Never knew that the Fight Fight Fight! photo was on display in the White House. Can’t imagine a better context than yesterday:
https://x.com/WarClandestine/status/1957521939490304383
Watch the video a few times. PDJT points to the photo on his R. ALL of the assembled turn to look. EXCEPT Herr Starmer and Von der Lying
Interesting isnt it?
Remember Herr Starmer’s Labour govt sent 100 operatives to Philadelphia to help Kakala win the election.
Hmm
MI6 again? Russia Russia failed so did they orchestrate this?
For those who dont have X, read the comments here:

Herr Starmer Macron and von der lying didnt look

I think we have our answer about why President Trump made a point today of showing Zelenskyy and Von der Leyen his “Fight, Fight, Fight” portrait and mentioning how July 13, 2024 was not a good day.
https://nitter.poast.org/JKash000/status/1957587539071475837#m
Zelenskyy and EU members went to Utah on July 12… Read the above link
It occurred to me that its very likely Macron passes alot of info to Jug Ears Hussein.
Yep, and it’s very likely it’s a two way comms system.
That clip only reinforces my belief that the flyover at JBER was not to threaten President Putin, but to send a message to the back stabbers in this bunch.
Starmer looked like he was in a life threatening struggle just to keep from pooping his pants.
Busted… on the world stage.
I deliberately ignored those arrows every chance I got.

“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.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
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.
Do not allow them to gaslight you into thinking the good is the enemy of the perfect.
In the real world, most things are never perfect, but if we try real hard, we can get plenty of good accomplished in the coming 4 years.
AMEN
President Trump is transparent in his words and actions. He is consistent in what he says, what he does, and what he asks/demands of others. His promises are bold and he keeps them like no other president has. He is making massive, nearly overnight changes, not only in our country, but in the world. It is amazing that he is able to accomplish so much when there are so many snakes in the grass. This term, he is weeding them out faster. No U.S. president has ever faced so much organized resistance and treason than President Trump
The purpose and goals of President Trump are plainly visible by his actions and consistent: He is for the benefit first of the common PEOPLE of this country, then of the PEOPLE in the rest of the world. It is validating, even to our battered conservative skepticism.
The methods of his leadership are amazing. I still don’t get HOW he does it, or HOW he is able to get so much momentum going, but every day the momentum is growing. Everyone and every organization has their eyes opened every day — just by watching him. Even those who hate him, are biased against him, and want to see him gone — cannot ignore him. He lives rent free in their head, and they come around to seeing the universal principles by which he is operating. He hammers actions based on truth from one direction, then another, and they cannot mount an organized opposition against him.
He has chosen to use his intellect and every skill he has to do what is right. He has tremendous faith that he can make a difference in this world. He has a confidence and courage such that he doesn’t care what others think, yet a humility to know he has to do it with the help of like minded people. Those people are the “common” people, and he ridicules those who think they are not common.
He believes people are basically good. He believes that God is real. He believes that healthy people are happy people, and they need to be able to create wealth freely for their labor, and have the freedom to spend their money on what is good for them.
He believes the United States, with its Constitutional Republic, is the best environment in the world to enable and give opportunity for people to be happy and prosperous.
He believes that we can be a light for the world, but we must demand that the rest of the world respect us and our right to life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness.
He believes the enemy of our country are the stupid, greedy American people who have been selfishly taking advantage of this country; who betrayed the trust and obedience of its people; and who diverted the people’s wealth for their own selfish gain, at the expense of the principles of this country. He’s not going to allow that anymore.
He has cultivated and focused the family of MAGA. Identifying those people whose goodness, industriousness, trust, and obedience have been taken advantage of and abused. He has opened our eyes to this abuse, and the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the healthy distrust of government and men with too much power held by our founders. He has recultivated the desire to reclaim our freedoms and rights, and is empowering us with a hope and pathway to reclaim our spiritual and economic freedom.
He wants the US to be a light of hope on the hill for all people. He will negotiate win/win agreements with those nations and countries who respect us; who respect the principles and intent of our Constitution. If you do not respect us, however, we are not going to let you take advantage of our goodness, or share in our wealth at our expense. If you as a nation are treating your people badly, you are going to be treated less favorably by us, until you show that you value your people as much as we value ours.
He is convincing those who are very wealthy (most of whom truly earned their money), that the best economic soil in which to build wealth is in a constitutional republic, which supports the ability of the common man to earn wealth in proportion to his efforts. The economic engine of the United States is the human spirit freed to enjoy the fruits of honest labor, and that engine has more natural and raw horsepower than any other governed economy.
The Trump Train seems to be remarkably aligned with universal principles of Truth, which reflect the will and design of our Creator, and are the best standard by which we should live. These same principles were what our country’s founders used to declare independence, and framed into the Constitution of this nation.
Our founders believed that a nation should preserve the right and freedom of an individual to seek, understand, and live by God’s principles. They believed that free individuals working together in humility would make a stronger nation than a government which dictates its will on the people. President Trump professes and seeks to lead and restore this nation back to these same principles.
These principles resonate deeply within all human beings, down to our DNA in every cell, in our spirits, and produce fruit that “miraculously” multiplies. Because we follow universal principles, we see the snowballing acceleration of momentum on day 212 of the 2nd term of this very stable genius in the history of the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2025.
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
Amen!
You in Nawlins, doll?

Trump just declared WAR on mail-in voting.
This isn’t just another post—it’s the start of the biggest election fight since 2020. Here’s what you need to know 🧵
1/9
Cont reading thread…
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1957479973712810070.html
Guarantee he has a plan. The background pieces are already being woven. The perpetrators of previous fraud about to be neutralized by exposure and lawsuits. The offensive action to stop the fraud will begin and crescendo to climax in a blinding light of exposure to the whole world population, with overwhelming control of the integrity of voting and no opportunity for the cheaters to recover.
Prosecution and justice are important but not the most important.
Winning the war and the vote being the will of the true citizens of this country is what is important. THEN, we can bring justice.
I agree. This is the point of the last 10 years. Get back to a true vote, living Americans only who vote in person, valid ID, paper ballots counted on site, no trunk rides etc.
Then America will self correct as intended by our Founders.
There are a few supreme issues which we should give no quarter:
BOR’s 1 – 2 – 4
Election Integrity
This is our red line.
There are currently election problems in South Korea, Romania, Ukraine, Brazil, Germany and other parts of the world.
President Trump cannot address those without addressing our own corrupt process first.
President Trump has no responsibility to fix elections in other countries…
The “congress”, both dim/commies and spineless republicans, will fight President Trump tooth and nail to prevent this, ’cause they don’t want us to have real elections…
“…and seriously controversial voting machines.”
Remember the reports of european based networks to which US voting results were forwarded and “processed” in the 2020 election? Germany was the country most prominently identified in those reports.
Remember CISA being essentially hijacked by President Trump’s enemies, who had openly bragged about it leading up to the election? They actually went so far as to assure their side that CISA had ways of preventing him from winning.
I’d been thinking there’s significance in the timing of this voting cleanup announcement by POTUS 47 and the events of this last several days.
After seeing the clip showing how he pointed out the “Fight Fight Fight” portrait to his European “guests” in the White House yesterday and in particular how the German reacted, I now feel more certain than ever it’s all part of an elegant plan coming together.
Dear Mr. President,
I know you’re awfully busy right now, but when you get the crime rate tamped down in DC, could you please turn your attention to Rhode Island? They clearly have a special crime problem there and need your help.
Watching the full 6:20 minute version of the video is very enlightening and highly recommended.

