ACTS 8:26-40

26But an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert road. 27And he rose and went. And behold, an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a minister of the Can’dace, queen of the Ethiopians, in charge of all her treasure, had come to Jerusalem to worship 28and was returning; seated in his chariot, he was reading the prophet Isaiah. 29And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go up and join this chariot.” 30So Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” 31And he said, “How can I, unless some one guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him. 32Now the passage of the scripture which he was reading was this: “As a sheep led to the slaughter or a lamb before its shearer is dumb, so he opens not his mouth. 33In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken up from the earth.” 34And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, pray, does the prophet say this, about himself or about some one else?” 35Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this scripture he told him the good news of Jesus. 36And as they went along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What is to prevent my being baptized?” 38And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught up Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing. 40But Philip was found at Azo’tus, and passing on he preached the gospel to all the towns till he came to Caesare’a.

PSALMS 66:8-9, 16-17, 20

7who rules by his might for ever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations — let not the rebellious exalt themselves. [Selah] 8Bless our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard, 15I will offer to thee burnt offerings of fatlings, with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams; I will make an offering of bulls and goats. [Selah] 16Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for me. 19But truly God has listened; he has given heed to the voice of my prayer.

JOHN 6:44-51

44No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day. 45It is written in the prophets, `And they shall all be taught by God.’ Every one who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me. 46Not that any one has seen the Father except him who is from God; he has seen the Father. 47Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. 48I am the bread of life. 49Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die. 51I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh.”

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

TheseTruths

It’s terrible, but we seem to be at a stalemate. The medical industrial complex controls doctors and hospitals, and the mask/vax/COVID propaganda continues. I don’t know how many people, or which people besides us, are getting this information.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Things are changing slowly, IMO. I think Tucker is right. The lies are not sustainable.

TheseTruths

I can’t post the chart here. A couple of readings from it for doses administered:
March 31, 2021 – 4,172,108
April 18, 2023 – 5,243

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Let’s see if this posts…..

vaccination-trends.png
TheseTruths

Great; thanks!

Here is a devastating list of 1844 athletes who have died since being vaxed, with a few details about each.
https://goodsciencing.com/covid/athletes-suffer-cardiac-arrest-die-after-covid-shot/

slowcreekno

Did the reporting stop after March 2022? All the tall red pillars correspond to 2021, but did that pattern continue after March last year? Or did TPTB realize the horrible implications and scary consequences and stopped publishing the numbers at that point?

RDS

IMO, there are a couple of things going on:
One, the CDC stopped accepting foreign reports of COVID-19 “vaccine” adverse events / deaths to be put into the VAERS database.
Two, the CDC / FDA started to obfuscate the effects of the COVID-19 “vaccines” to “other reasons”, such as “diet”, “prior medical conditions”, and so on.

IMO, the truth is that the CDC / FDA / AMA know exactly what’s going on regarding the COVID-19 “vaccines” disaster. And, unless the 90+% of American MD’s who are “vaccinated and boosted” live under a rock, they know it also. IMO, they’re realizing, slowly, that every one of them is a walking “time bomb” of COVID-19 “vaccines” adverse events / side effects — just as their “vaccinated and boosted” patients are. While, at the same time, these MD’s understand that if they speak out in any way against these “vaccines”, they could lose their licenses to practice medicine, their academic positions, their professional-organization membership, and their salaries.

Gail Combs

DEPOPULATION….

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

It looks like it was based on a freedom of information request.

The NHS DID stop reporting certain things, but not this particular data, as far as I know.

I suspect that the problematic rise is likely either staying the same or falling slightly. The great thing, scientifically, is that NO MATTER what it does – rise, fall, or stay the same – it implicates the vaccines. HOWEVER, what it does after that, will have huge bearing on whether “vaccine increases of risk of death” are ongoing or resolve in individuals. THAT is a very important question.

I suspect that the risk remains high. I think that the depopulation effects of the vaccines (more specifically of the spike protein) “bake in” to the population in a variety of ways, some scientifically obvious, and others less so, and simply raise the death rate.

Gail Combs

One of the big questions is if the illness ALSO is a slow killer thanks to the spike protein.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Based on this data and Ethical Skeptic’s data, I think we can be fairly confident that no matter what, the long-term bad effects of the disease will be a FRACTION of the long-term bad effects of the vaccines. Furthermore, it looks to me like the problem was primarily the Wuhan variant, which was likely designed as a bioweapon. IMO, Omicron and later seems to have evolved away from depopulation potential.

Gail Combs

Hopefully that also applies to the Ralph Baric version I caught.

RDS

Agreed regarding the long-term negative effects of the disease itself as compared to those of the “vaccines.” However, since the FDA approved the inclusion of the Wuhan virus in the formulation of future COVID-19 “vaccines” (like the “bivalent vaccines” that are now the only ones people can get, other than the Novavax “vaccine” [also Wuhan-virus based]), wouldn’t that mean that the depopulation potential is still “baked into the cake”, so to speak, for all future COVID-19 “variant vaccines”?

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I’m leaving open the possibilities that (1) somebody will get smart and drop the extremely idiotic and nonsensical (unless they’re trying to kill us) Wuhan inclusion, and (2) that the apparent move to nasal vaccines takes hold.

Yes, right now, nobody in their right mind should take any of the current or soon-to-be-released COVID vaccines.

Valerie Curren

I HOPE this is correct. Perhaps the post-“vax” protocol as well as the long-hauler’s protocol should be looked at for Everybody?

kalbokalbs

Perhaps.

At this point quite fortunate, Covidiocy wise. Credit to QTreepers educating me.

Thank you, dear DePat, for bringing us a post of uncommon depth, amazing breadth, and towering heights.

Great Thursday staple. Keeps me on track, with day of the week.

cthulhu

I’m actually trying to spark a debate — or, at least, a meditation — on what we appreciate about DePat’s posts….in the guise of light, very dry humor.

Is it that she brings us additional knowledge of hot topics (depth), that she covers topics other places do not (breadth) or she brings us more clever analysis (height)? I suspect that it isn’t just the flower paintings, camels rocks, license plates, or libations….

