DANIEL 3:52-56

52“Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of our fathers, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever; And blessed is your holy and glorious name, praiseworthy and exalted above all for all ages. 53Blessed are you in the temple of your holy glory, praiseworthy and glorious above all forever. 54Blessed are you on the throne of your kingdom, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever. 55Blessed are you who look into the depths from your throne upon the cherubim, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever. 56Blessed are you in the firmament of heaven, praiseworthy and glorious forever.

MATTHEW 13:10-17

10Then the disciples came and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” 11And he answered them, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12For to him who has will more be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away. 13This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14With them indeed is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which says: `You shall indeed hear but never understand, and you shall indeed see but never perceive. 15For this people’s heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.’ 16But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 17Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

The Democrats’ Dilemma: How to Convince Joe Biden to Drop out of the Race
_____________

That’s very quaint, but they won’t convince him, don’t even need to.

It doesn’t work like that, not even on the Republi-Con side, but certainly not on the devilrat side.

If the criminals who pull the strings want Joe gone, they’ll just tell him he’s done, and off he goes.

And he’ll go gladly, because he knows if he doesn’t, he ends up at the bottom of a pond, or at Fort Marcy Park with a suicide note stuffed in his shirt and three to the back of the head.

pgroup2

Three to the back of the head? It used to be two.

Must be that damn inflation.

scott467

Well, the whole reason for making the murder look like a suicide isn’t to fool anybody, it just gives the crooked justice apparatus a plausible excuse to close the case without an investigation.

But you don’t want to do too good of a job, you don’t want it to really look like a suicide, because that defeats the real purpose.

The purpose is to warn everybody else that you’re next, if you cross the wrong people or don’t do what you’re told.

The problem is that people have become so stupid, they we’re starting to believe that a person could actually shoot themselves twice in the back of the head.

So TCTB had to up it to three.

That won’t last long though.

Soon it will take four shots to the back of the head before most of the public would realize it wasn’t really a suicide.

Pretty soon it will take so many shots you won’t be able to use a revolver anymore, and there won’t be anything left to identify the head.

“This man, like many other octogenarians in government, is simply not in the physical and mental condition necessary to perform the job. We need term limits and age limits.”

______________

Which one, term limits or age limits, addresses the actual problem in this case?

Sorry, the answer we were looking for is “What is a cognitive test?

Thanks for playing.

Age limits would immediately be used to disqualify Trump.

How do people not see this coming from 10,000 light years away?

We also need a Constitution-comprehension test. If people pass it they can serve, but they will be booted out the first time they go against the Constitution in any way. This would prevent massive amounts of trouble and treason that we have to keep dealing with.

“We also need a Constitution-comprehension test.”

_____________

That would only slow down a few people like AOC, depriving us of what little comedy relief government provides.

The rest understand the Constitution, they just ignore it, because there is no enforcement mechanism to punish them for doing so.

.

“If people pass it they can serve, but they will be booted out the first time they go against the Constitution in any way.”

___________

And there’s the problem.

Who boots them out?

A giant spring-loaded mechanical boot in the Senate chamber, or maybe an ejection platform like the one at the bridge in Monty Python’s Holy Grail?

The first thing people in positions of government power do is surround themselves, at taxpayer expense, with a Praetorian Guard who is loyal only to them.

Sure, the security goon squad takes an oath and pretend like they uphold the law, and most of the People enable the pretending, by pretending not to notice that no government official is ever arrested by their own security detail.

Which means either:

A) nobody in government ever abused their power or committed a crime

or

B) everyone in government who ever committed a crime was just too good to ever be observed by their own security detail

or

C) the security detail is a lawless extension of the criminal power structure whose only job is to do violence against anyone who threatens their crime boss

So anyone who would ‘boot’ the criminal out of office has to get past the muscle heads in the sunglasses with the earpieces and the Uzis.

Until or unless there is a mechanism in place to account for that, one which can’t be instantly subverted by money or blackmail, we’re just fooling ourselves.

.

“This would prevent massive amounts of trouble and treason that we have to keep dealing with.”

___________

It definitely would, if we can just find the Holy Mechanism.

TheseTruths

My point exactly.

scott467

Ah… okay, good then! 👍😁

cthulhu

It has long been noted that the Constitution is missing a whole bunch of “or …..” clauses.

As in, “….the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed, or any person or institution attempting same shall be abolished and expelled.”

Or, perhaps, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.….or it shall be an outlaw Congress with all previous acts voided and all members subject to public hanging.

You don’t even need to create a specific authority to make such determinations and perform such actions. As Andrew Jackson famously said, “if one drop of blood be shed there in defiance of the laws of the United States, I will hang the first man of them I can get my hands on to the first tree I can find.”

TradeBait2

Agreed.

So what Constitutionally granted method(s) does the American public have to accomplish same?

cthulhu

Pretty much “vote ’em out”. That’s why a vast perpetual bureaucracy is so poisonous.

Cuppa Covfefe

Perhaps an OR ELSE clause or two would be good as well… 🙂

(paraphrasing the Babbage language, in the case of Fed vs. States’ rights,
IF NOT THEN DON’T…)….

kalbokalbs

It’s all about stopping Trump. Good with term limits. NO to age limits.

What is the practical difference between being indoctrinated, and pretending to be indoctrinated?

What does such a person actually do differently?

From a tyrannical government’s perspective, what’s the difference, whether the population is true believers, or they’re just pretending to be indoctrinated?

The end result is total compliance either way, isn’t it?