Thank you for posting. That was F A N T A S T I C !!!!!!!!!!
Props to Brian Crandall of NBC 10 News and CBS Austin for running a thorough and very professionally done account of the episode.
Apparently there were arrests and charges, and the consequences may not yet be over for Flanagan.

Sad thing is they’ll probably sue especially about the closing the car door on the “friend’s” legs. When clowns embed in the judiciary………
That was my first thought too after seeing the whole video. But after doing a search for the story last night it looks like the story’s got legs, and is likely to travel.
It makes me wonder if getting hit with 3 criminal charges might have taken some of the air out of her balloon. We’ll see.
But we can pretty much bet there are people in her ear encouraging her to sue.
I just want to know one thing. Can we get those cops down here in North Carolina please? Our democrats are just as insane.
Yeah! Weren’t they great??
Yes they were Ma McGriz.
I loved this! That cop was outstanding. Make Arrests of Trespassing Dem Officials Great Again!!!!!

“It makes us long for the day when Eric Swalwell will be arrested.

Sundance recently posted about Kash Patel getting a co-pilot at the FBI.
Some of President Trump’s attorneys appear to be in over their heads.
Talk about timing.
President Trump is pissed at Kash Patel. How do we know?
The Body Language Ghost – a nonverbal body language ‘expert’ – broke down a recent press conference with President Trump, Bondi, Patel and others. In short:
1 – Kash Patel was very uncomfortable
2 – President Trump wasn’t happy
3 – her conclusion was that the crime numbers spouted by Patel were generated possibly by ICE
4 -Kash Patel even tries to engratiate President Trump, who doesn’t buy it.
Worth the watch.
Too much time in Las Vegas for Kash? (He reportedly lives in LV.) That’s as bad as the Epstein binder Bondi fiasco.
P.S. Attorney Harmeet Dhillion appears to continually bring the heat and focus.
Fully fund her department!
If POTUS Trump wants media savvy types, maybe give attorney Bill Shipley – @ShipwreckedCrew – a look as a legal foot soldier. 25 years as a Federal DOJ attorney and a UCLA Law School graduate.
Kash Patel has been a disappointment for me.
I don’t read into the Executive’s opinions or actions. That’s empty speculation. My “read” of this man is that he would be a challenging but “solid” man to work for. He’s got your back. Don’t fear the bus. 🚌
A billionaire’s team has to be composed of people who feel confident to act, and to decide. You’re either going to be an empowered subordinate decision maker, or doomed to be an empty political hack. I think I know which one a man like Trump expects (and, creates).
“Yer Fired!” was a popular, but fictional, TV show. The actors happily played along, and everybody had fun. But it wasn’t really reality.
Any analysis based on physical movements–eyes, hands, feet, legs, arms, mouth, expressions–or measurements of physiological processes–blood pressure, breathing, sweating–that claims to provide insights into a person’s thoughts/ideas/feelings/emotions/credibility is fake.
Any claim of such methods as “science” is fake pseudoscience.
There are NO body-based techniques that are relevant or valid across the population.
“Body language experts” are charlatans preying on gullible public.
There have been various pseudoscience “methods,” usually pushed by a charismatic guru that offer “training,” “certification,” and other trappings of legitimacy. None of them work.
Examples: NLP; polygraph; micro-expressions; phrenology; voice-stress analysis; body language. There are many, many more.
Excerpt from Holistic Contextual Credibility Assessment
90% of communication is non verbal.
“90% of communication is non verbal.”
Sorry, that’s just not true.
Just think about it–what is the nonverbal communication in this comments section? Are we communicating? Common sense tells us that the “90% nonverbal” canard is just not true.
If you’re interested, there’s a long academic deconstruction of the “90% nonverbal” urban legend (opens in a PDF):
https://cornerstone.lib.mnsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1000&context=ctamj
An even better refutation is a video of one of the “Body Language” gurus babbling for 12 minutes about “nonverbal communication.” He opines that 90% of communication is nonverbal–but he talked non-stop for the full 12 minutes. His “nonverbal” communication was him crossing his legs and waving his hands. He completely demolishes his own “nonverbal” claims, and didn’t even realize it!
Thank you for bringing that up.
Wander who get him by ba*ls…..
So-called “body language experts” are overrated, much like witch doctors and practitioners of voodoo.
Is there an actual course at school for Body Language expect or do you just
declare yourself one
Many of the body language charlatans do offer “courses” and “certification.”
You can do just as well by flipping a coin, or guessing yourself.
It’s all pseudoscience.
It’s incorporated into some psychology and law enforcement classwork.
1000x yes
Body language analysis is real. It’s a both a science and an art. There are entire sections within law enforcement investigation training dedicated to learning it.
Every single person has subtle and overt tells within the language of the human from breathing to eye movement to skin coloration changes.
“Body language analysis is real. It’s a both a science and an art.”
And so is voodoo. Or tarot card reading. Or palm reading.
The fact that law enforcement proliferates the scams doesn’t make it real.
The best example of the scam is Paul Ekman’s “micro-expressions.”
He conned DHS/TSA into funding a multi-year project–Screening of
Passengers by Observation Techniques (SPOT) program. Ekman “trained” TSA officers to use his “micro-expressions” method to identify terrorists.
Paul Ekman’s SPOT: Failure or Fraud?
Before the GAO reviewed the program, it ran for several years, at a cost of nearly a BILLION dollars. Results? Ekman’s body language program applied across American airports identified exactly zero terrorists.
So, people claiming “body language” expertise are real. Just as fortune tellers are real.
Their methods, “science,” and “art” are NOT real.
I wouldn’t trust a TSA agent to wash my car.
The term “poker face” didn’t come about by accident.
Ever watched a really good poker player play an entire night of cards?
People believe in ‘body language’, and then they get played. Besides, when listening to a body language expert one might very well be just as well served to read up on what said expert’s own biases are.
But for a few thousand in cash I’ll tell you truth, and guess what; you will like everything said because it confirms your own thoughts. (hey, at least I’m being up front about it)
ALL “experts” are overrated!
But, any deaf person will tell you that “body language” and “facial expression” are both effective methods of communication.
– We all saw Putin and President Trump’s warm interactions
– Zelensky implode at Meeting #1
– Kash here gets disapproval and a co-pilot within 24 hours?

REPORT: Marco Rubio State Department Has Revoked 6,000 Student Visas Over Crime and Support for Terrorism
Way back in March of this year, Secretary of State Marco Rubio made it very clear that the United States is no longer going to allow foreign students who commit crimes or show support for terrorism to hold student visas.
In April, it was reported that the State Department had already revoked as many as 4,000 student visas based on this new criteria.
Now it is being reported that Rubio and the State Department have revoked another 6,000 student visas.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/08/report-marco-rubio-state-department-has-revoked-6000/
That’s great! But how do we know if the 6,000 have actually left the country? Did they leave on their own or were they deported by ICE or are some on the run??? Revoked versus deported what’s the ratio? Hopefully 100%!!!

