Crush of lawsuits over voting in multiple states creates a shadow war for the 2024 election

The Republican National Committee, newly reconstituted under Trump, has filed election-related lawsuits in nearly half the states. Recent lawsuits over voter roll maintenance in Michigan and Nevada are part of a larger strategy targeting various aspects of voting and election administration.

It’s not a new strategy. But with recent internal changes at the RNC and added pressure from the former president, the legal maneuvering is expected to play an increasingly significant role for the party as Election Day in November approaches. The lawsuits are useful for campaign messaging, fundraising and raising doubts about the validity of the election.

Danielle Alvarez, a senior adviser to the RNC and the Trump campaign, said the lawsuits were one of the organization’s main priorities this year.

“This is something that’s very important to President Trump,” she said. “He has said that this is something the RNC should do year-round.”

JOHN 10:22-30

22It was the feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem; 23it was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. 24So the Jews gathered round him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” 25Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness to me; 26but you do not believe, because you do not belong to my sheep. 27My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me; 28and I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, and no one shall snatch them out of my hand. 29My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. 30I and the Father are one.”

D-Pat,

I find Melatonin really helps me sleep (Also recommended as an Anti-spike nutrient)

The other thing I found that really helps is Magnesium. You often find Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc and D3 together for bone health.

Magnesium Oxide is not as easily absorbed but cheaper so it is what you normally find.

Magnesium Citrate (good for preventing kidney stones) is absorbed better.  Although considered safe, magnesium citrate may produce nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach aches. from — Naturopathic Protocol for Kidney Stones

https://grrrgraphics.com/speaker-mike-johnson-follows-judas-not-jesus/

The metamorphosis of House Speaker Mike Johnson was as swift as it was shocking. We thought Johnson was MAGA-minded and we even drew a cartoon to support him. Little did we know…

The latest Republican Speaker of the House has since dashed our hopes by aligning with Democrats. He pushed legislation calling for an additional $60 billion to be sent to the corrupt Zelensky and crew. Ukraine’s borders must be protected while our own border remains wide open. American citizens will pay for it by means of inflation. The money that will go to Ukraine (and skimmed by the twerp Zelensky) could have been spent on rebuilding America’s infrastructure. We need a new bridge in Baltimore along with new (non-racist) roads and bridges. Instead the money is wasted perpetuating a meat grinder while Ukrainian flags are waved in Congress. They are traitors.

The satanic globalists want Putin taken out and they will spend endless money and pull strings and waste lives to do it. The US should have no interest in Ukraine, but Johnson has been swallowed up the RINO-infested Uniparty. He is now doing the bidding of those very same satanic globalists. The war is NOT something Jesus would support, but apparently Johnson doesn’t follow Jesus when it’s not convenient.

We may as well have the socialist Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker…or even Nancy Pelosi. Johnson will be difficult to remove because he now has Democrat support. 

Johnson loves to wave his Bible at us and claim a deep affinity for Jesus. So does Mike Pence. That’s fine, but isn’t it funny how two of the supposedly most religious men in politics also turned out to be the two biggest backstabbers? They may love Jesus, but they act more like Judas. Over two thirds of the country oppose giving more money to Ukraine, yet it happens anyway.

So much for democracy.

We have now all seen openly how far the scum will go in taking down people, families, communities and nations in their quest for power and control. Their leaders now openly self identify themselves while using clandestine operatives with zero consciences about what they do.

Cowards such as Johnson that succumb to blackmail, extortion, or may have been DS operatives all along are the Lord’s to address ultimately. Remove him and those like him from the battle by gaining enough seats filled with MAGA patriots.

Alan Dershowitz says he is no longer loyal to Democratic Party after Columbia protests
He should never have been loyal to the Dem Party, but I’ll take whatever works. I have respected a number of his opinions, including the one on DEI below, because they have been based on common sense and the rule of law instead of politics.

Harvard Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz stated he no longer has any “loyalty” to the Democratic Party on Monday, and that he would not exclusively vote Democrat in future elections.

Dershowitz, a long-time Democrat who has been a major critic of President Joe Biden and the current administration, said his party has been an “extraordinary disappointment” because they have not been very vocal about the pro-Palestine protests at Columbia University, which have been ongoing since last Wednesday.

“We’re hearing nothing from Democrats. We are hearing nothing from Chuck Schumer,” Dershowitz said on the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show. “We’re hearing nothing really direct from President Biden. He made a very disappointing statement. In the same breath, he talked about the demonstrators in passing and he said, ‘but you have to understand the Palestinian situation.’ No, you don’t have to understand the Palestinian situation. When people are calling for rape and murder and beheading. The Democrats are an extraordinary disappointment.”

“I am no longer presumptively voting for Democrats,” he said. “I’m gonna vote for whoever is the best candidate, that may include Democrats, but I have no loyalty anymore to the party.” 

Dershowitz also slammed college admissions and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies as contributing to the problems recently seen at elite universities. 

“Many of the students [protesting] today are unqualified students,” Dershowitz said. “They were admitted because of DEI. They were admitted because Qatar and other Arab countries are paying for foreign students. These are not the best and the brightest students, they are the loudest students, but they’re certainly not students who are looking out for the best interests of America.”

The former Ivy League professor additionally claimed that Jewish students are being treated like “third-class citizens,” and that what has erupted in the country over the Israel-Palestine war is worse than the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill in 2021.

“What we’re seeing is something that I believe, and this is going to be very controversial, I believe is potentially more dangerous than January 6, which was terrible, and than Charlottesville, which was terrible,” Dershowitz said. “Because those didn’t involve as many students, not as many elite people, as many future leaders. We’re hearing the future leaders of America chanting ‘We are Hamas.’ In other words, ‘we are rapists. We believe in raping Jewish women. We are beheaders. We are kidnappers. We are murderers.’ That’s what they’re chanting. And these are people who will run for Congress … 10 years from now, who will be partners at law firms, and who will be working in the editorial rooms of CNN, and the New York Times.”

Aubergine

Yeah, but he’ll still vote for Democrats who do dumb Democrat stuff. He’ll vote for Republicans like Liz Chaney or Mitt Romney.

Right. But Dems are losing the loyal, unquestioning support of a number of people. Some of them don’t turn into MAGA patriots overnight, but their complaints and defection can cause others to stop and think.

A victory for freedom of speech…Jonathan Turley:Ninth Circuit Rules Against Seattle in Using “Heckler’s Veto” in Arrest of Pro-Life Protester

We have often discussed how cities and universities will use the threat of protests to block or shutdown free speech, particularly of conservative speakers or groups. We now have a major decision out of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit that could prove an important precedent in resisting the growing anti-free speech movement in the United States. In Meinecke v. City of Seattle, the court ruled against Seattle in a case involving the arrest of a pro-life protester. Matthew Meinecke was harassed by Antifa and other counterprotesters, but police arrested Meineche when he refused to yield in exercising his right to free speech.

