Health Friday is a series regarding Big Pharma, vaccines, general health, and associated topics.

There are Important Notifications from our host, Wolf Moon; the Rules of our late, good Wheatie; and, certain caveats from Yours Truly, of which readers should be aware. They are linked here. Note: Yours Truly has checked today’s offering for any AI-generated content. To the best of her knowledge and belief, there is none. If readers wish to post any AI-generated content to today’s discussion thread, they must cite their source. Thank you.

Today’s offering is slightly different from others in this series. It is an honor and a privilege for Yours Truly to present today’s post on this day, 4 July 2025, the 249th birthday of the representative republic known as the United States of America.

Facsimile of the United States Declaration of Independence made by William Stone in 1823.

The above image of Declaration of Independence is courtesy of iStock and Google Images.

Our good TradeBait2 has posted many articles on the board regarding the signers of the Declaration of Independence. These amazing men understood what it meant to sign a document in which they stated, “And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.” They were not perfect individuals, but they understood how high the stakes were. They were ready to deal with whatever would happen to them. Many of them lost their own lives, the lives of family members, their land, their homes, and much more, because of the document that they signed. We, the citizens of the United States of America today, honor and remember them for their courage and for their sacrifices in laying the foundation for breaking the tyrannical stranglehold of British Monarchy in order to create a new and free country. It is the responsibility of American citizens to fight enemies, “both foreign and domestic.”

Regarding health, the United States of America is beginning to recover from the disaster of the lab-created bioweapons called COVID-19 virus itself and the COVID-19 “vaccines”: a disaster that was unleashed on the globe in the fall of 2019, and in the development of which both the United States Defense Department and the United States National Institutes of Health were involved. Millions of Americans became infected with the virus; thousands died from the complications and from “hospital protocols” (the use of Remdesivir, ventilators, Paxlovid, molnupiravir, and so on.) Thousands more have died from the dangerous, deadly effects of the COVID-19 “vaccines” that were injected into their bodies. Millions of Americans have COVID-19 “vaccine”-induced injuries, illnesses, or disabilities (https://openvaers.com/.) People are seeing their COVID-19 “vaccinated” loved ones, friends, and colleagues succumb to the dangerous, deadly effects of these injectables. Thankfully, more information and confirmation regarding the dangers and deadliness of these “vaccines” are coming into public view by the day. The American people are indebted to many courageous medical professionals who have labored, and continue to labor, to expose the truth about both the COVID-19 virus itself and the COVID-19 “vaccines” — Dr. Robert Malone, MD; Dr. Ryan Cole, MD; Dr. Peter A. McCullough, MD; Dr. Pierre Kory, MD; Dr. Stephanie Seneff, PhD; Dr. Jessica Rose, PhD; among others. The United States Department of Health and Human Services, under the current Secretary, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., is taking steps to curtail the imposition of these “vaccines.” The cheap and effective preventative and treatment for COVID-19, Ivermectin, is finally being made available to the public — now, it needs FDA approval, which it still does not have. Many persons involved in the lab-creation of the COVID-19 disaster must be held to account.

There is one COVID-19 “vaccine”-related news item that Yours Truly will present in today’s offering: the coordinated plot by https://www.bio.org/ to remove current HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.; and, to “redesign” the FDA into the vassal of Big Pharma that it was for many years previous to January 2025, the start of the second administration of President Donald Trump47. BIO.org partners closely with the United States Defense Department in the development of vaccines and other technologies. Please see the screenshots below from the company’s website.

The Partnering with the Department of Defense webpage also has three embedded videos, related to “rapid development of vaccines” and “how to work with the DoD.”

Regarding the coordinated effort by BIO.org to remove Secretary Kennedy, Jr., and related items, please see the screenshots below. The first one is from Yours Truly on The Q Tree. The rest of the screenshots are from the PDF of the BIO.org Vaccine Policy Steering Committee meeting that occurred on 3 April 2025. The link to the Substack article by Dr. Rose is: https://jessicar.substack.com/p/the-plot-to-remove-rfk-by-big-pharma.

The BIO.org meeting was held on 3 April 2025. Yours Truly corrects a date mistake in The Q Tree comment screenshot, above.

It appears that BIO.org is making it clear that they want “the good old HHS and good old FDA back”, and will do all they can to have this happen. It also appears that BIO.org believes that Dr. Martin Makary (current Commissioner of the FDA) is “manageable.” This may be a result of Dr. Makary’s recommendation for pregnant women to get COVID-19 “vaccinated.”

This is the same Dr. Martin Makary and his FDA that granted “Fast Track” approval in April 2025 for the H5N1 Avian Influenza “vaccine”, ARCT-2304, a self-amplifying RNA (saRNA) “vaccine.” Please see: https://www.contagionlive.com/view/fda-grants-fast-track-status-to-arct-2304-for-h5n1-influenza-protection, 10 April 2025. Surely Dr. Makary understands that saRNA, once injected into the body, turns that “vaccinated” body into a “literal interior Xerox machine” for manufacturing the modRNA of an injected saRNA “vaccine”, and that this “literal interior Xerox machine” effect can be permanent?

It appears that BIO.org is planning to foment distrust and disagreement between President Trump47 and Secretary Kennedy, Jr.

It also appears that BIO.org is planning to “work with” the United States Senate in coordinating the removal of Secretary Kennedy, Jr.

It is Yours Truly’ opinion that every United States Senator needs to see the BIO.org meeting document from April 2025; either the document itself; or, the link to the Dr. Jessica Rose article, above.

It is up to We, the People of the United States, to stop the efforts of BIO.org, of Big Pharma, of the World Health Organization, of the United Nations, of the American Medical Association, and other entities and persons, in hobbling, let alone taking away, health freedom in America.

Here’s the grungy rascal here saying a bit of what he said I guess. First time I’ve seen his lips move.

And here’s the other fella and were going to get a load of this on the 7th. But just remember if you will how he was the very first to congratulate Sleepy Joe on his fabulous win steal while knowing your President was already saying the election was stolen.

Meanwhile some have broke from the company to form different opinions…

Now this first one was posted last night and is suggested if you haven’t watched it.

While the second is more on point concerning what I imagine the dirty grungy rascal wants to say.

Gail Combs

This is from the Israeli Daily News paper, Haaretz on Oct 9, 2023, 2 days after the Hamas attack.

Please NOTE I bring this as INFORMATION. I have zero idea of what is true or not. However from these articles, it seems not all the Israelis support Netanyahu and what he is doing.

Another Concept Implodes: Israel Can’t Be Managed by a Criminal Defendant

..His [Netanyahu’s] life’s work was to turn the ship of state from the course steered by his predecessors, from Yitzhak Rabin to Ehud Olmert, and make the two-state solution impossible. En route to this goal, he found a partner in Hamas.

“Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,” he told a meeting of his Likud party’s Knesset members in March 2019. “This is part of our strategy – to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank.”

And here is a 2023 article by out Transhumanist ‘friend’ Yuval Noah Harari

Can Judaism Survive a Messianic Dictatorship in Israel?

What will happen to Judaism if Israeli democracy is destroyed by supremacist zealots

Two weeks ago I went to Beit Shemesh, a predominantly religious city, to take part in a pro-democracy rally. Hundreds of people participated…. Opposite us, there was a counter-rally of government supporters. There were only a handful of people, but they were armed with huge loudspeakers that amplified live speeches intermingled with recorded songs. “That’s how it is every week,” explained the old hands. “The other side cannot bring many people, so they fill their ranks with loudspeakers.”

[He then talks of a specific song celebrating the destruction of a town]

The song was written about events in the West Bank town of Hawara this past February. After a Palestinian shot and killed two Israelis who were driving through Hawara, gangs of right-wing activists entered the town, set fire to houses, cars and other property, and wounded dozens of Palestinians, without the Israeli security forces doing much to protect the locals. Many described it as a pogrom, but the leader of the Religious Zionism party, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, supported the attack and publicly called for Hawara to be “wiped out.” In a similar spirit, the pro-government loudspeakers in Beit Shemesh sounded out the following gleeful song:

[QUOTE]

Who is going up in flames now? – Hawara! Houses and cars! – Hawara!

