“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”
“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Have a great night be well

Best to pay them no time! Not one second!
CUT THE CORD
Cut what cord? The only way to cut out the doom posters here is to not visit the treehouse. Is thst your goal? For everyone to unplug from information entirely and live in ignorance?
Your screeching anthem is tired and no longer helpful.
It isn’t President Trump who is picking Uniparty turds for the Cabinet other than the exemplary Mr. Patel, Dr.Carson and Mr.Homan.
I’d run to to Mar-a-Lago in 34 degrees with 86% humidity in basketball shorts, My Pillow flip flops and a T-shirt right now to take a bullet for President Trump with a bulging disc that feels like a crossbow bolt in my spine, with zero painkillers, so fast your head would spin.
“If two people agree on everything one of them isn’t necessary”- Dr.Ben Carson
I’m so sorry about your back. I lived with a husband and a step son who both had spinal problems and suffered much pain as I’m sure you do. Best wishes for eventual relief from that pain though some medical intervention.
Mountain Liger:
Oh yes it is Trump who is picking the unitary turds. Wake up.

Joe is a lying sack of Sheeeeeeeeeeeeet !!!!!!! And so is Psaki.
Only time will tell, but its possible Joe gave MAGA a heck of a parting gift, in pardoning Hunter.
I see a LOT of signs of red-pilling going on.
TDS zombies are actually shocked, shocked I say to see that Joe lied to them, “right to their face”.
And, the reaction we ALL feel, when we realise someone has lied to us, about something significant, is threefold;
We are angry and disappointed at them for lieing to us, angry and ashamed at ourselves for believing it, and then we think “What ELSE did he/the MSM lie about?
And thats the first, irrevicable step to red pilling…
Once again, just like when Joe drove both muslims and Jews to vote for PDJT, JOE has in a backhanded sort of way, made good ob his campsagn promise to Unite Americans..way to go, Joe. Ironically, you did more in your 4 years to grow MAGA, than a second PDJT term from 2020- 2024 possibly could have, and even as you are a demented, lame duck crawling out of office, …your STILL at it!
When do they start asking why the crimes pardoned begin on January 1, 2014? I wonder how many of them are intellectually curious and honest enough to dig deeper for answers to that question.
Agree!!!! Is this the first pardon that is blanket and with a date specific timeframe and not based on pardoning known committed crimes? Why didn’t demented, pedo Joe choose Hunter’s birthday as the starting date rather than January 1, 2014 or would that be too obvious? That way Hunter would be fully protected or did Hunter’s participation in the Biden Crime Family begin in 2014? So to Hunter, Joe really is “the Big Guy”!!! That pardon proves it! The rest of us if convicted of Hunter’s Federal felony crimes would be doing 40+ years in a Federal big house!
My Stage 4 TDS friend told me to my face that Donald Trump is a rapist, hates women, filed for bankruptcy 6 times, felon, and Putin’s buddy unlike Joe Biden who loyally and faithfully served in government for 50 years, made his money honestly, and loves this country.
My guess is that Hunter Biden’s Pardon has knocked her to the ground the same was that The Bad Orange Man’s Election did on Nov 5.
Her name is Sucky.
I must edit your spelling!
Hahahah….spelled….AND pronounced !!!
and mop head.

Smearing Pete Hegseth
https://www.compactmag.com/article/smearing-pete-hegseth
I bet at least 20 to 30 Republicans voted to confirm Lloyd Austin, an empty suit, as Secretary of Defense! LOL
Easy enough to see. Actually, would like to see someone compile a list, of how many Repukes voted for Bidens horrible cabinet; from buttwipe, to Grinholm, to the Sturgeon General chick w/dick, to the wacko waste management luggage thief.
I don’t do that kind of stuff, but somebody really should.
I’d love to see that list too but, like you, I’m not much of a researcher, digger or compiler.
As an aside, Elon has publicly promised to help primary any Senator who’s up for re election this cycle who votes against any of President Trumps picks.
Consequently, its likely that he will put voting records on blast.
It’s easy. Google “Lloyd Austin Defense Secretary Confirmation”.
Same with the others. It will show the actual votes.
I got on Ballotpedia and put together a Word file (4 pages, 11 font size) of the FOR votes for his cabinet, not counting surgeon general or luggage thief, and for a few there were only voice votes, no individual votes recorded. I list number of D votes for and number of R votes for, along with names and states for the R votes FOR (does not count votes of no or people not voting). It’s long so I don’t want to post it here.
(I’m appalled at the votes by my state’s so-called Republicans. I like your term better (Repukes).)
However, there is a nice (short) summary table of how Senators voted in 2021 for Biden’s cabinet at
https://ballotpedia.org/How_senators_voted_on_Biden_Cabinet_nominees,_2021
but it doesn’t break the votes down by individual cabinet position. My Word file does.
Also need a montage of RINOs like Graham justifying those votes with “the president gets to pick his team” excuse. That’s one of Graham’s favorites.
Turtle said the same about President Trump, but it took him until April 2019 to do so.
Well, Obiden picked Lindsey.
“chick w/dick” 🤣 🤣🤣 another Dutchman classic description of the left!!!!
Oh, that suit is far from empty…
Yes, he’s full of it.
When you leave out letters you are supposed to put space markers there (**it).
He’s not an empty suit. His has been and is nothing but a DEI mongering race hustler his entire career.
I looked it up using Ballotpedia. Only Hawley and Mike Lee voted against Austin and 5 additional Rs didn’t vote.
Austin was consented with 93 votes on 1-22-21.
Yep, 2 days after the potted plant’s installation.
43 Republicans, actually.
Shelby (AL), Tuberville (AL), Murkowski (AK), Sullivan (AK), Boozman (AR), Cotton (AR), Scott (FL), Rubio (FL), Crapo (ID), Risch (ID), Braun (IN), Young (IN), Grassley (IA), Ernst (IA), Marshall (KS), McConnell (KY), Paul (KY), Cassidy (LA), Kennedy (LA), Collins (ME), Wicker (MS), Blunt (MO), Daines (MT), Fischer (NE), Sasse (NE), Hoeven (ND), Cramer (ND), Portman (OH), Inhofe (OK), Lankford (OK), Toomey (PA), Graham (SC), Scott (SC), Thune (SD), Rounds (SD), Blackburn (TN), Hagerty (TN), Cornyn (TX), Cruz (TX), Romney (UT), Johnson (WI), Barrasso (WY), Loomis (WY)
Working at (F)Pox News would automatically disqualify any cabinet pick if I had anything to say about it. Wait, I did back in November!
And the person choosing his new cabinet is the one you believed to be capable of leading the nation. What has changed since November that led you to believe that he is currently incompetent? What happened to turn you from the supporter you were in November into a critic now?
I don’t know who is picking what now, V.
I guess President Trump assumed who he picked to do the picking read The Conservative Treehouse on the regular.
It’s my problem for assuming the person chosen to determine cabinet picks were as informed as I am, just from reading the brilliant posts here.
Thank you in advance for the understanding and Grace to bare with me as I begin to accept things as they are, not as I wish them to be. Good Day.
I hope President Trump’s understanding goes beyond what is written in this blog. I have to believe that he knows what he’s doing and that he’s not a mere puppet being deceived and deceiving us.
He is the one who was shot at, and he is the one who decided to stand up and continue fighting.
We have the grace that we give. “Seek to understand first before judging and criticizing.”
I cannot pretend anymore. We have one shot at this. There is no room for mulligans.
In my world of debilitating pain and mounting bills things are cut and dried.
I haven’t watched Fox since ’20. Anyone on that channel takes Murdoch money. They can say whatever they want, they still take poison money for a living. I never liked Hegseth ever, way before all this. Something about the dude rubs me the wrong way.
I know what you mean. I don’t watch TV and I don’t, particularly, like anyone, but it’s not about me and my feelings.
I can only continue to pray for President Trump to be guided by God, and I will not join the voices criticizing him, because I know that’s not productive. He has my support and prayers all the way.
President Trump isn’t a puppet. He is in a very tightly controlled silo filled with people he believes he can trust. People who do not give President Trump real truth. Sundance has tried to get information to him but the praetorian guard will never let his research get in president Trump’s hands. He doesn’t know what he doesn’t know.
And it’s ok to say so. Despite what the self important wannabes and trusty planners here demand of us.
I’m not “self-important” or a “planner”; I’m just not second-guessing President Trump.
Is this the “wrap up smear” that Nancy Pelosi boasted about? She was accusing Republicans of using that tactic but we all know when Democrats accuse Republicans of something awful they are projecting what they do to Republicans!!! The Republicans can’t use the “wrap up smear” because they don’t control the media which the IC runs called the mocking bird media which is the essential part of the wrap up smear!!!
Moving TSCM here along with associated businesses and staff might lessen the Taiwan problem.

