turned the collapse of the Soviet Union into a cold war against Russia. They didn’t want good to happen for the Soviet peoples, they wanted to crush them. Must have felt cheated of their victory over communism.
Bush, Cheney, and Wolfowitz set the course our foreign policy has followed since, leading to this nightmare. That course was pursued by Clinton and Albright, Bush, Powell and Rice, Obama, Clinton and Kerry, and we see Biden trying to rush its completion. Trump never cleaned it up, and it bit his ass, with impeachment and all.
Rather than helping the Russian people, we made sure that they needed a strongman to protect themselves from us. And he protected them from the worst corruption that we had helped unleash upon them. Don’t get me wrong, communism is always corrupt. But instead of helping build mechanisms of law and order to protect the people, we selected for the corrupt who were willing to pay us to look the other way.
That is true for all former soviet peoples. Putin, like a corrupt Godfather brought the Russian crooks to heel. They serve him and his Russia or else. Ukraine stayed under our corrupt yoke. And every time Ukraine tried to leave, we created a coup to bring it to heel.
This war in Ukraine started in 2014 as a response to our coup putting corrupt Neo-Nazis in power. Russia took Crimea. Ukraine responded by persecuting Russian speaking Ukrainians. And that started a rebellion which has support from Russia. The killing of Ukrainians has been a pet Ukrainian NAZI project going on for eight years. Now, after we triggered him by crossing his red line, Putin has brought the Russian army to this war.
All the things you mention are part of our evil use of Ukraine for corruption and for power over Russia. We truly are no better, maybe worse than evil Putin. But our oldrealist, refuses to see that. He is on a crusade against Putin. A very morally evil crusade. But one he thinks is just and right.
He can’t see the errors in his logic. Nor does he realize how he twists himself into pretzels to argue what he thinks right. And he must propagandize in his cause. Like Biden, and Obama’s lackeys surrounding Biden, we must fight Russia to the last Ukrainian. We must kill as many Russians as possible. All so we can oust Putin.
That is morally wrong. Utterly evil. But eyes are shut. And ears are closed when these evils are brought up. As long as Putin exists, it can all be dismissed as Putin’s propaganda.
And this evil is also directed at the American people by Biden and Co. Transforming us into poverty. Never forget, energy poverty is standard of living poverty.
We have no business wasting American tax dollars in a fight between two corrupt peoples. And Heaven forbid that we shed any blood over it.
We have strong interests in encouraging peace. But because we are led by Cold War Idiot policies and a venal corrupt leadership, we are stoking the flames of war.
I really wish oldrealist could realize that both sides in this fight are evil. It was not that many years ago where I was just as blinded by the righteousness of that cause too. But it took years of clearing and fertilizing the ground before I could.
How dare you accuse me of aligning with neo-cons and RINOs.
You’ve seen enough of my posts to know that’s utter BS.
How dare YOU accuse many posters here of being dirty hippies…utter BS
You’d argue with a clock or a ham sandwich and lose every time. I go on motorcycle and auto repair forums and occasionally someone like you shows up. You don’t want to fix your car you just want to argue that it can’t be done.
You align yourself with Zelenskyy and the left who are also aligned with RINOs and you can’t make the connection of why people put you in the neocon-RINO camp???
Your statements are vast generalizations. You must watch too much tv.
Sorry Sir I respectfully disagree, I was very much against the Vietnam war, I enlisted but they evacuated b/4 I got sent. I was against the Falklands gulf war and all the other warring events. I am a patriot who loves his country and understands that we have been betrayed be the elites running the show. I think they are lots more of us dirty old hippies that deeply care about the country but realize that tptb have played us for their greed.
My impression of hippies is fixed by what I saw for years on campus.
They are the enemy.
60 years ago, and your thinking hasn’t evolved? That’s…remarkable.
I was a hippie…sorry you see me as your enemy. I see you as a rigid old person whose thoughts are frozen in 1965. I have family whose beliefs are the same as they were when they were 18. And they vote…scary.
oops…sorry Mims…was replying to Old realist…
And I understood you, thx LF!
People who can’t figure out the values that count for them personally, for society, and for humanity are untrustworthy.
