“This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn nor weep.” . . . “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
A Full Measure of Sin
In Genesis 15, God establishes His eternal covenant with Abram (later renamed Abraham). The Lord reaffirms His promise of offspring to Abram but enlarges it to include descendants as numerous as the stars (see Genesis 15:5; cf. Genesis 12:2). God also confirms His vow to give Abram the land of Canaan for his offspring (see Genesis 15:7–21). However, Abram’s descendants would not possess the land until God’s timing was fulfilled: “And they shall come back here in the fourth generation, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete” (Genesis 15:16, ESV).
God explains to Abram that, before taking possession of Canaan, the people of Israel would spend years as “strangers in a foreign land” (Egypt), where they would “be oppressed as slaves for 400 years” (Genesis 15:13, NLT). This God-ordained delay would occur because the iniquity of the Amorites was not yet complete.
The Amorites were one of the prominent people groups inhabiting ancient Canaan before the Israelite conquest. They are frequently mentioned in the Old Testament as living in the land God promised to Abraham’s descendants (see Genesis 14:7; Deuteronomy 20:17; Joshua 10:5–10; Judges 1:34–36).
The Hebrew term translated as “iniquity” in Genesis 15:16 refers to wickedness, sin, or moral corruption. Iniquity can involve thoughts, feelings, speech, or actions that transgress or ignore God’s law or character. The Amorites had engaged in deeply sinful behaviors and practices such as idolatry, violence, and immorality that were offensive to God’s holy standards. Yet, God did not immediately punish them.
The Bible states that the iniquity of the Amorites was “not yet complete.” This indicates that, although the Amorites were evil, their sinfulness had not yet reached the threshold required for God’s intervention through judgment, destruction, and removal from the land. In the New International Version, Genesis 15:16 says, “For the sin of the Amorites has not yet reached its full measure.” God had ultimately determined to destroy the Amorites and give their land to Abraham’s descendants, but He told Abraham that Israel would need to wait; the moment for God to deal with the Amorites in judgment would not happen during Abraham’s time.
The Good News Translation makes the meaning of God’s message to Abraham abundantly clear: “It will be four generations before your descendants come back here, because I will not drive out the Amorites until they become so wicked that they must be punished” (Genesis 15:16, GNB). God recognized the Amorites’ wickedness but was waiting until their sinfulness reached its full measure before enacting divine punishment.
Genesis 15:16 demonstrates God’s patience and justice. He does not act impulsively but gives people time to repent or for their sins to reach a boundary point where judgment and punishment are necessary. God was giving the Amorites time to change their ways or for their actions to reach a degree of evil that justified His driving them out of the land. By waiting four generations, God poured out His grace, effectively leaving the Amorites without excuse.
The iniquity of the Amorites did eventually reach its full measure, with Leviticus 18 providing a detailed account of their detestable sexual practices and child sacrifices. God warned Israel, “Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these acts, for that is how the pagans made themselves unclean, those pagans who lived in the land before you and whom the Lord is driving out so that you can go in. Their actions made the land unclean, and so the Lord is punishing the land and making it reject the people who lived there. They did all these disgusting things . . . but you must not do them. All of you . . . must keep the Lord’s laws and commands, and then the land will not reject you, as it rejected the pagans who lived there before you” (Leviticus 18:24–28, GNB).
God allowed His treatment of the Amorites to be a lesson to Israel. God’s people would only take possession of the land according to God’s timing and purpose. First, God would exhibit His patience in dealing with sin. However, once the iniquity of the Amorites was complete—once their sin had reached the full measure deserving of God’s judgment—the Lord would drive them out of the land.
God’s judgment is measured and purposeful; He holds every nation and people morally accountable for their actions. The apostle Peter reminds us today that “the Lord isn’t slow to do what he promised, as some people think. Rather, he is patient for [our] sake. He doesn’t want to destroy anyone but wants all people to have an opportunity to turn to him and change the way they think and act” (2 Peter 3:9, GW).
In summary, the fact that “the iniquity of the Amorites was not yet complete” means that God was waiting for the Amorites’ sinfulness to justify judgment and expulsion from the land. The statement highlights God’s patience, the seriousness with which He regards moral corruption, and His commitment to justice in dealing with people and nations. xhttps://www.gotquestions.org/sin-of-the-Amorites.html

Superficially a rerun. Worth reading. Greater detail than we had before.
The entire biolab monster needs Full Transparency. COVID must be fully exposed.
Let the chips fall where they may. Biolabs must be defunded, shutdown AND destroyed in their entirety.
DNI Releases New Info on Biolabs in Ukraine
Here’s the new information from DNI.
They admit that the US built and fund/support, over 40 labs in Ukraine, which house dangerous pathogens, which Russia claim are being used for bioweapon development.
They are kind of admitting Putin and Russian MIL were right, to a degree.
To me, I think this is the beginning stages of public disclosure about Covid being a US-funded experiment, and it very well may lead back to the labs in Ukraine. Some of these US-funded labs were studying bat coronaviruses in Ukraine, as early as 2014 via USIAD Project PREDICT.
We have to tell the world that COVID was man-made, and we have to tell the world who made it. I think that process is now underway.
It also tells me talks with Russia must be in a good place, because any deal with Russia, Putin is going to address the biolabs in Ukraine, as it has been one of Russia’s main talking points at the UN. I think this disclosure is related to a peace deal between Russia and the US/Ukraine.
When, not if, your EV starts to smoke – Run Away! Then what the fire department does
Gee… it looks like the approved method of dealing with a runaway battery fire in an EV is “let it burn”, then treat everything like a toxic site. Oh, and evacuate the shopping center down wind, have anyone working the fire on bottle air gear, and avoid spraying water on the fire until the battery has fully burned up.
Oh, and a special truck with special fire suppression cover hauls the burned out hulk to a special disposal lot where it sits for a while to see if it will start burning again before the Toxic Waste team disposes of it.
I wonder who pays for all that, and for the pavement repairs where the asphalt was melted and burned?….
