For those out there who missed the House Committee hearing on the weaponization of the FBI, wow, there was a lot said.
The full event was well over three hours, so here are some highlights…and lowlights.

And now for the business portion of the post borrowed from Tuesday:
Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion. In that spirit, though, threats of violence real or hypothetical are out of bounds.
Fellow tree dweller the late Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
And Auntie DePat’s requests:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

PSALMS 47:2-7
1Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with loud songs of joy! 2For the LORD, the Most High, is terrible, a great king over all the earth. 3He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet. 4He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loves. [Selah] 5God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet. 6Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
JOHN 16:20-23
20Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy. 21When a woman is in travail she has sorrow, because her hour has come; but when she is delivered of the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child is born into the world. 22So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. 23In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father, he will give it to you in my name.
SATIRE!
Have a good weekend!
That tweet about Ted Cruz questioning Bud Light’s relationship with Dylan Mulvaney is interesting. There is a rule that beer companies aren’t supposed to market to kids, and yet Mulvaney is all about reaching out to kids. Brilliant observation by Cruz.
They;re so blatant, so open now, that it’s a target-rich environment!!!
Well there’s a certain percentage of the adult population that still act like kids and the leftist who never grow up. So there is that.
“Mulvaney is all about reaching out to kids”
The INTENT of the Mulvaney push, according to the VP, was to reach into younger demographics.
Gen Z is 24 years old today – on the high end . . .
Hilarious!!! Sad, but hilarious!
🔥Justice Gorsuch on COVID-19 and Emergency Government
https://reason.com/volokh/2023/05/18/justice-gorsuch-on-covid-19-and-emergency-government/
More at the link.
Gorsuch: “We do not need to confront a bayonet, we need only a nudge, before we willingly abandon the nicety of requiring laws to be adopted by our legislative representatives and accept rule by decree.”
A) not me
B) where have you been the last 3-1/2 years, Gorsuch?
.
Gorsuch: “Along the way, we will accede to the loss of many cherished civil liberties—the right to worship freely, to debate public policy without censorship, to gather with friends and family, or simply to leave our homes.”
A) not me
B) where have you been the last 3-1/2 years, Gorsuch?
.
Gorsuch: “We may even cheer on those who ask us to disregard our normal lawmaking processes and forfeit our personal freedoms.”
A) not me
B) where have you been the last 3-1/2 years, Gorsuch?
I don’t think he knows you. Just sayin’. 😅
He wrote this piece as part of a decision or commentary on another current case that is related to the subject matter.
Sure, obviously he doesn’t, but he is speaking as though he speaks for everyone, when the truth is, he only speaks for himself.
He only needed a nudge, before he willingly abandoned the nicety of requiring laws to be adopted by our legislative representatives, and he accepted rule by decree.
And he is a (not)Supreme Court judge. If anyone ought to know better, it’s him.
Same applies to all of his other statements.
LOTS of the American People didn’t go along with ANY of it.
But he did.
When he talks about it though, he uses ‘we’, as if we are all guilty, like he.
1000000% agree. Tonto needs to speak up for himself, not me and other patriots.
Exactly, isn’t he the one who’s supposed to uphold the rule of law?
AMEN, brother! That’s called PROJECTION.
I guess he doesn’t know me, either!
And this one:
Along the way, it seems federal officials may have pressured social-media companies to suppress information about pandemic policies with which they disagreed.
No they DID PRESSURE social media and or CONTROLLED IT .
There fixed it for you Sir.
Hopium I know, but chance may be he’s being noncommittal there in case anything concerning that comes up before the SC.
^^^^This. The justices have to be very careful about what they say, when they say it, and how they say it. I doubt Gorsuch knew what a hornets’ nest he would be stirring up here. 😅 I was glad to see that a justice is on the same page as we have been.
Excellent point.
Initially, PRESSURE to CONTROL.
Then, BOUGHT social media AND Pravda News with Covidiot Slush funds.
Exactly. Rinse, repeat your response to all of it.
He speaks for the other idgits that thought and did what he thought and did while it was going on.
Oh, do you have standing to bring that case?
Backbone, find one, like Justice Thomas, Gorsuch. Apply it to the rest of your decisions.
Here’s the thing, though. How can Supreme Court justices comment on ephemeral issues when there is the potential that such cases would come before them?
Our legal system takes time. That was actually used to advantage here in that the people got to experience just what lockdowns were like and that if it sounds good, it probably isn’t.
Y U P.
This is like one of those women’s magazine questionnaires that tell you your personality type. Mostly A’s, you’re a Patriot. Mostly B’s, you’re a moron.
Mostly C’s, you end up on a can of Bud Lite 😀
LOL!
That IS funny. 
Awesome – but yeah, Scott’s point, too.
All of these elitist snobs project their bullshit cowardice and pussy-fication on the rest of us.
They have to believe the “peasants” are lesser, just like they are in their heart of hearts.
pussy-fiction too! 😂
Yeah.
Goodness, gracious, look at the time!!!
Thank you, DePat, for remembering to put up posts even while much of your audience is zoned out.
Thank you for making them posts of quality with inspiration, information, and amusement.
And thank you for being here for us, even when posts are done.
Amen!
You’re welcome.
I will say one thing after perusing OT. With yesterday’s news…you can tell SD doesn’t have a journalism degree. What he reports, yes, is interesting, but ignoring the FBI story?
I would have flunked an editorial decision making class. I never really thought I would use that aspect of my matriculation, but there it is.
Maybe has something to do with that subpoena he received?
I doubt it. Just copying and pasting video and tweets of Congressional hearings shouldn’t be an issue.
Oh but it is. The Twitter Files are full of people who suffered negative effects due to drawing attention to such things.
Agree AND Operative word, shouldn’t.
Upside down justice these days.
Good online friends —
Please spare a prayer or good thought for Marica’s brother Dave. He has received the Last Rites. Her blog post today is her Farewell to him.
Thank you.
My heart goes out to Dave, Marica, and their family. 🙏
Will do. Prayers for Dave, Marica, and all their friends and family. 🙏
Amen!
I wonder if he’s hearing some things.
Me too. I don’t know why he would say that.
If he doesn’t have anything else, Bongino has sources.