Imam in the heart of New York: “We will not stop until Islam enters every home. We will make every district tremble!”
Are people finally waking up? I sure as hell hope so. Muslim communities are breeding this terror, in most cases with government consent and funding.
And until people demand decisive action en masse, you can expect much more of it—and for things to only get worse. They’re emboldened now, with our societies and institutions deeply infiltrated.
Not to mention, leftists continue embracing these jihadists through suicidal multicultural ideals—the very ingredient that has fueled Islamic takeovers in every nation they’ve conquered and occupied.
Muslims in suits, holding influential positions, exploit their roles to advance jihad: enabling it, diverting taxpayer funds to support it, and shielding the communities that breed this hatred from any criticism.
The bad news: Historically, once Islam reaches these numbers—this level of street control and influence—it never retreats without major intervention.
The even worse news: It literally worsens by the day and nowhere near enough people are demanding that our leaders take decisive action.
I hope people of every faith read this, are paying attention, and find it within themselves to boldly speak up.
And before you accuse me of lumping all “Muslims” together instead of just “Islamists,” ask yourself: —How many Muslims do you hear condemning this hatred? I
f any other community had members acting like this, they’d be ostracized immediately.
Yet in Western Muslim communities, silence or outright support seems to be the norm.
—How many Muslims are standing up to unequivocally denounce the jihadists rioting in our streets over “Palestine”?
—How many mosques, Muslim NGOs, or schools have openly condemned this jihadist hatred and terror?
The few that have, I will support in any way I can. But sadly, they’re rare exceptions. Until that changes, there’s nothing racist about pointing this out. If you have evidence to prove me wrong—countering the thousands of videos like this that have emerged in the last year alone—I’d be happy to apologize and take down this post.

DEPORT THEM ALL !!!!!
And keep their goats…err…coats!
Time for another Crusade?
No, just the daily reminder to always be sufficiently outraged about something somewhere.
This not just “something somewhere”. It is a real problem and people aren’t waking up to it yet.
About 75 years ago.
‘Way past time! Europe is already a lost cause, too late for a Crusade there…
‘Bout time to play cowboys and muslims.
Amen and Amen!!! Well the cult islam isn’t entering this home ever!!!!
How many dead muslims and Americans will it take to clean up the mess that has been made by government?
Perhaps new yorkers should get a pot bellied pig as an indoor pet, save up the pig crap and can it in mason jars waiting for the muslims to “enter their homes”.
Consider another point of view- well informed website about Islam and direct assessments of both history and the Quran – FYI
”
Given Islam’s violent history and the unfavorable contrast that its oppressive practices have against 21st century values, Muslim evangelists are hard-pressed to repackage their faith in the modern age. Apologists have come to rely on tricks involving semantics and half-truths. This propaganda is, in turn, repeated verbatim by other unsuspecting (yet sincere) Muslims and well-meaning progressives outside the faith.
Here we try to expose some of these games, and help truth-seekers find their way through the maze of disingenuous and false claims about Islam and its history. ”

PDJT should have flattened Teheran
One shot to America and Iran should cease to exist.
Israel would have already fixed the Iran problem if we (the USA) would just let them do it..
All hell would rain down on Iran should they give it a try. Empty words they speak.
Sure they can. Do they put invisibility cloaks over their ships too? They think they wouldn’t be seen or noticed by USA security traveling across the ocean towards the states? This is laughable.
This is a trivial problem to solve if they wanted to do so. One doesn’t need military ships…
Nonetheless it’s their standard bluster. If they did such a thing, there would be a very large supply of glass available shortly after.

Egypt aint so wonderful
Egypt’s War Against the World’s Oldest Christian Monastery
The state’s suppression of St. Catherine’s is a microcosm of Egypt’s broader campaign against the country’s Christians—including my family.
https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2025/08/17/egypts-war-against-the-worlds-oldest-christian-monastery/
Excerpt:
What could compel Egypt to change its policy toward St. Catherine?
Military aid, for one thing. Egypt receives $1.4 billion annually, a portion of which is legally conditioned on progress in human rights.
Under the terms of their agreement, the U.S. government is obliged to assess whether Egypt is taking steps to uphold religious freedom and protect minority communities. These obligations are not symbolic, but codified law meant to reflect U.S. values in foreign assistance. Quietly nationalizing one of Christianity’s most sacred sites without consequence calls into question how seriously both Cairo and Washington take those conditions.
In the West, too many Christian so-called pundits and commentators are quick to express their concern over the diminishing Middle East Christian community. Especially in the wake of the Gaza war, these pundits have found endless airtime to moralize about the discrimination against Christian communities in Gaza and the West Bank. Yet most of them remain utterly silent on these brazen attacks on Christianity taking place in Egypt and across the Arab Middle East.

BREAKING: The Department of Homeland Security has just confirmed to me that ICE is seriously considering immigration enforcement at Truck Weigh Stations across America. This follows a criminal alien truck driver killing three Americans in Florida when he executed an illegal u-turn. Harjinder
Singh entered the country illegally and was handed a Commercial Driver’s License from California. He’s being charged with manslaughter after killing three American Citizen
DHS spokesperson tells me ICE enforcement at Truck stops and DOT Weigh Stations are “on the table.” “Secretary Noem and DHS is keeping all enforcement options on the table to keep Americans safe.
This should have never happened.” “Three innocent people were killed in Florida because Gavin Newsom’s California DMV issued an illegal alien a Commercial Driver’s License—this state of governance is asinine.
How many more innocent people have to die before Gavin Newsom stops playing games with the safety of the American public? We pray for the victims and their families.” According to trucking industry insiders, illegal aliens are rampant in the profession.
https://nitter.poast.org/bennyjohnson/status/1957443591124681191#m
I never see open weigh stations on the times I have traveled the highway
when are they open?
I have been saying for a while that California has to be temporarily federalized. It has effectively become a foreign state. It no longer supports, or defends the US Constitution. It no longer is guided by “We The People,” the American people.
California is now a territory of China. All 3 western states are.
I’m being serious.
I’ve gone to college and lived in CA for most of my life. There are a lot of conservatives who are really pissed with how the state is governed. I would welcome a DC like Federalization here.
Apparently not enough to change things.
Jungle primaries and mail in ballots will do that to a state. Oregon and California were pretty centrist “purple” states before those were implemented.
Yesterday I ran an errand late in the day. I thought I had crossed a line and entered a foreign country. There were asians everywhere. The little asian ladies can’t even see over the steering wheels of the cars they are driving. FJB certainly has made us a smelting pot of ethnicities. This is in North Carolina.
Little Asian ladies won’t hold you up, but I’ve heard of new senior citizen legal immigrants who have family money, signing up for Social Security- a program they never contributed to!
Seize it and flip it.
Phil Ferro: I live in CA and agree with you. Los Angeles is like Zombieland.
California is more worried about bringing in fruit from AZ (or used to be) than illegals
It might help if the DHS starts arresting and charging the people who are hiring these incompetent illegals. Employer responsibility is still not being addressed to the extent it needs to be imo.
CA should be sued too for giving illegals commercial licenses and no illegal should be allowed to have legal licenses to drive any vehicle in this country. Why are licenses issued by a policy in CA allowed to be used nationwide? Not every state grants illegals cdl licenses so those states who do give them out should be mandated that those illegals can only drive in the states issuing them at the very least. Shouldn’t the transportation department look into this for new laws on nationwide regulations for commercial driving and hauling of goods?
Isn’t it the left’s goal to have less people driving cars anyway?
Send all illegals out of this country.
USC 8 is the solution.
The truck driving schools need to be investigated too.
They certify people who don’t have the necessary skills, not to mention they can’t speak and read English.
This website is out in front of this problem, which is a real national security threat:

I’ve posted before that many of the shipments that could go duty free thanks to USMCA are not because the company doesn’t fill out the paperwork, and that of course is interesting — you’d think they would.
With obesity rampant among the poor and unwilling to work pulling their own weight isn’t possible!!! Grocery stores are full of isles of candy, chocolates, cookies, sugar loaded sodas, sugar loaded cereals and bakeries full of donuts and pastries!!!

