SPECIAL SECTION: Message For Our “Friends” In The Middle Kingdom
I normally save this for near the end, but…basically…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?
中国是个混蛋 !!!
Zhōngguò shì gè hùndàn !!!
China is asshoe !!!
And here’s my response to barbarian “asshoes” like you:
OK, with that rant out of my system…
Biden Gives Us Too Much Credit
…we can move on to the next one.
Apparently Biden (or his puppeteer) has decided we’re to blame for all of the fail in the United States today.
Sorry to disappoint you Joe (or whoever), but you managed to do that all on your own; not only that, you wouldn’t let us NOT give you the chance because you insisted on cheating your way into power.
Yep, you-all are incompetent, and so proud of it you expect our applause for your sincerity. Fuck that!!
It wouldn’t be so bad, but you insist that everyone else have to share in your misery. Nope, can’t have anyone get out from under it. Somehow your grand vision only works if every single other person on earth is forced to go along. So much as ONE PERSON not going along is enough to make it all fail, apparently.
In engineering school we’re taught that a design that has seven to eight billion single points of failure…sucks.
Actually, we weren’t taught that. Because it would never have occurred to the professors to use such a ridiculous example.
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.

This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines, here, with an addendum on 20191110.
We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.
And remember Wheatie’s Rules:
1. No food fights

3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
4. Zeroth rule of gun safety: Don’t let the government get your guns.
5. Rule one of gun safety: The gun is always loaded.