Does the government care if we maintain freedom fantasies in our heads, so long as we do what we’re told?

If we pretend to be indoctrinated, and nobody stands up because we’re all afraid of the gulag, then who won the battle — and the war?

Random thoughts:
● I don’t see a problem with people moving out of a state whose laws they don’t agree with. (IOW, I don’t see them as victims.)
At first sight of the son who claims to be a daughter, he looks freakish to me. When he speaks, he sounds like a guy. He clearly has issues.
Those are the people who will perpetuate the “trans” sickness for all of society because their child is sick, they support the avenue that sickness has taken, and they won’t be able to allow themselves to admit their error. They are all in way too deep.
It’s a slickly produced sob story, calculated to humanize the subjects of “mean” policies. It didn’t move me at all. I only see sickness being thrust upon us all, and I see delusional people being used by evil people.

Wonder what state they lived in before FL. The entire family is sick.

Aubergine

I don’t actually have words for how ignorant and stupid I find these people to be.

What is disgusting about this is the problem the “hormones and transition” actually “solved.”

Most of these “transitioners” are the victims of a mental disorder called Histrionic Personality Disorder, or alternatively, extreme Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

Notice that they are unhappy and/or suicidal until they have somehow managed to become the entire focus of their family and everyone around them? I’ve noticed. What they need is therapy and God. Therapy to help them understand that they don’t have to be the center of the universe to be happy, and God to show them how important they actually are in His natural order of things.

What they DON’T need is enablers. That is what these parents are.

pgroup2

Perfectly stated.

Aubergine

Thanks!

Valerie Curren

Huge AMEN!

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Thanks for this input. Very useful.

Aubergine

I once had an experience I wish every one of these people could have. It’s almost unexplainable, but I’ll try.

I stood at the edge of the Grand Canyon, alone, having never seen it before. In that instant, I realized two things: how tiny and insignificant I was in the course of the history of the world; and how miraculous and incredible my existence was in the course of the history of the world.

God made the Grand Canyon, and he made ME. How special is that, and how special does that make me? That is the realization I wish for every single human being. It changed my life.

Crackhead the Bagman,
Was a jolly happy soul,
With an old crack pipe
And a butt for a nose,
And two eyes made out of coal

Crackhead the Bagman,
Is a nightmare they all say
He was made of blow,
But the children know
How he felt them up each day

There must have been some magic
In that old crack pipe he found
For when he placed it to his lips
He began to dance around!

Oh!

Crackhead the Bagman,
Is as high as he could be
And the children say
As they run away,
He’s a creep like his Dad-dy

Thumpety thump, thump,
Thumpety thump, thump,
Look at Crackhead go

Thumpety thump, thump,
Thumpety thump, thump,
Snorting the White House blow

Crackhead the Bagman,
Knew the heat was on that day,
So he said, “Let’s run, and I’ll get my gun, and we’ll make our getaway!”

Down to the village,
With his crack pipe in his hand,
Running here and there,
All around the square,
Sayin’, “Catch me if you can!”

He led them down
The streets of town,
Right to a D.C. cop
But he only laughed maniacally,
When he heard him holler “Stop!

Oh, Crackhead the Bagman,
Had to hurry on his way,
But he waved goodbye,
Sayin’ “Don’t you cry, I’ll be back again some day.”

See ya real soon! 🙋‍♂️ 😁

What if Epstein didn’t deal in underage girls but hired females who could successfully pretend to be underage? Just so he could get extraordinary sums of money from the guys who thought they were f’ing minors and getting away with it.

Helluva a scheme, if you ask me. And now we’ll never know ’cause they snuffed him.

That would be a reasonable theory if there were not so many underage children available for his scheme.

Interesting theory. I think there is documented evidence that some of the girls who accused him and Ghislaine Maxwell were underage. I’d have to check to be sure.

From a satire site that is new to me:
comment image

TheseTruths

This is from Politico, not The Babylon Bee (emphasis mine):

Speaker Kevin McCarthy raised impeachment during a closed-door GOP meeting on Wednesday, cautioning his members that Republicans would launch a probe only when — and if — they secured the evidence to justify one, according to three lawmakers in the room who spoke on condition of anonymity.

At the moment, McCarthy said, Republicans have not amassed enough evidence to start an impeachment inquiry, those three lawmakers said. The speaker further warned members not to overstate what they’ve uncovered so far against the president.

https://www.politico.com/news/2023/07/26/impeachment-politics-biden-mccarthy-garland-mayorkas-gop-00108235

Not “there’s not enough evidence to impeach,” but “there’s not enough evidence to start an impeachment inquiry.” And yet there is enough evidence on the open border alone, without any of the other scandals, to impeach JB. They’re just lily-livered, craven chickens. 🐔

McCarthy must placate his hard-right critics — whose support he’ll need in this week’s high-stakes spending votes — without alienating his most skittish members who face reelection on turf that Biden won. Some House Republicans are left to privately wonder how long the speaker can keep up that balancing act, though he seems to have mollified both sides for now.

And there it is: Keep both sides mollified. Make the “hard right” think you’re doing something, while assuring those worried about reelection that you’re not going to rock the boat. That’s why Repubs don’t get anything done.

An example of the problem:

“There are some people that aren’t going to be happy until everybody in Washington gets impeached. And it just looks like that’s the road we’re going down,” said Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas), who’s criticized some of his conservative colleagues’ impeachment calls.

Impeachment is going to suck all the oxygen out of this place … The people back at home in my district are worried about inflation, worried about the border, their kids being safe in school — you know, real issues,” Gonzales added.

