Dear KAG: 20220511 Open Thread

Since we went from spring to August in these parts in the last forty-eight hours, that snow looks refreshing. 🥴

Okay, folks, if it feels to you that the “news” these days is lather, rinse, repeat, that’s because there really haven’t been any bombshells this week. There has been a lot of riding on previous bombshells as Dinesh D’Souza explains in his podcast:

Yes, it’s forty-eight minutes, but he says some good stuff and does refer to the elephant in the room of this week’s scandalous pronouncement from red headed Jen.

Note to Jen: you are encouraging the “protestors” to commit felonies. It is illegal to protest outside a judge’s home in order to persuade him or her to change a vote.

Not all “protestors” are there in support of the justice.

As for the other big story this week, 2000 Mules, and the mainstream media – including the talking heads at Fox – burying it as much as they can:

The reality is, though, that the lack of reporting is getting noticed, and the citizen reporters are taking it upon themselves to spread the word.

Waking up is hard to do.

Newsmax isn’t covering it either, so crafty guests have to put plugs in where they can.

The banned network will report on it, though:

P.S. Tucker Carlson was on fire about the attacks on Christianity Monday evening, but not on voter integrity. Therefore his rant, which really was good, will only get a link.

The blood in this body may be only three eighths Irish, but Irish Amnesia applies.

^^^^THIS^^^^

A timely reminder comes from Sundance. Although, why he has to say it when we’ve been harping on this for years is a mystery.

The short answer is, it’s not that complicated. There is one permanent bureaucratic class in/around DC (two wings, same bird). The pool of appointees comes from this UniParty system. Donald Trump as an outsider faced animosity from the system itself. There are no MAGA bureaucrats.

That said, the more fulsome answer is the real issue. Because it doesn’t matter who the ‘outsider’ is, they are going to suffer the same fate until a structural change takes place.

If you take a small potential pool of America-First administrators, and then overlay the DC filtration system in the Senate, ‘advise and consent’, what you realize is that any appointment has to be approved by the same system that is opposed to the agenda the nominee would represent.

In essence, the DC system is designed to protect itself.

It doesn’t matter who the next presidential candidate is. If that President wants to advance a policy agenda in favor of the American people, they will face the same problem.

The alternate answer is he gave them enough rope to hog tie AND hang themselves.

Okay, is there anything else?

As if higher prices aren’t bad enough.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Will have to find some sauce on this one.

Yeah, but now it goes to the Missouri State House which is much less reliable, and Governor Parsons may well veto it.

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.

ACTS 12:24–13:5

1224But the word of God grew and multiplied. 25And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their mission, bringing with them John whose other name was Mark. 131Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyre’ne, Man’a-en a member of the court of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. 2While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” 3Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off. 4So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleu’cia; and from there they sailed to Cyprus. 5When they arrived at Sal’amis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John to assist them.

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, as well as Gil, RDS, Bakocarl, and any others facing serious health issues right now..

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.

Oh, JP, you read my mind.
