Dear MAGA: Open Topic 20190112

This special RISE OF THE FREE PATRIOTS SATURDAY 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


See the January 1st daily thread for the rules of the road, which are few but important.


Out of a tight place I called on Adonai
Adonai answered me with a spacious place.
Adonai is for me—I will not fear!
What can man do to me?

Psalm 118:5-6

May Freedom Ring!

I love the book of Acts, which ought to be called the Acts of the Holy Spirit.
There is always something new to discover with every reading.
For some reason until last night, the peroration of Stephen’s testimony to the Sanhedrin never fully registered with me. Last night it struck me like a thunder bolt. Stephen was trying to open their eyes to Israel’s chief affliction, the fact that they always resisted the Holy Spirit, and were doing so now.
That same “resistance” leads many astray even today.

churchmouse

Acts is one of my favourite books, too.
Agree fully on Stephen’s testimony.
I’m writing about Acts on my site. Next instalment is Sunday night (afternoon your time).

Tonawanda

I would love discussing Acts. Bookmarked your site.

churchmouse

Thank you.
I’ve been going through the book chapter by chapter.
This is where I left off before Christmas:
https://churchmousec.wordpress.com/2018/12/16/forbidden-bible-verses-acts-2312-15/
I set my comments to expire after a few weeks, which is why they are closed on that post (and other older ones).
You can read the backlog at the link below, searching for Acts. I cover the verses which are *not* in the *three-year* lectionary. Those readings differ by denomination, but are *largely universal* to Catholic and Protestant readings as a whole:

I have to go to sleep! Look forward to the posts!

singularZoe

Thank you, TTT. Congrats on the page, too.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Hahaha! I see what you did…the SAME eagle from my post, on a new background. Nifty artwork!

Curry Worsham

3D effect. The eagle is flying through the Q.

Sylvia Avery

I can’t believe I didn’t see the Q. When you mentioned it I had to go back and look. Spectacular!

GA/FL

Triple T is an artist – the Q is repeating the motif/shapes/colors in the background clouds….ephemeral, mysterious, appearing without explanation, unpredictable, then disappearing without a trace…like Q.
Great job, ThinkThinkThink!!!
I’m infatuated with that Eagle photo…everything about it…the glint in the eye, the translucency of the beak, the air pressure on the forward feathers… the curves and spread of the wing feathers. It reminds me of a Marine in full dress uniform standing at the door of the Oval Office, of a military rifle team, of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown….all spit and polish, all movement and systems completely and minutely controlled.

Pat Frederick

i can totally picture every scene you describe GA/FL..and T3–the picture is gorgeous!

huskerheart

Beautiful Eagle… I love it! Makes my heart happy!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

By all appearances you and I aren’t the only ones.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Well done, T3!!
Let’s see if we can set a record with this!

wheatietoo

I will try…but you guys are doing great, so feel free to continue.
Haaaa.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

AMEN! I want to thank you three for getting this going. BEAUTIFUL Dear MAGA thread tonight – don’t make me cry with Psalms and John – NOT FAIR!!! 😉
I’m working on a big post. Hopefully SOON. Just editing now. It’s a doozy. May get me in trouble, but it must be said. WE’LL SEE….. 😀

Linda

Can hardly wait, Wolf! Hopefully, it will be out before you go on your adventure.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Already up! Plenty of “cooling off time” for the black hats. Plenty of research time for those who agree with me.

Alison

Trouble is your middle name, right Wolfie ???
You got the Super Blood Wolf Moon protecting you this month. Go ahead and let ‘er rip !

Did you see the one wuth big mike? Not sure if i should post it…

wheatietoo

No, I don’t think I’ve seen that one…is it nasty or something?

Gil

Not totally tertible just pointing out the “thats a man. Baby!” bulge. Trying to figure out our etiquette without offending here.

wheatietoo

Ha…I figured you were referring to Moochelle when you said ‘big mike’.
Hey, I would love it but I think Wolfie likes her.
;P

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I may like “her” (gender dubiosity quotes), but this is a free speech site, and I’m trying to figure out which part of a Moochelle meme would cut off somebody’s leg or cause a fire here, and i’m not finding that this meme has killing powers, I think it’s fine! 😉
Just don’t put a target on her. THAT is how they bring this site down. 😎

Gil

Ok. Message received!

Sylvia Avery

Wolfie, you are such a gem!

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

😀 Thanks!!! *blush*

Curry Worsham

I’m already offended. 😉

Marica

Gil–We actually have no etiquette here….Right? Even Deplorable Patriot ( where ya been darlin) reposted and some F bombs were were dropped SHE felt bad that she didnt keep them out– we –for the most part– are DEPLORABLES– so…we dont virtue signal here!! LOL! Holier than though get banned right? JJ!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

And let’s not forget the semi-dirty jokes Nebraska Filly was posting for a while there.

NebraskaFilly

I have more……

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Oh, and “schitt” was an acceptable word for a few days thanks to VSGPDJT’s tweet.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I’ve been on snow watch. We watched the snow yesterday. 8-10 inches across the metro and a number of truckers and so forth got stuck on I-44 just west of Six Flags trying to get up a hill with a biggish grade. Then there was one of the main arteries – US 40/I-64 – in the ‘burbs that has now pretty much been cleared. That’s easier to deal with as there are outer roads that could be cleared off to get vehicles out of the way, but as soon as plowing would happen, an hour later everything was coated again.
Today, we dig out.
With all luck, our very nice next door neighbor got fuel for his talking frog, uh, snow blower, and he might do the neighborly thing and clear off our driveway and walk. He does that, I’m getting him an expensive bottle of spirits. Otherwise, the old coal shovel is going to get a lot of work.

NebraskaFilly

Ha! I just gave my neighbor a big bottle of Rumchata for the last few years’ of driveway snow-clearing he has undertaken on my behalf. Really weird weather here in NE – far warmer than it should be and only twice has my neighbor cleared my driveway this winter. Hoping my dwarf weeping willow tree is still dormant so I can prune it – must be done during the winter or it will stunt it’s growth. Peach trees have to wait until just before the sap starts – that is going to be tricky, with this strange weather.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

We usually give him Jameson black label. Actually, due to circumstances, another person in this household cleared everything off. An early appointment.

Marica

Happy digging DP!! Glad you are safe!!

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Right where we are we’re fine. Our street is treacherous, but the county roads are all passable. This is not our first rodeo. And yesterday was the first time I can remember schools calling off an hour or two ahead of the forecasted arrival. That’s one of the things that propelled me to work at home: bosses who would not let us out of work until the first flakes started to fall. By then, it’s too late.

rayzorbak

Thanks for the concern…..but in my opinion….. We are all ADULTS here…. so let it fly

Sylvia Avery

Well, I vote yes if that means anything. If it is offensive, I’ll scroll by and run get my smelling salts or something, LOL.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

“No sign of rain from where I’m standing”
But I sure as heck have spotted a real drip in that picture.

wheatietoo

Hey, you changed your Avatar…what kind of coin is that?

