Dear KMAG: 20250714 Trump Won Three Times ❀ Open Topic


Joe Biden never won. This is our Real President – 45, 46, 47.

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And yes, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will always remember Wheatie,

Pray for Trump,

Yet have fun,

and HOLD ON when things get crazy!


We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:

Wheatie’s Rules:

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

And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:

“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

jud

noun

  • mass of coal ready for final removal
  • block of coal about 4 yd (3.7 m) square, holed and cut ready for breaking down
  • applied to a working place, usually 6 to 8 yd (5.5 to 7.3 m) wide, driven in a pillar of coal

Used in a sentence

When a jud has been driven the distance required, the timber and rails are removed, and this is termed ‘drawing a jud‘.

Size shown (roughly) in a picture

MUSIC!

Coal In The Family!


THE STUFF

Face the realities of the history of coal mining!

Coal. Still. Useful. Stuff.

Just sayin’!

And remember…….

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!

And as always….

ENJOY THE SHOW

Interesting about “jud,” which I had never heard of. (Now I have the song “Poor Jud is Dead,” from Oklahoma!, stuck in my head. 😅)

Same here. I wonder if they used that name on purpose.

Since some parents do not have all those skills, if schools are going to insist on courses like Home Ec course and Shop, this actually makes more sense.

When I was younger I stopped to change flat tires for several other women.

Having admitted:

“Mr. Biden did not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons that applied to large numbers of people, he and aides confirmed. Rather, after extensive discussion of different possible criteria, he signed off on the standards…”

I think there would be a real tough time proving ANY actual Presidential pardons happened.

kalbokalbs

I’d like the pardons sorted out in Court.

Any Not specifically approved, with factual evidence, voided. Or whatever legal term.

Gail Combs

It absolutely needs to go to court.

The Biden fiasco illustrates the major problem with an autopen. If the President does not physically sign an official document there is doubt. Therefore it should ONLY be used for piddling stuff.

ALSO, the President was the one elected. It is up to him to actually be the administrator not some unknown staffer. On top of that, if there is TOO MUCH for him to sign, it means HE IS NOT DOING HIS JOB, someone else is.

I expect him to READ the EOs and laws he signs not just rubber stamp them. If that were to happen maybe we would have a lot less asinine laws!

pgroup2

Legally, there can be NO inquiry that is initiated regarding the validity of various pardons.

So how does it get determined?

A prosecution that puts a person in criminal jeopardy is initiated. Most likely, the ‘pardon’ person will plead the pardon as an affirmative defense to being prosecuted.

At that point, the value of the pardon can be determined. If it is determined to be valid, the prosecution gets dismissed. If it is determined to be invalid, the prosecution proceeds.

The prosecution will be suspended while the entire process gets reviewed by SCOTUS regardless of the trial court’s ruling.

This process must be done individually in order to provide due process to each ‘pardon’ recipient.

Hope this helps.

German officials, aware of Biden’s fatigue at night, sought to accommodate the president by planning a June 2022 event with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in the early evening.

The informal event, a soiree at the Alpine resort Schloss Elmau during the Group of Seven summit, was arranged as a confidential meeting on Ukraine in a relaxed setting. Biden didn’t show, surprising the chancellor and his aides, officials said. Instead, Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived and announced that Biden had to go to bed, according to two people who were there.

A suspect shot a Kentucky State Police trooper before fleeing to a nearby church, where additional shootings left multiple people injured and two dead on Sunday.

The suspect, who has not been publicly identified, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The incident began at approximately 11:36 a.m. local time when the suspect shot the trooper during an encounter in Fayette County.

The suspect then fled and arrived at Richmond Road Baptist Church in a rural part of Lexington, where Kentucky State Police and Lexington Police Department officers confronted him.

Multiple injured victims were reported at the church. An injured officer was transported to a hospital for medical care.

Governor Andy Beshear confirmed that two people were killed, in addition to the shooter.

BREAKING: BIDEN AUTOPEN SCANDAL: NY Times Confirms Biden Did Not Sign Off on All Pardons – WH Chief of Staff Zeints Approved Fauci’s Pardon

TheseTruths

From the article:

It was revealed that Joe Biden did not approve of each name for the pardons – AND after changes were made about the specific inmates, Biden did NOT sign off on the revised list. Rather, his aides just ran the final version through the autopen without Biden’s approval. 

“Mr. Biden did not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons that applied to large numbers of people, he and aides confirmed. Rather, after extensive discussion of different possible criteria, he signed off on the standards he wanted to be used to determine which convicts would qualify for a reduction in sentence,” The New York Times reported.

I don’t think telling aides what standards to use so they could decide about the pardons is how it’s supposed to be done. I’d like to know what the next steps will be.

gil00

Yes exactly. Thats not legitimate to me so what is next? Unknown territory.

It will probably have to go to the Supreme Court. With luck they will rule that the autopen can not be used for OFFICIAL BUSINESS. Thank You letters and such correspondence are fine.

Secret Service Failed to Discipline Agent at Heart of Security Failures in Butler, PA – Agent Warned 25 Minutes BEFORE Shooting that Thomas Crooks was on Roof with Rangefinder

A damning new report from the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee outlines the massive security failures one year ago in Butler, Pennsylvania, that nearly killed President Trump. 

One of the most chilling findings in the report is that the Secret Service did not even discipline an agent who was made aware of the shooter 25 minutes before he fired eight rounds at the President and innocent rallygoers, but did nothing.

The 22-page report, which examines the “stunning failures by the United States Secret Service (USSS) that allowed then-former President Donald J. Trump to be shot on July 13, 2024,” was released on the one-year anniversary of the incident. 

“One year later, the facts remain as chilling as ever: a former President of the United States and major party candidate was shot in the head at a public rally by an individual who was reported as suspicious and carrying a rangefinder to the Secret Service at least 25 minutes prior,” the report’s summary reads. 

Another report from the Government Accountability Office reveals that the Secret Service was made aware of a threat against Trump’s life ten days prior, but did not alert the team responsible for securing Trump’s July 13, 2024, rally.

“What happened in Butler, Pennsylvania, was not just a tragedy—it was a scandal. The United States Secret Service failed to act on credible intelligence, failed to coordinate with local law enforcement, and failed to prevent an attack that nearly took the life of a then-former president,” Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee Chairman Rand Paul (R-KY) said in a press release.

“Despite those failures, no one has been fired. And we only know what little discipline was handed out because I issued a subpoena. That’s unacceptable. This was not a single lapse in judgment. It was a complete breakdown of security at every level—fueled by bureaucratic indifference, a lack of clear protocols, and a shocking refusal to act on direct threats. We must hold individuals accountable and ensure reforms are fully implemented so this never happens again.”

The report found that an unnamed Secret Service security room agent, “the individual in charge of communications,” who was partially identified as the Special Agent in Charge of the USSS Buffalo, New York, Field Office, was allegedly informed about a suspicious individual carrying a rangefinder 25 minutes before the shooting. That individual later turned out to be 20-year-old gunman Thomas Crooks. 

“The job of a Security Room Agent is to be the conduit of communications between all entities involved in a protective site in order to ensure situational awareness of all parties involved in securing the event,” the report notes. 

The agent decided to have the Secret Service counter-unmanned aerial systems agent relay this information via phone to the USSS Counter Sniper Response Agent, instead of his radio, and therefore, “the message did not go out to USSS post standers, counter snipers, and DTD shift detail,” the report states. The report also describes the operator, tasked with managing counter-unmanned aerial systems, as “inexperienced.”

According to the report, a Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) Officer told the PSP and FBI in a joint interview that he had notified the security room agent of the potential threat, but the agent appeared to ignore it. “It wasn’t like he rushed around or did anything,” the PSP officer said…

Of course they wouldn’t discipline the agent, why would they?

It’s a CORRUPT agency.

It’s the definition of a corrupt agency, when not even a pretense of ‘heads will roll’ happens, and instead, they just give the American People the middle finger.

There was no ‘breakdown’. The agency was weaponized against MAGA, and against DJT specifically, like every other agency of gov’t.

And they still are.

This report is part of the cover up. Even the people who published the report won’t name the ‘SS security room agent’ who was derelict in his or her duty.

He or she gets to hide in anonymity, keep working, keep collecting a paycheck, pension safe and sound, like nothing happened.

He or she could be guarding POTUS today, for all we know.

Zero accountability, which is in-your-face evidence of a totally compromised agency.

The Secret Service agent needs to be NAMED so Corey Comperatore’s family can SUE the SOB into poverty.

Also he needs to be brought up on charges of ACCESSORY TO MURDER BEFORE THE FACT.

Let him deal with lawfare.

He cannot be sued as an individual – only as an official. Therefore, any damage award will be paid out of the U.S. Treasury.

scott467

Yes, but they are also created practically INSTANTLY, and don’t require hiring an artist.

Several yootoobers I watch regularly have mentioned that they used to have to pay someone several hundred dollars a week to do the thumbnails for their videos.

It’s a business, and the thumbnails are an expense, if you want them to draw viewers consistently.

Once A.I. became good enough for content creators to make professional looking thumbnails in seconds, they could fire their art department and save hundreds of dollars a week.

So that is why it is happening.

_____________

Good questions, for which there are also good answers 👍

If you go to youtube, you will notice that practically ALL of the videos show people with emotional reactions on their faces.

Eyes big, hands up to mouth, etc.

That is because youtube’s algorithms promote those types of videos, so if a content creator wants his videos to bubble up to the top out of all the millions of videos being posted to yootoob each day, there are multiple things they need to do.

I don’t know what all of them are, but I have heard content creators explain to their regular members (people who subscribe to their yootoob channel) that they don’t like making those thumbnail photos with the weird expressions on their faces, but they have to do it, to help boost their videos in the algorithms.

Everything is driven by various metrics, and the thumbnail photo (showing bewilderment, rage, shock, surprise, etc.) is one of the big ones.

The title also makes a difference, which is why titles are so click-baity. Length makes a difference too, that’s why so many yootoob videos are ~10 minutes long.

.

…which refers to the content of the videos. As I said, I’ve seen the news; I don’t need to see someone’s emotions about it as they speak.

scott467

“…which refers to the content of the videos. As I said, I’ve seen the news; I don’t need to see someone’s emotions about it as they speak.”

______________

Okay, I misunderstood, you’re talking about the presentation style of the yootoob host him or her self.

I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure that yootoobers are moving away from the Walter Cronkite / Dan Rather style of presentation, to something much more informal and personalized.

If you don’t particularly like someone’s on-air personality, that is going to make watching them difficult, if not impossible.