Does the WHOLE USA allow food stamps to be spent on fast food, or just California?
Yesterday , in the late afternoon, for about 1 minute I didn’t feel the PRESENCE of GOD, … the background vibe of “feeling” this loving, peaceful sense. And it reminded me of what I used to feel growing up, the feeling of “alone-ness in a hostile environment, and danger everywhere. My common childhood experience . ALONE, nobody to really TRUST.
So at first , I wondered “what did I do wrong, to disconnect from the Presence of GOD (loving, peaceful background vibe). Most people around me don’t feel that vibe, YET. And for this 1 minute, I realized what people are feeling in their background inner space, ALONE/CUT off/Danger everywhere/I am doing something BAD (and don’t know what I did).
Then after years of meditation, I PRAYED as usual and in SILENCE “breathe in GOD’S LOVE, PEACE and JOY, and then Breathed GOD’S LOVE, Peace and Joy all around me”, … doing what I have been doing for many years. And In less than a couple of minutes, FELT AGAIN the background vibe of “Being Protected , Being LOVED, … and I felt the ALIVE PEACE”.
And then I thought when I was young, I used to screw up something or other , or break some school rule, … and would spend all my thinking about how I can “feel better”, and I didn’t feel better, just guilty for something “I must of done, but don’t know what it was”. Dark TIMES growing up without the “GOD background vibe”.
I’m sorry to everybody, I do sometimes post feeling this very POWERFUL BACKGROUND vibe, and thinking others on this RAG TAG REBEL Conservitive site run by Sundance and others … UNDERSTAND ME.
It is ok if you don’t understand me. Just know there is a wonderful positive vibe that you can OPEN UP TO, that can make you feel “Loved, Peaceful and inwardly Joyous”, but you got to be OPEN to GOING inside, and ASKING for GOD, Inviting GOD IN, and SEEKING GOD. And not stopping until you GET IT. And work your tail off, once you are connected to the GOD VIBE, …. stay connected! And if you make some “mistake”, again PRAY , PRAY, PRAY … to “ASK for GOD’S GRACE to fill you, Seek it, and INVITE GOD into your HEART. Be in it for the LONG HAUL! Peace to my rag-tag group of battered conservative mis-fits… look above at this websites LOGO… we are in the “right place”… to advance our LOVE of GOD, Country, Family, and Humanity.
You are FREE to hate what I write. And if you are in the “FLOW” agree with me. GOD’S GRACE is AWESOME!
Very nice.
God is the only place that you’ll find true love & peace.
Please Lord watch and keep us on our journey.
Amen!

Alleycats, I concur with your response. 🎯
Sometimes we need to stop – be still – and know that GOD is GOD, fully sovereign, ruler of all.
Psalm 46:10 – “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
I’m CHOOSING to stay positive about the Russia-Ukraine negotiations. Huge obstacles to overcome. But God can clear them. The alternative is horrible to contemplate.
I don’t know how God is going to stop President Trump from capitulating to his “boss” here.
Trump IS “the boss” here. But Putin is the (only …) other TRUSTWORTHY player. The two can force the remaining hacks and warmongers. The two can effectuate and impose an end to it. Despite the others not wanting that outcome at all.
Europe and the present Ukranian “government” are going to be forced to accept that they are not the stronger, and that they have been d-e-f-e-a-t-e-d. Success is not an option. Surrender is.
Russia is never going to be broken up into Victoria’s “forty-odd little countries.” Those forty-odd FLAGS will never fly. But, “oh, they all could taste it …”
The final denouement must(!) satisfy both our perspectives AND Russia’s. And, the actual surviving people(!!) of Ukraine. Who have suffered much.
It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.
It was announced yesterday that elements of the Lincoln BG (including the CVN) is headed for AK for a defense exercise with….drumroll….Canada. At the same time, the Ford BG (with a SAG) is headed to the North Sea for freedom of navigation ops and show of force. Some of this is baked into deployment planning. Some of this plays into Ukraine.
Per review I have seen, the immediate nub is boiling down to the redrawn territorial borders North and West of Donbas area and security commitments the US will be willing to make. The latter will be a tough nut to crack for PDJT.
In my own mind, EU concerns about Russian aggression are valid. There’s history behind that. But, Brussels threw in with WEF/globalists/CIA and lost big time.
Not sure how this is going to play out – will PDJT drop the hammer or will he, if the peacemaking efforts falter (likely due to EU/CIA subterfuge) pull chocks and remove US presence entirely. Fluid situation all around.
Make them offers they (all parties) can’t refuse Mr President.
Found in the bin…. 🙁
And his boss is who, exactly?
God is President Trump’s only boss. And the First Lady is the next most influential person in his life. Fixed it for him.
Neither of them are religious, but they pose as such for the optics.
Even as someone as religious as you (assuming) should be able to see that he lacks deep religious orientation.
He supports Christian values in policy and governance to get your votes, but the buck stops there.
Then you don’t know God who is the only boss PDJT ‘capitulates’ to.
I am 100% positive that you are wrong.
Hey Dan, you seem a bit stopped up. Go eat a fig, perhaps you’ll feel better for it.
Considering the fact that President Trump’s “Boss” is the Lord God Almighty, I don’t think we have a problem here…
Excellent video; Erin Molan’s show. Erin has become well known for her uncompromisingly direct and clear-eyed stand for truth and conscience against the lunacy and moral rot through which the west, including her native Australia, is currently committing cultural suicide.
Show includes Trump achievements, corruption of the global humanitarian complex & why the UN should be shut down; how the propaganda war against Israel has managed to manipulate the minds of so many;
JMO.
After the BBB and the worldwide tariff system, it appears that President Trump’s next critical area is the systematic dismantling and defunding of the “enemies within the walls” of our Constitutional Republic.
He won’t try to teak around the edges of the totally corrupt IC’s DOJ and the 3-letter departments.
He will have a permanent Constitutional compliant work-around to replace the totally un-Constitutional IC and its DOJ and the 3-letter departments.
The DOJ and the 3-letter department’s carryover obama / biden, treasonous, traitors will not have a seat at the table of the new restructured, Constitutionally compliant Executive Branch.
They will finally be charged, prosecuted and sentenced for their crimes of weaponizing the federal government against Americans over the past 8 years.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Dear Cactus, from your mouth to God’s ears. I pray in Jesus’s name.
Amen!
The uniparty (SES) has been circling their proverbial wagons since the Tea Party, for me this was punctuated when “Dick” Cheney’s criminal clan endorsed and campaigned for Kamala, you know “W’s” Mr. Gravitas, who was always sold as solid “rock-ribbed” conservative…remember, he’s on “our” team. “ With friends like this…
What do the entrenched swamp rats fear, the entrenched bureaucracy? Why would “Make America Great Again” strike fear into their dark hearts?
Rush (RIP) used to say. “they’ll tell you who they fear.” They fear, MAGA, they fear Americans.
Get your head around that one, how can any American not be for the greatness of their own country?
Answer, they see the American part, as the problem, this disrupts their glo-bull-ist agenda.
To achieve this goal, the evil ones must destroy the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Our Founding documents have been dissembled, from the start, however the fire lit 112 years ago with the FED, but at a gallop from the Warren Court, assassination of JFK, LBJ, Watergate, Ford, Carter; (SES) Senior Executive Service, FISA Court, (DoE) Department of Education, (IG) Inspectors General, (CRA) Community Reinvestment Act set up to 2008, depose the Shah constant war in the ME, vilify oil …et al. Reagan Simpson/Mazzoli Immigration Act of 1986, Bloody Poppy Bush Gulf War I, NWO, Rio Accords, Clinton repeal of Glass-Steagall, “W” Bloody Bush Jr. Electronic Voting, 9-11, Homeland Security, Patriot Act, WAR-WAR-WAR, OE I-III to bog to fail, Barry’s fundamental transformation.
This wicked trail is visible when you stand back and look, our government is a rolling fraud, wholly owned and operated by the (WEF) the public relations wing of The Bank of International Settlements, The Square Mile (the city of London), Bank of Rome and their investment firms Black Rock (Larry Fink interim chairman of the WEF, they cut out the middle man), State Street, Vanguard.
The bottom line, The New World Order.
When you look at the Rogues Gallery of installed frauds, EU leaders in the Oval Office, with a bust of Ben Franklin and Abe Lincoln, Reagan Portrait to their right, Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Space Force banners making clear who the CiC Commander in Chief is.
This fight that President Trump and MAGA has taking on is worldwide in its nature. The NWO/CFR/WEF demons have stirred up mischief and mayhem, death, destruction, anything goes.
Now these gangsters are facing a man of resolve, a man with a clear mission, a man with the shield of God and good who truly wants love & peace, our Great American President Donald J Trump, for once in my lifetime, the demons are on their heels.
Keep the faith MAGA, pray, and be prepared for anything, as this is entrenched evil, “Nothing is off the Table” Keep God and family close, and President Trump in our prayers.
MAGA!
Did ya see?
“WASHINGTON — The Justice Department worker accused of throwing a Subway sandwich at a federal agent was re-arrested by an armed team of at least a half-dozen US Marshals in a dramatic Wednesday night raid, new video shows.
Sean Charles Dunn, 37, was cuffed …….. a second time …… inside his apartment about a mile northwest of the White House — after being slapped with a felony assault charge.”
Looks like the Marshals weren’t impressed with bondi making a big deal about his first arrest and being charged with a felony assault charge against a federal officer. …… but then just releasing him the next morning.
They say he is looking at assault with a deli weapon, with an extra enhancement for not holding the mayo.
Can’t believe I am the fist to come up with this. . . . “assault with a deli weapon.” He was hit with a club.
(sorry)
And have another ham-fisted attempt at subway humor….I’m surprised that turkey wasn’t peppered by meatballs in return…..
Too funny! 🙂
That was one of the oldest tricks of law enforcement.
President Trump has put the highest priority on saving children from the predations of sickos and leftists!
Melania Trump is very aware of the exploitation of children in the USA and world, especially Ukraine and Asia.
She is working with Queen Rania of Jordan, in particular, to stop child trafficking, child torment and murder that flows in secret around the world. https://jordandaily.net/queen-rania-meets-incoming-first-lady-melania-trump-in-florida/
First Lady Melania is also working on behalf of foster children who need homes after they age out of foster care.
Melania has a YUGE heart for children – she’s as fierce and protective of children as a tigress.
President Trump has a true protective, strongly masculine father’s heart. He means business about stopping child and human trafficking and perverse exploitation of children.
He’s also advocate for the rights and protection of the unborn and elderly – from the womb to the tomb!
I noticed lately the exploitation of children in Ukraine has gotten more coverage.
I particularly noticed the Europeans yesterday kept repeating concern for the children, but they wanted to deflect from Ukraine by saying Russia kidnapped children and Ukraine wanted them back.
I don’t believe that. Putin was returning dead bodies of ukraine soldiers…..why would he want children? They just want to make him look like a monster when he is probably better than they are. JMHO
Great pic,,,
She should bring up child marriages to Rania. Child marriages are rife in Islam
Yes, definitely. It would also be good to label gender affirming care as child abuse and start prosecuting anyone involved in this barbaric practice.
Ursula von der Layen has 7 children of her own. Remarkable in this day and age for a woman in such a high political position. It’s no wonder the welfare of children is such a high priority for her.
Reading this makes me wonder why Melania does not support the unborn child ?
How about the hundreds of thousands of British GIRLS r*ped, pimped, and tortured by Pakistani Muslim “grooming” gangs?
We should offer them asylum.
I love our First Lady! Such a breath of fresh air compared to the wife of the vegetable.

