Dear KAG: 2021-04-02 The Light at the End of the Tunnel: Good Friday

Wolf’s Pub is open on this best of Fridays. Today the pub is dry but let us gather together, share a morsel of bread, and speak of momentous events.
“What is truth?” a man once asked Christ Jesus, just before he condemned him to death.

That is a question that has echoed down the ages, and today seems more important than ever. The election of Donald John Trump to the Presidency of the United States in 2016 set in motion a revealing of truth—that we are living in a contrived reality.

Every organized institution has failed us. Our governments routinely lie to us as they lead us on to ever more coercive state control. Our politicians are corrupt and compromised, loyal to the System and not their oaths.

The medical establishment has become so ideologically driven that Dr. Tony Fauci, director of NIAID, easily lies to the American public as he sells us out to the pharmaceutical companies and even more malign actors.

Academia is bloated and depraved. They poison the minds of our students beginning in Kindergarten all the way through university with fundamental lies about biological science, among many other things.

Our clergy is often driven by ties to government and NGOs, rather than the truths of revealed religion. Let me digress for a moment and share a story that is well known, but bears repeating:

“…I heard John MacArthur share one time about a church in England. And they had over the archway going into the church, ”We preach Christ crucified.” (1 Cor. 1:23) And that was the motto of their church, outside, they had ivy growing up the wall. And then, as the years went by and the ivy grew, and things changed in the church, the ivy covered up ”crucified.” And then it’s just ”We preach Christ.” And he quit preaching the crucifixion, and then they just started preaching the life and the example of Jesus. And as the years went by, and the church moved more and more to the left and more and more liberal, then the ivy grew up and it just said, ”We preach.” And it wasn’t about Jesus anymore. It was just about loving your neighbor and being a good person. And then, as the years went by, the ivy grew and it just became, ”We.” And they met, and it was just all about us. It’s all about we. It’s all about me. That can easily happen.”

End of digression

The revelation of all the lies has rocked the foundation of our society. Is anything we read or hear true? Just how bad are the lies? Can we trust anything or anyone at this point? Maybe we really are watching a film. Is our whole existence a controlled show?

It feels like we are standing on the edge of an abyss. Despair beckons.

In 1972’s edition of “How to Read a Book,” Mortimer J. Adler wrote:

“…the very media we have mentioned are so designed to make thinking seem unnecessary…The packaging of intellectual positions and views is one of the most active enterprises of some of the best minds of our day. The viewer of television, the listener to radio, the reader of magazines, is presented with a whole complex of elements–all the way from ingenious rhetoric to carefully selected data and statistics–to make it easy for him to ‘make up his own mind’ with the minimum of difficulty and effort. But the packaging is often done so effectively that the viewer, listener, or reader does not make up his own mind at all. Instead, he inserts a packaged opinion into his mind, somewhat like inserting a cassette into a cassette player. He then pushes a button and ‘plays back’ the opinion whenever it seems appropriate to do so. He has performed acceptably without having had to think.”

From the 1972 edition. From a book originally published in 1940.

Back to Good Friday

Before he died, Jesus spoke of His followers to the Father:

“I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.” (John 17:14-19)

But then Good Friday arrives. The day when the living Truth died for all mankind and changed everything. “He was crucified, died, and was buried…”

We have the Truth.

And next He comes as a Judge.

And justice will be done.

The evil one and his earthly minions will be overcome. Jesus told His followers, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)

I am so grateful for Good Friday. We need Christ crucified.

House Rules

Sometimes, when Christendom celebrates the holiest of days on the liturgical calendar, things surface to be cleansed away. Let us pray that we spend this day in peace and civility with one another, as is the Rule here.

The Utree is provided by Wolf for more ordinary things, and also for a place to gather should this site ever become unavailable. Thank you, Wolf, for all you do.

War Room

Do take the time to listen to the War Room this week. Each episode includes more and more information about the lies we’ve been fed regarding the China Virus, now dubbed the Fauci Virus. LOL. Peter Navarro is openly suggesting collusion between Dr. Fauci and the Wuhan lab that includes accusations of a gain-of-function mechanism in the China virus.

And President Trump came out swinging.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is a blessing.

Marjorie Taylor Greene on War Room Pandemic.

More here. Lots of videos from WRP on Rumble.

We are at another turning point in history. God has it all. And He shares with His people.

Praying for patriots everywhere. God bless and keep them and make His face to shine upon them.

There is light at the end of the tunnel.

This screenshot was posted in yesterday’s Open Thread. There was some debate over the current American blood donation guidelines not matching up with the screenshot. The reason for that is because this screenshot is from the Japanese Red Cross Society. Read the top right corner the screenshot to confirm. I also strongly suspect that what was screenshotted was a translation from Google Translate as I can’t find this page on the Japanese Red Cross’s English language section. Needless to say, I don’t know how accurate the translation is. I’m not going to call “Fake News” on this, but be advised that it is NOT related to American blood donation, and that the highlighted part is of unknown translation accuracy.

Here’s the website if anyone cares to dig:

https://www.jrc.or.jp/

cthulhu

Well spotted!!! Kudos for bringin’ the facts!

Emeraldstar

Someone posted yesterday (or the day before) about how it appears that almost all the “advocacy” or “charity” groups (like the SPCL) have morphed into scams.

Perhaps they always were…

Here’s a reminder about the “benevolent” Red Cross:

Dec 4, 2017
“[…]
Red Cross is corrupt and used as a piggy bank.
Future topic.
Diseases created by families in power (pop control + pharma billions kb).
Think AIDS.
[…]”

Jan 7, 2018
“[…]
US taxpayers are paying for it all.
Paris accord = scam (trillions)
Red Cross = scam (billions)
Foreign Aid = scam (trillions)
WAR = scam (trillions)
………on…and….on……..
Who audits where the money actually goes?
Who actually receives the money?
The US taxpayer is funding the very people we are engaged in taking down.
Slush funds everywhere.
[…]”

Deplorable Patriot

A lot of disease related “non-profits” are the cash cow pipelines for questionable research. I used to work for one.

Emeraldstar

I strongly suspect that “Charity Navigator” – the most relied-upon “fact-checker” – isn’t any different that the media “fact-checkers”.

Direct charity – *oneself* helping out another individual – seems the way to go.

Organized charity – using a middleman – seems the way NOT to go.

Aubergine

We are all “babies,” no matter how old we are. There is no achieving perfection in this life.

However, I like you have come to the realization that I can best serve by helping one person at a time, in my own sphere. How terrible is it to have someone come to you with a need you could have fulfilled, if only you hadn’t sent your money to that anonymous charity?

kalbokalbs

“How terrible is it to have someone come to you with a need you could have fulfilled, if only you hadn’t sent your money to that anonymous charity?”

^^^ B I N G O. ^^^

After decades of routinely donating to a handful of US based charities, I now exclusively give directly to the needy. Literally “dirt poor”. One family, that has blossomed into five. Through no fault of their own, lived in very meager circumstances, that we assist routinely.

Fundamentally my charity work with “coaching” and dollars is along the lines of enabling. Loosely parallel with, “teach a man to fish…” Worked with them to create a vision for their future. Develop goals to achieve their vision. Tweak goals as they go along while maintaining the vision. Most of all, they needed the CAPABILITY to achieve what was otherwise literally impossible in their circumstances.

~Twelve years into this…

They work their asses off to transcend what was their literal survival mode. A few small pieces of land with modest safe places to live. Grow vegetables and fruit. Some combination of a few chickens, goats and pigs. Banca boat and net for fishing. Raise fish on a large scale.

Full four year scholarship (tuition, room, board and minor allowance) for two nieces to achieve a BS Nursing degree. One or two more in high school likely to opt for nursing career path in a few years. Their choice. They gotta ask. I won’t suggest. They gotta WANT it.

Most of what we have sent are along the lines of “grants” to improve of the fundamentals of what they have started together. A few are zero interest loans. Loans they gotta pay back on a schedule, they create in advance of securing the loan. Have never lost a peso. 🙂

Reality is, money they have paid back is always plowed back into grants or another loan. The unique thing about the loans is, they are ALWAYS their idea. ONLY for a new venture of sorts or improving how they make money to secure their future. I don’t fund luxuries or nice to have.

Yes, this is on the Philippines. Yes, they are relatives.

Also, yes, we have also on a smaller scale assisted non family along these lines. Folks with so very little, asking for a helping hand (grant or loan) to improve their lives.

As we move along in retirement, we have everything we need and most anything we want. Going into the future, we’ll continue this mode of helping those in incredibly difficult circumstances.

wheatietoo

You’re a good man, Kalbo.
 😌  👏 

Aubergine

That is inspirational! Good for you!

What a wonderful way to help others.

singingsoul1

God Bless you and your wife.

Valerie Curren

This is very beautiful KBK.

Years ago my dad made a pledge to God that Any increase he got in salary from that point he would commit 50% of it to “the Lord’s Account”. They use this funding for various charitable purposes in their church & further afield.

They also use this funding to assist various family members & fund some family gatherings, that they consider to be the Lord’s work (I like to joke at certain restaurant events that “God’s buying”). They helped my family w/ tuition for a local Christian school we couldn’t afford to attend on our own, even w/ the scholarships our kids got to attend.

