2023·09·30 Joe Biden Didn’t Win Daily Thread

Oh, Boy A Shutdown

MOAR SHUTDOWN!!!!

The government will temporarily stop doing much of the useless stuff it does. Not nearly enough.

And it won’t start doing any of the useful things it hasn’t been doing (apparently it hasn’t done anything useful in, oh, almost three years).

So it’s a mixed bag. But shutdowns piss off all the right people. So…revel in it!

This Man is Pissed!

And if you aren’t…what the hell is wrong with you?

Is This Our Anthem?

Or at least our song to march to?

I’m sure most of you know I don’t believe in “devolution” or any variant of “we’re really still in charge” and certainly not the ones that come with “They’re waiting for everyone to wake up.”

No, I don’t think the good guys are in charge. But that makes it even more necessary that people wake up.

This might be the Uncle Tom’s Cabin of our age. (Or perhaps the recent trafficking movie was it. Or maybe both.)

Certainly there seem to be a huge number of people who are finally having the light bulb turning on when they hear this song.

Joining The Herd Of Lemmings

I’ve had cause to consider a few things. Maybe we’re going about it the wrong way, and we need to ditch Trump

Yeah, NO

Trump all the way! Why? Because being hated by the people who hate him is a sign of impeccable character, that’s why.

The haters can go fuck themselves with rusty twelve gauge bore brushes. I’d prefer ten gauge but that’s kind of scarce, so…I’m willing to compromise.

The RINO’s Dilemma

The RINOs who who have burrowed in and taken over most GOP organizations, from the state down to local organizations, have quite a dilemma on their hands, and most of them have their heads too far up their asses to realize it.

OK, I’m not talking about the liberal in a Republican area, who knows they’re in the wrong party, but is there because it’s the only game in their town; they hope to capture a nomination someday, at which point they’re guaranteed to be elected…otherwise, they never will be. These people are a hazard in any heavily conservative area.

No, I’m talking about the guys who are a little bit conservative and want to do some good by going into politics, and they’re in a closely matched area, closely enough that they can join the party they are most aligned with and still have a chance. They think the Democrats…particularly the ones who end up running for office…are nuts.

They don’t think much better of the Deplorable types, either. A bunch of bumpkins whose hearts are in the right place, mostly…OK a bit extreme. But they think Deplorables can’t understand that first you have to get elected, then work within the system to change things…a slow process. They genuinely want many of the things Deplorables want…just not as much. The government is spending too much. Or they need to spend money on highways instead of welfare for illegal immigrants. But they want to work within the system to get these things done.

Or maybe they think things are pretty close to ideal right now, and they want to nail it in place.

The problem is, that means they don’t stand for anything in particular. And it shows. They’re about as unappetizing to the electorate as a puddle of dog vomit. The folks in the middle, who they think they are appealing to because they themselves are not extreme, would honestly prefer a clear-spoken radical to someone who qualifies everything they say to the point where they sound like they don’t believe anything at all.

The problem these “Mild RINOs” have, is they just can’t see that. And the reason they just can’t see that, is their entire sense of self-worth is tied up in not seeing that. In their minds, they’ve worked tirelessly for their party, to keep those crazy Democrats out…only to have to constantly fight with a small number of crazy Republicans–who are only liabilities if they end up as candidates. They’ve fought the good fight, and if they can just find the right candidate, someone with some charisma, they might stop the crazies…without being too beholden to the OTHER crazies. In the meantime it’s not working. What’s a responsible guy in politics to do?

They simply cannot understand that the Republicans can’t succeed as the party of nothing in particular. Not really in the past, and certainly not today when people are starting to realize that no matter what they do in the voting booth, the country is still about to fly off a precipice. If they did see it, they’d suddenly have two choices: Go away and let the GOP succeed, or stay and fight. But “go away” isn’t really an option, because what’s the point of having a party now owned by the crazies, win?

Well, they have a dilemma…and WE, therefore have a problem. And we would have that problem even IF they realized that they had a problem…that they were the problem.

No one ever thinks they are the bad guy. Even Epstein probably thought he was the good guy. Right up to the moment where he didn’t kill himself.

So if you ever wonder why these unappetizing dufuses cling on even when their fingernails are being left behind…that’s why. They don’t understand no one wants them, and can’t imagine that no one should want them. And oftentimes their greatest pride is in all the hard work they’ve done for the party. They’re not going to give that up; it’d be psychological suicide.

If you’ve worked with these people, there’s a good chance you like them and consider some of them your friends. But even if so…we’re going to have to give them a good, hard shove. Because America is more important than those milquetoasts’ egos.

Justice Must Be Done

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

Annular Eclipse Oct 14

OK the first thing y’all in the Basket of Deplorables need to unnerstand is “Annular” is not some weird down-home way to pronounce annual.

😀

It actually comes from “annulus” or “ring.”

This is an eclipse of the sun, and it will not be a total eclipse like the one in 2017. The Moon will pass directly between the Earth and Sun, which would normally cause a total eclipse for some lucky people, but in this case, it will not. The Moon will be too far away from Earth, and thus will not seem quite wide enough to cover the sun. If you find yourself exactly in line with the Moon and the Sun sometime on October 14, you will therefore see the Sun as a ring, since the moon won’t be big enough to cover it, but will be (from your point of view) centered over the Sun. So, from the ring like appearance of the Sun, “annular” eclipse.

We are actually pretty lucky. As seen from Earth the Moon and Sun appear very nearly the same size. (The Sun is in fact roughly 400 times as wide as the Moon, but it’s also 400 times further away.) Because of the near-perfect match in size, solar eclipses happen where the Moon just barely covers the Sun’s disk, leaving a clear view of the solar atmosphere (the corona).

There are two downsides, though.

One is that you have to be directly in line with the Moon and Sun to see a total solar eclipse. The other is that sometimes the moon is just too far away and you get an annular eclipse.