Another day another thread hijacking by Winston
I’m absolutely certain that this tick thing can’t be anything new, but just as with bird flu it establishes something on which to blame the next lab leak pandemic or covert biological attack enabled by engineered circumstances like the screw worm fly which in 2022 crossed the Darien Gap, perfectly in sync with the surge there during the southern border invasion, defeating a barrier present there since 2006 in the form of the release of sterilized screw worm flies.

Exotic ticks are hitchhiking their way to the US on travelers, raising public health concerns
https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-08-exotic-hitchhiking-health.html
When was the screw worm sterilized flies barrier established in the Darien Gap?
The screw worm sterile fly barrier in the Darién Gap was established in 2006.
Did the screw worm fly cross the Darien Gap in 2022?
Yes, the New World screwworm fly (Cochliomyia hominivorax) breached the biological barrier at the Darién Gap in 2022, marking a significant resurgence of the parasite in Panama after decades of control. The Darién Gap, a dense jungle region between Panama and Colombia, had been maintained as a containment zone through the release of millions of sterile screwworm flies weekly to prevent the pest’s northward spread. The breach was first detected in August 2022, with cases in Panama, particularly in cattle, rising from dozens per year to around 1,000, despite ongoing sterile fly releases. The exact cause of the breach is not fully clear, but factors such as increased human and animal migration through the Darién Gap, relaxed monitoring during the COVID-19 pandemic, illegal cattle trafficking, climate change creating favorable conditions, and deforestation have been cited as possible contributors. Following the breach, the screwworm spread rapidly through Central America, reaching Costa Rica by July 2023, Nicaragua by March 2024, Honduras by September 2024, and southern Mexico by November 2024.
Was there an increase noted in human and animal traffic through the Darien Gap in 2022?
Yes, there was a significant increase in human traffic through the Darién Gap in 2022. According to the Panamanian government, nearly 250,000 migrants crossed into Panama via the Darién Gap in 2022, nearly doubling the 133,000 crossings recorded in 2021. This marked a dramatic rise compared to the annual average of fewer than 11,000 crossings per year from 2010 to 2020. The majority of migrants in 2022 were from Venezuela (approximately 150,000), with significant numbers from Haiti and Ecuador as well.
Who was primarily responsible for that invasion besides the CCP/PLA/USAID(CIA) installed Senile Manchurian Puppet and his senior White House advisor appointed before he was even sworn in, a person who had been fired from the BHO regime for saying on camera that her favorite political philosopher in Mao?
International Organization for Migration | IOM, UN Migration
https://www.iom.int/funding-and-donors/united-states-america
The United States of America is IOM’s top donor [approximately $2.2 BILLION in 2024] and its contributions form the foundation of the support received by the Organization. This generous funding is primarily provided through the Department of State’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration and the Agency for International Development (USAID). [There is that CIA front group again! – W]
By year, provide grant figures in dollars which the US provided for the International Organization for Migration.
2023: The U.S. provided $1.365 billion in total voluntary contributions to IOM, with $15 million of that being unearmarked contributions. This figure reflects funding primarily through PRM and USAID.
2024: While specific annual figures for 2024 are not isolated in the sources, the U.S. is described as IOM’s top donor, with contributions forming the foundation of IOM’s budget. Posts on X suggest that the U.S., through the State Department, USAID, and FEMA, provided approximately $5.5 billion to IOM over the two years spanning 2023–2024, implying a significant portion in 2024 alone. However, this figure is not broken down annually in the posts and should be treated as inconclusive without further verification.
Exposing the Ultimate Objective of the Push for Mass Migration: Alex Newman (13:38)
Crossroads with JOSHUA PHILIPP
24 May 2024
Excerpt:
The Global Compact on Migration, I think the best way to understand it is it seeks to radically redefine immigration so it it’s no longer a privilege to be able to move to another country with the permission of that government. I think probably the single most fundamental change that this compact seeks to bring about is redefining it from a privilege to a right. You have a right to migrate somewhere better especially if you you live in a poor country, you live in a country where there’s gang violence, really for for any reason and that is ultimately the end objective of this – to facilitate enormous levels of migration primarily into Western countries…
So, this is a very strategic document that aims to embed what they call soft law, these ideas that are they’re not technically enforceable. There’s no UN Court that’s going to say, “Well, you didn’t obey this and so we’re going to sanction you,” but what happens is these get embedded into national legal codes, into judicial decisions and before you know it it becomes hard law and the objective of the hard law is to totally restructure all the immigration codes and legal systems in the world to to facilitate enormous movements of people that might make the last decade uh really look minor by comparison with what’s coming.
Well, it seems that that would actually destroy the very nature of countries. I remember we talked briefly about the destruction of the nation state. Is that just a side effect or is that the agenda. What do you make of it?
So, I believe that is actually a feature not a bug. I believe that is their ultimate objective and and that’s not just based on speculation. I’ve seen the documents that they have put out. I’ve read their information. One of the guys who really gave the end game away was the guy they the United Nations. His name was Peter Sutherland. He used to be one of the big wigs over at Goldman Sachs and he repeatedly said and you included a little bit of this footage in the documentary, he repeatedly said that one of the objectives is actually to undermine national homogeneity. They want to create multicultural societies whereby people have very little in common with each other.
Traditionally, the nation state or the nation itself has been seen mostly as an extension of the family. It’s kind of like an extended family and in a lot of ancient nations you still find this today. If you go visit the Zulu or you visit the Sha in southern Africa, even Sweden until very recent decades, they actually saw the nation as an extension of the family. It was like the big family and they want to move away from that now. All these nations had a lot in common. They typically shared a culture. They certainly shared a language. Often, they shared ethnicity. Hungarians or Fins or Swedes or or Frenchmen or Germans. Whatever. And I think one of the key goals of this mass migration is to undermine that very deliberately and very strategically for the purpose ultimately of undermining the nation state itself.
We’re watching this happen very rapidly in Europe. You look at the big cities of Western Europe and Northern Europe. Many of them now have the native population in the minority. In some cities like Brussels the native population is a very small minority depending on whose numbers you believe, somewhere like 25 to 30% of the population of Brussels is actually Belgian. You look at Frankfurt, Germans are in the minority. You look at London, Brits are in the minority. You look at Malmo and Sweden, Swedes are in the minority. Amsterdam, the Dutch are in theminority and so what will happen ultimately is these people will wake up one day and they’ll say. “Wow, I’m completely surrounded by people who I don’t have anything in common with. We don’t share the same language. We don’t share the same culture, the same religion. We don’t think the same things. We don’t even like each other.”
Why do we have these arbitrary lines on a map called a nation? Why not just be European Citizens which is, of course, step one and then ultimately Global Citizens which is what Peter Sutherland talked about quite a bit. So, that is the ultimate objective. They probably won’t come out of the closet too openly until they think it’s irreversible.
