Dear KMAG: 20220307 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic / The Truth Is Coming Out About COVID Deaths / The Decisive Battle / An Exemplary Peer Review

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.

Hang in there, Trumpy Bear! You’re going back to the White House!!!

No more of this Sleepy Creepy guy, provoking needless wars to fill Democrat coffers!

The Business At Hand

This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get THROUGH IT, OVER IT, and BEYOND IT.

The Rules

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

In an image…….

Try to make it real.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

You may also pray for our enemies, many of whom were grievously harmed by their foolish choice to virtue signal with the experimental gene therapy vaccines, which were snuck upon all of us by the monstrous WEF, Pfizer and Moderna, despite our warnings, and because this corrupt administration, media, and social media suppressed the truth.

MUSICAL INTERLUDE

For your listening enjoyment, and general encouragement, we continue Wheatie’s tradition of fine music videos, shipped fresh from the seas of information by our intrepid authors.

First, some “epic” mandolin…..

Well, let’s get that mandoleen a little more TOE-TAPPIN’ and a FOOT STOMPIN’!

And finally, a song from a movie you probably never saw – Captain Corelli’s Mandolin.

OK – we can’t leave you with that downer. Check THIS happy song out!

Feel ready? GOOD!

Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

For the first time – no image here.

OK, just ONE of many:

I refer you to a series of ABSOLUTELY AWESOME memes posted by Robert Malone, here:

LINK: https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/sunday-strip-887?utm_source=url&s=r

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

(Read down to the fine print.)

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.

Three Great Articles

These are three great pieces you really need to see.

The Truth Is Coming Out About COVID Deaths.

The Epoch Times. Updated: March 2, 2022

“Hospitals receive payments for testing every patient for COVID, every COVID diagnosis and every ‘COVID death,’ as well as any time they use remdesivir and mechanical ventilation.”

Not only is that a great article, that is highly referenced.. It very accurately goes through history and malfeasance by our government and the hospitals. This article is a must read. It also has an extensive list of references at the end.

You may hit a paywall, but you can take Malone’s word for it, if you do.

H/T whoever it was who found this gem! (I forgot)

How “Let’s Go Brandon” Demonstrates the Failure of The Regime’s “Decisive Victory” Strategy Against Us

This may seem like it’s the usual, hand-waving, “defeat is victory” battered-conservative abuse-porn, coated with addictive hopium, but IMO it’s actually some “real” hopanite ore, suitable for creating hopium-based nukes, and depleted hopium bullets.

Basically, a comparison of the “establishment victory over Trump” to Pearl Harbor.

They have not won.

Rather, they have earned themselves an ASS-WHOOPIN’.

To be delivered when we are actually READY.

ENJOY.

from the desk of Robert Malone

Robert Malone Performs/Explains A Real Live Peer Review

This is actually REALLY GREAT, and a UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY. You will almost NEVER see this, unless you get an advanced science degree, and in that case, you will likely be taught all the bad habits of somebody not nearly as good and experienced in “grantsmanship”, patenting, and publication, as is Robert W. Malone.

Malone even does it in plain, common, sensible language that anybody can understand. You will literally see how to “talk back” to HIGHLY credentialed scientists making mistakes, showing bias, sticking to narratives, and just being people who you should NOT trust.

This is RESTORATIVE to real science. I just cannot praise this enough.

Peer review example: “Effectiveness of the BNT162b2 vaccine among children”

Having written hundreds of requested peer reviews, I am offering my unsolicited one.

LINK: https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/peer-review-example-effectiveness?s=r

What makes this even more powerful, is a slightly earlier post by Malone, in which he exhorts ALL people to USE COMMON SENSE in doubting the media on things in which they don’t have expertise, because the FAKE NEWS is demonstrably WRONG on the things in which you DO have expertise, and you REMEMBER those cases, and therefore you are absolutely entitled to extend that skepticism to ALL THINGS THE PRESS SAYS.

And that would include the SCIENCE PRESS.

Don’t be Brain Dead

In other words, think for yourself

LINK: https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/dont-be-brain-dead?utm_source=url&s=r

The combination of these two articles is just DEADLY to scientific authoritarianism.

Malone is quickly turning into the Ben Franklin of this little revolution.

Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day:

rapprochement

noun

  1. A reestablishing of cordial relations, as between two countries.
  2. The state of reconciliation or of cordial relations.
  3. A coming or bringing together or into accord; establishment of harmonious relations; reconciliation.

pronunciation

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/pronunciation/english/rapprochement

(rä′prôsh-mäN′) (raprɔʃmɑ̃)  (ˌræp roʊʃˈmɑ̃)  (ræˈprɒʃmɑ̃ːŋ)

Please note that there are many variations on how English speakers actually pronounce most of the word, but the lifted pinky / beltway bandit / light-in-the-loafers silent T is “supposed to be” preserved in English, and the result sounds very French.

Therefore, if you want to stay grounded and keep your “man of the people” cover, you can intentionally mispronounce the word JUST A LITTLE by including that final ‘t’ ever so slightly (“MAUWNt”).

Alternatively, over-emphasize the open mouth ‘MAUW[n]’ at the end to almost comedic levels, and you sound like a real American who took French in high school. But it’s still probably best to avoid ‘reproach-ment’, unless you really want to make sure people think you don’t know a lick of French.

Used in a sentence:

The convergence was noted by statesmen and scholars of the time, but the term “Great Rapprochement” to refer to a distinct historical phenomenon may have been coined by the American historian of Anglo-American relations Bradford Perkins in his 1968 study of the period, The Great Rapprochement: England and the United States 1895–1914.

Slightly misused (and optionally mispronounced) in a Lindsey Graham joke:

“He was above rapprochement.”

ENJOY THE SHOW

Have another great week!

Conspiracy to Suppress Competing Science – The Case Against Bill & Melinda Gates

I think it is now quite clear that Bill and Melinda Gates need to get the hell out of science and medicine for the good of humanity.

I am going to show you why.

