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…

Battered Conservatives No More – By Sundance
1. We admit we were unaware of our Republican abusers – Our elections have become manipulated.
2. We accept that only a power greater than ourselves can restore our republic.
3. We make a decision to focus our effort and our life to the care of a loving God.
4. We have made a searching and fearless inventory of our prior beliefs.
5. We have admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human, being flawed in our political belief.
6. We are entirely ready to have God free us from defects of character, break our victim mindset and strengthen our resolve.
7. We humbly asked Him to remove our false assumptions.
8. We have made a list of all political abusers, and we commit to holding them all accountable.
9. We accept the need to confront the republican abusers, if even when doing so hurts their feelings.
10. We continued to take personal inventory and if we accept victimization again, we promptly admit it.
11. We seek through prayer and deliberation to improve our conscious contact with God, praying only for righteous knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
12. Having had an emotional, intellectual and spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we pledge to carry this message to others who are abused, and to practice these principles of awakening in all our political affairs.

On average it takes 7 attempts to break the cycle of domestic abuse and leave one’s abuser…
The similarities between domestic abuse in the home or from politicians affecting our ‘home’ (citizens/country) are no coincidence.
Unburdening oneself takes an immense amount of inner strength and planning, to achieve that freedom.
Think of the words you have written about how difficult it is to escape one’s oppressor. Then connect those words to the comment right below about RFK Jr., RFK Jr.’s speech, RFK Jr.’s being rejected by the DNC and RFK Jr.’s being shut down and censored by the corrupt media.
RFK Jr. left the Democrat Party and backed a Republican. I guess you could say RFK Jr. finally left his abuser.
In dropping out of the race, he did not lose. He won!
He won by blowing up the whole game. He won by completely exposing the completely corrupt fraudulent machine that is Washington, DC. He exposed the Democrat Party for running a coup to remove Sleepy Joe. He exposed the Republicans in DC for sitting on their hands and allowing the coup to take place.
He exposed the media as well for running cover for the DC cesspool.
He joined President Trump and the “threat to democracy”, “domestic extremist”, “basket of deplorables”, “citizens” whose only crime is to want to Make America Great Again. He will bring many with him.
It’s a big tent, this MAGA tent. All citizens are welcome.
Boy, did this one blow up spectacularly for the deep state. They are dismantling themselves.
If I didn’t know any better, it would almost look like it was planned that way. Part of a plan. Part of a “Trust the Plan” operation to dismantle the deep state. Nah, couldn’t be. Could it?
Wow! Promises Made, Promises Kept. Very Stable Genius indeed!
Indeed! WWG1WGA!
President Trump should put out a post like the Dos Equis memes:
“I don’t generally engage in unconventional warfare, but when I do, I bring my best friend with me.”
They look so bada$$ there!
Funny… All that talk right after the DNC about the new “joy” and energy of the Harris-Walz ticket, and flaunting new polls with her tied or leading… and the next day, the momentum shifts, and RFK Jr. and President Trump take the wind out of their sails and dominate the news cycle… Great timing! 🙂
Once again, the plan we all get glimpses of is (I believe) NOT VSGPDJT’s plan, although he certainly has plans, it certainly is NOT some plan by “military intelligence” ,…
It is GOD’s PLAN,…and yes it is coming togerher beautifully.
If it’s NOT by military intelligence, then why would he have Military Intelligence and JAG (Judge Advocate General) Officers standing right behind him during his 2016 Inaugural Address?
The timing was impeccable too. They came down and stood behind him right when he was saying this is not just another transfer of power from one administration to the next or from one party to the next. This is a transfer of power away from the establishment in DC and we are giving it back to you the people. It starts right here and right now.
Go look it up. I could post it here, but I’d rather send the search engines into a frenzy wondering why there’s an uptick in President Trump’s Inaugural Address searches.
God works in mysterious ways. Sometimes he can wake people up with a gentle nudge. Other times he pretty much has to slap them in the face or grab you by the…well you know, the thing!
Also, why would he create the Space Force when we already have too many military Branches? We are ending the forever wars and bringing our troops home. Why would we need to add another branch?
Why would SCOTUS recently make a ruling distinguishing the role of U.S. President is legally distinct from the role of Commander in Chief?
Why would SCOTUS recently make a ruling that distinguishes civilian courts as legally distinct from military courts?
Why would President Trump put SECDEF Miller in place just a few weeks before his “first term” was coming to an end?
Why would he elevate Special Forces to Command Level Equal to all other Military Branches and elevate Ezra Cohen-Watnick to lead that Dept just before his “first term” was coming to an end?
Was that all just God’s Plan without any earthly planning by patriotic men and women? They may be praying, patriotic Americans but earthly patriots none the less.
You said Unburden. 🤣
By natural law, light always overcomes darkness. CNN is the fullness of darkness….the complete absence of light. When you turn on a light, the darkness dissipates automatically. There is no war. It happens by natural law. It always wins.
All of evil conspires to shutter the light. They frantically scramble in covert darkness. They are afraid. They are overcome. They tremble with fear and are quick to extinguish the light.
Above, is one of the best examples of demonic censorship fully on display….in the light.
John 3:19: “ And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.”