So we have perpetual “investigations into whether impeachment is warranted.” 😡

Some in the conference are pressing party leaders about the effect that a public flirtation with impeachment would have on more vulnerable members. That question got raised during a private GOP leadership meeting on Tuesday, according to a GOP member familiar with the sitdown.

The “vulnerable members” need to hear from their constituents. Not that it would change their minds or give them a spine; they just need to know that ignoring crimes against this country for “politics as usual” is not acceptable.

So far, the GOP’s biggest pro-impeachment voices are echoing McCarthy’s more cautious language, declining to demand a specific timetable.

“An impeachment inquiry is looking very good. It’s looking promising. And I think it’s something that our conference is moving towards,” said Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who called for Biden to face impeachment proceedings on her first day in office.

She echoed McCarthy in stressing that the party was talking only about an inquiry, which “could possibly lead towards” a full impeachment. Asked about her timeline, she said only: “Soon.”

“Soon” for what? An investigation to see whether to look into impeachment? MTG needs to hear from people.

I’m grateful to Politico in this instance for shining the light on cockroach Repubs.

Hi DP, I went to look up your Daniel 3 reference at Bible Gateway & discovered the verses you shared might only be in a few editions of the Bible. The last verse in Daniel 3 (per the Douay-Rheims), verse 100, only appears in 3 English versions per Bible Gateway.

I put the whole chapter of Daniel 3 in parallel between the DWA & the NIV & they appear to roughly correspond for verses 1-23

You can see the parallel here: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Daniel%203&version=DRA;NIV

Verses 24-30 of the NIV appear to correspond to verses 91-97 of the DRA

So verses 24-90 & 98-100 of the DRA don’t appear to correspond with what’s in the NIV, so I wonder what the source of this material is for the DRA doesn’t list footnotes for that chapter…

Here’s what shows for the first verse outside of the NIV version

DANIEL 3:31

CJB

[The following letter was sent out:] “From: N’vukhadnetzar the king “To: All the peoples, nations and languages living throughout the earth: “Shalom rav! [Abundant peace!]

DRA

Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:

NABRE

Therefore all you have brought upon us, all you have done to us, you have done by a proper judgment.

NCB

Therefore, in all the misfortunes you have inflicted upon us, in all you have done to us, you have executed proper judgments.

NRSVACE

So all that you have brought upon us, and all that you have done to us, you have done by a true judgement.

Those three non-Catholic sources w/ at least this one extra verse are the Complete Jewish Bible, the Geneva Bible, & the Tree of Life Version so I’ll see what those 3 versions have for the entire third chapter of Daniel…

Here’s what’s “extra” compared to the NIV for the CJB

31 (4:1) [The following letter was sent out:]

“From: N’vukhadnetzar the king
“To: All the peoples, nations and languages living throughout the earth:
Shalom rav! [Abundant peace!]
32 (4:2) “I am pleased to recount the signs and wonders which the Most High God has done for me.
33 
(4:3) “How great are his signs!
    How powerful his wonders!
    His kingdom lasts forever,
    and he rules all generations.
Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Daniel%203&version=CJB

It looks like those “extra” verses might just represent a varied way of dividing the chapters given numbers in parentheses for the fourth chapter…

Here’s what’s “extra” compared to the NIV for the GNV

31 Nebuchadnezzar king unto all people, nations and languages, that dwell in all the [n]world, Peace be multiplied unto you:
32 I thought it good to declare the signs and wonders, that the high God hath wrought toward me.
33 How great are his signs, and how mighty are his wonders! [o]his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.

Footnotesn Daniel 3:31 Meaning, so far as his dominion extended.
o Daniel 3:33 Read Dan. 2:44.

Finally here’s the “extra” verses compared to the NIV from the TLV

Nebuchadnezzar Acknowledges God’s Kingdom31 King Nebuchadnezzar—
To all peoples, nations and languages who dwell in all the earth: May your peace abound!
32 It seemed good to me to declare the signs and wonders that God Most High has done for me.
33 
How great are His signs,
    how mighty are His wonders!
His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
    His dominion from generation to generation.

I wonder what the source material is for all those “extra” verses that don’t appear in Most English versions of the Bible. This also makes me wonder how many other places in the many different versions of scripture translations contain Significant Differences…Hmmm…

Essentially, they are “fights” with imaginary enemies (often several), that are meant to not only practice the moves but gain fluidity and ease moving from one to another. Obviously, doing them in air doesn’t help with the force of your attacks — there are separate things to do for that.

This is exercise #6.

A random Taekwondo anecdote —

The Fiancee and I had just landed in Saint Petersburg, Russia. They send a bus out to your plane and bus you to the terminal. I’m standing next to a (large) guy wearing a satin Taekwondo jacket with his name embroidered on it — something like 7th dan black belt.

Since we’re standing on this bus waiting for it to load, I turned to him and said, “so it’s you! You’re the guy!” He slowly turned around. I said, “there was this weird question on the four-page visa application about whether you had special knowledge of chemical, biological, nuclear warfare or hand-to-hand combat. Clearly, they had you in mind.” He laughed and said, “I answered ‘no’ on that one.”

I went on to talk about doing our visas weeks in advance and agonizing over the questions (they had things like, “what was your grandfather’s profession?”) — understanding that I was a guest in their country. He explained that he had been specifically invited — there was a major Taekwondo competition being held, and they were short on judges. They called him from Saint Petersburg to ask if he could come. Two hours later, he had a visa; six hours later, he was on a plane.

