2021·11·27 Joe Biden Didn’t Win Daily Thread

Okay you knuckledragging ChiComs trying to take us down…here’s a history lesson for you.

For millennia, you had to suffer from this:

Yep. Steppe Nomads. They laid waste to your country, burned, raped and pillaged (but not in that order–they’re smarter than you are) for century after century.

You know who figured out how to take them on and win? The Russians.

Not you, the Russians. And it took them less than two centuries. And Oh By The Way they were among the most backward cultures in Europe at the time.

You couldn’t invent an alphabet, you couldn’t take care of barbarians on horseback, and you think you can take this board down?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! We’re laughing at you, you knuckledragging dehumanized communists…worshipers of a mass-murderer who killed sixty million people!

I mean, you still think Communism is a good idea even after having lived through it!

By my reckoning that makes you orders of magnitude more stupid than AOC, and that takes serious effort.

His Fraudulency

Joe Biteme, properly styled His Fraudulency, continues to infest the White House, and hopium is still being dispensed even as our military appears to have joined the political establishment in knuckling under to the fraud.

All realistic hope lies in the audits, and perhaps the Lindell lawsuit (that will depend on how honestly the system responds to the suit).

One can hope that all is not as it seems.

I’d love to feast on that crow.

Justice Must Be Done.

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

Political Science In Summation

It’s really just a matter of people who can’t be happy unless they control others…versus those who want to be left alone. The oldest conflict within mankind. Government is necessary, but government attracts the assholes (a highly technical term for the control freaks).

(A comment I wrote last week that garnered some praise.)

Lawyer Appeasement Section

OK now for the fine print.

This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines,  here, with an addendum on 20191110.

We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.

And remember Wheatie’s Rules:

1. No food fights
2. No running with scissors.
3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
4. Zeroth rule of gun safety: Don’t let the government get your guns.
5. Rule one of gun safety: The gun is always loaded.
5a. If you actually want the gun to be loaded, like because you’re checking out a bump in the night, then it’s empty.
6. Rule two of gun safety: Never point the gun at anything you’re not willing to destroy.
7. Rule three: Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to fire.
8. Rule the fourth: Be sure of your target and what is behind it.

(Hmm a few extras seem to have crept in.)

XXVII The Cosmic Microwave Background

You’re going to get TWO parts this week. Thanksgiving Bonus!

The year is 1948. Ralph Alpher (1921-2007) and Robert Herman (194-1997) were doing work in close relation to work being done by Alpher’s PhD thesis adviser, George Gamow (1904-1968). At the time astronomers were still arguing about whether there had been a Big Bang, a definite ‘beginning’ to what we see around us, or whether we were in a ‘Steady State’ universe, and it had always looked pretty much as it does now. Always, as in always, back forever.

[Incidentally, the work this is related to is even more important than what I’m talking about here…but it makes more sense to cover it later. And no, it won’t be in the other part this week.]

Neither side denied that galaxies appeared to be rushing apart, and that the further apart they appeared to be the greater their speed away from each other.

The Steady State folks hypothesized that as the distance between two “neighbor” galaxies, A and B doubled, enough matter was spontaneously generated–out of nothing–to form a new galaxy in between A & B. By the time this new galaxy, call it C, had formed, it would be at about the same distance from A as B had been earlier, and it would be moving away from A at the same speed that B had originally been moving. Meanwhile the universe was now eight times bigger in volume (but twice as “wide”) than it had been previously, but it would also have eight times as much matter in it. This takes a certain amount of time, call it the “doubling time”

This would be going on everywhere, all the time. And if the universe was of infinite extent…well, run the tape backwards. A “doubling time” before the present, the universe was half as big as it was. All distances were half as great.

But half of infinity is still infinity. So you could go backward in time infinitely far, and you’d still see a universe with about the same density of galaxies you see today. It would look the same.

Contrast that with the Big Bang version, where, if you run the tape backward, you are compressing the same amount of matter into smaller and smaller amounts of space. It should heat up.

Run the tape back far enough, say to when the universe was about 1/1000th of its current size, and the universe ought to be so hot that all of the matter in it (not just the matter in stars) is plasma–the electrons have been knocked completely off their atoms.

Plasma is opaque. Photons can’t get very far before hitting and being absorbed by electrons; the electrons, of course are jumping around in energy levels every time the collide with each other, and emitting photons that get nowhere.

This is why we can’t see into the Sun. There’s a layer below which everything is plasma, and if you were there (without being vaporized), you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face.

So imagine a time when the universe was at a temperature just above this point, and as it expands, the temperature drops.

Suddenly atoms form as electrons settle into orbitals and actually stay there, and the universe becomes transparent. There’s a crapload of high-temperature photons out there, and now they are free to run loose. And they ought to correspond to a temperature of roughly 3000 K.

And if this actually happened, they should still be running loose today. Can we detect them? If so, the Big Bang has a huge piece of evidence in its favor and Steady State is in big trouble.

That was the question Alpher and Herman asked. They did some calculations, and figured we should be able to see these photons today, but that they would now correspond to a temperature of 5 K. Which is microwaves, very much like what your microwave oven uses. Back then the technology to generate and detect them simply didn’t exist.

They then re-ran their calculations based on new values for the Hubble parameter a couple of years ago, and revised their estimate to 28 K. Then again back down to 5 K.

The Hubble parameter is notoriously difficult to measure.

This is the parameter that tells you, given how far away a galaxy is, how fast it appears to be receding. Modern values are close to 70 km/second, for every megaparsec of distance. But it wasn’t long ago that one group’s data said it was close to 50 and another group’s data indicated 100. Both groups insisted their data showed they had to be right, yet they couldn’t both be. As it turned out, neither was.

It’s called the Hubble parameter, by the way, because there’s no particular reason to suppose that it doesn’t change over time. In fact there’s a special symbol for its value today, H0. And it’s a project of modern cosmology to plot the value of H versus time back in the past. This will be a topic for another day.

Where we left off talking about cosmology, people were pretty much estimating distances to distant galaxies–galaxies so far away we couldn’t see their Cepheid variables–by simply measuring their redshift, turning that into a speed, then dividing by H0. Of course that assumes H always equals H0.

It’s important to point out (again) that this is not the same sort of red shift you get from, say, Smokey’s radar gun.

A radar gun bounces a very precisely tuned frequency of radar waves off of your car, and then measures the frequency of what bounces back. If your car is stationary, the return frequency is the same. If your car is moving towards Smokey, the return pulses will be slightly closer together. If you’ve passed Smokey and are moving away from him, the pulses are further apart.

You can compute the “red shift” like this: Subtract the frequency of the return signal from the frequency of the emitted signal (i.e., subtract what the radar gun sees coming back from your no-doubt-bright-red car, from what the radar gun sent out). Then divide by what was measured coming back.

z = (femitted – freturned) / freturned

That number is invariably labeled z.

If you do some algebra, simply dividing the frequency of what the radar gun sent out, by the frequency of what came back, should equal 1+z.

The redshift of different galaxies turns out to have a very different cause. Now this is going to seem a bit freakish, but in fact galaxies are pretty much stationary.

The space between them is actually expanding.

That makes no damn sense if you think about space and time like Isaac Newton did, absolutely rigid and fixed, but according to Einstein’s General Theory, space and time can curve and stretch, and they do. It’s difficult to wrap our minds around, but that’s what’s going on.

A photon bopping along at about 300 million hertz, three hundred million cycles a second, will have a wavelength about a meter long–because it travels three hundred million meters in that second.

If, while it’s travelling along, the space between galaxies doubles in size, then the photon’s waves stretch to be two meters long. It can’t travel any faster to make this up, so now its frequency is only 150 million cycles per second. This means the photon actually loses energy as the space it travels through expands.

If the photon happens to be visible light it has a much, much shorter wavelength (half of a millionth of a meter, for instance), but as it stretches it looks redder and redder because red wavelengths are longer than blue ones.

So the redshift of these photons is directly related to how much space has stretched since the photon was emitted. In fact, you can write the following: 1 + z = anow/athen. The two as are “scale factors” but what really matters is the ratio between them. If z is 1 for some photon, 1+z = 2, and the scale factor today is twice as big as it was then. The universe has doubled in size; space has, everywhere stretched to double its old size, since the photon was emitted.

OK, returning to Alpher and Herman.

There was some discussion of their idea of there being a microwave remnant of the Big Bang until about 1955, but cosmology wasn’t considered a very serious area of study back then. And we simply didn’t have the technology to detect it if it were there. So the notion was largely forgotten.

Until about 1964. In the early 1960s Yakov Zeldovich (1914-1987) found their work, and Robert Dicke (1916-1997) reinvented that particular wheel about the same time. In 1964, David Todd Wilkinson (1935-2002) and Peter Roll at Princeton University in New Jersey decided to start building something called a Dicke Radiometer to look for microwave rays coming from the sky.

Meanwhile, Just Down The Road

This is New Jersey we’re discussing here. The damn state is so small everyone in it can get into the same freaking food fight. And if I lived there in that anti-gun tyrrany, if anything worse than Kalifornia’s, I’d probably need a food fight to relieve the stress.