The Day of the Jackal.
The ending scene where Charles DeGaulle moves his head slightly to honor the old veteran at the last second…as the assassin fires.
The French Police were a whole lot better than the US Secret Service…
Thank you, Joe…I LOVE that movie. And in life imitating art, PDJT moved his head slightly…as the assassinS fired.
(No one will EVER convince me that kid acted alone and shot alone that day in Butler…)
It’s a great movie and the last scene is fantastic!
“And in life imitating art, PDJT…”
And this evocative imitating continues
Where did PDJT just say he was going to be this weekend?
Paris, France
Just reading that on the earlier thread. Hope PDJT is bringing the best of the best security people on this trip !!
My thoughts exactly! 🤔
Noone in History has worked to assassinate anyone of note by themselves, period
Read this “theory” about Crooks–he was acting as a volunteer –https://georgewebb.substack.com/p/five-months-later-evidence-still
I remember Webb from his reportage on the killing of US Atty Berenton Wisenhunt Jr. The US attorney digging into DWS and If it were ever found she put the hit out on Wisenhunt? I’d believe it as I already suspect DWS involvement.
She is one double Mossad US Congressperson for sure. Evil to the bone.
She had the Imran Awan’s capture all of the US congress comms and tiped them off so they could flee back to Pakistan. Never forget that. We STILL have anti-US spies within – it’s insane

Hi Ed,

That was great. That’s one of the films I have always intended to see but never did.
You can probably get the video at the public library near you. Just be sure to get the 1971 version with EDWARD FOX not the Bruce Willis one.
Russia has an overwhelming military advantage over the entire world atm.
I would be scared if I didn’t believe that Mr. Putin is going to use this and Mr. Trump to cause world peace.
Frankly, another “Ain’t I been sayin it,…well ain’t I!??”
And this time its not about crowing, the thing is I am not in “intelligence” have no military background, and months before Putin did his demonstration I was able to see the obvious;
Putin has hypersonic weopons that have pin point accuracy, and we don’t, nor do we have any way to defend against them.
Ergo, any time he really felt threatened, he could take out NATO hreadquarters in Brussels, the military/political centers in Berlin, Paris, etc. and even D.C., WITHOUT resorting to Nukes.
But they, who ARE in intelligence, and who have careers in the military, couldn’t see this?
By the way,..
IF he were the mad tyrant they have portrayed him as,…WHY HASN’T HE??
Something to ask libtards, as they are red-pilling at the realisation Joe and MSM lied to them, and are asking themselves “WHAT ELSE?”
Well, he doesn’t want to run roughshod over Western Europe – and purposefully or accidentally push the nuclear hand. Which is lose lose.
Maybe they also don’t want us to have more samples to reverse engineer the new weapon?
He appears reasonable, and for years has been asking for peace talks; negotiations; agreed to Minsk I; Minsk II; and then the Istanbul peace Accords. Which we blocked.
After he unleashed his recent 36-warhead unblockable missile, days later he hit Ukraine with 90-odd missiles, drones, etc., reportedly pushing millions more to flee to the EU in wintertime.
It appears the Swamp is trying to leave Trump a massive mess, and eek out the last Billions for the MIC. It’s sick.
Russia reportedly ramping up the new Hazel missile production, and new variations. I’m sure carrying nuclear warheads is one option. Another carrying TNT / other.
“It appears the Swamp is trying to leave Trump a massive mess, and eek out the last Billions for the MIC. It’s sick.”
FORTUNATELY, Pres. Trump has the unnatural tendency to fix massive messes. For example the Wollman Skating Rink.
Yes, there will be a mess, but we’ll fix it!
It can be stopped. The bulk of weapons development in this country is not carried out by the military,they are a customer. I would never bet the farm on Russian hardware.
Putin is not going to start firing at those targets because he knows and we know, the rain of fire headed into his country if he did would wipe out the cities and millions of people. Why would he want that? He has made huge gains with his economy and what the people there have now—decent lives. The country is apparently thriving as SD noted in his travels there.
Who in their right mind would want the destruction of countries and death of millions of people? Well, we kind of know who and it isn’t necessarily Putin. The rebuilding process from something like a WW3 would be almost impossible and would take many generations if it was attempted.
Putin knows what he risks and I don’t think he would push the final button. Depends on what the less than intelligent folks in charge of the West decide to do. He showed everyone what he has to fight with. He has the upper hand on that.
At times, even those within the belly of the beast, the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing.
Compartmented. Devils in the details and I don’t have them. We’ll see.
They need it for protection from us!
Respectfully, no. The USA is clearly still the most powerful country on earth, though that power has been misused and abused. I am pretty confident Putin would trade military for military and economy for economy, straight up, in about one second. That said, Russia should be our ally and friend. Our power was misused and abused by starting the current war in Ukraine (pardoned from January 1, 2014 why?). I am hopeful President Trump can build a better relationship between our two countries.
My apologies in advance, utter nonsense.
😁
Trump and Trudeau…
Didn’t Trudeau make some back-stabbing comment as Trump left Canada, I think on his way to China, early in the 45 presidency? I don’t remember what it was exactly, but I bet Trump remembers.
Remember when the President of Mexico tweeted, IN SPANISH that PDJT’s version of their conversation didn’t square with hers, and she was going to assure Mexicos sovereignity, blah blah?
Well, the Mexican Govt. just turned back two large caravans, so she WAS in fact just “speaking to her peeps”.
If she cared about sovereignty, she wouldn’t let the people into her country in the first place.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14151235/trump-floated-trudeau-canada-51st-state.html
FTA “During their sit-down, Trudeau told Trump he cannot levy a 25 percent tariff on Canada because it would completely kill the Canadian economy. Trump replied – so your country can’t survive unless it’s ripping off the U.S. to the tune of $100 billion? The president-elect then suggested to Trudeau that Canada become the 51st state, which caused the prime minister and others at the table to laugh nervously, Fox’s sources said. Trump added that while prime minister is a better title, Trudeau could still be a governor.
Trump then suggested that Canada could be divided into two states – a conservative and a liberal state. He then told Trudeau if he didn’t stop people from flowing over the northern border, Canada could become one or two U.S. states, the sources said. While the exchange prompted laughs, sources also told Fox that Trump gave a serious message to Trudeau about immigration enforcement. ”
This is great!!! President Trump humiliating the Euroweenie Trudeau and he doesn’t even realize it!!! Never sit next to President Trump if you’re a woke, progressive, socialist like Trudeau!!!
France on edge of meltdown as Le Pen poised to bring down Macron’s government in 48 hours
French Prime Minister Michel Barnier had to employ Article 49.3 of the French constitution, to push his controversial Budget through.
https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1983537/france-on-edge-of-meltdown-le-pen
Hopefully, the Le Pen frackas will delay said trip. Macron is eel slimy.
Macron is attempting to rob French citizens of their pensions. Whether raising the age of retirement or simply stealing from the funds directly, it boils down to the same thing.
Well, at least Barnier followed their constitution. Over here Congress says “screw the budget”, violates the Constitution, stamps out another CR, and, funds the Uniparty agenda with more debt.
——————————–
“Paragraph 3 of Article 49 allows the prime minister, “after deliberation by the Council of Ministers,” to force a bill through the Assemblée Nationale with no vote. The only alternative to prevent the bill from passing is then to overthrow the government.
When the prime minister triggers this procedure, MPs have the option of tabling a motion of no confidence within 24 hours. If a majority vote is obtained, the law is rejected and the government collapses. The next logical move would be for the president to dissolve the Assemblée and call early elections.
If the motion of no confidence is rejected, the government wins its gamble: the law is passed.”

