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…

As July 4 approaches, a few notes from 1776
“By June 1776, with the Revolutionary War in full swing, a growing majority of the colonists had come to favor independence from Britain.“
Ya know how those Doubting Thomases and Negative Nellies are, always coming late to the party but then claiming “founder’s rights” …… never changes.
We’re in the 3rd Act of a Greek tragedy and the world will know “who done it”.
In order to correct this we must see clearly who and what our enemy is, this is happening on a daily basis.
Keep in faith and prayer as just like in 1776 they were still at the beginning. This is going to be a long slog.
Ultra-MAGA!

Right now we need our independence from the democrats.
And republicans.
And those who control both of them.

BINGO, Amanda!
The past? Gone never to return. 15 million military age invaders will be activated by the summer ’24. The atrocities you will witness will drive people insane. Whites burned in the streets. Mass rapes. Cannibalism as a matter of course. This is your future. Unless you’ve fought in countries where these things are common every day you will be shocked to your core. The reality is coming and y’all better be ready. Oh and your shitty military which everyone honors? See above who’s side they will be on.
Laid out by Albert Pike who was a Democrat Confederate General and a top ranking member of a semi-secret society, who has a statue that is never discussed removing in Washington DC. I know of what you speak and it is playing out in real time. When the war comes it will be better for us if PDJT is our President.
This will make Bosnia/Kosovo look like a picnic party, with all due respect to our Orthodox Christian brothers and sisters and the secular Bosnian muslims who joined the Christians against the NATO/Islamic jihadists under Islamic declaration Izetbegovic. Or even the good Albanians in Kosovo who were ethnically cleansed along with the Roma, & Serbs in Kosovo.
Wonder why there arent many Cowboy and Indian movies made any longer?
“The ends justify the means”
“Politics is the art of the possible, the attainable, the art of the next best.” This is attributed to Otto von Bismark, but you can keep going back to Machiavelli, Alfred the Great, Charlemagne, Constantine, Cicero, Solomon who told us that “there’s nothing new under the sun”.
This holds true today, with a massive exception is Big Tech. This with character of the ones governing by way of fraud and you get Tyranny with petulant children who throw tantrums to get their way. They have zero compunction wielding any odious instrument they can get their hands on like a monkey slinging poo.
“Executive Order 13721, signed by President (sleazy, deviant, the destroyer, Barry & Mike) Obama on March 14, 2016. As stated in the Executive Order, the Center “shall lead the coordination, integration, and synchronization of Government-wide communications activities directed at foreign audiences abroad in order to counter the messaging and diminish the influence of international terrorist organizations,” such as (ISIS) ISIL.” Gave us; “The Global Engagement Center”
With EO-13721 and the repeal of Smith/Mundt Act, Barry weaponized information against the people, not only will there be no penalty for disinformation but encouraged to achieve their glorious Utopia aka Cuba.
The “journalism” schools happily minted armies of propagandist who question nothing but say yes master and like good little scribes who toe the line. Along with Bloody “W”’s Patriot Act, Homeland Security, FISA courts you have the perfect tools of tyranny were installed via 9-11. You just call anyone a “terrorist” and presto “anything goes.”
This must change! Like so many things foisted on us over the last 60 years they were all done to reach their goal of “their” New World Order? I know, eyes roll, but I could easily list 50 things that should be repealed to restore our Constitution, for all people of good will.
But the petulant children will scream, Racist, Sexist, homophobic, Jingoist, you name the “ism” “ist” crap…I’m a victim, victim, victim…
We’ve allowed this. When I was a kid, a petulant child was spanked and sent to their rooms, this was flipped on its head (Dr. Benjamin Spock).
Now the petulant child is made head of the house, put at the front of the line, up is down, left is right, boys are girls and girls are boys. It’s waa…-aay past time that this dumbsh_it ceases, full stop.
Ultra-MAGA! Let the paddling’s begin.
Hmmm….yes, I remember Dr. Spock….is it any coincidence….the next ‘expert’ of the day…Dr. Fauci?
It is seriously frightening the heads of households are the heirs of the spock doctrine.
Remember Dr. Spock was all part of the counter culture; “This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius…”
What ever happened to that?
In truth since the Peace & Love generation hit the scene, we’ve been in constant chaos, war, pestilence, hate, division, loathing, envy, greed, sexual deviancy, murder, privation, warped religions, drugs, confusion…and on and on…the chaos is the point. Full disclosure: I was one of these dummies Carter cured me.
“If it feels good do it”
Look at some of the Rogues Gallery of 60-70s heroes: B. Spock, Ginsberg, Chomsky, Leary, Hoffman, Alinsky, Ayers, Dohrn, and on and on… Carter pardoned many of these jerks and “voila” …they became “professors” teaching our children to be radical jerks and grow up to hate. Loathe and destroy the very thing that allows them to be worthless jerks, the USA and its Constitution and Bill of Rights.
MAGA and the earlier Tea Party, even President Reagan, Ross Perot is the antithesis of all of the above, as it represents God and true love.
This is why the demonic uniparty attacks breathlessly, viciously and brutally without any regard to the damage done to their neighbors, their family, their community, the environment…nothing escapes this destruction. It’s like a cancer it just kills.
I believe in Peace & Love, good will to all men, no war, pestilence or hate, I don’t give a damn about race, even if it’s not reciprocal. However, we are now being attacked by unhinged demons whose master is death and darkness fed to them by their cell phones 24/7 and they simply say “yes master.”
There is only one way. We must restore our Constitution and Bill of Rights pre 1871, We must bring God and the Prince of Peace & Love Jesus Christ back into the town square. Not the bastardized versions sold by the “Counter Culture” for 60 + years.
“The ends justify the means” …works both ways. We either exercise our rights or lose them, look at what they are doing to the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments, they want them gone, prove me wrong.
Please Lord give us the strength and guidance to overcome again this demons onslaught. Help us cast them again into darkness with Your strength and guidance, in Jesus name…amen!
Ultra-MAGA!
Note: Fauci was part of this demonic spawn, shaped by many 60’s radicals.
If I remember correctly, Dr. Spock did not have children.
Neither did Mr. Spock.
What is it about those Spock’s?
Like most liberals, they are functional illiterates, they just talk about a subject but know nothing how it actually works.
I know it’s funny but one of the best examples of this was the movie “Back to School” Rodney Dangerfield and the economics professor.;
“My mother never breast fed me. She told me that she only liked me as a friend.”

