2 Peter 3: 10-11 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be?
How Should We Live Our Lives?

And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. …

In both of them I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder, that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles, knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming?

1 John 3:1-10 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure. Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. You know that he appeared to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. …

Luke 10:30-37 Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion. He went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine.

On this day and every day –
God is in Control
. . . and His Grace is Sufficient, so . . .
Keep Looking Up
Hopefully, every Sunday, we can find something here that will build us up a little . . . give us a smile . . . and add some joy or peace, very much needed in all our lives.
“This day is holy to the Lord your God;
do not mourn nor weep.” . . .
“Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet,
and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared;
for this day is holy to our Lord.
Do not sorrow,
for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
God’s Glory
Everything God does is all for His sake
Yet man lusts for praise with each step he takes
The glory is God’s, not for another
As God chose us, as sisters and brothers
Man’s heart is wicked and so are his kin
So God gives His Son, our vic’try to win
In ancient times we were destroyed by flood
But now reconciled by Christ’s precious blood
Man’s thoughts, words and deeds are riddled with sin
So God gives His Spirit, our Helper within
To guide us along God’s paths every day
Bringing blessings and hope along our way
Due to the evil our bodies have been
We must be changed before heaven begins
So. with a shout on that Day’s last hour
We’ll be transformed by God’s holy power
No sorrow or death, no mourning or pain
Sin never enters this Celestial Plane
The wonders of heaven will never cease
Love will be everywhere with joy and peace
And this all of God, but nothing of me
Imprisoned by sin, and God set me free
And, oh, the joy as my rescued soul soars
Now at home with God and Christ evermore
So how should we live? Then what should we say?
Our God has given us all on this day
It’s for God’s glory that we are His heirs
His glory we’ll praise in word, deed and prayer
Thank you, Carl.
Nicely said, Carl.

Prayers for Kentucky.
Prayers for all who got hurt or badly stomped by these storms, but mathematically more prayers for Kentucky. I stupidly thought I was done caring last night when I knew it was past DePat, then got a harsh lesson in the morning.
I heard from KEA. Something went over them the other night. They were in the basement and still have a standing house, but they did get hit.
Oh, Lord God.
Saw a Kea post this morning, at Marica’s place.
Indeed, yes…those poor people.
😟 🙏 😔
When we first saw the drone footage of the damage, I said, “That was at least an F5.”
And they’ve now confirmed that it was an F5.
😩
I’m so glad you’re back and posting. I missed you. I always looked for your posting OT.
The left is going wild over that one. Anything to save Brandon.
I wonder… do they know his name isn’t really Brandon?
Likely answers to, BiteMe. 🙂
New article from Political Moonshine:
Fractured Leadership Part V: Full Spectrum on Flynn with Marco Polo, Bearing Down on Byrne and Problems for President Trump and Truth Social
By Political Moonshine on December 11, 2021
11 Dec 21
Intro: “Getting straight to brass tacks, I’ll leave it to you to have parts I-IV under your belt before digging in here. They can be found on the homepage and it’s linked above. In this fifth article, we expand our considerations on Michael Flynn as informed by the crew at Marco Polo while also returning to one of the best and most accurate analytical brains in Sundance at Conservative Treehouse. He draws down on Byrne. In the end, it spells trouble for President Trump and Truth Social and the rat appears to be Patrick Byrne. Lin Wood is applauding.
Full Spectrum on Flynn
The Marco Polo crew brings counterbalance to the Flynn argument and it makes our spectrum of understanding on Flynn a fuller one.
The gap between the average age in the Marco Polo crew and my 50 years has me older and more jaded. It makes for a good intellectual balance. Consequently though, my jaded cynicism had me reversing course on Flynn to spend the first four parts of this sub-series painting Michael Flynn as Deep State functionary. I’m standing pat.
I would more specifically qualify that as Flynn not being someone who got into it for bad reasons but rather as someone who got into it for all of the right reasons, but stayed in it too long and rising too far to the top to avoid being enmeshed in it.
I suggest that Flynn ascended through certain lanes over a long enough timeline and to the right ends such that it caused him to become progressively caught-up beyond reconciliation. At a point, he simply walked around the final corner from which there would not be any return.
When and where that was, I don’t know. But it happened.
In that light, I suppose Flynn’s acquired knowledge base, which is fatal to a whole bunch of people who matter, could have served as the basis for him to present as a timely whistleblower through the appropriate channels for someone of his position and title. He never did that at any time in his career as far as research goes.
This leaves only one real plausible explanation for Flynn’s actions compared to his words, it’s the one I’ve outlined and it includes further exposure relative to Sidney Powell, her alleged financial improprieties that envelop Byrne, too, and a reported ongoing federal investigation into them.
Worthy of consideration and as an alternative explanation[s] are the perspectives of the Marco Polo crew to the extent that could plug right into the existing work. Here they are summarized.
One stance is that the roles of Byrne and Flynn as Deep State operatives is undermined by the elaborate nature that would be required for optics. It’s overlaid by questioning the capabilities of those positioned to accomplish it. Room is left for being near-sighted caused by fog-of-war that is evidenced by the attacks on Wood.
In another, agreement is found with the first position by attributing 1-the Steele dossier and 2-any such Byrne/Flynn operation to different entities and people; not the same cohort. Attribution is further given to the same criminal enterprise that is behind COVID-19.
Moonshine has it all converged on the same continuum and it’s been that way for a very long time.
A third take threw cards down onto the table including the Brennan ace by saying none of them were Deep State; meaning Flynn, Powell and Byrne. It further identified the Deep State as John Brennan. Moreover, Flynn is defined here as a “selfish ego hothead.”
Another take ventured down a swampier trail enveloping the impactful think tanks and other K-Street pressures as the Deep State; and further qualifying our group’s inclusion in it with an if/then statement centered on whether there is evidence of it. It’s left there; as a question.
Follow-up remarks cite Flynn’s speeches in places like Aspen; further noting his hubris and his inability to decline invitations to speak speak to power brokers.
My take on the Marco Polo takes is that they are emblematic of similar considerations and perspectives to be found in our ongoing dialogue about Tucker Carlson.
That’s good. That’s the intellectual balance I cite. It’s evidence of consistently cogent thought on one side that parallels and compliments; but draw distinctions between, the work on the other side. This is how progress is made and truth is found.
It’s how America used to work.”
[continued at title link above]
I’m lost. Who is the Marco Polo crew?
I think they’re a group of people like PM who are connected to Garrett Ziegler.
They are mentioned several times here:
https://politicalmoonshine.com/2021/11/10/the-problematic-posteriori-backseat-driving-of-president-trump/
Garrett Ziegler is gratuitously arrogant to the point of being obnoxious. Something very off there.
Don’t know, see’s Wolf’s info below, but doesn’t feel a need to go where LW/MP/PM wants to take us. Too convoluted for most and is deep enough to be handled off script.
Any more I glance and watch. All of the palace intrigue, is beyond me. Not sure I care about this stuff, until it shakes out.
Exactly. Wasted friendly fire right now, IMHO.
Exactly.
I wasn’t sure about the Marco Polo crew either, but I surmise from the context that the Marco Polo crew is the core group of people he regularly interacts with to confirm data and investigative findings.
Garrett Ziegler/Marco Polo has been systematically publishing bits and pieces of the HB laptop on telegram. He seems to have completely ditched gab, since you can’t ban commentary and he cannot deal with ANYTHING contradictory. Jack Maxey (who will actually engage in a back/forth with commenters) was really in his face there for awhile – so he just took his ball and left.
They are a research group outing corruption. They have Hunter’s laptop.
Young guns.

