19 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“If you repent, I will restore you
that you may serve me;
if you utter worthy, not worthless, words,
you will be my spokesman.
Let this people turn to you,
but you must not turn to them.
20 I will make you a wall to this people,
a fortified wall of bronze;
they will fight against you
but will not overcome you,
for I am with you
to rescue and save you,”
declares the Lord.
21 “I will save you from the hands of the wicked
and deliver you from the grasp of the cruel.”
Amen!

Well folks, in my opinion we are now in the true pitchforks & torches time.
Barry once quipped to the bankers, too paraphrase; “The only thing standing you and pitchforks & torches in me” Now in reality the only thing between the swamp rats, State & Federal and the mob is our Great American President Donald J Trump.
Mr. President the time for real justice is NOW!
These glo-bull-ist demons have nearly destroyed the USA and the West; with our continued apathy they will succeed.
Some of the crap they are peddling if it weren’t real it would be laughable, especially as an American. This bugs me to no end. We live in the greatest country on planet earth, see the FIFA fans spontaneous live testimonials a couple months back.
Yet the booger-eating blue haired Karens have successfully over 60 years, accelerated in the last 36 have created young Americans with bleak outlooks on America. With their futures uncertain have a despondency I’ve never seen in my beloved country. They’ve just about made the “good life” unattainable.
The Department of Education (created by Carter with an EO) have done their job.
Their ideas are so great, they must cheat to attain their goals. Keeping in mind this is a Uniparty problem, all headed in the same direction, one a little faster than the other.
I’m Republican since Reagan, Carter cured me. We’ve donated, defended and voted through “W”. Though instinctively my wife and I voted Perot in 1992 as we owned a small manufacturing plant that was vaporized by NAFTA “that giant sucking sound”.
But, we rolled back into the left/right matrix, anything’s better than a democrat. We were excoriated by Rush Limbaugh (I miss him M-F 12-3 he was a great man “Hand grenade with a bad haircut” ) …but wrong about this. Both Bush’s did great damage to this country.
I began to really break from the Uniparty with the accession of their Barry O’ and Mike, sexual deviants to the highest office in the land. You can imagine the demons chuckling at Georgetown Cocktail Parties of this great fraud perpetrated on the USA and the world.
The point is with rigged elections; we’ve been subjected to all manner of injustices. Time to correct it.
I loudly proclaim, it’s past time to release the hounds President Trump…let’s roll.
MAGA! …with God the only way.
Only We the People can fix this!!! 🇺🇲

Amazon to invest $100M in new Greenwood manufacturing –
by: James Kelly
Posted: Sep 24, 2026 / 10:54 AM EST / Updated: Sep 24, 2026 / 11:03 AM EST
GREENWOOD, Ind. — A global technology company plans to build an advanced manufacturing facility in central Indiana, a move expected to create hundreds of high-salaried positions.
Amazon announced it will invest more than $100 million to build the facility in Greenwood. The project will bring 300 jobs to Johnson County with an average annual salary of nearly $100,000.
The 585,000-square-foot facility at 1175 Collins Road will produce equipment for Amazon’s North American robotics and fulfillment network. Company officials expect operations to happen by 2028.
“We want projects that bring real, long-term value to our community, and 300 skilled jobs with average salaries of nearly $100,000 a year is exactly the kind of opportunity we want to see,” Greenwood Mayor Mark W. Myers said. “Amazon’s investment reflects the kind of high-quality development that strengthens our economy, creates meaningful careers and adds to Greenwood’s future. We are proud that Amazon has chosen Greenwood for this major investment and look forward to welcoming this new advanced manufacturing operation to our city.”