No where in any of these comments is there any indication of people who haven’t figured out their values.
Wow, thx, I was a hippie wannabe, a little too young at the time. Very much a social liberal at a tender young age 😊
When you get it right, you get it right.
Especially when most of what you see politically confirms it.
Or, do you prefer variable values that flip flop with what’s fashionable at the moment?
I simply matured, and so did my thinking. I’ve never been so rigid in thought that I wouldn’t explore. And I’ve never been so convinced of my own inability to err.
My friends and I (all Trump supporters) were labeled hippies and we are definitely not the enemy. Today’s BLM and ANTIFA would be the enemy of yesterday’s hippies. I know – i was there.
You describe the current incarnation of hippies.
Wow. Telling someone else who they’re talking about? I think peace would know if he or she meant the hippies of the past or the ones of today.
Today’s patriots (the ones locked up by the enemy) would also have been against the Vietnam war.
As a VN Vet, I marched against the war. To my thinking, the U.S. was fighting to lose and we did, according to Congress. I was a lonely voice back then.
Same here! I volunteered for the draft in October of ’71 and never left the States. Whew!
I was one of those dirty hippies too…I don’t remember being a Maxist..because we were not Marxist. There were commie infiltrators, many were the children of old Marxists….but the normal working class Hippie was all peace and love and btw that is the group of people who were drafted to go to Vietnam and slaughtered over there while being vilified by people like you who have no clue…my generation was the cannon fodder for the elite and if we are anti war we have a reason. I don’t think you have a clue about what you are talking about…are you a commie infiltrator to this site?
Nowhere did I “vilify” Vietnam veterans. They did their civic duty, unlike the campus anti-war protestors.
Putting a gun in the hands of a teenager and forcing him to go to the jungles of vietnam and kill people is NOT a civic duty. If you were unfortunate enough to have been born on Sept. 14 between the years 1944-1950 , you were the first in line to go. I repeat, as many now know, we should never, ever been involved in Vietnam or, for that matter, Iraq and Ukraine to name a few others. The hippies were comprised of mostly good loving people .
You don’t get it; the brothers in Vietnam were in fact in reality the brothers of the anti-war protestors. The protestors were trying to save the lives of their literal brothers.
What did you do to fulfill civic duty?
All through your long, but enjoyable post I kept thinking, “When do we get to “Putin Man Bad”?
There we go! You were “this close”!
Funny … when I think of “dirty, long-haired, drugged up, anti-war hippies” I just can’t associate them with anything to do with Vladimir Putin.
Maybe Putin isn’t spouting anti-Ukraine propaganda after all? Maybe … it’s the truth?

A very reasoned, intelligent cogent statement. It is nothing like the spin BS nonsense and Orwellian over-dramatization coming out of US politicians.
Russian is a 1000 year old much more homegeneous culture that will continue to survive while the US is some kind of City of London – Bushite – CIA – Banking Cabal – amalgamation of people who are from somewhere else.
It’s possible the US may survive based on the Declaration and Constitution ideals, but I wouldn’t bet against the unified Russia beating the divided US.
Preaching to the choir again .
Talk is cheap.
What I’m waiting for is the uprising, we need a minimum of 150 million.
Right now Americans are still way to full and comfortable.
Not sure about that I’m seeing Liberals that are getting quite riled up
Some craziness & inflation, maybe. But do believe that Biden Globalist have pushed it too far.
The biggest hindrance when Liberals (and Conservatives) get all “riled up,” is that they usually misdirect all that angst. The ENEmedia often leads them into dark alleys to duke it out, and nothing ever *changes.*
My favorite example is when everybody agrees to “never forget” an incident like the Holocaust or 9/11, when they still have no clue what happened in the first place! How do we “remember” something we never learned? How do we correct our mistakes if we are not aware of what those mistakes are?
It would be nice if the campus marches started up again. “Hell no we won’t go” could be replaced with “Throw biden out” or something catchier to get the message across that the illegal installation of a president is unacceptable. Unfortunately, it seems like today’s college campus’s are filled with weak-minded people looking for safe spaces and flying rainbow flags.
