In recent days the Washington Post, Tampa Tribune, USA Today and LA Times have refused to endorse President Obama’s selected and chosen installed candidate, Kamala Harris. Against this backdrop, former President Obama has delivered some of his most toxic and divisive speeches and pronouncements to date.
From his high-horse, Obama has scolded black men for refusing to accept his appointed replacement and relied on angry ridiculing messaging in his last desperate attempts to remain relevant. Big Mike has joined in the proclamations of fear, targeting her Alinsky approach toward bitter, white suburban women.
Internationally, the French parliamentary elections rebuked President Emmanuel Macron, the recent Georgia referendum was overwhelmingly against the NATO agenda. The Hungarian people are pushing back against EU/NATO demands for more bloodshed in Ukraine, while Serbia, Slovenia and Montenegro refuse to antagonize Putin.
As the BRICS+ coalition gains influence, Argentina and El Salvador shift away from the agenda of the World Economic Forum. The Western alliance is now dependent on Australia and Great Britain to advance the Build Back Better agenda as Germany and other industrialized nations continue suffering economic contraction as an outcome of their energy compliance program, an economic suicide mission.
While quietly benefiting from a tenuous background alignment with Russia, Turkey has positioned itself as Erdoğan always does, for itself and only for itself. As an outcome of international financial processes intended to punish Vladimir Putin, Russia has entirely divested itself from western financial influence. After a modicum of moderate angst in the decoupling, Russia is thriving. The Chinese industrial base now benefits from a closer economic alliance with Moscow.
In the biggest of the big pictures, U.S influence across the globe has significantly diminished. The dollar-based geopolitical elephant is slowly being chewed down to size, one bite at a time.

At a population level, the influence of the World Economic Forum group is much less favorable to their agenda. The WEF is now an echo chamber, filled with finance emissaries promising each other that all will be ok. Individually, they all admit – things are not okay, but they keep up pretenses because BBB was always zero-sum; they have no other option.
Americans are not yet aware how much all of this collapsing Biden/Harris policy is costing us, but they know something is wrong. No where else in the world have food prices risen as high and as fast, as they have within the borders of the USA; it’s not even close. The next highest-priced western food market is somewhere around 50% less than the U.S. The American people will soon discover this fundamental truth and start to ask questions.
Even with EU energy price increases, the overall inflation rate has hit the American public harder than any other nation. The combination of monetary policy, energy policy and a lowered dollar value delivers consequences to the USA that no other nation feels with the same intensity. That really is the cause of the issue. The people within Washington DC are trying hard to keep playing musical chairs, but we can all see their eyes glancing toward the exits each time the music pauses.

Into this dynamic, the USA election is now just a week away.
No one is sure whether President Trump’s strategic economic and geopolitical policies can rapidly change the dynamic for America, but the eyes of the world are watching to see how the American public vote. Billions of non-Americans will be watching the election, hoping, cheering for a great recovery.
Across the globe in every coffee shop and cafe’ you will find people curious to ask what has happened to America.
There is no anger, friction or conflict in their eyes as they ask the question, just simple and honest curiosity, “what has happened?”
It’s almost an impossible question to answer in a short time, but when you talk to the curious eyes about political corruption as a spider monkey, they seem to understand the next part of the metaphor…. well, Obama was King Kong. What follows next is {{{ Silence }}} then, big eyes as the understanding connects to the facial expressions.
Believe me, they will all be watching next Tuesday.

