Have a good day y’all.

(I don’t remember who brought this to a daily in the comments, but thanks.)

And, of course, the obligatory George Carlin:

Per the Boss:

And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:

Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.

Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone

Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.

Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.

Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out, as well as the newest rescue venue.

Auntie DePat’s requests:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

One other vital note:

Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.

JOHN 6:35-40

35Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; he who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst. 36But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe. 37All that the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes to me I will not cast out. 38For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me; 39and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day. 40For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Ahh, yes. The passage that gave Sr. Suzanne Toolin the text for the most easily lampooned (by the pros) song we use. Seriously, there’s no meter involved.

As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.

Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.

And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.

It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.

In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.

Bringing a RAC post forward.

(Ukraine CF aside, which is discussed early in the interview.)

Israel / Iran wise…S U P E R B listen. >>> Sobering assessment. <<<Macgregor’s take is NOT the approved narrative. Including many here QTree.Pretty much mirrors what I have come to believe the past couple days. Some I had not really pondered, but should have.Iran delivered an advance warning. Delivered a solid measured response, using low tech weapons. Iran’s best weapons not deployed. Announced military operations would end, unless Israel (ignorantly) takes new military action against Iran.

G’Nite folks. See ya all in a few hours…

According to couple of Intel Salva posts, the US is trying to convince Iran to accept a moderate attack from Israel so that Israel can save face… 😮

Iran does not seem too taken with the idea…
If Israel responds, Iran threatens ‘severe, extensive and painful’ response – IRANIANS ISSUE NEW THREAT Fernando de Castro Apr. 16, 2024 9:40 pm 833 Comments

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Iran doesn’t care whether Israel “saves face” or not.

That sort of rationale might work where “face” is a cultural imperative, so much so that people will allow their enemies to save face as part of a settlement or even a surrender.

As far as I know neither Arab/Muslim or Persian culture cares that much about it.

pgroup2

I am a little annoyed with using Persian as a synonym for islamist dictatorship located in Iran. Persia has a much longer and deeper history than the islamist terror govt has.

Bannon is most annoying in this regard and he can’t claim ignorance.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Point understood, but in this case I believe my usage is correct; I’m talking about their long-standing culture here…it doesn’t value “face” like they do in east Asia.

pgroup2

Gotcha.

kalbokalbs

Israel unfortunately is losing. Lost momentum pursuing Hamas. Withdrawing. Needed help stopping Iran, after Iran advertised they were going to launch an attack AND chose to not use their top of the line weapons. Learned a lot about Israeli defense set-up, capability.

Here’s a longer-form video about model engines, just to waste pgroup’s time.

pgroup2

Twelve minutes is a bit less than three hours. So no waste of time.  😐 

Valerie Curren

Is this Your club Cthulhu?

cthulhu

Yep, those are the guys. I dropped by that booth for a bit, but didn’t do a lot because I was just up for the day (and it wasn’t the day this was filmed).

Paul Denham, the club president, gets a bit of a speaking part. For his own engines, he basically CNC’s everything — so people give him a hard time about “oh, you whipped up another engine last week”. On the other hand, he frequently is called upon to refurb or spice-up other people’s engines because he is an expert on spark and ignition timing (and also microcontrollers).

There is a smaller, older guy in a plaid shirt lurking around in the booth. That would be Dwight Giles, who is completely amazing. He can make all sorts of materials into any shape, and have them sing and dance the macarena — he made a lot of the fancy wooden boxes that people mount their engines on, and can talk about which metals are brittle or sticky like he knew them when they were in diapers. He can give Paul’s CNC a run for its money because he can make a part by hand faster than someone can clamp the billet into the CNC and touch-off the sides. There is discussion of casting kits — Dwight has done castings of molten metal on his front driveway. At one point, he built his own airplane. One running gag in the club is, “first, I did it the way I thought it should go; then, I tried it the way all the experts seemed to think would work; finally, I just asked Dwight how to do it.”

Valerie Curren

Fascinating stuff. You are blessed AND a blessing to hang w/ such interesting & talented people. Thanks for sharing!

cthulhu

I think so. It’s a group that you can’t help but learn a lot from if you only show up and listen. Besides everything else, they take great joy and pride in what they do, are very generous, and can be extremely funny.

Valerie Curren

& very few wives in view Might just be a bonus!

cthulhu

The only two I saw in the video were Paul’s wife and Mike (publishes a magazine on the subject and expert on 3D printing) Rehmus’ wife. There may have been a couple more, but they didn’t get filmed.

It does seem true that making things, forcing materials to conform to your design, is primarily a male occupation.

Valerie Curren

I watched the video before I posted it, just to make sure I had nothing too identifiable in it. Sadly, although it wasn’t that long ago, some of the members in the video are no longer with us.

Valerie Curren

I missed my edit above LOL

I kept looking for that “sundial” clue LOL no such luck 🙂

Looks like you guys need to figure out some hooks to draw in the younger guys so this won’t become a completely lost art/skill set.

I would guess my son Brandon, who worked as a hydraulics tech at that industrial electronics repair company before becoming a firefighter/EMT, would have some degree of the necessary aptitude. Taking things apart, cleaning up, & repairing many complicated machines has helped him have a pretty good working knowledge of a lot of mechanical stuff.

Being able to build functioning engines at home seems like a necessary “surviving & thriving” after the apocalypse skill set 😉

Valerie Curren

I’m sorry you’ve lost some of your irreplaceable compatriots 🙁 AND glad that you can maintain your anon(ymity) status 😉

Valerie Curren

I recall you mentioning an old timer who could tell just by touch the purity/type of metal, iirc. Was he in that group you showed?

cthulhu

That would be Dwight. In the front picture for the YouSchmoob video of the Xmas party, Larry is on the left and Dwight is on the right. He is also talking at 1:34 saying “race cars”.

Valerie Curren

TY What a wealth of knowledge & ingenuity (no pun intended) is represented by your club!

cthulhu

The US is full of associations of skilled people who freely share specialized knowledge, and this has been an American characteristic for some time — Alexis de Tocqueville commented on it in his 1835/1840 work, “Democracy in America”.

cthulhu

By contrast, the guilds in Europe tended to be more secretive. Sort of the “I’d tell you, but then I’d have to kill you” mindset.

Valerie Curren

Or perhaps you’d have to pay your dues (time, money, etc.) in some type of guild to have the “right” to certain knowledge…

Valerie Curren

 😍 

cthulhu

It’s not just associations, either. I’d driven by http://www.batgundrilling.com/ a bunch of times just running around. One day, I decided to stop off and ask them what that was.

You have to understand, in my normal driving-around Santa Clara configuration, I don’t look like the handsome tentacled eminence you see in fantasy artwork……I look like a bum.

I don’t sound like a bum, and can ask intelligent questions on a wide variety of topics, but there is no initial reason to take me seriously.