We are very fortunate to have something special here with our dear DePat, with the most special bit likely being different from reader to reader. We should consider this from time to time and extend some appreciation.

kalbokalbs

Absolutely.

Just trying to be light hearted, tongue in cheek, jabs at slow guy…day of the week.  🙃 

  • Damn sure NOT intended as an insult, or anything of the like. Poking fun at the guy, I see in the mirror.

DP brings great stuff…via significant effort. Clearly DP is quite organized.

Personally, I really, really, like DPs layout.

  1. Links of stuff of common interest to QTreepers. Some have limited copy paste, or DP comments. Many opened in Tabs for dedicated reading.
  2. TWs are great. Also opened in dedicated Tabs, for dedicated reading / watching, listening.
  3. Memes funny and informative. Crack me up hugely, as do many TWs.
  4. Business portion.
  5. Babylon Bee great addition. (Sadly accurate to real life these days)

Then I read every post. Followed by, reading all the Tabs, opened from links and TWs.

Collectively, incredibly informative. Which I greatly appreciate AND learn from.

My smart ass aside, I truly do like the daily staples…headers.

  • All seven days, have header, staples. I like them all.
  • Comfort in routine, simple as that is. Among our daily turmoil AND lunacy.
  • Easily observed, slow guy, is also a simpleton.

YUP!
All those ‘eurodollars’ held outside the USA.

Eurodollar: Definition, Why It’s Important, and Example
What Is the Eurodollar?The term eurodollar refers to U.S. dollar-denominated deposits at foreign banks or at the overseas branches of American banks. Because they are held outside the United States, eurodollars are not subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board, including reserve requirements. Dollar-denominated deposits not subject to U.S. banking regulations were originally held almost exclusively in Europe (hence, the name eurodollar). Now, they are also widely held in branches located in the Bahamas and the Cayman Islands.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Eurodollars refer to dollar-denominated accounts at foreign banks or overseas branches of American banks.
  • The eurodollar market is one of the world’s biggest capital markets and consists of sophisticated financial instruments.

Understanding the EurodollarThe fact that the eurodollar market is relatively free of regulation means such deposits can pay higher interest. Their offshore location makes them subject to political and economic risk in the country of their domicile; however, most branches where the deposits are housed are in very stable locations.
The eurodollar market is one of the world’s primary international capital markets. They require a steady supply of depositors putting their money into foreign banks. These eurodollar banks may have problems with their liquidity if the supply of deposits drops. 
Deposits from overnight out to a week are priced based on the fed funds rate. Prices for longer maturities are based on the corresponding London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Eurodollar deposits are quite large; they are made by professional counterparties for a minimum of $100,000 and generally for more than $5 million. It is not uncommon for a bank to accept a single deposit of $500 million or more in the overnight market. A 2014 study by the Federal Reserve Bank showed an average daily volume in the market of $140 billion.
Most transactions in the eurodollar market are overnight, which means they mature on the next business day….”

How the Eurodollar system works (and why it matters)Peaking under the hood of the massive offshore dollar market

The “Euro” in Eurodollar doesn’t refer to the Europeans or their funky currency. “Eurodollar” refers to offshore dollars. I.e. dollars moving around internationally, outside of the American banking system. The Federal Reserve does not control the Eurodollar system, nor does any other American regulator.

The Eurodollar network is comprised of international banks and money lenders, with a few hubs like London, Tokyo and the Cayman islands playing a key role. Here’s an example of how a transaction might work in the Eurodollar system…

This is a crucial point: at no point are physical dollars involved in this transaction. There’s no cash because the Eurodollar is a ledger system. Banks and money lenders update their ledgers and that’s how so-called dollars are transferred. The creation of “dollars” comes down to accounting gimmicks….

Beer is the world’s oldest beverage, dating back at least 12,000 years. The Mesopotamians had a goddess of beer-making, Ninkasi, and a “Hymn to Ninkasi” on cuneiform tablets is one of the oldest known recipes for making beer.

“Iit’s okay to be sober” was what the commenter wrote when he posted that pic. It is most likely just the use of a somewhat-familiar phrase to illustrate the point that we can easily boycott companies that are promoting the LGBTXYZ agenda, just as people here take phrases from literature and media out of context to fit the point they are trying to get across.

Homebrew Beer Recipes

Browse our growing list of 270,000+ homebrew beer recipes. Sort by beer style, batch size, ABV and more for all-grain, extract or partial mash brewing.

Given the 5+ ac of Abrussi Rye that has bolted and is now ripening….

cthulhu

There was an article a while back that posited that the famous German beer purity law was not about the purity of beer, but rather to avoid starving peasants. By saying beer had to be made of barley, it freed up rye to be used to make cheap bread.

Previously, growers had devoted both to making beer because beer had a higher profit margin.

Distillation further skews grains and their export values. Tennessee and Kentucky are famous for whiskeys because they opened up massive amounts of land to grain production while the lucrative markets were still on the East Coast. It was far easier to ship three wagons of whiskey over the mountains than 42 wagons of grain.

Gail Combs

AND that led to the The Whiskey Rebellion Of 1794.

cthulhu
SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

L. Neil Smith wrote a whole series of science fiction dealing with an alternate universe where the Whiskey rebellion succeeded, the Constitution was declared null and void, and we all lived happily ever after. The first book was written roughly 1980 and was set in 1987 and our hero, a Denver cop, finds himself kicked into that alternate universe…much more techlogically advanced and open carry is ubiquitous. All money is hard money.

Very entertaining.

He is an “anarchocapitalist” who believes government is totally unnecessary…I don’t go that far.

Gail Combs

Mark Stoval:

9,000 years of anarchy in Ireland? | On the Mark

Rothbard wrote, “This was ancient Ireland—an Ireland which persisted in this libertarian path for roughly a thousand years until its brutal conquest by England in the seventeenth century.” There is much evidence of farming, prosperous trading communities, centers of art, and religious areas going back 9,000 years but no evidence of any State.