This is a balanced article. Thank you for sharing. I always forget to keep up with PM.
PM fell off with me, when Q stopped posting. PM was good at deciphering Q. Which I never was. Always liked PM “even keel” approach in splaining stuff.
Do you mean Praying Medic ‘PM’, or Political Moonshine ‘PM’?
Praying Medic intended.
Political Moonshine. Always read these. At least the ones you post. Which IS ALWAYS appreciated!
Now I gotta go back and likely reconnect dots. Correctly this time.
I was talking about Political Moonshine. I don’t keep up with Praying Medic since I got kicked off Twitter. Briefly followed him on Telegram.
Yes. I should have tracked with Political Moonshine. Thanks.
Carl, I am keeping this one as a ready reference. You have given me a ready resource to some of my most favorite scriptures. I love this more than any other article you have done and I really enjoyed them all.
I enjoyed “God’s Glory” also.
Thank you so much.
Elizabeth
Many of us have been saying this, for months…and now Billy-Ghoul Gates is admitting it:
Looks like a great place to line up for a Trump parade!
So how many “Exit 185s” are “Exprwy”s?
We could probably figure out where the original pic was taken.
Better. We should lobby our state transportation & government officials to change all Exits from National Highways to read FJB regardless of the mile number.
Yeah, but then you couldn’t really tell them apart.
Some of them have to be named “Let’s Go Brandon,” some of them need to be named “AOC is a braying Donkey” Some “Hillary for Prison” some “Joe and Hoe”… etc.
😆 😂 😆
Makes me think of Joe Isuzu…
This:
Or maybe this 🙂
P.S. Good to see you back! Hope you’re feeling MUCH better!
I wonder if Joe talked with Putin for two hours and kept telling him to get two shots and a booster over and over and over. Putin wouldn’t tell us, if so.
Depends what was on the TelePrompTer.
New Zealand’s Tobacco Industry to Become Obsolete
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/armstrongeconomics101/regulation/new-zealands-tobacco-industry-to-become-obsolete/
Why is the left declaring war on tobacco, when they are all for drug legalization? On the face of it, it makes no sense.
So let’s break it down:
I’ve been saying here for years that tobacco has hidden health benefits that are inconvenient to the NWO agenda. Increases testosterone, natural MAOI and other mental health benefits, possible anti-COVID properties. If it caused as many health problems as they claimed, then the depopulation tyrants would make it more available, not less.
Agreed.
Weren’t we told…early in the covid saga…that tobacco smokers were not getting infected with it?
I think we were.
But it was hushed up.
I figured that they didn’t want people to go out and start smoking cigarettes as a way to stave off the virus.
Early on, in spring 2020, there was a French study that found smokers were being hospitalized for COVID at much lower rates than non-smokers. It spooked the French government enough that they quickly restricted the sale of nicotine patches. Then it all got memory-holed, and I haven’t seen any updates regarding nicotine and COVID since Spring 2020.

