2026.05.05 Daily Thread: The World According To Trade(Bait)

A quick update on Dolly if you did not see or hear news reports yesterday. She cancelled her planned residency in Las Vegas this fall. She is slowly recovering from kidney issues, taking her meds for the infection that caused stones, and building her stamina. She is also still trying to recover from the loss of her husband. She is well enough to be working some at Dollywood, friends of ours who work there spoke with her recently. She made a few public appearances there as well. She is also working with Children’s Hospital in Knoxville, which was renamed in her honor. It will be awhile before she performs again. She is improving steadily, but if so inclined a prayer for continued healing is appreciated.

Back to the regularly scheduled programming.

To fully understand Providential Restoration we must first accept God into our minds and hearts. Comprehension of what it means to all Americans regardless of beliefs cannot be fully understood any other way, so it is pulpit time with Trade today.

GOD is the Author of our existence.

Not a god, group of gods, a supreme being(s) or a mystical something that brought space goo magically together into living cells, gases and space matter. Your intelligence, logic and common sense are failing you if you go there with your analysis. Something cannot come into existence from nothing. There is also an alpha and and omega for all creation. Your own limited existence on Earth with a planned obsolescence as a “living” organism should be enough to inform you of that truth.

Only God. The Author.

The Author has been known by many names given to Him throughout mankind’s existence.

We can all believe who and what we choose to believe, however, there is only one YHWH, one I AM. HE is the Author. He provided His Son, who then brought the Holy Spirit as a Helper for all who believe. Three in one – God – The Author. YHWH determined why and how He would redeem His creation and created beings when things went off the rails. He provided His Son to redeem His created beings. He was the final living sacrifice to satisfy the Law that He had given to His chosen people.

Life in this world is tied to the blood. No blood, no life. As a perfect human being and Son of The Author, Jesus Christ willingly shed His blood and sacrificed himself for all mankind’s sins. To accept The Son’s sacrifice and live accordingly brings life eternally in His presence. This is the miracle of all miracles, His resurrection, Easter, on which all of creation hinges. That is what delivers eternal life with Him.

To refuse to accept brings separation from God and the denial of an eternal relationship with Him. With the latter choice you go your own way and accept your fate after you breath your last on planet Earth. You have made a self determination. You have become as gods and are your own god.

The answers we seek to these type questions are sometimes as simple to understand and receive as believing the words in The Holy Bible, The Book, of which I AM is The Author. It exists as a record of historical events, miracles, inspiration, teaching, wisdom, prophecy and love from and for the people He has chosen in the past, present and future to bring Godly order and solutions to the planet. No amount of derision, manipulation, disinformation, accusations, overthinking, lies and even ignorance will change its history, meaning and message to all created beings since time began… until the Author closes The Book after all is revealed at the conclusion of its final chapter.

There is a cost to believe, to accept Christ.

Want to see a recent small, individual example of the cost of submission to God in America today? Can you imagine this happening a few decades ago?

https://www.outkick.com/sports/christian-athletes-rally-behind-jaden-ivey-after-bulls-cut-him-over-religious-beliefs

It happens in all walks of life – big and small. There is a cost. Count yourself fortunate if you are presented the opportunity that Jaden Ivey was given to witness for The Author of salvation.

We have all been given the choice to make. We are not zombies, programmed robots, or created without the ability to reason. We are created in the image of God, to have communion with Him. The Author said so in His book. There are those incapable of making such a choice due to reasons unrelated to personal beliefs. However, we can be sure that God is good.

There is nothing to hinder any believer from seeking God and having a relationship with Him anywhere anytime with The Book is available to guide the journey. Though helpful, you do not need a religious leader or denomination. That we may choose to attend church is not what saves us, that rests with our acceptance of Jesus and His sacrifice. Church is where we go to fellowship, learn, serve others, collectively worship, and strengthen our resolve for the world that challenges us. What matters most is that as believers we have the privilege of approaching The Author’s throne anytime to just have a conversation that is often called prayer. No appointment, intermediary, or special words are needed; just faith and belief in the atonement provided by His Son. Faith in Him may be the greatest blessing for ourselves as well as the Lord.

There are no secrets, nothing to hide. He already knows anyway. He just wants us to love, trust and count on Him to be there. Which leads us to want to do the same.

Sing it, Larry…

In America

A large majority of our founding fathers and colonists generally knew these things. The eternal truths were accepted as The Way. It was easy to accept because the Son of The Author used those words when describing Himself.

https://www.gotquestions.org/the-Way.html

As I discussed in American Stories, when the first Great Awakening happened beginning in the 1730’s, the population in the colonies responded with revival catching fire throughout the Protestant churches that dominated the land. The beliefs of many of the founding fathers were formed during this period. This is reflected in the text of the Declaration of Independence. They wanted the King and Parliament to know they based their collective decision to separate upon principles found in The Book. This is why they used the term, “providence” and referenced God in the document. They acknowledged that America and its people were to be divinely directed and not subject to the whims of an earthly King or government. This is why they stated in the document that it was mankind’s right and duty to throw off evil and oppression, then replace with a new government that met the needs of the people under God’s providence.

Which they did. Which is also what President Trump and all MAGA patriots are doing again today. Our nation was formed and already exists within the providence of God. However, through the decades and centuries that followed we have been led astray and lost our way at times. The past century in America has been the proverbial frog in the slow boiling pot leading to nearly becoming dinner for Satanic evil doers. The America First MAGA movement is going a different way, The Way. We see and hear it in all we support and do; a renewal of spirit and resolve to doing things well and right. This has led to this planned public event on May 17 describing who we are in America’s 250th year.

https://freedom250.org/celebration/rededicate-250-a-national-jubilee-of-prayer-praise-and-thanksgiving

Yes, this is Providential Restoration. We are in the midst of a restoration of our relationship with The Author that returns us to being fully under His care and direction. Our national prodigal son wanderings are ending. In so doing the United States of America will provide essential leadership in God’s creation.

Conclusion

You can observe life around you as well as around the world and know that there is God. Why spend your time doing the Don Quixote by fighting the endless windmills of life? Instead, sit a spell with The Author of the Book and experience the fulfillment of your mind, heart and soul. The blessing will blow away anything you can achieve or receive from this world. It will equip you to handle life in a way that brings glory to The Author. When it is your turn for the meet up with Him, you will already have a loving relationship.