Like the lovely wymyns of The View.

Their style really doesn’t work for me 😁

He is a real estate mogul as far as I can tell, so he does a lot of financial commentary, which is how I originally found him.

He covers politics, at least to the extent that it impacts the financial markets, usually meaning things like the FED and rate cuts, tariffs and their impact, inflation, etc.

I don’t think he’s anti-Trump, but he’s not pro-Trump either, and he regularly demonstrates that he doesn’t understand Trump at all.

He is also a pilot (private, not commercial), so he has been doing a lot of commentary on the Air India crash too.

Many people do not realize that ponies, mules and horses were used in the coal mines into the 1980s and 1990s. This because of the gas explosion hazard making motors too dangerous.

This is a really great article with lots of photos and engravings. well worth a look, if for nothing else the photos.

Pit Ponies – Ghosts of the Coal Mines
comment image

Stone and Bronze Age flint axes have been found embedded in coal, evidence that people were using it for fuel long before the Roman invasion. In the 13th century, coal seams were found along shorelines of northern England, and settlers dug them up then followed them inland under cliffs or hills, the earliest beginnings of drift mining. But with the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, coal mining exploded, providing fuel for steam engines, transportation, and home heating…

“People who visit the Museum are under the impression that Shetland ponies were mainly used as pit ponies. In fact, all sizes were used, from Shetlands to Shires. In different parts of the country, the width of coal seams varied considerably. Thick coal seams meant high [ceiling] roadways. Large ponies and horses could be found working in these mines. Small ponies such as Welsh ponies and Shetlands [in England] worked in small seams with low tops. Many scraped their heads as they worked as the roadways were so low. Welsh mines commonly used larger Welsh cobs, around 15 hands.”

In ex-miner Ceri Thompson’s book Harnessed: Colliery Horses in Wales, he documents the widespread use of small Shire horses in the main roadways in the mines. Animals larger than ponies were used because the drams held up to a ton and a half of material compared to the smaller half-ton tubs in most English coalfields….

n Pennsylvania, some of the oldest mines used oxen, then mules, to pull the coal cars in and out of the mines. Mules were preferred over electric mine motors and were used right up to the mid-1950s when many mines were shut down. Motors ran on an overhead electric trolley line and, in the presence of even a small gas problem, a spark could trigger an explosion – using mules avoided that hazard. The mules were smart, hard-working, and they could pull at least three full mine cars of coal.

A better life! Carl (grey) and Sparky, retired pit ponies from Ellington Colliery, lived out their retirement at the museum. Carl, one of the last pit ponies to come out of a British mine, came to the surface in 1994. Ellington Colliery was actually under the North Sea as well as underground.

cthulhu

From the linked article:

Many harmful gases or “damps” were produced during mining operations. Firedamp, which occurs naturally in coal seams, is nearly always methane, and is highly flammable and explosive. Carbon monoxide (white damp) is particularly toxic, and as little as 0.1 percent can cause death. An excess of carbon dioxide and nitrogen in the air (black damp) is an atmosphere in which a flame lamp will not burn. Stinkdamp refers to hydrogen sulfide, characterized by a rotten egg smell. The gas mixture found in a mine after a fire or explosion is called afterdamp.

Gail Combs

Canaries were used to detect dangerous gases. Their higher metabolism meant they would keel over much sooner than a human.

Hence the saying ‘Canary in a coal mine’ as a warning.

The father of my son’s wife was an inspector for coalmines in WV. He served the military for 20 years before that.

My maternal grandfather (Edmund, known to me as “Poppa”), who was born in 1892, was working in a coal mine in the Masontown, PA, area starting when he was 10 years old — he, and other young children, were literally “harnessed” to the little “railroad cars” that were in the mine to carry out slag and other debris from the mining, up to the surface of the mine. He worked 12-hour days, 6 days a week. His older brother, Johnnie, also worked in this mine as a “slag train human mule.” Both of them lived in the “children’s barracks” on the coal mine property.

Edmund and Johnnie had been hrown out of the family home in McClellandtown, PA, by THEIR father right after his wife (their mother) passed away. They were told to go and find a job and not to come back to the family home. The father kept his daughters at the family home until they each became 16 years old, then they had to leave and find work also. One of the daughters, “Great-Aunt Margaret”, became a “trained nurse” and worked for a wealthy “minor steel magnate” family in Pittsburgh (the Fitzpatrick family) as a private nurse for the magnate’s children.

My grandfather, Edmund, at age 15, and now working as a coal miner (not as a “human mule”) in the mine, decided that he wanted a better life. He started taking high school diploma courses through what at that time was called the International Correspondence School, based in Scranton, PA (now called ICS Learn and still in business.) I have his copy of the “Principles of Business” course book that he took as part of the curriculum. He graduated with a high school diploma and immediately quit the mine, went to Pittsburgh, and became a patternmaker apprentice at a steel mill. His brother, Johnnie, also quit the mine and left to find another job. I don’t know what became of Johnnie.

Unfortunately that is the type of life the Cabal/Criminal Syndicate is imposing on a LOT of todays children in the countries the CIA/Operation Galdio units have overthrown for the Transnational Corporations.

There is a HELLISH back story to the The Democratic Republic of the Congo–Rwanda peace agreement. I have not bothered writing about it because it will trigger people.

OPERATION GLADIO – CHAPTER 57 – “INTERNATIONAL SYNDICATE – WHO ARE THEY?” PART 2- EP.423
Per usual, the Colonel strings together a whole bunch of documents.

Start about 18:30.

Epstein was NOTHING compared to what these people are doing!

Gail Combs

At 1:04:30 …Men holding the hands of their children….
That had been cut off because they had not made their quote that day at the mines… the horrific conditions these people were placed under by these greedy bastards is beyond the imagination of anybody that lives in the First World country… And these were OUR governments… from Belguim, the Netherlands…

You are welcome. I figured most people were unaware that horses and ponies were still working in the mines here and in the UK into the 1980s and 1990s.

I think Praying Medic is onto something. The question becomes WHO GOT THE BIDS, WHY the cost over runs and what relation does all this have to Powell.

Remember the DemonRats got rid of Trump’s appointed Architect of the Capitol, AND member of the Capitol Police Board, Brett Blanton because of dinky crap.

Achitectural Record Scandal-Plagued Architect of the Capitol Brett Blanton Ousted by Biden

Nasty bit of SMEAR, such as  he wasn’t a trained or licensed architect. Nope, he was a  professional Civil Engineer  SEE WIKI

Engineering News: Watchdog Accuses Architect of the Capitol of Ethics Violations

Architect of the Capitol J. Brett Blanton and his family allegedly improperly used government-owned vehicles, abused his authority, misused government property and wasted taxpayer money, according to a new government watchdog report.

An Oct. 26 report from the AOC’s Office of Inspector General identified unauthorized use of government resources by Blanton, as well as by his wife and adult daughter, in the Washington D.C. metro area and in West Virginia, South Carolina and Florida. Blanton and his family put more than 18,000 additional miles on three AOC vehicles beyond what he needed for work and what would constitute minor incidental use, investigators say… 

POLITICO — Is Trump Using an Obscure Architecture Board to Fire Jerome Powell?

…President Donald Trump ousted Joe Biden’s appointees to the National Capital Planning Commission, the obscure panel that oversees urban planning for the Washington area. And instead of the usual wonky architecture types, the replacements are sharply political White House heavyweights: Staff Secretary Will Scharf, Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair and Stuart Levenbach, an aide to Office of Management and Budget chief Russell Vought.

On the face of it, it seemed like a strange use of senior officials’ time….

Blair took the mic for his maiden speech to the group to do just that. “We should not be made fools of,” he thundered, referencing a renovation project to the Fed’s headquarters that he called far more opulent than the one the Planning Commission approved. Blair cited a professor who implied Powell had lied under oath to the Senate about the renovation, which has become a refrain for GOP officials and conservative media.

As my colleagues Victoria Guida and Declan Harty reported this month, some Republicans see the controversy as a reason for Trump to fire Powell for cause — thereby avoiding a legal crisis over his desire to remove the head of an independent federal body.

“I am going to request a full review of plans of the Federal Reserve project,” Blair said, referring to the project as the “Taj Mahal on the National Mall.” “I’m going to ask that they send us a detailed explanation package of any and all upgrades, changes and modifications to the plan that was submitted here in 2021 and approved,” he added. “I’m going to request a site visit.”

His fellow Trump appointees concurred. “Please count me in,” said Levenbach. “I look forward to working with you on this letter and in scrutinizing this building.” The other commissioners — who include appointees of D.C.’s local government, congressional committees and cabinet agencies — stayed quiet.

It was, to say the least, an unusual moment for a largely apolitical commission that has rarely made news during its 101-year history. The audience for Blair’s remarks was largely made up of architects with business before the panel. I was the lone person sitting in the area reserved for the media….

But in Washington, this little-noticed moment served as a reminder of something Trump himself said at a Tuesday cabinet meeting: He has a lot of power over the shape of the city, and he intends to use it. The Planning Commission has the power to approve or reject not just federal buildings, but also D.C. government projects and privately-owned properties in certain core parts of the capital….

…the leverage comes in the form of the Planning Commission’s approval of the initial plan for the headquarters, which calls for 👉“additions that should emphasize the Federal Reserve’s civic importance while being modest and restrained.👈 During the session, the Trump appointees to the panel said the now-$2.5 billion price tag didn’t comport with the promise of modesty. Blair told me afterward that his concerns were unrelated to the tussle over interest rates….

Gateway Pundit Waste of the Day: Fed Reserve Gets “Palace of Versailles” Renovation

….Topline: The planned renovation of the Federal Reserve’s office buildings will cost $2.5 billion and include rooftop gardens, skylights, water displays and more, according to planning documents reviewed by the New York Post.

The Senate Banking Committee held a hearing on June 25 to investigate the renovation, where Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell testified under oath that, 👉“There’s no VIP dining room, there’s no new marble. There are no special elevators. There are no new water features, there’s no beehives, and there’s no roof terrace gardens.”🙄

On June 30, the Post published a follow-up story with direct excerpts of the building plans filed with the National Capital Planning Commission. According to the Post, the plans state that 👉The private dining rooms on Level 4 will be restored,” and “The Governors’ private elevator will be extended to discharge at the dining suite level.” There is also a mention of “vegetated roof terraces” that will welcome “urban wildlife and pollinators” and new marble and water features.😡

Regardless of whether Powell or the Post is correct, it’s clear the Federal Reserve renovation will be a huge expense for taxpayers.