But I dropped in and was given the tour, explanations, and allowed to examine examples of their work. I could have set up a competitive shop the next week — and they might still have told me “trade secrets” over dinner the week after. America is very weird that way.

Valerie Curren

America is very weird that way.”

Well maybe it’s just a bit of potentially friendly competition, like I Dare You to Do It Better!  😎

Why are potential jurors not PROSECUTED for lying about their bias?

What could be a more fundamental miscarriage of justice, then to be a potential juror who has a hate-grudge against a defendant, and lies about it under oath during voir dire?

Why is that not a crime punishable by at least a year in prison, and a $100K fine?

It’s not like TPTB don’t know how use fear of punishment to compel compliance.

It’s the only thing they actually do.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Not saying it will actually happen, but I doubt they could have been prosecuted today even if someone wanted to do it.

pat frederick

i think this only allows the other potential jurors to scrub their social media accts and let someone even worse in

TheseTruths

Right. I also am not sure that this was a “huge win” for Trump, given headlines I’ve seen about the jurors already chosen.

I’ll be looking for the moment when VSGPOTUSDJT flies Michael Cohen’s brother in from Sicily and puts him in the audience while Pentangeli Cohen is supposed to testify.

Valerie Curren

What is the brother connection here? I must have missed that before…

cthulhu

In Godfather II, Frank Pentangeli (“Frankie Five Angels”) is going to go state’s evidence against the Corleone family. Michael flies Frank’s brother over from Sicily to watch his testimony. When Frank realizes that his family name would be mud in Sicily, he recants all his prior testimony.

Valerie Curren

Ah thank you. I haven’t seen the Godfather in decades so most of the plot points are quite murky, beside the horse’s head & the priest absolving the one brother for the murder of the other…

Tonawanda

That made me laugh!

So there are what, 8+ million native New Yorkers in NYC?

This should be a very teachable moment.

I would be watching very closely to see how effective this 500-invader protest is.

If it works, if the alien invaders get what they want, then the people of NYC might consider calling for a 4-million native New Yorker protest.

See how city hall likes them apples.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Right Wing Media see traffic plummet…(From yesterday)

https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64385

Apparently this site thinks that to be properly right wing, you must be anti-Israel.

cthulhu

Speaking of which, it’s probably a safe bet that nuking the centrifuges would really mess with your isotope separation…..but what would it do to your previously separated stockpiles?

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Those previously separated stockpiles must not amount to much, since they’ve yet to build a bomb (at least we think they haven’t).

No tests. And I’m sure Israel would know if there were.

ON THE OTHER HAND, a U-235 bomb is so ridiculously simple to construct (once you have the separated isotopes, which is hard to do) we didn’t even bother testing one before using it on Hiroshima. Maybe Iran has them but never tested them.

I guess it depends on how you define “used” when it’s a bomb.

Over at Sylvia’s, they talk about the pair of nuclear bombs that accidentally got dropped on North Carolina in 1961. The one that is still there would probably qualify as “used”.

Valerie Curren

Anywhere near where you’re allegedly moving? Yikes!

cthulhu

Well, near as being in the same state, yes….

Again, the southeast has a geological story that drives human stories. There is the Atlantic Coastal Plain, which is flat-as-a-pancake and generally mud and can swallow damaged nuclear bombs; then there is the piedmont, at the foot of the mountains, where the hills rivers and streams provided water power to drive textile mills and furniture factories; and finally the mountains with mining and trade.

I’m looking to move to the piedmont.

Valerie Curren

Were you the one who expounded on this concept a while back about how typical transportation was driving the expansion into the interior of the country & how those demarcations of that geological story had a significant impact on when & where major population centers arose? It’s a fascinating thought process such that if the streamlined version could be found would potentially make a nice addition to certain family history tales, helping explain when, where, & why our ancestors chose to be in a specific place. For instance, some of my forebears travelled a day’s journey by oxcart from the town to set up their homestead, or so my dad said…& I speculate that they were there in Michigan, having come from NY sometime after the Erie Canal opened up, facilitating such travel…

cthulhu

Possibly. It’s not that complicated once you see it.

Every time you change transportation, you need warehouses and insurance agents, accountants and lawyers, shipping facilities and logistics managers. This has been true throughout history. So you get cities.

In the South, only certain places have deepwater ports — Charleston, SC; Norfolk, VA; and Wilmington, NC are examples. They all have cities.

You can paddle around the Atlantic Coastal Plain on rafts and barges — it’s very flat and the waters move slow.

When you get to the “Fall Line” where the Piedmont meets the Plain, you have waterfalls — even if the first one is five inches tall, a barge cannot cross it. So you have a row of cities where things are exchanged between barges and wagons. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Seaboard_Fall_Line

There is a more subtle line of cities where horse-drawn wagons switch cargoes with mule trains to traverse narrow mountain paths.

When railroads and interstates were built, the cities were already there — so, even when there are no barges or wagons, the effects of geography remain.

Valerie Curren

Yes, this is the line of thinking that I recall, so if you didn’t share it before you clearly understand & can articulate the concepts quite well. It’s a really good “big picture” view that I cannot always necessarily see for being lost in the weeds with a magnifying glass, a book, or a boy 😉 😉

kalbokalbs

~Twenty like incidents dropped / lost nukes on land and sea.

As the unexpected too commonly happens, the USG quit flying real nukes. (My understanding.)

Random note, I saw an ad on Gab for “being your own bank” w/ Silver coins that have a deep gouge in them to allow for easy division. Do you think this is a potentially viable bartering option, like that company claims…Let me see if I can find that image…

cthulhu

When pirate movies talk about “pieces of eight”, they had a similar thing going on.

Valerie Curren

Easily divided into 8 parts…I hope?

cthulhu

Yup. even the coins you picture have guide marks at 1/8 points.

Valerie Curren

Yes but they don’t look like it’s as clean of a potential split as the 1/4 marks would yield. I guess “honest” scales would still be in order…

cthulhu

If you were buying something for 9-7/8 pieces of silver, you’d likely pay over 10 and get 1/8 back in change…..and if it were a “fat” 1/8 or a “skinny” 1/8, it wouldn’t be that much of a big deal.

Valerie Curren

“Me like fat one!” quoting the cannibal chick enamored with Curley on a 3 Stooges short 😉

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

It’s still possible to buy slices of an 8 real coin. Or for that matter regular coins of the lower values (4 reales, 2 reales, 1 real, and even 1/2 real).

The 8 reales was the immediate predecessor to our dollar; we called them dollars in colonial times (the word descended from “thaler” a silver coin of the same size from central Europe) and that’s what people meant by “dollars” until we started minting them ourselves…with a standard based on an average 8 reales coin.

Our constitution explicitly mentions “dollars” in the Bill of Rights (7th amendment), which was passed and ratified before we had even written the basic law for United States coinage.