They are evacuating old ladies, women and young girls, it is burning all night! – Hawara!

Burn their trucks! – Hawara!

Burn the roads and cars! – Hawara!

[UNQUOTE]

Imagine a world in which Jews can no longer excuse incidents like Hawara as the handiwork of an extremist minority, because the gangs that burned Hawara turned out to be the pillar of fire guiding the entire Jewish nation? Imagine a world where Judaism discards the spiritual and moral legacy it has accumulated over generations, burns down “love your neighbor as yourself” and sets fire to “you shall not covet your neighbor’s house.” Imagine a world in which “Judaism” becomes a synonym for religious fanaticism, racism and brutal oppression. Could Judaism survive such a spiritual destruction?…

I dislike and distrust Harari, but I do think he and the other author have a point, Israeli may not be able to withstand the forces within the country tearing it apart.

Footage of Israeli police brutally beating Orthodox Jews who refuse to serve in the IDF

Footage has been published online showing the brutal suppression by Israeli police of protests by Orthodox Jews who are protesting against the inclusion of members of religious communities in the list of categories of citizens subject to mandatory conscription into the army.

As you can see, the Israeli police beat their religious citizens with batons, throw them to the ground, and then kick them. The actions of the Israeli police towards their citizens are strikingly reminiscent of the forced mobilization in Ukraine, which is also the closest “ally” of the United States in its region.

However, just a few years ago it was impossible to imagine such behavior by the Israeli police towards the Orthodox, due to the largely theocratic structure of the Jewish community. In addition, until recently there was a law in Israel exempting members of the Orthodox communities from mandatory military service for citizens of this country.

Explanation by a commenter:

Since the formation of the state under Ben Gurion, there were only 400 students in yeshivas (religious schools), the founder of the state himself wanted their party in a coalition with his own, so he exempted them from the army by law. And now there are 500 of them, most of them do not work, but study for life.

I’m having flashbacks to programming.

Half of the 16-item data structures you deal with are numbered 0-15, and the other half are numbered 1-16.

kalbokalbs

Huh?   :insane: 

Nah forget it. Too early. Need coffee.

cthulhu

Is your first birthday when you turn one-year-old, or when you are born?

In programming, some of the things you do start with 0 and some start with 1. This is similar to when BC turns into AD in years.

kalbokalbs

  :wpds_smile: 

Seems we had a like discussion back when 2000 was arriving.

Not the programming part. When to start counting for, years.

Maybe even in 1976.. Which I remember, 1976. Not if the counting aspect was discussed. All I had back then was Newsweek, Time…   :wpds_unamused: 

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Basically there was no year 0 AD. 1 BC was followed by 1 AD, though at the time no one applied those numbers and names.

So the first 100 years, the first century, were 1-100 inclusive, so the last day of the first century was 31 December 100.

Carry that forward to today and the first day of the 21st century was January 1, 2001.

Leap years were instituted by Julius Caesar (who tidied up a lot of things with the calendar, which is why that calendar was named the Julian calendar); he ordered an extra day inserted into every fourth year in 45 or 44 BCE; but then he was killed. He was misunderstood and for a while it was every third year, but they realized their mistake fairly soon, skipped a leap year or two to get back into sync, and we followed that rule until much more recently. By lucky coincidence once we started numbering our years the way we do now (starting sometime in the 500s IIRC), leap years turned out to be those divisible by 4.

Pope Gregory in the 1500s realized we were taking a bit too many leap years (3 too many in 400 years) and thus the calendar had slipped out of alignment with the seasons. He wrote the current rule (every year divisible by 4 except for those divisible by 100, however those divisible by 400 remained leap years notwithstanding). And he dropped nine days to get back in sync with the seasons. This is the calendar we are now using. Britain didn’t switch from Julian to Gregorian until 1752 (i.e., during the lifetime of many of the Founding Fathers) and 11 days were simply dropped from September of that year; Wednesday September 2 was followed by Thursday September 14.

If you retroactively extend the Gregorian calendar backwards, it’s in sync with the Julian calendar in the 4th century.

Depends on whether you’re a horse or not.

Birthday’s good grief don’t start 😮 I think I need two hands to count all of DW’s birthdays. Where do I begin?

Day of Conception both Calendar and Lunar
Day of Birth, both Calendar and Lunar
Day of Record, both Calendar and Lunar.

And the Official One we chose for all her documents which is likely Day of Record Calendar. Anyway that’s the only one I’ve ever bothered to remember by the actual date. 🙄

para59r

Drats! she may of mentioned something about 1year also but I likely tuned it out as it would require the 6 or 7 above to be multiplied by 2.

AOC is an asset and scared. Her crimes will be exposed and stopped, IMHO.

Wolf Moon

Yup.

I seriously doubt AOC can conceive of what 1 million people look like never the less 21 million, so no shock she’s shocked that ICE is going to grow by a few leaps and bounds.

Gail Combs

I think by now it is more like 40 to 50 million. The US government certainly is not about to tell us!

2015 — 30 Million Illegal Immigrants in US, Says Mexico’s Former Ambassador

Mexico’s former ambassador to the U.S. said that 30 million “undocumented immigrants” are living in the United States… The former ambassador stated,” If you were to deport the 30 million undocumented immigrants in the United States that’s going to cost you about 130 billion dollars.”

2023 — Mexican President Celebrates ’40 Million’ Mexicans in the U.S.

Biden recently announced a plan to allow 360,000 people from four countries to move to the United States each year. That huge population transfer from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Venezuela is in addition to the global inflow of illegal migrants, and Congress’s normal inflow of roughly one million legal immigrants….

TradeBait2

The Dem fallback is that Repubs are cutting healhcare for Americans on Medicaid for the benefit of billionaires. In time people will be able to parse out the truth, but our side needs to hammer the truth home, relentlessly, now.

…chart a new path…

Dumrats Only know TDS – Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Zero solutions…millions will go hungry, get sick die…  :insane: 

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yep that was the recurrent theme during the debate.

AOC was a little more specific, she claimed the cuts would affect legal Americans, not illegals (she was the only one, in other words, who tried to counter our talking point about the cuts only happening to illegals).

I have no idea what these tax cuts for billionaires might have been in reference to. Fictitious? Probably.

Jeffries was actually a better speaker than I thought he would be; at least his English was good albeit with a distinct (but not unpleasant) accent. He came across better audio only than he did on video…the arm waving was a distraction.

Imagine if it had been Maxine Waters giving that talk.

Anyhow they’re all in the shitter and they know it.

I don’t know, but I think this bill codifies tax cuts that Trump put into place during his first term that were set to expire in 2025. Those were probably categorized as “tax cuts for billionaires.”

Imagine if it had been Maxine Waters giving that talk.

I dont know if this is true or if there is more nuance to it, but it is information about Thomas Massie.

Trump was framed.
We all know it.

TheseTruths

Maybe, maybe not, on Ratcliffe. I’m keeping the powder dry until we know more. A letter has been sent to Pres. Trump, and he will see what is going on. From the article:

A source familiar with the CIA’s process in putting together its internal review memo pushed back on Crawford’s criticism on Thursday, telling Just the News that the value of the lessons learned document that was released on Wednesday was that it is one thing for a Republican-appointed CIA director or a Republican intelligence committee chairman to say a process was corrupted, but it’s another — and more powerful — thing if career intelligence officials are forced to admit it, as happened with the CIA’s lessons learned memo.

The source, who wished to remain anonymous to discuss the sensitive nature of the internal CIA processes, told Just the News that, if Ratcliffe himself had written the lessons learned memo then it would’ve gone further than it did. The source said that the power of Wednesday’s CIA review was that Ratcliffe forced career CIA officials to admit that their process was corrupted in that moment in 2016.

This source also said that the future release of a yet-classified HPSCI document will further expose the corruption related to the intelligence community’s handling of allegations of Russian meddling in 2016.

I don’t trust the C_A, I don’t trust most of Congress, and I don’t trust Flynn’s judgment on everything. We’ll see if Ratcliffe is trustworthy. Up to this point he has seemed to be, so I’m not ready to throw him under the bus without more information.

Gudthots

Fair enough.