“Don’t try this at home, kids!”… so maybe don’t charge your LIon car in the garage… or park & charge at charging stations next to older cars…
Don’t get me wrong: I actually would like to have an EV Econobox for around town errands and such. It would just be required to have a LiFePO4 battery or be a plug in hybrid with NiMH (or similar) battery chemistry without the self-immolate feature…
This video shows a full firedepartment response cycle, from driving into the parking lot where a vehicle at a charging station is starting to smoke, through full on engulfing fire, to smoking watered out mess, to hauling it away and putting ALL the gear of any responders who were exposed to smoke into HazMat bags for specialized cleaning… yeah, never inhale any smoke from an EV fire…
Iran support rally(s). Politicians need to see the Iranian support. IRGC is a stage 4 cancer, on the world. As painful as it is to take down IRGC, it is 100%the right thing to do. NOT delay doing so.
Hopefully Iranians are receiving ground support, weapons, to obliterate IRGC.
Why the June 20 Paris rally for Iranians is drawing unprecedented international support
On June 20, tens of thousands of Iranians and supporters of human rights from around the world are expected to gather in Paris for what is anticipated to be one of the largest international demonstrations focused on Iran in recent years. Organizers expect participation to exceed 100,000 people, making the event not only a major gathering of the Iranian diaspora but also a significant expression of global concern over the worsening human rights situation in Iran.
What distinguishes this year’s rally is not merely its expected size, but the extraordinary breadth of support it has attracted from respected figures across a wide range of fields. Nobel Prize laureates, senior Christian and Jewish religious leaders, Olympic athletes, world champions, and prominent sports personalities have all publicly expressed support for the rally’s objectives and voiced concern about the alarming increase in executions and repression in Iran.
The convergence of these diverse voices is remarkable. They represent different nationalities, cultures, professions, and political perspectives. Yet they are united by a shared conviction that the international community must not remain silent in the face of escalating human rights abuses and the continued use of executions as a tool of political repression.
Perhaps the most significant expression of support comes from a joint statement signed by seventy-five Nobel Laureates from around the world. The signatories include recipients of Nobel Prizes in Peace, Literature, Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, and Economics. Their statement warns of systematic human rights violations, expresses alarm at reports of a new wave of executions targeting political prisoners and protesters, and calls for the immediate halt of politically motivated executions, the release of political prisoners, and unrestricted international monitoring of detention facilities.
The involvement of so many Nobel Laureates sends a powerful message. These are individuals whose achievements have earned them global respect and whose voices carry considerable moral authority. Their collective intervention demonstrates that concerns about Iran’s human rights situation have reached far beyond political circles and have become a matter of international humanitarian concern.
Support has also come from an impressive group of Christian and Jewish religious leaders, including former archbishops, bishops, archdeacons, deans, and rabbis from Europe and North America. Their statement highlights not only the wave of political executions but also growing restrictions on religious freedom and the rights of religious minorities in Iran.
For these religious leaders, the issue transcends politics. It concerns the sanctity of human life, freedom of conscience, and the right of every individual to practice their faith without fear of persecution. Their support reflects a belief shared across religious traditions: that human dignity is universal and that governments must be held accountable when they violate fundamental rights.
The world of sport has added its voice as well. Olympic medalists, world champions, national team captains, and internationally recognized athletes have issued a statement condemning the execution of political prisoners and drawing attention to Iranian athletes who have become victims of political persecution. Their appeal is especially powerful because it comes from individuals who understand the values of courage, perseverance, and fair play.
Athletes know that sport can inspire hope and unite people across borders. They also understand the tragedy of seeing young champions punished not for their athletic achievements but for their beliefs or participation in peaceful protests. By standing in solidarity with the Iranian people, these sports figures remind the world that the defense of human rights is not confined to governments or political institutions; it is a responsibility shared by all members of the international community.

HOLY SMOKES. President Trump has just ordered a US military strike to KILL terrorist Tren De Aragua leader Niño Guerrero — in conjunction WITH the Venezuelan government
I VOTED FOR THIS
“At my direction, the United States Southern Command delivered a swift and lethal kinetic strike to successfully execute Niño Guerrero, the infamous leader of Tren De Aragua, one of the most bloodthirsty Terrorist Organizations on Planet Earth.”
“Before I returned to office, Joe Biden opened our Southern Border to millions of Illegal Criminals, and allowed this foreign army to rape, maim, and murder American Citizens with total impunity. During my Campaign, I pledged to expel these monsters from our Country, and bring Justice to the families of those they slaughtered, including the precious 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, 22-year-old Laken Reilly, and countless other beautiful souls. With this action, the United States Military has brought retribution for them, their families, and their loved ones.”
“Early in my Administration, I delivered on my promise to designate Tren de Aragua as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, deport thousands of evil criminals, and wage war against the Cartels, who have long been waging war against our Citizens, while weak leaders left America helpless and defensive.”
“This action was coordinated closely with our friends in Venezuela, with whom we are working very well. As a result, Tren de Aragua terrorists no longer have safe haven in Venezuela or anywhere else and, under my leadership, we will find these vicious murderers and drugs lords anytime, anyplace, and send them to the depths of hell where they belong. GOD BLESS AMERICA! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” (in reality, dangerous and deadly gene-altering therapy injections) — which have now been proven to cause, to aggravate, or to re-establish a myriad of different types of medical conditions (physical and/or psychological conditions; including those which were under control or were in remission before the patient took any of these “vaccines”) — which have now been proven to cause or to aggravate these conditions as long as three and a half years post-injection — which render the “vaccinated” person to be a “ticking time bomb” of negative cardiac and lung issues — which interfere with and/or damage the p53 protein of the human body, the protein that detects cancer cells — which severely damage or even destroy the innate immune system of the human body, rendering it catastrophically vulnerable to all sorts of infections (including to COVID-19 infection) — which destroy up to 60% of the lifetime supply of eggs in the “vaccinated” female’s body — which induce myocarditis / pericarditis in children (and in adults) — are still being administered to millions of persons all over the world. These “vaccines” are still being pushed by the CDC and the FDA in the United States. These “vaccines” are still on the CDC’s Childhood and Adolescent Immunization Schedule. These “vaccines” are still on the CDC’s Adult Immunization Schedule. Those who are the main figures in the lab-creation of the COVID-19 bioweapon virus itself, and of the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” (either in research, or in funding, or in suppression of the truth about these bioweapons) — Dr. Anthony Fauci; Dr. Francis Collins; Dr. Deborah Birx; Dr. Ralph Baric; Dr. Peter Daszak; Dr. Robert Redfield; Dr. Stephen Hahn; among others — have not been brought to justice.