  :wpds_arrow: The project was supposed to cost $1.9 billion when it was approved in 2019, but the Federal Reserve blames the cost overrun to $2.5 billion on the rising price of building materials…

I think if I was Powell I would quit ASAP before the rectal exam!

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 Monday, July 14, 2025

“Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.” 

Psalms 25:1 (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR PSALMS 25

Confidence in prayer. (1-7) Prayer for remission of sins. (8-14) For help in affliction. (15-22)

(1-7) “In worshipping God, we must lift up our souls to him. It is certain that none who, by a believing attendance, wait on God, and, by a believing hope, wait for him, shall be ashamed of it. The most advanced believer both needs and desires to be taught of God. If we sincerely desire to know our duty, with resolution to do it, we may be sure that God will direct us in it. The psalmist is earnest for the pardon of his sins. When God pardons sin, he is said to remember it no more, which denotes full remission. It is God’s goodness, and not ours, his mercy, and not our merit, that must be our plea for the pardon of sin, and all the good we need. This plea we must rely upon, feeling our own unworthiness, and satisfied of the riches of God’s mercy and grace. How boundless is that mercy which covers for ever the sins and follies of a youth spent without God and without hope! Blessed be the Lord, the blood of the great Sacrifice can wash away every stain.”

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.

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE ABSENT FOR ANY REASON – WE JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW WE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU !!!

MISSING YOU

The family is quiet
I really know not why
There has been no real riot
Nothing that meets the eye

We were flourishing and strong
Even with the stress of each day
Then suddenly something went wrong
And we have somehow lost our way

Something has gone adrift
And split our family apart
There was a sudden shift
An attack on every heart

Some say life has gotten in the way
Too many distractions they bear
Some say away they must stay
And take solace away in prayer

Some are dealing with pain
Of the physical and the mental
From interaction they abstain
Thus with all we must be gentle

With whatever you are dealing
We will keep you in prayer
That God provide the healing
Be comforted and aware

If you have a problem with another
Let it not fester inside
Ask God for help with sister/brother
Let peace in your heart abide

Forgiveness is a blessing
Like no other that I know
It’s power to relieve the stressing
The hurt and pain it will slow

Please check in and let us know
You are okay and just fine
Let us hear and see you glow
Let your light for us it shine

Pray and then pray again
For God to give you a sign
Bring out the great Amen
And with us all be fine !!!

Coal. Thanks for brining coal to the QTree.. Bonus was a fav. Coal Miner’s Daughter.

Among its myriad of uses, as Wolf posted the other day, energy to power Tesla’s.   :wpds_evil: 

Libtard war on energy is evil.

Coal, oil, natural gas in the US is seemingly endless supply. Easily mined, drilled for or otherwise recovered. Can be done safely and without damaging the environment.

Each of them an incredible cash cow for America. High paying jobs AND export products. Pays dividends strengthening the Dollar.

Solar and wind can’t come close to being economical, affordable AND my understanding, certainly is not “Green”.

Good morning, C&C, it’s Monday! We have a long-overdue but exciting new multiplier; you’re going to love it. The roundup includes: the Epstein train wreck falls off another cliff as Wired exposes undisclosed DOJ video manipulation; Trump negotiates a lucrative deal for somebody else to pay for Zelensky’s weapons supplies; Trump’s new tariffs terrify uncooperative countries trying to wait out the lawsuits; the Times starts to catch on that Trump might not actually TACO; and MTG takes another swipe at the tax code with one of the most exciting tax cuts yet put on the table.

para59r

I Grok’d this and later saw Beth’s comment. Beth is right.

Beth

I am a tax accountant. And yes the exemption is $250,000 for a single person and $500,000 for a married couple. To calculate the gain you would take the amount paid for it (base price) and add to that base the cost of any improvements that have been made while owning the home. Here’s an example:

Purchase price: $100,000

Improvements made $50,000

Base price: $150,000

Sale price $400,000

Gain: $250,000

Exemption $250,000 or $500,000

The capital gain falls under the exemption so it is not taxable.

In all my years as a tax accountant, I have never had a client who had to pay capital gains on the sale of their personal residence. Improvements can be just about anything. New shrubbery, paint, new kitchen, flooring, an addition, etc. It’s easy to come up with enough items through the years to skirt the capital gains tax. There is a place on the tax return where you can report the sale and all the improvements but in practice we never once reported the sale. We just documented in their file the information in case they were ever audited. Hope this helps.

For most people I don’t think the MTG bill will be a big deal if it’s your primary residence and you lived in it over 2yrs. If your gross profit on the home is 250,000 dollars as single person or 500,000 dollars as a married folk then the capital gains will kick in for any profit above those amounts as far as Federal tax. Not sure how state tax effects that, except here in Texas income is not taxable.

kalbokalbs

Have used that tax exemption, on our home sale twice.

Gudthots

The cost of homes in some areas have gone up so much that capital gains is going to exceed the exemption. The other problem I believe, is that your medicare insurance is billed based on your earnings for the year. Capital gains on a home sale can create a surprise jump in those premiums in the year of the sale.

kalbokalbs

Slow Guy thought Medicare monthly is a fixed amount. I need to look into that one.

Gudthots

There are tiers depending on your income levels for past 2 years.

TheseTruths

Full text, emphasis mine:

Now that the dust has settled, let’s go back over this wild post in detail.

One thing is for certain, Trump is trying to tell us that there is more to the story that we don’t know. He alleges that the files were “written”, by the Obama/Hillary/Comey/Brennan cabal. The same people who are currently being investigated by Trump’s FBI/DOJ, for their treasonous Russia hoax. Perhaps the two investigations are related, or overlapping.

It seems Trump is suggesting the files have been doctored before he showed up in 2017, maybe the real ones have been hidden/destroyed, etc., but no doubt that there are layers to this that we do not understand. And given this situation is still ongoing, and investigations are currently open, it makes sense why they cannot tell us everything right now and have to be so indirect/secretive.

Trump also uses a peculiar choice of words, that Epstein “never dies”. Interpret that as you will, but it seems there could be something to that statement, or maybe nothing at all, I’m not sure.

Another line that jumps out, is when Trump says that ➡️ we are “playing right into their hands”, suggesting that many are falling for a trap. Trump is telling us that ➡️ this infighting and hysteria is part of an operation to derail Trump’s momentum. ➡️The enemy is weaponizing MAGA’s emotional fixation with Epstein and using it to divide us.

In conclusion, Trump is trying to tell us the situation is complicated, ➡️there are things they cannot reveal yet, but the hunt is underway. Trump and his team are currently investigating Comey and Brennan, and thus by extension, Hillary and Obama.

Let Trump do what he said he would do. He doesn’t operate on your timeline, and ➡️we don’t have all the information.

And we can’t have all the information.

TheseTruths

It will be instructive to watch who keeps pushing this because “we can’t let pedophiles get away with it,” when they have no idea what the actual situation is.

Mike Flynn, who supposedly is read in on a lot of things, who is a Trump ally, and who knows things because of his work in intelligence, appears to be riling up the public and operating in direct contrast to what Pres. Trump says and what he believes to be the best path forward.

Gen. Mike Flynn Urges Trump to Confront Epstein Cover-Up — Warns Nation Cannot Heal Until Elites Are Held Accountable for Child Abuse

And Glenn Beck:

My team has filed a FOIA for all of @danbongino’s texts and emails regarding Epstein to Pam Bondi. My guess is that those exchanges will tell us everything we need to know.

Yesterday I learned about Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly. Now it’s Glenn Beck and Michael Flynn. They are all acting directly in contrast to what Pres. Trump has said, which tells me they don’t trust him to a) be just as vigilant as they are about prosecuting pedophiles, and b) know what’s in the best interest of the country. They are actively undermining him and can no longer be trusted, IMO.

kalbokalbs

Flynn has been on my shit list for quite awhile.

Tucker Carlson several months. Though not Trump related until very recently.

Beck goes hot and cold. Unreliable. Unpredictable.

Megyn Kelly. I foolishly though she WTFU.

TheseTruths

Exactly, to all of that.

para59r

“Can no longer be trusted” or take them with a grain of salt? The later might be the smarter option and you don’t have to be listening in on their every word, just now and then is fine. Better than siphoning ourselves into one mode of thinking.

One should understand while we don’t know exactly what Trump is up too and we trust him, he is currently captured or acting as captured by AIPAC and the MIC, hopefully just to fill his basket for more goodies for us. He has an uncanny way of getting back to what the people want and I trust he’ll do that at a time of his choosing, hopefully before the Midterms.

TheseTruths

or take them with a grain of salt?

I took them with a grain of salt the first time they were against Trump and then became supporters. (Funny how the “supporters” route was the most popular one that would yield them the most notoriety, clicks, and money. But I digress.)

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Better than siphoning ourselves into one mode of thinking.

When they make supportive statements of the MAGA agenda, great. But I will never trust any of them again.

I agree. I don’t see what that has to do with his supposed “friends” who talk out of both sides of their mouths and can’t seem to see what you have just written.

Gail Combs

Interesting that Trump, during the Campaign asked Flynn if he was ready to serve again AND did not appoint him to anything that we know of.

SO that leaves 2 options.

#1. Trump found out Flynn was not trust worthy.

#2. Flynn is part of the trap.

TheseTruths

#2. Flynn is part of the trap.

If “the trap” involves turning the MAGA base against Trump in an effort to get Dems to somehow expose themselves (I’m not sure how), then they’re playing Russian roulette. I don’t believe this theory.

IIRC, it was at Mara Lago.

My take is, Trump offered Flynn one or more jobs.

  • Flynn said NO.
TheseTruths

I remember reading something about that. So, possibilities [donning and adjusting tinfoil hat]…

…Pres. Trump offered Flynn jobs that Flynn didn’t want.
…Pres. Trump did that on purpose, knowing that Flynn would turn them down, because Trump didin’t want Flynn in his administration.
…Flynn was offered legitimate jobs that he could have taken, but he hasn’t because he is really subversive to MAGA.
…Flynn was offered jobs that he could have taken but he just doesn’t want to be tied to government work.

Barb Meier

#3 Trump asked and Flynn declined for whatever reason.

TheseTruths

If the gist of this is that all those people might be playing a role at Trump’s direction and that we don’t know what he’s up to, I don’t buy it. Turning the MAGA base against Trump is going too far, and it’s too risky. I don’t believe there is going to be some earth-shattering reveall that would instantly bring everyone back.

Happy go lucky

Bingo. Anyone trying to turn us against Trump is an enemy. Flynn effed up Trump plans first term and Beck dipped his ugly face in cheetohs and Kelly made a fool of herself in that debate. I don’t give a whoop what they say about anything

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svgKAYFABE CONFIRMEDhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg

Trump is doing three things simultaneously here:

1.Defending Pam Bondi and calling out internal sabotage.