When we got off the bus and went through immigration at the terminal, he was whisked off into a private car and I never saw him again. We got to experience good ol’ Russian bureaucracy and had to take a cab to our hotel.

Nice guy. I hope he got some laughs among his fellow judges with the story of the guy on the airport bus.

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.

I guess my comment about Daniel Chapter 3 differences between the version DP shared in the opener & how it is found at BibleGateway.com didn’t get approved 🙁

There are big differences that were surprising to me. The NIV version has 30 verses, as do most English versions of that chapter. The Douay-Rheims & several other versions have 100 verses. I was wondering where the other material was sourced as there were no footnotes given (that I saw).

Here is a link to parallel versions of those two versions from BibleGateway if anyone else is interested. My other comment shared the details here but I won’t do that again for maybe that would cause this comment to get deleted too…

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Daniel%203&version=DRA;NIV

This link shows the Eight English versions who at least have 31 verses in Daniel 3.

https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Daniel%203:31

I didn’t think it was overly controversial to ask about the source material for a 70 verse difference in one chapter between different Bible translations. It makes me wonder how many other significant differences Might Exist between various versions of the Bible beyond the inclusion or exclusion of the Apocrypha…

Thanks DP for a very understandable explanation. Blessings!

A CHAT WITH STEPHEN GARDNER ON NATO’S GROWING PANIC
26 July 2023 by Larry Johnson 

Stephen Gardner is a new friend and he has an audience approaching 1.5 million. Not too shabby. He is a good interviewer. Stephen gave me the chance to do a full explanation debunking the claim by Biden, Blinken and Sir Lawrence Freedman that Russia has “lost” the war. The fact that the U.S. leaders and the Brit are using the same talking point is a big red flag that this is a specific message the West is trying to plant in the minds of the media and citizens of their respective countries. Have the NATO folks decided to declare “victory” and get the hell out of Ukraine?

My cousin and I were both baptized Catholic. I am somewhat older, so mine was in Latin; his was in English. Part of the baptism is a bit expelling evil from the infant.

watchdog claiming ethics violations against SCOTUS justices Alito and Thomas likely failed to disclose its own apparent lobbying.
FTA
EXCLUSIVE — A Supreme Court advocacy group alleging ethics violations among justices including Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito likely failed to disclose its own apparent lobbying in violation of federal law, according to experts.

Fix the Court, a charity that used to be a project of the New Venture Fund, an influential nonprofit group that the left-wing dark money behemoth and for-profit consultancy Arabella Advisors manages, is helping to lead a seemingly coordinated campaign demanding Supreme Court justices publicize more about their finances. Those mounting efforts haven’t stopped Fix the Court from not reporting activities on financial disclosures that could constitute grassroots lobbying, multiple tax lawyers told the Washington Examiner.

That Fix the Court may have not disclosed lobbying could further undercut its position as a watchdog committed to “transparency.” In May, Fix the Court Executive Director Gabe Roth notably panicked after unwittingly leaking to the Washington Examiner his group’s donors, which included liberal entities such as the New Venture Fund, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. Senate Democrats last week advanced a bill supported by Roth called the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency Act, which aims to mandate a code of conduct for justices.

RED ALERT 🚨
PLEASE SPREAD AS FAR AND WIDE AS POSSIBLE.
Yours Truly takes no pleasure in the following:

Yours Truly can confirm that the MODERNA COVID-19 “vaccines” (mRNA-1273 AND the “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccine” by this company) contain LIPID NANOPARTICLES THAT ARE INTENDED FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY, NOT FOR HUMAN OR VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC USE.

The lipid nanoparticles in the MODERNA COVID-19 “vaccines” (mRNA-1273 AND the “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccine” by this company) are the following:
SM-102; and,
PEG2000-DMG

Recall that the lipid nanoparticles are the “delivery system” for the spike protein + its mRNA in the COVID-19 “vaccines” by BOTH MODERNA and by Pfizer-BioNTech.

The FDA-issued Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers for the MODERNA “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccine” (recall that mRNA-1273 was taken off the market, likely due to the numbers of reports of serious adverse effects / deaths, caused by this product):
http://www.fda.gov/media/167208/download
Please refer to section 11 Description on Pages 47-48 of the document.

The MSDS OSHA Safety Data Sheet for SM-102:
https://cdn.caymanchem.com/msds/33474m.pdf
On PAGE ONE of the Safety Data Sheet, there is this statement:
“This product is for research use – Not for human or veterinary diagnostic or therapeutic use.”
Under section 4, “First-aid measures”, is the following:
“Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed”
“May cause anemia, cough, CNS depression, drowsiness, headache, heart damage, lassitude (weakness, exhaustion) liver damage, narcosis, reproductive effects, teratogenic effects.”
[CNS depression = Central Nervous System damage; teratogenic effects = birth defects}
Note: the above symptoms and effects listed are for people handling this product during manufacture, storage, and shipping. It does NOT include how this product would behave in the human body IF IT WERE INJECTED INTO IT, AS IT IS IN THE MODERNA COVID-19 “VACCINE” mRNA-1273 OR THE COMPANY’S “BIVALENT COVID-19 VACCINE.”

The MSDS OSHA Safety Data Sheet for PEG2000-DMG [also called DMG-PEG(2000)]:
https://cdn.caymanchem.com/cdn/msds/33945m.pdf
On PAGE ONE of the Safety Data Sheet, there is this statement:
“This product is for research use – Not for human or veterinary diagnostic or therapeutic use.”
Under section 4, “First-aid measures”, there is “No further relevant information available” for this product. [This, IMO, does NOT mean that there aren’t side effects from this product as the ones above for SM-102; it just means there isn’t data available.]