And they can’t run an honest election as well as a bunch of southerners in Virginia, which should chap their look-down-on-Bubba asses. But since it won’t chap their asses enough to suit me, I am going to insult them and tell “small state” jokes about them. I may visit someday, but I doubt I could fit my truck into the state.

But seriously, just a few miles down the road from Princeton, at Bell Labs, Arno Penzias (born 1933) and Robert Woodrow Wilson (born 1936), a couple of electrical engineers were building a microwave antenna to test the feasibility of using microwaves to transmit signals. Their particular antenna had a Dicke Radiometer in it.

Something was wrong, though. There was noise in the system, noise they couldn’t get rid of.

They were pretty sure the noise was in their equipment, because no matter which way they pointed that antenna, the noise was there. If it had been someone testing out their prototype microwave oven somewhere else in the state, they’d only have picked it up while the antenna was pointing towards it. But this was always there no matter which way they pointed the antenna.

They even shotgunned the pigeons who were building nests in their antenna, so that when they cleaned out the poop, it would stay clean. But even that didn’t work. Noise in their system.

Finally in desperation they called Princeton University to see if they knew anything.

They ended up talking to Dicke himself, and Dicke knew what was going on. What was going on was that their team had been scooped.

Penzias and Wilson had found, quite by accident, what we now call the Cosmic Microwave Background.

The “Big Bang Theory” (a bit of a misnomer) not only had accounted for the galaxies (apparently) moving further apart, it had made an actual prediction of a previously unknown phenomenon, and it had panned out.

Steady State was dead. The universe, at least in its present form, has a beginning. (One can ask “what was there before the Big Bang” and it’s a plausible question, though most think that that is when space time itself began, and that therefore there can be no “before,” it’s like asking what is north of the north pole.)

Penzias and Wilson won the 1978 Nobel Prize for Physics.

So this is what’s going on: Those 3000K photons now have been stretched by a factor of 1090. And their temperature is 2.725 K today.

NASA has launched two satellites to study this radiation in detail: COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer) and WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe. It was originally simply MAP, but after Wilkinson died of cancer, it was renamed in his honor). COBE, when it was launched, had been the second most elaborate satellite NASA had ever built–right after the Hubble Space Telescope.

Their charter was to measure the cosmic microwave background in every direction.

It turns out to be almost perfectly uniform–once you factor out the (regular) Doppler redshift/blueshift due to the Sun’s motion around the center of our galaxy, and the galaxy’s true motion towards the Hercules cluster. Uniform to 1 part in 100,000. This indicates that the universe, at the time it cooled and released all those photons to run free, was very, very smooth, much more so than it is today (the universe is now clumped into galaxies, which clump into clusters and superclusters). Back then a cubic light year of universe had some certain amount of matter and energy in it, and adjacent cubic light years might be different by 1/1000th of a percent.

If you’ve ever seen this picture:

…it’s the Cosmic Microwave Background…with very slight differences in temperature shown in different colors, with the contrast dialed way up. Every direction in the sky is represented somewhere in that ellipse.

Cosmologists have been able to learn a lot from this image. A lot of details of the big bang theory have yet to be worked out, however several possibilities have been decisively eliminated by this data. It has also been used to demonstrate that space is flat, or very nearly so.

It’s essentially blackbody radiation, so at any point, it should follow a very specific curve. Now usually when something like this is measured, it’s not quite a perfect blackbody, so the match to the curve isn’t precise. But COBE took some measurements, and when plotted against the curve, you see:

There’s no visible difference between the data in red, and the theory, in blue.

I understand that when this was presented at a scientific conference, there was a standing ovation because theory and data matched so perfectly.

Steady state was dead, face down in the Hudson River. Or the Delaware. Not sure which, doesn’t matter. It’s not as if those two rivers are more than 50 feet apart.

One thing that was learned had to do with the fact that the radiation is indeed so uniform.

It’s now thought that the universe was 380,000 years old when it became transparent, and that this is basically a picture of the universe at that moment. What is striking is that in the subsequent 13+ billion years, the microwaves from (say) the dead center of that ellipse are reaching us. 180 degrees away, near the left or right side of the diagram, those microwaves are now reaching us.

Those two locations still cannot see each other. They never could in the past, they don’t now. They have no way whatsoever of knowing each others’ state or affecting each other, not in the past and certainly not now.

So how is it that they’re the same temperature to one part in 100,000?

That is a question that has occupied astronomers for quite some time. There’s a likely (but not certain) answer to that question…but that’s for another day.

XXVIII Dark Matter

Not to be confused with “Dark Meat.”

Yes, I am writing this on Thanksgiving, so “white meat” and “dark meat” are on my mind. Having taken Steve’s Own Wonder Weight Loss Elixir early last week (somehow, no one is beating my door down trying to order some), I’m going to hang on to the conquered ground in my own personal Battle Of The Bulge. (Having gained that hill painfully, I don’t want to give it up.)

Newtonian gravitational theory is a marvel. I’d say that it was the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it long preceded sliced-at-the-bakery bread and the sliced bread doesn’t come close to beating it.

But–even aside from General Relativity tweaking it–there’s only so much you can do with it.

If there are exactly two bodies in the universe, say a planet orbiting a star, and they’re both uniform spheres (no oblateness, though they are allowed to vary with density with distance from the center), you can specify the position and velocity of each body at a certain time, call it t, and then you can simply plug some other time into a few formulae and know, immediately where those bodies are at that time. It can be before t or after t. It can be a second later, it can be ten billion years earlier. Plug-and-chuck, on a calculator (though you want at least a scientific calculator, not a four-banger that just has +, -, *, and / on it). The same procedure gets you the answer, in the same amount of time, no matter how different the times are.

Add a third body…even a dust mote ten billion miles away…and everything changes. Now in fact, you can ignore the dust mote. You probably didn’t measure the mass of the star and planet that accurately! But in essence, as soon as there are three (or more) bodies involved, you can’t just plug and chuck into a few formulae to predict things at at arbitrarily chosen future date.

A lot of mathematical work during the 18th and 19th centuries went into working out some special cases of the three body problem. For instance, if there is a small body orbiting a large body in a perfect circle, you can put a third body either 60 degrees ahead or 60 degrees behind the second body, on the same circle, travelling at the same speed. So the three bodies are at the points of a perfect equilateral triangle. It turns out that that situation is stable. In fact, it’s stable enough that even if the third body is slightly out of place, it will tend to move into place. There are a few other places you can put that third body…e.g., at a precisely balanced point between the other two bodies…but those are metastable; if it’s slightly off in positioning…by a zillionth of a meter…it will drift away from that point. The mathematician who worked this out was named Joseph-Louis Lagrange (1736-1813, he actually was born in what is now Italy as Giuseppe Luigi Lagrangia).

There are at least a million asteroids 60 degrees ahead and behind Jupiter, for instance, known as the Trojan asteroids because the first ones discovered were named after characters in the Illiad, and they’re liable to stay there forever or at least until something else wanders in and jerks them around or hits them.

But for the most part, the general “three body” problem is not solveable in “closed form” which is mathematician-speak for having a nice tidy equation or set of equations.

Our solar system, of course has a sun, eight planets, a shitload of asteroids in the “asteroid belt” between Mars and Jupiter, more asteroids orbiting right outside of Neptune’s orbit (including Pluto), and likely even more stuff way out there, 50,000 AUs or more. You can’t do two body stuff far into the future on, say, the Sun/Earth pair and expect it to be accurate. Jupiter is the main body perturbing things, but by no means the only one. All of these bodies are pulling on all of the other bodies, and the effects do add up.

NASA, of course, sends space probes to other planets, and in figuring out where they’re going to go, they have to account for the Earth, the Sun, and the destination planet. And if they do a flyby for “slingshot,” they’ll want to include the planets being slungshot off of (is that a word? It is now) as well. The good news is they can do something called “patched conics” where they ignore the sun and the destination while near the earth, both Earth and the destination (but not the sun!) while in transit, then just the destination while there. That’s not perfectly accurate, but it’s accurate enough to see if the mission is feasible.

But in general, to work a problem like this, you need numerical integration. You start out with everything in an initial state: their locations, their velocities, and of course their masses. You compute all the forces between every pair of objects, and you step forward some very, very small amount of time. Of course now thanks to those forces the velocities are now different, and because everything is moving, none of the positions are exactly the same as they were before. So at the new time (one step after the initial time), you have to recompute everything again, then take the next step. And over and over again.

The shorter the step, the more accurate it is, and there are other tricks you can use to increase accuracy. In grad school I wrote a three body integrator that used a method called “Adams-Bashforth.” I tested it by running a known two body problem through it (satellite in a circular orbit); when I got to a step size small enough where the accumulated errors were less than a millionth of a meter after a month, I figured it was accurate enough, and that computer spent a solid day cranking the thirty or so scenarios in my thesis. (It would have been about a month, but I had just plugged a co-processor into the motherboard. A good thing. I didn’t have a month.)

Nowadays, they can model two galaxies colliding with each other, with a million representative stars in each, and take movies of what happens. For instance, this is what’s going to happen when M31 in Andromeda collides with our galaxy in about five billion years. Stars are far enough apart that the two galaxies will probably pass right through each other with no head on collisions, but every star is pulling on every other star throughout the entire collision.

