Health Friday is a series related to Big Pharma, vaccines, general health, and associated topics. Since today’s offering is related to the COVID-19 disaster — the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus itself; and, to the COVID-19 “vaccines” — it is dedicated to the memory of Yours Truly’s “vaccinated” late brother Sam, and her late cousin Bill; and to all persons of any age who have died as a result of either an infection from the COVID-19 virus itself, or to the negative effects (direct or indirect) of the COVID-19 “vaccines” that they took. However, the discussion is not limited to what is presented today: It is an Open Thread.
There are Important Wolf Moon Notifications, the Rules of our late, good Wheatie, and certain caveats from Yours Truly, of which readers should be aware. They are linked here.
Today’s post includes several “puzzle pieces.” Each one is integral to the whole. Please bear with me. There is a General Summary at the end of the post.
To Begin: A post from our host, Wolf Moon: www.theqtree.com/2023/05/01/pfizer-and-moderna-vaccines-both-contain-the-prrarsv-key-to-the-cell-nucleus/. This post is one of several on the topic of the “PRRARSV Backdoor Key” that is present in both the Pfizer-BioNTech and in the Moderna modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines.” One of the papers cited in the post is “the Mehedi paper”, found here: https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2023.1073789. “Nuclear translocation of spike mRNA is a novel feature of SARS-CoV-2”, Masfique Mehedi, et al., 26 January 2023. This paper proves that the PRRARSV code in the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome is only there, and not in either the SARS-CoV virus genome or the MERS-CoV virus genome. There are links to other important papers in the Wolf Moon post. Yours Truly is grateful to our host for doing serious investigation into this subject.
There has been speculation that the PRRARSV code may be related to snake venom. This also has been discussed by our good host in other of his posts on the subject. While Yours Truly believes that some type of snake venom that contains all or some of the PRRARSV code may be in play, she has an additional hypothesis on the PRRARSV code presence in the modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” — and in the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself.
And, Now: May I present — the Pangolin (PAN-go-lin.)
Pangolins are shy, nocturnal mammals that are covered with scales; they are also called “scaly anteaters.” They resemble anteaters in body shape and length; however, Pangolins are covered with hard, keratin-like scales from the head to the tip of the tail. During the day, they remain in their burrows; at night, they emerge to hunt for and eat ants and termites. Their living habitat ranges from areas in Africa to India to southern Asia. As their meat, scales, and other body parts, are consumed as exotic foods, or are used in folk and traditional medicine in certain areas of the world, the Pangolin is listed as an endangered species. It is illegal to hunt or trap Pangolins, or to keep them as pets. However, because of their meat, scales, and other body parts, Pangolins are among the most-trafficked animals in the world (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangolin.)
The above image of a Pangolin is courtesy of the International Fund for Animal Welfare and Goggle Images.
Pangolins, like other animals, have coronaviruses. And here is where the story gets interesting. One such Pangolin coronavirus is “pangolin-CoV MP789.” It appears that the RBD (Receptor Binding Domain) is this virus has an “uncanny” similarity to the RBD of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. In fact, it is been posited that the RBD of the SARS-CoV-2 virus resulted from a “recombination” of those of the bat-CoV RaTG13 virus and the pangolin-CoV MP789 virus. Below is Figure 1 of the “Morales-Espinosa, et al. paper” on this subject:
The “Morales-Espinosa, et al. paper” is found here: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7450963/, “The receptor binding domain of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is the result of an ancestral recombination between the bat-CoV RatG13 and the pangolin-CoV MP789”, Rosario Morales-Espinosa, et al., 27 August 2020.
There is a plethora of scientific papers, articles, and scientific/medical blog posts related to the “probable” or “hypothetical” or “uncanny” similarity between Pangolin-CoV and SARS-CoV-2. Yours Truly will provide a sampling, below. Most of these papers, articles, and blog posts were written between 2020 and late 2022.
One: A scientific article by researchers in the CCP: www.cell.com/current-biology/pdf/S0960-9822(20)30360-2.pdf, “Probable Pangolin Origin of SARS-CoV-2 Associated with COVID-19 outbreak”, Tao Zhang, et al., 6 April 2020. A screenshot of part of the Conclusion of this article is below:
Two: Another 2020 paper, this one with an important mention in the Results section regarding the very high similarity of the S proteins in the pangolin-CoV genome and the SARS-CoV-2 genome: https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.ppat.1008421, “Are pangolins the intermediate host of the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2)?”, by Ping Liu, et al., 14 May 2020. A screenshot of the section of the Results is below:
Three: Another scientific paper from 2020: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.0707.184374. “Single source of pangolin CoVs with a near identical spike RBD to SARS-CoV-2”, Chan, Y.A., and Zhan, S.H., 31 October 2020. A screenshot from this paper is below:
Four: A scientific blog post: https://blog.3ds.com/brands/biovia/decoding-the-sars-cov-2-genome-origin/, “Decoding the SARS-CoV-2 Genomes—Origin”, by Niranjani Iyer, 6 April 2020. A screenshot from the post is below:
Recall that it is only recently that the “the SARS-CoV-2 virus came from nature”, “the SARS-CoV-2 virus came from the ‘wet markets’ in Wuhan” claims have been proven incorrect. While there are still scientific papers and articles being published to “prove” the “came from nature” claims, what these papers and articles do not seem to explore, in Yours Truly’s opinion, are the Gain-of-Function experiments with various coronaviruses (including the pangolin-CoVs) that took place at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in the process of lab-creating the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself. These Gain-of-Function experiments used elements found in nature (bat coronaviruses, civet coronaviruses, pangolin coronaviruses, rabbit coronaviruses, monkey coronaviruses, etc.) to “build” the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself. Here, for example, is a 2022 scientific article regarding the claims that the virus came from nature: www.science.org/content/article/evidence-suggests-pandemic-came-nature-not-lab-panel-says, “Evidence suggests pandemic came from nature, not a lab, panel says”, 10 October 2022, by Jon Cohen.
