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.

EPA Threatens Locally Produced Beef
Mission Creep: Proposed EPA Rule Shuts Down Small Meat Producers

In Another Blow to Decentralized Natural Meat Production, EPA Rule Indirectly Shuts Down Small Meat Producers via Clean Water Act Overreach
American’s Will Lose the Choice to Buy Local Meats
On January 23, 2024, under Biden Administration guidance, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a new rule that will bring 3,879 meat and poultry products (MPP) processing facilities under their jurisdiction. This was swiftly followed by an abbreviated comment period which closed on March 25, 2024, and then immediate implementation of the rule change. All justified by wastewater levels of Nitrogen and Phosphorus coming from animal meat processing, mirroring the WEF agenda to minimize Nitrogen runoff from European farms which has sparked the widespread farmer protests throughout the European Union.
The new rule involves a major shift in the technology-based effluent limitations guidelines and standards (ELGs) for the meat and poultry industry, threatening their livelihoods by forcing them to add water filtration systems to their facilities.
What does this mean to small meat processing facilities? It’s been reported that the initial cost to install a water filtration system bringing them into compliance be $300,000-400,000 with a minimum of $100,000 annual maintenance. This would force many small meat processing facilities to shutter their doors.
Climate: The Movie (1:19:53)

We are in a full scale war on food, experiencing death by 1,000 cuts.
From coffee to chocolate to sugar to beef, the man-made shortages are being advanced every day.
A year ago, my congresscritter holding a town forum snuck in an advisory to “put something back” ( that means ” stock up” in Southern) because the whispering on the Hill was featuring the word “hunger.”
Now we can see why.
There will be a mass shortage of chocolate and a major price hike. The Ivory Coast couldn’t afford cocoa beans this year, so none have been processed.
https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/african-cocoa-plants-run-out-beans-global-chocolate-crisis-deepens-2024-03-13/
Right to reply: Now, this is a crisis to which I need to pay attention.
Successfully propagandized Idiocracy:
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday […] it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it. […] The eyeless crature at the other table swallowed it fanatically. passionately, with a furious desire to track down, denounce, and vaporize anyone who should suggest that last week the ration had been thirty grams. Syme, too-in some more double complex way, involving doublethink-Syme, swallow it. Was he, then, alone in the possession of a memory?” – Orwell George, 1984
We passed the point of coincidence about 50 incidents ago.
I use Cacao every day. That’s where all chocolate starts from.
Zero sugar and waaaaay more nutrition than regular chocolate.
So can you add a little sugar to cacao to make it more tasty but not unhealthy like cocoa?
You can add sugar and oils to cocoa powder to make it tasty. It is when you add any type of dairy to cocoa that the healthy effects go away.
A fabulous book titled, ‘Healing Spices’ tells you all about 50 different “spices” — or food used as spice — and how each works to help our bodies in different ways. It also tells when the spice is best to use (powdered/cooked/raw/pressed/etc), where the best spice is grown, and gives details about studies done around the world showing the healthy effects of each spice.
One very interesting thing in that book is that tomatoes are at their best, and fight diseases the most, once they are cooked. The author says if you want to get the most out of tomatoes eat canned tomatoes and not fresh.
Ugh, I hate tomatoes.
But I was asking about cacao, not cocoa.
I’m fixin to order ghillie suits for my sheep.
Small business optimism hits 11-year low as stock bulls keep running
Apr. 09, 2024
https://seekingalpha.com/news/4088133-small-business-optimism-at-11-year-low-as-bulls-keep-running
The EPA can’t make laws! These are rules. Do not comply. They don’t have the manpower to enforce this.
Pence and Graham should they have no respect for the Constitution. Trump is correct that abortion is a State issue not a federal one. The proper avenue for regulation or elimination is through State by State persuasion and legislation or vote. That is how the country is united. For it to be properly a federal issue would mean a Constitutional amendment.
From a political point of view there is reasoned disagreement throughout the country on whether there ought to be ANY exceptions to a ban on abortion. Most citizens seem to want legal infanticide of prenatal lives created through incest or rape or to protect the live of the mother. Others view those exceptions as immoral.
