Welcome to the Friday OPEN THREAD at the QTree! It’s the weekend and time to crack open a beer and put some steaks on the grill! Thank you for the Thursday hand-off TrumpIsMine. Thank you to Wolfie for keeping us all organized, up and running. What would we do without FLEP’s News Roundup to keep up? Thank you, Flep. Hat tip and a hearty thank you to Wheatie, Dep, BakoCarl, Michael, all contributors and the lurkers!
We don’t believe in political correctness at QTree. Free Speech is practiced here. ENJOY IT. Use it or lose it. This board will remain a REFUGE for those who need civility, either some or all of the time. Important Guidelines are outlined here in the January 1st open thread, with an addendum on 20191110. In other words, please keep it SOMEWHAT civil. We have a new board – actually a new SITE – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.
- What a week we’ve had in Trump time.
- It was just last Friday we got the news of “No Charges against McCabe”, which sent us all into a fury.
- We left Daytona on Sunday, before the horrible accident of Ryan Newman (prayers up).
- The President came back to DC to proceed with more swamp draining (Get the feeling something is going on behind the scenes?)
- Coming out of the NH primary, Bloomberg dwarfed Liz Warren/Pete/Biden/and Amy with his money and the Dems are eating each other alive.
- Rich Grennell as Acting DNI!!!!!
- Meanwhile, the President took off for the west coast to meet with Larry Ellison, Bakersfield Water Board, Prisoners graduating, and rallies in AZ, CO, and Vegas.
- Now, the President is headed to India….. a full State visit.
Does the President and the Administration seem a little different to you lately? With ShaMMMpeachment in the review mirror, the President’s approval numbers are up. Heck, the REPUBLICANS approval numbers are soaring. The resistance from the Repub side, which worked against Trump in 2016, has all but evaporated. Now, the Congressmen and Admin are traveling together, campaigning for each other. There will always be sniping (Mitt Romney), but there is definitely a new Espirit de Corps! It’s as though his foot is off the brake, the way the President always intended. Clock is ticking and there are GREAT THINGS yet to be done.
Great things…………… Hmmmm…………….. it’s been a while.
Our President is an impatient man and in these few months, we will could see extraordinary things which used to be commonplace in America. No doubt, Donald Trump is a big thinker, strategic, and “impossible” is his starting point. Funny, we used to ALL think that way as Americans. Can you imagine what would happen in the USA if 1%, or 5%, or 10%, of our population adopted the same mindset? Why can’t we?
Let’s face it, most people don’t have the same kind of far-reaching vision of a man like President Trump. We can’t imagine something until we see it. And when it happens, when we see it, everything changes.
Where does determination come from? What makes a man excel, despite all odds, and stand tall – against a storm of opposition? What is the source for such courage? Faith, grit, perseverance? We all have it, we need to use it, more.
As Americans, we used to never quit. We’re defiant warriors. We used to ALL be that way. Nothing stopped us. When did “giving up” become an option? When did “managed decline” enter the American vocabulary? We voted for Trump because we LIKE the idea of WINNING
We didn’t complain when weather was bad. We didn’t use the weather to control governments, the world, our economy. And we didn’t turn bad weather into a substitute for religion by using bad modeling with questionable data sets in order to get a government grant. When did American start whining? We found a way to dig out, help neighbors, and go back to work. We didn’t have time to fight with each other.
We did great things. As Americans, there was no reason we couldn’t.
And we took that “can-do” attitude from coast to coast, all across America.
Yet today, the refurbishment of the Golden Gate Bridge is being done by a Chinese company. How did we let that happen? WHY would we let it happen? The Americans are the ones who innovate and build!
Sometimes, it took a few of us to come together to solve big problems…. to accomplish GREAT things, but we did it. Do you think this guys would have kicked someone off their team because of political affiliation? Of course not!!
We did our duty. We admire talent, wherever it comes from. After all, it takes ALL Americans to accomplish great things. It makes no sense to exclude people and make the USA weaker.
Because when America wins, we all win. We can save the world from tyrants. We can change the world with innovation. We can travel to the moon and explore the stars. There is no limit. We can do these kinds of things again, and President Donald Trump knows it. Deep down, we know it as well. Way back in our memory, we can remember what it feels like to be proud, walk tall, work hard, and stretch.
It’s why attending a Trump Rally feels so good.
Yet, we cannot be divided. We have to work together as Americans. No room for petty animosity. Do you suppose the media admonished these soldiers? Shamed people to curtail the celebration? Do you suppose teachers removed the American flags so as to …. “not offend anyone”?
“Q” has often said, “they want you divided”.
Who is “they”? Because that is the “they” we need to go after with all our might.
THAT is the “they”, which stands in the way, …….. of Great Things.
We’re headed higher, if we can work together, following the guy who has the vision to Keep America Great.
“Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American People.” Candidate Donald J Trump