Thanks, Sadie!
😍🥰🤗
That would be an argument for nicotine…not for cigarettes.
I’ve always wondered how much of the undeniable health problems from smoking came from repeated smoke inhalation, as opposed to the nicotine itself.
I’d say that on balance it’s not worth starting the habit just to avoid COVID, but I imagine a bunch of people trying to quit would find it an excuse not to.
This. There are so many health hazards related to smoking. There must other ways to reap the benefits of tobacco or nicotine.
Vaping works fine, zero health issues, but like tobacco its cost prohibitive and takes a degree of experimentation to find what fits best for you. Not something anyone needs to get into unless they are trying avoid tobacco’s other health risks.
That in part is why I’m curious about patches. Are they problematic for health? If so how much in comparison to smoking?
As far as I know that’s just straight nicotine without any of the other crap that rides along in either tobacco smoke or tobacco as “chew.”
There is. Oral tobacco. The alleged cancer risks from it are based on a handful of studies in the 1980s and didn’t control for people who both smoked and used oral tobacco. Further studies have shown minimal difference in cancer rates oral tobacco users and non-users. The NYT of all places wrote a surprisingly balanced article about it:
https://archive.md/ZbrAu
Here’s another study about it:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12075196/
It’s an argument for tobacco overall. There’s more to the plant than just nicotine. The natural MAOI in tobacco, for example, doesn’t come from nicotine. That’s why nicotine patches and vaping aren’t 100% substitutes for the plant material.
But I otherwise agree. Smoke in the lungs is bad, and the flame retardants that the government mandates in cigarettes is probably causing more harm than the tobacco itself.
Okay, had to look up Mari and sees it’s marijuana. Yes, certainly right.
Everything else likely right too, makes zero sense but it does realign monies to their pocket books. Meanwhile Pelosi is about to slap a huge tax on all tobacco here as well, includes vape products. Wish they’d leave us all alone.
Not to mention that MJ makes people more passive, and, by extension, controllable and lest likely to resist totaliarian/strong-armed governments…
“According to estimates, the average smoker in New Zealand spends $238 per week on cigarettes, amounting to $12,400 annually.”
______________
$238 a WEEK?!?
Must be a rich man’s sport in New Zealand, like Yachting… 😂🤣😂
Taxes, my man … taxes. That’s the main reason that cigs are still legal in the USA.
I switched to little cigars. No additives and no cig taxes. VERY cheap.
And no, I don’t want to quit. So shaddup about it. 😶

Julian Assange Has Stroke In British Prison Day After Court OK’s Extradition To United States
Granted he’s been under immense stress for years, but it’s still suspicious, he has high powered enemies.
Also if he’s allowed access to outside news I think he’d have enough wisdom to refuse the jab, although there’s no mention whether he’d taken the clot shot.
By the time he is extradited he will not know who he is. Interesting send him to US for what? Anything he knows has been harvested from him.
Hope he didn’t get a clot shot or a booster…
Why does he put himself through it?
If he has dirt on people in high places, why not release it, and get the monkey off his back?
Once the information is out, there’s no reason to try to keep him silenced anymore, and besides, the people who have been after him will have a lot bigger things to worry about if he releases what he knows and can prove.
Yes, at this point the leverage has shifted (IMO) toward releasing the truth and letting the chips fall. Why the dance about Rich? Implying but not saying?
Dead man switch before death, holding some Aces for the Real dead man switch?
Thank you, Carl. Scripture is a balm, is a convictor, inspires and teaches us all at once.
Minority Rules: Scientists Discover Tipping Point for the Spread of Ideas
https://news.rpi.edu/luwakkey/2902
“Scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have found that when just 10 percent of the population holds an unshakable belief, their belief will always be adopted by the majority of the society. The scientists, who are members of the Social Cognitive Networks Academic Research Center (SCNARC) at Rensselaer, used computational and analytical methods to discover the tipping point where a minority belief becomes the majority opinion. The finding has implications for the study and influence of societal interactions ranging from the spread of innovations to the movement of political ideals.”
This has to be why [they] are so desperate to censor conservative beliefs and ideas.
We are more than 10%
Way more.
It’s why they hide us.
Yes we are but their 10% does a lot of damage.
And that’s what the Moslem Jihadis have known and done for centuries… cf. Europe… heading into round four…
All I need to know is the political ideology of the scientismists.
That’s the first thing to know.
If they are Leftists, or establishment order-takers, then it’s propaganda and not worth even reading.
And who else is going to engage in ‘studies’ like that?
Who funds that kind of thing?
Wow! This guy has no idea the size of the honeydo list that’s about to unfold.
Looks interesting. I would try it.
Needs bacon 🙂
Needs a garbage can. IMO.
Absolutely. Looks like the bread pudding at the all you can eat for 4.99 place.
Cørøna Pizza 😀
(from the corner(ed) Italianer, Salvatore Dali)…
Maple syrup on pizza?
Retch!!!
Sort of the anti-Atkins.
When I was growing up, an occasional “treat” was Karo syrup (essentially pure corn syrup) into which you dunked white bread. I shudder to think of it now.
It’s not Atkins that makes me make that statement.
Pizza shouldn’t be sweet.
Even a pineapple and ham pizza isn’t all that sweet, plus the pineapple has a bite to it that counters the sugar.
Then you’d HATE this 😎 (from Dr. Oetker, one of the biggest food conglomerates in Europe):
Fortunately, they cancelled it after a while:
https://www.stern.de/genuss/essen/dr–oetker-stoppt-produktion-von-schoko-pizza—zu-wenig-interesse-8959742.html
(Basically, after all the hype and adverts, what started off as a trendy pizza turned out to be a chocolate flop.)…
At some point, just make it a damned cookie.
At least Japan learned the lessons of WWII.
Germany is backsliding badly, and IMO it’s Switzerland that could stand a good nuking.
What makes me wonder is Germany is now intigrated with many different nationalities so where does this new fascist behavior come from? They are no longer so called pure German. People who immigrated bring their culture with them. It is puzzling to me.
Switzerland. Everybody thinks they’re just sitting off on the side, neutral. NOPE. They are the ones who were guaranteed to win World War II. They manipulate all of Europe and pretend to be outside of it, but they are the motherland of globalist bullshit. Brussels and The Hague are merely outposts.
That’s why I say – a few nukes in Switzerland, making sure the cabal families are either gone or scraping mud off their beets with the rest of us, and all of the globalist crap is GONE. Forever.
Yes they all hide in Switzerland.
God Help The World!