In a republic, a Presidential vote is a choice between two people. For Congress, it is essentially between two parties. We know what happens with Democrat control and we know where Trump stands. There are 3 choices. The 3rd choice i.e. people who opt out of voting, are letting others decide for them.
Pence and Graham “show” not –should–.
Pence and Graham are providing “narrative” for the other side. The intimation/suggestion is that if you have the “my body, my choice” opinion, you need to be on the ramparts against PDJT as the clear and present risk if his “side” wins.
Judas and Lickspittle are a swamp, deep-state operation. A get out the vote intention.
The evidence is mounting that the American people have forgotten how to think for themselves. First of all, where do people confined to the matrix find correct information?
Too many patriots are stuck in the ‘D’ vs ‘R’ mentality, and are therefore easily swayed by false “narratives” constructed by the Judas Pences in our midst. If we are to save our country, we must learn to think outside of that box.
We must break free of the matrix constructed around our thoughts if we are ever to *unite* again as one, sovereign American people.
As I see it, the majority of republicans are just as deluded as the majority of democrats. Each listens to propaganda meant for their own ears and then cling to the false narratives. Team players (rah rah) do not have ears to hear evidence to the contrary.
If we closely follow God’s word, we must remind ourselves how to treat our neighbors, and then act accordingly. You’d be amazed how many people will recognize truth when we’re not beating our breasts and beating them over the head with it!
My MAGA friends got into a discussion recently about DeSantis, Ramaswamy and other “possible VPs,” while raising a fist to the dastardly democrats. I was aghast at the clear lack of knowledge displayed by “team Trump.”
We who know better will need to calmly explain the facts, and that takes some finesse. When we give in to emotions like anger or fear, we not only lose our ability for rational thought, we also lose our intended audience.
Through clenched teeth, I explained to these patriots exactly what they needed to know, and they later thanked me for it.
So true! What a great post.
Yes. Very true. I have a lot of Faux News friends who are Ted Cruz “conservative” type republicans. They all got the vaccine, some even wore masks in their homes around their family, all thought that RDS was a great idea for president, none of them have an inkling about election fraud, but they do see how our society has become garbage and our economy destroyed. Every single one of them still think that it is the democrats ruining this country with no collusion from the republicans.
Yet, every single one of them will vote for PDJT.
Let’s not forget those who allow dominion and mail-in ballots to select the final candidate and install him.
I suppose that for some, who see a futility in trying to change unregenerate man by laws, would simply decide to live according to Christian principles according to their conscience, and by example be a witness to those who don’t understand, much like the early Christians who had no voting rights. There are others who also feel it is their calling to get involved politically to put a damper on cultural insanity. I agree with both.
The sooner Republicans realize that abortion is a losing issue, the better. I dislike the practice as much as anyone, but sometimes you have to know when to show restraint. Look at the seat that just flipped in Alabama. That should not have happened. Females as a group support abortion (surprising but true), and considering that they overwhelmingly vote Democrat, you have to pander to them to some extent. That’s why I don’t support a national ban. It’s a state issue and should be decided as such.
As PDJT has been saying about it as a down-ballot Republican issue.
Yes. If we want to start getting MAGA candidates winning in statewide and local races then we need muzzle Lindsey Graham. He knows exactly what he is doing: motivating the commie dem base to get out and vote in order to keep their “precious” abortion “rights”.
As I recall, Paul Ryan made abortion an issue back when he and Mitt were running. He suddenly decided to start crowing about”no exceptions”when no one was even asking.
Then there was Obama declaring that birth control would be free, and a bunch of “conservatives” took the bait and started yelling about birth control in general, when the real issue was a president decided what kind of medical care people were going to be forced into.
A commie is going for a second term, and Republicans start talking about rape.
If women want the right to abortion they should have no problem taking personal responsibility for voting for that right. They shouldn’t be depending on others in government ( or a few judges in black robes) to grant them that right.