What a sh*t show Gov hairgel is……
Ironically the Hairgel increases Newsome’s IQ above pond scum, and even then that’s being overly optimistic.
This speech is scathing.
And deservedly so.
“Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic delivered a sweeping indictment of Western double standards at the 81st UN General Assembly, telling member states that the same countries now invoking the UN Charter to defend Ukraine’s territorial integrity had bombed Serbia without any UN Security Council mandate in 1999, destroyed the foundations of international law through the unilateral recognition of Kosovo, and were now hypocritically presenting themselves as guardians of the rules-based order they themselves had dismantled.
Vucic thanked the 107 countries that had not recognised Kosovo’s unilaterally declared independence, accusing those that did of having attempted to seize 14 percent of Serbian territory without any basis in international legal documents, and drew a direct parallel between the selective application of self-determination and territorial integrity principles as applied to Serbia versus Ukraine.
The Serbian president also criticised what he called the resurgence of Nazism in neighbouring Croatia, which he accused of glorifying its Nazi past, called out the European Union for failing to implement the 2013 Brussels Agreement on the community of Serb municipalities in Kosovo, and expressed support for US President Donald Trump’s approach as an opportunity for a more just world order.
Vucic said Serbia maintained open ties with the United States, China and Russia simultaneously, proposed gradual Western Balkans integration into the EU single market ahead of full membership, and warned the Global South to carefully read any agreements signed with great powers given Serbia’s own experience.”

This is an insightful comment under the video:
To understand the constant crisis in the Yugoslav/western Balkans, you need to know just one thing: The West’s constant, generations-old imperative is to prevent the spread of Russian influence in the Mediterranean.
Serbs are perceived as allies of the Russians.
That is why the West’s constant strategy is to weaken the Serbs and thwart the creation of a stable prosperous Serb state by creating and strengthening anti-Serb identities: Croats, Bosnian Muslims, Albanians… and inciting them to attack the Serbs.
Forget for a moment the Balkan country borders as they are today and look at the Adriatic western Balkans as a whole.
Today’s borders in the Adriatic western Balkans are mostly imposed by Western powers. (similar to Africa or the Middle East).
Through the actions and influence of the West, borders are created and regional “national” identities are created and supported so that, going from west to east, and from the sea coast to the interior of the Balkan peninsula, the Serb ethnic and geographical space is fragmented and cleared of Serbs piece by piece.
The West has a constant strategic interest in physically and territorially reducing the Serbs as much as possible, and that does not change even when the Serbs are their allies.
All Western alliances with the Serbs proved to be false, and during the breakup of Yugoslavia in the 1990s, the
West supported all those who had been on the German side in the 1940s (Croats, Albanians, Bosnian Muslims) in attacking the Serbs once again.
Until 150-200 years ago Serbs were the majority identity of the population in the territory that consists of today’s Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia, Croatia and northern Albania.
But for centuries the region was ruled by foreign powers, the Ottoman, Hungarian and Austrian Empires.
The Serb population was without sovereignty, and the ruling powers used them and shaped them according to their own interests.
Croats are largely descendants of Serbs who converted to Catholicism under the influence of the Austrian or Hungarian Empires, and over several generations adopted a different identity.
Likewise, Bosnian Muslims are descendants of Serbs who converted to Islam under the
influence of the Ottoman Empire. None of them have stopped speaking Serbian as their mother tongue. The native language of today’s Croats and Bosnian Muslims is Serbian language, they call it “Croatian/Bosnian” because they deny their Serbian roots.
People born in Zagreb, Sarajevo and Belgrade understand each other completely.
It is like if Americans and Australians decided to call their language “American/Australian” and then started claiming that they have nothing to do with the English(language/people/culture), and that the English(people) appropriated their language.
Until 150 years ago, Serbs were the majority population on the Dalmatian/Balkan side of the Adriatic. Religious conversions, assimilations and pogroms were carried out on that population in the interests of the Western powers, and now there are no more Serbs on the Adriatic coast, and that is why Croatia exists and has this geographical shape, and that is why Albania exists (created by Habsburg Empire in (1912-13) – so that Serbs would not have access to the Adriatic either as a people or as a country.
The foreign powers that ruled the Balkans for centuries always deepened these divisions in the originally Serb population and provoked bloody conflicts between divided identities.
So did the NATO powers of the West since the early 1990s.

