This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!
Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.
Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!
Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.
The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.
And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.
And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.
OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.
If there is nothing beyond the “W” below, then this is a placeholder. For health reasons, I can’t always post a timely opinion before each Thursday, but I will try. Otherwise, you have this placeholder post, where YOU provide the content. Enjoy!

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Sends Criminal Referrals for ICIG Michael Atkinson and CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella
April 15, 2026
SD: “Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has sent criminal referrals to the DOJ for former Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson and former CIA Analyst (National Intelligence Council) Eric Ciaramella.
Atkinson was the intentional organizer of false impeachment material submitted by CIA operative Ciaramella. Apparently, people know the background. lol
[jpeg of Atkisson and Ciaramella]
.
WASHINGTON DC – The Office of the Director of National Intelligence sent criminal referrals to the Justice Department for the whistleblower whose complaint helped trigger President Donald Trump’s 2019 impeachment and for the former intelligence community inspector general who notified Congress of the allegations, Fox News Digital has learned.
“I want to refer information that may constitute possible criminal activity in violation of federal criminal law committed by one or more former employees of the intelligence community,” ODNI’s general counsel wrote in the referral to the Justice Department. Fox News Digital on Wednesday reviewed the referrals ODNI sent to the Justice Department.
“The possible criminal activity concerns the circumstances described in the following congressional briefings: Discussion with Intelligence Community Inspector General, House Permanent Select Comm. on Intel., 116th Cong. (2019); Briefing by the Intelligence Community Inspector General, House Permanent Select Comm. on Intel., 116th Cong. (2019),” it continued.
[…] An intelligence official told Fox News Digital that the language in the referral is broad, but that it’s specifically directed at Atkinson and the whistleblower who reported concerns about President Trump’s July 2019 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. (read more)
Don’t forget, Michael Atkinson turned the Ciaramella complaint into a criminal referral, a criminal complaint, then submitted it to the U.S. Department of Justice.
Abuse of govt position.
Manufacturing evidence for a legislative procedure.
Conspiracy to conduct fraud.
Lying to federal investigators.
Falsifying information to manufacture a criminal complaint.
It will be interesting to see where this goes.”
[jpeg of SD congratulating himself 😂 ]
that last one…(jpeg) did it fit on the page????
I was already on my own when that issue came out!
Good on you that you found it. 🙃
I always liked their “Fold-Ins” and “The Lighter Side of ….”. Not to mention anything by Don Martin…
There was one gag article where they had school supplies guaranteed to irritate the daylights of the student, the teacher, or both… the panel I remember was the pencil sharpener that would “sharpen” the pencil clear down to the eraser nub at the other end, “Without ever producing a usable point”… The trick being that the tip ended up at the OUTSIDE of the pencil, not the center 😆
There’s plenty that I don’t remember, but the marginals were my favorite, and somehow the Spy v. Spy was a favorite too.
Maybe, it was inspired predictive programming, wherein BOTH the black hat and the white hat were concealing lit bombs behind their backs! Parity.
Fun times! And, learning not to take things so seriously.
Truly, the tag-line “What – me worry?” was the watchword of youth of that era …
Helped tremendously for ones mental health and stamina!
Cheers!
Then there’s spy vs spy vs spy… in St. Patrick’s Day (and other) runs… 🙂
It will fit, just trying to remember to eliminate pics that are non-essential to the story to save blog memory space, since Wolf mentioned it a week or so ago 👍
wow…you lost me…i need more coffee…
the picture of SD congratulating himself–would that even fit on ANY page? LOL
considering the size of his already enormous head.
Ouch.
do you read his stuff? LOL
he’s constantly patting himself on the back for being, not only the FIRST to see “whatever” but that no one else is seeing “whatever”.
the q tree has just as insightful contributors.
SumDunce IS the smartest guy. Duh! 
in every room he’s in (if you take HIS word for it…lol)
I stopped any regular reading OT after SD’s witch banned me for some stupid misdemeanor-level error.
Her over-reaction is an understatement.
I decided right then and there that the site wasn’t worth fighting to stay since he obviously was okay with that level of meglo-mania. .
Thank God somebody [whose name escapes me] was directing us Banned Ones to Wolfm00n’s Q-tree.
The rest is history [and is also our future].
It was Hubby who found this site for me.
I was not banned but I was wondering where all my favorite commenters went.
I wasn’t banned either, but the writing was on the wall.
Well, more like OFF the wall, ’cause many of the posters I knew were kicked out for Q-talk … and that’s where my interests lay!
To each his own, of course, and Wolf has been very professional and gracious about the splinter from OT to RH (Right Here!).
The ‘Big Picture’ turned out to demonstrate the inestimable utility of Q (and the anons) for engendering the Great Awakening.
Ciphers and codes are bothersome to most, and the mantra ‘Future proves Past’ has afforded us clearer focus at this point.
Good things come to those who wait (for the proper time!). We’re getting the payoff now, and much more later on.
What a ride!
“…What a ride!…”
👍 Well said,
he banned me for asking if anyone saw several posters who hadn’t posted in weeks. (they apparently didn’t want to let everyone know they were banning those who didn’t think the sun and the moon rose and set in SD.
i glance at his articles, but the comments are worth perusing imo.
That might have been why I was banned. I was asking where Wheatie and WSB (?) and a couple others were.
probably. couldn’t let everyone know he has a superiority complex…lol.
superiority complexinferiority simplex
Just my opinion; people’s mileage may vary: I don’t even think the site is worth taking the time to read. Almost everything seen there is available elsewhere. And, for me, SD’s commentary does not contain a level of insight that makes it worth slogging through the egotistical construct of the geopolitical landscape. 🤔
I wish them all well and hope they further the cause of MAGA, but I have no desire to be a part of it, and I have no interest in what is said there.
The guy with pot belly pig vectored me here.
Slow Guy went from the wilderness to, Treasured Home.
The pig’s name was Mu-Shu, IIRC.
Wheatie?
No. It was somebody who collected a bunch of us and then sent them over here. It’s all very hazy since chemo messed up my memory.
Flep.
That name does ring a bell. Are they still around? Wheatie was the one I really enjoyed reading.
Many or most days Flep posted something politics, maybe finance also.
Wheatie went home to Jesus some time ago, a few years I think. Flep (poreblog I think) used to do daily opens up until around when the 2020 election was stolen but not sure where he landed.
I actually asked him how his nick should be pronounced. His first name starts with F and his last name is Lepore.
I may be projecting, but he was cautiously optimistic right up until the 2020 election, after which the breathtaking in-your-face corruption shocked him into a lower profile.
In my druthers, I’d hope he’d return someday — but whether he does or does not, I have only the deepest respect and gratitude…..along with hopes for peace and prosperity for him and his clan.
Beautifully said. I was hoping that Flep was working w/ Trump’s people on exposing the Real Results from 2020. I hope he comes back at some point too.
Yes she did. During covid, I think.
😥
OMG, Flep!
I haven’t remembered that handle for YEARS!
Tremendous poster, with a knack for cutting to the chase, and he always was genuine, ready to help and add his insightful perspective.
Wow. What a revived memory for me!
Thanks a bunch!
Cheers!
Yup. Flep for the WIN.
Somehow I found his email.
Surprised Flep opened the email, read it and replied with QTree link AND Best Wishes.
Forever grateful for Flep’s kindness.
Q-Tree is the best tree 😉
Good.