Not all, but many females recognize that there are sometimes extremely difficult decisions to be made when it comes to pregnancy, and no woman wants Lindsey Graham having any say in it.
The “all or nothing” group of pro lifers can not see the forest for the trees. If they keep demanding the “all” they will end up with nothing. There are many out there that believe in the right to choice when it comes to rape , incest, and life of the mother. There are many that are against the 6 week restriction because it does not allow enough time to even know you are pregnant. This is where the strict anti abortion crowd are dropping the ball. We have to win in increments and allow for other opinions in order to even advance.
I can’t rationalize it the way you want me too.
Graham is a little passive/aggressive bitch trying to use dead babies to hurt Republicans–therefore enabling more abortions. A wicked perv.
btw, he recalls the Earl Butz joke about the Pope and birth control: “You no playah da game, you no makah da rules.”
Perhaps Graham fears lower future production of cannon fodder.
There is no longer a State-Federal issue distinction when the president, for example, can ban the sale of gas stoves through the “Rules” of an Executive agency. SCOTUS’s ruling overturning Roe threw a hand grenade in front of every Republican running for federal office. The media is making sure the message is that the federal government has the power to overrule a State when it comes to abortion. This is a no-win issue for Trump; he should just keep quiet about it because it will cost him votes. (I find it puzzling he’s willing to stir the abortion hornet’s nest but not the political prisoners in DC’s jail system and the corrupt judges who sent them there)
“(I find it puzzling he’s willing to stir the abortion hornet’s nest but not the political prisoners in DC’s jail system and the corrupt judges who sent them there)”
President Trump has called the J6 political prisoners, Government hostages. I would say he has addressed the issue sufficiently.
👀
Stirring the J6 hornet’s nest at this time will only make it harder on the hostages. President Trump will address this issue when he has the power to do something about it.
IMHO Trump needs to elaborate on his view, I didn’t understand the issue from federal and state which really is essential. We know graham wants war and pence is a demonic meat suit, trump is anti war.
Can you imagine how disgusting these people are who sell our kids in war for profit? “The war industry” killed, maimed, families destroyed, and they sell it.
So, “the genesis of ignorance is to ignore the evil in temptation.” The truth is they turn their heads away from mass killing of their own countrymen and women and they become ignorant and blind to truth to the point they are not redeemable. That is a perfect thumbnail of what happens to a politician. You cannot ignore your conscience and see anything of truth from that moment on. It’s why they have handlers, and trump does not.
The downfall of trump is he seeks truth and none exists in Washington. A place filled, teeming with demons and the demonic and all speaking lies.
President Trump admitting that Lindsey Graham is a traitor to his cause. We all heard South Carolinians booing for Lindsey when President Trump was campaigning in SC, the people there despise him for his antics.
“I Blame Myself for Lindsey Graham” – President Trump Blasts Senator Lindsey Graham Over Abortion Comments and Proposals”
President Trump: And in a third post President Trump blamed himself for Lindsey being in the US Senate today.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/04/i-blame-myself-lindsey-graham-president-trump-blasts/
he wins because 4-5 run against him splitting the vote if they only had one against ms lindsey that one would win
….He appears to be as hated as a bad rash, and yet he’s elected over and over….is it the …”machine”….?
Various Republicans would dangle a promise to overturn Roe v. Wade at election time, while the Democrats favored the decision.
People never seemed to catch on until recently. The Republicans like Lindsey had 50 years to do something about it, now they are knocking the man that called their bluff.
The Pence wing throwing a tantrum about Trump adopting the Republican position on abortion circa 2021 is why Trump is the GOP presidential nominee and the Pence wing is fighting to maintain its foothold in the Republican Party.
There is no Pence wing. He’s being propped up by the MSM.
Or there is a Pence wing, and he’s it.
“Pence wing?” You mean his toe?
The Supreme Court just overturned Roe v. Wade confirming out loud that abortion is a state issue and has no federal jurisdiction!
Are Pence and Graham hard of hearing or simply trying to sabotage President Trump and Republicans running for Congress!
To your last question – absolutely yes. This is electioneering on their part.

