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.

NYC Subway: Where Safety Is Job No. 319 or So
Zombies Ride Free!
ANN COULTER

Ann Coulter is a Never Trump stooge. She can pound sand.
Yeah, I knew someone would bring that up. I don’t like her either.
HOWEVER, that doesn’t mean I discard everything she says. Doing that due to a lack of ideological purity is a very -LEFTIST- characteristic.
Souter In Roberts’ Clothing
by Ann Coulter
July 20, ***2005***
https://anncoulter.com/2005/07/20/souter-in-roberts-clothing3/
After pretending to consider various women and minorities for the Supreme Court these past few weeks, President Bush decided to disappoint all the groups he had just ginned up and nominate a white male.
So all we know about him for sure is that he can’t dance and he probably doesn’t know who Jay-Z is. Other than that, he is a blank slate. Tabula rasa. Big zippo. Nada. Oh, yeah … We also know he’s argued cases before the Supreme Court. Big deal; so has Larry Flynt’s attorney.
But unfortunately, other than that that, we don’t know much about John Roberts. Stealth nominees have never turned out to be a pleasant surprise for conservatives. Never. Not ever.
You do you. She betrayed DJT. She stinks.
I hear you, but she says some pretty sharp, and correct, stuff and she knows the lawyers involved.
not really
can get correct info elsewhere
don’t need to feed her coffers
Her points on the illegal invaders are generally on the money and she’s not afraid to be honest about it. Most are afraid.
Loyalty is great but sometimes misplaced.
Lot’s of people did including many of his best friends and White House appointments!
Trump needs to discern which of them are likely to be blackmailed, and which of them work for the deep state.
Take Mike Pence. So pious, and so Christian, yet parties with Democrats who rip out unborn babies for joy! Its one thing to have to sit and discuss, and another thing entirely to choose them to dine with!
Wasn’t she a Scalia clerk at the SCOUS? I am asking. I remember she and Conway both being clerks at the SC. They also were part of the elves that roundtabled the whole Monica affair.
I remember this article well and it was spot on. Roberts is a joke now and was a joke then. Ted Cruz was used prominently to “sell” conservatives on John Robert’s bonafides. However, all one had to do was 1. actually listen to Robert’s Senate testimony (precedent over original constitution) 2. know the guy (George W. Bush) who appointed him – W, like his family, true blue decepticons 3. listen to all the excuses from the Bush-wing about how we had to get someone confirmable 4. listen to the MSM sell the democrats on Roberts – he is concerned about the “reputation of the court” – which, btw, has tanked under his Chief Justice reign
No, John Roberts is not compromised. He is exactly what Bush wanted, a closet liberal, advanced by supposed “conservative” senators. Pass gas in their general direction. That crew literally replaced the stellar Chief Justice Renquist with a turd/dud/liberal and Ann Coulter, no matter whatever her beef is with Trump, was one of the few people that saw through John Roberts and warned everybody.
“2. know the guy (George W. Bush) who appointed him – W, like his family, true blue decepticons 3. listen to all the excuses from the Bush-wing about how we had to get someone confirmable.”
True blue decepticons is right. Let us not forget the Bush Clan wishes of a NWO. The entire time those two were presidents of the United States they were working to undermine the United States.
A snippet of the George H. W. Bush New World Order Speech:
We stand today at a unique and extraordinary moment. The crisis in the Persian Gulf, as grave as it is, also offers a rare opportunity to move toward an historic period of cooperation. Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective — a new world order — can emerge: a new era — freer from the threat of terror, stronger in the pursuit of justice, and more secure in the quest for peace. An era in which the nations of the world, East and West, North and South, can prosper and live in harmony.
A hundred generations have searched for this elusive path to peace, while a thousand wars raged across the span of human endeavor. Today that new world is struggling to be born, a world quite different from the one we’ve known. A world where the rule of law supplants the rule of the jungle. A world in which nations recognize the shared responsibility for freedom and justice. A world where the strong respect the rights of the weak. This is the vision that I shared with President Gorbachev in Helsinki. He and other leaders from Europe, the Gulf, and around the world understand that how we manage this crisis today could shape the future for generations to come.
“The New World Order is struggling to be born.”
https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/commentary/2017/09/08/the-other-9-11-george-h-w-bush-s-1990-new-world-order-speech/
Yes, the BUSH family SOLD OUT America to the globalists; “A new world order” of what?
Yes, Roberts is certainly emblematic of the Bush clan, as is the makeup and behavior of the Texas Legislature in the recent Paxton Impeachment attempt, etc.
So many focus their ire on Obama, oblivious to the degree the Bushes destroyed our Republic, and paved the way for “the One”.
don’t forget Clinton
I don’t trust her, so I ignore her.
Ann is a book huckster. After her anti-Trump diatribes, I am done with the skank.
True, but everything she said about New York City is true and somebody’s got to say it!
Mayor Adams was actually bragging the other day that New York City was becoming Little Port-au-Prince!!!
How F-d up is that?
Fleetwood Mac/Mystery to Me/The City
One of Her last statements is spot on.
“We won’t be safe from psychopaths in the subway until we’re rid of the psychopaths in the D.A.s’ offices.”
famous last words.
a broken clock is right twice daily
doesn’t mean I have to keep the clock
…or the criminal psychopaths masquerading as judges!
Help…does anyone have a link to the article or an article about the Baltimore Field Office FBI Director being reassigned the day BEFORE the bridge collision?
Also the article about CISA being given some type of authority over port operations just a few weeks ago by Executive ORder?
There is an EO from last month.
https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/02/26/2024-04012/amending-regulations-relating-to-the-safeguarding-of-vessels-harbors-ports-and-waterfront-facilities
It does expand security to cyber security and it does mention CISA, but the latter is to whom those things get reported. The power is given to the Coast Guard commander who is designated as the Captain of the Port.
And who needs an article when you can get the info straight from the FIB.
https://www.fbi.gov/news/press-releases/william-j-delbagno-named-special-agent-in-charge-of-the-baltimore-field-office
The Baltimore Field Office is also where the criminals Rod Rosenstein and Shawn Henry (later of CrowdStrike) worked.
If, by “work”, you mean invading Sharyl Attkisson‘s computers for Eric Holder.
Rosenstein’s and Henry’s Constitution says all persons shall be secure in their houses and papers…unless they commit StateCrime by reporting on Eric Holder’s gun-running to the Mexican Cartels or Hillary Clinton’s gun-running to the Muslim Brotherhood, both of whom managed to kill their own subordinates with those smuggled weapons.
These creeps even look like Bond Villains from The Spy Who Revised and Extended Me:
Rest in the Vine: Well, Well, Well; Look Who Was Pawing Through CBS Reporter Sharyl Attkisson’s Digital Underwear Drawer: It Was Sweaty Perv Rod Rodentstain and His Little Rat-lings–Including Agent Shawn Henry, Now the Head of CrowdStrike!
…johnheretohelp / Jon McGreevey,
-God rest his soul,
wrote and spoke of the criminals and crimes.
His suspended (wiped) twittter account
has much of it
Yes, I miss that guy. He validated Sharyl’s claim that they would put child porn on a family member’s computer to blackmail people.
It explains ObamaCare. And 2020. And …
Rod Rosenstein is a Republican like Vladimir Lenin was a Republican!
VI Lenin would be right down the middle with the modern RINOs.
But RR IS a Republican, so is Comey, Mueller,…and Weinstien was first brought into the 7th floor of FBI Headquarters, under “W”s admin.
Bet it wasn’t the drawer. Probably the clothes hamper.
Almost like the last minute changes-what were they-disarming the populace, changing the venue of the music festival-before 10/7.
You get what you vote for (or allow them to steal).
SUCK IT Dems.
I truly don’t give a damn.
Perhaps they can pull a Hochul and just bring in the National Guard to police the streets. Heck maybe they can even unconstitutionally search people’s bags In Baltimore as well. After all, wasn’t the defund the police movement the plan to federalize policing?
They screeched for what amounts to anarchy over the fabricated George Floyd lunacy. They got their wish. Enjoy.
Baltimore City politicians have turned their backs on their police multiple times. Law enforcement packed up and left them to their own demise.
.
Where are all the D’assandro’s (sp?) now . . .?
…screwing San Francisco and California!
Those with sense have left.