Grand Imam of Al-Azhar Ahmed El-Tayyeb Plans Major Chrislam Update With Vatican Ahead Of 2022 Opening Of Abrahamic Family House
.
The Document of Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together, also known as Chrislam, was signed in February 2019 by Pope Francis and El-Tayyeb in Abu Dhabi with the aim of reinforcing the principle of coexistence among religions. The document is the foundation for the planned construction of the Interfaith Abrahamic Family House that is scheduled to open next year in Abu Dhabi, comprising a church, a mosque and a synagogue. During Saturday’s meeting, El-Tayyeb said the fraternity document has proposed solutions to the problems facing the world today from a religious standpoint, according to a statement by Al-Azhar. Al-Azhar’s relations with the Vatican remain an effective model for spreading tolerance and peace and fighting extremism, hate, wars and disputes, El-Tayyeb said.

How to make Bergoglio a non factor in public life….
No, the goal is to water down Christianity and make people believe everyone worships the same god. It’s globalism for religion. It’s to make all one.

Dear Post Office: What happened to the stamps this year?
.
As the mail piles up during the holidays, I don’t know how many others have noticed this. But the United States Postal Service decided not to issue religious holiday stamps this year. I always look forward to this little addition to my cards and was wondering when they would drop. They didn’t.
.
There are new secular stamps for the season. This one features various scenes depicting “A Visit from St. Nick.”
.
https://thedeaconsbench.com/dear-post-office-what-happened-to-the-stamps-this-year/
Surprised they don’t have one with Øbløwhøle’s picture on it, “A Visit From Old Nick”…
(“Old Nick” is British slang for the Devil)…
Yep. I asked at the PO and they said they didn’t have any.
Heck, look at Walmart….nary a creche scene to be had. I went through their “Christ”mas section and found two….two…little wooden signs that said Silent Night, Holy Night and Oh holy night the stars are brightly shining.
That was it. Secularization to the max.
MY husband told me Post Office has Holiday stamps. They had them out on Saturday.
Everyone watch this.
This might give you a different perspective on what, on what is going on re. Lin Wood, Gen Flynn, Patrick Byrne etc

BE MY VOICE
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.