Thank you @PBAUniversity for the 2020 Woman of Distinction award. It was wonderful to share the positive impact #BeBest has on communities across the country & inspiring to see a university so dedicated to teaching students the importance of giving back.
Fascinating Open Thread Daughn, all that snow WOW…
Rodney,
I remember snow like that in the finger lakes area of New York. I literally stepped OVER the telephone lines to go play in the field across the street. I had to use cross country skis to get around all winter or I would sink over my head in the snow.
My skis were like this but with a woven red strap not adjustable leather.
I remember those days too Gail. The Finger lake’s were my stomping grounds growing up. Good times for sure.
Wow what a memory Gail, thanks for sharing that.
AWESOME SAUCE!!!
Wolfie!! You took the words right outta my mouth.
Daughn, you rocked it on this one 🥰💖🇺🇸 Bravo!!
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/02/watch-los-angeles-democrat-mayor-teaches-illegal-aliens-how-to-avoid-ice-officers/
I would love to see his smug smile get a lil adjustment from the Trump administration
WHY isn’t that Mayor head for prison for harboring and shielding from detection illegal aliens???
(Note this is why the left HATES the use of the LEGAL TERM illegal alien.)
8 U.S. Code § 1324.Bringing in and harboring certain aliens
I call em like I see them Gail, illegal aliens is the proper term.
Wonderful essay, Daughn!
*applause* 👏👏😀👍
Hear, hear! …And well very said!
And I really like putting the Date at the beginning of the Threat Title, the way you’ve been doing.
Since Wolfie hasn’t chastised you for it…I may start doing it too.
Heheh.
😏😁
Who is this “Chas Tised” person, and is he a DEMOCRAT???!!! 😉
Heheh.
So…you’re okay with the change in title format?
From what I can tell, searches of all kinds are unaffected, and it moves the date closer to the beginning. That can’t really hurt.
I would have to search on the entire title in parens for it to make a difference – very unlikely.
Okaaay.
Now, if you’re not okay with it, I won’t make the change.
You can say so.
I just like the way it works in the sidebar listing, with the Date at the beginning.
That’s all.
If it would throw off searches, like changing the date format to something totally different, I would bitch, but this sounds completely innocuous to me, so OK by me!
Okay. …Cool.
Speaking of sidebar…
I wonder if we could get Fle to shorten his titles?
They take up, like…a paragraph…on the sidebar.
😏
*ducks*
HA! Well, I think a lot of people like them, are used to them, or expect them, so I’ll abstain. BUT bear in mind that they don’t change the number of listed articles, AND they differentiate Flep’s pieces really nicely.
Ah…that’s true.
Oh well.
If you’re searching topics in old posts, it’s a good way to get stuff, too!
Ohhhh crap, I’ve been doing it wrong??????
I wouldn’t call it “wrong”.
Just a change in format…from the way that Wolfie did them.
I’m so sorry
Don’t be!
I like the change. 😀👍
Daughn,
With things starting to move at warp speed, having the date easy to find is a very big plus.
Daughn, I agree with Wheatie about your essay. She took the words right out of my mouth. And I think it’s helpful to have the date at the top.

