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…

Listening to the Glenn Beck Clown Show and him talking about the GOP presidential candidate forum he sponsored this past weekend.
This is the guy who hawks his books about the Deep State, and to be truthfully honest, they are quite good. Yet, he continues to sing the praises of Ron DeSwampis.
It’s just a reminder that conservative talk radio is not to be trusted either. They say all the right things about the GOPe and the Deep State, but voice their praises and support for a man being backed by both entities.
Trump is the only candidate who is not for sale and not in bed with these people. We have to remind ourselves of that fact over and over again going into 2024.
i am not going to attribute motive to all these players, per se…. what i observe is that the “average” conservative is still not paying full attention to the depth of the depravity, and in a lot of ways really does not want to. my in laws – fully good people and on the “right side” in general – but just not paying enough attention to understand that the “deep state” includes a LOT of people they otherwise consider decent human beings.
frankly, its not that different than so many here: they keep telling themselves that the republic is still functioning and everything is going to be fine if they just vote harder.
“the next vote is the most important in our lives!”…. no… the most important one already came and went.
“frankly, its not that different than so many here: they keep telling themselves that the republic is still functioning and everything is going to be fine if they just vote harder.
“the next vote is the most important in our lives!”…. no… the most important one already came and went.”
Okay. Now finish that thought out to its logical conclusion…..
If there is no more voting, there is only one response to that: war.
So what you mistakingly take to be the Ostrich Syndrome on the part of some is really just their unwillingness to rush to war, which only fools rush to war. And war is not a surefire solution either, since wars are so fluid that nobody can predict the outcome.
All avenues must be exhausted before you consign yourself to the war solution, no matter how fruitless those efforts may be.
Thank you. So many refuse to acknowledge this fact.
Precisely.
It is a duty and obligation.
First to God. Second to the Constitution. Third to our families and fellow man.
And it’s not so much that people refuse to a knowledge this fact as it is that so few seem to understand it, and why.
“All avenues must be exhausted before you consign yourself to the war solution, no matter how fruitless those efforts may be.”
agree FULLY and am always curious why people make the leap to “war” when no such leap was stated. there are about a 1000 steps between now and then, many of which could be effective and very few of which have been tried.
” curious why people make the leap to “war” when no such leap was stated.”
It was stated, because a dictatorship is defined as a form of government in which one person or a small group possesses absolute power without effective constitutional limitations, and the people have no say in their government.
Those who live in a dictatorship have only two choices: 1) Accept the dictatorship, or 2) Forcibly overthrow the dictatorship, because no dictator has ever willingly given up power.
When you find yourself living under a dictator, which option will you choose?
We do not want to get to the point of consigning our society to a dictatorship and then determine what must be done to throw off the shackles. A bit late I would say.
I disagree with the way you set up your argument because what what we do does not need to be either or.
We can work on multiple approaches at the same time. People have different talents and interests and breakthroughs come in unexpected ways.
Americans, who have been dumbed down and brainwashed for decades, will choose dictatorship. Communists know that they’ve all but won because they have our youth firmly in their grip. And that is our fault. We allowed it by trusting our children to a government run education system and then allowing that education system to exclude God, Christianity and everything this nation was founded to be. They have the most powerful weapon they could need, our youth. But don’t take my word for it. Look at what our youth is interested in, what they’re doing and what’s important to them. It’s a Brave New World already.
I see articles everyday where kids are pushing back at the woke educators and parents raising hell at school board meetings.
‘They’ don’t have our youth yet and there is pushback.
And the most powerful weapon is the belief and acknowledgment that God is supreme.
And it ain’t over by a long shot!
Doom and gloom and ‘just give up’ won’t work. But you can keep trying.
Totally agree. We have before us right at this moment, the battle at the box office and THAT is playng out as a win. How can we capitalize or piggyback on this victory?
during Trump’s first term there were a *lot* of traffickers busted & women & children rescued…
maybe “remembering when…” talk & sharing of those press releases, EOs, etc. would be effective now…
I found this yesterday – connecting dots…
{ trafficking pizzagate IM — Anatomy of a Conspiracy Theory }
And I archived a boatload of press releases & video announcements from Sheriffs & US Marshalls- example… though many of my bookmarks on trafficking busts have since been scrubbed off YT- shocking; I can search the WayBackMachine and Rumble/Bitchute etc.
{ trafficking Michigan sheriff’s office sweep finds 7 missing kids, including 16-year-old victim of human trafficking | wthr.com } 8/2020