My local radio station carried his speech for about 15 minutes and then cut him off when he started talking about the color revolution that our IC ran in 2014 to topple the Ukrainian government. It was at the top of the hour, but too convenient. Then Tom Sullivan immediately marginalized RFK, Jr. at the beginning of his show. Then Sullivan said “RFK Jr., of all people, should know that politics is a blood sport.”
He said that to a fellow whose father and uncle had been assasinated.
Yeah not a good look for CNN, but they willingly participated in the Democrat Party coup against demented, pedo Joe Biden during his debate with President Trump by being extraordinarily fair to President Trump in the debate! CNN was in on the coup and the early debate worked like a charm no matter how hard Joe tried to explain his horrible performance away because of his tiredness due to his world travels a week before! No one watches CNN unless President Trump is featured.
Trump is going to be on the Shawn Ryan show on Monday! I am really looking forward to it. Shawn is no youngster, nor is he a YouTube soy boy, it will be interesting to see how Trump does w/Shawn. I wish he were going to be at Shawn’s place and not in Vegas.
Shawn has done some really good podcasts with some really amazing guests–should be awesome!
Agree. I believe it was Kash Patel that made it happen. Like one day interviewing Trump is out of Shawn’s realm of possibilities and the next he is out in Vegas interviewing Trump. I hope it will be a totally unique and different Trump interview, and I hope Shawn will connect Trump w/Sarah Adams. She would be excellent in his admin. Trump needs to know what she knows.
100%!!! I read your post after I posted mine but I’d double down on DJT getting familiar with Adams.
The country needs to know what she knows.
I’ve listened to several of Shawn’s interview and found he interviews some of THE MOST intriguing people. I’d recommend anyone interested in the Middle East ad terrorism listen to his interview with Sarah Adams. She is a former CIA targeter. She seems to know all the players in the ME terrorism game.
She also knows we are being infiltrated by ME bad guys.
I found Shawn last summer when the Sound of Freedom was playing and Shawn interviewed Jim Caviezel. Slowly I have been watching all of them to catch up. Many times I cannot sleep after watching one of his shows. Some of them are just incredible. Sarah has to be on the Trump team. When she mentioned that the trifecta has joined forces and have embassies of their own version around the world I got some serious cold chills. Trump needs to know ISIS isn’t gone so he will quit saying it.
Anyway, Shawn is my new hero. I hope he finds peace and healing because he is certainly bringing it to millions of people.
How sad.
have they given them JEEPS now to ride in? They are made in Mexico and they are the cheapest product on the market. He is usually in a big huge Suburban.
None of the “Jeeps” you are seeing are made in Mexico.
Grand Cherokee and Wagoneer are certainly NOT the cheapest products on the market.
“Mack Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit, MI — assembles the Grand Cherokee L. Warren Truck Assembly Plant in Warren, MI — manufacturers the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer. Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Detroit, MI — manufacturers Jeep Grand Cherokees.

Kamala’s brother-in-law fleeced taxpayers for billions to give to left-wing groups and lawyers
If Kamala Harris wins the White House, her brother-in-law, Tony West, who is married to her sister Maya, is poised to claim the crooked crown.
Then, in 2009, Tony West took over the department’s Civil Division, the division that litigates and settles lawsuits.
Once West arrived, his deputy emailed colleagues asking “can you explain to Tony the best way to allocate some money toward an organization of our choosing?”
Settlements became the vehicle for paying off political allies.
Hunter Biden step aside.
A new “Big Guy” is coming to town. Kamala, with the help of Tony West and his cronies, will show you how Honest Graft is really done.