That purple tie looks photoshopped..
President Trump does wear pink, lavender and purple ties. I have posted pictures multiple times. Those colors match up well with gray, black or brown suits.
^ I look at that picture and immediately suspect a “memer” is attempting to link POTUS to the “Purple Color Revolution(s)” of the Globalists.
This right here is a travesty!!
The political criminals who did this to American citizens need to spend an

Melania Trump claims Barron was refused a bank account because of ‘cancel culture’
October 9, 2024
Melania Trump has claimed that “cancel culture” led to her son Barron being refused a bank account after the Trump clan left the White House.
In her memoir Melania, which came on Tuesday, the former first lady complains that she and Barron felt the “venom of cancel culture” in the weeks after the January 6 Capitol riot took place.
“I was shocked and dismayed to learn that my long-time bank decided to terminate my account and deny my son the opportunity to open a new one,” she continues.
“This decision appeared to be rooted in political discrimination, raising serious concerns about civil rights violations.”
https://www.yahoo.com/news/melania-trump-claims-barron-refused-122617149.html
She is a class act.
FIRST Class !!
Her book “Melania” is enlightening as well as informative. She is incredibly accomplished, intelligent and far more inspirational than most first ladies. What the yellow journalists have done to this woman is appalling. DJT understands quality and she is a diamond of the first water.
How can you not like her?

County in Washington State Cannot Block ICE Deportation Flights, Appeals Court Rules
Excerpt:
Judge Daniel A. Bress of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit wrote in the Nov. 29 opinion that a 2019 executive order issued by King County Executive Dow Constantine that prohibited the ICE deportation flights was unlawful. …
….Bress wrote that the executive order’s flight ban “discriminatorily burdens the United States” in the enforcement of federal immigration law and that this “discrimination, plain on the face of the Order, contravenes the intergovernmental immunity doctrine.” Rooted in the supremacy clause, the intergovernmental immunity doctrine protects federal government operations from discriminatory or obstructive actions by state and local governments.

