Listen very carefully to what this guy says at minute 11:11
What is he talking about?
He is talking about the nearly 6,000 inventions that have been suppressed by the Inventions Secrecy Act
https://www.statista.com/statistics/257098/number-of-patent-applications-stifled-by-us-government-secrecy-orders/
It is rumored we are way, way, way ahead of China in certain technological advancements.
This could get very interesting.
The Commissioner of Patents can rescind the secrecy orders at any time, with proper notice.

Is it possible that the Chinese have NOT been ableyo steal or most valuable Intellectual Property? That they have spent 20 years spying and reverse engineering. . . really, really outdated tech?
The British let the Japs steal plans for a ship during WWII. On its maidan voyage, the ship sank.
Oh my gosh.
‼️Pennsylvania Judge Found Guilty of Attempted Homicide‼️
Democrat Judge Sonya McKnight of Dauphin County was found guilty of shooting her ex-boyfriend while he was sleeping.
She shot him in the head & the victim is now blind in one eye.
This isn’t the first time McKnight shot someone. In 2019, she shot her husband in the groin — she was never charged.
McKnight will be sentenced on May 28th & faces 30-60 years in prison.

Call me what you want, but how about in English sub-titles so we know what the heck is being said?

This critical strong arm tactic from China only emphasizes the need for exploration for these minerals in the US and definitely underscores the reason for Americas First principals.
Past Administrations have created this potential crisis by allowing China to buy people, industries and politicians at will with nobody or Government entity doing anything about it. Their greed has sold out the people. They will be ok, they have their millions and billions to keep them in a good position.
Time to end this madness and return manufacturing and commerce back to these shores. That is if China will allow it to happen. Obviously this new threat shows us that they have no intention to allow that to happen.
What now Hmmm? China is pushing for a military confrontation in my book.

Look at the posts all through these recent threads and you will see much rejoicing at the economic woes of China now that the US has put 145% tariffs on China.
Do you really think that after those tariffs have hurt China badly, China is just going to keep on sending us whatever we need for our industries? The US knew that we are reliant on the rare earths that come from China for our industries. Did the US really believe that China would keep on supplying whatever we want while we destroy their economy?
Yes, we badly need our own industries and need to produce whatever we need ourselves for our own industries. We should not be reliant on any other country but our own for the things we need. But, we don’t have those capabilities yet.
Do you really think that the US bombing China or sending missiles to destroy places China is going to force them to supply us with whatever we need? I sincerely doubt military action would have that effect and could have really horrible consequences for this country.
100% except the last sentence.
It will take time. He is making it happen faster and less painfully than the alternative.
The Orange Felon has my full confidence and support.
I think Pete got sent out to do damage control.
He wouldn’t be talking about this if there wasn’t any issue.
Good. That what people have to do when they spat in public. Then they have to go repair the rift so that it doesn’t take over the important work that Team MAGA is doing. Now, it is laid to rest and the MSM can move onto the next “high school drama” scandal. It is important that PDJT’s economic team have a public, united front.
Now they are all melting because Lutnick said one thing and someone else said another thing. Oh no!!!
Boy, she really likes to interrupt people when they’re speaking.
We’re not interested in what you have to say honey.
Just ask the questions, then shut up, please.
This Holy Week, Christians around the World remember the Crucifixion of God’s Only Begotten Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and, on Easter Sunday, we celebrate His Glorious Resurrection and proclaim, as Christians have done for nearly 2,000 years, “HE IS RISEN!”
Through the pain and sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross, we saw God’s boundless Love and Devotion to all Humanity and, in that moment of His Resurrection, History was forever changed with the Promise of Everlasting Life.
As we approach this Joyous Easter Sunday, I want to wish Christians everywhere a Happy and very Blessed Holiday. America is a Nation of Believers. We need God, we want God and, with His help, we will make our Nation Stronger, Safer, Greater, more Prosperous, and more United than ever before. Thank you, and HAPPY EASTER!

Thank you for your post. Good info.

PSA
–there is a febreze air freshener spray product that combats pet odors that has ‘castor beans’ on the list of ingredients. The other fabric spray has ‘hydrogenated castor oil’ on the list of ingredients. Use with caution around Fido and Fluffy. I used it heavily, and am not wondering if that is the cause of cancer in my one dog. The vet thinks the amounts are negligible. But I worry. Oh, yeah…and ricin is made from castor beans. I have also read that clove oil is carcinogenic to dogs…clove oil is found in many plug in air fresheners.
Brave AI: while castor oil is used for various purposes including as a laxative and in cosmetics, the presence of these impurities in formulations of polyoxyethylene castor oil means that caution should be exercised, especially regarding prolonged or frequent use.
More likely the vaccines + flea and tick meds + mineral depleted and pesticide and gmo-laden pet food. Anything else, like toxic air freshener, is icing on that cake, IMHO.

Cody Balmer, the Harrisburg man accused of attempting to burn down the PA Governor’s mansion was according to him “a registered socialist.”
He was neither a Republican or Democrat, and frequently shared links from anarchist accounts on Facebook.
Social media posts also show that he supported Black Lives Matter, believed in free universal healthcare as a right, and was a fan of Andrew Yang.
He also shared memes criticizing MAGA supporters, Christians, and the 2nd amendment.

U.S. lithium discovery puts China on the back foot in global race

Amazing.
Was this not in California? I thought we found a huge deposit there. They might as well found a coal vein. Now, I know this is about technology but you still need the lithium and how about we not let the Chinese steal this technology also. Isn’t this trade war, etc is about?

THE GAME PLAN
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2
“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more.
Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it.
He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit.
A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Unseen1 @unseen1_unseen
Here is the game plan that the forces against Trump will be using for the foreseeable future.
They will attempt to get you to make the perfect the enemy of the good.
Be it the freedom clowns and spending, the immigration hawks with H1B visas, the peace doves with timing, the cultural warriors with total bans of DEI/CRT, the neocons with war fighting, or the swamp dwellers with draining the swamp.
All of them will attempt to get you to believe on whatever issue is the issue of the day that it doesn’t go far enough or do enough.
They will try to make you think that some sub issue of that issue is more important and should be handled first, that since the issue hasn’t been handled yet it won’t be, that we can’t do more than one thing, that so and so is a plant to stop the draining of the swamp, or that because it wasn’t 100% Trump lied. On every single issue, one or more groups will attempt this strategy.
You can’t allow them that power over you. If Trump secures the border and deports 2 million, don’t allow them to reduce that good by them saying well he didn’t deport 2.5 million, so he failed or lied.
You can’t allow them to use the perfect to void out the good in the coming months.
They will try. They already have with the CR and the H1b visa debates. It works, that is why they use it.
You have to keep it in the front of your head on everything about to occur that half a loaf or hopefully in most cases 7/8ths a loaf is better than no loaf.
wrong thread
why? This is the open thread.
My prediction: ( And boy I hope I am wrong). Dan Bongino will see the corruption, slow walking, and imbedded deep staters working silently against him and Kash and he will quit. I do not see Bongino trying to work to save an agency if it is shown that Bondi and Kash are also part of the coverup. Hope this never happens, but according to what I see from Gulianni and Fitton we are headed down this road.