I went to see the last annular eclipse in the US, but forgot the plate that holds my camera to my tripod so got no pictures. But it looks like this:

I have seen both annulars and total eclipses now. And I can tell you comparatively speaking an annular eclipse is dogshit compared to a total solar eclipse.

An annular is worth seeing once–but don’t bust your budget or spend too much money on it.

Total solar eclipses have groupies who will travel the world to see them, again and again and again.

The good news is you do not have to settle for this one. There will be a total solar eclipse next April that will hit much more populous areas of the United States. If it’s a long trip to the annular eclipse…save your money and go to the April eclipse instead.

After next year’s total the US will have to wait until 2045…but that one will be easy for me assuming I’m alive and still living here…I just have to park a lawn chair in front of the house.

OK so here’s the explanation.

Below is a pretty standard illustration of what’s going on in a solar eclipse. Nothing is to scale (not even remotely), but in a fictitious earth/moon/sun system where these are to scale, it would work the same.

If you are somewhere in the region marked “umbra” you cannot see the Sun because the Moon is blocking it. (The Moon always has an umbra but it is almost always completely out in space.) The “penumbra” is that volume of space where the moon partially covers the sun. It overlaps it, and the Sun looks like someone took a bite out of it.

Notice that in the diagram the umbra just barely touches the Earth. That’s the usual situation during an eclipse, but this time the point of the umbra won’t quite reach the Earth’s surface because the Moon is close to the furthest point in its elliptical orbit around the Earth.

Again not even remotely to scale (and they used a different wrong scale in this diagram). Note here the point of the umbra doesn’t touch Earth, but there is a conical “antiumbra” to the right of the umbra. It’s basically the other half of the same cone (technically a cone isn’t just one pointy teepee shape, it’s two of them touching at the points). Inside the antiumbra the Moon passes entirely in front of the Sun but appears too small to cover it.

OK, so there’s one very natural question you might be asking yourself, planning to ask me in the comments. If the Moon goes around the Earth once a month (indeed that is the original definition of a month though our calendar months are somewhat too long to match perfectly), why don’t we have some sort of solar eclipse, somewhere on Earth, every month?

Well, we would, if the Moon’s orbit about the Earth were in the same plane as the Earth’s orbit around the Sun (that plane shows up as the ecliptic in the sky). However, they aren’t the same plane and the Moon’s orbit is therefore “tilted” relative to the ecliptic about five degrees. Two planes that aren’t parallel will intersect in a line, so the moon has to happen to be on that line, just as it’s passing (roughly) between the Earth and the Sun on a new moon, for there to be a solar eclipse.

(Wow this is actually a pretty good diagram (but also not even remotely to scale)!) You can see that at some points in Earth’s orbit around the Sun, the Moon (if it happens to be new moon at the time rather than say a quarter moon to the left or right of Earth) will eclipse the sun. And if the moon happens to be full at that time you’ll get Earth’s round shadow covering the moon (a lunar eclipse).

Eclipse Maps

Here are maps of the ground track for both the October annular eclipse and the April total eclipse.

The red path running from Oregon through Texas is the area in which the antiumbra will pass; people in that stripe will see the entire Moon in front of the Sun. It will be centered in the center of the path. You can see the times marked in green (Universal Time; Mountain Daylight time is 6 hours behind) that so the eclipse leaves Texas for the Gulf at 11:00 AM MDT or 12 Noon Texas time.

The moon’s penumbra (region of partial eclipse) is shown in light blue.

Now for the April 8 eclipse next year:

Note that the path is in blue indicating the umbra is making the path, not the anti-umbra; otherwise the diagram works the same. And you’ll notice this one goes through Texas at a 90 degree angle to the first one (hitting Dallas and Texarkana), then goes through the Midwest. It almost hits St. Louis, grazes Dayton and Columbus, hits Cleveland and Toledo and then largely tracks Lake Erie and the St. Lawrence river. Easy travel for many of us. And much more worthwhile.

Which is not to say I won’t go see the annular eclipse if I feel up for a road trip two weeks from today. This time I’ll have the complete camera tripod. (Do or do not. There is no “tri.”)

Why Not To Scale?

I’ve been commenting on the diagrams not being to scale. This isn’t a cheap-out; it’s impossible to show Earth, Moon and Sun to scale on a diagram without either having to scroll a LOT, or having Earth and Moon be smaller than a pixel.

Below are the Earth and Moon, drawn to scale both in size and distance. The Sun is 400 times as wide as the Moon, and 400 times more distant. On my monitor that would put it over 200 feet away.

This is basically the ONLY time you will ever see a to-scale diagram on astronomy. You might see sizes to scale, or distances, but never both at the same time. When I wrote on the Great Conjunction back in 2020, I had diagrams (drawn by me based on actual positions) that were to scale for distances, but even the Sun would have beenless than one pixel across in those diagrams if they were fully to scale.

Fuck Joe B*d*n

Due to complaints about foul language, I’ve censored the most objectionable word in the title of this section.

B*d*n, you don’t even get ONE scoop of ice cream today.

(Please post this somewhere permanent, as it will continue to be true; the SOB will never deserve a scoop.)

Joe Biden is Asshoe

China is in the White House, because Joe Biden is in the White House, and Joe Biden is identically equal to China. China is Asshoe. Therefore, Joe Biden is Asshoe.

Can we get an explanation of Queen Elizabeth having an annulus horribilis?

phoenixrising

QE 1 or QE 2?

Cuppa Covfefe

(forgive me) QED…

My Mum (a born Londoner) was getting one of those tests they give the elderly at nursing homes, and the woman testing her, noticing her British accent asked, “have you met Queen Elizabeth”.