Wonderful picture!!!
Note that my comment is basically “affirming” (yeah, that’s intended) what Aubergine has been saying about “old gods coming back”. I believe it’s the same “demon” (quotes for unbelievers, take them off if you believe).
Well, yes, demons.
But there is an argument to be made that all “mental illness” is caused by demons. And I say that with a psych degree and years of therapy in my arsenal.
Who is to say that mental illness is an organic brain process, versus an inhabitation by an other-worldly being? Prove it. You can’t, no one can. It is a function of faith either way, in God or in what passes for a “science.”
The lines between physical, mental, emotional, AND spiritual cannot be accurately drawn rigidly, imo…
I would agree.
Some say that gender-affirming care is critical health care, when gender issues should be part of mental health care.
And good point about the parents. There is a lot of emotional and mental illness out there.
And, as usual, the DEMONRAT left twists the language via an oxymoron…
“gender-affirming” should be care to reinforce one’s confidence and acceptance of one’s genetic sex, not one’s imagined “orientation” or what-have-you.
(Times were, oxymorons went to Occidental College down in SoCal 🙂 )…..
You mean like good old Barry?
Lot of support for this as there should be. Evil Minions are being kept at bay.
This is classic Munchausen by proxy. Classic. It’s not political; this is mental illness, caused by decades of Facebook and other social media exposure. These people will do anything for their 15 minutes of “fame.”
Hilarious and BRUTAL!!!
You, too, DePat! Have a good weekend! 😎
My response should draw some groomer shills!
Disney pulled 1 billion BECAUSE OF A BUSINESS DOWNTURN — PERIOD.
Sniping at DeSanctimonious was just icing on the cake.
I agree. Patriots know who Disney is. For everybody else, are you going to spend your dollars on fantasy when the economy is melting down? Nope.
Send them to New York.
Then you’d have Groomer and Schumer…

Thanks! I’ll check it out today. Can’t now, but definitely later.
His idea is to go after State Athorneys General in RED STATES where Hunter has committed crimes (DRUGS & Prostitutes)
Problem is it DOES NOT deal with the CORE PROBLEM which is the Oligarchs controlling DC & corporations.
CRITICAL!!!
At 1:40:30 Mark Levin says:
There is a way for ONE member of the house to FORCE the cutting of a SPECIFIC ITEM if Kevin McCarthy OKs it!!!
I think this is something WE should be calling e-mailing and badgering Rep Matt Gaetz and Rep McCarthy about.
Remember you do not have to be of their state to donate DIRECTLY to them.