I am not saying that Bill Gates is doing anything new. I am saying that he moved his disastrous “Windows Effect” from information technology – which Gates corrupted and hindered with his inferior product and short-sighted greed – to human health – where Gates is doing the exact same thing, only with more obvious damage to society and individuals.

I’m going to start at the END – with the most recent bit of evidence, which finally compelled me to write this article.

New Ivermectin Study — Same 70% Reduction in Deaths

Not using Ivermectin killed about 688,000 Americans

Igor Chudov

LINK: https://igorchudov.substack.com/p/new-ivermectin-study-same-70-reduction?s=r

This isn’t just a 70% reduction in mortality of COVID-19 relative to no treatment. This is 70% reduction relative to treatment with Anthony Fauci’s “gold standard of care”, remdesivir.

Actually – let’s take a bit of a sidebar and then a hypostrophe (return from a parenthetical discussion) on the subject of remdesivir.

Now – as I have said before, and I mean said before repeatedly, and again and again, remdesivir AT BEST does nothing…..

LINK: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2781959

ARCHIVE: https://archive.ph/FrP5h

…..but more likely, it’s worse, and remdesivir is killing advanced hospitalized COVID-19 cases by mimicking the damage from advanced COVID-19 itself.

The Murder of Veronica Wolski by Fauci and Gilead’s Zyklon D

There will be justice for Veronica Wolski, because we will DEMAND IT. And until there IS justice, we will drag the CRIMES of Anthony Fauci and Gilead “Pharmaceuticals” and their SLEAZY ASSOCIATES thorough the headlines, over and over, until people SPIT IN THEIR PATH as they walk down the streets. So where do we begin? …

NIH and Gilead Blamecasting Remdesivir Renal Toxicity to an Excipient

Well, they can lock us out of The Q Tree, but they can’t stop the truth from getting out. Enjoy a post first over on The U Tree and now HERE. Here is a quickie in my WAR ON REMDESIVIR. Fellow Treeper barkerjim dropped an interesting document today, from back in July, which showed the …

Hat tip DP…. wait for the remdesivir part…..

This is actually quite analogous to what the “medical establishment” did with mercury back in the day, when calomel and other mercury medicines killed and injured MILLIONS of Americans in the 19th century.

DEAR KAG: 20220304 – The Pub is OPEN / Mercury and Arsenic as the mRNA and Remdesivir of Pre-Fauci America

The Pub is OPEN! We are NOT serving mercurials or arsenicals today – or EVER – but we ARE serving MODERN SUBSTITUTES like penicillin – to the non-allergic, of course. While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE. Christmas Spirit And now, the rules of …

But let’s return to BILL GATES.

Fauci and remdesivir are another story. Bill Gates is all about the vaccines. If Gates is kicking remdesivir under the table, I would not be surprised, but I tend to doubt it, because Gates seems to respect OTHER corrupt players, to some extent.

The point is, this brand new study CONFIRMS what we know from many other studies – that ivermectin really does reduce death from COVID-19 – and that it does so substantially.

Not only THAT, but the “70% reduction” figure has appeared MULTIPLE TIMES before, and is not only confirming in its magnitude, but is also extremely indicting of Bill Gates, as we shall see in a moment.

One “70%” case is cited in the link – a recent Malaysian study – where is appears that the authors deliberately misinterpreted their data, effectively HIDING a 70% reduction in mortality by ivermectin, by claiming the “p” value of the results meant they were insignificant, being only 91% instead of 95% or 99% (basically, the study was too small).

This “capture and kill by underpowering the study” is a NIFTY TRICK, which was also discussed by Steve Kirsch, and which I have covered previously.

DEAR KAG: 20220225 – … Failure of Socialized Science and Peer Review Exposed in a JAMA-Published Ivermectin Study

The big picture, however, is that (1) authors have a variety of means of making a paper produce conclusions that are completely at odds with the data, and (2) they are using such techniques to satisfy their sponsors when the “science” doesn’t give the results hoped for by the sponsors.

Don’t believe me?

It turns out there is ANOTHER 70% reduction ivermectin paper we need to talk about.

And in that case, there is strong evidence that BILL GATES is behind the effective SCIENTIFIC BURYING of the result.

Hat tip to eilert and Sundance for this one.

This is the biggie. This is where Bill Gates showed his true self to the planet.

TIME and PERSISTENCE have narrowed down WHERE and WHEN it was, that ivermectin was blocked from becoming a universal treatment for COVID-19.

This work is mostly due to Tess Lawrie, who was one of the speakers (from England, via internet video) at the Defeat the Mandates rally in Washington, DC.

Sundance at CTH brings us the story HERE.

MORE:

LINK: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/03/04/dr-andrew-hill-the-man-who-killed-millions/

The article frames a video by Tess Lawrie, which, as Sundance rightly states, is STUNNING. Yes, it is somewhat professionally produced, but speaking as a scientist, this is one of the most insightful and direct explorations of institutional scientific misconduct which has ever been put on the table.

LINK: https://rumble.com/vwg569-a-letter-to-andrew-hill-dr-tess-lawrie-ivermectin-suppression-killed-millio.html

It is shockingly clear from this video that ivermectin was saving OVER 70% – in fact 75% – of hospitalized patients who would have otherwise died. They are talking about tens of thousands of patients DAILY. Using an EXTREMELY safe drug.

This video lays it all out – who was responsible for the corruption of the conclusions of the preprint which blocked ivermectin – a FRONT ORGANIZATION for Bill & Melinda Gates called Unitaid. We don’t know the names of the individuals in Unitaid yet, but it’s very clear that TENS OF THOUSANDS immediately, and ultimately HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS – worldwide even MILLIONS of people died – because of an ABUSE OF SCIENCE.

It’s very simple. Anybody can see what they did there.

“Let them die – we want the money.”

But now, let me tell you something MORE.

There is also evidence that Bill Gates has done EVEN MORE to block “old” drugs for COVID-19.

Begin with “LancetGate” and the “LancetGate Effect“. LancetGate was the first instance, where a FALSE anti-hydroxychloroquine paper – later RETRACTED – literally caused DEATHS that could be seen on a graph, due to panicked withdrawal of HCQ from patients in Switzerland, by a RASH bureaucratic ban on treatment with it.