Writing in The American Spectator, Murdock suggested the former president should sue James as “what the hell does Trump have to lose?”
“He immediately should file a federal complaint and demand justice under America’s keystone civil-rights law. To see a white male multi-billionaire sue a [Black] female attorney general to secure his civil rights would be the ultimate man-bites-dog story,” Murdock wrote.
https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-sue-letitia-james-civil-rights-1884008
Pretty sure that applies to FANI.
And to make it really spicey….
Start adding complaints tot he EEOC….given the “Orange Man Bad” syndrome.
Y’all got me so emotional today with these beautiful posts…
I love my country and want it to LIVE and PROSPER
God bless you all, and America, and all of our liberal loved ones, abundantly Lord God, in Jesus Name, Amen!
He really is one of the best retail campaigners I’ve ever seen. You see these phonies like Warren, Pelosi, McConnell, Schiff, and you wonder how they ever get elected. They’re so far removed from normal people. PT reminds me of someone you could have at your dinner table, and it would be a really fun time.
I don’t wonder how they got elected.
RINO’s and Dems pay for their seats. That is how they get reelected. They pay people to falsify machines and ballots.
LEO’s are taking pictures! Love this.
Per mining engineers in my family, the Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore is having ripple effects in the mining industry. A lot of coal is shipped out of Baltimore. Reduced work hours and layoffs of miners are already on the table, at least until transportation of goods to other ports can be figured out. One engineer says it will take a year to get things figured out.
Here’s a Scientific American article on same: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/baltimore-bridge-collapse-wreaks-havoc-on-coal-car-supply-chains/
So this was intentional. Explains why Biden offered to fix the bridge with no investigation by an insurance company. Now more than ever I’m convinced this was intentional.
Here’s the thing. It could be an accident, or it could be China, but our government has lost the benefit of the doubt.
What a weird world when so-called “conspiracy theories” run 50/50 on a disaster being caused by a foreign enemy or our own government. And when the average time is down to roughly a month between “you’re a crazy conspiracy theorist”, and “yeah we did it. so what?”
ISIS-K.
Or the new splinter group, ISIS Pre-K.
Abbreviated to CIA
Now that’s funny!
Charles Dodgson said, ” …our government has lost the benefit of the doubt.”
Yup.
And even if they are correct/truthful on a particular point/situation, what they do next will destroy any benefit that might have followed.
It was Russia. We are constantly sending surface water drones towards Black Sea Russian asset, ships and the Kerch bridge.
Russia said “hold my beer” and created a ginormous water surface drone to take out a bridge right next door to our national capitol.
As with all the ‘events’, the ‘official’ response immediately assures the masses that while the exact ’cause’ is yet to be determined, by golly the authorities know with a surety what/who is not to blame. Amazing prescience these officials possess.
That ship lost power just as much as your house does when you turn out the lights at night.
Trust God. Fear not.
Governments are usually self-insured. The ship’s insurance will cover the ship only.
Highly unlikely.
Liability? They have a massive GL policy, for sure.
No general liability, that is for a premises. This is a marine exposure so completely different. Protection and Indemnity would be the liability portion for the ship.
GL for the owners / operators not the boat.
Watercraft is specifically excluded from Comprehensive General Liability policy, it is a ocean marine exposure so marine coverage must exist.
Intentional or not, why would you cover for incompetence and negligence of the responsible parties?
Should be handled like an auto accident on steroids at the very least.
As a general rule intentional acts are not covered.
Understood. My use of “cover” was directed at the Biden Administration and media in general.
.
Trucks are regularly subject to ‘safety checks’ and will be ‘locked down’ if an inspector deems it too dangerous to be on the road.
If this ship was noted as needing maintenance/repairs while at dock, shouldn’t it have been ‘locked down’?
Even if unintentional, and it very well could be just that given the videos by those in the industry that are now starting to be posted online, we still have people in authority who’s mantra remains “never let a (left blank on purpose) go to waste.”
The powers that be will turn it into an opportunity – get money to their voters through special high paying job cut outs to fix things and keeping their political opposition on edge by spreading ‘of course it was terrorism’ stories, one getting $ the other remaining distracted from all that $ flying out the door.
either way, the press aren’t asking the right questions and no one on the job at that harbor are volunteering any real details of who, what, when, where and definitely not why. We can’t even get a straight answer on who was piloting the vessel.
Listen to Laura Logan. This is terrifying.
https://twitter.com/KCPayTreeIt/status/1772747917717037318/mediaViewer?currentTweet=1772747917717037318¤tTweetUser=KCPayTreeIt