Which leads into the discussion of the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s experiments with pangolin coronaviruses.
In May 2024, the NIH finally admitted that the agency funded Gain-of-Function research at the WIV: https://nypost.com/2024/05/16/us-news/nih-director-admits-taxpayers-funded-gain-of-function-research-in-wuhan-four-years-after-covid-pandemic-began/, by Josh Christenson.
Here is the June 2023 report from the ODNI (Office of the Director of National Intelligence) regarding the Wuhan Institute of Virology and its activities: www.dni.gov/files/ODNI/documents/assessments/Report-on-Potential-Links-Between-the-Wuhan-Institute-of-Virology-and-the-Origins-of-COVID-19-20230623.pdf. Two screenshots from the Report are below:
It is obvious that the Wuhan Institute of Virology conducted coronavirus experiments with bats, civets, monkeys, and pangolins, in the process of creating the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Which leads to the next discussion, regarding PRRARSV and the furin cleavage site in the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome. Bear with Yours Truly here: this is an important piece of the puzzle.
PRRARSV is located at the S1-S2 furin cleavage site on the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome, from a scientific paper in September 2020: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lfs.2020.118056, “Structural features of coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 spike protein: Targets for vaccination”. by Ariane Sternberg and Cord Naujokat, 15 September 2020. A screenshot from section 2 of this paper is below:
The redoubtable Walter M Chesnut expands on this, and how PRRARSV assists in the translocation of the modRNA spike protein in the SARS-CoV-2 virus into every cell in the human body: https://wmcresearch.substack.com/p/prrarsv-the-furin-cleavage-site-a. “PRRARSV—The Furin Cleavage Site: A Nuclear Localization Signal that Translocates the Spike and its mRNA to the Nucleus Inducing H3.3 histone Deposition and Rapid Aging”, 10 April 2023. Below is the National Cancer Institute definition of a histone (www.cancer.gov/publications/dictionaries/cancer-terms/def/histone):
In other words, the PRRARSV present in the SARS-CoV-2 virus enters the cell, assists the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus to enter the nucleus of the cell, and interferes with the H3.3 histone in the DNA of the cell.
But wait, there’s more about histone3.3! it interacts with the human body at the mitochondrial level: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbrc/2014.06.050, “Post-translational modification and mitochondrial relocalization of histone H3 during apoptosis induced by staurosporine”, Hasan Koc, et al., 18 July 2014. Staurosporine is a “protein kinase inhibitor”: www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/staurosporine. Please refer back to the blog post by Mr. Chesnut — it appears that PRRARSV has a role in aging the human body at the mitochondrial level. See also: www.theqtree.com/2023/10/28/the-covid-19-virus-and-the-modrna-covid-19-vaccines-induce-accelerated-aging/.
There are four “inserts” that were introduced into the SARs-CoV-2 virus genome during the process that lab-created the SARS-CoV-2 virus. These four “inserts” were first isolated and described in the “Pradhan paper” from 2020. This paper was Retracted and suppressed almost as soon as it appeared. However, it can be found here: https://medicalveritas/org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Pradhan-et-al-Coronavirus-HIV-paper.pdf. A screenshot of Table 1. from the paper is below. The “PRRAR” code is “Insert 4”:
In addition, Figure 2. of this paper has the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome spelled out, with the position of each of the four “inserts.”
This leads to further proof that the PRRARSV code is indeed part of the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself. For example: https://jessicar.substack.com/p/it-turns-out-that-the-prrarsv-motif, “It turns out that the “PRRRARSV” motif is more than a furin-cleavage site”, 1 October 2022. Dr. Rose performed her own analysis of the PRRARSV code in the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome. She proves that the PRRARSV code is indeed the fourth “insert” into the virus genome. A screenshot of her analysis is below:
What does this all mean? It means the following:
General Summary:
One: The Pangolin, a shy, nocturnal mammal that is covered in keratin-like scales and eats ants and termites, also is prone to having a coronavirus, called pangolin-CoV. This virus has a genome code that is “quite similar” in some ways to the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself genome code. One of these “similarities” is a genome code called “RRSV” or “PRRAR”, depending on the research paper on the topic.
Two: There are four “unique inserts” in the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself genome. The fourth “insert” is the PRRARSV code. The PRRARSV code interferes with the important H3.3 histone in the DNA of every cell in the body of the person who is infected by SARS-CoV-2 (the COVID-19 virus) or who is infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself.
Three: The PRRARSV code was possibly derived from experiments with a type of snake venom; unless otherwise proven, it certainly was derived from experiments with the pangolin-CoV genome code.
Four: The experiments with the PRRARSV code were conducted at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in the process of the lab-creation of the SARS-CoV-2 virus itself.
Five: Since the COVID-19 “vaccines” use the Wuhan Hu1 SARS-CoV-2 virus itself as the basis for these injectables, the PRRARSV code is therefore present in these “vaccines.” This means that all persons who have ever taken a COVID-19 “vaccine” have been exposed to the PRRARSV code. To date, nobody knows exactly how long the ingredients and mechanisms of the COVID-19 “vaccines” remain at work in the “vaccinated” person’s body. In fact, the COVID-19 “vaccines” are designed to trick the “vaccinated” person’s body into thinking it has a COVID-19 virus infection, forcing the “vaccinated” person’s body to make large amounts of antibodies to fight off the “fake COVID-19 infection”: www.brandeis.edu/magazine/2020/fall/inquiry/vaccine.html, “On the cusp of a COVID-19 Vaccine”, by Lawrence Goodman. A screenshot from the article is below, quoting Dr. Drew Weissman of the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine:
Six: Un-vaccinated” persons who contract a COVID-19 virus itself infection, and are therefore exposed to the PRRARSV code, can still mitigate and/or defeat the effects of the damage done by the virus itself if the person has a healthy immune system. On the other hand, COVID-19 “vaccinated” persons, in addition to being exposed to the PRRARSV code present in the “vaccines”, are also exposed to the other ingredients in the “vaccines”, such as N1-Methylpseudourdine. N1-Methylpseudouridine replaces the natural Uridine in the “vaccinated” person’s body, and also evades the natural immune system components and mechanisms in the COVID-19 “vaccinated” person’s body. COVID-19 “vaccinated” persons therefore have their natural immune systems damaged or destroyed, making it difficult or even impossible to mitigate and/or defeat the damage done by the “vaccines.”