“Noel des Enfants qui N’ont Plus de Maisons” (“Christmas of the Children who No Longer Have a Home”) is an art song written in December 1915 (during World War I) by the French composer, Claude Debussy. The French lyrics are below, followed by the English translation:
Yours Truly is deeply appreciative of, and thanks, https://www.melodietreasury.com/ for the above image of the original French lyrics and of the English translation of this song.
In order to put into context how this song applies to today’s offering, please listen to baritone John Brancy perform it with pianist Peter Dugan. Yours Truly is deeply appreciative of the musical talents of the performers, and thanks https://www.youtube.com/ for the opportunity to share their efforts. The song is under three minutes long:
Years ago, Yours Truly had the honor to accompany her voice teacher, baritone Edmund Najera, when he performed this song as part of a voice recital. Even decades later, when I hear this song, it brings chills down the spine. The raw emotions of anger, sorrow, loss, and fear in the original lyrics leap out of the vocal line and of the piano accompaniment music.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
What the world has suffered since late 2019 — and what still continues today — is not a war of bombs and of bullets: It is a war waged with fear and gaslighting; with a lab-created “virus” cobbled together from pieces of various animal coronaviruses, and named SARS-CoV-2; with needles and syringes. It is waged in healthcare clinics, hospitals, and pharmacies. It is the war of COVID-19: the bioweapon virus itself, and the bioweapon “vaccines.” It is a war waged using unquestioning acceptance of government statements that the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” are “safe and effective” — when it has been conclusively proven that they are not. It is a war waged using unquestioning compliance with “mandates” or “requirements” or “recommendations” by employers, by school systems, by healthcare providers, that people who wish to access these entities be COVID-19 “vaccinated.” It is waged in the laboratories of Pfizer-BioNTech, of Moderna, of Novovax, and of other entities, which lab-create and manufacture these “vaccines.” It is a war waged through the marginalizing, the silencing, the loss of jobs, the loss of Licenses to Practice Medicine, and the “de-platforming” of those who dare to question the official narratives; of those who dare to present solid evidence that these “vaccines” are dangerous and deadly to those who take them; of those who dare to treat COVID-19 infected persons — or to offer alternative (and safe) prophylactic COVID-19 protocols — using “off-label” drugs, and/or alternative therapeutic vitamins and supplements. It is waged through the enormous financial grants by government funders (NIH, NIAID), and by private funders (Gates Foundation, CEPI, GAVI) to those who lab-create these “vaccines.” A stunning, recent example of the “silencing” of those who dare to present evidence that the “vaccines” are NOT “safe and effective” is written about here: https://worldcouncilforhealth.substack.com/p/one-of-the-greatest-manipulations (the death by suicide of COVID-19 “vaccine” dangers statistician, Christine Cotton.) Meanwhile, the induced, aggravated, or re-established illnesses, injuries, and disabilities in “vaccinated” people, continues. The deaths that result from these “vaccines” being injected into human beings continues.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Yours Truly presents a “modern-day” version that she wrote of the lyrics for “Noel des Enfants.” The English language version and the French language version are below:
As in the original lyrics by M. Debussy, the story is told through the experiences of children. However, in Yours Truly’s opinion, the lyrics can also be a story as told by adults — illness; death; loss of loved ones; a sense of helplessness. A sense — a realization — that, despite the assurances from government (World War I was supposed to be “the war to end all wars”; the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” were supposed to “stop the spread” and be “safe and effective”) — these “assurances” were lies: and that people are paying the price for believing the lies.
(Notes: One: Apologies for the layout — one is not a professional editor; and, Two: while the original Claude Debussy lyrics and piano accompaniment are considered to be “In the public domain” in the United States (per Wikipedia search regarding Public Domain items in the United States), Yours Truly personally would not attempt to use the French translation of the new lyrics that I wrote to replace, or substitute for, the original lyrics of the song.)

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.

I am going to start with Jeff Childer’s June 3rd article.
Last week, Keven Warsh was sworn in by Justice Clarence Thomas as our newest Fed Chair…. Yesterday, Warsh placed his first two hires on the chessboard. Their credentials provide what we might call a ‘signal’… Paul Winfree is one of the “Project 2025” authors, which is bad enough, but he also wrote the chapter on the Federal Reserve…
..Bill Pulte is uniquely positioned to watch money move around the world, and to connect those flows to the people and groups behind them.
As FHFA director and chairman of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Bill already oversees institutions that touch or guarantee a large share of U.S. mortgages, giving him access (directly or via agency tools such as anti‑fraud analytics) to extraordinarily detailed, often nonpublic financial and property data on elites and institutions.
Layer on top of that his new ODNI role, which coordinates foreign‑intelligence collection and analysis, including programs that sometimes sweep in the communications and financial dealings of U.S. citizens talking to foreigners, and suddenly the same hard‑charging operator willing to wield mortgage records against the Administration’s political enemies can, in principle, cross‑reference housing, credit, and ownership patterns with intelligence‑grade information about foreign contacts, shell structures, and illicit funding streams.
