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…

Maga Hat special at Chicago Subway locations.
Tonight Only!
Sunday temperatures topped out at one-degree-below-zero.
Currently (midnight-ish) it’s about negative-eight.
You know what that means?
Special Red Hat discount for the Juiciest subs in Chicago!
Get a sub get, beat up, the “famous” french actor special.
For old times’ sake! 😂 😂 😂
Dave can’t even keep a straight face. Priceless bit!
🤪😂😝
This is MAGA Country! – Jussie Epps
Storm the capitol! – Ray Smollett
Trump supporters do not talk, act, or dress like these federal actors do. The Federal Oligarch Central Casting Network needs to do their research. What a joke!
😂 Don’t forget the bleach and rope!
In downtown Chicago in the early morning with freezing temperatures.
I am surprised they weren’t riding quarter horses, wearing western hats and boots, while swinging a lasso.
Lol.
🙏🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲🙏
In Jesus name amen
Realize that it’s now just a holiday for the US postal workers.
Those are cartoon characters! That’s the best they could come up with? Without much effort I can think of a U.S. Supreme Court justice (Thomas) and one brilliant and compassionate pediatric neurosurgeon (Carson) who would better illustrate the “dream” MLK was talking about in his speech.
👏👏👏
Absolutely correct, but they have banished them as so called Uncle Toms. Most of us know the truth of these good men and look at them as the great people they are with no regard for their skin color. The left uses poc to further enslave all of us.
They speak of honoring “the dream”.
But in reality they dumped MLK and his dream long ago.
Instead they do the opposite. CRT. DEI. Judge by skin. Demonize by skin.
Message to everyone waiting out in the cold in Iowa. Sing it loud and proud as you wait in line. Sing it like these Cubanos. It will warm your heart.
Video will be posted below….
Here are the words:
“Oh my God, I will vote. I will vote for Donald Trump.”
You might be standing in line with a Democrat (lol), they are using Vivek’s strategy for Nikki Haley:
VOTE THE HOE TO SAVE JOE !!! (lol)
Dems Hatch “Republicans For A Day” Scheme To Boost Haley Vs. Trump In Iowa Caucuses
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/dems-hatch-republicans-day-scheme-boost-haley-vs-trump-iowa-caucuses
The Deep States seems to have no problem making a mockery of Democracy and are even counting on the people to do it to themselves. No interest in an honest election to ascertain what the people really want. Trick after trick. (sigh)
At the 1:06 mark of the video, you can hear them sing at a Trump Rally in Florida.
I remember them well, so many great moments in this journey.
That rally in Florida in a rainstorm is one of my favorite ever!
PDJT didn’t miss a beat or whine in the least, of course!
Iowa Hawkeyes..
It is your day to shine.
Vote for President Trump and give him a HUGE WIN as he kicks off the 2024 primary season.
Have a safe day in all that weather.
In my readings this morning, I ran across this which I had scribbled down some time ago.
From Edward Everett Hale
I am only one,
But still, I am one.
I cannot do everything,
But still I can do something;
And because I cannot do everything,
The something I ought to, I can do.
And, by the Grace of God, I will.
love this
As do I!!!
Just sent this to my son and one sister. Lovely way to start the day — thank you!
I hear and read many lamenting about churches and how they’ve become organs of the state, I agree with the “public” churches like Big Bethel AME church and the adulterous/cheater Fani in Atlanta is A-Okay . Her appearance has nothing to do with the forgiveness of our Lord Jesus, but a political agenda where God is nowhere to be seen.
I’m proud to say our church is growing and at capacity, with the majority of parishioners under 50 and a large percentage of young families 30’s down with two, three, four…babies under 10.
My point the flip side of the demonic church are wonderful churches that preach The Book and in my neck of the woods is growing exponentially, Praise God.
This to me is the direct result of their Great Reset is the Great Awakening and God is coming back. Who does Satan fear most, Jesus the Christ and His devout followers, just listen to the enemy, MSM, Education, Entertainment, etc. where Christians are a punch line.
Please Lord Jesus watch and protect us as we again face evil. Please Lord help us throw these demons back into darkness. (I like to include a prayer, because it’s vital but also to “stick it to the man” .)
Amen!
That is terrific news!
For those of us that have good reason to be apprehensive about any church, it may be good to know that we are friendly with many young families ( including our sons)
That are Christian ( some are not) that are living a good and God directed life and are for all that is good.
TCTH has directed me to the Bible, there is one by my bed.
A church building though.
I and several folks of my acquaintance have good reason to be uncomfortable around these buildings.
Great stuff for those that find comfort there.
MAGA. ( Canada too) 😎
Cheers, and God Bless President Trump.
My approach also is almost identical to yours.
My approach and outlook is yours.
Though it started about 24 years ago with a life changing event.
I have had a few of those “ life changing events” ( my career took me there.)
That said it is most pleasing to read posts such as those of StanH.)
Cheers!
Y0u don’t have to go to church to be a Christian. It’s between you and God. JMHO
True but also consider this:
“Forsake not the gathering of the believers”.
Maybe God wants to work through you to bless others.
Gods plan is clear about being part of a body of believers.
There are more than 55 “one another’s ” in the NT for a reason. Granted you don’t have to go to church to be a Christian as it is all about a relationship with Christ. However, the ‘sheep’ that is separated from the flock so to speak is vulnerable to the ‘wolves’.
But more importantly are the commands–to pray for one another, love one another, encourage one another, teach one another, confess our sins to one another etc. What joy there is in the community of believers!
I was the same way.
I still had that Counter Culture poison oozing through me, Carter cured me of my liberalism, however a lot of the slogans and beliefs carried on with me, you know, “little man in the sky” George Carlin “stick it to the man” “If it feels good do it” . I wouldn’t step into a church for a service, only weddings and funerals. I was wrong.
Without God’s grace it’s a dark, dark world and anyone who denies their spirituality, denies that spark of divinity and that person is only half alive. One of my elder brothers and Sister-in-law said “come and see” now I’m firmly at “follow Me” and Jesus lights my path.
The nihilist approach to life is how we get garbage like communism and university clowns driving policy.
No doubt, life abhors a vacuum so your worship goes to your nihilism, this is of the flesh and a loser in the long run.
Thank you!
We are believers, and have instilled values in our sons and now our grandsons that most would be pleased with.