They have given limited funds to each grandchild in college on a semester basis & have set aside similar monies for the one’s that haven’t made college age yet & these are part of their “end-of-life” instructions.

I believe the Lord has really blessed my parents financially because they have been good stewards with the resources He’s entrusted to them. My dad took early retirement in the mid-90’s & most of his buy out was provided in stocks for his company.

Over the years they’ve used various financial planners but often taken an aggressive approach & continued to invest in the stock market. Per a discussion a few years back, perhaps 25 years after retirement, their net assets have gone up, even with all the funds they generously contribute.

As my husband likes to say “you can’t out-give God” & “you can’t steal from a giver”.

Thank you for sharing about the beautiful & direct way you impact lives for good–what an inspiration!

My brother when he was director of German Lutheran missionaries to Africa and Asia people came to him wanting to be missionaries. He always ask if they had served people in their own backyard and why not. He was always taken back that people want to help people in other countries but did nothing for their neighbor or people in their city or state or their own church. I always was taken back having poor people in the church struggling and we collected for other countries.
I agree help people around you and then further out.

Valerie Curren

That would be the principle of Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, & Then the Uttermost Part of the Earth!

Valerie Curren

I’m such a baby Christian. Even after a lifetime.”

If we’re being honest this is likely a true statement for most Christians. Think of the widow’s mite. She put in “all she had to live on”…that takes some very great faith of the kind I’ve never known or experienced.

Deplorable Patriot

Charity Navigator is a virtue signaling sort of thing. I use it a lot for research purposes. What you do – and this has been my task over the years – is put public financial information into the data base so that major donors know that the “non-profit” is spending their money on programs and not overhead. 8-10% overhead is acceptable. Then you link it all up to the website, and so long as you have an increase in donations over expenses annually, you get a four star rating.

Guidestar is the other membership website where you can get all this. That one is a little more meaningful, IMO, as the 990s are published. That’s where you can find out who the top contributors to any one organization. The thing is there is a membership fee, and it’s not cheap to get at this information.

Emeraldstar

At one point, CN had the Hildebeast’s Foundation rated as 4 or 5 stars (5, IIRC).

The numbers are only as good as the source. Who the major donors are is good info … but where the money *goes* is the greater problem, IMO.

And those books can be cooked.

And regulators can choose to ignore what they wish – as can prosecutors.

Deplorable Patriot

Believe me, I know the books can be cooked. One non-profit where I worked, I took one look at the financials and knew a few numbers were off. I didn’t trust the executive director to be honest about overhead.

Yes, the Clinton Foundation eventually earned a four star rating, but before that, they were on the watch list for poor practices. The publicity forced them to clean up the public records. I don’t believe their financials, but they did what they had to to save face, anyway.

And…for who the major donors are…that info can tell you A LOT about the organization. 501c3s cannot have more than a third of their income from any one source after seed funding. 501c4s – these are the PACs, essentially – can be bankrolled by a single individual.

I worked in fundraising for a number of years. Believe me, the laws were set up for the benefit of the donors more than anything else.

Emeraldstar

I *do* believe you, DePat – thanks for your perspective!

I’ve done some fundraising for non-profits as well … and with what I know now, I look back on it as a mistake.

Deplorable Patriot

I don’t see it as a mistake, but it was definitely eye opening.

kalbokalbs

Also worked for a non profit for a few decades ago.

Most of that hierarchy was retired military. Learned all were making six figure salaries. Me $40K. Most of the employees making minimum wage. My conclusion after a couple years was they made a very nice living off the backs of the less fortunate with no chance of upward growth.

Year three, I voluntarily took a pay cut and left. One of two times I have taken a pay cut to leave a crappy work situation.

Fundamentally, I don’t trust charities at all.

singingsoul1

After WWII I benefited from the Red Cross and many other children in Europe.
I noticed however the red Cross has changed just like everything else..

scott467

We can be vaccinated with a new coronavirus?

Kewl… hook me up pronto, Trapper John 😂🤣😂

Sadie Slays

As I said, I’m skeptical about the accuracy of this translation.

litenmaus

Sadie, I went looking to verify the information and the American Red Cross states that it follows the Federal Drug Administration guidelines…and the Federal Drug Administration guidelines seem to indicate that one can donate blood after receiving the current coronavirus vaccination and waiting two weeks.

Sadie Slays

There was a bit of debate about it in the previous thread. Here are the current American Red Cross guidelines.

https://www.redcrossblood.org/local-homepage/news/article/covid-19-vaccination-guide-blood-donation.html

Again, the first screenshot I posted is from Japan, and I don’t know if they or other countries are following the same guidelines.

cthulhu

To be fair, there was a point in time where COVID-19 wasn’t “this old c**p, AGAIN?” and it was “the new coronavirus.” That’s when they wanted it to look like it was as deadly as SARS or MERS.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Oh, yeah – the “novel coronavirus” – it was supposed to be “airborne almost Ebola” – lethalities in the double digits.

pgroup2

And dropping dead in the streets, on camera of course.

cthulhu

How soon people forget….

Aubergine

Oh, yeah.

Remember the Chinese people flopping over in the street like dead fish? Does anybody think now that it was REAL?

TheseTruths

Then I wonder if the Red Cross has different policies for different countries.

Linda

Japan seems to have been a lot smarter about a lot of things related to the coronavirus.

I’m really not worried about getting covid from a blood transfusion. What would worry me is getting all the nasty genetic manipulation into my system from a transfusion.

cthulhu

You’ll be happy to know that red blood cells have no nucleus, thus no nuclear DNA. And plasma, of course, has no cells.

So your chance of receiving nuclear DNA is limited to contaminants and impurities, not the blood transfusion itself.

Valerie Curren

Lots of bad blood between Japan & China, for generations…

Sadie Slays

Probably. They still have to follow whatever the national laws and FDA-equivalents in those countries dictate. If the Japanese government or their FDA analogue decides that the vaccinated can’t donate blood, then there’s not much the Red Cross can do about it.

Linda

Thank you for this, Sadie. My eyes are very poor at reading tiny print, so I didn’t catch this at all before posting.

GA/FL

You also can’t donate if you have a toe nail fungus infection.

wheatietoo

Do they check for this?

GA/FL

I was told this by a technician after he asked if I had any infections. Not sure if they check.

wheatietoo

Ah…so it’s pretty much the ‘honor system’ then.

I’ve read that some people store some of their own blood — to use if the need for a transfusion happens.

Not a bad idea.
Although I wouldn’t know the first thing about how to go about doing that.

wheatietoo

Yeah, I wonder how long blood can be stored.
 🤔 

Aubergine

Well, it’s interesting. You can store your own blood for about a dollar a day, but only California and New Jersey currently mandate that you have the right to receive only your own.

If you scroll down to the FAQs on this website, there is some interesting info on how it works.

https://www.lifeextension.com/magazine/2006/10/report_blood

wheatietoo

Thanks, Aubergine.

Hmm…you’d think that we automatically have the ‘right’ to use our own blood, if we have stored it.

Aubergine

Right?

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Of course if you’re hospitalized in New York and your blood is in California, and you need blood Right Now…there might be no way to get what you have a right to, even given a budget adequate to get the blood moved from Point A to Point B.

piper567

Aubergine, I remember at the time of the AIDS discovery, some churches looked into this option…Maybe it’s time to brush up.
Interest may not simply be bc of virus.

bflyjesusgrl 🍊 😎NUCLEAR MAGA😎

Blood usually lasts around 30 days, that’s why they need constant donations. Generally people who know they are having an upcoming surgery and want to receive only their own blood will go in ahead of time and donate it to set aside for their procedure.

Valerie Curren

I wanted to do that for my son’s 2nd heart surgery, in 2000 but we were discouraged from doing so for various reasons. Thankfully he didn’t need blood then or even when he got his liver transplant in 2013. Now w/ all the vaccine concerns I would Definitely bank a couple of pints of blood for surgery if there were time, just to be safe.

holly

There’s this about how blood is screened.

Thanks, Holly.

My trust level for the CDC, though, has gone down over the past year.

The delay for blood donations post vaccination seem connected to the vaccines with live viruses

Japan has been more cautious in all phases of the vaccination program. They are just now beginning to roll out the vaccines to the general population. Very few have been vaccinated. They have been slow to approve all applications of the vaccines (in comparison to the US).

As I posted yesterday and have been thinking about since yesterday … should we accept transfusions based on vaccinations? Something I had never before considered.

MAGA Mom

From what I can find it seems Japan is a fan of the “trust but verify” philosophy. They are taking US developed and US approved vaccines and putting them through their own testing and their own application process for approval.

One seems to have been approved and a few have received it and the others are due to be approved 4/12.

Makes sense that they have not yet approved blood donation for a vaccine that has not yet been approved in Japan.