End of Hoaxes
“Kamala, you are supposed to drink AFTER the speech.” — Charlie Kirk, Turning Point USA
“The entire Democrat campaign will now be focused on gaslighting the country into believing Trump has been president for the last 4 years and Kamala has been an innocent bystander the whole time. They can’t run on her record, so they’re going to invent one and lie about it.” — Sean Davis, The Federalist
And now we hear — as I write early this Friday morning, hours before any official announcement — that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is about to suspend his campaign, kneecapped by the Democratic Party so busy “defending our democracy,” and perhaps throw his support to Donald Trump in order to defeat this mafia of the mentally ill. I hope he does that. And I hope he denounces the party of his ancestors in the most vividly opprobrious terms so that no one can misunderstand the gravity of what has been going on.
I’d also look forward to Mr. Kennedy playing an important role in the second Trump government. Mr. Kennedy knows probably better than anyone in America exactly how the gigantic racketeering operation was constructed that grafted pharma onto the US public health agencies, the FDA, CDC, NIAID, and others. This monster that has left so many Americans dead and injured, and wrecked the health of the nation’s young people especially, must be slayed. It must be disassembled and its pieces reconstructed into institutions that actually serve the public. This includes the hospital holding companies, the private equity pirates out to asset-strip medicine, the insurance-driven, overgrown doctors’ practices, and the mendacious medical boards, professional orgs, and journals that unjustly punished dissident doctors and nurses who tried to oppose the extralegal Covid-19 vaxx mandates.
Mr. Kennedy has the chance to elevate the argument against the now-debased party of his father and his uncle that has weirdly become a national wrecking crew. He has the ability to remind the voting public exactly what has gone wrong, in language that won’t be misunderstood or twisted, and to point a way back, with Mr. Trump, to being a country worth caring about.
Update Saturday: Mr. Kennedy did what I proposed he would do, and pretty much exactly as I predicted. He did it in a speech that was direct, heroic, and quite moving to behold. I hope he can now persuade Mr. Trump to directly address the fiasco of the Covid vaccine, and come clean about how he was hosed by Fauci, Birx, & Company back in 2020. I expect Mr. Kennedy to campaign on his own in venues apart from Mr. Trump and JD Vance, opening a kind of third front against the soulless Democratic Party.
https://jameshowardkunstler.substack.com/p/end-of-hoaxes
I’d like to see RFK Jr take Fauci’s old position at the NIH. Let him clean that quagmire.
I’d like to see the whole thing burned down (figuratively), and the earth salted where it stood.
NIH passes out $, for medical research, FDA regulates/ approves drugs, and CDC makes reccomendations to County and State Health Depts, USFDA regulates food production,..
But Medicare/Medicaid detirmines what medical care or treatments it will pay for, and under what conditions.
And, it was this compensation system for hospitals and ‘providers’ that was exploited the most, during Covid.
Its a major task, to try to reform the Fed. Gov. beurocracy that has evolved around medicine and health.
Recall amalgamating 17 different Fed. agencies under one “roof” after 9/11, was such a reformation, didn’t turn out too well.
The No Prisoners, End of the Road Election
“It’s all projection of their own bad desires, bad actions, personal afflictions to the point where the best way to tell what they plan to do is to see what they accuse others of.” — El Gato Malo on D
It’s fun to muse on the torrent of panicked, deranged texting between Democratic Convention delegates as a runaway train of malignant fates, bad choices, insane policies, delusional ideas, and feral emotion drives them to nominate a moron for president. The confusion and self-doubt must be epic. Are we really gonna do this? Is this really happening? You must imagine this is the same state of mind as, say, a car-full of drunken bridesmaids fishtailing down the highway at 70mph toward a telephone pole.
The mis-plays and subterfuges that brought them to this pass cannot be undone: the insult of letting “Joe Biden” front for a criminal blob government, the many hoaxes and the exorbitant lawfare lawlessness, the gross mismanagement of public affairs, wreckage of institutions, ruined economy, devalued dollar, destruction of households and communities, sexual lunacy and programmed mental illness — this is the party’s legacy. Are none among them even a little bit ashamed of the damage they’ve done to this nation? And maybe wondering about it between one another? Perhaps even anxious to make it stop?
It seems at this point that the brooding Matron of Chappaqua will never get her “turn” in the White House after all. It must gall Hillary to see history change her out for an equity hire with half a brain. Politics is a cruel business. You’ll see just how cruel the next time they try to whack Mr. Trump in this No Prisoners, End of the Road election campaign. It will almost certainly get crazier from here.

Lesson of RFK is how Democrats drive away their own voters
The withdrawal of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from the presidential race and his endorsement of former President Donald Trump was yet another extraordinary moment in an election that has been anything but predictable.
Only a year ago, it would have been unthinkable that a sitting president would be effectively forced off a ticket and replaced by a candidate who did not secure a single vote for president.
Now, the nephew of John F. Kennedy and son of the Robert F. Kennedy has not just withdrawn from the Democratic Party but endorsed the Republican nominee.
Amidst all of the claimed “joy” of the Democratic National Convention, there is a sobering reality that is being ignored by the ecstatic press and pundits: this is how Democrats make Republicans.
There is an old expression that “a conservative is a liberal who has been mugged.”
https://nypost.com/2024/08/24/opinion/what-rfk-jr-endorsement-means-for-the-democratic-party/
Why Democrats’ convention set them up to lose in November
On Night Three alone, the word “joy” was said 30 times by various speakers.
But that wasn’t close to the word uttered most from podium.
Instead, the gold medal goes to a name:
Trump.
Night One speakers somehow said it 160 times.
On Night Two, which featured Barack and Michelle Obama, Trump got a break; he name was broached only 60 times.
The number shot back up to 94 on Night Three.
And on the final night, Harris alone hit him 15 times.
https://nypost.com/2024/08/23/opinion/why-democrats-convention-set-them-up-to-lose-in-november/
“JOY” is not a policy for a presiential candidate to run on
Nor is Joy either a tactic or a strategy; its an admission that they got NOTHING.
No candidates, no policies that America wants.
Joy, thy name is Trump.
It’s déjà blue: The media is promoting Kamala Harris without substance – just like Obama in 2008
A year into Barack Obama’s presidency, Sarah Palin, a former Alaska governor and John McCain’s 2008 running mate, mockingly asked a Tea Party gathering a question: “How’s that hopey, changey stuff working out?”
The roomful of conservatives howled with laughter because by then, Obama’s dreamy campaign motto of “Hope and Change” had been replaced by hard policy lurches to the far left.
The Palin question is a piece of history 2024 voters should keep in mind as they assess Kamala Harris.
The parallels between then and now are striking.
Like Obama, the Democrats’ current nominee has been maddeningly elusive about what she would do as president.
Yet she is nonetheless riding a wave of enthusiasm that could carry her to the White House.
https://nypost.com/2024/08/24/opinion/kamala-harriss-coverage-from-the-media-is-deja-blue-to-barack-obamas-2008-campaign/
She has blue eyes??
That was Hitlary Clintons campaign theme as well ……….Forward with a big arrow pointing Forward
These Dummycrats have ZERO ideas
Same hogwash.
Today is my brothers birthday he is a diehard Democrat no matter how awful they are. I’m debating whether to call him or not, I haven’t heard from him in months. When my son died he never came to my house, he sent his wife and one daughter, he showed at the funeral services pre cremation. Our political views have driven us both apart.
I will decide after church if I want to call him. He never called me on my birthday so there is that.
Doing the right thing for the right reason(s) is never wrong. Make the call as a loving sibling. Let him stew in his pettiness and thoughtlessness.
Continue living your best life. God Bless you and yours.
“Moving forward” was one of those popular slogans that bothered me in their meaningless.
Local government officials where always talking about preparing to move into the 21st century and other silliness. Time marches on without the government.