I have argued with Mark. The problem is the Thugs on Horseback who do not want to work for a living.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Those basically become a de-facto government. The L Neil Smith counter to that point is that if everyone is armed, the thugs on horseback can’t do anything, but I disagree; they just form a gang and pick on people piecemeal and brutalize them until others decide its not worth the risk and knuckle under–or band together under a leader and stomp them. Either way: a government, just without the trappings we’re used to .

Gail Combs

Exactly. You are also looking at a bunch of ‘warriors’ vs a family of farmers.

The modern day equivalent of ANTIFA/BLM vs shop keepers in cities a few years ago.

A major problem is the hit and run tactic. Land owners have to sit in one place and defend.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Another counter is land titles.

One function the government performs is as a registry of who owns what real estate. That’s essential, even if they abuse it to impose property taxes.

The anarchocapitalist says well what if some private company was the registr? Well if it were a private company, it could have a competitor. In fact I could start such a company and use it to register YOUR land in my sister’s or brother’s name. Who are you going to appeal to? Your preferred title company? It’s just another company.

My neighbor had a deer jump into the back seat of her car. After staring at each other eyeball to eyeball for a few seconds, the deer jumped out the other window.

She has been nervous about driving ever since.

I had a turkey surf over the hood, up the windshield over the roof into the back of the pick up. I also had an eagle surf over the hood from right to left. I never knew the back of an eagle is WHITE until that day.

Hubby had a black jaguar run across the road in front of him. We mentioned it at the feed store and found others had sighted black jaguars too. The gov’t denies it but a NC resident caught them releasing a breeding pair in the mountains. They chose black (melanistic) so it would be easier to call people crazy.

Tucker’s first commentary since being fired was on Twitter at his usual time – 8pm.

At 1:05 am he had 26.4 MILLION VIEWS – an hour later at 2:08 – it was 29 MILLION!

In his monologue – Tucker calls for honest debate on issues – as opposed to ‘talking points’ handed down from on high at 4 am.  Too long, media have been narrative engineers and the talking points have been more like communist diktats or edicts – with no dissent allowed. And any counter opinion has been either punished or censored – silenced.

One, that every “journalist” must write down their question(s) in advance and give them to the White House to be read over, with the “correct questions” then selected to be used.
Two, the “correct questions” answers are then coached to “President Biden” before the “press conference.”

Please

Or, the WH supplies the questions to MSM while prepping Potatus in advance

This is an interview (video below) that some people here might be interested in, conducted by one of the crypto analysts I watch, CTO Larsson, interviewing Gregor Gregersen, owner of Silver Bullion, a precious metals storage facility in Singapore.

CTO Larsson is a technology expert, from Sweden, whose career and specialty was in the cell phone industry. CTO is a Bitcoin proponent who is also interested in precious metals.

I like to learn from both the crypto analysts and the precious metals analysts, and it’s always curious to me how so many in either camp often have so much antagonism toward the other, when they have so much in common regarding the whole reason for being interested in hard assets and escaping the fiat currency system.

Basically, it seems that many people in the precious metals only camp have been in PMs for decades, and they’re not about to change for some fancy new kid in town.

On the other side, many of the crypto people see PMs as ‘old tech’ or ‘low tech’ (or no tech) and consider the Boomers and their shiny metal as antiquated. Although of course, some of the people who have the most Bitcoin are Boomers, like Michael Saylor, founder of Microstrategy (ticker: MSTR).

[edit: I just checked, Saylor was born in 1965, and apparently the Baby Boomer generation is from 1946 to 1964, so I guess he’s not a Boomer]

CTO being interested in both PMs and crypto is somewhat uncommon.

Gregor, who is German, started his precious metals storage business in Singapore after the 2008 financial crisis. He moved to Singapore and renounced his German citizenship. I first heard about Gregor and his company a few years ago and have seen several interviews before, but this one is recent, just posted yesterday.

Gregor explains some of the issues involved with counter-party risk, storage of precious metals in an overseas vault, a few PM storage issues that many people are not aware of, and how his company overcoming those issues.

It’s 46 minutes long, but should be intelligible at 1.25 speed. I listened to it at 1.5 speed without a problem, but I’m used to CTO’s Swedish accent, and I’ve heard Gregor before too, so maybe it’s a little easier for me.

Back of the envelope…so subject to correction.

All of the gold mined in history, it is claimed, would fit in a cube 65 feet on a side. Rounding up just a tiny bit to 20 meters, that’s 8000 cubic meters; at 19.3 metric tons per cubic meter–let’s round that to 20 also–we’re talking 160,000 metric tons. Or 160,000,000 kilos, or 160,000,000,000 grams. At 31.1035 grams per troy ounce, which I’ll round to 32 (which partially will undo my other roundings) there are 5 billion troy ounces of gold in the world. There are eight billion people on earth, so you have more than the per capita average if you have ONE troy ounce of gold (which in turn is a tiny bit more than you’d get in one of the old $20 gold pieces. So get one of those (find a beat up one at a coin shop with little premium over spot) or just one present day “gold eagle” in the one ounce size, and you’re automatically in the top half of the world’s population.

Well, I have more than my share.

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.

Good article. Points out that Britain has already enshrined Net Zero into law thus cementing themselves into a down ward spiral that not only includes cars, airports, and half the beef, but will have to include population.

…Morton continued. “One of the translations of net-zero by 2050 is: I support mass extinction.” …

This reinforces the point that Build Back Better is for them not us.

Breaks out the vid.

Looks like total control over people’s lifestyle choices as well as manufacturing. There’s a term for that…

Under “Flying, 2030-2049,” it says “all remaining airports close.” Then beyond 2050, there will be electric planes with synthetic fuel. What could go wrong?

Which is absurd, because even if planes like that are feasible, they need airports.

I just read: The Significance of White Squall

….Before Trump and Q arrived, there was already a “truth movement”, but the movement has been plagued by competing factions and egos (which may largely be the result of infiltration by agitators, but our points here stand nonetheless)….

