Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Anyone who has ever worked in long-term disaster recovery and response well knows what Day #6 and Day #7 bring to the psyche. As the crisis in Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina is now understood, the rescue and recovery work continue.
.
While rescue workers still attempt to find access points into some of the most devastated towns and communities of Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina, Joe Biden was in Greenville, South Carolina today for a briefing [SEE HERE]. There remains a worrisome absence of overall federal action when overlaid to the scale of the problem.
Day #6 and 7 are generally fraught with anxiety and the sense of being overwhelmed when contrast against the tasks at hand. It is understandable that PTSD would begin to settle in the psyche of those in the hardest hit areas. We have many friends in the region and send our deepest prayers of support and assistance to those in need. You are not alone.
Just arrived in Kyiv for my third visit since Russia’s full-scale invasion.
In awe of the resilience of the Ukrainian people and eager to hear what more we can do to support them in their quest for freedom and independence. 🇺🇦🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/Bxenpy6OUn

Sam does love her some European color revolution stuff. USAID is the State Dept. cover silo for the CIA.
The two words our “allies” never like to hear from official communication within the U.S. Dept of State are, “support” and “challenge.”
As in, “we need to support Zelenskyy a little more, so that we ensure he understands the challenges.”
I have outlined my general opinion about labor unions [HERE]. Now we are going to focus on the realities, politics and economic outcomes from an International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) strike.
I mostly support the strike. I even mostly support ILA President Harold Daggett, a man of notoriously intemperate and sketchy disposition. Daggett grew up in Queens, New York, directly at the same time and place as another wildly attacked industrialist turned titan of politics. It is safe to say, they know each other; but I’ll get to that later.
Let’s turn to the issues that matter. The dockworker strike has the potential to have major ramifications against the U.S. economy. If the docks don’t work, the imports and exports don’t happen. This could be a big mess, a really big mess if it goes on for a long time.
“People never gave a sh!t about us until now, when they finally realize that the chain is being broke now. Cars won’t come in, food won’t come in, clothing won’t come in.”
This union leader makes $900,000 per year. Maybe not the best spokesperson.

U.S. MEDIA – The US port workers launched the strike due to a labor dispute with employers’ group United States Maritime Alliance (USMX), after their six-year contract expired.
For their new contract, ILA wants USMX to increase wages by 77 percent over six years and bar any automation, which they believe threatens workers’ jobs.
During the Vice-Presidential debate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was asked about his repeated false statements where he claims to have been in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square protests in the spring of 1989.
While it was surprising that an ideologically aligned CBS team including Margaret Brennan actually asked Governor Walz about these lies, his response to the direct question was even more surprising. Within his response Tim Walz essentially reveals he is an impulsive liar, prone to making up fictitious statements about events seemingly only to elevate his own sense of value.
Each of us likely knows a person who holds a similar disposition to Tim Walz; there are many impulsive liars in our modern world; however, to see his publicly broadcast attempt at covering up for his history of repeated lies is really something else. WATCH and decide for yourself:
.
Apparently, Barack Obama, Eric Holder and James Clyburn selected the exact perfect match for Kamala Harris when they choose Tim Walz. Remember, former AG Eric Holder vetted all of the potential VP candidates, and as a consequence the long history of make believe that surrounds Walz must be known by those who are currently handling and controlling Kamala Harris and her campaign.
The only thing that makes sense, is that those who control Harris consider the flaws of Walz to be a feature or benefit to them. Both Harris and Walz represent a false front, a Potemkin village manufactured from nothing to present as something very useful. What Walz makes evident in the captured moment above, is that very dark forces are at work in the background. If there was no dangerous intent, he would never have passed muster.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Iran has fired over 200 missiles into Israel in a retaliatory attack after Israeli strikes against Hezbollah and Hamas, including assassinations of top commanders. The ballistic missiles are reported to have been launched from inside Iran.
U.S. and Israeli Iron Dome counter measures were deployed along with a dozen interceptors fired from U.S. warships located in the Mediterranean. However, multiple strikes were reported within Israel. The war against Hamas has escalated significantly.
Israel has vowed to hit back against the direct attack from Iran. In a video statement, Israel Defense Forces Spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said the “attack will have consequences.” He added: “We have plans. We will act at the time and place of our choosing.”
(Via Politico) – Iran launched a ballistic missile attack targeting Israel on Tuesday as tensions between the two long-time foes ratchet up in the Middle East.
The Israel Defense Forces said on Telegram that “missiles were launched from Iran towards the State of Israel” and ordered Israeli civilians to obey air raid sirens and shelter in place. “The IDF is doing and will do everything necessary to protect the civilians of the State of Israel,” the statement said.
