This SPECIAL BOXING DAY open thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA world.
Say what you want, comment on what other people said, comment on people’s comments. Keep it civil. Treehouse rules, but expect lots of QAnon.
Remember – your greatest gift to President Trump is FIVE WORDS:
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU
I’m working on some big posts – STAY TUNED!!! 😎

Stealing. Reposting on FB. TY!
Hey, thinkthink, thank you for this post. Like TinFoilHat, I stole it this morning to post to our big FB group.
Your post just crossed 500 notifications.
Winner!
I’m not sure of his main premise that the new positions taken recently are based on a “Trump be Trump” change in position. In fact, I’m pretty sure the “new” positions have been timed with strategic precision. But that’s just my take.
I just follow the Q Team along with the Wolf pack…

Check out Melania’s Christmas stocking! I love it!

AWESOME!!!
Heshmat Alavi reports on the Middle East, particularly Iran, for the Daily Caller and a few other outlets. Thomas Wictor and others followed Heshmat as his reporting is very good.
Lately, Heshmat has been reporting on Iran Steel Workers Strike.
Yet now, we are getting reports from Heshmat about activity in Syria.
Here, we have a large thread on the Israeli activities, mopping up Iranian locations, etc.
More evidence that the Middle East has no leadership vacuum.

Wow, praying for Israel
seems like the DS would start a war to defeat Donald Trump. Attack Israel and it sucks us in.

Weird huh? What do you think NYGuy? He was a Obama Iran guy, right?
certainly seems like these people know stuff like they were all clued in together.
Media salivating about the death of a 7yr old girl and 8yr old boy while in the custody of US Border Patrol. They are using the death of these children as a political weapon against the President.
Of course, we never heard anything about the 18 similar deaths, from 2012-2015, during the Obama Admin.
https://www.hrw.org/news/2016/07/07/us-deaths-immigration-detention
this story was on the morning news here and of course, being me, I shouted at the tv that there were similar deaths during the Obama years…the news anchors must have gone deaf because they didn’t respond…so I turned it off.
Thx for the belly laugh 🙂

I enjoyed reading this, so I thought I’d share it here.
“I am a nationalist.
There it is, naked in black and white, and my younger self who believed all the lies about nationalism leading to war is cringing a little in the back of my brain.
But actually, the important thing here is: why wouldn’t I be a nationalist? Or, if you prefer it spun another way: why would someone who has left her place of birth and the family and connections there, who had to acculturate to a new land, and who finally became a citizen of that land not be a nationalist? What sense does that even make?
And what is one a “nationalist” in opposition to? Internationalists? And what is internationalism, precisely?…..”
https://pjmedia.com/trending/nationalist-and-proud/
thanks for posting–it’s quite long, but very entertaining and well written!
Like that, Sylvia, as a fellow nationalist. Just feels good to proclaim it.
I read something once, many years ago, that tried to draw a distinction between a “patriot” and a “nationalist.” It ran: A patriot is someone who loves his country. A nationalist is someone who hates all other countries. At the time, I found that to be a useful distinction.
I’m certainly not that kind of nationalist; and I doubt most people today who call themselves nationalist, especially those around here, mean it that way. (Sure, we have specific gripes about specific countries–that’s not what I mean, I talk about hating other countries simply because they are “other.”)
Today’s “nationalist” is simply a “patriot” by that old distinction, which no one seems to follow any more–except that the Left still finds it useful. Someone calling themselves a nationalist will be treated by the Left AS IF that old distinction were in play, and the nationalist (patriot) will be assumed to be hating everyone else.
Sylvia, People who care about the nebulous “everyone” actually care about no one.
We can care about and pray for everyone. We simply can’t support everyone. First we take care of our own, then send aid and help in other ways where we can. When our own don’t come first, we can’t help anyone.
The Capture of the Hessians at Trenton by John Trumbull (1756 – 1843)
The Battle of Trenton began on this day in 1776 at about 8:00 in the morning. It lasted about an hour. The Continental Army had begun their march at about 2:00 PM on Christmas Day and headed for the place on the Delaware River where it was crossed during the night.
Little known fact:
James Monroe, future President of the U.S., and most well-known for the Monroe Doctrine, was wounded at the Battle of Trenton.
In the Trumbull painting, Lt. James Monroe can be seen on the ground left of center, and being attended to by Dr. Riker (left-click to enlarge).
It was a severe wound (severed artery) that Monroe nearly died from. General Washington cited him for bravery during the battle, afterwards promoting him to Captain.
Nice little history factoid there. Thank you.
I’ve taken, in recent years, to deliberately flying a Betsy Ross (13 stars in the circle) flag overnight Christmas into the next day in commemoration of the march, but I missed it this year as I was away from home most of the day and simply forgot to put it up before I left.
That’s a great way to commemorate the battle. Thanks for sharing.
I spent part of the day refreshing my memory by re-reading parts of “1776” by David McCullough. Also read some online sources on the battle.
There was a movie called The Crossing, too.
Roughly 80% of all voters say U.S. needs secure borders, including 68% of Democrats: Harvard poll – https://t.co/66A4xP3NUk – @washtimes

This poll is from the last Schumer shutdown, January of 2018.
Why would the numbers change dramatically?
Hint = they don’t change.
I thought it was interesting cuz it was from Harvard–you know, Hogg’s new school…
Perfect choice, Pat!!