ALSO — The MODERNA COVID-19 “vaccines” (BOTH mRNA-1273 AND the company’s “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccine”) contain MORE of the spike protein + its mRNA in EACH DOSE, for ANY AGE GROUP, compared to the amount of spike protein + its mRNA of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccines” (BOTH BNT-162b2 AND that company’s “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccine”, for ANY AGE GROUP.
However — this DOES NOT MEAN that the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccines” are ANY LESS DANGEROUS.

Here is the LATEST PEER-REVIEWED PAPER on how dangerous the MODERNA “booster vaccine” is:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10002/ejhf.2978
(also at: https://doi.org/10.10002/ejhf.2978)
July 5, 2023
“Myocardial Injury after COVID-19 mRNA-1273 Booster Vaccination”
Natacha Buergin, et al.

WHY are there two dangerous chemical compounds — NOT INTENDED FOR HUMAN OF VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC USE — being used as LNPs (lipid nanoparticles) in the MODERNA COVID-19 “vaccines”, BOTH mRNA-1273 AND the company’s “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccine?” This is ON TOP OF the dangerous mixture of ingredients in these “vaccines” from the lab-enhanced spike protein + its mRNA.

WHY is the mcg dosage of the MODERNA COVID-19 “vaccines” much higher PER DOSE for ALL AGE GROUPS, compared to that of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccines?”

Recall that THE NIH / NIAID (under the aegis of Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins) CO-OWN the PATENTS FOR THE MODERNA COVID-19 “VACCINES” and that these agencies GET ROYALTY PAYMENTS FROM MODERNA.

And also prayers for what you are going through with family members having had the shot. It’s heartbreaking when people who should know better just don’t (or can’t) listen…

RDS

Cuppa
You are too kind, thank you.
It may be that Yours Truly is re-stating things that our indomitable host Wolf Moon has already mentioned. Lord knows that last thing I would try to do is to “make noises” like a trained scientist, which I am not. But I think the more that this information is put in front of people, the better.
Today I did something that I’ve been thinking about doing for some time — I printed out some technical items about the “vaccines” and their ingredients from my accumulated files and mailed the copies to my “fully vaccinated” MD son, along with a loving and respectful letter saying, “Look, I’m concerned about you, I know all I can do is to advise and warn. I’ve done what I could.”

Unbelievably, I read a piece from Nebraska Med that appears to defend the use of SM-102 being used in the Moderna COVID-19 “vaccines” —
http://www.nebraskamed.com/COVID/sm-102-moderna-vaccine
“You asked, we answered: Is it safe for SM-102 to be in the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine?”

SD: “First things first, it’s Politico!  When the Dept of Justice or FBI need to frame a narrative particular to their interests they use Politico and the New York Times. Keep this in mind. When Main Justice needs to position themselves, they leak to NYT and Politico. All leaks are purposeful.

Politico has received a copy of what is claimed to be the original Hunter Biden plea agreement between the USAO in Delaware and the Biden defense team. This is the plea agreement that was challenged by U.S. District Court Judge Maryellen Noreika, who was concerned the structure of the deal appeared to be creating immunity from prosecution for crimes that might come out of a now admitted, ongoing investigation of Hunter Biden; those crimes may include FARA violations.

[Politico Article Here]

[Plea Agreement and Attachment #1 Here]

[Diversion Agreement and Attachment “A” HERE]

The core issue centers around what appears to be clear coordination between the USAO, likely with the approvals of Main Justice (Monaco, Garland) and the Biden defense team, to structure the wording and placement of legal mechanisms inside the plea agreement to not only excuse the current criminal infractions, but also protect Hunter Biden from future criminal liability.

Essentially, all previous activities by Hunter Biden would be immune from prosecution, up to the date of his signing of the plea agreement. A blank slate retroactively, with all exposure for criminal conduct removed.  The conduct surrounding the immunity is outlined in “Exhibit 1” and the “Attachment A” which was filed under seal.”

Maybe a thousand others have posted this:
Kash Patel: There’s only two people at DOJ. There’s one policy that governs it, and there’s only two people that can waive it. And it specifically says, in gun possession crimes that have to do with narcotics, pretrial diversion shall not be granted unless by express waiver of the deputy attorney general or the attorney general. That’s the regulation. That’s why it’s never been given before, except to Hunter.
This is what we call a smoking gun. Now congress must call in BOTH the DAG and the AG and ask them both in the same room at the same time which one of them signed off on that waiver. And if not, who was the rogue who did this so they can haul THEM into congress to lie and purger themselves.

So if anyone has had dental work that included a shot in the gums to numb the mouth before drilling out a cavity or pulling a tooth, etc., then we could have been injected with the same crap that’s in the vaxx?

How do we find out?

What do we ask the dentist for?

Something like an MSDS sheet on the pain medication?

Or do we just need a copy of the label, or what?

Yea, I am irritated about this.

Few months back. Had one of them shots. Asked the hygienist if the injection had any mRNA or “new” technology in it.