What’s So Great About The Great Reset, Great Taking, Great Replacement, Great Deflation, & Next Great Depression?

“At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move all the tables and chairs out of the way, and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theatre.” – Frank Zappa
“In the past few years, you have been living within an escalating hybrid war. Globally, we have witnessed overt media control and propaganda campaigns; censorship, including arrests of people speaking in public; monitoring of all electronic communications and physical contact tracing; brutally enforced lock-down and masking requirements, with people being beaten, handcuffed, and arrested, even in their homes; suspension of healthcare services and weakening of healthcare systems; invasive testing requirements for employment and travel; forced quarantine of travelers; and coerced quarantine and “vaccination” of the healthy, general population.
Governments dropped all pretense of democracy and were emboldened to open despotism. There were no functioning checks on this power. The courts provided no effective recourse to the public. Governments broadly abused fundamental human rights using as justification prevention of the spread of infectious diseases, which are, in truth, a great many, ever-present, and continually evolving. And so, this justification, if allowed to stand, assures the end of democracy and installation of openly despotic government.” – David Webb – The Great Taking
The Scots know how to protest: when a stupid anti-free-speech law was passed, which threatened people with 7 years in prison for speaking against “transgender” types, ” instantly” 8000 complaints came pouring in and demanding investigations of So-and-So for saying such-and-such against Tommy or Thomasina McTranny.
“Under the new legislation, anyone deemed to have been verbally ‘abusive’, in person or online, to a transgender person, including “insulting” them could be hit with a prison sentence of up to seven years.
That instantly led to a flood of bad faith reports, including from conservatives making a mockery of the system and from deranged left-wing activists trying to punish their ideological adversaries.
David Threadgold, Chairman of the Scottish Police Federation, said that the new legislation was being exploited to pursue personal and political vendettas.
“Police Scotland have gone public and said that on every occasion, reports of hate crime will be investigated,” Mr. Threadgold told the BBC. “That creates a situation where we simply cannot cope at the moment.”

Not just Lindsey.
He all of a sudden has this reverence for life when it comes to keeping Republicans from winning elections that are very important to Trump.

I have always thought of Lord Macmillan’s short answer when asked what could derail his government.
“Events, dear boy, events.”
Apocryphal or not, it was ever thus.
Our father in heaven, has control over every, single, situations, person, place, that is happening in this world, he knows what I will eat for lunch and how many gray hairs I have on my head. So let’s just pray pray pray and WAIT FOR THE LORD as the bible instructs us. He will deliver his people. He always has. And he loves us, always……..
Let me ask you something, did you know God is over ALL things? Remember Job? How God made a deal with Satan? Remember how “even the demons are subject to him”?
All things work for good for those who are in the lord.
My point is, all of this is for a reason and the simplistic answer is for salvation for those who are eligible. Even God has said “ is it your concern who I save and who I curse.”
You cannot be saved to any extent except through Gods mercy. And every demon in hell can be used to achieve what God is to do.
The very best is to never ignore what God offers, but we do. And here we are. Judge those who mean us harm, they may turn from evil or they may run to it but the standard of truth must be raised to stop the enemy.
He helps those who help themselves. You advocate doing nothing and losing everything.
Jesus save us! Amen!

The laptop was newsworthy. But the timeless journalistic instinct of following a hot story lead was being squelched. During a meeting with colleagues, I listened as one of NPR’s best and most fair-minded journalists said it was good we weren’t following the laptop story because it could help Trump.
Race and identity became paramount in nearly every aspect of the workplace. Journalists were required to ask everyone we interviewed their race, gender, and ethnicity (among other questions), and had to enter it in a centralized tracking system. We were given unconscious bias training sessions. A growing DEI staff offered regular meetings imploring us to “start talking about race.” Monthly dialogues were offered for “women of color” and “men of color.” Nonbinary people of color were included, too.