Just had a discussion about this very thing. I remember, at the time, it was the only saving grace of the Sessions appointment. I was aware of OUR back then and wondered if they were working with PDJT administration. Like our drug epidemic, as long as there is a market, a demand a supply chain and corrupt governments, business will thrive.
Doesn’t take a genius to come up with a solution, but it does need a nation with a moral compass to end it. Pray that we find our way back to God.
Thank you for posting this. A lot of good information you’ve archived. Trump’s 4 years was like living in dog years, so much happened in so little time. Impossible to recall it all without references.
“If there is no more voting, there is only one response to that: war.” Do not agree at all, at least not in the “armed” definition of war.
Agree that all avenues must be exhausted. Voting has been exhausted and is sure failure. Not sure what further evidence is needed to convince people. Definition of insanity.
So other than a revolution, what is the alternative?
We need to change our processes for voting. Treat it like a war, but in the end, if not the vote, then the bullet. And we are not there yet.
No, it is not an “either, or” choice. That is totally false.
“We need to change our processes for voting. “. I mean no disrespect, but that is pipedream. Repeatedly stating the obvious is silly. We all know what NEEDS to be done, but realistically it doesn’t stand a chance of happening. Very few are looking at what CAN be done. Very few ask the questions “What power do we have and how can we use it.”
My husband quite simply states “If we couldn’t remove a piece of paper from our face, we don’t really have the courage to change anything.” Many won’t like hearing that, but it is the truth.
A pipe dream, huh? Lots of news from various states starting to change things.
But since you asked the question, please tell us “what is the power we have and how can we use it?”
You ask as if I am someone who is playing some game of “I know something you don’t know”. The questions of what power we have and how can we use it is meant to be thought provoking and problem solving. But go right ahead and “fix” our voting system. Certainly a solution.
We have already had successes in specific precincts. Please check out precinctstrategy.com.
When do you estimate, at this rate, we will have national election integrity? Another paramount question, even with election integrity, who are we electing?
I don’t know and neither do you.
But here is something I do know. I worked in software development most of my life defining new systems and implementing them.
The way it is done is logical and methodical — for example lots of planning and testing. However, I’ve also seen studies that show even better results (viable systems) are sometimes achieved by what might be called competent and creative chaos.
In my opinion. that’s how President Trump achieves his results.
We have very little time and our resources are not as organized as they could be.
So I think creative chaos is the way to go and pray we can gain competency. And it is true that pockets of these people are gaining traction.
It is a better plan than sitting on our collective ass.
Guess we’ll see the results in 2024.
Yes, and this one is huge.
What I also keep thinking about is even if President Trump re-elected, our lives will not be easy. He will go full force (he has no choice) and the fight back will be the same. I shutter at the thought of what the globalists might do. All I know for certain is President Trump is our best chance at getting our country back and MAGA.
Trump, a great man, will need the Hand of God, full force, to alter the path we are on.
Frankly, we just do not have time to worry about election successes in low level elections…
We are fast approaching the Presidential “election” of 2024, which will be the deciding factor in whether or not we will retain our nation and our freedom, or will be communist slaves.
The only way we will get better at winning elections (stopping the cheat) is to get better at “doing” elections. We were cheated not just in 2022 and 2020, but in many elections before that. For example, most of us believe CA has been cheated for years.
If we are to have our votes count, we need to get better at elections. That includes knowing how they cheat, getting more people on our side to vote, and doing what we need to do to be sure our votes count. These are not simple things to achieve because we have neglected them for so long. We need to improve our strategies and learn how to execute better.
That is why precinct strategy matters. The point is not that we won in a certain precinct righ tnow.
The point is we are learning how to win and that will carry over to future elections (2024), instead of having that election stolen.
You are correct in that we don’t have time, and we really don’t have time for people like you to argue that what we’re doing doesn’t matter. If you don’t work at something, you won’t get very far, as our past behavior has proven.
First off, as ALL options before WAR are to be explored, I believe it is wrong, or at least incorrect for MB, who I respect and those who agree with him, to dismiss voting.
Won’t rehash it all now, just to say those that argue that “Until we have,…” and then rattle off 5-6 things on their “wish list” are naive, as there are at least 65 things we need to address to have transparently secure elections.
But, I believe we CAN win in 2024, once enough of us now understand that waiting on the RNC to counter ballot fraud, is like waiting on bonnie and clyde to prevent bank robberies.
And, it is largely because WE, the People organised after 2020, instead of waiting for somebody else, that we have made significant progress. NOT in “establishing transparent, fair elections, that is still a far off goal, much like getting Justice.
I am writing about the more immediate goal of WINNING an election, which is a different thing altogether.
So, “we can not vote our way out of tyrany”,…
IF we WERE living in tyrany, you would be reading my words scrawled on a gulag wall, while waiting your turn as an unwilling participant in organ donor roulette.
“Theres no point in voting in 2024, they will just steal it like they did in 2020 and 2022.”
First off, other than the emotional protection of “i’ll,…never fall in love again?”,..whats the point in NOT voting?
As I have clarified in previous comments, they can NOT use the “Dominion algorythm” again. And the algorythms found in the NYS voter rolls, only enabled them to “shuffle” the voters on the rolls, like a deck of cards; they did NOT involve changing votes, only mamipulating the voter rolls; in order to sort out the phantom voters, so that they could use them for ballot stuffing.
ALL they have for 2024, is the RNC trying to prevent PDJT from having the nomination, which they are failing at, the D wings prosecutor Indictment strategy, also a big fail, or ballot fraud.
And with ballot fraud, all they have is Ballot stuffing using phantom voter mail out ballots, and VOTER SUPPRESSION.
I have written extensively on a 3 tiered approach to addressing this.
Firstly, a ramped up GOTV effort, taylored to MAGA voters, aka “legal ballot harvesting” with two main goals; firstly to counter this “no point in voting, they will just steal it narrative” that is a major part ofthe enemies voter suppression effort, and is going on right now with influencers on every alt-right commenting board.
Secondly, to EDUCATE our voters on CHANGING the WAY they vote, in order to evade the election voter suppressions of our enemy.
If they KNOW we are ALL going to vote”in person, on election day” it makes it very easy for them to suppress our votes.
In addition, as we now KNOW HOW they are exploiting the bloated with phantom voters voter rolls, AND the mail out ballot system, I have layed out a two tiered approach for addressing it.
Vaccumming up as many phantom voter ballots as WE can, to deprive the enemy of them.
Think of this,as attacking an enemy convoy transporting ammo.
And, for those so inclined, finding the MOTHER SHIP where the envelope stuffing takes place, and frankly at the least stealing these ballots from them, (equivalent to blowing up a large ammo dump) or even,…shooting the enemies own ammo back
at them.
There really is no valid, common sense reason to simply concede that they are going to”just steal it again, so we can’t win, so why bother to TRY.”
Defend such a position LOGICALLY, RATIONALLY and UNEMOTIONALLY, …you CAN’T.
Voice of Freedom, with a MSM Big Tech blackout of advertising, and being shown almost exclusively in AMC theaters in large metro cities, not only had a “blockbuster” $40 opening, but is actually INCREASING ticket sales and on track for $100 million, and yet we are supposed to believe these large metro cities are SO “Blue” that they not only overwhelm any “Red” votes in those cities, but in the whole rest of the rural, ruby red State?
WE have the opportunity in 2024 to not only elect PDJT, but to finally expose and discredit this whole gaslight of “50/50nation with slightly more voting Democrat” oncr and for all.
And, we have an OBLIGATION TO TRY, and NO valid reason NOT to try.
Finally, I would say “are you MAGA, and is PDJT your recognised LEADER of MAGA?
Cause I sure don’t see HIM saying “Oh, no point in voting in 2024, cause they will just steal it again!”
ARE you a “treeper”, and do you come here because you look to Sundance for Truth and direction?
Don’t see him posting any articles propounding the “just give up, THEY havr ballot fraud down pat, and theres nothing we can DO about it!”
With all due respect, WE must resist this false narrative, aimed directly at US, and dispute it EVERY time it is expressed, because its sole purpose is MAGA VOTER SUPPRESSION.
IMHO,..
^^^ This ^^^ Thank you for saying this, it’s so much on point!
Dutch, you have a brilliant mind and articulate your thoughts eloquently. I have read your posts for years and for years you, and many others are caught up in the same circular arguments.
Many of your points are correct, rarely have the projected outcomes come to fruition.
Having the opinion that voting is not our solution is not the same as surrendering, far from it. IMHO, all this time spent on proudly showcasing our “solutions” in this group admiration society is nothing more than a prideful, egotistical passtime and I certainly partake.
I find much truth here, but also see agendas and have not seen any real direction. Pep talks, yes; actions, no. I’ve been around long enough to know that few things can fill all our needs, but I usually hope for more. Exposure is not enough. “Awareness is the booby prize”.
I wonder how folks see all this playing out. Even if DJT remains a free man, wins the nomination, wins the election, do people really believe he will have the cooperation of the DC crowd, the media, the very institions who spied on him, falsified documents, impeached him, refused to carry out his orders, set him up, raided him? Do folks see a sea of trustworthy MAGA candidates occupying the west wing, the cabinet, and other positions? Is the Senate going to suddenly push through his nominations? Pass his legislative actions, a budget? Magical thinking. There’s a long line of powerful men (and women) like Fauci, turtle, soros, who hold the real power. Our POTUS is nothing more than a figurehead, and at best, a tool. Desantis is just one more decepticon, and our elections a placebo. All of which are distractions. Sands in the hourglass have just about run out.
You vote to make the Steal more obvious, so MORE people will be upset and disgusted, so that you WANT has more people with MORE anger to get them off the fence and on their feet.
You vote hard, you ballot harvest hard, you video tape the ballot harvestors and inform them if they commit illegalities the information will be handed over to whomever.
They don’t ballot harvest so much as they ballot manufacture with fictitious names and addresses. Republicans are amateurs and the only way they can win is to stop mail in, remove machines and have an accurate list of eligible citizen voters in every county. Anyone standing in the way, must be primaried.
The other factor to keep in mind is that we are learning how to vote and how to track voting. So when we say “vote” it is an event and a process that is in some ways “changing.” In other words, we are getting smarter about the whole voting strategy and process.
Another thing to realize is that if the evangelicals had voted in larger numbers in 2020 we may have changed the outcome.
Sites like True the Vote and precinctstrategy,com have great info. It never hurts to become better informed and who knows what we might achieve if we work at it.
FYI: If you live in AZ, Kari
Lake is focused on voting strategy and her site has a lot of info. If you don’t live there, that info might help in your state.
yea our elections have turned into the smartest scammers win.
complete BS what this has become.
this has to be ended one day.
My answer as to how to vote is easy; vote early and serve as a precinct judge on election day (i.e. I’m the one who, with the R and D rep, actually tallies the votes and makes sure that everything matches up.
I can’t control everything, but I can ensure no fraud in my precinct.
If you aren’t involved on election day already; get involved. It will help.
Who counts the mail-in votes?
Who matches the signatures?
Who checks the voter roll that the person who sent in the mail-in ballot is truly eligible?
Who carries thee thumb drive to the County Clerk?
Who checks that the thumb drive matches the total at the precinct?
And, what other avenues do you suggest we take, Michael?
Voting the communists out of power is not a viable solution as you will see in 2024.
Perhaps you think our corrupt “congress” is going to reverse course and start doing what needs to be done to save our nation and our freedom?
Or, perhaps you think we can depend on our corrupt court system to suddenly start enforcing the law of the land and making legal decisions based on the law rather than on who filed the suit in question?