The Spanish milled dollar (as collectors call it today) was divisilbe into eight pieces, and it took decades before people in some parts of America (e.g. New York) actually thought in dimes instead of eighths.

And if you remember as a kid when stock prices were quoted in fractions of a dollar…the minimum increment was an eighth of a dollar.

Valerie Curren

& I thought “2 bits” was equal to a quarter. “Shave & a haircut…2 bits” is a ditty/rhythm learned as a child. So if that is correct then 8 bits would equal a dollar…

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yeah the single real was often called a “bit”.

Valerie Curren

Oh real-ly 😉

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yes, Cuppa.

Valerie Curren

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Valerie Curren

Hopefully he’s got thicker skin & is just busy IRL & will be back soon.

pgroup2

The problem is small but it’s still a problem: the lack of milling on two edges of each split piece.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Likely overpriced, AND four broken quarters probably won’t be worth as much as an intact coin.

If you go for this or similar things (there are chocolate-bar like bullion ingots too for sale), don’t break it apart until you have to, because the financial apocalypse has hit and dollars are toilet paper no one wants.

As for two edges being smooth after cracking one of these, that’s not a worry; people will be able to tell if the broken edge has been filed, versus left jagged and rough. There will be bevels and probably a ridge that will look like irregular sawteeth under a magnifier.

I guess I should have said precipitation 😉

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

No worries…but when you visit you can watch videos of them clearing the road around the rim for the season. The snow is many feet deep and it seems hazardous…and ultimately pointless, a month later it’s all gone anyway.

Valerie Curren

Gotta get those tourists & their baksheesh ASAP 😉

I think I mentioned before that when we took our honeymoon in Estes Park, CO in early June that the snow had only been cleared the week before we got there, which is actually Worse than Michigan. Yet Hubby still likes to quote one of the pastors from our Northern MI church when describing MI’s weather, “9 months of Winter & 3 months of tough sledding”  😅

My son Brandon Finally got his actual firefighter badge yesterday (he earned it a while back but Detroit is well Detroit) after his First official house fire that day, thankfully an abandoned home. Hearing the sirens in the above video makes me think that even approaching that inferno would be Extremely Dangerous for Anyone…

Looks like a minor software glitch, probably nothing to worry about.

Shut it off, wait 30 seconds, turn it back on and let the system reboot.

Should be just fine 👍😁

Will a false bird flu pandemic be the end of animal agriculture and usher in food rationing?

The overhyped threat of a human bird flu pandemic is a hoax to “reset” our food system argues Alexis Baden-Mayer. As we’ve mentioned in previous articles if bird flu were to suddenly become transmissible from person to person, we can suspect laboratory research and engineering of a virus as the culprit.

Thank you for this. It confirms what Yours Truly presented on the board here a week or so ago.
The goals, IMO, regarding this “new strain of bird flu that can jump to cattle and then to humans”, are:
One: Continued population control of humans (since the COVID-19 disaster didn’t “do the job”), PLUS control of poultry and cattle populations AND farmers, ranchers, etc.
Two: Eventual outlawing of ANY AND ALL ability / freedom for people to own and raise poultry, goats, etc., on their OWN PRIVATE PROPERTY.
Three: More “mandated vaccinations” for humans -p– this time, with “teeth” added in terms of “forced door-to-door vaccinations”, in terms of “isolation camps” for those who refuse to take the jabs, and prohibitions on people using alternative medicine to avoid getting this “new bird flu.”

Valerie Curren

YW PAVACA. Those are some very grim predictions but pretty clearly what the handwriting on the wall wants to be saying. God help us, literally!

i love log homes–we live in one.
what is the middle post for? it doesn’t support the roof (it doesn’t go up past the door frame). and it’s larger than the door framing on the right side of the door. and that dark spot coming from the bottom of the post is too short to be a shadow so what’s that?

Valerie Curren

I wonder if you’ve discovered an AI glitch, similar to how it has a hard time rendering fingers…hmmm

Is your log home w/ peeled logs or more rustically with bark intact? I love the look of log homes too & big stone fireplaces!

peeled which we have stained and treat every 5 years.

So here’s this…… I have traveled past this property for decades and never really paid much attention to it. I knew what was there and never thought much about it until about a year ago when I noticed a lot of action on the property. Lots of graffiti and the beginnings of a demolition project. Still passing it by so many times and then one day I noticed a bunch of large American flags and a (well established) Patriot demolition company smashing the building into the dust, its all gone except for this beautiful and very striking tree, maybe now a tree of life. Lots of symbolism here and certainly a lot of controversy knowing that I am standing in the middle of what was a former abortion clinic for this picture.

Your metaverse identity will be central to daily life: WEF report (3/2024)

“Virtual voodoo dolls, autonomous avatars & digital doppelgangers will be your behavior-profiling passports in the metaverse: perspective

Your metaverse identity, with its digital ID, biometric data capture, and behavior profiling, will be central to your every day life, according to a World Economic Forum (WEF) report.

“Metaverse identity” is a relatively new concept that the WEF and Accenture describe in great detail in a new 48-page report entitled “Metaverse Identity: Defining the Self in a Blended Reality.”

According to the report:

“As people spend more time exploring, playing and socializing in digital experiences, a person’s metaverse identity will be central to their day-to-day life as well as to the way they express their personal identity.”

But what exactly do the unelected globalists mean by “metaverse identity?”

“A person’s metaverse identity will be central to their day-to-day life”
METAVERSE IDENTITY: DEFINING THE SELF IN A BLENDED REALITY, WEF, MARCH 2024
____
Metaverse identity encompasses three components:

Representation: including personal, social and role identity, be it through avatars, pseudonyms or other digital expressions

Data: capturing the intricate web of knowledge about individuals generated by metaverse supporting hardware and software
Identification (ID): be it through driver’s licenses, government-issued IDs, passports, birth certificates, attestations, labels, or usernames and passwords

According to the report, “Metaverse identity broadens ‘identity’ as it is known today and combines it with the digital underpinnings of the internet. It is a multi-layered construct of an individual or entity, including everything from representation to data and identification.”

With these three components, identity in the metaverse “connects and anchors a person to the physical and virtual world.”

rest of article & images

___
Let’s break them down, starting with representation.

“The notion of ‘representation’ is not just about pixels and graphics; it’s a reflection of societal values, inclusivity and the human desire for authenticity […] Representational design choices extend to the design of digital entities – from embodied virtual agents to non-embodied virtual assistants”
METAVERSE IDENTITY: DEFINING THE SELF IN A BLENDED REALITY, WEF, MARCH 2024

Representation has to do with how you present and express yourself in the metaverse, whether it’s a realistic likeness of yourself or an abstract, creative, or artistic version.