Couple of Incredible, Amazing and Powerful Endorsements for President Trump
haha!!
Love it!
RFK Jr.’s day
RFK Jr. prayed for the opportunity to be able to do what he is going to do in the Trump administration.
It’s a good thing that he recognized where he could best be of service.
Deep State
It’s a Good One (and up to date)
They didn’t hold anything back w/that one. Not even funny, but tells it.
Best one ever.
Extremely well done!
Maybe this endorsement will wake up average Democrats, party line voters who vote without thought……to the fact that their party has become a sick psycho perversion in order to steal true democracy.
My view is the average Democrat voter is “lost”, they have been trained to be afraid for so long, they beg for father Government to take care of all of their needs and wants. 30% of the country is stuck in this mentality.
We need the 20% of family-focused libertarians who self-identify as Democrats because they love freedom and independence. We need to convince those that Democrat has morphed into the party of speech oppression, authoritarian lockdowns, and family-tearing-DEI policies. They use the IC to make the media label anything they don’t like “misinformation” while creating endless wars and entrapping citizens into evil acts, all in the name of “saving democracy” that is actually a fascist mess of financial corporatism and too-big-to-fail regulated oligopolies (controlled competition, not free trade).
Well said PS !!!
not my brother or my neighbor across the street. Neighbor was a Bernie fan, he never put up Biden but he has put up flags against Trump. My yard is covered in Trump signs and flags.
and yes many are still on the plantation….especially the 60 and up group. They still think of “Camelot” which was a lie.
i am very surprised at the number of “camelot-ists”, too, WVG,
even among those who were not of an age to remember that time.
the myth has been so carefully nurtured and relentlessly perpetuated
that it carries forward to this day.
whenever you hear “JFK would be a republican today”,
it’s quite certain that person has only read and believes the fable peddled by the media and the kennedy family.
the facts of the Bay of Pigs, the real story of PT-109, the misogyny, the drugs,
the unsavory characters associated with JFK’s time in office differ greatly from the carefully constructed (fake) narrative.
however, that was JFK, but herein lies the problem –
rfk jr. has his own list of misdeeds which rival, or maybe even surpass, his uncle’s.
to paraphrase a famous movie line “i do not think they know what rfk jr. really means.”
however, i truly hope my cynicism of rfk jr. is proven unwarranted, rather than an opportunity to say i told you so.
rfk jr. can potentially do a lot of good for this country, and if he does, he will go a long way towards rehabilitating his and his families’ image.
but no fairy tale goggles, please.
if he does the job he’s hired to do, i’m good, and grateful.
but step outta line, the man comes and takes you away…. ✌🏻
“Maybe this endorsement will wake up average Democrats.”
My sister is one and still voting for Willie Brown’s Mattress. Leopards don’t change their spots and Democrats don’t leave the plantation.
“,…and Democrats don’t leave the plantation.”
Youtube deleted 10’s of 1000’s of Democrats publically doing just that, BECAUSE those videos destroyed the myth, that “Democrats don’t leave rhe plantation”.
Of COARSE they do; 6 DEM State Legislators, from various States (most recently California) have publically announced switching parties, along with the Mayor of Dallas Texas, Reagan, Trump and many “starch Conservatives” started out as Dems, Tucker, Dr. Malone, Dr. Wolfe, Jimmy Dore, Dr. Drew, Neil Oliver is just the start of a long, long list of Dems the party left behind.
This new Marxist, not yer grandaddys Dem party has be shucking whole segments of its former “base” with glee.
First the Straka “walk-aways”,..the “Conservative Democrats”, and Blacks, Hispanics and now it seems like the schitzophrenic responce of the party has it losing both Jews and Muslims,…lol.
And I don’t see any indications the party leadership have any interest in trying to stem their losses.
It does appear the party is all in on putting its future fate on the illegals, along with the ever smaller diehards marxists.
Yang is all over the place. I wonder what he even thinks he is doing.
He should have gotten on the Trump train but no, he threw in his lot with the commies.
Dumb dumb dumb.
Telegram founder Pavel Durov arrested in France, reports say
Pavel Durov, the billionaire founder of encrypted messaging app Telegram, has been arrested in France, according to local reports.
The 39-year-old tech chief was reportedly detained after his private jet landed at Le Bourget airport on the outskirts of Paris.
News broadcasters BFMTV and TF1 have quoted unnamed sources as saying the Russian-born entrepreneur – who became a French citizen in 2021 – was the subject of a search warrant.
Both outlets suggest the investigation was focused on a lack of moderators on Telegram and potential criminal activity by users.