Dangerfield on Carson was awesome.
Self-deprecating humor is the best humor. Most comedians today only rag on everyone but themselves. Dangerfield was one of the best, ever.

LOL, especially where I used to live this is so true. The Democrat County ‘gubermint” was a crime cartel ripping off the county residents and amassing the last I checked $600 million in debt. Yes you re4ad that right, and that is just a COUNTY government. Cloward-Piven on the county level
These demons are spread throughout the country at every level. That was part of the plan hatched so many years ago, take over the helm.

Regarding Otto von Bismarck –
At the web site of the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) –
Otto von Bismarck
German Chancellor 1862-1890
https://www.ssa.gov/history/ottob.html
Germany became the first nation in the world to adopt an old-age social insurance program in 1889, designed by Germany’s Chancellor, Otto von Bismarck. The idea was first put forward, at Bismarck’s behest, in 1881 by Germany’s Emperor, William the First, in a ground-breaking letter to the German Parliament. William wrote: “. . .those who are disabled from work by age and invalidity have a well-grounded claim to care from the state.”
Bismarck was motivated to introduce social insurance in Germany both in order to promote the well-being of workers in order to keep the German economy operating at maximum efficiency, and to stave-off calls for more radical socialist alternatives. Despite his impeccable right-wing credentials, Bismarck would be called a socialist for introducing these programs, as would President Roosevelt 70 years later. In his own speech to the Reichstag during the 1881 debates, Bismarck would reply: “Call it socialism or whatever you like. It is the same to me.”
The German system provided contributory retirement benefits and disability benefits as well. Participation was mandatory and contributions were taken from the employee, the employer and the government. Coupled with the workers’ compensation program established in 1884 and the “sickness” insurance enacted the year before, this gave the Germans a comprehensive system of income security based on social insurance principles. (They would add unemployment insurance in 1927, making their system complete.)
One persistent myth about the German program is that it adopted age 65 as the standard retirement age because that was Bismarck’s age. This myth is important because Germany was one of the models America looked to in designing its own Social Security plan; and the myth is that America adopted age 65 as the age for retirement benefits because this was the age adopted by Germany when they created their program. In fact, Germany initially set age 70 as the retirement age (and Bismarck himself was 74 at the time) and it was not until 27 years later (in 1916) that the age was lowered to 65. By that time, Bismarck had been dead for 18 years.
The Jan 6 persecutions continue unabated. Will they keep such records when they ship people by train to gulags or execute them. It may be useful in a trial of crimes against humanity sometime in the future.