The authors say that, “These expressions may extend to include words, actions, behaviors and mannerisms,” so there is an element of behavior profiling going on in the representation category, which we will also see in the data capture and identification categories.

Representation in the metaverse will also take on a new meaning with the introduction of digital entities that act on your behalf.

According to the report, “Digital entities may represent humans, objects, systems or abstract concepts, and are capable of varying degrees of interaction, autonomy and behavior within digital experiences […] They are capable of mimicking human communication and may be used as sales assistants, corporate trainers, social media influencers and more.”

Like non-player characters (NPCs) in videogames, these digital doppelgangers attempt to mimic human behavior.

And like a virtual voodoo doll, if something goes wrong with your digital entity, it could spill over into your personal life in the real world.

“While digital entities can offer innovative interactions and functionalities within the metaverse, they may commit real-world harms,” the report cautions, adding, “The ability to manipulate or create misinformation through digital entities – such as chatbots and photoreal avatars – raises ethical and security concerns.”
____
Now let’s dig into the data category.

“Identity goes beyond ID, like a passport or driver’s license. Metaverse identity includes data points”
METAVERSE IDENTITY: DEFINING THE SELF IN A BLENDED REALITY, WEF, MARCH 2024

The data category of metaverse identity is aimed at gathering and analyzing data to make inferences about you, and it will be used to predict your behavior, thanks to AI and Machine Learning.

“Paired with artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) models that can analyze a person’s interactions, movements and preferences further generates identity,” the report reads.

“Whether these (inferred) data points are capturing a person’s current activities, predicting their next action or future preferences, these data-based breadcrumbs provide information into one’s identity.

“These attributes may influence the way the virtual environment responds to an individual, and outsiders perceive an individual or entity.”

This data aspect of metaverse identity is important to unelected globalists who are obsessed with manipulating human behavior and controlling what people think and do.

“There is a risk that governments could use aggregated inferred data for surveillance, monitoring dissidents, or suppressing certain groups without their active consent”
METAVERSE IDENTITY: DEFINING THE SELF IN A BLENDED REALITY, WEF, MARCH 2024
____
Inferred data, “now aided by AI/ML, can examine seemingly unrelated behaviors, actions and choices to draw meaningful conclusions about a person’s preferences, background and intentions,” according to the report.

Once you know intent, whether of an individual or an unelected globalist think tank, then it becomes a lot easier to predict what they’ll do or say next, even if they deceptively try to mask their true intentions.

And, “While this data is collected to enhance the person’s experience, it could also be analyzed to make inferences as to their real-world identity or preferences and used for targeted advertising or other purposes without their consent.”

Making inferences for “other purposes” without the user’s consent is what defense and intelligence agencies are after in the metaverse.

A recent RAND Corporation report suggests as much with respect to the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) looking to spy on users in the metaverse, stating, https://gab.com/emoji/1f449-1f3fb.svg“As DHS grapples with emerging challenges by monitoring and analyzing users’ activity in metaverses, it should undertake legal and ethical reviews of what information is collected and how it is managed.”
_____
Now, we shall move on to the identification category.

“The concept of identity is contextual, flexible, complex and fluid […] Identity extends into the intricacies of an individual’s behaviors, actions and choices”
METAVERSE IDENTITY: DEFINING THE SELF IN A BLENDED REALITY, WEF, MARCH 2024

Perhaps the most confusing part of metaverse identity is the identification or ID aspect because digital ID and digital identity are terms that are often used interchangeably, including by yours truly, but they are quite different.

Identification is about identifying, verifying, and authenticating who someone is.

Identity on the other hand, “consists of layered aspects of cultural heritage, ethnicity, age, professional and social roles, hobbies, gender identification, sexual orientation and much more,” according to the report.

Now that we’ve taken care of the distinction between the two, your digital ID will be your passport to the metaverse, and like with a passport, there will be certain areas that you will not be able to access.

According to the report, “Similar to today’s traditional identification systems – like passports and driver’s licenses – IDs may evolve to include unique avatar designs, new body-based attestations or unique virtual signatures that validate one’s existence and grant access to specific realms or activities.”

To illustrate how digital ID plays into digital identity, the authors say, “Forms of ID – such as passports and government IDs – formalize an individual’s identity; additionally, these can serve as credentials or means of authenticating and verifying individuals across physical and digital spaces.”

“Metaverse identity is integral to future internet interactions”
Metaverse Identity: Defining the Self in a Blended Reality, WEF, March 2024
____
Now that we’ve gone through the three components that make up metaverse identity, what are some of the potential drawbacks?

For starters, the report says, “There is a risk that governments could use aggregated inferred data for surveillance, monitoring dissidents or suppressing certain groups without their active consent.”

Your metaverse identity can include your real-time biometrics, such as pupil dilation, heart rate, and brainwaves, so that companies and governments can infer how you are feeling and reacting to their goods, services, or policies.

Historian Yuval Noah Harari spoke of this same technology falling into the hands of dictators at the 2020 WEF Annual Meeting in Davos. There, he said:

“Just imagine North Korea in 20 years where everybody has to wear a biometric bracelet, which constantly monitors your blood pressure, your heart rate, your brain activity 24 hours a day.

“You listen to a speech on the radio by the ‘Great Leader,’ and they know what you actually feel — you can clap your hands and smile, but if you’re angry, they know you’ll be in the gulag tomorrow morning.”

Having a biometric data capturing device attached to your body that knows what you’ll do before you do it raises serious ethical questions about how the data is collected, where that data goes, and who has access to some of the most intimate details of your life.

For the past few years, Meta has been working on Project Aria, which combines augmented reality with artificial intelligence to create realistic 3D renderings of people, places, and things, including living spaces.

When Mark Zuckerberg explained his vision for the metaverse at Connect 2021, he highlighted how Project Aria could map a person’s apartment, including everything in it (see video below).

(1 hour, 17 min)


____
Imagine how valuable that information would be to companies — knowing which products you use, which ones they think you’ll want, and how you organize your living space, so they can manufacture extremely personalized ads.

What could insurance companies do with that data? How would landlords react?

Now, think about how governments, intelligence agencies, and law enforcement would love to get their hands on that type of data.

With the data collected from someone wearing a pair of AR glasses, who needs facial recognition, geolocation tracking, or contact tracing when governments and corporations can see what you see, hear what you hear, and know where you and what you are doing in real-time?”

Exclusive – MTG on Mike Johnson Speakership: ‘It’s Over – He’s Just the Only One Who Hasn’t Acknowledged It’
The Hastert Rule, named for former Speaker Denny Hastert, is a Republican principle that holds that a GOP Speaker will not bring a proposal to the floor that does not have the support of at least the majority of the majority. Johnson has repeatedly violated the Hastert rule, on spending and on other major proposals — and he routinely relies on Democrats to pass bills through a mechanism called a “suspension of the rules.”

https://vigilantnews.com/post/dr-peter-mccullough-sounds-the-alarm-on-covid-vaccine-induced-turbo-cancer/

“The COVID vaccines have at least three mechanisms by which they could start a cancer, or they could promote an existing cancer.”