Diogenes’ site is pretty funny. LOL
Elizabeth Carter posted this at the tail end of yesterday – I think everybody should see it. George Webb has me convinced that they RAILROADED Roger Stone.
https://youtu.be/1gmTpU0U8QQ
Hmm…did Stone’s defense lawyers do a bad job of defending him?
That is a great question. My first thought is that ABJ screwed him somehow, but it could be just like Flynn, where the SWAMP covered all the bases.
Yup.
Well, they should’ve been screaming about that ‘gag order’ all along!
The fact that they didn’t makes me give them the side eye.
And now there’s this…that Webb is talking about.
GREAT point. Although Stone may have made it easy for them with his behavior which drew the gag order.
I cannot rule out that he trapped them into this. He’s been fighting commies a long time. He may have committed totally to taking them down – by giving them an opportunity to frame him that he knew they could not pass up.
The whole persecution of Stone has been so over-the-top.
That before dawn raid at his house, with the CNN crew!
WTF was that?!
Putting him in shackles to parade him in front of the media crowd.
Shackles…not just handcuffs…shackles!
The whole thing has just been outrageous.
They did it to trigger Pres Trump into doing something stupid.
But he didn’t take the bait!
I hope Roger Stone sues the pants off of all those who did this to him!
Yes, I agree – they tried desperately to get Trump to take the bait – over and over and over again.
This is why it was just so outragreous to watch McCabe getting off. I cooled down, but the way it happened was thinking that – OMG – he had to have talked and cooperated. But then discovering that he didn’t make a deal! I though – no WAY! But yes way. However, once I heard that disgraced crook James Baker interceded and called off the investigators, THAT was when I knew it was all over for the Swamp. That CANNOT STAND.
Running a fever can dissolve our patience and make it difficult to be calm & think things through.
You were fighting off a cold when that hit us…and probably feverous.
😏🤗
Yup – this is true!!!
I’m still not convinced the inner circle didn’t agree to be targets to expose the rot and it was just their tough luck. Too variables went exactly the right way for these convictions and string alongs.
Want to thank Elizabeth Carter for posting George Webb and also Wolfie for reposting today. Which reminds me to just point out that the earlier in the day important things like this can be posted, the more will see them. Realize that is not always possible for many reasons.
What’s with the Steve Bannon and Rick Gates setting up Roger Stone (& POTUS) talk?
That part sounds like “overshoot conspiracy” to try to create a POTUS-Bannon rift.
Yes. Agreed. I listened to this while I was making dinner last night. And this popped into my Twitter feed this morning:
https://twitter.com/GeorgWebb/status/1230821889787998209
Halfway through – very interesting comment about the Warren-Bloomie dustup in the debate
WOW. I think so!!!
Petrie gonna petrie. They should not let anyone from that boat leave quarantine before 21 days!!
https://twitter.com/QuakeFury/status/1230702282779455492?s=20
I agree, Butterfly!
Everyone on that cruise ship should remain in quarantine, for the full time!
It seems like they haven’t really nailed down the ‘incubation period’ yet.
Is it 14 days…or 21 days?
Better to err on the side of caution at this point.
21 Days sounds good.
Meanwhile the passengers brought to Omaha arrived in Omaha already suspected of having the virus while still in Japan. They were among 300 Diamond Princess passengers flown on two separate planes into Travis AFB, CA. and Lackland AFB, Tx. where the non infected passengers disembarked under quarantine conditions before the planes then continued on to Omaha with the passengers suspected of infection.
The passengers not sent to Omaha are still undergoing a 14 day quarantine at Travis and Lackland.
The passengers arrived on special 747’s that were stripped of the over head compartments and ceiling to accommodate a large assembled plastic bio containment cell. The cell as you will see in the video below had no oxygen lines going into it so I would assume it had a separate air system or why bother with the containment cell. Any way, the vid might explain better than me.
https://abc13.com/health/14-americans-with-coronavirus-quarantine-transported-to-nebraska-/5938743/
Meanwhile there have been local reports concerning the passengers that were put into quarantine at Lackland, where some of them have been allowed to visit local hospitals for other routine medical treatments which would mean (with out knowing more about how they were allowed to do this) that they’ve been allowed to violate their quarantine.
One thing I’ve noticed is that the base commander most not like this situation as there is a very good hospital on Lackland AFB that he won’t let these passengers in and is instead sending them off base for treatments. However that might just be a money game as normally only authorized military or military sponsored people ever get to us a military facility like a hospital.
…*must not…
Actually it is 24 days!
And that is from the last possible contact with the virus.
FWIW, the Kalita aircraft was a 747 freighter. Overhead bins not part of the freighter configuration. Top area can be configured to carry passengers, containers and OR odd size cargo. Latter the modified 20′ TEU like container. Lower cargo hold all containers normally.
Peanut gallery suggest 25 days. IIRC, 24 days is the outlier for Corona transmission.
Butterfly —
The 14 people in Omaha had to have been taken to the BSL-4 Biocontainment Unit of the Tower Hospital (the Ebola virus / other deadly infectious disease treatment unit there). This unit has only TEN beds. This would necessarily mean that in order to keep ALL 14 persons in the same facility, that Tower would have to convert 4 close-by hospital rooms into BSL-4 Biocontainment Units. ** Perhaps this is the reason behind the “time lag” between when the U.S. government became dissatisfied with how the Japanese government was handling the “onboard ship Quarantine” at the Diamond Princess — and the 747’s arriving to evacuate them plus the other Americans?
Questions now:
WHY were the 14 taken to the Omaha BSL-4 facility instead of to a regular U.S hospital, or to one that has a lower-level isolation unit?
WHY is there an apparent news blackout on these people?
It now appears that OTHER Americans from the Diamond Princess evacuation are starting to test positive for the virus — does this mean that THEY now transfer to a BSL-4 facility, ;like the one at EMORY UNIVERSITY hospital, or the one at the NIH in Maryland?
And they continue to not show up on the US count of infected.
Johns Hopkins now showing 11 infected in Omaha…. with latest update being at 8:33pm.

Great Rally In Colorado. Thank you, will be back soon!
Thank you to our great US Ambassador to Germany, @RichardGrenell, for stepping in to serve as acting DNI. I will be nominating a terrific candidate for the job very soon. Stay tuned!
Just a thought on Grenell before I pop off to sleep. I’m assuming that IG Atkinson works directly for the DNI as the Intelligence Community Inspector General. Maybe Grenell will have him relocate his office to the latrine.
Yes!
Or send him off to Alaska to count paperclips!
Combine the two.
Send him to Alaska to clean latrines.
Thule to count paperclips in latrines.
Yes, but IG’s are not mere accountants. Send him your bent paper clips to straighten out and trust that Grenell will send them with him to Thule at Atkinson’s new office in the latrine, which I hear is an unheated out house around back.
“Will be back soon!”
Good, I might have another shot at photographing Air Force One in flight.
I heard Matt Gaetz went into the Port-a-potty called “The View” yesterday.