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

It’s the back of a 1797 ten dollar gold piece.
And Oh By The Way…that denomination was defined in our original coinage law as an “eagle.” (Not to be confused with today’s usage where any of our bullion coins is called an “eagle.”)
10 mills made one cent.
10 cents made one disme (spelling changed to dime later)
10 dismes made one dollar
10 dollars made one eagle.
After the civil war they played with the concept of having ten eagles make one Union. That would have been a BIG coin, had they ever made one–almost ten troy ounces of gold.

Roberta

Ah, there we go…the derivation of the “double Eagle.” Thank you, indeed. And, of course, the St Gaudens double Eagle…still thought by many to be the most beautiful coin ever minted/produced. I would love to have one that is NOT encased in plastic. I have yet to actually FEEL this gorgeous coin.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yep, on all counts.
You might manage it if you insist on buying a circulated coin, and ask for “raw”
The coin dealer will probably look at you like you’re crazy, because they aren’t that much cheaper than many uncirculated “slabbed” pieces, and you’d be taking a fairly large hit in grade to not save much money. But if you explain why he/she might understand.

GA/FL

Steve, is there a gold eagle coin that is illegal to own? Or was that fiction in one of my mystery books?

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Not the eagle, but the double eagle of 1933.
The double eagle ($20) of 1933 was made in quantity at the US mint, but not released before Roosevelt recalled the gold. So technically, one in private hands is considered stolen property. The one that was given to King Farouk is the only exception.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1933_double_eagle
Also some information in the section on the 1933 double eagle in this article:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint-Gaudens_double_eagle
I don’t know of this being true for the $10 eagle. A few of the 1933s were issued and NOT turned in, maybe 40 of them still exist.

GA/FL

I can’t remember where I read about it. Do you know if they have tracked them all down?

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

There was a big stink about it some years ago, someone had ten of them. The government confiscated them.

GA/FL

Unless they were stolen, that seems unAmerican.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Big controversy, but the government insists none of them were actually issued, so someone at the mint must have pinched them. They’ve managed to win in court with that argument.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Let’s see if I can post the image from both sides:comment image

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

And let me try again.comment image

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Beautiful!

GA/FL

Lady Liberty looks upset and indignant. Maybe they should revive that coin.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Aww, correction, almost FIVE troy ounces for that hundred dollar gold piece, not ten.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

That depends very, very heavily on which one.
We stopped making them in the 1930s and many from that era are relatively inexpensive, barely more expensive than the gold that’s in them. But just about any US gold from before 1834 is VERY expensive, five figures and more.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I just looked it up; this coin is probably about an MS-63 grade (on a scale of 1-70) and the book says it’s $125,000 in that grade. And that’s probably a low figure.

TatonkaWoman

And you’re worth every penny, Steve.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I appreciate that–but I’ll never own one unless I kick over a rock and find a pot of money.

itswoot

“I appreciate that–but I’ll never own one unless I kick over a rock and find a pot of money.”
I remember hearing of a person who bought a tin can full of old buttons at an auction. When they got home with it they found that someone had hidden some gold coins among them. They were the small type, of lower denomination.
Also, there is/was a video on YouTube of a guy using a metal detector who found a stash of coins out in an open field. Several of them were gold. Mid-1800’s if I remember rightly.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Before the California gold find in 1848 (boy, I’ll bet Mexico was PISSED, they’d just lost CA to us), our gold coinage was very sparse, a few thousand produced in a year was typical. In the time leading up to 1834, the coins had more gold in them than their face value in terms of silver dollars, so a huge percentage of them got melted; there are some issues where only three or five of them are known to still exist. As a result, flipping through my price guide looking at half eagles, there are only a handful of them priced at less than $20K in beat-up but still technically uncirculated (not worn, but lots of scratches and dings) condition (generally not considered desirable).
Example, the 1822 $5 gold, 17,000 of them were made, but only three are known to still exist and the last one sold went for five million dollars, and it was lightly circulated.
So if I kicked over a rock and found a bucket—I’d REALLY not expect it to contain gold that old. Certainly not here in Colorado, where that bucket would have been buried no earlier than the 1850s and the old gold was really rare even then.
In 1834 we reduced the weight in the gold coinage, the melting down stopped, and they become more common but still tend to be in high four or low five figures, uncirculated. In Extra Fine condition, however, an 1835-1838 can be had for about a thousand bucks. A lot depends on how fussy you are about condition!

Sylvia Avery

Nicely done!

Weatietoo, now that was some deep research to come up with that many. Not sure I can sleep now … laughing too hard!🤣

Linda

Ha ha ha! If he’s not totally humiliated by now, he’s a much bigger egotist than I thought.

Plain Jane

Oh my goodness, these are funny. The man has no shame…he has been getting a new one torn by Sanders continuously but keeps coming back for more. And MORE, and MORE, of his own doing. He deserves everything he’s getting now.

Alison

OMG I am howling!!!
Acosta is well and truly BROKEN. President Trump didn’t even have to break him. He self-broke 😂

Marica

He self-broke!!!! Alison!! Awesome!!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Talk about stepping in one’s own freshly-dropped steaming pile, Acosta did it.
Or alternatively he jumped up and down on his own crank while wearing golf cleats.
He has got to be feeling like the biggest dufus in the universe; which would be the only time he was honest with himself.

Harry Lime

Eh…I’m betting that he still doesn’t realize what he did…

Plain Jane

Here’s hoping he doubles down on his stupidity.

Plain Jane

“Or alternatively he jumped up and down on his own crank while wearing golf cleats.”
Steve that was pure poetry. ROTFLMAO. Never heard that one before.

Sylvia Avery

Wheatie, I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed those. I love seeing Jim Acosta mocked. What an utter fool. I know it is mean, but I am taking such delight in him being made to look like an idiot. And laughter was just what I needed!

wheatietoo

It’s not mean…Acosta started it with his stupid video.
He was trying to mock Pres Trump with that!
So it is his own fault that he opened himself up for mockery.

Sylvia Avery

Oh, I agree! I’m enjoying every minute of it, I just feel guilty about it, LOL! I prolly need a shrink.

bflyjesusgrl

Don’t feel guilty Miss Sylvia, it’s Adam and Eve’s fault. It torments Most of us, the battle between spirit and flesh, and will one day disappear. Jesus fixed it, Bless His Holy Name.

I have to be careful how much I agree with this! 😉

Gil

Steve, I want to get either a bunch of kennedy half dollars or sacagawea doll ars for tooth fairy money. Whete can I get them?

wheatietoo

You might be able to get those through your bank, Gil.
Be careful with the online coin-sellers, though…mr. wheatie got burned doing that.

