This Merry Warrior Monday 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/KMAG/KAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
Yes, it’s Monday…again.
But it’s okay! We’ll get through it.
Free Speech is practiced here at the Q Tree. But please keep it civil.
Discussion of Q is not only allowed but encouraged. Imagine that! We can talk about Q here and not get banned.
Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.
Remember…your greatest gift to President Trump is FIVE WORDS:

The Times They Are A-Changin’
Come gather ‘round people
Wherever your home,
And admit that our country
Is corrupt to the bone.
And accept it that soon,
From the old to the youth,
We’ll be put on the road
From lies to the truth,
‘Cause the times they are a-changin’.
Come writers and critics
Who spin with your pen,
And write to an agenda
To deceive all good men.
You have a chance now
To write truth and facts.
You’d better change soon
Or you’ll never come back,
‘Cause the times they are a-changin’.
Come senators, congressmen
You must heed the call
To work for the people
And not the cabal.
There’s a battle here now
To do what is right
For our great nation
To remove the blight,
‘Cause the times they are a-changin’.
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land,
Choose Light over darkness
For Truth make your stand.
You sons and you daughters
Make your solemn vow,
For yours is the future,
Choose Life or death now,
‘Cause the times they are a-changin’.
The line it is drawn
With good on this side,
Standing with truth,
And we must now decide
For justice and liberty
And freedom for all,
And listen to hear
The patriot’s clear call,
‘Cause the times they are a-changin’.
And the times are finally changin’ for the Good…instead of for the worst.
Nicely said, Carl.

Carl, It’s long been believed that some great music paired with objectionable-to-crappy lyrics could be redeemed by a great writer, most particularly music that glorifies evil. You are that writer.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to discard the lyrics from the following song and create new ones that redeem it for posterity. The song is
Hell’s Bells by AC/DC

Oh snap! A caption competition to boot? Heck yeah!! 👍😁
1. Bjorn
Language(s) Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic, Faroese, Dutch, German, Finnish
Meaning Bear
Region of origin Germanic
Bjorn (English, Dutch), Björn (Swedish, Icelandic, Dutch, German, and Hungarian), Bjørn (Faroese, Norwegian, and Danish), Beorn (Old English) or, rarely, Bjôrn, Biorn, or Latinized Biornus, Brum (Portuguese), is a Germanic male given name, or less often a surname. The name means “bear” (the animal). In Finnish and Finland Swedish, sometimes also in Swedish, the nickname Nalle (“teddy bear”) refers to Björn.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bjorn
2. Ursa = bear in Latin
3. Chilly Willy 🙄

Fred is a good name for Monday Bear.
Fred…does it have to be a boy? I mean, it’s Monday, meaning “moon day”. Luna works…better for a bear than a little girl, IMO, of course.
What was Magellan’s first name? Ferdinand. Hmmm.

Boy the liberal crazies are out there attacking anything and everything that looks conservative. Common denominator is that most of the people making the worse statements have less than 50 followers, some even less than 10 after 4 to 10 years as a twitter member. Had to step away for a while before I did something I knew would get me suspended.
Do my best to keep these words in my head…My family all the way back to the revolution has made too many sacrifices for our country for any of us to let it go to the hands of the crazy liberals.

The political left is on the verge of a generational ideological destruction and they know it.

UPDATE: Sidney Powell doesn’t believe the recent report that Lisa Page and Andrew McCabe were having an affair:
OANN hasn’t retracted the claim (yet).
And then there’s the whole question of why OANN reported this in the first place. Genuine mistake? A signal? Trying to make some swamp rats squirm? It is weird how this bombshell came out of nowhere.
I am really good with knowing that at least Lisa has SOME standards.
I knew it! Too good to be true.
Did a search but found nothing about it on OANN.com.
Here’s the video. The Page/McCabe thing starts around 1:50.
Here’s the clip where OANN makes the claim.
And they do it with such certainty, too…no ‘may have’ or ‘might have’.
I never believed it, either. Neither marriage broke up. That’s usually a pretty good indicator if your last name isn’t Clinton.
I’m willing to give OANN a mistake now and then.
CNN however, continually lies and fabricates….remember their fake rally and Anderson Cooper kneeling in the water… and how they tried to heroize the kid that stormed the Trump campaign stage in Ohio in 2016? CNN gets no more mulligans.