Perhaps our FBI will start investigating the continuing fraud, theft, and other crimes by our politicians and will petition the DOJ to file charges on the aforesaid politicians…
Perhaps our Department of State and our Department of Defense will suddenly realize that dictator zelenski is simply a “shake-down” artist and that Vladimir Putin is actually the good guy who is trying to help the Ukrainian people in the current war in which we shouldn’t even be involved?
Or, perhaps you think the Cavalry will sound “Charge” and come riding over the hill to rescue us, free the J6 political prisoners, and save our nation and our freedom, just like they did in the old hollywood movies?
Perhaps we can “boycott” our way out of this communist takeover by refusing to buy Bud Lite beer, refusing to do business with Target stores, and by not watching NASCAR or Fox News on TV?
Suggestions re: “Other Avenues” will be appreciated, feel free to offer them below…
You won’t likely gets suggestions of “other avenues” that can’t be done from a keyboard anonymously on the (Socialist/Marxist controlled) internet.
And yet he keeps trying everyday.
🤔
Deep down I think most of us know what has to be done, but we are an extremely slow to cold anger rage to get us there. At least for now.
You have accurately listed a number of problems that are contributing to our demise. There are many more, none of which voting will fix. We have many elected officials that we did in fact elect. Elections are a placebo.
Just ask Austria and Poland how that nice little platitude worked for them. We’ve already waited to long and had our national integrity obliterated bit by bit, for decades, until anything that involves personal involvement or sacrifice has become “unconscionable”. The same goes for immigration. The only viable solution, which is forcible removal and deportation, would be “barbaric”. Thus we descend into true barbarism, totalitarianism, and the obliteration of any personal freedoms we may have left at this time. All that will be left is a lot of sad “if only we had fought them”stories in history books. That is, if there are such things as books or history in our future.
Yes, I never cease to be amazed at the posters here on CTH that still believe we can vote our way our of this communist takeover of our Nation…
The real question is: What will we do when the commies steal the “election” of 2024?
indeed.
although i try to be cautious lately here, lest i be called a fed or provocateur and fatalistic… IMO the steal is a foregone conclusion.
the more interesting question is whether we will continue to consent to be governed with our passivity and obedience to the system and its rules.
I have tried to be more cautious, Muley, to no avail…
I continue to think that something MUST be said in attempt to awaken American Citizens to what has actually happened, rather than lead them to continue to believe that we can “vote” our way out of this obvious communist takeover.
I have already been called names, and continue to be called names, but I subscribe to the “sticks and stones” theory and will continue trying to awaken folks to the truth of the matter.
They can call me what they wish… Perhaps after the stolen “election” of 2024 they will finally “wake up and smell the roses”…
Here’s an idea:
Rather than being a provocateur asking others what we should do and lambasting their earnest replies, why not just state exactly what your action plan is in detail and specifically what those actions are to take back control of our country in detail and offer the leadership skills in carrying out your plan?
All I keep seeing from you is ‘hinting’ (like bait) for someone to commit to, or persuade others to commit, or conspire to commit to some form of violent action. When they respond with anything other than that, you mock them, continue ‘hinting’ but won’t say it yourself.
You keep saying you’re waking us up to what’s going on. Guess what:
WE TREEPERS KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HAS HAPPENED AND WHAT IS GOING ON! There’s not a damn thing you can enlighten us with about what is going on!
Be the man! Say what you think exactly it will take to win back control of our government.
You play the victim (again) about being called names, etc. Maybe there’s a reason why that keeps happening.
Now, go whine to the mods again like you did the other day with a few of your ‘buddies’ about being mistreated.
It’s pretty obvious what you’re trying to do and it ain’t working.
You’re not near as good as you think 🤔!
Good reminder, ‘sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me’ – said that many times growing up.
It’s usually the same hair-triggered people that automatically assign the troll moniker to any comments that don’t align perfectly with their current belief system.
I embrace the concept that we get to sit on our branches, and partake in c0nversation – that alone is how we will find our way through this maze and avoid as much as possible the landmines that are, most definitely, set by real provocateur’s (the Ray Epp’s of this world) that have found a limb to sit. It gets old though. Being tagged a troll without even trying to have a conversation to see if there’s something new we can learn and employ in our day-to-day sand throwing activities.
Perhaps you can take up the mantle of answering Tojak’s provocative questions to everyone.
He offers no solutions and claims all current efforts are futile claiming immediate actions before the election, but wants everyone else to offer those ‘immediate actions.’
Maybe you can tell us all what those ‘immediate actions’ are for us to take before the election even gets here.
Which thoughts are those that don’t align with others’ current belief system?
Suggesting someone say something about committing violence or conspiring to such?
And where do you see above the word ‘troll?’ Projection?
Strange how you showed up to defend when he got challenged, like with little flowers.
Did you notice she changed tactics yesterday and it backfired miserably?
Part of conversations are being challenged. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to participate.
But, when even the hint of illegal activity shows up and I see it, I’m going to call it out!
Get used to it!
Here’s my working theory, President Trump has shown that communication, negotiation, give and take – instead of openly, bluntly calling those who are opposed to his views, has found a way to get people to share, and adjust, their ideas, and
this all starts with asking questions.
Perhaps you could answer mine – what specifically is it that you see that immediately causes you to label this poster, Tojak, as a provocateur? Pose that to him/her/it – let’s see what the issue is, instead of stalking everything that person (?)/bot(?) posts –
let’s get to the point of it. We can learn from your observation, and may even learn from the reply.
So many of us ask what we can say to our loved ones and friends who have yet to see the strings, to help them see the strings – calling them names certainly isn’t going to show them how to see what you see, it just shuts them down.
As an example, again, take PDJT and the fact that he tries to get it through thick heads after the Roe overturned ruling, that this ruling has given the Republicans/right leaning people in their State and local governments a tremendous negotiating power – and no one seems to pick up on that fact that we are still in a negotiating period when it comes to that one issue,
and there are tons of issues everywhere – so why can’t we try to learn from a master negotiator, here on this Tree, how to talk with those we have some inherent disagreement with, and learn from that how to take that style of communication into our daily life with those we love and care about?
What, as President Trump famously said, do we have to lose?
I have found, when questions are asked – and never attempted to be answered, therein lies the troll. But, that is also a working theory.
p.s. as far as immediate actions, for myself, it was signing up as a volunteer, and getting trained, and working at the polls. Working my way up to being one of those counters when ballots are all turned in for scanning at the next election.
It starts one step at a time. Work it is the phrase I found myself saying during the last election cycle – “I’m working it!” and learned a ton of things in the process about our local election processes.
find something that you are drawn to “work it” and doors open. They really do. It’s our modern version of getting in their faces, kind of like what James O’Keefe is now creating, citizen journalists, eyes, ears, phones and recording devices everywhere.
That’s what comes to mind with that question. That was a great question by the way. Thanks. I really did learn a lot by stepping into the arena when I saw there was an opening. I think we can all find our niche.
as to your other questions – it’s in my nature to step in when others are being bullied. Can’t help it. Might be a weakness, but I’ve “shown up” many times over the years.
I want to learn from others, what are they seeing, specifics, that I have not yet learned to see – I need all the arrows in the quiver as possible, these coming years are only going to get more difficult and so I try to follow the guidelines set up that have given this tree huge roots – this is a discussion, ask to have comments clarified, and no personal attacks.
and, how do you know this Tojak is a she? I assumed a man.
Thank you for asking.
How about checking his comments (all of them) against what I challenged him on.
The answer lies within.
And you’re already claiming name calling. Really? Where?
You’re the only one I see doing that in this conversation.
You mean when he who you are defending asks a question he won’t provide a clear workable answer is ok, and wants others to say something that could be interpreted as criminal in nature but the person who challenges it is the ‘troll.’
Give me a break!
BTW, that is the second time YOU’VE name called!
What is your obsession with the word ‘troll?’ I haven’t used it one time, but you keep bringing it up!
Projecting again?
What part of taking aggressive action(s) before the election because everything else is futile and asking others to provide the answer, rather than providing an answer yourself with insinuation to what could be done other than elections that doesn’t suggest insurrection or sedition do you not understand?
This is not the first time this has been noticed not only by me, but others.
As I stated before, “when even the hint of illegal activity shows up and I see it, I’m going to call it out.”
Get used to it. It ain’t going away.
And I have no idea what you are talking about with referring to Tojak as a man.
Ans I don’t like or appreciate anybody telling me what I should be involved with or not. I don’t appreciate unsolicited advice.
You do your thing and I’ll do mine, and we’ll see how it works out.
Sounds like a plan; let’s see how things develop.
You would definitely be voted one of the most obnoxious posters on this site. Give it a break. Bless You Dear.
An interim measure is something PDJT used successfully; economic war.
Every day people continue to feed the Communist machine by not willing to suffer and make choices that stop that feeding, the grip grows tighter.
We can each examine our own lives to see how we’re feeding the machine. We work, we spend, we save, we pay taxes, we invest, we borrow. Examine those choices and how they support the regime that oppresses us. Then decide.
War doesn’t have to mean bullets bombs and bioweapons. The Communists do that and, so far, we’ve taken a lot of casualties without even a measured response. Does that embolden them? Readers can decide.
You vote to make the Steal more obvious, so MORE people will be upset and disgusted, so that you WANT has more people with MORE anger to get them off the fence and on their feet.
WhiteBoard has a point! “You vote to make the Steal more obvious, so MORE people will be upset and disgusted, so that you WANT has more people with MORE anger to get them off the fence and on their feet.” President Trump has been aware of this long before he walked down the escalator at Trump Towers. The citizenry must see for themselves the extreme level of corruption, which has and is being exposed lawfully by President Trump. They, the citizenry, have to see it for themselves before they commit their lives, fortune and sacred honor to restore our Constitutional Republic. When that time comes it will be a glorious moment, because nothing is greater than We the People…
Yep this is where Sunlight meets Spontanous Standing Up by Individuals everywhere.
Do you mean like the J6ers? When, after J6 have you seen a large protest from the right? Fear works! They’re not about to risk jail time for their country. Sad but true. “Let’s not give them what they want. Let’s just sit here until they tell us it’s over.”
I don’t know about you but I’ve seen several videos recently (not on MSM) where people from the right were confronted by Fed agent provocateurs.
The provocateurs got their asses handed to them.
So much for fear.
Most of the ‘right’ aren’t out protesting because they work, unlike the paid leftist terrorists agitators called ‘protesters.’
Amen! You’re spot on. What will we do when that happens?
find a way to do it that makes the FBI have to do illegal stuff to surveill you.
screaming any word similar to war could be a great idea or a terrible one, who knows.
Fascists raise their sheep on Socialism. Socialists are soft and easy to manipulate, and control.
The Socialist is so sure of their core beliefs, and righteous existence, that they fail to see the Fascists who created them.
The State Legislatures have to get rid of >90% of the mail-in ballots. That will give us chance at a more fair election in 2024.
It can be done – YES. Will it be done – almost certainly not.
It just shows the seductive nature of the old paradigm, “Republicans vs. Democrats”.
Despite the anti-Woke posturing, DeSantis is just Mitch McConnell with a better chin.