Just remember, boys n girls — all of the ‘benefits’ given to illegal aliens by the FJB administration can be (and should be) revoked by the next Congress. Of course, pResident * will veto such a bill but that doesn’t mean it should not be passed.
Vetoes can be overridden if there are enough votes.
On the way home from the downtown Mass gig, I stopped in a grocery store of one of the local chains, and at long last…NO MASK REQUIRED!
Yea.
Although, they are strongly recommended. I was one of three people without one in the place.
I hope the tide is turning. Their removing the mandate while Omicron is “raging” is a good sign. I never wear masks in stores that recommend them.
If you don’t have a mask with you, you remove the possibility of compliance.
As I have learned, that doesn’t prevent some employee from reaching their filthy Covid-covered hand into a mask box, taking one out, and offering it to you.
That’s when you say “Are you serious? You’re touching BOTH sides of the mask with your bare hands, holding it between your thumb and fingers, and now you want me to put that up to my face, and breathe in?
Does that make sense to you?
Have you actually thought about any of this, what you’re doing?”
The last person I said that to finally broke.
Her shoulders slumped, she looked down in dejection, and said “I know, it’s just our policy”.
I win again 😁
You know it is not the employee you need make feel bad he/she has nothing to do with it. Maybe ask for the manager?
The employee probably has nothing to do with it, and I agree about telling the manager, but the more employees and “little people” who hear from the public, the better. They will sometimes communicate with management that the customers are not happy. And it spreads the message of sanity to people we would not normally come in contact with. 😊
You got a point 🙂
Better stated:
It’s time for the employees to stand up to the managers.
No employees = no managers = no business
The manager might actually “solve” the problem in some way that makes the employee even more miserable…like requiring them to wear gloves to hand out masks.
Never thought about that.
Last Monday I was in Cosco and yes wore gloves. I do not know if people washed their hands ?
So true. That’s why the manager should get a separate speech geared to his weakness’s in bowing down to these ridiculous dictates . When you leave every one is happily chastised. 😎
The first go-round here, I felt sorry for the employees, I really did. Now I don’t. Every business in my area has help-wanted signs, reduced hours, and closures because of lack of help. If the employees got together and stood up for themselves, they wouldn’t have to wear a mask. THEY are more important to the business than following a stupid mandate. If they choose compliance, that’s on them now.
Good point
“You know it is not the employee you need make feel bad he/she has nothing to do with it.”
______________
But the employee is tip of the spear, the contact point between policy and the public. 😁
How is their excuse any different than “I was just following orders?”
.
“Maybe ask for the manager?”
_____________
Like everywhere else I go, whoever confronts me is the person I have to contend with. If the manager happens to be around and interjects him or herself, then I’ll deal with the manager.
But there’s no point in asking for the manager, because the manager isn’t going to change store policy for me, even if I pin him down and make him cry uncle. 🤣
I don’t expect their policy to change, I just expect them to make an exception to their policy, or I’ll go somewhere else. Very simple.
With few exceptions (doctors, dentist, etc.), we can usually go somewhere else without too much difficulty, somewhere that wants our business, if the place of business we’re in won’t make an exception.
Normally I’m polite and accommodating, but these aren’t normal times. It’s a war, and it’s personal, every day.
I don’t know how else to deal with it, and if I hadn’t made refusal to comply a blanket approach from the beginning, then I would have had to pick and choose when to comply and when not to. And knowing human nature, I would have ended up choosing whatever was most convenient, which means I would be choosing compliance all the time.
And I just can’t do it.
Going along with something you know is wrong feels dirty. It’s a matter of conscience. You know it when something violates your conscience, and no one has a right to coerce anyone to violate their conscience.
They don’t think twice about putting us (their customers) in such an uncomfortable position.
So for as long as this goes on, I won’t think twice about returning the favor, and we’ll see who blinks first.
I started out winning, and I’m only getting better at it 👍 😁
Good on you 🙂 🙂
Wonderful!
Most places around here have a serve yourself plastic box at the door.
I’m sure the last hand that went in the box for a useless mask was nice and clean… I’m sure the entire serve-yourself box is sterile and germ-free… because they care… 🤣 😂 🤣
3 OBSERVATIONS FOR THE 3rd ADVENT SUNDAY
…..all linked…
.
.
.
1) Funny how the Wood/Lynn controversy broke out JUUUUUST before the Ghilaine Maxwell trial took place. Got MAGA folk arguing with one another, sucking them into classic “I’m right/you’re wrong” debate.
Very distracting and time consuming.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
2) In fact, I’ve seen exponentially more about that controversy here in these pages than anything about the Maxwell trial (or what came out of it).
There were 10x more postings about that than anything related to Maxwell.
This is a FACT.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

3) Interesting to note, too, who has been pushing that controversy (both here at Qtree as well as on the web) vs. anything about the Maxwell trial.

BONUS OBSERVATION IN ANTICIPATION OF THE 4TH ADVENT SUNDAY:
Postings can’t be erased here at QTree, so anyone can easily look back and see who has been pushing what, and when…
…which is something Wolf might want to do. In fact, he should. After all, we know the enemy actually pays and employs people to be controlled opposition.
Q: Who posted extensively about the Wood/Flynn controversy, but said very little (if anything) about the Maxwell trial?
.
.
Matthew 7:15-16
and
Matthew 10:16-17
Also….
Ephesians 5:11
I don’t see any significance to the fact that the Lin Wood controversy is getting more attention than the Maxwell trial. There are no cameras in the trial. We all know most of what went on with her and Epstein, at least the parts that the public is allowed to see. If you want to bring something Maxwell-related to our attention, please do.
The Lin Wood controversy is a different matter. It started with a Rittenhouse lie about Wood, then Wood’s friends — whom we believe to be patriots — not only not standing up for Wood, but not even talking with him about the fact that they publicly took Rittenhouse’s side and slandered Wood when he asked them to meet with him. Something is wrong, and I don’t believe it’s merely someone stirring the pot with the goal of dividing patriots.
Please explain, in plain terms, who you’re referring to and what you’re insinuating.
I’d rather he didn’t. I know exactly what he’s insinuating, it’s largely true, and I’m choosing to do nothing, because even FG&C posting what he did is INFLAMING THE STUPID of that stupid fight.
That’s for sure.
Not, it’s not “for sure”, as I pointed out.
I stated my opinion, and I stand by it.
Of course I’m not going to, otherwise I would have.
As long as you know, I’m good. Other interested parties can now go and look for themselves to see who we are talking about. Most won’t due to laziness, but that’s fine. You are the one who matters.
I’ll also say…in my defense….the Wood/Flynn debate itself has nothing whatsoever to do with the topic of my post, it is merely incidental to it, so my post should not inflame anything having to do with that debate.
I have a different take on it. I have kept up with the whole situation on both sides.
I was wrong to think that we could disagree and keep moving.
Very sad.
You weren’t wrong. We can disagree and keep moving. Stand your ground….please. I can’t speak for Wolf, but my understanding is that, since this is his site, then unless he addresses something with you, your input is welcome.
You don’t appear to have a very high opinion of the people here. It’s a wonder you read and post. You chewed us out for not posting enough Wictor. Then we were wrong for not regularly posting what Sidney Powell says. Now it’s the Maxwell trial. And we’re lazy to boot. The only controversy I see being stirred up comes from your direction.
Sometimes we are our better selves, and sometimes we are not.
Sometimes there are factors influencing us not to be our better selves, and they go away. And then we are our better selves again.
Happens to everyone.
God bless us, everyone.
Some of us won’t because it’s a waste of valuable time.
However, I do agree that the bread and circus aspect to it is manufactured. One of the telegram accounts I follow has identified a pattern that begins, actually, with Stew Peters.
Ghislaine Maxwell…at this point, I am convinced that it’s a script being fed to us, and none of the really good stuff is in it.
Wolf, please find someone else to do Fridays. Please remove me as an author.
God bless and take care everyone.
Grandma, I don’t think this is about you. I think I know who it is about, and it is a “stupid fight,” as Wolf says. But this is why I asked FG&C to state exactly what and whom he is talking about. People begin to wonder, more division is sown, and there are hard feelings.
I hope you will reconsider. Your input and authorship are very important and much appreciated. This whole thing is so uncalled for. I could say a lot more but will refrain.
Wolfmoon has provided a place here for free speech. Please stay and continue being an author.
“Grandma, I don’t think this is about you.”