Yours Truly will posit, based on the research and writing that she has been engaged in about the COVID-19 virus itself, and the COVID-19 “vaccines”, since March 2020: that any un-“vaccinated” person, of any age, who has had a COVID-19 virus itself infection; or, any person, of any age, who has had a COVID-19 “vaccine” put into their body — has been injured by the negative effects of the virus itself, or by the negative effects of the “vaccines.” In addition, COVID-19 virus itself infected persons, and COVID-19 “vaccinated” persons, have died from the effects of the infection or the “vaccine.” One will also say that the COVID-19 “vaccines” have added ingredients and mechanisms that make these injectables more dangerous and deadly than the COVID-19 virus itself. Finally, the outcomes of infection by the COVID-19 virus itself, and the negative outcomes from taking the COVID-19 “vaccines”, were, and are, planned and intentional.
It is now, in Yours Truly’s opinion, imperative that all persons make it their business to have and to maintain their natural immune system in the best possible condition.
It is now time to bring to account all of the multiple agencies, scientists, and other entities involvement (including the United States military) in the development of the lab-created SARS-CoV-2 virus itself: of the COVID-19 “vaccines”; and in the processes that resulted in the granting of Emergency Use Authorization and/or Full Approval of these “vaccines” without proper protocol adherence to rigorous testing and clinical trials for the said “vaccines.” It is now time to stop all further use of any COVID-19 “vaccine” until the above accountability is fully undertaken and finished, It is now time for all government agencies, medical organizations, and medical practitioners to recognize that Ivermectin and Hydroxycholoquine are inexpensive and vastly effective treatments for COVID-19 infection and for COVID-19 infection prophylaxis. It is now time to stop the use of Paxlovid and Remdesivir as “officially approved” treatment for COVID-19 infection, as both of these drugs have significant negative side effects, including a high “rebound COVID infection” rate for Paxlovid, and kidney damage and/or death for Remdesivir; and to substitute the use of Ivermectin or Hydroxycholoquine.

It’s Back Door Friday.
Let’s all learn something.
Is this a message from NAMBLA?
No, you Silly Valley perv. It’s a play on the title to today’s effort.
😉 😎

Thank you.
You’re correct. What’s going on here is that BOTH the COVID-19 virus itself, AND the COVID-19 “vaccines”, contain the same element—the PRRARSV code “backdoor key” which iets allows entry to the cells of the human body.
I suspect that there are additional “shared elements.”
So I think a fair argument can be made that the term “modRNA” is the correct term for the RNA mixture in BOTH the virus itself, and the “vaccines.”
This article is a real OH! SCHIFF! Since it means not only the Clot Shot but the actual virus was a bio-weapon.
Now we know why the Cabal is gunning for vitamin D and other supplements!
Gail Combs
Thank you, you are very kind.
Correct.
Both the COVID-19 virus itself, AND the COVID-19 “vaccines” are bioweapons.
The COVID-19 virus itself was designed to damage all of humankind.
The COVID-19 “vaccines” were/are designed to assist in depopulation.
I thought “we” had established quite a while back that Covid 19 was the weak bio-weapon being used to usher in the very strong bio-weapon Covid shot 🙁
59 days, 11 hours and 37 minutes til our Once and Future President is restored to his rightful office.
But who’s counting?
I’m not actively counting, but it does my heart good to see a smaller count than the last time I looked.
It’s in the 50s now instead of the 60s.
For some Jan 20th will be like a 2nd Christmas!
YUP!
Can’t happen soon enogh.
I am counting. That is, I have put a down-counter on the shelf in front of me. The one that I put together out of various bits and pieces, back before the turn of the millenium in order to count down the remaining days of 1999 before the big rollover.
It is now showing 059.
I presume it flips at noon, Eastern time?
It is current synced with UTC and changes on midnight UTC.
But you’re right, it should really change over on noon EST, or 1200 UTC-5, so 1700 UTC. It has now been re-set.
In order to fact check those who really are counting I have to do some fast mental arithmetic in another time zone. Eeek; if I never make a mistake between now and then it will be nothing less than a miracle.
Leverage against her?

Wow!

How many lobbyists actually register under FARA if they represent foreign entities?
I’m seriously thinking the more dirt that’s dug up on her, the less likely it is she goes the distance.
Is this really dirt or does this look more like following the law.
Afterall she was always defending Trump even defending him in the Impeachment trial.
She also did not get wobbly after Jan 6 and didn’t become a Never-Trumper like so many others who were supposed to be MAGA.
There’s all sorts of stuff surfacing tonight on Twitter/X. Foreign lobbyist, the Trayvon Martin case, etc. I suspect that’s going to crescendo in the coming days.
Dirt?
Following the law.
Combat trafficking?
Who knew that was dirt. 🙃
well I checked the topics at tcth this morning– at one point, some dude was apoplectic about her nomination.
Prolly pissed off, Trump didn’t seek his (SD) supreme advice.
he was focused on the treyvon martin case which was his bread and butter in the beginning i believe…
I commented about this here. too, under where TT shared the document. Take a look, it might interest you.
Well, now, hold on a sec.
“Consultant” is Ballard Partners. “Key Personnel” are Pam Bondi and James Rubin.
“Consultant” was paid $115,000 a month, NOT Pam Bondi. Bondi was an EMPLOYEE of the the law firm, Ballard Partners. SHE didn’t receive $115,000 a month; the firm did.