They are all glued to social media, that’s why. Entranced. Hypnotized my Tik Tok.
We were no better, glued to the TV and Hollyweird. But hindsight is 20/20.
Democrat Hatchet Man Norm Eisen’s Fingerprints Are All Over a Dark New Element of the Jan 6 Witch Hunt
all of the efforts to undermine Trump have not been good faith responses to his behavior, but a pre-ordained attack strategy
A quick glance at Norm Eisen’s Twitter account confirms his passion for criminally prosecuting Trump and for using the January 6 Committee as a vehicle to build a “case” to hand over to an eager Merrick Garland
https://www.revolver.news/2022/06/norm-eisen-january-6-committee-benny-thompson-dark-conspiracy-against-president-trump/
… which is a maneuver called a “bill or writ of attainder,” where a legislature or a monarch declares a person to be guilty and metes out punishment therefor. In the old days, so-called “corruption of blood” deprived the accused of his property and his heirs of their inheritance.
This is expressly prohibited by Article 1, Section 9 … but, you know, “because of the emergency,” it may be necessary to “set aside” the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
The goal is to arrest Donald Trump and his family without any judicial process. He will then be “disappeared,” like every victim of a coup d’etat, and never seen alive again.
Anyone who protests will be placed in the Jan 6th Gulag and other prisons specifically built for the purpose throughout the country, where they will be held indefinitely without trial, having also been seized on attainder. Any rebellion will be ruthlessly put down, and the November election will be “suspended, due to the emergency.”
It’s simply Josef Stalin, Pol Pot, or any other despot who ever existed … “the new ‘American Style.’” You will soon get used to it. You will live in fear of a Government which can – and will – do anything to you. Soon you will forget what it meant to be free, knowing that any loose talk of “freedom” could spell disaster if your neighbors overhear you and then turn you in for a big cash reward.
Certain people might dream of arresting President Trump but they will never dare place so much as a hand on him because even in their fevered insanity they must know that if they dared to try it there would be a mass uprising the likes of which have rarely been witnessed in this country. Patriots need to continue praying for the physical protection of President Trump and his family and pray that the wicked schemes of the Jan. 6 committee will be utterly put to shame.
I don’t think Americans are beaten down just yet. Hundreds of millions of extremely “annoyed” patriots, now being joined by disillusioned democrats, ain’t throwing in the towel.
I wouldn’t want to see us all get madder..
Globalists running the New/ One World Order from afar, don’t really give a fig what happens to their ‘minions’ on American soil, so you may be correct that those minions will foolishly continue to push the envelope.
I’m just saying they will all be in for a very rude awakening if they do.
And of course it’s DC, District of Corruption, so it’s really not hard at all.
Florida has a huge cattle ranch industry which raises 900,000 head of beef cattle a year and the 13th largest in the United States. It gets pretty hot in Central Florida too!
https://www.floridabeef.org/raising-beef/cattle-in-florida
How about the delta T and time?
How about a large change in temperature, in a short period of time?
( i.e. one direction ( sharply higher), or the other ( sharply lower ) can be tough to acclimate.
Whether it be bird, fish, animal, human, plant etc)
Imho
I think temps were low to mid 100’s when the cattle died. Fla might hit high 90s. There’s more water too.
Central Florida can easily do 100° and it doesn’t cool down at night.
In Arizona, we see triple digits through almost all of the summer, and the cattle don’t just drop dead unless they are not given water. Something else killed the cattle in Kansas, but unless someone pays for autopsies, we’ll never know what did it.
Here in Florida’s Big Bend we’ve already hit triple digits and will again this week. Wednesday and Thursday will see ambient Temps reaching 104 and 106 with heat indeces reaching 119. Local cattle can be found lounging in their ponds or under grandfather oaks, but very much alive.
Same with NE Oregon & SE Washington–in the triple digits 10, 20, 30 and sometimes more days in a row.
The cattle deaths do NOT make any sense.
Pray they are doing a very intense autopsy!!