well said
How can you claim knowledge about what ‘the average’ conservative thinks? Generalization much?
You may even end up being correct in your judgement.
However, you can’t make a broad statement about a group of people like you are omnipotent.
I don’t hear that “average” conservatives assume everything is going to be fine. I hear people donating, volunteering on elections, boycotting woke products, deciding which politicians are honest or duplicitous, figuring out how to keep their local elections on the up and up, etc.
Yes, people pray. Yes, they live their best lives. It doesn’t mean they are oblivious to the dangerous precipice our country is sliding toward.
depends on who you are and where you, plus your effort of involvement.
the inability to know how many are with you – is why a VOTE harder process has to be done.
by making the STEAL more obvious, you convert Vote harders into Voting isnt enough.
fair enough, though i think you are presuming as much about “average” as i am.
specific to the comment about talk radio and Ron DS support, by “average” i mean they are not digging so deep that they have become nearly as absolutist as many here (myself included at times) about their choice of votes or who they tune into and listen to. they’re still watching fox. they are going to vote republican, just about regardless of who the nominee is. and sure, they aren’t drinking bud light, either.
Muley, I would bet most here believe as you do. THEY JUST DON’T SAY THE SILENT PART OUT LOUD.
indeed. to the degree we are unwilling to say that part out loud, we simply express our ongoing consent and unwillingness to proudly exercise our 1st amendment rights.
“Silence like a cancer grows”… Simon and Garfunkel
“This is the guy who hawks his books about the Deep State, and to be truthfully honest, they are quite good. Yet, he continues to sing the praises of Ron DeSwampis.”
Anyone with direct revenue-generating channels of broadcast, cable, print, satellite or other “syndicated” media will necessarily be compromised via self-censorship. e.g. Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, SiriusXM, Spotify, iHeart. YouTube and Twitter present similar demands to compromise the truth.
Sundance stands among the few who manage to keep alive an independent beacon of truth.
I support and give thumbs up to your last sentence.
The first part of your post may explain why some censor themselves, but they are guilty of lies through omission. I do not think greed is an adequate reason to ruin our Republic, and feel those who “tread lightly” with telling the full ugly truth are just as guilty of attempting to tear down America.
Glenn Beck is a big fat phony, as is Levin, Hannity. et al. I live in Florida, I have not seen one DeSuckis sign yet.
The best talk radio program is Jeff Kuhner WRKO 6-10 AM out of Boston. He is MAGA, America First, as he says “Trump baby all the way.” He reminds me of Sundance.
He is a former history professor, takes on the moon bats, speaks truth to power, and he lets his worldwide listening audience have their say, never cuts anyone off. For that are trying to get him off the air.
My steady news feeds are from him and his awesome audience, Conservative Treehouse, Gab, and Gateway Pundit.
@Xavier- my only issue with Kuhner is he is too much of “the sky is always falling” no matter how mundane or innocuous the topic of the day.
I had to shut him off, because I couldn’t go to work every morning feeling that the world was immently ending.
His schtick does little to gain new conservatives but it fuels the leftists in MA into the anyone-but-conservative camp.
I miss the days of Gene Burns and Jerry Williams at WRKO back when they had substance based debates with callers.
My two cents.
Amen Xavier. I listen to him every morning. You are so right. Love Kuhner Man.
Glenn Beck did early great work on immigration, and I will always appreciate his producing the Revolutionary Holocaust.
His Libya The Real Story was also a must watch as he nailed early on what Benghazi was really about, looting the Libyan armories to ship the weapons to ISIS & Al-Qaeda terrorists that were/are murdering innocent people in Syria, some of them Christians that the Dr Assad secular government/military of Syria had long protected along with Syria’s various other minority groups.
The “rebels” Judge Napolitano is referring to are actually ISIS! Meanwhile, Assad went to medical school in France, is an eye surgeon and married an English girl. Assad wanted nothing to do with ruling Syria but was forced into the job when his father and older brother died. Assad has protected the large Christian community in Syria and has the total support of the Catholic Bishop there! He never used a chemical bomb on a daycare center. President Trump actually acknowledged that it was a mistake to attack Syrian soldiers.
That was another Pompeo Special. They lied to the CINC.
Well he obviously didn’t play ball with Obama and Clinton and Blair, just like Ghadafi. He had something they wanted so he must be destroyed.
Shia “Crescent” they wanted to break. Secular Syria has the second most Christians pockets of which still spoke Aramaic and took in many of the Armenian Christians fleeing from the Armenian Holocaust by the “Young Turks”. I’ve always respected the Armenians for hunting down many of the Young Turk leaders and assassinating them a few of them in Germany. I wish the Orthodox Christian Russians & Ukrainians had done that to the Bolsheviks/Soviet leaders
Beck’s the reason I know about Obama’s collusion with ISIS. I’ve always had a soft spot for him for that reason.
Should check out his “Revolutionary Holocaust” which caused him allot of grief because the CFR does not want you to know about the evils that the Soviet Union did which they are turning us into here
Getting hard to find, because it upends allot of the WWII propaganda. National SOCIALISM
PART 2 Glenn Beck’s, “The Revolutionary Holocaust: Live Free…or Die.”
I don’t have to remind myself. I have never deviated in my support for Trump. If anyone here needs a reminder — I have to question what planet you are from.
Retired Magistrate here: Peace and prosperity; that is what President Trump wants for America. The other candidates just want a continuation of the military/industrial complex so they can line their pockets further and sacrifice the next generation to their endless war machine where the only ones that win are those that support the military/industrial complex.
Enough is enough; Trump is the only candidate worth supporting and voting for.
Just now figuring out Glen Beck is a tool for the deep state? Sorry it took so long but welcome to free thought. Turn off his content; it is designed to confuse.
When he stuck his face that the bowl of cheetos, he lost me for ever.
Ditto.
That’s when he lost me too.
I’d watch him all the time but when he went nuts with the Cheeto’s that’s when I quit watching.
He lost me when him and his two radio clowns made fun of Mr Bundy for 2 hours after he (Bundy) called into the show. You can hear Beck in the background asking “does he claim to be a Christian”? This was during the first week of the standoff.
Thanks. I’m a recovering Democrat. I’ve only been here less than a year. Believe me it’s been an eye opening experience knowing a lot of what I thought was true was all a bag of lies.
I figured DeSantis and many elected Republicans are the same old establishment types. I’m just getting around to figuring out the conservative talk show hosts.
Wail ’til you find out Biden is not a moderate compassionate unifier 🙂
I have always thought Biden to be a nasty piece of work and an idiot to boot.
Yup, IMO, in order to satisfy his globalist paymasters, Glen Beck howled when President Trump used tariffs as a negotiation tool.
My apologies. I didn’t mean to flag that comment. I was just scrolling with my phone.
Beck is a saboteur.
Beck is loyal to the same club as Mitt Romney,, Jeff Flake, Harry Reid. The one that needs the sunlight of 25 suns.
Glenn Beck sunk his own ship. His face diving stunt into a bowl of Cheetos terminated any legitimacy he once held. The nonstop anti-Trump rants were manic and unhinged.
Beck created his own irrelevancy.
It is a shame because he is analytical and thoroughly researches issues. Regardless, he destroyed himself.
Remember when he was all in for Cruz……same situation……only now the teddy bears are missing.
What are we? “Conservative” is something I’ve called myself in the past and sometimes still do but I dont like it anymore. We see what the “conservatives” have done. Libertarian is something that I was in my youth. Republican? I’ve no place in that ass category. Now the only place I belong is as a MAGA Nationalist. I care about America only and not necessarily as in “United” either.I dont care about other countries- at all. Attend enough REFORGERS and you sure as hell dont care about Europeans much anymore!
I was a Buchanan Brigader. I always considered myself a “Populist”, which Buchanan/MAFA & PDJT /MAGA are
I also have a hard time putting myself in a box.