Agreed 👍

“I hope you will reconsider. Your input and authorship are very important and much appreciated.”

Agreed!
I just figured he was talking about me again, because he enjoys my attention so much 🤣😂🤣
I have not the faintest idea who he is talking about.
A good night’s sleep will clarify things.
Please, no, Grandmaintexas. It is a tempest in a teapot.
Please do not let others get under your skin it is not worth it. It is not about you they are projecting. Never take on things that are not yours to take.
I love your segment on Fridays and look forward to it. Each of you Authors bring your own personality and experience. ❤
If you walk out, they win.
I’m playing catch-up reading around here & am very sad to see this as a possible outcome of this ongoing “controversy”. Your Friday Wolf’s Pub posts are consistently Wonderful!!!
Different strokes for different folks is a Good Thing, I believe. We all potentially have valuable insights to contribute to the Q-Tree, w/ yours being right up there, imo (& I’m Not Catholic).
It seems (to me) that FG&C might be referring to someone w/ a handle ending in “mom” who sometimes comes across similarly to MagaMom in approach, at least to me…
I’ve always been thankful for Wolf’s graciousness in allowing me, a Q “agnostic”, to have such access to the Q-Tree. He seems to be able to lead the Wolf Pack in the right direction & is not overly bothered by some of the controversies that arise in the ranks.
Turn up the heat of the refiner’s fire so we can become a more purified & valuable gold as we all work on the iron sharpens iron aspects of forging that more perfect union!!!
God Bless YOU Grandma & guide you in His paths (which I sincerely hope will continue with your ongoing authorship of Wolf’s Pub & other gems).
In Jesus’ Love ❤
NO MA’AM!!
REQUEST DENIED!!
YOU BELONG HERE!!!!!
❤ 🤗 😘 🤗 ❤ G-MA ❤ 🤗 😘 🤗 ❤
What is “largely true”? That certain posters are being deliberately divisive? They have ulterior motives?
Wolf Moon
FG&C making nameless insinuations like that IS THE WAY OF A SPLITTER.
FG&C is doing that which he paints another of doing.
Cowardly hiding behind a nameless insinuation allows FG&C to then deny the damage he has caused.
Way back FG&C abused every one on here and you, and after a time came back.
Your site, your decisions, but IMO you have handled this badly resulting in the loss of Grandmaintexas.
I have better things to do with my time, than scroll past a jumped up taxi driver.
Count me out also.
He occasionally goes on a crusade to get someone or other kicked off.
He’s tried it on me.
The best way to give him the finger is to stay.

Or laugh at him, since the best he can do is play the ‘straight man’ in a comedy routine.
Once you understand that he’s one dimensional, that he only has one move (i.e., to attack people personally), it’s easy to put a rake in front of him and then watch him step on it repeatedly 👍😂
Oh, I do plenty of that, too.
“Wolf Moon

Very much so, regularly.
And when anyone calls him out on it, he accusing them of being… a FED 😲😂
Exactly the kind of thing a glowie mole would do, of course.

But that’s just letting him win, when defeating his personal attacks is as easy as reflexively calling his bluff, and putting the ball back in his court.
It’s not like he can do anything with it at that point, besides call us more names… 😂🤣😂
“Please explain, in plain terms, who you’re referring to and what you’re insinuating.”

He never does, he just likes to leave it hanging there, suggestively… insinuatingly… 😁
Wow. This is just insane.
“2) In fact, I’ve seen exponentially more about that controversy here in these pages than anything about the Maxwell trial (or what came out of it).There were 10x more postings about that than anything related to Maxwell.
This is a FACT.”

I missed all of your posts about the Maxwell trial, do you have links?
“3) Interesting to note, too, who has been pushing that controversy (both here at Qtree as well as on the web) vs. anything about the Maxwell trial.”

Well talk about the Maxwell trial already.
What have you got?