Very peculiar and curious.
Tucker interview
.
I’d like this better if the guy were a patriotic American who actually gaveash about this country rather than his billions of dollars. But he’s not. (Can you move to Dubai too, or purchase citizenship in multiple other countries, if it gets too crappy here?)
.
What’s your beef with Durov?
You made it quite clear last night on the topical post about him that you thought that there should not be encryption on comms devices so governments can monitor ‘bad actors.’
Too much truth coming out of Ukraine and Gaza for you?
.
How could I have made that “clear” when I don’t believe that. There are many good reasons to have encryption that I can think of, especially to protect against hacking. What I am questioning — questioning — is a system that prevents law enforcement with actual probable cause for a search warrant from obtaining information.
The Deep State may suck, and governments may become corrupt, but I still believe in the social contract, a theory that perhaps applies best re the United States: that when we voluntarily form governments “of the people” we do so first and foremost to collectively protect against bad actors from criminals to would-be dictators, monarchs, strong men (and other nefarious organizations such as cartels) that we could not individually protect ourselves against. Why we have criminal laws, border laws, and so forth.
I don’t have a “beef” with Durov so much as I recognize that he has absolutely no reason to care what happens to any particular country, notably the U.S. This young WEF globalist techie is not an American; he has or has had citizenship in and/or residences in: USSR/Russia, UAE, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Berlin/Germany, EU/France… He professes to believe in people having “no possessions” (so why the need to protect assets, trade secrets via encryption?) yet keeps enormous sums in Swiss banks. One of his first communications forays helped facilitate Maidan uprising.
I am asking: why is everyone jumping on this individual’s bandwagon.
.
.
Meanwhile, virtually all of the so-called privacy advocates here think through none of the issues in any nuanced way, and not one thoughtlessly typing away on their cell-phone equivalent of a parolee tracking device bothered to respond to my sincere request for a list of legitimate needs for encryption that could be lobbied into protective laws.
.
Who said encryption prevents a legitimate search warrant from being exercised?? It doesn’t.
Encryption keeps the IC from looking for a reason to target someone over their beliefs or legitimate opposition to government policy and then looking for any excuse to destroy the target.
And I don’t think everyone is that big of a fan of Durov so much, but what his arrest signifies, which is the owner of a service that provides security (4th A protections) being targeted because he won’t censor views unfavorable or governments, as SD pointed out last night in his topical post.
Why is Elon not targeted? Oh, that’s right, he aquieces to the IC. 👀
By Pavel telling the world that the engineer he brought to the US was approached by the FBI to enable a back door entrance into Telegram he sort of drew a big target on that poor engineer for the FBI. Let’s pretend he didn’t do that!
But they didn’t arrest the engineer in question in and from the US, did they?
And had absolutely nothing to do with my point..
Do you know for a fact that the FBI or another 3 letter agency hasn’t messed with that engineer already or won’t in the future?
It has ALREADY got too crappy here.
Let Pavel live where he wants.
You get to choose whether to use his product or not.
He is Russian with French nationality. Stop being such an idiot.
Benz is another one I would like to see by Trump’s side. I am going to go on a wild guess and agree w/him, it was the State the did it.