However, much like schools ( we plan to assist more fully in the homeschooling of our grandsons.)
We do not trust institutions period.
That said. ( (IMO) It is good to have an open mind.
So when a thoughtful CTH poster suggests a reading out of the Bible, or a religious leaders podcast or the like.
I look it up.. last week it was two from Matthew and one from Daniel.
Great Stuff!
Cheers!
Right on! : )
Keep it up Dekester.
I too have lost almost all trust in institutions, even those that have benefited me enormously. Tough to avoid being cynical.
However, there are fabulous bodies of believers out there being shepherded by true and Godly teachers. Might have to hunt to find them, but God waded in alongside an earnest believer.
Even if you stumble into a viper’s den, providing sunlight might be your path. Trying to think of others who were disinfectants…
You are so right. There are still many Christian churches. We have to remember that God is still in charge of His world AND His church. “Churches” such as this AME in GA in not none of them. We can be appalled at their mockery of God, but they do not represent the church or Christianity.
Amen!
Pastor Anthony George (First Baptist Atlanta, GA) has been preaching about this:
https://www.youtube.com/live/n3vpLh_Fzck?si=FEdlYgjMtiIuHe1O
Recently the context of speaking and writing style arose, along with the lament that, in a nearly illiterate or aliterate* Age of Sound-Bites, Zingers, Memes, and Internet Telegrams, rhetorical style is non-existent.
The lack of a decent Educational system – outside of private or religious education, and even they have problems – does not help our society to know what great, effective rhetoric is like.
I have told people to read the speeches of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln for a start!
This reminded me that there used to be books on rhetoric with speeches for memorization, and dramatic oratory contests, in the 19th century and into the 20th, where modern kulcher killed them off.
One of the best ones was by the Reverend Elijah Kellogg of Bowdoin College: Spartacus to the Gladiators at Capua.
Written in 1843 for his students, it was later published by one of the judges at an oratorical contest, and was used into the 20th century.
The speech is designed to echo American Virtues through the enslaved gladiator leading his fellows in a fight for freedom. These Virtues (NOT “Values”!) have been under attack – of course! – for many decades by the Communists in America, and it is their fading away which is part of our current problems.
Here are some excerpts:
After telling of how, when he was a child, he led a quiet rural life in the Balkan Peninsula, Spartacus says his grandfather told him of the 300 Spartans :
“… I did not then know what war meant; but my cheeks burned. I knew not why; and I clasped the knees of that venerable man, till my mother, parting the hair from off my brow, kissed my throbbing temples, and bade me go to rest, and think no more of those old tales and savage wars.
That very night the Romans landed on our shore, and the clash of steel was heard within our quiet vale. I saw the breast that had nourished me trampled by the iron hoof of the war-horse; the bleeding body of my father flung amid the blazing rafters of our dwelling.
(Later enslaved and trained)…I killed a man in the arena, and when I broke his helmet clasps, behold! He was my friend! He knew me—smiled faintly—gasped—and died; the same sweet smile that I had marked upon his face when, in adventurous boyhood, we scaled some lofty cliff to pluck the first ripe grapes, and bear them home in childish triumph.
I told the praetor he was my friend, noble and brave, and I begged his body, that I might burn it upon the funeral-pile, and mourn over him. Aye, on my knees, amid the dust and blood of the arena, I begged that boon, while all the Roman maids and matrons, and those holy virgins they call vestal, and the rabble, shouted in mockery, deeming it rare sport, forsooth, to see Rome’s fiercest gladiator turn pale, and tremble like a very child, before that piece of bleeding clay.
But the praetor drew back as if I were pollution, and sternly said:
‘Let the carrion rot! There are no noble men but Romans!’
And my friend, deprived of funeral rites, must wander, a hapless ghost, beside the waters of that sluggish river, and look—and look—and look in vain to the bright Elysian Fields where dwell his ancestors and noble kindred.
And so must you, and so must I, die like dogs!
…If ye are brutes, then stand here like fat oxen waiting for the butcher’s knife; if ye are men, follow me!
Strike down yon Roman sentinel, and gain the mountain passes, and there do bloody work as did your sires at old Thermopylae! Is Sparta dead? Is the old Grecian spirit frozen in your veins, that you do crouch and cower like base-born slaves beneath your master’s lash?
O comrades! Warriors! Thracians! If we must fight, let us fight for ourselves; if we must slaughter, let us slaughter our oppressors; if we must die, let us die under the open sky, by the bright waters, in noble, honorable battle.”
One must not wonder for long what the sermons of Rev. Kellogg might have sounded like!
For the entire text:
https://www.artofmanliness.com/character/manly-lessons/manvotional-spartacus-to-the-gladiators/
So, is the text as good as Shakespeare? No, but the author strives mightily to imitate Shakespearean language and its rhythms and, in doing so, creates something worthy for its purpose and worthy of contemplation.
Today, it is the lack of striving for greatness which is the hallmark of our obese, wheezing, drug-bombed, and lackluster kulcher, which in fact laughs at the idea of “greatness,” and demeans the idea of “excellence” by claiming that everyone is excellent, because such things threaten and will destroy the Equality of Mediocrity which is their goal!
Thus is our battle-cry to “Make America GREAT Again” so infuriating and frightening to them!
* Aliterate – a term invented by Professor Sven Birkert in his book The Gutenberg Elegies to mean someone who can read on a basic level…but does not read or very rarely reads anything, and then nothing of worth.
Always love these thoughtful contributions, Ausonius, wonderful work you do!
Agreed.
Thought he was going to conclude “…upon Saint Crispin’s Day”
You are quite welcome, and again let me say that the entire readership here especially appreciates your reporting efforts on the rallies by President Trump!
Alliterate described most students I encounter these days. Locking down schools for a period of time set students back a year or more at the elementary level.
I teach middle school, but the effect of a loss of education for a year or more at the elementary level continues to impact students as they progress through school. It remains difficult for many to catch up.
Thanks for the reply: yes, I was still teaching in 2020/2021 during the idiocy!
If anything, it proved the absolute worthlessness of “online learning,” truly a moronic phrase!