I tried the link, it says “This page doesn’t exist”.
I did listen to her the other day, and then realized we’re supposed to simply trust her, unnamed sources with lovely innuendo is the gravy for grift and we are so past that – if it is terrorism and her government insider employee sources say it is – give us some names. It’s time for people to stand up, and enter the arena.
Our nation really can’t take much more of this gaslighting – from all sides. Anti-China, Anti-Russia, Anti-US Government rhetoric leads to two possibilities – war with foreign nations or civil war. It’s time for these reporters and youtube talkers and influences to speak truth and let the light shine.
It’s why I love the Treehouse so much, through learning from Sundance and many of the commenters, we are learning to ask the right questions and let the truth have its way, truth has no agenda – hiding behind unnamed sources does.
People actually in the field of harbors, shipping, moving cargo over the oceans are just now starting to post their observations after taking due time to view the video, where possible to research the records of those involved, and openly using their name and experience in the world so people can make their own conclusions of who, what to believe.
Ms. Logan is very good at hitting the emotional highpoints without anyone able to verify her words. She may be right on and perfectly relaying what she is being told, but who knows?
Thank you.
I didn’t bother to try the link, because I am not signed up for twitter, and don’t want to be.
NONE of the links posted in comments( with btw NO brief explanation as specified in the guidelines!) ever “goes thru”; all I get is a white page with a big “X” on it, so why bother?
I agree WE have been far too manipulated by anonymous sources, and I believe often the media themselves may well be manipulated, too.
Too much “strategic leaking” going on,…
“never let a crisis go to waste….”
you are so right, Bessie2003!!
i see the hallmarks of that all over this crash.
we don’t know what happened yet,
and any maritime professionals (engineers, etc.) being consulted will need some time to determine the cause or causes.
yet, the monolithic MSM and government response seems determined to fuel MORE speculation, does it not?
hook baited, bait taken.
again, “never let a crisis go to waste”.
ever consider that while you’re digging for the truth, and then think you’ve found it, and then post it everywhere,
you’re actually finding exactly what the paranoia-mongers want you to find and publicize,
thus painting yourself as unhinged for their purposes?
(the plural “you” is not directed at anyone personally.
am referring to some of the more frenzied responses to this tragedy in toto.)
internet commenting does not confer degrees in medicine, engineering, heavy machinery repair, etc.
there are still some very serious minded experts left in the hard sciences and the make-stuff-work fields, though perhaps not for much longer.
important now to seek out these mostly anonymous people and learn from them.
or, at least learn to differentiate between a keyboard “expert” and the real thing.
yes, everyone is entitled to their own opinion,
no matter how it makes you look.
i just have to wonder if today’s “conspiracy theorists” are knowingly, or unknowingly, participating in an even bigger conspiracy than they recognize, i.e. making a certain segment of the population look like a bunch of dilettantes.
just a thought.
At one time, we had two seperate Depts of the Federal Govt., each occupying a bldg in D.C.
Ones whole reason for existing, was to discourage tobacco use.
The others was to encourage farming, which included incentives for growing tobacco.
Our Federal Govt.
So now I hear that they did drop the Port Anchor but not the Stern or Starboard anchor.
Wouldn’t dropping all the Anchors have stopped it very quickly?
Are anchors designed for stopping a ship or holding it in place once motion stops? And they don’t always work to hold the ship in the same spot.
While they can arrest motion, they are not brakes. I’m not a sailor, or a deep water oversized diesel transporter, but the fact is that ships don’t have brakes – at all – http://www.marineinsight.com/naval-architecture/ships-stops-brakes/
Paging Senator Proxmire…pick up on line 4547….oh wait…./s
Europe depends upon this coal after Nordstream. The effects are massive.
And we’re finally starting to get to the bottom of who might benefit from this.
War on Carbon energy (Coal, Oil and LPG) has been going on for many years, and ain’t over yet.
My initial thought was “no, probably just a freak accident” but already flipped to probably WAS intentional act, and my own Giverment jumps to the top of the suspect list.
Sad,…
The green crew supported by globalists.
U.S. and Norway took over the LNG market there.
And there have been a fair number of recent accidents at US LNG facilities, no?
Back in Scranton, Joey Fentanyl comes from a long line of Welsh coal miners and NordStream bombers.
I thought he was a African-American Irish Jew?
with Palestinian relatives.
When did he ever say he was Welsh?
Great observation. While shipment of cars can be transferred without too much logistical trouble to other ports, shipment of coal cannot as it requires specific equipment to handle it and load it onto ships.