The CIA Tried to Remove a Sitting President
April 15, 2026
SD: “For the past 72 hours I have been attempting to draw attention to the big picture. The CIA tried to remove a sitting United States President.
[jpeg photo of Hussein Oshartstain]
The evidence has been released. {GO DEEP} The long-debated issue is no longer a matter of opinion or question.
The CIA tried to remove a President.
Unfortunately, now we watch the silence.
I see a lot of punditries missing the forest as they peer intently at the trees.
The CIA tried to remove a sitting President.
We now know the real reason CIA whistleblower Eric Ciaramella’s name was never ¹permitted to be mentioned. It’s not the name Eric Ciaramella that presented the issue, it’s the organization where he was working, the CIA – That’s what needed to be protected.
[¹The Biden administration created the Dept of Homeland Security Disinformation Governance Board to interact with Social media and create content controls. That’s where Nina Jankowicz comes in.]
There was/is documented evidence showing the CIA tried to remove a sitting President from office. CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella, the anonymous CIA ‘whistleblower’ worked with Joe Biden on Ukraine policy. Biden appointed DHS Nina Jankowicz worked inside Zelenskyy’s campaign HQ. Just a coincidence?
Don’t get lost in the details or the politics of this. When you peel back all the layers of DC, at its epicenter this was an operation to impeach a sitting President that came from within the CIA, and it almost succeeded. {GO DEEP}
In the details, an impeachment effort against President Trump was triggered when a member of the National Security Council named Alexander Vindman coordinated with a member of the CIA National Intelligence Council named Eric Ciaramella to fabricate a false claim that President Trump leveraged his power and authority to demand Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy release information on Joe and Hunter Biden’s corrupt financial dealings in Ukraine.
At the time of the 2019 impeachment construct Eric Ciaramella was working for the CIA as an analyst within the National Intelligence Council (NIC).
Two years prior to the 2019 impeachment construct, in January 2017, the same CIA analyst, Eric Ciaramella, had worked on the fraudulent Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) at the behest of CIA Director John Brennan.
Outlining Ciaramella’s activity not only hits CIA Director John Brennan and former DNI James Clapper, but it also hits former President Barack Obama.”
(more…)
it should hit obummer with a brick!
“I see a lot of punditries missing the forest as they peer intently the trees.”
THIS is the problem that irks me – his failing attempts in language, both lexical and syntactical.
One may say ‘pundits,’ or ‘punditry,’ but not ‘punditries.’
The saying is usually phrased as “[One] can’t see the forest for the trees,” and it’s short and sweet.
The tortuous re-do on SD’s usage makes me cringe, here and almost every time I read a full article.
Plain language communicates quite well – there isn’t any need (for the reader, anyway) to use language beyond ones level of expertise.
*Trying* to be smart is quite a different thing than *being* smart.
And, to dumb MFers, smart MFers seem like crazy MFers.
(That was a pithy meme by an anon! Moral? Gotta stay in ones own lane!)
So … am I a crazy MFer?
I believe that you qualify, pgroup! Rest easy…
Curious – why pgroup TWO?

Simple.
Lol. My problem with math isn’t intellectual, it’s psychological. I have an aversion to it, which I make light of.
I can do math, but I was literally traumatized by teachers who didn’t understand my math mind. Many years later, a man who traveled the world teaching math teachers to teach math, explained to me that there are many ways people learn math, but very few teachers teach more than one way.
YES!!!
Back in the day (80s), college math departments tended to have about 55% analysts (Calculus), 40% algebraists (Algebra), and 5% geometricians (Geometry).
Lol. Figures. I loved geometry, hated algebra, and calculus? Fuggedaboudit!
Slow Guy resembles that post.
We’re not slow; apparently we are special! There are only a few of us.
Laughing here. No insinuation implied towards you.
Special, for the Win.
Geometry made sense from day one. Easy to, “visualize”.
Algebra, stumbled through it.
Higher math, not a chance.
You are right-brained. Are you left-handed by chance? Did you walk early, and bypass crawling? Those are signs of mostly visual intelligence.

Geometry was part of the classical education that our western civilization was built upon.
For anyone interested in the boy attacked by the knife-wielding woman:
‘Life is precious, and hold ’em tight’: Parents of boy attacked at Omaha Walmart talk in aftermath of fatal incident
He has a gash on the left side of his face that required stitches. He seems to be doing well physically but has some fears of being outside. It could have been so much worse.
I was afraid to ask. I am very glad that it seems much less than I’d expected.
When he gets to school (he’s three), he can tell his classmates he got the scar dueling at Heidelberg.
[Brave AI —
A Heidelberg dueling scar (German: Schmiss) is a facial scar earned through Mensur, a traditional academic fencing ritual practiced by student fraternities at German universities like Heidelberg, Bonn, and Jena.
These scars, typically appearing on the left side of the face due to right-handed combatants, were historically worn as badges of honor signifying courage, social standing, and “good husband material” during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
The practice involved two fencers standing at a fixed distance, arm’s length apart, using specialized swords (Schläger) to cut each other’s unprotected faces without flinching or dodging. While the custom largely died out after World War II, it remains a symbol of the Studentcorps tradition, with historical records noting that some students accumulated over 100 scars, while others in modern times have even sought to fake the appearance through self-inflicted wounds.
Key characteristics of the tradition include:
]
In the movie Kelly’s Heroes, the Panzer tank commander had the scar on the right side of his face.
Was that as a joke or was it a movie goof? I still don’t know.
Oddball, Donald Sutherland’s character?
Just did a search, didn’t see a scar on either side of his face in the still photos from the film, but they’re not the highest resolution photos, so it would be easy to miss if the scar is small.
I remember the scene now. The PANZER tank commander.
When I read ‘tank commander’, I skipped right over the “Panzer” part, and just thought of Oddball.
He could say someone tried to give him the “Glasgow Smile,” like this actor:
Scottish actor Tommy Flanagan is well-known for having distinct scars on both cheeks, a result of a real-life knife attack known as a “Glasgow smile”. He is famous for playing Filip “Chibs” Telford on Sons of Anarchy and roles in movies like Gladiator, Braveheart, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. [1, 2, 3]
Flanagan was attacked outside a club where he worked as a DJ, leaving him with permanent scars on both sides of his face.
A much more brave and romantic story than being attacked by a mentally ill women in a Walmart parking lot. But the boy’s story is remarkable nonetheless.