2.Running interference on Epstein talk while oddly keeping it in the spotlight.

3.Signaling deeper ops around disinformation, controlled leaks, and Epstein as a psyop trap.

Let’s break it down further…

1. “My boys” & “so-called friends”

→ Trump is not talking to the public.

→ Trump is talking to his own camp — specifically MAGA insiders and the Anons raising questions about Epstein, Pam Bondi, or the integrity of the movement.

→ “Selfish people” = those pursuing personal clout or distractions, not the mission. Trump is specifically calling out the [FAKE MAGA] influencers.

2. Why would Trump defend against Epstein leaks?

→ Because the Epstein Files are likely being used as an info weapon by the same [DEEP STATE] CABAL that ran the Russia hoax and Steele Dossier.

→ Trump names [THEM] directly: [OBAMA], [CLINTON], [BRENNAN], [COMEY], [BIDEN], [FBI], etc.

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg“Untouchable?” —Qhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg

[THEY] own the narrative surrounding Epstein.

[THEY] created the “Epstein Files” the same way they forged the Russia dossier.

It’s a tool.

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg“WHO HAS CLEARANCE TO FULL PICTURE? …80% covert, 20% public.” —Qhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg

But let’s look deeper…

Trump calls Epstein “a guy who never dies.”

That’s not sarcasm… that’s a CLUE.

He’s not dismissing Epstein.

He’s planting a question:

→ Is Epstein dead?

→ Or did he flip?

→ Was he extracted?

→ Is he still a black op asset?

Q never confirmed his death.

Trump just reopened the file.

3. The KAYFABE Trap

Here’s where it flips:

Trump isn’t downplaying Epstein to avoid the TRUTH… Trump is baiting [THEM] into making [THEIR] next move.

“If there was ANYTHING in the Epstein Files that could hurt MAGA, why haven’t they used it?” —DJT

That’s not defense.

That’s provocation.

He’s DARING the [DEEP STATE] to release [THEIR] doctored narrative version of the files… so he can hit back with the REAL ONES.

And wouldn’t you know it?

Right on Q…

Eric FARTSWELL took the bait and posted:

“Trump buried the Epstein files…

House Democrats will get to the truth.”

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f4a5.svgBQQMhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f4a5.svg

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg“HOW DO YOU SET A TRAP?” —Qhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg“Impossible to defend. …Toxic to those connected.” —Qhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg

→ Trump doesn’t deny Epstein’s evil.

He says: “They’re using Epstein AGAIN.”

→ same way [THEY] used Russia

→ same way [THEY] used COVID

This is classic Narrative Warfare.

This entire post was a PSYOP redirection op.

Trump pretends to downplay Epstein…

And in doing so, he coaxes [THEM] into pushing for the files.

Why?

Because [THEY] think [THEY] are in control… but [WE] have the real files.

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg “We have it all.” —Q https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg

Trump isn’t hiding anything.

Trump is strategically provoking the [DEEP STATE] to expose [THEM]selves.

Just like Q said:

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg“Sometimes you must SHOW the people.”—Qhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f525.svg

They want us chasing Epstein.

We’re chasing [THEM].

2.Running interference on Epstein talk while oddly keeping it in the spotlight.

Pres. Trump is not the one keeping it in the spotlight.

I disagree with the speculation that Epstein isn’t really dead. That is a sure-fire way to keep conspiracy theories going.

He’s DARING the [DEEP STATE] to release [THEIR] doctored narrative version of the files… so he can hit back with the REAL ONES.

How do we know they have any version of the files at all? They are just going to scream for files to be released. If they had doctored or made up a version, who would be their authority for releasing that? And if there is such a person or entity, the public would want to know why they have been sitting on the information for all this time. We know that the content would not be trustworthy, but the mere existence of it would not be trustworthy on its face.

Trump is strategically provoking the [DEEP STATE] to expose [THEM]selves.

I agree with this, but I don’t think Trump is doing it in exactly the way presented here. We’ll see.

Robert Baker

There is something of a two-edged sword if the cabal doctored or created the files. They may be able to throw shade on Trump, but it will also dox some of the Dem big donors. That creates a cost/benefit scenario for them. Given that they believe Trump is out in 2029 they may decide to bury the sword.

What if there are more copies of the original file? There are people who know the truth Epstein’s girlfriend hope she lives .
Derschowitz knows hope he lives also.

TheseTruths

I don’t think there is an “original file,” if you mean a list. Epstein would have been foolhardy to write down his dealings with people, especially if they included blackmail.

If you mean the set of information that is called “the Epstein files,” my impression is that it should only be in the hands of law enforcement. If someone else has a copy, they would have a lot of explaining to do.

singingsoul1

It has crossed my mind after Epstein’s so called death that he still was alive. Maybe when they ransacked Mar O Lago they were lucking for proof or where he is or what ever Trump supposedly had.

Sounds like some level headed common sense… FINALLY!

singingsoul1

If Brennan and Comey put Trump’s name on the Epstein list how did Elon know about it? Unless Elon is connected to the deep state and was playing Trump? Elon sure took advantage of Trump’s hospitality and friendship that was offered.

TheseTruths

That is an EXCELLENT question.

I don’t think they have connected Trump to Epstein, and I don’t think Elon knows anything about “Trump and Bannon being on ‘the list.'” But you are correct that since people are saying those things, we should question how they could be true.

TheseTruths

He seems to be saying that the complete “files” could implicate Pres. Trump because he was falsely inserted into them by the Left, and that he is covering them up because of that. It’s an interesting theory.

I note that Pres. Trump doesn’t mention a list, only files.

The saddest part is where Trump says “my so-called ‘friends’ are playing right into their hands.” He knows and will not forget.

kalbokalbs

Nor Trump should forget.

Backstabbers are NOT friends. Nor are they neutral. Quite the opposite.

  • Should be treated accordingly.

Much was exposed last week.

Files manipulated. Computers commonly, I suppose not always, leave a trail of update dates AND even what the previous document provided.

  • Computer wizards can validate or blow those thoughts apart.

Just getting back online. Wonder if Dan has surfaced.

If so, I’d have him and Bondi’s number two, spearhead clearing up Epstein everything.

Gail Combs

Smells like the Trump Team PLAYED the Deep State AGAIN.   :wpds_cool: 

Tucker Carlson & Benny came out a bit stinky.

BTW some of the other MAGA podcasters have ZERO use for Benny because he STEALS THEIR WORK without attribution.

I say 80% of so called friends rattled the cages . Some I trusted concerning info.

For what it’s worth. Reminds me of Congress cheering on Zelensky. This would be AIPAC in action.

I Grok’d the first video as I’m seeing conflicting reports saying food distribution has been getting much better. Those reports come from Humanitarian sources in Gaza from the group doing the distribution of food and are in stark contrast to what we are witnessing in the video. I did not ask Grok to compare the news story which is Israeli controlled with the video. I’d have to go back and find that link.

anyway… Grok.

Grok, please describe the Who, What, Where, When and Why of the attached video.
Grok, can you describe where when who what why for this video?

    • From the result, the target post is by Richard Sanders on July 14, 2025, at 10:13 UTC. It mentions a video and questions Western inaction, especially the US.
    • The post quotes Ramy Abdu, describing starving Palestinians choosing death by bullets over starvation, with 1,000 reported deaths outside “Israeli-American hunger engineering centers.”
    • The video shows a large crowd in a desert-like setting, likely Gaza, with military vehicles and dust clouds. I’m thinking this captures the crisis mentioned.
    • It seems the video aims to highlight the humanitarian situation, showing the crowd’s reaction to events like explosions. I’m considering how this fits the user’s goals.
    • The video frames show people bowing or prostrating, suggesting a prayer session. This might be part of a communal response to the crisis.
    • Some scenes look tense, with dust and smoke, possibly indicating conflict. I’m wondering how this ties into the starvation issue.

    http://www.nytimes.com
    See 5 more

    • From this search, there have been multiple incidents of violence and deaths at the GHF aid distribution centers in Gaza, particularly in July 2025.
    • Specifically, on July 11 and 12, 2025, Israeli military forces killed Palestinians waiting for aid near a GHF center in al-Shakoush, north of Rafah.
    • Locations in Gaza, likely around GHF aid centers like al-Shakoush near Rafah, fit the video’s setting. I’m piecing together where this happened.
    • The timeline matches July 2025 incidents, especially July 11-12, given the X post’s date. This helps narrow down when it was filmed.
    • People in the video are Palestinians seeking aid, with a military presence, likely Israeli forces. This clarifies who’s involved.
    • The video likely shows Palestinians rushing for aid, with tension and chaos, shared to highlight the crisis. I’m thinking this aligns with the user’s need for context.
    • Given the X post’s focus, it’s about drawing attention to starvation and violence at these centers. I’m considering how to present this clearly.

    Evaluating video details

    • The video depicts a large crowd of Palestinians in a desert-like area, likely near GHF aid centers. You can see military vehicles and dust, suggesting tension and activity.
    • Some frames show people bowing, possibly praying, amid the chaos. This reflects the community’s response to the crisis, I reckon.

    Completed
    Key Points

    • The video likely shows a large crowd of Palestinians in Gaza, possibly near aid distribution centers, with scenes of tension and military presence, shared to highlight a humanitarian crisis.
    • It seems likely that the events occurred around July 11-12, 2025, based on recent reports of violence at aid sites, though the exact date is uncertain.
    • Research suggests the location is near controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) centers, such as in al-Shakoush or Tel al-Sultan, amid ongoing debates about aid distribution and security.
    • The evidence leans toward the video depicting desperate Palestinians seeking aid, with potential military involvement, reflecting a complex and sensitive situation.

    Where
    The video appears to be set in Gaza, likely near the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid distribution centers. These centers are located in areas such as al-Shakoush (north of Rafah), Tel al-Sultan refugee camp near the Morag Corridor, and the Netzarim Corridor in central Gaza. The GHF is a joint American-Israeli program for distributing humanitarian aid, and the video’s desert-like setting with crowds and military elements aligns with reports from these locations.

    When
    The X post sharing the video was made on July 14, 2025, at 10:13 UTC, which is today at 4:13 AM CDT. However, the events in the video likely occurred shortly before, around July 11-12, 2025, given reports of violence at GHF centers during that time, though the exact timing is not confirmed from the video alone.