I am confused over why we are trying to deport anyone from lefty-liberal areas? Let them be sanctuary cities or States!
Please, Mr. Homan, focus on the regions in our Country that support your efforts – namely, Conservative-voting districts that have seen an increase in crime as a result of the open border. Put 100% of your effort into the States that voted FOR Donald Trump.
The more the illegals flow into California and other blue States from our regions (in order to avoid deportation), the better! This will result in even higher crime and an increase of unsightly scenes that the liberal “normies” do not want in their backyards. Might gain a few voters…
Cancer in one part of the body ends up killing the host. Allowing CA to be ruined kills our nation on a federal level which, ultimately, harms everyone.
Is this a good thing? Supremacy of the federal government?
Repelling an INVASION is the Federal Responsibility.
This interview with Peter Thiel and Bari Weiss blew my mind.
Bari is a liberal. Thiel is a technocrat, and yet like Pres. Trump is highly attuned to the effect of technology on society.
He carefully explains JD Vance to her. She pops up with these strange obsession about the threat of populism, and he shoots down her arguments, and corrects her fears.
Thiel is a philosopher technocrat.
Highly recommended.
PS. Pres Trump, Bari Weiss (maybe), Peter Thiel, and even Sundance, share a genetic trait that used to be called “highly sensitive,” that has been more accurately named:
Biological Sensitivity to Context/Adaptive Calibration Model
About – FROM THE PROFESSOR IN CHARGE AT THE UNIV. OF UTAH DOING RESEARCH.
“I work actively with students on projects relating to stress, development, and health from an evolutionary-developmental perspective. I co-developed the theory of Biological Sensitivity to Context…and its recent extension the Adaptive Calibration Model , 2014; … This work presents a novel evolutionary-developmental theory of childhood stress and biosocial development that has been influential in guiding research on stress-health relationships and resilience.
“Biological Sensitivity to Context theory proposes that children differ in their susceptibility to environmental influence in a “for better and for worse” manner, depending on their psychobiologic reactivity to stress. In this work, more reactive children (as indexed by heightened autonomic or HPA responses to laboratory challenges) display heightened sensitivity to both positive and negative environmental conditions.
“Metaphorically, we have referred to these sensitive individuals as orchid children, signifying their special susceptibility to both highly stressful and highly nurturing environments. In contrast, individuals scoring low on stress reactivity have been designated as dandelion children, reflecting their relative ability to function adequately across a wide range of species-typical conditions.
“Our research on biological sensitivity to context suggests that the very characteristics that are often thought of as children’s frailties (e.g., high stress reactivity) can also be their strengths, given the right context …
“My current work in this area focuses on delineating “What is an orchid child?” in terms of neurobiological profiles, susceptibility to different kinds of childhood stressors (e.g., harsh vs. unpredictable family environments), and the specificity of these effects in relation to different developmental outcomes (e.g., externalizing versus internalizing behavioral problems). More recently, we have begun investigating temperament and sensory processing sensitivity as indicators of biological sensitivity to context …
https://psych.utah.edu/research/labs/biological-sensitivity.php
“These people as children and adults were shown, via Real Time MRI’s, to notice (even subconsciously) and process, 20 % more information in a given environment. 2/3’s tend to be more introverted, and 1/3 are extroverted. They are picking up clues and information that most of the population is oblivious to.
The trait is proven to exist in almost all biological species: It is a survival niche. When a wolf brings home a kill, certain members of the pack hang back waiting to feed. It doesn’t just have to do with age or position in the pack.
This trait has given Pres. Trump, a tremendous political advantage. Barron seems to possess the trait as does Melania.
IT CAN BE A SUPERPOWER IF IT IS MANAGED APPROPRIATELY.
Certain criminals possess it like Ted Bundy. The slightest anomaly can peak their attention. Which can make them very difficult to capture because they are hyper aware.
Kamala and Biden are dullards. Hillary may have the trait because she has turned into such a capable predator.
It’s worth noticing.
(Yes, I have the trait as do several of my adult children. But not all, because my husband did not have the trait.)
Read more about it at the link above.
https://psych.utah.edu/research/labs/biological-sensitivity.php
I just finished this in its entirety. Thank you, zephyerbreeze.
I do not know where Bari Weiss comes from, but both, from my estimation, are somewhat off course.
Peter Thiel does not have what I would call an American thought process at all. He did come from Germany, and I can tell immediately his mindset.
Perfect English but I have worked with Germans in the past and immediately understand his cultural structure. Stiff and ‘globally attracted’? A bit sad.
Bari seems to be just an open left-wing interviewer. Thoughtful, but not understanding the MAGA movement enough by her own questioning.
Peter…I thought he would be more of an out of the box thinker. Not an Elon Musk at all.
PJT and Elon would see right through him. PDT also may need to reign in Elon, IMHO. Yet, Thiel, has one eye open but the rest is in a half-closed state, IMHO.
I would not put him in a camp with SD, EM or PT.
And thank goodness all will probably understand as easily as I do.
Thank you so much for posting!
I much appreciate your exposé !
Peter does not have effervescent fun thought. It’s too bad.
Interesting take, yours above. I hope I’m able to review it again once I am able to hear the interview much later in the day/eve.
I appreciated your summation “pre-listen”. I bet Thiel is indeed, a real “life of the party” kinda guy ( eyeroll )
reed, TY!
LOL!
My take is that Peter Thiel is very quiet, not very creative enough and not what we would call a cheer leading voice.
What he may be might be very different, but he has a reservation about his personality.
I often find this sad.
This is why I so truly understand the sunny mind of an American. Ronald Reagan had this as a lifeguard when he was young. And why he was so depressed when he traveled though England after WWII.
I have worked with Russians in my past. They actually have more creativity until they believe they will be sent back home to the Fatherland!
But until then, they dance, sing and have a drink.
I guess we shall see.
“But until then, they dance, sing and have a drink.”
I have drunk with Russians before! I can relate and so…..
“Those were the days my friend, we thought they’d never end we’d sing and dance forever and a day -we’d raise a glass or two – we’d fight and never lose! – those were the days OH YES, those were THE DAYS!”
“Those Were the Days” is a song composed by Boris Fomin (1900–1948) but credited to Gene Raskin, who put a new English lyric to Fomin’s Russian romance song “Dorogoi dlinnoyu”, with words by the poet Konstantin Podrevsky. The song is a reminiscence of youth and romantic idealism. It also deals with tavern activities, which include drinking!”
🙂
Cheers my friend.
One of my favorite songs! Thank you so much!
One version was quite a hit in the 60’s.
^ Mary Hopkin. Huge #1 BLUE COLLAR
Such a lovely song. I posted it in the Open this AM when my new friend WSB here, reminded me of it. However tangentially 🙂
PS you are very funny…droll!!!! LOL!!
I’m here all week. Try the veal lol 🙂 thx
LOLOL!!!!!
Could I just have a moment?
Americans have fun. They have fun thinking.
We are free. And we have FUN!!!!
This is why we design things.
Can someone else tell me who has this much fun by nature?
I’m naughty by nature?! AND down with OPP !!! LOL
Yet no one sees the anomaly in this narrative?
No one ever asks where and how the likes of Musk, Thiel and Ramaswamy obtain billions in working capital in the first place. That is the glaring missing context here.
Specifically, in this story, Weiss is positioning Thiel as counter culture warrior in the world of high-tech venture capitalists. But where did he get his money? Who does he answer to?
Venture capitalists in the early days, were called a vulture capitalists by the entrepreneurs I had many occasion to work with. There was a time when savvy engineers and programmers could prototype, test and prove their idea. Then patent their Intellectual Property (IP) and find banks, corporations and/or partners willing to fund its development.
But that model changed with Venture Capitalists. Their model is to spot the truly valuable entrepreneurs, offer funding to scale it or productize it, and walk away with the IP. Vultures. This model was need for the larger Agenda of central control of digital information and narratives.
This is the model use when the globalists’ Vulture Capitalists sent a brilliant young Elon Must to “help” 2 Silicon Valley engineers who had new IP to overcome many obstacles in EV development. The original engineers were pushed aside, VC owned their IP, and Congress funded Tesla to ensure it aligned with the globalists Green Agenda.
Ramaswamy was tasked by his Wallstreet owners to extend the Vulture Capital model to budding entrepreneurs. Vivek was given a pile of cash to identify innovators on college campuses and develop a program co=opt their IP before they even graduate.
Until the centralized capital model is changed, nothing about the human-farm will change except the faces and names fo the farmers.
—————————-
All that is old is new again.
“Capital, if it is to cooperate untrammelled, must be free to establish a monoply
of industry and trade; this is already being put in execution by an unseen hand in
all quarters of the world This freedom will give political force to those engaged
in industry, and that will help to oppress the people. ” Protocol5
Are you saying the old model went away? Entrepreneurs are now forced to VC money? That’s nonsense.
I’m no fan of most VCs, but they’re just a pot of aggregated investor money (some are definitely tied to the government) with outsized return expectations. They are typically very efficient, even though they’re basically riverboat gamblers. They definitely take advantage of an entrepreneur’s need for capital to drive expensive financing and often control positions.
The main problem for the entrepreneur is that explosive growth eats enormous capital, so even lenders can’t provide it given the typical risk profile.
You can still mortgage your house, take a personal loan or go to Shark Tank if you like.
I put all my money on “In-Q-Tel”.
Should I rethink my position?
Why is Vivek even mentioned in the same breath as Elon?
Elon built Tesla, StarLink, SpaceX and retooled Twitter.
Ramaswampy took over his Mommy’s Big Pharma grift which was based on a fraudulent product. He then built another fraudulent product; a Clot Shot for DARPA. Then he was bought out by Vanguard/StateStreet at inflated stock prices as a way to fund his campaign. He was then presented to the People as a better, younger MAGA alternative to PDT.
Good question. I asked my self a similar one when he was latched on to DOGE. I am aware of how Wallstreet and BigPharma groomed and used Ramaswamy. He’s still young but highly skilled in “reflection” (people see in him what the want to see). But a mental midget compared to Musk, no?
I mentioned him in this context because of the young entrepreneurs VC job he was given by Wallstreet globalists. The program they funded him to lay in place, now identifies very young technology minds – not to fund their innovations, but to own them..
So is Thiel. Not even certain about Musk…
Yes, we have no idea. OK, Musk became the largest private IC contractor under the Trump presidency. …others, no idea.
Thiel, Ramaswamy, could we just have at it? Please let us know.
Exactly right sDee
“No one ever asks where and how the likes of Musk, Thiel and Ramaswamy obtain billions in working capital in the first place. That is the glaring missing context here.”
The 64,000.00 question and though I don’t have the “answers”? Thiel is anything but a “counter culture warrior”. He is and will be instrumental in shaping the future of culture by default if not by design.
I don’t trust a one of ’em. EXCEPT
“New York” – I love that dude. MAGA please. Before I shed this mortal coil.
MAGA-2 is an astonishing coalition.
Trump made his fortune in real property, real structures. tangible payments for tangible services.
This cabal is granted fortunes to acquire/control intellectual property, buy political power, build monopolies and skim of the top of those who create wealth and tangible products & services.
What’s that curse about living in interesting times?
Funny in a way as when I was a young child in NYC and went to Columbia ( same school Barron went to as a young kid ( Columbia Prep ( but it was Columbia Grammar when I was there ) they tested the shit outa me btw the ages of 5 to 8 etc.
Then Walt Disney hired me so life went tumbling but….but, to Thiel
Thiel is so smart it is scary. Because for me ( even leaving Palantir out of the equation ( if even possible ) his vision of the future, well. Lets say I don’t believe he’s been entirely forthcoming, so I’m happy ( wrong word ) to hear more to ferret out his ultimate goals.
It just freaks me out that Thiel and his ilk are building the prefect beast. I wonder what his feeling about folks like Kurzweil or Geordie Rose and their Quantum Computing “D-Wave” stuff? and whether or not they are on the same page vis a vis how they see and envision and are actually shaping the “future” so many will be living in.
I suppose what I’m saying is? I think his whole “Libertarian bent” is an act. I think Palantir to be intrinsically evil ( yeah it’s there to find terrorists is an oversimplification of the usefulness of the tech ) and he and Kurzweil are probably best pals re their “life extension stuff. Didn’t Thiel form a new venture re artificially creating and mfg’ing “young blood”? ( hmmm… a rose is a rose by any other name ( ahem ).
I just heard a cpl hours of him last week and am sufficiently recovered to hear some more.
Thanks for posting it Zephyrbreeze! ( notice not a word about Weiss lol who cares…)
Listen to your instincts.
I pray that the Holy Spirit guide us and open our eyes to the nature of this evil.
There are only a few things I do daily that are not autonomic.
My prayers are, and devotional time are one. The most important to me.
Table Tennis is another ( not to be flippant but a man’s gotta MOVE 🙂
There is a litmus test, Unless the likes of Musk, Thiel and Ramaswamy immediately champion true open source and open standards for the chokepoints intended to enslave us – it will be the “Beast”.
” they tested the shit outa me btw the ages of 5 to 8 etc.”
Spooks. When our kids were in school in the 90’s there was a “Talent Identification Program”. One of our kids was selected to participate at Duke University’s. He was exposed to computer programming, art, film, classic literature. As a great blessing in the end – his critical thinking skills were not so well appreciated and they left him alone.
“spooks”
You don’t say 😉
Think it was “random” I ended up in Burbank working for Walt the year + before he died?
I don’t.
Halfway through college this son got recruited for a film production opportunity in FBI. Wisely, he politely declined 😉
I hear ya.
I was an “Illuminatti Reject”.
Thanks God and – Praise be.
I’ve sat here watching the interchange between you and sDee (and zephyrbreeze & wsb).
Highly prescient by all.
2 things I would like to add to:
1. The discussion on the VC with regards to Vivek, Musk and Thiel – I have and still do think these guys are all IC recruited, groomed, funded and controlled and still are. Some may be direct by In Q Tel or Darpa, others indirectly (2, 3 or 4 hop) from the IC through shell companies. I think that sDee’s take on it all was very astute and either spot on or real close (ie “hops”) along with Reed’s addition. I think both of you are correct and it’s a combination of what y’all are poistung.
2. Reed and sDee’s son – I, too, have similar circumstances to both. Not sure of sDee’s socioeconomic status, but I presume Reed’s, based on his past personal revelations, is from a more connected well to do familial socioeconomic background. This assumed by background is and has always been a target rich recruiting ground for the IC or related fields.
I was not. From an originally lower class (now middle), Southern Christian, white disenfranchised socially and politically family.
I was eventually heavily tested in high school after 8-9 years of stellar grades and high scores on standardized state tests. After a Stanford Binet was adminstered on me, I was immediately put into the ‘gifted’ program and what is now called AP classes. And my parents were told my scores were ‘extremely’ high.
I watched the other kids in the ‘gifted’ program be selected and sent to all kinds of seminars or programs, very few for me.
At the time, my thoughts were that it was due to my family’s status. As life and life’s events progressed, to include time in the military, it dawned on me what sDee just stated about his son.
It was because I was ‘too critical’ (inquisitive) of a thinker on everything presented to me and my challenging of it.
The excuse given to my mother, at the time, when she inquired why I was being given unequal opportunities to the other gifted students was that I was “too rebellious towards authority” and implied that I was too stringent with regards to ‘principles.’ 👀
As Reed stated, probably an Illuminati reject.
Later, when I went into the military to obtain educational funding, my scores, particularly the GT score, was “way” high. My score was the highest or second highest in my entire unit, enlisted or officer, as I came to find out later after reaching ‘permanent party.’ This type unit has nothing but high scores. The bar to even considered is highest.
I was offered every conceivable MI MOS available with bonuses. I chose one in HUMINT. As I worked this field for my short career 1 term enlistment, I came to realize what we did and what was being told to the public was very, very wrong. Internally amongst colleaguesand auperiors, I asked a lot of unpleasant questions and made some verbal observations that were not well taken, though true to the nth degree, ie nothing to get into trouble about.
No to very little effort was made to advance me in schools, training or rank, nor to retain me, not that I planned on continuing after my experiences.
Based on my thinking now and you two guys’ conversation on this subject today, I think that ‘they’ had decided once again that I was not ‘suitable’ for future use, if you know what I mean.
It has cost me advancement even in my career since then, late start, same traits, though I’ve done on ok.
But for all my faults and sins, and they are equally as great, I’ve never considered being a participant, regardless od the payoff, of something that is remotely related to doing ‘the people’ wrong.
At least my conscience is clear in that regard.
I appreciate so much of what you post and if I were not now in recovery mode I would have more to proffer.
Suffice it to say you have presumed correctly re my upbringing ( though I was raised in fact, by wolves ) and the socio-economics of it. Yet the fact is I was BORN in a five story Lower East Side Manhattan walkup. But by the time I was 8 and moved to LA for the Disney gig ( I swear the guy told me to call him “Uncle Walt” – ( tip to kids… never call a stranger with a pencil thin mustache “Uncle” even if he pays you $500.00 a week in 1965 lol ) but by the time we had left NYC we lived in a Central Park Apt overlooking the park. Quite a step up on the socio-economic ladder.
Working at the highest levels of the music business even in the mid-sixties had it’s perks. Only reason la familia did not remain at Columbia was – CLIVE DAVIS as he became President of the label.
I have had the highest highs and the lowest lows. Made and spent many millions and I don;t give a shit about anything. I kept my SOUL.
To borrow from James Taylor: “Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain I’ve seen sunny days I thought would never end but I always thought that Id see you one more time again – – – ( and ) ya gotta look down upon me Jesus, and help me make a stand – just got to see me through another day my body is aching and my time is at hand – for I won’t make it any other way” !!!!
And yes, I was deadly serious re “Illuminatti Reject”. I lived that LA music business “dream” and it becomes a nightmare for so many.
Half of ’em are fleeing the United States lately. The hunted.
My takeaway re “earthly stuff”? Is you come in alone, you go out alone and I truly thank God that – I was an “illuminatti reject” for it surely could have gone another way.
But for Sdee’s righteous admonition.
“trust your instincts and, yours BK, as you say – “my conscience is crystal clear” – peace be unto, you my brother.
( sorry all for the rant y’all. 2 hours of hard core TT and I’m plum tuckered out LOL )
BK…..
👊 👊 👍
I can relate to what you have written.👏
Different “playgrounds”… but basically the same.
Gut instinct? Self preservation? Don’t know 🤷♀️ 💁
My conscience is also clear.
Funny, I worked for The Mouse once, but only in France!!! Outside contractor.
Photoshopped.
^ Agreed.
Gee, did the MAGA hat give it away, maybe!?!
Interesting things to ponder about women and women’s rights.
Wakey, wakey!
The Tweet below has this message followed by a great eye opening/awakening one minute clip.
“Where are all the feminists and why is the silence so deafening? This lady has a good point and women are getting cancelled in front of our eyes.”
https://x.com/jineeminee/status/1646864128097632258
Abso-freaking- lootly!
Just cheer on cancelling yourselves, ladies.
Does that make sense to you?
It the hell makes zero sense me.
These freaks need to remain in their own genitalia lane. 🍆🏀🏀
(Stay out of my bathroom while you are at it!) 🚽
Speaking of cheering…
If a man punches a woman in the face, then he gets put in handcuffs, correct? Violence against women will not be tolerated.
However, if a man punches a woman in the face inside a boxing ring during the recent Olympics, then not only is it ok, but people cheer, and they put a medal around the guy’s neck.
Nope! Can’t make any sense of it.
Wakey, wakey!
I have posted over and over the feminists and other women (and men) who have been fighting this all along, with everything they’ve got; but guess what? I’m not going to bother anymore, because no matter how much I refute this, people want to blame the girls for their predicament.
One of the people pushing this globalist goal was just awarded a high position in our government. What does that tell us?
Yes there are females who cheer for this. This is a top-down, global movement, one that even the Trump family was in favor of until they were against it.
Whoa.
Illegal immigration…
Is this real spending or just laundering?
Laundering, it appears to be a built into everything they touch.
But look at the enormous value we reap.