The knowledge of who my ancestors were drives me in a lot of ways. It’s compelling to know I have 50+ people in my line who were willing to fight and possibly die for American liberty. It’s also interesting to have many religious leaders and pastors who forged ahead into the American continent, spreading Jesus’ gospel.
They sure set a high bar.
Sorry…can’t help but notice…you won’t recognize Lauren Boebert. 🤔 I hope she does find some things out, though.

They are going to find and some probably already know that what the autists dug up years ago was true. They will then publicly posture about accountability to the American public and actually do nothing.

I have never looked for the frazzledrip video, because I don’t want to see it. But it is “in the wild” somewhere, not just on the Weiner laptop, because regular old non-law enforcement people have seen it. Otherwise, it’s an “urban legend,” and not real. Either way, it would be good to know.
I hope Boebert has good security and gets access to whatever is there.
i’ll go one step further–I don’t even know frazzledrip is.

Mamdani’s plan to spend a whopping $30M to open NYC-owned supermarket stuns grocery executives: ‘I almost fell back’
https://nypost.com/2026/04/13/business/mamdanis-30m-plan-to-open-nyc-owned-supermarket-stuns-grocery-executives/
Kaner and Pena both said that a typical, 15,000-square-foot store without elevators or escalators costs under $10 million to build.
But it was the location of the store that raised even greater concerns with some executives. The city-owned store will be built on an empty lot next to La Marqueta, a decades-old, city-owned marketplace located under the Metro North railroad tracks at the corner of East 115th Street and Park Avenue.
The problem: The new location is far from qualifying as a so-called “food desert” — a struggling neighborhood where supermarket closures have made groceries hard to come by.
So where is the other $20 million going? Into Mamdani supporting politicians and friends pockets?
Aldi U.S. CEO Atty McGrath (Aldi US) said a new Aldi store costs roughly $4–5 million to build.
Having dealt with attempting to finance real estate projects in NYC BIMD – yes – a large percentage of the project cost goes to governmental and union lap dog corruption,
wow…did you ever meet POTUS doing that?

F Troop….
I remember it well. However what is funny is I remember a B rated movie that was shown at a drive-in theater when Mom & I went to see the 1964 film The Unsinkable Molly Brown. It was called F-Troop about a fort out west where the Army decided to send all the misfits to. HOWEVER I can find nothing about that original movie.
Mom & I thought it was much better than The Unsinkable Molly Brown.
I had a brief (but memorable) stay at the Brown Palace hotel in Denver. The Unsinkable Molly Brown stayed there a week after the Titanic went down.
Duck AI was unable to help me identify what they heck you saw, but it thought either a premiere episode or a similar movie were plausible.
Found on Brave
No, there was no movie titled F Troop; the story you are describing is from the 1965–1967 ABC-TV sitcom F Troop.
The premise involved Captain Wilton Parmenter, an inept clerk accidentally promoted to captain, being sent to command Fort Courage, a remote frontier post used by the Army as a dumping ground for its “least useful” soldiers and misfits.
While there is no film with that specific title, the 1964 movie Advance to the Rear (released as Company of Cowards in the UK) shares a nearly identical plot involving a unit of misfits and cowards sent to the West, and it is considered the likely inspiration for the television series.
I’ll bet that’s it! They even had “Q Troop” in the movie! (I swear that’s not us!)
Yet another instance of Mission Treep…
Hah!

Then Miller dropped what he said is the single most important part of the entire story — and it leaves the Democrat Party completely exposed.
MILLER: “The most important part about this story, and look, Swalwell is a scumbag, he is a terrible person, the worst of the worst, the lowest of the low, the most dishonest of the most dishonest…”
“But the real story here is how the Democrat party controls its members through blackmail.”
“It’s got a blackmail file on all of its politicians and it uses them to leverage and control them until it’s time to release it.”
“That is how sick and twisted the Democrat party is.”
“That’s the next thread we have to pull out here.”
I’m thinking it’s not just the D party that plays that game.
i think you’re right.
Prolly so. If so, R-Cons are failures at it.
R-Cons don’t support America First. In no particular order.
they should be limited to 2 terms. both houses. they spend too much time campaigning and schmoozing donors that the people’s work does not get done.
They represent the DONORS/CORPORATIONS/OLIGARCHS and not the people.
Max amount donated to politics should be $1,500 per PERSON. No Unions, corporations NGO… Citzens United needs to be overturned. Corporations have NO BUSINESS MEDDLING in politics.
exactly
Count me in on that.
Some do other disgusting things as well. They are fakes,actors playing roles. Party leadership, lobbyists and donors rule their actions.
With a handful of exceptions, Club Senate is country club of self important pompous asses who do only what they are ordered to do by their handlers.
#47 is trying his best to lead them out of bondage. It is really clear that some are owned and cannot/will not do it. It will be up to We the People to boot their azzes.
which we might be able to do with FAIR ELECTIONS
And they can get rich while in Congress, too.
So you’re okay with giving the staff even more power? That’s what will happen if there are term limits on the critters.
no, when a congress critter goes, so does his/her staff. there is an orientation provided and mandatory classes to attend BEFORE they step one foot in washington,
i refuse to believe that a job that has that much time off requires years of training to accomplish.
Yeah, if they’re blackmailers, they’re about as good at it as these guys:
That is why we call it tie UNIPARTY.
I never considered this. Idaho has a measure that precludes allowing school districts to use taxpayer funded resources to support the teachers’ union.
article
Idaho Gov. Brad Little has signed into law a measure prohibiting public schools from using taxpayer-funded resources to support teachers’ unions, a move supporters say restores government neutrality while critics argue it limits educators’ ability to organize.
The legislation, House Bill 516, bars school districts from facilitating payroll deductions for union dues and restricts the use of public resources to assist union activities. The law is set to take effect July 1.
Supporters of the measure, including the Freedom Foundation, which prompted the report, argue that allowing payroll deductions amounts to indirect taxpayer support because public employees and systems are used to process payments.
“Government shouldn’t be picking winners and losers in political debates,” Maxford Nelsen, the Freedom Foundation’s director of research and government affairs, told The Center Square in an exclusive interview. “It shouldn’t be aiding and providing special privileges or subsidies to particular advocacy groups.”
“By getting school districts out of this business of using taxpayer funds, collect union dues and prop up teachers’ union activity – that’s just restoring neutrality,” Nelsen added.
Nelsen said the main issue is not that union dues themselves are taxpayer money, but that school districts act as billing agents by using public payroll systems and staff time to collect and process those dues.
“They will definitely recruit more people to join the organization if they are allowed to use payroll deduction,” Nelsen said. “Then if they had to go out like any other private membership organization and get people to actually purchase, take the affirmative step of handing their payment information to them, and purchase that membership.”
He added that while administrative costs may be relatively small, the payroll system creates what he described as an “in-kind value” that benefits unions and is not available to other private advocacy groups.
The Idaho Education Association argues that unions are funded entirely by member contributions.
“We are 100% funded by member dues,” Mike Journee, director of communication at the IEA, told The Center Square. “The bill’s sponsors intentionally misrepresented the option of using payroll deduction to pay dues as a talking point to pass deeper restrictions on our members’ ability to organize at their worksite.”
The IEA is now urging members to switch from payroll deduction to IEA AutoPay before the law takes effect and to stay engaged politically ahead of upcoming elections.
Little signed the bill April 10, with a letter stating the Republican governor “strongly supported teachers’ ability to advocate for their profession.”
“However, while local and state teachers’ associations do important work, they remain private organizations that currently receive taxpayer-funded support not extended to other private entities. House Bill 516a addresses that imbalance,” Little wrote.