You should have heard our Kindergarten teachers lamenting with massive frustration and near tears the ridiculous concept of “teaching Kindergarten through ZOOM Meetings!”
Watching their students on tiny screens do cartwheels, spin around, disappear, etc. etc. etc. only increased the insult!
Unless you have a very mature, very motivated, very diligent, and completely 100% honest student, teaching via ZOOM or other ideas will not lead to the same outcome as a regular classroom.
Yes, that group has lost 1 to 2 years of progress, and the more schools use “online learning” the less students will learn.
My wife is a 4th grade teacher and my kids were in HS during the lunacy. TN killed the zoom classroom fairly quickly and went back to school, but it was still disastrous for everyone.
Legacy of the whole thing, my kids are in college now, but the zoom teaching has convinced the universities that they can take in far more money with less (qualified) staff by doubling the audience via zoom. The awesome part is the we get to still pay full boat.
Dead serious, I can smoke my kids today in any online class they took and I’ve been removed from academia for 20 years. They’ve learned almost no economics, history or accounting in the multiple classes they e been forced to take online. My wife is utterly incensed.
Such universities have learned well from MAFIA Inc.!
Your kids would do better with a Great Books curriculum: Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Vico, Locke, Bastiat, Locke, et al.
Cheaper and no Communist agenda!
My kids don’t like that we foist the classics on them, until they’re finished.
We even slip in some Atlas Shrugged and 1984 discussion. We’re crazy subversives at my house.
I like President Trump ideas on college ….Free…….check it out at Truth Social.
I know teachers who plugged students into Google classroom assignments, turned Zoom off, and basically took an entire year off. Spoiler Alert! I am about to use some unprofessional language here. Since it is MLK Day I am not at school — so sue me.
The posts during COVID from that bitch teacher from another state (Chicago?) infuriated me. She took a vaycay to Hawaii and posted videos of herself in a bikini while swilling a maitai (or whatever) on the beach. This was not over Spring Break! She was on the clock.
Plenty of teachers taught from home– and actually interacted with their students. I chose to teach from school with my LFDs and all my materials. Either way, we were there for our kids
Anyway, the following is an illustration of the frustration of parents. I had parents with several kids scattered throughout the house in different ZOOM classes, on Chromebooks, juggling wifi connections, who were also attempting to work via ZOOM meetings. Some of them broke down into tears. It was overwhelming.
I was so nurturing to those parents! Of course kids (students) are my priority. However, the parents broke my heart. They were literally being torn apart trying to facilitate a learning environment for each child in a different room and still manage everything else.
Circling back to the teacher flopped on the beach during instructional time — what a slap in the face to those parents and their children!
I am retiring next year. If they pull another COVID, alligator anthrax, or zebra zits disease in order to shut us down — I will resign.
In my opinion, you are a real asset for your students AND CTH.
Amen!
“…the following is an illustration of the frustration of parents. I had parents with several kids scattered throughout the house in different ZOOM classes, on Chromebooks, juggling wifi connections, who were also attempting to work via ZOOM meetings. Some of them broke down into tears. It was overwhelming....”
Yes, the better parents who had students at our school often had the same experience: ZOOM breaking down, freezing, kids not co-operating, computers not co-operating, etc.
As I wrote, “online learning” is an impossibility. Online UNlearning is the correct term for the farce.
Yes, there are too many “teachers” who are disasters: no rigor, no competence, no anything.
One must ask why they entered the profession to begin with: “3 month vacation” is in fact what I had heard throughout my c. 50 years.
Best Wishes and I hope things improve…or at least do not deteriorate!
Good for you and that team. Most don’t care like that.
I tell my wife at least once a week to quit.
I will lamely weigh in.
My little tribe tried our Sunday evening cocktail and dinner parties on Zoom. Once we realized it was all Chinese hosted, we stopped.
We now have nightly phone calls.
And, we meet again…on Sunday evenings.
My grandson started Kindergarten in 2021. We flew out to be there on his first day. His mom took a couple pictures at home with his mask on, and then we asked that he get some taken without it. Not only did he have to wear a mask all day in school, but he also had to wear it during outside recess. The kids sat alone at small tables in class. (Can you imagine how this grandma feels hearing Fauci admit that the 6 ft rule just kinda happened, not really sure if it was effective?)
I suppose it was better than zoom classes, but not by much. They finally let up on the masks the last month or so of school.
I taught school for 35 years and the Kindergarten classes I saw were nothing like what my grandson experienced, to say the least. I think it did set him back some, although he is doing fine in school, with strengths and weaknesses in different areas.
However (taking into account the innate tendency of all grandmas to think their grandchildren are geniuses), his parents are both engineers and excelled in school from the earliest grades on through high school.
I can only imagine how damaging it was to the children in urban schools where I used to teach.
Funny story. One of the members on my humanities team was at school while remote teaching her students.
Her kindergarten son was at home with his father “attending” kindergarten. on Zoom.
(Dad is employed at a bank and could work remotely for a period of time.)
Anyway, my coworker received a call from her son’s kindergarten teacher (also my coworker’s sister). She asked if mom knew what activity her five year old was engaged in –because it certainly wasn’t participation in the lesson.
Mom called Dad and inquired about their five year old attending the Zoom in his room.
Dad opened son’s door. The kindergartener was hanging naked upside down from his top bunk bed. He had been jumping repeatedly off the bunk bed, singing, and naked as the day he was born.
Obviously, Zoom instruction isn’t the preferred way to teach. It has a few shortcomings. Classroom management is merely one (even if your teacher is your aunt).
Heh-heh! Allow me to apologize for such simian behavior on behalf of the male gender!
“Zoom instruction isn’t the preferred way to teach. It has a few shortcomings.” 🙂
Amen!
Thank you for the laugh!!!
In the adult ed night school where I taught credit English, I can confidently report that only a small percentage of the teaching staff spoke standard English.
…”…If ye are brutes, then stand here like fat oxen waiting for the butcher’s knife; if ye are men, follow me!