Had this conversation with a few of my European friends late last Spring. They gave me their perception of what was happening here politically and economically. They were spot-on! People all around the globe see “IT”! And…they are truly rooting for us! Pray hard and Buckle Up!!
For myself, as I have said so often, despite a university degree, my education did not begin until I moved abroad.
Oh what an awakening!!
Through the eyes of others who could see the trees because they did not live in the forest as I had all my life…and because of their blunt assessments… I started to experience my own awakening. To the world in general and to my homeland specifically.
What an incredible gift it was for me to “see ourselves [the United States] as others see us.” (Hat tip: Rabbie Burns)
Edifying and embarrassing at the same time.
I sense there is a reckoning coming to those here and within the much detested WEF, both which showed their hands so that we are all experiencing an unpalatable appetizer before the main wretched meal that they still intend to serve.
I pray I am not wrong; because with a victory here, I have a sense that in (hopefully short) order other populations in benighted Western countries will be emboldened to finally say, “Enough” as well…and start to right their own ships. To not do so paints a picture too horrid to contemplate.
God be with us..and the man we, and I believe He, have chosen to at least begin to accomplish this daunting, historical project 🙏🏻
Amen!
Right there with you Betsy..👍..watching American founding principles slowly drift away.. I was really getting down.. with Trump I am getting more positive everyday..🙏👍..😘
🇺🇸💪😀👍
Good afternoon, Mr Jim 💕 I hope you listened to his press conference today.
It was so moving. I’ve never seen him show how deeply he feels about the challenge he has taken on. He understands that the people he loves are in deep trouble if he doesn’t win. I don’t believe it is possible to love this man more than I do right now. His heart was on full display today. The only one living today who is manifestly fit to serve as President of our America.
With God’s mercies he will begin to right the grievous wrongs of the last four years, dear sir.
Hope is a precious commodity. Hang on to it with every fibre of your being 🙏🏻
Hi Betsy,
I caught the presser this AM and while I don’t catch many. I felt this one important, given the later hour(s). I concur it was moving, and I was not disappointed. Straightforward and true.
I particularly supported his position on illegal aliens and newly proposed penalties, for causing the death of American citizens. I have never seen such an iron will or resolve.
There was something there, reed, which as many times as I’ve listened to him I have never seen before.
I’m not sure how to define it. At first he seemed tired to me, but perhaps I was mistaking that for an overwhelming sense I know he has for what’s at stake come November. Not for himself, but for those whose lives have been destroyed in one way or another by the most vile, self serving, Stalin-like administration in our history.
Betsy – thank you for another thoughtful, and truthful, post! I, too, pray for a reckoning but am not sure exactly who it is that God intends to bring to the end of themselves…trying to be prayerful and prepared either way it goes!
Along those lines, I just listened to Tucker Carlson’s latest interview, with very Left leaning comedian Jimmy Dore, and I must admit that I found it to be absolutely fascinating, for MANY reasons, not the least of which is how many times they reiterate that the Uniparty ALWAYS goes after people who tell the truth, no matter which side of the aisle they are on!
It’s just under two hours long but I would be very interested to know what others here in the Treehouse thought of it, especially the end, where Carlson expresses his (I think, legitimate) concerns about what will happen if the elites are actually faced with the loss of their power!
https://tuckercarlson.com/tucker-show-jimmy-dore
I watched it last night VM, and was thoroughly fascinated! Several times I had to rewind a few minutes because I was distracted and realized that Dore or Tucker had just been talking more “red meat” that I HAD to hear.. I also downloaded a copy of the transcript from TCN.
I’m so glad to hear that others had the same reaction to it that I did! I have a family member that went ALL IN on the C0v1d scam, to the point that he cut off all contact with us for almost a year, but I know that he watched and liked Jimmy Dore in the past, so I am considering asking him if he will watch this, with an open mind. Maybe hearing things from another Leftist will open his eyes in a way that hearing them from us has only steeled his resolve to cling to the lies even harder.
Lots of “influencers” coming to Jesus. I think we might have turned the corner. Praying.
I watched the entire Jimmy Dore/Tucker Carlson conversation.
That we all CAN watch it and hear it is the first triumph. Excellent dose of the brutal truth !
We are on the threshold of a massive change.
I am no fan of Jeff Bezos but he wrote this line in his WAPO opinion piece:
“Reality always wins.”
Even the brutal tyranny of the Soviet Union could not continue its fraud forever.
At some point, a turd cannot be polished, painted or given an attractive fragrance.
One thing Bezos acknowledged is there are too many ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF INFORMATION NOW for the old media to be trusted. He admitted the old media is NOT trusted anymore.
We’re advised in the Bible to be prepared, sis, to keep our lamps filled because we never know the minute or the day of Jesus’ return.
I think we are well advised to be constantly watchful for this glorious and much anticipated, awe-some promise to be fulfilled.
But I also believe that we must be prepared during these fretful and worrisome days within ourselves for the possibility that God’s plan and will may not align with ours, the one which with almost painful hope we pray for so fervently. And put on our armour so we can withstand whatever comes if it does not. That’s all any of us can do.
I’m finding doing this one of the hardest things I have ever done, knowing that dark forces are arrayed against this reckoning which to my eye creeps ever closer. The anger and frustration of people across Western civilization is growing daily as I think world “elites” sense their time to accomplish their manifestly evil agenda is growing shorter each day. That’s just my feeling…
Faced with a loss of power, I honestly believe the DC criminal syndicate will give the order to “Burn it all down”. We’ve already lived a preview of what they will no doubt inflict. I am basing this on the fact that they can’t hide their anxiety and fear, obvious from their hysterical rhetoric which escalates to madness more and more each day.
People like that aren’t rational and are capable of anything.
All the more reason to put on that armour. Testing times begin in earnest.
I will watch your link, mom, and I thank you 😘👍🏻
You and I are in the same place, Bets…we know that God is “good” but we also accept that He does allow things, in the here and now, that are NOT good (from our perspective) in order to accomplish His long term plans, which, we will eventually see as far better than what they appeared to be as we walked through them!
The battles that we are facing now are spiritual, above all else, and more and more people seem to be waking up to that reality. We do not know what the future holds but we do know Who holds the future – and on the days when the world seems extra dark, we must cling to the light of that truth!!
I will be very curious to hear your opinion on this interview!
“He does allow things, in the here and now, that are NOT good”
God allowed the stolen election of 2020. Because the election was stolen, there was a war in Ukraine, with 800,000 dead Ukrainian men and maybe 50,000-100,ooo dead Russian soldiers. Ukraine was destroyed. If the election wasn’t stolen, I doubt these men would be dead. I don’t know how to process all this, but God has a future vision that escapes us all.
He absolutely does allow things that are not good, in this world, or in our finite minds. It has always been, and remains today, one of the main reasons that many people refuse to follow Him, because His ways and His plans are “higher” (less attainable to our limited understanding) than ours.
I wish I had a great and easily understood explanation for why this is, but if I did, it would not require faith and the Bible clearly states, “that without faith it is impossible to please God.”
Do I like it? In my flesh, emphatically no, I do not like it at all! But just like Job at the end of his ordeal, I have come to the conclusion that I am speaking about things that are too magnificent for me to understand. When I get to Heaven, it’s either all going to make sense or it isn’t going to matter and either way, that has to be enough for me to rest in, in the here and now!
You attribute to “God” what you know as a human which makes “him” like you. Failure to understand is the necessary outcome of anthropomorphizing the deity. You imply God thinks, he doesn’t; he creates. You imply God is, he’s not; he is eternal. That which is eternal has no particularity whatsoever, in truth, meaning each particular thing, any manifestation, any relative thing displays, from the standpoint of the ultimate reality, his immanence. We might be sparks of the divine but mere sparks only. Bad things happen, yes, God, having no agency as sentient life forms understand it, does not allow that. Its closer to the truth that he created the world and then withdrew in order to make room for the creation to unfold. This unfoldment might be contemplated but it is nevertheless outside the bounds of knowledge, which is where faith begins and where humility yields. It’s written “I am that I am”. Spend your life contemplating that if you would draw nigh to God, as James wrote, and he will draw night to you.
Honestly not sure if you’re agreeing with me, arguing with me, or just trying to use as many multisyllabic words as you possibly can to impress and or confuse people, but whatever!
I said what I said and I stand by it and my reading of the Bible in its entirety validates it, so there you go!
And clearly, your statement that God created the world and then “withdrew” from it makes you a deist and not a Christian, so we’re probably going to look at things very differently just based on that worldview.
we call Him ‘Abba’
God has a name, it is Yaweh or Jehovah, according to the bible.
Indeed, man was created in His image.
I would refer you to Proverbs 8:22-36 for an inspired description of the Creator and the creation of the first born son and the world.
Wisdom is not a fourth divine person, but an attribute of God that is given expression in creation as well as redemption. In this chapter, wisdom is personified for poetic effect. The attributes of God are eternal, so the figure of wisdom is said to be from “the beginning.”
58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.”
That got me right in the heart.
Thanks for your post VM.
Im in a place, I need to, have to, think the same way. What I have been through in the last 2 years, makes no sense to me.
But in the end, as you say, it just has to be enough for me to rest in, as well. The here and now.
It isnt all rosy and sunshine and flowers, in fact my life is in shambles, but as I know, God loves me, and whatever his reason for saving me and then putting me into my most trying times, there has to be a grand plan and mission for it.
Ill stick around to find out, and fight, fight fight!!
Bob – I am thankful if anything I said lightened your heart, which has clearly been weighed down by pain and grief that most of us could never imagine!
Thank you for your courage and your willingness to be vulnerable about your struggles – this is a wonderful place to find people who will lift you up, as we all try to keep pointing each other to that which we know to be Truth, even when we simply do not understand it at all!!
“LORD, I believe; help my unbelief!” Mark 9:24
Very powerful Scripture, sis.
There is so much in those few prayerful words, I wouldn’t know where to start.
VM, I said basically the same thing in another thread this morning including being university educated. However, to read your effective writings makes all the difference, all the comradery, all the inspiration I didn’t know I’d welcome. Thank you . . . Jan
I forgot to credit Betsy also. My apologies.
Well William, everyday, I wake up, is something that doctors told me wasn’t going to happen.