I wonder how quickly the guidelines will be updated after the vaccines have been approved in Japan.

bflyjesusgrl 🍊 😎NUCLEAR MAGA😎

I’ve recently donated blood in Nov/Jan/Mar. Each time you have to filll out a mutli page questionaire that screens for a list of meds, diseases(primarily HIV, Hepatitis, Mad Cow), and risque behaviors that could have put you in contact w/listed diseases. None of this Red Cross lingo has ever been included in the Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center forms. They DO take your temp and vitals, plus measure your hematocrit(for iron). If anything is off they turn you away. They publish your test results online. It also includes a COVID neg/pos result, so that tells me they’re testing your antibodies. (Free way to get anitbody test..I’ve never had it and will not ever get it in Jesus’ Name, Amen!!)
This post made me go check about vaccine requirements. Says you can still donate blood but not plasma. Interesting, they want survivors plasma at various places, but Blood Center doesn’t want vaccinated plasma?!?!! Also, Will my antibody test show whether I have formed protective antibodies?
No, our antibody test is not likely to be positive following the vaccine.
Our screening test is designed to detect a variety of antibody that forms when you have actually been ill with the coronavirus.

So there’s different antibodies for naturally surviving COVID vs the ones the vaccines create??? So if the vaccines inject you w/COVID so that your immune system can respond and defeat it, the resulting anitbodies are NOT the same as the antibodies you’d have if you defeated COVID naturally on your own???

No vaccinated Plasma???? Different Antibodies?????
Paging WOLFIE !!!?!!?!!!

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

My dig is as follows:

(1) definitely the Japanese site, in Japanese mode, NOT in their English mode

(2) looks like a screenshot of a browser using the Google Translation Extension

(3) time not stated – likely earlier in crisis during vaccine TRIALS

(4) likely translation: Those who have vaccinated FOR the novel coronavirus are not allowed to donate blood for the time being.

(5) some of this stems from donation issues in Japanese history leading to problems, so they’re hypersensitive about “bad blood” – see the “History” section at this link: https://www.jrc.or.jp/english/activity/blood/

(6) don’t really have time to dig on current Japanese Red Cross policy, but I suspect they’re using donor delays comparable to everybody else, but likely on the conservative side

Transcript:

We need to make it clear to them that the vaccine is the ticket back to pre-pandemic life. And the window to do that is really narrowing. I mean, you were mentioning, Chris, about how all these states are reopening. They are reopening at 100%. And we have a very narrow window to tie reopening policy to vaccination status because if otherwise everything is reopened then what’s the carrot going to be? How are we going to incentivize people to actually get the vaccine? So that’s why I think the CDC and the Biden Administration needs to come out a lot bolder and say if you’re vaccinated you can do all these things, here are all these freedoms that you have, because otherwise people are going to go out an enjoy these freedoms anyway.

You don’t get to dole out ‘freedoms’ in return for compliance with Big Brother, that’s not how it works, you idiot.

This is exactly the kind of thinking that a good old fashioned ass-whipping used to cure easily.

Yesterday I kept getting on my iPhone a message from the University that they had 10 vaccines left and to come to the parking lot at the University to get the vaccine shot. Who goes to a parking lot and allowes someone to give you a vaccine shot when one does not know if one has an adverse reaction to it? No monitoring for 2 hours nothing.
Needles to say neither my husband or I did go. No shot for us. My husband is going to consult his specialist who does not even want any other doctor to prescribe him anything without his approval. We are lucky he has top doctors who really care.

scott467

There was a time when taking intravenous drugs in a parking lot was against the law…

Just depends what kind of drugs if they are approved or illegal 🙂

Concerned Virginian

Yes, that’s the ** very angry ** Dr. WEN, who apparently is just fine with “you’ll get your freedoms back if you’re all vaccinated and the government decides from there”.
Interesting that Dr. Wen talks about “carrot” and “incentivize”.
Sounds to me like the Feds are working on the “stick” to figuratively (and perhaps literally) beat We, The People into 100% “vaccine compliance”.

Back in the 90’s, I worked at a place with about 50 people. The owner was of Italian extraction, and many of the workers were Hispanic and Vietnamese — notionally Catholic.

And every year, on Good Friday, a bunch of the workers would start murmuring about taking the afternoon off. So, he started a company tradition. If you wanted to take the afternoon off, you could get in line any time after noon, and you’d be taken into his office and the door closed. After this, you could either pick up your stuff and leave without speaking to anyone and be paid for the rest of the day, or you could get your *ss back to work for the rest of your shift.

Once the door was closed and the employee sat down, he’d simply ask them, “what is Good Friday?” If they knew, they were ok to leave. If they didn’t know, he’d tell them — which got plenty of amusing reactions, usually themed around an incredulous “why is that GOOD????”

cthulhu

Mind you, when he told them, he didn’t press — he’d say, “it’s the day when Jesus was condemned to death, was put upon the cross, and died.”

He did not say that Jesus was severely beaten, and “scourged” — whipped until his back was bloody. He did not say a ringlet of thorns was shoved upon his head as a further torture in his remaining hours, nor that he was forced to drag the mechanism of his own execution up a hill towards its place while being scorned by the people who had celebrated his arrival in Jerusalem just days before by strewing palm fronds before him.

He did not speak of the iron nails that pierced Jesus’ flesh and affixed him to the cross, of his hours of agony and despair, punctuated by vinegar for his thirst….until administrative issues thrust a spear into his side, bringing an end to a day of brutal torture….

cthulhu

And Matthew 26:42 — “He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.”

cthulhu

Bakocarl has a very moving post at Marica’s — https://marica1776.wordpress.com/2021/04/01/it-has-been-finished/#comments

Never mind, it’s here as well.

Deplorable Patriot

Growing up, I never went to school on Good Friday, so, asking for the afternoon off was a chore, and some bosses wouldn’t let you off because it was the Friday before a holiday. Same with Christmas Eve.

Never mind that the Good Friday Service is at 3 pm, or Midnight Mass.

singingsoul1

I feel the same way about Christmas. Those who understand what Christmas is about get the day off and those who are not go to work.

CMinTN

Many people I work with have been getting into building them.

cthulhu

As I keep saying, John Moses Browning built all his prototypes in his home shop out of billet (blocks of metal). And he invented about half of modern individual firearms.

Though not the AR-15. That came later. Browning invented the Ma Deuce — he may well have considered an AR to be “effete”.

If any further proof of government idiocy were necessary, BATFE defines the “firearm” part of a gun to be its lower receiver. Firearm owners know that you have to disassemble a firearm to clean and lubricate it, and know that the lower receiver (a) is mostly air; (b) has less precision machining; and (c) is the structurally weakest part of a gun. It is, for example, the first major piece to go polymer.

Confronted with a lower receiver, a slide, and a barrel, the lower receiver is generally the last piece that would be identified as being a firearm. But it’s the one that gets the serial number, so barrels and slides are “accessories”.

Yes, and with hospitals not allowing visitors, or at least not allowing visitors to COVID patients, there are fewer people to know what’s really going on with the patients’ condition and treatment, and much less accountability for the hospitals.

My mother-in-law was living in skilled nursing for several years. With the advent of WuFlu there was a suspension of eating in the lunchroom. Residents now eat in their rooms. This has taken an enormous toll on the overall well-being of the residents…they’re giving up and who can blame them. Isolation is poison to the human spirit.
After a couple of months of this, MIL passed. We were able to visit outside while the weather was still warm but once that was ended she spiraled down in short order.

Texas AG Pax­ton Files Law­suit Defend­ing States Against Shock­ing Costs of Ille­gal Immigrationhttps://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/news/releases/ag-paxton-files-lawsuit-defending-states-against-shocking-costs-illegal-immigration

Attorney General Ken Paxton led a 14-state coalition before the United States Supreme Court in defense of the “public-charge” rule, a federal law prohibiting immigration by aliens who are likely to rely on taxpayer-funded government programs. Previously, an Illinois county and a left-wing non-profit sued the Trump Administration, challenging the public-charge rule, and the court blocked its enforcement. The United States Supreme Court agreed to hear a case regarding the rule, but President Biden refused to defend. Texas sought to defend the rule in the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit and was denied. Subsequently, Texas filed this lawsuit with the Supreme Court.  

“Texas taxpayers are forced to pay hundreds of millions of dollars every year to sustain the services our state must provide to illegal aliens. Without the public-charge rule, our Medicaid budget and other vital services will explode and be spread too thin, costing taxpayers millions more and reducing the quality of service we can provide,” said Attorney General Paxton. “President Biden failed to work through the administrative rule-making process and left Texas, along with our neighboring states, vulnerable. This is a shameless attempt to unravel common-sense immigration policies favored by a strong majority of Texans, and it cannot stand.”

EVERYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAPITOL SHOOTING IN 21 MINUTES OR LESS

I don’t know if it is accurate but thought some might be interested.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

This just changed my mind about everything.

It’s WRONG – WRONG – ALL WRONG.

“How Do We Get Rid Of Not Just Trump, But Trumpism Itself?”

BASTARDS.

That is what this WHOLE thing was about. McCain’s REVENGE.

Well, they MISSED THIS BUFFALO.

cthulhu

Shouldn’t that be “Uniparty REVENGE”?

I don’t do bitchute videos without a bunch of screwing around, but you’ve been very perceptive about everything around this situation. I mean, take the “they’re really after you, I’m just in their way” poster….

What is so surprising?

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

OK. This is fuzzy, but to me this PARTICULAR drama is less .gov and more .mil.

The faux radicals, IMO, were mostly an MIIC operation – the corruptos who needed Trump GONE.

The ones totally in bed with globonazis who have it in for “patriots”.

A lot of ties to “FOREIGN”.

It’s ugly.