This is more of Sundance’s hair-on-fire clickbait nonsense. He’s running with this full out.
He is really, really pissing me off lately. His reading comprehension skills suck. He thinks he “knows something,” and goes off on a tirade.
Remember, he thought (still thinks) J.D. Vance is a Deep State/Intelligence mole.
Ballard Partners is the consultant, so I’m guessing they were receiving $115,000 a month and that was distributed out.
I didn’t realize that. I don’t read over there because of similar positions and attitudes he’s held in the past. There’s a lot less stress that way.
I still read there–99% of what I read are just the comments. some people bring interesting tweets and memes.
his hubris is a big detractor on his articles
Years ago, I read there mostly for the comments too. I just can’t do it anymore.
lotta scrolling when i’m there…lol
Same here. Once you see his MO, you cannot unsee it.
Yeah, Pam Bondi wasn’t getting all that money.
I take the hit and read over there, particularly the comments, because the fool has quite a bit of reach, and I want to know what he’s up to. And yes, it is very stressful.
What he is up to is CO (controlled Opp) IMHO.
Seems like it.
Controlled opposition….
Distraction on the right. Clean up in aisle 6.
Yup.
I think you might be correct!
BINGO!
Remember that he once just decided to “fill in the blanks” on a redacted document, finding a name that “fit” and deciding that was who the culprit was.
The problem is he used a totally different font, so his assessment as to “fit” was off. Plus, multiple people might fit even if the “fitting” was done correctly.
Oh, yes, I remember. I debunked the heck out of it, using the correct fonts and sizes.
Sundance is gonna Sundance. He is always “right” just ask him. Hint, he is about ass right as a broken clock …WITH NO HANDS IE never.
One of those very fortuitous typos. He is indeed “ass right”.
Actually he’s nothing like a clock with no hands. A clock with no hands would be an improvement.
When you look at a clock with no hands, you get no answer, and you know you haven’t learned anything. He’s quite different from that, he’ll give you an answer (a wrong one) and (this is key) some will believe it.
Lol!
*They* can’t be trusted with gain of function research because they are either incompetent and will let deadly pathogens escape into the population, or they will let them out on purpose.
Yup. We need some GOF prosecutions, IMO, to put the fear of G_d in the people who would soup up microbes against humans.
THE BIGGIE is they were in a level 2 lab NOT a level 4!
Biosafety Levels 1, 2, 3 & 4: What’s the Difference?
[QUOTE]
Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2)Biosafety level 2 (BSL-2) covers all laboratories that work with agents associated with human diseases — that is, pathogenic or infectious organisms — that pose a moderate health hazard. Common examples of agents found in a BSL-2 lab include equine encephalitis viruses, HIV, and staphylococcus aureus (staph infections).
BSL-2 labs are required to maintain the same standard microbial practices as BSL-1 labs, as well as enhanced measures due to the potential risk the aforementioned microbes pose. Personnel working in biosafety level 2 laboratories are expected to take even greater care to prevent injuries, such as cuts and other breakage to the skin, as well as ingestion and mucous membrane exposures.
In addition to the safety protocols established for BSL-1 labs, BSL-2 labs are subject to the following safety controls:
Access to a biosafety level 2 lab is far more restrictive than to a biosafety level 1 lab. Outside personnel, or those with an increased risk of contamination, are often restricted from entering the area while work is underway.
Biosafety Level 3 (BSL-3)Once again building on the two prior biosafety levels, a biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) laboratory typically conducts research into or work on microbes that are either indigenous or exotic and can cause serious or potentially lethal disease through inhalation. Common examples of microbes found in BSL-3 labs include yellow fever, West Nile virus, and the bacteria that causes tuberculosis.
Microbes found within biosafety level 3 settings are so serious that work is often strictly controlled and registered through the appropriate government agencies. Laboratory personnel are also under medical surveillance and may require immunizations for the microbes they work with.
Common safety controls within a BSL-3 lab include:
Access to a BSL-3 laboratory is restricted and controlled at all times.
Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4)Biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) labs are rare; however, a small number exist in the U.S. and around the world. As the highest level of biological safety, BSL-4 labs work with highly dangerous and exotic microbes, such as the Ebola and Marburg viruses. Infections caused by these types of microbes are often fatal and come without treatment or vaccines.
In addition to biosafety level 3 considerations, biosafety level 4 laboratories must follow these safety protocols:
BSL-4 labs are extremely isolated, often located in an isolated and restricted zone of a building or in a separate building entirely. BSL-4 labs also feature a dedicated supply of exhaust air, as well as vacuum lines and decontamination systems.
[UNQUOTE]
Study: 75% of biosafety level 4 labs have low or medium biosecurity and biosafety levels
MAD SCIENTISTS France ‘warned Wuhan lab could be turned into a ‘biological arsenal’ by Chinese military four years before Covid ‘leak
Is it possible that they deliberately chose to use a less safe lab so as to give the impression they were not working on something so deadly dangerous.
Bearing in mind that not just the Fouci crowd but the regime across the board are criminal chancers.
Possible, if they were originally dealing with viruses that are exclusive to animals.
Yup.
It has been proven there were over 40 bioweapon labs scattered about Ukraine with a bunch of Nazis in charge. Add in Taiwan and other locations around the globe such as throughout Africa. To think they were operated at biosafety levels required for our nation is absurd. IMO, they were located in those other areas to avoid all that and more.
All the more reason why they fear PDJT and now RFKJ anywhere near their “research.”
Gail Combs
Yes.
And the USDA lab at the center of the current H5N1 Avian Influenza situation is, IIRC, a BSL-2.

One of the replies to the above:
Now (after she’s confirmed) name Matt Gaetz special prosecutor to investigate corruption within the House and Senate.
What a GREAT idea!
We need multiple Special Prosecutors.
Well, we should revisit the Trayvon Martin – George Zimmerman episode. She should definitely be asked to explain her actions at that time.