PDJT approves a mission to take out Bagdooshie a week ago then he announces it’s success…it just so happens….on the day he goes in front of a known and rabid leftist crowd to be boo’d in a broadcast watched by who knows how many tens of millions around the world.

Whether the boos were faked or not…it gives the evidence that DC should NOT be the place for any of the upcoming trials for the coup plotters.
Change of venue!
The booing proved that a fair and impartial jury pool does not exist in DC!
Barr would be well within his rights to push for a change of venue, for all these trials of the Swamp creatures.

Tom Arnold is a rat bastard!
Yeah….not gonna post what he said here. Unreal.
Yep, he is.
Still, it’s strange to read that whole series of tweets, and then see Wayne Dupree say: “This vulgar, racist man should lose his Twitter account over this.”
Followed immediately by:
“Attn: Wayne Dupree is a free speech champion who works tirelessly to bring you news that the mainstream media ignores…”
.
Yes it’s vulgar, crude, possibly rayciss and definitely in poor taste.
But this whole idea of silencing people we disagree with is playing right into the enemy’s hands.
As long as the Left uses a double-standard, then we need to hold them to their own rules (which we can’t, all we can do is flip the “I’m so outraged!” switch), so I understand Wayne’s point, in which case Tom Arnold should be banned, according to Twitter’s current rules and enforcement.
In a normal world, or after the war is over, it would be better to leave it up, and then let everyone destroy him.
The answer to speech we don’t like being better speech, as opposed to banning.
Okay, I read what he said.
The response from Diamond and Silk would have BROKEN records on Pay per View!!!!!!
Would have been better than their response to Megyn Kelly after the first debate!
They need to do a response.
Umm, if that isn’t racist, what is?
If he’s not banned from twitter for this it will be excellent evidence of twitter bias for liberals and against conservatives.

The raid on Baghdadi showed what’s possible with today’s weapons.
There was nothing left of the house and multiple vehicles, but no nearby civilians were harmed.
Did you know that the Geneva Conventions allow for civilian casualties?
The only prohibitions are on disproportionality and on indiscriminate attacks.
You can’t blow up a city to get one man, and you can’t use weapons like artillery on civilian centers.

The Japanese had the worst weapons in World War Two, and they squandered the lives of their men.