There’s a lot of potential there. But more, if an administration seeks leverage on powerful actors who thought their finances were opaque or hidden safely offshore, putting a fiercely loyal bulldog at the junction of Fannie/Freddie’s data firehose and ODNI’s surveillance and analysis capabilities is about as close as you can get to a purpose‑built leverage machine. I’m not saying that’s what’s happening. I’m just saying…
Jeff has zeroed in on a major chess move by POTUS Trump and there are a lot more dots that connect to that hypothesis.
Now let’s step back in time.
A nurse, Liz Harris, who refused the Clot Shot, ran for office in AZ and was elected to the state legislature. She invited Jacqueline Breger, a forensic investigator for Attorney John Thaler, to testify at a legislative hearing in February 2023. Breger presented allegations of election fraud, cartel bribes, and money laundering via land deeds. The Arizona House of Representatives responded by expelling Harris in a bipartisan vote after the hearing, as the committee determined she had engaged in “disorderly behavior” and violated the chamber’s rules.
People that follow me know that I am regularly a cautionary check against hopium. The strength of Thaler’s investigation is not rooted in theory, equations, or statistical deviations, but rather thousands of documented falsified transactions…
My intuition was informed by a drug trafficking organization I helped dismantle. During my office’s investigation, we located bogus deeds of trust, that facilitated money laundering in sham real estate deals. This led to racketeering convictions of organization members. Our team went on to secure six 1st degree murder convictions of the crime organization that were tying up loose ends that threatened the organization.
The investigative work of John Thaler that I’ve reviewed over the past 24 hours is textbook in its approach to exposing racketeering, and of crucial importance.
The fact that his work led him directly to election corruption and bribes is not shocking. His account needs to be shared to everyone.
Let’s remember where Venezuela is. It borders the Caribbean. What else is in the Caribbean? The origin point for the infamous system of offshore banking established directly by the British. Back in 1960, the largest banking houses in London, working in partnership with the government and the ex-checker, established 14 completely separate secret jurisdictions. These are the offshore banking centers that now hold between 50 and 75 trillion dollars with all 50 of the world’s largest banks operating within them. These offshore centers exist outside the control of sovereign governments. They’re secret, they’re unregulated, and they facilitate illegal activity. What we once had, a legitimate regulated banking system, has been transformed into a criminal enterprise.
Interestingly, the Russians have known this for years and have been more vociferous about it than any Western government. In a 2014 speech, Viktor Ivanov, then Russia’s top drug enforcement official, laid it out clearly in a Moscow conference. He said,
“This allows us to confidently assert that narco money is the foundation of the modern financial system. It is not surprising that during the first peak of the financial crisis of 2008 2009, Antonio Costa from the UN announced that the top banks in the world dumped in around $352 billion of narco dollars to use for interbank borrowing to address the critical shortage of liquidity. And he goes on to make clear that the global financial system needs drug money to survive. The very existence of the global financial bubble, he said, is based on precisely this opportunity for banks to attract liquid narco money. In fact,this garbage fertilizes the present economic system…
…Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant recently commented that 50% of his job involves issues of national security.
ROUGH PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT
48 minutes Josh: ..Now you were talking about Scavino? Every journey has an end? … Hold on because this is important.

So now you have Dan Scavino. “Every journey has an end.” Well this is really, really interesting .. [Discus relevant Q posts]. That’s contextual reference frame that it correlates directly to what you’re just talking about. And then what do you have? You have the White House posting on the same day that the DOW [Dept of War] CTO posted “Trust in Trump. Sit back and relax. It’ll all work out in the end. It always does. President Donald J. Trump.” So, another trust in Trump. Now, I didn’t look at the time stamp of this one. I can check it out [on the Q board] real quick. .. [ __ ] “Now, here comes the pain….
Cuz you said that the quote that Scavino put up was from Endgame, right? Or Enders Game. The one that I put, “part of the journey is the end”, which is the back half of that quote…
.. And it’s from Endgame. “He thought that was part of the plan. (Endgame)?So many questions. who has full control? These people are stupid. Indictment(s) coming.”
52 minutes Josh: ….I want to get into something else that happened today. So, we got the Q. So, something big is about to happen. Now, isn’t it interesting that today Trump nominated his new director of national intelligence?
Alpha: And you know, he did it on the same day that BB formally declared the new director for Mossad….
53 minutes Josh: Now why Bill Pulte? Why? Why did Donald Trump put the trust fund Bill Pulte as director of national intelligence? It’s actually very simple.
Number one, Bill Pulte is a Trump loyalist through and through. The guy won’t cross Trump.
Number two is he tells Trump everything that’s going on. He’s very good at delivering Trump’s orders. In other words, Trump basically has someone in the DNI that he knows is 100% absolute loyal to him.
Why is that important? Because you have Devin Nunes who is in a senior consulting position directly at ODNI who’s basically going to be guiding Pulte through everything that comes about from DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s declassification and investigations that she’s leading. Pulte is simply pointing a finger. Do this, do this, do this. Devin Nunes is controlling it and Trump is controlling it. This is actually highly strategic of Donald Trump to do this.
It scares the living shit out of the DC freaking panicans.
[Think refusal to renew their beloved FISA all of a sudden and threatening to pass a law preventing Bill Pulte taking the position. So yes some are freaking out. — GC]
Now, I want people to understand that there are people in the Senate, so when DNI Tulsi Gabbard resigned and said that she’s coming out on the 30th, what happens then is John Thune and various different Senate leaders, they go and meet with Donald Trump and they say, “Hey, this is who we we would want to go in as director of national intelligence. This is who we’re suggesting.” This is how it works in DC.” And typically 85% of the time, the president would go with those recommendations because you’re going to guarantee Senate approval.
Tom Cotton was one of the lead people that was being proposed by the Senate, by the way, so APEC right there.
Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas — one of the Republican Party’s more hawkish members — received tens of thousands of dollars in campaign cash from a hedge fund investor who’s reportedly made millions of dollars from commodity speculations that have paid off since Russia invaded Ukraine, according to federal campaign finance records.