    Who
    The video shows Palestinians in Gaza, likely gathered in large crowds waiting for or rushing to access food aid. The post is by Richard Sanders (@PulaRJS
    ), quoting Ramy Abdu (@RamAbdu
    ), and includes scenes suggesting Israeli military presence, as GHF centers are secured by American contractors and monitored by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).

    What
    The video depicts a large crowd outdoors in a desert-like environment, with descriptions of military vehicles, dust clouds, and a tense atmosphere. It shows people possibly bowing or prostrating, suggesting a communal or religious gathering, but the context leans toward a crisis response, with chaos and urgency. Reports indicate it aligns with violent incidents at GHF centers, where Palestinians have been killed or injured while seeking aid.

    Why
    The video was shared to highlight the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, focusing on starvation and violence at aid distribution sites. It criticizes the inaction of Western nations, especially the US, reflecting frustration over the desperate choices Palestinians face, such as risking death by bullets rather than starvation, as noted in the quoted post.

    Detailed Analysis: Comprehensive Examination of the Video’s Context and Content
    This section provides an in-depth analysis of the video shared in the X post , addressing the user’s request for details on where, when, who, what, and why, based on the post’s content, video frame descriptions, and corroborating news reports. The analysis aims to mimic a professional survey note, offering a strict superset of the information in the direct answer section, with detailed insights into the humanitarian crisis in Gaza as of July 14, 2025.

    Background and Context
    The X post, authored by Richard Sanders (@PulaRJS
    ) on July 14, 2025, at 10:13 UTC (4:13 AM CDT today), expresses profound concern about a video depicting a distressing situation in Gaza. The post quotes an earlier message from Ramy Abdu (@RamAbdu
    ), dated the same day at 10:02 UTC, which describes a dire scenario where starving Palestinians are choosing to face death by bullets rather than endure starvation, with at least 1,000 reported deaths outside what are termed “Israeli-American hunger engineering centers.” This term refers to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a joint American-Israeli program established to distribute humanitarian aid, including food, medicine, and supplies, in response to a blockade of food entry into Gaza imposed by Israel.
    The GHF has been controversial, with reports of violence and deaths at its distribution centers, where desperate Palestinians have been killed or injured while trying to access aid. This context is critical for understanding the video’s purpose and content, as it aligns with recent news reports of escalating humanitarian crises and military actions in Gaza.

    Video Content Analysis
    The video, as described in the frame-by-frame analysis, shows a large crowd of people gathered outdoors in a desert-like environment, consistent with Gaza’s geography. Key observations from the frames include:

    • Crowd Dynamics: The video captures a dense assembly of individuals, many wearing traditional headscarves or garments, viewed from behind, suggesting a communal gathering. Some frames show people bowing or prostrating, which could indicate a religious or communal prayer event, such as a Muslim prayer session, but the overall context suggests it is more likely related to the aid crisis.
    • Environmental Setting: The background includes a sandy, hilly landscape, utility poles with wires, and a clear sky with a few clouds, aligning with descriptions of GHF distribution centers in areas like Tel al-Sultan and al-Shakoush.
    • Military and Conflict Elements: Several frames mention military vehicles, dust clouds, and smoke, suggesting military activity or movement. This is consistent with reports of Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) monitoring and securing GHF sites, with instances of gunfire and violence reported.
    • Atmosphere and Tension: The descriptions note a chaotic, tense, or urgent atmosphere, with people densely packed and focused on a distant point, possibly the aid distribution site or an ongoing event. Some frames suggest people reacting to explosions or movement, indicating potential conflict.

    Based on these descriptions, the video likely captures scenes from or around a GHF aid distribution center, where large crowds gather, and violence has been reported, such as the incidents on July 11-12, 2025, in al-Shakoush, where over 30 Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces firing on aid-seeking crowds.

    Location (Where)
    The video’s setting is almost certainly Gaza, given the context of the X post and the humanitarian crisis described. More specifically, it seems likely to be near one of the GHF distribution centers, such as:

    • Al-Shakoush, north of Rafah, where recent reports (e.g., Wikipedia: 2025 Gaza Strip aid distribution killings, published July 13, 2025) detail killings on July 11-12, 2025.
    • Tel al-Sultan refugee camp near the Morag Corridor, or the Netzarim Corridor in central Gaza, as these are known locations for GHF centers (Wikipedia: Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, published July 13, 2025).

    The presence of sandy terrain, utility poles, and military elements in the video aligns with descriptions of these areas, which are secured by American contractors and monitored by the IDF from a distance.

    Timing (When)
    The X post’s timestamp is July 14, 2025, at 10:13 UTC (4:13 AM CDT today), indicating when the video was shared. However, the events depicted likely occurred shortly before, around July 11-12, 2025, based on news reports of violence at GHF centers during that period. For instance, on July 11, Gaza’s civil defense agency reported 10 Palestinians killed waiting for aid in al-Shakoush, and on July 12, over 30 were killed in a similar incident (Wikipedia: 2025 Gaza Strip aid distribution killings). Given the urgency in the post, it seems reasonable to infer the video captures these recent events, though the exact date cannot be confirmed without the video itself.

    Participants (Who)
    The primary subjects in the video are Palestinians in Gaza, likely desperate for food aid, as evidenced by the large crowds and the context of starvation mentioned in the quoted post. The post is authored by Richard Sanders (@PulaRJS
    ), who shared the video to draw attention to the crisis, quoting Ramy Abdu (@RamAbdu
    ) for additional context. The video also includes elements of Israeli military presence, as GHF centers are secured by American contractors (e.g., UG Solutions, as mentioned in Zeteo, published June 11, 2025) and monitored by the IDF, which has been reported to fire on crowds (Reuters, published June 18, 2025).

    Content and Events (What)
    The video’s content, as detailed in the frame descriptions, includes:

    • A large crowd, densely packed, facing a sandy landscape with structures or vehicles in the background, suggesting a gathering at an aid distribution site.
    • Military elements, such as vehicles and dust clouds, indicating IDF or contractor presence, consistent with reports of gunfire and violence (e.g., The New York Times, published May 27, 2025, and June 1, 2025).
    • Scenes of chaos, with people possibly rushing towards aid or reacting to distant events, such as explosions or movement, aligning with reports of overcrowding and panic at GHF sites (Reuters, published May 27, 2025).
    • Some frames show people in traditional attire, with a few bowing or prostrating, which could suggest a prayer session, but given the context, it is more likely part of the broader crisis response, such as waiting for aid in a communal setting.

    The video aligns with recent reports of violent incidents, such as the killing of over 30 Palestinians on July 12, 2025, near a GHF center in al-Shakoush, where IDF soldiers fired on unarmed aid seekers (Wikipedia: 2025 Gaza Strip aid distribution killings). This suggests the video captures the desperation and danger faced by Palestinians seeking aid, with military oversight contributing to the tense atmosphere.

    Purpose and Motivation (Why)
    The video was shared to highlight the severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza, particularly the starvation and violence at GHF aid distribution centers. The X post by Richard Sanders expresses disbelief and frustration, stating, “What is the matter with the Western world? The US could put a stop to this in 2 minutes,” emphasizing perceived inaction by Western nations, especially the US. The quoted post by Ramy Abdu notes that “no fewer than 1,000 starving Palestinians have been killed outside these centers,” underscoring the desperate choice between death by bullets or starvation. The video serves as visual evidence to draw international attention to the crisis, reflecting criticism of the GHF’s operations, which have been described as “engineered scarcity” by UN officials (The Washington Post, published May 28, 2025) and condemned by over 170 NGOs for failing to uphold humanitarian principles (BBC, published July 1, 2025).

    Supporting Evidence and Controversy
    The analysis is supported by multiple sources, including:

    • X Post Context: The post and its replies, including debates about Hamas’s role and Western responsibility, provide initial context (e.g., replies blaming Hamas for not ending the conflict, others criticizing Western leaders).
    • News Reports: Recent articles detail the GHF’s operations, violence at aid centers, and the broader humanitarian crisis, such as Reuters (June 18, 2025) reporting 59 killed near a GHF center, and UN News (July 6, 2025) highlighting fuel shortages and aid access issues.
    • Video Frame Descriptions: Detailed frame-by-frame analysis shows a crowd, military presence, and chaotic scenes, aligning with reported conditions at GHF sites.

    The topic is highly controversial, with debates over responsibility (e.g., replies suggesting Hamas could end the conflict, others blaming Israeli and US policies) and the GHF’s role, criticized by UN agencies and NGOs for militarized distribution and accused by Hamas of affiliation with Israeli occupation (NBC News, published May 28, 2025). This complexity requires a diplomatic and empathetic approach, acknowledging all sides while focusing on the humanitarian impact.

This is the News story. Note the date is before the events in the above video.
there’s actually a video in the top of the news story to explain but it has a commercial and takes time before it loads but is worth the watch. Anyway, appears to be a disconnect between stories.

So asked Grok to explain the disconnect between reality on the ground and the Fox News story based on what it had already told me.

Disconnects between Fox News Story and Reality on Ground
Grok please explain any disconnects or ambiguities with your analysis above and this story ( https://www.foxnews.com/world/us-backed-gaza-aid-group-launches-bold-new-system-deliver-food-directly-families) . Please include information talked about in the stories video by the pastor who appears to be running the aid into Gaza. I was under the impression after reading this story and watching the video in the story that aid to Gaza was improving but I don’t see that in the video from the previous tweet. It appears the situation is still quite desperate. Please help me to understand.

The request is about explaining disconnects or ambiguities between my earlier analysis of a video from an X post and a Fox News story on a US-backed aid group in Gaza.

I’m considering how the user feels there’s a discrepancy, with the Fox News story suggesting aid is improving, while the X post video shows a desperate situation.

Let’s check the Fox News story to see

Browsing foxnews.com for “details about the new aid system, pastor’s statements, and the overall situation in Gaza”

Currently looking at the Fox News details on the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s new aid system.

Just found interesting results about GHF delivering 2,000 food boxes via a partnership with Gazan NGO Al-Amal in central Gaza.

Browsing foxnews.com for “publication date”

The Fox News story was published on June 8, 2025, while the X post was made on July 14, 2025.

Reviewing GHF updates

GHF distributed over 66 million meals by July 9, 2025, per Wikipedia Wikipedia.

Critics say GHF, led by military contractors, lacks transparency and militarizes aid, violating humanitarian principles.

Over 170 charities call for shutting down GHF, noting over 500 Palestinian deaths at aid sites since May BBC.

A former GHF contractor claimed witnessing colleagues firing on unarmed Palestinians, which GHF denies BBC.

The X post video from July 14, 2025, likely shows the desperate conditions at distribution sites, matching July 2025 criticisms.