‘Stunning’: 80% using Obamacare’s Medicaid expansion are ineligible, Louisiana report finds
https://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/4/obamacare-medicaid-expansion-beneficiaries-ineligi/?
Excerpt:
Louisiana’s legislative auditor wanted to know how the state’s expansion of Medicaid under Obamacare was doing, so he picked 100 people who were deemed eligible under the rules.
He found that 82 of them made so much money that they shouldn’t have qualified for the benefits they received.
Auditor Daryl G. Purpera, who issued his findings last month to little fanfare outside of Louisiana, figured if those statistics hold true for the rest of the expanded Medicaid population in his state, then the losses to ineligible beneficiaries could be as high as $85 million.
Not including Illegals with Fake ID’s …. just sayin’ … 😉
Pat Frederick, I could kiss you for this article about Medicaid expansion in Louisiana. I’ve been in a long-running fight with Edward’s Chief of Staff over this issue.
I got him now. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas–but I cannot take the credit…I did copy it from OT…but their name didn’t copy…want me to find out so you can kiss them instead…lol
NE just voted for this travesty – great ammo, Pat – thanks a bunch!!!
disclaimer: it is from OT…
but it’s always nice to be appreciated…LOL…I don’t tweet…can’t research to save my butt, but I can copy and paste with the best of them!
Not going to comment other than there is a whole lot of favoritism and cheating going on.
just 1 state?
Nancy Pelosi doesn’t want to Build A Wall because her & her hubby own a $17M investment in H. J. Heinz’s & Del Monte parent company of StarKist.

It’s funny that the Left loves to complain about evil capitalist corporations wanting cheap labor…
It’s obvious that Christopher Steele has come out from hiding just to throw Clinton under the bus for one reason: to protect/hide the British involvement in the FISA spying scandal against me, Trump and others around him. Remember, the UK called Trump to stop declassification.