AMEN!!!
A couple of days ago, I found out that my aunt (also my godmother) died the week prior. She was 85.
I’m not really sure how to take it. I saw her a lot when I was a kid because she was my cousins’ mom, but after us cousins grew up and went our separate ways she was divorced by my uncle. She moved out to Palmdale — away from my Uncle, away from my family, and away from her family.
Her family was Baptist (don’t know which kind), and there’s a particular church where my dad designed one of the buildings and my eldest cousin got married. From my fuzzy memories, it doesn’t seem like it was a Faith often spoken — rather, quietly lived.
I wish I’d spent more time with her.
You have my sympathies and prayers. I hear you about the “not sure how to take it” part. Those can be kind of weird. But every death is affecting in some way we don’t expect, and some in many ways. As you say, you wish you had spent more time with her. That’s key to coming to grips with it, I’ll bet.
I’m sorry about your aunt, Coothie.
Gosh. Much of that is right out of my past. Ten ousins in Frisco. We (6) in Oakland then San Jose. Divorce(s), each of us growing up. Spreading our wings and moving on. <<< More ways than one. Some passing, over years, still seem odd, to deal with. Reconcile feelings.
Sorry for your loss.
so sorry for your loss!
find peace!
Sorry for your loss, Coothie. May you be comforted by The Healer and find peace over it all in the coming days.
I’m sorry to hear of this. I feel the same — I wish I had spent more time with family members who are gone. May you find Comfort and Peace.
I’m sorry for your loss. I think many of us have those lost connections from our childhood. I sure do.
I think there’s a lesson in your story for us all. Seize the day, because we don’t know how many more we will get.
AMEN! I have lost several of my good friends from my earlier caving days.
I am sorry for your loss.
We carrying those we love in our hearts throughout our life.
Peace
So sorry for your loss but glad for your fond memories. My godmother is only a couple of years younger than this, my mom’s age, though she’s been widowed from my godfather for nearly a decade now. She Still sends me a birthday AND Christmas card every year.
You’ll be reunited some day…in Paradise.
^^^ B R U T A L and Hilarious. ^^^
I dearly love Elon’s sense of humor. It is devastating.
This is both fun and cringe.
^^^ Well done. Almost feel like we saw a like confrontation, with Shitty, several months ago.
Shitty AND all the liars that targeted Trump should be confronted DAILY.
They won’t be able to walk down the street…
That is why they were in such a froth to pass the anti-Lynching law that they used Juicy Smollett to fake an attack by MAGA.
Hunters business partners were under investigation for Gerova and the tribal bond scam at the time that the FBI was investigating Hillary’s server and the DNC “hack”.
Devin Archer was indicted in May 2016.

Seven people were convicted. The Galanis’ were sentenced to more than 10 years each.
Mbloom, a self dealing partnership between the State of Hawaii and a venture capital fund seeded by Rosemont Seneca Technology Partners in 2014,( about the same time as the Metabiota investment and Burisma board appointments) collapsed shortly after Archer was indicted.
http://www.hawaiifreepress.com/Articles-Main/ID/26723/MBloom-Hawaii-Hi-Tech-Scam-Snares-Another-Biden-Insider
Hawaii, Don Graves? Where does that investigation lead?
The SDNY prosecuting Hunters partners with investigations that could lead to Obama, while Hillary is under investigation for her server and foundation?
Did they cut a deal among themselves and agree to focus their vicious efforts against the Trump campaign, rather than each other?
Hunters partners were prosecuted under a financial fraud investigative task force created by Obama. President Trump disbanded this task force and created his own in July 2018.
The Durham report documents evidence of, and confirms spying on the EOP by Rodney Joffe’s company during the transition. They lost access to the EOP servers after the inauguration. Durham doesn’t have an explanation for why Joffe was shut out of the servers.