2018 Letter From Michael Cohen’s Lawyers Admitting Trump Knew Nothing About Stormy Daniels ‘Hush Money’ Transaction Re-Emerges Ahead of Trial.
Stormy Daniels lawyers admitted in writing that Daniels never had sex with Donald Trump!!!
I don’t know how you can prosecute the victim of extortion instead of the perpetrators?
If JD Vance is not at the top of your VP list he probably will be if you read this article:
https://revolver.news/2024/03/trumps-secret-weapon-senator-jd-vance-vp/
Darren Beatty was on WarRoom last night explaining why JD Vance is top choice. While I would hate to lose him in the Senate, the rationale for VP makes perfect sense. This article explains it in detail.
I like him better than I like some of the others who are allegedly under consideration. Certainly better than Tim Scott or Kristi Noem.
Vance should not be penalized for being a white guy.
Does he want it? I don’t even know.
Saw him yesterday on CSPAN. Telling Republicans to not be ideological.
He is on the top of Dr. Carol Swain’s list as well…
I agree with Revolver that he’d be a good choice but really hate for the Senate to lose him. We need more like him in the Senate.
Thanks for the link; excellent article.
President Trump will make the final decision, as he should.
JD Vance is an excellent MAGA Senator. It appears that he would make a very good VP, at least from what I’ve witnessed so far.
Dr. Carson is also an excellent contender. His critics cite his quiet nature as a negative, but I suspect he has more fire in him than we know.
At least President Trump has a few competent, loyal MAGA leaders to chose from.
Personally, I prefer someone that there is NO doubt of, regarding their fire in the belly, to someone that others are reassuring me its there.
“81 million votes my *ss!” is my ringtone.
And “Trump in a skirt” remains my choice for VP.
Many people here supported the appointment of Sessions.
Dr.Carson is not experienced enough to deal with the current political landscape….he showed that in his campaign run. They would roll all over him.
The arguments advanced for J.D., first off miss entirely the key and most vital quality, the “Insurance Policy Quality” that PDJT’s VP MUST have, in order to enable PDJT to function in his second term, without having the axe of removal from office hanging over his head.
As for all the arguments made in the article, they all apply equally well to the ONE candidate that DOES possess this Insurance Policy Quality; Kari Lake.
She has the loyalty; when told to distance herself from PDJT, she moved CLOSER.
She certainly has the ability to communicate, and be a vocal defender.
She has raised over $2 million, almost entirely small donations, for her Senate Campaign so is a strong fund raiser.
She carries Az. a key State.
She has the capability to learn and grow into the job of POTUS, and be a formidable candidate in 2028.
And, she causes the anti-MAGA forces to soil themselves, imagining her as VP or POTUS; SHE is there worst nightmare as such, their attempted bribe confirms she has that Insurance Policy Quality.
Some have said “she doesn’t have enough experience.”
I completely disagree, the way she handled her campaign for Governor and the way she took charge in the numerous court cases regarding that fraudulent AZ 2022 election proved to me how incredibly smart, astute, and yes adaptive to learning she truly is.
I would applaud a Kari Lake choice. Another plus in her corner is how much the leftists and rinos hate her.
Thank you!
I thought for a minute there you were talking about Catherine Engelbrecht.
Clearing The Air On Deadline To Ditch Gas Cars For EVs: Patch Survey
Clearing The Air On Deadline To Ditch Gas Cars For EVs: Patch Survey | Across America, US Patch
“More than three-fourths of respondents (76.4 percent) disagreed with the policy, saying internal combustion engine vehicles shouldn’t be phased out at all. And 58.2 percent of respondents said they definitely won’t buy an EV or hybrid the next time they buy a car. Full results are found at the bottom of this story.”
76% do not want EVs and 70% of Americans think this country is headed in the wrong direction. I really hope those people vote accordingly.
Car mechanics will be gold if this EV policy stays in place. A big problem will still arise if we protest by not buying electric….when that gas vehicle breaks down….The parts that would come from china.
Would be wise, if it looks like this will be the future, to order and save parts that are a known issue.
Even though it was not quite the time to replace, I did it anyway before it all became unaffordable or materials unavailable. My roof, hardi plank, windows, AC, Fencing, installed generator, hand pump on irrigation system. It was painful…$….but I can spend my last few years (hopefully) not worrying about it.
JMO , Saving all of it or investing to make more , may pan out to not be the wisest strategy. Spend money wisely while it is still worth something , if it looks inevitable our dollars will be worth 0. It may even be on storing food, meds, or barter items. But I know I’m singing mostly to the choir. God help us if we accept another “steal”.
Yup, if EMP is your concern, invest in spare alternator, or if you are handy at least spare diodes FOR the alternator for your car, and a spare computer if you have OBD1 computer, aka ECM for your vehicle, and store in a farraday cage, grounded.
If you plan on keeping your older vehicle, consumable parts like break pads/shoes isn’t a bad idea,…will only cost more, later.
Jack Cashill is on his way to D.C. or so he wrote about 10 hours ago. I’m not sure what for, he said “got a nation to save”, but it may be to testify at this Great Grandma’s trial.
J6 great-grandma heads to D.C. to face ‘an impartial jury’
Exclusive: Jack Cashill talks to lady who refused to plea bargain over 12 minutes in Capitol
By Jack Cashill

