Japan to establish an independent foreign intelligence agency by FY2027. – The Japan Times
https://nitter.poast.org/Osint613/status/2082051567306301601#m
The Financial Times reports that the UAE is reopening diplomatic and commercial ties with Iran while simultaneously strengthening defense cooperation with the U.S. and Israel. The strategy reflects Abu Dhabi’s effort to reduce tensions with Tehran without weakening its security partnerships, balancing economic interests with regional deterrence. A serious balancing act…

Tousi has been successful in moving to FL – having been subject to intense censorship and harassment by the UK government.
This is his first broadcast in the US.
Three scheduled public executions of young patriots in the city of Isfahan. The public begin to assemble in protest, also clamoring to drown out the call to prayer – and the IRGC opened fire.
Crickets from Western corporate trad media, human rights groups, as usual.
Oops – my mistake; he’s not yet in the US. Sorry.
Thank you for this! 👍
Drowning out their call to prayer needs to happen here in the U.S. When they start their incoherent babbling, crank up the boom box with God Bless America, the National Anthem and Victory In Jesus!
Church bells should ring with a call to prayer for Christians.
Or Metallica…
Get the dogs barking and the pigs squealing, barbeque smoke in the air
Bagpipes. Loud and annoying, a fitting accompaniment to the call to satanic prayer.
Ahhh, Yes… Bagpipes!
But, Risa, those of us that have a drop or two of Scottish Blood in our veins know the beautiful Bagpipe music was originally intended to frighten their opponents when in battle…
jjoy, my Scottish blood rises to the pipes.
I have never been to visit the home of my Great Grandparents.
But, the very first time, as a child, I heard a piper play at a funeral my hair stood up and I had to control my tears.
It was a strange experience and has remained with me.
When a member of our congregation, who played bagpipes for The Citadel, played Amazing Grace as he walked into the sanctuary, I was quite emotional. Very Moving!
Indeed.
Me too, Truli… When I hear those pipes, the “Black Watch” in my veins starts to boil…
Loud and annoying?
What!?
The sound of my never defeated people marching out to whip ass!
“The ends justify the means” “If it feels good do it” “Stick to the man” Those of us old enough remember these meaningless slogans, some of us even bleated out this crap, time and again.
One thing commie leftist, aka Alinsky acolyte do well is, walk in a straight line. They took over, education (Another thing Carter helped along with amnesty for draft doggers, they went straight into the University system pushing the system hard left (the plan), politics, culture, etc. and dutifully follow orders from HQ no matter how stupid.
Like: “Cut the winky off your little boy!” in response, “Okay, Trump is Hitler!”
These people are as dumb as a stump, there is simply no middle ground or coming to an understanding, think of negotiating with the IRGC/Iran, it’s silly. The only way you will come to an understanding with these people is when you kick their teeth in and read them the Riot Act.
Same goes for the loudmouth Karen’s still screeching their nonsense, they are a disease who simply want to destroy, like our Barry O’s “Hope & Change” rubbish, he came to destroy. Everything that installed, no account weasel did benefit America, but to weaken America. “W” that pant smear, pulled off flawlessly the setup, with Electronic Voting, The Patriot Act, Terror War, We’re all God’s children”, QE I-II-III, to Barry for the kill.
Note: Wife and I voted for Poppy and “W”, donated and defended them, forgive me.
With the information we now have the lines that draw themselves if you look. If I have another person tell me what they heard on an enemy MSM news actor, I will vomit on their shoes.
Get your heads about you, get your brains in gear because we as Americans have been led down the Primrose Path, at a jog since JFK 1963.
I love my country, I love the Founding of the USA, I love my God and His son Jesus, I love my family, but I despise our installed government. Everything we’ve been subjected to is provable fraud.
I never used to ask, why? I had my life, my wife, my family, my businesses and left government to the politicians, you know, after all we’re all Americans!?
MAGA! …with God is the only “plan”!
“Everything we’ve been subjected to is provable fraud.”
This is my conclusion also. With the latest revelation that Mamdani stole his election with at least 230,000 illegal votes against his 207,000 margin of so called victory, along with the Oregon anti hunting and fishing petition found to have about 38,000 illegal signatures out of 142,000, fraud is coast to coast and part of everything the democrats do. And that doesn’t even take into account the fraudulent media paid by China to favor them and slam Trump.
The question is, “is there anything that isn’t totally biased or manipulated by fraud?”
Thank you for giving your confession on my behalf. This is identical to my history as I was born in 1939.
The left and the LSM scream ‘AFFORDABILITY” while pretending that adding 15 million illegals (undocumented workers) given BPT cards and subsidized rent doesn’t affect demand.
They don’t have self-awareness. They pretend that Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris and AOC are/were qualified to be president. George W. could be added to the list as he was promoted by the Uniparty. They are afraid to write/broadcast/telecast the truth.
Truth like the mind is a terrible thing. Traditional clergy is also afraid to speak the truth, they might offend someone and lose membership and money. Education and religion like government need their stables cleaned.
Ok, GW wasn’t ideal but he doesn’t even compare with the likes of Biden, Obama, Harris and AOC. Promotion by the Uniparty is not the same as promotion by terrorists and communists.
It ain’t just America. It appears that nearly every civilized country’s citizens have been deceived and they are being taken over by the forces of evil.
How about a 30 thousand foot review Sundance? So much going on and most of it improving our national situation. What’s your opinion?
In sum over the last few weeks we are getting huge reveals on vote fraud, Biden’s criminal activity, Fauci’s criminal activity and
Journos in china’s pocket (fake news indeed).
Zelinsky getting desperate, Russia still slowly advancing and Iran going way broke…..both countries should collapse in a real world.
Can’t even begin to list it all……best news is that finally Mom and Pop couch potato are clued in to the dims being full socialist and that the vote fraud equals an illegitimte government.
Call your Senator and congress critter and tell then to pass the save act and ask them to prove their legitimacy by so doing……
all of our congress and most of state and local officials might just not be legitimately elected……think about it.
“When all is revealed, 98% of Washington will fall.”
~ Julian Assange
TRUTH!
“In sum over the last few weeks we are getting huge reveals on vote fraud, “
Trouble is: “huge reveals on vote fraud” ain’t gonna fix our major problem of stolen elections, ’cause
38 States will still use the fraudulent machines to count our votes in the mid-term elections…
Meanwhile our President is worried about the “Save America Act” which doesn’t even mention the fraudulent machines…
As a consequence. our “elections” are still wide-open to “election steal” and will remain wide-open even if the “Save America Act” is passed by the congress and signed in to law by President Trump, because it doesn’t address the fact that our votes will still be counted by machines proven to help the commies steal elections.