https://www.churchmilitant.com/news/article/catholics-can-be-freemasons-claims-pontifical-council-cleric
This one will eventually get trounced…after confusion is sown for at least a generation.
No, Catholics are not to be Freemasons. The smarter ones who try out the lodge realize it and walk away from the degrees and “fraternal organization” and back to the Mother Ship.
Gosh, all this time I’ve been under the impression my Freemason father was an honorable, generous, service-oriented man. He belonged to this “fraternal organization” for his entire adult life and I never saw any signs of satanism…must have been brainwashed.
Me too.
7 generations, grand masons, buried with their apron on.
Do I look like I’m running the world?
Guess they weren’t the smart ones, Daughn.
Yeah, sorry, they’re not going to convince me ever man in our family was a Satan worshipper.
Heck, I was a Rainbow Girl.
My Dad was a Mason and studied to be a Lutheran minister. Mom was Eastern Star. A very good friend was knighted in Scotland within the Masons.
ALL of these people were very much NOT EVIL. It makes me wonder if the Masons have gotten tarred by our common enemies. (Keep the people divided.)
Remember the Freemasons trace back to the organised groups of stonemasons. Because they held the secrets of how to BUILD, they were free from the Aristocracy unlike so many other people. We know the Aristocracy/Banksters have a LONG memory and a major vindictive streak. Think of their wiping out the entire family of the Tzar of Russia for interfering with their planned retaking of the USA after the Civil War.
I take all the info on the Masons with a large grain of salt.
ALSO the Roman Catholic Church aka The Holy Roman Empire ‘ruled’ Europe for a thousand years. They were very much aligned with the Aristocracy so would NOT be happy with the Freemasons who thwarted control by the Aristocracy.
The French Revolution lasted from 1789 until 1799. The Holy Roman Empire, after existing for a thousand years, was dissolved on 6 August 1806, after its defeat by Napoleon at the Battle of Austerlitz. The Napoleonic Wars, involving most of Europe, was from 1803 to 1815. Defeating Napoleon, the European aristocracy managed to hold onto their way of life by the skin of their teeth.
A year later after the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1816 Ludwig von Westphalen was transferred to Trier where he met and befriended Heinrich Marx, the father of Karl Marx. Now why would a well connected nobleman befriend a Jewish businessman/lawyer?
Perhaps because Heinrich Marx, wife’s first cousin married Nathan Rothschild, founder of the British branch of the Rothschild banking dynasty?
Ludwig von Westphalen was the youngest son of Baron Christian Philip Heinrich von Westphalen the de facto “chief of staff” to Duke Ferdinand during the Seven Years’ War (1756 – 1763.) So he was well connected with the aristocracy. (Duke Ferdinand was aligned with Britain against France.)
It’s not so much satanism as it is contrary to theology.
That is always the dilemma. Probably everyone here has someone in their life who is good and decent and also connected to Freemasonry. If you research it, what goes on at the upper levels is not good (to put it mildly). It is thought that those in the lower ranks are not aware of it, though some of the oaths they take are questionable. The motives of all the good people we know are not in question; it is the motives of those pulling the strings that have to be examined.
Like the installed Chief Potentates?
Which would have been my great-grandfather, my grandfather, and finally, my dad.
As I tried to say above a PSYOPs by those who are truly evil?
Look at how they are trying to project THEIR NASTY ACTIONS on to President Trump. Were the Satanists more successful in deflecting the blame onto the Freemasons?
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is an example of the blame-casting that was unmasked.
Even higher up, or those who originated it all.
I am in no way impugning the characters of your family members, whom I of course don’t know. I am only saying that there is more to Freemasonry than a lot of people are aware of, even some who are a part of it. Many Protestant denominations, in addition to the Catholic Church, have prohibited it for a number of reasons, some of which are listere here. https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/the-faqs-is-freemasonry-compatible-with-christianity/ Some people don’t think these things are significant as long as their intentions are pure. To each his own.
Look up the meaning of Jahbulon. Suggest anything by Pike. Much of the REAL doctrine is hidden from the “proletariat”.
Die Freimaurer are a dangerous organization indeed, and the god they worship (Jahbulon) is NOT GOD.
Sorry if that ruffles feathers, but which is more important: the World, or one’s immortal soul and all eternity…
http://www.cuttingedge.org has a number of articles from a Biblical and research standpoint on it. Mormonism is similar (and related). “Oh, but they’re such nice people”. And many of them are, fully unaware of what the upper levels of their religion stand for.
The same is true of Scientology. The “fresh meat”, “wogs”, “pre-clears” have no idea of what the “OT Levels” comprise. Nor did Tom Cruise or Jon Travolta (or Lisa McPherson) before they set foot on “Fair Winds” to pursue OT4 and above… “Clear the Planet” and RRPF if you don’t.
EST, “The Forum”, “Science of Mind” and other “self-help” or “charitable endeavours” follow a similar path, all based on “the power of ME”…
I haven’t journied in the East, but I’ve journied in enough of these other organizations to know what they stand for, and from whence their power/appeal comes.
Acts 4:8-12:
I can only quote (and say) in this regard Joshua 24:15:

Ezra finally ended up as the national security adviser to United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
>>>>>
But there is ANOTHER General Flynn pick a certain Derek Harvey. He has been on Nunes’ staff since September 2017. A compatriot of Ezra Cohen-Watnick, Harvey, like Ezra was fired by H. R. McMaster in late July 2017.
Harvey is a longtime intelligence analyst who had been close to General Flynn. A Ret. Army Col., Harvey is a Senior Executive Service-member of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA).
DIA is a national-level intelligence organization that does not belong to a single military element or the traditional chain of command, instead answering to the Secretary of Defense directly through the USDI.