“Trump takes home the trophy for top-tier trolling”
That sounds like President Trump.
It boggles the mind, the contrast between this version of Trump and the Trump making the horrid nominations, presenting filthy human beings as worthy of such honors.
It just does not compute.
THAT!! Is why we love POTUS!!
Canada the new 51st state! L O L.
What a wicked individual!!
2021 Coup d’état: democrats / GOPe’s coup d’état against America’s Constitutional Republic, its Constitution and President Trump.
Some may not be familiar with the illegal certification lawsuits brought by the Brunson brother’s over the past 4 years. They were brought up to the Supreme Court. These are the cases that the Supreme Court could use to declare the biden / harris administration was illegally certified as the winner of the 2020 election.
Their cases are based on some members of Legislative branch and the Executive Branch not following their oaths to investigate the 2020 election in the 1/6/2021 proceedings. Below is the statement of the first case filed:
STATEMENT OF THE CASE
This action is against 388 federal officers in their official capacities which include President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr, Vice President Kamala Harris, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and former Vice President Michael Richard Pence (“Respondents”). All the Respondents have taken the required Oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic, and as such they are liable for consequences when they violate the Oath of Office.
Respondents were properly warned and were requested to make an investigation into a highly covert swift and powerful enemy, as stated below, seeking to destroy the Constitution and the United States, Respondents purposely thwarted all efforts to investigate this, whereupon this enemy was not checked or investigated, therefore the Respondents adhered to this enemy. Because of Respondents intentional refusal to investigate this enemy, Petitioner Raland J Brunson (“Brunson”) brought this action against Respondents because he was seriously personally damaged and violated by this action of Respondents, and consequently this action unilaterally violated the rights of every citizen of the U.S.A. and perhaps the rights of every person living, and all courts of law.
On January 6, 2021, the 117th Congress held a proceeding and debate in Washington DC (“Proceeding”). This Proceeding was for the purpose of counting votes under the 2020 Presidential election for the President and Vice President of the United States under Amendment XII. During this Proceeding over 100 members of U.S. Congress claimed factual evidence that the said election was rigged. The refusal of the Respondents to investigate this congressional claim (the enemy) is an act of treason and fraud by Respondents. A successfully rigged election has the same end result as an act of war; to place into power whom the victor wants, which in this case is Biden, who, if not stopped immediately, will continue to destroy the fundamental freedoms of Brunson and all U.S. Citizens and courts of law.
Due to the fact that this case represents a national security breach on a unprecedented level like never before seen seriously damaging and violating Brunson and coincidently effects every citizen of the U.S.A. and courts of law. Therefore, Brunson moves this court to grant this petition, or in the alternative without continuing further, order the trial court to grant Brunson’s complaint in its fullest. Brunson’s complaint is the mechanism that can immediately remove the Respondents from office without leaving this country vulnerable without a President and Vice President.
Despite the grave importance of this case, the trial court granted Respondents motion to dismiss (“Motion”) by stating “IT IS ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that plaintiff Raland Brunson’s action is dismissed without prejudice”. (“Order”) This Order followed the trial court’s order to adopt its report and recommendation that Brunson did not get until close to the beginning of Oct. 2022 thus prejudicing Brunson from timely filing any objections, and the Order did not properly address Brunson’s opposition to the Motion. Brunson’s opposition clearly shows that Brunson has standing.
Per Brunson’s opening brief and as outlined in Brunson’s said opposition (both not properly addressed by the lower courts) Brunson’s has standing and the trial court has full proper jurisdiction to rule on the merits of this case based upon the following factors:
CONCLUSION
This petition is set forth in the interest of justice in protecting Brunson’s right to petition for a redress of grievances against the Respondents, and ensuring his right of due process against the encroachment of the doctrine of equitable maxim, and charging the Respondents who failed to investigate the allegations of a rigged election by having them removed from office without further delay.
The Brunson brother’s 2020 election fraud cases listed the specific members of the legislative and executive branches who didn’t follow their oaths. Below is the list from the first suit.
PARTIES TO THE PROCEEDING
Petitioner Raland J Brunson is an individual representing himself and is a Plaintiff in the trial court.
The following 388 Respondents are a party to this action as defendants in the trial court:

Thank you for your hard work.