Federal Election Committee records show that Soroban Capital Partners LP founder Eric Mandelblatt and his wife, Danielle Mandelblatt, last year spread $43,000 in political contributions between political action committees that support Cotton…
………..
53 minutes Josh: Well, guess what? Trump rug pulled them with Pulte. Now, why Pulte?
Pulte is already in a Senate confirmed position. So, he can get Senate confirmation. [Maybe -GC] DNI is a little bit different. He’s got to go through the Senate Intelligence Committee, but I’m pretty sure Pulte is going to get it. He’s already been Senate confirmed. So they know they can get the votes for him. But also, I think that this might be an interim rug pull. I don’t think that this is going to be Donald Trump’s final selection. He’s just going to be the interim.
You got to remember because you had the acting DNI after Tulsi Gabbard, was supposed to be the assistant DNI, Lucas, who by the way is a deep stater. He’s a holdover. And I think that a lot of people got to Trump’s ear and said, “You need to get rid of this And that’s why Bill Pulte is going in there as acting, but we will see if that comes about. I think that there’s going to be a rug pull down the road. I would say after July 4th and Trump will move Pulte out. I think that that was just to get Tom Cotton and the other Senate guys out of the running and Trump has a plan. I think it’s going to be Devin Nunez at the end of the day.
[I disagree, Pulte has a major job to do connecting Mortgage Fraud to the Drug Cartels. –GC]
56 minutes Alpha: I do think you’re right. I think Trump is going to run with a lot of acting positions until he gets his new House and Senate in January. And when that new House and Senate in January swears in, then it’s break glass time. He’s going to have a super majority and he’s going to appoint everyone that is going to make jaws drop in all these different positions and that’s going to be the A team. I think what he’s doing right now is he’s going to roll with some of these acting positions for a while.
57 minutes Josh: So, there’s also something else here and I think that this is very interesting… So I’m going to pull this up. I want to take people through my thinking here.
Josh pulls up a Trump Truth Post at 57:28:
I am appointing the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency and Chairman of Fanny Mae/ Freddie Mac, William J Pulte, to serve as Acting Director of National intelligence. William has deep experience managing sensitive matters in America, the safety and soundness of the Markets, and over 10 Trillion Dollars at Fanny Mae/ Freddie Mac, a substantial increase from where it was just 12 months ago. During this period, he will remain Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency and Chairman of Fanny Mae/ Freddie Mac. Congratulations to Director Pulte. President DONALD J. TRUMP
… during this period he will remain director of the federal housing finance agency. That’s interesting.
Now here’s something interesting. The federal housing finance agencies already went after Adam Schiff. They went after Leticia James. Why? Because they’re the ones that investigate all the mortgage fraud claims, right?
Did you see what else Donald Trump did today? He signed an executive order. [Executive Order 14406 The critical phrase“…it has long been the policy of the United States to adopt tailored measures to safeguard our financial system from illicit use and promote safe and sound lending and other practices by financial institutions. My Administration will not tolerate national security and public safety risks caused by illicit cross-border financial activity…” GC] Let me pull this up. [A truth post]
SECURING AMERICA’S FINANCIAL SYSTEM: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to protect America’s financial system from illicit activity, strengthen customer identification requirements for financial institutions, and address the credit risks posed by extending financial services to non-work authorized illegal aliens.
[Josh reads part of the Truth]
Illegal Immigrants and Foreign Fraudster steal BILLIONS every year from the American taxpayer. As part of my administration’s historic effort to end FRAUD and reverse MASS ILLEGAL IMIGRATION, I recently signed a powerful new Executive Order which will be led bythe Treasury Department to stop Banks, Credit Cards, and Financial Institutions from being used to facilitate Human Trafficking or Human Smuggling, Drug Trafficking, Illegal Immigration, and the Criminal Cartels who orchestrate the activities. Access to our nation’s financial systems must be limited to those who have a legal right to be here and who are engaged in lawful and legitimate commerce. Bank accounts being used to enable illegal immigration or to store the welfare received by illegal aliens will be shut down….
Josh: Then he says, “My executive order will also allow us to stop billions in leaving our country in a matter of criminal activity.” But there’s a part here I want to point out.
Those engaged in lawful or legitimate commerce are the only ones who can use it. Then he says bank accounts being used to enable illegal immigration or to store the welfare received by illegal aliens will be shut down. You remember we talked about citizens on paper only. How the Democrats were basically creating employee agencies through Congress funded at $5 million. They had 20 employees but there’s actually two people that work there. They were actually collecting paychecks that were going through bank accounts. Well, what else are we finding out? A lot of this stuff with illegal immigrants. Think about how it works on the illegal immigrant side. All you have to do is have an illegal immigrant come in and open up a bank account or someone say that they’re an illegal immigrant and guess what happens now? They are put into the system and they can have benefits deposited, SNAP, welfare, so forth. Well, this is what he’s talking about because that is nothing more than an operation by the left, by the socialists to basically collect taxpayer dollars without ever actually being somebody meeting the benefit criterias. So, SNAP, Medicaid, and welfare fraud is massive. So, keep this in mind because he [Trump] just signed an executive order. Basically, if a bank goes out there and does business with one of these fictitious, fake people or an illegal immigrant, they are now going to come under federal scrutiny and they’re going to be investigated.
Now, remember the senior Act Blue executive in Texas was just tried for mortgage fraud. 65 million dollar worth of loans on one mortgage [ home worth] $300,000. Now, here’s the thing. How are they able to do that? They were able to do that because this is the kickback mechanism that they do. This is why Leticia James has multiple primary residences. Adam Schiff has multiple primary residences.
This is why all of the Arizona Senate and Congress are real estate brokers buying up and fixing and flipping houses out there because what they’ll do is they’ll buy a house for $250,000. They’ll put $50,000 into it and then the cartels will come out there through ancillary business organizations and give them $4 million cash for the house and they clear that money outright. This is how they have been basically getting paid off for all these transactions. Well, now you have the one man who’s going to be the acting director of national intelligence as well as the head of the housing finance office who can investigate all the mortgage fraud and everything like that. But now he’s the director of national intelligence as well. So now he has a back-end view of the classified aspects of all this operation, how it works with the cartels, with the NGOS. Do you understand what I’m saying?