The guy looked guilty as hell for a while. It was her job to prosecute him. Turned out he was innocent. That’s what it looks like to me.
Sounds to me like she was doing her job.
Bondi was not the Prosecutor…she was the Florida State Atty…she & Gov Rick Scott appointed Angela Corey to be Special Prosecutor, I forget the lead prosecutor’s name…Bernie de la Rionda ?
This comment of mine could be totally off base because I’m not going back and revisiting all of that. If the objection is that Bondi wanted to arrest Zimmerman (which I’m not sure about), I doubt the Dems would object to her going after him. Once again it’s our side tearing down the nominee.
Here are quotes from Bondi in this CNN article:
https://www.cnn.com/2012/03/30/justice/florida-teen-shooting/index.html
Seems like Bondi will be an excellent AG.
Uniparty.
just like Susie Wiles who brought her aboard…
Bondi was a co-lobbyist with Wiles in Florida..
and…
Bondi is the sister of the lawyer who is representing Elon Musk/Tesla for securities fraud, an ongoing investigation.
as unpopular as this might sound here, I am very uncomfortable with the way PDJT seems to be surrounding himself with a lot of conflicts of interest in some of his choices…
not only Bondi but, more glaringly…
Elon Musk
particularly with Musk’s position in DOGE.
BTW, kinda interesting….that term DOGE has existed for a very long time, way before Musk starting jumping on stage recently…
Doge was the title, in 7/8 century Venetian Republic, for the nobility’s selection for the only Venetian authority to hold such authority for life…
an oligarchy, IOW.
https://palazzoducale.visitmuve.it/en/the-museum/doges-palace/the-doge/
doesn’t that name DOGE , by the aerobic jumping Musk, come across as just a bit unseemly …esp in light of how things are lining up ?
yep you can color me real skeptical about the lack of wisdom being shown…so far.
the lack of true populism.

Like a cat on a hardwood floor, Pennsylvania Democrats are now trying to cover up their rampant election cheating. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/democrat-bob-casey-concedes-pennsylvania-senate-race-dave-mccormick-ending-recount
Busy protecting the Election Cheat for future use no doubt.
oh for sure it’s to cover so they can do it next time.
Scott Pressler told Bucks County commissioners, he’s gunning for their seats next year.
I wonder how the stock price will perform once senior management is in the dock.
Are the senior management selling already?
That’s an interesting question.
Fake news trying to be important again and backfired immediately.
It was just JD Vance security detail.
It shows you how lazy these reporters (Propagandists) have become.

The weather is being quite peculiar. Normally, weather blows in from our northwest and gil00 gets it in two or three days. Right now, we had weather blow in and stop in Santa Rosa…..and we haven’t gotten it in two or three days. Santa Rosa is about a two hours’ drive north of here, and gil00 is about a nine hours’ drive to the south, but the weather has just been weirdly stalled.
I see on the SoCal TV channels that they’re going “it’s coming; it’s coming!” — but it hasn’t really even gotten here yet. I just poked my head out the front door because I couldn’t tell whether it was rain or blowing wind from inside the garage — it’s blowing wind.
In the meantime, the poor bastards in Santa Rosa have been getting it like a cow pissing on a flat rock. They’re poised to break 120-year rainfall records — they’re already close.
Great. More water run off, down the river, into the Pacific.
So Silly Valley cows get flat rocks to piss on?
Why? No, don’t answer that. Moving right along now.
Worth the 11 minutes watching Mayorkas dance around to facts presented by these 2 Senators.
AND Matt Gaetz…
NOTHING tangible happens. Never. Ever.
Talk. Talk. Talk. Letters. More letters. Stern letters.
R-Cons are a bad joke.
Unfortunately they have little power since it is up to the FBI to investigate and the DOJ to indict.
That is why I like Ivan Raiklin’s suggestion of using the state courts instead.
Agree. State courts. Somebody, Do Something, beside talk.
Perhaps, reduce or cut funding. Novel idea or dumbass sound bite.
Impeach the assholes.
I really hope Biden’s Cabinet gets impeached right out of the starting gate. Remember they do not automatically get removed Jan 20th.
Impeachment is most appropriate.
We both know the odds of it happening.
Uniparty….
Should. But many of the govs and legislatures are afraid of the loss of fed funds and favors in other areas of need as reprisal. Add in those who are compromised by the IC. It all works in collusion because it is a criminal enterprise.
Brandon showed the world how it all works with the holding back funds from Ukraine if they did not fire the prosecutor.
Earlier on I watched both of the above vids, doing a last read through now see both have been removed.
😂 😂 😂 They obviously upset somebody who needed upsetting 😂 😂 😂
That’s 11 minutes I don’t get to use for eye feasting. 🙄
There are some among us who wish the worst miscreants to experience fire ants. Turns out, there is an alternative — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendrocnide_moroides .
BOTH!
Since last night my wife has admonished me a dozen times: trust Trump! And I listen to my wife.
I came here first thing this morning to see the reaction, and saw Wolf’s endorsement. That was a strengthener for my wife’s admonishment.
Gratz to Gaetz for being realistic.
And this all comes down to RINOs, who are the reality.
And that comes down to Steve’s ongoing admonition. The game ultimately is being played in the state level Republican politics. That is where MAGA activism needs to take place.
But I will add my 2 cents. All the emphasis on how effective Bondi will be on opioids is confirmation of the worst suspicions of how ineffective she will be on getting justice for the Deep State. Typical Deep State mind-screwing, gaslighting displacement.
Unless I missed something.
Time is short. This is for all the marbles. Trump is lead.
Gotta get to the starting block, January 20th.
I can very much see Gaetz being deliberately used as the lightening rod. Bondi may have been the plan all along.
You are right. Not a day should be wasted. Bondi might be the only realistic possibility among those who are actually loyal to Trump.
And she may very well be great.
I think we may have to accept another reality, too.
There may be those who would be great for a position, but who are unwilling to take the risk of having their lives DESTROYED by the dastardly left in exchange.