The larger incident was a large orchestration including for the most part the UNIPARTY, but the dramatics by deniable military assets who tried to incite us to BURN DOWN THE CAPITOL – that’s all coming from a bad place which is less political and more swamp military, IMO.

cthulhu

It seems to be very fuzzy.

The world would be a better place if every non-military person receiving a Federal paycheck inside the beltway were eliminated tomorrow, counting CIA, Pentagon, and NSA as “within the beltway”. Yeah, we’d lose a couple of dozen Patriots — and hundreds of thousands of scum.

You’re drawing a line in fog.

A Constitutionally-restrained Federal government, limited to Enumerated Powers, is the solution. Leviathan is the Enemy. MIC is just a mask.

TradeBait2

Agree. Convention of States is the only path forward to restore what has been lost. We the People being the determiners of what the federal government has power over within the republic’s legal and constitutionally granted constraints. Barring that, America will never be “united” in anything ever again.

Life cycle of all things is in play. America is sliding toward the dead dog stage. To return to growth and/or maturity it must realign with its doctrinally sound roots.

What was the cost to establish them? Intelligence, divine guidance, commitment, blood, and capital.

This is the video of the Ashli Babbitt “incident” – frame by frame.

Jayden X is John Sullivan.

Then there’s a kid that’s called out by name more than once, Tayler Hansen – he’s the REPORTER from Gateway Pundit that wrote all the Babbitt articles. Even the nonsense about the memorial service. THE REPORTER WAS ON THE SCENE OF THE INCIDENT, and appears on-screen at the end of the video in a BLM hoodie.

So what’s the real story with Gateway Pundit?

Last edited 3 years ago by Gingersmom2009
Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

OK, I did a deep dive on this. It’s totally a conspiracy, but it’s a REAL one with layers of deception of the participants. Such conspiracies are FILLED with deceived and partially informed participants who are manipulated into playing their parts.

(1) it’s not a “BLM” hoodie – it’s “Baby Lives Matter”, which is Tayler Hansen’s own pet organization.

(2) everything about him is authentic right wing, IMO – his anti-ANTIFA coverage, his antiabortion activism – if he’s anything, it’s “unknowing controlled opposition”.

(3) Hoft isn’t really part of this, other than being very loose with his reporters, which is IMO why they picked Tayler Hansen to be a chump.

(4) Hansen has hinted at “big stories” that tell me he’s very manipulable by that kind of con job, frequently used against self-styled journalists.

(5) He seems manipulated to me. He investigated what was in her backpack and published it – very likely as part of confronting the accusation that she fell back on her backpack, which had her coat and some other clothing item in it. That was indeed perfect for breaking her fall, but he did his story from the point of view of defending her and saying it was “just” those things – no reason to kill her.

(6) Everything tells me this guy was manipulated to help sell the story. He is likely even some kind of MK job, just because “Air Force” (Ashli).

Gingersmom2009

Thanks for the hoodie info — I did know about Baby Lives, but did not make the connection. Dumb.

Gingersmom2009

I tried to edit my other comment but ran out of time.

So you don’t think Hansen was “in on” the Babbitt event, just wound up there with this select group of people, like perhaps he followed Sullivan? And he bought the whole thing and ran with it? I remember seeing that he wrote the “memorial service” article – he was there and posted pics of himself with her family.

I haven’t watched this video in a couple of weeks, but will again. But I know my opinion of this being a “performance” won’t change. A person gets shot in the neck and there’s no blood anywhere? Mowed down at close range, a few feet away, and there’s no simultaneous panic/flight reaction from the crowd? She falls at their feet, they’re completely boxed in and no one takes cover. Right.

So what’s with Hoft? It doesn’t look like a performance to him?

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Oh, I think Hansen is “in on it”, but there are 1000 ways that the PHONY insider information could be total BS to manipulate him. The beauty of the Ashli Babbitt operation is that it can be sold multiple ways to a guy like Hansen.

In my opinion, he got “white hat” (hardly) information to make sure he was there, and that he maxxed out on the outrage, etc.

Some of the people there are clearly knowledgeable that it’s PHONY, but the phony op can be sold two ways to get KNOWING buy-in:

(1) we have to stop Trump because BAD TRUMP – anything else we say is COVER.

(2) it’s all part of the “plan” to help GOOD TRUMP – anything else we say is COVER.

The second one has a lot of really great story potential. I can come up with MILLIONS of lies to support it. All these people are going to want to believe them. My bad side has to be beaten down not to be tempted by the logical wonder of how badly people could be manipulated by that stuff.

They can march an army of chumps through that logic and nobody will be the wiser.

However, those aren’t the only things that might work here. I get the impression that Hansen is a true believer on this – probably with some help – and he will overlook inconsistencies to stick to his story of SAINT ASHLI.

In my opinion, he and she are both MK jobs using the really good stuff they have now. I have no idea if she is alive or dead, because I have no idea how they really played this.

Now here is the deal with Hoft, IMO. He’s a personality a lot like Drudge (gay pundit, obsessive digger), but as a gay, he is ALWAYS loyal to the tribe at some level, even enemies. He has backed some young gay reporters of questionable value, IMO. I don’t know if Hansen is one, but even if he’s straight, Hoft is a “good boss” for young reporters of any stripe, and he puts his people first, IMO, over ruthless competition. Hoft has a brother who also doesn’t fire at 100% quality, but has gotten some GREAT stories, and that’s part of the personality, too. Hoft is a good guy, my gut says.

I think Hoft is simply trusting the reporter, in the absence of more clear information about things. I think that if a different reporter came in with an Ashli Babbitt conspiracy story that had legs, Hoft would absolutely make the editorial decision to run with it, and let whoever wants to turn in their resignation, take their marbles, and leave, do exactly that.

I respect that logic, personally.  😅 

Gingersmom2009

Wow, thanks for the effort that went into the reply. And the info on Hoft.

Lin Wood
I have been attacked, ridiculed, threatened, smeared, and belittled simply because I revealed very serious accusations against Chief Justice John Roberts and former VP Mike Pence made by a credible whistleblower with whom I spent several days. 

I felt that the whistleblower was credible (i.e., believable) and his accusations needed to be investigated to establish whether they are true. 

I would do the same thing over again even knowing the heat I have taken for doing so. We must investigate credible accusations of corruption against our government officials. 

Remember the enemy attacks the messenger, especially when the enemy cannot attack the message because the message is true. 

I have no plans to ask President Trump to endorse my candidacy for Chair of the South Carolina Republican Party.

I know, as I believe President Trump would recognize, that if he endorses me, he would be attacked for endorsing the messenger of the whistleblower’s accusations against Roberts and Pence as if he had been the messenger instead of me. 

I do not want President Trump involved in this issue. He has enough on his plate with which to deal based on lies and misrepresentations by the propaganda media against him. 

I am totally comfortable with allowing time to have a law enforcement investigation prove whether the whistleblower’s accusations are true and until that time comes, I am willing to continue to take the heat. 

Of course, in order to make that determination, some entity must conduct a thorough investigation which has NOT been done yet. 

I guess another option would be to get to the truth in a defamation case filed against me as the republisher of the accusations of the whistleblower. The original publisher – the whistleblower – could also be sued for defamation. 

So far, Roberts and Pence have not sued, or threatened to sue, me or the whistleblower. We have not even received a retraction demand claiming the accusations are false. 

Just sayin.’

The DoJ checked with the FIB, and they confirmed to each other that neither was aware of the accusations made against Pence and Roberts, and had no intention of becoming aware of any such accusations, even if the accusations were duct taped to their foreheads on live television.

IMO, it’s not matter of if they fill fudge the numbers, but how. Will they claim that the vaccination is higher than it actually is in order to isolate people and make them believe that they’re the only ones holding out? Or will they falsely claim that the vaccination rates are low in order to keep the lockdown and punishment psy-op going? Either way, I don’t trust the numbers they’re reporting.

Quite often, people quote numbers as *fact*, when – in fact (lol) – the real fact is that the numbers are what the issuer reported.

Skipping over entirely the possibility / probability that the source of the numbers may be misrepresenting.

Like the “500K+” deaths attributed (fraudulently, IMO) to this mysterious Covid-thingy.

The enemedia does this every day, when speculating why someone said or did something.

There are so many people I know who are refusing this thing. I do not believe that the vaccination numbers are high.

I got a letter from my county health department yesterday that was asking me to file “Intent to Vaccinate” so they could schedule me when my “phase” comes up. They just don’t have enough vaccine for “demand,” you know.

I think this is just another manipulation technique. It’s “scarce,” so more “desirable.” Marketing 101.

“You are now *eligible* for the vaccine!”

Same thing … like “pre-approved” in sales spiels.

Aubergine

Yes, ma’am!

But used car salesmen don’t impress me one bit!

Emeraldstar

Yes *sir*, if you please, madam.

Don’t worry! It’s happened often enough that it hardly fazes me now.

When I chose my handle, I didn’t think at all about how the name “Emerald” – almost always feminine – was a confusing choice.

I’ve thought of changing it to “Sir Emeraldstar”, but I’m not sure the hassle is worth it (must I get a new e-mail? et al.)

Aubergine

Oh, no! Lol.

Why I assumed you were female really is psychological. “Emerald” does it.

So sorry!

Emeraldstar

No problem – like I said, it’s happened before.