“I am a university professor (forgive me). Despite my long list of degrees, I would discourage anyone from going to universities unless they want to be a physician, an engineer or a lawyer. Universities are truly evil places designed to suck as much money out of your pocket as possible.”
Candace Owens’s Honest Message To Gender Studies Majors… (4:33)
Turning Point USA
2 Apr 2024
Gender Studying was a favorite back in my day in College …But it was strictly an extracurricular activity back then , I imagine by putting it in the curriculum , they took all the fun out of it …
I graduated from a liberal arts college around 1980. They actually had a “Women’s Study” degree even then. I am sure by now they have all sorts of “______ Study” degrees by now.
Back then college was difficult and half of the freshman class dropped out by sophomore year. Now, I think that they have created all of these easy majors so that they can keep these people paying for 4 years instead of having all of that attrition.
Why sell a product that people stop purchasing after a short time if you can keep them coming back for a few more years?
The went communist without people noticing.
Our universities were once the pride of the world.
I blame it largely on draft policy for Vietnam that pre 1971 deferred those enrolled in college-leading to a complete takeover of academia by hippie soy boy anti Americans (think Bill Ayres) that have completely changed our Universities into breeding grounds for communists.
I think regardless of draft / Vietnam era – There is no question that a large segment of the baby boom generation went into college academia , and for sure, probably most of them had liberal / anti establishment mentality back then that only grew / enjoyed the perks of that lifestyle, I suppose ..IDK ?
Just as an aside, back in my Baby Boomer High School Class there were 16 boys that were in the National Honor Society ( and 16 girls ) – the 4 smartest became doctors – and 4 others became college professors ( 3 at various University of California campuses, oddly enough ) and they were definitely of the liberal persuasion even in HS …
Most of the rest , like me , went into the working world in various capacities . But I could never really see what the attraction was of staying in that academia cocoon.. ?
But as former professor Victor David Hanson recently noted are once great Universities have turned into Indoctrination Centers …
I’m going to relate this story as perhaps to show what the Vietnam Era was like –
In Law School in the Northeast in 1969 – most in my class year – either medically deferred for various reasons – the 1Y classification , had gotten into reserve units to avoid the draft or had already served in Armed Forces and been discharged
I became friends with a guy who was a couple of years older than me and had been in College ROTC and gone to Vietnam – He was at the American advisor compound in HUE at the start of TET ( if you know the history , the NVA tried to overrun it right at the start , but they held out until Marines arrived to relieve them )
He was there for all the fighting and got shrapnel in his knee from an RPG and was eventually evacuated – after a couple of months he was sent home and he flew back to Boston to go home on medical leave
He told me that , at the airport , he was in his uniform ( he was an Army Captain ) and on crutches with his knee in a cast and this college age girl came up to him and politely asked him if he had been in Vietnam
When he said yes, and just got back – she SPIT in his face….
His story has stayed with me for all these years …
In fall 1976 I was PCS-ing to Germany from Ft. Lewis. At Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, a young woman called me a “baby killer” and spit on my uniform. I was shocked… since I was too young to go to Vietnam. I guess the uniform triggered her.
Everyone should read the history of the VC/NVA attack on the MACV compound at Hue and the Marine relief force that came to assist. It is harrowing.
True, I got the first hand account , he told me all hell broke loose all at once , he jumped out of bed and a blast outside his window threw broken glass in his face and bloodied his face and scalp. When the sun rose at first light there were several NVA / Viet Cong bodies still hanging in the wire outside the compound – after the first failed rush , it was more of a siege and he was wounded by the RPG leading a joint patrol outside the Compound … A good/brave guy

I Drove Around California For A Month. It Was A Disaster. (30:40)

California has changed and NOT in a good way! Wow! I spent a month driving around California on a road trip. I saw devastating homelessness, amazing ocean views and interesting desert communities. California has a lot to love, but this place sure has changed a lot.