I want teachers unions BANNED!!!
State and Federal Governments should have no say in education. School districts should be entirely local.
AMEN!
Where the local town hires the school teacher(s) they WANT and not the people the Communists shove down our throats.
ME TOO!
a teacher was complaining to me about rising taxes when I worked at a borough office and in the same breath said…thank goodness we got our raises.
i looked her in the eyes and asked where do you think THAT raise came from???
she dumbly replied–the school.
so i said and WHERE does the school get its money from?
the government, she replied.
i said that’s right…and part of YOUR property taxes and real estate taxes go to the school district (at least in the borough).
after I helped her pick her chin off the floor, all she said was OH.
And Dumb asses like that KEEP THEIR JOBS because of the teachers Unions.
EXACTLY!
Remember, the next time we are lamenting the state of American education, somebody that dumb was a teacher.
it’s frightening, isn’t it?
Unfortunately true.
I went for a teaching degree as well as my BS in Chemistry. Most were history majors followed by English with a handful of math, physics and chemistry majors We are talking maybe 10 in those subjects vs 200+ in English & History.
Ban ALL public sector unions!
How about banning collective bargaining with public sector unions. Or simply banning public sector unions outright.
sounds good to me.
Ban them out right. They are SUPPOSED to work for us but they sure don’t act like it!
The latter. 👍
Watching Makis. Hoping he is the real deal. Seems, he’ll set up shop(s) in FL soon.
Not trying to cause a ruckus. Truth is, US based vendors of IVM and other stuff needed, is absolutely over priced. Gouging, IMO. But, we pay, because alternative sources are very, very, limited. Less than ideal choices.
India, my typical source is, over priced.
True TX IVM OTC is a bit high, with limited dosage levels available. Brick and mortar store and took my phone order, without fuss. EASY to do business with. Quick delivery.
I don’t care for the pissing contest of sorts between him and other docs, we read about. Counterproductive. Push their goodness, business model, available products and skip the pissing contest.
BREAKING NEWS: Do NOT BUY overpriced IVERMECTIN & MEBENDAZOLE Kits !!
After two years of my hard work, Ivermectin and Mebendazole have finally reached mainstream podcasts and news.
But now, some companies are preying on cancer patients and ripping them off by selling overpriced, low quality Ivermectin and Mebendazole kits.
I am vehemently opposed to such predatory acts.
On one hand you have health freedom fighters being paid off by Big Pharma to attack cancer patients for using Ivermectin, on the other hand you have fly-by-night companies preying on Cancer patients selling horrendously expensive kits, for “parasite cleanses” or cancer.
It’s all designed to taint the new exciting field of repurposed drugs and sour the experience for vulnerable cancer patients.
There are honest pharmacies that will help.
Even honest companies that will provide affordability and accessability.
Don’t give these flashy con artists with expensive “Kits” your money. They charge you 5x what they should and you lose dosing flexibility as well.
When I settle in Florida, I will make sure these companies are all put out of business.
Cancer patients must have easy access to Ivermectin, Mebendazole and Fenbendazole – that’s the most important thing.
I will make that a priority, that’s a promise.
Ivermectin will be OTC in Florida VERY SOON!
Unfortunately what he is saying is true. Big Pharma is now fighting for it’s life and they are NASTY!
Remember Linda said her cancer group (Facebook) had the fenben they used tested and found out it had very little fenben. The company’s ‘independent testing laboratory’ was actually owned by the same parent company. They were LYING!
Agree. Zero chance I’ll support Big Pharma, CDC, FDA…
My issue is Makis and other docs providing IVM and other needed drugs are pissing and moaning against each other. Counterproductive.
Over priced drugs is a related issue.
I agree – counterproductive. Typical of the medical industry.
I use The Wellness Company, but they are high as well. Their product is USA based and TWC has already been in FL for several years doing what Makis is claiming. Some of the extra cost goes to meet the prescription regulatory requirements for tele health providers. Cut that out and the price would drop. I hope they get that done for IVM there.
Regulatory costs are a real killer!
Sigh…
Ivermectin can be had very cheaply at the feed store.
Mebendazole is harder to get. But I remain unconvinced that it is better than fenbendazole. I think it is *possible* that the hype of mebendazole as better is a way to rip people off. Fenben is everywhere.
Just remember what Linda told us about sources. You have to find 100% fenbendazole, and many brands are only 5%.