https://www.wnd.com/2024/03/j6-great-grandma-heads-d-c-face-impartial-jury/
As it states in Jack’s article, this beautiful great grandma Rebecca is documenting her trial/persecution here:
https://restoringgodlyculture.com/
Good to hear he’s heading there; he did excellent investigative work on the TWA disaster when that plane went down over Long Island area so whatever got him going must be a real doozy!
Another instance of how WE could use UNIRY; IF every person arrested, refused to take a plea bargain, and insisted on going to trial, the whole corript court system would collapse under its own weight, very quickly.
In my wayward youth, I was charged with a Feferal offence, many felonies and misdemeanors, and i NEVER accepted a plea bargain.
Interesting. So Cohen was banging Stormy since 2006 and he and the porn star cooked up an extortion scheme.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/03/breaking-whistelblower-claims-michael-avenatti-reportedly-revealed-michael/
There’s also this headline from The Gateway Pundit today. Neither President Trump or his campaign even knew about the hush money paid to Stormy. Cohen took out a Heloc loan to pay her and told no one.
“2018 Letter From Michael Cohen’s Lawyers Admitting Trump Knew Nothing About Stormy Daniels ‘Hush Money’ Transaction Re-Emerges Ahead of Trial”
IIRC, there is also a signed, authenticated letter by STD, (Stormy T. Daniels) saying DJT knew nothing, as well?
It’s why she was ordered to pay his legal bills.