AP Stylebook announces historic Merriam-Webster collaboration at ACES 2024 San Diego
A switch to a new primary dictionary, an entry change on “climate change, climate crisis” and new guidance on using the terms “obesity, obese, overweight” were among the AP Stylebook changes shared with ACES: The Society for Editing members Friday at ACES 2024: San Diego, the organization’s annual conference in San Diego.
AP Stylebook lead editor Paula Froke announced changes and style updates coming in the 2024-2026 print edition to a packed audience of about 500 conference attenders. The changes will be published in May, and some changes have already been made online.

Why I keep my old dictionaries.
Alinsky dedicated his book Rules for Radicals to none other than … Satan himself!
Hillary Clinton viewed him as a mentor and made Alinsky the subject of her Senior thesis.
He and Barack Obama were both notorious Community Organizers in Chicago.
🤔
The Luciferian Alinsky went to Chicago to study his Community Organizing mentor Al Capone.
And Barry went to study Alinsky.
They are only winning on a few of those points.
The problem with being idealistic it is just an idea until you try to make your ideas happen.
Then God and people get a say in the outcome.

I don’t want to put a black woman in Jail.

“I don’t want to put a black woman in Jail.”
That statement is so offensive. He doesn’t want to put a BLACK woman in jail but he would be more than willing to put a white, brown, yellow, purple, and green woman in jail.
It just goes to show that it is not Right vs Wrong. It is Black vs Everyone else.
What a bunch of racist garbage.
Stop it!
He’s a black man. Formerly head of Blacks For Trump on the Trump Campaign.
They put him in jail for NO REASON, when he turned himself in for ridiculous RICO charges. He’s fighting for his life here with everything he has and for everyone else charged with these same ridiculous non-crimes.
She keeps claiming it’s all about a black woman in power. What do you expect him to say?
All of the falsely charged have been patient, using the laws available to them to their advantage, while a crooked judge twaddles around allowing the crooks to stay on this non-case. While others around them throw attorneys out of the bar and file false charges against others to strip them of everything they own.
He’s saying what he should say. He’s giving her the option she should take. Should she choose otherwise, a black woman may just be going to jail. C’est la vie!
Or as one of my favorites used to say:
She’s still guilty, regardless of color.

The Lancet: Dramatic declines in global fertility rates set to transform global population patterns by 2100
“The implications are immense,” said co-lead author and Lead Research Scientist from IHME Dr. Natalia V. Bhattacharjee. “These future trends in fertility rates and livebirths will completely reconfigure the global economy and the international balance of power and will necessitate reorganising societies. Global recognition of the challenges around migration and global aid networks are going to be all the more critical when there is fierce competition for migrants to sustain economic growth and as sub-Saharan Africa’s baby boom continues apace.”

The elites have a plan…….Just what we need: a sub-Saharan baby boom with a baby bust everywhere else and politicians who are enthusiastic about massive illegal immigration.
The couple delves into the study’s alarming implications, including the potential for wealthy nations to exploit impoverished countries as “human farms” to sustain their economies through immigration.

“fierce competition for migrants to sustain economic growth and as sub-Saharan Africa’s baby boom continues apace.”
And Darth Kermit will be right there to make sure that nothing gets in between his needles and all those baby arms.
Economic growth is a stupid excuse for this silliness. It isn’t an end in itself. Growth makes sense as population expands. It makes no sense as it shrinks. These alarmists are worried about government projections and income.
Migrants are a drain and will not contribute to economic advancement. They will also eventually just kill off the older native populations where they migrate.
Oh, I don’t know. If your native population decreases…it seems to me your need for immigrant labor to support the population would decrease also. You would need fewer homes, fewer buildings, less food supply, less energy, less produced or manufactured goods.
Mass Immigration seems to be more about about nation state and cultural destruction to them (which promotes globalization).
Absolutely. Growth as an end is ludicrous.