Same in Texas and Oklahoma…
Yes, but Florida doesn’t get frigid during the winter. Feedlot cattle are shipped in from all directions and distances and by this time of year may not have shed their winter coats. Digesting the rich feedlot diet generates more body heat (have you ever started sweating after a large, heavy meal?). The cattle in the feedlot disaster couldn’t shed body heat fast enough under this late spring weather scenario. Equal heat conditions in, say, late July might not give the same result.
And the global warming myth has noting to do with anything. The climate is actually cooling and vastly more cold records are being set than for heat. They simply are not as widely reported because they don’t fit the narrative. There are 68 widely used climate models, and 67 of them predict warming far in excess of actual measurement data. The climate alarmists conveniently forget to mention that, too. The cyclical climate changes are due to the activity of the sun, not atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.
Ok so when was the last time you heard about this happening,? Cuz it’s pretty much the same process every year.
Next thing to make cool mental illness, notice the incorporation of many rainbows, of course none God’s.

Wonder if this applies to donated organs as well…
Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2008 for being elected president of the US. He protected the world from US agression.
Liz Cheney is a shoo in for the Nobel Peace Prize if she can win the GOP presidential primary in 2024. She will protect the world from conservatives.
No chance of that happening unless they cheat again.

I was not here to watch the so called dirty hippies on campus…..I was too busy trying to stay alive and keep my buddies alive….
war has a different look to those of us that had our boots on the ground..we are not so ready to be in another for the corrupt.
God bless you.
All the so-called dirty hippies on campus were actually, for the most part, true American patriots.
“True American Patriots” depends on your view point.
The ones I talked with on campus we’re mostly righteous jerks disguised as noble peaceniks, or scared of getting drafted.
So what were you doing on campus? while we were marching and protesting the war, you may have been hiding in your safe space.
“Marching and protesting . . . ” Yeah, tough duty, Sir!
I was one of those dirty hippies. Hippies are against war. So are former hippies…what are you talking about?
little…
I talking about people like oldrealist that are putting down folks that are against war for and by the corrupt..
I was not here to watch hippies on campus I was fighting a war in Nam……and I know how insane war is…..I was not a fortunate one as the CCR song says…….
so he and I see things from a different point of view……….hippie is just another freaking label…
that is what I am taking about…….
ps…I Was dirty too,,but for another reason
And then when you are returning to the ‘world’ the military says to not wear your uniform because the hippies will spit on you. The same hippies that look like football players pan handling for money.
Steve,,
I do know some fellow vets that where spit on and worse….and treated very badly by many kinds of people….
but not all…….some folk those that knew of war and had family hurt or killed ..were very kind and understanding…
Hating war might be defensible.
Hating soldiers who performed their civic duty reveals the sham of the political agenda underneath.
Communist subversion wanted to shred and divide us. Espoused values were simply propaganda tools.
Thank you all who commented. This happened to me in January 1970, so it is not an emotional thing with me.
I hope against hope that the human species will survive its adolescence and become a mature species. I believe God gave us intelligence in order
for the human species to become enlightened and not use its intelligence to subjugate other species or segments of humanity.
What I saw on campus was real. What I heard them say in meetings was real, and politically cynical in the extreme.
I’ve glossed over the very much nastier bits, especially the vicious anger and hatred many anti-war, peace loving hippies could display.
College freedom from parents, drugs, “free love”, and thrilling adrenaline rages attacking police are not anything good for our nation.
There’s a reason some call them the first wasted generation.
You can’t take what you saw and heard and generalize it to the population. I saw the exact opposite of what you describe.

lolli……thanks you got it
I respect your honesty, a virtue in too short supply.
Some wars need to be fought, hence the creation of the USA. Other wars should not be fought, but sometimes are WWI and Vietnam.
To say all wars are good or all wars are bad is simply being too simplistic.

Ford Recalls Millions of Vehicles that Might Roll When Parked
15 Jun 2022
https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2022/06/15/ford-recalls-millions-vehicles-might-roll-parked/
The Ford Motor Co. is recalling over 2.9 million vehicles in the United States that could roll when parked. This is the third recall campaign Ford has issued this week, and the company by far leads all other auto manufacturers in recalls across the country this year.