Spot Prices
All prices are Kitco Ask, 3PM MT Friday (at that time the markets close for the weekend).
Last week:
Gold $1,852.30
Silver $22.00
Platinum $1022.00
Palladium $2,074.00
Rhodium $15,500.00
So here it is, Friday, 3PM MT after markets closed and we see:
Gold $1,873.20
Silver $22.00
Platinum $982.00
Palladium $2,020.00
Rhodium $14,900.00
All over the map here. Gold up, silver is exactly where it was (though I am sure it moved around a bit over the week), all of the PGMs down. That says to me the industrial users are demanding less, and gold is serving as a safe haven.
But that interpretation is worth exactly what you just paid for it.
JWST Update
JWST instrument commissioning proceeds apace.
This morning, I saw they had two of the seventeen instrument modes checked off. It’s now 3PM mountain time…and they have four!
That tells me they’re working a bunch of them (maybe even all of them) at the same time.
The JWST blog is busy, too. As some here noted, they’ve already dealt with a micrometeor strike. They expected these and designed with that in mind. (Though if a meteor isn’t so “micro-” there could be problems. However, the bigger they are the less likely they are.)
https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/06/08/webb-engineered-to-endure-micrometeoroid-impacts/
Also they’ve posted about the near infrared imager and slitless spectrometer (NIRISS), one of the four instruments on JWST (there’s a fifth, but it’s used to keep track of the JWST itself). They can do spectroscopy on one object, or everything in the field of view at once, interfermetry (getting increased resolution at the cost of some light), and just plain old imaging to back up and/or supplement NIRCam.
https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/06/03/the-modes-of-webbs-niriss/
If I were to try to overstate how important spectroscopy is to astronomy, I’d fail. It’s thanks to spectroscopy that we can tell radial velocity (how fast a star is moving towards or away from us), how fast something is rotating, what it is made of, and (with a lot of sophisticated processing) the mass and period of many exoplanets and even what the atmosphere of an exoplanet might contain (provided in the latter case we are in the exoplanet’s orbital plane), all without leaving the comfort of our home planetary system (and let’s face it, we still haven’t much choice there). The overwhelming majority of what we know about “out there” is thanks to spectroscopy. And it was key in discovering at least a dozen chemical elements, including one that was discovered in the sun before it was discovered here (I’ve told that story–hint/reminder, it’s the chemical element named after the sun).
You may have wondered how they’re going to decide who gets to use JWST. After all there are more astronomers than there are James Webb Space Telescopes. And, it turns out, it’s a bureaucratic process.
https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/06/09/scheduling-webbs-science/
I know that some of the available (24/7 minus takedowns for maintenance, usually adjusting mirror secoment alignments) time is held in reserve, at the discretion of the manager of the JWST. That’s quite a privilege, but other than his personal research, he’ll be expected to use it to study things that go kaboom or comets, especially comets about to hit things. In other words, if a supernova were to go off near by (a totally unanticipatable event), it gets priority over the guy who wants an image of NGC-1234…and that guy would probably even agree with the decision; we haven’t had a really gonzo supernova since before Galileo’s telescope. (The fact that the one back in 1987 was visible even though it was a hundred thousand light years away tells you something about how bright a star like Betelgeuse would be if it went kaboom! since Betelgeuse is a couple of hundred times closer. Yes, it would be visible in daylight.)
Meanwhile, we wait for the awesome.
An Interesting Point Made Here
Yesterday cthulhu linked to this:
(Very first post for Friday.)
And the first part of that was worth a read:
When we conservatives decline to volunteer as a dish in the progressive buffet, the leftists have no choice but to feed upon each other. We will see more of it as conservatives wake up and smell the kombucha – leftists only win when they can bully and intimidate, and if we choose not to let them do that to us, then it’s not as if they will give up their go-to move. No, they will turn on each other, and we will gobble up the Orville Redenbacher as they fight to the death for our amusement.
And we are amused.
Donald Trump was the first guy to push back, really push back, but it was not simply his pugnacious nature and cunning ability with mean tweets that made him important. It was his moral position. At some level, for some reason, so many establishment Republicans had approached these bad faith actors as legitimate critics who were at best misguided and who might actually have a germ of a point within their critiques. Trump, however – having been among them for decades and understanding exactly who they are – read them correctly. He considered them garbage.
It was not so much that Trump fought back, it was that he made it clear that the leftists are scum. And because he did not credit them with any moral stature, their slings and arrows bounced off his armor. Of course, Ron DeSantis has taken the same tack with them, refusing to credit them with any kind of merit. And that deprives them of their most powerful weapon – their victims’ complicity.
The thing about words is that they can only hurt you if you let them. At one point, “racist” and “sexist” and all the other lies might have stung. Now, we consider them a punchline and an outright slander. We laugh at them.
Kurt Schlichter on TownHall
This is precisely what Ayn Rand called “the sanction of the victim.” It comes about when, deep down, you cede moral authority to your oppressors. Rand would, in particular, highlight the effects of an altruistic world view in this connection, i.e., where your worth is measured by how much self sacrifice you are willing to do. If you can be guilt-tripped for not being willing to give up something you value, to help out a bum on the street, they’ve got you.
This sort of thing is, I believe, why many RINOs cave regularly. They believe that the Left has a bunch of impractical ideals, and they think of themselves as practical people who have to rein those impractical people in. But the problem is, they think of the left’s ideals as ideals that can’t be achieved practically–which means they say to themselves, “Well it’s nice in theory.” So they can be pressured to help try. After all, it would be nice if real communism could work, so why not get as close to it as is practical?
But in doing this they cede the moral high ground to the Left. Which is why RINOs are inveterate invertebrates.
Rand, of course, thought altruism (which she considered sacrificing something of greater value for something of lesser value, about which more below) was a crock, so she was immune to that.
But even those immune to altruistic appeals might not be immune to accusations of “sexism” or “racism” and modern Leftism isn’t so much about Marxism of the “workers own the means of production” as it is about race and sex inequality “built in” to the culture. (Though the former is supposed to be a means to correct the latter…or maybe the latter is the excuse to implement the former…ah, well, who cares which one it is?) So they pull guilt trips that can only work if you cede them the high ground. If you do that, you will feel you deserve what they do to you.
That’s a major philosophical thread underlying the entire novel Atlas Shrugged.
(By the way in her non-fiction writing Ayn Rand was explicit that she was not talking about “sacrificing” to put your kids through college or things like that–you are trading a lesser value (that fancy car you couldn’t buy) for something of greater value (your children’s futures. She would not consider that an actual sacrifice but rather a high price paid for something of great value. A sacrifice is giving up something more valuable to you, in exchange for something less valuable. With that in mind, Ayn Rand opposed sacrifices in life, often gotten from people through guilt trips.)
And now, thanks in part to the Left going over the top with accusations of “racism” and in part to Trump showing them to be paper tigers, the Left is losing their power…and they’re losing their shit over that.
Quarters
The subject of the new quarters came up a couple of days ago, and I thought I’d bring in a historical perspective.
It’s hard to imagine today, but in the early days quarters weren’t that popular a denomination. Since, back then, the mint made coins to order by anyone who brought silver or gold in, that meant if people didn’t specifically ask for it, they didn’t make it. And most people bringing in a bunch of silver would want it done as dollars or half dollars.
But, nevertheless they did make a few thousand of them in 1796.
Note there’s no denomination on the coin. You were expected to know what it was by its size. And the other silver coins had the same design themes on them.
They made a few more quarters in the 1800s (i.e., 180x, not the 19th century) with a different eagle (and now, the denomination is given as 25 C though it looks like an afterthought):
And then in 1807 or so they changed designs completely.
Collectors refer to the prior designs as “Draped Bust/Small Eagle” and “Draped Bust/Large Eagle” and this design is the “Capped Bust” because Liberty is wearing a cap. This ran until mid 1838, though the recently-founded New Orleans mint adopted it a couple years later. Again, all silver denominations basically used the same theme, the coins looked like each other except for size and the written denomination (half dimes, dimes, quarters, and halves–there were no capped bust dollars at all). [Yes, half dimes…silver coins half the size of a dime. The nickel we know and love didn’t exist until 1866.]
Again, there’d be multi-year gaps where no one ordered quarters from the mint.
Next was the “Liberty Seated” series which ran until 1891, i.e., it lasted longer than the mint had been in existence when it was adopted. Again, all of the silver coins basically looked the same. We had silver dollars again. But the half-dime and dime were a little different, instead of an eagle they had a wreath on the reverse. So we finally started to see a breaking up of the monolithic one-design-for-all-denominations rule.
There was one major change to this in 1866 for the quarter, half dollar and dollar, because “In God We Trust” was added, on a ribbon over the eagle’s head and wings.
A multimillionaire might decide it would be fun to get one of each date and mintmark, in uncirculated condition…that’s the typical collecting type, albeit with a budget the typical collector doesn’t have (most collectors don’t even delve into Liberty Seated and earlier coinage at all; if you collect by type–one of each design type rather than one of each year and mint mark–you have a considerable advantage; you need six or eight coins instead of over a hundred).
That multimillionaire will never succeed if he undertakes that quest. Many dates, especially from the San Francisco mint, are unknown in uncirculated condition; i.e., absent someone opening a box in an old attic somewhere and making a discovery, there aren’t any. Period. Again, quarters were not that popular, and the mint didn’t make many. (And the Civil War was not good for specie coinage on top of that.)
The mint got bored with the Liberty Seated coinage and decided to replace it starting in 1892. We were now down to four silver denominations, the dime, quarter, and half dollar, plus two distinct types of silver dollars. The silver dollars had their own designs, now, but the dime, quarter and half dollar still had liberty seated on the obverse and an eagle (or wreath) on the reverse. Anyhow, the replacement quarter was…
And collectors are almost unanimous in finding this design to be incredibly blah. (What’s with Liberty’s neck?) This design had one big advantage though, and that is that it struck up well, with all the detail, and as it wore down, it was still readily recognizable. That was the criteria Charles Barber was working from, and he succeeded.
Why am I showing you all of this? Because people were talking about the artistry and symbolism of the new quarters. So the design has been my focus so far.
In the 1900s…as in 190x, not 19xx..none other than President Theodore Roosevelt decided our coins were artistically atrocious. Not just silver but also the coppers, nickels, and gold pieces. (Probably the only then-current design liked a lot today is the Indian head cent.) So he embarked on a crusade to change the designs. There was, at the time, a law against changing the designs more than once every twenty five years, but the then-current gold designs had been around since 1839 or 1849 depending on the denomination, so those could be done right now. Roosevelt brought well-known sculptors famous for their work into the project, and this was in the days before modern “art.” (You can look those up: Indian head quarter eagle, half eagle, eagle, and St. Gaudens double eagle, I want to focus on quarters).
But the effort to change our coinage actually did outlive Teddy Roosevelt. In 1916, under Woodrow Never-to-be-Sufficiently-Damned Wilson, the silver was addressed (and again, there was no dollar being produced at all). And this time the designs were completely different for each denomination.
So I present you the “Standing Liberty Quarter.”
Only a few were made at the tail end of 1916 and command a huge premium today, but more were made in 1917 and then there was a design change.
The shield looks different, the eagle is higher up, the stars on the reverse are rearranged…and yeah, Liberty is now overdressed.
[The modern “old wives’ tale” is that there was a huge hue and cry over the bare breast and that’s why they changed the design, but in fact little evidence of such can be found in contemporary newspapers. And John Ashcroft wasn’t even alive then.]
These coins are much, much more artistic than the Barber series, but the mint hated them. The design was nearly impossible to strike up. Oftentimes detail in Liberty’s head was just not there, and so today, if you’re shopping for one of these, an “FH” or “Full Head” designation can bring a premium. But even on “Full Head” coins, many of the rivets on the shield (and the US shield on the shield) can be soft or nonexistent.
It was difficult to mint these well in the sorts of quantities the mint was now being called upon to produce. (The “Mercury” dime and walking liberty half dollar also introduced in 1916 had similar issues…also worth looking up.)
Charles Barber was stung that his design had been dropped after 24 years (with a little creative interpretation of the exact text of the 25 year rule), and considered these designs failures–and by his criteria, as a man charged with producing designs that would strike up and wear well, he was actually right.
Washington’s 200th birthday was fast approaching, and Congress passed a bill to put Washington on the quarter in 1932. The last standing liberty quarter was made in 1930 (none dated 1931).
So now, who gets to sculpt George Washington?
The Commission on Fine Arts had hired Laura Gardin Fraser to sculpt a commemorative medal, and they suggested the same bust be used on the quarter. But instead Treasury Secretary Andrew W. Mellon chose the James Flanagan portrayal, which in turn was based on a sculpted bust by Jean-Antoine Houdon made in 1786–i.e., a sculpture made using Washington himself as a model.
So the Flanagan portrayal should be very, very close to an actual image of Washington. (It can be hard to nail down a good image of someone who lived before photography.) Anyhow, here it is:
This of course is what we’re used to. But please note, there is actual detail in Washington’s hair. By the 1960s and 1970s the master hub from which the dies are made had worn smooth from repeated use and Washington’s hair began to look like a skullcap.
A touched up version of this began to be used sometime in the 1990s, but they overdid it and it looked like Washington’s hair was made of spaghetti.
It only got worse in 1999. The image was shrunk slightly to make room for legends brought from the reverse for the state quarters series.
And the spaghetti hair looks even worse. (BTW, here he faces away from “In God We Trust.” This is nothing new; it has been like that since 1999.)
Still, it looks very much like before. Flanagan might not have liked what was done to his portrait, but at least it was recognizable as an attempt at his portrait.
The state quarters series, and the subsequent national seashore series ended, finally in 2021, early in the year, and the mint reverted to the 1990s full-size, spaghetti hair portrait, for just that one year (with IGWT on the left again below Washington’s chin).
On the reverse is this image of Washington’s crossing of the Delaware. (I couldn’t find a decent sharp image of the obverse of this coin; the focus was on the new reverse.)
But this was just a gap filler. We’re on to a new program for quarters, one recognizing women…and OBTW it’s quota time. One White, one “Native American,” one Black, one Asian, one Hispanic. (And we get to do this for three more years after this one. Oh joy. Oh rupture.)
(The feminazis must be downright orgasmic over the Amerind honoree, Wilma Mankiller.)
And it being women…well, it has been alleged that Mellon made his decision for the Flanagan portrait over the Fraser portrait on purely sexist grounds, and so, where better than on quarters designed to honor women should one rectify such an injustice? So Fraser’s portrait, used once on a $5 gold commemorative in 1999 (shown below), got brought back.
Well, Mellon’s choice might have been due to sexism, or it might have been that he thought this was butt ugly by comparison. Judging from the commentary here earlier this week, I’ll go with butt ugly.
On the other hand, a “Fine Arts Commission” did recommend this over the Flanagan design. So I’ll allow that perhaps sincere people could differ over which one is better.
Perhaps. 
Now I’m going to come to Fraser’s defense, a bit. She and her husband, James Earle Fraser, were “real” sculptors too, just as St. Gaudens, Bela Lyon Pratt, Adolph Weinman, Victor D. Brenner, and Hermon Atkins MacNeil were (these people had all done coin designs in the early 20th century). In fact James Fraser did the Indian Head (or “Buffalo”) nickel. Laura did one of the two sides of the Oregon Trail Memorial half dollar (struck intermittently between 1926 and 1939):
She and her husband both liked to use American Indian subjects in their sculpture, and I realized earlier this week that might be why Washington looks very “Indian” in her portrayal.
(By the way the other side of that coin was done by James:)