Remember Wolf’s site rules. Note and label all AI. Please be kind to one another, we are all in this together. May God richly bless America and all of you.

Before all things and people – In God We Trust. Also, trust Trump and the plan.

Freedom 250 Invites All Americans to Come Together in Prayer and Worship Ahead of the Nation’s 250th Birthday

On Sunday, May 17, 2026, the National Mall will be the scene of a historic gathering as Americans of every background across the country prepare for the nation’s 250th birthday with Scripture, testimony, prayer, and rededication of our country as One Nation to God. From morning fellowship in front of the U.S. Capitol to an evening filled with music anchored at the main stage on 12th Street, Rededicate 250 will be rooted in giving thanks for God’s presence in our national life throughout 250 years of American history and asking for his guidance for the next 250. Register your church to join all 50 states in prayer for America on this historic day.

The Left is going to hate this, but the idea of Christians voicing their faith and rededicating the country as One Nation Under God is exactly what we need right now.

I was thinking the same.

TheseTruths

Tucker tells the NYT that President Trump puts a literal “spell” on people to “weaken them and make them compliant” and it might be “supernatural.”

Trump’s influence couldn’t result from force of character or intellect or anything like that. 🤔

In my experience, “spells” come from the occult and definitely have a negative connotation, so what Tucker is saying is an egregious character smear, and is evil. He might as well say that Trump’s successes come from the netherworld.

scott467

Tucker is quickly sliding into irrelevance, completely self-inflicted and deserved.

The Left has always hated him, and now he has made himself persona non grata with Trump supporters.

That leaves a vanishingly small audience for whatever he’s peddling.

It certainly is a bizarre development.

Speaking of casting spells….

Aubergine

Judging from what I have observed in the last year or so, this is projection.

Tucker (and Candace Owens) both appear to be experimenting with the occult. Maybe they’ve gone all-in, I don’t know. But it is very dangerous.

What I do know is, no “spell” can affect or damage a believer:

Isaiah 54:17

No weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed, and you shall refute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD and their vindication from me, declares the LORD.”

Psalm 91:1-3  

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.

1John 5:18

We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.

Nancy Mace:

The results of my subpoena of Congress’s sexual harassment slush fund are in.

Nine members. One thousand pages.

All records prior to 2004 were destroyed – which tells you everything you need to know about how long this has been buried.

We are reviewing every page. We will name all nine. We will release the full 1,000 pages – once we confirm that personally identifiable information of victims and witnesses has been properly redacted.

Accountability is not a threat. It is a promise.

I applaud the effort unless it is taking valuable work time from more important issues.

I can’t get excited about this. Only nine people over 22 years? I bet a lot of them are not in Congress anymore and are not influencing current events. Their names might not be familiar except to their local people. If there is a bombshell that will shake up the current political landscape, I will be surprised.

I was looking for an update on the shooting suspect from the incident on Monday near the White House.

Brave only returned info on the WH Correspondent’s Dinner shooter, so I specified the shooting on Monday, and this was the exchange (boldface mine):

……………………………………
Me: Not the WH Correspondent’s dinner shooting, the NEW shooting today, May 4th.

Brave A.I.: The suspect in the May 4, 2026, shooting near the White House was a 45-year-old white man with past residency in Maryland and Texas, according to a law enforcement source. He was shot in the torso by Secret Service officers after opening fire on them near the Washington Monument and is in stable condition at a local hospital.

The individual had a firearm and fled when approached by officers, prompting an exchange of gunfire. His motives and any potential connection to President Donald Trump remain under investigation.

.

Me: Why is he identified as a ‘white man’, but when the suspect is black, it’s like pulling teeth to find that out? Is that bias programmed into the A.I., or does it manifest via other means?

Brave A.I.: The identification of a suspect as a “white man” in media and law enforcement reports is based on official descriptions used for public awareness and suspect identification.

However, research indicates a pattern in media reporting where the race of white suspects is mentioned more frequently and earlier in articles compared to Black or Hispanic suspects.

A 2026 analysis of major U.S. newspapers found that the race of white homicide suspects was mentioned in about 25% of articles, compared to only 6% for Black suspects and 3% for Hispanic suspects. Post-2020, this disparity widened, with white suspects’ race being reported up to seven times more often

This selective reporting is not due to AI bias, but reflects editorial choices in journalism.

Studies show that when race is mentioned for white suspects, it often appears in the headline or opening paragraphs, while for Black suspects, it is frequently buried later or omitted.

This pattern suggests a media tendency to emphasize race in ways that may align with broader social narratives, rather than a consistent factual reporting standard.
…………………………………….
.

That’s quite an admission.

patfrederick

I want the “W” in white capitalized. if you’re going to capitalize Black, White should also be capitalized. why is brave not doing that? Hispanic is capitalized.

kalbokalbs

Another question Scott may ask Brave AI. Why lower case w for White people. Uppercase B forBlacks.

patfrederick

love to see that answer!

kalbokalbs

You got it. Braves line of pretzel twisting bullshit…

The primary reason for capitalizing Black but not white in many style guides (such as the Associated Press and The New York Times) is that Black is viewed as a proper noun denoting a shared racial, ethnic, or cultural identity, whereas white is traditionally treated as a descriptor of skin color. 

  • Cultural Identity vs. Descriptor: Advocates for capitalizing Black argue it recognizes a distinct cultural heritage and community identity, similar to how Asian or American are capitalized. 
  •  In contrast, white has historically been used as an adjective for physical appearance rather than a specific cultural noun.
  • Association with White Supremacy: Some media organizations hesitate to capitalize White because the term has been adopted by white supremacist groups to denote racial pride and dominance. 
  •  Capitalizing white risks inadvertently legitimizing these extremist ideologies. 
  • Racial Neutrality: Historically, whiteness has often functioned as an invisible, default racial identity in Western societies. 
  •  Keeping it lowercase reinforces the perception of racial neutrality, whereas capitalizing Black highlights the specific historical and social experiences of Black people. 

However, this convention is evolving. Some organizations, including the MacArthur Foundation and the Center for the Study of Social Policy, now capitalize White to treat all racial identities equally and to acknowledge “Whiteness” as a racial identity with historical power dynamics. 
 The Chicago Manual of Style (17th edition) and the APA also recommend capitalizing both Black and White.