Gail Combs

There is also getting the general population used to an idea slowly so it is FULLY accepted.

Overton window – Wiki

The Overton window is the range of subjects and arguments politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time. It is also known as the window of discourse. The key to the concept is that the window changes over time…

We are already aware that the Intel agencies have been weaponized against us but the general population is not.

Given General Flynn’s knowledge of 5th Gen Warfare, I wonder what he is up to.

TheseTruths

There is also getting the general population used to an idea slowly so it is FULLY accepted.

Yes. Sometimes it’s a long game. Trump is a master at it. There are always those who don’t trust, don’t learn, and who, when scorched earth doesn’t happen, question those in charge while not knowing everything they know and not knowing the strategy.

Gail Combs

When you have been in possession of the information for years, it gets frustrating waiting for the rest of the population to catch up.

The Federal Reserve being a scam was not a particularly hard concept to get across because no one but the elite had a vested interest.

With Russiagate, 1/2 the population were convinced Trump was an evil traitor that was worse than Hitler thanks to the Fake News. People are not going to be willing to let go of that mindset easily esp when it has caused rifts between friends and families.

What is interesting is the view of illegals has swung drastically within the last decade.

recent Rasmussen Reports national survey shows that 79% of likely U.S. voters believe the U.S. should deport illegal immigrants who commit crimes, with 56% saying it’s very important.

https://crimeresearch.org/2025/04/rasmussen-asks-how-important-is-it-that-illegal-immigrants-who-commit-crimes-in-america-should-be-deported-56-very-important-23-somewhat-important-all-groups-supportive-though-liberals-democrats/

6 months ago

64 percent of Americans approve of President-elect Donald Trump’s plan to begin mass deportations immediately, while 33 percent disapprove…

https://www.naturalnews.com/2024-11-20-poll-majority-support-mass-deportation-illegal-immigrants.html

I can not remember the numbers but I think it was ~46% several years ago.

Aubergine

I don’t trust Flynn much. He seems to go off half-cocked sometimes.

Wolf Moon

Yup. Flynn’s also willing (as a spy) to misrepresent things to the public. Trying to pass off something from the C.U.T. cult as “Catholic” isn’t straight shooting, no matter the reason.

Firing Ratcliffe strikes me as wrong-headed, given the massive changes he’s been able to accomplish at CIA and working with Rubio in State.

I found this:

The Moment That Changed Everything: How Marla Maples Helped Bridge RFK Jr. and Trump & Why It Matters Now
[QUOTE]
A vision held for decades just became reality—Marla Maples, the quiet catalyst behind Trump and RFK Jr.’s alliance, speaks on the moment that stunned the world and what’s coming next.

Link to Original Interview on The MAHA Podcast

,,,,She was there, quietly nudging behind the scenes, bringing RFK Jr. into Trump Tower to discuss a Vaccine Safety Commission in 2016. She was there, holding space for something that seemed impossible. And then, in a moment that sent chills through millions, Donald Trump introduced Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on stage to a crowd that erupted in thunderous applause.

“We all had tears in our eyes. We were wondering—how would this crowd react to Bobby? And then Trump said his name: Robert Kennedy Jr. The place went crazy. Minutes of cheering, stomping, chanting. And Trump, instead of feeling threatened, just stood there, like a proud father watching his son score a goal. That’s when I realized—Marla was right.” —Del Bigtree

This wasn’t just a political moment. It was a cultural shift. It was a bridge built between people who had long been divided, an alignment of forces that could redefine the future of America….

IMO the only reason this was possible was because the horse knew how to get to Monticello.  😂 

The text of the tweet:

—————————
God’s hand was all over the inception of America.

Just one example: On June 3rd, 1781, a young man named Jack Jouett spotted the Brits in Louisa County, VA, making their way inward to capture Thomas Jefferson.

The 26-year-old man got on horseback and took off through the wilderness to warn Jefferson. He rode 40 miles in pitch black and arrived at Monticello early in the morning with bruises all over his body from getting struck by everything nature threw at him.

He quickly informed Jefferson of the threat, and Jefferson immediately evacuated his family and servants, and evacuated himself just 10 or so minutes before the British forces arrived… luckily, they didn’t loot or destroy Monticello.

That’s Divine Providence.

Gail Combs

Riding in pitch black is no fun! Especially when you find out your horse’s night vision is not all that great!

How well can horses see in the dark?

The average horse’s night vision is nowhere near as good as many people believe. Neuroscientist Janet Jones, PhD, sets the record straight…

One of the strongest myths is that horses see well in the dark. After their eyes are gradually adjusted to the dark, horses can make out dim edges of objects. It’s similar to what we might see in partial moonlight. Color and texture are not visible, and detail is at a bare minimum. Equine depth perception is also impaired at night….

Human eyes adjust from brightness to dark in about 25 minutes. Your horse’s eyes require 45 minutes—almost twice as long! 

Yandex AI says:

The night vision of a horse is superior to that of a person but not as advanced as that of a dog or cat.

Dogs and cats, or their predecessors who hunt at night, are predators. To complete their mission, they must have exceptional night vision.

I would agree and add that horses are PLAINS animals (think long mane and tail hair) so they are not adapted to the dark under trees.

Keep in mind that I didn’t say anything about eyesight, horses or otherwise.

I said the horse knew the way, meaning he’d been there many times before and so knew the general terrain.

I thought horses only knew the way to Grandmother’s House.

BARN! They all know the way back to the barn and their feed pail. It even has a name. Barn sour.

cthulhu

I thought “barn sour” was something you said to French people you met in the late afternoon…..

Gail Combs

FWIW, my mare knew the way back to the barn, and it was still a nasty ride until we got out of the woods and along the road. I actually think my night sight was better than hers and she was only about 5 years old.

Gudthots

Nasty because you were getting hit by tree limbs?

Gail Combs

Yes, I just about lost my glasses. I was with others and it was a trail we often rode but scary after dark.

Wolf Moon

God’s hand was all over the inception of America.

Just one example: On June 3rd, 1781, a young man named Jack Jouett spotted the Brits in Louisa County, VA, making their way inward to capture Thomas Jefferson.

The 26-year-old man got on horseback and took off through the wilderness to warn Jefferson. He rode 40 miles in pitch black and arrived at Monticello early in the morning with bruises all over his body from getting struck by everything nature threw at him.

He quickly informed Jefferson of the threat, and Jefferson immediately evacuated his family and servants, and evacuated himself just 10 or so minutes before the British forces arrived… luckily, they didn’t loot or destroy Monticello.

That’s Divine Providence.

An interesting detail to all this illegal immigration that I had not realized until this morning. The Dems were going to be the majority party simply because the census gave more districts in blue states. The illegals did not have to actually vote. The mere fact that they would tend to settle in blue states and cities gave those areas more representation in the federal government. Their sanctuary status and the welfare safety net gave them state and local control. It was a very clever scheme. It was an end-around both the Constitution and the Electoral College provisions for Presidential elections. Add to that, the birthright citizenship and amnesty angles and you have a very soft coup. An added benefit was that it didn’t cost them a dime, they just used your taxes and the printing press. I actually would have admired it if it wasn’t totally anti-American.

Excellent analysis.

Also add That SOB, Ted Kennedy’s changes to our immigration laws.

WHOA!!! I was not aware of this JFK info.

How the Kennedy Family Caused Today’s Immigration CrisisAnd brought Obama’s father to America.
February 12, 2024 by Daniel Greenfield

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center. Horowitz was a red diaper baby who woke up after the accountant he recommended was murdered by his buddies, the Black Panthers. (Via Hubby from what her remembered of his book)

When LBJ signed the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act into law, JFK had been dead for two years…

At the signing, LBJ paid tribute to “the vision of the late beloved President John Fitzgerald Kennedy”. Little did the 36th president know that the 44th president, born to a radical Kenyan student, was already growing up in this country due to JFK’s personal intervention during his 1960 presidential campaign.

….At the signing ceremony, LBJ was flanked by the newly minted Senator Ted Kennedy and a grinning RFK to cement the bill which ended national quotas for immigrants as the Kennedy legacy. The bill would be described as Senator Ted Kennedy’s “first legislative victory” which “helped change the face of the country” and “fashioned the modern day immigration system.”