Money quote:
“How long until people figure out @RichardGrenell was intimately involved in uncovering/investigating all that theft of US foreign aid in Ukraine while he was supposedly just minding his own business as Germany’s ambassador? 🤔”
He he . Things are getting lit
Yep. I have a feeling Grenell has lit a fire under the NAZIs v2.0 and Eurocrats that will burn like a coal-seam fire or tire fire that cannot be put out by conventional deep-state methods; indeed, at all.
Our latest False Flag, in Hanau, involves a TRUE nutcase, who is being characterized as an ultra-right wing NAZI (contratiction in terms) terrorist; yet the eight Moslems (refauxgees) who REPEATEDLY gang-raped a young woman in Freiburg are considered “lone wolves”, not terrorists, not racist (despite what they said and how they treated her), and those who are not being quietly let off are routed into the Psych wards, only to be let go in six months to a year, to repeat their crimes.
And the probably MK-ultra-altered perp, will have to face charges, as competent to do so (i.e. “no nutcase for you”) as he’s German, and his targets weren’t…

A mobile trash incinerator?????
I’m betting Comey and Eric Holder put in an order for one.
Unless Comey is a really deeply embedded white hat. Then his random tweeters about the corn being ready for harvest make sense. All those investigations and investigation units waiting to trigger . So much really big swamp money disrupted.

Auschwitz comes to mind.
China has as little respect for human life as the Nazis, Marxists and the Democrats.
We KNOW that Wuhan has 47 crematoriums already.
For less than 2000 dead there is no reason these crematoriums could not handle the problem.
40 MORE Mobile incinerators?
NO, it brings all the stats into question which we are receiving from the CCP.
No one is buying their numbers any more.
daughnworks247
The answer lies in the videos from Wuhan showing 30-story apartment buildings that were welded shut with their inhabitants inside — at night, there are NO lights in the windows except for a very few.
My opinion:
The Wuhan government has opened these buildings and the DEAD are being removed for incineration.
Yeah, did you see the video of the woman jumping to her death?
Yikes. Lot more we don’t know.
Where are the climatechange nutters on this?
Yep. Seems like the 2.5 µm crowd (ma and particulates) would be all over this…
Especially James Hansen and his coal death trains…
Interesting. Wurst Press replaced µ (mu) (a “u” with a long descender on the left) with “a”. 2.5 micron particulate scam perpetrated by the Øbozo EPA…
Barnes Law has some dirt on Holder that I didn’t realize we had.
Paul Sperry hit a nerve.
Hah!
Holder is used to shutting people up by accusing them of being “racist”.
But that doesn’t apply here.
And in typical Alinsky-ite form…he accuses Sperry of ‘using the justice system for political reasons’.
Which is *exactly* what Holder did!

Thanks! I had forgotten all about that one! Surprised it’s still there!!!
you’re so right about socialism not wanting to solve problems–more failure requires more government intervention–more government dependence.
Communist Rule #2
Never let a crisis go to waste.
Communist Rule #1
Create the conditions for a crisis.
What this means is….
Sow the conditions for a crisis to manifest itself and THEN claim to be the one who can solve it. “If you just give me the power to correct this issue, I promise that blah blah blah.”

In the post, it should be noted that Tesla was calmly reading in a paper book. If he’d been reading a Kindle, both he and the device might get fried.
It wasn’t called a Kindle for nothing.
When I first heard about the Kindle, I thought it was the coolest thing.
Then I realized what a powerful tool it is for erasing history. Digital books can be changed without anyone knowing.
I have an old Dictionary in book form. Looking at definitions from 40 yrs ago and comparing them to definitions in today’s dictionary.com is a real eye opener.
It is entirely natural for words to change meaning over time.
The word “silly” once meant “sacred.” It went through a number of slight shifts and now means, well…silly.
Nevertheless, 40 years of changes, particularly with the written word to be around as a reminder of what the word means, shouldn’t be THAT much.
(And your point about the kindle being revisable in a way that printed books aren’t, is a damned good one.)

I asked @KaitMarieox why she was at Ohio University–the campus where protests against her turned violent:
“Quickly after people learned I was there it only took about I would say 30 minutes for hundreds of students to form and then they started throwing stuff at my head.”
I asked @KaitMarieox if there was any specific interaction that prompted the escalation of tensions:
“Twitter lies about me and people lie about my beliefs and the things I say … Those people believe it. They hate me and did that because Twitter told them to.”
I asked @KaitMarieox about her work for the controversial outlet InfoWars and now gun rights advocacy:
“I’m a capitalist … I love looking at the opportunities I’m presented with and going full force with them … I closed some doors in the past and I let other ones open.”
I asked @KaitMarieox about the support she’s received since the viral encounter:
“Sometimes it seems like the hate outweighs the support. But I know that for every single person that watches this, one person agrees there’s 10 others behind them that disagrees with violence.”
I asked @KaitMarieox about the racist remarks her colleague @Joelpatrick1776 faced during the protest:
“A lot of people were actually really mad at him for even being there with me. People accused him of being paid to wear Trump attire, being paid to have conservative opinions.”
At long last, I’ve found a suitable daughter-in-law.
I love her.