Nice coin info, and I hope you’re rackin’ and stackin’ platinum.
At the rate we’re going, in a few years a Russian gold ruble will be the way to go.
I have to admit I totally misunderstood the thrust of your comment for about five seconds…because Russia did, in fact, issue gold coinage for daily use under the tsars.
Nope you mean the gold backed ruble of today. I don’t know if Russia plans to mint actual daily-use gold (and silver?) coinage.
You are perceptive and I apologize for being misleading in my language.
And gold/silver coinage is possible if they are denominated in grams. That way, it would be up to the consumer and the seller to jointly determine how many coins constituted a fair price for a particular transaction.
They COULD do that, but under a gold standard, a mass in gold is equivalent to the unit; it’s essentially defining a new mass unit.
When we were on the gold standard, an unstruck gold planchet of the proper mass (a bit under a troy ounce) was twenty dollars. Not “was worth twenty dollars” but “was twenty dollars.” The government stamping it was just a convenience (a very great one) for subsequent users as it certified that the metal lump in your hand was indeed the proper amount of gold.
So there’s no need to denominate in grams so long as a ruble is defined as being a certain mass of gold.
Exactly. I just lacked the brain cells to spit it out like that.
It’s my fault for knowing too much about old history; I shouldn’t have assumed you knew that. *I* was the one who was context-dropping.
So interesting to see so many coins that I never knew existed. I had never thought about whether very many quarters were made. I would love to see the 1796 one.
This is an excellent description of what happens, and why. Ceding is what Repubs invariably do. It’s like Lucy with the football. They are conned and guilt-tripped into giving in, every time. It’s why we get so upset at their lack of backbone and their refusal to take a firm, unwavering stand on principle. It’s why we love PDJT.
Perfect description!
c 
e n t i pe d eThe good news is, if you know about all those old quarters, you automatically have a head start on old dimes, old half dollars, and old silver dollars (and half dimes).
There are differences in detail, of course. There was a “Flowing hair Dollar” (and half dollar, and half dime), before the draped bust, basically 1794-1795. They never made a quarter (or dime) in that style, so of course I didn’t show one. And the exact years of transition are different, to say nothing of the gaps when they made no coin of a denomination at all (quarters are the worst in that regard).