“The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs,” Senator Ted Kennedy had promised in the Senate. All of these promises proved to be false.

The 1965 bill was a sequel to a battle that Rep. John F. Kennedy had narrowly lost to Senator Richard Nixon over the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952. President Truman had vetoed the 1952 bill because it imposed national restrictions on immigration, favoring Western European immigrants and drastically limiting immigration from the rest of the world.

Kennedy had upheld Truman’s veto in the House but Nixon cast a tie-breaking vote and the 1952 bill became law.

While Nixon won the battle, Kennedy won the war. In 1958, Kennedy published “A Nation of Immigrants” which argued that restricting immigration by national origin “violated the spirit expressed in the Declaration of Independence that ‘all men are created equal’”.He was preparing to relaunch it in 1963 for his big immigration push before his assassination.

During the 1960 presidential campaign, the Kennedy team focused its outreach on immigrant groups restricted by the bill….

Gail Combs

I was curious about any other info substantiating “JFK’s personal intervention” for Obama’s dad.

From the JFK Library

John F. Kennedy and African Independence

Kennedy’s interest in ending colonialism and supporting the struggle for self-determination, which first attracted national attention in the 1950s as a result of his speeches attacking French colonialism in Vietnam and Algeria, extended as well to the struggles for independence in sub-Saharan Africa. In 1958, the State Department first established a Bureau of African Affairs and the following year, Kennedy became chairman of the African Affairs Subcommittee of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

During the 1960 campaign Kennedy repeatedly faulted the Eisenhower administration for neglecting “the needs and aspirations of the African people” and stressed that the U.S. should be on the side of anti-colonialism and self-determination. …

OK that makes sense.

The Kennedy Airlift – Wiki

The Kennedy Airlift was started in 1959 by a 28-year-old Kenyan, Tom Mboya, who sought support for promising Kenyan students to get college and university educations in the United States and Canada….It brought hundreds of students from East Africa from 1959 to 1963 and was supported by many North American educational institutions, foundations, and individuals…

 It got its popular nickname in September 1960 when Senator John F. Kennedy in a close presidential campaign arranged a $100,000 donation from the Joseph P. Kennedy Jr Foundation to cover airfare for the autumn 1960 group of East African students just as the program was running out of funds.

Wiki then says:

Contrary to some media reports, Barack Obama Sr., the first husband of Stanley Ann Dunham and father of Barack Obama II, was not a direct beneficiary of the airlifts.[8] Instead, inspired by the airlift program, he applied to various American universities and received private funding to attend the University of Hawaii. He also received funding from the African American Students Foundation (AASF) with the help of Mboya and so was part of the so-called “airlift generation”.

Citing:

  1.  Shachtman, Tom (2009). Airlift to America: How Barack Obama Sr., John F. Kennedy, Tom Mboya, and 800 East African Students Changed Their World and Ours. St. Martin’s. ISBN 978-0-312-57075-0. Retrieved 28 February 2021.

Tom Shachtman writes for the Daily Beast.

Then there is this:

A Company Family: The Untold History of Obama and the CIA — Covert Action Mag
The author Jeremy Kuzmarov also leans left.

…In the early 1960s, Stanley Dunham was part of a group photo taken with Barack Obama, Sr., on his departure from the University of Hawaii.

Obama Sr. had been part of a State Department/CIA exchange financed in part by the Joseph P. Kennedy Foundation that brought future African leaders to the U.S. who were being groomed to serve U.S. interests in the Cold War….

🚨EXCLUSIVE: @FBIDirectorKash & @FBIDDBongino: Expose the FBI and Gascón’s Konnech–CCP Election Software Cover-Up

Strong evidence shows that corrupt FBI officials and former LADA George Gascón deliberately concealed CCP infiltration of U.S. election systems—because exposing it would have politically benefited @realDonaldTrump.

@Kash_Patel & @dbongino now have a rare opportunity: expose how deeply politicized the FBI became, remove CCP-controlled software from America’s elections, and finish an investigation that was already 90% complete before it was sabotaged.

At the center of the scandal is Konnech, a Michigan-based election software company secretly developed and financed by two Chinese firms—Jinhua Yulian Network and Jinhua Hongzheng Technology—under contract with China’s National People’s Congress and in partnership with state-owned giants like Huawei, China Telecom, China Unicom, China Mobile, and Lenovo.

Konnech’s flagship product, PollChief, is used to manage poll worker scheduling, equipment deployment, and logistics in major U.S. cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Detroit, Washington D.C., Fairfax County, and St. Louis.

In early 2021, @TrueTheVote‘s Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips discovered that Konnech was storing the personally identifiable information (PII) of U.S. election workers, judges, and voters on servers in China. Using open-source tools like Binary Edge, they traced PollChief to Chinese IP addresses—where they found unsecured databases containing names, Social Security numbers, addresses, bank information, voter roll data, polling location schematics, provisional ballot serial numbers, and even passwords for voting machines.

They alerted FBI field offices in Detroit and San Antonio, where agents took the threat seriously and launched a 15-month counterintelligence investigation. But in April 2022—just before the release of Dinesh D’Souza’s 2000 Mules, a film on 2020 election fraud featuring True the Vote—FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. intervened and flipped the investigation on its head.

Field agents warned Engelbrecht and Phillips that they, not Konnech, were now considered the threat. Two senior female FBI officials in Washington D.C. were reportedly preparing criminal charges against them rather than Konnech’s CEO Eugene Yu. Engelbrecht was warned she and Phillips might be prosecuted for accessing Konnech’s data on Chinese servers.

The FBI even tipped off Konnech about the investigation—compromising the case—and began circulating internal accusations that Phillips had committed cybercrimes, referring those allegations to the CIA and NSA. Phillips said their goal was to “Roger Stone” him—publicly smear and criminalize him as they had done to Trump allies.

In fear for their safety, a field agent advised Engelbrecht and Phillips to take the “nuclear option”—go public. On August 13, 2022, they did just that at The Pit, a closed-door briefing in Arizona with 200 cybersecurity experts, journalists, and election integrity investigators.

Two weeks later, Konnech sued them. In a stunning series of courtroom actions, Engelbrecht and Phillips were jailed and held in solitary confinement—until the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ordered their immediate release. The FBI stood by and let it happen. After their release, they published thousands of documents exposing Konnech’s ties to China. Within days, Konnech dropped the lawsuit.

Meanwhile, independent researchers quickly pieced together Eugene Yu’s background. Born in China, Jianwei Yu (于建伟) graduated from Zhejiang University in 1982 and worked for the CCP from 1983 to 1985 as a project manager in the Guangzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone. He moved to the U.S. in 1986 to pursue an MBA at Wake Forest University.

In 2002, Yu founded Konnech. By November 2005, he had launched a Chinese subsidiary—Jinhua Yulian Network—funded and overseen by the CCP. That same year, he was profiled as an “overseas scholar” in a Chinese-language publication by the China Association for Science and Technology (CAST) and the American Zhu Kezhen Education Foundation (AZKEF).

CAST is a formal CCP arm linking Chinese leadership with overseas scientists and technologists. AZKEF, where Yu served on the finance committee, flew U.S. researchers—including Harvard’s Charles Lieber—to Chinese universities. Lieber was later arrested for failing to disclose his ties to China’s Thousand Talents Plan, one of the CCP’s many programs that recruit foreign experts to encourage the illicit transfer of intellectual property back to China.

Konnech’s Chinese ties ran deep. It partnered with Michigan State University’s Confucius Institute, developed software in CCP-run tech parks, and directly served China’s National People’s Congress (NPC) and the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC).

On January 25, 2006, Yu’s Chinese company was accepted into the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Jinhua Science and Technology Park—a CCP-controlled tech incubator. From that point on, Jinhua Yulian Network and Konnech, were financed, developed, and controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.

Just a month later, on February 25, 2006, Yu registered the domain yu-lian .cn for Jinhua Yulian Network using his Konnech email address (eyu@konnech .com). Archived versions of the company’s Chinese-language website show Yu praising “Comrade Jiang Zemin” and the Chinese Communist Party, while promoting Konnech’s software products used by the National People’s Congress, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, Election Management Solutions Detroit, and U.S. Overseas Voters.