Tennessee just executed a monster that justly deserved it. Recent Fake News articles got all whiny about how he was “forced” to choose electrocution over lethal injection because he was afear’d of all the horror stories about lethal injection.
If you’ll excuse my dragging out my hobbyhorse…..nitrogen asphyxiation.
Nitrogen is about 3/4 of natural air in the first place — if it had a color or odor, you’d be looking at it and smelling it now. It is widely used in semiconductor processing to purge reaction chambers. Accordingly, Silicon Valley has nitrogen pipelines running all over the place, just like most places have water and sewer. And, as with any utility running everywhere, there have been industrial accidents — which I’ve been reading about in the local news since 1985. First symptom — you slump to the floor; second symptom — you die.
As it turns out, nearly all the normal symptoms of asphyxiation are a result of CO2 buildup. That’s what causes anxiety, panting, sweating, and panic. In an atmosphere of N3, there is no CO2 buildup — you exhale it normally and it goes away from you. There is nothing to notice as your blood oxygen level is depleted. It decreases faster than you might suspect because the partial pressure of gases in your lungs causes you to actually exhale oxygen while breathing normally.
People have been revived from partial asphyxiations. So far as they can recall, everything was fine….until they woke up being revived. No pain, no symptoms, no mental anguish, just *boink*.
Supposedly humane animal shelters have used decompression, carbon dioxide, and carbon monoxide for surplus animals. Each has horrific side effects that nitrogen asphyxiation bypasses.
If I had a long-time pet with a condition that required euthanasia, the best possible situation I could imagine would allow me to enter into a chamber with a breathing mask, then play with and cuddle my buddy as the atmosphere went totally nitrogen. I read about Florida and their iguana problem, and people hacking at them with garden tools — a box of nitrogen would be far more efficient and ethical. Prisoners on death row should have the option of a method that is painless. Should I ever get to the point where I decided to retire from this planet, this would be my method of choice.
Someone might invent another method that is even less stressful some day. I’d be interested in hearing about it.
But, right now, I’d like for every state to include nitrogen asphyxiation into their execution methods so we don’t have to read stupid sob-stories about lethal injection or electrocution for monsters.
OTOH some of those really deserve a miserable exit
There are a whole bunch who I wouldn’t mind seeing fed into an industrial shredder…..but if the sentence reads “death” and the relevant statutes determine “painless”, I think it’s totally stupid to do anything but nitrogen asphyxiation.
Like I said, if my best buddy had to be put down, it’s the method I would choose. How dare a convicted murderer claim more privilege than I’d give a treasured companion?

President Trump Announces Advisory Board to Expose Research Using Aborted Baby Parts
The Trump administration took another step to defend unborn babies Wednesday when it announced the formation of a new ethics board to look into the use of aborted baby body parts in government-funded research.
The new National Institutes of Health (NIH) Human Fetal Tissue Research Ethics Advisory Board is one of several ways the Trump administration has been working to end the unethical practice of using aborted baby body parts in taxpayer-funded scientific research.

Bill Barr Indicts 8 For Illegally Funneling Foreign Money To Adam Schiff And Multiple Dem Senators
………….. End text.
From the article referenced in the tweet:
Bill Barr just dropped the hammer on the hypocritical Democrats and this wound will take years to heal.
Bill Barr just broke up a massive scheme to illegally funnel foreign money into darn near every Democratic political candidate and organization.
The list of the Dem organizations taking this illegal money is astounding – almost every Dem state organization and many super PAC’s including the big one Priorities USA.
All of the leading names in the Democratic party took in this money including Adam Schiff and Ted Lieu, Jon Tester, Cory Booker, Hillary Clinton, etc.
A real rogues gallery if ever there was.
To add insult to Adam Schiff’s injury, one of those charged is George Nader a key witness in the Mueller investigation.
Nader is a convicted child molester. Nader works as a straw man for the middle east sheiks and it is clear now he was to influence certain members of Trump’s team as well as the entire Democratic party establishment.
……………. End quote.
The article’s source is this from the Justice Department:
https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/california-ceo-and-seven-others-charged-multi-million-dollar-conduit-campaign-contribution
From the DOJ Release:
A federal grand jury in the District of Columbia indicted Ahmad “Andy” Khawaja, 48, of Los Angeles, California, on Nov. 7, 2019, along with George Nader, Roy Boulos, Rudy Dekermenjian, Mohammad “Moe” Diab, Rani El-Saadi, Stevan Hill and Thayne Whipple.
The 53 count indictment charges Khawaja with two counts of conspiracy, three counts of making conduit contributions, three counts of causing excessive contributions, 13 counts of making false statements, 13 counts of causing false records to be filed, and one count of obstruction of a federal grand jury investigation.
Nader is charged with conspiring with Khawaja to make conduit campaign contributions, and related offenses. Boulos, Dekermenjian, Diab, El-Saadi, Hill, and Whipple are charged with conspiring with Khawaja and each other to make conduit campaign contributions and conceal excessive contributions, and related offenses.
Would be funny, to me anyway if some of that foreign money came from Russia. The irony would be LOLF.
Isn’t this the guy that promised compromising pix of Schiff and did not follow through?????
Educating the public.
You know, Big T is unusual in that he did a LOT of jury trials.
He was flabbergasted that there was a lawyer on the jury in the Stone case.
It would be an automatic strike.
He couldn’t remember ever hearing of another time/any other jury, where a lawyer was selected to be a jury.
Most lawyers would never consider it, because that person would have a tendency to lead the rest of the jury.
Plus
We KNOW Tomeka ran for Congress in Tennessee in 2006.
If she moved to DC in 2006, how the heck did she sit on 4 juries from 2006-2019 and become the foreperson on 3 of the 4 juries? It would be almost impossible to be called for jury duty that often.
And serve as a foreperson?
I’m a little curious as to there other cases where she was involved.
The one and only time I was on a jury, there was a cop in the pool. He was eliminated almost immediately. A friend who is a lawyer told me they weren’t allowed.
And then when I was telling her about the experience and what happened in the jury room, I told her we went around the room to say what we thought. I said, I don’t know what really happened, but we didn’t see it in that courtroom. And my friend came back with, You’re too smart to be a juror, how did you slip through.
That told me a lot.
My friend told me lawyers weren’t allowed. I don’t know if that is really true or not.
I don’t know either.
Strange though.
So glad you brought this up Daughn. I thought the same thing about this lawyer being allowed to be on the jury. Of course they would lead the rest of the jury. One would think that would be disqualifying. The fact that she was on 4 juries is really suspect. I was selected for 1 so far that actually went to trial in a big city, probably 25 years ago, and summoned again for a local county court maybe 8 years ago, but it never went to trial. So the fact that all 4 of those cases actually went to trial, is also suspect. Definitely something stinky going on here.