Secretary Scott Bessent is outstanding! I enjoy listening to him and understand what he’s trying to convey! He keeps it simple!
Bessent: “There are two kinds of Inflation; there is Headline Inflation and then there is Core Inflation”.
He then goes on to say that Core Inflation has gone down.
This is a good interview, worth the time.
He logically and with facts moves from one point to the next. Like President Trump, he has a tremendous grasp of what he wants to accomplish and the inner fortitude to keep working no matter the obstacles.
We are blessed to have him working for us.
“Pfizer knew it. Why was it the main focus of their research?” Question should be why has no one been arrested at Pfizer? Those who knew about this targeting of human reproduction should be prosecuted?
Use of mRNA technology should be banned!
I pray Sec. Kennedy can find the strength to do a complete ban, and pray if he does that we the people will find the strength to stand with him against the onslaught that will follow.
My lefty son who has joined the Colorado lunatics hates me, but I pray Secretary Kennedy and company find a way to reverse the damage; he wouldn’t listen to me and took three shots.
My only child! 😢
Their wickedness is beyond belief. If it’s any comfort, I’m sure your son was trying to do the right thing. He just believed the wrong “experts.” Maybe as more information comes out, he will return to a relationship with you. Keep praying.
Pfizer is too busy pushing their post exposure pill….6 commercials on one channel, today, alone. And they are way too long.
What, did everyone finally stop taking their Paxlovin? Now they must push yet another poison pill to make people feel worse than they did before they took it?

Major Grocery Chain Faces MAGA Boycott After Getting Caught Discriminating Against American Workers
Kroger is facing calls for a customer boycott after company disclosures and local reporting revealed that the grocery giant is developing a new capability center in India that could absorb work currently handled by American employees. The company has described the center as part of a modernization campaign intended to lower operating costs and improve productivity. Industry analysts say thousands of corporate jobs could eventually be affected, though Kroger hasn’t confirmed that estimate. A company spokesperson called attempts to calculate the number of job losses “premature and irresponsible.”
The Cincinnati-based company first announced its Kroger Global Capability Center during its fourth-quarter earnings call on March 5th. Chief Financial Officer David Kennerley said the center would support Kroger’s efforts to modernize its operations, accelerate decision-making, and generate additional cost savings. He said the company expected “modest benefits” in 2026, followed by more significant financial benefits in 2027 and 2028. Kroger didn’t identify the center’s location or announce an accompanying round of layoffs during the call.

Trump Butler rally shooting victim James Copenhaver is dead at 76
A Pennsylvania man who survived gunshot wounds during President Trump’s Butler campaign rally two years ago has died, sources confirmed.
James ‘Jim’ Copenhaver, 76, died in hospital on Wednesday after surviving the terrifying rally that saw Trump shot in the ear on July 13, 2024.
Copenhaver endured permanent ‘life-altering’ injuries after he was shot twice at the infamous rally; once in his left arm and again in his abdomen.
The native of Moon Township, around 20 minutes from Pittsburgh, was in critical condition at Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh before he was left numb from his knee to his hip.
Joseph Feldman, the family’s attorney, told Fox News at the time that Copenhaver was ‘a tough guy’ after he was able to survive the horrific injuries.
Ken Silva of Headline USA first reported the death, citing sources close to the family of Copenhaver, who wrote the foreword for the journalist’s book, The Trump Assassination Plots: What Investigations Missed and Why it Matters.
Silva said he had few details surrounding Copenhaver’s sudden passing, ‘but it was no secret that Jim was dealing with permanent injuries from Butler – including having bullet fragments still inside of him.’