In his decision, Judge Jay Bybee (who was joined by Judges Margaret McKeown and Daniel Bress) described how Meinecke went to an abortion rally and LGBTQ event to read Bible passages. He was abused and assaulted by the protesters, including some identified as Antifa. The group has regularly engaged in violence against those with opposing views, including pro-life advocates. Yet, rather than protect him and arrest Antifa members, the police demanded that Meinecke stop speaking.

The court described the encounters…

Note the protesters stole his bible and assaulted him. Yet, the police threatened Meinecke with arrest and then took him into custody for failing to be silenced by the mob.

The panel ruled that Meinecke was likely to prevail in his constitutional challenge in granting a preliminary injunction “from enforcing § 12A.16.010(A)(3) against Meinecke in public parks and streets based on the anticipated hostile reaction of an audience.”

The panel expressly denounced the enforcement of “content-based heckler’s vetoes”:

Part of the panel’s opinion, which is a satisfying read, IMO:

Our precedent on this point is clear: “The prototypical heckler’s veto case is one in which the government silences particular speech or a particular speaker ‘due to an anticipated disorderly or violent reaction of the audience.’” As such, it “is a form of content discrimination, generally forbidden in a traditional or designated public forum.” The Supreme Court has emphasized as “firmly settled” that “the public expression of ideas may not be prohibited merely because the ideas are themselves offensive to some of their hearers, or simply because bystanders object to peaceful and orderly demonstrations.” … “Listeners’ reaction to speech is not a content-neutral basis for regulation.” …. It is apparent from the facts, including the video available from police body cameras, that the Seattle police directed Meinecke to leave the area because of the reaction his Bible-reading provoked at the Dobbs and PrideFest protests….

[T]he City maintains that the police officers merely sought to relocate Meinecke’s speech rather than ban it outright…. But the government cannot escape First Amendment scrutiny simply because its actions “can somehow be described as a burden rather than outright suppression.” …

Even assuming that the officers simply instructed Meinecke to cross the street, their directions burdened Meinecke’s speech. Meinecke had a right, just as those participating in the anti-Dobbs rally or the celebration of PrideFest, to use public sidewalks and streets for the peaceful dissemination of his views….

“If speech provokes wrongful acts on the part of hecklers, the government must deal with those wrongful acts directly; it may not avoid doing so by suppressing the speech.” … The officers could have required the protestors to take a step back from Meinecke. They could have called for more officers—as they did after Meinecke was arrested. They could have erected a free speech barricade. They could have warned the protestors that any sort of physical altercation would result in the perpetrators’ arrests. And they could have arrested the individuals who ultimately assaulted Meinecke.

The City did none of those things. Instead, the police report on Meinecke’s arrest simply recites that “[w]hen resources allowed in the past[,] SPD would try and keep the two opposing groups separated.” That is hardly the sort of concrete proof necessary to establish that restricting Meinecke’s speech was the only way to avoid violence….

Turley:

The opinion is a major win for free speech at a time when this “indispensable right” is under attack by an array of government, corporate, and academic interests. We have seen Democratic politicians use the threat of violence from the left as an excuse to bar pro-life and conservative speakers. Likewise, this has become a regular practice at universities in barring conservative speakers due to security concerns while liberal speakers are free to speak on campuses.

Here is the opinion: Meinecke v. City of Seattle

“Note the protesters stole his bible and assaulted him. Yet, the police threatened Meinecke with arrest and then took him into custody for failing to be silenced by the mob.”

______________

Because the police are straight-up jackboot thug criminals.

Period.

There was no question, no doubt in the cops’ minds about who was breaking the law, and who wasn’t.

They let all the lawbreakers go, and arrested (and prosecuted) the innocent man, and they did the whole deed openly.

They’re DIRTY cops.

A disgrace to the uniform and every law abiding police officer who ever served.

I also think they did the thing that was easiest for them. By dealing with one man, they didn’t have to handle a whole crowd of people.

And with luck, once the case is settled, Meinecke can SUE THE SCHIFF out of the Settle Police Dept. AND WIN.

The (Not) Supreme Court may have ruled the Cops have no duty to protect BUT, the Cops acted under the Color of the Law.

18 U.S. Code § 242 – Deprivation of rights under color of law

Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or to different punishments, pains, or penalties, on account of such person being an alien, or by reason of his color, or race, than are prescribed for the punishment of citizens, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.

Section 1981 | Wex | US Law | LII / Legal Information Institute

Section 1981 is a shorthand reference to 42 U.S.C. § 1981, which derives from Section 1 of the 1866 Civil Rights Act. The statute establishes that certain rights are to be guaranteed to all citizens of the United States, and these rights are to be protected against impairment by nongovernment and state discrimination….

Section 1981 differs from Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Section 1981 applies only to intentional racial discrimination, while Title VII applies to intentional discrimination and disparate impact discrimination on race, color, national origin, sex, or religion…

Section 1981 protection against discrimination in actions taken by the federal government, but also by the state governments and private individuals….

I really, really want to see Whites and Christians using those laws against the Government!

scott467

“The (Not) Supreme Court may have ruled the Cops have no duty to protect BUT, the Cops acted under the Color of the Law.”

_____________

If the cops have NO DUTY to PROTECT, then We the People have NO REASON to PAY THEM.

We’re definitely not paying them for their good looks or their sparkling personalities.

We PAY them to PROTECT, and that means protect US, not the criminals they work for, and not the criminals in the street.

If they don’t do that, if they have no DUTY to do that, then it’s BREACH OF CONTRACT, and they’re FIRED.

And the (not)Supreme Court can be fired right along with them, fired right out of the second story of the Court Building.

Seriously, what exactly are We the People paying them for, if they have no duty to protect the People who pay them?

scott467

If you’re a cop, you have ONE primary job to do, and that is to protect the People.

If the (not)Supreme Court says they don’t have to do the ONE thing they were hired to do, then the (not)Supreme Court just made the job of police officer obsolete.

Shut it down.

Cut taxes by 90% so people can hire their own security, i.e., people who DO have a duty to protect the people who pay them.

This article does a good job of explaining the importance of the documents that Judge Cannon ordered unredacted. It contains screenshots of the documents with and without redactions.

COVER-UP EXPOSED: Judge Cannon Unmasks Redacted Documents Revealing Biden White House Direct Ties to Mar-a-Lago Raid, Jack Smith Investigation

The newly unredacted documents revealed Biden’s White House had direct ties to the Mar-a-Lago raid. The Biden Regime was also directly tied to Jack Smith’s investigation despite claims to the contrary from US Attorney General Merrick Garland.