It’s a private group. But anyone who has cancer or is the care giver of someone with cancer can join.
Thanks for the link.
You are welcome. They are getting harder to find.
I believe FarceBorg shut down that FenBen Group 🙁
I have it saved in multiple places.
JUST IN: Officials now believe that the Trump-Rubio spearheaded talks could lead to LEBANON joining President Trump’s ABRAHAM PEACE ACCORDS
That would be huge!
These were the first direct Israel-Lebanon talks in DECADES in DC, and major peace could break out soon https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f44f-1f3fb.svg
“Israeli officials tell Fox News they believe direct talks could lead to Lebanon joining the Abraham Accords.”
so hail never existed before??? LOLOLOL

That is one of my favorite movies of all time. And I believe it’s telling the truth; “signs” from God are everywhere, but we miss them when we aren’t looking.
I agree
The funniest part of the whole movie was Mel Gibson running around the house trying to cuss. Hysterical.
IKR???
altho seeing the three of them (phoenix and the 2 kids) wearing the tin foil hats was pretty funny too.
I love everything about that movie. I’m going to have to watch it again.
Character research taken way too far. 😂

JUST NOW: SecWar Pete Hegseth CALLS OUT the Fake News to their FACES
“Sometimes it’s hard to figure out what side some of you are actually on! It’s incredibly unpatriotic.”
“I just can’t help but notice the endless stream of GARBAGE, the relentlessly negative coverage, you cannot resist pedaling, despite the historic and important success of this effort and the success of our troop troops.”
“You explained away the disastrous and disgraceful Afghanistan withdrawal. You called it the greatest airlift in American history!”
“It’s almost like you’re cheering only for one side.”
not almost…EXACTLY like they’re cheering for one side.
From Badlands
The report was first published by Reuters and cited a senior Iranian official as its source. US officials denied the report, but the funds are allegedly held in Qatar and are directly tied to the sanctions President Trump placed on Iran in 2018 when he went withdrew from the nuclear deal. (He sanctioned Iranian central bankers, and those bankers were subsequently arrested by the Iranian government a few months later and charged with the exact crimes President Trump accused them of in his sanctions.)
The other development would be a report that the CIA used the Pegasus software, made by the NSO Group, to run a deception operation against IRGC officials as part of the rescue operation of the US pilot who was reported to have been shot down in Iran.
Iranians lying again:
“An unnamed “senior Iranian source” told news outlet Reuters that the United States had agreed to unfreeze the assets and that the move was directly linked to ensuring safe passage in the Strait of Hormuz.”
Denial:
“A senior US official denied on Saturday a report saying Washington had agreed to release Iran’s frozen assets held in Qatar and other foreign banks.”
https://www.vanguardngr.com/2026/04/us-official-denies-report-washington-agreed-to-unfreeze-iran-assets/
YUP!
It underlines what Pete Hegseth said about the Fake news.
Nonsense.
islamis must give up uranium and nuclear program, at a minimum.
Never said they should not.
Notice it is a Reuters report. Not exactly a pro-Trump source. As Pete Hegseth said, the Fake News seems to be cheering for the Iranians.
And it also says: US officials denied the report,
A senior Iranian official source. Yeah Right.
A little bit more than a week ago they told us that President Trump agreed to all of their 10 points, including keeping nuclear material, leave all the US bases in the Mid East and pay reparations and Reuters, CNN and Axios supposedly broke that story.
Good GRIEF.
That’s straight up propaganda designed to keep Dems on the farm, IMO. Demmunists need to show Trump capitulating, true or false. Doesn’t matter that the story is shown to be untrue later. Fascinating strategy.
Also from Badlands.
I have hear Marco Polo may also be working on the Epstein Files.
Hanging aroung with the wrong kind of people….
Demonic!!!
Headline news is reporting that a former Lt. Governor of VA murdered his wife and then committed suicide. In their home with their two teenaged children in the house.
They were supposedly going through a “messy” divorce. Sounds to me like that might have some relation to the House sex slush fund.
Or I could just be one of those conspiracy theory persons. With a tinfoil hat.
This? Former Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax and his wife dead in murder-suicide
Justin Fairfax – Wikipedia
Police believe the murder happened in the basement of the home and at some point after shooting his wife, Justin Fairfax ran upstairs of the home to the primary bedroom, where he shot himself. He used the same gun, but police have not recovered it yet.
^^ ^ Closing line is precious.
I spose his suicide, includes double tap to the back of the head.
Sure does STINK esp given Fartwell.
It’s not a funny situation, but LOL at the reporting.
That’s an interesting take, especially with Gail’s info that he faced sexual assault charges before.
Excellent presser.

Can Catholics rise up and impeach a pope?
Seriously, what do people do when their “leader” turns out to be like this? Thank God I’m not a Catholic. I would be losing my mind about now. This guy is not only nuts, but appears completely unaware of the hypocrisy of what he is saying.
So WHY did you meet with Obama’s chief strategist David Axelrod?
Financier shocks CNN panel by sharing shock conspiracy
I love how PDJT just pushes through this stuff. The influencers turn on him and he doubles down on them, undeterred by their “influence.” The Pope (apparently) conspires to hurt MAGA’s midterm chances, and PDJT comes at him with both barrels, unafraid of the possibility of turning Catholic voters against him. Trump doesn’t play those games.
Nobody who is truly conservative is going to vote for the other side. And anybody who cares at all about the country is going to go out and vote. The ones who pout and “stay home” are few, in my opinion. And to be chastised for doing so.
Osatan is about to throw another schism at the RCC!
At the time that Leo was selected this was the prevailing opinion. He was aimed at hopefully restoring the lagging donations/involvement of US Cathoics.

Replying to @CynicalPublius
I agree with you 💯 percent. Why do we have a Pope? The answer is always money. The only reason Leo was elected is because he’s an American and they know he can easily get to us. The church is bankrupt so, bring in the American, who will surely bring in money from the Americans
…
And it is backfiring.
I agree with Lambert – there is a definite play here, and I think he has his fingers on it! Osatan would LOVE to use the RCC as a human shield to go after Trump. It’s win-win for Osatan.
Down underneath, the institutional RCC (moneymaker charity NGO wing) has been badly defunded by Trump closing the borders. That is dynamite that Obama packed into the church over years and years – and now Osatan is ready to detonate it!
Osatan and his minion Axelrod hope to take out Trump using an expendable pawn, but it’s just gonna be one badly injured RCC jihadist and Trump still standing. Osatan will get away with only minor powder burns on his fingers, as always!
Yes, and check out this data point…

Pope Leo is from the ‘Michael Pfleger’ wing of Chicago Catholics
Starting to make sense!
Cynical Publius has had quite a bit to say about it.
Cynical Publius
@CynicalPublius
I have been pretty emphatic the last few days in condemning Pope Leo’s foray into American politics.
My detractors are having fun stating that I am doing this out of allegiance to President Trump and that I have chosen Trump over God.
WRONG.
The biggest reason by far why I am so vocal on this is the damage Pope Leo is doing to the Catholic Church in the USA.
I believe Pope Leo has done more to harm US Catholicism in just a few days than any other Pope of the past 100 years (even Francis).
Pope Leo is literally causing orthodox, faithful American Catholics to flee the Church out of disgust over his leftwing politicization and his kowtowing to Islam. Moreover, he has opened the door for boundless criticism against Catholicism from certain Protestant denominations and churches, causing untold harm to Christian ecumenism in the USA.
It is precisely because I care so much about the Church that Jesus founded in AD 33 that I oppose the havoc Pope Leo has unleashed in the US Church.
(And yes, under Church doctrine and as a Catholic, I am fully entitled to hold such beliefs and express them.)