Gil

I have a small credit union, no close branch, and local banks wont allow any cash transactions unless i have accounts there.

wheatietoo

Ah…well you might try asking your CU about it.
They may be able to get them for you.

judyw

Personal relationships with people who work in banks are also a great resource. Often branch managers and loan officers will share their knowledge of people who would be willing to sell and give your contact info to them.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

(reposted where it belongs)
Give a bank a try, they may have rolls of either kind. (Not a credit union, a bank.)
Failing that a coin shop might have them; just ask them if they have circulated ones (they’ll try to sell uncirculated ones at collector prices) somewhere, and there’s a decent chance they’ll sell them to you at or near face value.
Another option for Sacagaweas is vending machines in a post office; they give change in dollar coins, or at least they used to. Buy five dollars worth of stamps from one with a $20 bill.
And Wheatie is right about online sellers. Plus, even an honest one will have to charge extra, if for no other reason than to cover their shipping.

Gil

Ah ok. I will try a bank bank or the post office. Ty you both!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I do the same with half dollars by the way.
They have a long and honorable history, being issued fairly continuously since 1801 (with sporadic earlier isses in the mid 1790s). That’s a lot more than can be said for silver dollars.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Sacagaweas are available as change at St. Louis Metrolink ticket machines. Kennedy half dollars…good luck. Not even the banks carry them anymore. And Eisenhower silver dollars, nope. Ours are in the safety deposit box.

It’s kinda like static electricity…like the way a sock will stick to a shirt coming out of the dryer.
Sometimes a comment just sticks to the left-hand margin.

THIS IS WHY THE GREAT AWAKENING TERRIFIES THEM…SGT Report was contacted by two western medicine MD’s and a Silicon Valley insider over the past week. The Doctors have gone through a painful and vast awakening and wanted to share their stories. Despite WaPo’s best efforts to characterize the alternative media’s research as “fake news” and “hate speech”, the brightest among us are waking up to the TRUTH. The genie is out of the bottle and that fact has the elite, terrified.

I keep seeing that little “drag queen” boy in the news. I don’t know what we can do to wake people up. The studio audiences clapping for him…they should have all walked out on live TV. It is child abuse to allow the boy to be used like that. The likelihood of his dying at a very young age is high.

judyw

I totally agree…child abuse was my first thought that should be dealt with by LE. Does someone have to report it?

TatonkaWoman

Things are at the point where nothing should shock anymore. But that part about Desmond stunned me…esp the appearance on GMA. I am just gobsmacked. We have not watched GMA (or any other morning show) in years. To see that they have sunk to this level of perversion on a national morning show is jaw dropping.
As for the rest of this video, it didn’t hit me quite so hard because I have already seen and heard about most of it. AND I’m still waiting for this evil to be recognized and punished.

tomf

Thanks for posting this clip, Judyw. I scrolled past it a few times prior.
Scary and frightening that this behavior is being pushed forward.
That GMA would promote this is very telling. (shameful?)
Don’t have cable so I don’t get to see this type of ‘entertainment’.

Alison

Ya know another thing that is so awesome about this QTree?
No matter what time of day or night I come here, I don’t have to prepare myself for the trolls & Eeyores!! It got to the point OT where I would only check in late at night because the daytime crappers ruined the thread.
Now I come here anytime day or night, and it’s ALWAYS a pleasant experience, even if the topic is troublesome.
Of course we have serious discussions here with differences of opinion – some might even get a touch heated – but that is most definitely not the same kind of negativity that overwhelmed OT.
I’m approaching A-Marica level giddiness about how much I appreciate every single one of you 😍😍😍

I can’t relate to FLOTUS on that level–the fancy dresses–or any dresses for that matter and the high heeled shoes–totally not my style. But I love the sneakers, the boots (think utility not Michele’s nightmare glitter things), the jeans and shirt look. She rocks that too and THAT makes her even more accessible and relatable to me! She is feminine and beautiful on soooo many levels.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Yeah, I don’t wear jeans. Or pants for that matter. Strictly a skirts, dresses (t-shirt dresses for casual), and leggings and tunics chicks. Scarves, of course. I like being a girly girly. Part of it is rebellion from my youth. Part was to tick off the liberals who I used to work for. The rest, yeah, it’s just me. Have to do flats, though, due to an orthopedic issue.

Owners of Amazon’s Ring home-security systems can see inside and outside their homes remotely — but so can a bunch of tech workers in a location that’s a hotbed of cybercrime, new reports suggest.
E-commerce giant Amazon bought Ring for $853 million last year, and the New York Times’ popular Wirecutter website soon deemed Ring’s video-equipped doorbell a worthy addition to home security.
But in addition to the doorbells, and a variety of outdoor cameras and sensors, Ring also sells indoor cameras that integrate with its home-security system, and Wirecutter has now added a warning to its review: “A recent story in The Intercept alleges that Ring may have allowed its employees inappropriate and potentially unrestricted access to its customers’ video streams or recordings.”
The Intercept, a tech-focused news site, reportedthat despite Ring’s mission to keep homes and their occupants secure, “the company’s treatment of customer video feeds has been anything but.”
The company gave its Ukraine-based R&D team “virtually unfettered access” to “every video created by every Ring camera around the world,” according to The Intercept.
“The Ukraine team was also provided with a corresponding database that linked each specific video file to corresponding specific Ring customers,” the site reported.
Citing unnamed sources, The Intercept reported that the Ukraine team was allowed to watch the video feeds so they could improve the company’s image-recognition software by identifying objects in imagery by tagging them.
“A second source, with direct knowledge of Ring’s video-tagging efforts, said that the video annotation team watches footage not only from the popular outdoor and doorbell camera models, but from household interiors,” The Intercept reported, adding that the process appears to still be in use at the company.
“The source said that Ring employees at times showed each other videos they were annotating and described some of the things they had witnessed, including people kissing, firing guns, and stealing.”

There is a small company (puri.sm) working on a phone that will have a PHYSICAL KILL SWITCH for both the camera and microphone. Basically the microphone is DEAD when that switch is opened.
Furthermore, the software on that phone is open source and does NOT report home.
Shipping in April, and yes, it will probably be a bit buggy at first, but I’ve pre-ordered one and I. CAN’T. WAIT.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

It should (assuming you don’t buy one of the faux plastic ones), but it’s awkward as hell carrying it around instead of just the phone. Besides which all the spyware apps will simply wait until you take the phone out of the box to report back home.
Switch is better, and the apps won’t phone home, on this phone.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

The extra apps aren’t the issue.
MOST if not all of the apps track you.
Android (Google!) recently changed gallery–the app you use to look at your pictures–to refuse to even start unless it has permission to look at your current location and contacts list. Why does it need that? Sure if you want to send a picture to someone, but what if all you want to do is look at them?
I found a different app for that.
Android is spyware, top to bottom.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Well the hope is, that more people will demand phones with these features. The librem 5 phone will be running Linux and that does have a learning curve, but hopefully someone will be willing to invest in making Linux truly easy for people to use.

huskerheart

OMG thanks for the heads up on this! Cannot wait to order and get rid of my iPhone…

wheatietoo

The thing is…any halfway smart criminal could sneak up from the side, out of view, and slap a piece of tape on that doorbell-camera.
Or just hit it with a hammer.
Or just walk up with a mask on and disable the camera.
So the ‘Ring system’ is really not all that secure.