I don’t know if you all have been paying attention, but there has been a lot of geologic activity lately. Japan hit with 7.1 quake directly under population centers. Interestingly, Japan measures shaking intensity along with richter measurements. The 7.1 quake actually pegged out the shaking intensity scale which only goes to 7.0. So 7.1 quake with 7.0 shaking intensity. Hoping the best for Japan, but they may get hit again.
The trouble with earthquakes is not that you don’t know they’re coming …
It’s that you never know when they’re GONE.
After Loma Prieta, we slept in the front hallway, fully clothed, for about two weeks. Because you never knew if the latest aftershock was “the Big(ger) One.” After that experience, we moved away.
We lived on the Silicon Valley side of the Santa Cruz Mountains and we could hear the mountains shaking 2-3 seconds before we felt it. That was the first earthquake that made me believe the house was going to collapse. While running out of the house I smashed through the front screen door because the door handle moved out of the way. Branham High School swimmers were tossed out of the pool. Being lead by CHP in a car caravan from Los Gatos to Scott’s Valley or Scott’s Valley to Los Gatos weaving from one side of Highway 17 to the other as we traveled for months.
Lived in Pleasanton Ca. both fire places fell away from the house. Water in the pool went up and over the house.
And we just thought hurricans were bad! 😬
SF and LA are due next. Part of the same “Pacific ring of fire”.
Some say NYC
Don’t even think about Yellowstone.
For sure!🫣
When that one blows none of this nonsense going on will matter.
Japan is part of the “ring of fire” and susceptible to earthquakes. The History Channel has an informative documentary on it (link here).
Around the 1:50 mark it details where this ring of fire is.
Viewed an interesting article on the History Channel about how many animals can sense an earthquake before it happens with a window of over twenty minutes. Some animals sense earthquakes before heavy shaking starts by detecting fast-moving primary seismic waves (P-waves) and low-frequency sound waves called infrasound through specialized biological sensors in their feet, inner ears, and bones.
This is a phenomena that was referenced as far back as 375 BC in Greek. Scientists in China and Japan are investigating the possibility of using this phenomenon to predict earthquakes. Fascinating.
Certain dogs can also feel bad weather coming.
Why ‘thunder shirts’ are popular.
Herding breeds seem to be more sensitve to this.
I wonder if it could be a feature in their genes as these breeds worked out in the weather.
It never bothered my Corgis and Truli would go out and try to chase the storm away.
My Sheltie had to be medicated if we knew it was coming.
What they never seem to tell us is the duration of the earthquake. 30 seconds duration at 7.0 does a hell of a lot more damage than 3 seconds.
The bigger it is, the longer it lasts. Alaska 1964 >9 went for four minutes. A Richter 3 is one jolt.
(Was in LA area for Whitter 5.5, Upland 5.5, Northridge 7.something, Big Bear, Landers, in Idaho for Stanley 6.2, near the edge of the shaking and it woke me from a chemo nap and went for 20 seconds or so.)
The Cajon pass is a border for two pieces of the San Andreas; if one piece has a larger stress load than the other, the quake stops there (last 150 yrs of data). Numbers I saw recently in the same article said both pieces are loaded for bear.