This is very interesting, Cactus! I have not heard anything about this?
Me neither. They must be afraid of it as they have censored it completely.
Thank you for keeping this alive here for others to see.. Surely hoping it gets addressed in the near future!
“These are the cases that the Supreme Court could use to declare the biden / harris administration was illegally certified as the winner of the 2020 election.” Anyone here believe the Supreme Corrupt Court will actually make such a declaration? They should but my guess is they won’t! JMO
Sometimes things are that easy to explain. Wow.

She’s what we call a “Dumb Rican.”
The American people should demand full public tribunals for treason of the federal judges who refuse to allow arrested J6 defendants to have speedy trials after YEARS of incarceration. It is the judges themselves who deserve indefinite detention, under the same inhuman conditions they have gleefully imposed on Americans protesting their government’s tyranny. These scoundrels have proven they are unfit to have ANY judicial power over the American people. These are heinous crimes against the U.S. Constitution and make a mockery of the concept of impartial justice. These federal judges are as ruthless as ANY tyrants throughout world history.
I agree I wonder if the Judges that are not following the Constitution are following their Lodge orders? The Constitution is ‘supposed’ to be the law of the land, so unless as James Trafficant put into the Congressional Record that Roosevelt declared American bankruptacy and the Bankers took over and then switched America to a “Democracy”? They all can’t be communist party card carrying members can they?
A: No. Some are Nazis.

Great short clip that truly explains what the purpose of the whole Ukraine debacle was-Mike Benz is fantastic.
Here’s the Kash Patel interview with Shawn Ryan. It’s queued to the 1:25:17 mark. From that point to the 1:32:00 mark they discuss Afghanistan. Kash mentions China and Russia are now free to go in there and mine all the minerals. They cover so much geopolitical ground in these seven minutes that I thought it was worth highlighting.
In Afghanistan for the minerals. Minerals are the new “blood diamond”, minerals used for electric cars, electric cars cause more adverse effects on the environment than conventional gas automobiles, all these “energy independence” schemes are not creating more independence but are actually lessening it as they make us more dependent on other countries for their production of “Green” technology.
President Trump sure did nail it when he rebranded the “Green New Deal” as the “Green New Scam”.
Look what they did in Africa. Backed China/Soviet backed terrorists against our Christian allies & friends and turned Pro-Western Christian nations into 3rd world racist Liberal hellholes that are being exploited by China, note Biden’s trip to Angola.
In the Angola War which was fought after Portugal’s government was color revolutioned as they refused to abandon their provinces in Angola & Mozambique and their peoples who had been living there for hundreds of years, our good old double talking traitorous IC allowed massive armaments & troops from Cuba to go to join the Angola War against the Christians. Meanwhile their Mockingbird media tells the American people for decades that we were fighting “Communism”. So Biden’s Angola trip is very interesting, I wonder what the real game is there
Thank you. You and others here have a much deeper understanding of world history than I do.
I’m trying to play catch up.
We get caught up in U.S. politics, but I believe what’s taking place is the collapsing of a global empire. An evil global empire is being dismantled.
It truly is a global liberation operation. When President Trump says, “The Best is yet to come”, I believe it to mean the Best for all citizens across the globe.
We are entering a Renaissance period.
My salutations MM.
Apparently its for minerals.
One of the major items on Biden’s agenda is a visit to the town of Lobito, where his administration has lavished billions on an 835-mile railroad that is supposed to link cobalt, lithium, and copper mines in the Congo and Zambia to Angola’s Atlantic ports.
The “Lobito Corridor” project was billed as the first serious Western attempt to provide African nations with an alternative to China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). It is not yet clear if the second Trump administration will continue funding the project. Trump may be skeptical of a rail line that could benefit Chinese companies as much as it does American interests and, if Africa’s mineral nations make good on their plans to develop more domestic refining capacity, the Lobito Corridor might never become as profitable as its planners hoped.

Part of that trip is avoidance of real conversation around his pardon.
Looks like New Hampshire plates. This guy gave them a lesson from the “Live Free or Die” state. Truly a thing of Beauty!
“Law enforcement” is to be respected. This is especially true for those who are members of law enforcement.
It’s not an easy task. It’s not a simple on/off toggle switch. It takes constant vigilance and a constant recalibration to always make sure you are part of the solution and not part of the problem.
I hope these guys took this as an awakening to ensure they are on the right side.
Know your oath. Know what your job is and most importantly, know what your job isn’t.
Peacefully and Patriotically, in accordance with the rule of law.
Saw this before. Really wonder if they are actual FBI? Contracted out?
Good question
They guys who raided Mark Houck’s family should be fired by Kash on day 1, escorted from the building and their personal belonging mailed to them.
Amen 🙏✝️🙏

Fred Sanford approves of the Ripple investment.
well I just woke from the most awful nightmare. I dreamed we’d had another election night fiasco where President Trump was declared the winner, everything up to today was happening, then BAM out of the blue they said no Kamala won. OMG I woke up screaming, crying and it was the most awful ripping in my chest. It seemed so real. I was in a hotel somewhere and the people next door were Kamala supporters and they were whopping and hollering. It.was.awfu.
was sobbing to someone that Melania would not get to wear her beautiful dress or gown or get to decorate the WH again. I think the HIDEOUS decor at the WH this year brought this on. It looks like an LGBT carnival going on up there. And since when did they start making speeches? I don’t remember Melania ever giving a speech to explain what they meant. They never ever set up a podium for her as far as I can remember.
I propose we make CTH a no dream/nightmare zone!!! 🤣🤣🤣

This is the only theory that makes sense IMO about Thomas Crooks. https://georgewebb.substack.com/p/five-months-later-evidence-still.
This is in response to Biden’s Angola visit.
Ally Myorkas is a Cuban Communist in The District of Criminality..
Both Bernie and Jill can pack their bags for the communist paradise of Cuba, or, perhaps to the 51st state, where Castro’s spawn tenuously holds onto power.
If Trudeau remembers anything that Bronco Bama taught him, he’s probably thinking that Canada would become the 58th State.
Barry is still hiding his cherished photos of his secret meeting with his hero Fidel.
Let it out, brother! Come out of that closet, man, let your freak flag fly!
You know you want to.
I can’t even fathom why they continue to live in our non-communist country.
In Cuba’s struggle for freedom, prisoner of conscience Jose Daniel Ferrer is a symbol of resilience |
Babalú Blog:
“The communist Castro dictatorship hoped that imprisoning and torturing Jose Daniel Ferrer would put an end to his resistance. Instead, the case of the brave Ferrer has become an even more painful thorn in their side…”
Things rhyme…..communists, socialists, dictators same then, same now.
“Cuban involvement: Idi Amin’s Uganda received military and economic aid from Cuba, particularly during the late 1970s. This support was part of Cuba’s broader policy of backing leftist and anti-imperialist governments in Africa.
Military assistance: Cuba provided training and equipment to Uganda’s military, which was instrumental in Idi Amin’s brutal suppression of opposition groups and civilians.
Economic ties: Uganda and Cuba signed economic agreements, including trade deals and development projects. Cuba also provided technical assistance in areas like agriculture and healthcare.
Strategic alignment: Idi Amin’s Uganda and Cuba shared a common anti-Western and anti-Israeli stance, which strengthened their bilateral ties. Amin’s regime was also critical of Western imperialism and supported Palestinian liberation movements.
Comparison with other backers: While Cuba was one of Idi Amin’s key backers, he also received support from other socialist states, including Syria and North Korea. However, Cuba’s involvement was more significant and enduring.
It’s essential to note that Idi Amin’s regime was notorious for its human rights abuses, brutality, and economic mismanagement. The Cuban support, while significant, did not justify or excuse these atrocities.”
Castro was a mean, nasty Communist Dictator who terrorized his citizens and today what is left of the Counrty cannot keep the lights on.