Did Elon buy Twitter or did Twitter buy Elon?
The intel agencies already owned Twitter, ( and Facebookz). . . . and. .. . . They did not buy Elon, they appointed him. Very interesting that his worth in mere weeks overcame the original expenditure.
Always consider: There was never any questions regarding the sale. The government did nothing like they always do when any major company is about to change hands.
Is there a list of all the legal and intel personnel who were there and are not now, if they are not?
Elon would be nothing without the government subsidies. Nothing.
I recall that there was somewhat of an ‘uproar’ from the enemy within about the sale of twit to EM, and the usual suspects were wailing about and gnashing their teeth as they usually do about ‘the end of democracy’ and all that blather (pure projection on their part too).
As part of the uni-party theater that we’ve come to expect TPTB in some manner said it ‘everything will be ok bubala’ giving EM’s ‘ownership’ of twit the ILLUSION of a platform for so-called “Free Speech”.
It’s all a fooking farce!

Not to venture too far off topic, but if you google the latest news regarding a spook named Ruben Efron, his connection to Oswald AND to a UFO ‘sighting’, and overlay it with some stuff on CIA secretly funding and promoting much of post war western culture….it becomes more evident that the UFO phenomenon and the entire sci fi genre was probably a CIA op.
I like to say….. “the best means to hide a conspiracy, is with a conspiracy theory”
Even the phrase “conspiracy theory” was cooked up by Dulles to hide his murder.
“The very word “secrecy” is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions. Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it is in my control.”
I had no clue that Joules Verne (1828-1905) was CIA (1947-present).
Even going back to the OSS (1941-1945) doesn’t take us back to the creation of the first American Science Fiction Magazine, Amazing Stories, (1926-present).
But the 50’s were a sci-fi heyday. So influence is still possible, but the genre was created long before the CIA was created.
Jules Verne was my first thought as well.
Amazing mind.
Also Julia Child.
What about Isaac Asimov, was he clean?
I like the Foundation series.
I can’t make a clean or not clean judgement. I just don’t know. People live a long time and have many influences.
Asimov’s first short story was published 1939.
Many of his robot and foundation stories were cobbled out of short stories published in the ’40s.
All pre CIA
But his first novel was published in 1950.
All CIA contemporary.
But that doesn’t mean he was CIA, or that the CIA influenced him or his publisher.
Or that CIA manipulations even occurred. But if they did occur, how much detail would be necessary? Would they control every author? Or would they guide from the shadows?
there is a correlation between high intelligence and creativity. There also seems to be a high correlation of those two traits and sociopathy. lone writers…lone artists…secret societies…strangers among people.
the intelligence agency seems to select for and attract those who appear to have little problems avoiding moral hazard judgements.
not saying all artists, writers and intelligence people are naturally inclined to do very bad things …but it does appear to be some overlap.
can you train and order someone to perform an immoral act?
yes, but only if they choose to do it.
to some, just a slight nudge is all it takes..to others…to the few, more likely to go full godzilla and burn it all to the ground. so the “rules” for employment and selection are certainly high on filters that look to people who have few moral walls…and perhaps even those who have already committed some heinous act and boasts of it in their resume. And so they also create “silo”…dark people are never allowed to co mingle with the administratives.
just my opinion
Yes, Obviously I did not mean science fiction as a topic for novels– i meant the genre as a whole, which truly began in the 50’s…For example, Kurt Vonnegut’s entire career seems to be a CIA creation…
Look to origins of CIA: Richard Helms in late 30’s Indiana socializing with Vonnegut family, Helms’ grandfather Gates McGarrah and the Dulles Brothers servicing the Third Reich, Ray Cline from Terre Haute Indiana– and Cline’s son-in-law Stefan Halper.
Using Halper as an intel op against Trump may have opened up a can of worms…
for example, re CIA promotion of culture, we know of their efforts to promote Pasternak’s Dr Zhivago to combat USSR influence as well as other anti communist materials over the years. We also know of their support of subtler influences– ie. of Partisan Review, of the Iowa Writer’s workshop. We also know that they employed agents like E Howard Hunt whose ‘sideline’ was writing crappy potboilers.
It’s probably time to examine the entire sci fi genre and specifically the careers of sci fi authors like Vonnegut, a conspicuous example, because of his being social friends with Helms from the late 30’s.
This Ruben Efron story (see the NY Times today) is just too wacky and on-point CIA. Everything UFO and sci fi related is ‘in question’ as one large Agency operation.
Holywood=Intell. The push for UFO’s is to keep the population away from the truth of what these crafts really are from and who/what is in them.
TECHNO FOG: Review: Chris Rufo’s American Cultural Revolution
How the Radical Left Conquered Everything
https://technofog.substack.com/p/review-chris-rufos-american-cultural
Rufo on the trans movement
I know Chris Rufo and he is the real deal – really interesting back story of being raised by two liberals in the Bay area (father’s family is first generation from Italian and many of them had/still have very Fascist leanings).
He tried to run for City Council in Seattle as a moderate but ended up withdrawing (and leaving the city completely) after his wife and kids were threatened and shunned. It was the beginning of a journey into conservatism for him and it has been fascinating to watch! He is now a fellow at The Discovery Institute and is doing his best to wake people up to what is really happening in our culture, and specifically, in our K-12 school system.
https://rufo.substack.com/
He’s done some great documentaries, as well as insightful writing.
It’s been interesting following his evolution, because his liberal roots are evident. He, however has stuck with the underpinnings of the ’60’s liberal movement…freedom of speech and thought, equality, anti-war, etc and not devolved into the current hate-filled intolerance of the current libs.
His work is well researched, factual, and apolitical.
Rufo was solely responsible for outting CRT at the Sandia National Lab.
Thanks, well worth a 12-minute watch.
Yesterday someone here linked to a looong Last American Vagabond piece looking at Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDC). It has been known for a long time that we all have heavy exposures to known hormone disruptors, but next to nothing has been done about limiting exposures, especially in children.
So a well-funded campaign to push transgenderism exists, and the question is which came first? Removing EDCs from products would have been expensive. So, the Food and Drug Administration pretends not to see, and then a negative is turned into another pharma cash cow. The problem is created and then bank is made on treating it, and then treating the treatment’s side effects, while causes are never addressed.
Thanks!…unfortunately, the truth is a moving target