This is explained in an article I did, covering a SECOND case of the LancetGate effect, where a ban on ivermectin was lifted, resulting in suppression of a wave of the delta variant in Indonesia.

LancetGate Effect 2.0 – Indonesia

The murderous LancetGate Effect is back, and this time it killed thousands before bureaucrats relented and allowed doctors to save patients. [ Hat Tip to barkerjim for alerting me to this Indonesian case. ] Part 1 – LancetGate Effect 1.0 and 1.1 Ah, the memories of LancetGate! That moment when “they” “finally” “proved” that hydroxychloroquine …

I have always suspected that Bill Gates was somehow behind the retracted LancetGate paper, but I’ve never been able to prove it. Part of that suspicion dated back to the very beginning of the COVID pandemic. When Bill Gates, “Mr. Vaxx and Vaxx Alone”, decided that treatments needed study, I knew that THE FIX WAS IN.

FIRESTARTER Bill Gates Downplays Effectiveness of Water on Fire – Says “We Need To Study All Kinds of Liquids and Promote The Best Ones”

Yeah. This fucker can PAY FOR MY RESPIRATOR. Just read this. The guy who funded the UNETHICAL virus research that gave me the fucking shortness of breath….. The guy who promoted a curiously fortuitous corona virus “exer-psy-op” while his CHINESE FRIENDS let loose the ChiCom-19 virus….. The guy who worked with DEMOCRATS to try to …

And then, when LancetGate hit, I suspected Gates.

However, it was only LATER that I stumbled upon ANOTHER instance of Gates’ apparent meddling in the scientific examination of hydroxychloroquine. Discussed HERE:

DEAR KAG: 20211224 – Christmas Eve – The Pub is OPEN / How Bill Gates Took Down Hydroxychloroquine

The Pub is OPEN again! With a blend of humor and seriousness, like any good bar, we celebrate this grand re-opening of WOLF’S PUB on Christmas Eve, December 24, 2021, by actually opening near closing time on Christmas Eve Eve, but what the heck. IT’S ALMOST CHRISTMAS. While our beloved bartender takes a needed break …

This one was actually a bit of a gold mine. Not only did I find that Facebook, Twitter, Gates and Pfizer were all tied behind a study which trashed hydroxychloroquine – there was ANOTHER study in the mix, funded by this gang, which pooh-poohed ivermectin.

These papers did NOT get big play in public – rather, they were used to quietly influence doctors behind the scenes. Gates is CUNNING, and he clearly does NOT want the “crowd” interfering in his delicate, moneyed, subversive operations.

He LEARNED after LancetGate, IMO, to be a bit more stealthy.

I have NOT looked at these two papers since the discovery of the funding. I do believe that when it first came out, I may have read the HCQ paper, if it’s the one I think it is, which was done in Brazil. I remember that at the time, I thought it was problematic for some reason, but I don’t really want to look at it again, because I think it would be better if OTHER scientists looked at these two studies and figured out what’s wrong with them.

Because I will BET MONEY there is something wrong with them. But I would rather just be the one to point out the funding issues, and let others find the science problems independently.

Now – there is one other potential scandal here, which almost nobody is talking about except me, and that has to do with the “suppression” of the fact that simple, normal, drug-store antihistamines have a rather profound effect in preventing death by COVID-19.

You didn’t know that, did you?

The Spanish nursing home study. Never heard of it, unless you follow a few sites like this one, or Jo Nova, or Karl Denninger.

This signal showed up in the literature several times, and NOBODY followed up on it. But in terms of saving lives, simple, over-the-counter antihistamines have been IMPRESSIVE.

All covered here:

The Zyrtec Rebellion

Everybody underestimates Spain. The last letter in “PIGS” is far less of an insult than an error. Years ago, when I was at a conference, and Japanese industrial spies were getting me drunk (it was a great red wine), I decided that I had to give them SOMETHING for their time and effort, if only …

Dear KMAG: 20220103 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic / Benadryl Could Have Saved Grandma / The Gatesification of Science

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President: AND our wonderful REALFLOTUS. Hopefully, this great couple is getting some REST, because they may NEED IT. I am telling y’all – the Trumps may very well be on their way back to the White House in 1-3 years. In fact, the way Obammunism has been …

You see, it’s actually rather ironic, but while we were all distracted by the drama of hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, nicely seeded by the other side, nobody paid any attention to the massive live-saving signal from drugstore antihistamines.

Something out in the public, that nobody could have stopped us from using. Something that – from THEIR point of view – could not have been allowed to become a public controversy, if they wanted the vaccines approved.

This is why – even though I am totally in favor of HCQ and ivermectin – I think it’s important to look deeper, and see how ALL OF US were fooled. The Spanish nursing home study was DONE treating patients in June of 2020. The results were in. The doctors finished their paper in September, but had already gone to the media 3 weeks into June.

There is no reason we could not have been saving people worldwide with their protocol, other than the likelihood that somebody didn’t want that knowledge to get out. And one of the ways to do that, is to set up a Hegelian conflict where the media sides AGAINST treatments in favor of the vaccines as “the only way”.

EVERYTHING after that is just a story of the FAILURE of human science, with all its “big data” and all its “artificial intelligence”, to FIND THAT SIGNAL, AMPLIFY IT, and START SAVING LIVES.

But that’s not what happened. Using a Hegelian process, we were made to fight over TWO DRUGS that THEY COULD CONTROL – and our minds were steered away from even safer and possibly even more effective common drugs that THEY COULD NOT CONTROL.

Even famotidine (a digestive tract H2 antihistaminic) is a distraction from the obvious truth that respiratory-tract-affecting H1 antihistaminics were found by both the Spanish authors and Dr. Chetty in South Africa to completely eliminate mortality from the inflammatory stage of COVID-19, if administered as soon as hypoxia ensues, or better still, at the first symptoms of the disease.

Well, here’s what I think.

I don’t think this signal was “lost”. I think this signal was covered up when possible, and distracted from when it could not be covered up.