Glad I made a partial transcript of that video on YouTube because it is now marked “private.”

I remember reading an article not too long ago that releasing the sterile bugs stopped a few years ago.
Q: Can the POTUS legally order the method of voting used by states for federal elections?
No, the President of the United States (POTUS) cannot legally order states to use a specific method of voting for federal elections. The U.S. Constitution, primarily through Article I, Section 4, grants states the authority to determine the “times, places, and manner” of holding elections for federal offices, including congressional elections. This power extends to presidential elections as well, per Article II, Section 1, which gives states control over selecting electors for the Electoral College. While Congress has some authority to regulate these elections, the president’s role is limited, and executive orders cannot override state election laws or constitutional provisions.
The Supreme Court has consistently upheld states’ primary authority over election administration. For example, in *Shelby County v. Holder* (2013), the Court emphasized states’ significant discretion in managing elections, subject to federal constitutional constraints like the Voting Rights Act. Federal law, such as the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002, sets some minimum standards (e.g., accessibility, provisional ballots), but these are enacted by Congress, not the president. A presidential attempt to mandate voting methods (e.g., mail-in ballots or in-person voting) would likely be struck down as exceeding executive authority, as seen in cases like *Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer* (1952), which limited presidential power absent congressional authorization.
Any presidential action would also need to navigate the Tenth Amendment, reserving powers not delegated to the federal government to the states. Exceptions might arise in extreme cases (e.g., national emergencies), but even then, the president’s authority would likely be limited to enforcing existing federal laws or addressing specific constitutional violations, not dictating voting methods. States’ rights to choose methods like mail-in voting, early voting, or in-person voting remain constitutionally protected, subject only to federal laws and judicial oversight for issues like voter suppression or discrimination.
Q: Can the POTUS order an out of cycle national census that doesn’t count non-citizens?
The U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 2) mandates a census every 10 years to count the “whole number of persons” in each state for apportioning congressional representation. The Census Bureau, under the Department of Commerce, conducts this decennial census. Federal law (13 U.S.C. § 141) governs the census process, requiring a count of all persons residing in the U.S., regardless of citizenship status, as clarified by Supreme Court rulings like Trump v. New York (2020), which blocked efforts to exclude non-citizens from apportionment counts.
The President has authority to direct federal agencies, including the Census Bureau, but this is constrained by law. Ordering an out-of-cycle census (outside the decennial schedule) would require congressional authorization, as the Census Bureau’s funding and operations are tied to statutory mandates. The President could issue an executive order for a special survey or data collection, but it wouldn’t replace the official decennial census or its apportionment role. Excluding non-citizens from such a count would likely face legal challenges, as the Constitution and federal law emphasize counting all residents. Historical attempts to exclude non-citizens (e.g., Trump’s 2020 memorandum) were struck down for violating statutory and constitutional requirements.
In short, the President could request an out-of-cycle survey but lacks unilateral authority to mandate a full census or exclude non-citizens from the official count. Congressional approval and legal compliance would be necessary, and any exclusionary measure would likely face significant legal scrutiny.
Absolutely not. That is playing with fire. I don’t expect his most ardent supporters to care, though.
My question is – if he legit won in 2024, and Republican policies are so popular with the American people, why does he feel the need to reform the system, especially when he’s out for good in three years?
The irony is – a lot of Republican voters prefer mail-in ballot.
Something is more sinister at play here, no doubt.
This is absurd.
Indeed it is
all the people who winter in southern states love the mail in vote system
The non-people, living in fake addresses
like mail in ballotsss too…
‘They’, or its, also like that mail in either:
– takes years to verify with volunteers, post election, doing door to door surveys
and / or
– is unverifiable when the ballot is permanently separated from its mail in envelope
– and an election is called or miss called prior to verifying via a thorough audit
– and court$ seem disinterested in healthy discovery before ruling or miss ruling on miss under ‘standing’
– and voters seem know if there was an election or a miss placement.
[ and yes, software can be designed – or results altered via modem – to miss count – and their private ‘coding’ ( programming)
is not made public even though it is a public election.]
There are people that know the truths.
( some had, or are having, jail time or paying some other price )
Imho
Absentee ballots, done prior to leaving. Or, as so many Florida snowbirds do…go home for a few days to vote. If you can return for holidays or special occasions, why can’t you give the same importance to voting. In many states, voting is one way certain benefits, such as Homestead Exemptions, are determined to be valid.
All the democrats and the cheaters love the mail in vote system so they can win elections.
You have to be kidding. You’re so obvious you might as well out yourself and be done with it. This a laughable post to even think to put on here. Why should election reforms be front and center? Nice try.
So no need to fix things eh?
Fraud affects more than the Presidential election. Every seat in the country is subject to fraud.
Q: Is our debt-based monetary system effectively a Ponzi Scheme?
The debt-based monetary system isn’t a Ponzi scheme in the strict sense, but it shares some uncomfortable similarities that make the comparison worth exploring.
A Ponzi scheme relies on new investors to pay returns to earlier investors, with no sustainable underlying wealth generation. Our monetary system, rooted in fractional reserve banking and fiat currency, depends on continuous debt creation to function, which can feel like a similar treadmill. Let’s break it down.
In a debt-based system, money is created primarily through loans issued by banks. When a bank lends money, it doesn’t pull it from a vault; it creates it by crediting the borrower’s account, effectively expanding the money supply. The catch is that the loan must be repaid with interest, which requires more money to be created in the future to cover both the principal and the interest. This creates a feedback loop where new debt is needed to service old debt, much like how a Ponzi scheme needs new investors to pay off earlier ones. The U.S. money supply (M2) has grown from about $1.2 trillion in 1980 to over $21 trillion in 2025, largely driven by this mechanism. Meanwhile, total U.S. debt (public and private) is around $103 trillion, or roughly 120% of GDP, per recent estimates.
The key difference is that a Ponzi scheme is inherently fraudulent and collapses when new investors dry up. The monetary system, while strained, is backed by productive economies, government authority, and trust in institutions like central banks. [in other words it’s only partly fraudulent as shown by its inherent and disproportionate upward wealth transfer effect; the victims are kept complacent by being allowed a small portion of the take – W] It’s not designed to collapse [and kill the golden goose – W] but to perpetuate through growth—economic output, population increases, or inflation. However, if growth stalls or trust erodes [or more debt is added too quickly – W], the system can falter, as seen in hyperinflation cases like Weimar Germany or modern Venezuela, where debt spirals overwhelmed productive capacity.
Total debt vs GDP [the comment is sarcasm] – blue line is debt, red line is GDP
Our Debt Based Monetary System is a Ponzi Scheme (4:07)
Social Security is a Ponzi scheme as structured. It relies on an ever-increasing base of “investors” to pay off the previous generation of investors.