In that context, God has a plan for me. I should not even be here. I was on deaths door, Stage 4 cancer. He, the Almighty, decided it is not time for me to come into his arms. My doctors are still to this day, astonished I survived that. Im 1 in 75,000 human beings, to beat that type of cancer, that advanced.
In fact, I just walked through the door, coming from the Cancer Center for my 5 month check up. Im still in remission! So that is good!! God is good, right? I am smiling right now, as wide as I can smile, even though, I am being put through hell on earth at the same time.
Now, since these past 2 years have have come and gone, there have been some very tough times, I mean bottom of your life type of stuff. My mental health is very bad, Ive reached out for help, and I am getting it. At the advice of some right here, I made calls, appointments, and am working my way through some very serious mental issues. My whole world, my reason for living, working and caring, left my life, over a choice of me, or the bottle.
My good marriage, or what I thought I had, and could fix, came to an end, over addiction issues. Not my own. What I have been put through since ending it, well, death would have been preferable. Truly that is how I have felt. Not all the time, but somedays, I really do wish he had taken me. The pain I must endure mentally, is something I dont wish upon even our worst enemy’s. It rips me apart.
My point is, God saved my life, only to put me through hell, and back again. I ask him, why? Why did you save me, only to hurt me?
Whatever plan God has for me, is yet to reveal itself. He did this for a reason, and I trust in Him enough to keep going, no matter what happens.
We all need to just keep forging ahead, no matter what Satan throws at the world.
If we believe in him, and trust in him, and stay positive, good things will come. That is His way.
I hope, that someday, He will show me the path to be happy again. I have only endured this entire last 2 years, because I know He loves me, and he loves us all, even the sinners….
We must trust in him. And pray, pray and pray some more. He will show us the way….
Thank you Bobo, that is quite a journey you’ve had. It’s inspiring to me to hear. I have a dear friend who has been going through a horrendous ordeal with the IRS for the past 6 years. I pushed him to God which was a path foreign to him. It has helped especially when death seemed to be an easier path. It’s not been easy but he’s still fighting.
What you have written makes for hard but hopeful reading, Bob. Your openness about the trials you’ve been through, are still going through, have a purpose even though as you say with disarming honesty you are struggling to know what that might be. The same holds true for any and all of us enduring what I know seems capricious, indiscriminate suffering of many and varied kinds. This is something which lately I have great difficulty in understanding as I see so many for whom life has dealt vicious blows. I could name them, but I know you are as aware as I am, so there is no need. We all know…
I would like to suggest a thin book which does not relate to your tribulations precisely; but it was written by a man, CS Lewis, who in his own lowest of low moments, asked the same questions you have. Many I have recommended it to have said it helped them going through their journeys they were having trouble negotiating.
“A Grief Observed”
I hope I am not overstepping here.
One tremendous blessing which has been given to you is that by whatever means, you found your way to this Tree full of kind, thoughtful, loving people. A place where you can empty your heart and know there are those who empathize and care, and no doubt even now, are offering prayers for your dark moments to subside, to feel that miraculous peace which passes all understanding. That is what I will pray for you, dear sir. You are in the company of friends here. Please know it….and thank you for your honesty about your situation past and present.
You don’t know that someone who is going through the same thing might take comfort in reading your post. And find that desperately needed start of hope which leads them to know the unending lovingkindness which comes from Christ.
Blessings and complete healing I pray for you, Bob. B
Thank you Bets…
You are one of my favorites around this place. Just letting you know. 😉 I love your posts, you give much good advice and you waste no words. That is the sign of a very smart woman, and your heart shows through your words.
It means a lot, what you have to say to me. I appreciate it. The cross I have been given to bear, seem insurmountable at times, but I fight back at these demons which haunt me.
One day, it will all be a bad memory. The scars will heal. Eventually.
That being said, I dont think Ill ever be the same man I was, for losing my wife like that, and the way its been going, that will leave a mark. Perhaps lessons will be learned, but some scars stay.
That one is going to. She was my world, ya know…
I understood her, and felt sorry for her. Thus is the way my heart is built. Sigh…..
I so understand, believe me…the bottle is a terrible demon. In my own family, particularly, causing much heartache and disaffection. I don’t drink, probably in part because of it.
But while I understand how much you are hurting, I wouldn’t be so presumptuous to imagine the unending hurt of it.
Except to say…and I mean this.. my heart hurts because yours does. And it is that which makes me pray for all I am worth that as time goes on, the terrible pain will lessen. I will pray for her as well, Bob. Be sure of that, please.
We’re all shaped by our experiences, some good and some soul destroying. But when you’ve done all you could, somehow you must find a modicum peace in that. “Angels can do more” is a mighty comforting bit of wisdom I have found.
And know this as well. Though you may not see them yet or believe it, God’s mercies being fresh every morning also bring with them blessings we can’t possibly see. But they are most assuredly there…and appear when we may least expect them. I can attest to the truth of this through having received them when I most needed them and seeing them in the lives of others. Your recovery from cancer and continued remission is proof positive of that!! More will come…
God give you peace, my friend. With my whole heart, that will be my prayer for you 🙏🏻
I’m glad you’re here 😘
I am glad you got back in touch with the Warrior Spirit, Bob. Keep it up, bro.
I will put you on the prayer list at my church. I will pray for you. May our LORD strengthen you.
Bob, you say you do not have a known purpose… I suggest you consider you are fulfilling part of His purpose by sharing your message here. There is always hope, and faith provides power and strength to overcome seeming impossible odds. Godspeed Bob. Keep in mind there are people around you that you may not be aware of that care about you…
Yes, His ways are not our ways. I put my full trust in Him and Him alone. Amen.
Nearly through, girl. Pausing to say how much I appreciate the link.
My overall takeaway is that we lost our Republic long ago. The full impact of how badly was like a strong left to my jaw.
We think we know. But in listening, I became increasingly horrified (and that is not an adequate word but the only one I can come up with right now) at what sort of people make up a foreign governmentin DC heretofore masked as “public servants” with the best interest of American citizens as their oath sworn focus.
Of course we knew to some degree this wasn’t true. It’s the depth of their psychopathies that finally hit me. And the impenetrable ring of protection with which they have encased themselves.
And finally, the realization that one man and the four years he will have can’t dismantle it. That as much danger he has chosen to be exposed to since he announced, he will be in even more come the day he is victorious sometime in November…again, God willing 🙏🏻
That, and this exactly what I thought, it is Almighty God and Almighty God alone Who has the power to do what needs to be done if we are to escape the unmitigated evil which is the godless Deep State.
Those are my first thoughts with more processing to come.
Plus this last personal note.
There is only one previous time I remember feeling as small and insignificant as I did when I was taking this interview all in. Unlike those who believe it is they who are masters of all they survey with their capricious inhumanity and cruelty and monstrously outsized hubris.
It truly is the Father we must lean into…for it is in His hands. As it has always been.
I am praising Him for allowing us to see clearly what we are up against, which in my view He empowered President Trump to accomplish in his first term. None know what’s coming, but we can be certain He does. And that will, through faith, will have to suffice.
Bless you always, dear friend.
Oh, Betsy, I am SO glad that are feeling the same way that I did when I first heard the interview this morning! There is something incredibly dark, and evil, that has infiltrated our country, and indeed our world. I especially felt that when they were discussing the issue of abortion and Jimmy Dore said it is evidently no longer enough to be Pro-Choice. One must now be Pro-Abortion or you are out of the club! Even he sensed the evil in that viewpoint!! And maybe that was one of the signposts that God showed him, in order to get him to rethink other positions he had taken over the years?
“It truly is the Father we must lean into…for it is in His hands. As it has always been.” YES!! BUT GOD, being rich in mercy is still at work!
Pray for wisdom for me – as you know, my youngest son, who once wanted to be a missionary and youth pastor, walked away from his faith, and even from his family for a while because we refused to “follow the Science”. But lately, we have seen signs of softening, although he continues to “hate Trump” with an irrationality that can only come from someone who does NOT want him to return to his roots.
I just do not know if I should share this interview with him – it could bring him back, or push him further away, if he is not yet ready to surrender…I truly need clear direction so please pray for God to make His will so obvious that I cannot miss it!
I really hope Sundance makes a specific post about this interview -I want more people to see it and discuss it!!
Girl, I will pray for him, and for you as I know his walking away hurts your mother’s heart.
I hope my own son’s experience will give you hope.
Suddenly Christ found him when he wasn’t looking for Him. There is no earthy explanation for it because there simply isn’t one. But it happened, and he was recently baptized and is more at peace than I’ve every seen him.
I’ve always shared my faith with him but only as I’ve experienced how precious it is to me through the ways God in his mercies has not turned His face away from this sinner, though He had every cause to. I’ve not pressed, but shared only with examples…and a mother’s love.
I somehow feel, given what you’ve written, that like CS Lewis who returned to his faith in such a miraculous way after a long long while… and with the mentoring of his great and good friend JRR Tolkien…he, too, will feel the presence of the Holy Spirit.
Your lad started there. Given a time of His choosing, I do not doubt he will return. Keep on praying…🙏🏻😘
(I hope so, too, to see this fascinating episode in a thread soon. The discussion would be lengthy and interesting I’m certain.)
Thank you! I knew I could ask you to pray and that you would understand my heart…
How very encouraging to hear your son’s story and I definitely hope to be sharing good news with you, and the many others who are lifting up my son, soon!
Many blessings!!
You are heard…on his behalf we are as well. The day will come, and we will rejoice with you 💕
Betsy and VM: have read your comments for years. This conversation is so full of pain and joy and seeking and hope. Tears. Thank you for the inspiration of your struggles and your faith.
Bless, WillRoll. These ugly, uncertain times bring out the worst in some…but oh much more so in others the knowledge that Christ is closer to us than we may sometimes feel.
Bless YOU. We need Christ in these wicked times. And we need our brothers and sisters to remind us to turn toward him when the waves overwhelm. The world is in our face. And that’s when we need to remember to face Him.
Oh yes….Amen and AMEN!! 🙏🏻
Wise.
The bridesmaids and their lamps…
Joseph and the famine…
There are many examples of how God told us to “prepare”. It is not a lack of faith on our part. I think, well, if the Lord returns, whoever is left behind will certainly enjoy the bounty I left behind with lots of Bibles. 😉
Good on you, sis 😁 God bless you 😘
AMEN
Amen, sis!