Whoa!!!
Just The News: “Former Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax fatally shot his wife, then himself inside of their home, authorities said Thursday morning. The shootings were related to a domestic dispute related “what seems to be a complicated or messy divorce,” said Fairfax County Police Chief Kevin Davis, according to CNN.
The incident reportedly occurred in the family’s Annandale, Virginia, home shortly after midnight.
Fairfax was lieutenant governor under Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam from 2018 to 2022. He also ran for governor of Virginia in 2021. Fairfax faced calls for resignation following sexual assault allegations against him in 2019, CNN also reports.”
ironic, no?
I didn’t know that irony had a death side effect.
IMO this has some connection to the House sex abuse slush fund.
will we ever be allowed to know?
Yes. The only question is how long until we’re told.
maybe after each congress member who’s benefited from the fund dies?
There is some weird s*** going on with this dude!

✟
“Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.”
Romans 15:13 (KJV)
COMMENTARY FOR ROMANS 15:13
Directions how to behave towards the weak. (1-7) All to receive one another as brethren. (8-13) The writing and preaching of the apostle. (14-21) His purposed journeys. (22-29) He requests their prayers. (30-33)
8-13 Christ fulfilled the prophecies and promises relating to the Jews, and the Gentile converts could have no excuse for despising them. The Gentiles, being brought into the church, are companions in patience and tribulation. They should praise God. Calling upon all the nations to praise the Lord, shows that they shall have knowledge of him. We shall never seek to Christ till we trust in him. And the whole plan of redemption is suited to reconcile us to one another, as well as to our gracious God, so that an abiding hope of eternal life, through the sanctifying and comforting power of the Holy Spirit, may be attained. Our own power will never reach this; therefore where this hope is, and is abounding, the blessed Spirit must have all the glory. “All joy and peace;” all sorts of true joy and peace, so as to suppress doubts and fears, through the powerful working of the Holy Spirit.
Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
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.

When Jane Fonda went political with her speech at the National Audubon Society, she probably didn’t expect to be heckled…by Kelsey Grammer.
“I’m sorry, Jane,” Grammer said as he interrupted her monologue about Trump, “But this banquet is about birds and people who wish to donate money to protect them. Do you think you could stay on topic?”
Fonda answered by reminding him that she has a history of using public platforms for politics.
“Which is why I’m amazed that anyone invites you anywhere,” Grammer fired back, “It’s getting a little bit old.”
KaBoom. Hanoi Jane deserved that blatant blast in her over worked face.
Fish lips, bleah.
Big Mouth Hanoi Jane… 🐟
She has had so much plastic surgery, yikes.
I saw her in a movie made several years ago where she played a senior citizen vamp. Like she was well into her true age but still attempting to be the sexy old gal of the group..it weirded me out. Her face and perfect wigs were very convincing but you can’t usually fake being agile, nimble and sure footed when you’re elderly. Those little steps and spindly walking gave her away.
Hahah long story for little value!! My trademark
I did adore her in Cat Ballou…how old is that movie??? LOL
made in late 60’s maybe?
sounds about right.
I thought she played her part well in Monster-in-Law. She is a good actress.
never saw that one…but i did see Barefoot in the Park and i liked it.
I’m not sure if this one is real. A footnote on the X says ; The watermark on this image indicates this false story originated on a satire Facebook page called “America’s Last Line of Defense” (ALLOD) who states that “Nothing on this page is real”.
facebook.com/ALLODSatire
ALLOD is associated with the Dunning-Kruger-Times, where “Everything…is fiction.”

Thought I’d spare us from getting too much fun out of it if it’s satire..
oh! i thought that referred to jane’s face and all her plastic surgery…my bad!
😅 hmmm you could be right!
Too bad he didn’t say,
“Jane, you ignorant slut!”…. 😀

Good morning, C&C, it’s Thursday! Today’s good-news roundup includes: how the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ both closed at record highs yesterday — higher than before the Iran war started — while gas prices fell and the Producer Price Index came in well below expectations, forcing the entire New York Times to publish a story so embarrassing that no individual reporter would put their name on it; how record tax refunds from last year’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act are landing in bank accounts from coast to coast, burying the Democrats’ “affordability” mid-term strategy under a pile of their own voters’ money; how New York City’s socialist mayor is spending $30 million to build a single grocery store that you could buy, already operational, for $2 million — and has already walked back his promise of “universally cheaper groceries” to a mysterious “core basket” nobody can define; and how Gallup just recorded the largest two-year swing in religiosity for any demographic group in 25 years of polling — a 14-point surge among young men that erased a decade of secularization in a single measurement cycle, but will young women follow them into the pews?