You get groomed in this business. You go to a a high-end white shoe university. Then, either you take the tech path through Google or you take the political path through The Hill or you take the human rights path through through a UN job or through an NGO, you know, a government operated NGO and then you get credentialed through the think tanks. You get your fellowships at Carnegie or Atlantic Council or Brookings and then, by that point, the woman you marry is probably, you know, a Blob creature. The people you’re hanging out with on weekends are Blob creatures. Your news sources are all Blob publications and ne’er a hit piece will ever be written about you in the New York Times or the Washington Post. You know every golden turd you lay on the sidewalk will be deified as being abstract art instead of an actual piece of crap. I can see why there is so little descent within the Blob.
He’s answering P.J.’s Question:
“What is this oozing behemoth, this fibrous tumor, this monster of power and expense hatched from the simple human desire for civic order? How did an allegedly free people spawn a vast, rampant cuttlefish of dominion with its tentacles in every orifice of the body politic?”
Rest in the Vine: P.J. O’Rourke, R.I.P.
In addition to “the BLOB” and government Censorship Complex, he intriduces the term “G.O.N.G.O.”=
Government Operated Non-Governmental Organisation
In other words, intentionally created as a way to circumvent the Constitution, by having this “N.G.O.” that is actually “unofficially” directed BY the Govt.
We need to shut this down, yesterday.
The Russian Investigative Committee has turned up a connection to the oil and gas company Burisma Holdings in financing terrorist attacks on Russia. Burisma is the company that was paying Hunter Biden as a supposed board member. There are also connections to western NGO’s, though this translated video report doesn’t tell specific names.

Whoa.
Unfortunately, there is no doubt a whole bunch of legitimate information Russia has, on bioweopons in ukraine, who blew up nordsteam, moscow mall attack, etc. that will be suppressed as “Russia disinfo” ,..
And if dishonorable people are the ones that count the votes, you will STILL get rigged elections.
One day voting, with paper ballots, hand counted at each precinct, voter (photo) id,…sounds pretty good,…right?
Ask Nixon how well it worked, in 1960.
On the other hand, if election officials had conducted the election in Maracopa County in 2022, following all of the election laws, even with machines, mail in ballots and month long election period, the election would have been fairly conducted and Kari Lake would have won.
If we only focus on ‘fixing’ our election processes, without also focusing on ‘fixing’ how we select the people that conduct our elections, we will expend a lot of energy, to no good end.
Richer, Gates and Hickman were recruited, vetted and installed as election officials in Maracopa County, BY the Az. State Republican Party, ON ORDER TO be in position to rig the elections.

I’ve long since retired, my son’s moved away
I called him up just the other day
I said, “I’d like to see you if you don’t mind”
He said, “I’d love to, Dad, if I can find the time
You see my new job’s a hassle and the kids have the flu
But it’s sure nice talking to you, Dad
It’s been sure nice talking to you”
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
He’d grown up just like me, My boy was just like me”

As usual, the #ProfessionalLiars of our #RegimeMedia are hiding it from you, but Brazilians are coming out in the streets to peacefully demonstrate for Freedom by the, well, brazillions.
In 2022, #FakeCIADirector Burns went to Brazil and threatened Real President Jair Bolsonaro and his family, warning him not to resist the Installation of Communist Puppet Dictator Lula, installed by the CIA’s Election CheatWare at the behest of DC’s Chinese Owners.
Dictator Lula and his pet Dirty Judge are angry that, because of Elon Musk’s Twitter, the People can show these videos and speak freely.