There is another article over at fox…may he rest in peace….may the family find comfort and love from those around them. I can imagine POTUS will be contacting them in the very near future, one would think.
This is so sad while maddening, at the same time…God Bless the family…

AI in biology is a big a double-edged sword.
CRISPR is a bacterial gene editing technique. The optimistic spin includes forecasts like this…
“Clinicians have also been able to use CRISPR to help treat genetic diseases. For example, it can alter the gene that causes sickle cell disease, making it code for a healthy version of hemoglobin instead of an abnormal one.”
https://nigms.nih.gov/biobeat/2024/10/what-is-crispr
We can also have AI study the HUGE amount of RNA and DNA protein molecule interactions. And then let’s actually hook AI into the lab equipment to synthesize the molecules (the gene editing)…
https://redstate.com/ben-smith/2026/09/24/nthropic-warned-ai-could-kill-us-all-then-claude-found-a-crispr-like-enzyme-system-in-21-hours-n2207324
https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-discovers-novel-enzyme-system
As a software engineer for 45 years, I find the arrogance and exuberance of people in these professions (AI, “virtual biology” and some cancer researchers) to be off the charts. Just the titles of some articles are ridiculous — “Machines of Loving Grace”. Loving!? Grace!? God, these people are full of themselves.
https://darioamodei.com/essay/machines-of-loving-grace
I compare this to a software team or a newbie engineer who has just been tasked with finding and correcting a defect (or adding a new feature) in a large and complex code base that has recently been acquired due to a corporate acquisition or the departure of a key engineer. He thinks he has fixed the defect or added the new functionality. But due to the complexity of the code and his superficial understanding (even though he believes otherwise), he unknowingly causes a bug or crash that more than offsets the recent “improvement”. This happens all the time in software development.
Now consider the human genome and the complex molecular world of biochemistry. The complexity is many orders of magnitude greater than software development. EVERYONE in this field, no matter how experienced, does not know the full consequences (especially long term) of their tinkering, with or without AI.
Sure, the AI lab work may well synthesize the “product” they want. But it cannot determine the actual long term results on a human population over years or decades, even if the AI attempts to do so virtually. You need a real lab. Unfortunately we ARE the lab. I’m not saying there won’t be successes. But some of us thought mRNA vaccines were risky? Well we ain’t seen nuthin’ yet.
Of course the government will “step in” to regulate and monitor bio AI so it does not get out of hand. Sure.
At this point I don’t trust anyone, be it the government, the pharmaceutical companies, or cancer researchers. Not because of any malicious intent or profit motive (though there is that), but because of the sheer arrogance.
Can you reply again but this time directly respond to what is written in the linked article?
Do you mean your linked article? And if so, is your point that you’re interested in what codesmith thinks about it? If that’s the case, I think codesmith explained his point at the top of his comment when he wrote “AI in biology is a big a double-edged sword.”
The articles begins by touting the benefits of AI along with a short jab at the critics. It then goes on to describe a success scenario where AI selects from existing drugs to produce a cocktail that had success with one man’s specific condition. I’m glad it worked. I have no gripe with that.
But I take issue with the “use AI for everything” hype. As in the follow-up example I provided. When AI can crank out candidate drugs, vaccines, and genetic “cures” faster than human research can produce them, you end up with a lot more clinical trials (and the pressure to get them done before the competition), followed by the sometimes questionable FDA “approval”. And of course the FDA is in bed with nobody. 😉 As I said, we ARE the lab.
You are quite knowledgeable. I was interested in your take about the cheap generics being repurposed with help from AI. As we know from covid, big pharma colluding with gov’t puts a lot of resources at work to push people away from effective generics.
The AI was limited in scope… It appears generics and AI saved that young man’s life which sounds pretty great to me.
I agree with your comment about arrogance. I also think in recent years activism has crept into the workplace in technical fields. An example is Pfizer and the covid vaccine. Here’s one of the latest findings:
https://www.woolstangray.eu/dr-naomi-wolf-the-biggest-shocker-in-the-pfizer-docs-the-vaccine-is-designed-to-target-human-reproduction-not-the-respiratory-system/
So many people at many levels had to be aware of the damage the vaccines would do, but apparently the belief in population control was more important to them.
re: 2024 rally in Butler Pa.
3 died
There may be an additional clue as to how there was as security breach etc.
The shooter aimed to take 1 life,
and killed 2 others.
The shooter also died ( but should have not even been in a roof top position ).
Two people died during the assassination attempt on Donald Trump at the Butler Farm Show in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024:
the shooter, 20-year-old ________, who was killed by a Secret Service sniper,
and 50-year-old rally attendee Corey Comperatore, a retired volunteer firefighter.
Two other attendees, James Copenhaver and David Dutch, were critically injured;
Trump was grazed by one of the flying bullets.
Copenhaver died on September 24, 2026, from complications of his wounds,
bringing the total death toll to three.
p.s.
those people that die, often want to know before … who, what, why, how …. (and be able to say good bye)
And others may think or say, in a moment …
Lord, have mercy…