Speaking of movies….I highly recommend a New Netflix Original about the story of Moses. Was very surprised by it.
If you choose to watch, I am sure you will see how so much of it is relative to whats going on today. How God choose an imperfect vehicle “Moses” Gods hardening of Pharaoh’s heart where he couldn’t see his own arrogance was hurting his people.
Pharoah trying to use the Hebrews children hostage to ensure the Hebrews returned from the desert.
Then there was the burning question….why didn’t God just free his people by his own power ….The people who had been dependent on Pharaoh ruling (today government) over them for the 400 years of their enslavement. One explanation given for Gods decision… the Hebrews shouldn’t expect God to do everything….
They would have to fight to secure their own freedom….
How could they possible govern themselves as free people unless they acted as free people and fought their controller. The controller who had provided access to food, water and shelter.
Anyway many parallels. It has several episodes of almost 2hours each.
And, when moses came down off the mountain with the tablets, drew a line in the sand, and purged the tribe of the worshipers of the golden calf,…see any parralels with the RINOS of today?
This case is such a farce, but then again it is all supposed to be “Get Trump” regardless of how much it degrades our judicial processes. The Court of Public Opinion is meant to smear the defendant. I wonder if they realize these cases are only empowering our President Trump.

Excerpts:
The letter also states that the Trump Org nor the Trump campaign reimbursed Michael Cohen for the $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels.
This directly contradicts Cohen’s testimony – not surprising given Michael Cohen is a convicted perjurer.
Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford, and neither reimbursed Mr. Cohen for the payment directly or indirectly,” the lawyer wrote.
“Contrary to the allegations in the complaint, which are entirely speculative, neither Mr. Cohen nor Essential Consultants LLC made any in-kind contributions to Donald J. Trump for President, Inc., or any other presidential campaign committee.” he said.

Do not Fear / Worry / Be Afraid is in the Bible 365 times. One verse for every day of the year. 🙂
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Finally, draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power. (Ephesians 6:10)
Fear is Faith in reverse.
Worry is the waste of a truly great imagination.
Fear is the darkroom where negatives are developed.

The video in this link is worth watching. DC Draino speeds up the ship’s movement which really makes it look like an intentional hit of the bridge. My question is, is this “strategic attack” foreign or domestic? Just wondering? I don’t know how to post that video separately without having to go to the Instagram link, my apologies!
I first saw the video on quick speed – no question, absolutely a deliberate event, imo.
Lara Logan’s people have brought sober lucidity & clarity – *a lot* comes into sharp focus with that article.

“… Immediately upon landing in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on Friday, President Joe Biden visited the Forbes Avenue bridge over Fern Hollow Creek.

from Logan’s report:
“… They believe those in charge will make sure the investigation into the bridge crash “goes nowhere quick”….”
Another thought. Unconfirmed.
The ship’s bow quit turning, but it’s stern swung around quite far. (the sped up video highlights this.)
Would dropping the starboard anchor do this? This is a massive ship, with a comparatively little anchor that is not supposed to do much when the ship is in motion.
But then on that video, the ship made a very sharp turn quite rapidly, which is something that such large ships aren’t supposed to be able to do either.
IMHO, an anchor, no.
Grounding is probably the only thing that could cause that,…

“Theres no going back: Feds are now hunting down Americans who simply viewed “certain” YouTube videos..”
Excerpts:
US federal court has ordered Google to reveal the identities of tens of thousands of viewers who watched specific videos within a set period. Let freedom ring, right? Day by day, it feels like we’re inching closer to a North Korea-style surveillance state, and it doesn’t seem like it’s going to ease up. Securing the White House in 2024 is critical, but even then, we have to wonder: have we crossed a point of no return?
Hearing all this, you’ve got to wonder, “Is this why they’re so keen on ‘controlling’ TikTok?” It’s a legit question, especially when you think back to how they pitched the Patriot Act to us all—swearing it was for our safety, and so on. But look at where we are now, using it for things we could never have imagined. We’ve got patriotic Americans being branded as “domestic terrorists” just for attending a legitimate rally on January 6th, and others are getting slapped on “no-fly lists” for their online posts.

I’m sharing this link to Paul Ingrassia’s Substack on how President Trump and his A-Team can eliminate the possibility of the Congress blocking HIM from taking Office upon his successful re-election :
It’s a very good read and makes sense.
https://paulingrassia.substack.com/p/revenge-of-the-swamp-dc-rinos-attempting?r=pezdl
If We work to ensure that MAGA candidates are elected to Congress we won’t have to worry about certifying the election of President Trump 47. Those down ballot Republicans are more important than ever.
I remember looking at the 2020 election in which Republicans flipped fifteen House seats, including one held by a Libertarian in 2020.
In several of those districts where Republicans flipped a House seat FJB was miraculously awarded the Presidency by a few thousand votes. One area was Grand Rapids, MI. There were several other areas where this happened. This suspicious cat wondered at the logic of folks voting for a Republican Representative but then voted for FJB. It turned out those areas had extremely suspect voting irregularities.
That Republicants are resigning in the House, can not be denied.
The motives and machinations however, are open to speculation.
Even if this theory of why is valid, to me its a desperate stretch with little chance of success.
I think whats far more likely is the anti-Trump forces concede PDJT can not be defeated at the ballotbox, he WILL be 47, and so once again they are laying the groundwork for an “Insurance policy” of Impeachment, this time not waiting until the mid-terms to flip the House.
Last time, they were ‘too clever by half’, and so are trying to insure a D Majority House and Senate, thru these House R resignations, and enough ‘squishy’ R’s in the Senate announcing they are switching party, to make the Senate a D majority.
The obvious counter is for PDJT to have an “Insurance Policy” of his own; a VP that is SO unappealing to the anti-Trump forces, that knowing such a VP is “waiting in the wings” would strongly discourage the anti-Trump forces from pursueing ANY means of removing him from office.
For Chess players like PDJT and McConnell, this was obvious a YEAR ago, and both have already made their plays, with McConnells attempt to block PDJT’s Queen thwarted.
Lets see what happens,…is it “Check” or “Check mate”?