They have already started to say enough, whether the movements in France, the Netherlands, Germany, etc., along with the populist swell in Hungary, Georgia, etc. I think that these ‘movements’ have been seeded through the MAGA movement and Trump. Let us hope that we can strengthen these rumblings with a Trump victory on Tuesday. For surely, as the US goes, so goes at least the western world…..
I hope so, too, J. Something terribly wicked walks this earth. The sands are shifting, no question. And though it is painful to see how slowly, they most definitely are. I watch daily with a keen sense that the moment will come when the dam will burst. In what manners who knows…but hubris always leads to nemesis. History is replete with examples. This time will be no different, one way or another.
People universally understand Payback…rhetorically speaking.
As a European i say that you patriots better make sure DJT does not get robbed a second time!
We are watching and hoping!
Good luck to you my American brothers and sisters! I wish you the best nov.5 ever!
Lets make America great again! God bless Donald J. Trump! God bless you all
greetings from the Netherlands
Heading to your beautiful country next summer!
You are more than welcome over here!
You can’t have her!
😉
What lovely sentiments! This lady of Flemish ancestry thanks you!
Hearing that from a Dutchman – WHO My Youngest Son Married into an Upstate New York Family of –
ARE
Usually VERY MEASURED FOLKS and KEEP YOUR OPINIONS til ASKED
THANK YOU For YOUR WISHES and PRAYERS
Pray for OUR NATIONAL DISCERNMENT and PERSEVERANCE – Like the Dutch DID Fighting the ZUIDER ZEE
“When we reflect that the eyes of the virtuous all over the earth are turned with anxiety on us… the only contest between divided friends should be who will dare farthest into the ranks of the common enemy.”
–Thomas Jefferson to John Hollins, 1811
Tears in my eyes as I watch these best wishes for Donald Trump across the globe. Donald Trump is the HOPE of humanity as people pray to Almighty God for a Trump victory.
personally, after Trump gets elected … I would like to see a pack of 52 cards with the top people in the WEF … And Trump tells the Military to go after them so they can be tried as terrorist/traitors/ and for war crimes!
I would like to see that happen, the people of canada would like it, and other nations would like it too. Remove the WEF sympathizers in other political centers around the world.
I think the World is ready to say “Screw You WEF” in your one government rule over the whole earth.
That’s something akin to taking political prisoners or doing what they tried to do to Trump.
And Trump is not the type of person to do that crap.
Those rich named are “enemies of the state” and Trump is exactly the type of person to taking out those who harm Americans, just like he did with that Taliban leader.
What part of the death vax plan and the reduce world population did you miss?
What about WEF unnecessary wars killing hundreds of thousands in recent years?
Yes they should be on trial.
technically, WEP is NOT a country! It has NO Country! ISIS was NOT a country. ISIS has no Country. WEP/ISIS is an organization that screws with other countries and terrorises them and installs corrupt people to take over places.
Correct.
That is not the mission statement for the American military.
Laws and EOs by Trump are on the books that can be used against these folks for violations of those acts.
Military oath – ‘…all enemies foreign and domestic…”
If those entities are deemed or there is evidence that they tampered in our elections, they are fair game.
BK: I hope that PJDT finds the steel within him to deal harshly with all the Traitors in our gov’t. and media/elsewhere… but I am of the belief that he has too much “goodness” in him to do what is required with these wretches.
He also has vengeful streak in him when he’s been wronged.
Certainly…if you think that is a proper use of the military. Worked out swell for Biden!
I emphatically do not.
EOs! Who does that remind one of?
Trump. He already set them up for future use and they were never rescinded.
You are confusing process legalities with mission statement.
I do not and will not ever support using the American military in this way.
Kinzhals to Davos, then, they already have declared war on our brothers and sisters in Russia.
Grooming “world leaders” is most certainly tampering with elections.
Ya think?
Gen.Malaise needs one of those dog masks Samsonite Brinton made popular..
The constitution of 1787 explicitly gave Congress the power to deal with piracy in international waters.
We are authorized to go after ALL pirates, the medieval “outlaws” of the modern world.
They are beyond the protect of law and all civilized nations are obliged to exterminate them.
What?….You want to play fair with them….so naive….
Only one side gets to jail political prisoners?
Maybe a strongly worded letter would work.
Traitors is what they are…not political adversaries. Big difference.
I disagree. There needs to be some sort of retribution to provide accountability. If the worst offenders are not punished, this behavior will happen again. We need to have people see there will be consequences for the crap done to us and President Trump
Au contraire, Trump had better do that “crap,” if not for us victims, for self-protection of him and his family; because, though he may be President, our globalist/communist enemies are not gonna stop, e.g., see John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
Careful what you wish for when it comes to the process.
Just saying.
Cuz when/if power flows away again, it’ll be shoved up your rear quarter.
Don’t corrupt the military.
If your preferred path is the Israeli/Obama option of targeted assassinations, at least be discrete enough to use the agencies designed and historically trained for that.
I heard the same **** from “progressive”/left wing types during my years at Fort Meade. Same sword, different edge?
Huh. So you worked in the depths of hell and evil itself.
I always like your posts, now a lot of them make sense. You have been in the belly of the beast. I get you now Philly….
Cheers man….
They are MURDERING US with poisons, with locust hordes, with blackmail and perversion and debt bondage, with Tren de Argua and MS-13, and you want to go swanning about with your lace hanky croaking, “muh principles! muh principles!”
The President has been a quick study his entire life. The WEF’s “…kind must not rise again,” and I have no doubt the President is well immersed in lessons on how to accomplish that. Legally.
They would get a fair trial and a speedy execution, in line with the Constitution
You are going to need more than one deck.
I second this motion!
Haha, yup, double solitaire, Trump playing both
And they cannot be 52 card decks, because the domestic and foreign enemies of the American people have not been “playing with a full deck” for a long time…….
“You’re gonna need a bigger gallows.”
Ummm……no
As soon as the world retribution tour kicks off, the derpstate will exploit it for maximum carnage. I would say that they are banking on this.
We must be calm, stabilize our economy, and repair our nation with all deliberate speed.
We must be even much more careful than before the election and work tirelessly towards the more perfect union as our forefathers prayerfully envisioned.
It’s a pain in the arse, at times, being moral and just.
But I thought that was the purpose of the resistance: restoring rule of law (and everything that implies) and adherence to the Constitution/Bill of Rights. The class warfare part of it I get. It has merit. But that is not my top priority.
No Rain of Terror phase in this revolution.
Actual, provable crimes must not pass uncharged or unpunished.
Wherever they are found.
Yes!
It’s the “how” the country goes about this that is at stake in this particular thread.
That is exactly right. The Trump administration must prosecute the pursuit of justice. People shooting other people based on death cards defeat our purpose.
Sundance creates a remarkable work detailing exactly how these creatures use “the law” to build a near impenetrable fortress, and these simpering ninnies, so in love with their lofty notions of themselves, tell us to stay in the prison fence, don’t you dare go outside it!
Breathlessly awaiting all those arrests and prosecutions, there, “trust the plan” Q.
No, this small community (those participating in this thread) have no power to do any such thing. There is another barbaric aspect to this country and we certainly have no power over what they do as we have seen in the past. They are very adept at destroying everything around them. The elite started it, the barbaric will continue it at the elite command.
And may the Lord have mercy on us.
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
A million times over
truly believe if he had locked up a few dozen in his last term we wouldn’t be so screwed as a country right now
I agree. If Bill and Hilary had been locked up decades ago for their traitorous actions with China and other adversaries, we wouldn’t be in the mess we are in with the DC Swamp creatures backstabbing the United States at every turn. Pelosi and her insider trading should have been punished. Mitch McChina should have been punished for his actions with the CCP. The list is just endless.
When criminals commit crimes and face zero consequences, they continue to commit crimes. Others see that and then emulate it!!
An ‘attaboy post: Hussein Obama did his part in causing our disastrous condition, but the Clintons started it, Obama recovered the fumble and ran with it.
That would be so nice! Outlaw that organisation and many other like the Bilderberg group. Hang these criminals if need be…
I have real fear for the D cheat in PA, MI & WI. At present sweeping those 3 is the only path for a Harris victory.
President Trump must win one of PA, MI & WI.
He will all 3…plus possibly VA, NH, MN and NM.
It’s not just the average margins in the polls…
It’s the trend of the polls the last two weeks.
For example, PDJT has been ahead of her in PA in 7 of the last 8 polls
and the one showing her +2 was from left-leaning Bloomberg poll from 10/16.
It’s the demon cheat that is the worry for the rest of us especially in those states.
Dear Public: Please report and publicize any evidence of election fraud that you see happening.
I want to believe the polls, but polls do not factor in massive cheating which is already taking place in states like PA. The RNC is complaining, but what can they really do about it? Appeal to the better natures of corrupt election officials? Republican voters are being turned away in conservative areas. A Republican woman who urged voters to remain in line when told to go come was arrested. The clock is ticking. Polls won’t matter when there is industrial scale fraud being committed.
To big to rig……
CUT THE CORD
We can’t assume anything …or trust polls.
This Battle between Good & Evil will not be fought in the election next week. It must, and will, be fought out in the streets and alley, on the prairies and in my mountains…the forces of Evil are deeply embedded and well-armed and led. This Battle will be won, but only at a monumental cost…we must each decide if we are in or out? As St Matthew taught us…Those who are not with us, are against us!
I have been watching NJ as well. I have been praying that at least 20-30% of real people that voted for FJB have woken up and will now vote for President Trump.
Last time around they had to really stretch their cheating in battleground counties to achieve their 90-110% voter turnout. They cannot do it again.
Yes…NJ would be next on my list also.
WORDMAN, I hope with all my energy that you are as accurate with your ‘prediction’ as you are with your use of the English Language. I watch for your posts. Thank You.
You are in lala land Wordman. I know he will never win MN. Not that it isn’t possible people there could vote in a non-cheat scenario but that isn’t reality in MN. The DFL has cheating to an art there and it extends beyond the Twin Cities. No amount of support can overcome the cheat there. And wimpy GOP in the state is no competition for the DFL.
They have begun setting fire to ballot boxes
I don’t think any smart Republicans use ballot drop boxes. So my guess is that Patriots are setting them on fire, as most ballots in those boxes are illegitimate and/or probably for Democrats.
Not true. Plenty of Republicans use them.
They are burning them in Washington State but only in select Republican areas as I understand.
Trying to figure out if the Globalist are that stupid to try it again?
Answer is yes the Globalist are that dense and Stupid!
Hang on tight guys
Wisconsin drop boxes are a problem. I consider them election fraud and unconstitutional.
The mayor of Wausau removed one and now his home has been raided, phones confiscated, etc etc.