Sylvia Avery

Did you see the illegal alien in California who went up to someone’s yard and, er, relieved himself in their yard and then spent THREE HOURS licking their doorbell? All captured on their Ring (or similar).
Here’s my take. Having a Ring is great. Our local news is full of porch pirates and the like being caught on Ring. Awesome, right? Except…what good does it do to have pictures? I know, people post them online and maybe someday they will get caught…who knows if they’d ever be charged. But to my mind having Ring is like having drones on the border. You have to have the walls and hardened security. The cameras are nice to have, but won’t keep anyone out.

Pat Frederick

OMG…still waking up but reading this post, a totally inappropriate thought rolled thru my head about licking and door knobs instead of door bells…
since it’s California, could the owner of said doorbell sue the illegal for sexually abusing the doorbell? Perhaps the doorbell identifies as female?

Sylvia Avery

Or maybe the homeless guy identifies as a doorbell? After reading about the woman marrying the train station, its a wide open world. Anything goes, apparently.

Segment on Tucker last night..Major cities (Seattle highlighted) are now doing away with, ignoring, decriminalizing, what they call “survival crimes”. Transfer of guilt to homeowner instead of homeless because society made them steal to survive. Rule of law gone. Disgusting BS, civil war brewing.

Wow, Gil. thanks for posting. When Ring first came out, I thought it would be a nice thing to have. But while I was thinking about it, it occurred to me that there would be a video record of me leaving my house and when, every time. Not that I’m engaged in illegal activity, but it kind of creeped me out, you know? So I thought nah, it’s one of those conveniences that just intrudes and so that ended my interest in it.
But after reading that piece, I’m SUPER glad I didn’t get one.
You have a child so you are probably familiar with Elf on A Shelf. Before Christmas I read a kind of creepy piece about the whole purpose of Elf on A Shelf is to help acclimate children to the idea that they are always being watched so as to make them more compliant in the total surveillance state they have in mind for us.

Its a bit wierd. My kiddo does not like that elf on a shelf thing at all.

Impossible Meat.
I enjoy me some Amazing Polly from up North. She has a youtube channel and covers some interesting topics and has a pleasant delivery…she really seems like a good egg.
Yesterday she did a piece on the Impossible Meat Company and their genetically lab-grown burgers…pretty disturbing stuff…all I could think of was Mrs. Lovett’s Meat Pies (for those of you who have seen Sweeney Todd). Of course these fake meat companies are a direct result of the environmenalist/global warming agenda and have all sorts of connections to the usual suspects. Meat is bad, dontcha’ know? Well, Impossible Meats denies that they use stem cells in their fake meat product like other fake meat companies do and I guess that’s fair enough…
…until Amazing Polly Google-Mapped the Impossible Meat facility in Silicon Valley (of course) and there, smack dab in the middle of an industrial park was the fake meat facility…and guess what was directly across the street…in the middle of an industrial park of all places? That’s right…that would be Planned Parenthood. yeah, that Planned Parenthood…the one that peddles in baby parts. Of course this doesn’t prove anything, as Polly points out, but what on Earth is a Planned Parenthood doing in a industrial park…next to a fake meat factory? This is too disturbing to consider…but then again…
I’ll post the two videos below…

I was frankly already feeling queasy about the fake meat, and that was before I got to the part about the Planned Parenthood location….

Harry Lime

Me too. me too.

Cuppa Covfefe

Wow. And typical of the greens, who pretend to be tree-huggers, but have a much darker agenda. Look into the earth-worship cults, for instance… And since they HATE ranchers and herders, what better way to stick it to them than by producing fake meat (at what cost, including human???).
Also typical sili-valley. Many years ago, just after the boat-people invasion, there were TONS of Vietnamese shops and restaurants popping up over the valley. A friend of mine and I were driving along, and I noted that, for some reason, many Vietnamese restaurants were located right next to veterinarians or animal hospitals. He vociferously argued against the possibility or even coincidence.
Not even a couple of minutes later, we turned from El Camino Real onto Stevens Creek Blvd. And there, on the right, was a Vietnamese restaurant. Next to an animal hospital. Half a mile later, same pairing.
Then again, correlation is not causation. But it sure spooked him…

wheatietoo

Eww…fake meat? “Lab grown” meat?
Yuck!
And the proximity of that lab grown meat factory, right next to PP abortion factory…eww!

“Howard Buffett, Warren’s oldest son, has become a crusader at the border, using his organizations and wealth to boost security efforts of local authorities and volunteer groups, according to a recent report.
While his interest in border security may seem odd, a closer look at the 64-year-old billionaire and philanthropist reveals he’s no stranger to the issue. Buffett owns a ranch in Cochise County, Arizona, that sits just 300 yards from the U.S.-Mexico border.
In addition, a report by The Phoenix New Times indicated a close relationship between Buffett and law enforcement, with the former reportedly gifting $30 million to date to the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office and similar groups…”

One version of what our Q-tree might look like as a metaphor?
I came across this photo early last year while wondering what an image of the CTH might look like with Treepers sitting on their particular branch. I never got around to posting it there.
I first tried looking for a photo with people sitting in a tree. Nothing turned up that I thought was workable. I next looked for images of different types of birds in trees, like goldfinches and cedar waxwings, but nothing turned out there either. Some nice group photos on branches, but when a whole tree was shown they looked like small, indistinguishable blobs on it.
Doing a search on eagles, I settled on this one. It was taken in the Noosack River valley in Washington State. There are 55 eagles there.comment image
What sold me on this image was a Q&A the photographer did on the background of the photo. An excerpt:
“(2) What shocked you about what the eagles were doing? What does that many birds sound like? What do you think brought them to the tree?
Having watched eagles often, in decent numbers, the sound is the most remarkable part. Typically, they gather around an area, communicating between each other, in their own family group, and as a whole group. Eventually one will become brave enough to start feeding. This is usually followed by more communicating and then more feeding. They communicate by shrills and screeches, some warbling, normally in a back and forth manner. In the area of this tree, a small branch of the main river flows, and is a prime area for breeding salmon. As the salmon breed and die, they pile up on the shore and in the river. As I watched the eagles for over three hours, it appeared that the location and height of the tree gave the eagles a great view of the area.”