Horrors!
Read somewhere yesterday, Marines ARE recruiting illegals. 🙃
That’s insane. Isn’t that also an accelerated pathway to citizenship? As well as gaining/enhancing the skills that could be used against us 😡
Yes. But, I dunno if country of origin changes the rules.
I would hope, this ONLY applies to legal residents.

shuttering stores in SF
COVID actually has little to do with it.
The problem is, Gruesome Newscum and the Kalifornistan DEMONRATS have made it so that perps can steal up to $999.99 -worth of merchandise and NOT BE PROSECUTED, indeed, not even be arrested nor stopped from leaving the store…
And that’s not even mentioning the massed gangs going in 20-30-100 at a time and basically picking a place clean…
Breaks my heart to see my home state turned into a HELLHOLE… 😡 💣 🕳 ☠
It’s literally legal & moral insanity! Why would anyone keep a business there in such a climate, it’s completely insanity & makes Zero business sense 🙁
Horrible Crime by jailbird hours after release
Punishment for rape used to be death, or, in some cases, clipping.
Boiling in oil probably would be a deterrent (I can see ganggreen pushing for a Vegan solution… OK, soybean oil laced with Carolina Reapers)…
The problem with imposing such a penalty for rape is that rapists would then murder the prime witness against them to save themselves from prosecution.
Which is why vigilantes do post-legal justice.

Hopefully Gail’s got her finger on this pulse
As I learned during the Farm Wars, IT DOES NOT MATTER you can have tens of thousands of public comments AGAINST National Animal ID. You can even have it as a major issue brought up to Obama before he was elected. (It was in the top 15 of Change dot org..)

Can’t Have the Sheeple KNOW they will be slaughtered…
These are important digs but so discouraging. We’re pretty much at “only a fool’s hope” as Gandalf said 🙁
Abolish BLM. Turn over BLM land to citizens.
I saw this and said, “does he mean Black Lives Matter or the Bureau of Land Management?”
Then I realized it doesn’t matter, both need abolition.
Yea. Comment followed the land BLM assholes, comment.
But did at posting time realize, both BLMs need to be abolished.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
BE MY VOICE
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.

The curriculum appears to be well rounded for a degree though some of the sub courses belonging to the core subjects they want you to take obviously have the woke slant. Many of the sub courses use woke terminology like “diversity” to describe what you are supposed to get out of the course. A conservative student who already has a decent education will thrive in this kind of environment as long as one can articulate and stand by their position.
The real challenge of an online course is the amount of work you have to put into one of these course. Example as part of your work assignment that you are required to turn in will likely be something like Read Chapter X & Y and do the odd questions at the end of the chapter. That may amount to 5 to 10 essay type questions per course, per week, which demonstrate a mastery of the subject material read to include any supplementary reading material. I imagine that might be fine if you just parrot the book near verbatim but good answers will be more than just that.
If one is a part time student, then it might be wise to not take more than two classes per semester until one can be sure they can handle the work load. Over all your forced to learn more in these online courses as opposed to in class courses where you can skate by with much less work.
Giving answers to a woke teacher is always a challenge and will require more work, but because one is more animated than other students one should do fine as long as logical arguments are being made.
I am concerned about the Obama Statement. “…It uses external assessments to evaluate student proficiency.” What the heck is that? You may want that defined first. It sounds like volunteer work for which an allegiance to woke may be required. One can do fine in all the core subject areas but end up with a lower GPA in the prerequisite courses (social science type classes).
First thought that comes to mind is Bohemian Grove and “The Cremation Of Care”…
Minerva, Diana, Ishtar, and all that lot…
The owl mascot doesn’t bother me, I actually have one of those plastic owls in the back seat of my 4Runner strapped in with the seat belt….which is a kinda long story.
WGU has been on my radar for a bit. I think it’s a very affordable alternative to brick and mortar, I think a person could avoid a lot of the useless junk involved in a typical four year university. I like that a student can begin and progress at the pace they set for themselves and is not restricted by someone else’s nonnegotiable calendar.