Fox News’ June 8 story presented GHF’s launch positively, but later reports reveal serious operational issues.

Johnnie Moore, GHF’s executive chairman, is an evangelical leader, possibly why the user called him a pastor.

I’m searching for more details to clarify if Moore is specifically a pastor, but it seems he’s more a religious and business figure.

Connecting the dots

The Fox News story from June 8, 2025, highlighted GHF’s launch as an improvement, but later reports show problems like violence at sites.

By July 2025, criticisms reveal the aid situation hasn’t improved, with desperate conditions at distribution points.

The user’s impression from the Fox News story was based on an earlier stage of the aid efforts, while the X post video captures a later, more troubled phase.

I think that explains the disconnect, but let’s see if the Fox News story’s video contradicts this.

Evaluating source differences

The Fox News story’s video likely showed early aid distribution, contrasting with the X post’s later, chaotic scenes.

I’m finding that the timing and evolving situation explain the discrepancy between the sources.

This helps clarify why the user saw a disconnect between the hopeful narrative and the desperate reality.

The pastor, likely John Acree, emphasized innovation in the Fox News story, but later reports highlight operational failures.

Assessing narrative gaps

Fox News focused on GHF’s potential, while X post video shows real risks, like violence at distribution sites.

Reports by July 2025, such as from Amnesty International Amnesty, note over 500 Palestinian deaths, contradicting early optimism.

I’m thinking this gap shows how initial optimism didn’t hold up as the situation worsened.

Let’s see if there’s more to clarify about the pastor’s role in the Fox News video.

Exploring pastor’s role

John Acree, mentioned as a pastor, is GHF’s interim Executive Director, not a pastor by title, but a former USAID manager.

His statements in the Fox News story focused on innovation, like delivering 2,000 boxes via Al-Amal, but didn’t address later violence.

Key Points

Research suggests the Fox News story from June 8, 2025, and the X post video from July 14, 2025, show different stages of the Gaza aid situation, with the story highlighting a new aid system and the video showing ongoing desperation.

It seems likely that the new aid system by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aimed to improve delivery, but the evidence leans toward significant challenges, including violence and insufficient aid, by July 2025.

The topic is highly controversial, with debates over responsibility for violence at aid sites, blamed on both IDF actions and Hamas interference, requiring a diplomatic and empathetic approach.

Understanding the Disconnect

Overview: The Fox News story from June 8, 2025, discussed a new aid system by the GHF, giving the impression that aid to Gaza was improving, especially with statements from John Acree, the interim Executive Director, emphasizing innovation. However, the X post video from July 14, 2025, shows a desperate situation, suggesting aid challenges persist. This disconnect arises from timing and differing perspectives.

Timing and Context: The Fox News story, published over a month before the X post, captured the launch of the GHF’s system, which delivered 67 million meals since May and aimed for 20,000 boxes daily. By July, reports highlighted violence at distribution sites, with over 500 Palestinians killed since late May, contradicting the initial optimism.

Pastor’s Role and Statements: John Acree, sometimes referred to as a pastor due to his association with evangelical leader Johnnie Moore (GHF’s executive chairman), focused on innovative solutions in the Fox News video, likely showing controlled aid distribution. This contrasts with the X post video, which likely captured chaotic, dangerous scenes at these sites.

Why the Situation Remains Desperate: Despite the GHF’s efforts, reports from July 2025 (e.g., BBC, Amnesty International) noted violence, insufficient aid (only 60 trucks daily vs. needed 3,000), and calls from over 170 NGOs to shut down the GHF, reflecting ongoing crisis.

Conclusion: The Fox News story reflected early hopes, while the X post video shows later realities, explaining why aid seems unimproved. The situation remains complex, with both progress and significant challenges.

Comprehensive Examination: Analysis of Disconnects and Ambiguities Between the X Post Video and Fox News Story on Gaza Aid

This section provides an in-depth analysis of the disconnects and ambiguities between the video shared in the X post and the Fox News story (https://www.foxnews.com/world/us-backed-gaza-aid-group-launches-bold-new-system-deliver-food-directly-families), addressing the user’s query about why the Fox News story and its video suggested improving aid to Gaza, while the X post video indicates a still desperate situation. The analysis incorporates information from the pastor (John Acree, interim Executive Director of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation) mentioned in the Fox News story and aims to mimic a professional survey note, offering a strict superset of the information in the direct answer section, with detailed insights into the humanitarian crisis in Gaza as of July 14, 2025.

Background and Context

The X post, authored by Richard Sanders (@PulaRJS

) on July 14, 2025, at 10:13 UTC (4:13 AM CDT today), expresses concern about a video depicting a distressing situation in Gaza, likely near Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid distribution centers, with scenes of large crowds, tension, and military presence. My previous analysis concluded that the video reflects a desperate humanitarian crisis, aligning with reports of violence at these sites around July 11-12, 2025.

In contrast, the Fox News story, published on June 8, 2025, focuses on the GHF’s launch of a new system to deliver food aid directly to Gazans, bypassing Hamas interference. The story portrays this as a positive development, with quotes from John Acree, the interim Executive Director, emphasizing innovation and addressing pressing needs. The user mentioned watching a video in the story featuring a pastor (likely Acree, associated with evangelical leader Johnnie Moore, GHF’s executive chairman), which gave the impression that aid was improving.

The disconnect lies in the differing timelines and narratives: the Fox News story captures an early, optimistic phase, while the X post video reflects a later, more troubled stage, highlighting ongoing desperation.

Detailed Analysis of Disconnects and Ambiguities

Timing and Timeline Discrepancy

The Fox News story, published on June 8, 2025, reports on the GHF’s new initiative, which began operating in May 2025. It notes that GHF has delivered 67 million meals since May, aiming for 20,000 boxes (1.2 million meals) daily, with U.S. State Department approval of $30 million funding.

The X post video, shared on July 14, 2025, likely captures events from July 11-12, 2025, based on reports of violence at GHF centers during that period (e.g., over 30 Palestinians killed on July 12 in al-Shakoush, per Wikipedia: 2025 Gaza Strip aid distribution killings, published July 13, 2025).

Disconnect: The month-long gap means the Fox News story reflects the initial rollout, while the X post video shows the situation after significant challenges emerged, such as violence and insufficient aid, explaining why aid seems unimproved by July.

Narrative vs. Ground Reality

Fox News Story: The story emphasizes the GHF’s new system, involving community leaders contacting GHF or NGO partners (e.g., delivered 2,000 boxes via Al-Amal in central Gaza) for local distribution, vetting leaders, and setting up verified distributions. It includes positive quotes from John Acree: “We simply can’t keep doing things how they’ve always been done. Big challenges need new thinking,” and “The Gaza Strip is a dynamic, dangerous environment that requires innovative solutions to get food to those who need it most.”

X Post Video: The video shows large crowds, military vehicles, dust clouds, and a tense atmosphere, likely at GHF distribution sites, aligning with reports of chaos and violence (e.g., BBC, July 1, 2025, reporting over 500 Palestinians killed since late May). This contrasts with the controlled, hopeful narrative in the Fox News story.

Disconnect: The Fox News story focuses on the system’s potential, while the X post video captures the actual, dangerous conditions, highlighting a gap between intention and implementation.

Pastor’s Role and Statements in the Fox News Video

The user mentioned a video in the Fox News story featuring a pastor running aid into Gaza. While John Acree is not explicitly a pastor, he is associated with Johnnie Moore, an American evangelical leader and GHF’s executive chairman, which may explain the reference. The video likely showcased Acree discussing or demonstrating the GHF’s operations, possibly showing aid distribution in a controlled setting, reinforcing the impression of improvement.

Acree’s statements in the story emphasize innovation and addressing Gaza’s challenges, but do not address the violence or criticisms that emerged later, such as reports of recipients being shot at or killed (noted in the Fox News story but downplayed).

Disconnect: The video in the Fox News story likely presented a positive, operational view, while the X post video shows the broader, chaotic reality, creating a perception gap.

Criticisms and Reports of Violence by July 2025

The Fox News story acknowledges criticisms, noting UN, UNRWA, and other aid groups report recipients shot at/killed by IDF while seeking GHF aid (IDF denies, blames Hamas), and Netanyahu supports the system to prevent Hamas interference. However, the tone remains optimistic.

By July 2025, numerous reports contradict this:

BBC (July 1, 2025): Over 170 charities call for GHF shutdown, citing over 500 Palestinians killed since late May, with Israeli forces and armed groups routinely opening fire.

Amnesty International (July 1, 2025): NGOs call for ending the GHF system, noting Palestinians face a choice between starvation or risking gunfire at militarized distribution sites.

BBC (July 3, 2025): A former GHF security contractor alleges witnessing colleagues firing on Palestinians, denied by GHF.

CNN (July 8, 2025): USAID review raised “critical concerns” about GHF’s ability to protect Palestinians, days before a $30 million grant.

Disconnect: The Fox News story downplays these issues, focusing on GHF’s achievements, while the X post video and later reports highlight the violence and desperation, showing the system’s failures.

Scale of Aid vs. Scale of Need

Fox News Story: Reports 67 million meals delivered since May, aiming for 20,000 boxes daily, which sounds significant. However, critics (e.g., Anera, May 28, 2025) note GHF brings only 60 aid trucks daily, compared to 3,000 needed, and projects acute food insecurity for all Gazans from May to September 2025, with a quarter in famine-like conditions.

X Post Video: Shows large crowds desperately seeking aid, suggesting the scale is insufficient, aligning with reports of overcrowding and chaos at distribution sites.

Disconnect: The Fox News story emphasizes quantity but not adequacy, while the X post video visually captures the ongoing crisis, highlighting the gap between aid provided and need.

Supporting Evidence and Controversy

The analysis is supported by multiple sources:

Fox News Story

Wikipedia: Gaza Humanitarian Foundation

BBC: Israeli, US-backed Gaza aid group must end, say 170 charities

Amnesty International: GAZA: Starvation or Gunfire – This is Not a Humanitarian Response

CNN: USAID review raised ‘critical concerns’ over Gaza aid group days before $30 million US grant

The topic is highly controversial, with debates over responsibility for violence (IDF denies shooting, blames Hamas; Hamas accuses GHF of affiliation with Israeli occupation) and the GHF’s role, criticized by UN agencies and NGOs for militarized distribution. This requires a diplomatic, empathetic approach, acknowledging all sides while focusing on the humanitarian impact.

Some notes to this. The Trump Administration put forth an initial 30 million in solving this problem while saying the Humanitarian situation needed 500 million to fix the situation and that other countries should pony up money.