This reminds me of 1968, after the election . . .
my Mom and Dad and grandparents and we kids were thinking about the incredible event of Richard Nixon getting elected as President as we all remembered 1960 so well when he lost the Presidential election and then later lost another election in 1962 (against Brown in our Gubernatorial election) and said, “you won’t have Dick Nixon to kick around anymore” . . . supposedly he was a dead duck in the political world and that was that . . .
so now Richard Nixon was the President-elect . . .
what became a family story was that my grandparents (Mom’s parents) were die-hard Democrats . . . very strong union supporters (my grandfather was in the Typographical Union), neither would ever cross a picket line even at the grocery store, Grandma had voted Democrat ever since women got the vote and she and her mother and sister all voted for Al Smith while her dad and brothers voted Republican . . .
but in 1968, my diehard Democratic grandparents both voted for Richard Nixon
and also in 1968, my Dad, joined a union . . . he had been in the aerospace industry, producing cable for the umbilical cord for the gantry for the Saturn launching missile and the underground work for Cape Canaveral and also did work at Vandenberg AFB, he was in “management” for many years, as the President of his company, which was now winding down . . . he was never a “union guy” . . . but he also liked to sit in with his clarinet at a local bar he patronized, with the other guys playing there in a little combo . . . he was told he needed to join the Musicians Union (local no. 47), so apparently he had and he proudly flashed his card to my grandfather . . .
It was one of those “I never thought I would see the day” days. It was good.
Anybody read this guy? Stuff like this worries me. Thoughts?

QUESTION: What do you think about the Democratic Convention?
DS
ANSWER: It was just a hate fest. They said Trump’s name 329 times. There was nothing about the future that embraced everyone. It is always just our way or no way. I think the song Good Riddance (Time of Your ) will be the epitaph of our political division.
This is the Neocons in control of the Democrats. Harris never won a single delegate in the primary against Biden. The Democrats shut down any primary, and the people, for the FIRST TIME in history, had no right to vote for their candidate. The media is just propaganda, and this whole thing will only prove our computer’s forecast to be correct – 2024 may be the last election we ever have. They have completely trashed our rule of law. Even RFK has recognized this as the Necons, in full control of the Biden White House, have weaponized the legal system to the point all I hear from overseas is how the United States is collapsing.
The reason RFK joined Trump is because they are BOTH anti-war and BOTH are fully aware of the agenda of the Neocons. I fear that the only way they can defeat our computer is to assassinate Trump still, or they must start World War III before he takes the White House. We are living in the end days of the United States.
(Martin Armstrong, Armstrong Economics)
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/politics/rnc-vs-dnc/
I haven’t read Armstrong before, but I have heard that sentiment echoed elsewhere from voices outside the U.S.. The common consensus is that the destruction we are living through and foreigners are observing is purposeful and directed from within our own government. It’s a reiteration of what Sundance frequently highlights that Build Back Better requires the old paradigm to be destroyed first so the that the rebuilding can begin encapsulating the Masonic motto of Order out of Chaos: The New World Order of the WEF.
Martin Armstrong is certainly a fascinating person.
His computer models show Trump at a historical high of 59 to 60 percent support (maybe only three other presidential campaigns were higher) and should win in landslide.
However, he has concerns because he does not see any way they will let him win. That is where his personal fears come into play. He personally predicted (not computer model) before Butler PA that if the election became too big to rig they would assassinate him. If they don’t succeed with that he thinks the only way they could possibly cheat to steal it would be to use ballots from the millions of non citizens (and illegal aliens).
He did a lengthy interview recently. The election stuff starts around the 17:00 minute mark (about 10 minutes of discussion).

I would not be surprised if there have been private discussions about staging a an attempted assassination on Kamala in the vein of the Gretchen Whitmer “kidnapping.”
The “kidnappers” would be the ones having to pay for anyone to take her back.
ala “The Ransom of Red Chief” by O. Henry . . .
I grew up reading all of the O. Henry stories and loved them immensely . . . all of his stories and Aesop’s Fables.
Quite recently, I realized I had not read his novel “Cabbages and Kings” and so bought it from Amazon and read it on my Kindle. Written in 1904, I think O. Henry originated the term “banana republic”. The book was characterized as a “fix up” novel, loosely connected stories; it seemed to me that it was actually rather ahead of its time.
This is the link to the Wikipedia page about the book in case you would like to know more:
Cabbages and Kings (novel) – Wikipedia
Yes, I utilize Amazon which is so convenient for us, including using my Kindle with all kinds of books – and I use Wikipedia to look up things like the elevation of a mountain or snowfall in Vermont.
If he likes the ideas so much then he should just shut up and vote for President Trump.

Thing is, though, if his extraordinarily lucrative encrypted app is used to activate hundreds of murderous terrorist cells that slunk through the U.S. southern border, he won’t care much as he relaxes in his nice digs in Dubai.

Thing is though, those same ‘terrorists’ can use Tik Tok and a variety of other encrypted systems to do the same thing, or unencrypted apps using code language ad they have before like Twitter and the color revolutions.
So, why Telegram?
Surely it doesn’t have to do with truth getting out on Ukraine and Gaza would it? 👀
Exactly. Those terrorists or criminals or sex traffickers can use messenger pigeons with paper messages so I guess we’d better ban paper and pigeons.
When does the banning end, once it is started?
And where does the Govt. intrusion end?
They SO WANT to have mind control, and apperently with the individual (mk ultra) and collectively with msm propoganda, they have achieved it to a degree.
The above argument, if terrorists using an encrytped app, therefore the Govt. should be able to look, all in the interests of our safety, is the epitome of that founders quote, about giving up liberty for security.