My Mum, not missing a beat, replied, “Yes, both of them” 🙂 Took a minute for the nurse to get this, laughed and said something like “you look wonderful for your age”…

cthulhu

I understand that some papers had trouble spelling that.

RAC

One of her(?) big properties got on fire and I think something else happened the same year.

Barb Meier
cthulhu

Thank you. The year was 1992.

Barb Meier

You’re welcome. I couldn’t remember either.

cthulhu

I do very much hate to try to explain things, but this is going somewhat afield…..

Queen Elizabeth was beset with a run of bad luck one year — including a fire in the private quarters of Windsor Castle and a bunch of relationship issues among the royal family. Being very much of the old tradition, where she was truly educated in Western Civilization including Latin and Greek, she daintily laid it off to an “annus horibilis” — a “horrible year” in Latin — without going into the details that may have been evoked by a description in English.

Unfortunately, the press had the benefit of neither a classical nor a first-class education, and a bunch of them ran with “anus horibilis” — Latin for a “horrible butthole”.

Which leads to a bunch of lame riffs like “annulus horibilis” — “horrible ring”.

In my view, the underlying tragedy is the “horibilis” decline of education in the UK. One wonders if the reporters who don’t know their annus from their anus would recognize the genius of Shakespeare or Newton.

While not a great fan of royalty, one has to recognize that it is best performed competently — and the late Queen was a grand example.

People are planning eclipse parties for April. Anyone who is traveling to view it probably needs to try to get a hotel now.

pgroup2

I’d like to buy a hotel if I ever land on Boardwalk or Park Place.  😀

I traveled to that eclipse with all of my family members. We camped in a field. It was VERY cool. The eclipse itself was one of the strangest experiences of my life.

Totality will be over Southern Illinois. It’s on my radar, as it would not be all that long of a drive.

Nice to hear from you. Good Energy and Peace to you and yours.

It is very cool. I don’t think you would regret making the trip.

Deplorable Patriot

The last one, the northern edge of totality was about two, three miles south of where I live. I ended up in the grocery store parking lot. It was really kind of amazing.

kalbokalbs

Drove into Southern Idaho. Set up lawn chairs in an elementary school parking lot.

Lotsa folks. Incredible experience. Spooked the dogs, as they howled. Knowing something was amiss. 🙂

ThinkGeek used to sell a universal remote that was about the size of a key fob. It would self-learn and could perform most of the functions of different brands of remote. Great fun at places like Circus City 🙂 and TV stores, etc…

I miss ThinkGeek… I heard they went against the grain, going from online to brick-and-mortar after they were sold…..

Valerie Curren

We were eating at an Applebee’s recently & there was a huge TV next to our table w/ a show on, but there were other TVs that had on the sports game we wanted to watch. So I asked the waiter if he could change our TV to that game & he said our TV was “broken” so couldn’t change the channel…hmmm

scott467

That’s when you say “Well that empty table isn’t broken, over there by another TV that has the game on, so we’re moving to that table.”

The KEY is to TELL THEM that you are doing it. 👍

If you ASK, they can say ‘No’, but if you tell them that’s what you’re doing, then they have to try to stop you 😂

[personally, I would just get up and move while the waiter was somewhere else, then if they don’t like it, they have to actually try to make you move back to the previous table, and that’s not happening!]

That dovetails with this article:

The latest ABC/Washington Post survey of the presidential contest probably affected a lot of fearful Democratic political junkies like an electric cattle prod plunged into their Sunday-morning bathwater. The top-line numbers showing Trump leading Biden by 52 percent to 42 percent among registered voters represented a hair-raising departure from the very close general-election contest most polls have recently documented; indeed, the Post described its own poll as a probable outlier. (The last ABC/WaPo survey in May gave Trump a six-point lead, which also raised eyebrows.)

What will they come up with? 🤔 Whatever it is, it won’t be good.

Aubergine

Sundance thinks (I disagree) that it is RFK, Jr. running as an independent:

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/09/29/robert-kennedy-jr-to-run-as-independent-in-2024-election/

I can’t wait to see how Trump takes him out, and what his new nickname will be. I would suggest “Kooky Kennedy” myself. The dude has some WAY OUT THERE ideas.

Deplorable Patriot

This is part of the show, IMO. RFK Jr.’s function is redpilling some of the still sleeping, like my hotshot in his own mind brother who thinks I’m an idiot conspiracy theorist. Nevermind the batting average in the last few years.

Aubergine

Right!? I have a few of those. No matter times I’ve been right, they are still asleep.

RFK, Jr. really is effective as a red pill.

I hope you and your family are doing ok. Still praying for you all.

Deplorable Patriot

We’re okay for now, although, there were changes overnight. My brothers visited to say goodbye. God willing, she will still be with us tomorrow. I don’t want to see her until I’ve sung Mass. Getting a sub at this point would not be doable.

De Pat my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I agree. Sundance is correctly thinking that RFKJ is an op – it IS an op. And Sundance is correctly thinking that QAnon was an op. It WAS an op.

What SD is not computing is that TRUMP was an OP, too.

What SD is not computing is that the OP is bigger than both PDJT and RFKJ, and that the OP is not interested in Gruesome, Moochelle, or any the BIDEN/OBAMA or CLINTON sides winning.

The op is interested in EITHER Trump or RFKJ winning. The OP has bigger goals. I have no idea whether PDJT or RFKJ is the preferred winner – it may actually be REFRAINING from favoring either, based on the OP’s own principles.

There is a big show going on. A very interesting one.

pgroup2

Hmmmmmm …

TheseTruths

It is one thing for an operation like Q to be an OP because there have to be people orchestrating it. But it is quite different for two people to be said to be an OP.

Would you please explain what it means for RFKJ to be an OP. Is he playing a role while someone else is pulling the strings? If so, does he realize that? Did someone talk him into running for president, telling him that his mission is to red-pill people, and he agreed to run — knowing that his chances of winning are slim to none unless he gets installed somehow — in order to be part of the OP? Or is he an unwitting participant in the OP?