In December 2006, Konnech partnered with the Confucius Institute to build a Chinese communication platform called ChineseBrief .com. Yu registered CNBrief LLC, launched http://www.cnbrief .com, and displayed a banner in Chinese that translated to: “Chinese Brief – Overseas Chinese Network.”

Confucius Institutes are CCP-funded cultural centers embedded in Western universities that U.S. intelligence agencies and lawmakers have long warned operate under the direction of the CCP.

On July 18, 2007, an archived Chinese government website showed Yu offering a 5 million yuan (~$700,000 USD) software development contract on behalf of Jinhua Yulian Network, again using his Konnech email address and website

Is this the correct article?

I’m no expert by any stretch, but my understanding is that the ASIC mining rigs (computers) used for Bitcoin are very specialized for their singular purpose.

Maybe they can be repurposed for A.I., I just don’t know enough about it.

On June 30, 2025, 170 EPA employees signed a letter documenting their intent to resist the current Administration….

EPA employees join in solidarity with employees across the federal government in opposing this administration’s policies, including those that undermine the EPA mission of protecting human health and the environment. Since the Agency’s founding in 1970, EPA has accomplished this mission by leveraging science, funding, and expert staff in service to the American people. Today, we stand together in dissent against the current administration’s focus on harmful deregulation, mischaracterization of previous EPA actions, and disregard for scientific expertise.

They have now (four days later) all been placed on leave and are expected to be terminated.

“….EPA employees join in solidarity with employees across the federal government…”

Aside from the fact that this is an actual insurrection by definition, (18 U.S. Code § 2383) there is the tell tale word ‘Solidarity.’ Solidarity was the Polish trade union founded in August 1980, that was the critical catalyst in overthrowing the People’s Republic of Poland. Again pointing to an organized insurrection.

Mayor Bass of Los Angeles called on ICE to leave her city and “go home”. She got a response.

“ICE isn’t going anywhere and will continue to do what Mayor Bass has utterly failed to do – protect the citizens of Los Angeles. If she wants distance from federal law enforcement, I’m sure there is an upcoming diplomatic trip to Ghana,” Emily Covington, assistant director, ICE Office of Public Affairs, said in a statement to Fox News.

It’s Heating Up in LA as the ACLU Takes ICE to Court

….The left-leaning nonprofit accuses the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) of carrying out unconstitutional raids and targeting “migrants with brown skin.” The plaintiffs allege that DHS and ICE have carried out unconstitutional arrests in order to meet arrest quotas allegedly set out on June 6 by the Trump administration. The suit specifically claims that officials have based arrests and detentions on race and ethnicity with no articulable reasonable suspicion.

“The raids in this district follow a common, systematic pattern. Individuals with brown skin are approached or pulled aside by unidentified federal agents, suddenly and with a show of force, and made to answer questions about who they are and where they are from,” said the lawsuit.

The lawsuit alleges that these immigration raids violate the Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights laid out in the Bill of Rights. The Fourth Amendment protects American citizens from unreasonable search and seizure by the government, while the Fifth Amendment guarantees citizens’ right to due process within the judicial system. The class action does not address the discrepancy between the status of an American citizen and an illegal alien in the United States….

It is time to make LAWFARE illegal! It is obvious that lawfare is now the Commies favorite attack method.

patfrederick

okay let’s dispense with the word “migrant” shall we.
if they’re here legally they should have no problem complying. if they’re here illegally, they should leave.
sometimes police officers conduct ROUTINE traffic stops. it happens. are they targeting people or doing it for PUBLIC SAFETY?
If they see someone they suspect is drunk, they can ask them for Id and make them pass a sobriety test. if you’re sober, you go on your way. if you’re drunk. you get detained and possibly arrested.
they’re doing their jobs.

Gail Combs

“…okay let’s dispense with the word “migrant” shall we….”

I certainly agree. I call them ILLEGALS because that is what they are.

The ACLU is who is using the word “migrant.”

They technically are migrants but so is absolutely everyone else who migrates.

That word is used to try to conflate legal and illegal migrants. As a result even naturalized citizens are worried they’re going to get scooped up. For that matter, I even talked with one NBC Hispanic who was worried she might get scooped up.

patfrederick

technically i see them as ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
migrant implies they will move back home at some point. these people do not want that. they IMMIGRATE here illegally in hopes to stay.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Nah, “migrant” is much too general for that.

I think we can agree though that the key “missing” word is “illegal.”

patfrederick

they have watered down the word migrant to suit their purpose and make it seem all encompassing. it is not. migrant farm workers move from place to place to work and then go back home. immigrants want to resettle somewhere. BIG DIFFERENCE.
the left deliberately does NOT call them immigrants because we have a LEGAL PROCESS for that they are not following. migrant implies they will leave to go to another place. makes them sound benign instead of criminals.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

OK referring to a dictionary from 1951 as updated to 1957 (pardon my typos):

migrant: a person, bird or other animal that migrates

migrate: 1) [i.e., primary meaning] to move from one place to another, esp. to leave one’s country and settle in another. [please note this fits the present context perfectly] 2) to move from one region to another with the change in seasons, as many birds and some fishes.

I’m not using the word wrongly, no matter how much of a tantrum you want to throw about the Left.

It is the ACLU who are not known for telling the actual truth. From what I can tell, ICE is going after the people who are breaking OTHER laws.

During Trump’s First term, ICE raided the flea market I did pony rides at. I was also taking photos.

They went after the vendors who were NOT charging sales tax and vendors selling stolen goods or counterfeit goods. I think the state cops were helping. I had to show my state tax ID and photographer’s lic. since I was advertising the photography.

They nabbed a lot of illegals while they were at it.

EACH DAY WE TAKE UP THE OFFENSIVE WEAPON OF THE WORD OF GOD – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – ONE VERSE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CONTEXT OF THE CHAPTER MESSAGE

Verse of the Day for Friday, July 4, 2025

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” 

John 8:32 (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR JOHN 8

“The Pharisees and the adulteress. (1-11) Christ’s discourse with the Pharisees.” (12-59)

(30-36) “Such power attended our Lord’s words, that many were convinced, and professed to believe in him. He encouraged them to attend his teaching, rely on his promises, and obey his commands, notwithstanding all temptations to evil. Thus doing, they would be his disciples truly; and by the teaching of his word and Spirit, they would learn where their hope and strength lay. Christ spoke of spiritual liberty; but carnal hearts feel no other grievances than those that molest the body, and distress their worldly affairs. Talk to them of their liberty and property, tell them of waste committed upon their lands, or damage done to their houses, and they understand you very well; but speak of the bondage of sin, captivity to Satan, and liberty by Christ; tell of wrong done to their precious souls, and the hazard of their eternal welfare, then you bring strange things to their ears. Jesus plainly reminded them, that the man who practised any sin, was, in fact, a slave to that sin, which was the case with most of them. Christ in the gospel offers us freedom, he has power to do this, and those whom Christ makes free are really so. But often we see persons disputing about liberty of every kind, while they are slaves to some sinful lust.”

Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL

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.

FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT

Have you noticed evil increased on earth
The arrogance and flagrancy sheer girth
We are told to pray daily without end
We must not quit give up or even bend

What makes evil so blatant in plain sight
What can we do to curtail this and fight
We must don our Armor of God so fine 
We must be Prayer Warriors divine

We must empower others do the same
In His Precious and Most Holy Name
For whatever we ask of the Father
In Jesus’ name compares to no other

We must stand and be bold in all our ways
We must hold onto Him all of our days
We must not accept what’s meant to deter 
Redacted refracted revised to infer

We will find truth in His Word as put forth
We will discover knowledge for its worth
We will discern understanding in time
We will reap wisdom its purpose sublime

Saturated with lies and dire deceit 
We exhaust ourselves in fighting replete
Instead of uniting under His banner
We’re distracted in discordant manner

To God be the Glory forever amen
To Him be our allegiance now and when
We fight the good fight and are welcomed in
To our heavenly home purified within

July 4th has special meaning for me.