1.) The messenger RNA from COVID-19 injections could severely disrupt the body’s ability to repair damaged DNA. This breakdown in basic cell processes could lead to uncontrolled mutations, greatly increasing the risk of developing cancer.

2.) The S2 segment of the spike protein, delivered specifically through the vaccine, is implicated in suppressing key tumor suppressor proteins such as P53 and BRCA. This suppression effectively disarms the body’s primary defenses against cancerous cell growth, paving the way for tumors to flourish unchecked.

3.) The formulation of mRNA vaccines includes DNA process-related impurities that could carry proto-oncogenic properties. “And the fragments that are detected are the SV40 enhancer, promoter, and origin of insertion, as well as antibiotic resistance fragments that are used in the manufacturing process.”

“So, in summary, the COVID vaccines have at least three mechanisms by which they could start a cancer, or they could promote an existing cancer, and it may occur more rapidly because tumor defense systems are taken down,” said Dr. McCullough.
“That’s what we call turbo cancer.”

pat frederick

is this true??? (saw at Marica’s)

Valerie Curren

I’ve thought about this a lot.

As a practical matter, how would a President go to jail?

The Secret Service is in charge of their security. NO ONE else can be in charge of securing the President. Even in solitary confinement, the head of the prison is in charge.

The Secret Service couldn’t allow it. Their traditions and egos would never tolerate it. They don’t hate Trump, because they KNOW him, personally. How many stories have we heard about how Trump knew all about the “average guy” who worked for him? Asked about their families, jobs, ideas, etc.? They LOVE him.

I agree with this guy. There is no way Trump goes to jail.

Trump knows this. It’s why he doesn’t give a shit. He pretends to go along when it suits him, and toys with them by violating their orders when it doesn’t.

TheseTruths

Regarding Trump being sent to jail, one article said that an alternative for him would be to confine him in a hotel or something so he would still have SS protection. I don’t know, but I do know that they’d like nothing better than to lock him up and to shut him up. Then they will try to convince people that someone like that should not be voted for.

Aubergine

I’m sure they can come up with “alternatives,” but they will only look stupid.

There’s no precedent at all for a hotel as incarceration. They could do house arrest, but he can still have virtual rallies and everything else.

Whatever they do, they only look desperate.

kalbokalbs

House arrest. Virtual rallies, in multiple cities at the same time. Including folks outside Merchan’s home, Bragg’s home…and any other maroon persecuting Trump.

NEW ARTICLE: FENBENDAZOLE and CANCER Part 2 – Treating Turbo Cancer – 10 new studies released in 2023-2024 (also Mebendazole) – suggested PROTOCOLS for COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Induced Turbo Cancers

Last year, in October, I wrote one of the most popular articles on FENBENDAZOLE and Cancer Treatment ever published, which went viral Internationally, with millions of views.

Joe Rogan @joerogan
read my article on his podcast!

After the article, I was flooded with 1000s of questions, not about mechanisms of Fenbendazole action against cancer, but about protocols, doses, formulations.

How do you use Fenbendazole for Cancer?

What is Mebendazole? (the expensive, FDA Approved version of Fenbendazole)

This article is the practical approach that addresses all of those questions.

First, I give you 10 peer reviewed studies published since my last article (2023-2024) that look at repurposing Fenbendazole, Mebendazole, Albendazole and Parbendazole for cancer.

We get it. This family of anti-parasitic drugs called “Benzimidazoles” are fantastic for cancer and big pharma is rushing to repurpose these drugs for particularly aggressive cancers like colon cancers or brain cancers.

But they’re focusing not on Fenbendazole but on the others. WHY? Follow the money.

Fenbendazole is dirt cheap.
Mebendazole (Enverm) has skyrocketed to over $400 per dose
Albendazole (Albenza) has skyrocketed to over $190 per dose

I want to highlight one of these 10 new peer reviewed studies that prove Fenbendazole (and its more expensive variants) works against cancer, because there is an additional KEY element there.

(2023 Jun, Mukherjee et al) – Ketogenic diet as a metabolic vehicle for enhancing the therapeutic efficacy of mebendazole and devimistat in preclinical pediatric glioma

“This study investigated the influence of nutritional ketosis on the therapeutic action of mebendazole (MBZ) and devimistat (CPI-613) against the highly invasive VM-M3 glioblastoma cells in juvenile syngeneic p20-p25 mice”

maximum therapeutic benefit of mebendazole and CPI-613 on tumour invasion and mouse survival occurred only when the drugs were administered together with a ketogenic diet (KD)

Let me repeat that once again:

“Maximum benefit of mebendazole against cancer occurred only when it was administered with a KETOGENIC DIET”.

You must starve cancer cells of glucose.

Now let’s get to DOSING:

I propose the following FENBENDAZOLE DOSING:

LOW DOSE (222mg/day) (3 days on, 4 days off)
– Cancers in remission
– Strong family history, genetic predisposition
– prophylaxis
– Original Joe Tippens Protocol (with Curcumin 600mg/day, CBD Oil 25mg/day, Vitamin E 800 IU/day)

MEDIUM DOSE (222mg/day, 6 days a week)
– Starting dose for most non-mRNA induced tumors
– weight < 200lb

HIGH DOSE (444mg/day, 6 days a week)
– Most COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Turbo Cancers
– Aggressive Cancers
– Stage 4
– Weight 200+ lb

VERY HIGH DOSE (888mg/day or 1000mg/day, 6 days a week)
– Extensive metastatic disease
– Extremely poor prognosis

Highest dosing I’ve seen is 30-50mg/kg/day for 5 days, based on the “Merck Manual”, however there is no evidence in the literature for this high dose. Still, a few claim to have taken this dose without side effects.

Fenbendazole can elevate liver function tests, so it would be a good idea to have a family doctor monitor those with regular blood work.

WHAT ABOUT MEBENDAZOLE?

This is the FDA Approved (for humans), more expensive version of Fenbendazole that big pharma likes better

This is going to be a significantly more expensive option and may be out of reach for some people.