Who is running this OP?
Is it for the benefit of America, or not? You say it is not interested in certain people, all leftists, winning. But I don’t think RFKJ would be the optimal choice to restore America, so I don’t trust an OP that would place him in the presidency.

Same questions for Trump. What does he know, and what does he think is happening? Does he know he’s an OP?

If both men are being influenced to run by someone else, don’t we need to know who that is, and aren’t there things we should be doing about an entity that has that much power over the things that so strongly influence our lives?

This adds a dimension of the unknown which I expect to still be present even if you respond to this, because, respectfully, I doubt that you’re going to provide straight answers. It is a dimension that makes it appear nothing is as it seems, and even the small ability we still possess to influence our government is not real, and the people we think we can trust are not genuine. If that is the case, what’s the use of trying?

That said, IMO we need to know the truth. It is disconcerting to have things presented that are mysterious and unknown and seemingly uncontrollable. It is disconcerting to believe that all that one sees, even the things and people thought to be trustworthy, are not real. But if that is truth, then we have to deal with it. Being left in ignorance and in limbo does not serve our purposes.

If you can, please clear up any misunderstandings in my questions.

TheseTruths

True.

I evaluate Q with my eyes wide open, knowing that what is said might or might not prove accurate. I see good that has come of it, and I think there are good people behind it. Some aspects of it are entertaining.

As for theories about people being used — which it seems they must be if they are an OP — before I could evaluate whether such theories are plausible, I at least would like an explanation of how they would work in the real world. If there are hidden hands controlling people, then what are the nuts and bolts of that? Who’s doing that? Do the “controlees” know, or not? In RFKJ’s case, did he agree to run, knowing he would probably lose, but thinking the people need to be educated about some of the issues? What does it say about Trump if he is willingly part of an OP, the outcome of which might not be his becoming POTUS but that RFKJ would be instead? Is the theory that he is cooperating in such a scheme? Or is it that someone is controlling things to such an extent that Trump isn’t even aware and is a pawn? If that’s the case, shouldn’t we know that? I mean, if someone knows about such a plot, shouldn’t it be exposed?

I don’t think those are unreasonable questions. Yet, many people just accept that “that’s the way it is” when no other aspect of life works like that.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I’ll try to answer your questions within limits of not spoiling things.

Bear in mind that Washington is like ancient Rome – filled with conspiratorial and counter-conspiratorial factions.

I’ll copy your response and insert comments.

*****************

It is one thing for an operation like Q to be an OP because there have to be people orchestrating it. But it is quite different for two people to be said to be an OP.

I meant that their candidacies are ops. Note that this does not mean these are not legitimate candidacies.

Would you please explain what it means for RFKJ to be an OP.

See above.

Is he playing a role while someone else is pulling the strings?

He’s being a candidate. Is that playing a role? You must make that call.

If so, does he realize that?

Maybe yes, maybe no, maybe he suspects things – could be anything.

Did someone talk him into running for president,

Probably – and one or more of them were almost certainly associated with the putative op or ops

telling him that his mission is to red-pill people,

doubtful, IMO

and he agreed to run — knowing that his chances of winning are slim to none unless he gets installed somehow — in order to be part of the OP?

I don’t even want to guess about his connections to IC, etc.

Or is he an unwitting participant in the OP?

Don’t know

Who is running this OP?

Not positive, and don’t want to name my suspects.

Is it for the benefit of America, or not?

I believe so – that it’s for the country’s benefit.

You say it is not interested in certain people, all leftists, winning.

Different factions have ops supporting those players.

But I don’t think RFKJ would be the optimal choice to restore America, so I don’t trust an OP that would place him in the presidency.

Welcome to factions. The faction behind the op may have different goals from you, and different values.

Same questions for Trump. What does he know, and what does he think is happening? Does he know he’s an OP?

Trump is at least Q-aware, IMO.

If both men are being influenced to run by someone else, don’t we need to know who that is, and aren’t there things we should be doing about an entity that has that much power over the things that so strongly influence our lives?

Depends on the entity, IMO.

This adds a dimension of the unknown which I expect to still be present even if you respond to this, because, respectfully, I doubt that you’re going to provide straight answers. It is a dimension that makes it appear nothing is as it seems, and even the small ability we still possess to influence our government is not real, and the people we think we can trust are not genuine. If that is the case, what’s the use of trying?

Fish are in the river, or in the ocean, and sometimes the current is too strong for them to stay put, and yet they still find value in swimming.

That said, IMO we need to know the truth.

It’s worth pursuing, although it can be hard to find.

It is disconcerting to have things presented that are mysterious and unknown and seemingly uncontrollable.

LOL! You just described quantum mechanics, and yes.

It is disconcerting to believe that all that one sees, even the things and people thought to be trustworthy, are not real.

Think of them as real, but fitting into somebody else’s plan.

But if that is truth, then we have to deal with it.

Yup.

Being left in ignorance and in limbo does not serve our purposes.

It takes time to dig out from old messes.

If you can, please clear up any misunderstandings in my questions.

Hopefully this helped. Too tired now! Later!

Thanks so much for your reply. I’ve read it once and am going to have to read and ponder it more in order to try to understand it.

What I’m gathering at first pass is that the fact that the candidates are being encouraged to run is what makes it an OP. Someone wants them to run to suit certain purposes.

I will think more about this. Thanks again.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

You’re most welcome!

Sundance thinks (I disagree) that it is RFK, Jr. running as an independent

Scientists are developing an implant smaller than a crayon that doctors hope will cure cancer in 60 DAYS

Researchers from seven states led by Rice University in Houston, Texas, have developed a three-inch implantable device that works as both a cancer detection system and a drug administration system. 