Andromeda Galaxy collides with our galaxy about five billion years from now. The point of view of the video seems to rotate which might make things a bit confusing (I hate it when they do that–I’ve seen it done in cases where it makes it impossible to understand the point the video is making).

Fortunately, it’s not always necessary to precisely know the fate of each individual body.

For centuries, astronomers have known about objects called “globular clusters.” These are compact groupings of stars, and they actually tend to be outside the galactic disk (but still be bound to the galaxy). There’s a swarm of these things accompanying the Milky Way, out in what is called the “galactic halo.”

M80 in Scorpius. A few hundred thousand stars, it’s about 30,000 light years away. That distance is roughly comparable to the distance to the center of the galaxy from here.

Modeling something like this precisely would be a pain, but you can make general statistical inferences without doing that, thanks to the virial theorem. (Not “viral”, “virial.”)

The virial theorem relates the average total kinetic energy of the cluster, over time, with the total potential energy. (It’s not just used for star clusters; it gets used for other sorts of systems as well.) You can measure the speeds of the individual stars (easy to do with Doppler shifts off their spectra), their distances from each other, and get some notion of the total energy of the system, as well as its total mass.

Of course, you could estimate the total mass by counting the number of stars and multiplying by the average mass of a star, but this will fail if some of the mass of the cluster is not visible for some reason or another. For instance, imagine if there is a lot of interstellar gas. Or a black hole. Or neutron stars that have long since stopped rotating and pulsing.

So, time now for a jarring change in perspective.

It’s 1933, and Fritz Zwicky (1898-1974) is studying a galactic cluster, in particular the Coma cluster in the constellation Coma Berenices. It has over a thousand galaxies in it, and is about 100 megaparsecs away (over 300 million light years). The individual members aren’t just stars, they’re entire galaxies. [Zwicky coined the term ‘supernova’ and built some of the very first jet engines, too.]

The Coma galactic cluster. Almost every smudge is a dwarf galaxy. Long wave infrared is red, short wave infrared is green. Visible light is as shown.

He concluded that there is far more mass in that cluster than just the obvious masses of all the stars in the galaxies in the cluster. In fact, he figured that what we could see shining as stars was 1/400th of the mass of the cluster

Zwicky coined the term ‘dark matter’ (actually, he was Swiss German, so he said ‘dunkle Materie’) to describe the 399/400ths of the stuff in the frame of the picture that cannot be seen.

Of course, there are obvious possible explanations for this. Interstellar and even intergalactic gas wouldn’t have been visible to Zwicky; neither would things like planetary-sized bodies and so on. So this became a bit of a curiosity but not of real concern.

Now let’s consider a single galaxy. A star near the center of that galaxy isn’t going to be moving very fast in orbiting the galaxy, it’s surrounded by most of the mass of the galaxy, the gravitational pulls of everything outside its orbit are pretty much going to cancel out. Its orbital speed is really only going to depend on the mass inside its orbit. Further out, there’s more mass inside the orbit; a star out there is going to orbit faster. The further out you get, the faster the star will orbit (a situation exactly the opposite of what we have in the solar system) up to a point. Eventually you’re outside of the galaxy and the further out you get, the further away the galaxy is and the slower you orbit. So if you were to plot this against distance from the galactic center, it ought to start at near zero when you’re at the the center, rapidly climb to a peak, then drop off in an inverse-square fashion.

In 1939 Horace W. Babcock (1912-2003) took measurements of star velocities in the Andromeda galaxy to draw such a curve, and didn’t get this result. Speeds got high…and stayed high, much higher than expected, as he measured the velocities of stars further and further away from the center of a galaxy.

In the 1970s Vera Rubin (1928-2016) and many others repeated this work with many other galaxies, and the results were consistent. When you got beyond the visible edge of a galaxy, there was a lot of invisible mass. You couldn’t see it…until you measured its gravitational effect on lone stars way out there beyond the galaxy’s ‘suburbs.’

Was it gas that had somehow never been pulled fully into the galaxies? It turns out there is some such gas, and in fact the gas is a few times more massive more than the stars. We can detect the gas directly now; it turns out to be very hot, and glows in X rays. (We have to observe those in orbit; the earth’s atmosphere blocks them.)

One more piece of evidence.

Recall that General relativity explains gravity as space being warped by masses. Even light gets bent. This was first seen in 1919 by Arthur Eddington during a solar eclipse, a discovery which made the front page of the New York Times back when it wasn’t fake news, and made Einstein a celebrity.

It’s possible for a nearby galaxy to bend the light from a farther galaxy. It’s not only possible, it’s quite common. In the most extreme case, you can see a galaxy splitting a much more distant galaxy into four pieces, like this:

This is “Einstein’s Cross.” In the center is a galaxy, the four blobs around it are all the same object, a quasar much further away, lensed into a quadruple image. We know they’re the same object because they all have the same redshift and identical spectra.

Another spectacular example of this is this “Einstein ring” photographed by Hubble. The distant galaxy is almost directly behind the near one. It gets distorted into a nearly-complete ring.

Now usually we don’t get something nearly this tidy. What we’ll see is a galaxy off to the side, stretched out into a long, thin arc.

And it doesn’t have to be just a galaxy. A galaxy cluster can do this. Consider the following, which is a picture of the galaxy cluster Abell 1689. [No, we don’t bother naming individual galaxies any more…there are hundreds of billions of them.]

Here if you look closely you can see all sorts of short, straight lines…and your mind’s eye can even connect them into concentric rings about the cluster.

The cluster as a whole is lensing dozens or even hundreds of further galaxies.

And it’s possible to work backwards, and determine where the mass is distributed.

After accounting for every sort of regular matter we know how to detect, we’re only at about 20% of the amount of matter we would need to have, to do this. Furthermore, most of this mysterious mass isn’t in the galaxies.

It’s as if there’s something massive out there, and a galaxy is simply a visible manifestation of the center of that mass. As if the “normal” matter condenses into galaxies, but the other “dark” matter condenses some, but not as much. It’s not uniformly distributed throughout all of space, but clumps up in galactic clusters. In a very real sense these invisible clumps are the galactic clusters, since they are most of the mass of the clusters–those bright blobs are just a side effect.

This should be enough to convince you the stuff is there. Especially when I remind you that there are thousands of such examples, not just the ones I cherrypicked for this essay. Strictly speaking, of course, I haven’t proved anything because I’ve showed you none of the math. But the people who have seen it are mostly pretty confident.

So what IS this stuff?

YOU tell ME. Then go collect your Nobel Prize.

Because the person who solves it WILL get a Nobel Prize.

This is a question that has been occupying astronomers for a couple of decades now. And for the most part they can tell you what it is NOT.

It’s not just interstellar or intergalactic gas. That sort of material can be seen now; it glows in X rays. Even though that gas is more massive than visible galaxies, it’s not that much more massive. We presently think the dark stuff is 5 or 6 times as massive as the galaxies and the gas.

It doesn’t seem to want to interact via electromagnetism at all–which is why we can’t see it with light at all. (That’s an electromagnetic interaction.)

We know it does interact with gravity, and it probably interacts with the weak force but not the strong force.

Such matter would have a tough time even interacting with other matter of the same type, and that even includes collisions. That would explain why it doesn’t condense with galaxies. Ordinary matter becomes galaxies because as it passes through the densest part of the cloud, it collides, slows down and loses mechanical energy. If dark matter doesn’t collide with things, or at least not as readily, that explains why it hasn’t condensed as much as the regular matter in galaxies has.

Which means it’s not baryonic matter–it’s not made out of baryons, i.e., protons and neutrons. In fact “baryonic matter” is now a synonym for “ordinary” matter.

The one thing in the standard model we saw two parts ago (last week) that seems like it could fit is neutrinos. Those interact only with gravity and the weak force.

The problem is neutrinos move too fast: At light speed (if they have no mass) or just below (if in fact they have a tiny mass). They wouldn’t, therefore, clump up even as much as dark matter has been shown to clump up.

So most astronomers and astrophysicists are pretty confident (but not sure), that whatever dark matter is, it’s not in the standard model of particle physics at all. Which means 4/5 or 5/6ths of all the matter out there doesn’t appear in the standard model!

That’s what I meant when I said we know it’s not complete.

There is a generic placeholder answer to the question: Weakly Interacting Massive Particles. (WIMPs.) Massive because they must be slow compared to the speed of light. It’s some sort of particle we don’t know about yet. There’s quite a bit of speculation on what that might be, but nothing even remotely conclusive, and of course any coherent guess will be tried out in particle accelerators, or looked for in detectors.

Another possibility that some haven’t completely given up on is the Massive Compact Halo Object (MACHO) which would be things like black holes and rogue planets ant the like. (Of course the name was inspired by WIMP.)

A third possibility comes about from considering the nature of the evidence. There are multiple lines of evidence, but every single one of them ultimately depends on the assumption that we understand gravity properly.

What if gravity doesn’t drop off as an inverse square function after (say) ten thousand light years? This class of ideas is called MOND, for MOdified Newtonian Dynamics.