griftproceeds… 😡 😡 😡 😡this mass amnesty monstrosity puts illegal aliens ahead of Americans
.
article
Another amnesty push is happening on Capitol Hill, yet the sponsors of the DIGNIDAD (Dignity) Act of 2025 are attempting to market it as not an amnesty bill.
“America last” Republicans like Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, R-Fla, the original co-sponsor of the bill and daughter of Cuban immigrants, refuse to recognize what the American people mandated the Trump administration to do—carry out mass deportations.
For starters, the acronym of the bill name is in Spanish, which is not the official language of the U.S.. Naming an amnesty bill in a foreign language is a slap in the face to Americans, and a Member of Congress legislating on behalf of the illegal immigrant population is disloyal to America.
The Daily Signal depends on the support of readers like you. Donate now
The DIGNIDAD Act has been drafted to give legal status to at least 13 million illegal immigrants who have been in the U.S. for many years because removing them or encouraging them to self-deport is supposedly unkind and a threat to their dignity as a human person. However, the dignity of the American citizen was never accounted for as this bill was drafted (or, frankly, any time amnesty is considered).
Failing to mass deport is already tacit amnesty, but codifying amnesty in legislation is a direct contradiction of immigration law and only encourages the next wave of illegal immigration.
There are multiple types of amnesty in the DIGNIDAD Act. First, “DREAMer” amnesty would be granted to the estimated 2.5 million illegal aliens who entered the U.S. as minors. Under this amnesty, the person would be given 10 years of conditional status, then full permanent residence would be available to them, the precursor to U.S. citizenship.
Second, the act establishes the Dignity Program, which would give around 11 million illegal aliens who have been in the U.S. since before Dec. 31, 2020—prior to Biden’s border crisis—amnesty. Illegal aliens benefiting from this receive renewable legal status, work authorization, and the ability to travel in and out of the U.S. as they please. The only condition is that they check in every two years.
Third, amnesty is given to illegal alien spouses and children of U.S. citizens.
In addition to amnesty, the bill inhibits use of information provided in DIGNIDAD benefit applications from being used for immigration enforcement. This would repeat a terrible policy from the 1986 amnesty law that only fostered fraud.
The bill would prevent immigration enforcement actions from occurring in or near an overbroad list of “protected areas,” including places where children gather, where ceremonies like weddings occur, medical health facilities, and courthouses, among others.
The DIGNIDAD Act wouldn’t just gut immigration enforcement; it would also increase and expand legal immigration benefits. The bill would double employment-based visas and codify the foreign student-to-employee pipeline by allowing all “temporary” foreign students to remain permanently in the U.S.. It would codify the Optional Practical Training program, which incentivizes employers to hire foreign graduates instead of American graduates, and allow STEM Ph.D. and medical students to self-petition for both temporary and permanent visas.
America’s immigration system is for Americans, but the DIGNIDAD Act is for the rest of the world.
The current push for this bill is to put conservatives on defense, opposing amnesty, instead of being on offense, advocating for mass deportations and other, better legislation that would actually enforce our immigration laws and prevent noncitizens from voting in our federal elections.
The DIGNIDAD Act defies the will of the American people. That is undignified.
https://www.dailysignal.com/2026/04/16/americans-want-mass-deportations-not-amnesty/
It’s gaslighting. It is clearly a form of amnesty, but they’re saying, “See, it’s not.” I think they’re trying to make us crazy.
they’re hoping the name fools everyone and no one reads the bill.
Using a bill with a Spanish title jumps that gap that this is the USA not some mongrel North American/South American Congress. We haven’t gone bi-lingual. Is that next on their wish list?
they will have to go multi lingual–with all the different languages spoken in congress–especially if you add in forked tongue and outright lying right?
LOL..those are extra for the political class.
Can we imagine the chaos if they started carving out special places for individual languages!?
The spanish only McDonalds. The somali only WalMart. The creole only Kroger. It’s bad enough with ebonics
i thought they only spoke redneck at the walmart?
Ebonic Plague…
BQQM!
and using the spanish word is outright pandering to their real constituents.
👍 👍 👍
“…We haven’t gone bi-lingual. Is that next on their wish list?…”
Hate to tell you we are ALREADY bi-lingual to the point that Hubby & I have had to learn at least SOME spanish in order to do business.
I get that especially after living in Cali so long but at the end of the day we are an English speaking country so…learning a bit to do business or be helpful or just cause we want to is still a choice.
It is gaslighting by the RINO/uniparty operatives of fhe GOP. That is called “targets” for MAGA patriots.
I have a better idea.
I, like most Americans have PAID the bills for AT LEAST one other family (probably 2) SO Hubby and I get 3 illegals AS INDENTURED SERVANTS/SLAVES for 20 years. Given our age, they will be sold as part of our estate.
LOL…then you gotta pay their health insurance an provide meals and housing.
….and pay for beer. Apparently that’s a staple for hispanic tradesmen. A house is going up across the street (street being a narrow dirt sand road) and I keep having to chuck beer bottles out of my yard back over to the work site.
that’s gross.
Nah, you buy a couple used trailers for housing, have THEM plant a garden and raise their goats & chickens for THEIR food (and yours) Health insurance? Whats that? They get sick ship them home.

She appears to have stopped championing the Epstein victims. Now would be a great opportunity to speak up since Melania just advocated for them to have the opportunity to testify before Congress. That would get their stories on the record and could lead to more investigations, but curiously, they don’t seem to want to do it, and MTG is not taking up the torch from Melania’s lead.
MTG is taking the torch to her own reputation. Whatever good people can recall of her before she went lunatic fringe is in tatters.

Well, that can’t be goodDetails are sketchy, but the Viva refinery in Corio, Geelong Victoria is reportedly on fire in a big way. This is (or was) one of Australia’s last two remaining oil refineries supplying 10% of domestic needs. Reports on X and Reddit claim the fire started with an explosion at about 11pm in Victoria, with “flames 100ft high”.
The Aussies are doing a great job of committing slow suicide.
Not so slow anymore. It started to accelerate once they grabbed their guns.
It may be assisted suicide — was the refinery hit with a drone?

Just say no.
But I feel for those who completely rely on doctors. I know there are people working 10-hour days, with families to care for, who don’t have time to keep up with and research a lot of things. It’s a travesty they we can’t rely on our medical system to do us good and not harm.
A MIDWESTERN DOCTOR’S excellent stack on the Blood Pressure Scam; relentless monitory & the fraud & scam of over medicalization. Scam Exploring the Forgotten Causes and Treatments of Hypertension
AND
The Great Blood Pressure Scam – by A Midwestern Doctor (substack.com)
Excellent scholarship, please support:
I was thrust down this road last year when I needed a clearance from my Primary care Dr. for my prostatectomy.
He wouldn’t sign off because of my BP being to high. I definitely have white coat syndrome, but he wouldn’t budge.
Ended up having to postpone surgery eleven weeks, the surgeon wouldn’t operate until I had been on the BP for at least eight weeks.
Had the surgery, stopped the BP meds after the surgery, now my BP is in the normal range for my age according to the standards I’m going by.
I’m not playing their game anymore.
I had a follow visit with the Surgeon, when we went over my chart with the nurse she asked if I’m still taking the BP med. Told her no, she asked was it your decision or the Doctors.
My decision, she looks at me and smiles giving me the okay.
You made the right choice.
If you had come into the hospital via the emergency room, would he/she have refused to treat you due to blood pressure?
Ask next time. The answer might be interesting.
They can’t make you take medicine. Just don’t take it.
If you feel you can’t refuse, for whatever reason, fill the prescription, and then find one of those nifty disposal containers for drugs. Our police station has one. Who cares if you “waste” the poison?
“Doctors are now encouraged to start medication earlier”
If doctors want to poison themselves by starting earlier, who am I to deny them?

How did the criminal, demonic news media not cover this wall to wall, every single day, until the criminal Autopen administration was forced to obey the Law?