They need to watch it. Papa has teeth, and he bites. And I think he’s found he likes to bite.
yep, he’s done his time…and he’s free to say what he wants now.
Hubby got me Spygate (Dan Bongino) for Christmas and I am excited to read it! He also got me a (beginner) Kona guitar (and the guitar for dummies learning package…) I love to learn!!
Besides the new rifle I bought him, I got him several dvds–Air America (CIA, military, heroin), Bird on a Wire (FBI sells out a guy in witness protection), and Broken Arrow (military officer steals 2 nukes)…he quickly picked up on the theme…lol
You will like Spygate, Pat. Good time line at the back that I use to add dates to so as to have a handle on things!
thanks!! After housework is done, (as my mom used to say–a lick and a promise…lol) I’m getting some tea and settling in…with a highlighter…in case I wanna refer back…always the student!
Those movies are modern (sort-of) classics. Here’s a couple of recent topical action flicks that I thought were well done and well acted: American Assassin and Sicario. Both are fairly realistic and scary.
thanks I will check them out!
Loved Bird on a Wire – with Goldie Hawn, if I remember correctly.
yes…we haven’t gone to a movie theater since The Runaway Bride was in theaters–so we tend to buy and watch older movies–I don’t know who half the latest “stars” are anymore…lol
Same here – I have taken my granddaughter to the movies a couple of times but as for me, last one I went to was War Horse, after which I purchased the DVD.
was that about McCain or Hillary? LOL
Neither of them would be worthy of cleaning up the War Horse’s piles!!!!
Father agrees with son:
How very sad:
The First Couple’s Christmas message to the nation on December 25:
PDJT’s half hour Christmas conference call with the military.
SD says: ‘The participants were units from all five branches of the Armed Forces: •Army – Task Force Talon, Anderson Air Force Base, Guam; •Marine Corps – Marine Attack Squadron 223, Sheik Isa Airbase, Bahrain; •Navy – Naval Forces Central Command, Manama, Bahrain; •Air Force – 379th Air Expeditionary Wing, Al Udied Air Base, Qatar; •Coast Guard – Coast Guard District 7, Juneau, Alaska.’
I have no way to know how true or false this is. I found the link on Voat QRC and thought it was interesting:
It could be total baloney, but if so well done baloney.
Sorry, I did not realize the whole thing would post. I thought it was just a link.
No problem. It was good reading it all in one go.
Thanks very much for posting!
YW!
A detailed post from SD on Dec. 25, ‘The FBI and DOJ Were Working to Protect Hillary Clinton a Lot Longer Than Generally Discussed’, might be related to the information you posted. It’s all about the Middle East.
Excerpts:
‘Under the code name “Zero Footprint” Marc Turi originally drew up the plan to coordinate the flow of weapons from the U.S. through the intermediary of Qatar into Libya. Those U.S. weapons ended up in Libya and Syria being used by the enemies of the U.S., specifically al-Qaeda. [All Citations within The Benghazi Brief]
‘In February of 2012 Asst. Secretary of State Andrew Shapiro admitted the State Department had been attempting to relocate and buy-back those weapons since August of 2011. However, on September 11th 2012, while those efforts were still ongoing, the attacks in Benghazi against the U.S. State Department Ambassador Chris Stevens took place, and four Americans were killed.
‘In 2014 the DOJ filed charges against Marc Turi essentially for non registered weapons shipments. Turi’s defense was that the weapons were unregistered because the State Department and the CIA needed covert cover. Elements within the CIA confirmed the basic outline for Turi’s assertion.
‘In 2015 Turi provided Fox News with documents and email exchanges he had with high-level members of Congress as well as military, and State Department employees to back up his claim that the Obama administration authorized in 2011, at the height of the Arab Spring, a covert weapons program that spun out of control.
‘Marc Turi’s legal defense team said if the DOJ was going to prosecute him for the arms shipments, his defense would necessarily reveal how Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was actually the driver of the entire program …’
Turi’s case was to begin on November 8, 2016 (the day of the election). A month previously, a judge had ruled Turi could use the documentation he had to defend himself.
However, charges were dropped.
SD cited the Fox News article about it:
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/10/05/doj-abruptly-drops-case-against-gun-runner-who-threatened-to-reveal-clintons-libya-dealings.html
‘The move may avert a release of potentially explosive documents.
‘“I am glad this horrific five-year ordeal is over and I am pleased to be able to move on with my life,” Turi told Fox News in a statement. “The American public has the right to know that an injustice was committed against an innocent American.”’
Very, very interesting.
Mr. Turi’s last comments ought to turn “American” into the plural.
wowzers!
Wow…. I don’t often read super long posts, but this one… I couldn’t stop and, if true, it really puts together a lot of puzzle pieces. Thank God she didn’t win in 2016!
It makes a lot of sense.
I had to look and see if anyone else had read this before. What this is is a compilation of responses that one anon gave on 4chan one night over two years ago. This particular collection is one of the reasons I do not believe anything that is going on on the surface is worth worrying about too much. Just about everyone in Washington is trying to keep their necks from being stretched, and the “good guys” may not be who we are told they are.
Why this is being emphasized now…helper anons again? Maybe? If the Clinton Foundation is coming back around at the same time as military tribunals, treason charges are probably coming. BUT, I’m wondering if the financial system needs to be changed out first. I think it’s going to be fast, and to an extent out of the blue for a lot of normies. If I had to guess based on Q, Trump tweets, Leo Wanta, etc., the last year may well have been about the military forcibly repatriating American gold which had been deposited overseas. For some reason, maybe to bankrupt those financing the Clintons, that had to be done first.
Just a guess. But it’s really about to get real.
TY for clarifying what this was!
And great insights intl what this might mean!
For whatever reason, the fed looks like it might be the apex tipping point. MOney has to be reset to really deprive the ones behind the curtain of their power.
I think it is filled with larp type stuff. I don’t believe it I have seen this a while ago as well.
Correction to my previous post. The last two sections are new to me, but make complete sense.
I see that now. It was someone who was repeating past posts.
But they all are very plausible, and explanatory of so many things.
If true, it would confirm an inclination I put forth a few weeks ago, that a successful Clinton Foundation Investigation (that has been supposedly been taking place for a couple years), could, ALONE, bring down most of the Deep State.
Thank you.
I know I have read much, if not all, of the material in the first three or four screens. Where? Does anyone know? Did Q post links to this material??
PS: I did not see it on 4-chan; I have never gone to that board and only rarely scan the anon responses to Q posts on 8-chan.
This is old stuff. I saw this a long while ago.
OK. (BTW, we are leaving an hour later than I thought).