Prayers for Kea and Wheatie2. Also, Carl, thank you for all these wonderful scriptures.
Saw this today. Interesting on two levels.
The first is obvious as it is the subject of the piece…

Even more interesting, to me, is that the very same judges involved in a LOT of the DC corruption, and highlighted by SD, are involved in these cases and sentencings….
.
Rudolph Contreras (who is besties with Lisa Page and Peter Strzok, who was supposed to preside over the case against Flynn but “was recused“ and replaced by the odious Emmitt Sullivan)

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2020/02/20/roger-stone-gets-40-month-prison-sentence/
James Boasberg (current head of the FISA court who hired former DOJ National Security Division head, Mary McCord, as amici curiae advisor to the court)

(Note: I hope SD sees this. The involvement of these judges in these matters is no less a smoking gun than their involvement in other matters)
WOW. That’s a find. That means it’s that same tight little circle of corruption. SICK.
Yes.
All part of the cabal narrative building and maintenance.
Then again, they wouldn’t be able to get away with all they have without key, corrupt judges being in place.

Sadly the Jan 6 people got so emotionally involved writing their raw thoughts on Internet and it is now condemning them maybe even if they did nothing ?
Internet can be our friend but also our enemy. Never let raw emotions guide the postings.
The Judges have been waiting for this their chance to shine what they honed their craft in. I say no more 😠
Here’s a compelling argument to stop using the term “unvaccinated” and start using “vaccine free” instead.
I like the term “pureblood”…
…because:
1) I have been vaccinated with vaccines that actually work, so I am not “vaccine free”
2) C19 “vaccines” aren’t vaccines (real vaccines actually work)
3) Big Pharma isn’t going to develop a true C19 vaccine absent being forced to do so (assuming, of course, that they could), and
4) due to these last two reasons, I’d love to see people get away from using the word “vaccine” as it relates to C19 altogether.
Some months back, someone QTree, suggested quit using vaccination, start using more accurate INJECTION, I’ve largely adopted it.
Dunno who that wise individual was. Maybe Gail or GA/FL.
— Another more fitting label follows.
Have also disposed of
fake news, in favor of Propaganda News. (ht FG&C).Someone else, I think used Pravda. So I interchangeably also use Pravda News or Pravda Propaganda News.
I had a comment all typed out about using the term “injection,” but then I had to walk away from the computer unexpectedly and you beat me to it. Hivemind, lol.
🙂
Post it anyway. Always look for your insights.
Sadie, You may very well have suggested using injection. I am sure it was one of the gals here. Exactly who, I dunno. It’s that slipping memory thing. 🙂
I don’t remember who first started using the word “injections” here, but I’m glad to see others using it!
“Injection” sounds more clinical and emphasizes that people are having something placed in their bodies.
Prefect term for when referring to the vaxxxers. The Injected.
“Group W” from Alice’s Restaurant…
I think Arlo Guthrie had it right:
I call myself “non-GMO.” I even made a t-shirt.
I agree what a wonderful idea. 🙂
“If someone asks if you’re vaccinated, cheerfully reply to them with a smile, ‘I’m vaccine free,’, or ‘I’m happy to say, I’m still vaccine free.”
____________
Still too much defense, and not enough offense.
If someone asks if I’m vaccinated, my response is “No, are you?”, and it’s as much an accusation as it is a question.
If the person asking the question is not vaccinated either, then they know immediately that we’re on the same page, because they generally ask with trepidation, but I answered with confidence.
And if the person asking *is* vaccinated, and thought to attack me if I was not, then I’ve put them on the defensive, which is the opposite of what they expected to happen. They meant to attack, but I don’t like playing defense, so I always choose offense.
Somebody has to play defense, and it’s not gonna be me.
So from that moment forward, all they can do is play defense 😂
So proclaiming I’m ‘vaccine free’ is fine, so long as my would-be antagonist doesn’t get away without knowing he’s a clot-shot goof 😁
Responding with “Which vaccine?” is a good way to throw them off balance, if you’re up for that.
I would be up for it, but they can put the ball back in my court with multiple replies.
They could say “Moderna”, “J&J”, “Pfizer” or generic “Covid vaxx”.
Then I’m in the position of answering again, and that’s playing defense.
I want to be the one asking the questions, and the objective is to maneuver them into a position where they can’t answer without conceding the argument.
Essentially, forcing them to close their mouth.
And that’s game, set and match… 😁

Representative Chinaboy is a real P.O.S.
I’ve got $100 says he thinks that Chinee honey pot actually liked him.
I ain’t takin’ that bet! I like my five $20s right where they are right now!
My bank is starting to preferentially dispense $50s at its ATMs. It does give you the chance to change it, but it’s a pain in the ass to have to hit the plus button next to the $20 multiple times on the screen.
I have more respect for what comes out of Fartwell’s ass than his mouth. At least the gas is honest.
Regarding Kentucky, does anyone know a good place to donate to help them? I haven’t donated to the Red Cross in a long time.

Thank you.
Over at Marica’s place they are trying to set up a donation site for Kentucky.
Seems they had one and it got cancelled.
My guess is they have either set another up, or will in the morning.
I’ll take a look in the morning. Post here, whatever I find.
Please, find another way to give. The Red Cross is the cabal’s piggy bank.

80 year old Ann Rice died of a stroke. Yes she was vaccinated.