This last has fallen into disfavor (though there are die hard holdouts), because of the Bullet Cluster.

Here is the Bullet Cluster. It’s over a billion parsecs away.

There’s a large cluster on the left, and a smaller one on the right. It turns out they are both at the same distance from us, 1.141 Gpc or 3.7 billion light years. Which means this is what it looked like 3.7 billion years ago.

This is a visible light picture. When we photograph the intergalactic gas, which glows in X ray wavelengths, this is what we see:

The X rays come from gas clouds between the two clusters. (Unfortunately these two pictures aren’t to the same scale, but I will show you a picture with a super-imposition done on it, shortly.)

It’s apparent that the two clusters collided. Since the galaxies are far enough apart, no galaxies actually collided, so the galaxy clusters just went right through each other, like two shotgun blasts crossing in midair.

But the intergalactic gas fills space, and so the gas clouds accompanying the galaxies hit head on and slowed each other down. Thus the clusters left their intergalactic gas behind.

Finally, we can look for the dark matter by studying all gravitational lensing in the picture, and show it in blue:

The dark matter, responsible for most of the lensing, stayed with the galaxies. It’s not gas.

Putting them all together we have:

Now it becomes clear, the dark matter stayed with the galaxies–it didn’t collide meaningfully with the dark matter from the other cluster–but the hot gas did collide, and is now not moving along with the galaxies and dark matter.

There’s basically no way to account for this with a modified theory of gravity (though some astrophysicists still fight for it).

So we are back to asking: What is this stuff?

We know it’s there. We know how much of it there is. We’ll have another line of evidence that it’s not ordinary matter in an upcoming installment.

But we don’t know what it is. That’s a 2021 physics question.

And this is the sort of thing that occupies both the people who study the universe…and the people who study particles smaller than protons. One cannot imagine what ought to be two more different subjects, yet they are inextricably tied together.

Ordinary and dark matter put together account for about 30 percent of the mass/energy needed to make the universe “flat.” Suspiciously close to 100 percent, as I explained last week. But the fact of the matter is, everything we know about particle physics accounts for a fifth or a sixth of all the matter that exists. And why is the total amount (dark plus regular) off–but not by all that much–from the one number that is “special”–the critical density that would make spacetime “flat”?

That story is far from over.

When we lived in Davis, we were across the street from the Parker family (I’ll always remember because of “Pappy Parker Chicken” on Bob’s Big Boy menus…..). Pappy Parker had five daughters, and everyone would joke about how he could never leave the seat up.

scott467

“Pappy Parker had five daughters, and everyone would joke about how he could never leave the seat up.”

___________

Never really understood that whole issue.

Unless the seat is made out of iron or lead, it takes about the same effort to raise the seat as it does to put it down, so why doesn’t everybody just move it for themselves as needed?

When I have asked about it before, women usually tell a story about not realizing the seat was up, then trying to sit down, and falling into the toilet.

I don’t know if women know this or not, so maybe I probably shouldn’t say, but there are times when men use the toilet seat in the seated position too.

It’s a pretty straightforward assessment, you just sorta eyeball it as you walk into the bathroom. You can usually tell if the seat is up or down right away.

What are they doing, backing into the room?

Like they’re parking a Winnebago?

Is that what that beeping noise is?

GA/FL

Usually the calamity occurs in the dark of the night with no lights on. The porcelain rim is cold and then there is nothing to keep you from falling in unless you realize in time to stop first.

scott467

“Usually the calamity occurs in the dark of the night with no lights on.”

_____________

Seems like a problem easily solved with a nightlight on the toilet.

Or for the Tim Taylor types, you might attach two tiny Christmas tree lights to the side of the seat, red for port and green for starboard.

Then rig it so that when the seat is up, the red light comes on, and when the seat is down, the green light comes on.

That way, when you go to the bathroom in the dark, if you see the red light, you know that way danger lies.

And if you see the tiny green light on, it acts as both a seat-locator in the dark, as well as the ‘all systems are go’ signal that the seat is in the support position and ready for action 👍 😁

In this discussion, the aesthetic consideration never seems to get discussed. IMO a closed seat is an orderly seat, an open seat is an unaesthetic seat. Who wants to have the purpose brought to mind when not necessary?

“It’s a polite, mannerly thing to do…”

____________

So wouldn’t it likewise be polite to put the seat back up when you’re done, if that’s the way you found it?

This is why it’s so confusing.

The politeness argument relies on consideration of the other. In which case, men should always put the seat down, and women should always put the seat up when they’re done.

But this consideration, once it becomes custom or tradition, introduces responsibility and expectations. Invariably (or eventually) someone forgets, which leads to recriminations and family discord.

I experienced plenty of that growing up, forgetting to put the toilet seat down. The discord usually came with a lecture about personal responsibility, which was even more confusing, seeing as how she wasn’t personally responsible enough to check the toilet seat before she sat down… 😂

Singapore. June of 92. CTF-73, the Navy Command I was assigned shifted from Subic Bay, Philippines to Singapore. Initially we were placed in a hotel as old British military housing in Sembawang was being modernized a bit.

Incrementally we moved into the old British military housing.

One Navy family DID find a snake in their toilet one morning. Or so the story went. Over the three years we saw several snakes in our yard. Eighteen inches up to four feet. They live the HUGE trees. Mango some other tree.

Singapore was a great place to live. Certainly TMI. We lived at 294 Kenya Cresent. Here is a link to the area.

What a story. Looks like a nice place to live in. Snakes ugh our snakes in the yard are about a long as a pencil and as thick also. We live happy together.

kalbokalbs

The snakes were always black with some white markings. They had a fairly secure environment to live, hide… Never saw any rats or field mice of sorts.

The mango trees had very dense stringy vines hanging down to the ground. Sorta like banyon trees in Hawaii. Area had lots of tall grass, which was routinely whacked down. But the heavy rain, heat and of course humidity had the tall grass return quickly.

My husband bought toilet seats that go down on its own  😅 
One just pushes lightly and seat is down. The seat needs to be down because I have pets and do not want them to drink out of the bowl. We were in a hotel and I had to go at night. I forgot being half asleep that I did not have my wonderful seat just push light and the seat goes down. I pushed the seat and I spooked half the hotel when the seat crashed down.  🙄

Changing out a toilet is grueling work.

It requires wrangling two toilets:

  • First you have to get the old toilet out.
  • Then you have to wrangle the new toilet into the house and get it into place.

So it’s understandable that you would be exhausted!

cthulhu

Much of the problem is that the house was originally built in 1955, and many of its owners have kludged remodels or repairs (including myself, because I tried to maintain its original configuration while adding on. In retrospect, I should have bulldozed anything that annoyed me and just built it back right.).

But, yes, wrangling the old toilet out of the shower and into the backyard was the part that nearly killed me. And once I was outside going off-path, I managed to slop some trap water on myself. [I had, unbeknownst to the Fiancee, cleaned the toilet and flushed it about five times the night before in contemplation of this issue — but I need to do laundry.]

When I first met the Fiancee, I noted that she had a bit of a problem with right vs. left. Accordingly, she always wore a Ruby ring on her Right hand. About 10 years later, she had to go to Ireland to set up a tech support office for Europe, and had a rental car (like the UK, the Irish drive on the left). Envisioning all sorts of horrors, I asked her how she had coped. “No problem, I just moved my ring to the other hand.”

Now envision a plumbing installation where she kept asking if the threads went right or left.

cthulhu

I, myself, have a well-developed sense of chirality, but I had come to know that it is the luck of the draw. My younger sister was in the “chorus” of a pre-school presentation where the kids were supposed to “clap right clap left” (that’s how they memorized it), and physically *clap* *put their right hands out* *clap* *put their left hands out*. She had a very difficult time and very patient teachers.

Fast-forward to when she had her driving license and we were going someplace. I told her to turn right at the next light and she took her hands off the steering wheel and quietly clapped them together.

Gail Combs

Coothie, We use driver side, passenger side. I am a leftie and can write and draw with both hands so which hand you write with doesn’t work.

Having driven in both Japan and Singapore, it takes deliberate thought adjusting to driving on the correct side of the road.

Never screwed up seven years in Japan or three years in Singapore.

BUT, did on returning to the US, a couple occasions find myself on the wrong side of the road. Thankfully low volume traffic, side streets.

Driving side of the road and steering wheel can be left or right.

The pedal orientation is the same. Clutch left, brake center, and gas right.

Gearshift on the left makes things exciting sometimes. And driving in the UK and Eire in a left-hand drive car is also thrilling, in terms of distance judgement 🙂

One time I was driving back to the continent, after having come across to Calais from Dover at around 2:00 AM. In Calais there is (or was) a HUGE roundabout, and I was just about to go left when a pair of yellow (French) headlights on the front of a large truck convinced me to turn right 😮

Seems that the month in England had made driving on the left into a habit, almost a dangerous one…

Changing a toilet out sucks.

True story:

Years ago, I moved into a pretty old house, built at the end of the 1940s. Nowhere near as old as mine now, but that made it worse, not better. There was one bathroom, and it had bubblegum pink EVERYTHING. Tile, toilet, sink and bathtub. It was AWFUL. A Fifties nightmare.