I have been praying that before my demise I would see America, and the world, return to greatness. I will keep praying.
>>Turkey has positioned itself as Erdoğan always does, for itself and only for itself.
This should be the default position of every nation.
To be clear however, in the US, the nation IS the citizens. Any act must be beneficial to US citizens as a whole, not simply to the government.
While the US may occasionally choose to do a thing that is beneficial to someone other than US citizens, it must be with the full support of the American people. In the absence of a national consensus, US government should only act to benefit US citizens.
Anything else is simply treason.
The quote about Stephen should be “for himself and only himself”
Erdogen is doing exactly what he’s paid to do…put Turkey first!
What does full support mean?
I understand the higher principles you are explicating. That said, no way in this universe do I see our polity gathering around the same flag pole for a long, long time. Our society is simply too polarized ideationally, geographically, politically – certainly by wealth distribution.
I’m not attacking you. My thought process is that future successes depend upon a realistic understanding of the challenges. It’s why I think what happens in the next four years – let alone the next decade – is not going to play out according to anyone’s expectations.
I’ll be happy if those who purposely/knowingly stepped across the lines of legality, morality and decency – those who do not play by the rules and have disassociated themselves from the foundation principles of our republic – are eventually rooted out, tried in the court of public opinion (and courts of justice; assuming those are still viable) and held to account. But, where this all eventually ends up once the time of reckoning begins in earnest?
That is a really iffy proposition.
I think there would be pretty broad consensus around temporary humanitarian relief for natural disasters in friendly nations. Most other things, probably not.
How to know? Well, supposing we ever got to the point that we stopped throwing money around like drunken sailors, a national referendum with specific and binding terms, dollar numbers, and end dates would be acceptable to me.
But this is all dreaming. Your instincts are dead on. Our leaders are so addicted to spending that it’s hard to imagine getting to a point where that even becomes feasible. I’m throwing out idealisms, not pragmatic solutions.
Rand Paul releases his Festivus Report every year. He outlines the enormous amount Government wastes. Yes, a good portion of that is for $$Foreign Aid. This is just one example, but there are hundreds.
“This Year I’m highlighting a whopping $900,000,000,000 in waste”
USAID Fund to boost Egyptian Tourism…….$6,000,000
https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/Festivus-2023.pdf
I can buy into humanitarian aid.
I also get the gist of your economic argument – it’s been on a destructive course for a long time. There are many who argue that we are entering the final phases of a 70 year/long term debt cycle the denouement for which will not be pretty. If it happens – it will naturally set elements of society against one another.
My fundamental view is that our society has been so fractured, intentionally, that the probability of broad consensus is a six sigma event. What I see (and hear) happening today is largely reactionary in the sense of the the consequences of poor economic policies/theories of the left coming home to roost – energized by a common, if unspoken, feeling that the chosen candidates of the left are fraudulent mediocrities. When I mix with elites, liberals, the “educated”, etc., I feel that they are resigned to the necessity of cutting this particular head of the monster off. But their core beliefs (and emotional/irrational) expectations, arrogance, etc., has not and will not change.
We live in a very fractured culture. I don’t see that changing any time soon.
Liberalism, is a mental disease.
Their eyes cannot see.
Their minds are not clear.
They have no self inspection regimen.
Above all, they consider themselves our moral betters.
That balloon is going to burst. It should already have burst…but there are those who are beyond redemption to see what is in their faces.
Simply treason.
One of the reasons I have become more hopeful in the last couple of weeks is watching the moves by these people and the unhinged Obama. Excellent post Sundance.
Obama was never a beacon during any election except his own.
The Obamas act is theatrics.
Always has been.
The pair, at the end of the day, have proven themselves to be grifters nonpareil.
You are neglecting the Clintons.
lol!
What a country…eh? It produces the best and the worst.
Two such condescending people deserve each other but the American people deserve much better than them.
No argument from me!
They’re empty vessels. They had a historic charge and completely sacrificed the opportunity on the anvil of self promotion and failed 19th century political philosophy/dogma.
IMO
This race is over.
It’s now about election integrity.
NO, it is not over! Election integrity is ongoing and important, of course.
Keep the pedal to the metal, folks. Don’t let up. Get out the vote!
Some truth to that. I’ve never seen early voting at he volume I’m seeing in my part of FL.
Multiple reports yesterday about stacks of mail in ballots magically combusting into flames in a few states (i.e., not just one).
Everything is proceeding according to plan, Until next Tuesday. Then the real fight begins.
It was reported today in ZH (?) that Russia’s economy is booming the best it has in years, despite the war.
In the article, it described how enterprising Russian business folks have gotten around the Western sanctions, particularly on luxury goods made in the West and are making huge margins on reselling those items revealing implicitly that there is a growing number of Russians doing well enough to afford those items, unlike most Americans.
Also, “Big Mike?”
😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣 😂 😃
The question is: is that some sarcastic humor there, or a ‘hint’ of revelations to come? 😃
That is just too funny!
😎
Hopefully a hint of revelations to come. I am done with all this pretending. Let’s get real.
In the words of my generation back in the sixties, “Let it all hang out!”
I absolutely love it when SD takes the gloves off, and gets down and dirty. The non pretending is my most favorite likable trait he has.
Call a spade and spade, no matter what!
Early voting in the precincts that I’ve worked so far has been steady, with long lines, in some places over an hour wait-time. Election day is going to be a very long day, which am looking forward to. Hopefully it will be a long but peaceful time. In each of the polling places I’ve been assigned the poll watchers have been very sharp eyed, taking notes, and when there were “situations” after the voter finished casting their ballot would follow that voter outside to ask questions.
The majority of the poll watchers have been lawyers who drove over to Nevada from the San Francisco bay area; keep on hoping that some of them are poll watchers following True the Vote’s poll watcher guidebook.
Have been following a few political bloggers who are updating the numbers of registered voters the Nv. Sec. of State office puts out at the end of each day of early voting. They are heavily democrat-leaning bloggers and show worry that the number of registered Dem. voters are not as heavy as they expected them to be. What I find interesting is these same bloggers are all assuming that the non-partisan registered voters, which are more than either Dem or Rep., they are assuming these non-partisans are all going to vote Democrat.
I got news for them, from the under-the-breath comments and jokes I hear when voters come in to vote early, these non-partisans just don’t appear to be all in for the lady candidate. Example, one of the things we must ask early voters is to affirm they won’t vote twice as in vote early in person and also vote by mail-in ballot – and almost to a ‘t’ they say under their breath, I’m not a Democrat. Brings a quiet chuckle each time. And these are the Hispanic, and Asian non-partisan voters.
Of course, time will tell once all the votes are in and hopefully the True the Vote poll watchers are having eagle eyes on the counting of mail-in ballots now that the State’s supreme court has said that postmark of Nov. 5 or before isn’t mandatory on those ballots even though the law as written says the opposite. If there’s to be a cheat, my best guess will be that is the area to watch.
Is someone in the RNC going to do something about PA. They are already cheating and it is out in the open but nothing being done.
What is it that they are not doing?
Are they not sending you personal updates on every action? Consulting you in any way?