so there’s a movie about RBG and apparently a “cult” has or is forming about her? Imo, that means she’s in the line-up for the next MOAB from POTUS. They are trying to elevate her importance–yes she is on SCOTUS, but not worthy of overwhelming the news cycle for long. So they elevate her status so they can displace all attention for yet another week…something big must be incoming.
Yes, the link is below.
How can this woman keep voting when she’s having MAJOR surgery in her MID-80s?? I think the question has been asked here or at CTH. Someone should investigate this travesty of her SPEEDY recoveries!
I read other accounts of people having lung resections and most are out 6 weeks–and these were not 85 year old people either…
One of my siblings had open heart surgery last year, and went back to work three weeks later, but that’s the exception and the result of being an athlete.
wow! that’s amazing, right?
More like foolish. But, that sibling has ZERO sense.
oh, she’s one of the Indispensable Ones…I met many of those–got sick from a few who should have stayed home too.
had my lung surgery 2 or so years ago took months to regain strength back, I am 60 .I still wish for my previous energy. and while I was in the hospital I can tell you I wasnt up to voting or signing anything!!! its all such a crock of crap imo
I’m going to ask because I don’t know. Does she have to be there physically to vote?
I have no idea, tessa.
I, too, would like to know.
I went to barnes n noble looking for kids books several weeks ago. I found several “kids” books about her. Making her cool and fun and a badass. I turned the covers around….. Propaganda
doesn’t she advocate for lowering the consent age to 12? scary there are children’s books about her…are there subliminal messages in them?
She does! Idk didnt read…
You know this Clinton Foundation bullshit reminds historically of the starting point of all this foundational crap. It was 1913, when the Houses of wealth in America got their Federal Reserve Act passed with the aid of their puppet Woodrow Wilson (but this central bank would have no time limits attached to it as far as duration like the previous three central banks). Then, to pay for the f**king interest for the issue of the money the Reserve would print out of nowhere, they passed the 16th Amendment to tax Americans at the federal level the same year (federal income tax!). This revenue stream (robbed from the little people– you and me!) provided the funds to pay the interest on money borrowed from the Federal Reserve by the federal government.
But at the same time, the Houses of wealth were writing federal laws pertaining to these newly formed foundations they created in order to never pay income tax!!!! Of course, they had control of the IRS from the beginning also. The Clintons have taken the foundation scam to the next level. This could get interesting, if all the investigations around the Clinton Foundation are taking place!!!
Prohibition was a major reason for the 16th Am, IIRC, both in terms of loss of revenue, and in terms of the political forces aligned on several related issues.
501(c)(3)s are a major source of communist influence in this country IMO and also a major source of corruption. Abolish the income tax and abolish charitable deductions.
The 16 amendment allowed Prohibition to happen. Remember, that’s Amendment 18. The reason being was that the revenue generated from the sales of spirits were replaced with the income tax.
As for non-profits, it’s not just 501c3s. Those are schools, churches, disease related charities with programs, educational programs, and that sort of thing. A lot are actually pretty worthy in what they do for their constituents. 501c4s are non-profits that are more like PR arms for causes. Foundations have a different designation and live by a different set of rules.
It really is not cut and dried. Trust me. But, the wealthy have been able to influence life with their use of the code, that’s for sure. It’s hidden under the umbrella of philanthropy, and many people out there don’t want to see it.
It is complicated and not straightforward.
I am not concerned about the wealthy people as much as the political organizations like the SPCA, highly anti-American and powerful, while selling a Phony Narrative.
I for one would like to see universities be business enterprises or actual charitable organizations dedicated to education, not destroying America.

Father of seven-year-old girl (Santa, ‘marginal’ conversation) says story has been blown out of all proportion:
From the article:
‘In fact, dad Donald J. Lloyd, 40 (who, as it happens, shares a first name and middle initial with the president), told BuzzFeed News he would have used similar language with his daughter, and that he thinks the remark is being blown out of proportion and unfairly politicized.
‘“I think it’s crazy it became a big deal. It’s Christmastime. I’d love to keep politics out of Christmas,” said Donald. “It didn’t bother me — I like to talk to my kids like adults.”
‘Collman’s mom, Erica, 40, agreed. She added that she found Trump to be extremely generous.
‘“I’m a teacher. I’m OK with the vocabulary,” said Erica, who teaches third-grade students. “He was very kind. I was very impressed with the phone call.”’
To be sure, putting a barrier up on one part of the border will stop the flow of people across the border there–they’ll go somewhere else a little more inconvenient (in this case further from El Paso) but continue to be easy to cross. I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if the smuggling doesn’t continue at the same pace (or at 95+% of the pace) as before, just somewhere else.
To many idiots, that justifies not doing anything anywhere on the border. To me (and I like to think I’m not an idiot, despite trying to prove it so many times during my life), it means to build walls in those other areas, as well. What will be interesting is seeing what happens when ALL of the border is hard to sneak across.
The other argument I hear is about how they will just tunnel. It’s just another thoughtless slave media talking point. The more we advertise the new levels of difficulty, the less people in Central America will be duped into paying the coyotes to try and illegally enter. The only people left attempting to cross a militarized border area can rightly be treated as enemy combatants at that point.
Thankfully I’ve followed Thomas Wictor long enough to know that our friends in Israel already have technology for not only detecting underground works but to also destroy them. I assure any one that brings the subject up that Israel would be more than happy to assist us with these kinds of border security situations.
Granted, however, that our border is a LOT longer than theirs. But the part under the Rio Grande should be impossible to tunnel under without a major civil engineering effort, due to the water table being at the surface of the river there.
In 1984, I went to work for ADT Security in Manhattan, worked on the 93rd floor of WTC#2.
We protected many bank vaults, jewelry stores, etc.
Back then, we had the tech to pick up underground boring (for a bank robbery). Their favorite joke about the gizmo tech was that “We could hear a worm farting at 100′, and didn’t have to smell it”.
When I met my first husband, he went to RIT, worked for KODAK. Back in 1972, they could read license plate numbers from space.
God only knows the tech we have available today. Obviously, if we wanted to solve the problem, we could.
From December 4:
‘Stunning’: 80% using Obamacare’s Medicaid expansion are ineligible, Louisiana report finds
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/4/obamacare-medicaid-expansion-beneficiaries-ineligi/
‘Louisiana’s legislative auditor wanted to know how the state’s expansion of Medicaid under Obamacare was doing, so he picked 100 people who were deemed eligible under the rules.
‘He found that 82 of them made so much money that they shouldn’t have qualified for the benefits they received.