It appears that the majority of Spaniards are not feeling that “warmth of collectivism.” A new poll shows six out of ten Spaniards hold negative opinions of socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s government. This is why socialists often have to wait for memories to pass to get young people, as in New York, to embrace their ideology. It is a cyclic, boom-and-bust pattern where socialists wait for new generations to buy into the same failed policies of prior generations.

Most (US college age) are falling for it hook..line…& sinker!! However, I have 5 grand kids ages 14 to 24 with lots of friends and I am NOT seeing (for the most part) them imbrace this idiotic ideology. ((fingers crossed)).
My grandson 15 who cuts my grass for money says he likes having cash in his wallet!
It’s the overpaid for education but can’t find a commensurate job folks who like socialism. They made terrible choices so everyone else needs to pay. Total idiots and losers. Would never hire a single one because they have not one iota of self-starter or independence in them.
I saw it back in the 60’s/70’s in high school. The teachers/instructors were/are the root of the problem. POTUS (Carter) welcoming the draft dodgers that ran to Canada left a very bitter taste in my mouth!
Same here.
Trying to remember, wasn’t that Spanish Civil war thing the warm up for WWII?
no..
Typical DSA behavior. Seattle press started to question why the press conference after the shooting over the weekend took so long to happen. It happens that Seattle’s police chief lives in Chicago and had to fly into Seattle to attend. Of course the usual suspects like Governor Bobby and Congress critter Payapala had to be there as well. Don’t let a photo op go by.

“Seattle’s police chief lives in Chicago”?????? Why?
Seattle isn’t as safe as Chicago.
Duh.

Chicago hasn’t been “safe” since the Al Capone mob lost control…
Because it is Seattle and the police are non essential.
This story needs national attention, or more of it.
This is a huge city run by a DSA moron. If the general population do not think DSA is a threat and only see the idiot in NYC, look to this disgusting situation.
This appears to be gang violence at the core. Seattle has been a mess for years, but this bizarre story rips back the curtain.
Everybody but the girl out of her parent’s basement (mayor) was out of town. It’s not the tragic shooting, although innocent people sadly lost their lives while teenagers shot each other up, its the city, state and federal officials. Jaypaal or whatever her name is, was in MI stumping with squad types, the governor was at a kids sports event and the Chicago resident was in Chicago. The kid out of the basement couldn’t handle it herself and each try is worse than the one before. A true but deadly clown show.
Everyone is governed by Community Tribunals. that are composed of the winners of Cage Matches with one major weapon (see list) allowed.