Does anyone know if Trump paid off the mortgage and paid for the funeral of the police officer who was killed in NYC?
https://www.instagram.com/p/C5BfbZ7OONb/
It is being reported on several sites that he did – not sure how to verify it other than directly asking the T2T foundation if he did make this donation as claimed.
Yeah, that’s the only information I’ve seen about the mortgage, but nothing about the funeral except someones post on Facebook.
So glad to see this possibility (probability?) posted. I watched as the hundreds and hundreds of LEOs lined up in quiet salute, and it crossed my mind — President Trump would just as quietly step in to help. Because that’s who he is, that’s what he does. And I will be disgusted when the libs put a political spin on such kindness.
But, but PDJT has been BANKRUPTED, by all of the LEGAL costs he has incurred as a result of the unending lawfare attacks, so how coukd he possibly afford to pay this mortgage?/sarc.

Border Crisis Has Completely Upended Census Bureau’s Population Stats, Report Says
Immigration into the U.S. has risen so rapidly that it beat out federal projections by decades, according to a report from the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) released on Thursday. The total number of immigrants in the U.S. rose to a record high of 51.4 million as of February 2024, representing 15.5% of the total population, according to CIS. The U.S. Census Bureau published projections in November which estimated that the share of foreign-born nationals in the U.S. would not reach 15.5% until at least 2039, making the projections “obsolete,” CIS authors Steven Camarota and Karen Zeigler wrote.The 15.5% includes both immigrants who are in the U.S. legally and those who are undocumented or are in the country illegally, according to a CIS review of the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey (CPS). Illegal migrants account for roughly 25% of the 51.4 million total number of foreign nationals currently living in the U.S., the other 75% being in the country legally.
The issue is not the color of the immigrants. The issue is their lack of dedication to the founding principles of our country.

51.4 million ?? Ha. Double that number, then you might be getting close.
I am 69, and have lived my whole life in the U.S., although being something of a gypsy, I have moved around a lot.
As an adult, I never made a conscious effort to avoid the census, but never made an affirmative effort to get counted, either.
I THINK I once recall a phone call from someone alleging to be from the census, and I told them to FOAD, figuring they were a scammer.
So far as I know, I have NEVER been counted, so imagine if I were an illegal?
“The enormous scale of immigration over the past three years has implications for nearly every aspect of American society, including public coffers, the labor market, schools, hospitals, and the balance of political power, to say nothing of whether we can assimilate this many people,” Camarota and Zeigler wrote in the study.”
“whether we can assimilate this many people”
They don’t want to assimilate. They came here for free stuff and to send money home to family. They get free everything so can afford to send money home. This is why President of Mexico can get away with making demands of this administration. In 2023 his country raked in $85+ Billion in remittances from legal and illegal “migrants”. And now he had this to say about the United States.
Mexico President Andrés Manuel López Obrador says the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore shows that “migrants go out and do risky jobs at midnight” and as a result they “do not deserve to be treated as they are by certain insensitive, irresponsible politicians in the United States.”