Well I don’t think that is something that should be listed on any goal tracker. It would be akin to show me the man and I’ll show you the crime. To make a statement about making X number of arrests for X crimes is what the previous administration did.
So “accountability for illegal behavior” wouldn’t be something to list? I may have missed it, so please tell me if you find that because I spent very little time looking.

Q: What is technofeudalism?
Technofeudalism is a term used to describe a modern socio-economic system where advanced technology and digital platforms create power structures reminiscent of feudalism. In this system, a small number of tech giants or “digital lords” control vast digital ecosystems, wielding significant economic, social, and political influence. These entities extract value (data, attention, or labor) from users, who resemble “digital serfs” bound to these platforms, often with limited autonomy or ownership over their contributions. Unlike traditional capitalism, where markets and competition dominate, technofeudalism emphasizes monopolistic control, surveillance, and the enclosure of digital commons, leading to wealth and power concentration.
Key characteristics include:
– Monopolistic Platforms: A few tech companies dominate markets, controlling access to digital infrastructure (e.g., cloud services, app stores, social networks).
– Data Extraction: User data is harvested as a primary resource, akin to land in feudal times, often without fair compensation.
– Asymmetric Power: Users and smaller businesses depend on platform owners, who set terms and extract “rents” (e.g., fees, data, or attention).
– Surveillance and Control: Constant monitoring of user behavior to maximize engagement and profit, reducing user agency.
– Network Effects: Platforms grow stronger as more users join, creating barriers to competition and entrenching power.

Carlson: I’m coming to this slowly but a lot of the ugliest things that the system does inspiring race hatred for example I never have understood why you’d want to do that but they’re doing it and have been for 60 years. Like, is that a long term, is that, can you continue doing that?
MacIntyre: Not forever, but it’s a classic power strategy so we need to understand that the one of the things that power always wants to do is centralize and expand its reach. I think that’s pretty obvious to a lot of people. But this guy Bertrand de Juvenile came up with these this metaphysics of power and his understanding was that the you’re what we would think of as the middle class, right? The Kulaks. They’re entrenched in society because they own a piece of the tradition. They own a piece of the land. They have actual communities. They have resilience. They have the ability to push back against the government. And so if you have this middle class, they’re in the way of your power as a leader. And so what do you do? Well, you take your high, your high, your ruling class, and you pair them with a low class from outside of society. And that high and low versus the middle is the way that you break apart society because you promise the new voters or the new participants that you will give them whatever the Kulaks have. It’s all their fault, the middle class, they’re the ones who are keeping you back. They’re the racists. They’re, you know, they’re the sexists. And if you just defeat them, we’ll just give you all their stuff. And this is the wedge that is continuously used. The large amount of our government right now is just a wealth transfer between heritage Americans and the new political class that’s being moved in to rule society. That’s just the dynamic we’re seeing. And this happened in Rome. This has happened many, many times over. You can see many historical examples.
Auron MacIntyre’s 2022 book:
If no one goes to jail, the coup was a success