This is chilling. Justin Trudeau:
They’ve been working on it for years, and they’re not going to stop. The same as here, except we have the 2A. I wonder what the Canadian people will do.
Just remember — Justin Trudesceau…..especially around Christmas.
Other countries should be looking at the U.S. with envy right now.
Other countries have been looking at America with envy since 1782 or so, and that is the major problem.
Britain has been the lead plotter against us ever since. But they are in league with others. I never forget it, not since I became aware of it.
The “rank-and-file” average politician in those other countries is probably not ever aware of it. This cabal is the deepest, darkest secret. But looking back through history, you can see it if you are looking for it. Vile creatures.
Yup. Most Britons are wonderful people – different from us, but with much in common. But move toward British intelligence, and you move toward a long history of fooling, manipulating, and abusing Americans.
The Tavistock Institute (mass psychologists) – which has pushed gun control and “trans” by any means possible – including mass murders – THEY are an arm of British intelligence operations.
If I was President, I would throw Tavistock and its people out of America immediately, and begin sanctioning them everywhere.
Agreed.
So I suppose using Trudeau logic that all the handguns carried by Canadian security forces are for hunting and sport. That explains a lot.

OK, here’s some fun about fish — even from Lake T.
One of the irritations about being in the hobby for a number of years is that the splitters or the lumpers rename all your fish. Here’s an example from splitters —
https://www.tfhmagazine.com/articles/freshwater/lake-tanganyikan-synodontisthe-revision
Back in the day, essentially any non-angelfish or discus cichlid from Central or South America was “Cichlasoma”.
Now, if you take any five fish you once knew, you’ll likely have five different genera.
Trichromis salvini
Heros severus
Astronotus ocellatus
Amatitlania nigrofasciata
Herichthys cyanoguttatus
These are common fish, and all used to be called “Cichlasoma”.
The last fish is actually the only cichlid native to the United States.
That’s what I call going deep in the seaweed.
It goes with the territory.
Speaking of severums….
I once had a blonde one named “Sven”.
Sven of Nine? She sure is a fine specimen.
HAH! In the notifier, the post you’re replying to is partially quoted. It read “I once had a blonde…” [followed by the first bit of your reply] and I thought things were getting racy here.
I think it was Spider Robinson who thought that “Norwegian Wood” was actually “Knowing She Would” before the censors got to it.
And then there’s the filk song about the magic sword:
I once had a sword,
or should I say,
it once had me.
the song describes getting rid of the sword in favor of a club, and ends,
isn’t it good,

My adventures in computing started with these —
— we had three of them hooked up to an HP 21114A minicomputer that used magnetic core memory. They were timesharing Dartmouth BASIC.
To restart the processor, we had to set switches to begin a bootloader, then put a spool of punched paper tape into a reader on the front of the computer. It was optical, so much faster than the mechanical teletypes, but still dumped it on the floor.
Yikes, you predate me, somewhat.
My first programming class in college I was one of the guinea pigs..my section (out of three) got to use a “micro” computer, brand name colonial, with 8″ floppies. Yes, 8 inch. The other two sections still got to use punch cards.
My assembly class was PDP-11 language. But we didn’t program a PDP-11. No, we ran our code through a *simulator* of a PDP-11 that ran on a Cyber-7700 (at least, we could enter our code on a terminal). Which in its day was a supercomputer (It’s a Cray predecessor).
Apropos of nothing in particular, I got firewall qubes made from minimal templates done (I had a mental roadblock that wouldn’t let me see what I had to do earlier), and the same realization helped me create the machine that I will now use to open dodgy e-mail attachments sent to me by pgroup2; this machine is set up to open everything in a disposable virtual machine.
The next big thing is figuring out whonix. It’s sitting there; I doubt I need to do anything with it…I just don’t have any idea how it works.
I got your dodgy email attachments right here …

Same here. Early 80’s in the utility business. I remember being clueless at that point as my experience with computing consisted of DP punch cards and fortran into the IBM monster in college. Still am clueless. I turn it on, it works, I’m good to go. But the office staff loved the above. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

What’s interesting there is how they mention the use of it by Russia and Trump, but nothing about our MSM (“The Hoax” being a prime example).

