The Still Hour Thread for 2/20/26
From the thread posted by Stillwater:
“The following is a daily devotional from the book, My Utmost For His Highest, by Oswald Chambers.
(Links to scripture references have been underlined.)
February 20
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CARRIED AWAY FOR HIM?
“She hath wrought a good work on Me.”
Mark 14:6
If human love does not carry a man beyond himself, it is not love. If love is always discreet, always wise, always sensible and calculating, never carried beyond itself, it is not love at all. It may be affection, it may be warmth of feeling, but it has not the true nature of love in it.
Have I ever been carried away to do something for God not because it was my duty, nor because it was useful, nor because there was anything in it at all beyond the fact that I love Him? Have I ever realized that I can bring to God things which are of value to Him, or am I mooning round the magnitude of His Redemption whilst there are any number of things I might be doing? Not Divine, colossal things which could be recorded as marvellous, but ordinary, simple human things which will give evidence to God that I am abandoned to Him? Have I ever produced in the heart of the Lord Jesus what Mary of Bethany produced?
There are times when it seems as if God watches to see if we will give Him the abandoned tokens of how genuinely we do love Him. Abandon to God is of more value than personal holiness. Personal holiness focuses the eye on our own whiteness; we are greatly concerned about the way we walk and talk and look, fearful lest we offend Him. Perfect love casts out all that when once we are abandoned to God. We have to get rid of this notion – “Am I of any use?” and make up our minds that we are not, and we may be near the truth. It is never a question of being of use, but of being of value to God Himself. When we are abandoned to God, He works through us all the time.”
How beautiful! Ty so much for the share. Oswald Chambers’ My Utmost for His Highest is an extraordinary book of devotions.
Praying.
Thank you ed.
Thank you Sherry !!
AMEN
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.
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.
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.
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
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 32 of the 2nd year 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.
Today is opinion day at SCOTUS, starting at 10 am EST. Live-blogging at Scotusblog (not affiliated with the Court). https://www.scotusblog.com/
There is no advance announcement of what opinions will be released. The tariff case (Learning Resources) is a strong possibility.
Also ripe for decision is Slaughter (whether the president can fire a board member of an “independent agency.”). The Court could overturn a New Deal precedent (Humphrey’s Executor) if it ruled in Trump’s favor. Lisa Cook’s case was just argued, but Slaughter would likely decide hers, too. (She’s the Fed Board member who lied on her mortgage application and refused to leave when Trump fired her.)
The other case that could come up is Calais, out of Louisiana, which challenged the interpretation of the 1965 Voting Right Act to require minority-majority districts. The argument was the drafting a congressional district that had a majority of voters who were a minority in the state was a violation of the Equal Protection Clause by discriminating in favor of one race.
JOKE!
MI5 wanted to use GERBILS to catch spies by smelling suspects’ sweat as they were being interrogated
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15573891/MI5-GERBILS-catch-spies-smell-sweat-interrogation.html
Didn’t Ozero and Mike keep several gerbils as pets….
🤣 Add in Richard Gere and you’ve got Pet Shop Boys. 😉
LOL !!
…hmmm …did they keep- rats-as the pets in the WH too?????
That was Congress.
You bring the rubber sheets and Ill bring the gerbils…..
Cousin Eddie
Gavin Newsom going on a “book tour” as his poll numbers plummet. I post these on occasion because he and his cohorts believe in earnest he’s going to be president.
Book tours are money laundering tours, no?
Pretty expensive toilet paper.
They should print those books on rough paper like the old sears catalog so they would be of some value and we could feel better twice with one trip to the bathroom.
Montgomery Ward started the use of glossy paper specifically because of the frequency in which they were found in outhouses.
Funny but true.
Books soon to be found at Dollar General and Ollie’s for $1.00: you can still find one of Shrillary’s ghost-written tomes at such places, and one of MAOchelle MAObama’s screeds as well.
Coming soon to a recycling operation near you! Use them for mulch to grow new trees!
And nothing more.
They are delusional.
They cheat.
Wait, how can he write a book if he dyslexic?
Or does it only affect his knowledge of history?
Don’t forget that he is ‘economically and truth dyslexic’ as well.
USA plays in the Olympic men’s hockey semi-finals today against Slovakia. Finland faces Canada in the other semi-final.
The USA women’s hockey team beat the Canadians to win the gold today.
USA !!
I’m not watching the games, but I saw this online and I thought it was great 🇺🇸
I watched the game and the medal ceremony and saw everyone singing the Anthem. (I sang along with them !!) Nice to see American athlete both happy to represent the country, WIN, and show that they are PROUD to win for their country and for themselves !!
Too many woke athletes at the Olympics, like democRATS, who show NO national pride while wearing the FLAG and supposedly representing our great nation…
I am also rooting for the men’s hockey team to win later today, and for them to go on to beat Canada like the women’s team did to win the GOLD !!
And let’s not forget figure skater Alysa Liu winning the first gold medal in almost 30 years for the United States. Congratulations on a job VERY well done Ms. Liu !!
Happy young woman. Read her bio sometime. It’s quite interesting. Her father is a Chinese dissident who came to the USA to escape. I’m quite sure they are left of center and they are in CA. She handled herself well though and didn’t say anything political or against America. Just the opposite of Eileen Gu who the Chinese bought out to get her to represent China and not America even though she was born and raised here. CA girl too.
Alysa’s language usage wasn’t the best though.
She made it look so easy but it took training and practice starting at 5am, and evenings after school, 6 days a week for at least 10 years. Hats off to her parents for all their support, too!
As for her language I chalked it up to her joyful emotions getting the better of her.
Unlike the Chinese-American skier, Gu, an appropriate last name, born in San Francisco, who decided to represent Communism, Forced Abortions, Mass Murders of Millions, and Slavery/Peonage in China, and is now whining about the “backlash” against her.
We will be generous and assume that being born in San Francisco, Commifornia, distorted or even eliminated her ability in ratiocination.
I have never seen an ice skater so relaxed: superlative performance while appearing effortless. Chapeau!!!
Liu’s long program to Donna Summer’s rendition of MacArthur Park, was the best woman’s figure skating performance I have ever seen. Bravo!