Before with redactions: Jack Smith wanted to hide the fact that the National Archives had several conversations with the Biden White House…

Unredacted: On May 5, 2021, less than 5 months after the end of President Trump’s term, NARA General Counsel Gary Stern sent an internal email attaching a draft letter to President Trump’s PRA representatives. Stern noted that he “had several conversations” with WH…”

US Attorney General Merrick Garland’s claims about “independence” from investigations into Trump are LIES.

The Biden White House and DOJ were involved in developing a criminal case against Trump for ‘mishandling of classified documents.’

According to the newly unredacted docs, On September 1, 2021, NARA’s General Counsel Stern was circulating a “letter that we could consider sending to the Attorney General about missing Trump records.”

Biden’s Justice Department told the National Archives what to do to cover their tracks.

NARA General Counsel Stern was put in touch with high ranking DOJ official who then gave him instructions on how to cover his tracks.

Joe Biden’s Department of Energy was also involved in the cover-up.

Recall that the DOE retroactively terminated Trump’s security clearance AFTER Trump was indicted.

The unredacted documents show the Department of Energy discovered Trump had an active security clearance after he was indicted so they retroactively terminated it.

True Lies is now available on 4K blu-ray:

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/True-Lies-4K-Blu-ray/191854/

Unfortunately the director, James Cameron, has a fetish for revisionism, so when his films eventually make it to 4K (many of them for the first time this year), he has tinkered with them, removed grain, changed color weightings, and generally modernized the appearance.

As with George Lucas and his obsession with changing things in every generation of Star Wars releases, many fans (all those who pay attention and care) want to slap James Cameron straight.

Aliens (1986) and The Abyss (1989) were the two most highly anticipated recent releases, and he futzed with both of them.

They’re better than the old blu-ray (The Abyss didn’t even have a blu-ray release until the new 4K release), but they are less than what they could have (and should have) been.

He has no respect for originality, authenticity or a genuine filmic presentation.

Which also means he has no respect for the people who actually pay to see or own his movies. After a while, that works both ways.

Disappointing about Cameron. I hate when they modify existing material especially editing out “offensive” things. Let the art speak for itself & if “necessary” add some type of “trigger warning” for whining lefties to prepare their liddle selves…

scott467

In his case, there was no editing out that I’m aware of, the image just has a slightly videotape appearance to it, instead of a filmic appearance.

Like they remove all the natural film grain, so it looks more like something that was shot on video for TV.

Fortunately, Aliens and The Abyss (and True Lies) are not disasters (like Terminator 2: Judgement Day is), it’s just very disappointing to wait so long for a great film to be restored, knowing the director’s fetish for screwing up the presentation, and then finding out that your concerns were (once again) warranted.

It’s not hard to do it right. You have to work at it, to screw it up.

Terminator 2: Judgement Day (also directed by and ruined by Cameron during the restoration for 4K) is one of the prime examples (and the one that is always mentioned) of ruining a restoration.

The movie has an 8.9 rating out of 10, it deserved the best presentation possible. Fans of the movie (practically everyone who has ever seen it) were not happy about it.

The review at blu-ray.com was kind compared to many:

Jeffrey Kauffman review: “Terminator 2: Judgment Day is presented on 4K UHD courtesy of Lionsgate Films with a 2160p transfer in 2.40:1. Fans have long complained about Terminator 2: Judgment Day‘s previous home video releases, to the point that some are calling this title “cursed”, but it’s interesting to note that my colleague Martin Liebman actually gave the first Blu-ray release a 4.0 video rating, even while he complained that the entire transfer was on the lackluster side (several users who have contributed reviews to the site gave the release much lower marks).

The two biggest issues most videophiles will have with this new release are the near absence of organic looking film grain and some tweaks to the palette that, for example, add a kind of greenish-teal tone to several scenes that never had them before. Some folks in our forum have complained about excessive sharpening as well, but I saw no really outrageous signs of haloing or other phenomena that would suggest overly aggressive digital tweaking in that particular regard.

Now I may raise some hackles with this next statement, but if (and it’s a big, maybe massive, if) you can accept the aforementioned two major changes, especially the lack of grain which now gives the entire presentation the sleek, smooth look of modern digital capture, there is definitely an uptick in detail in the 4K “restoration”. Even with grain scrubbed, elements like the pock marks on Hamilton’s cheek or fabrics of costumes have a decidedly precise and sharp appearance.

When some of the “new, improved” grading techniques aren’t on display, the palette is actually rather nice looking, and some of the intentionally colored scenes (for example, some of the POV “scan” shots from the Terminator’s perspective) pop quite vividly. Fine detail is actually quite good in my estimation in the many outdoor scenes once Sarah has escaped from her “confinement”.

I’m sure some fans think that both the Blu-ray and 4K UHD discs deserve zero scores in the video department, but I’m actually kind of conflicted. This is revisionism, to be sure, and rather peculiar revisionism at that, but from a (hopefully) purely objective standpoint, to my eyes detail levels are in fact improved in the 4K version. For that reason, I’m splitting the difference and giving the 4K video a 2.5, indicating a barely passing grade. (I’ve slightly upped the rating for the 1080p Blu-ray, ironically because the lower resolution doesn’t provide the same clarity in terms of the some of the deficits in grain and changes to the palette.)”

Or so he thinks. He is being REASONABLE. Our Psychopathic ‘leaders’ are not.

As I explained in THE CASE FOR NUCLEAR WAR, a war between the USA/China and maybe Russia wipes out much of the human population (13 out of 15 gotta go) but leaves the land in reasonable shape if done correctly. It can be farmed in 20 to 30 years or less if you do not give a Schiff about your slaves.

Meanwhile the Elite wait it out in New Zealand.

I previously mentioned diving the backside of Molokini. A lot of people make a big deal out of it….

Some people would rather just dive in a pool…..

Incidentally, I may have done a 200 foot dive, but only very briefly. If you could breathe from a regular tank for 50 minutes at the surface, that would be 25 minutes at 32 feet, 12.5 minutes at 96 feet, or 6.25 minutes at 160 feet. If you spent more than about 3-4 minutes at 200 feet, you’d run out of air — violating one of the primary rules for safe diving.

And, of course, the longer you dive and the higher the pressure, the more your tissues get loaded with nitrogen — meaning you have to spend time at intermediate pressures to allow the nitrogen to partially release. You might plan a dive to be 5 minutes at 80 feet, then 8 minutes at 50 feet, then ten minutes at 20 feet (this is not calc’d). It is very important to “plan your dive, and dive your plan.” There are special-purpose dive computers to help you monitor your plan, but you still have to plan it in advance.