We had to remodel it. HAD TO. I couldn’t take it. But we could only work on it on the weekends.

We would take out the toilet to work, and use the corner gas station during the day. But we had small children, and I was pregnant, too, so we had to have a working toilet at night. So we put the toilet back in every afternoon. Then took it out again in the morning and started up again.

I think we uninstalled and reinstalled the toilet four or five times over the course of a few weekends. It was ridiculous.

Deplorable Patriot

Yes, pink bathrooms. Ours disappeared not quite fifteen years ago. Don’t miss it. That was one heck of a mess of a remodel, though.

Cuppa Covfefe

And then there’s the immortal Avocado Green, from the 1970s… 🙂 or :mrgreen:

singingsoul1

My daughter has an avocado green guest bathroom. She hats it and has had a big splurge on her master bedroom. Heated floor sunken bathtub big enough to put a family in and a large shower with more shower heads one can think off.
That was such big mess to build that she dreads to have her guest bathroom ripped up. One day she will maybe before selling the house 🙂

Cuppa Covfefe

It’s possible to paint over tile, or to apply tile over tile, but then you’re still stuck with the avocado fixtures….

Maybe THAT’S where (and why) Polterabends were invented 😆

singingsoul1

I am easier going in that department. I would get new white cabinets and sinks .
Get new back tiles with a green accent. A new floor maybe new tiles around the bathtub and it could look really good. I do not get stuck in somethings maybe because I am not bound and am creative when it comes to solution. I could work with it and it would look really good.
My daughter called my house ” my mother with her Better Homes and Garden house”.
I designed my kitchen and my bathrooms in 1920 style. I used to play house as if it was a doll house. See how crazy I am ?

My in laws had a pink bathroom house build in 1940. The tiles and bathtub were in excellent shape. I would not have changed it just because of color because it was well taken care off and better quality than today.
When we moved in this house 1920 the bathroom was black and white and not well taken care. We had to remodel but I wanted the similar look and we used black and whit and used Kohler. Still the quality is nothing near what older bathtubs were and my in laws specially the bathtub.
I feel people having to get the toilet set in thank god we had a good plumber who did an exelent job.

And just think of ALL those lovely AFRICANS and who ever that are stampeding across the US border bringing all sorts of diseases with them…

December 2, 2004 — LEPROSY, HEPATITIS AND TUBERCULOSIS RISING FAST IN UNITED STATES

….Over 100,000 cases of hepatitis have been documented in the United States in the past three years according to the Center for Immigration Studies in Washington, DC.

In the past 40 years, the United States registered a total of 900 cases of the feared Biblical disease–leprosy. Virtually unknown to Americans in the last century, leprosy exceeded 7,000 new cases brought in on the backs of newcomers since 2001. Most of the people infected in America are illegal alien immigrants from leprosy hot spots in Mexico, Brazil, the Caribbean and India.

“And those are the ones we know about,” Dr. William Levis, attending physician at Bellevue Hospital’s Hansen’s Disease Clinic. “There are probably many, many more.”…

July 2, 2014 — Government to Doctors: Mention Illegal Aliens’ Diseases, Go to Jail

12/29/2018 — Media buries the truth about illegal immigrants bringing wave of hepatitis, tuberculosis and HIV to America

….The same week Judicial Watch published the story about the caravan health threat a major newspaper reported on the health crisis created by the influx of Venezuelans fleeing to neighboring countries. The migrants are spreading malaria, yellow fever, diphtheria, dengue, tuberculosis and AIDS throughout South America. Many of the diseases had been considered eradicated in the neighboring Latin American countries, according to government officials cited in the article, which states that “contagion from Venezuela’s economic meltdown is starting to spread to neighboring countries—not financially, but literally, in the form of potentially deadly diseases carried among millions of refugees.” As an example, the story reveals that “measles reappeared with a vengeance” in a Brazilian city near the Venezuelan border that had declared the highly contagious airborne disease “vanquished” nearly two decades ago….

Years ago, when Barack Obama let tens of thousands of illegal immigrant minors into the country, health experts warned about the serious hazards to the American public. Most of the Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) came from Central America, like the current caravan, and they crossed into the U.S. through Mexico, in the same way that the caravan expects to. Swine flu, dengue fever and Ebola were among the diseases that the hordes of UACs brought with them, according to lawmakers and medical experts interviewed by Judicial Watch during the influx….

Many migrants lack basic vaccinations such as those to prevent chicken pox or measles, leaving America’s young children and the elderly particularly susceptible, Gingrey pointed out then. To handle the escalating health crisis the CDC activated an Emergency Operations Center (EOC) that largely operated in secrecy….

Why would we think that the Bye-Done Administration and the FauXi Mengeli NIH & CDC would be any different.

WORSE it is not just diseases from Latin America now it is diseases from Afghanistan and Africa.

Center for Disease Control?? More like the Center for SPREADING DISEASE. After all BRING the disease to the USA and the US Citizens WILL PAY BIG to develop treatments.
Do not forget AIDS, FauXi’s favorite disease, came to the USA from AFRICA via ONE GAY Canada Airline steward named Gaëtan Dugas. — The story is now being whitewashed. After all in this GAY Pride Age, we can’t have a GAY who thru his extensive travels and unrepentant, unprotected sex, even after he was diagnosed, helped spread AIDS to over 40 people, vilified.

Here is the lie right here:

The company’s COVID-19 shot contains an actual version of the virus’ spike protein that cannot cause disease but can trigger the immune system. 

Wrong. The full spike is alwats pathogenic. It can’t cause viral disease, but it causes other disease states.

Chris

Sorry for the poor C/P Warp speed question/answer, I think it fits here
A commenter left this at AC’s place – Anonymous Conservative
YMMV

A plausible scenario..
“Health minister suggests fourth vaccine dose amid rising fears of fifth COVID wave. They may need to push these boosters, because their network is not big enough to get the number three shots reliably into the people they want to get them into”.
This could be a factor, but I think there are two bigger factors:
(1) overall jab rates have been significantly inflated to help create the appearance of a society-wide consensus to get jabbed, thus increasing actual jab rates. Cabal is known to inflate Dem election poll numbers to the tune of 15-20%, so at least this level of exaggeration could be assumed in advertised vax rates. It also explains why they are clinging to anti-vaxxer lockdowns and other punishments – they know the actual jab rate is much lower than their official stats are saying, and ‘boosters’ are needed to get the rest.
(2) The jabs come in successive batches, designed to cause different types of serious morbidities, with different time frames for mortality: short, medium and longer term. The non-saline doses in the first batches were designed to cause mainly blood clots and myocarditis, but you can’t have too many people dying too close together in time of the same diseases, well above historical averages, as it looks too suspicious. So I think these subsequent booster jabs will gradually introduce a range of different diseases, with different mortality time frames, enough so that Cabal’s media assets can manufacture vaguely plausible cover stories for each. Perhaps this explains Trump’s vaccine stance: Cabal was intending to introduce this genocidal program very gradually, over a decade or more, and as such the initial batches they manufactured were mostly harmless saline, but Trump has forced them to boil the frog far too quickly. Now they have been compelled to compress that time frame dramatically and bring on the lethal batches far earlier and in far higher percentages than they were originally planning. And now the Normies are starting to notice the sudden spike in the death rate of young, healthy people, of diseases that young, healthy people almost never die from. And they are seeing the near psychotic desperation of the elites to get them jabbed, and to continue getting them jabbed indefinitely, and they are starting to smell a rat. And in response they are taking to the streets in massive numbers that are growing ever more massive by the day. If the above hypothesis is true, then Trump’s actions can be explained by him knowing that Cabal’s initial vaccine batches were mostly saline, and therefore the large majority of initial recipients would be unharmed. Yes, a minority would be injured or die from the non-saline doses mixed in, but this would pale into insignificance next to the genocidal consequences of Cabal’s program implemented as originally intended. And what was he to say? Tell everyone that the vaccine doses were poisonous and their own governments were trying to kill them? That would have sounded bat shit crazy to most, and then all Cabal would have needed to do was to increase the % of saline jabs to near 100% for a while, and Trump would have been widely seen as a delusional mental patient, and completely destroyed politically. Done the way he did it, this vaccine debacle can, and is now, acting as the catalyst for the Great Awakening. And once people realize their own elites tried to murder them with a vaccine, how much more plausible will the organized rape and satanic sacrifice of countless children over the years by the elites sound?  😉 

Deplorable Patriot

Interesting hypothesis.

Filing this one for future reference.

para59r

Yes, but perhaps subscribing too much to what Trump knew. Doubts he’d be okay with saline shots, especially for the people who needed protection. Say the right words, act the right way, Trump is going to trust you to be doing the right thing. Next he’ll assign others to do the watching and checking and report back the progress. If he has the right people telling him these vaccines are good, everything is working as should be, who is he to disbelieve that. He’s going to go with the experts. Meanwhile he’s got a ton of other things to be focused on and the entire virus thing has been a huge distraction for him. On top of that he wasn’t building a mandatory vax program, just for those who needed it and the others who wanted it.

Deplorable Patriot

One thing that keeps getting lost is that this has always been a military operation, and it is my contention that Trump is was and in the future will be again the front man.