Wictor is spot-on here.
I’m struggling to think of a time when he wasn’t spot on and I’ve got nothing.
ALL of Europe’s leaders and intelligence people have showed they are not reliable and trustworthy.
The UK and possibly the EU were also likely involved in the coup against our President.
The UK has gone soft, socialist and Islamonazi as if they had been conquered and occupied.
The Yanks beat them twice in 1776 and 1812, saved them twice WWI and WWII.
The UK and EU are going to have to resolve to save themselves now. Rise up and vote out anyone and anything that does not pertain to your constitutions, that doesn’t protect your citizens’ rights and values, your economies, jobs and needs, and get the rest – the barbarians and conflicting supremacist ideologies out of your country.
And if necessary go full Viking
Except we never go full Viking, i.e., ‘everybody storms the castle together’.
At best, all that ever happens is Long Wolf, while everybody on his own side disowns him, calls the cops on him and convicts him at trial.
Because we’re ‘law abiding’ to a fault.
We’re not like the people who fight to win by whatever means necessary… which means we’re easy. We’re pushovers, easy targets for anyone willing to ignore the law.
We’d rather lose to traitors and cheaters and become slaves, so long as we are able to pat ourselves on the back for playing by the rules. Rules which the subversive enemy has changed to their own advantage, and then they still don’t play by them anyway.
But we do.
I’ll never understand that, and nobody can explain it to me.
edit / correction: I have never been able to understand that (I’d like to), and nobody ever even tries to explain it to me.
Eventually the dam bursts. Then things get really ugly. Think death camps, killing fields. Make people angry enough, cheat them enough,deny them due process enough and they throw the law books out.
Even though it’s already illegal dems had to pass an antilynching law.
When shit gets real it will be our side that needs management. I think this is another reason for the slow reveal.
I’ve got it.
Thanks to your post about “Prisoner Dilemma / Tit for Tat” in the ISIS thread.
It has always been just outside my ability to articulate, resulting in ‘screaming into the void’, and now it’s not, thanks to being able to make application of ‘tit for tat’ game theory.
Relevant excerpt from the link you posted:
………………………………………..
https://web.archive.org/web/20060615011001/http://denbeste.nu/cd_log_entries/2002/02/fog0000000350.shtml
When Tit-for-tat plays against itself, it plays fair for the entire game and maximizes output. When it plays against anyone who tosses in some cheating, it punishes it by cheating back and reduces the other guys unfair winnings.
No-one has ever found a way of defeating it.
Now let’s analyze two different and even more simplistic approaches; we’ll call them “saint” and “sinner”. The saint plays fair every single round, irrespective of what the other guy does. The sinner always cheats.
When a saint plays against another saint, or against tit-for-tat, the result is optimum but more important is that everyone gets the same result. When a sinner plays against another sinner, or against tit-for-tat, everyone cheats and the result is still even, though less than optimal.
But when a sinner plays against a saint, the sinner wins and the saint loses.
Which brings me back to the point of all this: Is there anything I would rule out in war? Nothing I’d care to admit to my enemies, because ruling out anything is a “saint” tactic. The Tit-for-tat tactic is to be prepared to do anything, but not to do so spontaneously. In other words, if the other guy threatens to use poison gas, you make sure you have some of your own and let him know that you’ll retaliate with it. That means that he has nothing to win by using it, and he won’t. (A war is a sequence game and not a single transaction because each day is a new exchange. If you gassed my guys yesterday, I can gas yours today.)
I chose that example carefully because that’s actually what happened in WWII in Europe. After the horror of poison gas in WWI, the world agreed to ban its use in one of the Geneva Conventions, and in fact no-one did use poison gas in Europe in WWII. Not even Hitler, who apparently knew no bounds at all, was willing to. Because he was following international law? Hell no. It was because the Americans and British maintained stocks of poison gas in Europe and were ready to retaliate in kind. (In fact, an American ship carrying 100 tons of mustard gas was sunk by a German air attack in the Italian harbor of Bari in December of 1943.)
And so it is here. No, I cannot promise ahead of time that my nation will not bomb innocents, or use terrorism, or torture, or poison gas, or bio weapons, or nuke, nor in fact can I exclude anything. If I do, then I am adopting a “saint” strategy and leave myself wide open for the use of such tactics against my own side by an opposing sinner. Only by being willing to do those kinds of things myself can I deter their use against me.
I believe that my nation must adopt tit-for-tat instead of using saint tactics, because it is much better. But for that to work, I have to be willing to be as dirty as he is, if he forces me to be.
This is the theoretical basis for such aphorisms as “To get peace, you must prepare for war.” That means that your nation is prepared to use tit-for-tat. The pacifist idea of publicly pledging to never go to war, or to never use a particular tactic in that war, is instead a saint strategy, and it results in disaster.
……………………………………….
.
This is the problem.
Our side, the Conservative side, insists on playing the role of ‘saints’.
The other side, the Left, revels and glorifies in playing the role of ‘sinners’.
According to ‘tit for tat’ Game Theory — which I remind everyone, “No-one has ever found a way of defeating it” — if we play ‘saint’ to the Left’s ‘sinner’, we will always lose, and they will always win.
It’s the only possible outcome.
The only reason we’re not STILL losing right now, is because DJT understands ‘tit for tat’, and he is beating them senseless because he understands it.