Seems to me that the one who was in charge of Biden and had to know what he and Hunter were up to should be getting some of the wrath for the father and his bag man selling out the country and now getting away with it. Obama shouldn’t be immune from responsibility as well as all the rats who were promoting FJB until the debate. The only thing they cared about was that he couldn’t win – not his crimes.
That whole party is nothing but crooks.

The US Government is funding “investigative journalists” that seem to just be an extension of the ds and brag about changing the government of six different countries. This needs to come to an end.
“JUST IN: Outlet Linked To Trump Impeachment Is Majority-Funded By U.S., Bombshell Reveals”
Excerpts:
A startling new investigation has revealed that the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), an investigative journalism juggernaut with a hand in shaping global political narratives—including the first impeachment of President-elect Donald Trump—is majority-funded by the U.S. government. The report was published by Drop Site News in partnership with European investigative outlets.
The OCCRP, which has worked on high-profile exposés, received at least 52% of its funding from U.S. federal agencies such as USAID over the past decade. Since its inception in 2008, the organization has secured at least $47 million from American taxpayers, with an additional $12 million already committed.
Sullivan proudly noted that OCCRP’s investigations have influenced governmental changes in multiple nations. “We’ve probably been responsible for about five or six countries transitioning from one government to another,” Sullivan said.
The investigation also revealed that OCCRP partners with high-profile media outlets like The Washington Post, The New York Times, and The Guardian. These collaborations add weight to OCCRP’s work but may now face backlash over the organization’s funding sources.

Excellent article on what Javier Milei in Argentina has accomplished and what DOGE CAN accomplish.
“DOGE (and Fiscal Reform) Will Double Your Income. In Two, Five, at the outside Ten Years”
Excerpts:
Milei found that government offices were lying about all the stats. Every single one. They were lying about unemployment, they were lying about inflation, they were lying about government debt, they were lying about the poverty rate. They had run up prices through theft and regulation, then fixed prices, and lo and behold, no one could afford to make or import anything so there was nothing to buy.
“We found that 13.5% of GDP was from money printing.”
Biden printed almost $10 trillion in the past four years, shoved it into the economy, mostly by funding bank debt, hiring government workers and calling it growth. Therefore, roughly an equivalent %age of the U.S. GDP is from money printing. Which means the real growth rate is around -5%. That’s what real people are facing — feeling outside of the sheltered neighborhoods, we are losing 5% a year. Which means every year, we lose more agency, are more enslaved to debt.
In order to keep the theft going, government officials had to corrupt the media, corrupt the judiciary, corrupt the central bank, corrupt the economic ministries who kept the stats. All of these people had to be either paid off or threatened. The same is happening in the U.S. and Canada. In Europe. In Scandi. In Australia.