TheseTruths

Black is viewed as a proper noun denoting a shared racial, ethnic, or cultural identity, whereas white is traditionally treated as a descriptor of skin color.

That is not equal treatment. I’m glad some organizations are changing it.

kalbokalbs

Yes.

Brave started out with DEI, PC nonsense. GIGO. IMO.

The two closing paragraphs were balanced.

Gail Combs

“…denoting a shared racial, ethnic, or cultural identity,…”

Which is a complete crock of BULL SCHIFF! Blacks Africans are more genetically diverse than other eaces and they also have a very divers set of cultures.

New study confirms that Africans are the most genetically diverse people on Earth.

Geneticists have known for some time that Africans are highly genetically diverse. The claim has even been made that East Africans are more genetically different from West Africans than Europeans are from Asians..

From OT, and interesting development:

DOJ and Dept of Agriculture Announce Antitrust Investigations on Meat Price Fixing and Protein Price Controls
May 4, 2026

SD: “Earlier today, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, and Director of Trade and Manufacturing Peter Navarro held a press conference on antitrust investigations and meatpacking operations.

AAG Todd Blanche noted the DOJ is seeking information from whistleblowers inside the meat industry as they investigate price controls and price fixing from multinational agriculture conglomerates.
.

.

WASHINGTON – The Justice Department confirmed its active investigation of potential antitrust violations in U.S. cattle and beef markets, reviewing more than 3 million documents and interviewing industry participants as federal officials scrutinize whether highly concentrated meatpacking power has contributed to high beef prices.

The four largest beef processors control more than 85% of the U.S. processing market — half of which are Brazilian-owned — Trump administration officials noted at a Monday news conference, where acting Attorney General Todd Blanche urged whistleblowers to capitalize on turning in bad actors who are contributing to jacking up meat prices on Americans.

“If the information you provide helps us secure a criminal penalty in excess of $1 million, you can be entitled to recover and receive 15-30% of the money that we recover,” Blanche said, describing the DOJ fraud whistleblower rewards program. He urged ranchers, purchasers, processors and others to report possible price-fixing, bid-rigging, market allocation or procurement fraud.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins tied the probe to broader concerns about food security and shrinking domestic cattle supplies, saying the U.S. had about 86.2 million head of cattle and calves as of Jan. 1 — “the lowest since the 1950s.” (read more)

Democrat and global leftists spent decade shouting about cows and cattle as a major source of global warming via flatulence. Being anti-cows, anti-milk, anti-beef, and anti-ranching became a major focus of the global ‘Build Back Better’ net-zero emission agenda.

Cattle ranching and dairy farming were viewed as easy targets for investment controls, while Bill Gates and the climate groups promoted nut milks, soy milks, milk alternatives, bugs, crickets and fake meat. This activity is part of the current consequences.”

Are the mainstream media and anti-beef activists correct in their accusations that cattle are a major contributor to climate change? Here’s a look at the facts.

Beef Magazine on cow farts or burps

By Sara Place, Ph.D.
Which end of the cow is responsible for most of its methane? Let’s face it: anyone with a coin has a 50-50 chance of getting that right. But based on much of what I’ve read over the years, many mainstream journalists get it terribly wrong. No, it’s not cattle flatulence that is the source of most of the methane gas from cattle. It’s eructation – or burps.
Greenhouse gases from beef cattle production have come under increased scrutiny in the past few months. A seemingly endless series of reports and articles are driving a narrative that eating less meat is a key answer to climate change. Knowing the facts is important in this debate, which isn’t going away any time soon.

As the senior director for sustainability research at NCBA, a contractor for the Beef Checkoff, answering questions about greenhouse gases and cattle is part of my job. While I’m an animal scientist, not a climate scientist, I do have a unique and pertinent background in this field, conducting research where I measured methane emissions directly from cattle. It is true that cattle produce methane, a greenhouse gas 28 times more potent at trapping heat than carbon dioxide, but it’s unlikely methane from U.S. cattle has been a factor in increased global average temperatures in the past few decades.

Related:Eliminating cattle production will not solve climate change
This is the core message of a new fact sheet available from the beef checkoff’s sustainability research program. In the fact sheet, C. Alan Rotz, Ph.D., USDA-Agricultural Research Service, and Alexander Hristov, Ph.D., Pennsylvania State University, explain how methane from ruminant animals like cattle is a part of a natural carbon cycle that is different from methane from fossil sources like natural gas.
Cattle consume carbohydrates in plants like native grasses and corn grain. These carbohydrates contain carbon, the fundamental element of all living things, which is derived from carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere through photosynthesis.
When cattle eat carbohydrates, some of the carbon gets converted to CO2and methane (CH4) by the rumen microbes. About once a minute, a series of rumen contractions releases this gas mixture from the animal’s mouth in a process called eructation, or more simply, belching. If this natural belching process doesn’t occur, cattle can suffer from bloat.
When the methane cattle release enters the atmosphere, it does have an effect of trapping heat energy. However, methane doesn’t stick around very long in the atmosphere.
Over the course of a decade, the methane emitted from a cow will be transformed through a series of photochemical reactions to carbon dioxide. That carbon dioxide can then again be taken up by plants, and the cycle repeats.
Related:Researchers conclude livestock have no detectable effect on climate
Research from Oxford University demonstrates that while methane is potent at trapping heat, if the emissions from a cattle herd are steady, the concentration of methane due to that cattle herd will not increase in the atmosphere. Ultimately, this is representative of the cattle situation in the United States and makes it difficult to point to methane from U.S. cattle as a key driver in increasing methane concentrations in the atmosphere or a key contributor to warming temperatures.

Globally, the situation may be different, as based on available information from the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, it seems the global cattle herd has expanded. However, there are many methane sources that may explain the rising concentrations in the atmosphere, from other agricultural sources like rice cultivation to natural sources like wetlands. Another possibility is the increase in natural gas production and use (natural gas is mostly methane gas), and methane leaks from other fossil fuel production systems.

Importantly, carbon in fossil fuels is different than the carbon dioxide and methane that cattle emit, because it is not part of the natural carbon cycle. Fossil fuels are old photosynthetic carbon mostly from plants and algae from 100 to 200 million years ago.