Stunning performance and thank you for your post. I watched women ice hockey…bill
Thank you Bill. Canada 🇨🇦 won earlier today and Team USA 🇺🇸 absolutely crushed Slovakia, setting the stage for USA v Canada for the gold medal.
Go USA !!!
You got that right, tragically.
Ouch
Question to ponder:
‘Do stupid people know they’re stupid?’
Um, ‘Stupid is as stupid does’…….
It even has a fancy name …
The Dunning-Kruger effect, in psychology, a cognitive bias whereby people with limited knowledge or competence in a given intellectual or social domain greatly overestimate their own knowledge or competence in that domain relative to objective criteria or to the performance of their peers or of people in general.
According to the researchers for whom it is named, psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger, the effect is explained by the fact that the metacognitive ability to recognize deficiencies in one’s own knowledge or competence requires that one possess at least a minimum level of the same kind of knowledge or competence, which those who exhibit the effect have not attained.
Because they are unaware of their deficiencies, such people generally assume that they are not deficient, in keeping with the tendency of most people to “choose what they think is the most reasonable and optimal option.”
case in point… if I may
{ https://nypost.com/2026/02/19/us-news/don-lemon-pulls-race-card-to-explain-minnesota-church-invasion/ }
“… The often-fired CNN anchor all but called the parishioners at Cities Church in St. Paul stupid because they mistook him for being a protester in January — even though he claimed he was clearly acting as a journalist.
“It’s weird because they kept saying it even when I told them that I’m not,” Lemon told his former colleague…”
Not one of the smart stupid people either, obviously.
In us stupid people language, some people are so stupid they think they are the smart.
Or, what was once known as hubris.
Full of themselves. Or something else. Grandma’s rules.
They don’t know about the “fancy name”, they just call themselves “Democrats”…
I would guess 80% of young people under 25 or so are afflicted with this disorder. Life has a way of corrected it, though.
Only the smart stupid people do.
Apparently AOC is NOT among the “smart” stoopid people…
The intellect enables the discernment of truth-Rush used the term “Truth Detector.”
Cambridge defines intelligence as the ability to understand and learn well, and to form judgments and opinions based on reason.
When Clinton said “It depends on what the meaning of the word “is” is.” It really made me wonder about the meaning of the word smart. (Words have meaning!)
He lacks the ability to form good judgements because he lacks the discernment for truth- he convinces himself the lie is the truth. Same with Hillary and AOC, though AOC is to a greater degree just ignorant.
Many people are educated “beyond their intelligence.” An uneducated person can be intelligent, and an educated person can be unintelligent.
What I see is what Paul wrote about in Romans 1; that “they exchanged the truth for a lie” and “their minds became darkened.” Smart people who lack intelligence. Liars.
No. Neither do dumb people realize they are dumb.
However, us mentality challenged folks are at times self aware!
😁🙃🥸
AOC is your answer.
There are a lot of highly educated people that are stupid.
That feller got a lotta book learnin but nary a speck of horse sense.
Spoken by my Grandfather re: many city folks.
Or as I have often said, “book smart and common sense dumb”
Many who labor in the field have a PhD.-post hole digger, which is more useful and productive than many species of book worms.
“Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others.The same applies when you are stupid.”― Ricky Gervais
How does Ricky know what dead people know or don’t know, unless he’s been dead or knows what someone who was dead related to him?
He must not be a Christian.
From personal experience, he is correct. He may be an athiest or agnostic or otherwise other than Christian; nevertheless he is correct.
Being freed from the mortal coils is:
the beyond-incandescent feeling of Sweet Relief, Joy & indescribable Bliss,;
the knowing is of being Free & Boundless; a Pure, Positive element one with all that is…
not ‘dead’; absolutely the opposite of ‘dead’.
IMO, fear of ‘death’ is unwarranted (& absurd); today is a good day to die.
Incidentally, in a subsequent jury duty experience, I realized that, in our Justice system, the death penalty is not a punishment for some – it IS a gift;
for those people “life” is the harshest punishment available to impose, by far.
To effect the most harsh or Benevolent sentence possible – depending on one’s personal intention… requires precise discernment.
Admittedly tricky to discern who, exactly, is who.
Some people Love Earthly Human life; others just endure it (via far too much pain).
“It is only painful for others.” If there is no Hell. So much for groaning, gnashing of teeth and all that bluster. So much for justice.
Apparently God is merciful and turns us back to dust only. Dust knows nothing.
Christ’s suffering is then pointless. Our sufferings too. Life then pointless.
Judas despaired and hung himself. By his actions he said God could not save him. Too proud to beg for mercy. Assuming all enter into bliss is presumption of His Mercy -that ignores His Justice.
A life sentence could serve as a penance and an opportunity to repent. A death sentence is an opportunity to concentrate the mind- to contemplate one’s mortality. Like Lent, both chance to seek forgiveness and grow closer to God.
No thorn. No rose.
No rose. No thorns.
Happy Lent.
The caveat was ‘my personal experience’.
Happy holy-days for you too.
PS… Maybe not “pointless” so much as misunderstood…
for your consideration, I hope you’ll give it some thought:
{ https://ekolovesyou.com/p/the-ancient-hunger }
I read your attachment though I’m not sure that that is quite right.
The Good thief confessed before he died. Doing evil things- making others suffer only pleases Satan. Epstein’s practices appear to be Satanic.
Personal sufferings could include all kinds of things- disappointments, betrayal, pains, hunger, thirst. Unless you have been burned by a hot stove it is impossible to understand the warning to be careful or you will get burned by a hot stove.
To posses sympathy it must be relatable. Thus the thorn/ rose paradox. When we sin we offend God. In order to understand that pain we have caused him, he allows for suffering. In that sense we unite ours with Christ’s.
Like a grain of wheat that must die,
we too must die. We are born to die. Whatever we must endure throughout life, we do so with the hope of attaining life everlasting- not
nothingness and
knowing nothing.
My original reply about Gervais was simply to refute the idea that death is lighs-out. Hopefully it’s the opposite.
Ecclesiastes 9:5
“For the living know they will die, but the dead know nothing…their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished.”
He’s a comedian. He was TRYING to make a JOKE
Yes. And many are unduly proud of the fact.
NO, they think they are dimocrats…
The answer to this is well documented. 65% of people think they have above average intelligence
Which is actually impossible.