We have some after sun sunburn remedy w/ Lidocaine at my parents’ cottage that used to dull the pain a bit. I thought lidocaine was what the dentist rubbed along the gums to numb up the area before injecting the more intense painkillers, a topical thing 🙂

The American banks also raised concerns about wire transfers received by the Bidens from foreign state-owned entities, notably from the Chinese government, allegedly for the purpose of money laundering and tax evasion.
The foreign wires were found to be directed towards Biden’s business associates before being funneled through 20 shell companies associated with the Bidens. Subsequently, the funds were distributed among various Biden family members.
SARs are vital documents that financial institutions must file with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) when they suspect any cases of money laundering or fraudulent activities.
Rep. Comer highlighted one specific SAR linked to a $3 million wire from China to Biden’s business partner, Rob Walker. This money was received in an inactive account that had maintained a $50,000 balance for ten years before the significant wire transaction from China.
Within just 24 hours of receiving the wire, Walker initiated incremental payments to several Biden shell companies, eventually disbursing funds to four different Biden family members.
Comer explained that concealing the source of money through the use of shell companies to deceive the IRS is considered money laundering and racketeering.
He noted that if the funds were intended for legitimate purposes, they could have been wired directly to Hunter Biden, but instead, they were routed through business partners and various companies with no clear legitimate purpose.
Senator Ted Cruz asked, “So the Chinese Communist government was sending the money?”
Rep. Comer replied, “Yes.”
“If Hunter Biden was doing something legitimate for China, they could have just wired the money to Hunter Biden, but they didn’t,” he explained.
“They sent it to a company called Robinson Walker. Then they wired it to a company called Owasco. Then they wired it to another company called Bohai. These companies don’t do anything with the money.”
Senator Cruz responded, “It’s just a bucket to pour the water in, then a bucket to pour it into somewhere else?”
Rep Comer said, “That’s exactly what it is and it was organized. This is like organized crime.”
When the corporate media foolishly asks where is the evidence that the Bidens committed crimes?
American banks have submitted hundreds of suspicious activity reports on the Biden family, alleging their involvement in human trafficking, money laundering, and tax fraud.
Congressional investigators have obtained bank account records and wire transfer statements on twenty shell companies owned by the Bidens, which were allegedly used for laundering illegally obtained money from China, Russia, Ukraine, Romania, and Kazakhstan as unregistered foreign agents.
This evidence is supported by hundreds of thousands of emails, tens of thousands of text messages, photographs, audio recordings, calendar statements, and ten years of data from Hunter Biden’s laptop, which the FBI took into its possession in 2019.

@MarcoPolo501c3

published a comprehensive “Report on the Biden Laptop,” documenting 459 alleged crimes involving the Biden family and their associates, including 140 business crimes, 191 sex crimes, and 128 drug crimes.
A $1,000 reward is offered for any verifiable corrections, but thus far, no crimes have been disputed.
In addition, credible IRS whistleblowers have accused the Justice Department of obstructing the Hunter Biden investigation by blocking felony charges, search warrants, and interviews while preventing any investigation of the President and his family.
Furthermore, just yesterday, a judge highlighted an unprecedented lenient deal offered by the Justice Department to Hunter Biden, which would result in no felony charges or jail time for tax fraud and lying on a gun form.
This DOJ deal would have also granted protection to the First Son from any future prosecution related to illegally obtained money from foreign nations as an unregistered foreign agent.
What is more corrosive and destructive to our nation than a politicized Justice Department that applies different legal standards depending on whether one’s last name is Trump or Biden?
FJ Biden is dead

Andrei Martyanov’s latest:

“… Meanwhile, the reality sets in:

Continuing to arm Ukraine and expecting it to defeat Russia is “strategic insanity” for Washington and other NATO members because Kiev is locked in an unwinnable stalemate with a foe that never aimed to conquer the former Soviet republic, USA Today has reported, citing multiple US foreign-policy experts. The report, published on Thursday, hints at a shifting narrative for Western media outlets, which had been touting Ukraine’s alleged battlefield successes, as well as vows by the Biden administration that Kiev must be supported with massive military and economic aid for “as long as it takes” to win the conflict with Russia. Georgetown University professor Sean McFate, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council think tank in Washington, told the newspaper that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has begun to lose credibility – Kiev’s “main asset” – with Western benefactors. He claimed that Zelensky has locked himself into a “NATO is experiencing donor fatigue and disappointment with Zelensky’s bluster,” said McFate, a US Army veteran who also has consulted for the Pentagon and the CIA. He added that continuing to send billions of dollars’ worth of weaponry to Ukraine on expectations that Zelensky’s regime can win the conflict is “the definition of strategic insanity.”

Well, it is not Zelensky who “has begun to lose credibility”, it is NATO which already lost it, and “donor fatigue” is not “fatigue” but the loss of the war. The reality simply sets in. NATO, a euphemism for Pentagon“planning” is a joke. And they are envious, painfully envious and jealous.”

Minor quibble. dope yammering uses the word stalemate. Nope.

  • Ukraine is losing AND WILL lose. As will US, UK, EU, NATO…
  • Russia has all of the winning cards.

Hopefully all of this will lead to NATO imploding.

Comment lifted from Andrei’s blog:

Is there a time horizon for cognitive dissonance to set in?

The combined West is looking through a window on reality and their shock is enormous.

Prior to the latest fiasco of counter-offensive against the southern defenses of Surovikin, the combined West could crow about the war going badly for Russia, the lack of Russian missiles, the morale of Russian troops, the disarray in the command structure of the MOD and GS, and, of course, the Prigozhin-Wagner mutiny.

Now, as we know, these topics were illusions. Facts changed everything, and everything is bad for Ukraine and the combined West.