And if you don’t think Bill Gates was somehow involved in that, you have a lot of catching up to do.

EVENT 201 SPONSORS:

Event 201 was designed to give people PRECONCEPTIONS.

Event 201 was designed to make sure people believed certain things – many of which science was about to find were simply UNTRUE. It was also designed to make sure people did NOT believe other things – or think them possible. And, I believe, Event 201 is also why much of the World Health Organization’s early advice was just plain BAD.

THEY were misled TOO.

At this point, I’m not sure how much Bill Gates is responsible for, but I do know this.

I am prepared to question every single word that comes out of his mouth.

He is NOT HERE TO HELP. I am not sure what in the hell he is up to, but he’s not here to help.

Sing A New Song!

“Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? (Psalm 43:5a)

We live in a world of pain. Jesus wept over the death of Lazarus (John 11:35). There’s no need to always put on a happy face and pretend that things are okay when they’re not.

There are many biblical examples of men of God struggling with sadness, even to the point of depression. David wrote, “Record my misery; list my tears on your scroll—are they not in your record?” (Psalm 56:8). David, a man after God’s own heart (Acts 13:22), didn’t gloss over his sadness; he expressed it to God. Both Moses (Numbers 11:5) and Elijah (1 Kings 19;3-5), two heroes of the faith, confessed to God that they preferred to die than live in their current reality. Neither was rebuked by God for his feelings; rather, both were met with God’s love and provision. The Bible is not shy about admitting the realities of human emotion. Sadness is part of life, and it is not condemned.

As believers, we’re exhorted to see the greater reality of God’s plan even in the midst of our sadness and depression. Yes, this world is fallen and often painful. It can be depressing. But God is far greater. He is at work, victoriously. Moses and Elijah received God’s provision and experienced His refreshing. Shortly after pouring out his sadness, David praised God. Jesus said, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

It’s OK for Christians to call trouble for what it is. At the same time, we take heart in God’s care. Taking heart doesn’t mean pasting on a smile or ignoring the feeling of emptiness that depression brings. It doesn’t mean ignoring the relational hurts or the misperceptions that have led to depression (Satan’s lies, if we believe them, will lead us to despair).

What taking heart does mean is bringing all our pain to God. It does mean continuing to trust in Him. It does mean believing that what He says about Himself and about us is true, even when we don’t feel like it is. We acknowledge the depravity of the world, but we also acknowledge the sufficiency of God.

It isn’t wrong to be depressed. But it is wrong—and not especially helpful in overcoming a depressed state—to give up on God when we are depressed. “Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God” (Psalm 43:5).

Therefore if anyone is joined to Christ by faith in Him as Savior, he’s a new creature altogether, reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit; the old moral and spiritual condition have passed away. Spiritual awakening brings a new life. Behold!  The fresh and new have come!  2 Cor 5:17 (amplified)

With the new life in Christ, we have the fresh and new, and are no longer mired in life as the world knows it. The pain and sadness of the world are now replaced by peace and joy of our promised eternal life . . . and our praises to God for his mercy and grace.

“O sing unto the LORD a new song: Sing unto the LORD, all the earth. Sing unto the LORD, praise His name” (Psalm 96:1–2).

Many other psalms echo a similar thought: “Sing to the LORD a new song, for He has done marvelous things; His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory” (Psalm 98:1). David intoned, “I will sing a new song to you, my God; on the ten-stringed lyre I will make music to You” (Psalm 144:9). “Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy,” insists Psalm 33:3. Again and again, God’s people are encouraged to “Praise the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, His praise in the assembly of His faithful people” (Psalm 149:1).

In each of these passages, new means “original,” “fresh,” “one of a kind,” and “never seen before,” or, in this case, “never heard before.” Through the prophet Isaiah, God said, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland” (Isaiah 43:18–19). Right before this, the Lord declared, “Behold, the former things have come to pass, and new things I now declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them. Sing to the LORD a new song, His praise from the end of the earth” (Isaiah 42:9–10).

When we’re born into the family of God, He makes us new creatures in Jesus Christ. The apostle Paul explained, “The old has gone, the new is here!” (2 Corinthians 5:17; see also Galatians 6:15). To the Corinthians, Paul said, “For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago” (Ephesians 2:10).

As God’s people, we express praise and thanks to Him. Singing unto the Lord a new song is the natural reaction of an individual who is newly saved and transformed by the Lord: “He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the LORD” (Psalm 40:3)

This new song is a fresh response of praise and thanks—one that matches the freshness of God’s goodness and mercy, which are “new every morning” (Lamentations 3:23). A new song springs forth from the heart of a worshiper who has been struck anew with wonder at the greatness of God and the salvation He has provided. When we see the mighty hand of God working in a way we’ve never observed before, we can’t help but burst forth with a song we’ve never sung before.

A new song has been heard from people of every generation—sung by a choir of born-again believers who have tasted and seen the goodness and salvation of the Lord. From days of old and for all eternity, followers from every tribe, language, people, and nation sing unto the Lord a new song (Revelation 5:9). Throughout the earth and before the throne of God in heaven, we can hear the redeemed singing a new song to the Lord (Revelation 14:3).

We look forward and look up in eager anticipation of the coming Sonrise that will bathe the entire world in God’s Light. Ours is not to grab our old, gray raincoats to trudge out into the drizzle and chill of this present world, being blown about by the sinful winds so prevalent in our besieged world. We trust in God and not ourselves and our own thinking. If we acknowledge Him in all our ways, He will guide our paths.

We have won! We are the conquerors! The victory is ours . . . it is fait accompli.

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. (Philippians 4:4-5)

Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

Are we there yet? Are we at least walking along that path that leads to an inexpressible joy in Christ? Are we even looking for that path?

“Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God” (Psalm 43:5)

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7)

 “I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)

Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. (Psalm 37:1-2)

Our path is here . . . it’s already ours. We need to lay hold of that truth and, believing, let it bring to our lives something that is fully in God’s plan for us . . . God’s will for us in Christ Jesus.

SPECIAL SECTION: Message For Our “Friends” In The Middle Kingdom

You knuckle-dragging barbarians are still trying to muck with this site, so I’ll just repeat what I said last time.