THANK YOU Ozzy!
This infuriating situation has been eating at me for YEARS, and I could never explain it in a way that broke through the noise, beyond “we can’t keep doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result”.
This ‘tit for tat’ Game Theory explains the problem almost perfectly.
It explains WHY we can NEVER win, doing it the way we’ve been doing it.
We’ve always known it. Marquess of Queensberry ALWAYS loses to the guy who’s willing to kick you in the nuts.
Now we have a written ‘proof’.
Game Theory: Tit for Tat.
THANK YOU!!! 😁 👍
I agree with you, Scott.
Nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, should be off the table when at war with evil.
Game theory can be dry as dust mathematical theory( like making your eyes and brain bleed). But if you skip that shit and get to the results you’ll have an epiphany.
I posted about it a long time ago saying Potus has been using it for years as well as the art of war. It makes him almost unbeatable. Also a great ally. Think that pa who was kicked for leaking to the press, Madeline someone. The dis she showed to ivanka etc were such as warranted a severe punishment but he didn’t want her prosecuted etc.Doomed spy? Don’t worry, eventually they’ll suss you out but I got your back.
How did WE Americans Defeat the British in the Revolutionary war?
Militia tactics against those idiots marching in rows by some “Rules” of war.
Way to win a War = KILLING enemies and blowing shit up!
“The UK has gone soft, socialist and Islamonazi as if they had been conquered and occupied.”
_______________
But no more so (or less so) than we did.
I’m sure you and I didn’t go soft on socialism or islam!
The only reason we don’t have the islam problem to the same degree as Europe is because we’re further away. Hussein certainly gave it his best shot, and nobody here did SQUAT to stop him.

“The UK and EU are going to have to resolve to save themselves now. Rise up and vote out anyone and anything that does not pertain to your constitutions, that doesn’t protect your citizens’ rights and values, your economies, jobs and needs, and get the rest…”