Sanctions and Political Games 🌍 The Battle of Zaporizhzhia Gains Momentum ⚔️ Military Summary 2026.2.19
🕊️ 🙏 for Peace 🙏🕊️
A Russian soldier with like 3 cohorts tricked a good sized group of Ukrainian soldiers including officers into surrendering to them ending a firefight. There is a video interview of him on Simplicus’ Thr post, but that clip should be out there somewhere, maybe at rt.com. Great PR for Russia.
Russian assault troops from the 38th Guards Brigade (35th Army, “East” group) described how they secured an enemy strongpoint without unnecessary bloodshed.
This is why it is taking Russia so long to do their SMO.
They are doing it as politely as possible.
Putin is trying to protect the Ukrainian people who consider themselves to be Russians…
Most are Russian speaking descendants of Russia. Understand Kiev was once the Capitol of Russia which is over 879 years old. Ukraine was once part of Russia, especially along the eastern border where the majority of the inhabitants speak Russian and are members of the Russian Orthodox Church. The purported reason Putin gave for his invasion of Eastern Ukraine was to liberate the Russian speaking people living there who had been systematically prejudiced by Ukraine, and prevented from practicing their religion, since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1992, and murdered by Azov Brigade ultra-rightwing troops beginning in 2014!
My Ukrainian great grandparents were RUSSIAN Orthodox.
Thanks for sharing.👍👏
Great story!
I like at the end how they say….I want to say hello to my Mom!
I also caught that one fighting with the Ukrainians was Columbian
or Cuban mercenary -didn’t speak the language. And that one was
about 60 years old. 😳
Yes, they have shown the world that they are not barbarians –
👺 just killing for the sake of killing. They have not lost their humanity.
It is like a civil war. Brother against brother-Christian against Christian.✝️