Consider the fact that the cabal’s main weapon against the masses are narratives that divide people with the aim of rendering them incapable of working together. The only possible counter for this situation is for a group of independent researchers and citizen journalists to form a united opposition against these machinations of the cabal….

White Squall is not a movie about a lone hero, but rather about the formation of a heroic brotherhood. It shows us that we need all hands on deck in order to steer our “ship” in the midst of the present 5G war—the mission is not about any one of us individually, but about all of us working together to serve the truth and the mission to restore America to greatness.

….

As I have stated before I am suspicious of Patrick Gunnels.

If you are a follower of the MG show stop watching and unfollow! Jeff Pedoson is from a rich Liberal family with board members. They give to the LGBTQ+ movements across the board. They are 100% fake controlled opposition Unfollow RED SHOE BOY. Pedoson has been spotted at questionable events waring his red shoes!!!!!

He never posts any EVIDENCE. Also a nasty family does not automatically mean YOU ARE. I ‘divorced’ my brother and my father’s relatives he is aligned with over 4 decades ago. They do not even know I am married.

FWIW, I find that Badlands is a ‘Limited Hangout’ While the MG Show, while a bit annoying has great guests and lots of good info on a wide range of topics. Many of which Badlands does not cover.

The Status of our Nation: 4/19/2023
by Dobie Tejas

I think we deserve some answers from the White Hats directly for these questions:

1. If you are in Control, why haven’t you taken over the Mass Media?

2. If you are in Control, why hasn’t FAKE Joe Biden & Harris not been Removed?

3. If you are in Control, why does CONGRESS still act like they are legitmately in session?

How are they getting paid since Federal Reserve no longer prints money and US Inc is defunct?

4. If you are in Control, why haven’t you publically announced the end of US Inc. ?…

I answered:

“Sometimes you can’t TELL the public the truth.

YOU MUST SHOW THEM.

A deeply entrenched enemy who controls the vast majority of communications is only defeated by……….

Game theory.

Only when evil is forced into the light can we defeat it.

Only when they can no longer operate in the [shadows] can people see the truth for themselves.

Watched his documentaries? Have you seen the amazing patriot platform he’s created with his website for Children’s Health Defense?! Have you heard him educate on government false flags? Yes he used those words- event recently! Black hats don’t stand up against pharma. He risks his life every day telling the truth about government & corporate corruption here and abroad!

Well, look at Dylan Mulvaney’s wrists and forearms. Look at the knuckles on the fingers. MALE. IMO, what’s going on with this person is a mixture of cleverly taking advantage of the current (debased) social mores, plus perhaps some deep-seated “personal issues” on his part.

Aubergine

If you look at Mulvaney’s past history (his Price Is Right and Ellen Degenerate appearances), alongside his current antics, then look up Histrionic Personality Disorder, you will find his “personal issues.”

I can no longer find the citation — I think it was a video — However Saul Alinsky and his buddies combed cemeteries looking for babies or young children who had died. They then applied for birth certificates in the names of those dead American children and gave those certificates to KGB spies.

There was even a small back page article in the Wall Street Journal in the spring of 1994 mentioning that the KGB not only FUNDED US NGOs they RAN those NGOs. I did not cut it out because I thought it would be front page news — Silly me.

By 1994 I believe we were well into the age of Nancy Kerrigan’s knee and O Jay’s melting ice cream phenomena which made keeping up with Russian Spy Craft and American Treachery a near impossibility as the Clinton Age had begun. We’d never again be the same.

This article is GREAT! This is my favorite book of Ayn Rand’s, and one of my favorite books of all time. And she DID predict the Dylan Mulvaney phenomenon and how it happens. Amazing. The “how” is in the article, and it is spot-on, in my opinion. And scary.

“But the shocker is realizing that her most specific, dead-on prediction, the one we never saw coming, was in The Fountainhead, and it is all around us today.

A few years ago, a confused teenaged actor, much like tens of thousands of other teenaged actors, was hoping for a career in the theatre, and meeting with the minor success so common in youth: a role in a local professional play, perhaps even a part in the chorus line of a musical’s touring company. Then in 2021, following the strange year known as “the pandemic,” this young person decided to become “trans,” and to report on his “transition” on the Chinese online platform TikTok.

Soon, Dylan Mulvaney was being represented by Creative Artists Agency – not for acting, dancing, or singing ability but for “being” a trans activist and online influencer. Soon, as he began wearing the hair, makeup, and wardrobe of a woman, he was getting promoted by the Trevor Project.”

US to host largest-ever Satanic gathering

The Salem-based Satanic Temple has announced its 2023 convention in nearby Boston

The Satanic Temple group has announced on social media that SatanCon 2023 will take place at the end of April in Boston, Massachusetts. Dubbed the “largest Satanic gathering in history,” this year’s convention will celebrate the Temple’s tenth anniversary.

Those who show up to the ‘Hexennacht in Boston’ on April 28, will have to wear “an N-95, KN-95, or disposable surgical mask,” according to the convention website. Other details, such as the exact venue in the “historic downtown,” the schedule of events, or names of speakers, have yet to be provided.

After holding the first-ever SatanCon last year in Arizona, The Satanic Temple (TST) is moving the event closer to its international headquarters in nearby Salem, known for its “witch trials” in the late 1600s. The Temple claims it has around 2,500 members in the Boston area.

Years ago, in the ’80’s, I was on a break from grad school & was visiting an old roommate in the Boston area. We took the train then a subway into the heart of the city so she could go to work one day & I could explore solo. In some public square there was a man preaching the gospel. I went over to speak with him, to encourage him, & ended up praying for him. There was a presumed witch, female in long black dress with a whitened face, who was circling us & hissing & seeming to cast curses our way as we prayed. It was incredibly creepy but also showed that her “evil” didn’t touch or really phase either of us. That was a very interesting & unique experience for me.

We had to pass through Salem on our journeys & they had cute little cartoon witches on brooms on the sides of the police cars back then. All fun & games & all 🙁

Feb 16, 2023: Russian Politician: United States Won’t ‘Come to Its Senses’ Until It ‘Gets Hit with a Nuke’

 ..Russian parliament member has escalated his bombast about nuking Western nations, as Russia now mobilizes warships in the Baltic Sea, according to Norwegian intelligence reports.