Doctors determine what drugs a patient needs and then put that drug into the device to be released into their body.

The hybrid advanced molecular manufacturing regulator – or HAMMR – is full of sensors that monitor fast-mutating cancer cells and adjusts the release of immunotherapy drugs based on a patient’s response.

‘This kind of “closed-loop therapy” has been used for managing diabetes, where you have a glucose monitor that continuously talks to an insulin pump. But for cancer immunotherapy, it’s revolutionary,’ said bioengineer Omid Veiseh, a principal investigator on the team.

The new device is one of many new cancer-curing technologies that are being developed. Most recently, a ‘groundbreaking’ pill was found to eradicate all types of solid tumors in an early study.

Immunotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses substances made by the body or in a lab to boost the immune system in the hopes that the body will naturally fight the cancer.

The researchers claim the first-of-its-kind technology will be able to improve immunotherapy outcomes for cancers that are hard to treat, like ovarian and pancreatic, and slash cancer deaths by 50 percent in the US.

Dr Amir Jazaeri, another principal investigator on the team, said the device will help ‘to get a real-time understanding of how our cancer cells are changing so we can change in parallel.’

A minimally invasive procedure allows the device to be implanted into the abdomen. 

It will then constantly monitor a patient’s cancer and adjust their dose of immunotherapy drugs in real-time.

‘This device will communicate wirelessly, potentially with a smartphone, and also be chargeable externally,’ Dr Jazaeri told KHOU11.

‘Essentially how your iWatch charges today,’ Dr Vesieh said.

The implant would enable doctors to react to any changes in the cancer a lot faster than the current system of waiting to get test results and devising a new treatment plan, which can take months.

The team recently received funding for a first-phase clinical trial of the implant to treat recurrent ovarian cancer.

The researchers claim that HAMMR should only be needed for about two months, as they hope it could cure a patient’s cancer within 60 days.

Their goal is to have the device in human trials within five years.

…In another potential cancer breakthrough, earlier this month brain surgeons developed a device the size of a grain of rice they hope could be a breakthrough in treating deadly brain cancers.

The 6mm-long gadget is implanted onto the surface of tumors, where it releases drugs into the masses to shrink or kill them.

When implanted into hard-to-treat brain tumors, the device can deliver multiple different cancer medications all at once. 

It was trialed on six patients with glioblastomas, the lethal brain cancer that killed President Joe Biden’s son, Joseph (Beau) Biden III, and Senator John McCain. 

Their main goal was to determine whether the devices could be safely implanted, which they found it could.

IMO, parasites are probably one of the root causes of many human (and animal) disease conditions, organ damage, and so forth.

On the other hand, I believe there’s a connection between chronic stress and many disease conditions in humans (either caused by, or aggravated by, chronic stress, since this suppresses the immune system.)
One is NOT advocating “living like a Buddhist monk.” Stress is part of life. It’s how the person reacts to, and manages, stress that’s key.

UPDATED: IRS consultant charged in massive leak of taxpayer data

A consultant for the IRS has been charged with leaking to the news media private tax information about former President Donald Trump and thousands of the nation’s wealthiest people.

Charles Littlejohn, 38, of Washington, D.C., stole the files while working as a government contractor and gave them to two news organizations, the Justice Department announced Friday.

The agency doesn’t identify the outlets, though it appears to be referring to ProPublica and the New York Times.

In a court document, the government says the leaks included information about “Public Official A,” which a person familiar with the charges confirmed is Trump.

Littlejohn faces a maximum five years in prison, the Justice Department said.

The charges were filed as a “criminal information” rather than an indictment, which typically means the defendant has entered a plea deal.

The announcement comes more than two years after ProPublica said it had obtained a massive trove of information about the taxes and incomes of wealthy people, many of them well known, going back some 15 years. It published a series of stories showing many of them paid little or nothing in taxes.

The leak astonished many IRS veterans, not just because of its sheer scale, but because tax filings are subject to elaborate safeguards and unauthorized disclosures are rare.

Adding to the mystery was the silence of Biden administration officials, who had said virtually nothing publicly about the leak or how it had happened. Republicans accused Democrats of disclosing the information in hopes of fueling their push in Congress to raise taxes on the rich.

At the same time, one of the people whose records were leaked — Ken Griffin, a prominent hedge fund manager — sued the IRS for failing to protect his tax filings. In court, the administration argued there was no evidence that leak came from a government employee.

In a statement Friday, IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel said: “Any disclosure of taxpayer information is unacceptable. The IRS has put in place new protocols and protections that tightened security, and our aggressive work in this critical area continues in order to protect the tax and financial information of taxpayers.”

Sorry, that’s just not even close to good enough.

I would suggest an escrow company, to provide accountability and to keep private data from incompetent and corrupt government, but that just adds another middleman to be corrupted.

No, the only solution is to eliminate any government agency that can’t be trusted with the private data of Americans.

Sadly and inarguably, that’s all of them.

So shut it down.

All of it.

It’s time for a whole new system of government, one which addresses all of the critical failures of the current system.

This is why all income taxes are abominable — to levy them, one must know about all the income of those taxed…..which means all of your profits and losses, all of the goods and services you produce…..

If you have only customs duties, the government needs to know what’s going on at ports; with excise taxes, the government needs to know about particular goods. Heck, with poll taxes, the government merely needs to know if you’re breathing and voting. But income taxes mean that the government will be riffling around in your underwear for every detail.

I was reading about this at the treehouse this morning. this baffles me…

Littlejohn is charged with one count of unauthorized disclosure of tax returns and return information. If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison.

so he stole thoudands of records but only charged with one count? why not one count for EACH record he stole???

In the age of mrNA vaccines, the exchange of bodily fluids during intimacy with the vaccinated is the new STD.