I took an intensive astronomy course years ago, and learned that “green” stars are the rarest color visible stars in the universe (so there’s a bit of conceit on my my part in choosing the handle – oh well!).

But these stars produce *emitted* light, whereas the color “green” implies *reflected” light.

So, using my own nomenclature, I use “ruby” instead of “red”, to re-name “red giants”, and “diamond” instead of white, for “white dwarf” stars (leaving aside the difference between “white” and “clear”, vis-a-vis diamonds).

Steve responded when I gave that explanation, and relayed that he was unable to find an example of an “emerald” star.

So – they are RARE indeed!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I did eventually find one, and it turns out that whether it truly is green is one of those “the dress” sorts of things. Some see green, others think they’re nuts, the people who see green return the favor to those who don’t. (The one I found was Beta Lyrae.)

Green is certainly not an expected color in the black body radiation sequence (which most stars fit). I’d expect that a green color would be imparted by intervening dust/gas.

Wikipedia (article on “green star”) flat-out says no such thing <i>actually</i> exists. For what it’s worth.

Emeraldstar

[ To Steve ]

The professor explained it to us by saying that the “blue” and “red” “forces” (dumbing it down a bit for the general audience) must exactly match one another, so as to cancel each other out.

That is, their spectra must be near-ideal mirror-images of one another.

By implication, all that’s left (visible) is green.

Or, “emerald”.

Thanks for looking into it, Steve – I’ll check out Beta Lyrae.

But that green / emerald comet a couple years back serves pretty well as a substitute!

And I’ll take your Wikipedia citation as potential confirmation of my point. 🙂

You ain’t into that “straing thee-ree”, are ye?

Say “The first guy who came around with the vaccine wanted to double up on his own shots, so I let him have mine for $20.

I am feeling generous today, and you look like you could use it, so you can have this one for $15.”

If everyone else gets vaccinated, then they won’t be able to catch the Covid.

And if they can’t catch it, then there won’t be anyone who can give the Covid to the last holdout.

So clearly, the best thing to do, is to be the last holdout, and there won’t be any reason for you to get the vaxx.

Or to put it a little more competitively, last holdout wins! 👍 😁

Good morning, God’s Peace and All Blessings and many thanks to Wolf Moon, Wheatie, Deplorable Patriot, Bakocarl, Grandma in Texas – all Authors and all QTreepers – for your faithfulness to seek truth and to pray. 

What a joy and blessing you are as you hold the line for Christ, the Scriptures and the US Constitution!

As we contemplate this day in history – NEVER, ever forgetJesus did not hedge or deny His purpose or His Divinity – and one time that He said I AM – it was so powerful that it knocked the Temple Soldiers, who had come to arrest him, to the ground!

John 18:4-6
“Jesus, knowing all that was going to happen to him, went out and asked them, “Who is it you want?”
They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.
As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.”

Doctors Send Probing Open Letter To European Medicines Agency
Published on April 1, 2021

[ This is near the end of the the article as it was too long to post ]

NOTICE

For the avoidance of doubt, if your regulatory body does not immediately suspend its “emergency” recommendation of potentially dangerous inadequately tested gene-based “vaccines”, while the matters which we have highlighted to you are properly investigated, we hereby put the European Medicines Agency on notice of being complicit in medical experimentation, in violation of the Nuremberg Code, which thereby constitutes the commission of crimes against humanity.

Furthermore, it is your duty as a regulatory body to ensure that all doctors worldwide are advised that they are taking part in medical experimentation via “vaccination” programmes, whether wittingly or unwittingly, with all the legal and ethical obligations that such involvement entails.

This email is copied to the lawyer Reiner Fuellmich. It is also copied to Charles Michel, President of the Council of Europe, and to Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission.

Yours faithfully,
Doctors for Covid Ethics

Italy makes COVID-19 vaccine mandatory for all health workers

“ROME (Reuters) – All health workers in Italy must have coronavirus jabs, the government said on Wednesday, in a potentially controversial move aimed at protecting vulnerable patients and pushing back against ‘no-vax’ sentiment.

“Italy has an entrenched anti-vaccination movement and the recent discovery of clusters in hospitals after staff refused to have shots has sparked outcry in a country where more than 109,000 people have died of the disease.

“However government critics have questioned the legality of forcing only some categories of workers into having a vaccine.

“Wednesday’s decree approved by Prime Minister Mario Draghi’s cabinet says health workers, including pharmacists, “are required to undergo vaccination”. Those who refuse could be suspended without pay for the rest of the year.

““The aim of the measure is to protect as much as possible both medical and paramedical staff and those who are in environments that may be more exposed to the risk of infection,” the government said in a statement.

“The decree also introduces legal protection for those who administer the shots, a measure doctors and nurses had demanded after medics were placed under investigation for manslaughter following the death of a vaccinated man in Sicily.”

The label “anti-vax” really pi$$es me off. It’s a psy-op meant to shame those who question the narrative that vaccines are good.

I don’t believe it anymore.

wheatietoo

Yes…shame and ridicule.

I am not against vaccines as a concept — I am against bad vaccines.

One has to question the motives of anyone who would be pushing bad vaccines.

Which begs the question: how many vaccines are actually good?

When that question is answered, I’ll relinquish skepticism.

Until then, “shots” are all about virtue signaling and control.

I have a feeling the vast majority of people are being injected with saline. I figured there had to be placeboes somewhere in the experimentation, but a whistleblower thread yesterday claims it’s more widespread than just a control group.

Gingersmom2009

If I could be guaranteed saline I’d sign right up. Then just continue with the HCQ. 👍🏻

(At the end of this month I will have been on HCQ prophylaxis for a year.)

I am not sure after my son told me about what blood type one has might be what reaction one has. My husband and two sons have blood type O and have no problem with vaccines in general. Both my boys had the covid vaccines one Moderna one Pfizer neither had a problem.
My husband never had problems with flu vaccine but I have. My son told me I would have a problem if I got Covid because of blood type A. We , my husband and I believe we had Covid early on he got over it in three days I lingered with symptoms for months. I have no underlying conditions my husband has.
A neighbor about 36-38 got the Moderna vaccine and was really sick still after a week it kept coming back even when he thought he was better. He is fit healthy no health problems and still the second shot wiped him out.

I believe he’s talking about the COVID vaccines, rather than vaccines in general (which is what DP was talking about, I think).

I believe DP was referencing johnheretohelp’s tweets about COVID vaccine placebos. Zelenko is also talking about COVID vax.

“Anti Vaxxer” (or however you want to spell it) should be a term reserved for those who (unlike you) are opposed to vaccines as a concept.

My attitude towards THAT is somewhat better than my attitude towards flat-earther-ism, but only somewhat.

But I will defend such peoples’ right not to be vaccinated.

Of course they’ll try to paint covid vaccine skeptics with that “Anti Vaxxer” brush. If they try to paint ME with it I can tell them how many shots I cheerfully took (even though none were required) before I took a trip overseas.

BIDEN’S MASSIVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT PIPELINE EXPOSED!15 hours ago

https://forbiddenknowledgetv.net/bidens-massive-illegal-immigrant-pipeline-exposed/

The United Nations’ “Network for Migration” is circumventing US law, dictating and implementing immigration policy worldwide without the consent of the citizens of the host countries. In the months of February and March, the UN facilitated the illegal migration of over 250,000 people across the US-Mexican border. Raul Ortiz, deputy chief of Border Patrol estimates that one million illegal immigrants will arrive in the US during 2021.

A recent Gallup poll found that 42 million people living in the 33 countries of Latin America and the Caribbean want to immigrate permanently to the US.

The UN migration networks are led by a coalition of UN agencies to implement the controversial “Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration” (or GCM) adopted by the UN and over 150 of its member states in December of 2018. The global agreement aims to facilitate more legal pathways for would-be immigrants seeking to re-settle in wealthier countries such as the US.

At the very beginning, like a week after the election, there was a link at thedonald.win I think where you could search the entire mail-in ballot database from PA, by date of birth. It also showed the county, when the ballot was requested/received/tallied. This was a big deal because there were ballots from people born as far back as 1890, and pages of them from 1920 – 1940. And all kinds of anomalies with ballots received the same day as requested, etc.

Of course this database, which I assume is supposed to be public information as the names weren’t listed, was immediately pulled.

“Fully vaccinated people may travel, CDC says”

That dreadful DeepState tool, DR. ROCHELLE WALENSKY, just issued a statement that fully-vaccinated persons MAY TRAVEL FREELY. The guidelines are based on “several newly released studies documenting the strong real-world effectiveness of coronavirus vaccines in protecting against infection and spread of the virus…”.
The CDC is also issuing “new guidelines” stating that fully vaccinated persons MAY GATHER FREELY with UN-vaccinated people indoors, such as with family members at “low risk” of catching the virus.
However, the CDC “new guidelines” also state that even fully vaccinated persons need to continue wearing a mask and do social distancing when in public.

The amount of half-truths, mixed with outright lies (either by choice or by omission) in this “statement” by the CDC is staggering.
My opinion: This CDC pronunciamento is to lay the groundwork for “allowing” We, The People to “have back” our God-given natural rights ONLY and WHEN 100% of us are “fully vaccinated”. There will be clamoring by the DemCommunists in Congress to get “laws” passed and/or EO’s written by RobberJoe’s handlers for him to sign, that will mandate full vaccination for any person who wants to hold a job, be with family, go to school, attend worship services, engage in commerce, buy food and services.

mollypitcher5

I don’t understand this.