JUST NOW: President Trump is classifying the White House ballroom is a MILITARY imperative project, declaring a judge CANNOT be allowed stop construction
GOOD!
“One with Bomb Shelters, a State of the Art Hospital and Medical Facilities, Protective Partitioning, Top Secret Military Installations, Structures, and Equipment, Protective Missile Resistant Steel, Columns, Roofs, and Beams, Drone Proof Ceilings and Roofs, Military Grade Venting, and Bullet, Ballistic, and Blast Proof Glass —which all means that no future President, living in the White House without this Ballroom, can ever be Safe and Secure at Events, Future Inaugurations, or Global Summits.”
“This Magnificent Space will allow them to carry out their vital duties as the Leader of our Nation.”
“Furthermore, the Ballroom, which is being constructed on budget and ahead of schedule, is needed now. Almost all material necessary for its construction is being built and/or on its way to the site, ready for installation and erection.”
“Much of it has already been paid for, costing Hundreds of Millions of Dollars. If somebody, especially one with no standing, had a complaint — Why wasn’t it filed many months earlier, long before Construction was started?”
“The Public Record was open for all to see. Everybody knew that it was planned, and going to be built. This highly political Judge, and his illegal overreach, is out of control, and costing our Nation greatly. This is a mockery to our Court System!”
“The Ballroom is deeply important to our National Security, and no Judge can be allowed to stop this Historic and Militarily Imperative Project.”
agreed.
the left is just pissed because they cannot access the systems to infiltrate the underground facilities to bug them and whatever they have in mind.
There’re worried they’ll never find the ones that may be installed now.
THAT TOO!!
It seems so unwise to halt a huge project like that after it has begun. This should have never been controversial, but if someone had problems with it, those should have been settled before a shovel went into the ground. I can’t imagine prohibiting it now, in the middle of construction, when the donors have already spent a lot of money and it is unfinished. What would the next step be, to order it returned to its original state, which was substandard for the country’s needs? What a mess!
they’re not currently halting the underground work…just the above ground stuff…which makes no sense.

@HansMahncke
Buried in Michael Atkinson’s explanation for why he rewrote the “whistleblower” rules to allow multiple layers of hearsay is a troubling claim, namely that the requirement for firsthand knowledge was unlawful.
But saying “The statute required me to change the form from no hearsay to hearsay allowed” simply does not square with the text of 50 U.S. Code § 3033, which is silent on the issue and leaves it to the Inspector General to determine how to assess credibility.
The previous rule excluding hearsay was entirely consistent with the statute’s requirement of “credibility”, in the sense that, as in a courtroom, it could reasonably be operationalized as requiring firsthand knowledge or at least supporting documentation, neither of which Ciaramella had. He did not even have specific knowledge of times or locations, only vague generalities.
At most, Atkinson could argue he changed the policy as a matter of preference. But he cannot plausibly claim that the law required it. That is just a fake excuse on his part to deflect from the fact that he made this change just as Ciaramella walked in the door, and then covered his tracks both by failing to disclose the change and by backdating it, all of which points to him being part of the impeachment plot from day one.

Larry Kudlow: Trump’s message is the war in Iran is OVER
Kudlow, it is PRESIDENT Trump!
WHAT’S WRONG WITH HIM ? MISS THE MEMO ?
HOLY SMOKES. President Trump just went NUCLEAR on Joe Kent, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens and Megyn Kelly
“Kent is a LOSER, just like Tucker, Candace, Megyn, and the rest of them are LOSERS — You’re born that way, LOW IQ, and there’s not a damn thing they’re going to be able to do about it!“
“Who’s dumber, Tucker Carlson or Joe Kent? It’s very interesting!”
“He was really a SLEAZEBAG, and some would say, on top of it all, A LEAKER!”
“Next time, NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!”
He didn’t mention Alex Jones by name, but I think he is included in “the rest of them.” Jones has threatened to show PDJT “how the cow ate the cabbage” if he keeps it up. There’s no way PDJT is threatened by that.
Somewhat related, for Candace and all the Charlie Kirk assassin conspiracy theorists:

This will not stop the endless speculation, IMO. It will just be twisted in some way: “Anything coming out of the ATF lab is suspect,” etc.
HOLY SMOKES. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna has referred Sen. RUBEN GALLEGO (D-AZ) to Ethics in the Senate due to troubling allegations
And there is purportedly a WOMAN coming forward. Gallego was a VERY close friend of Eric Swalwell.
“There is a woman that allegedly is coming forward with attorneys, wants to go on record about an incident that occurred between the two of them at the same time, and the event with s*xual nature, allegedly.”
“I have confirmed with Senator John Thune’s chief of staff, as well as they’re linking us to their ethics that they are investigating, and we are sending all appropriate information directly to them now.”
“That’s not just that. There’s also two apparently issues of campaign finance violations.”
“Again, look, I am one member of Congress, but I’m not going to be like some of my colleagues that waited forever in a day to bring this information forward. I think that if this is happening, that it needs to be dealt with!”

“Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and Mao. All were intertwined with the rise of progressivism and all were opposed to the natural rights on which our declaration are based!”
“Progressivism is RETROGRESSIVE.”
“Many progressives expressed admiration for each of them shortly before their governments killed tens of millions of people.”
Holy based
“It was a terrible mistake to adopt progressivism’s rejection of the declaration’s vision of universal, unalienable natural rights.”

Dear Friends
Twelve thousand men were in serious trouble, despite the onset of spring in 1778. The Continental Army was already in dire straits after several brutalizing defeats through the autumn of 1777. Most lacked uniforms, and some walked barefoot, wrapping rags around their frozen feet. They were sorely in need of basic gear or victuals to survive the winter at the junction between Valley Creek and the Schuylkill River next to a remote iron forge in the middle of the Appalachians.
The place became known as Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.
Contrary to folklore, the winter of ’77-78 was not exceptionally cold (that happened the next winter at Jockey Hollow, in nearby New Jersey). Temperatures were often above freezing, and snow cover was minimal. What was brutal was the appalling lack of supplies for basic living: food, clothing and blankets. Disease was rampant despite nearly 1200 rough huts that isolated troops in tiny quarters. Sanitation was poorly followed, and hundreds of men perished from dysentery, smallpox and cholera. The concepts of germ and contagion were still poorly understood, and the crowded and malnourished troops in unventilated and cramped cabins were perfect hosts for bacteria and viruses.
Disease further exacerbated the disunity in the ranks. Many people today believe that the troops that comprised the Continental Army were predominantly English in descent. It was simply not true; there were at least 5 languages spoken commonly in camp. At least 10% of all troops were estimated to be African Americans, many of whom were promised emancipation when they signed up.
There were Frenchmen, Spaniards, Portuguese, Germans, Welsh, Scots, Irish and Scandinavians. Native Americans of Senecan and Oneidan tribes provided much needed scouting and woodcraft abilities to the force. It truly was a melting pot of great diversity. Today, we say there is strength in diversity; indeed, it is true.
But linguistic and cultural barriers proved fertile ground for the seeds of prejudice, and it grew well in the climate of disease and starvation…