Kevin, you are being paged.
1-6-20 is a crime against the American people and Western ideals in general and in the long run will be treated as such.
👍🇺🇲
I agree.
At some point, Americans will learn there was an active operation conducted against them.
Maybe we will find out which side conducted the military like operation to steal the Master At Arms and Speaker of the House’s computers/servers.
Was it a cover up operation to conceal and destroy evidence by bad guys? Or was it an evidence gathering operation by the good guys?
The declaration of an “Insurrection” as a shiny object distraction has me believing it was a cover up. But we’ll see.
At the very least, it exposed some pretenders in the process.
Strange business indeed.
Excellent questions – “Was it a cover up operation to conceal and destroy evidence by bad guys? Or was it an evidence gathering operation by the good guys?”
I suspect the answer will be found within the first question as no information seems to have surfaced that might be traced back to either computers/servers aka leaks still continue to lean 100% against PDJT and MAGA and never against the communist Democrats.

Why ‘bed rotting’ is the newest hot self-care trend for lazy Gen Zers
May 29, 2023
https://nypost.com/2023/05/29/bed-rotting-is-the-newest-hot-self-care-trend-for-lazy-gen-zers/
As experts and introverts continue to tout the benefits of self-care, “bed rotting” has become one of the most popular forms of recouping.
With nearly 305 million views on TikTok, “rotting” away in bed seems to be one of Generation Z’s preferred methods for self-care.
While it may sound extreme — and gross — “bed rotting” just refers to lying in bed for long periods of time.
It doesn’t matter what you do while you’re in bed or why you’re there, as long as you’re cuddled up in bed beyond bedtime.
Some people are “bed rotting” while binge-watching Netflix, stuffing their faces with sugary snacks or simply staring at the ceiling, while others are falling a bit more into the “clean girl” aesthetic by doing face masks, sleeping on silk pillowcases and meditating in bed.
Top 5 questionable TikTok trends so far: From eating Tide Pods to dancing on graves
Mar 31, 2021
https://www.sportskeeda.com/pop-culture/the-5-questionable-tiktok-trends-far-from-eating-tide-pods-challenge-dancing-graves
TikTok promoting topics destructive to our youth and culture while censor anything that might improve it or allow people to know the CCP. THAT is the primary threat of TikTok far more than the acquisition of personal data. Allowing an ENEMY to do this is insane and the fact that “our” government isn’t doing anything about is the umpteenth example of how BOUGHT they are.
TikTok’s Secret ‘Heating’ Button Can Make Anyone Go Viral