I’m not keen on TikTok either. But there’s also a difference between encryption to prevent against hacking in transit, and an internet encryption technology — unknown in the world until recently — that allows completely blocked communication to massive numbers of anonymous people, in a way that cannot be accomplished with alternative encryptions and coded messages sent to specific people. (Belle, below, who continuously bashes Israel in favor of “the Palestinians” would have you believe that carrier pigeons and paper can do similarly.)
.
You just exposed yourself.
You’re advocating for government being able to censor.
Everyone can see the message in your example. Why should the government be able to block (censor) it? If a crime is being described, warrants can be issued. So that argument is BS.
Telegram was not targeted by the US Government like Tik Tok in the recent attempts to ban encrypted communications in the US.
But all of a sudden, Telegram is an issue?
An issue for whom?
You just answered that question. Israel can’t break the encryption to keep the images and truth from coming out to the world, no matter which side is right or wrong, and can’t control the narrative.
And that’s a problem for them, and apparently you.
Pavel cares so much about protecting privacy that he lets the world know that the engineer he brought with him was approached by the FBI. Now the FBI knows the engineer told on them. Pavel didn’t have to claim that but Pavel has to virtue signal. Nice guy!

believe me, they aren’t using THAT app.
The governments don’t care about the terrorist, child molesters, drug dealers, human traffickers, arms traffickers and money launderers, they may not like the competition but that’s not their main concern. Their main concern is citizens communicating free and open thoughts with one another. The government can not control the the agenda if it can not control that narrative. It can not control the masses if the masses are free to openly exchange ideas amongst themselves.
.
The jihadists who want a world caliphate love this opinion. For me, bad as individuals in it may be at times, I’d rather deal with trying to root out corruption in our constitutional government.
.
England has shown what happens when the citizens have no voice. Citizens are imprisoned for speaking up against the government that allows the stabbing and killing of their children, the raping of their women and little girls.
The same kind of people cut off communications for the people of Maui during and after the August 8, 2023 fires – so these citizens could not communicate with family members in the Islands or on the Mainland, to let loved ones know they survived, they couldn’t call their mortgage lenders or insurance companies.
Someone from the Mainland worked with Elon Musk to get quite a few of his satellite phones/Internet Access set-ups with mobile panels shipped quickly to Maui . . . we watched Eric West quite a lot already on his youtube channel (hawaiirealestate) where he went around on his one-wheel, showing real estate and so watched as he and others were dealing with the aftermath of the fires.
Eric got a hold of one of those systems from Elon Musk and drove around Maui, stopping at corners where others could see it and pull over to make their connections to families, banks, mortgage companies and insurance companies.
Eric gave the whole setup to a doctor passing by who was desperate to access the Internet for prescriptions for her patients . . . then he was able to get more kits from the Mainland person. “God bless Elon Musk” was the phrase we kept hearing!
One nice big batch of these set-ups got redirected to the other side of the island to a Home Depot, supposedly – not where they were needed right then by the fire survivors.
So, why did TPTB make it so difficult to citizens on Maui to communicate?
Thing is Telegraph or not; the Biden administration is responsible for this invasion, PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Isn’t that a poor analogy? I would think that if Ford designed a car that was invisible to radar, no VIN numbers and had revolving license plates and it was used in a hit and run and escaped law enforcement, it would be more akin to what is being claimed by France.
I have mixed feelings about this.
Big hypothetical and fantastical “if.”
What about the other example in that link, arresting the CEO of Apple if a criminal uses Apple to do a crime?
So, cars cause hit and runs not people. It’s the same argument used for gun control. That’s the analogy. It’s always about the government and your security.
Perzactly
“Whoosh!” … right over your head! Cars don’t give live birth … PEOPLE build them. The PEOPLE who built the car in my analogy are responsible.
Partially agree and disagree…
What if the people that built it, built it solely for a closed set movie. Then someone takes it off set and does nefarious things with it. Should the people who built it be held liable for the actions of others?
Now, if the people that built it did so with the intent of using it for nefarious activity, then I can get on board with them also being held responsible in some manner.
.
Bad analogy. Better (strained) analogy: the Ford car was leased from Ford, which immediately took possession of it on the orders of the CEO, who refused to disclose the operator and also wouldn’t let law enforcement investigators examine it for evidence.
,
Better analogy than mine which is better than the original one. If James Bond ran over an illegal alien henchman and escaped in his Aston Martin DB5 without stopping to assist the victim, would MI6 be responsible if JB used his revolving license plate to make his getaway?
Too tired for analogies.
Brain fog.

Markowski advised investors not to panic when it comes to their portfolios and avoid attempting to time the market. When Americans hit slow times, they can cut back on what they do not need and come out stronger due to their new efficiencies.
David Peters, from Peters Tax Preparation & Consulting PC, said Americans must look at their spending to prepare for a potential recession, must not stop saving for retirement, and try not to take out large loans.