Re-elect Donald J Trump to save our nation.
I disagree.
Our salvation cannot rest with an 80 year old man, who has sacraficed and risked much to illuminate the path we are on as a nation.
It is up to us, in our homes, our communities, our daily lives, to find our individual ways to right the ship. Some have a bigger megaphone than others, but it took decades of ignorance and indifference to get where we are and will take the same, one generation at a time, to fix the moral and ethical morass we find ourselves in.
Agree. Time for Vance/Rubio/Tulsi to take the wheel.
Partly wrong. 80 year old man or not, he’s all we got. Righting the ship? We must right the ship right here, right now. We have until the mid-terms to right the ship. Whoever thinks we have years to fix America is living in a dream world. We have a few months at most! And our President REFUSES to take the level of action that IS NECESSARY to save our nation! He is now Mr Rodgers. He refuses to arrest anyone! He refuses to dispense justice to anyone! He refuses to even go after those who damn near un-alived him in Butler PA! For those who are unaware, POTUS is THE chief law enforcement officer in America. The DoJ works for HIM! He calls the shots. One phone call is all it would take. To fix America HUNDREDS of people if not thousands, MUST be rounded up by the military. Beginning with Obama, Brennan, Pelosi, the Clintons, Val Jar, Rice, Comey, Wray, Sunstein, McConnell and on and on. EVERY seditionist must be taken off the streets and prevented from operating against America. Our country cannot be saved with these traitors free to sabatage the President and MAGA. They MUST be jailed overseas and held incommunacado. No lawyers, no crooked judges getting involved. Most of congress, most of SCOTUS, MOST of the judiciary, many in the MSM, most of the Intel agents, ALL of the FBI, CIA and most of the State Dept. MUST be arrested. THAT, and more are what it would take to save America. Can it be done? YES! Would it be constitutional? YES. Would I trust anyone but Trump with this power? NO! But it must be done. It must be done NOW! Research The Presidential Emergency Action Documents. They give POTUS the power to “take over the entire government” in case of a dire national emergency. Like we have right now. Also, we need the Insurrection Act, and use parts of the NDAA to be able to use the military inside the US vs “Americans.” BTW, you know or should know, that the “Posse Commitatus Act” no longer exists. It was gutted in the first NDAA. But our POTUS is busy with trying to deal with terrorists, make a deal with anyone & everyone. Everything is a deal to him. He never learned, THIS IS NOT THE BUSINESS WORLD, IT’S THE REAL WORLD, and they play for keeps. They are not honorable people, they don’t do deals, they use force. Iran is running Trump in circles. Carpet bomb them, then come save America before it’s too late. Please Mr Rodgers…I mean President Trump! .
Still need more work to be done on getting DEI out of Hollywood.

Gotta find the right courthouse though, that’s the problem. So many judges would not have been appointed if not for all the cheating, and those judges know that. They are protecting themselves, their ideologies, and their careers goals more than anything else. Gone are the days of blind justice.
Those so-called judges don’t want to end up in jail. That would be a good thing for us, not so good for them!

This is exactly why Mamdani asked bodega owners which products they sell the most of and which products they make the most money on. The bodega owners, for their part, refuse to answer. His people wanted to know so they could under cut private groceries where they make the most money. Disgusting commie! Bet you anything once he runs all the Jewish people out of town and all the Italians, and all the private business owners he will replace them with Muslims and then suddenly reverse course and allow them to run private businesses.
It has been postulated that he is intentionally running all the wealthy out of town so that he and his cabal can obtain those properties/businesses for a song, if that.
Once the Jihadist Party owns New York City it will be a powerful influence on the rest of the nation.
The evidence is out. Burden of proof achieved. Death penalty for Fauci is appropriate due process resolution.
Years ago I was actually being more forgiving to Fauci because I saw him as being controlled by more powerful forces; essentially I thought Fauci was a useful idiot. Now the evidence shows it was actually Fauci in control.
President Trump was betrayed by Fauci and I think the President needs to be more vocal about that fact and start calling for serious punishment.

I didn’t know the background of Fauci early on…but had suspicions as to his motives and that of the Media fanning the Covid flames.
When I saw him give Jonathan Karl the thumbs up after a press conference with President Trump confirmed my suspicions that this was a premediated, carefully organized with multiple agencies involved attack against the Republic and our President.
Mail in ballots, attacks against conservative institutions such as Churches and Schools. Perpetrators profited by manipulating the Stock Market…riding it down and then riding it up…
There are many more figures in the shadows that need to be flushed out besides Fauci…and they need to be held accountable…
Fauci and his equally guilty team should be brought up on charges of willfully acting to give the POTUS wrong information which POTUS then had to make decisions on for the whole country re Covid and its treatments. This alone should be a major lawsuit against the guy. But he is protected by his pardons unless some clever lawyer can figure out a real legal work around the pardons and get this guy for some justice to all the millions of people who died and suffered under his false information actions.
When Fauci told Hillary he loved her, I knew he was a sicko…
This wasn’t just Fauci. This was a DS integrated plan with psyop as a bonus.
Both good friends with Pelosi.
And Bill Gates!
Fauci is controlled by and answers only to Satan!
It’s the DOJ and FBI that needs to do that since President Trump cannot investigate or arrest and he is a little busy.