July 24, 2025

Americans are tired of watching the powerful get away with everything. In 2008, bankers crashed the economy and got bailed out. In 2020, Anthony Fauci and the biomedical regime imposed tyranny under the guise of public health. In 2020 and 2024, Joe Biden was propped up by a Democratic cabal that subverted the Constitution and jailed dissidents. The southern border was thrown open to reshape the electorate and lock in leftist power.
Kamala Harris nearly extended that reign — had she not turned out to be the dumbest, most tone-deaf, and most unlikable candidate ever smuggled onto a national ticket.
Yet through all of it, no one in power has paid a serious price for their crimes.
Major revelations come and go. But with no accountability, they become little more than distractions. There may have been a time when shame alone could bring a public reckoning — but our current ruling class is incapable of shame. They don’t resign in disgrace. They don’t retreat. They wait for the news cycle to move on.
The scandals pile up like grains of sand in a desert, each one indistinguishable from the next.
In this environment, exposing corruption becomes just another way to tranquilize the public. People think, “At least the truth is out there — maybe voters will care.” But what if the scandal is about rigging the vote in the first place? If Democrats can open the border, fabricate intelligence, and collude with media to tip elections, then what good is the ballot box?
Exposure, without punishment, doesn’t deter. It emboldens.
The left doesn’t hesitate to jail its enemies. January 6 protesters were locked up for years — including some who never entered the Capitol. Trump officials like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro were arrested and imprisoned. Pro-life activists got comically inflated sentences for silent protests. The FBI threatened parents who challenged school boards. Douglass Mackey was convicted for making memes. Trump himself faced fabricated charges that could’ve put him behind bars for life — all to stop his return.
So why are Republicans so cowardly? [besides being complicit, those who live within Deep State glass houses don’t throw stones – W]
[snip]
181 days since Trump was sworn in:
No indictments for the multiple coup attempts, the Maoist color revolution attempts, the creation of the COVID virus and the damaging lies and official actions and edicts surrounding the COVID pandemic, the USAID(CIA)/”NGO” funded invasion on our southern border and resulting DEATHS of some citizens due to that, the catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan, etc., etc., etc.
Unfortunately, it’s far too late to get some accountability for the CIA blowback which resulted in 9/11, allowed by the greatest intelligence “failure” since Pearl Harbor, or the lies which led to the catastrophic invasion of Iraq which allowed Iran much greater control of what once was a major enemy.
I have considered the US providing security guarantees for Ukraine.
I have come to the conclusion that the US is the only entity that can provide this security.
A DMZ along the agreed border between Ukraine and Russia with US soldiers manning the zone with guns pointed at Europe will provide appropriate protection for Ukraine.
I know you are saying this tongue-n- cheek but absolutely no US boots on the ground or aircraft flying above. Also, no tax payer monies to rebuild and no security guarantees to globalist corporations that take advantage of Ukraine and do the rebuilding of the corruption machine. Ukraine is europe’s buffer between them and Russia, not ours and I don’t care one little bit about europe, they have proven themselves to be the worst kind of friends to have.
russia needs only one thing. water access
I notice which direction the guns are pointing.
and next FJB… will change toward Russians..VVP… do not want a foreign troops in 404 country……
Im curious to know with all the current tensions PDJTrump has with India, if there is any reconsideration or reformulation of the Indian H1B (?) Imports. Indian culture is actually not very compatible with American culture.
My experiences with Indians is that in business there is no honor or honesty, there is no standing up for what is right, there is no apology. Essentially there is no Judeo Christian Ethic, only cut-throat self-ism. The Indian culture isn’t “Good”.
Additionally, there are Americans to do the work. My niece finished her computer science degree 3 years ago and doesntnhave a programming job yet, and not fornlack of effort. Granting of Work visas must be met with much more scrutiny and oversight.
So, I find myself very curious about the details of the administration’s tension with India and would love to see the end the importation of Indian replacement workers and culture.
Plus, I can’t understand a word they are saying when they are supposedly speaking English
“Have you rebooted your computer sir?”
Good one! 😂 😂
VDare has had numerous articles over the years about the newest imported class to be above Americans from Hindustan. VDare suffered through lawfare as well. The archived articles might still be available.
Health care entities owned by the Indian ‘businessmen’…are bringing in foreign nurses, as well. I don’t know the back door deals but I do notice that there are far fewer Philippine nurses now, I do know with covid, many I worked with, went back home. This is always the ploy to get people in favor of the foreigners: we have a nursing shortage in America. SARC. The problem is that American nurses are not being hired with the same energy that the foreign nurses are.
Now why is that? Aside from money, that is…and my hypothesis is that the nurses from some demographics, are more, but partially, compliant and subservient. American nurses, not so much and will fight tooth and nail in and for patient advocacy issues.
All of these recent close-ups of Trump’s face.
His ear! It is a modern miracle! The man takes a bullet to the ear and no scars, nothing appearing to be damaged. It looks like a regular ear.
He must be super-human! /ssssss
Stirring the pot Dan?
Just pointing out my observation.
That ear looks perfecto!
Hubby had almost the exact part of his ear removed via MOHS for a cancer procedure…looking at his ear now you never know it.
See my post within this thread. Plastic surgery and reconstructive surgery is a true and modern marvel. Ask any healed burn patient who had some reconstruction….
The marvels of modern medicine. There are many new products available and surgical techniques developed, that generate phenomenal wound healing, especially for the ear structures, which are traditionally hard to heal.
That picture with all the Euro weenies sitting in front of the Presidents desk lined up like school children is remarkable.
Truly amazing
One step at a time…
Yes! Shut woke Randi down! Union dollars hijacked!
Loomer is a treasure.
Ukraine, a center of darkness…
Yes, I agree that Russia should not be putting Ukrainian children up for adoption. However, who is going to police the Ukrainian children from being exploited and trafficked? It is a no win either way.
Our “good friends”…
There are those that say she was the one directing it…
Trump states no U.S. troops will be deployed on the ground in Ukraine, noting that potential U.S. security guarantees could be provided “from the air.”
Trump: “I did not call Putin in front of the European leaders. I thought that would be disrespectful to Putin.
President Trump says France, Germany and the UK want boots on the ground as part of security guarantee for Ukraine.
Switzerland will offer “immunity” to Putin if he “comes for a peace conference,” AFP reports
https://nitter.poast.org/Osint613
I keep going back to some of SD’s earlier articles on this. US boots on the ground was a trap to escalate, and would guarantee continuation of the war.
Switzerland will offer “immunity” to Putin if he “comes for a peace conference,”
But what about all the European countries Pres. Putin would be flying over?

this may be a dumb question. does gerrymandering guarantee that a particular party will win a Congressional seat?
doesn’t it just change the geographic borders of the district to pinpoint the demographic voter population? Historically, if a district is mostly black, they would consider that a Democratic seat.
I ask because I’m watching an interview with Gov Greg Abbott, and even he is calling it ‘adding Republican seats’. My point is that, even if they draw a district to be mostly black voters, those people may vote Republican these days! Or, maybe I just don’t understand this.
Blacks are not voting Republican. We need to stop drinking that hopium. Harris still won a crushing majority. Whites are heading to majority minority status in this country. Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try and win some people over, but the cultural and ethnic divide it too big.
Gerrymandering consolidates and concentrates voters into majority pools. While it doesn’t guarantee a seat, it almost does barring a very bad candidate or a throw-the-bums-out election. It can also be used to dilute a stronghold by throwing more of this or that demographic into the mix.
Gerrymandering also protects incumbency. And we should require term limits for this reason.
A gerrymander takes a dozen districts with 55 to 45 percent Republican majorities, and, for example, creates one district with 95 to 5 percent Republican majority and 11 districts with 55 to 45 percent Democratic majorities. On a map, the districts look like a Rorschach test. Non-gerrymandered districts lines follow natural, geographical boundaries.
Yes, if it didn’t work, they wouldn’t do it.
They can carve out districts based on voting rolls and precinct results. For example, a district that is voting 75% Democrat can have a few precincts moved to a neighboring district that is voting 52% Republican. Creates two precincts that are now 67% Democrat and 55% Democrat.
As I recall, that’s how the Uniparty got rid of Allen West. Moved a few Democrat precincts into his district to flip the district.
I think South Carolina 6 is also gerrymandered (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Carolina%27s_congressional_districts#/media/File:South_Carolina_Congressional_Districts,_118th_Congress.svg).
It includes the Orangeburg-Columbia urban corridor which pretty much guarantees a liberal, black representative in Congress (Rep. Jim Clyburn in this case). Otherwise, the representative would be more like Tim Scott.
I don’t think there are any black majority districts that vote Republican AT THIS TIME.
However, 4 out of the 5 new Republican leaning districts being created in Texas are Hispanic majority.