https://www.forbes.com/sites/emilybaker-white/2023/01/20/tiktoks-secret-heating-button-can-make-anyone-go-viral/?sh=5098ccf16bfd
TikTok and ByteDance employees regularly engage in “heating,” a manual push that ensures specific videos “achieve a certain number of video views,” according to six sources and documents reviewed by Forbes.
Children are being ‘brainwashed’ by TikTok videos on ‘cool’ trans surgery viewed 26 billion times, campaigners claim – 25 Dec 2021
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10344445/Children-brainwashed-TikTok-videos-cool-trans-surgery.html
Campaigners have accused TikTok of helping children to be ‘brainwashed’ by hosting viral social-media videos that promote changing sex as ‘cool’.
Material posted by transgender influencers on the social networking service – in which they provide advice on transitioning and accessing hormone therapies – has been seen by millions of young viewers.
Some parents are concerned the involvement of TikTok, which became the UK’s most downloaded app last year, is fuelling a ‘social contagion’ of pressure on impressionable youngsters and the rise in teenagers who are identifying as trans.
Apparently, I was ahead of my time.
I tried “bed-rotting” when I was a kid, about a hundred years ago. My father cured me with “belt-whipping”.
You can’t leave out Big Pharma’s help in this regard. Keep’em drugged up, helpless and in bed hiding.
pHARMa – government approved, legal drugging.
The white coats (doctors) are the pushers.
sounds like to me they are all suffering from depression. So called “bed rotting” is just another way of dealing with it.
More like 🧠 brain rotting IMO!
Didn’t click the link- but I hope they added “sleepy chicken” to that TikTok list.
Nope… I don’t watch anything on Fox any more.
Fox News Unveils Replacement For Tucker Carlson
JUN 26, 2023
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/fox-news-unveils-replacement-tucker-carlson
Jesse Watters will replace Tucker Carlson for the 8pm slot, Fox News announced on Monday.
I love Laura Ingrahm’s Promotion life changer, LOL. No one watches anymore and notice Hannity bombed. So funny.
Stilted, snarky Laura.
Never liked her.
Hannity LAST NIGHT Switched His Lapel Pin from His choice of CIA or FBI Pin to a
U.S. Flag with the Gadsden Snake in it’s Stripes Field
( RATINGS MUST REALLY SUCK ! )
Jesse Watters had a good show, but not good enough to lure people back to fox. Too bad Jesse remains with the sly fox. If jesse tells the truth, he will be gone too. So no point in watching fox unless you want to listen to a bunch of lies.
Watters scumbag. Had affair while married with his 25-year-old producer. How was he not fired like the rest of them?
ouch – did not know this, and yes, it puts him on the scumbag list.
Jesse has always been solid MAGA. He must be keeping himself right on the line not to be culled like so many others. Remember super-patriot Trish Regan who sacrificed her lucrative FOX Business show to warn viewers about the Covid Coup?
Woke Hollywood Sinks Into Irrelevance After Multiple Box Office Failures
JUN 26, 2023
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/woke-hollywood-sinks-irrelevance-after-multiple-box-office-failures
Disney’s slate of failed films over the past year has included:
Turning Red, a metaphorical animated film exploring female puberty and menstruation. The movie lost $168 million.
Lightyear, which featured a lesbian relationship and was released right after their fight with Florida. Disney was also accused of removing Tim Allen as the voice actor for the popular Buzz Lightyear character because of his conservative leanings. The movie lost at least $106 million.
Strange World, another animated children’s film featuring thinly veiled climate change propaganda as well as a prominent LGBT relationship involving teen boys. One of the biggest flops in Disney history with a loss of $197 million.
Peter Pan And Wendy, a live action adaptation of the classic, was offloaded quickly to Disney’s streaming service and received dismal audience reviews. The movie boasted a race swapped Peter Pan, race swapped Tinkerbell, gender swapped “lost boys,” and a Mary Sue-like Wendy that battles 200 pound pirates with her sword fighting skills.
The Little Mermaid, a live action adaptation, race swapped the classic Dutch fairy tale character and changed the message of the story from a mermaid seeking the love of a prince to “she don’t need no man to save her.” The movie lost at least $20 million.
Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny, a film which attempts to undermine and deconstruct its title character and replace him with an anti-capitalist feminist activist, has been met with thumbs down from audiences and critics that have seen it so far, along with general disdain by fans of the franchise. It is expected to lose hundreds of millions of dollars for Disney due to its massive budget.
Elemental, a ham-fisted commentary about racism with Disney’s first animated “non-binary” character, is crashing at theaters and is expected to lose tens of millions of dollars. The movie also had the 2nd worst box office debut in Pixar history, a company that was once seen as a sure thing.
Disney isn’t the only leftist media company in the gutter these days, it’s merely the most notorious. Multiple woke movie calamities have struck in the past year from the horrendous ‘Bros,’ to the vapid ‘Fauci’ documentary, to AOC’s climate change documentary which went down in flames, to Amazon’s attempt to hijack Lord of the Rings with their woke ‘Rings Of Power’ series. The list goes on and on, with production losses in the billions for 2022-2023.
It invariably this leads right back to who controls these companies and they could careless in the short run how much money they lose, Black Rock, State Street, Vanguard and to a lesser extent Berkshire-Hathaway. Disney simply bows and says yes to their dark master.
Their demonic mission is Agenda30, the only way to attain this goal, the foundations of the West must be destroyed, #1 on that list is God, the USA and the West as a whole.
A friend went to a $3.00 matinee to check Elemental.
The audience was sparse, and within 20 minutes some kids were sleeping, and by an hour most were either in the lobby or asleep…as were the parents.
Not…one…laugh during the entire movie!
This “culture ” offers nothing, literally nothing, but the same crap everywhere over and over, rammed down everyone’s throat. People are outraged, but worse for Hollywood, they are bored.
What the Left Has Left for America
By Victor Davis Hanson
June 25, 2023
https://amgreatness.com/2023/06/25/what-the-left-has-left-for-america/
So what has the Left conferred on America?
Impeachment once, twice, and more still is a good thing. Better still, it is to try a president even as a private citizen.
Special counsels are wonderful—all the more so if they have nearly two years and $40 million to hire a dream team of partisan lawyers.
A good attorney general is a president’s “wingman” who uses the law to go after enemies and exempt friends and families from the law, while using indictments to pave the way for reelection.
Lawfare is a legitimate tool of the president, especially when targeting a rival threat to his reelection.
High office is a path to riches. Selling your name for tens of millions of dollars is not only legitimate, but a necessary perk of the vice presidency and presidency.
The FBI, the Pentagon, the CIA, the Justice Department, and the IRS are underused assets. With the right mindset and willpower, all are vital tools in neutering your political enemies.
The media is utterly corrupt. What it covers and what it omits are entirely political decisions and thus can be warped accordingly by government rewards and punishments.
What the Left now fears most is the revolutionary model it has bequeathed to America—and what might happen if its monstrous creation falls into politically incorrect hands. (THERE he is 100% wrong because everything he describes above is a tool which ONLY the left possesses because of the politics of the administrative state – W)
Imagine,…IF MAGA actually had control of the levers of power, and wielded them as our enemies do.
A MAGA controlled Congress amends the Patriot act, to add to “terrorism” and “espionage” “election interference” and “public corruption” as grounds for FISA warrants.
When the minority Uniparty D’s and R’s object, they are told to sit down and shut up.
With 702 about searches, and “3 hop” rule, they soon have evidence against those left in Congresss, in both National political parties, State parties, judges, sheriffs, as well as MSM, Big Pharme, the Deep State, etc.
Show trials are conducted, in which former J6 defendants take turns, serving as jurors.
In history, it is later referred to as “The great purge”,..
Oh my, wouldn’t that be nice? 👍
And that’s why its so important for us to work locally on up, as you have reminded us so many times dutch. Join your local Tea party, or start one, or join your local Republican party, even go the meetings. Even start a local taxpayer watch group would help MAGA by exposing the criminals in government