When that carbon is released during the combustion of fossil fuels, the carbon dioxide emitted represents new carbon entering the system. Plants and the oceans have taken up some of this new carbon, but the rest has accumulated in the atmosphere; hence, the increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide we have measured since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
comment image?width=1280&auto=webp&quality=80&disable=upscale
Figure 1. Simplified carbon cycle illustrating how methane (CH4) carbon is not additive to the atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) as compared to fossil fuel combustion. If methane emissions are constant and in balance with the rate of photochemical oxidation, methane concentrations will not increase in the atmosphere.

None of this is to say that we should ignore methane emissions from cattle. As Drs. Rotz and Hristov highlight in their fact sheet, mitigating methane emissions can mean improved feed efficiency of cattle as methane represents a loss of feed energy. Feeding concentrates, fats, ionophores, and new feed additives being developed can all mitigate methane emissions. Depending on the future, there may be the potential for carbon credits or other payment options for cutting methane emissions from cattle.
The methane cycle is complex. But, it’s critical to understand. Fifty-six percent of the greenhouse gas emissions associated with U.S. beef cattle production is the methane cattle naturally belch. Since it’s unlikely these emissions are driving warming, clearly communicating that a carbon footprint doesn’t always translate into climate change is a focus of the Beef Checkoff Program.

As Drs. Rotz and Hristov conclude, “Although cattle in the United States are not contributing to the increase in global warming and related climate change we are experiencing, they may be part of the solution.”

When I first found out that nobody really knows what vowels belong in YHWH, I was just stunned. We could be saying it completely wrong.

My suspicion is, the personal name of God, YHWH, is probably unpronounceable by a human voice. We’ll be able to speak His name properly when we are in Heaven.

When we’re in Heaven, we won’t care how to say it.

I think it’s considered unpronounceable by the Jews, perhaps why they write G-d. In English it is often called Yahweh or sometimes Jehovah, iirc.

Epic Waters, a taxpayer funded water park in Grand Prairie Texas plan to host a “muslim only” day.

Epic Waters in Grand Prairie, Texas drew outrage this week as it released fliers for the June 1 event, which will demand a ‘modest dress code’ and serve only Halal-slaughtered meat. 
Posters for the event say it will be ‘for Muslims only’ to create a ‘family-friendly environment’, with tickets starting at $55 each. 
The waterpark’s website notes that men and women will not be separated during the event, but attendees are told to ‘uphold Islamic etiquette’ by ‘lowering the gaze’ throughout the day. 
‘Please follow the event’s modest dress code, and practice ḥayāʾ (modesty) through respectful behavior,’ the event says. 
All attendees are ‘expected to dress in accordance with Islamic values’, and the waterpark says all swimwear must meet Muslim guidelines. 
The event was criticized across social media, with many questioning if a taxpayer-funded space is allowed to exclude certain demographics from its events. 
Conservative commentator and radio host Dana Loesch led the backlash, questioning: ‘How is a taxpayer-funded, city-owned entity allowed to discriminate against non-Muslims at a public water park?’

Grand Prarie City should sue the water park.

Paging Governor Abbott, AG Paxton, Wannabe AG Chip Roy for comment.

agreed. even when a company holds a “Lowe’s Day” (for example) others can still attend the park and while there may be a designated picnic area just for Lowe’s employees and families, they have to maintain a space for the public. at least in all “company” event i’ve been to.

If they were approached by islamic reps to offer this and they accepted that’s bad enough but if they came up with this on their own that’s even worse.

Muslim “guidelines” for swimwear:
Females, pre-pubescent:: long-sleeve top + swim skort + leggings

Update on the shooting in Edmonds, Ok.
Typical for this type of event and perpetrators and victims…the news is blank on “finding” the shooter. Was there really only one? Doubt it.
Now to the real issue…blaming the campground. Yep, the campground that’s operated on a premise of trust, park rules and years with no trouble……….of course they must be to blame.

Yesterday, the reports were there were THREE shooters. What the heck?

And you know what? We have campgrounds like that all over Montana. You know what we don’t have? I’ll give you three guesses, and the first two don’t count!

I can certainly believe there were three shooters. It was a bunch of young folks and some, given the shooting at Trump lately and the priming by the media, were probably ‘NAZI HUNTING’ OR it could be rival gangs.

Of course we will never get the straight story.

mollypitcher5

Because they cannot speak plainly about it. They will dick around until people lose interest.
Parents of black teens should already be aware that any gathering is the scene of a likely gunfight and next up..why allow your kids to go “camping” or a night party at a campground.

Gail Combs

The incident occurred during an unsanctioned party that began after dark and was advertised across multiple social media platforms, drawing a large crowd of young adults from across the metro area. The event was not permitted for a reserved gathering,” the news release said…

He was asked if he thought it would have been safer if the group had a permit to be there or if city and park staffers knew people would be at the pavilion.

“They would have been told ‘no’ because we don’t permit it after a certain time of day,” Nash said.

As of Monday night, KOCO had not been told if there are any fatalities because of this. At last check, there were three victims in critical condition.

My daughter, that lives in Edmond, says the whole park is locked up after hours. If so, who let all the cars in? It was a very well planned event complete with fliers being posted.

UN Running Out of Cash, Trump Unmoved
Details at the link. I couldn’t help it; the absurdity of this made me laugh:

The crisis is compounded by a structural rule requiring the UN to return unspent budget funds to member states even when those funds were never collected in the first place. In early 2026, the UN was forced to return $227 million it had never received, with an additional $72 million offset against arrears. Guterres described this as a “Kafkaesque cycle, expected to give back cash that does not exist.”

Leverage (emphasis mine):

The United States is the dominant factor. Historically the UN’s largest contributor at 22 percent of the regular and peacekeeping budgets, roughly $820 million per year, the U.S. paid no dues at all in 2025 and accounts for approximately 95 percent of all unpaid contributions currently owed. The total U.S. debt stands at $2.2 billion to the regular operating budget, $767 million for 2026 and the remainder from 2025, plus a separate $1.8 billion owed for peacekeeping operations and $528 million for past peacekeeping missions…

In mid-February 2026, the U.S. made a first partial payment toward its debt, which a UN spokesperson confirmed goes toward past dues on the regular budget. As of early May 2026, the U.S. has paid approximately $160 million of the more than $4 billion it owes across regular and peacekeeping budgets combined. Guterres has stated that the outstanding assessed contributions are “non-negotiable,” a mandatory legal obligation of membership, and has stressed that non-payment and reform are two distinct issues. A UN spokesperson was blunter: “when it comes to paying, it’s now or never.”