Get some ACTUAL ball of steel for actions IN ALL AREAS of concern to Citizens.
I’m from San Francisco San Francisco lawyers are mostly hard left radicals. Especially the ones who have time to spend several days in Nevada.
Poll watchers not poll workers. I hope
Yes – poll watchers. Poll workers are residents of the County in which they are working.
Every Trump voter should have early voted in person when most states started weeks ago.
Mailing in your ballot is way too risky.
We’re dealing with Communist fascists that will CHEAT LIKE HELL to get Kamilda in the White House.
Show up in person and vote TODAY.
TRUMP 2024
They have gamed out a Trump win through the Transition Integrity Project. They did the same before J6 and played it out exactly as they planned it out in advance.
What they have planned after he wins from November 5th to the Inauguration will bring us into the end game. They really do look at this as a zero sum game. Yeah, it’s going to get way worse if they follow through with their evil plans.
https://tomklingenstein.com/is-the-left-preparing-for-war-if-trump-wins/
***k them and their game plans.
Well who knows what it is but Trump said he and Matt Gaetz have a secret for us after the election.
Hope it’s a good one.
Everyone has a plan, until they get punched in the face.

Old Yellen has the IQ of a fence post. My apologies to Mel Gibson but I’m certain he won’t mind my borrowing of his assessment of the Kamala-kazee.