Up your shit-kicking barbarian asses. Yes, barbarian! It took a bunch of sailors in Western Asia to invent a real alphabet instead of badly drawn cartoons to write with. So much for your “civilization.”

Yeah, the WORLD noticed you had to borrow the Latin alphabet to make Pinyin. Like with every other idea you had to steal from us “Foreign Devils” since you rammed your heads up your asses five centuries ago, you sure managed to bastardize it badly in the process.

Have you stopped eating bats yet? Are you shit-kickers still sleeping with farm animals?

Or maybe even just had the slightest inkling of treating lives as something you don’t just casually dispose of?

And here’s my response to barbarian “asshoes” like you:

OK, with that rant out of my system…

Loop it if you like; I will wait.

Richly deserved.

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.

Last week:

Gold $1,890.00
Silver $24.36
Platinum $1,065.00
Palladium $2,457.00
Rhodium $20,750.00

This week, 3PM Mountain Time, markets have closed for the weekend.

Gold $1,973.90
Silver $25.83
Platinum $1132.00
Palladium $3,080.00
Rhodium $21,000.00

Gold moved up again, as of Thursday night it was around $1,940 again. And instead of being forced down again on Friday…well, it’s getting close to the milestone $2K.

I’m not sure, but palladium might now be at an all-time high. It has been going up faster than gold has been, that’s for sure. It has gone up about 25% just in the last week.

James Webb Space Telescope Update

Coarse phasing, described last week, continues.

Meanwhile the Near InfraRed Spectrograph (NIRSpec) instrument is being checked out, as described here: https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/03/03/checking-out-the-mechanisms-in-webbs-nirspec-instrument/

Not a whole lot more to say unless they post something new on Friday.

Fuck Joe Biden

Biden, you don’t even get ONE scoop of ice cream today.

(Please post this somewhere permanent, as it will continue to be true; the SOB will never deserve a scoop.)

Incidentally, I’m writing this on Friday. This morning I saw a full-sized pickup truck in the oncoming left turn lane with a forest of flags in the bed. Once he turned and drove left-to-right in front of me, I could see two American flags near the cab, and SIX “Let’s Go Brandon” flags near the tailgate. That was unusual; usually there’s a mix of FJB (only not abbreviated) and “Trump Won” and “Trump 2024” flags when someone does this.

I haven’t seen such a display in a few weeks, by the way. Even the guy at the office complex where I work with the FJB flag on his pickup seems to have removed it (or doesn’t work there any more–trucks all look alike to me from the back, and all crossovers look like cockroaches).

China is in the White House, because Joe Biden is in the White House, and Joe Biden is identically equal to China. China is Asshoe. Therefore, Joe Biden is Asshoe.

DEAR KAG: 20220304 – The Pub is OPEN / Mercury and Arsenic as the mRNA and Remdesivir of Pre-Fauci America

The Pub is OPEN!

We are NOT serving mercurials or arsenicals today – or EVER – but we ARE serving MODERN SUBSTITUTES like penicillin – to the non-allergic, of course.

While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE.

Christmas Spirit

And now, the rules of the pub.

HOUSE RULES

God bless us, every one! Tiny Tim had such a beautiful soul. He hadn’t a mean bone in his body…unlike most of us. But in keeping with Christmas, we promise to honor Wolf’s rules and keep Scrooge at bay. The Utree is where the Ghost of Christmas Present will conduct you should you need to rattle some chains. Another option, should all hell break loose is here.

Now, back to business.

AMEN!

Current Art On The Wall

We have a really RETRO shipment this week. All designed to go along with our FEATURE PRESENTATION.

These are presented in the order that they came out of the box.

PATENT MEDICINE PILL, 1890. Advertisement for Beecham’s Pills from an American newspaper of 1890.

Interestingly, Beecham’s Pills were actually USEFUL. They contained aloe, ginger, and SOAP, the latter meaning that they were much like stool softeners – a gentle laxative.

Not so sure about snake oil…..

The following is a subtle ad for CHILD DEWORMERS.

With this picture, we begin some ads for Dr. D. Jayne and his products. His company lasted for around a century. He was an actual trained doctor, and tended to use pharmaceuticals with real physical effects, like digitalis, opiates, etc., rather than quack ingredients.

American children tended to have roundworms and pinworms – Dr. Jayne’s “vermifuge” apparently worked on both.

Jayne used a lot of artwork in his marketing – thus many of his product advertisements can still be found.

The following is very subtle propaganda.

Jayne’s was still around as WWII loomed. Many of our childhoods were not long after this. Bear this in mind later in this post.

More “Jayne’s art”.

The expectorant apparently contained ipecac, opium and digitalis.

Nothing like a good salve!

Stabler’s apothecary was run by multiple generations of a family of pharmacists. The founder, Edward, was an interesting herbalist, trained in Pennsylvania. He was an abolitionist in Virginia who would purchase slaves to set them free. http://www.connectionnewspapers.com/news/2006/feb/01/herbal-remedy/

Check out this propaganda! LOL!!!

And we finish up with a feminist, abolitionist, and herbalist of great fame in her day, Lydia Pinkham. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lydia_Pinkham

So there you have it.

I hope you have some idea now about medicine in the 19th century.

Do you think we’ve advanced much?

Let’s move “forward” now, to “state of the art” 19th century prescription medicine.

Seatbelts.

Mercury and Arsenic as the mRNA and Remdesivir of Pre-Fauci America

In the process of reading about how COVID vaccines are now setting off syphilis tests (a topic which we covered last Friday), I chanced upon a boatload of information about early treatments of syphilis, and what I read simply blew me away.

The scandals of syphilis are WAY, WAY more than the “shame of the disease itself”, and WAY, WAY more than the Tuskegee syphilis experiment.

These scandals are SMALL POTATOES compared to the scandal of TREATMENT OF SYPHILIS WITH MERCURY.

This is history you will NOT learn under globalists and progressives.