The vehicles include “certain 2013-2019 Escape, 2013-2018 C-Max, 2013-2016 Fusion, 2013-2021 Transit Connect, and 2015-2018 Edge vehicles,” according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) letter sent to Ford confirming their intention to recall.
The vehicles listed above may roll away when parked because a “bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission may degrade or detach,” the letter states. “A damaged or missing bushing may prevent the vehicle from shifting into the intended gear, and cause the vehicle to move in an unexpected direction” while parked.
The exact same thing happened with Ford vehicles in the late 1960s-mid 1970s.
Get out and slam the driver’s door closed, and they would jump into reverse. The worst ones were equipped with automatic parking brake releases. The running vehicle would jump into reverse, and the parking brake would release, with no one at the wheel.
Many young children were killed when the cars would back over them.
Wonder when we’ll see Fords exploding again when rear-ended, just like Pintos used to do?
Recalling vehicles is on the Presidential thread? Admins?
Labels……mercy how folks love to use em..
When I came back from Nam I was called a baby killer…..so many in this nation treated us like shit…
when I spoke out against the war in Iraq ,,,I was then called a traitor…..
labels are easy to use ….real easy when one does not take the time to find what is really in another heart and the reasons it it there.
to try to solve ones problems with another people by killing them..is pure insanity……
you will always find those that are for war are never willing to go them self…but very willing to have you are your children go .
be verycareful when someone has out the old label maker.
Gave an up vote, with an aside.
In an online forum like this, ideas, info and disinformation zip by voluminously and quickly.
No way our brains can perform broad analysis with good context on all of it, or even a little bit of it.
Labels, flaws and all, are like brief sign posts indicating a direction. They can help as much as they can confuse.
Remember, all communication is propaganda with a purpose, be it ever so tiny, or of vast scope.
Define ‘disinformation’, Scary Poppins.
Agreed, and so true brother.
Worst part the people applying the labels are on the periphery generally.
Few have first hand experience or knowledge.
Me too! I dealt with it by acting like a duck and just letting things roll off my back. That worked and kept me from getting arrested for breaking someone’s jaw. Had I been a SEAL with their never expired get-out-of-jail-free cards for bar fights, I might have done things differently, but I wasn’t a SEAL and didn’t have one of those get-out-of-jail-free cards, so I became like a duck instead.

Hope you’ll indulge me this phenomenal story… so I am heading up a lonely mountain road, just me and the dawg, gonna hike in God’s glorious magnificence. Turn into a pullout, about to let my psycho dawg out and noticed a car driving on not one but TWO rims. Two flat tires. I point my thumb to the pullout and he pulls over.
In the backseat are 4 young chillin, two youngest are crying. They were hungry, nothing to eat since the night before. I tell dad I’ll run him down the mountain to a tow company.
While mom and the kids are waiting in his car, we head down the mountain. He’s got no money. Didn’t need to ask, clear enough. I only had my ID and $25. No CC or bank card.
Bottom of mountain and I swing by the McDonalds, small town so it’s that or gas station grub. While dad is on the phone hoping to find help, I explain to the manager I need to feed 6 hungry people on my paltry $25.
He asks why. Immediately he makes an announcement to the staff, they kick in $30. So now it’s a feast.
Dad had connected with a cousin, they hadn’t spoken in 10 years, cousin immediately contacts gas station and tow company, pays for the whole enchilada.
We return with a feast and promise of a tow truck. Poor mom is trying to assuage the kids with sunflower seeds and water… she sees us and her brave visage melts into tears of gratitude.
So I grab Lucky the dawg, point them to a public campground, nearly deserted, through the woods on a beautiful alpine lake to wait for the tow and off I disappear into the wilderness.
About an hour and a half later I reappear and there is the car, with both flat tires missing.
Since it was front and back, made more sense to take the wheels off then to tow it. Put the new tires on the wheels then haul them back up the mountain and stick em on.
So anyway, I headed to the campground just to be sure all was well… low and behold, as I emerged from the forest, there was a raging fire, the kids roasting marshmallows, anticipating the s’mores!
A very nice couple, the only ones camping, had hooked the little ones up. WOW! What a difference a few hours makes. Kids were having the time of their lives.