1 hour 2 minutes Alpha: I think I’m picking up on something. You at least made me think of a strategy that Trump’s pulling out. Yeah, with Tulsi Gabbard as DNI working the RICO aspect of the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax and all that other stuff. With that position, you now have access to certain clearances. She’s got everything that she needs. So now she moves into an advisory role. She gets put on the sidelines.
Now the next RICO case that’s being worked on is all the mortgage fraud and everything that’s going on. So now you bring him [Pulte] in, make him the acting head of DNI. Now he gets those security clearances. He gets the access of it. And then down the line, til we see the next person that gets put into the DNI who’s working the next [RICO case] is Trump strategically putting these people in as these heads of positions to give them clearance and access to things to complete the respective investigations that they’re doing. That’s F..King GENIUS!
1 hour 3 minutes Josh: Well, not only that, but think about Bill Pulte. He could only deal with the American side of it. He doesn’t have all the information. He doesn’t know why these people are committing mortgage fraud or how that mortgage fraud is operating on a grander scale. But now as a Director of National Intelligence, he’s going to see the movement of cartels and foreign intelligence agencies and foreign militaries and how they’re moving the money around from various different banks. And how those are funding ancillary and shell corporations that then flow in to these mortgage companies and buy these houses up. And he’s going to be like, “OH!”This is to take down their [the globalist’s] massive funding mechanism.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
There are plenty of other financial tracks showing illegal activity, but I think this is the specific money laundering method that scares the crap out of the politicians who are on the take.
IF they were wise and not given over to sinful pursuits of the world;
Matthew 5:45
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. (KJV)
Jesus taught us to be as kind as possible to everyone we are in contact with in our lives because that emulates God the Father and how he treats all of us. He shares the sun, the rain, and the harvest with everybody regardless of them being good or bad, or that they are a believer or unbeliever.
Were those who reject Him wise, they would look to the beautiful creation around them and praise God for His love.
Were they wise, the unbelievers and skeptics would look to the endless heavens and see the magnificent intelligent design of something far too beautiful and complex to fully understand and explain with our limited minds; and then praise an Almighty God for His creation.
Were they wise, all of the heathen, narcissistic, and self absorbed people in the world would stop and thank God for their beating hearts, breathing lungs, and thoughtful brains.
God’s goodness is displayed openly for all to see. Many people go through life blind to Him, missing the gifts while thrashing about wildly seeking what they believe will satisfy the unquenchable thirst in their beings.
These are the people who need kindness the most. They need to see and hear us give God the praise for His power and love. Yet, standing for God and pointing out His goodness to an unbelieving world can be more of a challenge, especially when we have close relationships who seem to reject it.
The opposed to God and His ways need to discover for themselves the error of their choices through how the believers live around them. In that manner they may grow wiser and might recognize and acknowledge they have been wrong and repent.
In The Days Of Noah
It may seem a stretch to consider that the current path of the world has led to conditions that were present when God declared He had seen enough and brought the sin and evil to an end. Yet, here we are and no, it does not appear to be a stretch. The drumbeats of war, disease, natural and unnaturally caused catastrophes, sexual perversions, perceived gender dysphoria, child abuse and sacrifice, human trafficking of slaves, lovers of money, drug addictions, hatred and violence against groupings of people and cultures, worshippers of false and and pagan gods with their religions, and on and on and on. The evidence of wickedness is spread throughout the world and everybody is touched by it to some extent. Some of us on here lament the choices that even family members and friends make that we know will bring pain or even their destruction.
God chose Noah and members of his immediate family for a restart of mankind and a cleansing of the earth. For this story if you do not remember it or have not read it, please read the scripture found in Genesis 6:9 – 9:17. You can change the version from NKJV as you prefer.
Noah was not like Jesus. He was not sinless. However, he was judged by God as righteous. So what is the difference between those two terms? We probably need to know since no human being beyond Jesus, who was both God and man, has been sinless. He who was without sin was sent to earth for the purpose of reconciling mankind to God. As The Word tells us, He desires that none be lost. That demonstrates how much God hates sin, yet, loves us, His created beings.
Being judged righteous by God is something all believers should seek, that Noah was in spades. Place yourself in his position. You are living and located in an incredibly evil region of the world that has no belief and understanding about the God you worship. You are the middle aged patriarch of a family that includes a wife and three sons along with their wives. The Biblical account does not tell us if the sons and their wives also had children prior to The Flood.
One day, in great detail down to materials and measurements, you receive a clear instruction from God to build a huge float boat without propulsion of any type, a covered animal party barge of sorts. You learn that God, whom you have always trusted and worshipped despite the ridicule and wickedness around you, is over it all with mankind. He tells you that with the exception of who and what you are to bring aboard the ark all else are going to die. He makes a covenant that you and your family will survive.
Upon hearing this, you decide you better get started. Why? You do so because you completely believe and trust God, whom you have worshipped, believed and walked with during your life. You know from His words He means business. You tell your sons and the wives who then begin to do what you instruct from His instructions to you.
I can just imagine the stank eyes they gave you when you explained the task and who commanded it to be done. But they get busy and do as instructed.
Next, think about how long that project took using tools and methods from the period and using a limited labor pool. Mind blowing. Scholars are not sure, but the overall consensus time range is that it took 40 to 100 years. That meant decades of ridicule and scoffing from the wicked area population toward the village idiot, Noah, along with his family for building a huge boat on very dry land.
Noah could later claim he who laughs last, laughs best, especially as they came running to convince him to let them come on board as the heavy rains fell and the flooding began. However, his blameless life tells us that it was doubtful that he laughed and none were allowed to join him.
That is some major league faith exhibited in an evil world that had grieved God to the point of bringing about the near extinction of life. Noah’s response is a perfect depiction of the righteousness that God ascribed to him.