Valerie Curren

Pretty cool but I think I’d prefer nature 🙂

cthulhu

I think the pool would be a great learning environment, but I prefer nature myself. In addition, the pool would only be good for learning up to a certain level, because it might make you too confident that things don’t go spontaneously wrong.

By contrast, our pool drills would occasionally have dive masters unbuckle your fins, flood your mask, or loosen your BC — and you got to pull yourself back together while underwater.

The three primary rules to SCUBA: (1) Never dive alone; (2) Never hold your breath; and (3) Never, never, never, never, never, never run out of air.

Gail Combs

My rule — Stay in the boat esp when it is the St Lawrence or a Finger Lake. (My boy friend at the time was a diver so I got to boat sit.)

The water is too darn COLD! It’s probably why I dislike swimming. Mom signed me up as a 5 yr old for 2 sets of swim lessons during a summer when it never got above 80F

Explosive Video of Car Crash Killing Boyfriend of Kemp’s Daughter Sparks Conspiracy Theories.

“No idea if there’s anything to this. But with all the new boundaries of acceptable behavior being broken, it might pay to be a bit jumpy and suspicious.

This bit we can be sure enough of:

Just one day after Brian Kemp [called for] a signature audit in Georgia, his daughter’s boyfriend, and a staffer to Senate runoff candidate Kelly Loeffler was killed in a fiery car crash. …

Harrison Deal was a young aspiring Georgia political figure. In his very young life, he’d already worked for two Senators, Perdue and Loeffler, and he had sights set on becoming a political figure in his own right.

article
One of the far-left Democrats who orchestrated a failed impeachment campaign against President Trump, and now has been adamant in defense of Joe Biden on impeachment investigation claims of influence peddling and corruption, has been sued for defaming a congressional witness.
The complaint by onetime Hunter Biden business associate Tony Bobulinski was filed against Jamie Raskin, in his individual capacity, in U.S. District Court in Maryland.
The lawsuit seeks $20 million in “compensatory, special and punitive” damages, plus costs, plus any other “relief as the court deems justice.”
Bobulinski, in fact, has testified to Congress investigating Joe Biden for possible impeachment about Biden’se personal involvement in the Biden family’s international business schemes, which critics have called influence peddling, and Congress has confirmed has generated paychecks of tens of millions of dollars.
Raskin repeatedly has tried to undermine the testimony of congressional witnesses who are critical of Biden, and specifically attacked Bobulinski, the filing explains,
“In his February 14, 2024, statement, defendant said that Mr. Bobulinski has been unable to support his claims and accused him of lying, Defendant’s March 6, 2024, post described Mr. Bobulinski as a ‘dubious’ witness. In doing so, defendant intended to convey and imply the defamatory interpretation that it is Mr. Bobulinski was untrustworthy, who lied to Congress. Defendant’s statements left a reasonable reader with the impression that it is really Mr. Bobulinski, who was bought and paid for by the Trump campaign, and therefore, who was lying about the Biden family’s business dealings.”
It continues, “Defendant intentionally created this inference to salvage his political party, and Joseph Biden, to the detriment of Mr. Bobulinski in his patriotic pursuit to expose the truth of the Biden family corruption. The inferences made are defamatory as they lead to hatred, distrust, ridicule, contempt, and/or disgrace for Mr. Bobulinski, and leaves the interpretation that Mr. Bobulinski was untrustworthy and lied to Congress. Indeed, it caused not only a large segment of the nation that despises all things Trump regardless of reality, but also rational and reasonable viewers, not to trust or find credibility with Mr. Bobulinski. Defendant made the statements with malice.”
Among Raskin’s claims was that the witness was a “Ttrump campaign plant and pawn,” and that he “engaged in criminal acts.”
The narrative of the complaint points out Bobulinsk’s successful U.S. military career, in which he was honored with the Navy-Marine Corps Commendation Medal, the Navy-Marine Corps Achievement Medal and the National Defense Service Medal.
It was after his military career that he got involved eventually in business deals with Hunter Biden.
His testimony is key in that he witnessed Joe Biden’s personal involvement in the family “influence” operations, dealings that Joe Biden has claimed he never knew about.
WND reported earlier when Bobulinski’s lawyers demanded a retraction from Raskin, a demand he ignored.
That letter warned Raskin, “You are not entitled to any immunity for your defamatory statements. The Speech and Debate Clause comes from Article I, Section 6, Clause 1 of the United States Constitution, and it includes, in relevant part: ‘for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.'”
But that only protects activities “undertaken in the House and Senate,” and provides no immunity “beyond its carefully defined scope,” the lawyers warned. “Anything that is not a legislative activity will not be protected.”
The letter warns Raskin, “Your statements are derogatory falsehoods, rendering them legally actionable. Your pattern of maliciously defaming Mr. Bobulinski is well-established and will not be tolerated.”

In cases like this, I’m always concerned with proving damages.

Defamation cases get dismissed if the plaintiff cannot show a negative impact on his/her life derived from the slander.

Emotional distress is not actionable in a defamation case.

then how did e jean what’s her face get $83 million from President Trump denying he had sex with her?

Maybe I’m wrong but I thought the premise was defamation due to his saying he’d never have wanted to have sex with her because she is so repulsive?

pat frederick

but that’s his OPINION…and he’s entitled to that via freedom of speech.
her feelings might have been hurt but she didn’t suffer any damages that i know of. the magazine that fired her explicitly said she lost her job due to lower readership of her column.
did she lose her sex queen status? ( who the hell gave her that crown anyways? LOL)

I want the CO2 level to be a MINIMUM of 1000 ppm!

A level below 220 ppm (It used to be 250 ppm) and PLANTS DO NOT PRODUCE SEED! Esp C3 plants that make up most of our food supply.

The CO2 data derived from glaciers has been corrupted BTW.**

SEE: The Carbon-Starved World of the Last Glacial Maximum

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

CO2: The Greatest Scientific Scandal of Our Time

(**) Statement of Prof. Zbigniew Jaworowski

Chairman, Scientific Council of Central Laboratory for Radiological Protection

Warsaw, Poland

Figures 1A and 1B

The data from shallow ice cores, such as those from Siple, Antarctica[5, 6], are widely used as a proof of man-made increase of CO2 content in the global atmosphere, notably by IPCC[7]. These data show a clear inverse correlation between the decreasing CO2 concentrations, and the load-pressure increasing with depth (Figure 1 A).