Tucker – Hardcover – July 18, 2023
by Chadwick Moore
For tens of millions of Americans, Tucker Carlson was long the only voice on cable news providing a counternarrative to establishment Washington and the mainstream press on the most important issues of our time: the Covid-19 vaccine, January 6th, the Ukraine war, even UFOs, just to name a few.
His ratings — the highest in cable news history — spoke for themselves. But if there remained any doubt as to the esteem in which Carlson is held, not just by conservatives, but by all who feel alienated by our imperious and self-serving ruling class, it was evident in the outpouring of grief and anger that came with his abrupt firing from Fox News.
Who is Tucker Carlson off camera? How did his upbringing contribute to who he is today? What motivates the man who has been (and will surely reemerge) as the most influential and, in the establishment’s eyes, the most dangerous voice in American politics and culture?
Author Chadwick Moore was granted unprecedented access to Carlson’s professional and personal life. Based on hundreds of hours of interviews with Carlson, his family, colleagues, acquaintances, and enemies, Tucker offers an inside look into one of the most beloved — and polarizing — media figures of our time.
Meanwhile, on the kinetic side of the war,
Clean up, or assassination will now go both ways?
The power and prominence (head of the Aspen Institute) suggest the latter, imho.
It sure has been a tough week for billionaires though.

Salon has a story about an opinion piece from Judge Michael Luttig that was posted in The New York Times Sunday.
The judge is a Bushie who was attacking republicans for supporting President Trump.
I did not abuse myself to read the whole article, but I found it amazing that an appellate judge would use unproven accusations to condemn someone. An appellate judge who does not believe in innocent until proven guilty.
It speaks loudly of the sorry state of our judiciary these days.
“but I found it amazing that an appellate judge would use unproven accusations to condemn someone. An appellate judge who does not believe in innocent until proven guilty. ”
The answer is simple. As you say, he’s a Bushie. And it’s all hands on the deck of the good ship Bush to stink PT.
Very tough talk from the organization that employs drag queens and was unable to defeat the Taliban in Afghanistan after 20 years of trying and a rotten scandalized Navy ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_Leonard_scandal )
China is petrified with fear.
Yet everything the traitors at the Council On Foreign Relations has done is to help China while backstabbing America. “Free Trade” being the biggest. Remember the CFR media sold the lie of Free Trade with “Cheaper Goods” as they closed all of our textile mills and factories. They even made high quality shoes in New England in the late 90’s!
The so-called “Free Trade” Agreements give away the participating countries’ sovereignty and put those same countries on the path of the regionalization goals of Agenda 21 (now called Agenda 2030). The European Union (EU) is an example of this regionalization goal.
The remedy is laissez-faire free markets. But that entails government getting out of the way – and NOT having CONTROL.
Unfortunately, I don’t see that happening anytime soon. 🙁

The Hunter Biden Plea Deal is Way Worse than you Think

Adding to your list, from Paul Sperry
MSM’s misreporting the tax charges v Hunter Biden. He didn’t fail to pay IRS $100,000 annually in 2017 and 2018 on $1.5 million in income each year. That’s just the statutory minimum. He cheated govt out of $2.2 mil on $8.3 mil, which he received primarily from Chinese payola
Wonder how much income the Big Guy didn’t declare or pay in taxes.
America’s first leader: Gov. John Winthrop:
” …for we must Consider that we shall be as a City upon a Hill, the eyes of all people are upon us; so that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken and so cause him to withdraw his present help from us, we shall be made a story and a byword through the world. Beloved, there is now set before us life, and good, death and evil … But if our hearts shall turn away so that we will not obey, but shall be seduced and worship other Gods, our pleasures, and profits, and serve them, it is propounded unto us this day, we shall surely perish out of the good Land whither we pass over this vast Sea to possess it: Therefore let us choose Life, that we, and our Seed, may live; by obeying His voice, and cleaving to Him, for He is our Life, and our Prosperity.”