That’s what I think.
They needed a scapegoat for that side-effect, ran a search, found “monkeypox,” thought ‘that sounds scary,’ and spread the mis-info.
But we are too smart for them.
we are caught in a global Ponzi pyramid scam.
this is a controlled demolition of every facet of life that we used to think of as “normal”.

They have to gaslight us and have to cover it up because if enough people come out of this fog the hell will break loose.
Oh, yeah.
Remember that poor woman who had blisters all over from the jab? We saw a pic of that . I believe she was a pastors wife. When I close my eyes I still see her.
I do.
Yes how will they explain that ? They hope we forget.
We need to be careful of CDC inflated data – I will agree with that. They are likely to do things like trumpeting the numbers of “suspected” cases, etc., to get numbers they want.
BUT…..
Monkeypox is quite real and quite easy to confirm by old science.
In fact, we could have fast tests for [non-chicken-pox] “pox” disease just like for COVID, if we wanted them.
Here is exemplary science based on confirmed cases (this was the Portugal outbreak).
https://virological.org/t/multi-country-outbreak-of-monkeypox-virus-genetic-divergence-and-first-signs-of-microevolution/806
Here is sequencing which basically screams “it’s monkeypox”, and can be used by any scientist.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/ON563414
There ARE real cases, and – e.g. – most if not ALL of the “confirmed” cases are actually monkeypox, because (literally) they are confirmed by genetics.
Here is how they’re testing for monkeypox, using NAAT (based on PCR) and sequencing on samples collected from the lesions.
https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/354488/WHO-MPX-Laboratory-2022.1-eng.pdf?sequence=1
Because it’s PCR, it can be abused in the hands of Democrats. However, in the hands of honest scientists (there are a few of us), running good controls and using solid science, PCR can still get good results.
Getting a good sequence from a clinically solid lesion is iron-clad proof of monkeypox IMO. A “positive” NAAT result is basically “fingerprint of smaller sequences confirmed” – it’s less proof than a full sequence, IMO, but still pretty solid, IMO.
Bingo
Do not remember where I read that some women developed blisters in their privates also young girls teenagers. Then the news disappeared concerning that problem. Also that an upswing on skin problems was reported that also disappeared.
May have something to do with diseases being spread by the perverse promiscuous woke crowd and ped0 crowd.
Excellent!
Indeed that is a central question. And not just in politics.
Before you can decide what is a value, you have to understand what it is that makes something a value, or an unvalue (to invent a word).

JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
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.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER

Thank you so much for your words of wisdom today!
Yours Truly is still not happy, however, about what looks like the appearance of a “more positive treatment” of Maya Angelou on the reverse of the new quarter, as compared to that of George Washington on the front of the same coin.
Yours Truly suspects that the “draped bust” female on the earlier coins reflected the fact that females at that time wore corsets. The corset was laced in such a way that one’s “assets” were “trussed up high” (in the language of the time).
The latter first: The model is supposed to have been a prominent socialite of the time, and I’ll bet she did what was fashionable (i.e., artificial “correction” of “droop”).
Yeah, I’m willing to acknowledge that people can differ on the Washington portrait (because they obviously do), but that doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s much uglier than the Houdon one. In other words, you can count me among the dissatisfied.
Someone told me he thought the Sally Ride quarter was pretty good but I haven’t seen one. I can’t for the life of me figure out why they thought Angelou was worth putting on a coin.

and don’t forget their flying-monkeys.
Reading all about Washington on coins, and looking at the portraits reminds me of what I’ve always known as an artist. There are two REALLY hard things to portray properly in sculpture, or honestly any other medium; hands and HAIR.
Take a look every time you see a portrait at the hands. Some artists nail them, many fail.
And hair. Don’t get me started. If you think about it, it makes total sense why it is so hard. Individual hairs, which float around in the air, are pretty much impossible to portray in any medium. But we see them when we look at people in actuality. Which makes art-hair seem stiff and plastic.
Hair is also the holy grail of CGI. Along with running water.
Yes! CGI all looks fake as hell to me.
WATCH: Obama Admits His ‘Pro Democracy’ Initiatives Are Losing Against China. (substack.com)
Raheem Kassam
I barely can stand the shadow of a man. What is taking me back is his insistent that we are a democracy. Does he not know that we are a Republic or is that intentionally? The guy was our president and so illiterate or purpose driven ignorance?
I am going to scream if I hear another person saying we are a democracy.
The other maybe no one realized he was excusing to get to where one wants to take a country one has to go though famine or civil war?
He used china as example and our civil war?
Then the young man supposed to have said about china ” they have some restrictions” implying that is better than our system?
Does he not know about the concentration camps the brutal attack and persecution on Christians the brutal forced abortions? Obama truly is the Satan incarnate.
I agree about “democracy,” but dictionaries do define it as what we have now.
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/democracy
Even conservatives on our side use the term “democracy.” But yes, it would be much better if they would use “republic” or “representative republic” because it would make the distinction and make people more aware.
Very good I learned even more
Dictionaries have been known to change definitions to suit the politics of the day.
You can’t say that! Prepare to be cancelled!