We certainly are approaching just this decision, seemingly very quickly, in our world right now. Who will we follow? Spartacus or will we sit like fat oxen and rot in the sun while our nation dies.
“…If ye are brutes, then stand here like fat oxen waiting for the butcher’s knife; if ye are men, follow me!

So appropriate for our times. Do we follow ‘Spartacus’ or do we sit like fat oxen and wait to be destroyed. Do we stand on our feet for America and freedom or do we kneel before the enemy waiting for our demise doing nothing.
Sorry I posted two by accident! My iPad has gone completely wonky on this site and I didn’t think anything posted! Ad rem you can delete one please.
I was having many issues on CTH and Rumble (for watching WarRoom) and now only view them via Brave browser. It made a world of difference.

This is where we are in America right now. Do we follow ‘Spartacus’ and fight for freedom under the open sky and for America or do we sit like ‘fat oxen’ and wait to be destroyed. The choice is upon us. Thank you for this beautifully written reminder.
Thank you for that. At this late stage I feel profoundly cheated by the public education I received.
I have a public library education. I am only barely literate due to to some natural curiosity.
There was an old commercial…”Reading is Fundamental”….find something to read, every day for an hour or two…Look for old history books…or whatever hits your fancy…the more you read, the more you will learn…!
Or novels….if something in the novel interests you…look it up…and keep a dictionary nearby too…Reading can be a conversation opener….like the old saying “…read any good books lately?”….
Keep using the library….make use of your tax dollars…! This would be the adult version of home schooling. Many of us got cheated.
We are always learning, all of us!!!
Well Said Aggiegirl!
I read every day as much as I can, Mostly Military Science Fiction, the stories are fiction but the science is all mostly up to date.
I was a little wary of reading Military Sci fi at first, now I can’t get enough of it. It was not what I imagined it to be.
It is mostly very likeable characters, excellent stories and lots Humor in them.
Also, no racism crap either, in Military Sci fi you don’t care what color skin the guy next to has, you care how many Bullets he has left! We are Brothers in Arms. We are all Human, that is it.
I use my websters dictionary all the time and I highlight in yellow and date the words I have looked up.
Why anyone would want to waste their life away watching Stupid TV? I don’t know?
Try any Great Books program!
One of my favorites is Albert Jay Nock, who was born in 1870 and wrote many essays on politics and society and Life in general.
Read one of his most famous essays, Isaiah’s Job, from the middle of the Depression: Nock had not been happy for decades with the direction America was taking, and recognized The Uniparty during the Cleveland Administration.
https://mises.org/library/isaiahs-job
In the essay, he introduces the concept of The Remnant, the people of sense and culture, the people of virtue and courage, the people of ability and erudition, the people upon whom society will depend, as it attempts to arise from a collapse due to its sloth, stupidity, corruption, and pusillanimity.
Most associated with Good Will Hinting were liberal douchebags, but Will’s point in smoking the Harvard grad student with lame regurgitations from $5 worth of late fees at the public library was worth admission.
Guarantee that moron Matt Damon wouldn’t repeat that line today, as it couldn’t be more true of our Ivy League masters: can’t think a lick but can repeat library book and professorial idiocy.
You don’t sound illiterate but keep reading. The internet opens a world of information. But so does reading for entertainment.
I didn’t necessarily mean literate in the I can’t read sense. I meant it in the sense 12 years of public education taught me nothing. I was not trained in the in the civilizational classics advanced math or foreign language. I had to scramble as an adult to make up for lost time. Things that should have been fundamental to an education in a free, prosperous and affluent country, were lacking. The Government education I received was shallow, superficial it prepared me for little more than wage slavery.
I thank everyone for their sincere concern.
Hello again!
I understand your bitterness! I did not often teach in public schools, but when I did, 40-50 years ago, yes, even back then they seemed full of “teachers” going through the motions and not really doing much of anything.
In one I taught down the hall from a “History teacher” who spent the entire year preaching about the dangers of “A-dolf Hitler,” right before he turned on the projector for another movie. He was also the corrupt mayor of a nearby village!
In another – a very wealthy suburban high school with over 2,000 students – I taught German next door to a Spanish teacher, head of the Foreign Language Department. In her classroom you rarely heard Spanish spoken at all.
She stood at her desk at the beginning of her “classes” for about ten minutes, passed out a worksheet, and there was silence for the next half hour or so.
When students began dropping my German course because I expected homework to be done and expected them to learn the language, rather than German recipes or hear warnings about A-dolf Hitler, she came to me and said: “You have to stop giving homework and expecting them to memorize anything. Otherwise we won’t need a German teacher.”
I left after one year anyway for a Catholic, all-boy high school, where students were not allowed to drop classes and every teacher expected homework to be done, along with memorization, i.e. we expected LEARNING to happen because of our courses!
Throughout my years I heard too many stories like yours of years spent in public education doing nothing!
Best Wishes!
Teachers unions have been a huge boon to education.
Oddly enough, several years of my education were in DOD schools overseas, and (in my opinion) were the best education I received. I think it largely had to do with the fact that it was in another country. We could go on family vacations whenever our service-member parent could take leave and not be counted absent. We just took our work with us and turned it in when we got back, along with a short report on what we did on vacation. We often had local students attending our school, and 1 week a year, we could attend their schools for lessons about our host country.
After coming back to the states, it was easier to keep friends as we weren’t moving anymore, but the education itself lacked a LOT. That was in the late 70’s/early 80’s.
Everything seemed to go downhill in an out-of-control careen when my kids were in school. My daughter ended up completing high school at home, while my son homeschooled from 4th grade on. Both, in my opinion, are much smarter than they would have been had they stayed in public schools.
Let me simply say this about Larry Hogan supporting Haley. Please take all the shots you want,but know this. I live in the state of Maryland and despised Hogan with all my being. But, the new democrat clown governor Wes Moore, is now shutting down the last coal fired plant in the state. The energy commissions have told them the electric grid is not sustainable if it happens. They did it anyway.
My point, Hogan never did that. As we speak here about RINO’s and not voting for them etc., etc……….This is what you get when you vote for a democrat. What do you do because I certainly voted for Hogan and not for Moore.
I for one, will no longer accept driving off the cliff slowly (GOPe) vs quickly (D).
Lovely post!
Here in British Columbia, Canada.
We too “ are driving off a cliff “
IMO it has to come to that..our politicians are truly mental.
We have prepared well as a family and as a group of like minded individuals.
The sheep are literally freezing, expensive food.( cold weather etc.)
For example, we have wood
fireplaces in all the family homes.
The majority of folks here bought the B.S. and converted there places to Gas fireplaces and expensive heat pumps.
We have a natural gas furnaces in our families places, but we’re mocked years ago when we kept “ the messy and dirty wood fireplaces.
As an emergency or a less expensive back up. ( we source free firewood)
Cheers!
Benefit of free firewood is you don’t really need the heat, after you split some wood.
So many struggle to truly accept and so adjustvtheir thinking to the Uniparty concept.
Its unfortunately only by having the populace experience the consequences of the disasterous Uniparty Globullusts policies, SUCH AS shuttining down the last coal fired plant, that enough people will wake up and demand a STOP.
WE would not have PDJT, if not for Obama. Even tho we WOULD have gotten Obamacare by another name, if we had a President McStain or Romney.
Insanity to keep voting for the lesser if two weavils, insisting that your not still voting for evil.
Hogan was not on the ballot. Moore won likely because Hogan supporters could not support Cox.
I know that. I voted for Hogan before and Cox against Moore.
Todd W, I live in Maryland also. Lock down Larry did everything he could to ensure Wes Moore was elected because Dan Cox beat his pick for the Republican candidate for governor. Dan Cox was pro Trump and Lock down Larry was willing to sacrifice the state to satisfy his hate for Donald Trump.
Piss on Hogan!
and yet, the republic still failed.
there is a viable and compelling case to be made that only destruction and pain will wake people TF up to what they support.
i WILL NOT vote the lesser of two evils. we must CONFRONT evil.
I was raised in MD. Thankfully, the U.S. Army saw to it that I left. MD is trying to “out-California” California, and it’s doing a magnificent job!
Sadly true.
Another Marylander.
Some people, whose other ideas I respect, will talk about punishing Rinos by letting Democrats win office. This never made sense, to me. Rinos are bad, but Dems are worse.
I see a lot of ambivalence.
We Treepers hate Hate HATE RINOs but talk about how much President Trump will be able to get done in his next term.
No, he won’t get much of anything done if he doesn’t have a majority, and in both sides of Congress.
Does anyone seriously believe we’re going to get an all America First majority in the House and the Senate? Which would require an almost total turnover, including seats not up for re-election now anyway.
Yes, I know we can’t count on the votes of the never Trumpers, but we have a better chance of getting them from RINOS than we do from public leftists.
Oh ye of little faith. The Republicant leadership did far more to impede the progress of PDJT in pursueing his/our A1st agenda than the Dems during his first term.
And, it seems like few even remember the long “promises MADE, peomises KEPT” list of his accomplishments made despite a Uniparty Congress doing everything it could to impede him.
People are continueing to think in terms of the past, to project going forward.
What we will see in the second PDJT administration will be like nothing we have seen in our 250 year history.
PDJT has layed out, in GENERAL terms his line of attack.
Articles in Axios and Politico have, despite distortions from point of view, and based on I/C ‘leaks’ layed out many of the key details.
The recent NBC article is laying out the enemies plans to counter.
This is WAR, and never have we seen a new President entering D.C. intent upon deconstructing the Swamp like this.
Obviously, overcoming a CONgress intent on thwarting his efforts will be key, but expecting any RINO to work to forward PDJT’s agenda us beyond naive, its suicidally stupid.
Me either …..like cutting off nose to spite……..Does anyone believe Trump can get anything done without the republicans holding a strong majority in both houses. Whats the point in even voting Trump if you think like this. Selfish comes to mind and short sighted. Totally absent of “common sense”. Which all of Trumps policies are based on.
No, it is not about “punishing RINOS” its about understanding how political power works.
RINOS are only going to amputate 1″ of your d*ck, whereas Dems are goung to cut off the whole thing.
So, you prefer to vote for the RINOS,…..right?
Now, go ahead and try to make sense and defend that position.
Especially since next year, the RINOS will cut off another inch,…
Ouch!
Exactly. I’m out.

He neglects to speak of the freedoms lost and high taxes gained, in his home state.
Just a friendly Treeper reminder as this boy makes himself known today in Iowa….with his delicately worded speeches…
Remember…he want to change his address to Pennsylvania Avenue….1600 to be precise.