Do I like the way this has gone down? No, but that makes more sense than to think someone of Trump’s intellect wasn’t aware he was being tricked. Honestly, he knew going in what was in the works from the DS, I am quite sure, and forced their hand.

PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD

Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.

I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.

Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.

With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.

Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me. 

Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, amen.

Thanks Smiley.

Tonawanda

Anonymous Conservative expresses my opinion on the Boebert apology. There was zero reason for this apology. Sorry, I do not and cannot accept stupidity as an explanation. Stupidity is possible, just not plausible.

Boebert apologizes to Ilhan Omar for making a joke about it being fine so long as Omar does not have a backpack. These things are revealing because you don’t apologize to someone you genuinely hate. If I did something horribly over the line to Biden, I’m never apologizing, because he is the face of evil, and is destroying the country. The truth is, given all of these people appear to be occultists in service to pure evil, as they seek the destruction of America, I doubt there is anything you could do or say which you would ever have to apologize for to them. Likewise, Omar is the asset of a foreign intel operation which is setting our nation up to be destroyed by China, while killing millions of the best Americans we have. If you are really in the game, and believe in the cause, you don’t apologize to that. But if you are a heavily tattooed actress, playing the role of a conservative, for some Israeli pornographer who recruited you off one of his modelling sites, and you step over the line while ad-libbing some shit-talk to one of your fellow actresses in the middle of a scene, you apologize. These people do not get in these offices the way we were told.”

singingsoul1

I agree with you concerning Omar who seems to slide along without being held accountable. Republicans are held to different standarts even by republicans 🙂

Boebert spoke the way she saw it and got laughs . If she did not felt that way and said things to get a cheap laugh that is problematic to me.
I like and authentic person more than one She properly had a talking too by an advisor maybe fear of consequences being kicked of committees?

Aubergine

I honestly think people are afraid to properly confront Omar because she is black, foreign, and a woman. Heaven forbid they get called out as “racist,” bigoted, or xenophobic.

Call me whatever, but Ilhan Omar has absolutely NO BUSINESS being in our government, period. I would exclude ALL foreign-born people from ANY government position, right down to dog-catcher. Foreign-born people have no right to that kind of position. They should assimilate and their children can take whatever position they like in American life.

I’m sorry if that is a harsh position, but it is my opinion that we have to stop allowing just whomever shows up here to gain positions of power and authority. We are a melting pot, which is wonderful, but we can’t let the chunks of cheese rule over the sauce.

singingsoul1

I agree about Omar. Foreign people need to understand American culture and it takes a long time to understand. When people come as babies small children they normally assimilate. Omar comes from a culture that is so foreign to ours and she had already at 8 a lot of baggage. She has no clue about America.

singingsoul1

You have a point there.

singingsoul1

Yes people need to be informed and to be found of the constitution. I think sometimes we are artificial when it comes selecting people for office.

singingsoul1

Yes the test was a beauty 🙂 My granddaughter said they took a citizen test in an expensive private school they all failed.

Aubergine

I’d vote for that!

Aubergine

Lol. Too true, that last bit.

para59r

Add on to that she was bad news for the country she fled, pushing Marxism there. For her there is not intention of assimilation. She wants us to change to her preconceived ideas of how the world must operated. She was full up and on board with CT before she even thought of coming here and that will not change. Other’s not so much or so we should hope…but verify.

Cuppa Covfefe

Real Moslems are FORBIDDEN to assimilate. They can practice Taqiyyah (faking compliance and tolerance) until the proportion of Moslems is enough to make the tail wag the dog, but they cannot truly assimilate.

That’s something Merde-Kuh amd crew do not (or will not) understand, even though they’ve been warned by both former Moslems, and (current9 Moslem clerics (Imams)…

A story is told of a Rabbi, a Pastor, and an Imam going to a debate.

The Rabbi and the Pastor go there to tie.

The Imam, on the other hand, goes there to WIN.

Big difference. They don’t view the food, housing, clothing, schooling, and healthcare that we give to them (and, sadly, not to our homeless/unemployed/disadvantaged, etc.) as aid or charity. No, they view it as Jizrah, the “non-Moslem” tax that WE supposedly owe to THEM.
They look at the destination country (in this case Germany) as a conquest/invation TARGET, NOT as a refuge from problems at home.

So when they’ve made their respective homelands into a $hithole, they come here to make Germany (or the USA) into a matching $hithole. Just like the Devil, they cannot create; they can only destroy… and it’s high time we learn that, and act to stop it.

Cuppa Covfefe

Knowing that she was taking the mickey out of a Mozzie, and knowing how things go over here, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if there were death threats involved.

Plain and simple.

Mozzies kill for less. Just look up honor killings for example…

Aubergine

Oh yeah, that’s true. They kill for saying the wrong thing.

Grandmaintexas

She’s not a conservative.

singingsoul1

Omar? True she is not.

Chris

I’m sure Tonawandas reason for the post, was to point out,
Why was Boebert backpedaling and apologizing for what she said about Omar?
Why ?
That shows weakness of conviction, willingness to back down from a position.
If one has strong conviction, they do not back down.
AC is also alluding to Boebert probably not being who she presents herself to be..jmho
She says alot of the right things ,but is she a strong conservative?
Or just saying what will get her points with her constituents at the time(venue)?
Why the backpedaling?
I chuckled with her “not your brother husband, your other husband” quip on the house floor the other day .  😂 

Cuppa Covfefe

If someone gets death threats, they usually do, unless they have 24×7 protection…

Lots of “accidents” have happened here in Europe because of that…

I do not know about her but it seems is nothing new people in Congress pretending.
She might belong to the pretender club 🙂

General Flynn responds:

@RealGenFlynn

A couple of points to address this nonsense- and I’m addressing this because we have far more serious problems at hand that our country is facing and this will be the end of it for me—others may have the time, I don’t:

I don’t personally know these people LW mentions, Jarrin, Hancock, nor Kyle Rittenhouse. These must be people who have caused him harm. That is something Lin should deal with. Making them my problem doesn’t change anything. And if Lin raised money for Kyle Rittenhouse, great!

I don’t know this Pegasus thing LW mentions. I’ve had relationships with lots of people and entities, this is not one that I know.

It’s sad that LW has had threats to his family. Doesn’t make it right at all but join the club. That’s what the psychos we deal with do…they threaten us because they fear us.

Prayers and praying: I pray a lot, always have and always will. As I’ve said, they can take away your freedom but never your faith. If I’ve said prayers, they’re meant for good purposes, nothing more nothing less. Period.

Whatever your religion, you decide. Mine is of the Catholic faith…and I do believe we are one nation under God. The left is trying to cause division and are desperate to remove God from everything (let’s not let them do that).

Earning a living, or better stated, recovering lost earnings and costs…you bet. America got me through the past four years, I trust they’ll stand by me in the future.

Any other sins I’ve missed, I’m certain someone will mention one or two. My family and I went through unrelenting political persecution because I stood against the devil herself and helped (in a significant way) DJT get elected as POTUS. Anyone who thinks I’m deep state and then allowed the persecution and slander my family and I went through since 2016 is out of their mind (seriously).

My endorsement of Vernon Jones: I support Vernon and believe he is the best candidate to be the next Gov of Georgia. LW supports another candidate. That’s okay, that is his choice.

Judges and judging: For all the so called people of faith, there are a lot of judges among you all. Keep in mind who the ultimate Judge is and it ain’t me. What I do believe is that we have very serious issues to deal with right here in the United States of America and these massive issues are where we should be focusing our energy.

Now it’s back to my grandkids who I’m trying to spend some precious and quality time with.

God bless America

He claims to not be DS. Do we expect him to self identify as one? If what he says is true, it means he blindly trusted the FBI and other DS who set him up while he was PDT’s NSA such that he even endangered his family. Not sure which scenario is worse, but know that both are bad. Either way he contributed to the knee capping of duly elected POTUS after choosing to accept the NSA position which is ultimately responsible to the American people. So if that is judging – guilty as charged.

Glad he is free from the quagmire for he and his family’s sake. I hope it turns out he was the patriot some folks believe him to be. If so, all those DS arrests should be happening any time now for all those things they did to him and to all of us.

Is it Omicron or Omnicron?

Whatever.

I must say, though….pooh-poohing the new variant seems a bit premature right now.

For myself, I DO fear they would release a new “variant” (lab made, of course) that truly IS exponentially more deadly and contagious. After all…

Why wouldn’t they??

These evil people have played this brilliantly. They can now murder hundreds of millions of people and openly blame it on a virus they created and released!

They have, in effect, robbed the people of the earth of untold hundreds of billions (trillions?) of dollars, and now can simply murder them in their millions without need of death camps or death squads.

Who, or what, is to stop them??

And if they have gone this far….and they most certainly have….why shouldn’t we fear even worse?

All of which is to repeat….

pooh-poohing the new variant seems a bit premature right now.

I hope and pray this new variant is a nothingburger, as was “Delta”. God help us if it isn’t.

Most of the speculation on the O variant is that it’s the cover for the jab injuries and “breakthrough cases.”

There are many small (often family, for generations) vendors who put up stands at Christmas Markets, Oktoberfest, and local fests who have not been able to do that for two years now.