Adds that I did read many of her books. Not the vampire one’s though, that concept was dead to me. Nice to hear she changed and that there might be a couple of books I’ve not read that might go on the list now that they have brought to my attention.
She completely did a 180. Moved to rancho mirage in socal, wrote a book series on Jesus, fictional.
Yes, it lasted from 2005 to 2008 when she wrote these.
Then this.
“My faith in Christ is central to my life. My conversion from a pessimistic atheist lost in a world I didn’t understand, to an optimistic believer in a universe created and sustained by a loving God is crucial to me. But following Christ does not mean following His followers. Christ is infinitely more important than Christianity and always will be, no matter what Christianity is, has been, or might become.
Then, ten more titles that seem (don’t know for sure, didn’t read) to reflect her normal fare. Apparently she will be interred in the family mausoleum at the Metairie Cemetery, New Orleans (seems reminiscent of the one depicted in the May Fair Witches Saga).
Just lots of strange and conflicted people out there, and she was one.
The first book, Interview with the Vampire was fascinating. The next couple, meh, and then I quit.
Like many books that are supposed to be “horror stories,” there was a lot more to her writing than that. But she tended to push the boundaries too far, in my opinion. Got ahead of her skis.
The best thing I read that she wrote (and I have not read the Jesus stories) was Cry to Heaven, about the Italian castrati. I may have to read the biblical ones now.
She later left Christianity.
Just saw this posted at Tore’s telegram.
Murderers.
That is exactly what it amounts too.
Exactly the same letter I got.
The labeling on the medicine from our friends in India says “use as directed by a physician.”
This is the loophole….the excuse…..they are using to confiscate, and destroy, these shipments.
Turns out OTC meds in the US must have directions for use on them (ie. “take x daily every x hours, no more than x in x hours“). Because the shipped meds do not have this, this is what gives the FDA (ie. Big Pharma’s employees) the legal authority to intercept these meds.
Not illegal to buy or have shipped to you…..the safety of Ivermectin is well known and established. If the labeling had directions for use the FDA would not have the legal authority to stop the shipments. BUT, this is beyond the control of the folks at IndiaMart….the labeling would have to be changed by the manufacturers in India.
They are evil
Yes. We have plenty, but am always looking to add. It looks like the compounding route for the moment. I have the Rx, and will pick up.

The media need it so Biden could get his Global Warming digs in.
We can’t even rely on their reporting on a natural disaster. The media is so politicized that it’s dead, as media. It’s just an arm of the Left.

Dead Media.
I like that 😁
We’ve now killed close to TWICE as many kids from the vaccine as have died from COVID (substack.com)
Sadly. “Twice”, will all to soon become steadily higher multiples. As kids are ignorantly injected, and die. Totally unnecessary deaths.
I went on a tangent from that link to this:
Dr. Eric Topol is Substack’s newest Writer in Residence
The comment section on that link is hilarious. Meanwhile, Dr. Topol’s substack page has all of the comments turned off, lol. Wimp. These cabal tools love to bully the plebs, but can’t take the heat themselves.

https://citizenfreepress.com/breaking/japan-study-vaccines-pose-7x-times-higher-death-risk-than-covid-for-young-people/
A review in the most recent issue of Med Check, a bimonthly bulletin published by the Japan Institute of Pharmacovigilance (NOPJIP) as a member of the International Society of Drug Bulletins (ISDB), found that the death risk of the jabs may even be as high as 40 times greater for young people.
Med Check cited three reports of individuals between the ages of 20 and 29 who died within days or weeks of vaccination, estimating the death rate for that age group at 3.2 per 1 million. One of the apparent vaccine deaths was that of a 27-year-old professional baseball player, who collapsed eight days after getting jabbed and died after a month-long battle in a hospital.
The bulletin noted that the number of deaths may be higher, in part because the Japanese government only requires reports of suspected vaccine injuries within 28 days of injection. The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare received a total of 1,308 reports of deaths after COVID vaccination by October 15.
Even with just three cases, the risk of a fatal reaction to the vaccine significantly outpaced the danger of the virus for young people, who have a 0.6-0.8 per 1 million chance of dying from the disease in Japan, according to Med Check. Just seven of 11.8 million Japanese people in their 20s died of COVID by June 2021, and 10 died by mid-August.
Risk of death from vaccination was more than seven times higher as of June, and nearly five times higher by August 11, compared to the risk presented by coronavirus, Med Check determined. Over several years, death risk for vaccination among those in their 20s could range as high as 40 times greater than for COVID-19.
Med Check also pointed out that there were no COVID deaths in Japan under the age of 20 until September 2021. “If children in this age group are vaccinated, it may cause death,” the bulletin warned.
“Even if children and adolescents and people in their 20s are infected, it is naturally mild or asymptomatic because they have less SARS-CoV-2 receptor ACE2 than adults especially old people. It is a ridiculous to consider vaccination for school children.”
Between 0.00 and 0.03 percent of COVID cases in the United States under age 18 have resulted in deaths, and zero healthy children between the ages of 5 and 18 died of the virus during the first 15 months of the pandemic in Germany, a recent study found. The survival rate for COVID-19 has been estimated at no lower than 99.7 percent for all age groups under 60 years old.
I take issue with the use of the word “we”, unless the article was written by the Biden admin.
This is how they’re dividing us.
How about we off the old guy, and split the dough?
That’s funny.

From Anonymous Conservative:
“A Russian virologist says the Omicron variant appears to him to be designed in a lab to be super-weakened, so it will spread immunity instead of disease. If there is a shadow war, and Cabal needed the virus for one of its plans, this is how it might look if a counter-force was trying to thwart them covertly.”