Central Bank Digital Currency Is Not Yet A Fait Accompli
https://patrickwood.substack.com/p/central-bank-digital-currency-is
But lets examine some of the road blocks that the central banks are facing.
Citizen resistance – millions are onto the cashless paradigm of the central banks and are hoarding/using cash more frequently than ever. As this movement grows, resistance grows and the effort to overcome it grows for the banksters.
Lack of true universal ID – Without a definitive, universal ID for everyone on earth, CBDCs cannot easily track individual transactions and purchases. This underscores why every globalist sector is stampeding to implement a universal ID system. Bill Gates, the World Economic Forum and the United Nations are all in panic mode and you see the propaganda everywhere… and this is why.
“Brics” is continuing to grow and may save us all in the end. By tying each countries currency to its commodities, they will prevent oligharcs from controlling currency everywhere.
“Right on schedule.
Earlier this month in St. Petersburg, the BRICS — that is, the nations of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa — met to consider the application of nineteen more countries to their number, and in two months they will gather against, in Durban, South Africa, with an eye towards laying out an alternative to the U.S. dollar’s dominion over world trade. Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, Tunisia, and Zimbabwe, are among those applying to join BRICS. These countries are setting their face against western democracies and their death march into “climate change” degrowth and population reduction. They may save us yet.
That currency will be pegged to the natural resources possessed by each country. This critical shift will mean that financialization of each country’s resources will be unavailable to the world’s oligarchs, who today are acquiring land as fast as they can to set aside as carbon credits on the massive new taxes deemed necessary. The BRICS do not care about “climate change” or species extinction (which they know are based on a falsification of science), they care about growth and using their resources to give their people a better life. They do not want the World Economic Forum telling them what to do. When it comes to the Ukraine conflict, they are on Russia’s side.”

I have often wondered what happened each time a new Roman emperor wanted all coins to have his face. Did they exchange old for new? Was that exchange forced? How did that work when they devalued the new coins? Or when they solved that inflation by putting value in the new coins?
Hordes found usually have multiple emperors.
But imagine the change over conducted like Mash shows the change of scrip to be conducted during that war. Suddenly, the old scrip is useless. And the only way to keep value is to submit to exchanging for the new scrip.
There is no inherent value in our scrip. Just the faith in the government that has legally designated it as legal tender.
Revoke the legal tender, and nobody will take it any more. Those Roman coins had precious metal in them, so they had value no matter what the emperor said.
This CBDC stuff will necessitate revoking legal tender. Maybe that will happen gradually, with banks destroying the old cash as it cycles back to them. But eventually they must remove the ability to use cash if they intend to control us.
It will probably be presented as a convenience. All existing saved cash will be converted in your bank’s computer. ATMs will be shut down. And cash will stop circulating.
What will the role of a bank be once the conversion happens?
Warehouser of your hard earned digits. First line monitor to prevent your using your digits as you want. Leach off of your digit expenditures.
I wonder who will maintain your social credit score? But your bank will surely contribute your purchasing sins that it monitored.
Anybody remember the so-called “coin shortage” during the scam-demic?
Perhaps a test balloon?
I know someone who has canister after canister after canister after canister….of coins in every denomination. I pay with cash a lot.

Rattled? They should be down right scared. The bloom is off the rose. The GOPe is dead. We’ve been lied to for decades. No more. Bring the pitchforks!
We note that “Conservative populism” must ipso facto be labeled “radical.”
Another reason to detest and despise the MainStreamMedia!
The MarxMerdia sucks!

The Hill. Don’t click! Here:
“We should be concerned about this as Republicans. I’m having more ‘rational Republicans’ coming up to me and saying, ‘I just don’t know how long I can stay in this party,’” said Sen Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)…
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), an advisor to the Senate Republican leadership, said bread-and-butter conservative economic ideas still resonated with voters, but he acknowledged “the cable news shows” continue to keep attention on themes that Trump likes to emphasize, such as election fraud and the “deep-state” control of the federal government…
Asked about efforts to erase Trump’s impeachment record, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) quoted the popular show “Succession”: “Logan Roy made a good point. These are not serious people.” Romney, who was the GOP nominee for president in 2012 before Trump took over the party four years later, last year called Greene and Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) “morons”…
.
i guarantee that for every person that supposedly approaches them about their “concerns” about the “radicalism” of wanting a fair election destroying the party – there are TEN who approach them, and they decline not to mention, who think the party is destroyed because they won’t represent the people.
.
I suspect that no one is “approaching them”. This is spin on their fretting within existing circles, and internal crony conversations.

totally.
its like when a “reporter” claims that “some are suggesting that…” as a premise to a gotcha question – NO, just be honest, no one but YOU are suggesting that.