Montana Republican businessman and former Navy SEAL Tim Sheehy announced his candidacy Tuesday to unseat Democratic Sen. Jon Tester in 2024, according to a campaign video.
The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) Chairman Sen. Steve Daines has been encouraging Sheehy to enter the GOP primary field, where he could face House Freedom Caucus member Rep.

Likely a third candidate as primary draws closer. RNC is the enemy. Too bad the RNC doesn’t spend as much time and money on keeping Dems out of office as they do trying to keep MAGA out of office. Someday . . . .

Wow, what an echo chamber they all are.
At an event, one couple were just a small step right of antifa, if not right there in the muck. I’m in Portland, what can I say?
Anyway the brief turn to politics had these two morons raving about Clarence Thomas. Clarence Thomas. I don’t know what the left reads and do not want to know. If an evil monster like Fauci can be put in charge of anything we are dealing with a war against an enemy whose soldiers are so brainwashed (if they even have a functioning brain) I’m not sure how to fight it.
All I can think of is prayer, fervent. Prayerfare, if you will…

Sick From the Jab, A Young Actress Chose To End Her Own Life
Kat Pave documented the progress of her disorders caused by the jab on Instagram. Finally, she was unable to go on living.
https://www.theflstandard.com/sick-from-the-jab-a-young-actress-chose-to-end-her-own-life/
That’s terrible.
This past weekend, Kat’s friends – many of them in entertainment – held a picnic and a last farewell for their actress friend on a beach in Malibu.
Some friend they are!
We can’t even imagine how many others are out there suffering through the same things. Sickening just sickening.
Stop distorting Daniel Ellsberg’s legacy to disparage other whistleblowers
When our co-founder and legendary Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg passed away last week we wrote that “his long-term legacy may lie with the countless whistleblowers whom he inspired to follow in his footsteps.” But efforts are already underway to lionize him at the expense of 21st century whistleblowers.
Ellsberg staunchly rejected efforts to manufacture distance between his actions in 1971 and theirs decades later. He welcomed Edward Snowden to our board of directors and worked closely with him for years. He retained backup copies of Chelsea Manning’s disclosures to WikiLeaks and regularly called her “my hero.” He called Daniel Hale in prison every Sunday, even when terminally ill.
But, within hours of news of his death, commentators revived tired talking points framing Ellsberg as the lone and inimitable “good” whistleblower, while blatantly ignoring Ellsberg’s own thoughts on the matter.

Hundreds Of Fighting Age Chinese Males Are Entering The Country Each Week – We Have No Idea Why (substack.com):
“What we know for sure is that a very large number of very fit, well-financed Chinese males of military age are entering this country every day. They appear fully prepared for the difficulties of their journey and arrive alert, in well-organized groups, and often in sets of clean clothes, they have kept sealed in plastic bags throughout the trip. This suggests an intention to blend in as effectively as possible immediately on arrival.
If these individuals are being sent here by the CCP the implications are obviously grave. Once in the country, they are turned loose with pieces of paper telling them to appear for hearings that are now being scheduled for years in the future. No one monitors them. No one will compel them to appear for these meaningless hearings.
Hundreds of fighting-age Chinese males are entering the country daily. We have no idea who they are or what they intend, and apparently, no one intends to find out.” …….

The Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto
1848 by Karl Heinrich Marx
How “Marxist” Has the United States Become?
https://www.laissez-fairerepublic.com/TenPlanks.html
Although Marx advocated the use of any means, especially including violent revolution, to bring about socialist dictatorship, he suggested ten political goals for developed countries such as the United States. How far has the United States — traditionally the bastion of freedom, free markets, and private property — gone down the Marxist road to fulfill these socialist aims? You be the judge. The following are Marx’s ten planks from his Communist Manifesto.