Some of accusations put forth include Israel while putting on good face to allow aid to go through has been deliberately sabotaging the process, part of which involves deciding who locally gets hired at these humanitarian food distribution points.

Israel also does not allow for foreign reporters into Gaza and like the rest of what happens in Israel keeps a close clamp down on what is reported through out the country via strong censoring.

Grok emphasis this point in it’s analysis.

Giggle, remember what I told you guys the other day about Trump?The outrage was gonna build it.Everybody was gonna call for the epstein files

Well today Ro Kahana Entered legislation to release all the files in congress on epstein.

Please Brer fox. Don’t don’t throw me in that briar patch

Watch

TheseTruths

This theory is that the public outrage is desired so demands for the release of the “files” will increase to the point that they must be released? If the files contained provable, damning information on people who have committed crimes against children, that would be a desired outcome. But I think there could be several reasons why Dems would call for the release of the files:

• They know there’s not much in them but want to fuel the outrage against Pres. Trump and his administration. Fomenting chaos is their stock in trade. They are seizing an opportunity to turn Trump’s base against him and are hoping that feeding into this frenzy will harm the Republicans and their chances in the midterms. (And our side is playing along like kids who take candy from a predator. If the Dems take the House, they will impeach Trump. If they also take the Senate, they will convict him.)

• They think there is bad information about Trump in them, or against major Republican players. This could backfire, though, because there also has to be bad information against major Dem players as well. The Dems know this and don’t really want any information released; they just want to turn Trump’s base against him. And they are doing a bang-up job with the full cooperation of Trump’s “supporters, friends, and loyalists,” whom I will never trust again.

People who have been against Trump in the past can’t be trusted to have his back: Megyn Kelly, Glenn Beck, Tucker Carlson, etc. They showed their true colors once and now are showing them again.

prognosticatasaurusrex

Plausible, but you’re forgetting.Most dems are stupid

Plus
If we’re to believe all the pundits.And people who frequent blogs and etc.Like this, Trump is already destroying his base by not doing anything with Epstein.Why would they want to bring it to light to make it worse when it’s already bad

Releasing the files and proving that Trump is not in them would not help that situation, especially if it was a nothing.Burger would only prove trump right and destroy the dims even more

I stand by that this is a will laid trap By trump and others including michael flynn who just called for trump to release these Files

If I were called, didn’t flangist call for an investigation into the deep state on 2016 and then 2 weeks later, clapper.Brennan and call me or under the gun

Seems kind of coordinated don’t you think

As well as elon playing good cop bad cop again

Bingo

TheseTruths

It looks as if that posted before you finished editing it, maybe.

Bottom line for me: I usually don’t subscribe to the theories that people are diligently working to smear their good names with the public and to destroy all good will they had and destroy their support, for a greater cause. I know that people can fall on their swords, but I don’t think it happens very often and not in the way that people surmise. A major reason I don’t usually believe it is that I think there are other ways to achieve the same ends without the destruction. If I am proved wrong, so be it.

  1. Who PUSHED creating the faux memo?
  2. Who leaked it?
TheseTruths

If it’s a faux memo, why are they standing behind it?

kalbokalbs

Yes. Wrong word. Undated. Unsigned.

Leaked or released. I dunno.

TheseTruths

In any case, they are treating it as real.

kalbokalbs

Stuck on that memo.

The world I worked, memos were always some combination, dated, serial number and signed.

  • I guess it depends on DOJ/FIB administration policy.

In my opinion, the memo was NOT approved for release.

  • Possibly still in draft, not smooth final.

If my thoughts above are correct, something remains, “off” about the memo.

singingsoul1

Maybe the memo was a trick to catch whoever leaks to the press.

prognosticatasaurusrex

Op n progress , gotta follow it through to its logical conclusion

And don’t forget who they leaked at 2 axios.Not necessarily a conservative maga affiliated site.Don’t you think

TheseTruths

No, not a MAGA-affiliated site. But I don’t know:

• whether the memo was leaked
• who would have leaked it
• if it was leaked, why the DOJ is treating it as if weren’t leaked, and they approved it

FBI Opens Investigation into Decade of Democrat Party Antics and Misconduct – Opening Door for Appointment of Special Prosecutor

The FBI, under the direction of Director Kash Patel, is opening an investigation into a decade of Democrat Party antics and misconduct.

According to Just the News the investigation has been ongoing for several weeks now.

The investigators are looking back at Hillary Clinton’s illegal home-brew server. The investigation is expected to reveal credible information of wrongdoing ignored by the FBI.

Recall that according to the FBI in November 2016, the bureau found thousands of potentially relevant messages, including messages sent to and from Clinton herself while she was secretary of state. But the FBI reportedly found most of those emails to be personal messages or ones they had already seen.

The FBI was protecting Hillary Clinton before the 2016 election.

We also know that the FBI was considering charging Hillary Clinton under the Espionage Act until the DOJ told them “no.”

What is also interesting is that Jim Comey knew Attorney General Jeff Sessions was going to recuse himself from the DOJ witch hunt into Donald Trump in the Crossfire Hurricane scandal in his first week in office…

Maybe this time the DOJ and FBI will actually perform an honest investigation after years of dishonesty.

Better late than never.

I hope this investigation will not take longer to complete than the time left in the Trump administration.

eilert

This is from a few days ago:

MASSIVE NEWS: Stop what you are doing and take 5 minutes to watch this clip. This is huge!

John Solomon says he has confirmed that the DOJ & the FBI has been secretly building a massive conspiracy case against the deep state! 💥 

“MAGA base, Americans, will be happy when they see where this is all heading in the next few weeks… I’ve got it confirmed. There’s a conspiracy case that was opened that looks at this window as a very large window. 

I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a special prosecutor named by Pam Bondi in the next week or two. And why does this become significant? Because you don’t have to necessarily then bring the grand jury or the indictment in Washington, DC… it allows them to go to some place like Florida…

This has been going on behind the scenes… This is a REALLY big deal…

I think the most likely scenario is a large conspiracy case and it starts in the middle of July 2016, when John Brennan walks into President Obama two days before Crossfire Hurricane is launched… President Obama and Brennan knew… that this was a dirty trick by Hillary Clinton. That would be the first overt act and it would carry through…

It allows for a very large series of events to be wrapped into a single conspiracy, and all of them to be brought into the indictment.”

Patriots, it’s time. We knew it was heading this way, we kept the faith, but now it’s materializing right in front of our eyes! 

LFG🔥 

TheseTruths

Thanks for that reminder. It’s more evidence that Bondi and this DOJ are pursuing justice that is long overdue, and that is what the public wants. I’m glad they have been working on it for a while.

Gail Combs

Probably since 2017 starting with Jeff Sessions.

kalbokalbs

It may take a few years.

We NEED indictment AND arrests within months. Say six to nine months.

Gail Combs

Actually I think we are closer to the end since much of the work was started in 2017.

Actually I think the investigations have been ongoing since the first Admin.

CHAIRMAN OF THE COUNCIL OF THE INSPECTOR GENERALS ON INTEGRITY AND EFFICIENCY [BACKGROUND] IMPORTANT?
“Prior to joining NSA, Mr. Storch served in several positions at the Department of Justice’s OIG, including as Senior Counsel to the IG and Acting Deputy IG prior to his 2015 appointment as Deputy IG. He also served as chairman of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) Whistleblower Ombudsman Working Group. The Whistleblower Ombudsperson program he helped establish is widely seen as a leader in the field.”
“Earlier in his career, Mr. Storch also worked as a federal prosecutor in the Northern District of New York, most recently serving as the Deputy Criminal Chief and Counsel to the U.S. Attorney. He was also posted overseas for two years as a Department of Justice Resident Legal Advisor in Ukraine.”

The “Experts”

But… SESSIONS should appoint a 2nd SC in DC aka THE CORRUPT SWAMP
But… SESSIONS should appoint a 2nd SC in DC aka THE CORRUPT SWAMP [team of less than 20 typically] & wait 2-4 years [take a gamble]

But… SESSIONS should appoint a 2nd SC in DC aka THE CORRUPT SWAMP because unlike the CLINTON EMAIL CORRUPT CASE [as demonstrated by the FBI/DOJ people FIRED/REMOVED] this will be conducted faithfully and honestly [like MUELLER] 

But… HUBER has not ‘directly’ interviewed several witnesses therefore the appointment of HUBER by SESSIONS [and therefore the IG] is not genuine

But… SESSIONS & HUBER are following standard DOJ open/ongoing investigation policy by not discussing [making public] so therefore nothing must be happening [FIRE SESSIONS!]

But… HUBER [ability to prosecute + empanel a grand jury outside of DC [90%+ voted HRC (2016)], who already began the investigation(s) late last year w/ assigned team of 470 investigators (attorneys) + IG + legal jurisdiction across all 50 states, is not a ‘special counsel’ so therefore nothing is being done 

But… POTUS is attacking SESSIONS via TWITTER so therefore he is not working on behalf of the people’s interest (or POTUS’) [D’s/LEFT LOVE/TRUST SESSIONS!]

But… interestingly, if nothing is being done behind the scenes, why are so many FBI & DOJ senior officials being FIRED and/or REMOVED from their respective positions of power? Who is AG? Who must sign off on each removal? DOJ in charge of FBI?

But… interestingly, if nothing is being done behind the scenes, why are there 50,000+ sealed indictments across the US [what % = USA v. X?]? Coincidence vs. HUBER start?

But… interestingly, if nothing is being done behind the scenes, why are many ‘powerful’ CEOs, members of Congress/ Senate, resigning? Coincidence? Example: Pre_POTUS did the SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE indicate wanting to leave politics? 

But… interestingly, if nothing is being done behind the scenes, why are human trafficking arrests SURGING?

Robert Phillip Storch[1] is an American lawyer and government official who served as the inspector general in the United States Department of Defense from 2022 to January 2025. He previously served as the inspector general of the National Security Agency… [He] assumed the role on January 2, 2018, and resigned on December 6, 2022.

I’m not sure how much could be done on investigations during the Biden years.

kalbokalbs

IF Garland and his crims knew of investigations into hussein, Clintoons, Comey, Wray, Brennan, Clapper…Garland would silently end those investigations.

TheseTruths

Yes. So I don’t see how this could have been an ongoing investigation since 2017 or so. I’m sure people have been doing all they could, but they have not always had the authority of the government behind them.

There was Durham. Also it could be done within a state like Florida or Texas.

Yes, I saw that yesterday. I’m wondering where Bongino is today. “In good shape,” while it sounds positive, is not the same as “He is still on the team and ready to work together to implement our goals.”