Article excerpt:

“They knew about the shedding, and they are still trying to cover that up. Nobody’s talking about the shedding. When you talk about shedding, you have to understand that skin-to-skin contact and exhaling are one thing. Sex is a different thing. An STD means that biological material from an infected person gets into another person through sex. When you have sex with someone, even with protection, there’s a certain amount of stuff that goes back and forth. That’s just the nature of sex. When you talk about the biological material that is exchanged during sex, the spike protein is a piece of a virus, it’s even smaller than a virus, and there’s no question that if that’s in your system, it’s going to transmit.”

The point Yours Truly was trying to make is that ANY “vaccinated” person can apparently “shed” or “transfer” elements of the “vaccine” to another person during sex. If it’s two married people who are both “vaccinated”, they’re literally passing the “vaccine” back and forth to each other while engaging in “conjugal activity.”

SD: “So, who will vote for RFK Jr?
ANSWER: Two core groups.
#1) Ron DeSantis supporters. When RdS drops out, his coalition of support, the Never Trump Republicans, will flow to RFK Jr. 

__________________

Okay, assuming Brandon is gone…

The Never-Trump fake Republicons were never going to vote for Trump anyway, so better they go to RFK than Dim-Crim Mystery Candidate.

Because if the choice was Trump or Dim-Crim, most of the Never-Trump traitors would vote Dim-Crim or just not vote at all.

.
.

SD: “#2) Approximately one-third of unregistered, unaffiliated or what we would call “independent” voters. About a third of them.

Independents will fracture into three subsets. Approximately 1/3 supporting Gavin Newsom. Approximately 1/3 supporting Donald Trump. Approximately 1/3 supporting Robert Kennedy Jr.

With DeSantis Republicans and one-third of independent voters, that’s the RFK Jr. coalition.”

__________________

Independents were never a large group.

I suspect most (the majority) registered (or self-identifying) independents now are actually Republican Trump supporters who left the GOP in disgust, but never left Trump. Should be easy enough to find out.

Check how many Independents were registered in 2016 and how those Independents voted in 2016, before lots of Republicans left the GOP and registered as Independents.

That should tell us how the long term Independents normally vote, e.g., 60% Republican, 40% Democrat, or whatever the percentage is.

Then take the current number of registered Independents, and subtract the number of registered Independents in 2016, to find out how many current Independents are likely to be former Republican Trump supporters.

The Independents who are not former Republicans and/or Trump supporters were going to break however they normally break anyway.

The ones who vote for Gruesome aren’t really Independent, they’re just Leftists masquerading as Independents, and were never going to vote for Trump regardless.

The Independents who vote for RFK are probably taking votes that would otherwise go to Trump, but that should be a pretty small slice of the voting pie by that point. If the election is close, they’ll have to decide whether they want to throw the country (and their freedom) away on a wasted vote for RFK that hands the win to Gruesome.

I don’t think it will be that close, I think Trump wins in a landslide, if lawful votes were lawfully counted.

But that doesn’t address the cheating problem. SD seems to think there is some margin of safety beyond which the Dims can’t cheat enough to win, but if they don’t care whether everyone knows they cheated, then I don’t know what (or who) stops them.

The only thing we know for sure, is that we can’t count on law enforcement or the U.S. military to stop enemies foreign OR domestic from stealing the election, or to stop a military invasion of the southern border by 5+ million military aged males.

^^^ This.

The later point being one of many that disprove devolution IMO.

If PDT loves America as much as he indicates, which I believe he does, he would not be secretly in power permitting the massive, nation changing invasion and human trafficking. If he did permit it, he’s not the person we should be supporting. What is happening is disastrous and we will be decades dealing with it.

I can accept he messed up buying into the COVID narrative. It was a whopper of a mistake and he helped sell the fear porn related to it. I cannot go along with an invasion, the criminal rebellion attached or the horrible cultural changes associated with it. It is 100% anti-MAGA. Yes, come to America to follow your dreams that include MAGA. Just do it through the front door after being vetted thoroughly.

I still view PDT as the only choice for POTUS and to lead MAGA at this juncture.

eilert

I also am perplexed about what he is getting at.
Kenedy’s statements don’t even sound Q-ish.
The goal of Q was always to think for yourself and unit instead of divide, which is what SD implies if I understand correctly.
This reference to Q shows that he has no idea what Q is.

Brave and Free

Yeah what’s his (SD) point?
More and more IMO he’s just become controlled opposition.
It’s obvious he’s not the only one writing OT anymore.
Smells like a look squirrel. I don’t see RFK as a c 👀 a plant, he’d have to been MK’d long ago and just recently activated. I agree the big guy isn’t in it this time and grewsome with the Eddie Munster hair is in.

“This reference to Q shows that he has no idea what Q is.”

Sundance never did. He is too unimaginative and boomerish to get Q.

Q-peeps have to think outside the “box.” And we do.

TheseTruths

Yes. And his inserting Q into a narrative in a way that makes no sense indicates that Q is living rent-free in his head. SD protests too much.

SD:

Do you think it is accidental the Kennedy narrative stemmed from the “Q”-Anon origin?

What is he talking about?

mollypitcher5

I don’t know either but SD has been accurate about things many times such as Desantis.
Q was/is a mystery of sorts. We think we know but do we ? I remember Pence and his military pilot son making gestures or something that mimicked a knowledge of Q. Everybody was giddy with surety that he was onboard. Clearly he wasn’t . Did all of the ” Trust so-in-so s ” who turned out to be backstabbers ever get outed by Q or any explanation at all ? Everything cannot be some elaborate 100D chess.

I appreciate a ton of things that Q inspired and truly do believe in WWG1WGA but anymore I don’t know what or who has a lock on what’s happening because if this is “winning” WTH does losing feel like ?

TheseTruths

Q is definitely a mystery. It became clear that everything could not be taken literally. Q even said that the communications were not just for us.