And they are going bankrupt.

All because of the SATANIC DEEP STATE and its equally SATANIC leaders, including Satan himself.

Another effect of this is that the culture (e.g. “Heimatfests”) and the Holidays (the Weihnachtsmärkte, etc.) are being slowly but surely destroyed. Probably to be replaced by the likes of Ali Ulabood’s Kebap House and Shisha Bar, or Pooh Xi’s noodle and Corona House…

This won’t be for everyone by any means, especially as the talk on the family in the fourth quarter of the interview is really full of Catholic teaching rejected by the overall society, but Fr.

How exactly do they know it’s the new virus ? The tests don’t seem to distinguish between variants. How is it that this virus has been mutating and spreading for years but they have no real method of treating it.. and they refuse to use known drugs (HCQ,Ivermectin)

They keep everyone so riled up with their fear propaganda campaigns that few people ever ask these questions.

People generally are so confused and scared about getting sick that given the slightest push and they’ll easily be conned into believing that the heat troubles, clots, seizures, bells palsy and deaths are the result of the latest strain not the jabs

Yep. In other news, 500,000 people this week contracted the cold virus(es), one component of which is the fabled Corona (my-Corona?) virus.

No-one seemed to care, or notice, other than the “sniffle-ees” and their families…

The Mainscream media is conflating infectiousness (spreading) with severity, and have apparently fooled quite a few people. IIRC, there’s an inverse relationship there; the more infections a disease, the less severe it is.

There probably are some exceptions (to prove the rule)…

Explosive Interview, UK Cardiologist Highlights Link Between mRNA Vaccines and Heart Disease, While Noting Researchers Withholding Data Fearful of Losing Funding – The Last Refuge (theconservativetreehouse.com)

Dr Aseem Malhotra exposes a link between mRNA vaccines and heart disease in an explosive British news broadcast. Mahotra also outlines other scientific studies that have confirmed the link between Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) in the aftermath of taking the vaccine, but the researchers are fearful to report them.

Dr. Malhotra is referencing his own empirical findings with a currently circulating study by renowned cardiologist Dr. Steven Gundry. The most important element of the discussion is ongoing research reflecting data showing the COVID-19 Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaccines “dramatically increase” a common measure of heart risk in people.

The recently published “warning” in the journal Circulation by cardiologist Dr. Steven Gundry, known as a pioneer in infant heart transplant surgery, is having reverberations around the cardiology community. Gundry’s analysis was presented at the recent meeting of the American Heart Association. “We conclude that the mRNA vacs dramatically increase inflammation on the endothelium and T cell infiltration of cardiac muscle and may account for the observations of increased thrombosis, cardiomyopathy, and other vascular events following vaccination.”

Within the British media interview Dr. Malhotra cites these studies and his own research to say governments’ should immediately stop mandating the vaccines and instead allow patients and doctors to determine the health risk factors. Here’s the interview:

Building on, NO way I’m getting a Covid injection AND no flu shot.

Have extended it to include ANY injection they roll out WITH mRNA technology

My guess is the bastids have plans to release all sorts of injections based on engineered mRNA technology, REPLACING existing vaccines.

Smarter folks than I would know the likely hood, even possibility of vaccines of all sorts via mRNA technology.

That’s just it, in future how will anyone know what’s in any jab.

I guess we’ve never been privy to what’s in shots or medicine. They make the stuff and we ingest it.
When kids become autistic or have flippers instead of arms and legs then and only then might there be any re-thinking about the drug…but they’ve never actually acknowledged the link between vaccines and autism so that’s not even a good analogy.
IIRC many of the ones investigating or speaking out have died under mysterious circumstances.

IMHO, all we really need to know is that the jabs they offer are toxic to many and probably to all after the extreme amount of them Fauxi is saying will be required

Trust in the medical profession is all but gone

If we are merely a LARP asking questions on the Chans, why are we being attacked daily by some of the world’s biggest media co’s, social media co’s deliberately applying censorship/banning, shills paid/inserted to disrupt (media matters), blue checkmark coordinated attacks, etc.?

All for a ‘conspiracy’ on the Chans?

All for a ‘LARP’?

Why is there a constant flow of disinformation being pushed re: Q?

Example:

Disinformation push re: Mueller is a white hat.

FAKE & FALSE narrative.

Think BLOCKADE.

When you can’t attack the information directly, you attack the source, if that fails, you ‘create false misleading information’ to discredit knowing ‘select’ ‘unaware’ followers would not take the time to self-corroborate the claims (same vehicle/tactics used by FAKE NEWS media).

Logical thinking always wins.

Nothing can stop what is coming.

As the target(s) turn to the other side, the attacks will intensify.

We have the source.

I have no idea of how or even IF it can be recovered. Maybe the best thing would be to get the good folks out, and scrape off the rest into the Pacific… The “Native Sons of the Golden West” must be rolling in their graves, as well as all the honest, hard-working, patriotic folks who have passed on. And those still living are more than likely grinding their teeth and wondering what to do, and/or how to get out (e.g. chiefio).

I’m glad, but sad that I left, years ago. Each time we’ve come back to visit, it’s far worse. As it was in the time of Noah, it seems… Sodom by the Bay…

It’s not the German government, it’s the “Verein Sterbehilfe” which is the professional association governing assisted deaths (i.e. Euthanasia).

Currently, based on the “infection rate” and the policies of the various states, medical appointments are under 1G, 2G, or 3G rules, respectively only-vaxxed, vaxxed and recovered (i.e. immune [for six months!]), or vaxxed, recovered, or tested. Supervisory bodies, such as this one, can implement tighter rules (1G or maybe 2G in this case) should they choose to do so.

More worrisome is their attempts to force children to get the jab despite all the reports and studies (even the RKI, our “CDC”) showing they shouldn’t. But, we have the same sort of idiots at the top who ignore the advice of those who know better…

Confused South African Medical Community Says Omicron Variant Only Has Mild Symptoms, “We Do Not Know Why So Much Hype”
comment imageThe Times of India, a media outlet previously very skeptical of Big Pharma, is reporting from the South African Medical Association that officials are puzzled about the hype around Omicron.

The variant has only produced mild symptoms in regional patients with very little impact.

Occam’s Razor – The new variant is being hyped because international governments need it to be hyped. The biggest threat to politicians and the global financial system attempting to Build Back Better via enlarged government spending, is not COVID; the biggest threat is anger from the citizenry over the inflation the government spending and buying of debt is creating.

What is the quickest way to eliminate the political risks due to inflation? Shut down demand. Lock down economies, turn the valves closed on economic demand and then watch price increases slow down.

Sadie Slays

I disagree with SD’s narrow focus here. I suspect the Moronic variant has several overlapping goals:

1) Hide vax-related health problems.

2) Rebrand the seasonal flu like they did last year to give the fear narrative a boost.

3) Distract from various political problems—economic (SD’s take), school board wars (SB meetings moved online “out of abundance of caution”), Ghiz’s upcoming sex trafficking trial, etc.

4) America-centric goal: Start the push for mail-in ballots early to fix upcoming primaries and mid-terms.

5) Canada and EU: Possible push toward Australia-style totalitarianism.  

6) Push more injections.

kalbokalbs

All the above, 100%.

ForGodandCountry

SD focus intentionally narrow.

He does his best to limit the size of his postings and loathes making long posts (which are, at times, unavoidable).

Trying to put all of that into a single post would make for several pages. Not something he is going to do.

So, he chooses the biggest target which no one….especially us…is talking about at present….

How the DS plans to use OmiSCAREya to introduce new lockdowns and artificially kill demand, slowing inflation, which is the prime political threat to our overlords right now.

After all…

They don’t need to care about the opinions of starving people when they control the vote counts.

But I otherwise agree. SD has limited resources, and I’m sure he’ll make the other connections—mail-in ballots, more injections, vax injury cover ups—as time and the newscycle allows.

Vaccine ground report. I’ve mentioned my one relative a few times here who got the vaccine (Moderna), developed a 104 degree fever the same day as the second shot, then developed osteoporosis three months later. Well, about two months ago (six months after the second shot), she developed “frozen shoulder.” That’s shoulder pain caused by inflammation, not physical trauma. 

Anyways, the reason why I’m posting this here today is because she finally admitted that she thinks the vaccine caused it. She confirmed what I suspected all along—that the affected shoulder is on the same arm that got the injections. She said all of this out of nowhere. I was shocked. I never expected her to make the connection to the injections. I know it’s just one anecdote, but I consider her a reliable bellwether of what the mainstream America is thinking.

Poor woman. Can you imagine having to admit to yourself, much less to others, that you had fallen for something that has damaged you for life? I hope she gets some physical therapy for the frozen shoulder.

You should warn her that the drugs they will want to prescribe for osteoporosis have some terrible potential side effects. I wouldn’t take them, and they really wanted to give them to me.

Sadie Slays

Thank you for the head’s up! You’re right—those pill pushers probably have her on something nasty. I’m mad at myself for not considering that possibility until you mentioned it (and I do genuinely appreciate you mentioning it). -sigh- I’ll see what I find out and do. 