hahahahahaha…ICE “violates” CA law (they can’t arrest illegals with detainers in state courthouses)–arrests them anyway…FEDERAL law TRUMPS state law…
FTA
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents reportedly violated a California state law that prohibits immigration officers from arresting undocumented immigrants without a judicial warrant on Tuesday, according to the Associated Press.
Two people were arrested in the Sonoma County Superior Court in Northern California, one of whom was supposedly awaiting a hearing. This goes directly against Assembly Bill No.668, the law that Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom signed in October 2019.
The bill reiterates California’s power to regulate what occurs on state courthouse grounds, and fundamentally declares that “A person shall not be subject to civil arrest in a courthouse while attending a court proceeding or having legal business in the courthouse.”
Only the presence of a valid judicial warrant would allow officers — either ICE or other law enforcement — to arrest someone awaiting hearings in California.
ICE justified the arrests by saying that California’s law does not supersede federal law, which still grants immigration enforcement officers authority to arrest “removable aliens inside the United States.”
“Our officers will not have their hands tied by sanctuary rules when enforcing immigration laws to remove criminal aliens from our communities,” David Jennings, ICE’s field office director in San Francisco, said in a statement quoted in AP.

the inevitable has happened…woman suing jail because she was raped by a biological male who identifies as female housed with her in an all female prison…
FTA
A woman in jail in Illinois claims she was raped by a biological man who identifies as a woman. The jail and attorneys for the accused claim it was consensual. Even if she’s lying, it’s still a clear cut case against mixing jails. Otherwise, the majority of inmates in men’s prisons will be jumping at the opportunity to be transferred to an all-women jail.
That’s assuming she’s lying. But based on the details in this story, it seems extremely likely that she’s telling the truth and was actually raped.