Righteousness as defined in Merriam-Webster for this application:
“acting in accord with divine or moral law : free from guilt or sin“
That would fit Noah except he was not without sin and that was even demonstrated post flood as the story in Genesis unfolded. We see from this that using secular sources to define God things is not necessarily the way to go. Below is a good description of the term from a Christian sense.
Post death and resurrection of Jesus, we who accept Him as our Savior are judged to be righteous in God’s view. But how does that square with the condition of a sinful Noah being judged righteous in times prior to Jesus?
It lies in the interpretation of the term in the Hebrew Torah, known as the Pentateuch to Christians, which is the first five books in the Old Testament of our Bible. Noah was deemed righteous by God as the one who was blameless in the wicked period in which he lived. It appears he did not speak out against the evil around him, however, he did not participate in it and walked with God daily. The full measure of righteousness of God did not appear on the earth until thousands of years later in the person of Jesus Christ.
From the times of Noah forward the faithful remnant of followers of God becomes a theme concerning the Hebrews throughout the Bible and has continued throughout world history.
Which leads to the heart of man. For us, post Jesus, that means how our heart is turned toward God and accomplishing His will. It’s personal. In short, do we love and trust Him? Do we accept the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus for our own salvation from the flood of our sin? Do we respond to our belief and salvation with actions that reflect the relationship?
Donald J. Trump
Some may say, “Trade, you are losing your mind here.” That’s OK, I get accused of that often. 😂
Honestly, in your lifetime have you ever witnessed anything like you are now seeing on the world stage or in the history books? Peace making through strength that is unparalleled in magnitude is occurring.
Go back in time, would all of the evil we have seen in the world in more recent times have existed if our world leaders had adhered to Godly principles and lived under God’s providence? We know the answer.
Donald J. Trump appears to be a man chosen by God to accomplish His will for America and the world. We can debate whether he is an instrument or a servant of God. However, it seems America has seen this happen before in its 250 years and the same debate about instrument or servant could be held. Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and others have all been raised up when the times demanded it, yet, had questions, detractors and enemies.
I contend that We the People made a covenant with God at our founding. Our founding fathers were not like most of the more recent crop of politicians. The current bunch most closely resemble the unprincipled, evil politicians of the ancient Roman Senate during that body’s more darker periods. Our founders were serious people who had real skin in the game. They quickly hit the enemies list of the then world superpower, Great Britain.
Which is just like Donald J. Trump has in our times; except his listing on enemy lists is far more wide ranging and includes a larger number of traitors and seditionists within our own borders.
In essence our founders asked for God’s dominion over us. His obvious responses through the years have proven He honors the relationship, the covenant. The evidence is in the raising up of leaders and movements when our choice has been to remain faithful. It is also in the discipline we received when collectively most did not and turned from him. This is similar to what has happened with His chosen people of Israel. I am not suggesting He is equating or replacing them with us. Instead. it appears that we have been taken into His care by our faith and dedication of this nation to His Providence. He accepted our intent and hearts then, He continues to honor the intent and hearts of the faithful We the People today.
Once again, please take time to read the last paragraph of our Declaration of Independence.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
Do not fear.
Think about it.

Christian Character
Character is defined as strength of moral fiber. A.W. Tozer described character as “the excellence of moral beings.” As the excellence of gold is its purity and the excellence of art is its beauty, so the excellence of man is his character. Persons of character are noted for their honesty, ethics, and charity. Descriptions such as “man of principle” and “woman of integrity” are assertions of character. A lack of character is moral deficiency, and persons lacking character tend to behave dishonestly, unethically, and uncharitably.
A person’s character is the sum of his or her disposition, thoughts, intentions, desires, and actions. It is good to remember that character is gauged by general tendencies, not on the basis of a few isolated actions. We must look at the whole life. For example, King David was a man of good character (1 Samuel 13:14) although he sinned on occasion (2 Samuel 11). And although King Ahab may have acted nobly once (1 Kings 22:35), he was still a man of overall bad character (1 Kings 16:33). Several people in the Bible are described as having noble character: Ruth (Ruth 3:11), Hanani (Nehemiah 7:2), David (Psalm 78:72), and Job (Job 2:3). These individuals’ lives were distinguished by persistent moral virtue.
Character is influenced and developed by our choices. Daniel “resolved not to defile himself” in Babylon (Daniel 1:8), and that godly choice was an important step in formulating an unassailable integrity in the young man’s life. Character, in turn, influences our choices. “The integrity of the upright guides them” (Proverbs 11:3a). Character will help us weather the storms of life and keep us from sin (Proverbs 10:9a).
It is the Lord’s purpose to develop character within us. “The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold, but the LORD tests the heart” (Proverbs 17:3). Godly character is the result of the Holy Spirit’s work of sanctification. Character in the believer is a consistent manifestation of Jesus in his life. It is the purity of heart that God gives becoming purity in action. God sometimes uses trials to strengthen character: “we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope” (Romans 5:3-4). The Lord is pleased when His children grow in character. “You test the heart and are pleased with integrity” (1 Chronicles 29:17; see also Psalm 15:1-2).
We can develop character by controlling our thoughts (Philippians 4:8), practicing Christian virtues (2 Peter 1:5-6), guarding our hearts (Proverbs 4:23; Matthew 15:18-20), and keeping good company (1 Corinthians 15:33). Men and women of character will set a good example for others to follow, and their godly reputation will be evident to all (Titus 2:7-8).

Broader Normandy Campaign.
If you’re asking about the entire Battle of Normandy (June–August 1944, not just D-Day), U.S. forces suffered far higher losses. American battle casualties in Normandy and northern France from June 6 to mid-September totaled around 135,000, including roughly 29,000 killed.