I think there was a pretty good lot of folk at CTH who knew.
Any politician hiding behind his Vhritianity on social issues is almost guaranteed a piece of crap on anything substantive.
Leave the social idiocy to Ocasio and adult things to adults. Johnson, do something for the longevity or our representative republic just one time.
Sorry, meant hiding behind Christianity.
In actuality, they probably were hiding behind their “vhristianity.”
I well know that! And something about my ‘cold dead hands’….An AR weighs more than I do, I have trouble with the slide on a Glock…I like my Witness….can hit the narrow beam of a barn from a ways off….
Am in a collar county and we are seeing far more gang grafitti than every before…more murders…but hey, we have the SAF-T ACT/s
you go girl!
One is never free when their own country will not let them audit the vote.
#TrustButVerify
No verify. NO TRUST.
Eleventy billion percent.
speaking of taking freedoms away, the state of IL (with the tacit permission of SCOTUS) enacted a draconian set of laws that will not allow them to own many firearms. not just buy, but OWN – making millions of felons overnight.
the registration rate was around 1%. in other words, GFY, fascist.
keep stockpiling for those who are ACTUALLY taking your freedom away.
Laura Loomer had Mike Johnson pegged from the beginning:
https://rumble.com/v4729ac-mtg-if-speaker-johnson-strikes-an-amnesty-deal-with-democrats-i-will-move-t.html
It seems the only Republicans with any stones in the House are women!!!
And every American will have her back on this.
Let’s see her do it.
I agree!!! Hopefully Speaker Johnson isn’t that stupid, that big a Uniparty member? We’ll see!
Stupid & Uniparty member – Johnson?
CRs, funding for Ukraine & Israel but nothing on the border, 702 surveillance continuation on NDAA, working with Dems on more spending, a few J6 tapes with blurred out faces , etc.
And you need more proof?
Stupid– no.
Crooked & purchased — yes.
So much for his professing to be a Christian.
He is unabashedly participating in the destruction of America.
I don’t know how this CR proposal stacks up compared to what Russ Vought was pushing last week. Perhaps Johnson was listening.
https://nitter.net/russvought/status/1745190650234995104#m
No, Johnson is not listening. That’s the problem.
That every Republican House member voted for him was a tell.
Yep…
i don’t particularly care what the excuse is, but have seen a few people point out that he is very averse to conflict. that idiotic logo with glasses is a surefire indication he would rather be working in a backoffice somewhere with calculators instead of in the gutters with knives and brass knuckles.
there is a use for people like him, but it is NOT as the speaker.
GET RID OF HIM
He is a carbon copy of my rep Jerry Carl of Alabama. Voting for his competitor Barry Moore who has an excellent voting record. Voted against NDAA…..will vote for government shutdown. Will have a battle against those “church goers” in our district who are not on top of the issues.
Gulfaddict any words of wisdom on life in MObile Alabama?
First with “9 days to elect a Speaker” they installed Kevin with a bunch of empty promises he promptly renegged on as he did not use “the power of the purse” to rein in the abhorent conduct of this conmunist admin, regarding the border, Ukraine, energy etc.
And, when it became obvious to all that the promises/assurances that Gaetz/Bannon made, that WE would control McCarthy were exposed as empty, they rolled out the second act of their play, easing Kevin off stage and to retirement, taking with him enough R’S to flip the Majority back to D’s for the optics of having D’s once again Impeach PDJT starting on day one of his second term, which RINOS fully support but can’t be SEEN as supporting,…and meanwhile Johnson continues to supervise pissing away the POWER of the Speakership.
Exactly!!! Only difference next time the Senate with McConnell leading the DeceptiCons will vote to remove President Trump from office no doubt about that!!! JMO
Looking ahead to possible running mate selections, let’s hope Trump doesn’t fall for ‘the huckster’. Treepers will not like this redpill about their media darling Sarah Sanders, but truth is there for all to see.
https://aim4truth.org/2024/01/12/sarah-the-huckster-sanders-fools-trump-and-supporters/
I was unaware of this connection. However, I have not trusted the Huckabees for awhile. This proves the validity of the old adage, Follow the money.”
Hat tip to Betsy!
Treepers: this is one of the most revelatory article I have read in a long time and it is about way, way more than Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
It is well worth the read and connects a lot of dots that are discussed here regularly.
He’s not going to promote someone from Press Secretary to VP. There is a reason he moved on from Sarah. She doesn’t need him to take the White House if she really wants it. BE MAGA. Prove it in your governorship and American will see you shine.
Wow! “and yes, perhaps even Donald J. Trump, Jr.) are evangelical Christian controlled opposition.”
We’d better get the word to President Trump so he will know!!!
deleted by me.
Take some of that with a grain of salt. Very limited support. The Walmart piece is almost certainly wrong.
There is plenty there that makes total sense, but there is a decent amount of sensationalism there.
Her father sure knows how to graft.
As an average reader, I have no way of validating these projections, insinuations and smears. After all, who are the authors? What is the article suggesting we do? Who do we now support? Is it that we are now to turn against Israel and the Jews? Where have we seen this before?
Sorry, I can’t high five this one. Very suspicious.
beyond suspicious, it is a known conspiracy site that prints nonsense.
I would agree that there are many allegations without much to support them.
Focusing on Sarah and ignoring the linked article.
The Power of a State Governor is formidable, IF they choose to excercise it.
To have just ONE truly MAGA Governor, would reshape our nation in ways we can barely imagine.
KL would have been such a Governor. Sarah,…..isn’t.
ALL you need to do is look at her PERFORMANCE since becoming Governor, to know she is NOT MAGA.
She and her dad are career political grifters.
IMO, that article is nonsense. Saying she has a net worth of 50 million dollars can be objectively found to be false in any number of searches, and the remaining information isn’t worth the time to debunk. This is a known conspiracy site.
Net worth 1.5M Other sites agree 1.5

Matt Kim, whose excellent journalistic video a Treeper posted yesterday on the Vivek thread, was just kicked out of a Desantis event in Iowa, and then not even allowed to eat at a restaurant next door.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/01/disabled-man-wheelchair-conservative-podcaster-unexpectedly-kicked-desantis/
Saw that. It was outrageous.
I wished he would have risked arrest by going to the diner though.
And then blasted that all over the net.
Exactly what one can expect from a small man.
A tiny tyrant.
Team Trump steps up… again.