Yours Truly: Prof. Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi, whose work with Doctors 4 Covid Ethics and other groups has been getting the truth out about COVID-19 and the “vaccines” since early 2020, is going on trial in Germany on 23 May on a charge of “inciting the masses” and “trivialization of the Holocaust.” This is because Dr. Bhakdi compared the mass-forcing of COVID-19 “vaccination” to the Holocaust.
Dr. Bhakdi, if convicted, faces two years in prison and a fine.
IMO, ** someone ** made the decision that Dr. Bhakdi must be silenced.
From Dr. Bhakdi:
“Every…injected mRNA ‘vaccine’ will cause severe damage in our body and must be forbidden.” (Quotation from his presentation at the 2022 Better Way Conference.)
Amen … there is no ‘other’ holocaust doncha know …
Isn’t it trademarked?
Exactly. It’s so tiresome – and it just backfires.
The thing that gets me right now is the “trivialization” of (more like complete invisibility – as in they can “not see”) the 25 million Russians killed by the Nazi-controlled German war machine. So much so, that the Jazis are allied with Nazis, because THESE particular Nazis are “Jew-friendly” and have Russians as their “number one subhumans”.
To me this is just intolerable, and is destroying the credibility of Jewish opposition to Nazism. The hypocrisy just pours out. And part of that is that many people no longer give a damn about what’s happening to Israel right now.
“You only worried about yourselves? OK. Guess those are the new rules.”
It’s so self-defeating.
I look at numbers. 6 million? That’s roughly the number of people who have died SO FAR by the vaccines that Israel helped shill in a big way. And a lot of JEWS died in that process. Bakdhi did nothing wrong, IMO.
When 25 million have died, I’ll make sure to compare it to the BIGGER holocaust (no capitals – those are the rules) of dead Russians.
Amen on all points Wolfie … “they” have hijacked Judaism… and “they” make NO discrimination … “They” hate all – perhaps “themselves” (without the self-awareness to acknowledge it) …
If I label “them” Khazarians” people don’t know of whom I speak … and that’s part of “their” deceit…
I despise that our Gov’t is arming and supporting NAZIs … and moreover that average Americans don’t appear alarmed about it…
And in Israel, Orthodox Jews are refusing to fight, wanting peace with the Arabs, so Israelis are concerned there will not be enough male adults to serve in the military. At the moment the Times of Israel leads with a article and a photo of (oops, no longer ‘leading with’ still front page)
“Young Jewish men hold Israeli flags and flags of the racist, far-right Lehava organization at Damascus Gate in Jerusalem’s Old City, during Jerusalem Day celebrations, May 18, 2023. (Jamal Awad/Flash90)”
here’s link to article https://www.timesofisrael.com/triumphalism-and-ethno-nationalism-take-center-stage-at-jerusalem-day-events/
while Palestinians say they shouting “Death to Arabs”
And rumor has it C_A has for months been involved with ‘color revolution’ evidenced by continuing protests in the streets, weekend after weekend…
it’s ‘schizoid’ …. (on purpose, of course)
Sounds like they are using the Holocaust to head off the popular momentum for Covid Crimes. If they can successfully ignore the Covid Crimes by shouting “How Dare You” and not allow the Dr to mount a coherent defense then they’ll have blunted more talk of coming at them for Covid Crimes.
It’s my fervent belief that RF will hold tribunals … they didn’t take all that evidence of US biolabs in The Ukraine (so near to Russia many were) for naught … imo
“They” have lots of ‘cards’ — overused, expired … imo of course …
I continue to look forward to the tribunals.
Wherever the chips fall, truth must be revealed.
Merde-Kuh basically told the highest courts in Germany how they should act and which way they “should” decide. Seems there was a little breakfast meeting or something.
Dribs and drabs are now coming out in the alt media, along with all sorts of “heat” for Habeck and his warm-pump “friends” (aka BlackRock)… could get interesting, but not in the way the left wants.
Undoing Merde-Kuh’s damage, unfortunately, will take years. I hope and pray that Dr. Bhakdi doesn’t end up behind bars…

The whole ‘western’ world attack russia , and russia took the asymetric road strengthening their alliance with Iran including opening the weapon export to iran…
the heartburn and anger of the israeli govt and their shills in US are so thick one can cut it with dull knife..
on top of that the whole middle east ditched the fake arab & israel peace and everyone there know the beast is weak and wounded , they all took the correct way and get closer with russia and china and iran..
the beast (US empire) are angry and powerless because they are spread all around the globe .. their plan to weaknen russia prior to their attack on china failed , russia is not the weak part of the alliance and they underestimate it again like their ancestors..
with china and iran behind russia the west are so lost , figuratively and literaly..
MEANWHILE in tel aviv , plans are being reopened about the time to seek new host / protector to protect their nation just in case US collapse
Someone should tell Maria [normally a rather straight talker] that the US will never collapse. The govt may crumble but We the People have 2A.
We are the US.