Bondi was willing, so I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt.
Think about this. It will Bondi’s job to PROSECUTE and greenlight the trials/investigations. It will be the FBI director’s job (Patel) to initiate, investigate, and provide prosecutable evidence TO Bondi, she will then do what she does…PROSECUTE to the fullest extent.
Now who cleans the crap out, may be yet ANOTHER post, Asst AG?
She is not pure. Neither is Rick Scott.
We will have to see whether it matters for Bondi.
Remember Pam is not the only one Trump is appointing.
He has already announced Deputy Director and Assistent Director and Solicitor General and a quite a few more. Several of them were actually defending him in the sham trials.
hmmmmm…from a different post
JD Vance
@JDVance
I’m extremely grateful for the work Matt put into the nomination process. He made his decision to withdraw entirely out of respect for President Trump’s administration. Matt is a patriot and I look forward to seeing what he does next.
to which Gaetz responded…
Matt Gaetz
@mattgaetz
Thank you, Mr. VP-Elect! I look forward to continuing the fight to save our country. Just maybe from a different post
I’m guessing that could include being a Senator if there’s nothing else on the table.
Guessing Gaetz will have to win a Senate election.
I don’t see DeSantis selecting Gaetz for Lil Marco seat. Guessing some bad blood from Rhonda’s WH dreams.
Remember, Gaetz and Trump have a “secret” I do not think we know what that is yet.

You can not control someone if you can not get a ‘handle’ on him. So Trump is NOT giving them stuff they can use to manipulate him.

ThankQ!
OOOOoooooh, It does have some goodies as I thought it might.
Well, he is correct in a way, The SILENT MAJORITY was Darn sick and tired of being BULLIED into being silent. To being bullied and shamed and screamed into conforming with PROGRESSIVE fantasies.
Oh good grief! The conclusions they draw are laughable.
Now you see why I wanted to read that article. They are so FAR off base it is hilarious!
The Atlantic mag, enough said!
They have no idea who Trump is. It’s hilarious, and it explains why they’re so ineffective against him.
Thankful here.
Yes!
The Guardian needs to put fresh batteries in its vibrator, crawl into its sleeping bag, and zip it all the way up.
That should be a vast improvement of the media.
Especially if the sleeping bag is airtight and can’t be unzipped from the inside.
AND it is summer weight and located on the Mt Everest peak.
No need for that…they’d last less than an hour as it is.
I mean seriously, what would DOGE say about having to ship a sack of shit to Mount Everest?
contemptible 😡
From your lips to God’s ears, PAVACA. Amazing research you have consistently provided us. Please allow me to express my greatest appreciation for your work and caring to share it with the world.
AMEN!!!

Thank you, you are very kind.
Hear, hear!
Well, I read the Sundance post on Bondi.
Is there any dispute that Bondi was essential to framing an innocent man, Zimmerman?
And was thereby a major contributor to the bogus racial hatred which has plagued this country?
And is thereby susceptible to blackmail by the IC, who perfectly understand in detail that Bondi was essential to framing an innocent man in a George Floyd type of operation?
This one?
AG Nominee Pam Bondi and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles – Ballard Partners Law Firm, Lobbyists
I don’t buy a word Sundance says.
Her job was to prosecute an accused man. Zimmerman turned out to be innocent of the crime. But he was shady as hell, and looked guilty for a while. She did her job.
Prosecutors aren’t super-human. They are working with the evidence and appearance they have. Was Zimmerman framed, or did he just look guilty until he wasn’t?
Actually, it was the county prosecutor’s job and he said there is no evidence to prove a crime. She decided to take away his authority and do it herself. As he said, there wasn’t enough evidence.
She needs to explain her actions.
I think it was from the pressure from the Obama admin and the screaming of the left.
Because the NAME was Zimmerman, the case was picked as an election year ‘Show’ in order to gin up the Black vote. They really stepped in it when they found out he was Hispanic and even part Black. However they STILL had to run with the screaming headlines.
Right you are. But if your first sentence worked then, why would we assume it wouldn’t be used again at the most awkward moment?
That she will CAVE?
Hopefully she learned a hard lesson and developed a backbone.
Maybe she will.
Bondi is also a second amendment hawk.
We’ll see how long she lasts. Like I told a friend this morning, given the way the first term went at AG, I doubt she’s going to be in that spot long, if confirmed, or even if the nomination gets to hearings.
No doubt in my mind. 🙁

Which is how this will go. Quietly increasing as the media propagandists deflect the public using the crisis of the moment to distract.
At some point we all have to make decisions on who and what we trust. There is no purity in any of our own personal histories, so I do not expect it in Donald Trump’s or any of his cabinet selections. It is fine to observe their patterns and certain disqualifying events, just keep them in perspective and realize you may not have complete and accurate information.
My first piece of advice is to quit trusting the opinions of those who have ulterior motives for gaining your interest and support in their thoughts and beliefs. Such as clicks and wasting brain cells.
My MAGA support has never been built on Donald Trump. If you even breezed through one of my BIMD’s or American Stories you know that. We need this republic to stand on the Constitution and rule of law regardless of who the players are, including ourselves. We owe it to the founders, the patriots of the ages, our families, our communities, our states and to the Lord God Almighty Himself who granted us this opportunity to be lights to the world after our dedication (in writing) of our existence as a country to Him.
In the current MAGA efforts we need to trust PDT and do our parts in ways that it all works out for God’s glory and the betterment of the citizens of our nation. He clearly demonstrated we can trust him up to even death. He earned the trust until proven otherwise. It is not my assignment to vet PDT’s cabinet – it is his as well as Congress.
My job is to hold all of them in account for doing it well in accordance with the MAGA principles and platform. To be able to do that means the election system in this country needs to reflect the accurate votes of those who are legal voters. That is on all of us as citizens to hold accountable and enforce. Which should tell all of us to get involved, just as our Steve did and in any other ways that will clean it up permanently. Without it, MAGA cannot MAGA as it should.