The Wild and Free Pigs of the Okefenokee Swamp

The Price of Free Corn
The allegory of the pigs has a serious moral lesson. This story is about “free” tax money being used to bait, trap, and enslave a once free and independent people.
Federal, state, and local welfare, in its myriad forms, has reduced not only individuals to a state of dependency. State and local governments are also on the fast track to elimination, due to their functions being subverted by the command and control structures of federal “revenue sharing” programs.

reposting this tidbit
Maybe just share highlights. Most can’t stand to listen to lying rino Laura.
do not fret, it is cued up to an observation a lawyer made about Garland.
sheesh, ostrich much?
sheesh, fox lover much?
We all have our own choices. He made his, you do you.
Anything on Fox is suspect. Interesting how many links today for Fox posted here after President Trump’s truthful admonition of them today, don’t ya think?
yeah, let’s post lots of links to Fox, worded so Treepers will click (or so you it is hoped) and boost the ratings so can say President Trump wrong and talking mean again. Hoh hum.
Your response is better than mine.
snark much?
do a jigsaw puzzle and feel better.
go to the beach, find yourself a safe space with a blanket, and continue to be a bum and live up to your name.
go off on the host next time he links something from an interview from a cable news outlet, I dare ya.
FBI/DOJ censors us enough. That is what you are doing too.
Just an observation….The links to Fox appear more abundant today. Seen this played before.
We Stop This NOW Or Our Economy Dies

I know, you won’t read this if you’re even slightly-leftward because…. it’s Fox.
Louisiana environmentalists and locals are growing increasingly concerned about certain carbon capture projects supported by President Biden’s climate initiative, as nearby Black communities grapple with already elevated cancer risks from existing chemical plants.
The EPA was never intended to be able to regulate carbon in any form. CO2 is not a “pollutant”; it is plant food.
It is also the inevitable emission generated by every living animal on Earth. It thus cannot be a “pollutant.”
Carbon is also, I remind you, the entire basis of western society and our economy.
I don’t care if you like this or not; it is fact. Thermodynamics is not the “book of suggestions” and there is no alternative that works on a planet in which all life is carbon based and all energy transformed by said life ultimately traces to carbon.
We are all carbon-based life forms. So is the tree in your yard, your cat, dog, the mosquito that bites you, the bee that pollinates your flowers and the crops you rely on to live, and so on. By mass carbon is the second largest contributor to a plant or animal by mass; only oxygen is greater (and that, almost-exclusively, is due to water content.)
YOU ARE NOT A POLLUTANT AND NEITHER ARE THE THINGS YOU EAT.

troll
Ocaam’s Razor. Why the increase in Fox links? Hint: It is not be ause DB is i troll. Have a great day!
The Fox link is because Ticker Guy, whom I and others (including Sundance) have posted from many many times, decided today to talk about energy, an absolutely vital story, which he has written about maybe hundreds of times before.
It’s pretty much evident in the small amount I posted, why the link from Fox is in there.
Every red state should follow this lead. This is the ONLY chance we have to preserve some free parts of this country.
A red state coalition of Anti-Communists must form and begin aggressive, legal actions now.
There is no need for an FBI. The states can create an information and resources sharing organization under control of the states and fully independent of the national government. It would operate essentially like the original concept behind Interpol.
If the fed govt wants to arrest a citizen of Iowa, it should have to go through Iowa law enforcement to do so.
Extreme federalism is our only hope to save the country

That’s why I pointed out the Biden calling him a “Dictator”. It’s classic mealy mouthed double talking bs. The globalists have been working hand over fist to build up China while weakening & demolishing America. It’s a major reason why they hate PDJT, MAGA, & Heritage America, because there is still enough of us to legitimately outvote them, thus their stepped up genocide programs to kill and replace Heritage America

There MUST be accountability for the people who deliberately stole a presidential election – and those who were unwilling to perform their sworn duty and investigate and prosecute those who did the crime.
Barr must be held to account.
He ended his friend Boobey Mueller’s investigation, because he became the next phase of the cover-up and to make sure the traitors coup plotters did not face justice. It’s high treason which is grounds for capital punishment.

Saints Patrick and Columba: the Irish and the world need you more than ever!
Atheist Communists in control of Ireland: incredible, dismaying, yet a sign that the faithful must become more active or be put into extermination camps spiritually and…eventually….physically!
The beautiful religious country of Ireland is no more. St. Patrick must be in tears right now. Very sad what has become of those citizens who try to remain Irish.
“Indigenous peoples” matter so much to Western governments, except when it comes to the Irish.