👉The problem with Siple data (and with other shallow cores) is that the CO2 concentration found in pre-industrial ice from a depth of 68 meters (i.e. above the depth of clathrate formation) was “too high”. This ice was deposited in 1890 AD, and the CO2 concentration was 328 ppmv, not about 290 ppmv, as needed by man-made warming hypothesis.👈 The CO2 atmospheric concentration of about 328 ppmv was measured at Mauna Loa, Hawaii as later as in 1973[8], i.e. 83 years after the ice was deposited at Siple.

There is a lot more. However I happened to independently determine the Mauna Loa data was PURE CRAP because the lab I worked at in 1972 -74 bought the same instrument they used for CO2 determination. We bought it because it was SUPPOSED to be good for determining the QUANTITY of a chemical in a sample.

I went nutz for weeks trying to get repeatability. The Infra-red was great for ID work but useless for determining quantity. we went back to using a gas chromatograph.

It was only decades later that I realized the salesman was basing his sales pitch on the LIES from the Mauna Loa lab.

…At the Mauna Loa Observatory the measurements were taken with a new infra-red (IR) absorbing instrumental method, never validated versus the accurate wet chemical techniques. [It was never validated because you COULD NOT VALIDATE IT!!!]

Critique has also been directed to the analytical methodology and sampling error problems (Jaworowski et al., 1992 a; and Segalstad, 1996, for further references), and the fact that the results of the measurements were “edited” (Bacastow et al., 1985); 👉large portions of raw data were rejected, leaving just a small fraction of the raw data subjected to averaging techniques👈 (Pales & Keeling, 1965).

[They rejected large portions because the data was all over the place — Think shotgun. So you could pick and choose any value you wanted.]

The acknowledgement in the paper by Pales & Keeling (1965) describes how the Mauna Loa CO2 monitoring program started: “The Scripps program to monitor CO2 in the atmosphere and oceans was conceived and initiated by Dr. Roger Revelle who was director of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography while the present work was in progress. Revelle foresaw the geochemical implications of the rise in atmospheric CO2 resulting from fossil fuel combustion, and he sought means to ensure that this ‘large scale geophysical experiment’, as he termed it, would be adequately documented as it occurred. During all stages of the present work Revelle was mentor, consultant, antagonist. He shared with us his broad knowledge of earth science and appreciation for the oceans and atmosphere as they really exist, and he inspired us to keep in sight the objectives which he had originally persuaded us to accept.” Is this the description of true, unbiased research?

The annual mean CO2 level as reported from Mauna Loa for 1959….”

LOTS of new volcanoes found:

The true extent to which the ocean bed is dotted with volcanoes has been revealed by researchers who have counted 201,055 underwater cones. This is over 10 times more than have been found before.

Sheryl Attkinson: Govt. planted classified Docs on her computerPosted on October 27, 2014 | 1 Comment

http://nypost.com/2014/10/27/ex-cbs-reporter-government-related-entity-bugged-my-computer/

“Attkisson says her source — identified only as “Number One” — told her the spying was most likely not court-authorized because it went on far longer than most legal taps.

But the most shocking finding, she says, was the discovery of three classified documents that Number One told her were “buried deep in your operating system. In a place that, unless you’re a some kind of computer whiz specialist, you wouldn’t even know exists.”

Sometimes you may ask yourself, in light of all that is happening, wold they really do that?

The short answer is yes, yes they would. You are not paranoid, things are as bad as you think they are. The police state will do whatever is necessary to stifle dissent and I am sure that planting classified documents is tame….

A brief recap of observations just this week already.

Yes, it is a spiritual war and has been in America for over 400 years. This worldwide spiritual war never ends until Jesus returns. The current battle is intense.

Daughter had outpatient surgery at the hospital yesterday to end the baby making. During the course of it she conversed with a male nurse who had to ask her if she had been jabbed as part of his job duties. She replied firmly to the negative. He smiled and said, “Good!” He said he refused and nearly lost his job, but they had nobody to replace him. He said most of the employees now wish they had not, they are sick a lot and bad stuff is happening to them. He said the hospital is being overrun with jab injured and death lately. He tells everybody to refuse them and management makes no attempt to stop him. Me – probably because their money tree for the jab scam is drying up, they have less qualified applicants for jobs, and they are on to the next scamdemic. Add in the sick and dying from the Covidiocy will be driving the current revenue stream for a good while.

The establishment GOP has benefited from the election cheats as much as the Dems since they are part of the Uniparty system. That is why they do not mind using the same type systems until We the People force them to pull the plugs, at which time they shift to a different cheat method. The only answer is removal of all the players involved within the system by MAGA patriots, including the judiciary that protects them. I admire PDT and supporters for their resolve in tanking this putrid system.

Hubby speaks up & points out that Trade School will actually prepare him for the real world better. In retrospect Hubby kind of wishes he’d gone that route himself. Live & learn 😉

Vaccines to Eliminate the God Gene Proposed by Bill Gates

This website has the video of the Bill Gates presentation.

Vaccines to kill human spirituality, is what Bill Gates proposed, as recorded in this video. He promises these vaccines will eliminate the faith of the people and make them normal materialists and consumers. Gates specifically targeted ‘The God Gene‘, active only in very good and faithful people – the VMAT2 gene, discovered to play a major role in one’s openness to spiritual experiences:

“The God Gene plays a role in one’s openness to spiritual experiences. The self-transcendence portion of the score was used as a spirituality index in Dean Hamer’s book, The God Gene: How Faith is Hardwired into Our Genes, showing the link between a particular gene and human behavior.” (Hamer, 2004)

Just the next year, 2005, Gates made a proposal to destroy this gene, using Vaccines as a biological weapon. Or course, we know Satan works to destroy human spirituality and now we know who are his instruments on earth….

Judge: FBI Protected Mom who Made $200 million Selling up to 8000 Children over 40 years – Gets Only 3 Months in Minimum Security Prison

Margaret Cole Hughes, Director of European Adoption Consultants (EAC), earlier this year accepted a plea deal from the U.S. Department of Justice to one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States and one count of making a false statement to the Polish Central authority in front of Federal Court Judge James Gwin in U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Ohio. (Source.)

Defense attorneys admitted in court filings that Cole is still in business after making $200 million over 40 years from selling 8000 children through fraudulent international adoptions. According to Judge James Gwin, the FBI protected Cole’s child trafficking network for 40 years and failed to investigate her. Instead, it was the State Department that investigated Cole. (Source.)

Cole’s stepson, Robert E. Hughes III, still works for the FBI. He was assigned to investigate her case by Andy McCabe, who at the time, was Acting Director of the FBI. (Source.)

Defense attorneys said the evidence against their client would have filled the Library of Congress.

Cole is wanted for child trafficking fraud in Poland. (Source.)

Margaret Cole Hughes, 75, began her three-month prison sentence in Alderson Federal Prison as a result of her plea deal. It is located in the resort area of Greenbriar, W. Virginia. (Source.)