The Women Who Get Eaten by Coyotes | Frontpage Mag:
And children.
“In 2009, Taylor Mitchell, a 19-year-old woman, went hiking in a Canadian park on a public trail and was attacked by coyotes. Some hikers heard her screams as she was assaulted for half an hour, but did nothing to help, when rescue finally arrived, she was conscious and bleeding badly.
The young woman was airlifted to the hospital, but did not survive.
Under pressure from environmentalists, Canada, like parts of the United States, had allowed coyotes and wolves to expand their territories, especially the coyote-wolf hybrids who had killed Taylor, and the animals had become increasingly aggressive, wiping out their natural prey, and eventually stalking and attacking humans. The attack on the young woman was one of a series.
Taylor’s mother however pleaded with the authorities to spare the coyotes who had killed her daughter. “When the decision had been made to kill the pack of coyotes, I clearly heard Taylor’s voice say, ‘Please don’t, this is their space.’ She wouldn’t have wanted their demise, especially as a result of her own,” she wrote. “She was passionate about animals, was an environmentalist.”
“We really have a lot of sympathy for her perspective,” a Parks Canada field superintendent replied.”
“Could you pass me the salt and pepper, please?”
The article goes on to list the small children attacked by wolves in California and the actresses who defend them, to the point of slandering the parents. I’d call it the Darwin Awards, but they want Other People’s Children chewed to death.

Rest in the Vine: (from 2002:) “Evil’s Advantage Over Conscience” by Dr. Norman Doidge:
“… Arafat gets endless second chances because the conscience of the West is doing what a conscience does: second-guessing the West’s own actions. That is why Arafat is always playing upon the conscience of the West, especially by his endless recourse to “international law” and invocation of “human rights,” an utterly brazen ploy coming from a terrorist. Law, in the democracies, is like a civic conscience, and like conscience, it is the bluntest of instruments. Because law, in democracies, is made by the people, it has their respect. Democratic citizens are prone to the illusory hope that the law can be applied successfully in international affairs between regimes regardless of whether they are democracies or tyrannies, strong or weak. The name for this hope is “international law.”
But because the law in tyrannies is ultimately the product of one man’s whim, a mere vehicle of the preeminent will and power, it cannot restrain the preeminent will and power. Conscientiousness in no way attaches to the law in tyrannies. International agreements with tyrants are meaningless, yet pursuit of such agreements is precisely what the State Department is now endorsing by trying to get Israel to sit at the table with Arafat. “What is the law?” Saddam Hussein once asked. Then he answered his own question. “The two lines above my signature.”
The psychological mechanism involved is called “identification with the aggressor” and was first described by Anna Freud. When this identification occurs, it is as though the terrorist implants his own ideals and moral code inside his victim’s conscience. The paradigmatic example of this occurred in Stockholm in 1973, when four tellers were held at gunpoint for 131 hours in a bank vault. Soon the captives were expressing more fear of the police who were trying to rescue them than of their captors. One prisoner, in a phone call to the Swedish prime minister, Olaf Palme, said, “The robbers are protecting us from the police.” After the tellers were released, they expressed no hatred for their captors, and even said they were emotionally indebted to them. Throughout the seventies, the Stockholm Syndrome was demonstrated over and over. Americans captured by terrorists in Lebanon emerged from captivity praising the same Arab terrorists who had murdered their fellows. Patty Hearst, kidnapped in California by the Symbionese Liberation Army, did the same.
The Stockholm Syndrome is not a conscious attempt to ingratiate oneself with one’s captors, but an automatic emotional response, seen in many, though not all, captives. With the help of TV, terrorism creates what one might call a “Second-hand Stockholm Syndrome” in the body politic. The goal is to make the target population fall back on wishful thinking, and say, “Maybe if we listen to their demands, they will stop. Maybe the problem is how we are handling the crisis. Maybe we are being too forceful. Maybe they can be reasoned with. Maybe we should hold our fire and give peace a chance.” The citizenry becomes progressively more passive and confused and willing to appease. This confusion is manifest whenever pundits who are apologists for terror speak of terrorist violence as caused not by the perpetrators, but by some abstract “cycle of violence,” suggesting a moral equivalence between the terrorist and his victims and blotting out the reality of barbarism and human psychopathy. How much nicer to live in a world of abstractions than of Richards, Arafats, Saddams, and bin Ladens.