The Trump administration frames its position as leverage. U.S. Ambassador Mike Waltz told Congress the UN has “drifted from its core mission of peacemaking” and confirmed the administration has conditioned payment on reform:We’ve withheldthis year. We haven’t paid any, and my first meeting with the Secretary-General was, ‘here are the reforms that we need to see before you start talking about taxpayer dollars.’” Waltz argued the organization needs to be “cut up” and reformed before U.S. money flows again, pointing out that seven separate UN agencies work on climate alone…

I don’t know what benefits the U.S. gets from NATO; certainly not $4 billion worth.

Gail Combs

It is the United Nations not NATO even though both are as useful as tits on a boar.

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 Tuesday, May 5, 2026

John 1:16

“And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.”

King James Version (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR JOHN 1:16

The apostle and evangelist, John, seems to have been the youngest of the twelve. He was especially favoured with our Lord’s regard and confidence, so as to be spoken of as the disciple whom Jesus loved. He was very sincerely attached to his Master. He exercised his ministry at Jerusalem with much success, and outlived the destruction of that city, agreeably to Christ’s prediction, ch. #21:22|. History relates that after the death of Christ’s mother, John resided chiefly at Ephesus. Towards the close of Domitian’s reign he was banished to the isle of Patmos, where he wrote his Revelation. On the accession of Nerva, he was set at liberty, and returned to Ephesus, where it is thought he wrote his Gospel and Epistles, about A. D. 97, and died soon after. The design of this Gospel appears to be to convey to the Christian world, just notions of the real nature, office, and character of that Divine Teacher, who came to instruct and to redeem mankind. For this purpose, John was directed to select for his narrative, those passages of our Saviour’s life, which most clearly displayed his Divine power and authority; and those of his discourses, in which he spake most plainly of his own nature, and of the power of his death, as an atonement for the sins of the world. By omitting, or only briefly mentioning, the events recorded by the other evangelists, John gave testimony that their narratives are true, and left room for the doctrinal statements already mentioned, and for particulars omitted in the other Gospels, many of which are exceedingly important.The Divinity of Christ. (1-5) His Divine and human nature. (6-14) John the Baptist’s testimony to Christ. (15-18) John’s public testimony concerning Christ. (19-28) Other testimonies of John concerning Christ. (29-36) Andrew and another disciple follow Jesus. (37-42) Philip and Nathanael called. (43-51)

15-18 As to the order of time and entrance on his work, Christ came after John, but in every other way he was before him. The expression clearly shows that Jesus had existence before he appeared on earth as man. All fulness dwells in him, from which alone fallen sinners have, and shall receive, by faith, all that renders them wise, strong, holy, useful, and happy. Our receivings by Christ are all summed up in this one word, grace; we have received “even grace,” a gift so great, so rich, so invaluable; the good will of God towards us, and the good work of God in us. The law of God is holy, just, and good; and we should make the proper use of it. But we cannot derive from it pardon, righteousness, or strength. It teaches us to adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour, but it cannot supply the place of that doctrine. As no mercy comes from God to sinners but through Jesus Christ, no man can come to the Father but by him; no man can know God, except as he is made known in the only begotten and beloved Son.

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.

Eating Eggs Regularly May Significantly Slash Alzheimer’s Risk

Research Shows That Avoiding Eggs Entirely Linked To 22% Higher Risk Of Memory-Stealing Disease

In A Nutshell

• People who ate eggs regularly had lower Alzheimer’s diagnosis rates over 15 years.

• The lowest risk appeared in those eating eggs five or more times per week.

• Eggs provide nutrients linked to brain health, including choline and vitamin B12.

• The study shows a connection, not proof that eggs prevent Alzheimer’s disease.

The study, published in The Journal of Nutrition, drew on data from the Adventist Health Study-2, a long-running research project that enrolled more than 96,000 members of the Seventh-day Adventist church across all 50 states between 2002 and 2007. That population is especially useful for studying diet because Adventists have a wide range of eating habits, from strict vegans who never touch an egg to omnivores who eat them daily. By linking participants’ dietary records with Medicare claims data, researchers could track who eventually received a clinical Alzheimer’s diagnosis through the medical system rather than relying on self-reported memory problems…

Now do bacon 🥓 , LOL.

The Medicaid Money Trail Leads Somewhere You Won’t Like — And The Daily Wire Has Receipts

The enormous complex pictured below is 6161 Busch Boulevard. Its lack of windows would be a problem for most office buildings, but there is almost no one in this one. What’s inside is 94 different companies signed up to bill Medicaid, each with a tiny office, often marked with a sheet of paper proclaiming some generic company name ending in “Home Health LLC” — and sometimes another piece of paper claiming the employees had just stepped out for a break.
This building alone billed taxpayers $66 million in the span of a few years, the records show.

The amount of fraud everywhere is staggering. I don’t remember seeing reports like this before, except maybe one every now and then. This must be the key:

DOGE published a massive trove of data in February that, for the first time, lets the public see what companies are billing Medicaid for. For decades, the payouts have been shrouded in secrecy.

I hope someone is working to stop this.

For decades, the payouts have been shrouded in secrecy.

The reason they have been ‘ shrouded in secrecy’ is because the politicians have been getting kickbacks.

45 Democratic Senators Call for Changing Constitution by Administrative Fiat
Steve Sailer • December 18, 2024 • 100 Words • 310 Comments

This is one of the funnier and crazier Democrat ploys: Senator Gillibrand (D-NY) wants to change the Constitution by having the National Archivist type the failed feminist Equal Rights Amendment, whose time limit to be ratified was up 42 years ago, into her Official Copy of the United States Constitution. Or something.

44 other Senators joined Gillibrand’s call.

But yesterday the National Archivist, Colleen Shogan, said that No, she wasn’t going to do that, that that’s not the way the Constitution works.