‘Conspiracy Theories’ Aren’t Theoretical Anymore
That is a really good article. AND if you think Q is one of the ‘White Hats’ an encouraging sign.

Remember in 2015, American Stinker and Brietbart BOTH complained about me to DISQUIS so I could no longer ‘spam’ their comments with pro-Trump FACTS. I found there was ZERO way to appeal the decision and my e-mail/IP address was also ‘deactivated.’ (A bit of cooperation and investigation showed my comments at Jo Nova and ChiefIO and Steve Heller went directly to TRASH so they were never seen.)

So if we are seeing a shift AWAY from the Chamber of (Chynese) Commerce anti-Teaparty/MAGA mind set and TOWARDS pro-America it is a GOOD thing.

06/28/21 — US just finished dead last among 46 countries in media trust...
The Hill

The U.S. media is the least trustworthy in the world, according to a comprehensive new Reuters Institute survey encompassing 46 countries. 

But here in the U.S.A., the home of global media giants including the New York Times, Washington Post and CNN, we’re trusted by a whopping 29 percent of those reading and watching…

one Axios/Survey Monkey poll in 2019 found that 👉nearly 8-in-10 independent voters said they believed that news organizations report news “they know to be fake, false or purposely misleading.” Ninety-two percent of Republicans felt the same way, as did 👉even a majority of Democrats. 

Which means readers and viewers believe that the “mistakes” we so often see, particularly in the political media that dominates the national landscape, are not happening because of human error...

AND it has only gotten worse from there.

I also found this, which goes along with what the American Thinker author was saying. Obama started the distrust trend and Trump just ignited ‘Warp Speed’ in the trend.

This is some of the data I collected way back when. Please note that we are now at the end of April and have not reached a high of 80F yet!!! Last night it went down to 32F

OLD NOTES:
In the middle of the State, I count by July tenth 43 days over ninety F for 2004 vs 26 days for 2010, and four days of 98F in 2010 vs nine days of 98F in 2004

Central North Carolina Monthly temps over 90F for.2004.&.2010 & 2013
.April 2004 (6)……..April 2010 (1)……….April 2013 (0)
2 days – 91F…………1day – 91F……………..(high 86F)
4 days – 93F……………………………………….

In April 2004 we had 2 days – 91F. and 4 days – 93F. With 17 days over 90F and a high of 98 for the month of May.

In 2011 the April highs ranged from 55F to 87F we did not see temps over 90F until May23th (91F)

In 2012 the April highs ranged from 51F to 86F (five over 80F) we did not see temps over 90F until May2th (91F)

In 2013 the April highs ranged from 45F to 86F (seven over 80F) we did not see temps 90F or over til Jun 12th. (3 days, 90F, 90F, 95F for the entire month of June)

In 2014 the April highs ranged from 52F to 85F we did not see temps over 90F or over til May 15th. One day @ 91F for the entire month.

At least in my neck of the woods, it has been TRENDING COOLER!

More from that page of my old notes:

This is a regular survey
From 2015:

Last Friday (the 21st of August) I was again up on the North Face of Ben Nevis to do some surveying. This time I was helping with the Ben Nevis part of the annual Scottish snowpatch survey.

The Scottish snowpatch survey occurs each year in mid/late August,and basically involves people wandering around the hills counting and measuring the remaining snowpatches. I have been involved most years since 2008, and it is something I have written about on my blog a few times. This year I was joined by three fellow snowpatch enthusiasts; Iain Cameron, Mark Atkinson and Al Todd.

As expected given the snowy winter and cool spring/summer, there was a lot of snow on the Ben. In fact there was far more than I had seen at this time of the year before…

https://weatheraction.wordpress.com/2015/08/27/massive-increase-in-scottish-snow-patches/

Scotland was where glaciers formed during the Wisconsin Ice Age and not in Siberia which was a polar desert as were parts of Alaska. The other area where glaciers formed was the eastern part of North America. According to WIKI Hudson Bay was the growth centre for the main ice sheet that covered northern North America during the last Ice Age.

Polar Bear Science reported on August 13, 2015: 2nd highest ice coverage for Hudson Bay since 1971 at mid-August – only 1992 higher
Directly south of Hudson Bay are the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes obliterated all records for springtime ice last year, and this year. The Daily Mail (UK) reported that in mid October 2014 “Water temperature of the Great Lakes is over 6 degrees colder than normal ”

I would think, given the shape of the ice sheets during the Wisconsin Ice Age, that meridional jets and not necessarily temperature, are indicative of cooling weather at least at the beginning of the switch. Meridonal jets allow the mixing of polar air with moisture laden tropical air. This allows blizzards to dump massive snow amounts on various areas as we saw in the last few years.

Slow spring melting will then allow the ground and lakes to remain cooler heading into summer. For the last three years here in mid North Carolina it has been so cool my white clover has bloomed all summer. The is the first time I have seen the clover not die in the summer in the over 20 years I have lived here. According to Clemson Univ (S.C.) “White clover (Trifolium repens), also known as Dutch clover, is a cool-season perennial… It grows best when temperatures range from 50 to 85 °F.”

Normally we see summer temperatures in the 95 to above 100 °F range but not the last few years.

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.

CRY OUT WITH JOY

Cry out with joy to our mighty Lord;
Heed the commands in His Holy Word;
Sing Psalms of praise and thanksgiving;
All ye who dwell in the land of the living!

Serve Him with true gladness of heart;
From His grace – pray – do not depart;
Know that He – the Lord is our God;
We belong to Him – though we are flawed!

We are His people – the sheep of His flock;
His precious, petulant – errant livestock;
In fervent pastures – we take our repose;
We are the servants He faithfully chose!

Indeed how lovingly He cares for us;
We are His children – His main focus;
From age to age – His mercy endures;
His faithfulness and constancy ensures!

Enter His gates singing sweet Psalms of Praise;
Into His courts – with thanksgiving you raise;
Your voices in song – glad tidings you bring;
All Honor and Glory is His you sing!

Give thanks to the Lord for he is good;
His mercy endures – just as it should;
His Love everlasting is tried and true;
Unconditionally given for me and you!

Cry out with joy and praise His name;
His love is forever and ever the same;
He changes not from day to day;
He is steadfast and sure come what may!

Serve Him with gladness – enter singing;
His precepts are sound – ever bringing;
Correction with love and glorious peace;
Cry out with joy – His praise never cease!