Andrey Gurulyov, a State Duma member and former military commander, recently gave a warning to the United States during a broadcast on the Kremlin-controlled Russia-1 network.

In a panel moderated by host Vladimir Solovyov, Gurulyov said that Americans “won’t come to their senses” until they “get hit with a nuke on their skull.”

The Russian ultra-nationalist also claimed that a nuclear strike was the only path forward to ensure lasting peace.

“There is no other way to talk to these fools,” Gurulyov said.

“Today, considering our strategic initiative—and right now we have it for sure—along with our current successes, I very much want for us to envision the future,” Gurulyov added. “We should make plans beyond the horizon so that we know what happens in one year, three years, five years, and 10 years and harshly move toward it in this paradigm.”….

During a September appearance on Russia-1, Gurulyov said that Putin’s armed forces could turn the United Kingdom into a “Martian desert” with nuclear strikes.

The Duma member went on to argue that a nuclear strike on Germany or the U.K. was not out of the question….

Fed Chair Powell Gets Pranked by Fake Zelensky, Makes Shocking Admissions (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila

Fed Chair Jerome Powell was pranked by two Russians pretending to be Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The notorious pranksters, Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexei Stolyarov, who go by “Vovan” and “Lexus,” got Jerome Powell to make a series of shocking admissions during the call.

Powell joked about having a printing press in the basement and claimed the Fed will hike rates two more times.

“The market is already pricing in two more quarter percentage point rate hikes. We’ll look around after we make those two and we’ll say should we do any more, and then the question will be how long do we keep rates at this level – and I think we’ll keep them there for quite some time,” Jerome Powell said during the call which reportedly took place in January.

As ZeroHedge noted, Powell didn’t even speak this candidly during a recent Congressional testimony.

Powell also said a recession is likely.

YouTuber Guilty For Selling ‘Metal Cards’ That DoJ Says Are “Machine Gun Conversion Devices” 
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/youtuber-guilty-selling-metal-cards-doj-says-are-machine-guns

A Wisconsin gun dealer whose YouTube channel has 180,000 subscribers was convicted of “conspiring to transfer unregistered machine gun conversion devices” that were nothing more than metal bottle openers etched with patterns called “lightning links” that, when milled, can convert a semiautomatic AR-15 rifle into an automatic machine gun. 

Gun dealer Matthew Hoover, who operated the CRS Firearms channel, was found “guilty of conspiring to transfer unregistered machine gun conversion devices that they referred to as “Auto Key Cards,”” the Department of Justice wrote in a press release. He was convicted of four counts of transferring unregistered machine gun conversion devices and faces 45 years in jail. 

Also facing severe jail time is Kristopher Justinboyer Ervin. The DoJ said he was convicted “of seven counts of transferring unregistered machine gun conversion devices, three counts of possessing unregistered machine gun conversion devices, and one count of structuring cash transactions to avoid currency transaction reporting requirements.”

Ervin faces a maximum penalty of 110 years in federal prison. Sentencing for the two is scheduled for July 31. 

Hoover and Ervin sold lightning links, etched into metal cards, which he referred to as “Auto Key Cards,” from around $40 for one version to more than $180. Hoover touted the cards on his YouTube channel.

In one video, he said: 

Auto Key Cards “are awesome because they’re stupid cheap.

 “You could drop it in your rifle or, you know, if you’re actually gonna do this legally, this is just a bottle opener. 

“What this is, is a novelty.

“So if someone sees it, they’re like, ‘hey, what is this?’ You explain to them that because laws are so ridiculous and so out of control, if I were to cut on these lines, I would become a felon. How ridiculous is that? It’s just a conversation starter.”

The DoJ said it took ATF agents about “40 minutes” to remove the pieces from the metal card via a Dremel rotary tool. 

Last Thursday, defense attorneys for the men argued the firearms law doesn’t cover their clients because it doesn’t restrict items that could ‘potentially’ be made into conversion devices. 

“As long as you do not cut it out … you have not broken the law,” Ervin’s lawyer, Alex King, told juries. 

Executive Assistant U.S. Attorney Laura Cofer Taylor told jurors before they began deliberating:

“Where is the line? That’s really a question you all will have to face.” 

Meanwhile, firearm expert Brandon Herrera made the point, “If selling a template is treated like selling a machine gun itself — then how is distributing a 3D printing file any different issue?” 

There is a 12+-minute video at the link.

I belong to a club that makes functional miniature internal combustion engines out of billet (blocks of metal). This is far more complicated than making a firearm.

BATFE’s position is that machine tools and blocks of metal are illegal if they can be used to make firearms. It’s going to be difficult to have a manufacturing renaissance if basic tools and materials are illegal.

The “right to repair” fight heats up
https://hotair.com/jazz-shaw/2023/04/26/the-right-to-repair-fight-heats-up-n546533

[Colorado] Governor Jared Polis is expected to sign a bill into law being described as a “right to repair” bill. The measure would force manufacturers to provide customers manuals, parts, and specialized tools allowing those who wish to do so the ability to repair the equipment they purchase. It’s being advertised as a bill primarily intended to help farmers, but it could really be of benefit to almost any consumer. But it’s true that it is of particular interest to people working in agriculture.

I hadn’t realized this was needed.

pat frederick

my son-in-law is a farmer. He buys john deere equipment–lots of it. If it breaks down, he has to have it repaired at an authorized dealer or it voids the warranty.
he’s a farmer–he knows how to fix stuff, but he’s not allowed to. like everything lately, it’s a racket.

kalbokalbs

Read somewhere, Tesla is the same way.

Tesla does everything, OR The Tesla Warranty Is Voided.

I didn’t know it had come to this except with computerized cars. In my experience, people had the skills and the ablility to repair their own devices. It’s another battlefront.

pat frederick

luckily, he has strong support within his framework of friends–fellow farmers. if someone needs to plant or bring in a field and the equipment breaks, the others will work that field or allow their equipment to be used.
this next generation of farmers gives me hope!