Senator Gillibrand is really mad at Ms. Shogan for “wrongfully inserting herself into a clear constitutional process:”

I want to tell you the story of a young woman who you have probably never heard of. Her name is Mary Anne. She was born on a remote island in Scotland, where life was harsh and unforgiving.

On May 2, 1930, when she was 18 years old, she got on a boat headed for Ellis Island to start a new life. She arrived here 11 days later.

 She wasn’t chasing fame, riches, or power. She came for the unique opportunity that America offered. Her sister was already here and had found a job as a maid. So, Mary Anne MacLeod joined her, listing her occupation as “domestic” on her Ellis Island immigration papers.

She came to America knowing that she would clean the houses and toilets of the wealthy families in New York. She and her sister lived and worked hard through the worst days of the Depression. And she persevered.

Six years later, she married a man named Fred. He was the son of German immigrants. Then In 1942, she became a citizen.

Mary and Fred would end up having five children: two daughters and three sons.

 One of those sons, they named Donald.

A woman who came here as a maid, the lowest of jobs, would raise a son who would change the very skyline that greeted his mother when she arrived at Ellis Island.

After that, he would become the 45th and 47th President of the United States.

There is no other country in the world where a woman can arrive with nothing, and in ONE generation, her son would lead the entire world.

For America’s 250th anniversary, I wanted to present President Trump with this painting I did, and then I ran out of time and talent. So, I asked a good friend of mine, Mike Malm, to help me finish it. This is how I envisioned her coming into the United States.

Mary Anne MacLeod Trump should be a household name. Her story is everything that is great about America.

This is absolutely wonderful. Make sure to read the whole thing:

Full text:

“Once upon a time there was a widow. Her husband was brilliant, world renowned in his field. He had chosen her because he thought the blue-eyed blond beauty was even more brilliant than he was and they worked side by side to accomplish extraordinary things, even though publicly, he received much of the credit. After his tragic, sudden death she was left to raise their two children and also to continue his work, even taking over his professional position, traveling and appearing at conferences. During this time the tide of public opinion turned against her. Considered thoroughly unlikable she was met with media slander and mob attacks, blamed for her work being the cause of her husband’s death, accused of being a Jew and told to go home. Instead she poured her energies into doing more good than ever before, including in the lives of her two children who went on to become famously accomplished themselves. Her name was Marie Curie. Had she stayed home after her husband’s death she wouldn’t have won a second Nobel Peace Prize, nor developed mobile radiology units (Petite Curies) during WW1 which saw over a million soldiers saving hundreds of thousands lives and needless amputations, nor would she have established 2 international scientific research centers responsible for making huge strides in nuclear physics, medical research, and the treatment of cancer. Her two daughters followed in her footsteps, one going on to win a Nobel Peace Prize and the other achieving great success in journalism and diplomacy. Not all women are called to be widows like Marie Curie. But when they are, there is no more obvious fool in the world than those who seek to persecute them.”

Another blatant attempt at vote buying. Talib introduces Unhoused person Bill of Rights–it’s as stupid as it sounds.
FTA
The “Unhoused Persons Bill of Rights” calls for government-led intervention to end homelessness over the next three years and introduces more than a dozen protections for homeless people.
If passed, Tlaib‘s legislation would include freedom of movement for homeless people in public spaces, affordable housing, “livable” wages, universal healthcare and panhandling.
Under the resolution, homeless individuals would have the “right to uninhibited access” to public parks, transportation, facilities, sidewalks, buildings, restrooms and other spaces — meaning they could legally set up camp in such public spaces.
The homeless population would also be given the right to internet access and the necessary technology to achieve that.
A spokesperson for Tlaib did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment regarding how that provision would work in practice.
While the resolution is nonbinding, meaning it does not carry the force of law, Tlaib’s recommendations indicate how the left could push for changes to homeless policy if Democrats retake power in Washington after the 2026 midterms.
Tlaib’s proposal would, however, grant the homeless population “freedom from harassment” by law enforcement, private businesses, property owners and “housed residents.”
Specifically, homeless individuals would be given protections against “banishment” from private property, which the Michigan Democrat’s measure characterizes as a violation of an individual’s “fundamental civil and human rights.”

If a politician wants to really accomplish something for the citizens it is when their party is in the majority. When the proposal comes when there is no chance of its passage it is just politics without a down side. Talib can run on her compassionate concern for the homeless without having to actually do anything. Vote for my good intentions, and all that.

On the other side when your party is in the majority and you still do nothing then it can safely be assumed that you are just collecting a paycheck.

BREAKING: FBI Has Reportedly Launched a Criminal Probe into Fauci’s Bat Virus Mad Scientist Vincent Munster for Smuggling Deadly Pathogen Samples from Africa

The FBI has reportedly launched a criminal investigation into NIH virologist Vincent Munster, one of Anthony Fauci’s top bat coronavirus researchers at the high-security Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton, Montana, after he and a colleague were caught smuggling dangerous pathogen samples.

The samples Munster and his colleague were caught with included monkeypox virus, from the Democratic Republic of Congo.

According to an explosive exclusive report from Paul Thacker, Munster and NIH lab scientist Claude Kwe Yinda were stopped during airport security screening upon their return from Africa earlier this year.

Thacker’s report comes a day after White Coat Waste first posted on X that Munster had been removed from the HHS employee directory and was reportedly suspended.

According to the report, authorities discovered a hard-shelled protective case in their luggage containing undeclared human pathogen samples collected from patients.

Monkeypox virus is classified by the Department of Health and Human Services as a “select agent” that poses a severe threat to public safety and requires strict permitting, inactivation, and shipping protocols…

HHS has referred all questions about the case to the FBI, which is actively investigating.

…Both Munster and Yinda have been placed on administrative leave, and their contact information has been scrubbed from the official HHS employee directory

Much more at the link. These people were literally out of control.

Why have they not been placed in a CAGE?!?

You can bet your @ss I would be, if I had tried to smuggle MONKEY POX into the United States.

So why aren’t Dr. Frankenmunster and his creepy assistant Igoryinda in some deep dark dungeon right now, on a table, with a giant pendulum swinging back and forth over them?

That’s a suspenseful scene. I recognized John Kerr, the lieutenant in “South Pacific,” as the guy strapped to the table.