So, the psychopaths and sociopaths of the combined West have one more mental condition to deal with. They have to process the truth, the reality, the facts of the SMO, the facts of Ukie military annihilation, the facts of NATO running out of ammunition for artillery, the facts of poor leadership and ignorant planning by US and UK generals and the facts that ideology is not a factor in warfare.

Hate has taken the combined West on a military misadventure that has Russia in the driver’s seat and Ukraine about to be snowplowed into oblivion, as well as NATO likely in its last gasp as an alliance.

Wendy Sherman retires, as of today. Biden has appointed Victoria Nuland as Interim Deputy Secretary at the State Department. This is the job just below Antony Blinken.

Upon Wendy’s retirement, President Biden has asked Victoria Nuland to serve as Acting Deputy Secretary until our next Deputy Secretary is confirmed. We are fortunate to have someone with her experience, skill, and commitment to the Department take on this added responsibility.

https://www.state.gov/on-th

Alex C (of Duran) this morning stated that there are rumors out there that she is the one running the Ukraine counter-offensive. Makes sense, as the focus has been on Crimea, and that seems to be Nuland’s favorite target.

This is the best explainer of what happened with Hunter Biden’s plea deal in court that I have read. It’s from Will Scarf on Twitter:

Based on conversations with people who were in the courtroom today, and my experience as a former federal prosecutor, I think I know the full story of what happened with the Hunter Biden plea agreement blow-up this morning.

Bear with me, because this is a little complicated:

Typically, if the Government is offering to a defendant that it will either drop charges or decline to bring new charges in return for the defendant’s guilty plea, the plea is structured under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11(c)(1)(A). An agreement not to prosecute Hunter for FARA violations or other crimes in return for his pleading guilty to the tax misdemeanors, for example, would usually be a (c)(1)(A) plea. This is open, transparent, subject to judicial approval, etc.

In Hunter’s case, according to what folks in the courtroom have told me, Hunter’s plea was structured under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11(c)(1)(B), which is usually just a plea in return for a joint sentencing recommendation only, and contained no information on its face about other potential charges, and contained no clear agreement by DOJ to forego prosecution of other charges.

Instead, DOJ and Hunter’s lawyers effectively hid that part of the agreement in what was publicly described as a pretrial diversion agreement relating to a § 922(g)(3) gun charge against Hunter for being a drug user in possession of a firearm.

That pretrial diversion agreement as written was actually MUCH broader than just the gun charge. If Hunter were to complete probation, the pretrial diversion agreement prevented DOJ from ever bringing charges against Hunter for any crimes relating to the offense conduct discussed in the plea agreement, which was purposely written to include his foreign influence peddling operations in China and elsewhere.

So they put the facts in the plea agreement, but put their non-prosecution agreement in the pretrial diversion agreement, effectively hiding the full scope of what DOJ was offering and Hunter was obtaining through these proceedings. Hunter’s upside from this deal was vast immunity from further prosecution if he finished a couple years of probation, and the public wouldn’t be any the wiser because none of this was clearly stated on the face of the plea agreement, as would normally be the case.

Judge Noreika smelled a rat. She understood that the lawyers were trying to paint her into a corner and hide the ball. Instead, she backed DOJ and Hunter’s lawyers into a corner by pulling all the details out into the open and then indicating that she wasn’t going to approve a deal as broad as what she had discovered.

DOJ, attempting to save face and save its case, then stated on the record that the investigation into Hunter was ongoing and that Hunter remained susceptible to prosecution under FARA. Hunter’s lawyers exploded. They clearly believed that FARA was covered under the deal, because as written, the pretrial diversion agreement language was broad enough to cover it. They blew up the deal, Hunter pled not guilty, and that’s the current state of play.

And so here we are. Hunter’s lawyers and DOJ are going to go off and try to pull together a new set of agreements, likely narrower, to satisfy Judge Noreika. Fortunately, I doubt if FARA or any charges related to Hunter’s foreign influence peddling will be included, which leaves open the possibility of further investigations leading to further prosecutions.

kalbokalbs

Thankfully Noreika, AND her clerks smelled a rat.

Looked at the structure and realized Prosecutors and Hunters lawyers were in bed, having a good time.

FWIW, Noreika appointed by Trump.

Supreme Court Ruling Reinstates 303-Mile Natural Gas Pipeline Construction, Dealing Blow to Climate Change Activists

In a victory for the fossil fuel industry and a setback for environmental activists, the United States Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that construction of the 303-mile Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) could resume.

This move effectively nullified the July 10 stay orders issued by the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in favor of plaintiffs Wilderness Society and Appalachian Voices, environmental activists that had instigated legal proceedings to halt the pipeline…

The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals suspended construction of the 303-mile pipeline that is almost 95% complete, despite legislative and executive support of the project with the passage of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, according to West Virginia Records…

According to FOX News, the pipeline’s developer, Equitrans Midstream, MVP will transport approximately 2 billion cubic feet of natural gas daily from West Virginia to the Mid-Atlantic and South Atlantic. Projected benefits include $40 million in new tax revenue for West Virginia, $10 million for Virginia, and up to $250 million in royalties for West Virginia landowners. The resumption of the pipeline construction ushers in a controversial chapter in the ongoing national discourse about energy, environment, and economic development.

pgroup2

“Oh shit, we can’t just file-and-win any more.”

Happy go lucky

This is complete and utter bullsh!t. Lies, lies, lies. MVP are slimy mofos and this is not a win for anyone except whore politicians like Terry McCauliflour and his sycophants and every sorry state employee in VDEQ.