Both Christians & false-christians (vatican) will be eliminated – similar evil perversions & abhorrent inclinations notwithstanding.
I was meaning to intimate that there’s another boss above all that which hasn’t changed in hundreds (thousands?) of years (albeit recently augmented by the Tech Bros). It’s possibly at the Rothschilds, Satanists, Freemasons, Fabians, 13 European dynasties etc., or above that.
It’s using imported Islam among other traits and tactics e.g. suicidal empathy, anarcho-tyranny, DEI, “gender dysphoria”, narrative engineering, CBDC etc. etc. for the great replacement to drive western civilization back to feudalism in order to meet it’s needs for power, control and wealth.

Firstly, they already tried the vindictiveness routine, which spectacularly backfired when the richest man in the world didn’t like being threatened, bought Twitter and helped get Trump elected. So stupid is as stupid does.
Secondly, an announcement like this is political chum, thrown to the base, not aimed at the wider majority and therefore outlines a strategy focused on voter retention, not expansion.
Odd the Democrat whined about Trump seeking retribution all last election cycle and so far all during his second term so far, yet he has not done that, but now promise retribution if they win. The hypocrisy is rich.
Jake, in all due respect, please pull your head out of your arse.
The past year+ has been nothing but retribution.
There is a difference between retribution and justice.
Show me the bodies, max.

I pray for debilitation.
Pretty sure it doesn’t matter anymore for the mid-terms because it’s too late. Congressional primaries begin in a couple weeks and it is highly likely courts would rule that the same election laws must apply throughout an election cycle (primary/runoff/general) and cannot be changed between the primary and general. Bottom line….Thune/McConnell’s stall worked.
“is highly likely courts would rule that the same election laws must apply throughout an election cycle (primary/runoff/general) and cannot be changed between the primary and general.”