A scandal which was SO BAD – just like “treatment” with these demonic mRNA vaccines – that medicine started QUIETLY – without admitting fault – looking for an exit strategy. And part of that was motivated by this fact:

BLACKS and other groups who were not getting “treated” with mercury, were not suffering many of the WORST end-stage “symptoms of syphilis”.

You see what I mean? It was JUST LIKE THE CLOT SHOT. Just like remdesivir. BLAMECASTING the errors of the BAD but moneymaker treatments onto the disease.

This is NOT NEW STUFF.

In fact, it is MOST IRONIC that the Tuskegee experiment STARTED OFF by literally SAVING the participants from treatment with mercury – only to then DENY THEM penicillin when that became available, so that they could continue the experiment.

Because the experiment was not merely about “not treating people”.

It was REALLY about NOT TREATING PEOPLE WITH MERCURY.

And THIS explains why there was so much determination to get these participants to the end-stage WITHOUT TREATMENT. Because it was end-stage effects that they were so interested in observing.

What I discovered was that the history of medicine in America is FILLED with stuff every bit as bad as the DEMON Anthony Fauci, the disaster of AIDS and AZT, toxic drugs like remdesivir, and medical killers like the untested mRNA vaccines. Much of it is exposed by the history of syphilis, so that is where we will begin.

The Wikipedia article on syphilis doesn’t say much about the actual treatment of syphilis with mercury, despite it having a fairly extensive section on treatment. A much better coverage is found in the article on the History of syphilis.

However, even THAT does not really give you a sense of the magnitude of what might gently be called “the problem of mercury as a medicine”.

Let me put it this way. When it turned out that MALARIA and ARSENIC were both superior and more importantly SAFER treatments of syphilis relative to the “consensus treatment” of MERCURY, you know that mercury was BAD SHIT as a medicine.

Obviously, if they tried MALARIA and ARSENIC, people KNEW that mercury was a bad drug.

In fact, I was shocked to find that the current confrontation between “natural therapies” and “pharmaceuticals” is a VERY old conflict that never went away. While there has been SOME reduction in the mortality difference between “do no harm, save a few” natural remedies and “kill a bunch of people, save a few” pharmaceuticals, we are still talking about millions of Americans killed by pharmaceuticals intended – or maybe just “purported” – to save them.

Anyway, here is the big picture.

The “clot shot” and the people who maliciously pushed it are entirely believable in the long, dark shadow of “killer calomel”.

SO – let’s get started with Hg2Cl2.

My parents actually had a bottle of calomel (not calamine – the neighbor kids had that) in the medicine cabinet when I was a kid. It was somewhat more modern than the above, with a metal screw-cap. Indeed, my parents had a lot of very old-school medical stuff from the 40s and 50s.

As children, we treated all our wounds with the mercury compound thiomersal, a.k.a. merthiolate. You know – the bad stuff in vaccines. This is the “new” bottle which I loved – we had older glass bottles with a glass dipping rod, before these handy squeeze bottles.

Calomel has a LONG history as a therapeutic. Although it got its start back in alchemy, by the time it got to America, it was a common medicine.

From Wikipedia:

By the 19th century, calomel was viewed as a panacea, or miracle drug, and was used against almost every disease, including syphilis, bronchitis, cholera, ingrown toenails, teething, gout, tuberculosis, influenza, and cancer. During the 18th and early 19th centuries pharmacists used it sparingly; but by the late 1840s, it was being prescribed in heroic doses[7]—due in part to the research of Benjamin Rush, who coined the term “heroic dose” to mean about 20 grains taken four times daily.[8] This stance was supported by Dr. Samuel Cartwright, who believed that large doses were “gentlest” on the body.[9] As calomel rose in popularity, more research was done into how it worked.

J. Annesley was one of the first to write about the differering effects of calomel when taken in small or large doses.[9] Through experimentation on dogs, Annesley concluded that calomel acted more like a laxative on the whole body rather than acting specifically on the vascular system or liver as previous physicians believed.[9] In 1853, Samuel Jackson described the harmful effects of calomel on children in his publication for Transactions of Physicians of Philadelphia.[7] He noted that calomel had harmful effects causing gangrene on the skin, loss of teeth, and deterioration of the gums.[7] On May 4, 1863, William A. Hammond, the United States’ Surgeon-General, stated that calomel would no longer be used in the army as it was being abused by soldiers and physicians alike.[7] This caused much debate in the medical field, and eventually led to his removal as Surgeon-General.[10] Calomel continued to be used well into the 1890s and even into the early 20th century.[7] Eventually calomel’s popularity began to wane as more research was done, and scientists discovered that the mercury in the compound was poisoning patients.

Calomel was the main of the three components of the pill number 9 of the British army during the First World War. [11]

But if you REALLY want to understand the history of calomel as both a poison and a drug, this is the article you need to read.

Beautiful Black Poison

The History of Calomel as Medicine in America

ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/krXUZ

This article totally gets it, as you can tell from the opening quote.

New drugs present greater hazards as well as greater potential benefits than ever before—for they are widely used, they are often very potent, and they are promoted by aggressive sales campaigns that may tend to overstate their merits and fail to indicate the risks involved in their use. . . There is no way of measuring the needless suffering, the money innocently squandered, and the protraction of illnesses resulting from the use of such ineffective drugs.

John F. Kennedy, in his Consumers’ Protection Message of March 15, 19621

Is the whole “Q” thing starting to make sense? Just as an aside. JFK clearly had some of the same enemies as Trump.

Anyway, this article shows how the use of mercury and arsenic compounds for medicines was controversial even from the START, with Paracelsus himself admonishing fellow alchemists not to use too much mercury in treatments.

The problem with calomel is that it’s insoluble MOST of the time, and in that state it can be used in excess, because it just flushes through the body. It’s a lot like barium sulfate – a totally safe version of highly toxic barium – in that respect. But if calomel oxidizes, or becomes impure, or otherwise emits other forms of mercury, it can be very harmful.

Thus, calomel got good results in some hands, but in the hands of other physicians, and in the bodies of other patients, it was a killer. It was easily abused, and even some of the “megadose” treatments were abusive from the git-go – to say nothing of giving it to children, and doing life-long damage.