No one talks about dosing of Mebendazole for Cancer, however, published literature suggests this:

LOW DOSE (100mg/day)
– Cancers in remission
– Strong family history, genetic predisposition
– prophylaxis

MEDIUM DOSE (200mg/day)
– Starting dose for non-mRNA cancers
– Several studies in humans have used this dose successfully for metastatic disease but disease eventually progresses, so it doesn’t seem to be strong enough dose

HIGH DOSE (500mg-1500mg/day)
– There is a Clinical trial for brain cancer that is using this dose regimen
– mRNA Turbo Cancer cases should probably start here
– Aggressive cancers
– Stage 4 disease

VERY HIGH DOSE (4g/day)
– safety established in 2021 study by Mansoori et al in a Phase 2 Clinical Trial for Gastrointestinal Cancer
– right now, there is no regimen in the literature with a higher dose than this

COMBINATION WITH IVERMECTIN:

If I was diagnosed with mRNA Induced Turbo Cancer, I would strongly consider a Combination Protocol with starting doses of Ivermectin (1mg/kg/day) and Fenbendazole (444mg/day)

Thought Experiment:

Imagine you are a Canadian doctor, with 8 COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines because you listened to Dr.Theresa Tam @CPHO_Canada
and the Canadian Medical Association @CMA_Docs
, and because of their incompetence and malice, you’ve just been diagnosed with a Stage 4 Colon Cancer with metastatic disease in the liver, lungs and bones. You probably have 2-3 months to live, or less. You are going to want to look at a COMBINATION PROTOCOL with the highest doses of Ivermectin (2mg/kg/day) and Fenbendazole (888mg/day or 1000mg/day) you can tolerate and have your doctor monitor your liver and kidney function tests.

My goal with these articles, is to provide as much clear information as possible for someone dealing with cancer or mRNA Induced Turbo Cancer.

This article deals with the practical approach to using Febendazole or Mebendazole with a reasonable dosing schedule or approach to figuring out what dose to try.

It is important to arm yourself with medical knowledge that cancer doctors (Oncologists) will simply not give you, because they either don’t know it, or they won’t risk their careers to save you.

If you care at all about cancer, you don’t want to miss this ground-breaking article! Big pharma is really going to hate this one (I expect 100s of bots to swarm my account within 24 hours)

And if anyone can get me on Joe Rogan’s Podcast, so I can help him pronounce “FENBENDAZOLE” properly, as well as other medical terms that he struggled with, I’d really appreciate it!

Paging Linda.

Though, Linda likely has this information.

Bookmarked and downloaded information.

Valerie Curren

Linda

I totally disagree with his dosing for Fenben. 222 mg per day is the dose you would give a 10 pound dog. It’s not going to do the job for most people. My dog’s vet told me she could take up to 1200 mg safely and she was a 50 pound dog. Our cancer group uses a dosage of up to 2000 mg/day split into 2 doses. I’ve personally been taking 1500 mg/day for many months. After just 3 months of that, my tumor was only half as big.

Everyone always trots out the Joe Tippens story where he only took 222 mg per day and cured his cancer. But they forget to mention that he was on an immunotherapy trial at the same time. They’ve found that Fenben works synergistically with some cancer drugs. But for most people, 222 is way too low a dose to do much good.

Linda

Also, when you have cancer and are taking Fenben, you really need to take a couple of supplements with it. When you’re on a higher dose of Fenben, if you don’t take something for liver support, your liver numbers are going to go up. We take tudca or milk thistle twice a day 1/2 hour before a meal. If you have a hormone driven cancer, like breast cancer or prostrate cancer, you shouldn’t take milk thistle. Most of us take tudca.

Also, when you’re on Fenben (or ivermectin for that matter) your cancer tumors will start breaking up. You need to get those fragments out of your system. We use high dose serrapeptase twice a day to flush it out of the system. It has to be taken on an empty stomach with nothing else. I take mine right before bed and an hour before breakfast.

Oh it’s completely gone now. I had a lumpectomy right after I saw that measurement. So unless there’s still some bit of cancer floating around, I’m cancer free. I’m staying on the protocol until the 1 year mark just to make sure. Then I’ll start cutting it down. But I’ll probably always be on Fenben and IV to some extent.

Derivatives, folks. That was a good post by DePat for an awakening as to what is happening worldwide. One giant Ponzi scheme minus the carve out of BRICS+ coming soon to a theater near you.

kalbokalbs

Dang sure an eye opener. Including for the likes of me, who now only partakes in, “stuff”. If I can’t see it, touch it, ain’t placing my money there. Life long lesson learned back in the 2008 financial debacle.

Link for those who may have missed it, closed the window by mistake, like I did.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Many derivatives are simply options. You pay for the option, and the most you can lose is the money you paid for the option. That’s why they are so popular, unlike futures where you can lose the total value of the item the future is in (if long) or even more than that (if short, and it suddenly more than doubles in value). So…if Goldman Sachs has $50T in options out there they paid $1/2 T for…the most they can lose is the $1/2T. (Whether that alone would be enough to kill them is another question entirely.) He didn’t say they were options…but he also didn’t say they weren’t options. Probably a mix.

Speaking of which gold was totally stable yesterday, moving an insignificant amount, but is down 6 bucks or so today. (Gold has no “options” that I am aware of, only a futures market.)

Robert Baker

What you say is true but GS is probably a net seller of options where the losses can be several X the premium. On the other hand they should have a well tested risk algorithm in place. It all depends, as it always does, on how greedy the firm is.

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.

Influencing juries swings both ways! Take that, you New York lawfare a-holes!

“The Bodega and Small Business Group (BSBG), which represents thousands of bodegas in New York City, has issued a statement backing President Donald J. Trump, slamming local District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and hitting out at local politicians who have ignored the widespread criminality occurring in the city.

“The Bodega and Small Business Group (BSBG)… is honored to host President Donald J. Trump at the Blue Moon bodega in Manhattan where Jose Alba was arrested for simply defending himself and his business against a convicted felon, the statement began.

“The Manhattan DA, Alvin Bragg, only backed off after an angry public campaign from store owners and their supporters united behind Mr. Alba and his Constitutional rights. The Bodega and Small Business Group appreciates President Trump’s support on behalf of tougher enforcement for retail thieves that are making our stores more dangerous and less profitable at the same time.

is this THE bag that the nuclear football is in? i dunno…above my pay grade…lol. but they have a picture at the end of the video that looks the same…make of it what you will

TheseTruths

I found the pic that is shown at the end of the video, with the officer carrying two bags, but it won’t post here.

The tag says “Lt. Colonel Teddy Boyd.” Apparently it belongs to, or was assigned to, the man carrying it. The nuclear football is the other piece of luggage.

In the video, the luggage the man is carrying has a similar tag, probably with his name on it. It is not the nuclear football, which does not have tags like that.

(Not aimed at you, Pat.) These people make me sick with their arrogance steeped in ignorance. “Bulma2.0” says, “If you know, you watch for the little things. Like little black bags.”
Ooh, so perceptive (/sarc) with exactly the wrong interpretation. We’re supposed to think that “Bulma2.0” is so keen that she(?) spotted something that no one else has seen, and that the Trump team left it in plain sight, probably as a sign to patriots? Give me a break! 😡😡😡

“Fletch17” says “IYKYK” (if you know, you know).
All I know is that “Fletch17” is promoting false, idiotic theories, and misleading people in the process. It took me about 5 minutes to research this. Those two could have done the same. I find these people and their theories detestable. They are ignoring the truth in order to promote a lie. They should be shunned, IMO.