Occam’s razor..
the principle of parsimony, tells us that the simplest, most elegant explanation is usually the one closest to the truth.
Witness the very reason that ChiCom Mitch appointed himself chairman of the rules committee before “stepping down from leadership” & why his doppelgänger, Thune let him.
Kentucky -> “The Gift That Keeps On Giving!” /s
The Grift that keeps on Grifting!
Mitch McConnell has been enemy number one of the people seems like forever. He may have stepped aside for Thune but the knife he holds is still aimed.
And ChiCom Mitch’s legacy will be that of a traitor…you can NOT hate these CONgress critters enough.
Traitor, exacting what Glitch The Turdle is.
It occurred to me that ChiCom Mitch blocking a vote on the Save Act is what caused the last minute pile on of support by Republican’ts.
They can all go home, go on the airwaves & tell everyone that they supported it (with evidence) knowing full well that it would never get a floor vote.
This old POS doesn’t even know where he is. Totally disgusting these mentally incapacitated dinosaurs still control things.
Reminds me of McCain and his Obamacare vote. If Thune had any you know what, he would remove McConnell from that position. At least override him.
I support Mike Lee for Leader.
He needs to go NOW. Wait, not now, rather yesterday. How can Kentucky get rid of him? AFAF
The quote from, ‘our Own Worst Enemy’ is a succinct summary of the modern Liberal:
Cultural insecurity: adopting any culture but your own, which you disparage at any opportunity. Check
Inflated expectations: Beholden to DEI, and equity, no accountability, no responsibilities, supported, by others, for life. Check
Tribal partisan alliances: Democratic Socialism, LQBTQ+, Antifa, destruction of the rule of law. Check
Obsessions about ethnicity and identity: Couldn’t have summarised a modern liberal better. Check
Blunted ambition: Paying 100’s of thousands to become a barista, victim of equity in the school curriculum. Check
A childlike understanding of the limits of government: A childlike understanding of the limits of everything. Check
They have cultural insecurity but hate “cultural appropriation”?
Notice no mention of “Liberty”! It’s always about “Democracy” with these types! “Liberty” should be at the forefront!
They DO put their own Liberty at the forefront… that goes without saying;
but just their own.
‘Liberty for ME, not for thee.’
So they DO believe in – and *demand*- Liberty – but only in the personal-possessive; I-ME-MINE
They need that Liberty to project their own Seven-Deadly-Sins-addiction onto > the rest of US.
Liberty = Less Government!
They are for total Government control! Communist to the Core!
“Liberty = Less Government!” is our accepted – the founders’ right & proper – meaning of the phrase.
The minions are not that lucid – Word meanings are changed by the usurpers – and twisted, inverted, distorted, made unrecognizable to their minions; for the purpose of deception.
The commie-minions absolutely believe THEY will be free & ‘at Liberty’ to enjoy the spoils & High-Life of “socialist” (communist) victory/ rule… so they demand the Liberty/freedom/entitlement = ‘tolerance; inclusivity…
to impose “socialist rule” on the rest of us/US.
They fancy themselves exempt & immune from the ultimate reality & Truth they have never been made aware of.
They are duped, mind manipulated – sold a totalitarians’ fantasy that their current, personal Liberty… Free Speech Right-to-speak-&-act (which they are currently enjoying using to “bring down this OrangeManBadFascist government”)
will continue for them uninterrupted;
they have no concept of the actual outcome they demand *to be free/ at Liberty to bring about*.
Total lack of awareness that the puppet-master-usurpers (totalitarians) they fight FOR invariably eliminate their gullible minions immediately upon assuming power because the minions are so completely susceptible to manipulation-for-purpose.
That is their reality-blindness.
They are unable to connect the dots because they have been successfully brainwashed in WHAT to think…
never taught HOW to think.
Remember – the satanic inversion of Truth & everything Good is the hallmark of both commies/totalitarians and their ‘fact-checkers’.
Put on your hindsight glasses …
Remember who changed the definitions of “pandemic’ (WHO) and “vaccine” (CDC under Rochelle Walensky) *when WE noticed & exposed their lie in 2021*… changed it to further facilitate & cover up the mass atrocity of “covid 19” on Humanity… because:
“just semantics” dont-cha-know:
“… While it is true that both the CDC and Merriam-Webster did change their definitions of the words ‘vaccination’ and ‘vaccine’, respectively, experts say that this is a problem of semantics rather than science.
…
“It’s an inconsequential red herring,” John P. Moore, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the Weill Cornell Medical College, told Newsweek. “It’s anti-vaxxers choosing to make an issue of something that isn’t real.”…
In other words, these linguistic tweaks were designed to be informative, not sinister.
…”
{ https://www.newsweek.com/science-fact-check-definition-vaccine-cdc-1964107 }
“Informative” = manipulating perception into our chosen form.
The fact-checks are most useful now & always for putting Sunlight on the glaring propaganda-lies having been sold wholesale previously by the predatory usurpers.
Listen to what they say according to THEIR MEANINGS… rather than sane people’s/actual word & phrase meanings, aka reality & Truth .
Thank you for the follow up! I am not in total agreement with H.L. Mencken but he wrote some great books and articles on the pitfalls of Democracy and the virtues of Liberty. America has become way too dependent on Governments (Local, State, Federal). Total dependence is exactly what the Communist Dems want.
The usurpers don’t allow their minions to read books like that – or even become aware of their existence; they’re compelled to ban & burn those – kryptonite yo the usurpation agenda.
I don’t think there is any one person who can be agreed with 100% all the time for any of us; as it should be, nobody’s all-knowing, all-seeing, equally experienced, OR perfect.
I do agree 100% with “America has become way too dependent on Governments (Local, State, Federal). Total dependence is exactly what the Communist Dems want.”
I’ll add ‘America has become way too tolerant of gov’t. encroachment & erosion of citizens’ Rights’; civics education having been removed from lower education & replaced with “socialIST” studies so We The People would grow up not noticing the encroachment.
Total dependence on the puppet masters is fully accomplished with the minions – who can’t articulate any factual logic or evidence for why they are doing what they are doing… because they believe & do & say what the usurped/ mockingbird media = their “Democratic-Socialist” cough*commie*cough generals tell them to believe & do & say; without questioning.
So I should’a included this earlier… to illustrate how the definitions imposed of words used by the usurpers are sometimes selective if not changed entirely.
Liberty noun.
…
1 : the quality or state of being free:
a: the power to do as one pleases
We don’t have the liberty to change our plans on a moment’s notice.
b: freedom from physical restraint
… when the state detains a person, it takes away their liberty, but it cannot deny a person their humanity
…
3: an action going beyond normal limits
… d: a distortion of fact
The movie takes many liberties with the actual events.
…”
{ https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/liberty }
other definitions in there are the commonly accepted to mean re: less government
As with the word “safe” (re: Vx marketing); MW definition is entirely different from the ConMedpHARMafia/ medical dictionary definition.
Usurping word definitions to mean whatever is deceptive enough to expedite the agenda… words for the deceivers be like ‘genders’…
“Human gender is fluid & changeable, separate from biological sex chromosomes”.
They keep on repeating “democracy” to gaslight Americans into forgetting we are a Constitutional Republic.
Yes, we are not a Democracy and for a good reason. They don’t like the word “Liberty” because it means less Government control.
This dude taught at the War College for 25 years and doesn’t know the definition of, democracy? Or more accurately, he knows the exact definition of democracy and gleefully spoon feeds the actual “mis/dis/mal information” to his drooling followers.
Agreed – he just hates the ‘Republic” part of Constitutional Republic – clearly the brilliance of which is exponentially above his intellectual pay grade; there’s a Dunning-Krueger Effect definition a bit earlier today here that fits congruently with this guy too.
There are so many lucid commenters @Datarepublican, which makes me optimistic, as a few have tagged Sec. Hegseth+++…
and fortunately Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
just one of many –
from Shelly:
“Tom Nichols comments & advises on military matters w/ zero mil experience. And after reading his book quotes, I wonder why he’s still employed. Benedict Arnold Nichols fits better.
I’m curious if he gets paid for appearances etc. Would be interesting to check his funding sources.”
Great point… who in the devil’s name gave that usurper-of-students’-perspective a book deal???
Nichols is exactly the type of POS that Hegseth said he is getting away from. The War College is about war strategy and involves a lot of levers, but it isn’t a place to be led by Ivy League prof wannabes.
The attacks and doxxing of DataRepublican are unconscionable.
She must be causing damage to the dem apparatus.
Her linkage of NGO’s to violent dem-activist groups is quite revealing.
Did someone say ACME ???
Yes, and this is a Red State. Texas also has out of control Property Taxes.
The state government does not control property taxes, the local governments do.
What is the city of Nashville? It’s demoncrap of course.
And in Florida…
DeSantis is making noise about repealing property taxes, but it will never happen, is just political BS of the Nth Degree of Magnitude
Yes, you are 100% correct about being County control. I did some checking and Property Values are a major factor. Nashville has some super wealthy residents that have very expensive properties. Also it being an ?in place to be” property values have soared. Being under Communist Dem control is also a massive problem. There is no State Income Tax so Property Taxes are being leveraged to generate more income. This site has some good information.
https://sycamoretn.org/property-tax-capacity-and-effort/
You must be referring to the Big liberal cities of Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio types. Because in my part of East Texas my property tax of 32 acres, 3 BR house, 4 outbuildings is $148/year.
Yup, NH too!
Tennessee doesn’t have high property taxes. This is about Nashville being a loony haven.
Yes, I agree. It’s also Property value driven and Property Taxes are leveraged because there is no State Income Tax. This site has some information. I have no idea how valid it is.
https://sycamoretn.org/property-tax-capacity-and-effort/
Its called Acme Feed and Seed. Property taxes $129K to $600K. Apparently, it’s a place for local talent muscians to show their talent. I guess the owner revitalized an old feed and seed warehouse. Building looks like that.
Mayor said, “oh well, old business closes, new opens”. 110% mayor was suggested to do this by big music to rid them of real possibly country music competition of their faux country woke tripe. This guy was probably promoting real old school country music.
Of course mayor has been rewarded handsomely.
Mayor was probably installed by big fake music money. I guess real music just has to uproot and put energies toward building up smaller place. Make sure its real nonwoke small town. Of course a real non woke town would probably say, thanks, but no thanks. We’re fine as we are.
Question here. How is Branson, MO. I’ve never been is it still decent or has it gone woke for the bribe money, too?
I was wondering why it’s property tax increase and this guy says higher than his rent, etc. I went to local Nashville “paper”. Someone else owns the building, this guy rents the building and revitalized it. Of course property tax transfer is common business. Good possibility is the owner wants him out to replace him with woke crap. “Talked” with mayor/council on how to get him out and I’ll bring woke crap here. Property taxes may drop on owner once this “problem” guy is gone.
Kelo v. New London, 2005 Supreme Court case, eminent domain, property rights, legal precedent, public use, constitutional law
In ‘Kelo vs New London’, the Court illegally amended the Constitution to say “Public purpose” instead of “Public use”. But a Public purpose can be anything under the sun
That allowed New London to seize Kelo’s private property to sell it to another private owner, Pfizer. Who, BTW, never did anything with it.
This sounds like a similar taking on behalf of another greedy party, only using a property tax instead of eminent domain.