Aubergine

You’re welcome, and I’m sorry it is even a thing.

I was diagnosed with borderline-level osteoporosis, and the doctor IMMEDIATELY jumped to the medications. I investigated, and found that the potential side effects could include broken femurs (I mean like just snapping in half while walking along), or the loss of ALL bone in one side of your face! Are you kidding me? I confirmed this with a good friend who is a retired chiropractor, who said it was accurate.

I started a program of yoga, diet and vitamins. I have not had another bone-density scan, as the Covid nonsense hit, and I won’t go in for one until it calms down. We’ll see if it has helped someday, I hope.

He says, this is the second time he has heard that today. He’ll take it up with his Salvation Army Captain. Also learned he is a volunteer, not a paid bell ringer. Professed to be a staunch conservative. Bashed BiteMe as the worst pResident ever.

Chatted a few more minutes and bid him a good day

FWIW, I plan to take this tact with every pale face Salvation Army bell ringer I happen by. I would expect pale face volunteers, will NOT be pleased, learning Salvation Army says they should apologize for being White. Paid goofs will likely not care.

New article from Political Moonshine:

Fractured Leadership: Part II – Wood, Flynn, Powell, Byrne and Trump Dynamic Unravels to the CCP’s Benefit Under the Cover of Another National Holiday

[no date on this one, but the email notice was received about 45 minutes ago]

“Leadership is a peculiar thing. Sometimes you find it and sometimes it finds you; whether you want it to or not. It’s no different than opportunity – it will knock on your door and when it does, you either answer or you don’t. I believe this scenario applies to nationally preeminent defamation attorney, Lin Wood. I would suggest to Mr. Wood that leadership found him and that it appears that he has been tasked by a higher power to forge ahead shining the light of the truth. Onward!

For the record, bias is found in this work since I’m in private dialogue with Mr. Wood and I’ve never had any form of exchange with Lt. General Michael Flynn, famed attorney Sidney Powell, former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne or President Trump.
Truth be told, Mr. Wood is a busy man spread thin and so my communications with him are limited by how much he weighs-in on our ongoing discussion, which is moderately light and sporadic.

To begin and for proper context, I recommend consuming the first article in this sub-series. It details the start of the unraveling of our leadership cohort and the infighting underpinning it, which has the cohort fractured. China, the CCP and the proxy Biden administration all stand to directly and substantially benefit from this.

Here’s something to consider. What makes Mr. Wood different than Flynn, Powell and Byrne is not only that Wood is throwing tectonic and landscape shifting haymakers in his claims, but that he is backing them up by throwing down hefty receipts.

After writing the first article, I went back and listened to all three Byrne conversations that Wood posted on his Telegram feed. Generally, here’s what I learned encouraging you to run down Wood’s Telegram feed yourself; taking the time to listen the recordings firsthand.
In so doing, an immediate lesson in projection is learned.

A steady and even keeled Wood, who is sage with 45 years experience in evidence acquisition, examination and cross-examination, sounded and presented completely antithetical to the way he is portrayed by legacy media and for which he is attacked by his enemies.

Rather it was Byrne who appeared anxious, conflicted and perhaps even compromised or at least stewing in hot water. Of course all of this arises out of the Rittenhouse matter, his handler-crafted attacks on Wood, others’ attacks on Wood and the entangling of fundraising for Rittenhouse by paralleling entities operated by Wood on one side and Flynn, Powell and Byrne on the other.

Unlike the latter three; all of whom face substantial questions about their organizations’ finances and books, Wood has posted online #FightBack’s financials for the Rittenhouse matter in full transparency.

Byrne admitted and discussed those financial matters in the call with Wood. He also expanded on Sidney Powell’s duplicity as an evangelical; turning it on and off depending on the audience and suggesting it as a method to deceive Mr. Wood and perhaps curry his favor.

Moreover and worse, Byrne cites repeated patterns of emotional and mental instability with Powell and to the extent that an entire sidebar drama unfolded with sexual advances made on him by Powell, his declining of them and her inappropriate and troubling response to them.

Byrne stated specifically that he was precluded from auditing their group’s financials and funding saying he only got access to data for a fraction of the full amount known to be on hand.

In a staggering admission, the total amount was eventually put at $70 million raised and Byrne further cited legal considerations being finalized for Powell’s for-profit organizations. Byrne further expanded on how the arrangements contained stock-options and that Powell was using funds raised by her foundation to pay herself back for her own legal fees incurred in her post-election lawsuits.

Translated, Byrne is suggesting that Powell was dishonest in disclosing her financials and that she may be laundering the money in ways to enrich or at least reimburse herself in ways that are outside of the lines. I will tell you that if true, Byrne’s descriptions and the amounts involved spell considerable trouble for Powell and likely position her for severe legal jeopardy but only if a prosecutor out of Merrick Garland’s DOJ would take it on with fidelity and only if the details are accurate as portrayed. Good luck with that.
Is Powell under federal investigation? Wood asked precisely that.”

Lin has it on his channel, Byrne literally sounds drunk or high.

Yeah, as I mentioned, he really seems like a loose cannon. And if his story is changing, who knows what the truth really is.

Very interesting read.

More or less validated Maricopa audit is pure delay, delay, delay. I, perhaps we, already believed that, but first time I’ve read it. Flynn and Byrne funded Maricopa audit. Didn’t know that. Interesting and, a bit odd, to me. Assuming I read it correctly, their funding the audit surprised me.

Good as any place for this comment.

Have always thought it odd as hell, Admiral Mike Rogers lets Trump-elect know he is being spied on. Retires AND totally unheard from again. Trump didn’t draft him for anything.

Hasn’t taken a public stance on any of the obvious corrupt practices of the IC, IC BS assessments out of the IC regarding Trump and Russia, Capitol Hill Intelligence Committees,…

BUT, Rogers informed Trump about the spying on him, Trump.

Something seems very “off” with all of this.

Perhaps he was scared off after FIB and IC conspired against Flynn. Dunno.

I agree with Moonshine that the Maricopa audit is being delayed. That is all we have seen. I keep thinking that I don’t know all the inner workings, the red tape they have to go through, etc., but now I am positive that auditing the 2020 election is being slow-walked and sabotaged. By whom, and is there proof, are my questions. And is there time to do anything about it?

(And I know….Myanmar/Burma. 😃)

While Flynn was under indictment for lying to the FBI, he was greatly in need of money and there were fund-raising efforts on his behalf. He sold his house to help pay legal fees. And now he has an organization that was able to help pay $5 million to fund an audit. I was struck that he was able to do that when he had been so financially strapped, but it was his organization that funded the audit.

This Moonshine post, and Wood’s Telegram posts, explain why Wood has been so adamant about correcting 2020 by being hard on people like MTG who don’t appear to be working on it at all. I see why Wood is suspicious of people who aren’t working on it, hard. He sees time slipping by and those entrusted with audits slow-walking them, and WAY too many others content to just let it go.

Among MANY other things, Flynn’s affidavit submitted in support of Powell’s motion to withdraw his plea, convinced me about his and Powell’s level of honesty and competence. I will not repeat my observations.

When Wood joined Flynn and Powell, in my eyes that reflected very poorly on Wood. As an attorney, Wood must have known them for who they were, I reasoned.

Apparently not. But he has since learned, apparently. These Truths persuaded me to reconsider my negative view of Wood. I am still reconsidering, but this post by PM makes me believe Wood more.

What holds me back from endorsing Wood completely is his use of language. My own personal reaction is that his language is unsettling. For instance, a post on this site a couple days ago cited Wood’s Telegram statements, in which Wood repeatedly uses sexual language (a repeated particular word) in a crude and puerile way, while also repeating Christian language (including the name of Jesus). The mixture made me angry, and it made me wonder who would do such a thing.

But that is personal, and not necessarily indicative of who is telling the truth.

And at any rate, the whole affair just reflects that our side is far, far away from making things right. That Trump might have been threatened with mass destruction if he tried to intercede as we hoped is plausible, and if so he made the right decision. But it also means that those threats are still on the table, and that there appears not to be an organization or institution which is willing or able to make things right in the near future.

A virus so weak they had to release a vaccine to weaken your immune system just to kill you.

So the South African doctor that alerted health authorities of the omicron variant says it presents with “mild” symptoms and those infected “may have a slight cough”. The doctor went on to say “there are no prominent symptoms” and that most patients are “being treated at home”. In other words, the dangerous, life-threatening omicron variant is really just a seasonal cold or allergy. But hey let’s go ahead and shut down the world anyway.

Yup.

The Covid farce continues. Whatever the US government says, is most likely 180 from the truth.

Surely FauXi, that Walensky wench will be on Sunday talk shows proclaiming Boosters, Boosters, inject the children NOW…

Interesting, Thought I had read a Japanese guy created, discovered Ivermectin and was awarded a Nobel Peace prize.

Perhaps they both received a Nobel Peace prize for Ivermectin.

Me, REALLY, REALLY glad Ivermectin is available.

No no, it was that guy when he was in Japan that he discovered Ivermectin.  🤓

Got it. Thanks.

Please note that Qtreepers health post is sticky, so Carl’s Sunday post is the SECOND post on the home page — and is up.