Here’s President Trump going to school with his granddaughter. It’s such a small subtle thing but notice how he reads the situation. As she walks in, she gets nervous. He notices and gives a little wiggle of her hand to help her through her nervousness. He then gives her a kiss to comfort her.
Maybe it’s a good message to We the People. We may be nervous, but with a guiding hand, we’ll get through it.
Aw!!! Sweet. Its who he is.
The State of new California moves forward.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/01/state-new-california-is-taking-another-giant-step/
The Texas Supreme Court won’t allow an effort to secede to be on the ballot in 2024 . My guess is the California Supreme Court will do the same and stop any effort to separate from LA and San Fran! There will be no 51st state called “New California”! JMO
If enough people make enough noise they can beat their state govt. The courage to actively try says more about this effort than any outcome. 6 years worth of effort so far.
the courts are illegitimate.
proceed anyway.
We know this because of the effort to send Hair Gel packing……so rigged.
Good for them! Keep trying and doing it correctly.
In light of the multiple write-ups here regarding Jack’s magic coffee shop, I saw this article (written 12/2023) regarding Signal (encrypted messaging application launched in 2013 ):
Signal Facing Collapse After CIA Cuts Funding (substack.com)
Operating costs were around $40 million in 2023 and expected to hit $50 million next year.
On November 16th, Meredith Whittaker, President of Signal, published a detailed breakdown of the popular encrypted messaging app’s running costs for the very first time. The unprecedented disclosure’s motivation was simple – the platform is rapidly running out of money, and in dire need of donations to stay afloat. Unmentioned by Whittaker, this budget shortfall results in large part from the US intelligence community, which lavishly financed Signal’s creation and maintenance over several years, severing its support for the app.
Why would the IC be supporting an encrypted private service in the first place?
Backdoor access.
Easy access to “customer data”. Spy opportunities galore.
The problem is they have been outed for all of their dastardly deeds.
Encrypted for whom?
You assume the IC does not have the capability to read the encrypted messages.
What better method can you think of but a platform where people think their messages are “private”.
This is a short video clip that was recovered from the covid engineered-crisis nightmare
Do not play it if you are still in shock
And all three of you can go straight to he!!.
They left out “The latest step to depopulation.”
Evil jerks.
I know tons of @VivekGRamaswamy
supporters. I know tons of Trump supporters. I even know a couple DeSantis supporters.
I have not met a single @NikkiHaley
supporter.
Not one.
She doesn’t hob nob with the donor class that’s why. Plenty of War Pigs support Haley.
nor Biden supporters.
and yet, here we are.
Why are young men who joined the army at the very beginning of the conflict “mostly gone”?
The average age of soldiers in the Ukrainian army is over 40 years old, Aleksey Tarasenko, commander of Kiev’s 5th Assault Brigade, has claimed, adding that the military is in dire need of younger recruits.
“Even those who do come often leave much to be desired. Mostly, these are men of a much older age with a multitude of problems that typically arise.”
The military desperately needs “young men” because those who joined the army at the very beginning of the conflict are mostly “gone,” he said.
The governor of Nikolaev Region, Valery Kim, warned at the time that conscripting half a million people “is not enough” and Ukraine needs to enlist at least 2 million😳.
Ukraine does not reveal its casualty numbers. According to Russia’s estimates, around 400,000 Ukrainian troops have been killed or wounded during the conflict, including 125,000 over the course of Kiev’s failed counteroffensive between early June and late November.
How about Ukes surrendering to Russia?
The Ukrainians have admitted to 500 k dead/seriously injured(disabled).
They are currently trying to mobilize 700 k people into their armed forces.
Their losses have been very bd and they continue to lose approx.500-1000 men /day across a 200 km front line in the Donbass and Zaporhizia.
They should sue for peace.
I posted a link to a Matt Kim podcast yesterday for Treeper budalysis. Some of you were hadn’t heard of Matt before and were asking for more info.
Well, DeSantis refused Matt (and a guy in a wheelchair) entry into an event last night.
The Trump Campaign heard about it and this is what happened:
What’s the news from Germany today?
How about them plow boys?
Seriously, not a peep from anywhere. It hit the wind
Am sure the news is out there, personally I haven’t looked today….The irony of it all….the ‘carbon footprint’…yet I do feel for them and no doubt they are using fuel funds meant for the planting and harvesting….?
Just discussed this over dinner last night. WTH?
It’s a whiteout.
their protests were officially scheduled to end after a week… not a good plan, IMO (you stay until the fascists relent), but if they stood by it, they would have dispersed by now.
“Thousands of farmers, truckers, tradesmen, and other hardworking German citizens have descended on the capital of Berlin to paralyze the city, with many vowing not to leave until the Left-Green government steps down, that has run Europe’s biggest economy into the ground.”

Had to go to YT to see a few clips. Most of the journos I watched were critical of the protests.
Chris Christie had the unimaginable courage to take the identical position as the establishment in both parties, the CIA, FBI, Justice department, all of Academia, the corporate media, and Hollywood.
Note that posting this does not make me a Vivek supporter:
My guess is that Vivek will far exceed the polls when the votes are counted
my guess is that we will be surprised by how much the RNC has learned from the DNC on how to rig primaries.
The RNC has been rigging primaries since its inception when the WHIGS let the “New Republicans” step out on stage, while the WHIGS stayed backstage managing the party machine, fundraising and dispencing $, and primaries and State party conventions…all of the boring organising and building of hierarchies that most of us have no interest in, and leftists thrive on.
Recall it took Reagan 3 times to get the nomination.
If you can’t get a hold of him, Gov Kemp is in Davos this week hanging out with Klaus and the gang
Obviously, governors have a deep need for international travel and politicking, especially governors of non-border states. I mean what kind of MAGA maniac would think a governor should be at home solving problems rather than kissing rings at Davos?
It has been obvious IMO that Kemp has an outsize importance to the Globalists, Why is he have so much power and who is financing him I wonder. I mean he seems to have been instrumental in many national decisions .
its amazing to me that we have so much detail on who, when, and WHERE all the people are who are working to destroy western civilization. and how little it would take to fix that problem.
In retrospect, many find it amazing how the top Generals in Hitlers NAZI party, Himmler, Goering etc. traveled openly in occupied Paris, as well as Berlin.
It has been said that these Globalist are not too bright….and really don’t understand the devastating effects of their “plans”. They will be go down as well.
I wonder how many would attend Davos if they eliminated the prostitutes and the drugs that flow there?
Heel Turn: Bill Ackman donates $1 million to presidential campaign of pro-DEI Biden challenger and WEF disciple
A committed supporter of the World Economic Forum agenda, Dean Phillips recently launched the Stakeholder Capitalism Caucus in Congress, before attending Davos.
JORDAN SCHACHTEL
Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman has spent recent weeks waging a heroic public campaign to overturn the Diversity, Equity, and inclusion (DEI) agenda in academia.
But after dedicating his energies to fighting the DEI monster, Ackman has thrown his political and monetary weight behind a man named Dean Phillips, a virtually unheard of Democratic Party primary challenger to President Biden.
Ackman announced the news on X.com/Twitter Sunday, adding that he has wired $1 million to the political action committee supporting his run.
So who is Dean Phillips (DFL-MN)?
The heir to his family’s business dynasty, he’s been in Congress for a few terms, but retired in November to challenge Biden.
In short, he’s the personification of the modern Democratic Party.
https://www.dossier.today/p/heel-turn-bill-ackman-donates-1-million?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
Wouldn’t it be expected that Phillips would support the DEI agenda which Ackman supposedly strongly opposes? So why is Ackman doing this?
I’m wondering if he is anti-Biden (and why not?) but still supports the Democrat agenda, why not just throw his support to RFK Jr?
The only differences with RFK and the Democrats have to do with Big Pharma and the Deep State.
most of the portfolio of Phillips liquor is ROT GUT

I live in a non-Caucus district/state. When will we know the results of today’s events in Iowa??
Iowa Polls close at 8pm CST.
Getting the results will probably depend on how many times they have to run the Haley votes thru the tabulator…….
https://www.axios.com/2024/01/14/democrats-boost-haley-iowa-trump-desantis
Same bs they tried in NH before the AG slapped the DNC in the face.