EXCERPTS:
This deserves a bit more because frankly, I’m getting tired of the nuts.
Indeed this might get added to my FAQ here (go see the section on “Troofers” for what happens if you run that garbage on my forum, whether in the comment section or otherwise) because it is getting about that stupid.
It is clear that the power went off on the vessel. Why it went off remains to be determined but that it did, and that the emergency generator started when it did, is known because you can see the power go off and then come back on. It then trips a second time, presumably due to an extreme demand (e.g. the skipper attempting a last-ditch use of the bow thruster at full power to keep off the piling.)
Until the power went down the ship was in the channel and on a stable heading. It would have had some starboard rudder dialed in — in other words, it was not set dead straight forward — because the normal “walk” of the screw ahead would be to induce a port turn if it was dead straight. When the power goes down that torque and rotational effect disappears and the rudder is now going to try to turn the ship slightly to starboard, and it is locked there with power off. Add to this any current impact if the flow is in any way other than head-on (and as noted it almost never is straight on) and the impact of wind and that the ship began to yaw is not surprising, nor is it surprising it went to starboard.
Without power you now are riding on 100,000 tons of metal (and cargo) traveling at whatever velocity you were at underway which is subject to external forces you cannot counteract. By the time the power comes back up it is likely there was nothing that could be done to prevent the collision but you can bet they tried — the second power failure made those attempts irrelevant. As you can see from the video when the power comes back again they’re within seconds of impact.
Modern emissions requirements make no-electric-required operation impossible. On a modern vessel without electrical power its engine shuts down because it is electronically controlled and the fuel pumps, conditioning equipment for the fuel, any after-treatment of the exhaust and various other required elements all require it, along with mechanical control being insufficiently precise to meet modern emissions standards. While I could operate with no electrical power at all provided the engines were running before the failure occurred this is not true for modern vessels and engines.
Finally, contemplate that it would be close to impossible to actually know that causing a power loss of this sort, assuming you could, would result in this sort of calamitous outcome. Exactly where that ship goes when the power goes off is determined by facts you cannot know with sufficient precision in advance; if the tide or wind had been different it might have gone right under the span and, if it had, there would have been no calamity at all (however, it might have gone aground on the other side somewhere once it got out of the channel.)
Large commercial ships also have data recorders similar to an airliner’s “black boxes” and I’m sure by now the USCG and other US authorities have them in-hand and will be going through them. They include both very detailed machinery logging as well as voice records. From that the precise sequence of events, including the orders given (and by whom) will be able to be determined.
But from what is known now — and in fact what was known at the time the event occurred I see nothing to suggest that this is anything other than an extremely serious industrial accident.

Facebook Secretly Wiretapped Competitors –
Facebook secretly obtained proprietary data from competitors, including Snapchat, according to newly unsealed court documents.
At the request of CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook officials developed a program called In-App Action Panel (IAAP) that they deployed in 2016 and which was in use through mid-2019, according to the documents, which include internal emails.
The program utilized cyberattacks to intercept information from Snapchat, YouTube, and Amazon. The program then decrypted the information.
“Facebook’s IAAP Program used nation-state-level hacking technology developed by the company’s Onavo team, in which Facebook paid contractors (including teens) to designate Facebook a trusted ‘root’ certificate authority on their mobile devices, then generated fake digital certificates to redirect secure Snapchat analytics traffic (and later, analytics from YouTube and Amazon) from Snapchat’s servers to Onavo’s; decrypted these analytics and used them for competitive gain, including to inform Facebook’s product strategy; reencrypted them; and sent them up to Snapchat’s servers as though it came straight from Snapchat’s app, with Facebook’s Social Advertising competitor none the wiser,” lawyers said in one of the documents.
The lawyers, representing plaintiffs in a lawsuit that accuses Facebook of anti-competitive behavior, were describing emails they obtained through discovery.
In one email, Mr. Zuckerberg wrote that there was a need to receive information about Snapchat but that their traffic was encrypted. “Given how quickly they’re growing, it seems important to figure out a new way to get reliable analytics about them. Perhaps we need to do panels or write custom software. You should figure out how to do this,” he wrote.
After Facebook employees started working on figuring it out, Facebook Chief Operating Officer Javier Olivan wrote that the program could pay users to “let us install a really heavy piece of software (that could even do man in the middle, etc.).”
Man in the middle refers to a type of cyberattack where attackers secretly intercept information.

Providing further support for this theory is the fact that of the 14 or so members that have announced early retirements, at least six of them have received significant funds from notorious anti-Trump megadonor, Paul Singer: Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Patrick McHenry, Drew Ferguson, Kay Granger, Blaine Luetkemeyer, and Greg Pence. Singer, as smartly reported by investigative journalist Troy Smith, and veteran political operative, Roger Stone also donated a whopping $5,000,000 to Nikki Haley’s failed presidential bid – which marked another attempt by the deep state to derail President Trump in his tracks.
If President Trump, for example, calls out Mike Gallagher’s antics in their path – that might force him to step down early, and not wait until beyond the deadline to give Democrats another seat. Putting a national spotlight on the issue, by way of President Trump and his campaign, might also prevent other would-be House RINO turncoat members from pulling off a similar trick – and might also put pressure on House Speaker Mike Johnson to reprimand, or potentially even expel, members that do not fall in lockstep.

SO……….MY SON WAS FLUNKING OUT OF COLLEGE, SO……. I TOLD HIM, “YOU WILL MARRY THE GIRL I CHOOSE.”
HE SAID, “NO.”
I TOLD HIM, “SHE IS BILL GATES’ DAUGHTER.”
HE SAID, “YES.”
I CALLED BILL GATES AND SAID, “I WANT YOUR DAUGHTER TO MARRY MY SON.”
BILL GATES SAID, “NO.”
I TOLD BILL GATES, “MY SON IS THE CEO OF THE WORLD BANK.”
BILL GATES SAID, “OK.”
I CALLED THE PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD BANK AND ASKED HIM TO MAKE MY SON THE CEO.
HE SAID, “NO.”
I TOLD HIM, “MY SON IS BILL GATES’ SON-IN-LAW.”
HE SAID, “OK.”
AND THAT’S EXACTLY HOW POLITICS WORKS.