This morning’s print edition of the “Wall Street Journal”” – far right column:
“Prigozhin Denies Coup Bid As Putin Raps Him”
“Wagner chief says he didn’t aim to oust president; Kremlin seeks to show control”
The parallel universe continues!
If any of the “coup” news was true, wouldn’t Prigozhin be dead?
Isn’t that kinda what Putin is known for doing, all these years, to people who irritate him ? Polonium tea? Top-floor defenestrations?
Yet he’s not, and is free to go, and to still fight for RF.
Pull the other one: it’s got bells on it!
Yeah, our news is truly a parallel universe. Created by our government. Helped by the government of Ukraine.
Who knows whether or not Russia has their own parallel universe? Ours won’t let us hear from Russia.
Take speech transcripts, for example. I have saved several, but I never found them anywhere on American media. They seem to be kind of important.
It’s like that comedian said about Covid: “Don’t you know everything that needs to be readed already been readed by smart people?!”

Bannon’s ripping MCCarthy a new one this morning because of what he said yesterday about PTrump on squawk box. Taking MCCarthy right down and telling PTrump that MCCarthy and his friends are sticking a knife in Trump everyday and they should be banished from Trump’s circle and called out. This isn’t news to us here at CTH Steve. MCCarthy is a slippery snake in the weeds looking for every chance he can to sneak a strike into Trump.
Bannon is calling every other candidate in the repub party “the Keebler Elves,” lol. Steve said he’s going on a jihad against MCCarthy and his buddies. Bannon is coming in ‘hot’ this morning. Says they’re looking for more Keebler elves and are getting them all fitted out for elf costumes. It’s hilarious but serious too.

He’s been calling them Keebler’s Elves for a long time. He’s as good as GG sometimes.
I am watching also cjzak, what McCarthy said about Biden able to beat anyone in the election was disgusting.

Yeah, taking the gavel away option was promised, too.

Some people in Texas still can’t see that RDS is a backstabbing lying fraud.
Bannon just destroyed Ron D on WarRoom. Correctly pointing out that he was nowhere to be found in Congress when President Trump was trying to build the wall.
He’s just like Delusional Joe, stealing President Trump’s policies. Only difference between them is age.
And this includes building the wall, and pretending President Trump hasn’t already very successfully completed most of that job, miraculously!

So many are so skilled at describing what we are living in.. and I read read read all the eloquence..
I wonder if Mark Levin reads CTH..?
Levin is a Lawyer, Constitutional Scholar, has written many excellent books on the subject, was Chief of Staff for the AG under Reagan, was – when it came to legal matters – the primary adviser to Rush Limbaugh and is considered a friend by PDJT.
Okay.. What does this mean?
It means that Trump was sworn in as president and as president he had the constitutional right to declassify any document he wanted.

Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Barrett are every bit the leftist scum we feared they were, wiping their shoes on the plain language of the Constitution. There is no Republic when the judiciary invents things that aren’t explicitly stated in the Constitution and no, “it doesn’t say you can’t” is not a valid reason for ignoring what the Constitution actually states.
Barrett was chosen specifically for her willingness to flout the Bill of Rights when somebody wanted to yammer about an emergency.
Or when states passed a law.
I’m guessing Roberts has been purchased, Kavanaugh and Barrett are cowards.

Watch: KJP Threatens to Abruptly End Briefing After Clashing With Simon Ateba
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre threatened to abruptly end Monday’s press briefing after Today News Africa White House correspondent Simon Ateba interrupted her.
Ateba once again lamented over Jean-Pierre refusing to call on him for the past nine months, right after she publicly condemned the harassment of journalists.
“You’ve been discriminating against me for the past nine months,” Ateba said.
“Stop,” one reporter said. “How is she discriminating?”
“She called on you. She just gave you a few questions. Please, allow me to do my job and ask my question,” he replied.
Jean-Pierre called on another reporter, but Ateba continued, leading her to threaten to end the briefing.
“If this continues, we’re gonna end the press briefing,” she said. “If this continues — you’re being incredibly rude. You’re being incredibly rude. You’re talking over your colleagues.”
“I am not talking over my colleagues,” Ateba pushed back.

Who didn’t see the coming KJP train wreck the second Biden’s handlers announced she was replacing that other red-headed Progressive Dingbat?
KJP lives in a world where Leftist Lesbians of Color can do no wrong simply because they are Leftist Lesbians of Color. She is a product of BLM / CRT / DEI indoctrination. . . . . In other words, she isn’t bright enough to comprehend just how stupid she is and wears her ignorance as a badge of honor.
Ateba has few if any colleagues in there. 98% of them are children who came in from the playground.
He’s not shown, but I do believe that the reporter who challenged Mr. Ateba, a black man, on whether KJP was discriminating against him, was a white man.

DeSantis is still the current governor and they depend on him for funding. So, no surprise. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was pressure put on them by the campaign (just like the lobbyists).
It’s OK though. They will be happily(and likely more enthusiastically) endorsing Trump in the general election.