Having my brother Gary murdered, along with my best friend Doug and 656 friends and colleagues at Cantor Fitzgerald on September 11th, 2001, simply because they were American, cannot make the point more clear.

America is the defender of peace and the protector of freedom.

Many who are fortunate and blessed to live in America want to destroy freedom and seek our undoing.

They are able to attack us with words, signs, and protests only because they live in a country that allows them the freedom to speak.

All those who live in America and yell “death to America” should leave this country and live where they think it’s better.

This, of course, will never happen because there is no place better to live than the U.S.

We live in the only country that protects the world, fights for peace and freedom, loves life and liberty, and allows us, the citizens of America, to collectively choose our leader.

And I cannot be prouder that we, as a nation, have chosen Donald J. Trump as our President.

Today, let us give thanks for the freedom we enjoy every day and remember all those who gave their lives because they were Americans.

patfrederick

you’re supposed to go to the NEAREST country if you’re escaping a country and seeking asylum–not fly/boat/walk to America because we have more perks for illegals. Now they have to pay $100 to file an asylum claim–down from the $1,000 fee the parliamentarian struck down and out of the bill. WHY? who is SHE to determine the fee????? she’s not elected. she should get no say in this.
FTA
Yes, the original idea, overruled by the Senate parliamentarian, was to make the amount closer to what the court costs are, at $1,000. And sure, it would be a good idea to penalize those throwing junk cases to clog up the courts and prevent them from dealing with real asylum cases.
But $100 is still a good start in disincentivizing junk asylum cases. As most would-be asylees aren’t fleeing persecution, the cost of being unable to fool the judge has just gotten higher.

Good morning, C&C, it’s Friday! Happy Independence Day! I’d originally planned a short, touching, patriotic holiday post, but there is just too much danged important news. Still, the Childers family will join a neighborhood 4th of July Parade at 9am, so today’s abbreviated roundup will focus on just the MOST essential items: Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill is passed and now we can find out what was in it—a giant hammer of executive power and a laundry list of things conservatives have been promised since before the horse and buggy; Trump tariffs are set to resume as the dashboard flickers back into life; and, as we all knew was going to happen, Ukraine is finally circling the drain.

Russia discriminates rather well and are very disciplined when it comes to sorting the wheat from the chaff, thus it’s taking them some time to get it right. Unlike our Israeli friends who have been understandably in a rush but now can’t seem to stop.

And remember that Orthodox Catholic said that 50% of those in Gaza are children.

Also the 3rd oldest church in the world was not struck once but twice. The second time the bomb did not go off. If it did the church would be no more. Call it Divine Intervention if you will.

Update 10/20/2023: The IDF targeted the Church of Saint Porphyrius on 10/19. The Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem expressed its “strongest condemnation” of the strike. “Targeting churches and their institutions, along with the shelters they provide to protect innocent citizens, especially children and women who have lost their homes due to Israeli airstrikes on residential areas over the past 13 days, constitutes a war crime that cannot be ignored,” the patriarchate said in a statement.

These are Orthodox Christians, not Muslim Jihadists, and they are being murdered while many American Christians cheer every bomb dropped by the IDF. Nor is Christian persecution limited to only Gaza and the West Bank. Christian persecution by radical Zionists, aided and abetted by the Israeli Government, has been increasing for years inside Israel – spitting attacks, beatings, violations and seizures of Holy Sites.

South Carolina alert!!! Youve got a big greasy snake on his way to your state! He is such a narcissist he will not give up. His lawsuit for fox news is to pay for his campaugn.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is wasting no time in testing the waters for a presidential run in 2028, planning a visit next week to rural South Carolina, hoping to find a warm reception among poor, black voters.

The South Carolina Democratic Party said that Newsom will focus on meeting Tuesday and Wednesday with rural voters in eight of the “the most economically challenged and environmentally vulnerable” counties.

Newsom’s theme will be a shared experience of natural disasters — though he has proven inept at managing them in his own state, whether leaving the country during blizzards or failing to provide water during fires.

GROK’s response to a baseball question – Interesting

The interaction between a pitcher’s delivery and a batter’s swing in baseball is a complex interplay of physics, perception, and reaction. Let’s break it down to address how a batter uses early clues, how accurate their swing needs to be, and how these factors result in a hit or a miss.

1. How Batters Use Early Clues
Batters rely on visual cues from the pitcher’s motion and the ball’s early trajectory to predict where the ball will be at the point of contact. Since fastballs, sliders, and drop balls (or curveballs) can be thrown with similar arm motions, the batter initially has little to differentiate them. Here’s how they approach it:
Release Point and Arm Angle: Batters first observe the pitcher’s release point and arm angle. While the motion may be similar, subtle differences (e.g., wrist angle or grip) can provide early hints, though these are often imperceptible in real-time due to the speed of the pitch (0.4–0.5 seconds from release to plate for a 90–100 mph fastball).
Ball Spin and Trajectory: As the ball travels, its spin and initial trajectory become critical. For example:
A fastball has backspin, causing it to appear to “rise” or drop less than expected.
A slider has lateral spin, leading to right or left movement (depending on the pitcher’s handedness).
A drop ball (or curveball) has topspin, causing it to dive downward. Batters begin to detect these movements about halfway through the pitch’s flight, but the extent of movement (a lot or a little) remains uncertain until later.
Prediction Based on Context: Batters also use situational cues, like the count (e.g., 3-2 favors a fastball), the pitcher’s tendencies, or scouting reports, to anticipate pitch type and movement.
Given the short time window, batters don’t have the luxury of waiting to confirm the pitch type or exact movement. They must make an educated guess based on these early clues and commit to a swing path, aiming for where they predict the ball will be at contact.

2. Accuracy of the Batter’s Swing
The batter’s swing is not a precise, laser-guided motion but rather a controlled, adjustable action designed to intersect a small, moving target (the ball) with a narrow hitting surface (the bat’s sweet spot, roughly 5–7 inches long and 2–3 inches wide). Here’s how swing accuracy plays out:
Swing Timing and Reaction Time: The average human reaction time is about 0.2–0.25 seconds, and a swing takes roughly 0.15 seconds to complete. For a 95 mph fastball (traveling ~0.4 seconds to the plate), the batter has less than 0.2 seconds to recognize the pitch and decide to swing. For slower pitches like a curveball (~75 mph, ~0.5 seconds), there’s slightly more time, but the increased movement complicates prediction.
Swing Path Adjustment: Elite batters can make minor adjustments mid-swing based on new information about the ball’s trajectory. For example, they might slightly alter their bat angle to account for a slider’s lateral break or a drop ball’s downward movement. However, these adjustments are limited by the swing’s momentum and the brief time available.
Contact Zone: The batter aims to hit the ball in a small “contact zone” where the bat’s sweet spot aligns with the ball’s path. The ball’s diameter is ~2.9 inches, and the bat’s diameter is ~2.6 inches at the barrel, so the margin for error is tiny. Hitting the ball squarely requires the bat to be within a few degrees of the ideal angle and position at the moment of contact.
3. How It Plays Together: Hit or Miss
Whether a batter hits or misses depends on how well their prediction, timing, and swing mechanics align with the ball’s actual path. Here’s how it comes together:
Prediction and Commitment: The batter uses early clues (release, spin, trajectory) to predict the ball’s location at contact. They commit to a swing path targeting a point in space in front of the plate where the bat reaches maximum velocity. If their prediction is off (e.g., expecting a fastball but getting a slider), the ball may move more or less than anticipated, leading to a miss or weak contact.
Movement and Deception: Pitches with significant movement (e.g., a slider breaking 6–12 inches laterally or a drop ball diving 12–18 inches) are harder to hit because the batter’s initial prediction becomes less reliable as the ball deviates. For example:
A fastball might stay relatively straight, making it easier to predict but harder to catch up to due to speed.
A slider’s late break can fool the batter into swinging where the ball was rather than where it ends up.
A drop ball’s downward movement can cause the batter to swing over the top.