‘“This is huge. It really is,” he told The Washington Times. “As more and more state auditors realize what this is doing to them, it’s going to come to a point where all 50 of them are going to have to declare they can no longer say the state’s books are accurate. I really do believe that day is coming.”
‘Louisiana may be an outlier. A federal inspector general’s report this year found 38 out of a sample of 150 Medicaid beneficiaries in California were potentially ineligible. Taken statewide, that would mean more than 350,000 questionable customers.
‘Another report estimated nearly 50,000 questionable beneficiaries in New York …’

Thank you ChurchMouse for all the news and links you post. What a lot of effort and time that takes!!!!
I depend on you, since I don’t inhabit other sites!!! Again, thank you, CM!!!!
Thank you, friend. I greatly appreciate your letting me know! 🙂
SO – Medicaid Expansion was a CLOWARD-PIVEN attack.
Exactly.
A number of us had suspected this for several years.
Finally, at last, we have some proof.
I hope this goes further, along with illegal immigration and more.
The President is well aware of this. Again, as with Q drops, it’s a matter of getting it out to the public in tiny bites so that they finally get the picture.
Yes, we’re getting there, but there is still a long way to go.
It’s going to be very hard for people to realize that we had enemies of the United States running the country for 16-24 years since 1992, to say nothing of Mega-Dupe Jimmy Carter.
I’d go back even further, wolf.
What about LBJ in 1963 and, even earlier, the guys Eisenhower warned us about early in 1960, those in Congress who were part of the MIC?
Anyone over 60 born in the US has been living this their whole lives.
I was a nipper, along with some here, when the following ad came out.
Who knew the truth of it extended beyond dishwashing detergent? 😉 (A joke, but it so easily lends itself elsewhere … )
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7BvEldVEHU
It’s the ‘Relax, you’re soaking in it’ advert.
I know Judicial Watch just reported HUD is still in a mess, continuing Obama programs that give money to leftist groups like those affiliated with La Raza and others jut as bad. Sounds like a huge mess, would have thought Ben Carson would know better than this.
It’s tough to get rid of, and as a couple of us said about someone else in the administration the other day, you start sacking people left and right, well, you look like a bad guy.
Carson is anything but and doesn’t want to look like one. I cannot blame him.
You’re right, Zoe, HUD is ‘a huge mess’, and, Carson (God bless him) surely knows it.
Let’s continue to pray for him along with all our other MAGA favourites.
The rot has been deep within HUD, probably for at least 50 years.
Something to keep in mind, considering that one must have to have connections to work there. It’s probably a ‘closed shop’, as Britons would say: i.e. ‘members only’.
C, you are right, we do need to pray for him, but if he is going to worry about what people think of him, he probably isn’t up to the job of cleaning out the rot. I agree he is a good man with probably good intentions. Still disappointed.
I don’t know if that is what Dr Carson actually thinks.
I posited that on here the other day, and, IIRC, someone else did, too.
The reality of the situation is that if you entered — cold — into an institution that had a deeply ingrained, long-term, corrupt culture opposed to what it should be (and antithetical to your natural temperament, i.e. nice and clean), would you really go in all guns blazing?
I sure as Hades would not go in aggressively. There must be thousands of HUD employees opposing Dr Carson.
You know, we’re aware of Arkancides and other mysterious deaths, yet, we go on about peaceful Dr Carson going on to wipe out all the corruption that is in HUD?
If we paused for a moment to think about the realities (I’ve been in a much smaller situation, still career limiting), we would reconsider our keyboard battalion rhetoric.
Why did this not come out during the 2016 campaign?! We all knew about the bone spurs. If this is so accurate, Hillary would have used it at the time:
As someone said on CTH in response (very true, this):
‘Eric C. says:
December 26, 2018 at 8:45 am
‘Name one President who served active-duty and was deployed to the front lines during Vietnam, hmmmmmm.
‘Compare that to the WWII generation of Presidents.
‘Thank goodness President Trump should be the last President who we will need to hear about what they did or did not do during Vietnam.
‘It will will be interesting to see the Gulf War generation run for the highest office and how the choice to serve in the armed forces or not affects the campaigns.’
well look at the way the tweeter spelled POTUS’s name…tells you everything you need to know right there…
Indeed!
We knew this was coming (and, I think it’s happened before over the past decade or so):
Is DJT our president or what? How come these people aren’t released to the nearest military base, where they have plenty of tents and open space?
Something is wrong with ICE. Maybe they think it’s still 2016.
They simply do not have adequate housing available. Cloward & Piven in the flesh!
Or, perhaps there are payoffs to just slip these people through on the sly.
There’s a woman, Jessica Vaughn from the Center for Migration Studies (cis.org), a conservative immigration watch organisation, on The Howie Carr Show as I write (Wednesday, December 26). She says there are adult men waiting for their ‘children’ in Texas cities and towns where buses stop. She says she has personally witnessed this herself more than once.
She says that Latin American countries — including illegals from there — essentially think the United States is powerless to stop illegal immigration. The smugglers are riding high thanks to a few American judges, she says.
She said that the Trump administration is making progress, albeit slowly. ICE is having more effect on deporting people back to other countries, such as China and Cuba.
Anybody in their right mind can see how weak minded America has become.
Everyone is going to exploit that weakness.
YES!
Thanks, Tonawanda.
They’ve had it all worked out for years and years. It’s standard operating procedure (SOP) by now.
What happened to they wouldn’t be allowed to cross the border, let alone be released? I thought that’s what those tents were for?
You couldn’t make this up.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg movie at Christmas (sigh):

clever name…if they had to put a current picture of Ruthie on the trailer, would it generate much interest without that intriguing name? LOL
There is a French cable news daily show that had a big bio feature on RBG. I posted a preview on it last week. They called her a great American heroine.
Nice pic!