D-DAY: THE ALLIED INVASION OF NORMANDY
The Allied assault in Normandy to begin the Allied liberation of Nazi-occupied Western Europe was code-named Operation Overlord. It required two years of planning, force and logistics build-up, and extensive training by the United States and Great Britain in the British Isles. Overlord was one of the most heavily guarded secrets of the war, and it benefitted from a sophisticated Allied deception effort to fool Nazi leaders of the true Allied objective. In the leadup to the operation, a combined Anglo-American air campaign and liaison with the French Resistance helped set the conditions for the operation and ensured that the Allies would control the skies over the front in Normandy and delay German counterattack forces.
With the build-up complete, Allied forces were poised for the assault at the start of June 1944, but poor weather caused a delay. Finally, on the morning of June 5, 1944, in a meeting with his American and British subordinates, U.S. General Dwight Eisenhower, the Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force, announced, “O.K. We’ll go.” The “departure day” or D-Day for the operation was set for June 6.
General Eisenhower’s decision put into motion an armada of over 7,000 naval vessels, including 4,000 landing craft and 1,200 warships, to cross the English Channel toward Nazi-controlled Normandy, France. That night 822 aircraft, carrying parachutists and towing gliders, deployed the airborne troops of one British and two American divisions over landing zones in Normandy. Intended to be the vanguard of the operation, the landing of those 23,400 airborne troops just after midnight, early on June 6—D-Day, proved a tremendous success, protecting the flanks of the landing forces and facilitating their continued advance.
From the sea, after preliminary naval bombardment and bombing attacks by Allied aircraft, amphibious assault troops began to land on the beaches of Normandy at 6:30 in the morning. American divisions landed at beaches code-named Utah and Omaha, British divisions at Sword and Gold, and the Canadians at Juno. Although caught by surprise, the Germans fought fiercely, but on four of the five beaches, casualties in the assault echelons were less than some Allied leaders had feared. On Omaha Beach, American troops suffered the heaviest casualties and had a difficult fight to break through German defenses on the bluffs and move inland; despite the tough fight, however, over 34,000 Americans came ashore at Omaha alone on June 6.
Whether by parachute, glider, or amphibious assault craft, in all, nearly 160,000 Allied troops landed in Normandy on D-Day. By nightfall on D-Day, Allied assault troops across Normandy had suffered over 10,300 casualties—killed, wounded, and missing— of which approximately 2,400 were on Omaha Beach.
In addition to the massive naval armada, supporting the operation were about 12,000 Allied aircraft. In addition to major forces from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada, 12 other Allied nations or contingents were part of the largest and most complex amphibious invasion in history.
Allied assault troops gained a foothold on the Continent of Europe on D-Day and fought to gradually expand their beachhead. By the end of June, the Allies had landed over 850,000 troops, 570,000 tons of supplies, and nearly 150,000 vehicles across the beaches of Normandy. There would be months of hard fighting in Europe before the Nazis finally surrendered in May 1945, but the D-Day invasion gave the Allies the success they needed to initiate the campaigns that would lead to the liberation of Occupied Europe.
10yo granddaughter had no idea what D-day was. Fifth grade, I prolly should not be surprised. She is actually a very bright and inquisitive youngster. Lots of questions. 15yo grandson, rattled off depression, holocaust, WWII, something…
They are both now well aware of D-Day, including why “D” in D Day.
Smacks of another opportunity, with July 4th, in four weeks. 🙂

Health Friday is a series devoted to information about Big Pharma, vaccines, general health, and associated topics. There are Important Notifications by our host, Wolf Moon; the Rules of our late, good Wheatie; and, certain caveats from Yours Truly, of which readers should be aware. They are linked here. Note: AI-generated items in today’s offering will be cited as such. If readers, wish to post AI-generated items in today’s discussion thread, they must cite their source. Thank you.
The “TD;LR” summary of the mRNA-1010 situation in the United States: Moderna is desperate to get FDA approval for this modRNA “influenza vaccine”, so the company can proceed to finish getting mCOMBRIAX also FDA-approved. The backstory on this situation is outlined here: https://www.patsnap.com/resources/blog/articles/pfizer-vs-moderna-mrna-patent-strategies-and-pipelines/, updated 2 April 2026. A screenshot from this article is below:
However, Moderna has ALREADY applied for a Patent for mRNA-1010: https://patents.google.com/patent/EP4274607A1/en; title: “Seasonal rna influenza virus vaccines.” The Patent application was submitted on 10 January 2022. The current Status of the application is “Pending.” By the way, the Patent claims state that as many as SEVEN different types of influenza virus strains can be used in the formulation of mRNA-1010. Also notice that the Patent application was filed back in January 2022: this means that the laboratory work to perform the experiments, aggregate data, analyze the data, and so on, was begun years before the application submission.
However, Moderna has ALREADY applied for a Trade Mark (TM) for mRNA-1010, under the brand name mFLUSIVA. The application was submitted on 27 February 2026: https://uspto.report/TM/99674080. **** It was on 26 February 2026 that the European Medicines Agency (cited above) recommended the use of mCOMBRIAX (mFLUSIVA + mNEXSPIKE combination “vaccine”) in the European Union.
It appears that, in Yours Truly’s opinion, Moderna is performing “all the right moves” in order to ensure that mRNA-1010 (mFLUSIVA) is approved by the FDA for use in the United States as soon as possible. This includes, apparently, maneuvering to have Dr. Vinay Prasad (who refused the BLA application for mRNA-1010 in February 2026) removed from his position at the FDA. Per the Kingston Report, cited above:
This “FDA meeting with Moderna” was the “Type A” meeting that Yours Truly wrote about in the Health Friday posts cited above.
Does the reader see how the game is played by Big Pharma? It appears that Moderna will not allow anyone to interfere with the company’s goal of getting mRNA-1010 (mFLUSIVA) through the FDA approval process and have the injectable ready for the United States 2026-2027 “flu season market”; and, also, that Moderna will not allow anyone to interfere with the company’s goal of getting mRNA-1083 (mCOMBRIAX) through the FDA approval process and have the injectable ready for the United States market as soon as possible.