People can travel freely right now. ( with a mask)
People can gather with others right now ( mask)

LOL, i was wanting comments on MY post. Any idea why they would want plasma from COVID survivors, but not from folks who were vaccinated? Why are antibody tests different for non-vaccinated vs vaccinated?

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

LOL! You see, that’s a bit of a HOOT of misdirection, to get the knee-jerk anti-vax crowd to protect an even BIGGER secret by making them jump at bullshit.

Allow me to explain.

The BS is that “there is something horrible and wrong with the vaccines in general” – which is unlikely to be true right now because of great scrutiny. They will pull of THAT stuff after the vaccines have been normalized, and they will do it SELECTIVELY, because that’s how they work.

Right now, the problem with the vaccines is that they’re not exactly immunity stars, if nature is still operating like normal.

The sad truth is that recovery from disease has traditionally given stronger and longer immunity than vaccines – it’s just not always SAFER immunity.

Thus, for childhood diseases that don’t kill kids, I’ve always been in favor of “just catch it”, which horrifies the OCD types who are PREYED ON by the industry to sell product that keeps people in their sterile pencilneck world of high profits and low morals.

SO – when they needed convalescent plasma, they got it from the people who were likely to have the BEST and MOST COMPLETE immunity – recoverees – but again – THEY CAN’T SAY THAT OUT LOUD and fear-monger for bucks.

Now – the “most complete” part is interesting. It gets back to core ideas about immunity. This will appear briefly in my next post. Fauci backtracked on variants because he tried to fearmonger on them, but in the process woke up questions about vaccine strategy – VALID QUESTIONS – and they sent that bastard into TIME OUT, where he has to write 100 times “we have variants covered, no problem, don’t worry”.

These people are EVIL ASSHOES.

Face to face with ISIS: The women of ISIS – Episode 3

Women in ISIS can be more zealous and aggressive than their male counterparts – a far cry from the stereotypical ISIS-bride victim often presented in the media.

During a five-episode series, Al Arabiya’s Rola al-Khatib met with ISIS fighters, women, and children, yet she says that her time with the women was the most violent, physically and psychologically.…

Covered in black and standing behind a fence, the women spoke to Al Arabiya about their ideology, which the Civilian Administration says they still follow.

One of them said: “The creed that is planted here won’t be removed by anyone. Not Trump, nor America, nor the Jews, nor the infidels … no one.”

She added: “This creed is also planted in our children.”
The ISIS women stoned the filming team after the interviews had been conducted, causing them to leave the camp earlier than they had planned.

Among them, there are Yazidi women, previous ISIS sex slaves, who are afraid to identify themselves to the forces for fear of repercussions from the ISIS women, according to the SDF.…

Sidney Powell has stated not to interpret her quietness for inaction and now the proof is in the headlines. As Sidney plays her Art of War Game in cunning style, the Dominion operatives are at a check mate! 

Dominion was hoping for a win, a stale mate at worse but now the defining moment of show us what you got is now set before them. How? While the Dominion strategy was to accuse the accuser, and doing this by seeking a defamation lawsuit at the Attorney representing America’s laws and constitution for ‘WE THE PEOPLE’, i.e. Sidney Powell (and others) in an effort to hide their participation in the teasonous election fraud. Sidney turned their strategy upside down by moving to dismiss the case. Dominion had charged Powell with making “wild accusations” and “outlandish claims” about their company, thereby defaming them. These same claims could only be verified using data from Dominion via a pre-trial discovery process and argued in court, something Dominion definitely does not want to do.

Not dissimilar to the way Tom Clancy and Isaac Asimov somehow wrote books for years after they died. Though in Asimov’s case it’s at least plausible (he wrote hundreds of books while still breathing; a little thing like being dead would hardly slow him down).

I wonder if Rush authorized this. I know he planned for his passing. I understand what you’re saying but also think some people might find it comforting to hear his voice, and that his words of wisdom might be beneficial. I used to hear clips from Paul Harvey on the radio long after he had passed. But one option would have been to have a break for mourning, with the understanding that people would still be able to hear Rush in his own words in the near future.

Not making sense to me. If the officer was injured from the crash or the knife, why wouldn’t they say so? Instead you just hear he’s dead. TGP article has multiple news reports of 3 shot, 2 cops and suspect. They just held news conference and did not clarify cause of death. Were cops hit by friendly fire??

Noah Green Identified: Suspect Killed in Capitol Car Attack (mediaite.com)

Law enforcement officials told NBC News reporter Pete Williams that Green, who was from Indiana but may have had ties to Virginia, said on his Facebook that he was a follower of the Nation of Islam.

Police reviewed Green’s Facebook page, where he said he had recently lost his job and was looking for spiritual guidance.
A Facebook page matching the description from NBC News was reviewed by Mediaite before it was deleted by the platform.
On it, Green posted frequently about his support for Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.

Concerned Virginian

This Noah Green was a member of the Nation of Islam.
He gave $1085. to them in February as a “gift” for their “Saviour’s Day” celebration (the birthday of Elijah Muhammad, founder of NOI).
Unless proven otherwise, Noah Green was performing PERSONAL JIHAD with his car; and he no doubt planned to die as “suicide by cop”, since this would, according to Islam, guarantee him a high place with Allah.
But this part of the story won’t be carried by the lying MSM.

Sadly the left has made a war between Patriots and others. They are waiting for us to make a false move that fits their narrative that we are the domestic terrorists.
Never lets forget it was the FBI Wray who coined the Patriots as domestic terrorists not Antifa not BLM. Let that sink in he in essence admitted without realizing it that the destructive gang of Antifa and BLM are the militia of the left not to be touched.

And that doesn’t wash because when the stories and videos of him riding his bike first came out a few weeks ago, he never set the record straight about not riding the bike the full way. He allowed the deceit to be accepted as fact, so he has zero credibility on this issue.

April 1, 2021VIRULENT New Strain of COVID Discovered in MYANMAR
Yangon, Myanmar (Reuters) — Researchers at the King Tharrawaddy Virological Institute in Yangon have discovered a new variant of the COVID virus which they say is more virulent and possibly far more deadly than any earlier variants, even the British one.…

Under the new Tier 5 restrictions, residents may only leave their bedrooms to go to the lavatory or get food from the kitchen, and must be back behind a closed bedroom door within three minutes. Using new powers granted them by the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill, police will monitor citizens’ compliance using drones, thermal imaging, and microbots inserted through mail slots or under doors to surveil the interiors of homes.

Yep – April Fool’s joke. However, much like the Bee, so close to the truth because the left is just this absurd!

“Epidemiologists who have studied the new virus say that the following characteristics are to be expected:

  •    Symptoms of COVID-21 may include: high fever, coughing, sneezing, wheezing, eructation, bowel stoppage, bleeding through pores in the skin, and sudden fractures of bones in the chest, hips, and legs.
  •    The virus may propagate via earth, air, fire, water, tree sap, motor oil, and magma.
  •    Individuals may spread it by coughing, sneezing, talking, singing, exhaling, or looking at one another.
  •    Virus particles may linger on surfaces and remain viable for up to nineteen years.
  •    Standard hand sanitizers, whose active ingredient is ethyl alcohol, will be ineffective against COVID-21. New sanitizers containing acetone or toluene will be required, although a buffer for them that would limit skin damage has yet to be devised.
  •    A person may be infected with the COVID-21 virus and remain symptomless and unaware of the infection, but the virus has the capacity to encyst itself in the spleen, lungs, or bone marrow, and then re-emerge years or decades later to ravage the body and cause disability or death.
  •   The wearing of at least six (6) layered N-95 masks will be required.
  •       A social distance of at least seven (7) meters [23 feet] between individuals must be maintained at all times.”

Sacrificing Liberty for Fear
[…] But what happens when the quacks are efficacious, and the conspiracies are true?

Well, that’s where cancel culture comes in. If banning and censorship are enforced, truth becomes irrelevant. So the Washington Pravda and the New York Izvestia along with the CNN Beobachter pump out spin and fakery without ever needing to stop and consider what they are really doing.

Thus the real battle is over intellectual bigotry…

They believe that because they consider themselves intellectually and morally superior, they have the right to thrust their (political) religion down everybody else’s throats.

What really is the difference between the Islamic concept of Jihad, and rampant wokism? Not much; they are both political religions of hate and death whose adherents cannot abide any form of doubt or dissent.…

Liberty is something very precious. We should be very careful about giving up liberty for fear of something. The Islamic Jihad continues despite the Patriot Act. Viral illness will not go away despite vaccines, facemasks and lockdowns. The real enemy of liberty is greed, and rampant politicians who have forgotten (or just don’t care about) their oaths of office, or care more about lining their pockets (or those of their close family members).

To swear upon a bible that one does not believe in is a charade; better to make a politician swear an oath to ‘We the people’, one he/she can be held accountable for in a court of law. President Biden just got the maximum four Pinocchios from WaPo — surely an impeachable offence!