Trump Pledges to Release the Alien Files: ‘Extremely Interesting’

The world doesn’t stop because the Epstein files were released or an 81 year old woman was a abducted but now everything is a diversion from the Epstein files. First Obama brought this up not Trump. Trump ordered all the files released, that is his job, the redactions and release themself are not his job.

“The Democrat congresswoman further revealed, “There is a lot of conversation about what the dismantlement of the Department of Homeland Security should look like.”
Omar’s comments come after she and other Democrat lawmakers — like Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) — stoke the flames of resistance in reaction to routine U.S. law enforcement operations in recent weeks.”

They have to act as if they’re actually doing something. Protesters have come to the realization that in fact, ICE hasn’t left, or is leaving anytime soon and they’re angry about being misled. Walz and Frey were all giddy last week telling people in news conferences that ICE was leaving with strong enough language to imply that All of the agents were leaving. Protesters took to social media and acted like they chased ICE out of the city. Anyone paying attention knew that DHS has been busy fortifying Fort Snelling as their home base all a long. Now ICE has changed their tactics and protesters don’t know who who to follow. Also. Someone recently burned down the Good memorial.

One of the most beautiful Nativity scenes I ever saw was one hand carved out of Olive Wood. The wise men were about 12″ tall with the other pieces to scale. I love your carvings , do you do things like Nativities ? I so regret that I did not purchase years ago and haven’t seen anything close to similar. I know many artist have a certain style and subject matter they like to stay with. Your work is both unique and creative. Do you display your work at Art shows or is this a pass time?
Anticipated this “Big Lie” to start circulating before the mid-terms.
Same dim playbook as in 2019, despite all evidence to the contrary claim the economy was fine under Obama or now Biden and President Trump messed things up.
“On Thursday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “The Last Word,” House Budget Committee Ranking Member Rep. Brendan Boyle (D-PA) argued that President Donald Trump messed up “an economy in which inflation is easing and economic growth is advancing” that he inherited from former President Joe Biden.”

No snake
Hi, bjorkdream. Beautiful images, as usual. Do you mean what looks like a long, black tail near the base of the tree? All I could find.
Truli…yes going into the fern…..my eyes playing tricks i guess.
I see one to the right of the long dark vine on the ground…I think 🤔
Thune? I missed him.
Yes, he is quite the snake in the grass 😅

If this poll is accurate then there is a huge mis-understanding among voters of the hidden costs of solar energy and that it is only on the commercial grid because – government subsidies.
Kellyanne Conway shilling for the solar energy industry.

Poll: 75% of Trump Voters Support Expanding Solar Energy in the U.S.1
A survey released Thursday by former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway reports strong backing among Trump voters for increasing solar energy production to bolster the nation’s power supply.
Polling by KAC Consulting. Any guesses who KAC is?

It is the start of primary season in America.
Know your state’s schedule.
Your individual MAGA votes will determine who controls the house and senate in 2027 – 2028.
We faced the same thing in 2022 and 2024 and our individual MAGA votes out numbered the RINOs and democrats.
We were successful in 2022 and 2024, so the trend is on our side.
Why?
Because President Trump’s MAGA movement has the numerical, economic, moral, intellect and armed majorities in America. If each MAGA America Firster votes for MAGA candidates, we win.
It was proven in 2022 and 2024. It will be proven in 2026 if YOU get out and vote.
Please vote for the sake of your children and grandchildren.
Here is a link that shows all of the states primary election dates.
https://ballotpedia.org/2026_election_and_voting_dates
_______________________________________
MAGA / American Firster’s own the local / state / federal primary elections.
Prepare your list of MAGA candidates to vote for before you vote.
_______________________________________
For example, our list in Texas would be:
Governor’s race: Greg Abbott will win despite having to run against 10 RINO candidates.
Senate race: Ken Paxton will win despite having to run against 7 RINO candidates, including the incumbent, what’s his name.
Lt. Governor’s race: Dan Patrick will win despite having to run against 3 RINO candidates.
Attorney General: Aaron Reitz will win despite having to run against 3 RINO candidates, including that never-trumpster “chippy roy “… who President Trump ran out of the House in DC …… causing him to try to find another government job.
Comptroller: Christi Craddick will win despite having to run against 3 RINO candidates, including huffy-huffines, the RINO’s perennial losing candidate akin to the democrat’s beto. What’s next for huffy? Dog catcher? That would be a good match for him.
Railroad Commissioner: Bo French will win despite having to run against 4 RINO candidates.
Commissioner of AG: Sid Miller will win against 1 RINO.
FOR REFERENCE:
Here is the link to President Trump’s endorsements by year. He doesn’t endorse in every race.
You can tell a lot by who President Trump doesn’t endorse, like incumbent senator corneyyyy in Texas.
https://ballotpedia.org/Endorsements_by_Donald_Trump
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
And they are who I voted for yesterday.
Don’t know what Wesley Hunt’s Republican bonifides are, but he’s definitely bringing fire.
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2026/02/19/exclusive-wesley-hunt-unveils-dont-vote-democrat-ad-blasting-cornyns-gun-control-amnesty-record/
JMO.
He is actually a splitter candidate in the Texas senate race.
He is in the race to try to split the vote, allowing corny to survive the initial vote and get into a runoff. He won’t be successful.
AG Paxton will either win the senate contest outright or will win it in the runoff.
Either way, cornyn will be retired because of his never-trumpster record.
President Trump’s refusal to endorse cornyn over Paxton shows his disapproval of the incumbent for the lack of corny’s support for President Trump’s MAGA / America First agenda, aka corny showed his true, globalist RINO stripes.
TX has open primaries so expect a lot of dims to vote for cornhole in this primary.
Plus he currently need cornyn’s support for the SAVE America Bill.
Post to repeat the statement that Hunt appears to be a “Splitter Candidate.” JMO, as Cactus opines, but it also looked that way to me from the get-go.
Have seen the splitter tactic in action right before me in the past, and am always suspicious about it; the swamp always looks for ways to weaken the opposition.
Look back…………he likes Liz Chenny