Untucked shirts, mismatched socks, LOVE IT. Let the kids be kids.
DP—great eyes, didn’t see that at first!!! Lol!
I grew up in Catholic households and schools where such details were attended to before leaving the house.
“Leaving the house”…true!!! But come on, DP, you can let down a little at home, even being Catholic USA, can’t you???!!! 😉
Well, sure you can be a walking unmade bed at home. 😉
Grab a cup of coffee and read this article.
Fascinating story by James Rosen, the Fox reporter targeted and surveilled by the Obama Admin, has written a book.
It’s about how the ‘deep state’ took down Nixon.
Incredible read…….
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/trump-nixon-and-the-deep-state
Great read! Oh, man – what a mess. Now THAT was “chaos”! Trump’s instincts to stay the hell out of Syria are SOUND!!!
Very interesting! Huge red pill.
Thanks DW!!! Good read, good information! I’d be afraid to take a pee in the WH without thinking someone (or something) is watching. Poor President!!!
IKR, it’s ridiculous. Makes me wonder, again, why he renovated.
didn’t he also tweet –after the renovation started–that there was “gold in those walls”…
You’re right, Pat! Good memory!
great find! but way too many parallels to our beloved President Trump!
Exactly. And Stefan Halper shows up right in the middle of it, just like he does every time the Republicans get chumped. Nixon, Reagan, Trump. They used him on one job too many, and it left a needle in the haystack.
Is it my imagination? The government shutdown is a big yawner?
As each day passes, VSG gets to (yet again) talk about border security. And the DemoKKKrats get to talk about what? Federal employees not getting paid?
pardon my ignorance, but does a shutdown stop the swearing in of the newbies in Congress? I can’t seem to find info one way or the other.
Good question!
Government shutdown being a yawner depends on whether or not you are one of the furloughed employees (have a friend whose daughter is idle and needs the money for college) or if you were planning a trip to any facility managed by the National Park Service. The Arch is closed as is the Old Courthouse downtown. Tourism wise, those are big draws.
I meant politically.
Trump is a genius!
Love and the maturity to cultivate it, disappearing along with the relative societal impacts.
Psychologists and other theorists blame many things for the American withdrawal from sex and love: the suffocating influence of the smartphone, emotional immaturity and fragility, and fixation on career to the extent that everything else is an irksome distraction. But all of those culprits, while relevant, seem symptomatic of a more radical problem. Perhaps America is a culture ill equipped for love.
Erich Fromm, a Jewish psychologist and philosopher who moved from Germany to New York to escape Nazi persecution, wrote in his brilliant and forever salient book The Art of Loving that love, like any art—engineering, painting, playing an instrument—requires knowledge and effort.
“Our whole culture,” Fromm explained, “is based on an appetite for buying.” As a result, most people think of love only as an acquisition—how can they be loved—rather than learning how to love another. Falling in love is involuntary, but to protect and preserve a more mature and long-term love, the lover must have the discipline, maturity, and faith to “stand in love.”
Writing in 1956, Fromm eerily predicted the “disintegration of love in Western Culture”: “If love is the capacity of the mature, productive character, it follows that the capacity to love in an individual living in any given culture depends on the influence this culture has on the character of the average person.”
The West, and especially its cultural leader the United States, was becoming an “alienated culture of success” in which “life has no goal except the one to move, no principle except the one of fair exchange, no satisfaction expect the one to consume.”
Fromm’s four factors essential for the cultivation and maintenance of love—discipline, concentration, patience, and supreme concern—suffer assault in such a culture. Love is also “dependent on the relative absence of narcissism,” and therefore “requires the development of humility, objectivity, and reason.”
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/how-america-grew-bored-with-love/?utm_source=samizdat&utm_medium=partner&utm_campaign=free
Hmm. Interesting. I actually think that the celebration of the self, the age of narcissism, and fanning the flames of base human nature by the communications gurus is most of it. We’ve also thrown off systems of religion that taught humility, selflessness, and sacrifice in favor of the far less concrete “I’m spiritual” or “I believe in God, but no one is going to tell me what to do.”
It’s not a simple as American culture is greedy.
I agree, DP, and the god they believe in is a god of theiar own making. Worship of self and of youth and sex without love.
Theres more of that in the article. Worship of self as god, goddess, princess, etc has played into it, along with way too much time on social media instead of being social for kids and young adults
Certainly interesting!