Go James!! The replies are even better. 😁
This is incorrect and fake.
Applying a tax rate on income above a certain threshold ($29,000 in this case) is only applied to the income above that threshold. The $29,000 income would remain untaxed.
So, the tax would be 52% of $2,200, which is the difference between $31,200 and $29,000, and would be about $1,144.
I love James Woods and am not a socialist, but I also don’t like fake math.
Math cannot be fake, it works either way. Has Bernie specifically clarified the METHOD of how his tax is to be applied???
Let me clarify:
The math is incorrect. The post from James Woods is fake/disingenuous.
To answer your question: AFAIK, Bernie has not clarified the method.
However, when it comes to taxation, there has never been a situation where a tax rate is regressively applied. For James Woods to post this scenario as how such a tax would be applied is simply misleading and has no basis to be considered as a possibility. Yes, it’s technically possible, but it’s not realistic to believe that this is what Bernie intends to do. Especially since he DIDN’T specifically state that this unusual method would be applied.
In conclusion, most Conservatives have now spent three+ years reading fake disingenuous “news“ that spin words and create “facts” to make President Trump look the worst. I wish that James Woods wouldn’t risk his authenticity by tweeting easily debunked stuff.
Quite frankly, James did not have to spin the math as he did. Just report the fact that Bernie wants to tax everyone at 52% starting at $29,000. That’s crazy enough.
Read it again Chimpy.
Bernie is NOT talking about our current tax system he is talking about a Socialist – Commie system.
His answer to how to pay for universal health care is:
Raise the tax to 52% FOR ANYONE MAKING OVER $29,000.
Take that as LITERAL because the ONLY way you could hope to pay for universal health care is to confiscate 50%+ of the earnings of everyone with a full time job.
What he is HOPING is people will think as you do, that it applies to our graduated tax system and not take it literally.
James Wood is trying to get people to THINK about exactly what Bernie means.
Remember Hillary’s raise taxes on the middle class and people cheered?
[Content of post removed upon Chimpy’s request. -Wolf]
I’m not trying to promote fighting here between y’all, and I’d prefer if you both buried the hatchet. THAT SAID, this was in spam for some reason, which I thought was weird – it looks like an AI decision by Akismet that found it argumentative. I’ve seen this happen before. Nevertheless, this is a free speech blog, and I think Ken is correct here at least on how progressive taxes work, although I’ve not looked at the proposal myself, so I’m just taking this comment as is without examination.
ANYWAY – free speech, yada yada yada, so here it is! I didn’t moderate this.
Wolf, I apologize to the board and fully agree with you. Won’t happen again.
As you can see, I posted a nicer response as well. Actually, it gets my point across far better than the snarky aggressive response. Feel free to stick my not-so-nice post back in the bin where it belongs.
This proves again the “wait 24 hours” rule before responding. I thought that you moderated the first aggressive response. Then, I calmed down and posted the nicer response. Then, you allowed the first to post… It’s a bit confusing now.
Alright, moving on…
We love you both, Chimpy.
I thought it was only 10% above the 29K mark OR 10% of the 31,200.
What it does prove, is that no one voting for Bernie has any idea what his tax plan is.
And I’m thinking…. neither does Bernie.
Sure, no problem! And I do want everybody to know that (1) it’s not me that “moderates” responses – I suspect it’s an Akismet AI that WordPress won’t admit is operating, and (2) I have, a couple of times, left really eye-widening posts in the bin, but I made my own post to say that I had done so, and that is my plan at this point. Censorship is abhorrent to me, and I’d rather that there were ruffled feathers than any quiet censorship, no matter how “well-intended”.
I’ll “edit out” the heated post now so that this conversation remains.
Your post in bold is incorrect, Gail.
In fact, James Woods tweet is more incorrect than I originally thought.
I found Bernie’s plan online here:
https://www.sanders.senate.gov/download/options-to-finance-medicare-for-all?inline=file
On page two, it explains:
Progressive income tax rates.
Under this plan the marginal income tax rate would be:
40 percent on income between $250,000 and $500,000.
45 percent on income between $500,000 and $2 million.
50 percent on income between $2 million and $10 million.
52 percent on income above $10 million.
First off, a “progressive income tax rate” is one that applies the % only to the income above the bracket below. So, that debunks most of your comments above.
Secondly, note how the 52% only applies to income above $10 million.
So, not only does James ignore the fact that this is a progressive scheme, but also he ignores the multiple tax brackets in between $29,000 (which is currently at 10%) and up to $250,000, which the Bernie plan shows (above) to be increased to 40% (currently it is 35%).
Gail, I don’t appreciate you telling me to “read it again”, when you clearly haven’t done any research into this yourself. You certainly are allowed to have your opinion on what other people could be “thinking” or “hoping”, but attacking others who actually bring specific facts to the discussion is not the solution to getting your point across.

Yep! thanks!
you’re welcome!
“friends” finally admitting Omar married her brother–immigration fraud–however, notice the wording in the story. Her first marriage was in a mosque–that one “counted”. the second one (to her brother) was in a Christian “church” which says it’s nondenominational–so that one doesn’t count? (and there’s more possible charges–student loan fraud, etc)
FTA
After their marriage Omar and Elmi moved to Fargo, where they both attended North Dakota State. But Omar and Hirsi were still together as husband and wife, Osman said.
‘She said she needed to get papers for her brother to go to school. We all thought she was just getting papers together to allow him to stay in this country.
‘Once she had the papers they could apply for student loans.
‘They both moved to North Dakota to go to school but she was still married to [Hirsi]. In the Somali way, the only marriage that mattered was the one in the mosque.
‘Ilhan came back to Minneapolis all the time to see her family, but her brother didn’t come with her.’
Osman believes Elmi and Omar sought out someone outside the Somali community to conduct the ceremony because an imam would have known they were related and would have refused to marry them.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8013283/Ilhan-Omar-DID-marry-brother-reveals-Somali-community-leader.html
One of the hallmarks of being in a marital relationship is to “hold themselves out as married” irrespective of what type of marriage it is. Lots of people think a marriage license is required to be married but that is not so. Any clergy in any state (as far as I know) can marry two qualifying individuals and it is valid. The whole rationale behind having a church marriage with all the people present is so the public at large knows that these two people are now married. Marriage used to mean lots of things it no longer seems to mean but the old traditions persist.
The First Amendment protects the right of freedom to associate. Marriage is the oldest ‘association’ in the world and the state govt cannot require a license in order to ‘associate’ in marriage. Some sort of orderly ceremony IS required in order to show proof of the intent of the two people and to designate/record the start of the marriage beyond merely saying ‘we were married on such-and-such a date’.
I can only imagine this Somalia slut trying to convince a court that her mosque was valid because Islam is not a religion. I’d have to have lots of popcorn at the ready.
Brain misfire. Should be ‘first marriage isn’t valid because Islam isn’t a religion’.