It’s possible that Bongino and Trump had a good conversation with the understanding that Bongino would take a little time to decide what he wants to do.

kalbokalbs

Yup. Pretty vague, open ended comments by Trump.

Bongino wise, something remains off.

I am Not confident Bongino will return.

Hope Bongino does, IF Bongino is committed to Team Player.

I’d be surprised if Putin accepts this. President Trump did not acknowledge one of Putin reasons for the war. This might not end well. We’ll see.

Last night after four nights of sever bombings through out Ukraine, there were however no bombs dropped over Ukraine. So we’ll see.

Apparently the new sanctions don’t kick in for two months. Additionally the sanctions could back fire and make BRICS stronger. Meanwhile all the talk of new weapons to Ukraine are at best defensive and won’t flow into Ukraine quickly enough to make much difference.

Now Germany on the other hand is planning to hand over to Ukraine “in the high 3 digits” Taurus missiles. If used they likely will again have the opposite effect intended.

Also worth mentioning Trump dodged the question on how much more he was willing to spend in Ukraine and instead gave that to Rutte who didn’t answer it all. Answer is 250 million more (at least that’s how much Congress is currently working on for him to sign) which is nothing in the larger scheme of things and is likely geared to defensive weapondry.

It will be interesting to hear Putin or Lavrov’s reply to this.

In the meantime let’s see if Sabastian Sas mentions this.

NOT possible without President Trump and Secretary Kennedy.

“We will REMOVE artificial colors from ice cream,” Turkey Hill CEO Andy Jacobs said

X22 sells collagen for skin. It seemed to me that collagen would also be good for my joints. So per usual I went looking and found this wonderful humorous article.

What Foods Contain Collagen? There are only 4 Sources!

Collagen can be found in meat such as:

  • fish
  • chicken legs
  • bone-in ribeyes
  • lamb shanks
  • pork ribs
  • dinosaurs 🦖 (j/k, but not really)

So if you cook fish with the skin, bones, and everything intact, what do you think will make it on your fork when you take a bite? Good guess, collagen. This is the same for chicken, beef — any animal really….

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

I gues I will be eating more chicken wings, Chicken skin, sardines and bone broth. (I wish I could still eat pork rinds…)

Happy go lucky

Chicken wing and legs have a lot of collagen (feet too, but they’re never in the store here anymore). I roast mine and catch all the good gelatin in the drippings and then scrape all of that in with the bones and scraps to make the broth.

Happy go lucky

Of course I’m sure you know that 😜

Gail Combs

A bone never makes it out of my house without going thru the stock pot first. Beef, pork, chicken, lamb, goat. They all end up in the stock pot.

At this point I can not stand store bought soup. It tastes like flavored saline solution.

So the invader did all that — driving under the influence, resisting arrest, evading police and obstructing an officer — just “days earlier”…

And Albuquerque just let’s him go, and he’s back out on the street?

If I get a sweet tan, and change my name to Hector or Juan, can I get immunity from prosecution for anything too?

Because I gotta tell ya, as a white guy, I would have had a high bail, and looking at hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees (and fines), along with being charged for a LOT more crimes (the whole kitchen sink, every possible infraction they can come up with, as is prosecutors’ SOP for white people, to use as leverage to compel a plea bargain), and looking at a minimum of 5 years in State Penitentiary, IF I took a guilty plea deal.

If I demanded a trial, then that’s at least a half million in legal fees and if I lose, I’m looking at 20 years, maybe out in 15 for good behavior.

But what I *&^% sure wouldn’t have experienced, is being SET FREE so I could go commit more crimes in Albuquerque.

BREAKING: Supreme Court Allows Trump Admin to Proceed with Plan to Dismantle Department of Education 6-3 – Sotomayor FUMES

…In May, a federal judge blocked the Trump administration from dismantling the department of education.

…The Trump DOJ appealed Judge Joun’s injunction and the First Circuit Court of Appeals denied their request for an immediate administrative stay.

On Monday, the US Supreme Court in a 6-3 decision allowed Trump to proceed with mass firings at the Department of Education.

Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor fumed in her dissent.

“This case arises out of the President’s unilateral efforts to eliminate a Cabinet-level agency established by Congress nearly half a century ago: the Department of Education,” Sotomayor wrote…

Supreme Court Blocks Lower Court Ruling, Permitting Trump Administration to Fire Dept of Ed Workforce
July 14, 2025 

SD: “In a 6-3 Supreme Court decision today, the majority have blocked a lower court ruling that stopped the Trump administration Dept of Education from downsizing the federal agency.

The justices apparently voted 6-3 to stay the lower court ruling with the DEI justices (gay, latino, black) filing a 19-page dissent. 

[SEE RULING HERE] 

The high court lifted an injunction a federal judge in Boston granted in May against the firing of Dept of Education bureaucrats.”

Bongino report from CNN, so take it for what it’s worth:

https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/14/politics/dan-bongino-epstein

If you don’t want to go there, here is the gist:
• Bongino did go to work today but his future “appeared” uncertain.
• “Sources”: Pres. Trump was infuriated at Bongino’s “threat” that it was either him or Bondi.
• “VP JD Vance spent the weekend attempting to mediate, at times fielding calls from Patel, Bongino and Bondi, sources said.”
• “It remains to be seen if Bongino ultimately resigns, which he told others he was considering. But sources say his relationship with the White House has become basically untenable. Even if he does not quit now, some inside the administration believe he will not stay in the job long-term.”
• ” In a statement Monday, White House spokesman Harrison Fields made mention of Bondi, Patel and Bongino as part of Trump’s ‘incredible team of Law and Order patriots who are committed to Making America Safe Again and restoring the integrity of our criminal justice system.'”

Okay, now think quick, don’t ruin it with a bunch of theory.

Who are the only people who have been pushing the Epstein Case on the public?

Was it Christopher Steele?

Was it Whoa! Nelly?

Was it Strzok and Page?

Was it Comey?

Was it Wray?

Was it Brennan?

Was it it any black hat, at all?

Or was it Bondi, over and over again, with Kash and Dan (for reasons unknown) trying to dampen the expectations that Bondi was creating?

Is that reality, and if not, then what other nefarious actors are not being accounted for, who might have perpetrated this fiasco?

Because how can this be blamed on some black hat psy-op, unless some black hats were actually involved?

Epstein Is A Puppet, Those Behind The Scenes Are The Target, Cover Up Gets You In The End – Ep. 3686

Countries around the world are now caving to Trump’s demands. It was just a matter of time before they did. They can not complete because the system only benefitted them and now they are trapped. The [CB] / Globalist system is over. The [DS] left a trap for Trump, it was called the Epstein files. They manipulated them and let them sit there. When the time was right, the [DS] was going to call for the release of the Epstein files, the files would be like the Russian collusion docs. I believe Trump exposed this before their plan would trap him again. The D’s are going to push it and the people are going to ask questions about it. The real investigation is happening behind the scenes. The [DS] tried to cover up their crimes by pardoning themselves, this just made it worse because the cover up always gets you in the end.

From X22

FBI opens ‘grand conspiracy’ probe on weaponization, opening door to special prosecutor

  • The FBI has quietly launched an investigation into a decade of Democratic party and deep-state antics from Russia collusion to Jack Smith, opening the door for the appointment of a special prosecutor to examine whether the well-documented episodes amount to a criminal conspiracy to meddle in three U.S. elections to the benefit of Democrats and the detriment of President Donald Trump, Just the News has learned.
  • The “grand conspiracy” case was opened several weeks ago after new FBI Director Kash Patel took over, and it could get a significant boost if Trump were to declassify two secret tranches of evidence that identify a potential ignition point to the alleged conspiracy in the summer of 2016, according to several people directly familiar with the inquiry, 
  • The first piece of evidence is a classified annex to a years-old inspector general probe of Hillary Clinton’s improper email server sought by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley. That annex is believed to show that credible information about possible wrongdoing was intentionally ignored by the FBI.
  • The second tranche of evidence was identified by former Russiagate Special Counsel John Durham in his final report. The evidence was dubbed in the report as the “Clinton plan intelligence,” and it was also placed in a classified annex kept from the American public and even many members of Congress.
  • Excerpts from the publicly-available and unclassified Durham report show that U.S. spy agencies were aware that Clinton’s 2016 campaign was concocting a bogus Russia collusion narrative to harm Trump’s election chances before the FBI opened its now-discredited Crossfire Hurricane probe, in part using evidence created by the Clinton campaign or offered by Clinton associates.
  • Both pieces of evidence have remained sealed from public view for nearly a decade and are highly classified because they reveal sensitive intelligence-gathering methods, officials said.
  • The FBI declined comment.

DOJ Press Release

Justice Department Releases Guidance on Implementing President Trump’s Executive Order Designating English as the Official Language of the United States
Monday, July 14, 2025

For Immediate Release

Office of Public Affairs

WASHINGTON — Today, the Department of Justice released Guidance to ensure compliance with President Trump’s Executive Order No. 14224, which establishes English as the official language of the United States of America. Consistent with the Executive Order, the Department of Justice will lead a coordinated effort across federal agencies to minimize non-essential multilingual services, redirect resources toward English-language education and assimilation, and ensure legal compliance with the Executive Order through targeted measures where necessary.

“As President Trump has made clear, English is the official language of the United States,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “The Department of Justice will lead the effort to codify the President’s Executive Order and eliminate wasteful virtue-signaling policies across government agencies to promote assimilation over division.”

“President Trump’s Executive Order marks a pivotal step toward unifying our nation through a common language and enhancing efficiency in federal operations,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon. “The Department of Justice ensures that while we respect linguistic diversity, our federal resources will prioritize English proficiency to empower new Americans and strengthen civic unity.”

While leaving room for linguistic diversity that exists in private and community spheres, this Guidance will help streamline federal processes, reduce administrative burdens, and increase operational efficiency across agencies by removing extensive translation services and de-prioritizing multilingualism over English proficiency. Implementing the Executive Order will enhance social and economic integration, offer new Americans a vital pathway for civic engagement, and further bind Americans together with a shared language.

President Trump’s Executive Order rescinds Executive Order No. 13,166, signed by President Clinton on August 16, 2000. Executive Order No. 13,166 directed agencies to enhance access to federal programs for persons with limited English proficiency and required tailored guidance for recipients of federal funding—straining federal resources and impeding the assimilation of new Americans.

This is the latest Guidance issued by the Department of Justice to implement and administer President Trump’s agenda.

TheseTruths

Fantastic.
Dems can line up a bunch of volunteers to help non-English-speakers navigate when they need help, during times of transition. They can volunteer to tutor them, too, since they have been so keen on having them here without assimilating.