Outcome Factors:
Hit: A hit occurs when the bat’s sweet spot contacts the ball within a narrow range of angles and positions, imparting enough force to send it into play. Solid contact (e.g., a line drive) typically requires the bat to be within ~5–10 degrees of perpendicular to the ball’s path and hit within the sweet spot.
Foul Ball: Contact outside the sweet spot or at a suboptimal angle often results in a foul ball, as the ball’s trajectory is altered but not optimally directed into fair territory.
Miss: A miss happens when the bat fails to intersect the ball’s path, either because the batter misjudged the pitch’s speed, location, or movement, or because their swing was too early, too late, or misaligned.
Weak Contact: If the batter makes contact but the ball hits the bat’s end or handle, or if the swing is mistimed, the result is often a pop-up or ground ball, which is less likely to become a hit.

4. Key Factors in Success
Experience and Skill: Elite batters develop pattern recognition through thousands of at-bats, allowing them to better anticipate pitch types and movement. They also have superior hand-eye coordination and swing mechanics.
Pitcher’s Effectiveness: A pitcher who disguises their pitches well (same arm motion, varied speeds, late movement) makes it harder for the batter to predict the ball’s path.
Count and Situation: In hitter-friendly counts (e.g., 2-0), batters can be more selective and anticipate certain pitches, improving their chances. In pitcher-friendly counts (e.g., 0-2), they may swing defensively, reducing accuracy.
Physical Factors: The ball’s movement (measured in inches of break) and speed differential between pitches (e.g., a 95 mph fastball vs. a 75 mph curveball) challenge the batter’s timing and prediction.

5. Quantitative Perspective
To illustrate, consider the timing and spatial challenges:
A 95 mph fastball travels 60.5 feet (mound to plate) in ~0.4 seconds. The batter must decide to swing by ~0.2 seconds, leaving ~0.2 seconds to execute the swing.
A slider might break 6–12 inches laterally in the final 20 feet, requiring the batter to adjust their aim point by up to a foot in less than 0.15 seconds.
The “hittable” contact zone is roughly a 6-inch cube (ball diameter plus bat width). The batter must align their swing to intersect this zone, with a margin of error of ~1–2 inches vertically and horizontally.

Conclusion
The batter uses early clues (release, spin, trajectory, context) to predict where the ball will be at contact and swings to intersect that point. Their swing is not perfectly accurate but relies on a combination of prediction, timing, and mid-swing adjustments to account for the ball’s movement. A hit results when the bat’s sweet spot aligns closely with the ball’s path, while a miss or weak contact occurs when the prediction or timing is off, especially against pitches with significant or deceptive movement. The interplay of the pitcher’s ability to disguise and move the ball, the batter’s reaction speed, and their skill in adjusting to late-breaking pitches determines the outcome.

That’s a shitty way to put it.

Gail Combs

Let’s hope Bondi has an actual workable plan.

scott467

From Brave browser search A.I. assist:

………………………………….
Congress Control Over District Courts
Yes, Congress has control over district courts. The U.S. Constitution authorizes Congress to establish a system of lower federal courts, including district courts, and to define their jurisdiction. 

Congress has the power to confer, withhold, and restrict the jurisdiction of these courts, as demonstrated by various legislative actions and judicial interpretations. For example, Congress can limit the types of cases that district courts can hear and can also impose restrictions on the procedures and practices of these courts. 

Additionally, the Supreme Court has affirmed that Congress is empowered to define the jurisdiction of inferior federal courts and to withhold jurisdiction of any of the enumerated cases and controversies in Article III.”
………………………………..
.

So Congress can end the nonsense, but they won’t, at least not until Trump gives them a super majority, at which point he can shame and embarrass and humiliate them into putting an end to it, and threaten to primary them in the next election if they don’t.

Gail Combs

This is something I just listened to from Barnes (& Viva Frie) Barnes is saying the inferior courts are grabing power Congress never granted them. (Think creeping progressivism)

Rough transcription:

@ 1:26:19 BARNES: The Constitution provides that Congress decides all the authority of the inferior court. All but the Supreme Court. So that is what Congress has done.

Well Congress passed the The Judiciary Act of 1789  back to the time of our founding. And that law has not substantively changed in many respects. That law said the federal, district, and appellate courts have all the equitable jurisdiction of the Chancery Courts in England at the time…

In England you could appeal to the King’s conscience if the rules of law did not protect you. You could apeal to the King’s conscience and say this is an unjust outcome please set it aside… The King delegated this to his Chancellor who created Chancery courts. These became the source of equitable power in English law.

@ 1:27:23 BARNES: But by that very nature, as the Supreme Court went thru in it’s decision, that is usually an INDIVIDUALIZED assessment. By definition it is not going to be a class action, by definition it is not going to be universal.

And so the congress only gave lower courts the power the Chancery courts of England had at the time. That meant universal injunctions, injunctions beyond the parties to the case is foreign to equitable jurisdiction…. [the inferior courts] only have the power congress granted at the founding and that has not changed because Congress has not extended or expanded that power… The Supreme Court said “No, you do not have universal injunction power you never did.”

Listen until 1:33:00

Barnes THINKS Jackson was refreshingly candid and showed she could give a rats pitootie about the law. She is only concerned about accruing power for the Democrats. She is not a judicial supremacist she is a liberal supremacist. That is the thing to understand about liberals. They do not respect rules, they do not respect law.. He thinks this reveal SHOCKED Barrett a bit and that is why she wrote such a scathing comment. He dislikes Roberts but thinks he is smart enough to realize the lower courts must be reined in or the insane courts will cause the judiciary to lose it’s legitimacy

Hakeem Speaks
 
The outlook wasn’t brilliant for the Democrats that day;
The score stood 9 to zip, with Trump winning all the way.
Schumer and Pelosi couldn’t help, they’re senile and lame,
And the Left’s loud media lies couldn’t give Trump the blame.
 
Some Dems in Congress shuffled out in deep despair,
Others gripped afleeting hope, their pain difficult to bear;
They thought, if only someone bold could rise up to speak
Their hopes might start to rise, their prospects not so bleak.
 
Then through their weary murmers, there arose a feeble call,
Meandering through velvet seats and down the marbled halls;
It seemed so quite half-hearted, its echo soft and weak,
But now Hakeem Jeffries was advancing up to speak.
 
There was ease in Hakeem’s manner as he claimed the speaker’s place;
There was pride in Hakeem’s bearing and a smirk on Hakeem’s face.
And when, amidst the stifled yawns, he nodded to his flock,
Most Dems wished for escape, but that fool Hakeem’s gonna talk.
 
Dems eyes were all on him, as he rubbed his hands in glee,
Then tugged his bulky diaper in which he hoped to pee.
Defiance flashed in Hakeem’s gaze, a sneer curled Hakeem’s lip.
He preened and posed a moment more – he had them in his grip.
 
As Hakeem stood there speaking with haughty, lofty flair,
The half truths and bald-faced lies came wafting through the air.
The accusations came hard and fast, he said that Trump would fail,
That he was acting like a king, and he should go to jail.
 
The last Repubs left the hall, shaking heads and saying “fraud”
But with one scornful look from Hakeem, the Dems all applaud.
With a smile of well pleased delight, great Hakeem’s visage glowed;
He basked in the faint applause, then continued with his show.
 
That “magic minute” stretched on and on, it was getting late;
The sneer grew big on Hakeem’s lips, his teeth are clenched in hate;
His hands gestured with every word, motions that served no cause,
As he proposed dumb woke rules that he wanted to be laws.
 
They saw his face grow stern and cold, they saw his muscles strain,
They didn’t know that what he’d done is poop his pants again.
He’d peed in his diaper twice and a foul stench arose,
Front row Dems choked and gagged while others held their nose.
 
He pounds the lectern with small fists, sweat runs freely off his face,.
He screams that Trump is lower than low and will be put in his place.
He glances quickly at his watch and gives a well-pleased grin.
He’s now done. It’s all through. He yields his time back again.
 
Oh, all across this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The bands are playing gaily,  Republican hearts are light,
And somewhere Trump is laughing, the Deplorables all shout;
But there is no joy in Dems’ hearts – that fool Hakeem had struck out.

O Lord God Almighty, as you have taught us to call the evening, the morning, and the noonday one day; and have made the sun to know its going down: Dispel the darkness of our hearts, that by your brightness we may know you to be the true God and eternal light, living and reigning for ever and ever. Amen.