Answering These Questions May Unlock The Trump Crime Scene
By Peak Prosperity

https://rumble.com/v5c4nro-answering-these-questions-may-unlock-the-trump-crime-scene.html
It’s important that we get to the bottom of the Trump assassination attempt. The near-total silence from the FBI and the Secret Service about the many lines of inquiry and necessary bits of evidence reeks of a cover-up. By answering these three basic questions, we believe the crime scene may finally give up its secrets.
Check out the tweet below. It shows a 2020 Presidential Electoral map. This Electoral map shows President Trump winning 410 to 128.
Is this what President Trump meant when he said he won the 2020 Presidential Election in an overwhelming landslide? These numbers would certainly match the rally crowd sizes.
Was this whole thing a sting operation to dismantle the deep state?
Is that why he was seen on video saying, “Paper Ballots. Paper Ballots are all watermarked. Paper is actually high tech.”
Is that why he put in place Executive Order 13848 on Election Interference on Sept 12, 2018, before any elections during his tenure as POTUS?
Is that why he claims, “We caught them all. We caught the swamp. No one else could have done that. Let’s see what happens.”
Is that why he now says, “Once back in office we will dismantle the rest of the deep state.” Using the term “rest of” implies portions of the deep state are already dismantled.
Is he saying “Let’s see what happens” because he knows what’s going to happen and may very well already be happening?

Winning by a landslide is irrelevant under our current system.
And don’t anybody come slamming at me that my observation is defeatist or negative. It’s an observation of present reality. If you think it is defeatist or negative, you are still pretending–and that’s a bigger problem than my factual observation.
“Reality is hard”..
Yes, I completely agree. Winning by a landslide is in fact irrelevant in our current system.
That’s the whole reason President Trump ran in the first place. He ran to replace the current system. “Our system” is completely corrupt. President Trump and his team of warriors’ mission is to dismantle the completely corrupt system and replace it with a new government run by We the People.
I’ll provide the exact quote from his OCT 2016 speech. Here it is:
“Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt — now, when I say “corrupt,” I’m talking about totally corrupt — political establishment, with a new government controlled by you, the American people.”
Based on then citizen Donald J. Trump’s own words, I would guess he would completely agree with your statement.
Yes, no, no, and no.
I met Baris more than a decade ago on a left wing petition site where we commiserated over the lefty a-h013s, and began following him on social media. I also turned others onto him. He’s come a long way since then. 😉
Post-Democratic Convention State of the Race | Inside The Numbers Ep. 515

This was posted by another treeper at 11:44 a.m. yesterday. There were no upvotes and no replies. I’ve read this numerous times, went back to the PT-introduces-Kennedy rally, then back to the quote. Would it NOT apply to PT because Kennedy remains on ballots as a candidate? This is something that the media could twist around or, worse, lawfare.
“Isn’t this illegal?
18 U.S. Code § 599 – Promise of appointment by candidate
Whoever, being a candidate, directly or indirectly promises or pledges the appointment, or the use of his influence or support for the appointment of any person to any public or private position or employment, for the purpose of procuring support in his candidacy shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if the violation was willful, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”
Whether it’s illegal or legal or somewhere in-between, you can bet your breakfast coffee and donut that there’s a vile group of G-D Commie dem politicians and operatives who are probably RIGHT NOW stirring their steaming cauldron of LAWFARE to summon up spells of misery, suffering, lawless, chaos and DEATH to cast upon PDJT and ‘Bobby’.
Yes it is illegal and the MSM was trying hard to make it look as if Trump or RFK or both were guilty of this.
As if RFK Jr. needed a job when he already has one.
Possibly that was something Kennedy was mulling over, and perhaps he remained on the ballots in some states to work around it.
He is an attorney, he must have considered this.
I was really worried about this being some trick by the slimy democrats. I hope it doesn’t materialize.

To me, “Project 2025” has all of the hallmarks of a poorly-conceived and executed “psy op.” It doesn’t really propose anything that can be done. But it tries to “push your buttons.” And, it may appeal to someone with preconceived notions who doesn’t bother to examine it carefully. Really, it’s just noise.
And, they very badly want to attach it to you-know-who …

The Department of Homeland Security put out its Information Technology Strategic Plan for 2024-2028. Guess what @DHSgov’s #1 goal is… It’s not to protect America and it’s not to advance our capabilities to beat our enemies. Nope. Their #1 stated goal is advancing DEI. Insane.

The Latin word “DEI” translates to “the gods.”
Hence, their #1 stated goal is advancing the gods.
Climate Change is not going to like being pushed out for this new kid on the block.
Well they sure got the diversity part right since they have already imported at least 10 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS into our country. And lost them.
Inclusion, well to those illegals they gave away our cities, our social security and medicare, our hotels, our schools, our parks, our community centers, and everything in between.
Equity, well next they plan to give them houses with “free” $25k down payments.
Working their mission.
They convinced so many that “diversity” was a desirable and even necessary thing.
Nobody ever thought to question the whole concept.