“On June 3, 2026, a multi-agency operation called “Operation Ghost Story” was executed at Burnstein Von Seelen Precision Casting in Abbeville, SC. ICE detained 48 workers for immigration violations, and the South Carolina State Grand Jury indicted Christopher Douglas Ramey (plant manager) and Sandy Lynn Willis (HR coordinator) on charges of criminal conspiracy, identity fraud to obtain employment, and forgery (more than $10,000).
Four other defendants — “document vendors” who supplied fake driver’s licenses, Social Security cards, and other IDs using stolen identities — were also indicted.”
More arrests expected to come.
If you had one chance to educate a very intelligent educated person who is an avid consumer (and believer) of the NYT and PBS and similar outlets, what would be the one source you would recommend?
I’m thinking maybe Promethean Action. I peruse so many sources (which I know she wouldn’t appreciate) and so many news aggregators that it’s really hard to pin down the one which might be readable to one with her perspective.
Just one.
Intelligent and educated (allowed oneself to be indoctrinated), it’s impossible for a non-Christian…
Cognitive dissonance, the mental discomfort experienced when holding contradictory ideas, which the brain resolves by rejecting new facts to preserve internal consistency.
Neurobiologically, this occurs because core beliefs are tied to self-identity and processed in brain regions like the ventromedial prefrontal cortex.
Challenging these beliefs triggers the amygdala’s threat-detection system, activating a “fight-or-flight” response that prioritizes emotional self-protection over rational analysis. This defensive reaction often manifests as the backfire effect, where contradictory evidence reinforces the original misconception rather than changing it.
Hence that old saying:
”Ignorance is Bliss”
This one.🌳
Most people respond to self serving issues. For example, as we all know many people respond to money issues.
One thing that makes it difficult for some people to connect the dots is the lag time between political actions and for example inflation (Biden actions from which we are still suffering results). Further complicating such an issue is TPTB doing all they can to point people in the wrong direction and, in this example, keeping oil prices unnaturally high until after the election.
Sec. Bessent is a clear speaker who even some lefties respond to. I saw an interview with him and Bret Baier on this site today where he gave economic numbers that show good news. In other recent interviews he insisted as much oil as previously getting through the Hormuz strait is now coming through.
Perhaps you can wait until she complains about how much everything costs and meanwhile prepare a few short clips from Sec. Bessent to show her how perceptions are being manipulated and how things are actually getting better, even though we will need to wait after the election for oil prices to lower.
If she has enough money right now that prices for are not a pain point, I would look for what in her world is and look for sources to address it.
A lot of well educated lefty women just haven’t experienced financial hardships recently because they/their husbands are feeding from the lefty trough. If that’s her and she doesn’t have financial pain points, I think you will have a hard time reaching her.
If that’s her, she likely is caught in the cycle of “the poor, suffering” whatever — fill in the blank with her group of choice. For example, if it’s men in women’s sports, find news sources that give facts about the other side, for example young college women losing out on scholarships and making their rep in sports while they are young.
One way or another you need to address a pain point she can relate to.
One other suggestion is if you do a search to find the highest paid people on substack, you’ll find a woman who writes a column that many lefty women respond to. She’s a professor I think of history and hates our President/MAGA. I heard one lefty woman say that reading the column “keeps her sane.” You could look at that writer to try and figure out the appeal. I’m sorry I don’t remember the columnist’s name. If you find it, you might look for a conservative columnist who presents the other side.
You won’t succeed if you recommend. You might get results if you ask this, “If I could provide a news source that is currently trending toward liberals and that many conservatives have left in the dust, would you at least give them a try for a while?”
That would be FOX news, and for a staunch supporter of NYT, PBS and likely ABCNNBCBS, it would still be a shock when they see barely only 50% conservative news. If she knows that conservatives are walking away from FOX, she might tune in to her first independent starter news.
Deprogramming is very hard. From NYT to Fox, people tend to use a source that best reinforces what they want to believe. The deeper that belief grows, the more our minds are closed to any information that challenges it. The information source soon defines our core value system.
I would suggest starting with – “The Story of Your Enslavement”. It’s mild shock therapy. For someone with a remaining flame of critical thinking to grab hold of, it can start the process..
As a modern day philosopher, Stefan Molyneux was later attacked and cancelled with the full force of US media institutions.