Is that supposed to be proof that Trump is really POTUS right now? Has anyone thought this through? I’ll answer that: No, they haven’t. Unfortunately, at times that has been evident here as well.

Discernment. I once heard a senior pastor/priest admonish people to pray daily for discernment and wisdom. It is excellent advice, especially when people who are supposedly on our side are inundating us with this asininity.

Thanks. Maybe the bag is related to this:

https://wrightusa.com/en/Articles/12-Fast-Facts-About-the-Secret-Service

When traveling, the president is never more than 10 minutes from a trauma center and agents carry bags of the president’s blood in case a transfusion is needed.

Trump is not the president, but (speculating) maybe it applies to former presidents, and maybe especially when they are running again.

The ever present ambulance likely carries all the medical stuff Trump may need, short of a hospital.

On Tuesday the 15th it was reported by RAC that the Ukrainians were a wee bit twitter-pated on some event at the front that might have taken out a big wig in the Ukrainian military…..I came across an article that there had been an attack on a “camp” near Kharkov.

On Wednesday the attack was named to have been Chuguev where an urgent blood collection was made for the wounded and it was alleged this was a camp of Ukrainian soldiers who were at the back of the front line.

Today, Thursday…There was a Russian bom dropped on an evacuation group of the Ukrainians near the railway in the Ocheretino area.

There were also powerful airstrikeds carried out on the suburb of Chasov Yar where temporary deployment points of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were located by the Russians.

And the biggy this morning…Three missiles werre fired with precision in the Chernigov area. At least one of those missiles hit the hotel “Profsoyuznaya.” At the time of the strike there was a meeting being held at the hotel of the leadership of OK North of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the participation of Lieutenant General Dmitry Krasilnikov who holds (or held ??) the position of Commander of a group of troops in the Chernigov area.

The reports suggest that the Hotel was being used to house military personnel but Ukraine is stating it was a random Russian attack against civilians. There may have been civilians however, the hotel was definitely and by a large margin, a military target.

In Georgia, despite protests from the pro-Western opposition, the law on foreign agents was adopted in the first reading, which will limit the ability of Western funds to act in Georgia.

H/T Filly…

Just The News: “The Democratic-led Senate killed both impeachment charges against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Wednesday, cancelling the impeachment trial before it got off the ground.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., offered a deal to the Senate GOP on the floor where senators would have time for debate and Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, would be able to force votes on a full trial as well as establishing an impeachment committee. Votes on dismissing the impeachment articles would follow. Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., said on the floor that he objected to voting to dismiss the charges without a full trial.
After his objection, Schumer motioned for a vote on the constitutionality of impeachment article one against Mayorkas. Schumer argued that it does not rise to the level of “high crimes and misdemeanors.”
Cruz requested a vote that the Senate move to a closed session to debate the constitutionality of impeachment article one. Schumer shot back, saying he gave the GOP a chance to debate the articles in public but Schmitt objected. The motion raised by Cruz failed to pass.
Schumer’s motion to deem article one unconstitutional passed 51-48. He then made a motion to deem article two unconstitutional, which passed 51-49.
The two impeachment articles against Mayorkas alleged a “breach of trust” related to Mayorkas describing the southern U.S. border as secure as well as a “willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law.”
Mayorkas told Congress under oath that the southern border was secure when migrants attempting to enter the U.S. was surging. Migrant encounters have continued to set records and the Biden Administration has been releasing millions into U.S. communities. House Republicans estimate that there have been 8 million migrant encounters to date under Biden. They also estimate that about 3.5 million migrants have been released into the U.S.
Senate Republicans argued that the chamber should not set a precedent that lying to Congress to not an impeachable offense. 
Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska, noted that never before the history of the U.S. have impeachment articles been dismissed before impeachment managers have a chance to present their case. Some senators such as John Thune, R-S.D., tried to make several arguments on the floor as to why the Senate should hold a trial, including that the “worst border crisis” in U.S. history has unfolded since 2021. The presiding office, Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., said the Senate was not in a debatable position and called for order.
“The Senate will be in order,” she said. Schumer said earlier on Wednesday that he would allow a floor debate on the impeachment articles but called on senators to dismiss the charges. “For the sake of the Senate’s integrity and to protect impeachment for those rare cases, we truly need it. Senators should dismiss today’s charges,” Schumer said in a speech on the Senate floor.
“So when we convene in trial today to accommodate the wishes of our Republican Senate colleagues, I will seek an agreement for a period of debate time that would allow Republicans to offer a vote on trial resolutions, allow for Republicans to offer points of order and then move to dismiss,” he added.
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said on Wednesday that “tabling articles of impeachment would be unprecedented in the history of the Senate.”

TheseTruths

So what happens now? The Left gets away with every kind of law-breaking.

singingsoul1

Yes the communists can break every law they do not have to abide by the constitution
These people have no respect for America or its people. Wonder what Schumer’s parents would say or Mayorka’s? Or every congress person who’s family fled Nazi’s or communism ? Shame on them to violate their families and there family names for generations to come. A good name is worth more than all the gold and power in the world.

pat frederick

it’s dismissed…as far as i can tell.
nothing happens.
he skates.
the impeachment managers weren’t even allowed to present any evidence.

TheseTruths

I don’t know the rules, but I had thought that would violate the Constitution. Not that they care, of course.

pat frederick

from Politico

The Senate voted to deem both articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas as unconstitutional — cutting the trial short without any votes to convict or acquit.
Both votes mostly adhered to party lines, aside from Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) voting present on the first article. Senate Democrats for months had repeatedly cast the impeachment against Mayorkas as a sham, forecasting their ultimate decision to dispose of the trial on Wednesday.

BREAKING: O’Keefe Media Uncovers who is really running the White House. Undercover cameras catch Special Advisor @SBAgov call former @facebook Board Member @WHCOS @ZientsJeff27574 “the second most powerful person in Washington” where “whatever this guy says, it’s what the President says.” Asked by OMG’s American Swiper Citizen Journalist “is Jeff [Zeints] more powerful than Kamala,” Robinson confirms “Yeah.” @VP @KamalaHarris. Robinson also states that @BarackObama and @HillaryClinton are still involved behind the scenes at the White House.

Tyler Robinson, Special Advisor to the Chief of Staff of Administrator @SBAIsabel Guzman, details how @WhiteHouse directs @SBAIsabel Guzman to campaign for @POTUS so constantly that “[Guzman] is the most traveled member of the cabinet. Like pretty much every week.” Under the guise of talking to small business owners, Guzman travels across the country to help elect Democrats – especially swing state Democrats like @SenatorTester: “The White House was like, yes, go. Invite Senator Tester. Don’t invite the other Senator because he’s a Republican. And don’t invite the two members of Congress because they’re Republicans.” Such actions may be considered potential violations of the Hatch Act, which restricts federal employees from taking an active part in partisan political management and forbids them from campaigning for or against candidates.