This is just up the Mississippi River from STL. Above and down to the confluence with the Missouri when the Mississippi gets REALLY muddy, bald eagles hang out most of the winter. Today, I’m sure they’re dodging ice floes since we got socked yesterday and last night with over 8 inches of snow, but no doubt the eagles will be there. The feeding is good. When I was working in non-profit and we had fairs of sorts, there was a rescue operation that used to bring the ones that were being rehabbed. Talk about big birds.

Trumpeter Swans are another bird that was nearly extinct by about 1920. However, they have managed to bring them back and they have come back strong, like the bald eagles. They have about a 12 foot wingspan, and they mate for life. They are spectacularly beautiful birds.

It’s bad. And sad.

itswoot

I remember a story I read in “Outdoor Life” back in the 1960’s that was about the Trumpeters. I think it was called, “The Man Who Fed the Trumpeters”.
It was a story set in rural British Columbia around the 1930’s, and on an inland lake. He was part of the effort to bring them back from extinction. But I remember the story also being as much about his life on the homestead in trying to scratch out a living, and his encounters with wild animals.
One of the few stories I can remember from years of reading “Outdoor Life”.

An informative (though depressing) heads up from J. Christian Adams about new legislation the Dims are going to try to cram down our throats regarding election reform (i.e. changing the laws to make it easier for the Dims to steal elections). Hopefully it won’t get through Congress, and if it does I’m sure PDJT won’t sign it. But it is helpful to know what the Commies are trying to do.
https://pjmedia.com/jchristianadams/h-r-1-democrats-act-to-strip-state-powers-over-elections/
“If you thought the midterm elections had problems, wait until you learn about Nancy Pelosi’s plan to terminate state control over American elections.
Democrats in Congress have announced their top legislative priority, and it isn’t health care, immigration, or taxes. Instead, they want to centralize power over elections in Washington, D.C. H.R. 1 is number one on the legislative agenda because it is the number one priority of House Democrats, leftist groups, deep-pocketed dark money, and those who use election process rules to help win elections — or at least to cause chaos.
The bill is a 571-page dreamscape of wild wishes and federal mandates on states. The Constitution decentralizes power over American elections and puts states in charge. H.R. 1 would undo that…”

Pat Frederick

if the Constitution gives the states the power over elections, not sure Congress can just take it back…the states would fight this right up to SCOTUS, wouldn’t they?
this whole power of the states regarding elections is what’s kept us from enacting voter ID, isn’t it?

Sylvia Avery

You’d think so, wouldn’t you? Hopefully a state like Texas would fight it. But it could be tied up in the courts until after 2020.
It is beyond me to comprehend how Congress can pass laws that overstep what seems to be clearly Constitutional territory, and yet they do.
The author of the piece, J. Christian Adams, is interesting to read because he worked in the DOJ in the Civil Rights Division dealing with Elections and Voting. He said after Eric Holder came in, they moved out all the existing attorneys (so why I keep wondering can’t we do that?) and replaced them with the wildest of lefty radicals and were told to stand down on things like enforcing the part of the Motor Voter Act which means the DOJ is supposed to monitor the states to ensure they are cleaning up their voter rolls.
Thank heavens Judicial Watch has been making this a legal challenge since the DOJ isn’t doing squat.

Pat Frederick

I can totally see POTUS waiting to spring on this–if Congress succeeds in taking this power from the states–I can see him then signing an EO making national photo ID a requirement. Because Congress wouldn’t be overseeing the elections–that would be an EXECUTIVE branch function then…

NebraskaFilly

No, sorry – NOTHING good would come of this at all! Bad, bad, bad bill!

Pat Frederick

oh I completely agree! If the state AG’s fight this (if it passes), I can see the DOJ choosing NOT to defend it…would they have to?

NebraskaFilly

That is up to the AG, I think.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

It’s an old trap.
Republicans sign on to something like this because they see an opportunity to use it to do a good thing (clean up lax state election laws, in this case).
They forget that it won’t be long before the other side has the power instead of them and is in a position to abuse it, horribly.

An anti-corruption investigation called Operation Car Wash has been going on in Brazil since 2014, with great success (H/T OT):
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/jun/01/brazil-operation-car-wash-is-this-the-biggest-corruption-scandal-in-history
‘ … At first, the press described it as the biggest corruption scandal in the history of Brazil; then, as other countries and foreign firms were dragged in, the world. The case would go on to discover illegal payments of more than $5bn to company executives and political parties, put billionaires in jail, drag a president into court and cause irreparable damage to the finances and reputations of some of the world’s biggest companies. It would also expose a culture of systemic graft in Brazilian politics, and provoke a backlash from the establishment fierce enough to bring down one government and leave another on the brink of collapse.
‘Launched in March 2014, the operation had initially focused on agents known as doleiros (black market money dealers), who used small businesses, such as petrol stations and car washes, to launder the profits of crime. But police soon realised they were on to something bigger when they discovered that the doleiros were working on behalf of an executive at Petrobras, Paulo Roberto Costa, the director of refining and supply. This link led prosecutors to uncover a vast and extraordinarily intricate web of corruption …’

The Yellow Vests wouldn’t do this.

There would be no benefit to them.
This gives Macron an excuse to crack down hard on the Yellow Vests.

Correct. No yellow vests.
The gas leak seems to be the most probable reason, as the ITV article stated.

Cuppa Covfefe

Wonder if there was a Shisha-bar or a Kebap shop next door?
We had an explosion like that here not too long ago… seems the Mohammedans were not too concerned with the building codes (LOTS of violations)… Could have been a lot worse, but it was during a relatively quiet time, and the biz next door had already closed for the day. Sad to say, it had to close forever…

churchmouse

That bakery — Hubert — looked gorgeous in the before photos. They’d poured a lot of money into it. And a corner location? Sublime.
I feel very bad for the owners — and staff. There really aren’t that many bakeries/patisseries (or butcher shops) in Paris any more.

Cuppa Covfefe

That’s why I think it might have had a “Moslem involvement” in the event, as they tend to go after symbols and psychologically-important events, places, and people, spewing terror everywhere they go. The place I mentioned was a well-known camera store, with a lot of photo processing being done, and basically ruined a person’s life work. At least it didn’t take their life…
There was a mosque built in a city nearby, which didn’t conform to code. For “normies”, the state would have said, “fix it, or we’ll have it torn down”. For the Moslems, they just waited, and waited, and waited…
Eventually the city caved, and let them finish the building with its many violations, which was also a few meters too high (the biggest violation, so to speak). Most Westerners don’t understand Eastern thinking, which often spans generations. We want it here and now; they’re willing to wait, just like water, over the course of years, breaks stone…

churchmouse

This guy on the presidential thread is suspicious. He’s responding to a tweet from Sky News:

Funny how it always ends up as the darknet, the Russians, the hackers, oh my…
Real profis don’t leave tracks. And every gubmint (and probably most big corporations) are hacking each other anyway. Doesn’t make it right, by any means, but it’s done.
GOD help the people of France and Europe and the UK, to get away from the Satanic glovalists, and back to the wonderful INDIVIDUAL COUNTRIES they once were. I used to travel all through Europe on business in the 1980s/1990s, and it was great how each pllace was a little different, not the cookie-cutter “Europa” we have now, which is just a load of bull in my mind (pun-ishment). Back in those days, change agents were at the border; not in company meetings and NGOs (or at least, not as prevalent)…
I’ve heard France is contemplating a law to make protesting illegal, unless authorized/approved by the government… that will bring the Barricades back for sure…

Cuppa Covfefe

That’s the sort of thing the Satanic left does.
Here in Germany, the AfD fellow (our deplorables) that was beaten to within an inch of his life is facing criminal charges/investigations from the state (Bremen) government. Must be a threat to Merde-kel…
The news media here buried his beating pretty quickly… We need our own VSGPDJT, and soon… MGGA… and Gerexit as well (though the last one would probably make the first one happen)…
Macaroon is taking order from Satan Soros and probably getting advice from his Mommy/teacher/wife and their bankster friends. He’s incapable of leading, so he’s just creating diversions, trying to discredit the Yellow Jackets, and by extension, the French People themselves. Sort of like Merde-kel and us, here in Germany…

Holy moly, daughn, that’s quite the revelation.
OT, on the Lisa Page thread, people were saying that the Epoch Times is owned by Falun Gong followers. They didn’t give any substantiating links, though.

NebraskaFilly

“The Epoch Times was started in 2000 by John Tang and a group of Chinese Americans; the founders say they were responding to censorship inside China and a lack of international understanding about the Chinese repression of Falun Gong.[12][13] In May 2000, the paper was first published in the Chinese language in New York, with the web launch in August 2000.[14]
By 2003, The Epoch Times website and group of newspapers had grown into one of the largest Chinese-language news websites and newspaper groups outside China in the past two years, with local editions in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Indonesia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and major Western European countries.[15]
The first English edition launched online in 2003, followed by the New York print edition in 2004.[14]
In 2000, 10 The Epoch Times correspondents were imprisoned in China, but current staff of the Chinese-language edition work in Hong Kong.[16]”

Amazing moment yesterday as POTUS crushed Acosta at the end of the White House roundtable. Cued up to the spot. Just hit play. Just when you thought things could not get better, POTUS served this up.
Rough transcript below:
ACOSTA: “accusations that you’re overhyping….(cant hear)”
TRUMP: “Thank you very much. Thank you. (Looking at Acosta) Good job yesterday. I appreciate your salesmanship.”
ACOSTA: (cant hear)
TRUMP: “I appreciate your salesmanship.”
(Someone at the table says something to Trump)
TRUMP: (to person at table). “I know. That’s because we had a wall.” (Trump shakes head at the pathetic failure that is Acosta; lol)
ACOSTA: “Actually there were portions that didn’t have a wall”
TRUMP: “Some people are dumb.”
(Multiple people at the table begin to laugh at Acosta now)
TRUMP: “Good promotion for us.”

Part of the planned border will have a negative impact on … a butterfly sanctuary:

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Putting this where it belongs, not where it appeared below:
\Actually…this is a big deal. Although, with some foreward planning, the plants of the sanctuary that serve as food can be moved out of the way.
The butterfly population, specifically monarchs, in North America has been devastated – not decimated, almost destroyed – by clear cutting of the milkweed they use for host plants. And monarchs ONLY use milkweed for larvae. A lot of butterfly host plants, actually, are considered weeds: rue, dill, cockscomb, etc. Now that the gardeners are apprised of the situation, though, we can help out. Last year, I lost my dill to hungry black swallowtail caterpillars, so this coming summer, I’m planning a “nursery pot” of all the host plants so that the eggs can be laid, and the larvae have something to eat. A lot of gardeners here are planting butterfly friendly plants that are either hosts or nectar producing. My peppermint, actually, started to bloom and there were so many honey bees on it, I wouldn’t take off the flowers, and then the smaller butterflies came and ate. Will get another of those this year, or will split last year’s plant as it’s outgrowing its space.
This is fixable. However, it may well require volunteer work to make it happen.

churchmouse

Well said, especially from personal experience.

NebraskaFilly

I am also going to plant a milkweed bed this spring – will probably put several around the yard. There is a big push on here in NE for people to do this and we have a lot in the ditches. My friend was walking outside around his house in the country, with a lot of cedar trees and tons of milkweed, and found himself completely surrounded in a cloud of Monarchs. It sounded really neat!

Butterflies can fly over the wall. These people are stupid.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

It’s not the flying over the wall that’s the issue. It’s the plants. They need specific host plants for both egg laying and food. It can be remedied, but with care, not a weed wacker.

Spab

Judy just to be transparent about the post above. The definition of MOOB is a deception. I made it up. My intent was to make you laugh but I realize that you have no idea who I am so you do not have any way of vetting my comment. However it does point out one of the primary ways that propaganda can be effective. I cited an authority (the Urban Dictionary which is a real thing) to support my claim. We are taught as children (if we had any parenting at all) to respect and trust authority. That is why propaganda is so effective. Sadly, we have reached a point in our culture when all the authorities have been mocked, discounted, and smeared. So much that now the best advice available is to verify everything and everyone. We are a faceless community with the advent of the communication revolution. Don’t trust me until and unless you can verify my claims.

Cop Killer still not named. Going on well over 24hrs.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2019/01/22-year-old-california-police-officer-natalie-corona-gunned-down-in-cold-blood/
I’m assuming this was posted before. Update. There is no update. Killer still not named.
Did this start with not naming the three victims of the you tube hq’s shooter Nasim Aghdam? They were never named (likely speakers of Farsi ) and we forgot to ask but they remembered we didn’t ask thus no name for this shooter.
Aghdam might of became an early hero of the internet free speech movement if the victims had been known to be Iranian. Instead she was ridiculed by politicos as being transexual (no real proof of that, quite the contrary) and that’s all anyone heard, thus the victims were forgotten and never named to this very day. Most likely she walked up to a group at a table, spoke Farsi to them and they answered her back in Farsi at which she started to shoot.
Sort of the same thing going on in Davis. Davis likely a sanctuary city in a sanctuary state will not let you use her death as a reason for the border wall and thus will try not to name the killer. Since the father of Ms. Corona has already forgiven the killer, it’s likely they may get away with it.
What we do know is the killer was not from one of the three cars in the accident that she had responded to but came up from behind among the large group to view the accident and may of fired off as many as 40 shots before calmly walking away. Other than it was eh…hem… some white guy. Where did we hear that one before?
(i posted something similar on GWP but funny my phone rang while I was typing and then my page suddenly died.
so I had to type it up off page and then copy and paste to ensure I could get my post in 🙂 ).

It’s not as if ‘Limbaugh’ is an everyday name like ‘Smith’ or ‘Jones’. That said, it’s been immediately recognisable in the US for a few decades now.