How Much Do Intellectuals Matter?
JUL 17, 2023

Everyone is up in arms with President Trump on his Maria interview yesterday
Apparently she asked him
How exactly he would get Russia amd ukrine to end the war in 24 hrs
He basically said if Russia didn’t agree, he’d load up Ukraine with more weapons than he’d ever seen
President Trump has to play to drumbeat of the Leftist news media to a point otherwise he hands them another Russian Collusion Hoax issue.
no he doesn’t.
To me, that was a negating threat. He wants to end the war and stop the killing. He is giving Putin the option to agree to stop the war or else. He did not say what Russia and Ukraine had to agree to. I think there had to be an “or else” part of the negotiation to get it done with both parties.
Actual President often stirs up things to effect a better outcome later. It’s the old “Don’t take him literally, take him seriously”.
The fact is, Russia is not at war with Ukraine. It is at war with the Obama/Soros Axis of Evil and their NAZI partners.
Once they fall, and they will, there is no more Endless War.
The only people “up in arms” are the ones who KNOW he would actually end the war in Ukraine 😉 If you have followed President Trump for any length of time, you would know how he operates.
How do you think he got Kim Jong Un to stop being a petty little tyrant long enough to consider he could be a good leader for his country if he developed some land. He threatened annihilation.
How about when he got Mexico to provide the troops to block the mass of illegals marching up through Mexico? He threatened extreme economic sanctions.
His methods work.
yes, OSC !
because our enemies know that PDJT keeps his word,
they have no intention of risking the alternative.
i don’t think PDJT makes hollow threats.
but i do believe he can leverage almost any situation to the optimal outcome
without “nuking” anybody.
and he knows that, too.
it’s a joy to watch him work.
Except……we don’t have them. What has always worked internationally no longer does. God has flummoxed all World leaders. They have no solutions. God himself has told us hiw to end this but I think He knows that no nation is going to “humble themselves” at this point. His will be done!
Matthew Whitaker is quoted in a TV interview on Newsman that the plea agreement entered into with Hunter Biden is a Rule 11(c)(1)(C) agreement.
That means the sentencing parameters in the agreement are binding on the Judge if the Court accepts the agreement.
AGAIN — this is practically a “unicorn” in DOJ.
In 21 years I managed to get ONE 11(c)(1)(C) agreement authorized.
If the judge loved this country, they would not accept the plea agreement, but it’s in the corrupted State of Delaware; so there’s that.
Chris Christie needs to go eat some more pizza and baloney sandwiches.
He’s already full of baloney.
This is why the nickname meant ball Ron was so genius. It inspired so many great memes. Worth watching this one.
LOL! Very well done… I almost shed a tear for the poor meatball… but I was laughing too much 😀
So homo Obama was attempting to push homosexual marriages in other countries more than likely with “Foreign Aid” bribes (a ripoff of the US taxpayers). Mugabe was a China/US/UK/UN backed terrorist whose purpose was to bankrupt and destroy Rhodesia so that it could become a China colony.

“After hearing Steve Bannon talk about this at TPUSA I had to go look to see what it was all about. Jumpin’ ju-ju bones, it’s crazy. Creepy Joe Biden really did try to nibble on a little girl at the airport in Helsinki. Even Yahoo News wrote an article about it. International media are laughing, but it really is quite disturbing at this point.”

No sir. Not “at this point”. It’s been disturbing for many, many years now.
Time and time and time again, this man has been witnessed to put his hands and face up to and against little children who clearly do not want or invite his attention. And time and time again, he gives no regard to these children’s reactions and continues his behavior.
If Joe Biden were a Republican…particularly Trump…the media and political left would be doing the EXACT opposite of what it has long done for Joe Biden.

Utah Mayor (and U.S. Senate Candidate) Trent Staggs Blasts Mitt Romney Over Debt Ceiling Deal
Staggs, a fiscal conservative who formally launched his Senate bid in May, blasted Romney for signing onto the debt ceiling deal. Following the deal’s Thursday night passage in the Senate, Staggs issued the following statement:
In no scenario is adding $4 trillion to our debt a “win.” This dumpster fire of a debt deal manages to push us closer to a near inevitable bankruptcy while offering virtually nothing of substance in return. When we in Utah sent Mitt Romney to Washington, we did so on his promise to rein in federal spending, and once again, he has done the opposite.

This substack article, “The Real History of the War in Ukraine” has a helpful timeline of events that led up to it:
https://thekennedybeacon.substack.com/p/the-real-history-of-the-war-in-ukraine
An old man was eating in a truck stop when three rough-looking bikers walked in.
As they passed the old man, the first biker pushed his cigarette into the old man’s pie, then laughed and took a seat at the counter.
The second biker picked up the old man’s milk and spit into it. The third biker turned over the old man’s plate before joining the others at the counter.
Without saying a word to the laughing bikers, the old man put his money down, got up, and left the diner. One of the bikers said to the waitress, “Not much of a man, was he?”
The waitress replied,” Not much of a truck driver either. He just backed his big rig over three motorcycles!”
Ah, quiet karma, but karma nevertheless.

Ford falls after slashing prices on electric F-150 to make them more affordable; GM also lower

Goodness me…idiotic.
We bring our 1995 GMC 2500 4×4 extra cab here.
It cost $5000(Can) 15 years ago…it’s still worth that and seldom a week goes by when a local doesn’t ask if it for sale.
We live in Greater Vancouver B.C. electric cars are commonplace, especially Teslas, over here I have seen 1 in the last 10 days.
We have a close relative that is a GM at a large auto dealership one of their E.V.s has a two year wait list on it.😟
Rural folks are WAY smarter?

I had a block heater on my car when we lived in Jackson Hole Wyoming in the 80’s. We got laughed at when we came to California people were like Do you have an electric car? hahaha. This was before EV’s were a thing.
I just learned that the Kerch bridge that connects Russia to Crimea was attacked earlier today by a water drone loaded with explosives. Ukraine is responsible.
A family traveling across the bridge was hit. The parents were killed, and their young daughter is injured. One news story reported that Kiev is laughing.
An act of terrorism, targeting civilians.
nothing like “fighting for freedom and democracy” like terror attacks on civilian infra, or cars with nazi Wehrmacht symbols on the door driving around kidnapping people for conscription.
we’re the good guys?
We need leaders, we need great thinkers that are great writers and orators. I recommend all should read Violet Bonham Carter’s book ‘Winston Churchill: As I knew him’. When he was to speak it was standing room only. We need a concise message reminding the people that we’re the sovereign, the power lies within the people and that when the built in systems of checks and balances fail us, then the sovereign must act, “We the People”. The Constitution and our Founders words are beautiful in their simplicity. The message is already written.

Tucker Carlson Is Reading the Bible: It’s ‘the Most Interesting Thing … I’ve Ever Done’
Excerpt:
“While they have free will, of course, they can make decisions, and they live with the consequences of those decisions – they’re not really in charge of the arc of history at all,” he said…..
….”But on the other hand, you’re not in charge. You are being acted upon by a world you can’t see. And that, by the way, is consistent with my life experience. Like, I’ve seen that, I’ve lived that. I’m 54. And so I feel like it’s really important to approach politics with that in mind – like, a lot of these issues are symbols of this much larger battle.”