President Trump held the first meeting of the Board of Peace. Here are the European members:
Europe/Eurasia: Hungary, Bulgaria, Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kosovo.
Our long term major European allies didn’t participate – are they therefore the Board of War? You know that nasty Ukraine thing and having to fund NATO and the tariffs and Greenland and all the stuff they want us to fund?
Flwolverine,
Good observations.
President Trump has a plan for the long term, treasonous EU elites and he is stickin’ to it.
Be on the lookout for the REPURPOSING OF NATO.
The USA isn’t going to get out of “2026” NATO.
Instead, with the aim towards securing the eastern flank of the USA. … President Trump will use his MAGA skills to turn the resources of the multi-country NATO defense force from mainly concentrating on Russia, to concentrating on the European’s (not EU) new enemy within their walls, …….. the dangerous, non-nationals who have been allowed to invade their countries.
America’s expelling of the illegals out of it borders will be an example of what needs to be done in Europe to expel all of the dangerous, non-nationals out of their countries.
NATO (funded mainly by the Europeans) will be “repurposed” from defending against Russia to deporting the hordes of dangerous non-nationals who have been let into Europe’s borders, much like biden’s treacherous open borders let in 26,000,00 non-nationals into the USA.
The demand for expulsion, following the example of President Trump’s mass deportation of America’s invaders, will come from the citizens of each country through NATO, not from their leaders.
Along with using NATO to deport the non-nationals, the citizens will vote out the crop of globalist / communist leaders who got them into the EU mess in the first place, aka America’s 11/5/24 election.
TOTAL EXIT, coming as the dangerous hordes are driven out of each European country (including Ireland) and the remaining nationalist citizens vote in MEGA politicians, Make-Europe-Great-Again politicians.
BREXIT was just a trial run.
EU, destined for the ash pile of socialist / communist failures, on President Trump’s watch.
MAGA / America First, not just our motto, it is our duty!
Sort of amazing that one day after the inaugural meeting of the “Board of Peace” all we are hearing about is WAR. But don’t worry it will only last a few weeks at most. Isn’t that was they said with Russia invaded Ukraine or Bush invaded Iraq.
Based on These Remarks, No Wonder Why DC Water Is a Total Trainwreck

DC Water’s Manager David Gadis: “We had too many white men in charge” “The executives should reflect the city” DC just had the largest sewage spill in US history: 240 𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙤𝙣 gallons in one month FLOODING the Potomac
Yet we found documents that show that the National Park Service has been aware of the problem and trying to address it since at least 2022.
2022, that would be the Biden administration, but of course it’s all Trump’s fault.
Well there is your white man.
German Court Orders X To Hand Over Data To NGOs Searching For Election ‘Disinformation Or Foreign Interference’
https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/german-court-orders-x-hand-over-data-ngos-searching-election-disinformation-or-foreign
DRI maintained that this data is essential for identifying “possible risks of disinformation or foreign interference” within the Hungarian electoral landscape.
Following X’s initial refusal, the Berlin high court intervened, ruling that the company must comply under the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA). The DSA grants verified researchers the legal right to extract data from major digital platforms to monitor systemic risks. Opponents of the DSA contend that these researchers aren’t organizations are adamantly opposed to
Notably, during the presidential elections in Romania, the government moved to invalidate the entire vote, claiming Russia interfered on TikTok in favor of Călin Georgescu, who was the favorite to win the presidency in all major polling.
So leftist Germany wants to interfere in right leaning Hungary’s elections?
More virtue signaling language about “disinformation” while the Euroweenies interfere in elections that are not to their liking.
We had a Treeper referenced this article earlier. It is written by Raheem Kassam and he provides his
responses to Steve Bannon and the Epstein Files. There are many comments which are thoughtful and informative.
As Sundance advises us frequently ~ Do your own research as we are subject to many agendas and influences which are not always productive for us who seek truth.
https://open.substack.com/pub/raheemkassam/p/the-very-obvious-bannon-epstein-op?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web
That is a very good article – with proof – by Raheem
In summary,
-Bannon supports DJT, strongly
-Bannon did not support ep, and has shared true stories to tell about ep
– the contrived dust up and implying guilt by association is a political ploy, sick wooden nickels by typical rino / c-dems ( currently looking to fake people into supporting Sen cor nie ( TX)
where Bannon has been sheding the light on those are appeasing the sharia law infiltrators that are currently playing pretend nice ( but in reality, not nice ).
– the people taking the rino / c-dem negative bait ( again )
may want to seek the whole truth ( and look at verified actions )
Raheem ( national pulse ) helps to correctly connect the dots…per the above link.
And so have some posters on the CTH.
Love thy neighbors
…
Very interesting – Thank you for noting it and providing.
Suspicion as to “dramatically appearing public information” which targets a specific person or program is a necessary hallmark in the current world. Do not see Bannon without faults, but then I also look in the mirror now and again and do not see a perfect person there either.
Yes. I would like to see Steve Bannon use his program and dissect these text messages “ Brick by Brick” so we can understand what the context was of these text messages.
I think it’s his responsibility to bring his audience the truth.
Many millions know of him and he has a big enough megaphone to address this for all willing and interested in these disclosures. I’d like to hear from him directly.
Thoughts?
Time demands. Does it warrant the necessary time? Your point as to deconstructing narratives, using this as an example perhaps warrants it. Not sure enough enough people are deep enough in the weeds for it to be an effective time user – there is so much feces hitting the fans every day that the fans cannot keep up. Just do not know.
Maybe Sundance needs to take his own advice …….What was the warning…..There are pretenders in the movement trying to divide MAGA….especially those using the Epstein files…..
Trump Sought Vast Budget Cuts. Congress Granted Few.
In a series of deals over the past three months, lawmakers rejected some of the president’s most aggressive attempts to whittle down the government.