Like Richard, the terrorist is brazen and relentless. America is new to terror on its home soil, and has yet to see relentlessness in action. It is societies such as Israel, targets of sustained terror campaigns, that are most susceptible to the Second-hand Stockholm Syndrome. Israel clearly had a bad case throughout Oslo. This is the period when the Israeli left rewrote Israeli textbooks, dropping most references to the Holocaust and its role in the creation of the state, to the Arab armies’ attacks of 1948, 1967, and 1973, to the utter failure of Western liberal democracies such as France to help save their Jews (which became a major justification for Zionism), and placing a Palestinianocentric view of events before Israeli teenagers who would soon have to serve in the army. While Shimon Peres was arguing in “The New Middle East” (a place which would have no anti-Semitism) that there would be no need for a Jewish state, Israeli intellectuals like the novelist David Grossman were accepting the aggressor’s notion of Jewish self-defense as evil: “The Jews living in Israel are now being asked not only to give up on geographical territories. We must also implement a ‘redeployment’–or even a complete withdrawal–from entire regions in our soul. . . . Slowly, over long years, we will discover that we are beginning to give them up: . . . Giving up on power as a value. On the army itself as a value. . . . On ‘It is good to die for one’s country,’ on ‘The best to the air force,’ . . . and on ‘After me’ [the doctrine that commanding officers lead their troops into danger situations].” The repeated message of that short incantational passage? Israel, drop your sword.
TERRORISTS CAN WORK through language, as did Richard until he had access to violence, or through violence alone. What makes Arafat’s career in terror so remarkable is that when he has had limited access to violence, he has been able to use the very means Richard did to convince his enemies not to run him through. Arafat has been able to paint himself and the Palestinian people as victims because, lacking a conscience, he could glibly encourage Palestinian children to stand as human shields for his snipers. Fighting such an enemy so pricked the conscience of Israel that many Israelis felt they could not live with themselves–even though they knew that Arafat was manipulating them. This was another reason the Israelis ignored common sense, and decided to give in to the Oslo illusion that Arafat could be trusted. It is interesting that the person who finally defeats Richard III in Shakespeare’s play, Richmond, is the one key character who never talks to Richard or gives him a hearing, and thus never comes under his spell. To talk to Arafat, which is what all pundits say must be done to bring peace to the Middle East, is precisely the wrong move, for there is no dialogue with a man without a conscience.
Another wrong move is the game of decriminalizing Arafat. By refusing to punish him for horrendous crimes, as a serious nation would, Israel leaves the world, the Arabs, and itself with the sense that maybe his crimes can be justified, and its own attempts to restrain him from further criminal acts are criminal excesses in themselves. Israel would do better to relentlessly show the world pictures of Arafat’s victims, including the American ambassador he assassinated. Not all criminals are equally brazen. Arafat seems to have the power to neutralize the very foes who see him as most evil, perhaps because they, by virtue of seeing him as virtually the devil incarnate, attribute to him a kind supernatural indestructibility. Such superstition has made many who are far more powerful than Arafat hesitate to end his career. He has effectively used his own brazenness to convince the world that bringing him to justice would be a catastrophe, creating more Arafats by making him a martyr (as though the Middle East lacked for martyrs now).
Spooked, America is unwilling to allow Israel to end Arafat’s reign of terror. Washington has retreated into approaching him with a kind of primitive behavior-therapy that says, “If he renounces terror” or “If he controls terror,” then we will talk to him. It is as though all that matters is to get him to say the right words, never mind his intentions; as if no distinction need be drawn between his strategic goal–the destruction of Israel–and a tactical willingness to say he opposes terror.
Arafat has discovered, as Shakespeare understood, that the more brazen and relentless one’s acts of brutality, the more likely it is that one will be allowed a second chance, and find even powerful men of conscience coming to one’s door offering to forget, to forgive, and to give forgiveness a bad name.”…….
Woof, woof.