That’s encouraging!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Beware of the law of unintended consequences.

Ignorant asshats “fixing” their stuff, who actually break it and demand warranty covereage to fix their damage.

cthulhu

One of the slogans of the Maker movement is “Void Your Warranty”.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Sure.

This looks like a law to make it illegal to void someone’s warranty just because they “repair” the item themselves. That sounds like a great idea…until you think about it, and think about all the times some guy ruined something trying to fix it. (Never mind the fact that a business should be allowed to set such terms as long as it’s before the sale.)

Gail Combs

Dealers are REAL GOOD at getting out of that problem. 13 times in to the dealer to fix a problem on my new car…. Mom and I ended up fixing it instead.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

The context here is a law forbidding sellers from voiding a warranty because someone did their own work at one time. I worry that they will be forbidden to void warranties even if someone who doesn’t know what he’s doing fubars things worse than they were before he tried to “fix” it.

Your dealer was technically on the hook to fix the problem; the fact that he couldn’t do it right the 13th time and you gave up on him really doesn’t have any bearing on this issue. (But it does mean I won’t want to do business with him.)

Gail Combs

Oh, I did not give up. I shut his darn show room down. Amazing how a little woman with a LOUD VOICE complaining about almost being killed can convince customers to go elsewhere.

He still didn’t fix it but I sure made him scramble!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

He was probably incompetent–literally unable to do it. If it were laziness he’d have eventually given in especially at that pain level.

Gail Combs

It was a hole in the float in the carburetor.

The last time I had it towed to the dealer, I had a fountain of gas spraying 4 inches above the engine. It was a hot summer day and it had stalled under a traffic light. I popped the hood took one look and ran as fast as I could away from that car.

I was afraid it was going to blow.

The dealer was not small time and had several mechanics BTW. Unfortunately, being a woman they did not listen to what I told them about what happened.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yeah that should have been a bigass fire.

Gail Combs

That very much occurred to me when I hear the gas hissing as it hit the hot engine. I was a full block away when I stopped running and went to find a phone. (1976)

That BTW was what I was screaming about in the show room.  😜  Believe me I was PISSED by that point.

Newly leaked security camera footage shows Steven Crowder treating his then eight-month pregnant wife like a slave, ordering her around and verbally abusing her.

She was concerned about handling the dog’s medication because of fears it was toxic to pregnant women, so instead of doing himself he ordered her to put on some gloves and do it anyway.

His ex-wife’s family released a statement totally trashing him, saying he wasn’t even present for the birth of their kids and that he’s spreading lies about why she left him. He says he “picked the wrong woman.”

The Karma Police are coming for Crowder. He secretly recorded a conversation with his friends at the Daily Wire to stab them in the back to galvanize (dupe) his fans to pay for Mug Club memberships after his Blaze contract expired, and now his.

His former sidekick Dave Landau also just did an interview saying he’s a total control freak and egomaniac and couldn’t work with him anymore.

On April 27, 1773, the House of Commons passed the Tea Act, an act which would lead to the Boston Tea Party and plunge Great Britain and her American colonies into war. The colonists in America had complained about taxes before. They did not mind paying taxes. Rather, their disagreement was with who had the authority to tax them. Since they had no representatives in Parliament, they believed it was unjust for Parliament to tax them. Instead, the proper bodies to tax them should be their own elected assemblies.

1765 – The Stamp Act was passed and eventually repealed due to the uproar.
1766 – The Declaratory Act reaffirmed Parliament’s right to tax the colonies.
1767 – The Townshend Acts taxed paper, lead, glass painters’ colors, and tea. Protests and boycotts caused its repeal in 1770, except for the tax on tea. Colonists continued to boycott tea, and because multiple points of taxation raised the price of British East India Company tea in the colonies, people were smuggling in Dutch tea.
April 27, 1773 – The Tea Act did away with some of the taxes and allowed the British tea’s price to be reduced.

If the colonists bought the lower priced tea, they would also be tacitly agreeing to the notion that Parliament did indeed have the right to tax them.

The colonists, however, no matter how small the tax, had no intention of paying unjust taxes to Britain. They recognized the scheme immediately as an attempt to bribe them into giving Parliament authority to tax them in exchange for cheap goods. The colonists responded by forbidding tea ships from entering their harbors, culminating with the Boston Tea Party, during which 42 tons of tea were dumped into Boston Harbor in protest.

Britain responded in force by passing the Coercive Acts, which closed Boston Harbor and shut down the Massachusetts government, until the tea was paid for. Known as the Intolerable Acts in the colonies, these Acts led directly to the formation of the First Continental Congress to plan a joint colonial response. The American Revolution broke out in full fury shortly afterwards.

FAUCI THIS MORNING: “There was a personification of me as a person who essentially closed everything down…”

FAUCI IN OCTOBER 2020: “I recommended to the president that we shut the country down.”

It’s interesting and concerning that people had to be out of the danger/fear zone in order to start seeing some truths that we have known from the beginning. People who are afraid for themselves and their loved ones can be coerced into doing all kinds of things. Fauci is having to backtrack and defend himself now for things that he never should have gotten away with in the first place.

The vid was talking about pumping water. I do know that Maurice Strong’s Ranch BACA in CO is sitting on a very large aquifer and he had been planing on selling water until the EnviroNazis went after him.

From that info, it seems like it is ‘fossil water’ and not necessarily replenished. I do not know if that applies to AZ too.

….a lot of conservatives have been annoyed with Fox for quite a while – these cons think Fox is soft.

But that misunderstands what Fox is, or at least what it strives to be. Fox, for its part, has to both be the network that welcomes the 50% of Americans the regime media rejects and also maintain old school journalistic standards. The problem is that the Fox audience has little patience for old school journalistic standards in an age where the rest of the media slanders it as a bunch of racist, sexist monsters who think that only women can get pregnant. The audience wants a cheerleader network, and not just in the primetime opinion shows, and that creates….