What a pretzel twist by SkyNews. Sad
I really don’t trust sky news Au when
reporting on Russia-Ukraine.
Telegram channel was playing a clip from
Sky-News after the tank pile up in Ukraine
after the “counter-offensive “.
The “reporter “ had a picture of one
of the tanks burning 🤣 and was trying
to say it was fake or photoshopped. That
it really didn’t happen…🤨
Sad and really pathetic attempt at
propaganda by SkyNewsAu.
And then media wonders why
people don’t believe them…..
It just made them a laughingstock.
I found it curious and still do. I see no upside to such an action but plenty of downsides. This caught my interest because several news outlets (and I use that term loosely) are touting this fantasy, now on to more important things.

Not Dead Yet – Outspoken with Dr Naomi Wolf (substack.com)
“I am home at last from the second hospital — the “vortex hospital,” the hospital of near-no-return — and, per the title of this update, I am:
Not Dead Yet.
I can’t yet describe fully what I experienced at the Vortex Hospital — since I am not yet entirely out of medical danger, and I still need their staff’s help in the near future in order to remove a device, the details of which I will spare you. But suffice to say that my stay there involved the final three of what had been five days with no food or water, as I had lain, hooked up to an IV, with an acute abdominal infection, post-appendectomy. …
And then she “reassured me”: “If you don’t get seen after Day Seven we’ll just put you on a feeding tube.” This terrified me. Finally she said flatly: “your vitals are stable.”
After this exchange, I truly panicked. I knew that while my vitals might look fine, I could feel that I was losing the ability to keep fighting for my life. I felt the subsiding of my will to fight, as clearly as if I were watching water swirling around an emptying drain.
I was exhausted, and had stopped caring about outcomes. I just wanted the suffering to end, in whichever way it might. In conventional nursing, I am sure that that collapse of my will to live would have been visible to a caring observer, no matter what my “vitals” had to say. But the machinery of data-based management ground on.
When I could fight no longer, I thought weakly of my loved ones; and realized that even though I no longer cared if I survived or not, they would care if this was indeed the end of my life.
So I asked God to please save my life. I also told God that if He spared my life I would write all the things I was currently scared to write — I knew He knew exactly what those things were — and then I collapsed into a feverish dream.
I found myself coming to consciousness free of pain, and feeling light and small. For good reason: I was myself, but I was now a nine year old version of myself, and I was all spirit. It felt good and very simple — as if I was made of light and energy. I was on a beach, and my dad (who has passed away) was there with me. …
After all the questions had been answered, I asked, neutrally curious, if I was staying there. He gestured toward a broad silvery stream, like the runnels on an estuary, that cut off the wet sand on that strand of beach, from some other place; and indicated that no, I was now to cross back over that shimmering divide.
There wasn’t a leave-taking or anything else dramatic — I simply found myself again at length lying on my bed of pain, the infection raging still.
By this time Brian had done his wonderful Brian thing, of making things happen when they are not happening, by saying certain things, in a certain way, and leaving certain things unsaid. I don’t know how he does it, but I thank the US Army for its training of him in this arcane but useful art. For the second time in my life, he saved my life. After he made a call, the orders came from above, and I was rushed at last into the room where my lifesaving procedure took place.
I will skip over those details, again, for the future, for reasons mentioned above.
Then, after a night of recovery— after seven days without food or water — I was ordered a breakfast — half a pound of dehydrated egg “skillet”, a quarter pound of home fries, sausages the size of doorstops, a bowl of instant oatmeal — that contained 1010 calories and 65 grams of fat. I looked at it in aversion, and sipped some juice.
And then, I was free to go.
*****
I did not have any street clothes with me, but the minute the RN said I could leave, I asked for some scrubs, and just kept my hospital gown on; and we fled, before they could all change their minds.
The sunlight outside was dazzling. I wanted to kiss the earth, and every human being I saw. I loved the mulch. I loved the Hondas. I loved the security guard.
The red tiger lilies in front of the parking garage looked like to me like the most beautiful flowers I’d seen in my life — trumpets of rusty glory.
The instant I was seated on a concrete bench outside the hospital, breathing, I began to feel better — which made me realize that for two and a half weeks, medical staff, all of whom were of course vaccinated with mRNA injections, had been “shedding” on me continually, by leaning over me and breathing into my face while taking vitals, or by constantly handling me.
This situation had been bad enough in the small local hospital, where at least my window opened a crack. But at the massive Vortex Hospital to which I had been transferred, the windows — overlooking a spectacular vista — did not open at all.” …….
Energies, Cont. – Outspoken with Dr Naomi Wolf (substack.com)
I promised God, as you recall, in the hospital where I lay nearly dying, that, if I was allowed to live, I would write the things which I most feared to write.
So here we are: starting.
I sought my entire career to secure a reputation as a serious, academically-trained intellectual in the post-Enlightenment tradition. I did largely achieve that.
However, that came with a cost. …
So — like many people — I have taken care to censor rigidly the fact that all my life, I have also had experiences that were dramatic, and that made deep impressions upon me — but that went beyond what the physical universe could contain or explain. … Though I managed to censor my synesthesia, my awareness as a child that perception was fluid, and that currents of all kinds were continually flowing around us all — and that the physical world was illuminated and glowing and magical, but also that it contained dark and scary forces — could not be suppressed. …
When I was nine, I invited a little friend to see the “magical place” that I knew was hidden like a gem, in a corner of a sedate garden. It was a garden that dated to the beginning of the twentieth century; there were stone garden walls rising up to the magical place, and they were covered with moss; there was a little concrete bench set into the wall, at an angle outward into the street, crafted in that 1910 style. Parts of the ancient garden were overgrown — an elegant, elderly lady lived in the lovely old house and rarely emerged, but when she did, she was as beautiful as her forgotten garden.
This little grotto was — just magical.
If you stood on the bench and looked into the corner of the garden, which was raised up, you could see nasturtiums made of tongues like fire — with apricot and russet, lemon-yellow and radiant orange, petals; all of them were streaked with deep red at the hearts, and all bore tiny cups of honey.
You could see pale-blue bluebells too, bending their necks like dancers. The nasturtiums and the bluebells were like two companies of ballerinas, clothed in different costumes. There were shafts of sunlight somehow within that circle of nasturtiums and bluebells. And all of this treasure was contained somehow within another circle, one made up of dark green — of wet, tangled, protective grasses, that overshadowed and enclosed the secret place.
The magical place looked like a ballroom for fairy dances.
The glow of its magic was palpable to me.
My little friend asked her mom if she could go see it; and her mom — who as I recall was something really glamorous and cool and slightly intimidating, like a flight attendant — was excited, in spite of herself as an adult, to see this magical place of which I spoke.
So the mom drove her daughter over. And they got out of the car. And I showed the grotto to them.
And there was silence.
And more silence.
Neither of them had any idea what I was talking about.
After a beat, I could feel that my friend was confused, and that she was a bit sorry for me. There was nothing to see!
The mom turned away with a brisk motion. “Come on, let’s get home.” She was terse and annoyed. There was nothing there.
And to my amazement, I looked at the magical place and — there was indeed nothing there!
The magic had fled at the denial of perception.
What had happened? It was nothing now, it was utterly banal, it was just a tangle of grasses, a dim mess of foliage.
I was — again — horribly humiliated and embarrassed. No one saw what I saw! I was such a weirdo.
I was never invited over to play with that child again, and she never came over again to my house.
So yet again, I tried to put away my troublesome perception.
*****
I mention all of this because many experiences in my life as an adult, followed this theme — that the world is animated with energies, for good and evil, and embroidered all over with magic; and I sustained these experience but did not discuss them. I also learned that lots of people suppress similar experiences along these lines.” …….
Be well, child. We need your voice and your heart.