This is the most thorough dive into Fusion GPS and its complex weave of people I have ever seen. It introduces brand new names that don’t get publicity. It connects dots back to Great Britain. And it makes links that are pretty disturbing using facial recognition software. We have a different pic of Nellie Ohr (which I appreciate)
It’s a long and dense article but it puts any previous analysis into Fusion GPS to shame..allocate some time when you read this. Oh and you probably won’t like the conclusions. Still it’s a very informative piece
https://apelbaum.wordpress.com/2018/03/17/the-mechanics-of-deception/
NY54– very interesting to note (and I hope WMoon reads this), that Nellie Ohr worked for Mitre Corp. during the years of Jan. 2000–Dec. 2008. Why??? They had direct involvement in 9-11!
Mitre has provided computer and information technology to the FAA and US Air Force since the late 1950’s. Mitre is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) for the Dept. Of Defense, the FAA, and the IRS. According to Mitre, they are active (imbedded) in the military departments, defense and intelligence agencies, the combatant commands, and elements of both the office of Sec. of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
According to Indira Singh (IT and risk consultant with JP Morgan Chase and DARPA)—“Ptech was with Mitre in the basement of the FAA for two years prior to 9-11. Their specific job is to look at interoperability issues the FAA had with NORAD and the Air Force in the case of an emergency. If anyone was in a position to know that the FAA, that there was a window of opportunity or to insert software or to change anything, it would have been Ptech along with Mitre.” (Sept. 9, 2004). Ptech software “is utilized at the highest levels of almost every government and military and defense organization in this country.” This includes Secret Service, FBI, DoD, House of Representatives, Treasury Dept., IRS, US Navy and AF, and FAA.
My point? They had the capability to confuse optics and responses across the board on 9-11, especially when you also factor in that a military exercise involving a similar scenario as 9-11 called Vigilant Guardian was taking place on the East Coast that very day (9-11)—which is why those responding were asking, “Is this real-world or exercise?”
I did not know that. There are way more people involved in this than we previously knew.
Also to note, several investigators have speculated that Nellie Ohr has a CIA connection, or is CIA!!!
Which would have allowed KGB-CIA to insert actions wherever MITRE was giving access to Soviet specialist Nellie Ohr. Oh, I’m seein’ this now. And debugging 9/11 would have given the military an idea who was involved.
Wolfie—this gets deep!!! And with your exceptionalism, you will get to the bottom of it all!!!
I already have a suspicion that Bruce Ohr was MKed with the same thing that I SUSPECT was used in the CA3 plot AND in the Dan White shooting.of Mayor Moscone and Harvey Milk that propelled Feinstein to the top.
This stuff may or may not be in the 60% they don’t want to release.
Bruce Ohr had this very curious mentality of regret about what he did – a kind of “I don’t know why I was so driven to do what I did”. This is VERY much like the highly suspicious Dan White shooting, which played out almost scriipt-like on commie objectives. White’s defense about diminished capacity and “auto-pilot” was (very important) ALINSKY RIDICULED with the idea of the “Twinkie Defense”. This sounds like clown or commie DISINFO, used to cover up a technique that was slipping into the open.
Bruce Ohr’s testimony also matches other knowledge of a possible MK case which is somewhat off the books, although the white hats may be onto it now. In that case, same thing – a kind of “tunnel vision” was involved.
Clearly based on the history of LSD testing AND the case of Dr. Christine Blasey-Ford – perhaps one of the most obvious CIA MK cases EVER on public display, AND based on Nellie Ohr possibly being CIA, AND her having strong Russian ties, including studying there, I’m thinking that we may be dealing with MK here in the case of Bruce Ohr, to make sure he did the job.
Now – the MK i’m talking about is EXTREMELY feasible. it’s not magic. It’s ENHANCEMENT OF A SUBJECT DESIRE. Easy stuff at a theoretical level. Reinforcement. If the subject has ANY type of OCD tendencies, it should work like a charm – and highly driven types tend to have OCD tendencies.
This stuff would likely be extreme SAP – very tightly controlled knowledge. And I don’t think it’s just ours. I think the Russian connections to both Nikolas Cruz AND the Tree of Life Synagoge shooting (wait till you hear those) lead me to believe that the SOVIETS may have had this stuff after WWII.
The reason I think they got working MK is the same as their missile programs – they got some of the best Germans, and I think Hitler’s MK stuff – obtainable because of human experimentation – could be continued by Stalin because of the same utter disregard for the humanity of subjects.
I think some kind of MK capability that has been extremely well protected changes all the Occam equations about a lot of these incidents, and it is the exact same thing – PUSHING somebody in a direction they “want” to go to the point that they don’t resist. People without strong conscious moral prohibitions and various internal toolkits to defuse things are going to be in trouble.
Very much understand, Wolfie!!! Put it together, big boy! We’ll wait! 😉
“The easiest way to carry out a false-flag attack is by setting up a military exercise that simulates the very attack you want to carry out.” (Captain Eric H. May, former US Army military intelligence officer)
Examples—TWA Flight 800 (1996), 9-11, the bombings of the London Underground and a bus in 2005, the sinking of the Baltic ferry Estonia in 1994–all with security drills or military exercises occurring at the same time involving similar scenarios!