Go out with joy and share His great love;
Mindful of blessings He bestows from above;
Shout from the rooftops – He is the Lord;
His victory assured – in His Holy Word!

so daniels debt to President Trump is now $670,000! (interest i guess)
article
Stormy Daniels Says She’ll ‘Go to Jail’ or ‘Die’ Before Paying Trump The $670K She Owes.
Pornography peddler Stormy Daniels has claimed she is “fully prepared to go to jail” and “would rather die” before paying President Donald Trump the $670,000 she owes as a result of multiple legal cases she has lost. Her remarks in violation of court orders came in an interview with sexual deviant Jeffrey Toobin on Saturday.
Daniels went as far as to text Toobin, “I’ll wear a dominatrix outfit to court. It’ll make for a festive mugshot,” when asked what she would do if held in contempt of court for refusing to pay.
Critically for Trump’s lawyers, Toobin also admits: “Her debt to Trump—and her refusal to pay it—complicates her usefulness as a witness, because the defense will surely argue that her anger about the debt gives her a motive to lie about the former president. So, as it happens, the story of Daniels’s debt—how it came about and what it means today—may be of considerable importance. In fact, the outcome of the presidential election and the future of American democracy may turn on it.”
Daniels’s debt stems from her hiring of disgraced lawyer and media darling Michael Avenatti, who presented a case against Trump “so weak” that federal judge S. James Otero awarded Trump legal fees of $293,000, and appealing this added $121,000 in further costs.
“With interest and court fees the number now stands at around $670,000,” writes Toobin, who seeks to portray the porn purveyor in a sympathetic light.
But even her former lawyer, Avenatti himself, now says, “[s]he has zero credibility, and she is the most opportunistic person I’ve ever met.”
To this day, Daniels claims to communicate with the dead, including a haunted doll called Susan. Toobin explains that this behavior may cause Daniels problems at the upcoming Manhattan trial, which begins later this month.

Can we fight with only these weapons we are allowed to have? Can we fight modern weapons the government has?

TheseTruths

We can do a lot of damage with the weapons we have. Think about someone approaching your house to do you harm. They wouldn’t know what kind of firearm you might have pointed at them, whether you have some kind of explosive device, etc. For them to avoid that danger completely, they would have to blow up your house or take some other drastic action. I can’t see them doing that to the whole population. Firearms are a deterrent.

How police departments got billions of dollars of Surplus Equipment – Marketplace

For decades, police departments have acquired military weaponry like grenade launchers and armored vehicles for little cost through a controversial Defense Department program called 1033.

EXCLUSIVE: Police received $210M worth of military equipment from the government in 2019, including armored vehicles, assault rifles and smoke grenade launchers – as part of Pentagon scheme reined in by Obama but reinstated by Trump

  • Military equipment given to police by the Department of Defense tripled last year, a DailyMail.com investigation can reveal
  • The DoD lists more than $210M of gear, including armored vehicles, rifles and smoke grenade launchers, sent to police forces in 2019  
  • Minnesota has stockpiled $31M of military equipment since 2016
  • Figures for the first quarter of 2020 already show $60M of military equipment, setting this year’s haul to be the most valuable since 2014
  • Cottage Grove Police Department, near Minneapolis where George Floyd was killed, picked up a $705,000 mine-resistant vehicle on March 10
  • This year the department also obtained accessories for M4 assault rifles, night vision equipment, 24 grenade carriers and two bomb disposal robots
  • New York police departments almost tripled their procurement of armed forces gear from $1.7 million in 2018 to $4.8 million last year, data reveals 
  • Military equipment is distributed to police forces under a Pentagon scheme called the 1033 Program 
  • The program was curtailed in 2015 by Barack Obama after an outcry over police killings of black people, but was reinstated by Donald Trump in 2017 

And then there are the machinists…

Remember the Chicago Seven trial? Judge Julius Hoffman held the defendants [or some of them] in contempt on multiple charges. He delayed the hearings until the trial was finished. He gave the contemnors up to four years in prison, including attorneys. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals reversed and sent many of the cases back to be tried by a different judge.

All of the contempt charges were for actions done in court in the presence of the judge, which I call direct contempt.

DJT is being charged with indirect contempt which is violation of a court order not in open court. There is precedent from the Chicago 7 case that the trial judge should not be conducting contempt hearings even of actions that took place in court.

Why are DJT’s attorneys allowing this farce without protest?

pgroup2

Since the contempt charges are seeking jail time and/or fines, DJT is entitled to all constitutional protections under the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 14th amendments.

Why are those protections being ignored?

pat frederick

does he actually need to “suffer the consequences” before he can appeal for relief?

Good question. I think that he could seek a temp restraining order from the appeals court pending appellate review.

I have called it CORPORATISM for years. However I noticed the ‘definition’ is wonky.

for example WIKI:

Corporatism is a political system of interest representation and policymaking whereby corporate groups, such as agricultural, labour, military, business, scientific, or guild associations, come together on and negotiate contracts or policy (collective bargaining) on the basis of their common interests.[1][2][3] The term is derived from the Latin corpus, or “body”.

However I could never find a word that described a government run by corporations.

There is this which the CIA run WIKI has major problems with

Corporatocracy (/ˌkɔːrpərəˈtɒkrəsi/, from corporate and Greek: -κρατία, romanized: -kratía, lit. ’domination by’; short form corpocracy[1]) is an economic, political and judicial system controlled by business corporations or corporate interests.[2]

The concept has been used in explanations of bank bailouts, excessive pay for CEOs, as well as complaints such as the exploitation of national treasuries, people, and natural resources.[3] It has been used by critics of globalization,[4] sometimes in conjunction with criticism of the World Bank[5] or unfair lending practices,[3] as well as criticism of free trade agreements.[4] Corporate rule is also a common theme in dystopian science-fiction media.

JUST IN: David Pecker just testified that he’s the one who told Trump women might come to him with stories, because Trump was such a popular bachelor who dated the most beautiful women. Apparently Trump was just planning a campaign run, but Pecker and Cohen were the ones worried about women coming forward. Does the prosecution realize they just made themselves look ridiculous? Their key witness just said Trump didn’t even come up with any of this.

I hope Massie doesn’t remove it. This article says the penalty would be a $500 fine. The American people could raise that amount for Massie in a heartbeat.

Mini ground report.

Local Smith’s (Kroger). Went to cashier who was chatting with customer, who’s sale was complete. Cashier quite animated, speaking matter of fact and normal voice.

I waited as she chatted away.

She apologizes to me.

  • Then says she got Boosted yesterday.
  • Awake all night. Headaches. Fever. Chest pain.
  • Never again. Learned her lesson. Only trying to be safe. Keep others safe.

Me. Wide eyed. Listening intently. I spoke quite clearly. Anyone nearby could hear, including teenage bagger gal listening to both of us.