What it did do was unite people around the world in the cause of freedom and wake many up to what has been going on.

As for winning, it’s a long game. I don’t know that Q ever said we are winning right now. If that was said, it would have been in the context of it being a long war that we have the intel and means of winning.

Sundance’s thinking seems static where it concerns Trump, Kennedy and Newsome.

First the big guns have not focused on Newsome. He will be painted as a dirty liberal the same as Biden and has a horrible track record as mayor of SF and gov of CA, that many will and do associate with their loss of fortune. Newsome is going to have to come out and support the open borders and that alone can/should sink him.

Second people will largely go for the person who can bring change to the Biden misery and that has to be either Trump or Newsome because no matter how you shake it out, Kennedy is a long shot and thus a wasted vote in many eyes.

Third what Scott is telling us. 😁

As to the Q thing. Your right! What the heck is he even thinking? It ignores the likelihood that Trump and Kennedy together ginned up Kennedy’s run and did it with a hand shake saying may the best man win. If SD can’t figure out that Q is a Trump asset, no matter whom or what anyone thinks Q is, then he’s totally lost.

I saw a couple of comments over there from people here, but not about Q. 😊

Here are some of the comments about Q. Someone asked this:

Kennedy narrative stemmed from the same Q origin.

Can you be more specific?

A reply from someone who is clueless:

Here’s how I interpret it: Many people here suspect that Q-ANON was an intelligence operation. Also, “Q” mentioned Kennedy in more than one of his cryptic riddles about the future. So the idea of running RFK as an alternative to Trump likely came from the same source that brought us the Q nonsense.

No, Q did not mention Kennedy regarding the future. I just did a search of the Q posts for “Kennedy,” “JFK,” and “RFK,” and there is nothing of the sort.

Another, “Nighthawk”:

“Do you think it is accidental the Kennedy narrative stemmed from the “Q”-Anon origin?” I don’t know what Sundance means by this. Can someone please explain it to me?

“Kent Gatewood”

Q Anon run as a conservative site.

Run by left wing sources in the intelligence community.

My take, but clarification to come?

“Towersilver”

If Q was a real person then he would have been outed long ago. No way that the deep state would not be able to trace Q.

If Q is not a real person then Q must be CIA.

And there you have it. End of story. 🤣

“mac”

goes something like this;

JFK was murdered by the deep state cabal of satanic adredonocroming Babylonian money magic secret bloodline families, ushering in the Illegal Republic.JFK Jr was murdered by his political rival in the NY USA Senate race, HilaryJFK Jr might be alive, by the Q team, and his plane crash was a head fakea group of white hat mil intel types and others with Q clearance (nuclear and above) having been working behind the scenes to bring on the election win of Trump in 2016the loss of 2020 was manufactured by the Q team to show Americans how bad it can get under these bad actors2024 Trump will return and drain the swamp and root out the occultists in the deep stateRFK Jr is in the plan somehow, he knows JFK Jr is still alive incognito in the Q movementThere is a LOT more, but that the core of it

FWIW

General Flynn says openly Q is a CIA counter intel opOperation Trust was setup by the Communists under Lenin as a fake anti-communist organization to capture anti-Bolsheviks and monarchists (so called White Russians), Q could be a similar program

I don’t even know where to begin, so I won’t…😱

By not allowing people who know about Q on his site, SD is allowing this kind of nonsense to proliferate. It feeds into his anti-Q narrative. His site is less about truth than about his ego, IMO.

mollypitcher5

People who know about Q are allowed and welcomed here but it’s still not very clear to me who or what it is and more importantly what the mission is. Is the mission making headway in the present? Right now all that I can hope is that Q is involved in protecting DJT and undermining Globocommunism creep.

TheseTruths

It is said to be a group of less than 10 people who are military connected who are working to take back the country and stop the influence of the NWO here and worldwide.

WWG1WGA has united freedom-loving people around the world, and patriots in America, to have the will to fight and to know that even when we can’t see it, there are people working on our country’s behalf behind the scenes.

Some of what Q said was not intended for us. Its purposes in those instances could have been distraction or disinformation.

Q provided a lot of information about the inner workings of the human trafficking and pedophile rings, and it has been enlightening in a lot of other ways. It is about the Great Awakening that was necessary for the people to know what they’re up against and how to fight it.

IMO, you have to accept that you’re not going to know ALL. It’s not going to provide concrete answers like a mission statement for a corporation, or like a set of instructions that you have to follow exactly. The enemy would see that, and our side’s strategy would be revealed. Instead — and what has been fun to watch — Q has shown some of the ways the Left operates and does secret communications, for example. It shows them that we know, and it has inspired many people to dig deeper.

Wolf has said that it’s a psyop. IMO that can have negative connotations but also positive ones in that we have been allowed to see it and be united around a common cause.

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.

BOMBSHELL! 60% of ActBlue Donations Are Coming From China – Amalgamated Bank & Divvy Involved Too – FEC Lawsuit Pending

“Update into the FEC investigation involving money apparently being laundered through ActBlue, many of which are through the home addresses of ELDERLY people.

Election Watch will file a complaint with the FEC in DC, wait the required 120 days, and then file a lawsuit in the Northern District of Virgina.

Included in that lawsuit , includes evidence that over 60% of the money involved is coming from CHINA!

ActBlue feeds money to other PACS, such as Emily’s List, Color of Change etc…

Much of this information came from Internet tracing, internet traffic patterns looking at where the transactions are coming from & where they’re going to.

There’s also receipts of large amounts of monies on the FEC website to financial processors like Amalgamated Bank, particularly the Washington DC branch of Amalgamated Bank, one of these institutions making many of these transactions.

Divvy is also named; they are a debit card processor out of Utah. There’s large amounts of money going through that.”

I’ve found these donations here in my own zip code. You can, too.