As to why those people aren’t in a dungeon yet, this is only a guess: that maybe there are issues that complicate how they get prosecuted. Maybe there is leverage to be used to get them to talk, or other issues not related to the smuggling that the feds want to nail them on but they have to be careful how they do it so the opportunity is not wasted…etc.

I know, there’s always a dozen reasons not to deliver justice the old fashioned way, all of them having to do with the wymynization of men.

Reminds me of this video from Russia, where men still act like men, they haven’t been castrated by Western feminism.

The faster they jump to prosecute, the more of a risk of losing they take. By gathering evidence and preparing, they help insure getting a finding of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

Edgar Allen Poe, “The Pit and the Pendulum.”

A great read, among many others of the horror genre, when there weren’t any electronics, so that the readers were enthralled by the idea of the supernatural.

He was a talented story-teller, with all the techniques as Hitchcock employed.

Very suspenseful, and very craftily written…

scott467

I read the books (I remember the line ‘quoth the Raven’) and watched the old Vincent Price movies when I was a kid 😁

One of the few things my dad read to us kids back in the day was some eerie Poe! Pit & the Pendulum & The Raven are two I still recall, oh & the Telltale Heart, iirc.

I found a better website tool to remove timestamps from youtoob transcripts. The most recent one I posted a week or so ago removed the numerals, but it left the “minutes, seconds” over and over again, which I had to manually remove.

Pretty much defeating the purpose.

This website has a two or three step process that removes the numerals, the “minutes, seconds” AND then a 3rd step removes all the line breaks:

https://ashley-cameron.com/yt/remove-timestamps/

Sir ES

Why is it useful to delete YT timestamps?

There must be a benefit, but it eludes me at present…

scott467

If you want to copy and save (or post) a section of text from a video, it’s a real pain in the backside to go through and remove all the time-stamps.

For a long time, you could toggle the time-stamps on or off before copying text, but sometime in the last couple months, Goog-toob removed the option to toggle them off, which means having to remove them manually, if you want to save any text from a transcript of a yootoob video.

Ex-NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani out of coma, talking and alert after hospital scare: close pal

Ex-New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani emerged from a coma Monday and was talking and alert as he remained hospitalized in Florida while recovering from pneumonia, Big Apple billionaire pal John Catsimatidis said.

Catsimatidis said he received the uplifting news from a close former aide to the 81-year-old ex-“America’s mayor’’ Monday afternoon.

“He’s talking, he’s alert. To me, that’s great news,’’ the supermarket and media mogul told reporters…

The illness is tied to a condition stemming from Giuliani’s experience as mayor during the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, the rep said.

“On September 11th, Mayor Giuliani ran toward the towers to help those in need, which led to a restrictive airway disease diagnosis,” the spokesman said.

“This disease adds complications to any emerging respiratory issue, and the virus quickly overwhelmed his body, requiring mechanical ventilation to maintain his blood pressure.”

From OT:

Canadian Prime Minister is Playing a Very Dangerous Game
May 5, 2026 

SD: “Anyone who has ever dealt with a toxic narcissist understands the psychology behind their manipulative language, words and intents. What Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is doing here is very dangerous, particularly for the Canadian people.

After a year of increased provocative language intended to confront President Trump for U.S. nationalist policy changes on economics, trade and security, Prime Minister Carney travelled to Europe where he again delivered strong remarks saying that Europe is now the center of the “rules based international order,” the western government control mechanisms that have maintained economic and security relationships for the past one-hundred years.

Essentially, Carney, after saying the USA was no longer a reliable or obedient partner, emphasized the opposition to state nationalism must come from a collective decision to retain the old geopolitical structures. President Trump must be opposed, and Europe -according to Carney- represents the assembly that will not permit state government nationalism (sovereignty) to replace their long-constructed globalist systems.

Today, Prime Minister Carney faced questions about those remarks. I don’t want to influence the audience, but with the context in mind, watch and listen closely to his response. [Prompted]
.

.

[NOTE: The question comes from the Toronto Star, the only ‘conservative’ media outlet permitted under the rules of the Canadian regime to ask questions. All other outlets who might challenge the government viewpoints are strictly controlled and not permitted audience.]

Notice how Carney divides the world of opposition to President Trump, indicating the 5-Eyes nations of Canada, Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand are in opposition to Trump and in alignment with the old control mechanisms. Adding to this grouping, Carney pulls in the entire European continent and boldly proclaims his position as lead diplomat and representative for their effort against the USA.

This is a very dangerous game that Prime Minister Carney is choosing to play here. This is the behavior of a person who is toxically narcissistic and prepared to claim victim status as soon as his target hits back. Carney has carefully and purposefully deceived his domestic audience, and things are about to get very ugly.

I must say something of a personal frustration….

In the bigger picture, expanding on the ancillary aspects that pertain to the geopolitical landscape that surrounds us, Carney is able to push this line this far because we have internal friction driven by people like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens and other short-sighted “influencers, who do not recognize the scale of the moment.

President Trump is standing up to a globalist system that weakened the United States over several generations. The same voices who understand how toxic the United Nations, NATO, USAID and other international influences are to what remains of U.S. sovereignty, are the same voices attempting to divide Trump’s base of support while our President battles multinational influence operations; all because they have the same traits as Mark Carney underpinning their psychology.

You either affix your bayonet against these forces, or in our lifetime there will be nothing left to fight over.”

Carney used to chair the Bank of England. And it’s my present take on him that he is intentionally destroying Canada, piece by piece.

JUSTICE SAMUEL ALITO HAS HAD IT WITH KETANJI BROWN JACKSON

Joined by Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch, Alito EVISCERATED Jackson for her combative and “insulting” dissent:

“Instead the dissent offers 2 reasons for its proposed course of action. One is TRIVIAL at best, and the other is BASELESS and INSULTING.”

“The dissent in this suit levels charges that cannot go unanswered. The dissent would require that the 2026 Congressional elections in Louisiana be held under a map that is unconstitutional.”

“The dissent does not claim that it is now too late for the state legislature or the District Court to adopt a new map that complies with the Constitution.”

“Nor does the dissent assert that it is not feasible for the elections to be held under such a map.”

She just got put in her place!

Stop noticing Michael!