Steps down from the podium…
I think we’re in that season where the Trump gravity is disturbing the equilibrium of the solar system.
And yes, don’t pay attention to the opinionerati . . . they don’t know anything better than we do except how to monetize an audience. My eyeballs and readership aren’t for sale.
Accountability matters and we all know it’s overdue.
michaelh
Yes. It’s about “not being for sale.”
Love the “opinionerati.”
Nicely said! 🪐

Press Release:
Attorney General Ken Paxton Opens Investigation Into Possible Conspiracy by Advertising Companies to Boycott Certain Social Media Platforms
AUSTIN – Attorney General Ken Paxton sent a civil investigative demand to the World Federation of Advertisers (“WFA”) as part of an ongoing investigation into a potential anticompetitive scheme to withhold advertising dollars from certain social media platforms.
Attorney General Paxton is investigating a possible coordinated plan or conspiracy to withhold advertising dollars from certain social media platforms by pressuring advertisers not to purchase online advertising space. Although companies are free to choose when and where they want to advertise, a conspiracy among companies along these lines can result in harm to competition and may violate the Texas Free Enterprise and Antitrust Act of 1983. The civil investigative demand requests documents and information related to WFA and its sub-organization known as the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (“GARM”) organizing their membership to potentially boycott social media platforms that are deemed to violate their “Brand Safety Standards.”
“It is completely unacceptable and un-American that the Department of Justice under the Biden Administration failed to enforce antitrust laws against its perceived political allies,” said Attorney General Paxton. “Trade organizations and companies cannot collude to block advertising revenue from entities they wish to undermine. Today’s document request is part of an ongoing investigation to hold WFA and its members accountable for any attempt to rig the system to harm organizations they might disagree with.”
Press Release:
Attorney General Ken Paxton Urges Court to Prevent Jack Smith from Destroying Records Detailing Baseless Prosecution of President Trump After Paper Shredding Truck Seen Outside DOJ
AUSTIN – Attorney General Ken Paxton urged a federal court to grant an emergency motion for a preservation motion to prevent the U.S. Department of Justice from destroying any records concerning the baseless prosecution of President Donald Trump by Special Prosecutor Jack Smith.
On November 8, Attorney General Paxton filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) for records related to Jack Smith’s unconstitutional investigation and sued DOJ to prevent the destruction of any of those documents. Then, photographs surfaced showing a paper shredding truck parked outside DOJ headquarters. Attorney General Paxton has requested that the court order DOJ to preserve all documents and cease any efforts to destroy records that could be vital to the public interest.
The filing explained: “This Court has the authority to protect public trust by ensuring transparency. Jack Smith’s investigation was a political and legal abomination; the public must be able to learn what actually happened. And Jack Smith’s team must not be permitted to avoid accountability.”
“The American people demand transparency and I will do everything in my power to hold the Biden Administration accountable for weaponizing the justice system to interfere with President Trump’s re-election campaign,” said Attorney General Paxton. “The Department of Justice must preserve all records detailing their perverse, baseless and un-American lawfare against President Trump.”

Hopefully President Trump will be properly briefed on this. But with this Swamp one never knows.
Johnson needs to grow a pair, and impeach Maggot.
No I do not care that Maggot is gone in ~59 days. Don’t care the Senate won’t convict. Don’t care that Kakala is charitably a figure head.
Raise hell. Get folks attention. After all, It Is Only A Pending World War III.
Other than that, No big Fucking deal.
I’m with you.
Wonder why the long delay… ?
Thanks for posting. I also meant to highlight.
Uh, is it really an emergency AND this is the way you treat emergencies.
Ukraine-NATO Council, has not seen the football since kickoff. 🤔
Right before Thanksgiving Day.
Lots of fed employees taking the entire week off.
Coincidence?
Note to American automakers if you actually believe this. GO POUND SAND.
https://thelibertydaily.com/u-s-automakers-think-theyre-beyond-point-no/
No subsidies for anything – period. Make whatever you make well and charge a price people are willing to pay, or, go out of business. Somebody will take your place that wants to make money and serve the public.
This is not hard. Take the money (bribes) out of politics and a lot of this silliness goes away. That these idiots chose to do what a politician “mandated” is a reflection they were in cahoots with said politician(s).
If Trump were to scrap the initiative, major automakers fear they could be undercut by smaller manufacturers producing cheaper, internal combustion engine cars.
Trump can AND should kill the EV mandate.The initiative, whatever that is, is stoopid.
Three of the country’s largest automakers, Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis, are already lobbying Trump against scrapping the rules.
Ford, GM and Stellantis made a poor business decision. Suck on it.Some had hoped that one of the biggest proponents of electric cars, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, would be able to sway Trump to keep those rules in place, but now, his priorities seem to be cutting regulations. He expressed opposition to the $7,500 tax credit for buyers of electric cars, saying he opposes all subsidies.
“In my view, we should end all government subsidies, including those for E.V.’s, oil and gas,” Musk said last week.
Elon nailed it. END ALL SUBSIDIES. ALL. And, No Bailouts.
agreed–everyone is getting subsidies and bailouts because they’re too big to fail. well they ain’t too big to be stupid. it’s not like they didn’t have a few years to study the markets and the trends–and the terrible incidents of EV’s catching fire…smh.
I’ve always believed if the auto industry would offer a vehicle (car or truck) with no eltronic goodies, except to run the engine, they wouldn’t be able to make enough of them.
No AC, power windows, info centers, ect. with a price tag to match.
But those pesky vehicle regulations……..
the only thing my Jeep has is air conditioning. no power windows, seats, back up camera nonsense. she DOES have an anti theft system–not supposed to be able to hot wire it. no key, no start. she’s gonna be 19 yrs old in February and I get offers all the time to buy her. nope.
1987, 1992 & 1993. My dodges with Cummins diesels are always getting offers to buy.