Why aren’t the Unselects bringing in the experts, of which there are many, to show how the Election was Rigged & Stolen? The reason can only be that the “Committee” knows it is unable to respond to the facts. They would look like fools on live television. The whole Unselect Scam, just like the RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA HOAX, would be exposed. WITCH HUNT!
Must be the next current thing judging by the flags.
And yes, there’s several pages of search results for this now.

No class, no dignity, no self-respect or self-awareness, no principles.
Add in likely complicit too. He’s done anti gun talk stuff before Uvalde and he’s from Uvalde and that’s a bit too much of a coincidence for me.
this might shed some light…
Just think women go through that hell every month and make men’s life hell
Girls just joking not really
I remember these protests happening, maybe before COVID, but I can’t remember what point they were trying to make. Whatever it was, it’s outdated now because the Left insists that men can do everything a woman can. So no biggie.
Those hapless women is amazing. Have their grandmothers not taught them anything life before tampons ?

Authored by Tsvetana Paraskova via OilPrice.com
The EU’s embargo on 90 percent of all its oil imports from Russia by the end of the year made most headlines last week after the bloc reached a watered-down deal to ban most of Russia’s oil.
But the much bigger blow to Russian oil exports that will have dramatic consequences on the global oil tanker market and oil prices comes from provision number two in the latest sanctions package – EU operators will be prohibited from insuring and financing the marine transportation of Russian oil to third countries.
con’t at link
RED China and India are perfectly willing and able to buy all the oil that Russia can sell them. Chiefio and Pointman both have posts about that.
The idiocy of the EU supporting Ukraine grows by the day; and von der Leyen and her WEFfenSS ilk couldn’t care less about the destruction of the economies (and people) of the nations of Europe as “collateral damage”…..
She has a heart of stone and a brain of brick… but she comes from an “Adel” family… (hence the “von der” in her name)…..
Reality is starting to filter through in some parts of the West

Hence the mobilisation of women.
Factor in the power of numbers, the higher the number of dead,
the more they can spin how very very important it is to receive $$$$$$$…lots of it
Today on Bannon Prince was on he said ” the 40 billions to Ukraine have not tickled down”.
When the war is over no one will know what happened to the money. We need to hold the Republicans responsible they were democrats enablers.
The money, as always, will trickle back to the DNC and their deep-state DEMON masters… Same as all the BLM monies ended up at the DNC,too. The Klintoon Foundation is proof positive of that…
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr to DC
All them dead Ukraine soldiers continue getting paid by the US…a portion of the $40 billion.
Ukraine has notified Russia that it does not intend to comply with the Geneva Convention on the Treatment of Prisoners of War. This was stated at a press conference by the spokeswoman of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.
Russian POWs
Kiev reneges on Geneva Conventions for Russian POWs
The leadership of Ukraine confided in Britain that it did not intend to comply with the Geneva Convention on the Treatment of Prisoners of War.
Funny how Zelensky is the hip cool face of the U army but when the message is negative, as in, war crime area..it’s “the leadership of Ukraine”…Zelensky owns this
Right Molly

I hope Brits have ethics to stand by the Geniva convention and kick Ukraine where it hurts. Biden got in bed with Nazis he needs to pay for that so also the congress for supporting this farce.

Comment posted at MoA just a bit ago……….
“German press a few moments ago nice little headline
Von der Leyen tells Zelensky to eliminate Corruption
BWAH – blame game in full swing now.”
von der Leyen is a dyed-in-the-wool globalist, and is desperate for a war, maybe to replenish the German military that she destroyed on her watch as defense Ministerin.
Odd that we’ve now had FOUR women defense ministers, and they’ve all been terrible; I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t know which end of a gun (or a tank, for that matter) should be pointed forward…
Most of our equipment doesn’t work. Oh, but we do have plenty of winter uniforms for pregnant infantrywomen!!! (I kid you not!)…..
it’s those hot ‘German summers, right?
All that Gore-Bull warming…
Well the guns don’t shoot straight when they heat up (after only a few rounds!). The A400M military transports don’t fly well, the choppers don’t chop, the one functioning sub (others have crashed into docks, etc.) is overdue for repairs, the armor on our tanks is ineffective, and, and, and.
Hmmm. Maybe vdL was thinking of invading Russia in the winter? Seems a few people have tried that before (to no good result). Then her name would go down in history alongside Napoleon…. and Hitler…
Exactly! How old is she? Perhaps she hasn’t read history? Google or wiki don’t cover facts
63. She’s a late boomer… born in Belgium of “blue blood” parentage, she’s German, according to Wacky… but not really German considering that she’s an out-and-out globalist.
Belgium itself is rather interesting as it’s really a pasted-up country, with a few VERY different peoples pushed together. Sounds like the French or the Brits wanted to cheese off some folks (say, Holland and “the Oranges”)…
Everything coming out of Brussels (and, it seems, Belgium) turns to, erm, sheet…..

Another comment lifted from MoA:
“Eventually Odessa surrenders without the destruction of the city. Seems reasonable to me.”
(phoenix/ to which another posted this:)
“A perspective that leaves out the obvious: Russia may not have to be the vehicle that destroys Odessa. Kievian Ukraine may elect to do so as a “parting” gift from the collective “West” to the insolence shown by its carefully crafted opponent.”