Trump Team!
Stop the steal.
Elon stop the steal.
Congressmen/Senators stop the steal.
MAGA media stop the steal.
GAB and Rumble Stop the steal.
Forgive me my long absence from these pages. I note that too many are leaning back too early, believing the job done, much prematurely, by my estimate. These vile people must be defeated, and that will require every ballot we can muster in our favor. It will require denying every illegitimate ballot we can. It will require our attention and engagement all the way until Inauguration Day, and then for long after as best we can muster.
It is not my intention to be a wet blanket, but do not fall prey to the notion that we have this thing in the bag. We don’t. And we must fight like Hell until we know otherwise, and that won’t be until at least late January. It’s not over. No rest yet for the weary. Thanks Sundance!
MAGA!
Nice to see you back Mark! 😀
Thank you my friend!
Roger that Mark and thanks for reminding everyone this is not a done deal yet FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT until we know we have victory . be well mark and welcome back

The comments were the most satisfying I’ve ever read about the one net zero. Finally! Took them long enough.
As Christians, perhaps in order for the Lord to return to Pres. Trump what was stolen from him thru false ballots… perhaps God the Father is asking His people to repay anything we have stolen from someone else when no one else was looking…. Perhaps to repay the X-Spouse all the money we took from them when we know they were innocent of any wrong doing in a divorce… to make right the wrongs that we have commited against our neighbor… Perhaps God will spare us as He did Ninevah if we live out restitution in our own lives and give back to our neighbors and fellow citizens what we have stolen… how can we repent? How can we make things right? How can we pay back what we’ve stolen? The log must be removed from our eyes before the Lord deals w anyone else’s…. Then your righteousness will shine forth like the early morning sun rise…. If you are going to give a gift at the alter… and remember that you have wronged your brother or sister… first go and make things right w them… make restitution… apologize… repay them in full… then come back to the alter and give your gift to the Lord… faith w/o works is dead… so let’s live it out and show ourselves worthy of the calling of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior…

The view from outside the US is damning for the Biden/Harris administration and their cronies. The people of the world know that our media is full of lies and regularly works to mis-inform Americans. They know that the US media drums fear porn – Chinese hackers, Iran influence, Russian interference. All to control the voters.
For example, Moon of Alabama today: https://www.moonofalabama.org/2024/10/how-media-continue-to-discredit-themselves.html
It’s not Russia, China, and Iran who are trying to influence our election, but the WEF, the globalists, the neocons, the multinational corporations and banks.
Russia, China, and Iran (and the rest of BRICS+) are going their own way, without us.
Because like the Treasury sign, the US will collapse from the weight of its own debilitating policies – a cycle of debt, rising interest rates on that debt, deficits, increasing energy costs, unlimited immigration, wars and regime change operations, and sanctions on 25% of the world, many of them on countries that are high commodity economies.
“What has happened?” If you don’t know by now, you’ll never know.
The arrogance of that WEF AWFL exceeds even that of The One. Incredible.
Georgia (country) is trying to fight them off. The country is a bit bigger than state of georgia.
The WEF “elites” speak as if we were sheep.
Wake up to find out:

TRUMP is the answer!

Drove by the early voting poll closest to my house yesterday about 3:30 in the afternoon.
At least 150 people outside in line around corner of the building
People cant wait to vote for Trump or Vote current puppet admin out!
I have several colleagues in the EU that I speak with weekly, one man I’ve gotten know from Norway he says in that Arnold Schwarzenegger voice; “What the f_ck is the matter with you Americans. Home of the free and the brave crap”. This was right after the steal in 2020. He and others in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and others say essentially the same thing.
They are not necessarily President Trump supporters as much as they are America supporters and tie their decline to ours. I do run into some that get their news from the enemy MSM, BBC etc. and they are just as blind.
But instinctively they know things must change at the leadership level of the USA. What is the expression; “we catch a cold they get pneumonia”.

Russia Is Experiencing Its “Fastest Economic Growth In The Last Decade”
Russia’s economy is booming, partly thanks to the sanctions meant to destroy Putin’s war machine
In the wake of many Western companies leaving the country or suspending their operations due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, they were quickly replaced by Russian versions.
So, instead of Starbucks, they have Stars Coffee, instead of Zara, they have Maag, and instead of Coca-Cola, Dobry Cola. Back in April, Doby reported that its 2023 earnings were quadruple the profits made in 2022.
Connolly says that sanctions have proven ineffective, essentially resulting in sanctions evasion becoming a sector in and of itself. This means that banned Western goods are still entering the country, with Russians able to purchase most of the products they were able to buy before the war.
This includes cars such as Mercedes and Chrysler, which end up in Russia via third countries such as Georgia, Kazakhstan and China. Their price is higher because of the tortuous import route, but wealthy Russians can afford them.
“Many Russian small businesses have an incentive to buy goods on foreign markets, bring them back to Russia and sell them at very good margins,” Connolly says.
The expert notes that before the war, Russian investment in the economy was poor, but now Russia is experiencing its “fastest economic growth in the last decade.”
https://rmx.news/article/russia-is-experiencing-the-fastest-economic-growth-in-the-last-decade/
Huh. Well looky here.
We have a troll.
Its not often we get such low IQ posters here, that just like to stir the pot.
I have a heads up for you Comrade.
You are in the wrong place to spew your nonsense. I hear WAPO needs some new commenters. You’d be more at home there, troll.
The funniest part is, because you are nothing but a new troll, you wouldn’t know that SD spent quite a bit of time in Russia recently. Oops!
You are in deep waters, speaking to SD this way. Hope you can swim….clown.
Would actually like to know what proof there is that Michelle is Mike, as you call her. Her neck and hands are of feminine size, which are usually dead giveaways. My fear sharing this missive is that as soon as the reader gets to “big Mike,” you’re going to lose them. It’s akin to the “Obama wasn’t born in Hawaii” argument. If there’s proof out there, put it on X. Put it on TruthSocial. Give it to Joe Rogan, etc etc. What a nice October surprise this would be.
start with these two webpages:

and

MAGA, conservatives, Treepers and Republicans are going to be “lost” from Sundance’s influence because of “Big Mike” or “Obama wasn’t born in Hawaii???
😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣 😂 😃 😀
If anything, it will boost the numbers and influence with that audience, true or not.
😏
LOL!
There are those people, who just love to pretend.
I would bet Linda here, is also offended by ” mean tweets ” too…
😉
Yes.. there are SO many ‘insinuations’ along these lines, and it bothers me that these same insinuations (without proof), are along the lines of the Trump “Russia, Russia, Russia” saga. Where is the actual proof. (I have been against the Obama ‘insertion’ since I first heard of him, and dislike that piece of excrement from the beginning.)
Reggie Love= Big Mike….
Nuff said….
There is a lot of DENSE people when it comes to The One. They probably voted for him too…..TWICE. SPIT!
Go back several comments and read the revolver website and comments about zero and family. and then, WAKE UP! if it’s possible.
Disagree about Big Mike’s neck and hands. Not feminine at all.
Her shoulders are wider than her hips. Another tell.
If you truly had an open mind you would explore the myriad of photos and information on the internet but I’m guessing you only know how to use the heavily censored search engines like Google.
President Trump will win Again!
Gracias Dios!!!
In the industry I operate within the majority of business activity has all but stopped. Literally everyone is holding their breathe. Billions in financial activities on pause. Our consumer base is everyday middle class Americans and on July 13th we saw a major contraction that continued through today. Real Americans know that everything is nuts and they are acting accordingly. I expect Trump will win but that will only initiate the fight between that moment and his swearing in.
The real question is what will YOU do if they actually try the steal?
My real question is where do you get the “if” part?
Drill Baby Drill
There have been lots of “predictions” (read “threats”) in varioius media that there will be lots of violence if Trump wins. Angry leftists taking to the streets to take out their rage on innocent storefronts and street signs. I don’t buy it. Oh sure, some dozens of angry blamtifa nihilits will show up. But I don’t think they can turn out the crowds like they did in 2020. Too much cross-cultural and cross-racial support for Trump. Besides, the left is NEVER as strong or as populous as they claim they are. There may be a couple more scattered shoot-em-ups by radicalized and groomed patsies, but no big demonstrations.
We shall see.

SOMEBODY or a lot of somebodys is doing target practicing at the shooting range behind my subdivision. It’s kinda scary.
The New World Order it was once called a few years back ,I curiously looked it up Thinking ,there’s no way you can just mix people all together with one think.I even told my husband about it and he didn’t believe me.Now he does.Also curiously it was tied to the Foreign Affairs something or other which I found also weird cause it was coming right here out of Florida.It was a while back,so I could be wrong.
George H.W. Bush was the first one to mention it in a speech… this plot has been underway for a very long time!
Just seeing Old Yellen is another brutal reminder of how far we have fallen.

WEF is a suicide pact for the West on behalf of China.
Run by The City of London, following plans laid centuries ago.
Indeed.
Without question.
Maquis, I don’t think it is on behalf of China. It is on behalf of the multinational corporations, the banks, the hedge funds who have the trillions to manipulate.
Run by The City of London, following plans laid centuries ago.
China by itself doesn’t have that kind of influence on The City of London and hasn’t had the centuries of development, but the banks and corporations do….they are the ones that have the growth and the paid influence.
They would like to blame it on China, so you don’t see the marionette strings that come back to their hands and so you fear China.
I know we want Trump to go after them, but he has work to do. Maybe he should tell them, “you stay where you are and don’t move an inch. If you so much as raise an eyebrow, we will come down on you. This is your final chance.” Maybe get one as an example. An obvious one. Not nebulous.
It’s hard to overstate how important it will be if Trump can win the NPV. MAGAs in deep blue states need to get out there.
It’s riot insurance. If we can get Trump to 51-52%, that’ll put the terrorists on their heels. Very important that there are two elections going on. The EC puts him in office. The NPV would just devastate Democrats.
The riots they might otherwise plan will fizzle in the face of a popular vote double whammy. And if we can give Congress to Trump, triple whammy.
Now the Repubs will fight Trump, too, but imagine the Executive Branch working collaboratively with the Legislative to puncture the attorney-client firewall…it’s been done rather recently…and just think how many Lawfare operatives t could end up in prison if that happens…
The obsolete “Bushies” just aan not stop.
Go away hide under the carpet.
Barbara Bush, GW’s daughter, supporting Kamala.
LMAO.
Who cares.
Imagine a new way forward, unburdened by the old way forward.
Desperation is putting not one, but two, white guys in the backdrop. It’s like watching my brother-in-law put on two face diapers when my sister-in-law would cuck him in public for not wearing two…
The only white men voting for Harris are the ones who hang their heads and respond “Yes, dear” when told who to vote for. They’ll fill out their ballot in the living room so their wife can make sure they vote correctly. If they vote in-person, they’ll still do what they’re told, because they’re unable to sustain more than one question demanding to know how they voted or get out.
All I know is my 30 something, former Military Manager buddy at Publix was pulling a shift in the butcher/meat section, and he looked spooked.
He didn’t tell me what was on his mind (this kid will break character and pulls no punches) as other customers and an up an comer with the company were within earshot but they were pulling ground beef out of the display.
His eyes have me worried.
On the bright side a firecracker of a Granny had on a Trump 2024 shirt, I paused and said “I love your shirt ma’am” she stopped and her whole person lit up as she said “do you have any idea how many people have said that today?
It’s been almost everybody!”.. no sooner than she walked away from me, another seasoned citizen in an electric shopping buggy with her home health care nurse both stopped her to compliment her stylish attire.
My area is about 70/30, 65/35 Trumpmericans to Death Cult, since the Californication of Florida began to accelerate during the Plannedemic.
I have had some nasty looks wearing Trump gear at this Publix and especially going sans mask the entire time it was mandated.
I used to wear my Blue Lives Matter neckerchief for a “face mask” when visiting my mom in Bethlehem. She’s Ultra MAGA but lol going to the local Wegmans with that mask on. People would just GLARE at me. This was summer 2020, mind you. I remember going to get some turkey at the deli, and the lady behind the counter took three steps back in horror when she saw my facemask.
Got I was just laughing so far. I remember winking at some Karen in the checkout line. It was so much fun.
I did wear a cheesecloth bandana in there one time. It was really difficult to keep a straight face, but worth it. I got some looks of complete bewilderment, that day I will tell you..
I saw what you did there……
President Trump is Godzilla.
Harris campaign is pulling out of North Carolina…
“Pay me now or pay me later!” When Fram said that, they were talking more than air filters.
America is learning the hard way that it’s time to pay up for believing the Uniparty, WEC, Disney, ABC, MSNBC pretenders and rejecting the Trump MAGA pragmatists who know how the world really works.
We can only hope enough pretending liberals have be mugged by Biden’s policies into seeing the light by next Tuesday.