Seek him who made the Pleiades and Orion, and turns deep darkness into the morning, and darkens the day into night; who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out upon the surface of the earth: The Lord is his name. Amen.

Amos 5:8

It has come to my attention that Washington Post reporter @nakashimae appears to be actively harassing ODNI staff. Instead of reaching out to my press office, she is calling high level Intelligence Officers from a burner phone, refusing to identify herself, lying about the fact that she works for the Washington Post, and then demanding they share sensitive information.

Apparently, publishing leaked classified material wasn’t enough for the Washington Post, so now they’ve decided to go after the Intelligence professionals charged to protect it.

This is a clear political op by the same outlet and the same reporter who harassed and stalked my family in Hawaii.

This kind of deranged behavior reflects a media establishment so desperate to sabotage @POTUS’s successful agenda that they’ve abandoned even a facade of journalistic integrity and ethics. The Washington Post should be ashamed, and they should put an end to this immediately.

The last sentence will bring tears to the eyes of WGTT admirers.

The things I learn here.
Such as, “boys never really grow up.” lol

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Actually my GF at the time thought it was hilarious and pointed it out to me.

But then she was in Daaaang territory so it’s easier to be amused.

Gudthots

DD = double the sports tape if you want to enjoy going for a run.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Dang!

Gudthots

NB: I don’t ever enjoy running and I have no direct experience with taping up the girls. Just second hand information. And a quick search doesn’t offer any examples. My shape allows for support choices that are better for lymphatic drainage, etc.

There’s sort of a corrolary to that in “Girls never stop trying to tell boys what to do and how and when to do it. Never.”

Gudthots

I believe you!

If girls insisted, then boys would have to — but women like their men to retain some boyishness.

I have to show this to the DW, she’s been on a diet the last year and doing fantastic. Well the WGTT’s have responded accordingly……

Notwithstanding the list above, I prefer real to fake even if there’s a significant size difference.

This opinion piece offers some important insights into where it’s going, what could happen, and options for preventing more oppression of Americans.

The Clean Slate Doctrine: Reclaiming the American Economy

An Open Letter to President Trump on Behalf of the American People: The Urgent Case for a Clean Slate and Citizen-Centered Financial Renewal

[article link]

Letter:

President Trump (@realDonaldTrump),

If I may be direct with youthis is the moment to do something no one’s had the guts to do. Currently, we stand at the threshold of a comprehensive financial transition. The IRS is already automated through the aACS system. It’s not coming—it’s here. Taxes are now enforced in real-time by AI. Every dollar moved is scanned, cross-referenced, and verified automatically. There’s no more need for audits, courtrooms, or filing cabinets. The system is self-enforcing. And that’s precisely why this is the right time to wipe the slate clean.

Carrying over the mountain of old tax debts and broken compliance structures into this new system only makes the machine work harder to clean up the past. That’s not modernization—that’s digital punishment. However, if we eliminate all back tax debt, forgive penalties, and start fresh, we free up the IRS and ACS to focus on the present. No more bureaucratic baggage. No more fear. It simplifies everything. People aren’t hiding. They’re ready to participate.

Do you want energy in the economy? Do this. People will feel free again—no garnishments, no liens, no looking over their shoulders for a bill from ten years ago. They’ll spend, invest, take risks. It would give Americans something they haven’t had in a long time: hope. And you’d be the one who gave it to them.

It’s not just about fairness—it’s strategic. The system is now capable of real-time taxation at the point of transaction. You don’t need to chase people anymore. With a clean slate, the system starts as it should have always been—simple, instant, and transparent. You remove the fear, you restore dignity, and you finally let Americans thrive in the economy you rebuilt.

Sir, you always said you’d do what no one else would. This is it. Reset the system. Make it new. Let the people breathe.

Respectfully.

T.O.R.E.

It is DONE.

Big Beautiful Bill is now LAW.

And Tom Homan can start spending ALL that money ridding us of illegals. Thank goodness.

It actually makes me feel a little bad to be so glad, but America is the only country in the world with the expectation that any and all people should be able to show up here and just stay, no questions asked. It’s ridiculous.

Just because Americans are fortunate and live in the best country on Earth, doesn’t mean we can take care of everybody else.

I really wonder what would happen if all the countries were given a fresh start, with a duplicate of our Constitution as their law of the land. I suspect it would be like most of the people who win the lottery; they are bankrupt in just a few years. They don’t know how to handle it.

People all over the world think America is the greatest, which we are, but I don’t think the citizenry of those countries as a whole has the independence of spirit that makes an American. Individuals from any nation can have it, and come to America, assimilate, and be successful. But not whole random groups of foreign nationals. They revert to their inborn and trained traits and support each other as they fail.

Gail Combs

I think you are correct.

Also 60-70 years ago there WAS no welfare, or food stamps or other safety nets that were extended to illegals too. Social Security and Unemployment Compensation came in to effect in 1935 but ‘welfare’ was not enacted until 1964 under LBJ.

That meant if you came to this country you had to WORK and not sit and collect freebies.

Gudthots

The happy economist tells us about the bill.
Thank you Mr. Hassett

I really love this guy. He always makes me smile.😍

My favorite economist by far. Happy Hassett is the best!

I’m a little perplexed. PTrump spent his own $$$ to erect two 80 ft flag poles with large flags on them, yet I can’t find a single photo that backs away from the White House a bit so you can see both flags.

It is the usual Demonrat grandstanding for political sound bites.

Aubergine

I think somebody should tell the Demoncrats they can go into anywhere they want. They just can’t come back out again. Their choice.

Why did they shut them out?!?

Let them IN, and lock the door.

I wonder how many other people PTrump has held off on to tell them to resign or face prosecution. He held off to get the BBB passed.

According to an article forwarded by General Flynn, PTrump has told Fed Chief Jerome Powell that he must either resign or face charges about building a “Fed Palace” with $2.5 billion tax dollars and then lying about it under oath to congress.

duchess01

WHOA !!!

bakocarl

Let’s hope that the report is true and that the FED’s stranglhold on our money can be completely broken.

duchess01

WASN’T THE FED FOLDED INTO THE TREASURY ?

AUDIT THE FED AND RETURM THE STOLEN MONEY BACK TO ‘WE THE PEOPLE’ WITH INTEREST !!!

THE FED IS AN ILLEGAL ENTITY – DOGE CAN UNCOVER THE FRAUD AND DISMANTLE IT !!!

GOD WILL END IT ALL BECAUSE THE GOLD AND THE SILVER ARE HIS !!!


SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

No…one article said that after a logical leap. Actually it said Trump had assumed control over the Fed.

Does it look like he assumed control all those years ago?

I tried pointing out the article didn’t bring evidence of its claim, just asserted it, but my words fell on blind eyes.

duchess01

HMMM…INTERESTING !!!

WILL HAVE TO LOOK INTO THIS FURTHER – THANKS !!!

THOUGHTS ???

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Sounds like hopium to me…at least to the extent of predicting the Fed’s imminent demise. People have been predicting that it would be any-day-now for decades.

duchess01

I AM NOT BIG ON HOPIUM – IF I COULD FIND A Q PROOF – IT MIGHT BE MORE BELIEVABLE –

HOWEVER – ‘ANY DAY NOW’ CANNOT POSSIBLY HAPPEN – BUT – BY THE END OF A BUDGET YEAR OR A FISCAL YEAR – IT IS PROBABLE !!!

THE TREASURY AND THE FED CAN NO LONGER EXIST TOGETHER – IMHO – POWEL IS GOING DOWN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER – AND EVEN IF HE IS REPLACED – IT WILL BE WITH A ‘CLEANUP MAN’ !!!

AND – NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD !!! 😄

Earlier on Friday, officials with Camp Mystic, a Christian girls camp located about 18 miles northwest of Kerrville, confirmed that at least 23 girls were missing, Breitbart Texas reported.  The camp had about 750 people in attendance as the river rose. The acting governor said the missing girls could be caught in tries (like the dramatic rescue captured in the video above). Camp Mystic officials notified all of the parents of the missing girls.