The parasitic criminal class that really controls this country is obviously rushing in an almost panicked manner to install all the architecture for the surveillance prison state they have planned for everyone.

Massive data centers being pushed on communities left and right, military grade surveillance cameras popping up everywhere and the whole globally coordinated digital ID push. Nobody asked for any of this and nobody wants it, yet it’s all happening at lightning speed with zero public input.

scott467

What do the A.I. datacenters have to do with the surveillance state?

And why is DJT’s Civil Rights division allowing a surveillance state with cameras everywhere and digital ID?

Sadly, I won’t be able to participate in the digital ID, on account of not using a personal tracking device for similar reasons.

A Blessed Nation

In faith we claim our nation blest,
For God is our Lord by faith confessed.
He grants us life and liberty,
Endowed by Him, from sea to sea.

Our Declaration boldly speaks,
Of rights from our Creator’s keeps.
“In God We Trust” our coins proclaim,
And Washington gave thanks by name.

With Lincoln’s words in troubled hour,
He sought the Lord’s redeeming power.
Our founders knelt on bended knee,
And pledged their cause to Deity.

Through trials fierce and battles won,
His hand has led us, every one.
From wilderness to fruitful plain,
Abundant mercy, grace, and gain.

He raised us up when storms drew near,
And dried our eyes when grief was drear.
Our fields have bloomed, our cities stood,
Sustained by His unfailing good.

We are blessed – we are blessed indeed
Slaves no longer, we have been freed
From the sin that chains the Earth
By faith in Christ – our second birth

O Lord, we thank Thee for the years
Of watchful care that calmed our fears.
For every dawn on freedom’s shore,
We lift our hearts and praise Thee more.

Yet greater still than earthly grace,
The promise of Thy Son’s embrace –
Through Christ we gain eternal life,
With joy and peace and no more strife.

Redeemed, restored, no more to roam,
We’ll dwell with Thee, our God, at home.
In endless light and perfect love,
We praise the Lord who reigns above.

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance. (Psalms 33:12)

PAVACA

Grasshopper’s Treason Tuesday: The Sum of ALL Fears

DISGUSTING!
Yossi BenYakar
@YossiBenYakar
Seattle, USA: A 77-year-old American man steps off a bus in the city center and is brutally beaten — without any reason by Somali migrant Abdullahi Olman.

The entire savage attack was captured on the city’s real-time crime cameras. But Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson’s response?

She openly said she wants to turn off all the surveillance cameras because they might “endanger refugees and migrants.”

Her priorities are crystal clear: Protecting migrants > Protecting elderly American citizens. This is what progressive leadership looks like in 2026.

When will Americans finally wake up?

IMO it’s not normal for someone to think that way. It’s as if they’re brainwashed zombies with no ability to think logically or feel pride in their country.

WTH is she wearing? A pink zoot-suit from the 1940s, made for a man with shoulders 10″ broader than hers?

With the hair pulled back as far and tight as possible, to look like a man with short hair?

This is the mayor of Seattle?

What is needed, if there was a man within a hundred miles, is to tell the People of Seattle that if you see something like this happen, shoot the perpetrators — and not only will you not be prosecuted, you will receive an award from the City of Seattle.

Put the criminals on notice that they have nowhere to hide, and empower the citizens to take back control of their streets.

Thank you.
IMO — the elderly American man was beaten by the Somali “migrant”, at least in part, because the American man is a Kuffar. And the Somali “migrant” is a Muslim. Looks like he took the man’s wallet. too.

Hope the man is going to be OK.

Honda Cancels EV Plant in Canada – Despite Prior Deal for Billions in Subsidies
May 5, 2026

SD: “Previously, Toyota Inc informed the Canadian trade delegation that if the USMCA (CUSMA) was dissolved, the most important auto manufacturing operation they have in the country would end. Toyota was being respectful and brutally honest with the Canadians.

Last year, at almost the same time as Toyota made their position clear, Honda put a pause on the plan to build EVs in Ontario [2025 Notice] pending additional review. Today, according to Nikkei, Honda has now completed that review and cancelled the plan. Honda will not build EVs in Canada.

Asahi Kasei, the Japanese material supplier that makes battery separators, a core component used in lithium-ion batteries, will likely make a similar announcement soon. The decision is in response to declining EV sales in combination with current U.S-Canada trade friction. Without guaranteed access to the U.S. market, it makes no sense to invest in Canada.

Electrek – “Honda is shelving its massive C$15 billion ($11 billion) EV and battery manufacturing hub in Ontario, Canada, according to a new report from Nikkei. The move escalates what was initially framed as a temporary pause into what increasingly looks like an indefinite retreat.

[…] When Honda announced the Alliston, Ontario project in April 2024, it was billed as the company’s most ambitious EV commitment yet. The plan called for a new EV assembly plant capable of producing 240,000 vehicles per year, a 36 GWh battery factory, and cathode material processing facilities through joint ventures with POSCO Future M and Asahi Kasei. Production was targeted for 2028.

By May 2025, Honda paused the project for approximately two years, citing tariff uncertainty under the Trump administration and softening EV demand. The company said at the time it would revisit the timeline in 2027. (read more)

Unfortunately, most Canadians have no idea about the background dynamics in this ongoing U.S-Canada trade friction.  The Canadian government has strict controls in place to limit information to the Canadian people. The issue of Honda cancelling investment then has no context for the Canadian people to understand. Factually, it is quite sad.”

DONALD TRUMP JUST PAUSED PROJECT FREEDOM — after he PROVED America can 100% control the Strait of Hormuz

“The Commander-in-Chief must believe that the Iranians are serious about SURRENDERING!”

“The President must know what he’s doing.”

“We suspect the President is letting the Iranians save face. The enemy just yesterday said they controlled the strait. That was obviously a lie.”

“And watching the Americans escort ship after ship out of the Gulf and them not being able to do anything about that was going to be humiliating!”

“Not only were they going to lose whatever military prestige they had left in the region, their negotiators weren’t going to be able to fight for their position after they lost their last bargaining chip.”

“If he’s going to pause Project Freedom for the sake of a deal, because you could also continue Project Freedom during the negotiations, you know, you do want to get these foreign ships moving.”

“And we’re about to find out how insane in the brain the regime really is.”