Are their elections any less rigged than ours have been for the past 30+ years?
When elections are rigged, it’s not possible to vote out the crooks.
For an analogy, think of the old Chicago mob. Lots of the cops are crooked, and the state and local government is DEFINITELY crooked. What chance do the People of Chicago have to vote out the crooks? They’re still trying to find the answer to that question, all these years later.
It is true that, somehow, in 2016, we miraculously overcame the widespread voter fraud of the Left.
We still don’t know how that happened, but we give ourselves credit anyway.
I think we’ll find out, eventually, that we had some non-conventional help to suppress voter fraud, or we wouldn’t have won.
.
I agree that they have to do it, I just don’t know how they can, any more than we could, absent the ‘X’ factor.
This is why corrupt government is so dangerous.
Government has all the power of force (intimidation, arrest, prosecution, incarceration, execution) and surveillance, and money, and manpower at its disposal.
If government is corrupt, if government is using technology and intimidation and propaganda to suppress and manipulate the vote, such that a super-majority would be required to overcome it, and THEN the government engages in massive voter fraud on top of it all, then what chance do the People have?
I have the exact same frustration as you expressed, with all of it.
I just don’t see how ‘voting’ is the answer, if the entire system, including the vote, is rigged.
And it is.
And we know exactly how demoralizing it is to get everyone motivated to vote, and they DO vote, and yet we lose anyway because the vote is rigged, and then we all attack each other for not getting out the vote.
What if we DID win, what if we HAVE BEEN winning, what if we actually WON most of the elections for the last 30+ years — except we didn’t, due to voter fraud at the state and local level, and ‘The Splitter Strategy’ at the presidential level?
.
You’re not suggesting that we give up, are you?
Because I won’t!
NO!!!
Never give up!
Improvise, adapt and overcome.
I’m suggesting that if the system is rigged, if the vote is rigged, then we can’t keep doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result.
Encouraging people to ‘get out and vote!’ — and we do vote — and then beating ourselves up for losing, while ignoring that the entire system is rigged, is stupid and self-defeating.
When something isn’t working, we have to break the pattern, do something DIFFERENT, or we’ll only remain stuck in perpetuity.
Good points all – really good – esp. the last paragraph.
Crooked polls – crooked elections – crooked media – crooked politicians.
Exactly.
The good guys over here,the AfD, are slowly but surely winning, even though the faux-conservative CDU don’t want to form a coalition with them. Actually, they are doing it quickly, as they’ve grown into a major party faster than any other one has.
In Thuringen over the weekend, the AfD came in second, with the left (Die Linke) first, not a surprise considering the history of that land. The gains by those two parties came at the expense of the two (crooked) traditional parties, the CDU and the SPD, as well as the Greens, who have angered everyone, even liberals, with their “ban everything” agenda. Now the tricky bit will be forming a coalition, as whichever one happens, will have to have some elements of the left, and unless they really pull a fast one, the AfD. The FDP is a barely-right-of-middle party that could help out. The SPD have been marginalized, almost to the point of missing the 5% cutoff. The next few days as the backroom deals are made should be interesting, especially as the Ministerpräsident (effectively Governor) of Thuringen is CDU, and actually talking about a coalition with Die Linke, just to shut the AfD out. He’s a real jerk, and risks ruining the CDU in Thuringen. Another faux-conservative along the lines of Merde-Kuh…
May your white hats be blessed, brave and bold! Wish you were here! :8-)
Thanks 🙂 It would be difficult to move back now (house prices, etc.), and we wouldn’t move to Kalifornistan at all. But we’ll visit some time on vacation… between those Garrison pics and the Brave browser’s Golden Gate Bridge pics, I get kind of homesick some times 🙂
I think more and more people are “getting woke” and, from what I’ve read, the younger folks in Thuringen are more conservative than their elders. The 60-and-over group voted for the Die Linke (the left) much more than the younger folks did; understandable because when they were part of the DDR, Die Linke were the SED (the party, as it were)… hmmm. Merde-Kuh probably still is a card-carrying member…
What’s more, even after winning in 2016 against all the skulduggery of entrenched leftist government, we get nonstop gaslighting from the communications office (MSM) of the Demoncrats. This to convince the public that nothing has been won.
Actually, the Yorktown surrender was in 1781, and in 1812-1815, the British forces were spread so thin that they let us go. The big victories for the US were in 1814 and 1815 – and that one was after the treaty was signed.
Yes, we saved them on more than one occasion, and put together a war machine that is necessary, but required constant war to remain profitable for the investors.
That’s where some of us hesitate to exult over all these victories we’ve racked up.
You are right and a lot more accurate. I
There’s at least one country touted as an ally that supposedly sold one of our fighters to China, too. And not just any fighter, but an F-15.
Really, we can’t trust anybody.
Kudos to Brandon Straka for standing up to this mob!
People like Brandon Straka are desperately needed in all of this. He might be gay, and flamboyant in a way many of us cringe, but he’s willing to stand up and say what needs to be said.
Bret Velovich, former intel special ops analyst, wrote a book on the drone war, “Drone Warrior”. In comments this morning, he said, expect a lot more activity in next 48-72 hours.
It has been so long now, I know most of you are probably too young (or too old?) to remember Q, but today is the 2nd anniversary of the first Q drop. 😁

Q? That comes after p doesn’t it?
Heyyyy, I resemble that remark 😀
Now, what was it you were saying???
Yep, Governor Abbott is showing how it should be done…
.
But Gavin Newsom obviously has an agenda…and keeping the homeless on the streets, along with the filthy conditions…is a part of that agenda.
Nice catch.

This looks to be a young eagle…they don’t get their white head-feathers until they are older.
It’s good that this is getting some exposure.
Only the ‘real’ Pope has his ring kissed. And the ‘real’ Pope doesn’t kiss anyone else’s ring.
I think the rumors are true.
Who’s ring is he kissing?
He is kissing the ring of Pope Benedict.
I’m almost wondering if Benedict is under some sort of house arrest…
“Liberation Theology” has no place in the church, or anywhere on earth, for that matter… it’s just socialism by another name…
Wake Up, Wake Up Wake UP!!!!!!
No resting!
It’s Rocktober!