Although there was a lot of collateral damage, no one will ever convince me that the primary mission in manufacturing a pandemic panic wasn’t to derail the first Trump economic boom and to create a generation of young Americans dependent on being financially subsidized by the government.
Unfortunately, Mission Accomplished
Agree! There were many reasons! Another one was to thin the herd of Baby Boomers saving billions of dollars that became available for fraud and grifting!!! JMO
and volumes could be written about each one of these and why the “cure” often made matters worse than the disease! And we are left with a population where half (?) has been infected with “The Spike Protein”, whatever that is!

have found this substack site, AI Central, to be worth the read as the author provides links to source material which is important these days when so many news sources rely on getting peoples emotions hiked up (think data centers and water availablity) to keep one’s reasoning, thinking mind shut down.
This article, “Thinking Outside the Box” is about Washington politicians push for oversight in the AI world and that the federal framework for legislation is due to be completed and issued by the end of this week, and that it is the DHS that has oversight on this framework.
from my limited understanding of the situation involved is the ability of these AI networks to escape their limitations and cause potential havoc.

The UN is so complicit in enabling Southern Lebanon’s decades-long transformation into a sprawling terror-base above and below ground, with residential communities embedded in the terror infrastructure Palestinian-style. Stores like this are only meant to create optics to support the fake impression that they would even look for anything, let alone confiscate, defuse, or prevent it.
Perhaps UN peacekeeping is applicable to certain conflicts. However, the UN, UNIFIL and the “peacekeeping” forces have only served as cover to the Islamist terrorists they fear and identify with.
The UN’s law enforcement Arm among Muslim terror is no less compromised than the hapless law enforcement of England and other countries that enable the rape gangs. Which is to say, useless at their best.
Nebraska Dem’s Hot Mic Revelation: A Dem Plan Boosting ‘Independent’ Senate Candidate
A woman who is running for the state legislature in Nebraska as a Democrat is now on video explaining the state Democrat Party’s plan to get a supposedly “independent” candidate into the Senate seat there because he is basically a Democrat.
Dan Osborn wants Nebraska voters to believe he is an outsider, unallied to either major political party, focused on challenging the establishment and helping hard-working families. In reality, he received money from the George Soros-linked Sixteen Thirty Fund, ActBlue, Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s (D-Mass.) campaign, Rep. Jamie Raskin’s (D-Md.) Democracy Summer Leadership PAC, and former Sen. Jon Tester’s (D-Mont.) Treasure State PAC. A union boss with close ties to Osborn’s campaign boasted about doxxing an ICE agent. You get the idea — he’s a leftist Trojan Horse in a state that currently has two Republican senators. That’s apparently why the Democrat Party is secretly pulling the strings to boost his chances.
The current race for the November Senate election in Nebraska is between Osborn and incumbent Sen. Pete Ricketts (R-Neb.). Oddly enough, after running in the Democrat primary against Paxton New Life Lutheran Church pastor William Forbes and winning, Cindy Burbank abruptly filed on July 17 to withdraw, according to Ballotpedia. But according to state Legislature District 2 candidate Caitlin Knutson, this happened because Burbank was a decoy to force Forbes out and ensure Osborn would be the only challenger to Ricketts.

Lies and fraud. It is so ingrained in the left and the leftist media they simply live and breath on the lies.
Here in MN we have a party called Democrat Farmer Labor, DFL. It also is a lie and should be called Democrat Fraudsters Liars and the entire nationwide party should be renamed to that.
As I have said many times, it has been my experience that most Independents are really Democrats in disguise.
Alot of Republican folks in DC are Democrats in disguise……. Thune, Tillis, Turtle. They vote with us on inconsequential things, vote no on real stuff.
So true.

The Trump administration is exposing the truth about DNC/CCP fraud in the 2020 election, while simultaneously exposing the truth about Fauci and Covid.
This is not an accident. These two things are connected.
The People are being briefed and prepared to be told that Covid was a man-made virus released intentionally, as part of the broader plot to remove Trump from office. The Deep State created and released the virus, as part of a regime-change operation. This was the contingency after their Russiagate/Mueller plan failed.
The virus, along with MSM fear and panic, paved the way for “social distancing”. Social distancing paved the way for emergency election overhaul and mass mail-in ballots. The mass mail-in ballots paved the way for unprecedented levels of fraud, and mail-in ballot dumps in swing states in the middle of the night, which all favored Biden.
Covid, in conjunction with election fraud in 2020, is arguably the greatest crime ever committed against humanity, and all of it was done to stop Donald Trump from exposing and obliterating the Deep State, and the crimes they already committed, like Uranium One.
What we are witnessing now, is Trump and his administration slowly preparing the public to swallow this mammoth-sized red pill. It must be done.

How ever tin-foil hattish it may seem, I’m edging closer to being able to prove my hunch that the most deadly batches of Pfizer and Moderna mRNA shots were delivered to US red/MAGA states.
I still feel a bit foolish even mentioning this after 5 years of digging, but I can’t seem to shake it off. 🤪
I suspect a contributor was that shipments to rural areas were mishandled during dividing and distributing smaller batches.
When is someone, anyone important going to be arrested?
Never. The government is so corrupt even the President can’t make it legit.

For those interested in the breakdown of Russian Assets HELD Captive by Nation (in Billions of Euros):
Belgium 180B
France 19B
Luxembourg 10B
Japan 28.1B
UK 26.6B
Canada 15.1B
Switzerland 6.2B
USA 4.3B
Note: The fidelity, security and trustworthiness of the banks in these the nations listed, except for the US and Japan, makes up a major part of the economies of those nations. So, if the EU starts tampering with this money … the real question is what will be the impact on the ability of the Banking Industry in these nations to generate FUTURE BUSINESS as well as on the deals cut for any FUTURE BUSINESS.
This is the reason Belgium has given pause to agreeing to use the sequestered Russian Funds. Belgian Banks rank with Swiss Banks in terms of how they operate internationally.