But now, let’s look at what calomel and other mercury compounds did for syphilis. For THAT we go to another great article.

The Role of Mercury in the Treatment of Syphilis

Comment from David Healy

ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/Cniil

This article does a deep dive on use of mercury to treat syphilis, and does not hold back on the contention that much of the symptomology of syphilis that was seen before penicillin, was really due to mercury poisoning and NOT due to syphilis itself.

Sound familiar?

This article in particular contends that the end-stage dementia of tertiary syphilis in the West, which was observed much less frequently in certain populations like blacks, Indians, and Norwegians, who avoided mercury, was mostly due to the treatment with mercury, not syphilis.

In case you’re thinking that’s unlikely, just consider patient-killing remdesivir, which we’ve covered extensively.

Now, there IS an great academic look at the skeletons of syphilitic patients, some of whom were treated with mercury, trying to determine if mercury made things worse. The results are inconclusive, but in any case, the background material is excellent reading.

More Harm than Healing? Investigating the Iatrogenic Effects of Mercury Treatment on Acquired Syphilis in Post-medieval London.

Molly K. Zuckerman

DOI 10.1515/opar-2016-0003
Received October 26, 2015; accepted March 29, 2016

Abstract: Mercury was commonly used to treat syphilis in post-medieval Europe, but debate persists about whether it ameliorated infection or exacerbated it. As there are no in vitro studies on mercury’s effectiveness, Hg levels were characterized using an established technique, portable X-Ray Florescence Spectrometry (pXRF) in syphilitic skeletons (N=22) from six post-medieval London cemeteries. Levels were assessed against proxies for syphilitic infection severity (lesion type, episodic involvement, extent of involvement), oral health indicators, and age at death. The findings are equivocal, likely obfuscated by background poor oral health and high mortality, and cannot elucidate whether mercury ‘killed or cured’.

Keywords: syphilis, mercury, pXRF, post-medieval, London, trace element analysis, paleopathology.

My bottom line it this.

The history of treatment with mercury in America serves as a strong precedent for what we are seeing now with “vaccines for everything”. The mendacity of some and the fecklessness of others regarding COVID treatments is not new – it all happened before with the mendacious and feckless medical establishment – and MERCURY.

After two years of having my personal life utterly f***ed with, and toyed with by the Dems – they can kiss the fattest part of my natural born white a$$ expecting “unity”.

FOR TWO YEARS;

You kept us in masks.

You kept us indoors.

You masked our children, and gave them PTSD that will take a life time to erase.

You kept us separated.

You forced an experimental drug on society.

You forced that drug while taking people’s livelihoods away because they chose not to take it.

You fired Doctors, Nurses, Firefighters, Police, and EMTs because of their choice. Less than a year after hailing them as heroes.

You used this sham to steal an election.

You stole that election in an attempt to usher in World Wide Totalitarianism.

You’ve been the direct cause of death, disease, famine, and families losing everything.

You stood idly by while your BLM and Antifa lackeys ravaged American cities.

You pushed for defunding police.

You gaslit an entire nation, and the World into division, hatred, and chaos.

You’ve used your mockingbird media to brainwash the innocent.

You fight for the right to murder babies.

You fight for the right to force a child to have sexual reassignment surgery.

You project, lie, manipulate and twist every single soul on this planet.

You’ve pushed God out, and welcomed Satan.

You’ve committed high treason.

You diddle kids.

You cover for pedophiles.

You call us racist.

You call us domestic terrorists.

You ran a false flag on January 6th, thus leading to horrible treatment of folks who simply walked around inside the Capitol.

You’ve allowed Big Pharma to dictate how healthy someone can be.

You cancelled the Cleveland Indians, Washington Redskins, Uncle Ben, and Aunt Jemima.

You tear down statues.

You burn books.

You censor free speech.

I’m sure I could keep going, but Imma go ahead and wrap this up.

Listen to me. Very carefully. Yes, [you]. We will not forget. We will not forgive. We will not unite with you. Period.

You will soon discover the sleeping giant you have awakened. Will we get violent? NOPE. Nor do we need to. We will continue doing as we have done for the past 4.5 years. And that is kicking you square in the dick over and over with truth, information, and memes.

Freedom loving humans the world over are sick of the bullshit, and if you think for one second ANY of us are gonna just let this shit slide, you better wake the fuck up and get some Wheaties in ya because we ain’t going away.

Our resolve has only strengthened. Our anger is Righteous, and God blankets us with His love, guidance, safety, and protection. Most importantly; What we have, you lack – We have truth, we have resolve, we have love, and we have GOD.

That’s why we will win.

GOD and LOVE.

God wins.

Sticking with the surveillance theme:

____________________________________

One of the obstacles to full understanding of just what the enemy is all about revolves around the concept of symbolism.

However, this is a symbol that the other side does not seem to use other than to send a message.

ASHES

The liturgical use of ashes originates in the Old Testament times. Ashes symbolized mourning, mortality, and penance. For instance, in the Book of Esther, Mordecai put on sackcloth and ashes when he heard of the decree of King Ahasuerus (or Xerxes, 485-464 BC) of Persia to kill all of the Jewish people in the Persian Empire (Est 4:1). Job (whose story was written between seventh and fifth centuries BC) repented in sackcloth and ashes (Jb 42:6). Prophesying the Babylonian captivity of Jerusalem, Daniel (c. 550 BC) wrote, “I turned to the Lord God, pleading in earnest prayer, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes” (Dn 9:3). In the 5th century BC, after Jonah’s preaching of conversion and repentance, the town of Ninevah proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth, and the king covered himself with sackcloth and sat in the ashes (Jon 3:5-6). These Old Testament examples evidence both a recognized practice of using ashes and a common understanding of their symbolism.

Jesus Himself also made reference to ashes: Referring to towns that refused to repent of sin although they had witnessed the miracles and heard the good news, our Lord said, “If the miracles worked in you had taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they would have reformed in sackcloth and ashes long ago” (Mt 11:21).