  • Told her hope she feels better. Good she’ll never take another Jab. They are not safe, effective and are poison.
  • As I left. Wished her well. Emphasized the Jabs are poison. Hope she never gets another Jab. Looked at the teenage bagger gal, told her Jabs are poison.

Wish I knew the cashier better, to give her more information. Will try to speak with her in the coming days. Perhaps she will be receptive to receiving information. FLCCC, QTree…

FWIW. Have seen the cashier gals for several years. Professional, quick, accurate and friendly with every customer. Absolutely criminal what the government, Big Pharma and quacks are doing to citizens…criminal medical advice AND Jabs….

Shocked that people are still taking boosters in this late stage in the game.
If she just took a booster, how many other boosters has she taken to date? Might tell her to get her affairs in order to be on the safe side while handing her that card.

kalbokalbs

Yes. Hard to believe anyone takes Jabs these days.

My guess. Likely she, her name is Ruth, has had every Booster. I’ll provide the card, along with encouragement AND willingness to share more. Even gentle follow up.

I’ll not address her affairs or any such thing. Unless she inquires or otherwise open that line of discussion.

From the comments section:

It’s the fact that standards were absolutely lowered to improve diversity. They created a new base level for incompetence. In other words, “once lowered to improve diversity numbers, they stayed low for everyone.” I’m embarrassed by what has happened to my profession. I can also tell you there will be absolutely no consequences.

Great news:

Chaos Erupts After Tennessee House Passes Bill That Will Allow Teachers To Carry Guns in Classrooms, Protesters Chant “Blood on Your Hands”

The bill will now head to Governor Bill Lee’s desk, where he is expected to sign the bill into law.

The bill requires teachers and staff who wish to be armed in school to first receive permission from the school’s superintendent and principal.

It also requires teachers and staff to complete training in school policing, undergo a background check, and have a psychological examination.

Moments after the House passed the bill, protestors flooded the Tennessee House gallery and started to chant, “Blood on your hands.”

Whatever. I’m out of patience with people who don’t realize that good people using guns is the way to stop bad people with guns.

The Tenessee House bill comes a year after a transgender killed three children and three adults at The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee.

Fascism: Joe Biden Considering Declaring a National Climate Emergency and Giving Himself “COVID-Like” Powers Without Congressional Approval (VIDEO)

Facing dire polling numbers and a lack of left-wing enthusiasm for his “re-election” campaign, Joe Biden is considering taking an extreme measure that should send chills down the spines of any American who values liberty.

During an April 19 broadcast of the Fox Business Show The Bottom Line with Dagen and Duffy, co-host Sean Duffy revealed that the Biden White House told Fox Business that it is considering defying the Constitution and declaring a climate emergency. He then turned to his guest Marc Morano, a former Republican political aide who runs a climate change skeptic website called ClimateDepot.com, and asked him what impact it would have.

Morano cited an NBC News report indicating that if Biden declared a climate emergency, he would have COVID-like emergency powers. This would include the ability to implement the socialist Green New Deal along with up to 130 measures without approval from Congress.

Bloomberg reports the unchecked powers “could be used to curtail crude exports, suspend offshore drilling and curb greenhouse gas emissions.” The Biden regime believes this would enable them to meet climate targets with the stroke of a pen despite the deleterious impact it would have on millions of American jobs.

Bloomberg also notes that some White House officials believe that declaring a climate emergency would also energize leftist climate voters months before the election.

I don’t know that he would do this, but if he did, what would the remedy be? How could he be stopped?

kalbokalbs

Short of congress growing a set, not much. Unlikely.

Of course, the NOT SC, may entertain a case or two. Unlikely.

Beyond that, one answer.

  • Perhaps the Ace In The Hole. General Strike. VSG would have to call it.
  • Shutdown all 50.

I had the same thought, that “declaring a climate emergency would also energize leftist climate voters” would not necessariliy happen. They talk a good game, but as you said, take away the conveniences and see what happens.

A real eye opener wasn’t it?

That is why I think if reality bites them in the ass, they will run screaming. At least I hope so.

“Exposure to true information does not matter anymore.

A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information.The facts tell nothing to him.

Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures.Even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union, and show him a concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he is going to receive a kick in his fat ass.

When the military boot crushes his balls, then he will understand, but not before that.That is the tragedy of the situation of demoralization.”― Yuri Bezmenov

Other than Merchan berating Trump’s lawyer(s), have we heard anything from Merchan?

I can’t find anything except that Merchan has “held off” in making a decision. IMO, that makes it look as if he wants everyone hanging on his every word, and it makes him seem vewy powewful. (I’m so sick of these people. 😠)

Judge reprimands Trump lawyer but holds off on gag order ruling

The New York judge presiding in Donald Trump’s criminal trial held off on deciding whether he should be fined $10,000 for attacking expected trial witnesses in direct violation of the gag order designed to protect trial participants from being the target of Trump’s abuse.

The judge, Juan Merchan, reserved ruling from the bench. But he appeared deeply unconvinced by arguments from Trump’s lead lawyer Todd Blanche that a series of social media posts were just responses to political attacks on Trump and therefore permitted.

More about the gag order nondecision today:

Secret Service prepares for if Trump is jailed for contempt in hush money case

The U.S. Secret Service held meetings and started planning for what to do if former President Donald Trump were to be held in contempt in his criminal hush money trial and Judge Juan Merchan opted to send him to short-term confinement, officials familiar with the situation told ABC News.

Merchan on Tuesday reserved decision on the matter after a contentious hearing. Prosecutors said at this point they are seeking a fine.

“We are not yet seeking an incarceratory penalty,” assistant district attorney Chris Conroy said, “But the defendant seems to be angling for that.”

Officials do not necessarily believe Merchan would put Trump in a holding cell in the courthouse but they are planning for contingencies, the officials said.

There have not been discussions yet about what to do if Trump is convicted and sentenced to prison…

  :wpds_arrow:  The Secret Service declined to comment on specific plans in the matter.

“Under federal law, the United States Secret Service must provide protection for current government leaders, former Presidents and First Ladies, visiting heads of state and other individuals designated by the President of the United States,” the agency said in a statement. “For all settings around the world, we study locations and develop comprehensive and layered protective models that incorporate state of the art technology, protective intelligence and advanced security tactics to safeguard our protectees. Beyond that, we do not comment on specific protective operations.”

Prosecutors argued that Trump violated the limited gag order — which prohibits statements about witnesses, jurors, and lawyers in the case other than Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg — on at least 10 separate occasions this month.

Trump’s lawyers said prosecutors have not proven that posts Trump made on social media criticizing Cohen and Daniels were willful violations of the gag order, telling Merchan that the former president was defending himself from attacks by the likely witnesses.

Defense lawyers also argued that the gag order is vague and allows Trump to make “political” statements.