Fortunately for the world, they picked the wrong virus. Corona viruses mutate constantly – which is why you can “catch a cold” more than once in a season. And that’s exactly what this pathogen did. As it continued to mutate, it rapidly became less and less lethal.
But – make no mistake. When they called for emergency hospitals to be built in sports arena, and for hospital ships, they thought that it would all be needed. They thought that they had invented a plague that would kill thousands of people. And that people would clamor for an mRNA potion that was also engineered to kill even more.
Read about it: “eugenics.” The world must be purged of “excess eaters.”
When their wonder-weapon turned out to be less than they thought, their scheme fell apart. But they will try again someday. The world must be purged of “excess eaters.”
Cover-up Fauci
I’m sick of all the Fauci bs.
Face it, he is not going to court, prison, or anything that holds him accountable.

If Rand Paul put as much effort into getting the SAVE Act passed as he does trying to get Fauci imprisoned, we might actually get it passed.
Sounds about right, Ron B.

RFK Jr. announces California and Minnesota will not receive Medicaid funding unless they meet these demands
More than $1 billion in federal healthcare money stopped moving to two state governments this week. No court order. No congressional vote. Only a phone call away from two governors who now have to prove, in writing, that the money already spent was spent legally. The agency behind the freeze says artificial intelligence helped flag the problem. The states say they’re being targeted for political reasons.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the freeze Tuesday at a news conference in Washington. The Trump administration is freezing more than $1 billion in federal Medicaid funding to California and Minnesota over suspected fraud, with California losing access to roughly $867 million and Minnesota losing access to about $199 million. Kennedy framed the decision as a matter of principle, not punishment.
“They violated the social contract that makes this country strong and makes our democracy function,” Kennedy said, according to The Center Square. Behind that statement sits a specific set of allegations: billing for dead patients, spending spikes with no clear explanation, and claims submitted more than a year after care was supposedly delivered.

Virginia Tech Rector Sues Spanberger: Fired With No Reason Given
Fauci grew increasingly annoyed by Trump as pandemic grew, diary shows
Dr. Anthony Fauci, who led the U.S. response to the Covid-19 pandemic, privately complained about President Donald Trump’s ramblings — and compared him to an “obnoxious adolescent” — in personal diary entries released this weekend.
More than a thousand pages of Fauci’s journal were released by Sen. Rand Paul, who heads the Senate Homeland Security Committee. As part of an investigation into the origins of Covid-19, Paul has called on Fauci to testify on the pandemic before the committee Wednesday. The Kentucky Republican has long peddled the theory that the virus came from a leak at a lab in Wuhan, China, accusing Fauci and other government officials of misleading the public about its source — claims Fauci has denied.
The journal entries date from December 2019, in the lead-up to the outbreak, to December 2022, when Fauci stepped down as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. The diary entries provide insight into the pandemic’s most critical moments, and lawmakers are expected to probe Fauci on Wednesday about what he knew and didn’t know as the pandemic was unfolding.
While some of Fauci’s entries reflect early uncertainty about the source of the virus, others delve into his newfound fame — having become the public face of the pandemic in the U.S. — as well as his fickle relationship with the president.

Senator Mitch McConnell has been absent from Congress for more than a month as he recovers from what he says was a fall. This week, the former Senate majority leader issued a rare new statement on his recovery and a second proof-of-life photo. But he gave no clear timeline for his return to Capitol Hill amid widespread speculation about the specifics of his condition.

Fauci’s Personal Diary Just Got Released and It’s Brutal – Self-Absorbed, Fame-Seeking, Celeb Worshiping, Power Mad Liar
For those of us who habitually question government narratives, Fauci’s behavior set off alarm bells as early as March 2020. Now, we have Fauci’s notes confirming, at minimum, that he did not believe everything he proclaimed publicly.
On Wednesday, per The Hill, Fauci will appear under subpoena before Paul’s committee. How the slippery little bureaucrat will respond when confronted with his own words remains anyone’s guess.

The bits of Fauci’s diary which have been released are enough to prove, in writing, that activists posing as journalists like Jake Tapper and Dana Bash were actively working against the Trump administration while it battled Covid. I will celebrate the day we see proof of Nicolle Wallace’s perfidy. The whole country should see her, and others, for what they are.
While these script readers hated President Trump enough to participate in undermining him at every step, they were also doing a great disservice to the health of every American.