MVP are worms and pathetic, sh!teating scum. They’ve maliciously and intentionally failed to maintain the minimum of environmental standards, silted up and permanently ruined rainbow trout streams, ruined Virginia roads, ruined Virginia homes, and not been held responsible by the fools with the authority to make them abide by our laws and their contracts.

The f*cking reason their f*cking pipeline is 95% complete is because they have illegally ignored previous stays and kept up their sorry excuse for workmanship, thumbing their out of state noses at the court ordered stays mandating them to stop until they can get their sh!t together.

MVP have f*cked poor Appalachian people, who are Trump voters by the way, and this region will not be seeing any of that energy as it will not be sold here and that was always the intention. MVP’s stated employment policy exclusively used out of state workers, so not even a job for locals, but we sure get to keep the mailbox sellers in business, what with continuously buying new mailboxes that the MVP a$$hats love to destroy with their longbed trucks. Oh but, but, but…there is a “projected” $10 million benefit for Virginia, snort, that is not even worth bragging about and certainly won’t be seen in the localities bearing the brunt of hosting these dirt dwelling parasites.

Millionaire Crypto Influencer Found Chopped Up in Suitcase, Sent Out Cryptic Message Before Death

Argentinian authorities reported that Fernando Perez Algaba’s dismembered body was found inside a red suitcase by a group of children who were playing by a stream in the town of Ingeniero Budge.

After the children made the horrifying discovery they told their parents who then contacted the police.

As investigators were called to the scene they discovered Algaba’s legs and forearms inside the suitcase and identified him through his various tattoos.

Police later discovered the millionaire’s head and torso in a separate location.

Before he went missing, Algaba posted cryptic messages on social media about “evil people” who were out to get him…

Investigators noted that Algaba’s body was “cleanly amputated” which indicates he was possible killed by a professional contract killer.

An autopsy report revealed Algaba was shot three times before being dismembered.

He seriously pissed off somebody.  😫

When shooting and killing is not enough…

WTH is going on here?

TheseTruths

The usual and the expected, unfortunately.

It appears that Donald Trump, in the NEW indictment, is accused of trying to delete the server at Mar-a-Lago and also of trying to wipe surveillance footage. It also appears that at least one of his employees is being accused in the indictment along with POTUS45.

I had read that they were going to try to get them on “moving boxes.” Deleting a server is new to me. If Trump just took a hammer to it, maybe this would all go away. 🙄

Or wiped it, like, with a cloth (or whatever HELL-the-BEAST said)…

So, they go to GREAT lengths to insure that CokeSpoonHunter is not prosecuted more than once, indeed, at all for his many and varied crimes, yet they invent and duplicate supposed crimes by and for VSGPDJT in different venues to keep him off the ballot and to harass him the way that $cientology does to its targets…

They must be being instructed by the Devil himself.

Revelation 12:9-10:

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

Fox News reported:

Former President Donald Trump, reacting to the latest charges against him from Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation, slammed the Justice Department for “abuse,” and said “this is what you get” for leading the polls for the White House in 2024.

“It’s election interference at the highest level,” Trump told Fox News Digital just after he learned of the latest indictment. “They’re harassing my company, they’re harassing my family and by far, least importantly of all, they’re harassing me.” 

Trump told Fox News Digital that “the charges are ridiculous, and they know it better than anyone.”

“This is prosecutorial misconduct used at a level never seen before,” Trump said. “If I weren’t leading Biden by a lot in numerous polls, and wasn’t going to be the Republican nominee, it wouldn’t be happening. It wouldn’t be happening.” 

He added: “But I am way up as a Republican and way up in the general election and this is what you get.” 

Trump told Fox News Digital that “our country is suffering from DOJ abuse.”

Isn’t it supposed to be “retention” instead of “detention”?

kalbokalbs

Doncha know, legal types don’t speak regular English.

No doubt obfuscation is the name of their game so the plebes never know what’s being done to them by their “betters”…spit! 😉

That was nice. There’s a good docu about them. Really interesting and they were genuinely good people with insane talent

Barry Gibb’s voice is just so distinctive. Really beautiful.

I was madly in love with his baby brother Andy when I was a teen. I saw him in concert once. And weirdly enough, Andy died of myocarditis, probably caused by a virus. Ahead of his time in more ways than one. He was only thirty when he died.

This from a briefing in the Donbass in the last few days. Seems like a really long time not to have answers (over 2yrs now).

Ground report: my cousin Velma just told me about a young man they know, Jordan Jackson. He is competing for KWFC radio’s Gospel Great in Springfield, Missouri and is the son of their pastor. Today, he was named one of the Top 2 singers remaining in the competition. If he wins, he gets to sing two songs at a picnic at Silver Dollar City. There’s no prize money but it’s exciting and easy to listen. The site let me vote for him without any hassle or personal info. He sings a cappella, which I think is challenging.

If anyone feels moved to listen or even vote for Jordan, that would be cool. Voting will run from July 27-31. Here is what Jordan wrote in his short bio… I love him seeing his singing as blessing God’s heart.  ❤ 

“Hi my name is Jordan Jackson, I am blessed with a beautiful wife named Madison, and we have a mini doodle named Dixie. Outside of work and school I enjoy hunting, hiking, sports, and time with friends and family. I am a manager at Chick-fil-A in Branson as well as completing my Bachelors degree in business. I have the privilege of leading worship at our church (Citizens Nazarene) in Branson. I’ve been singing for as long I can remember, and I believe singing is a wonderful way to bless God’s heart. When I sing, I desire to do just that, bless His heart and give Him praise, because He is worthy!”