Wonder if we will get any data on late registration changes from D to R?
If that stat is even recorded?
You don’t say. These people can’t do anything with honor and morals.
Nikki is Hillary light, but with slightly darker skin.
Nikki is Karmala on the R wing, just as stupid, too.
Nimrata is a the biggest Trojan horse.
She should be anywhere near high office, and she needs to be primaried out of the party.
America’s 100 largest landowners revealed
The Emmerson family, which owns lumber producer Sierra Pacific Industries, has been listed as America’s largest landowner this year, according to an annual ranking compiled by the Land Report, a US-based magazine focused on private land ownership in the US.
According to the report, the Emmersons own a little over 2.4 million acres (about 1 million hectares) of land in the states of California, Oregon and Washington through their business. Founded in 1947 by Curly Emmerson, Sierra Pacific is run today by Archie ‘Red’ Emmerson and his sons. The family has been atop the list since 2021, when it acquired 175,000 acres in Oregon from the Seneca Timber Company.
The second-largest landowner is media mogul John Malone, who has 2.2 million acres across Wyoming, New Mexico, Florida and Colorado. Malone owns Liberty Media Corporation, the assets of which include the Formula 1 racing championship.
Rounding out the top three is CNN founder Ted Turner, who owns about 2 million acres.
Real estate and sports tycoon Stan Kroenke, the owner of a number of sizable ranches, is the fourth largest landowner with 1.7 million acres. The Reed family, owners of the forestry company Simpson Investment, took fifth place in the ranking with 1.66 million acres.
READ MORE: Bloomberg reveals 2023 world’s richest families list
The ranking featured four other landowners with more than 1 million acres in their possession, including the Irving family from Canada (1.27 million acres), whose corporation has businesses in logging, shipbuilding and retail; the Buck clan (1.24 million acres), founders of the fast-food chain Subway; the Singleton family (1.1 million acres), owners of cattle and horse ranches, and Brad Kelly (1 million acres), founder of the tobacco company Commonwealth Brands.
https://landreport.com/land-report-100#top100
So Bill Gates is not one of the top land owners?
Answered my own question by searching on the report: Gates ranks #42 with 275,000 acres.
Not yet.
They list him as the top ‘farmland’ holder but he’s only about 50th as I recall in total area.
The Emmerson family sounds great. Granted their video, but seem much better than the Ted Turners and probably John Malones of the world.
When all states, territories, and outlying islands are included, the entire United States land area is 2,260,419,200 acres. When you include all bodies of water in the United States, the country’s area is 2,429,914,880 acres.
The federal government owns 28% or, 640 million acres of this.
41% of the land is used for feeding livestock…… Why do they want us to stop eating meat…..?
They look like great places to set up temp illegal invader deportation centers.
Maybe they would consider setting up housing for military veterans in need./s
There is a side by side video of Barack and Vivek where Vivek is saying the exact words Barack did.
He is literally a mimic of Obama. It is eerie and damning. Wish I was able to post .
It clearly shows Vivek for who he is.

Gaetz says we will have a historic win in Iowa tonight!
My congressman, Bob Good, emails that he will vote to shut down the government if the border is not closed. I emailed him that he should keep up the good work and also shut it down if the deficit is no slashed.
Would I hope that my VA congressman, The-RINO-Known-As-Wittman, do same. Nope. The guy is a whimp!
The sad fact is likely 98% of our R representatives would not support defunding the government to establish border security.
It makes me thankful to be that clear on how out of whack our “representatives” are and the road we face.
You don’t have to vote to shut down the government. You just don’t vote to take on debt. Then the government will shut down
. The border does not need to be closed, one need only stop lavishly funding the invasion. See paragraph 1.
Can’t tell you how many times I emailed Jerry Carl and asked how he could vote on a budget that feeds the invasion through NGO’s…..feeds the corrupt IC…..the man is an idiot.
Perzactly.
LOOK at what the HOUSE has actually accomplished, (not inconsequebtial appearances) and compare it to what its performance would look like if DEMS were in the Majority.
NO DIFFERENCE.
If Bob Good voted FOR Speaker Johnson, than he is just showboating.

Presidential privilege: Biden’s re-election campaign has begun organizing a series of off-the-record trips for top political reporters and editors to the team’s headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware and meet senior officials, including the campaign manager, deputies, and other high-ranking advisors for background briefings on campaign strategy.
They’re also using it as an opportunity to tell them what they’re getting wrong. Two people with knowledge of the situation told Semafor that during meetings with reporters from outlets like The New York Times, the Washington Post, and others, campaign officials have invoked a coverage spreadsheet laying out areas where the team believes their reporting has fallen short.
In particular, campaign officials have chafed at some of the coverage of former President Donald Trump, feeling that outlets are too focused on his legal troubles and haven’t paid enough attention to some of his incendiary recent statements on the campaign trail. A source familiar told Semafor that with the exception of its recent meeting with the Times, the campaign meetings had been “substantive” and “productive,” and that Biden staffers were scheduled to meet in the coming days with political reporting teams from ABC, NBC, The Wall Street Journal, Fox, NPR, Reuters, Bloomberg, and others in Wilmington.

THE PROPAGANDA PRESS: WAPO EDITION
If I may be utterly candid: “these are the very-confused reactions of people who are still listening to other people who proclaim themselves to be ‘experts,’ but who actually have no idea what they are talking about – and never did.
Nobody cared, as long as the money kept rolling in . . .
The only thing that these rats now realize, at least in the back of their minds, is that their “once gold-lined” ship is now sinking.
One day very soon, someone will dutifully enter “The UniParty™” into the ongoing, very long, and quite interesting WikiPedia page on: “Defunct American Political Parties.” (Check it out!) 🤡
And America.
WOW! The democrat party and MILITARY are planning TREASON? These people are NUTS!
Lawmakers and others are ‘secretly’ plotting a military mutiny if Trump is elected – American Thinker
Communists do not give up power legally. They are consolidating their power by purging patriots from the military & government. Numerous patriot/right-wing organizations (some could have been not good) were taken or marginalized during the sordid & treasonous Clinton deconstruction of America years. Trent Lott was pressured because he spoke to a gathering of the Council Of Conservative Citizens, who than lost their access to politicians, because they were alinsky’d.
The big one was the growing Militia movement, which was destroyed by the OKC false flag. Its been a long process, John Birch Society was demonized long ago, but here we stand. The NRA is about the only one that has power anymore.
1984 is still imo the best book to understand the Council On Foreign Relations controlled media.
just remember: the overwhelming majority of ground level soldiers will accept and carry out the orders given to them by their superiors, including to fire on their own people.
your best chance is to NOT SERVE to begin with. if someone you care about is already in, you should be having frank conversations with them that force them to think clearly NOW about who they want to be when that occurs. if they have to think about it for the first time when the order comes down – its TOO LATE.
Obama & the Chicago Alinsky Crime Cartel’s Organizing For Action has been working for the express purpose of opposing the will of the majority of America and it’s policies steered by PDJT & MAGA. These are the parasites/ticks in the political body/bureaucracy that did all they could to hamstring and thwart the will of the people, and are the ones agitating voilence & destruction and even murder aka Antifa/BLM. Wait till you see what is going to happen in the very near future. They have been supplemented by millions of ILLEGAL invaders. This will make Dr Zhivago look tame by comparison.
They may use your home to house invaders.
as always, the most important question to me is NOT whether they will do these things, but whether the PEOPLE will comply or not. we have failed just about every time it came down to it.
perhaps this time we will not have “too much to lose”.
“They may uae your home to house invadets.”
yeah, good luck with that,…lol.
.
What do you base this on?
I tend to disagree. The overwhelming majority of “ground-level soldiers” are young, are not career military who care about their pensions (or are weekend warriors), have been fully informed about Posse Comitatus, and have mommies who read their unit’s FB pages to applaud their every accomplishment.
If you want to see who they are recently, review post-J6 kids sleeping on DC garage floor, eating wormy fast food, and marching around for show with no ammunition in their rifles (when those weren’t locked up altogether.)
We already have one example — Civil War. Soldiers from the South — including Lincoln’s premier general — didn’t stay in the Union Army.