Prayers for Rush, David and their families. There could be serious stuff coming down the pike.

The COVFEFE Act should preserve them for prosperity. Introduced by a Dem, but could be used for good historically:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_Over_Various_Feeds_Electronically_for_Engagement_Act
‘The bill would amend the Presidential Records Act to preserve Twitter posts and other social media interactions of the president of the United States, and to require the National Archives to store such items.[1][2]
‘U.S. Representative Mike Quigley, Democrat of Illinois, introduced the legislation in the wake of Donald Trump’s routine use of Twitter, stating “In order to maintain public trust in government, elected officials must answer for what they do and say; this includes 140-character tweets. If the president is going to take to social media to make sudden public policy proclamations, we must ensure that these statements are documented and preserved for future reference.”[1] If enacted, the bill “would bar the prolifically tweeting president from deleting his posts, as he has sometimes done.”[1][2]
‘If the bill were enacted, it would see US law treat US presidents’ personal social media accounts (such as Trump’s “@realDonaldTrump” Twitter account) the same as “official” social media accounts (such as “@POTUS” Twitter account).[2] ‘

Well, this doesn’t bode well…..disappointing, to say the least, IF it is true. They also accuse him of running “right-wing conspiracy” internet sites as well as “racist content” so…..
“The veteran who set up the GoFundMe fundraiser for President Trump’s border wall allegedly pocketed money meant for wounded veterans in the past, according to a new BuzzFeed News investigation.
Brian Kolfage, a triple amputee and Purple Heart recipient, reportedly previously spearheaded a crowdfunding campaign that raised thousands of dollars for an effort to mentor veterans at military hospitals.”
GoFundMe spokesman Bobby Whithorne confirmed to BuzzFeed News that Kolfage in 2015 launched a GoFundMe that raised $16,246 under the premise that the money would go to a veteran mentorship program. Whitorne said the money went directly to Kolfage.
Kolfage in Facebook posts that have been deleted said that he was working with Walter Reed, Brooke Army Medical Center and Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. Representatives for the centers told BuzzFeed News that they don’t have record of Kolfage working with veterans at their facilities.
“We do not have a record of Mr. Kolfage visiting Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in any official capacity after 2012,” Gia Oney, chief of public affairs at Landstuhl, told the online outlet. “We have no record of a donation made in his name to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center.”

Exactly my thought, which was why I said “IF” if is true. Kolfage has come out saying this is propaganda and I read a comment this morning on BB that someone who donated got an e-mail asking if they wanted a refund or wanted to transfer it to the new 501(C) he is setting up. We shall see.

Well, I don’t if it is or isn’t. I know people who say you MUST talk to them directly, but I figure some one must be counting up pros and cons on the voice mails.
The think is, my Senators and Congress Critter are useless Commies so while I dutifully go through the motion of contacting them I know it does no good. Still, again, I do it.
But since I know it is useless I like to widen the net and make life miserable for others in Congress. You know, spread the wealth.
I work from a list and call so many a day and leave messages. Doesn’t take much time. May not do any good, but PDJT asked us to do it. So, I’ll do it.

”I know people who say you MUST talk to them directly, but I figure some one must be counting up pros and cons on the voice mails.’ It is a given that no one will get through directly. Anyone saying otherwise is talking rubbish. (Those who are ‘important’ will have other telephone numbers and email addresses.)
Keep on using that telephone as a shovel, Sylvia. As you say, ‘spread the wealth’. 😉

Sylvia Avery

Heh, heh, definitely! Thwack!
At least it makes me feel like I am doing something constructive in this war, and PDJT asked so I feel like it is important to try to be heard.

Ugh, what a horrible brutal CLEAR meme! So depressing. Very effective, though. I will share it freely.

Some people are trying hard to bring down the Great Republic.
The Great Republic was once a well known term at home and in school for the United States of America.
Sadly, the term has been thrown into the dustbin of history

Thanks, phoenixRising.
The ‘coup’ has been on since Donald Trump won in 2016. Alex Jones started talking about it the day after. Various intel and military insiders have been commenting on his show since then.
Separately, a minister originally from South Africa now residing in the US with his family has been doing the same. The pastor, the Revd Rodney Howard-Browne, has been holding a 24-hour prayer vigil since 2017:

I have tried to leave Chuck and Nancy voice mails. Funny thing. No can do. Voice mail full. But never say die! Persist! And all that other activist rot.
I’m a stubborn gal. If Sylvia’s Mother were still alive, she would tell you so. And I will get my message to Chuck and Nancy.

Word press ate a comment to Wolf today. 1st time here. Also, frequently, after a post or refresh, msg received is site not available. Just fyi. I have not been able to adjust my phone easily to get the format readable. I have to request desktop format otherwise the mobile format, although better for my eyes, squishes replies into unreadable trains of single file letters.
Ill keep looking for a way to fix it.

These mental states can be induced chemically. All it takes is damaging certain neurons. There are actually NATURAL substances that do this.
“Hidden pharmacology” is a real thing. There is some amount of other technology that is used for “pushing” people, but it works best on people who have been brought into something LIKE a naturally depressed, anxious, or psychotic state using anxiogenics, pro-depressants.etc.
The beauty of this approach is that the person may make associations and come close to reasoning it out, but the more they realize, the more they approach a paranoid state – which of course is the perfect cover.
All that needs to be done then is to implant the suggestion of who to attribute the problems to.
[Target Acquired].
If the victim is smart, they get medical help. The same things that work on natural disorders, work on the artificially induced ones. Result? Break out Eckert’s Law. “There is no such thing as artificially induced mental disorders.” An entire CLASS of attacks is hidden.
Well, not always.
The communist Deep State is interested in people who support certain narratives, as well as people who present certain dangers. They are ESPECIALLY interested in gun owners who support useful narratives. They watch them very closely, when they can, as an ABUSE of more legitimate reasons to watch them closely.
These people are willing to KILL large numbers of innocent people. Why would they BLANCH for one second about delivering a neurotoxin to one ENEMY gun owner?
This is WAR, and these fuckers declared it long ago.
I am almost certain that “The Plan” includes LETTING the Deep State indict itself with enough of these sketchy shootings. Ever time they do this, the PATTERN builds. Fake News no longer controls people’s minds. People can SEE the oddities build up into a discernible pattern.
This stuff did NOT used to happen. Most people don’t have a strong enough memory to see what has changed over 50-70 years. But some do. When the picture builds big enough, it builds itself.
Q is right about so much. SO much more than people realize.

Caught up to the broadcast at the end.
After the introduction PDJT is on.