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/fbi-chief-comey-misled-congresss-gang-8-over-russiagate-lisa-page-memo-reveals
Authored by Paul Sperry via RealClear Investigations,
The FBI deceived the House, Senate and the Justice Department about the substance and strength of evidence undergirding its counterintelligence investigation of President Trump, according to a recently declassified document and other material.
A seven-page internal FBI memo dated March 8, 2017, shows that “talking points” prepared for then-FBI Director James Comey for his meeting the next day with the congressional leadership were riddled with half-truths, outright falsehoods, and critical omissions. Both the Senate and the House opened investigations and held hearings based in part on the misrepresentations made in those FBI briefings, one of which was held in the Senate that morning and the other in the House later that afternoon. RealClearInvestigations reached out to every member of the leadership, sometimes known as the “Gang of Eight.” Some declined to comment, while others did not respond to queries.
The talking points were prepared by Lisa Page, a senior FBI lawyer who later resigned from the bureau amid accusations of anti-Trump bias, and were used by Comey in his meeting with Hill leaders. They described reports the FBI received in 2016 from “a former FBI CHS,” or confidential human source, about former Trump campaign officials Paul Manafort and Carter Page (no relation to Lisa Page) allegedly conspiring with the Kremlin to hack the election.
…
By this point, however, the FBI knew that the main source feeding unsubstantiated rumors to the informant, Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence agent paid by Hillary Clinton’s campaign to dig up dirt on Trump, was American-based.
con’t at link
Okay, but the Gang of Eight looks to be doing their own Toss Under the Bus CYA trick with the FBI getting the thump thump thump thump. Pretty sure they had access to other information that would of called into question what the FBI was telling them as there was plenty of information going around then saying it was all lies that we knew about.
But it’s all good. Demonstrates that it’s all cracking up for them.
Right!
lifted from comments at MoA:
“Reuters is reporting a chemical fire at the Azot chemical plant and blaming it on Russian shelling…didn’t we read about this false flag being set up a few day ago?
Reuters is also reporting that Russia says it will respond to NATO buildup in Poland
The shit show continues until it doesn’t”
Won’t get them anywhere. Russia has continuously shown they aren’t going to use any sort of Chem and it will be seen for what it is. Desperation on Zelenskyy’s part. If by some way this does make waves, then it will be showing the West is desperate. Big mistake if they push it.
Probably a nazi FF because they can’t get their own way and be allowed to go home,
***********************
” Miroshnik, an adviser to the head of the LPR, reports that up to 400 Ukrainian soldiers and officers are blocked on the territory of the Azot plant in Severodonetsk.
According to him, the bridge to Lisichansk is damaged and is under fire, which is why the enemy cannot retreat to Lisichansk. The enemy got in touch and demanded a safe retreat to Lisichansk under the cover of civilians who had taken refuge at the plant.
The Gauileter of the territories of the LPR occupied by the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated that all this is a lie and that in fact the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to defend the industrial zone of the Azot plant (He didn’t mention the “counteroffensive” in the city).”

Ukraine Bits: No Ammo, More Casualties, Thin Lines, Propaganda And Passing The Buck
The real state of the war in Ukraine, which I had described some two months ago, has now reached the main stream media. The Zelensky regime in Ukraine is using it to beg the ‘west’ for more guns and ammunition.
From the last link:
The Independent claims to have seen an intelligence report that showed even worse numbers:

Maybe they can send the Taliban a message…Need stuff ASAP, please send
I do like the way you think!
LOL … it’s all so ridiculous anymore.
I hear the Taliban has halted poppy growth… if true, they have given ‘irony’ a new meaning!
Yes me also
Maybe the Taliban have it on Craigslist
(Keyboardist is Ray Manzarek, from the Doors! – there’s a vid out of him doing rehearsals with Weird Al… great stuff)…
So Trump has endorsed another female RINO swamper for Alabama? Over Mo Brooks? Anyone able to explain this one for me?
I have increasingly found many endorsements questionable and concerning. Not maga just “R”.
Anyone else?

I don’t think a lot of people/politicians realize how serious the 2020 steal was. Our country was literally overtaken by people backed by foreign nations. I would have found a Trump endorsement of someone who says we have to move on from 2020, questionable. Trump is one of a handful who remain firm on this.
Hmm ok, but my understanding is the britt woman is a family friend of the

Not sure; I haven’t looked into it.

Seriously tho…and if he’s actually distancing his opinion on j6 from ivanka and jared i dont think these endorsements are their doing. So what gives?

Azot is a situation something like Azovstal only it is a chemical plant rather than a steelworks. Apparently the nazi’s had mined the place and were trapped there but holding a large number of civilian hostages.”
oops ,,, should have waited… this is from 2014… disinformation! I APOLOGIZE
There’s lots of stuff out there from 2014, which is when this dust-up started, thanks to Satan Sauros’s “color revolution” to take down the duly-elected president there. Then they’re posting stuff from other places, other wars, and even VIDEO GAMES!!!! (for which they’ve been sued). I can just see a pic coming up with Zelensky going “all your bases are belong to us”… (famous vid game meme from long ago)…
This is an odd sort of tripartite war: a (somewhat) convential ground war, a Psychoterror war of propaganda, and a DEMONIC spiritual war, which covers both the seen and unseen realms.
So many lies flying about… and most of them intended to make the good folks look bad…..

Cuppa,

“… According to RT Germany has chosen the anniversary of the start of Barbarossa to start delivering heavy weapons to Ukraine.
“Ukraine will receive the first batch of heavy weapons from Germany around June 22, Ukrainian Ambassador to Berlin Andrey Melnyk told Ukraine’s Novoye Vremya newspaper on Friday. The delivery is expected to include seven PzH 2000 howitzers promised by German Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht in early May, he added.
“We will get these systems around June 22,” Melnyk said, referring to the howitzers as he again criticized Berlin for being too slow with the arms shipments. The date named by the ambassador was the very day that Nazi Germany invaded the Soviet Union back in 1941. The USSR included both Ukraine and Russia at that time, and Ukraine was among the first Soviet territories attacked by the Nazis….”
Why would anyone serious tell their ‘enemy’ about when the big guns arrive? “These people are supid.” Q
They don’t really want them to get where they’re going.
Kanzler (I know nothing) Scholz is AGAINST weapons deliveries to Ukraine, while the Greens (ironically) and the FDP are for it… rumor has it that Macron is also pro-Russia without actually saying it…
So from what I see in the alternate media (as well as what my son’s seen and heard) is that these deliveries are not certain… sounds like Zelensky is being strung along… another thing is the SPD (Scholz’s and Lambrecht’s party) is quietly against Ukraine as well, partly because of the massive influence of Gernard Schröder…
Of course, anything we send will get blown up by Russia in short order… maybe we have old kit they want to get rid of (that probably doesn’t work) and this is a sneaky way of getting rid of it… cf the Poles and their MIGs…
The Greens are stupid enough to want to send the stuff, the FDP (the Freimaurer [Freemason] Partei is only in it for the money, and the SPD (socialists) are not in favor of it. I’m still baffled at how much power the Greens have in relation to their poor showing in the elections against the SPD and the CDU/CSU (14% versus 26% and 25% [dis]respectively…