The same thing could very well happen here, since the UK is arguably more Liberal-cultural marxist cucked than America is.

“You must be an anti-Semite”
If you think free speech is a really good thing
If you fear the future that censorship may bring
If you think Mark Zuckerberg is a pawn of the CIA
If you don’t believe whatever the western leaders say
If you march and chant “from the river to the sea”
If you say you’ll keep fighting until Palestine is free
There’s just one explanation, right there in black and white
You must be an antisemite, you must be an antisemite
These lyrics to a song by the brilliant David Rovics, from his new album Notes from a Holocaust, really put their finger on the way that a certain term has been instrumentalised to the point of utter absurdity in the interests of silencing dissent.

The story of Dinko Sakic exposes their fake Nazi hatred. They let a Holocaust death camp commander run around in Argentina openly for years. It would have greatly interfered with their plans for the Balkans and shed light on the Serbs being Holocaust victims along with the Jews & Roma and ruin their media propaganda blitz labeling our old friends & allies the Orthodox Christian Serbs as “Nazis”
Don’t be fooled by the title, the “mainstream” lying media did also.
Thank you sir. Cheers
Even “truth” that has been hidden for years is still worthy of reporting here at CTH!!! As the saying goes “In war, truth is the first casualty” that applies to the current wars in the Ukraine and in the Middle East!!! Hopefully it won’t years to find out all the truths in those wars!!!
Ty Bubby. What is old is “new”. For those who followed what the criminal Deep State did in their war crimes in the Balkan wars, the name “Fikrit Abdic” will be of interest.
If you are chanting, “from the river to the sea” or saying you’ll keep fighting until Palestine is free … you ARE anti Semitic.
The rest of your BS scree is a smokescreen.
A couple of things: Scott Adams always uses confirmation bias. He never states his case openly. This is deceitful and he uses it against his followers. He calls it ‘2 movies on 1 screen’ and it’s on all of his posts. Be aware of this.
For Vivek’s network propped up by Musk/Atman, I have to wonder how much and what were promised to the people to astroturf for him.
I see that Scott Adams has fallen in love with Vivek – I remember how with Dems in 2020 he thought Kamala was the ONE , the “ It girl” so to speak , for the Dems , especially after a couple of her Debate appearances … He’s a flavor of the month kind of guy or something …But Vivek ? come on …
.
Adams is a boring, unappealing, self-declared non-voting, apolitical, a-religious jerk, who, merely because he praised Trump’s persuasive skills circa 2016 (and once authored a funny cartoon strip based on his dog and his own miserable and mediocre employment history), has received far more attention than is warranted. Bottom line: why should anyone care what he says.
.
I hadn’t heard about Vivek’s “SAVE TRUMP” mantra till I read this article! “Save Trump” FROM what?… the deep state? “Save Trump” FOR what?…use at a later date?
Vivek Ramswamy’s Campaign To Replace Trump Crashes & Burns Just 48 Hours to Iowa’s Caucus
https://vigilantnews.com/post/vivek-ramswamys-campaign-to-replace-trump-crashes-burns-just-48-hours-to-iowas-caucus/
I assume the slogan refers to Ramaswamy’s promise to pardon Trump.
.
Vivek postures (believes? — or is it a scare tactic) that there is a good chance Trump will — for one reason or another — be kept off the ballot. Swami’s latest schtick is that people should vote for him because if they don’t, when Trump is removed because of lawfare, convention shenanigans, or presumably something worse if Trump is winning and the desperados have no other choice, that the RNC will crown DeSantis or Haley.
Hopeful opportunist? Nefarious attempt at propaganda and manipulation? “Realist” (as he explains himself)? Stealth globalist candidate? Self-promoting liar and backpeddler? Or just another candidate falling for the never-Trumpers’ machinations and promises a la DeSanctus.
I don’t know, but it sure is distaseful.

“Toxic by Design”: Researcher Explains How Big Pharma Vax Operation Shows Intent to Harm.
https://www.globalresearch.ca/toxic-by-design-researcher-explains-how-big-pharma-vax-operation-shows-intent-to-harm/5846329
An honest, independent, critical thinking scientist and patriot lays out the absolute fraud and deception of fossil fuels and “climate change”.
31 years at Harvard fighting the censorship of his research. He left because he would not take the jab.
It’s not complicated folks, just ask the right questions.
The psyop behind calling it “fossil fuels” is because it insinuates that it is finite. When PDJT was making us relatively energy independent, and providing cheap and abundant energy, this was really cutting off funding to the terrorists in the Middle East and their Intell comrades. Purchasing Petroleum from the Middle East is in truth funding terrorism, much of it created by Intell as radical Islam is their cre4ation and the newest boogeyman with the ending of the use of the Communist Boogeyman.
Ty for the video which helps smash their energy lies
I believe the origin of the term fossil fuels is that it is often found in sedimentary layers that also contain fossils. Somehow the meaning was twisted to imply it was rooted in fossils. In reality, oil has been found miles deep, below any fossil deposits. Apparently, it works its way toward the surface and collects in the spongy sedimentary layers.
Not disputing your point my friend, I am just pointing out that it was never corrected because they want to portray it as limited, “finite”.
If what I am about to read is correct with a book I have, and am about to read, a new energy is coming out that Tesla was working on and was stolen taken over by for want of a better wording by “the Deep State” criminal cabal.
Cheers
Not disputing your point, just pointing out another lie that’s been heaped into this nonsensical premise🤨
Slainte!
Thank you sDee!
I feel validated! I have for years asked so many of these climatista’s: Who are you to say what the temperature should be? LOL.
independent, not political, honest, decent, ongoing, real
‘science’ : )
(that most politician$, gl ob ists, media censure, while miss $pending tax payer funds, and national debts gallore on false narratives etc. )
Thank you for the (rare) transparent interview. ( to be shared) : )
Love thy neighbors
A recap of Dr. Willie Soon interview and sources:
Center for Environmental Research and Earth Sciences (CERES)
https://www.ceres-science.com/about
00:01:49 ‘Fossil Fuels’ in Space: Energy is manufactured via the sun with the natural elements and pressure earths magnetic core (not organic decays on the earth surface)
00:14:27 Global Warming Throughout History: Things change, as do the sun spots, solar flares, etc. over time, the clarity of the earth sky etc. It is natural ( not human made )
00:25:31 Outside Forces are Ruining Science: politicians like to pretend they have controls – and they sure do like people miss giving them money …
00:40:41 Evidence of God: science see’s it as explanation, for try, try for all they want to prove otherwise as an explanation of inexplainable facts, happenings…

Just for today, Iowa Caucus Day, I’ve been reading the e-mails I regularly get from the Haley and the DeSantis campaigns. Usually I delete these e-mails without reading them. But today is special.
The vacuous platitudes and the level of gaslighting on the major issues contained in these Haley and DeSantis e-mails is just laughable. These people think we are all stupid. And more than that, they are betting on us all being stupid.
What will they be saying tomorrow afternoon? (My guess is that they will both be staying in the contest ” out of firm conviction in the rightness of their cause”.)
Yeah. Right.
i DELETED emails Today Also.