Just go to this web address and do a zip code search:

https://www.fec.gov/data/receipts/individual-contributions/?two_year_transaction_period=2024&min_date=01%2F01%2F2023&max_date=12%2F31%2F2024

You’ll see it pretty quick. Lot’s of people listed as “retired” donating over and over again. Sometimes multiple times in the same month, or even on the same day. Mostly to ActBlue.

For example, I just found a spate of donations on 6/30/2023. ONE PERSON, listed as “not employed” donated at total of $480. But there were twelve entries to get to that total, some as high as $125, and some as low as $5.

This was not the only multiple. There are several, all not employed or retired, all on that date, and all to ActBlue. And we are a small zipcode.

I wonder if a $500 total would trigger something, and they are trying to stay under it?

Perhaps the “magic number” is $601.00 ?

Thank you for the information. Looked up my current zip code and found several people giving to the DCCC and other leftwing entities. One person in particular is listed either as “unemployed” or as “N/A” but there are numerous contributions. Another person is listed as “Retired” or “N/A” and there are numerous contributions.

Aubergine

FRAUD.

phoenixrising

They use the same method across the country for fraudulent voting… been doin it forever.

Happy go lucky

Wow I’m seeing the same, on one day “ Panthea Reid “ donated $1, $2, $5, $10, and $25.

Many, many names are donating every day in multiple donations.

And many donations are earmarked for races and candidates in other states.

Aubergine

Yep. FRAUD.

WSB

Aubergine, I have been following this for years in my own zip code.

Unemployed or retired, giving $1 to $2 per day or week. Yet, then check the parcel access and many of them own property. I think much of this may be an automatic EBT card deduction. Not certain how all of it is laundered.

Many in my area came up from Brooklyn, Hillary Clinton’s headquarters.

Nuts.

I also found my ghost fake registration and can still access it with a birthdate I found on line.

The ones I see are all on the same day, for varying amounts. Like $125, $50, $10, another $125, then $5, and so on. All on one day.

PS Aubergine, if you look up your city council and call-ins or those who take the floor each month, you would be surprised at how orchestrated these meetings are. At least ours is.

I am not even certain of the real name of my ward Rep? His name on his house title does not match what he calls himself. Maybe a brother? His past history seems to be buried. Not even certain where to look for his registration when he ran for office…

Yours Truly: Dr. Kory discusses the {now late) Sen. Feinstein’s health issues in his list of members of the U.S. Congress and of U.S. politicians who developed side effects after being “vaccinated.” In the case of the late Sen. Feinstein, apparently she developed at least two such issues: Encephalitis (brain inflammation); Ramsay Hunt Syndrome. These are in addition to the shingles that she came down with, again after “vaccination.”

https://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2022/01/26/revealed-sen-dianne-feinsteins-husband-partly-owned-a-chinese-company-that-sold-spyware-to-u-s-military/
Peter Schweizer’s new book Red -Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win…
‘ Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s (D-CA) husband Richard Blum was part owner of a Chinese firm that allegedly sold computers with spyware chips to the U.S. military. The military has never been able to calculate how much sensitive data these computers allowed China to steal.
In a total coincidence that could not possibly have been related in any way to Feinstein’s friendship with the tyrants of Beijing, her husband did a great deal of lucrative business with Chinese companies, including entities run by the Communist government and linked to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).’
… “The Pentagon released an audit in 2019 that found the Department of Defense (DoD) still has not formally banned computers from Lenovo, now the largest personal computer company in China, even though the Department of Homeland Security and the Joint Chiefs of Staff Intelligence Directorate have both identified the machines as cyberespionage risks. The U.S. Air Force purchased 1,378 Lenovo products worth $1.9 million as recently as 2018.”

Richard Blum made a fortune off questionable deals, helped with insider info from Chi-Spy DiFi…

Good morning,

Thanks again to everyone stepping up to take my daily slots. Since my brothers have gotten here, I’ve not really been able to do much other than keep up and lurk. Hopefully after the 9th, I can get back at it. It all depends on how long my mother does this Spanish Goodbye, as my sister put it. She’s been moved to an end of life facility, and as of yesterday, still had elimination functions. When that stops, the game changes.

In the meantime, please, keep us in your prayers that this not linger on too much longer.

A former House Democratic IT staffer associated with ex-Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz was sentenced Tuesday to three months of supervised release along with time served after he pleaded guilty last month to lying on a bank loan application.
During Imran Awan’s sentencing hearing in D.C., U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan condemned the “unbelievable onslaught of scurrilous media attacks” and “baseless accusations” that were “lobbed at [Awan] from the highest branches of government,” according to CNN. Chutkan added that Awan had “suffered sufficiently” and “has paid a price that he will continue to pay.”

Before this escalates lets see what happens in the interim.

UK “Hey you blew up our soldiers!”

RU “Were they in Ukraine?”.

UK “Yes, but they were only trainers!”.

RU “Oh, we were just targeting the troops they train, you should explain to solders not to get close them. All of Ukraine is War Zone”.

That’s for starters. The UK can expect to be attacked any where after this, once the next set of bombs get dropped in RU. Escalation will be fast and furious and everyone gets dragged in.

Exclusive — Capitol Sources: Jamaal Bowman Threw Signs Warning Door Was Emergency Only on Floor Before Pulling Fire Alarm

Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) ripped down two signs warning a second floor door in the Cannon House Office Building was for emergency use only before pulling the fire alarm and running out through a different door on a different floor, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.

Multiple sources familiar with the investigation into Bowman pulling the fire alarm in the House, which triggered a full scale law enforcement and emergency services response leading to the evacuation of the building, told Breitbart News exclusively that Bowman ripped two signs down and threw then on the ground first.

The sources familiar with the investigation provided Breitbart News with photographs of the scene of the alleged crime later after the emergency door had been restored after the damage Bowman did to it.