So where’s dad? I found him a few hundred yards away. Asked him if everything was ok and if he needed anymore help.
He turns to me with tears pouring down his face and shakes his head no.
I couldn’t get out of there fast enough! Sorry, but I can’t handle emotional situations AT ALL.
I mumbled “Happy Father’s Day.” And beat feet.
🙂
May God Bless You……
Yes, blessings for you Joe. I had goosebumps after reading your story.
Don’t you think it is more about the many others that also stepped up?
I mean it’s a really small town, which is something to think about, and his family member was the real hero, idk but a really nice F’sD story for sure.
But REALLY appreciate the blessings. Thank you.
Through your reaction to what God put before you, you were blessed to be part of God’s plan for that family.
Now you bring positivity and joy to others by praising God for what He has done.
Thank you
Wow, what a story! Thanks for sharing with us and most importantly with this family.
Pretty much the best Father’s Day or any day story I’ve heard of in a long time. Thank you for this and thank G-d for you and all those who helped.
This^, this is exactly what we’re here for, to love and help one another.
So true!
The way all those beautiful people came together… I gotta say I cried my azz off writing that.
What luck I had today!
New Mexico Megadrought
Jun 19, 2022 • Three days ago the press reported that New Mexico is having an unprecedented megadrought. Today New Mexico is flooding.
When scientists, pseudo or real, are paid big bucks to skew their research findings one way or the other, many do. It’s a scam that low-information citizens indoctrinated in school rather than educated lap up like a thirsty dog. This is how we got the horrible man-made climate change that will surely kill us all in five, no ten, well, maybe 20 years.
I read on the internet about a group in the process of filing a class-action suit over the climate scam. I hope they do it and force discovery, then bankrupt all those responsible for perpetrating this stupid scam.
I thought the government was fixing this (sarc).

Texas Republicans Fight Back:
Meeting at their first in-person convention since 2018, some 5,100 Texas delegates and alternates voted on a raft of resolutions and platform changes:
They rebuked Sen. John Cornyn’s push for gun control. They deemed gender identity disorder “an extremely rare mental health condition”. They called for Texas schoolchildren “to learn about the humanity of the preborn child.” And they Declared “all businesses and jobs as essential and a fundamental right”
They also approved measures declaring that President Joe Biden “was not legitimately elected”
🚨 Texas GOP officially rejects the certified results of the 2020 Presidential election
Let’s gooooooo

The patriotic, law & order hounds are on the hunt in TEXAS …………
Can someone recommend a recently published book on the Great Reset policies of our govt written by a more scholarly author? I had a conversation with my husband this morning and he insists the Bidet officials are simply incredibly stupid and not actively trying to destroy this country. He thought I was a paranoid nut to suggest the later. So the book should go into not only the destructive policies but also the motivations behind them. He likes to read books in bed before going to sleep so perhaps I can nudge him to reconsider his paradigm with the right book since he is just laughing at his “paranoid” wife….thanks for any suggestions!
Karl Marx and others? Not scholarly, but apropo.
Too historical, Brant, want something very concurrent.
Unless he is willing to read and understand the UN’s published Agenda 203o and Klaus Schwab’s book on the Great Reset, he’ll not have the necessary framework and perspective to see how our federal/state/county/city governments dovetail into it
Gotta start simple. https://thenewamerican.com/magazine/tna3701/
Sundance’s numerous essays on the division of the world into green/wind/solar economy vs oil based economy, are probably the best available.
That New American article is outstanding! Thank you!
He prefers book reading at night but perhaps I can slip in the New American article to see if he even tries. Thanks!
Not necessarily books specifically on Great Reset policies, but encompassing them in explaining how America is being dismantled and deliberately collapsed. By former liberal feminist Naomi Wolf. Some have criticism about her but her writing is on target all day long. Why don’t you also give hubby articles from this site? Sundance is beyond on target in his analyses of Biden policies that are implementing GR. Lastly, read the online article “We’re in the last stages of a tyrannical takeover” by Naomi Wolf, at the last link below.
“Our pre-March 2020 world is gone forever. Irretrievable. For in league with mass surrender to all-powerful technology, the “restrictions” against human assembly, speech and gathering, culture and worship brough on by pandemic panic have brought new cultural norms frighteningly at odds with traditional Western notions of freedom and independent thought.