Susan Collins up 3, and polls have historically under-polled her (polls under performing with Republicans and massively over-stating leftists, I’m shocked I tell ya).

So Marxist Collins is “the difference between the devil and the deep blue sea”
In 2024 the citizens of Washington state passed initiative I-2066 to prevent the environmentally-hysterical state government from making natural gas illegal and/or unavailable.
Because the initiative touched on several different existing laws, the state Supreme Court ruled 6-3 this month that the initiative was invalid.
In Washington, both initiatives and regular legislation are apparently supposed to have only one subject. But that does not prevent the legislature from passing laws that affect a large number of existing laws. The legislature apparently gets around the requirement by making the topic of legislation very broad. (like “A law relating to transportation”)
I wonder how long it will be until I have to replace my heating system, clothes dryer, and water heater.
Washington seemed like the greatest place in the world 40 years ago when we moved here. Not so much any more.
I wonder if the case will go to the US Supreme Court.
Now this is interesting.
I did a little more research and discovered that of the three judges who supported the citizens’ initiative, one was a woman and two were men. Of the six who tossed the initiative, all were women.
When reading the state voters’ guide, for judge candidates it’s always hard to figure out who to vote for. Most of their statements don’t tell much. This little bit of research gives me a good clue if i can’t decide any other way.
That’s easy – don’t vote for a vulva
And everyone thought that this movie was dystopian.
“You have hot water here?”
This is really something. Hennepin County MN tried to help business that was harmed by fraud(protesters) and they got more fraudulent applications than real, so they decided to end the program, because “it’s too difficult to determine fraudulent applications from real”. But, they did figure out that there were only 82 out of 300 applications that were real.

Has to be one of the most poorly run counties in the state if not the worst. Taxes thru the roof, mali gangs running amuck.

Senate narrowly votes down resolution calling for end to Iran war
Excerpt:
The measure voted on Thursday, which like the one adopted was a so-called “concurrent resolution,” did not carry the force of law and is never signed by the president, making the vote largely symbolic even if it had passed.

Re the press kerfluffle. Why the judge didn’t look at this case and rule accordingly? Why didn’t the govt lawyers bring this up? Pretty clear wording and conclusion.
Access for the free press is not covered by the first amendment.
The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on this issue.
Pell v. Procunier (1974) and Houchins v. KQED (1978): The Supreme Court established that the First Amendment does not grant the press a special constitutional right of access to government information, locations, or facilities that are not freely available to the general public.”
That’s why this judge will be overruled once it gets to the SCOTUS.
This judge is trying to make it a case of due process, which is completely bogus.