There aren’t going to be any recess appointments nor will any of Trump’s most radical reform cabinet nominees make it through confirmation. So, talking about them is as pointless as discussing how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. Gaetz is already gone.
Thune: “I think that all options are on the table, including recess appointments. Hopefully, it doesn’t get to that but we’ll find out fairly quickly whether the Democrats want to play ball or not.” Asked by Fox News host Bret Baier Thursday night about the use of possible “recess appointments” to allow Trump to fill the vacancies while the Senate is out or in recess, Thune said it would be an option, but all Republicans would have to vote to recess.
Of course the Dims won’t “play ball”! That right there shows you what a BS comment that is. IMO, neither will he, the F-rated (51%) replacement for the F-rated (44%) McConnell nor will the 20 F and D rated “Republicans” who aren’t about to allow the destruction of their true owners, the Deep State/Blob, on their watch. That is even more vital now than in 2017 when they didn’t allow Trump to make recess appointments. Thune is simply avoiding the calls, faxes, and emails he’d get if he stated the truth.
GOP Senator Susan Collins [F 20% Liberty Score] Throws a Wrench in Trump’s Cabinet Plans
November 20, 2024
https://www.westernjournal.com/gop-senator-susan-collins-throws-wrench-trumps-cabinet-plans/
Collins told Axios that the Senate’s constitutional “advice and consent” duty for Trump’s appointees “means a background check, it means extensive committee investigations and questionnaires and public hearings.”
The moderate [LOL! See how they call a Dimocrat RINO a “moderate” – W] GOP senator also said that she would be against Trump making recess appointments asserting it would be a way to “avoid and evade the Senate’s constitutional duty to do advice and consent.”
All they need to do is this which is done to preclude recess appointments by preventing a recess of the session:
What Are Pro Forma Sessions in Congress?
The term pro forma is a Latin term meaning “as a matter of form” or “for the sake of form.” While either chamber of Congress can hold them, pro forma sessions are most often held in the Senate.
Typically, no legislative business, such as the introduction or debate on bills or resolutions, is conducted during a pro forma session. As a result, pro forma sessions rarely last more than a few minutes from gavel-to-gavel.
There are no constitutional restrictions on how long pro forma sessions must last or what business may be conducted in them.
While any Senator or Representative present can open and preside over a pro forma session, the attendance of other members is not required. Indeed, most pro forma sessions are conducted before nearly empty chambers of Congress.
A Senator or Representative from one of the nearby states of Virginia, Maryland or Delaware is usually chosen to preside over pro forma sessions since members from other states have usually left Washington, D.C. for vacations or meeting with constituents in their home districts or states.
And don’t point out how BHO and Bush made so many recess appointments. Those were all Deep State/Blob lackeys. Plus:
Nov 18, 2024 – Obama frequently used recess appointments until 2014, when the Supreme Court ruled that he had exceeded his authority by making them when Congress had gone out of session only briefly.
And about Turtle’s replacement:
What To Know About Trump’s Relationship With John Thune—Including Rocky Past
Nov 13, 2024
https://www.forbes.com/sites/mollybohannon/2024/11/13/what-to-know-about-trumps-relationship-with-john-thune-including-rocky-past/
Thune and Trump’s relationship began in 2016 when—after endorsing him for president months earlier—Thune became the first Republican leader to call on Trump to withdraw from the presidential race after the infamous Access Hollywood tape was made public.
Shortly after calling on Trump to leave the race and give the nomination to then-vice presidential candidate Mike Pence, Thune said he would still “support the nominee of our party … but he’s got a lot of work to do, I think, if he’s going to have any hope of winning this election.”
The pair hit another road bump in 2020 when Trump maintained the election was stolen, but Thune encouraged people to “move on” and accept the outcome.
Thune also said any attempt by House conservatives to challenge the results of the Electoral College would “go down like a shot dog”—the comments drew ire from Trump, who said on Twitter Thune’s “political career (is) over!!!” and “South Dakota doesn’t like weakness.”
Trump later encouraged South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem to run against Thune—who he called a “RINO,” or Republican in name only—when he was up for reelection in 2022 (Noem had previously said Thune “is a friend of mine, and I will not be challenging him.”)
Thune did not vote to convict Trump in either of his impeachment trials [neither did Turtle – W], but issued a harsh statement [just like Turtle – W] after the second one stating his vote to acquit Trump was not “an exoneration for his conduct on” Jan. 6, 2021.
Trump did not endorse Thune during his reelection bid in 2022 and after Thune won, he said the broad Republican losses were evidence the party couldn’t rely on Trump, saying “You can’t have a party that’s built around one person’s personality.”
And about Trump getting any cooperation from CONgress, the “Republicans” have the smallest majority in the House they have had in 90 years with 12 seats there likely stolen thanks to RNC/GOP incompetence according to the Fractal scanning team. They also say 4 Senate seats were likely lost to the same.
SO, the phony opposition party is right where they want to be with a puny majority where they will be able to obstruct Trump with the usual “insufficient majority” excuse. Recall how they have used the “we need control of the House, Senate, AND White House to do real stuff” and then didn’t do anything radical when they did… because UNIPARTY as everyone here should well know.
Without a line item veto capability, vetoes are neutered, too. Any veto holdout adequate to force his will – a lengthy shutdown of the fedgov including no federal checks of any kind sent out – would face a certain 2/3 override because of the unacceptable political cost of that to BOTH halves of the Uniparty.
SO, Trump is, ONCE AGAIN going to rule via EOs which can go away as soon as he leaves office.
we have a 4 years head start to prepare for what is coming
use it wisely.
LOL, if you are referring to some kind of revolution, good luck.
There are 74 million Harris voters who will gladly turn you in just like the so many German civilians cooperating with the Stasi in East Germany did and former Stasi personnel have actually said that the current surveillance states in the West are something they could only dream about.
Also, with the those 74 million easily propagandized useful idiots, these required outcomes of some kind of productive revolt simply won’t happen even if there was some kind of collapse:
Only a Collapse and Total Reboot Can Fix Our Bloated Government System
NOVEMBER 14, 2016
https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/tony-corvo/2016/11/14/only-a-collapse-and-total-reboot-can-fix-our-bloated-government-system-n48938
Excerpt:
Conservatives keep voting for candidates thinking that they will fix the bugs, but let’s look at what this approach would take. In one form or another we will have to:
1) Elect at least a generation of conservative supermajorities in both chambers of congress. They have to be supermajorities because parliamentary rules allow for political minority actions to stop simple majority legislation.
2) We will have to elect a string of conservative presidents to work with the conservative congresses. We can’t have activist presidents who govern by executive actions in order to bypass congress.
3) True constitutionalists must be nominated and approved to the Supreme Court.
4) Conservatives will have to control at least 37 state legislatures, because sooner or later we will need to make constitutional amendments.
To conclude, the Republic was hopelessly beyond reform [FUBAR] many decades ago, probably even back in the 90s when I first awakened to the existence of the Uniparty.
I am quite sure the true number of PEOPLE is far less. “Election Fraud” was very active this year, too.
100%
I’ve been prepping for the last 4 years, and am so relieved the past 3 weeks that I don’t have to “stock up” for the next 3 years. Quite a weight has been lifted knowing we will have someone who cares about us and how we live going into the Whitehouse in 47 days.
Why Trump Didn’t Win – Harris Lost, And 4 Senate Seats Were Stolen
Every grifter was the one – the one who put Trump over the top – but the Senate and House seats tell the real story. RINOs are in charge!
Omega4America (aka Fractal)
Dec 02, 2024
https://omega4america.substack.com/p/why-trump-didnt-win-harris-lost-and
[snip]
In 2025, if Repubs lose only one House seat, they are dead in the water – so where’s the win? Where is that ground game?
Republicans have the smallest lead in the House in 90 years – smaller than last year, smaller than this morning. So where’s that ground game?
Did those new voters from those effective voter drives vote for Trump then decide to neuter his programs by voting for Leftist House members?
Trump in Wisconsin but Tammy Baldwin too?
As soon as Trump was declared the winner, the Repubs checked out.
No fight for the 4 stolen senate seats.
[snip]
When DJ won, everything just stopped, everyone packed up, and the grifters published in their Federalist rag about how they won it for the Trumpster.
Our data, and that of the Washington Post proves they didn’t impact anything.
The Lefties Substack piece also shows they never saw a Repub ground game – so they were not threatened by it.
Our contacts on the ground in the swing states found the Republican ground game non-existent.
The grifter class in both parties is using the grifters in the other party to get their 2026 grift funded.
[snip]
Pretty clearly Trump’s scalps will come from exec orders because he has about zero power to do anything in the House – where the dollar legislation starts. So forget changing the tax system or doing anything that the RINOs don’t like.
The House narrative will soon be about how a group of 25 “GOP moderates” now rule the House, tamping down anything the Freedom Caucus wants to bring forward. You know those headlines – you see them all the time.
Don’t believe me?
Check this out from the Wall street Journal:
“The Inflation Reduction Act has channeled billions of dollars to renewable-energy projects across the country, with Republican-led states getting the lion’s share of the funding. Even though not a single Republican in the House or Senate backed the Democratic package, today there likely isn’t enough support in Congress to pass a repeal, according to Capitol Hill watchers and former Trump administration officials who worked on energy policy.”
So the most onerous legislation other than ObamaCare – the Inflation Reduction Act – isn’t going to get repealed.
Why? Because the RINOs control the House and the Senate.
Why do they control the House and Senate?
Because about every marginal race went to the Lefties – so who’s in control?
[snip]
That’s why I’ve always said electing Trump is Step 1.
Step 2 is finding, supporting, campaigning for and voting for MAGA/MAGA-lite candidates for 2025 off-cycle local and state elections and the 2026 mid-terms.
If we can drum up turnout, then we can make it too big to rig again, primary the Rino’s and give a middle finger to McConnell/Thune not supporting the voters.
The 2026 election is almost more important that 2024 in that if we the people create a Red Tsunami then we are validating Trump’s EO and we’ll have a shot at making statutory changes.
All/most of the seats were “stolen” (flipped well after Election Day in CA where the Dems have a super majority – they legislated in the cheat.
I would say the most important thing is taking the Scott Presler model and duplicating it in all 50 states. Mid-term and off-cycle election turnout is abysmal (that’s why you have Dem governors in places like LA and KY). We need we every single one who voted for Trump in 2024 to TURNOUT and vote in the primaries in 2025, 2026 and the mid-terms.
Questions need to be asked why wasn’t the RNC more attuned to what was happening in these Senate races? And the House, maybe a one seat majority? Are you kidding me? PDJT runs the tables in the Electoral College, and takes the popular vote, and we’re are sitting with a razor thin majority? Let’s hope all the Republican members can get to work (present for duty), and stay healthy. And let’s not leave out Don Bacon. He’s salivating, is my bet, that he can be the John McCain of the House.
I frankly would like to see “recess appointments” become outlawed. No matter how “inconvenient” it may seem, “the Advice and Consent of the Senate” should not be bypassed. You should have to have 51 people agree with your proposal after 100 have formally looked at it. These are powerful and influential officers, and they should not be appointed swiftly. “Slow down. Be sure.”
I couldn’t disagree more. How convenient to use the advice and consent to prevent a president from executing his duties. The recess appointments is the safety valve.
I’ll accept that dissenting point of view … thanks for sharing.
Let democrats take the high road for a change and do away with it when they are in the White House and MAGA republicans control the senate.
Recess appointments is in the Constitution. You can’t just pass a law. You either need to amend the constitution or get the Supreme Court to rule that the current usage is not what the founding fathers intended.
It’s also kind of an open question as to how “advice and consent” was intended to be used. Was it really intended to allow the senate veto power over staffing an administration? Taken to the extreme, a Dem Senate could simply deny any cabinet appointee except ones they hand-selected, potentially even from their own party.
At the time, the consent of the Senate meant the consent of the States. Now with the Senate elected by popular vote they are more like the House, which Hamilton kept away from the consent. If I could amend the Constitution I would give the appointment consent to the state governors.
I would agree if the Senate was still seated as defined in the constitution. Today, there are dozens of installed senators and they are bent on covering that up and thwarting any effort to address the problem.
Will Scott Bessent’s 3-3-3 plan work?
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/in_focus/3245798/will-scott-bessent-3-3-3-plan-work
One good thing. I didn’t give that much thought to NATO, until I heard candidate Trump talking about it.
Since that long ago time, we’ve seen NATO become a VERY big deal.
Some of us here have recently been talking about NATO as being a problem, as being THE problem, in and of itself, and how taking it away would be a yuge step toward peace, or a step away from war, at least.
I’m starting to see some of our thinking move upward, toward people with more influence than we as individuals have.
The ‘debate’ used to be over NATO membership and funding; now it’s starting to switch to NATO’s existence.
If you don’t think NATO is an obsolete relic and promoter of neocon interventionist nonsense and paranoia, listen to Mark Rutte, the new NATO Gauleiter:
Fair point. Sometimes we think things ought to continue to exist just because we can’t imagine them not existing. But NATO was put in place to prevent the Soviet Union from conquering all of Europe in the aftermath of WWII.
I’m not at all convinced that Putin wants to rule western Europe. I sure wouldn’t
And a large, well armed organization that has no reason to exist anymore will certainly seek to create reasons to continue to exist.
If tomorrow NATO, the UN and the Western 5 Isee /MIC didn’t exist we’d have a great head start for whirled peas.
^ 100% !!!!