Widespread Power Outage In Israel After Suspected Cyber Attack
A massive power outage that occurred on Thursday afternoon affected cities all throughout Israel and is believed to likely be the result of a cyberattack.

An secret cyber group known as “Anonymous Sudan” claimed responsibility, bragging on its Telegram channel about the pre-planned cyber threats.

“The electric strike was just for fun. We’ll show you more,” they posted.

Later, the pernicious group threatened to launch even more attacks.

“Israel, we are still playing with you … Soon you will be without the internet. We are working to down the internet in Israel like electricity.”

However, according to The Israel Electric Company (IEC), the power failure was due to a problem with a production unit.

“Due to a glitch in one of the Haifa power plants, power outages are being felt in a number of areas around the country … Regular power supply was renewed to a number of areas and will be fully renewed in the next few minutes.”

Wyoming, Other Western States, Obliterate Snowpack Records

The amount of snow that stayed on the ground in Wyoming this year is unprecedented, according to satellite imagery that tracks snowpack….

He explained that until now, in 23 years of record keeping, the most land in the U.S. ever covered by snowpack on the last day of March was in 2019, when it was determined that more than 398,000 square miles of land in the Western states were covered by either ice or snow.

But this year, satellite imagery shows more than 444,000 square miles of snow and ice cover in the same region….

It is not COLD that causes glaciation, it is massive snowfall followed by mild summers where all the snow does not melt.

Over 10,000 FBI Agents Can Access Data From Secretive Surveillance Program: Inspectors GeneralBy Joseph Lord

There’s a couple vids out there on this, one with Jim Jorden and another with Matt Gatez both talking to the small panel with Michael Horowitz.

It’s not just FBI but govt officials and contractors that have this access. Also 3.3 million warrantless searches have been conducted with a fail rate of over a million. No description of what “fail rate” means but very disconcerting to know they have this unchecked power to dig into anyone they wish.

Gail Combs

 “fail rate”  = fishing expedition failed to find anything they could nail someone with?

And if it started out as nefarious search to begin with done by nefarious persons a failed search could run the full course of being advantageous to the searcher and still ruinous to the person searched or one of their associates. Just because no legal action resulted from the search does not mean actions were not taken. Think someone like Hillary commanding the search be done by one of her surrogates or those surrogates just poking around to see what they can dredge up to get an edge be it business or black mail.

Breitbart has a long article about what has been going on at Fox.
Exclusive — Disarray Consumes Fox News as Murdochs Attempt to Reassert Control with Carlson, Bongino Ousters

Fox News is trying to sideline former Tucker Carlson Tonight host Tucker Carlson through the 2024 election, multiple sources familiar with the matter told Breitbart News.

Carlson’s current contract runs through December 2024, and as of now three sources familiar with the matter told Breitbart News that executives at the network are trying to keep Carlson on contract and not release him until after the 2024 election. The shocking decision to cancel Carlson’s top-rated weeknight program came just days after the network shut down its top-rated weekend program with host Dan Bongino. What follows here is an insider account from people actually in the know after Breitbart News spent the past several days interviewing key players in the personnel matters at Fox News, asking what really happened.

Two things are clear from speaking to people who actually know what’s happening on the inside: First, the official narrative from the network is untrue. Second, and perhaps more importantly, many of the leaks and speculation that have poured out in the past couple days since the bombshell news of Carlson’s show getting canceled was announced are also simply untrue.

…both Carlson and Bongino are technically still under contract by the network. Bongino’s contract runs through the end of April and Carlson’s through the 2024 general election. Both are, sources say, trying to negotiate exit packages—and even after they formally have those agreements in place, there will be non-disparagement clauses that prevent them from ever speaking the truth about this.

They [the Murdochs] wiped out their biggest shows both on weekends and on weekdays to show the rest of the staff who’s the real boss, but in effect insiders say they have created a crisis that is quickly burgeoning out of control. 

…“As of right now, the plan remains the same: pay out Carlson’s contract and keep him on the sidelines through the 2024 elections,” one source close to Fox News senior executives told Breitbart News. “They knew they would take a beating for this, but everyone — and I mean everyone — is pretty rattled. They weren’t expecting the blowback to be this bad. Hate to say it, but it’s clear that Rupert has lost a step or two.”

para59r

Not sure how that works with Bongino. His Podcast is unchanged and he talks about what he wants which is anti vax, anti CV, anti Russian Hoax, against Ukraine, anti pharma, pro Trump etc… . If they have any kind of lock on him it is so narrow as to be imperceptible and strictly limited to just the particulars of his contract and relationship with himself and Fox and yes, he pretty much doesn’t talk about that, but not sure how that would matter with all he can talk about.

TheseTruths

I was just continuing to read what the article says about him. I always had the impression that his podcast was completely separate from Fox.

While Bongino has been classy in his public comments about everything—his Rumble video announcing the end of his time at Fox News got well over a million views—the truth of the matter is far more complicated and as one person said “bizarre.”

A source intricately familiar with Bongino’s contract negotiations told Breitbart News that for months Fox News tried to get him to re-up his current deal. Negotiations were failing for a long time because Bongino did not like doing the show on Saturdays, and did not like working six days a week. While Bongino had his battles with Fox News management over a number of things—them editing his interview with Trump, for instance, was a sore spot—he got along well with everyone there and just was not sure he wanted to take Fox News up on the offer to renew the show due to the scheduling problems.

Negotiations were ongoing for a while, and Fox News were the ones pursuing Bongino, this source said: “There was a lot of back and forth and there was never a hint they didn’t want to renew the show, ever.”

“As a matter of fact, they made multiple repeated offers to renew the show—it was never in question,” the source added.

So, what’s mind-boggling to network insiders is that Bongino appeared to come to an agreement weeks ago on a renewal. “There’s not two versions of this—this is the only version,” the source with intricate knowledge of Bongino’s discussions with Fox News added. “This is what happened.”

“He honestly did it because he just really felt bad,” this source said. “He’s been there for years and he’s got friends there.”

Then Fox News settled with Dominion—and promptly, management at the network called Bongino saying they “changed their minds—they’re not interested.”