PDJT says the amount he is asking for is much lower than other presidents have asked for.
He outlines the people (we know who they are) who are coming over the border.
As to his time in the WH since December, ‘I am a worker’.
Then, he went on to describe the human traffickers: ‘They put duct tape over their mouths.’
Confirmed that the Senate is 53-47 GOP.
As to Russian collusion as reported in the NYT, he says it is ‘the most insulting thing … Nothing was found’.
He says that ‘no one’ has been tougher on Russia than he has been.
PDJT says the content of his meeting with Putin ‘is open for grabs’.
He then mentioned his convincing Electoral College votes.
He admitted he has a lot of energy, recalled what Plouffe said, but also said that his opponents are ‘dirty players’.
In short, ‘Wait until you see how it all ends up … It’s all a witch hunt.’
He vowed to put down the fake news of the NYT all in good time (paraphrased).
He knows. He knows what’s going on.
He is also confident about 2020.

WikiLeaks blasted Vice President Mike Pence and former UN ambassador Nikki Haley on Friday after they tweeted calls for Burma to release two imprisoned Reuters journalists. While Pence and Haley are clearly in the right here, and the journalists should be freed, the double standard pointed out by WikiLeaks is mind numbing.
“Hard for US govt to advocate for Reuters journalists wrongly convicted for telling the truth when our editor has been arbitrarily detained, in violation of multiple U.N rulings, for reporting about the U.S. govt *killing* two Reuters journalists ”
The Collateral Murder video was one of WikiLeaks’ most stunning revelations in their impressive history. The 2007 video revealed a US Apache helicopter strike in East Baghdad that left multiple civilians, Reuters photojournalist Namir Noor-Eldeen and his camera assistant Saeed Chmagh dead.
The US, prior to the video’s release, told Reuters that they did not know how the men died.

Calling out people’s better behaviors when they don’t match past bad ones just seems extremely misguided. It’s like “why encourage good behavior when we can SCORE NEEDLESS POINTS INSTEAD!!!”
Sheesh!
That said, I am betting these “reporters” were spies.
The “Rohingya plot” is just another globalist / Islamist migration plot. These migration plots are so obvious now. They’re trying to palm off Muslims into Japan now using the excuse that they’re “Burmese”.
LIARS. Don’t trust the globalists. They LIE.
President Wolf Moon would have bombed Brussels into submission by now, and the UN, like I always say, would be shut down and turned into a memorial for Cabal information release. EVERY cabal crime would be on display there. None of this “60% hidden” crap. Every MK Ultra MURDER would have a room of its own, and the one for Vegas would be HUGE. The room I KNOW ABOUT would be very special. The John Brennan Room would have his mug on every wall. The Great Awakening Museum would DWARF all Holocaust museums combined.
Yeah, Comey. Tell us all about FDR today. YOU KNEW.

If you want to cause a Democrat to mentally shut down, then keep responding to everything they say with the question, “Why?”
I know this is something Q taught us from the start, but I actually used this tactic today with hilarious results. They are literally incapable of explaining in their own words why they feel the way they do.

So, IIRC this was called by Treepers here as the likely ultimate financial outcome if liability was assigned to PG&E for CA fires which allows the customers to actually pay through rate increases….
“PG&E had only $430 million of cash on its books in September, precipitating what now appears to be an imminent liquidity crisis as a result of some $30 billion in wildfire legal liabilities so 18 years after becoming one of America’s largest bankruptcies, the writing is on the wall for California’s utility giant after its cash-collateral-call triggering second downgrade to junk. Reports are that PG&E may notify employees as soon as Monday that it’s preparing a potential bankruptcy filing, according to people familiar with the situation.”

Pelosi has completely emasculated Schumer in the shutdown negotiations. Worse still, Pelosi is held hostage by 30+ freshman Congressmen. It is as though Sandy Cortez is running the country, shutting down government, while American citizens die.

Yep but they will be ready to tackle things after their vacay~~~~~~~~~~
BOLD PAC, the political arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, chartered a 737 for members, their families, and chiefs of staff to attend the weekend. The memo said the weather will be a balmy 80 degrees. The dress code is “resort casual.”
A spokesman would not identify the members, but Secrets obtained a list that included several congressional leaders. On the list was Speaker Nancy Pelosi, but an official in her office said that she did not make the trip.
Neither did Assistant Speaker Ben Ray Lujan, a spokeswoman said Saturday.
“This year’s winter retreat promises to be our most widely attended yet with over 220 guests, including 39 Members of Congress and CHC BOLD PAC supporters expected to attend and participate!” said the planning memo.

“Who dis?” “Who dat”—WHO CARES?!
Judi McLeod image
By Judi McLeod —— Bio and Archives January 12, 2019
“Twitter talk, often as not so much online baby prattle, is destined to come ricocheting back on rookie New York rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who fired off a juvenile Twitter response: ‘New party, who dis?’ after 76-year-old Joe Lieberman made it known in a Fox Business Network interview that he feared her brand of high-tax socialism could doom the party’s chances for long-term dominance in Congress.
When you’re 29-going-on18 and your critic is 76 years old, the pickings to go after him are easy.
“‘Who dis?’ is a common response to a text message from an unknown number. Among millennials in the smartphone generation, the phrase has morphed into a snarky tool for rejecting someone by framing their approach as a mistake.” (Daily Mail, Jan.11, 2019)
“Who dis?” Joe Lieberman style is a 76-year-old retired U.S. senator, who says his party will lose voters in the long term if Ocasio-Cortez’s ideas become its bread and butter: ‘I certainly hope she’s not the future and I don’t believe she is’.”
Ocasio-Cortez’s juvenile millennial-styled zinger trades on the arrogant assumption that she is the Democrats’ future and Lieberman only its doddering, old past.
Does she forget that we remember vividly that it was aging lifetime socialist Bernie Sanders who groomed Ocasio-Cortez for her run for public office?
The New York big-talking new rep is proof positive that it’s not only the older generations who suffer from memory loss.
The know it all rookie was signed, sealed and delivered to congress by a man one year older than Lieberman.
But among other things the rookie rep from New York can’t do is add.
No point reminding the social media socialist darling that Lieberman retired in 2013 after serving some 24 long years in the U.S. Senate.
When you can’t add, you can’t count either, so what Lieberman is pointing out about centrist Democrats goes sailing straight over Ocasio-Cortez’s airy head:
“Lieberman said Thursday that she’s too ‘left-left’ to help the Democratic Party be a sustainable political powerhouse. (Daily Mail)
“‘If you look at the majority of new Democrats in the House,’ he said, ‘they tend to be – I say, center-left … and that is because they had to be center-left to win some of those competitive swing districts that they took from Republicans.’”
AOC, a short-form Ocasio-Cortez designated for her own name is a big-talking socialist who wants steep tax hikes and socialized medicine, among other pie-in-the-sky socialist dreams.
Twitter, dancing videos and publicity stunts notwithstanding, AOC is strictly a lot of flash in the pan.
Though it may seem like forever, the day will come after she’s gone when folk will ask upon hearing the name AOC, Who’s Dat?!” ”