Robinson says Guzman acts “as a spokesperson for Biden” as “…we try to visit with a member of Congress if they’re a Democrat…Just because then we can help them get re-elected as well.” @US_OSC

I wonder if that dad got a rider on his homeowners insurance. I bet the standard policy doesn’t cover it.

Very interesting life…from 4 yo on.

At one point in Russia (born is USSR), he created the largest social media company in Russia, Ukraine, region. Russian government wanted him to censor, block enemies of Russian government. He said NO. Was kicked out of Russia.
^^^ Read that again.
Now recall, FB, TW (before Elon) etc. Caved And Censored here in America. Still do, I am sure.

That was a Really Good interview. It sure makes Telegram sound like the good guys. His eyes were so clear & he sure seemed trustworthy & all about freedom AND free speech!

Have little to no reason to doubt Pavel Durov / Telegram.

He sure comes across as the Real Deal!

The poor woman (attorney, I guess) sitting in the middle of the table, in the bottom middle of the screen, looks as if she’d like to slide under the desk. At about the 1-minute mark she has her head in her hands. The guy at the table also looks extremely uncomfortable. I bet it’s h3ll working with that woman.

I hate to bring race into it, but it’s a good thing it’s a black judge.

kalbokalbs

DEI or some such nonsense got this “attorney” her job.

litenmaus

BLM is more likely what landed her the job kalbo…..

kalbokalbs

Prolly so.

TheseTruths

It kind of morphed into DEI, it seems.

kalbokalbs

Perhaps lazy. I lump all that crap together.

Initially was going to include that thought, in my reply to Litenmaus.

Valerie Curren

That is one unprofessional woman 🙁

I haz donned my tinfoil hat….
The two videos each has a great still of Biden.

Look closely at the two stills from the videos above and note the bottom areas of the ears. The Biden/Haifa ears don’t match the Biden/Pittsburgh ears.

Biden/Pittsburgh – Bright sun shining…note the forehead is clear of age spots and because the shot is an outside shot, one wouldn’t anticipate that Biden would be wearing makeup…Note the Biden/Haifa shot….Bidens forehead is covered in age spots and yet, one would expect that being a press conference, Biden would be wearing makeup in this shot.

And finally – Remember 4 or 5 days ago when a picture of Jill Biden showed up and the wrinkles on the side of her face seemed “odd”?….Note the “odd” wrinkles on the Biden/haifa left side profile.

IMO….there’s at least a third Biden and there are at least two Jill’s

google Images: President Biden

Iz removing my hat but I wanna know: When does the circus tent go up in smoke?

Gosh. One of either is one too many. (Not suggesting anything nefarious. Jus want them both to Go AWAY.)

When? Not soon enough.   :wpds_mrgreen: 

TheseTruths

I don’t see the Haifa pic, and I didn’t see anything about Jill Biden.

One very important thing to look at is whether the person moves, sounds, and talks like JB, and this person does, exactly. IMO, it is not possible for someone to do that and fool people that JB knows and, basically, the world.

In the Philadelphia pic the sun is so bright that there are no shadows on people’s faces. It is probably washing out their appearance.

Do you think you would be fooled by someone impersonating someone you know very well? This might not apply to you but is an example: could someone pretending to be your brother walk in, talk with you, and have you utterly convinced that it was he? I can tell you that the answer to that is no, you would not be fooled. Something would give him away.

We might say that some of the inner circle would be in on something like this, but certainly not every member of Congress or the press pool or peripheral staff members. Someone would see something. At the very least, conservative members of Congress would speak up and launch an investigation. Trump would be alerted. Does anyone think that, especially in an election year, the Trump campaign would let it slide that his opponent is so disabled that he has multiple body doubles making appearances for him?

There might be body doubles that are used at a distance or for non-speaking engagements, but I don’t think it’s possible for someone to become another person to the point of utterly deceiving others, up close and personal.

“There might be body doubles that are used at a distance or for non-speaking engagements, but I don’t think it’s possible for someone to become another person to the point of utterly deceiving others, up close and personal.”

If it was a body double, the people who actually know him would be aware and in on the ruse, it’s everyone else who would be fooled.

If a body double is wearing some kind of mask, then anyone who is the right general height and weight could be the body double, but the voice and speaking mannerisms would require some specialized ability that most people can’t do.

The slurred speech and other ‘crazy’ affects would be much easier for a body double to pull off, to cover up for their lack of ability to really get the voice down to sound like the ‘real’ Joe Brandon.

IMO, there are too many people who have dealings with politicians in high places, and especially the president, for everyone who knows him to be in on the ruse.

If a body double is wearing some kind of mask, then anyone who is the right general height and weight could be the body double, but the voice and speaking mannerisms would require some specialized ability that most people can’t no one can do.

I can’t think of one impersonator that I believe could imitate someone to the point of making people think they were actually the person.

The slurred speech and other ‘crazy’ affects would be much easier for a body double to pull off, to cover up for their lack of ability to really get the voice down to sound like the ‘real’ Joe Brandon.

Even when JB slurs, he sounds exactly like himself (because it IS himself). Dana Carvey did an excellent impersonation of JB, including slurred speech, and he sounds very much like him, but not exactly. Humans can sense the difference.

I just wouldn’t underestimate the power to deceive, or the willfulness of allies to aid and abet.

The entire FIB, DoJ and every other agency of weaponized criminal federal government are prime examples.

Hundreds of thousands of people, all protecting themselves, their paychecks and the total corruption of the agencies they serve.

For example, from OT:

Mike Garcia Tells FBI Director Chris Wray His Agency Has Ideologically Inverted and Now Represents the USA Equivalent of The Soviet Secret Police
April 16, 2024

“It needs to be said, and it needs to be said loudly, the FBI is the 2024 equivalent of the 1984 Soviet-era KGB, now FSB.

The modern FBI is the police agency of a weaponized U.S government, with a direct and purposeful mandate to keep the American people under control through strict surveillance and a violent police state.

Understand and accept this with great seriousness, there are no honorable “rank and file” inside this organization.

Every member of the FBI is a participant in the weaponization of power and government. The members are jackboots recruited from ideological college campuses for exactly the purpose of supporting a Stasi-like police state.”

Is this why war is so profitable for the military industrial complex? 🤔

Likely millions, literally millions of similar examples.

Aligns with nonsense Briben’s spouts most every day.

It won’t let me edit it for some reason, so I wanted to say

It wouldn’t let you edit because I had already replied.

Well it kept saying that I had a duplicate comment, fwiw, & it was before your lightening reply, or so I thought 😉