The early Church continued the usage of ashes for the same symbolic reasons. In his book, De Poenitentia, Tertullian (c. 160-220) prescribed that the penitent must “live without joy in the roughness of sackcloth and the squalor of ashes.” Eusebius (260-340), the famous early Church historian, recounted in his The History of the Church how an apostate named Natalis came to Pope Zephyrinus clothed in sackcloth and ashes begging forgiveness. Also during this time, for those who were required to do public penance, the priest sprinkled ashes on the head of the person leaving confession.

More information on ashes and their use in Christianity can be found at the link above.

15“See, I have set before you this day life and good, death and evil. 16If you obey the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you this day, by loving the LORD your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, then you shall live and multiply, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land which you are entering to take possession of it. 17But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away to worship other gods and serve them, 18I declare to you this day, that you shall perish; you shall not live long in the land which you are going over the Jordan to enter and possess. 19I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse; therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live, 20loving the LORD your God, obeying his voice, and cleaving to him; for that means life to you and length of days, that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.”

PSALMS 1:1-4, 6

1Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 2but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3He is like a tree planted by streams of water, that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. 4The wicked are not so, but are like chaff which the wind drives away. 6for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

LUKE 9:22-25

22saying, “The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.” 23And he said to all, “If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. 24For whoever would save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake, he will save it. 25For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?

Dear KAG: 20220302 Open Thread

Did anyone bother to watch Creepy Uncle Joe last night?

Yeah, me neither.

Found on GAB:

Relentless Truth@Lebronsonroids17h·Dear Normies…

PLEASE hear me out.

“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Russiagate was bullshit.

We were right.

“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Spygate was real.

We were right.

“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Covid was a hoax.

We were right.

“Conspiracy Theorists” told you that the ultimate goal was endless vaccines and a digital tracking system.

We were right.

“Conspiracy Theorists” told you that there were safe, cheap and effective therapeutics that could have saved countless lives.

We were right.

“Conspiracy Theorists” told you that the vaccines would be ineffective and harmful. That they would cover up the data to protect the narrative.

We were right.

“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Biden and the Democrats stole the election. That his administration would be an epic disaster.

WE. WERE. RIGHT.

But here’s the thing…

Our mission isn’t to gloat.

Our mission isn’t validation or vindication.

Our mission is to help you SEE. For the very first time.

The MSM has KNOWINGLY lied to your face 24/7/365 for decades. They’ve laughed at you behind closed doors as you’ve swallowed their false narratives hook, line and sinker. They spend hours every evening telling you how terrible the world is…filling your mind with negativity and FEAR.

They labeled those of us trying to help you understand as bigots, racists and terrorists.

You know that simply isn’t true.

They’ve silenced any and all dissenting opinion and labeled those thoughts as a threat to democracy.

You know that isn’t right.

Aren’t you tired of being gaslighted and straight up lied to?

Who has more to gain from lying to you?

Your family and friends or the people who enrich themselves through a corrupt, rigged and immoral system that only benefits the 1%?

That same corrupt and disingenuous collection of talking heads is now telling you that we are on the brink of nuclear war with Russia.

“Conspiracy Theorists” are telling you that isn’t true and that massive corruption will be exposed as a result of Putin’s “special military operation” in Ukraine.

We will be right again.

Please let this be the last time you allow yourself to be duped by people who don’t care about you and are paid to lie to your face.

Let this be the moment when you finally realize that it’s US (WE THE PEOPLE) VERSUS THEM (THE POWER HUNGRY DECEIVERS).

We are not defined by our political affiliation.

The two party system is an illusion of choice.

A brilliant yet maniacal division tactic.

We are not defined by the color of our skin or which God we choose to believe in.

WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS. WE ARE ONE.

Divide and conquer has been the method to their madness for centuries.

Let this be the moment when you finally realize that humanity deserves better.

That humanity deserves TRUTH.

That humanity thrives when we are UNITED.

That we’ve been deprived of that feeling for many generations.

Let this be the moment when you realize why the term “Conspiracy Theorist” was invented in the first place.

Anyone care to add on to that?

Have a good day y’all.

(I don’t remember who brought this to a daily in the comments, but thanks.)

And, of course, the obligatory George Carlin:

Per the Boss:

And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:

Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.

Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone

Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.

Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.

Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out, as well as the newest rescue venue.

Auntie DePat’s requests:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

One other vital note:

Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.

JOEL 2:12-18

12“Yet even now,” says the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; 13and rend your hearts and not your garments.” Return to the LORD, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and repents of evil. 14Who knows whether he will not turn and repent, and leave a blessing behind him, a cereal offering and a drink offering for the LORD, your God? 15Blow the trumpet in Zion; sanctify a fast; call a solemn assembly; 16gather the people. Sanctify the congregation; assemble the elders; gather the children, even nursing infants. Let the bridegroom leave his room, and the bride her chamber. 17Between the vestibule and the altar let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep and say, “Spare thy people, O LORD, and make not thy heritage a reproach, a byword among the nations. Why should they say among the peoples, `Where is their God?'” 18Then the LORD became jealous for his land, and had pity on his people.

MATTHEW 6:1-6, 16-18

1“Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. 2“Thus, when you give alms, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 3But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. 5“And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 6But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. 16“And when you fast, do not look dismal, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 17But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, 18that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

“Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace. Peace will be the last word of history” – St. Pope John Paul II

Holiness is this profound contact with God, becoming a friend of God: it is letting the Other work, the Only One who can really make the world both good and happy. — Benedict XVI

As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.

Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.

And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.

It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.

In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.

Will find something for this space [satire] next week.

So sad for everyone.

https://twitter.com/cawthorme/status/1497765364876423173

Illinois can be avoided.

Something to remember, always.

Per the boss’s instruction:

I’d throw in a few Rockefellers and Rothschilds also.

Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.

Your weekly reminder to take the pledge:

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”

Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

MARK 10:28-31

28Peter began to say to him, “Lo, we have left everything and followed you.” 29Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel, 30who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life. 31But many that are first will be last, and the last first.”

Fr. Meeks has a good homily, although one that will be hard to digest for many here.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Amen brother.