Flashback: Brazilian Tyrannical Supreme Court Justice Moraes Who Is Threatening Elon Musk Also Refused to Investigate Election Fraud, Threatened Bolsonaro and Jailed Opposition Leaders | The Gateway Pundit:
” …tyrannical Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes initiated an investigation into Musk over potential obstruction of justice and incitement to crime.
This was after Musk refused requests by de Moraes to ban accounts that belong to prominent opposition members in the country.
Justice Alexandre de Moraes is a staunch ally of communist Lula de Silva and refused to investigate election fraud allegations after the corrupt 2022 election. Moraes also threatened former Prime Minister Jair Bolsonaro and jailed dozens reporters, religious leaders, and Bolsonaro supporters.
Radical left-wing Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes wants to fine the Liberal Party (PL) allied with President Jair Bolsonaro $4.1 million, freeze its bank accounts and investigate the Party’s chairman after the PL presented its report into the massive electoral fraud in Brazil. …
The Liberal Party (PL) presented its report Tuesday, saying that the results of pre-2020 electronic voting machines are open to manipulation and could not be verified. Using only the results from the secure 2020 electronic voting machines, the PL found that President Jair Bolsonaro won 51,05% of the vote and Communist challenger Lula da Silva only 48,95%.” …….

“You may remember, when I was talking about sexual morality, I warned you that the centre of Christian morals did not lie there. Well, now, we have come to the centre. According to Christian teachers, the essential vice, the utmost evil, is Pride. Unchastity, anger, greed, drunkenness, and all that, are mere fleabites in comparison: it was through Pride that the devil became the devil: Pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-God state of mind.”–C.S.

Psalm 58:
58 1-2 Justice? You high and mighty politicians don’t even know the meaning of the word! Fairness? Which of you has any left? Not one! All your dealings are crooked: you give “justice” in exchange for bribes. 3 These men are born sinners, lying from their earliest words! 4-5 They are poisonous as deadly snakes, cobras that close their ears to the most expert of charmers.
6 O God, break off their fangs. Tear out the teeth of these young lions, Lord. 7 Let them disappear like water into thirsty ground. Make their weapons useless in their hands.8 Let them be as snails that dissolve into slime and as those who die at birth, who never see the sun. 9 God will sweep away both old and young. He will destroy them more quickly than a cooking pot can feel the blazing fire of thorns beneath it.
10 The godly shall rejoice in the triumph of right; they shall walk the bloodstained fields of slaughtered, wicked men. 11 Then at last everyone will know that good is rewarded, and that there is a God who judges justly here on earth.
Amen.

I hate to say it, but we, as a country, have reached the point of no return . Not even Trump can fix this,,,,only God can
This has always been the case.
However, quite often when God does intervene, he selects and uses “an ordinary man” and then imbues them with extraordinary abilities.
Probably the same thing the Jews in Germany said before they were all murdered. You can give up. We will not go quietly into the night. God only helps those who help themselves.
God acts through man, right?
God will help, when we start spreading the true word of God in our class rooms and the public square. Start with asking for obedience to the 10 commandments. That alone will go a long way.

It’s OBVIOUS that Biden is NOT in charge. He does not make the decisions; the bureaucracy is running America independently without a REAL PRESIDENT. Biden is simply another HOAX on the American people like climate change. The federal government and America have been overthrown by the deep state or whatever bureaucracy is making the decisions. It certainly is NOT elected representatives.

Filmmaker releases ‘Killing America’ after YouTube pulled trailer amid cease and desist
https://www.foxnews.com/media/filmmaker-releases-entire-killing-america-youtube-pulled-trailer-amid-cease-desist
“The 38-minute “Killing America” examines widespread antisemitism in San Francisco-area schools after Hamas attacked Israel on October 7 and whether educational standards being lowered in the name of equity resulted in pushback against Israel and Jewish people. The film notes that racial equity is often prioritized ahead of merit at the schools in question, and honor classes were removed as ethnic studies were added.”
“But when the film’s trailer featured footage from a Sequoia Union High School District board meeting, Steele was hit with a cease-and-desist letter from a student newspaper of one of the schools in the film, Menlo-Atherton High School’s M-A Chronicle.”
School board meetings are supposed to be open to the public….unless some uncomfortable truths are being discussed, I suppose. Another one of 0bamas fundamental changes.