Another example ..didn’t some of the teachers @ Parkland say in tv interviews that they thought the shooting was a planned drill?
Another curious factoid..Boston Marathon…2012…
“We were fully staffed and ready to respond because we ANTICIPATED having more than the typical number of emergency room admissions that day,” Ferrer told The Nation’s Health. “That’s why there weren’t more lives lost.”
Hours earlier, the commission activated its Office of Public Health Preparedness and Medical Reserve Corps in accordance with its regular responsibilities at the marathon, which this year attracted about 27,000 registrants. The day of the bombings, nearly 200 Boston health department personnel were already on site, overseeing medical activities and treating runners with injuries and health problems inside medical tents set up along the marathon route.
The Boston example..not a smoking gun but interesting to plan extra personnel for an event that previously had no catastrophes
Yes, Molly! And I hate to say this for fear of being labeled a kook, but we’re there not some sort of emergency response exercises going on simultaneously to Sandy Hook???
From one kook to another, I recall hearing that but haven’t saved anything to prove it.
Here we goooo…..https://www.prisonplanet.com/sandy-hook-shooting-active-shooter-drill-confirmed-by-law-enforcement-raises-suspicion-of-false-flag-operation.html
Lol, Molly!!! Looks of a feather, hang together! But in this case, it’s the Q-tree!
That was supposed to be “kooks”!!!
hahah PeteC, the lunatic fringe ain’t so crazy after all!
Not kooky to assume that we have an advanced adversary with tools we cannot fit into Occam’s razor. This is straight-up Eckert’s Law.
Based on the host of events needing an explanation, as well as some off-the-books knowledge I have, I believe the toolkit includes advanced MK – possibly far greater than what we have – and they’ve had it for a long time. This may be very special stuff, as in not everybody has it for a reason.
This could explain a hell of a lot.
Here is something for the white hats to chew on. This is related to CA3. The side creating events at that time (decades ago) likely had MK abilities that were quite advanced. These capabilities could commit an individual to a singular course of action with a kind of tunnel vision – basically creation of an OCD loop on some action. I think the adversary depends on this. For some actions, obviously a mental patient makes the best subject – they’re already discredited.
Other non-impaired subjects of value may be retained or committed to the acting side by guilt or process manipulations after the act is achieved. It sounds crazy for a person to say “I couldn’t ‘not do it’ – I had to do it” – the subject then guilts up and behaves predictably in the aftermath, and everything proceeds according to LAWFARE or other scripts.
Subjects may need discreditation or elimination if they get too inquisitive in the aftermath or are not diverted properly into more actions and control.
Hopefully there is some White Hat 5:5 on that.
PS – I think Dan White got close to figuring it out – Alinsky ridicule was used to help cover.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinkie_defense
Read the part on “origin”.
Automatic pilot, diminished capacity, useful riots, gun narrative – but most of all outcome and placements of actors – SCRIPT – all adds up.
Of course we’re working toward this stuff, so it’s surely there.
so basically you are saying the reality we have has been staged
“The easiest way to carry out a false-flag attack is by setting up a military exercise that simulates the very attack you want to carry out.” (Captain Eric H. May, former US Army military intelligence officer)
Two points:
(1) I came to this same conclusion IN GENERAL about deceptions, at a highly theoretical level. The easiest way to carry out a large-scale deceptive operation of any kind is to find its reverse and weapoinize it, sight unseen, to create a backwards or side-exiting logic flow. The “event people” as I like to call them, seem to LOVE this sort of thing.
(2) I think that it may also prove highly possible to PARASITIZE real incidents to then create or enable a similar false flag. Thus, make a missile test fail disastrously, and then use THAT as a ploy to “guilt up” and “protect” the “accidental” perpetrator victim.
I have long suspected this technique was used for TWA 800 – that the goal was for Beelzebubba to subvert key FBI, NTSB, and military officials. Why would this be important? For bigger projects later. This explains why James Kallstrom had to change his tune on TWA 800. Once an agreement to cover up was forced on the military by the CiC, he had to go along with it.
See how that works? CUNNING. A TRICK is played by an adversary to cause an accident, and it works from there. This happened with both CA3 and I believe with the Standard Hotel accident that brought Standard Hotels into Democrat control.
This is how truly evil people work. And the Clintons are truly evil.
Amen, brother!!!!
That makes incomprehensible actions of some more comprehensible, Wolfie.
There is way, way more in there than that (even though that is interesting). The dot connecting is rather fantastic. Pappadopolous would probably love this…make his head nod up and down
That was quite a detailed analysis. The rats do run in packs don’t they. NYGuy you dug deep for that one. thanks for the info.
Hmmm….., President Trump has not tweeted in about 20 hours.
Air Force One spotted over the skies in the UK, now the plane is bound for the Middle East.
Call sign is not Air Force One, thus the President is not on board.
Wonder what’s going on?
https://breaking911.com/air-force-one-aircraft-spotted-over-europe-heading-east/
I saw that being reported OT…really goofy question—I just finished a workout, so my brain is exhausted–lol
any plane the President is on is AF1, correct? so isn’t it just a plane being spotted (if the call sign is not AF1)
what am I missing here? they spotted a plane–anyone could be on it, since the call sign is not AF1…
IRAQ????