Indeed, in our fear of public ostracism and shaming and our ready abandonment of free, open, spontaneous, individualistic, egalitarian and tolerant expression, we in the West today live in a world of CCP-style regimentation and conformity. It is a world in which all human endeavor—all human joy, all human fellowship, all human advancement, all human culture, all human song, all human drama, all worship, all surprise, all flirtation, all celebration—is behind a digital pay wall. A world in which we must ask permission of technology to be human. This is a world we must challenge and change.”
“Recent history has profound lessons for us in the U.S. today about how fascist, totalitarian, and other repressive leaders seize and maintain power, especially in what were once democracies. The secret is that these leaders all tend to take very similar, parallel steps. The Founders of this nation were so deeply familiar with tyranny and the habits and practices of tyrants that they set up our checks and balances precisely out of fear of what is unfolding today.
We are seeing these same kinds of tactics now closing down freedoms in America, turning our nation into something that in the near future could be quite other than the open society in which we grew up and learned to love liberty,” states Wolf.

Thanks, Joe — I think the Bodies of Others is a good choice. He is a retired pharmacist and was licensed to vaccinate. So when Covid came around he was all gung-ho to get his jab but I had a FIT threatening divorce and held him off long enough to get him to finally question it. He still seems to think highly of the medical system and plans on getting his annual flu shot which means we have another tug-of-war coming up in the Fall. At least starting with Covid and letting Wolf develop the larger context would be helpful. He likes to feel a book in hand when reading at night so I haven’t even tried to give him Sundance articles despite being excellent.
Ordered “The Bodies of Others” and made a copy of the New American article! Thanks again, Joe and sDee!
Somehow they are ‘incompetently’ doing everything they promised they would do when they obtained power.
Read “The Great Reset” by Klaus Schwab. It’s the “Mein Kampf” of the 21st Century.

Amos Miller knew what he was doing was illegal and kept doing it anyways. He was not running a charity but a business to make money. His laughable notion that he is doing things the way they were done before government agencies were involved applies to almost all businesses. He prays with the animals before he kills them so that makes it OK? How about his draft animals? Are they telling him to join the 20th Century and use motors instead of breaking their backs or is he just hearing what he wants to hear?
I live in Amish country and there is good and bad among the Amish as well as the Englanders.
Happy father’s day to all the good father’s here !
My father was an alcoholic. He didn’t do a good job of raising me or my 3 sisters . He did better on his second family , when he quit drinking .
But he mostly ignored us .
He passed away earlier this year. There was a period of about 5 years recently where I wouldn’t talk to him . I decided to bury the hatched a few years back , glad I did .
As bad as he screwed up , I can’t say I didn’t learn from him .
I learned I didn’t wanna be like him ,in his short comings ,and his mistakes .
It has helped me become a better father just not to be like him.
That’s the lesson of my life . We all have choices , it’s on us . Choose wisely ! Learn by others mistakes if you can .
Happy Father’s Day, John, and G-d bless.
wow. Their loss.
Wonder how long it’ll be before your neighbor can report you for playing Rachmaninoff in your apt?
I have some Tchaikovsky AND Russian vodka 🤣
At 1:43 PM · Oct 4, 2018 the Women’s March twitted about their breach & take over of the Hart Building, along with their intention to take over the capitol.
As one of them says no changes taken since the breech during Kanavaugh hearings. Some were arrested but released the next day with barely a hand slap.
Yet there are dozens who have been picked up for just being in DC on Jan 6 still in solidary confinement. Still find it curious that the tweets are still up of the Womens March bragging about their numerous breeches of the capitol, along with their intent to take over the capitol and their actual take over of Hart Senate Building!
The Women’s March tweets from October 4, 2018 are still up.
Call me crazy, but this sounds a lot worse than J6.
Oh yea & for the live of me I can’t figure why they are still running loose.
Seems like some still feel it was a breech. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand was with them too.
Dang got myself in the muck bucket again–Help
Woohoo!!!
Can Joey come out to play?