Deplorable Patriot

For some things, I don’t mind, but after DECADES of being in a choir somewhere, let alone a cantor, for all of this, being sidelined not by illness or the year I took off just to rest, this is REALLY hard to swallow. I mean, I spent tens of thousands of dollars over 35+ years developing and maintaining my voice, and this priest says it’s too operatic for him. My gig downtown, the regular cantor is back in town. I’ll be there tomorrow and Sunday, but, I’m, like, feeling under utilized.

RF121

Sarah Brightman falls in to too operatic for me. Not that I listen to much opera. My wife did drag me to see The Phantom of the Opera in Los Angeles so that is my live experience. Was not on the bucket list but I checked it off anyway. So we all have our tastes. I don’t like country much either so there is that.

RF121

I would put Whitney Houston in that category. Without the bellowy opera style.

Deplorable Patriot

Sarah Brightman? She’s not really an opera singer. Renee Fleming, Christine Brewer, Debbie Voight…okay, so they’re the big time. All of them can sing Sarah Brightman under a table.

RF121

Maybe. But I like most in the casual music world never heard of them. But I had listened to Sarah and do know who she is.

I’m so old that way back when I was still living in North-ish Jersey I got to sit up high above the stage at the Met to see Beverly Sills’ debut in 1975. Siege of Corinth, also Shirley Verrett and I forget who the baritone was. A friend’s husband worked lights there for years. I can’t remember the opera itself apart from Sills laughing and socializing during intermission with some friends who came, bouncing their baby around and eating an apple. 😄

Remember when Sarah Brightman did that inaugural recording of the Lloyd Webber Requiem, with Domingo and the treble Paul Miles-Kingston? Everyone remembers the duet, and it was overdone – but if you have the right soloists, and reverb, bring the choir in at “Agnus Dei” and don’t drag the tempo, it’s actually lovely.

Deplorable Patriot

I know I’m appreciated by many, it’s just that there’s more singers than opportunity right now.

TheseTruths

Too operatic? Unless there are guidelines for how the church wants the singing to be done (less vibrato, or something) — which you would no doubt be following anyway — then I tend to think the priest is not appreciating what he has. I’ve sat through WAY too many bad church music performances that distract from the message to fail to appreciate a singer who knows what they’re doing. It’s a gift to have someone like that participate.

cthulhu

Most of “operatic” means “clear”, “distinct”, and “able to fill a hall”. You might ask him as to which part he doesn’t like, ’cause you could always mumble, slur, or sing for the front row.

Deplorable Patriot

The part he doesn’t like is it takes attention away from him. It’s not hard. That and he doesn’t stick to the rhythm on the page and I do.

bflyjesusgrl 🍊 😎NUCLEAR MAGA😎

At my last church, when cringy singer was up, I finally started exiting the Sanctuary. It just plain flat hurt my ears and I needed no more added pain in my life. If you’re unable to exit, can you at least smuggle earbuds and listen to something else during painful performance?

Deplorable Patriot

Not really the way we are supposed to assist at Mass and the other Liturgies.

bflyjesusgrl 🍊 😎NUCLEAR MAGA😎

I know, but some of those sounds can damage your hearing. Saving that should be more important, especially for you. I neglected to mention that I was a member of the AV team at the time and was supposed to be supporting cringy singer. Everyone knew I couldn’t take it and didn’t fault me a bit. 😂

Deplorable Patriot

I’m more in danger of hearing loss due to standing in front of pipe organs and behind percussion and horns. When I was in Symphony Chorus, we wore earplugs for some performances. In my Fellowship of the Ring score, I literally wrote “earplugs in” “earplugs out” in places. I was less than three feet from a number of drums, and not the timpani. Same with “The Matrix” and Mahler 2. That performance, the percussion principal went backstage and brought out handfuls of earplugs and handed them to the soprano section. He was adamant we all use them.

cthulhu

My grandfather used to tune and repair pipe organs, and he’d frequently take his kids along — which, of course, bored them to tears. So they’d wander around in the churches or auditoriums and poke around.

On one occasion, my uncle was wandering around inside a pipe gallery while my grandfather laid crossways along the pedalboard checking voltages under the lowest manual, when my grandfather’s elbow accidentally hit the “SFORZANDO” button.

Gingersmom2009

OMG There it is, the culprit. Very easy to locate. 😂

http://www.n8rrb.com/pipeorgans/stalbansec/IMG_8588_1.jpg

cthulhu

Yeah, with your elbow. My uncle would bring that up ALL the TIME, 30-40 years later.

Oddly enough, at the time my gramps was living in San Diego, he had the console for THAT VERY ORGAN in his garage (despite the family history of it being in West Virginia). When they decided to dismantle the actual pipe organ and install an electronic substitute, they called him up and offered it to him if he would just get it out of there. He used to joke about scrapping the rest of the console, but carefully cutting out the panel with the Sforz button in it, framing it, and giving it to my uncle.

singingsoul1

nice story

cthulhu

Actually, it’s kind of a scary sort of industrial accident….except that everyone was physically ok soon afterward.

singingsoul1

Oh good.
I love organ music and am always astounded how gifted people play on old organs. Seems they need more than two fee and two hands. I knew a person who played she enjoyed every bid of it. She also had a fantastic voice and sang in church when not playing the organ. She made a choice raising a family instead being a professional singer.

cthulhu

There are so many beautiful peculiarities to pipe organs. Tiny things, like how some pipes do a tiny “chuff” before they fix on pitch, and how different manuals (keyboards in a console) will control different pipe galleries, so you can have one part of a church sing a duet with another part.

And, then, there are the German Positiv organs — no electric switching, there is a physical link between the key pressed and the air valve for the pipe! The more pipes, the more effort needed to push down a key. Some times, a pedal might require almost ten pounds to press. When Bach has a “toccata and fugue”, the “toccata” is a “touch piece” — it actually shows off the physical strength brought to the organist’s artistry.

cthulhu

Take….

….around 1:56, it goes into a series of multi-pipe chords, that on a ‘positiv’ organ would require real effort. Previous tweedling around on a single set of pipes was “OK, I can run a pipe organ….”, but this shifts into granny low and says, “…like a BOSS!”

singingsoul1

Thank you for the education you are offering to us. I knew nothing and and now you enriched my knowledge 🙂 I like this forum with all the brilliant minds 🙂
Yes I have seen the organist have a real workout playing. When I was in Scotland I heard the most wonderful organ concerts.

cthulhu

It was probably not much louder than a typical rock concert. The kind where you are sort of deaf until the afternoon of the next day.

cthulhu

It’s fun to have someone actually understand what I’m talking about with this!

cthulhu

For those people unfamiliar with pipe organs, pipe galleries are heavily insulated rooms with soundproof doors. They are rather sparsely furnished, containing mainly “wind chests” — which are plain wooden boxes with holes in their tops. The pipes sit into the holes. When the organ is on, the air in the wind chests is at pressure.

The valves that turn pipes on or off do just that — there is no way to turn one on halfway. Everything inside a pipe gallery is always at full volume. The volume control on the left edge of the above photo would open or close shutters on the face of the pipe gallery facing into the listening space.

Gingersmom2009

In addition to teaching public school music I was an organist for 40+ years, many with my husband directing the choir. I actually have a performance degree, had to do 5 years to add the teaching credentials. So yup, I know everything you’re speaking of. 👍🏻

cthulhu

Please feel free to jump in and make corrections! So much of this is my memories with my grandfather.

Deplorable Patriot

Most people would faint at the thought of sitting in front of a five manual console with over 100 ranks on the peg boards.

I’ve known people who could make the thing sit up and beg.

cthulhu

The button in the photo is labelled “tutti”, but is the same thing. If you hit that button and hit a “C”, then every C pipe in every gallery in every octave plays a C. If you’re laying across a pedalboard (presumably across the white pedals), and hit that button, you play CDEFGAB on every pipeset in every gallery in every octave (this would be a great test to see if you could sell a blower upgrade if you didn’t have a small boy wandering around inside).

Gingersmom2009

Yes, and set apart from duplicates of the pedal pistons, generals or couplers.

cthulhu

Good guy.

cthulhu

Incidentally, all the pipes you can see while sitting in the audience are most likely fake. The real ones are behind the shutters which are behind the fake ones.

Sadie Slays

It’s not wrong. I’d be pissed, too.

The [DS]/[CB] infrastructure plan is failing before it begins, people are beginning to realize that this is not about the infrastructure and more about payoffs, climate funding and taxes, everything the people do not want. Trump’s economy has taken off since states and business opened. The [CB] now sees Crypto as a threat. The [DS]/MSM are going down the path that the patriots laid out for them. Lurking in the background is election fraud, Durham and other triggers. Trump is letting the people see first hand how bad it can get. The people are reaching the precipice. The power to the people will be returning, the legislatures are now implementing laws that will safeguard the elections. Flynn says all those people running in 2024 can forget about it, think election fraud.

Once again…Coddled thugs get the breaks while Trump supporters treated like domestic terrorists.

The teens have reportedly pled the juvenile version of “not guilty.” 
“If you were to reach a plea agreement, then the juvenile would admit involvement,” said Lotze, who also said the agreement could include, “… potentially being in a youth shelter involvement, which is similar to a jail but for juveniles. Or could involve being on home detention or being on probation.”

Because home probation is the standard penalty for murder, if you’re a member of a protected class in our caste system.

As long as you’re not white.