You’d be happy with a 2024 Amish Buggy deluxe. The engine only has OAT electronics which are very rugged.
I actually have an antique bike axle buggy (1800s) and a surrey complete with fringe.
The buggy has single horse shafts or a pony pole. I used to drive it with a matched pair of red chestnut Shetlands. (Shetlands don’t need oats, they get fat on grass.)
It’s getting bad around here. I can’t even crack a joke without somebody throwing a bucket of ‘literal’ on it.
Could it be, neither acknowledging the funny or ignoring it.
Simply a tangent of sorts.
Oh wait, it was another joke. Forget what I started this post with.
I told you I make a great straight man!
i agree. They could not build them fast enough.
I want something like my old 1963 Chevy Pk-Up. Carburetor, no computer and you could sit on the wheel well and work on the engine because the engine compartment wasn’t crammed full of crap that breaks.
Good times.
IDK…I’ve kind of gotten addicted to opening the back gate by pushing a button, and the back-up camera.
And the seat heater…Sirius X FM radio…defroster on the rear windshield….
Back up cameras are a near necessity if you’re driving a high vehicle…it’s possible to back into children simply because you can’t see them.
Which brings us to why are so many vehicles gargantuan these days? People often cite that they are safer…but even though THEY may be safer (dubious because those half ton pickups do NOT have crumple zones to absorb impacts) the people around them are not.
Meanwhile I got so sick and tired of having those damn truck headlights in my eyes I had to buy a crossover. The extra few inches makes all the difference in the world.
Backing out around them is a total PITA.
I nearly hit someone backing out a few months ago. His small pickup was literally not visible over the bed of the monster next to me.
Steve,
I make it a policy to ALWAYS back my pick-ups into a parking space or better yet park well away from the stores just because of the possibility of hitting a child.
At least if you BACK into the spot you get to check it out before hand and the likelihood of a child suddenly appearing in the parking spot is slim. FWIW this was mandated to the driver-employees of a company my horse trainer worked for.
I think AC would be needed in certain parts of the country. But I agree with the rest. I bet someone does it one day.
AC, at least doesn’t involve the intrusive phone-home electronics. (Or it doesn’t have to).
Much like rear window defrosters.
Try living in the Midwest in summer without AC.
Actually I live in NC & drive a black diesel PK up without A/C. Doing 1 to 8 hours of messing with ponies and then having to climb into that black pick-up to drive 1 to 2 hrs home in 90 to 100+F with high humidity? BRUTAL!
We have not had central heat or air in the house for over a decade either.
Thank goodness the 100+ weather seems to have disappeared with the Grand Solar Maximum.
yikes
Trump Considers Warsh Serving as Treasury Secretary—and Then Fed Chair
President-elect floated the idea during a Wednesday meeting with the former Fed governor
https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-considers-warsh-serving-as-treasury-secretaryand-then-fed-chair-827207e0
President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly considering former Federal Reserve board member Kevin Warsh for Treasury Secretary, with an understanding he could later be nominated as Federal Reserve chair when Jerome Powell’s term ends in 2026. Trump is also reportedly considering Scott Bessent as head of the National Economic Council, and later Treasury Secretary if Warsh becomes Fed Chair.

I gotta have a bit of a rant, sorry in advance.
Does anybody believe Trump didn’t know that Matt Gaetz for AG was a reach? We all liked him, but we all understand that we are pretty far to the right here, don’t we? He wasn’t going to be confirmed. Trump had to know that from the beginning. So why didn’t he stick it out and force a recess appointment? 4D chess again? I take leave to doubt it.
We all know that the Deep State is embedded like a tick in America’s ear, surely? The only question I have is, will Trump have the EXTREME lack of empathy required to pull the tick out. Will he? I honestly don’t know. I take leave to doubt it.
Because that kind of cold killer attitude is rough. Can Trump totally disregard the mental breakdown of 30% of Americans, as he dismantles their pipe dreams? Can he watch as many of America’s young people jump off a bridge, literally? I don’t know that he can.
I once had to pull a giant shard of glass from the bottom of my three-year-old daughter’s foot, while she screamed and flailed. It took five minutes of complete disregard for another person’s pain and terror. It was brutal; I did it, and I shook for the rest of the day, through the visit to the doctor all the way until bedtime. Another time, I witnessed a shocking accident where an old man (I later learned he was 80) was hit by a car. I sat with him, kept him from moving and harming himself more, watched him bleed and scream, and essentially ignored his agony as he lay on the pavement, all done for his good, of course. I’ll admit, I drank myself to sleep that night.
Can Trump be that cold for four years? FOUR YEARS?
Trump is a good, decent, kind human being. I believe he is doing his best. I also think it would take a sociopath to ignore all that he will have to ignore to transform our country back into something a Gen-X’er like me would recognize. I greatly fear that in his compassion for others, he won’t be able to do it.
Rant over.
Excellent point.
Aubergine
I understand.
IMO, the best possible scenario for POTUS47 is that he, and his administration, are a combination of “coldness” and compassion.
As in, the “coldness” and compassion of a highly-skilled surgeon preparing to operate.
A highly-trained surgeon must have the steely “coldness” of professionalism + experience to perform the operation — while, at the same time, having the compassion to recognize the pain that the patient on the operating table has already been through; and, the pain that the patient will have to go through during the initial phases of the healing process after the operation is completed.
I think he can be. he meets with, stares into the eyes of, those Gold Star families and those families who lost loved ones because of illegals, the wife and children of Corey–he feels their pain. i think that alone will steel his resolve plenty.
I hope so.
A few points.
We don’t have enough rants around here [no Gail – not talking about you 😉 ].
Men react differently than women, when put in those types of situations. It’s a major reason that women should not be in hot combat if it can be avoided.
I observe that almost everyone across the landscape seems to think that Gaetz and the DoJ are nevermore. Later when all seems calm and someone else seems poised on the diving board, Gaetz could be stealth recess appointed.
I’m always fond of my own ideas but I really