Doctors Suing Food And Drug Administration Over Ivermectin

https://thedreizinreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Critical-Race-Theory__FACT-SHEET.pdf
Critical Race Theory – FACT SHEET What is Critical Race Theory? How did it take over the U.S. military so quickly? How does it relate to Intersectionalism? Why are today’s leftists so obsessed with glorifying and propagandizing “gender-bending” persons and activities? Historical basis; precedent and divergence.
• Critical Race Theory (CRT) is a reboot of Marxism, with demographics having replaced economics, due to a confidence crisis within academic Marxism in the U.S. and UK following the collapse of the Socialist Bloc—up to then an inspiration for legions of college professors of political science, sociology, comparative literature, etc.—in 1989- 1991.
• Until 2020, CRT was referred to by conservative intellectuals as “cultural Marxism.” • Like Bolsheviks or Maoists, CRT’s proponents are totalitarians who brook no dissent, aiming to destroy all who stand in their way. Under CRT, merely supporting the free speech or due process rights of the accused is a crime. The accused—even if their sins date from their childhood—must be fired and expunged from the public sphere.
• However, where “traditional” Marxism splits the world into tenant farmer or wage-slave oppressed vs. large property/asset-owning oppressors, CRT identifies the oppressed mostly by skin color as well as by sexual preferences. This throws Marxism upsidedown, inverting the oppressor-oppressed numerical proportion pyramid.
• In the “traditional” version, the oppressed constitute the overwhelming share of any population. But CRT quickly ran out of minorities who would take it seriously (“bluecollar” blacks and Hispanics already have a religion) and ended up chasing after—and setting on a pedestal to worship—persons of the cross-dressing or sex-change persuasion, who comprise perhaps 1/500 of the population in Western countries, and closer to zero in others. CRT has thus substituted extreme outlier, envelope-pushing, “shock doctrine” exoticism for genuine, broad-based, “oppressed minority” buy-in.
• While the oppressed are “holy” in both true Marxism and CRT, in the former, any rich kid can have an epiphany and become a hero-saint for the oppressed (e.g., Che Guevarra.) Conversely, in CRT, the oppressors, even if “woke” (hip to the movement), are mere peasant spectators at a hanging, or whipping their own backs like medieval cultists.

Largest US Pork Packer Closing California Plant, Citing High Costs and Red Tape
Smithfields Inc., the largest pork packer in the United States, is leaving California due to high operational costs and red tape.
“Smithfield Foods, Inc. today announced that it will cease all harvest and processing operations in Vernon, California in early 2023 and, at the same time, align its hog production system by reducing its sow herd in its Western region,” the company said on Friday in a statement.
Smithfield also plans to reduce its sow herd in Utah and exit its farms in Arizona and California.
Instead, the company will serve California customers with its Farmer John brand and other brands and products from current facilities in the Midwest.
“Smithfield is taking these steps due to the escalating cost of doing business in California,” the company explained.
The company, owned by Hong Kong-listed WH Group Ltd., said that workers at the plant will be offered financial and transition assistance, including the option to relocate to other Smithfield facilities.
Jim Monroe, vice president for corporate affairs of Smithfield, said two main factors drove the company’s decision: high costs and overregulation.
“The cost of doing business in California is significantly higher than other states where we operate. Utilities, for example, are 3.5 times per head higher than our other location where we do the same work. Taxes and other costs are significantly higher,” he told The Epoch Times.
Meanwhile, it’s also challenging to operate in the Golden State because of the red tape.
He cited Proposition 12, a state law passed by voters in 2018, as a prime example.
Propositions 12—an animal protection bill backed by the Humane Society—mandates factory farms to give hens, sows, and veal calves enough room to stand up, lie down, turn around, and stretch their limbs without hitting the sides of a cage.
The law also implements a sales ban against noncompliant animal products including eggs, pork, and veal, from out of state.
The Epoch Times reached out to California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office for comments.

“The Russian army already controls large parts of Ukraine, and they can suspend hostilities with a territorial advantage.”
Actually, according to the latest analysis, Russia can in a few weeks have reached all the main territorial objectives once Luhansk and Donetsk breakaway Republics are secured, and the Donbas liberated.
Also, Russian forces took most coastal southern areas, and if they move west and take Mykolaiv and Odessa, they would turn Ukraine into a landlocked coutry.

The one on the right, Nandini Jammi, so-founded the group “Sleeping Giants” partially on the premise that most large corporations don’t even know where their ads are running (dud to letting ad-farms decide where to run them, etc.).

Interesting that “Sleeping Giants” was founded around the same time VSGPDJT became President. Wonder if the DEMONIC N C, the Klintoons, Satan Sauros, or all three were involved in funding it…
Wonder if there’s some was to push back WITH TRUTH against the likes of them? Heartland used to do that in the Climate Wars (yeah, they’re RINO, but they did some good stuff, too).