If you’re white and you do something like these black teenage girls did, you get tried as an adult and get life without parole or the death penalty.

Because the corrupt State and the corrupt prosecution are the real RACISTS.

The protected class are democrats.

Its only been a few days and this is done? Home detention? That wouldn’t happen in CA unless theyd been locked up for a while already. Corruption. Those 2 deserve the fate of their victim.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everybody here, in a rare GOOD FRIDAY comment from the MAINTENANCE Department.

I went to bed last night this morning, utterly exhausted, and thinking rather poorly about our future. But this morning, I got up feeling bizarrely refreshed, having apparently resolved something in my dreams, and it just got better all day. I’m working on my next post, and it’s just all coming together. All day, every time I turn around, even in the shower, it’s just…..

Things don’t always happen when we want them to happen, but GOD IS GOOD, and when they DO happen, STAND BACK.

I wish I could actually vocalize where we are at right now, as I understand things, but I can tell you this. Some amazing stuff is coming.

God is saying “Hopium? Hopanyl? Hold your beers – there isn’t even a word for what I’m gonna show you.

It’s all good, people. Just HANG ON for the ride. The Kingdom of Heaven happens both THERE and HERE, AS PROMISED.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I suspect that having read completely both Carl’s post and yours, got me framed right, and then sleeping, I resolved some facts to a realization that things are now working for us more and more. There was also some “super-hopium OMG” realization mixed in there, but I actually forgot what it was – in part because I told myself at the time “no way you are going to give THAT to the enemy, bro – fuggedaboudit – no way do you post that. Just enjoy the ride.”

I was ready for whatever followed in terms of inspiration, which is rather hard to describe.

This is just a sign of serious push-back by our side – I like it. I know that Turning Point takes a lot of heat for being faux conservative, RINO, GOP Inc., GOPe, etc., but they have actually gotten some respectable bruises, AND

very important….

AND I feel like a lot of the criticism of Turning Point is rooted in a kind of weird psychology that the SOVIETS of all people successfully implanted in Americans during the 1970s, in which “uncool” was used to automatically nullify messages, and almost anything could be used to claim uncoolness, making in easy to label somebody or some organization as uncool to destroy their valid messages. It was a great way to get conservatives to eat their own.

GAB totally gets this, actually, because there are few ways for a small fry to fight this leftist psychology, other than being excruciatingly and knowingly “excessively uncool”. Which is PRECISELY why the left has managed to work the watchdogs of antisemitism up into a lather about Gab, and why the controlled opposition antisemites dragged all their pet real ones over there – to shut down one of the main threats to leftism’s total control of “cultural cool”.

It’s a GREAT FIGHT in the culture wars, and my angle in it is to make “Never Again” a core but extremely subtle part of emerging non-PC cool culture like it once was, where EVERYBODY had a stake in keeping socialist insanity at bay, and NOBODY had to be face-palm obvious about it. The small stuff was automagically self-cancelled, and the big stuff never arose. SANITY ensued.

WE CAN BE THERE AGAIN.

Trump Calls for Boycott of MLB, Coca-Cola, Delta Over Opposition to Georgia Election Reforms (theepochtimes.com)

Former President Donald Trump on April 2 urged people to boycott Major League Baseball (MLB), Coca-Cola, Delta, and other corporations which are openly opposing election reforms enacted by Republicans in Georgia.

“Baseball is already losing tremendous numbers of fans, and now they leave Atlanta with their All-Star Game because they are afraid of the Radical Left Democrats who do not want voter I.D., which is desperately needed, to have anything to do with our elections,” Trump wrote in a statement released by his Save America political action committee. “Boycott baseball and all of the woke companies that are interfering with Free and Fair Elections. Are you listening Coke, Delta, and all!”

MLB on Friday announced that it will move its All-Star game from Atlanta in protest of the election reform package passed by the state’s Republicans last month. MLB Commissioner Robert D. Manfred Jr. announced the move in a news release saying that the decision was the best way to “demonstrate our values as a sport.”
MLB, Coca-Cola, and Delta did not respond to requests for comment.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican, signed a package of election reforms into law last month which expanded voting hours and access to early voting. The new law also requires absentee voters to provide a copy of their ID alongside their ballot, something the state had already required for in-person voters.

Georgia was one of six states where Trump challenged the outcome of the 2020 election. That state ultimately certified President Joe Biden as the winner after several recounts. Trump claimed that the election in Georgia was tainted by fraud and was run by rules put in place through an unconstitutional process.

Minutes prior to the boycott message, the former president released a statement about election fraud.

“Why is it that every time the 2020 ELECTION FRAUD is discussed, the Fake News Media consistently states that such charges are baseless, unfounded, unwarranted, etc.? Sadly, there was massive fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election, and many very angry people understand that. With each passing day, and unfortunately for the Radical Left CRAZIES, more and more facts are coming out,” Trump said “Other than that, Happy Easter!”

Georgia’s election reforms have become the target of left-wing criticism, including false claims by Biden about the law requiring the polls to close by 5 p.m. The bill actually expanded the voting hours to 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Corporations including Delta Airlines and Coca-Cola joined the chorus, issuing statements from top executives criticizing the bill.

Biden said on March 31 that he would support the MLB moving the All-star game from Atlanta in response to the election reform legislation.
“I think that today’s professional athletes are acting incredibly responsibly. I would strongly support them doing that,” Biden said. “People look to them, they’re leaders. Look at what’s happened with the NBA as well. Look at what’s happened across the board. The people who’ve been victimized the most are the people who are the leaders in these various sports and it’s just not right.”

Kemp said it was “obvious” that neither Biden nor his advisers familiarized themselves with the content of the bill.
“It is obvious that neither President Biden nor his handlers have actually read SB 202, which I signed into law yesterday,” Kemp told The Epoch Times via email on March 27 referring to the bill by its legislative ID number. “This bill expands voting access, streamlines vote-counting procedures, and ensures election integrity.”

Folks, I know you are tired of hearing, “trust the plan.“ I heard it for the last two years and now I am ashamed that I listened to it. But that said, I am not bullshitting you when I tell you: we have the goods. We really do. We have cracked the code, we have deciphered the hieroglyphics, We not only know how it all works, we really do have the proof. Mike Lindell is telling the truth.

If this were a Chess match, I would say that we have spotted the checkmate combination, we have our opponent dead to rights, we just must play out the dozen moves in front of us. But in an intellectual sense, our opponent is vanquished. Now that is not to say that our opponent may not jump up and knock over the table, or pull out a shotgun, or play some other trick. But if we just play out the next dozen moves, he is finished.

Similarly, we have what we need to show this happened as we cleaned. We are adding and filling in holes and buffing out, but we have it. The goons on the other side may piss and moan and knock the table over or walk away or do all kinds of things. But at this point, the one thing they cannot do is let us play this game out and escape our winning combination.

scott467

“Now that is not to say that our opponent may not jump up and knock over the table, or pull out a shotgun, or play some other trick.”

_____________

Which is exactly what they will do, because whatever option is available, they will take it.

.

“But if we just play out the next dozen moves, he is finished.”

____________

Unless he pulls out a shotgun.

Which is why, from the beginning, the winning move was always to pull YOUR shotgun first.

We had the entire United States military…

.

“Similarly, we have what we need to show this happened as we cleaned. We are adding and filling in holes and buffing out, but we have it. The goons on the other side may piss and moan and knock the table over or walk away or do all kinds of things.”

___________

No ‘may’ about it.

Physical force is the end game.

It always was, has been, and will always be.

Nobody gives up power without force.

It is a Law of nature, and none of you pacifists can break it.

Or even understand it, apparently…

.

“But at this point, the one thing they cannot do is let us play this game out and escape our winning combination.”

___________

Right, so they won’t ever do that.

They will rely on force.

You better have a bigger and better force, or you lose.

Because all these games you’re playing don’t amount to a hill of beans when your opponent pulls a shotgun on your silly ^%$.

para59r

Bryne obviously agrees with you.

“But at this point, the one thing they cannot do is let us play this game out and escape our winning combination.”

scott467

Agreed, though it’s a strange way to say it, which has to be on purpose.

the one thing they cannot do is let us play this game out

So they won’t. That’s an important thing to understand, they’re not just going to roll over and say “oh no, you got me!”.

And they never were. Not at ‘this point’, or at any other — past, present or future.

So whatever the ‘plan’ is, it must necessarily take that reality into account. All the evidence in the world won’t make any difference. Evidence is great for building a case.

But when it comes time to prosecute — if such a time even exists as part of any ‘plan’ — the bad guys won’t just turn themselves in, you have to go get them.

And because the treasonous MSM was left completely intact, the MSM will provide them cover, all the way to the bitter end, and then past the bitter end.

Just like Baghdad Bob did.

And because the corrupt and treasonous FIB and DOJ were left complete intact, there won’t be anyone IN the government to investigate, arrest or prosecute anybody revealed to be a criminal by the ‘evidence’.

And because the corrupt and treasonous judiciary was left completely intact, there wouldn’t be any way to convict the traitors in the corrupt judicial system anyway.

Which means we’re right back where we started from.

It’s either military — arrest, prosecution, conviction — or bust.

cthulhu

They’ve ALREADY killed a bunch of people to further their schemes. How many more do they have to kill to convince people they wouldn’t shirk at murder?