Bongino went on his own show on Rumble the next day and announced his departure from Fox—Fox had wanted him to go on air and do one last show, which he did not want to do and said he would just announce it on his show. “Fox was a little worried he was going to flame them,” this source said, but Bongino did not—and instead aired a very classy announcement telling his fans his show was ending and publicly downplaying any disagreements with the network.

TheseTruths

Every network source that Breitbart News spoke to made clear they do not think this is an effort by Fox News management or the Murdoch family to try to stop Trump in the 2024 GOP primary. 

To which I say, baloney.

“It’s not about religion. It’s not about the MAGA stuff,” that source added. “It’s that the two of them did not listen to anybody. They did their own thing and their own shit, and Fox has a brand. The brand is ‘You will rep our company, shut the fuck up, and do what we tell you.’ That’s why they love Kilmeade and these people because that’s what they do.”

…“The change in the programming will be that if there’s some sort of controversial bill moving on Capitol Hill, Tucker would often use his show to try to kill it. That sort of stuff won’t be going on anymore. I just think the network and the programming will be dumber, rah rah Republicans. Milquetoast content. It’s a reversion to what Fox was. The Tucker era at Fox was a deviation from the norm at Fox.”

Which — hello! — is anti-Trump and anti-MAGA.

So he breaks the contract which forfeits his remaining pay. There might be some clause about walking out on the contract but he has a following which Fox is damaging whether intentional or not. That following is an intangible asset known as goodwill.

Its dollar value can be figured out and I doubt that Fox wants to know how high it is.

I had wondered if breaking the contract was a viable option.

Since they are talking budget…

I looked into not passing a budget a decade ago (Obama). It only shuts down parts of the government.

nonessential bureaucrats get their pay stopped.

Social Security is not an “appropriation” but a DEBT that must be paid especially since laws have ALREADY been passed governing Social Security. The only way to STOP the Social Security pay checks is to declare the government employees cutting the checks “non-emergency personnel”

These numbers have gone up but it gives a rough picture.
* The federal government receives approximately $200 billion in revenues each month.

* Interest on the national debt in August will be approximately $29 billion.
* Social Security will cost about $49. 2 billion.
* Medicare and Medicaid will cost about $50 billion.
* Active duty military pay will cost about $2.9 billion.
* Veterans affairs programs will cost about $2.9 billion.”

With regard to Social Security, it is a mandatory, direct spending program not dependent on annual appropriation bills.

Social Security and Medicare expenditures are funded by permanent appropriations and so are considered mandatory spending according to the 1997 Budget Enforcement Act (BEA). Social Security and Medicare are sometimes called “entitlements,” because people meeting relevant eligibility requirements are legally entitled to benefits, although most pay taxes into these programs throughout their working lives….

Direct spending, also known as mandatory spending, refers to spending enacted by law, but not dependent on an annual or periodic appropriation bill. Most mandatory spending consists of entitlement programs such as Social Security benefits, Medicare, and Medicaid. These programs are called “entitlements” because individuals satisfying given eligibility requirements set by past legislation are entitled to Federal government benefits or services. Many other expenses, such as salaries of Federal judges, are mandatory, but account for a relatively small share of federal spending.

Mandatory Spending

Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid expenditures are funded by more permanent congressional appropriations and so are considered mandatory spending. Social Security and Medicare are sometimes called “entitlements,” because people meeting eligibility requirements are legally entitled to benefits, although most pay taxes into these programs throughout their working lives. Some programs, such as Food Stamps, are appropriated entitlements. Some mandatory spending, such as Congressional salaries, is not part of any entitlement program. Mandatory spending accounts for more than half of total federal outlays.

Medicare

Medicare was established in 1965. Spending for Medicare during 2016 was $692 billion. In 2013, the program covered an estimated 52.3 million people. Medicare consists of four distinct parts which are funded differently: Hospital Insurance, mainly funded by a dedicated payroll tax of 2.9% of earnings, shared equally between employers and workers; Supplementary Medical Insurance, funded through beneficiary premiums (set at 25% of estimated program costs for the aged) and general revenues (the remaining amount, approximately 75%); Medicare Advantage, a private plan option for beneficiaries, funded through the Hospital Insurance and Supplementary Medical Insurance trust funds; and the Part D prescription drug benefits, for which funding is included in the Supplementary Medical Insurance trust fund and is financed through beneficiary premiums (about 25%) and general revenues (about 75%). Spending on Medicare and Medicaid is projected to grow dramatically in the coming decades. The number of persons enrolled in Medicare is expected to increase from 47 million in 2010 to 80 million by 2030. While the same demographic trends that affect Social Security also affect Medicare, rapidly rising medical prices appear to be a more important cause of projected spending increases

Social Security

Social Security is a social insurance program officially called “Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance” (OASDI), in reference to its three components. It is primarily funded through a dedicated payroll tax of 12.4%. During 2010, an estimated 157 million people paid into the program and 54 million received benefits.

Since the Greenspan Commission in the early 1980s, Social Security has cumulatively collected far more in payroll taxes dedicated to the program than it has paid out to recipients—nearly $2.6 trillion in 2010. This annual surplus is credited to Social Security trust funds that hold special non-marketable Treasury securities. This surplus amount is commonly referred to as the “Social Security Trust Fund.” The proceeds are paid into the U.S. Treasury where they may be used for other government purposes. Social Security spending will increase sharply over the next decades, largely due to the retirement of the baby boom generation. The number of program recipients is expected to increase from 44 million in 2010 to 73 million in 2030.

Because of the mandatory nature of the program and large accumulated surplus in the Social Security Trust Fund, the Social Security system has the legal authority to compel the government to borrow to pay all promised benefits through 2036, when the Trust Fund is expected to be exhausted. Thereafter, the program under current law will pay approximately 75–78 percent of promised benefits for the remainder of the century.

I just wanted to make sure people were aware of these details.

Obama used threats against SS which is why I went looking.

hussein will threaten SS again, through his mouthpiece, BiteMe.