Figures. Those who eat at the govt trough don’t want their meals reduced even if it helps every taxpayer in America. The republicans are just as bad as the Dems.
They can’t get kickbacks from budget cuts.
The left is at war with MAGA and that war is being fought by local LE. To me that burden should be borne by The War Department. I would have no problem if the Seals were used to arrest Antifa rioters and members in country! These kinds of attacks/terrorism will only escalate! I’m fed up with the violence of the left!!! JMO

This should be shared everywhere by as many people as possible. She is the epitome of what the Dems/left will be like going forward. There’s no cooperation, agreement or working for Americans. It’s all about power and smashing any opposition they get using very destructive methods.
All voters need to see and hear them 24/7 and understand what’s in store if we do not make sure they do not grab control of the govt. in 2026 and 2028.
Hint: That’s not a vision of “America.” That’s a vision of the worst sort of nation that America crossed the world’s oceans, twice, in order to eliminate.
Totalitarians don’t like it when they don’t quickly get their way – they start killing people and throwing them in prison. (Look what they did, for four years without trial, to those who attended “J6!”)
Oddly enough, it is the totalitarians themselves who finally get killed. “Robespierre” thought that the guillotine was a wonderful instrument of social change, until it came for him!
They will scream out their frustration. But they don’t realize that there are 320 million people in this country, most of whom still value this country and will not let it be taken. From without, nor from within.
She’s delusional!!! “The damage these people are doing is too severe to the America people and to our national interest”???? What closing our borders, lowering inflation, deporting illegal aliens, lowering taxes, raising the GDP etc are severe? Wot?
Is she testing the waters as a potential Dem nominee? She meets all of the requirements: female, minority, totalitarian mindset, and not a smidgeon of corruption. Except perhaps for that little tête-à-tête on the tarmac.
She’s in the middle of Russiagate. Squarely in the middl.

The second Trump administration would be a great learning opportunity for them but, being closed-minded communists, they’re simply uneducable.
She’s another one that was neck deep in the attempted 2016 thru 2020 coup d’etat. It was ultimately successful through the fraudulent 2020 election-
She would be having her meals at Gitmo if we had a functional DOJ.
Not any subtlety from Ms Rice, huh?
Isn’t a threat like this from an office-holder – a sitting senator – illegal ? It is raw and unfiltered intimidation and/or a form of quid pro quo.
Good one! Funny!😆
The cover-up of the COVID nightmare keeps getting more and more interesting…clearly criminal. It SHOULD be big news but given the news cycle now, oh well. Looking at more data on how the gov suppressed effective treatments…not just ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, but plain ol’ aspirin. Additional supportive links on the site…

It’s incredible to me that people are not in an uproar.
But, they are still wearing masks outside and in their cars..
The “covid” was a fake epidemic, designed to convince people to take the lethal “clot-shot”…
Strange how that long standing advice regarding a baby aspirin a day for heart health was inexplicably rescinded just as ‘clot shots’ were all the rage. It’s almost as if they *wanted* Americans to clot up and die suddenly!

Saint George the Holy Great-Martyr and Trophy-Bearer (+ 303) please pray for and protect the remaining original Christians in the Holy Land and the Levant, especially the village of Taybeh.

Court rejects tariffs at least under the statute Trump used. Opinion by Roberts. 6-3.
Thomas, Alito and Kavanaugh dissented.
Ouch. Hope there’s another way to get those tariffs put back. This is a major blow to all that Pres. Trump is doing on trade to protect the USA.
The Insurrection Act and PEADS. Arrest the rogue justices. Simple. If Trump had gone postal on Day 1, none of this would be happening. We would already be rebuilding the country our Founders envisioned.
SCOTUS just threw out the President’s tariffs. It was obvious that Roberts would vote against the country. But Gorsuch and Barrett also defected. Disgusting
