Dear MAGA: 20260709 ✾ Thank God ± Theistic Evolution ∈ Thursday Open Topic


This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!

Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.


Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!

Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.

The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.

And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.

And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.

OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.

  • No food fights.
  • No running with scissors.
  • If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.


If there is nothing beyond the “W” below, then this is a placeholder. For health reasons, I can’t always post a timely opinion before each Thursday, but I will try. Otherwise, you have this placeholder post, where YOU provide the content. Enjoy!

W


More parasite scare-porn that you need to see.

This is a nasty one. Prevention is the way to go. Killing the worms in your brain with a drug can make things worse.

Also, this is a perfect demonstration of how the modern DEI medical system doesn’t listen, doesn’t learn, and will let you die. YOU are responsible for educating the docs, I’m sorry to say.

Be careful out there.

I do not know if it was the same thing or a version, but a lot of folks in the SE experienced a digestive illness about a month ago with similar symptoms that lasted about 48 hours.

CDC has a map of where the outbreaks are.

https://www.cdc.gov/cyclosporiasis/php/surveillance/index.html#cdc_generic_section_2-surveillance

Looks to me like it is found in HIGH ILLEGAL STATES.
Texas, Illinois and New York have the highest counts. None reported in CA.

Gail Combs

CDC — Clinical Overview of Cyclosporiasis
If you do not test for it you do not find it. — well that may explain CA.
Key points

  • Cyclosporiasis is an intestinal infection that spreads when people ingest food or water contaminated with stool.
  • Cyclosporiasis can be treated with an antibiotic regimen of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX).
  • Because testing for Cyclospora is not routinely conducted in most US laboratories, healthcare providers may have to specifically request testing for it.

Prevention

The best way for people to prevent infection is to avoid consuming food or water that may be contaminated with stool. Travelers to cyclosporiasis-endemic areas should be aware that although food and water precautions for Cyclospora are similar to precautions for other intestinal pathogens, Cyclospora is unlikely to be killed by routine chemical disinfection or sanitizing methods. Symptomatic reinfection can occur.

SO how in Hades is US produce getting infected with human feces??

More likely it’s illegal pot farms where illegals are working off their smuggling debt.

The reporting is voluntary. I had a go round about that with the USDA lying thru their teeth to get the Food Safety Modernization Act passed. The farmers at the hearing used my food illness chart that showed the incidences spiked after HACCP was substituted for actual USDA inspection.

HACCP uses a corporation’s inspections and paperwork as a substitute for third party (USDA) inspection.

Why would an antibiotic be used to treat a parasitic infection? That seems odd to me.

Within the past few days, Google installed a requirement to use their “Google Play” app to see / hear any video embedded in X posts.

I can read the text, but I’m blocked from everything else.

Google is a subsidiary of Meta, yes? There is a $1.4 TRILLION lawsuit for allowing minors to access adult content (and other purposely addictive content: psy-ops), causing mental health harm.

It’s been going on for quite a few years now, yet Zuck allowed it. The $1.4 T is roughly equal to Meta’s entire current capitalization.

I’d love to see it go down.

Btw, does everyone know that Zuck’s *real* surname is “Greenberg”?

As is his brother’s – Snowden.

Since reluctantly joining X about a year ago, glad I did.

Have never posted an original X. Prolly posted three or four comments to an X. Plenty of X reposts.

  1. I find X a wealth of information MORE TIMELY THAT ANY OTHER SOURCES.
  2. Yes, like EVERY source, vetting the information is key.
  3. No downside to joining X that I can see.

>>> It may be worth a try. Even to easily view X videos.

YMMV.

Nick Sortor:

JD Vance announces the Trump admin has launched a FULL-SCALE CRACKDOWN on H-1B fraud, with DOZENS of subpoenas sent out and investigations launched

“Big corporations and fraudsters overseas are using this program to undercut the wages of AMERICAN workers.”

“American jobs ought to go to American workers and NOT foreign fraudsters, and the Department of Labor is fighting back against it”

TradeBait2

I wish more people, including business owners, figured it out. Cheap labor migrates and drops out of the workforce regularly. They may be competent for five minutes before moving on and as a owner/manager you lose.

Investing time, training and money into employee development at all levels, including janitors and such, leads to workforce stability and improved performance. When you have the latter you can take advantage of opportunities and acquisitions. You need less staffing to accomplish far more. This is true at all levels of an org.

So get the illegals and fraudsters out of here and go back to investing into American workers at every level. Start doing that while they are still in school. If there are labor shortages for non-skilled jobs, stringently vet and allocate slots from cooperating foreign nations that send people in through the front door and will assist with the exiting process if the laborers are no longer needed or desired.

pgroup2

… will assist with the exiting process if the laborers are no longer needed …

DJT said they aren’t sending their best.

But they should realize [India in particular] that repatriating its citizens means bringing them back along with everything they’ve learned in America. How can that not help India and every other country?

In other words, it’s a win-win for both sides.

Firefighters in Wisconsin are hailing 5 teenage boys as HEROES after they BUSTED DOWN A DOOR TO A BURNING HOME to save a 91-year-old elderly couple and their family on July 4th.

When firefighters arrived, they discovered the boys had already rescued ALL SIX PEOPLE inside the home.

According to investigators, the boys noticed what they thought was a bonfire from their home.

As they walked closer, they saw a home was on fire and started banging on the doors and windows and heard people yelling.

The group of boys BROKE DOWN THE DOOR, ran into the home, called out for the victims and rescued all them.

“We started calling out for people and asking if anybody was in there. And then we ended up getting quite a bit of responses. There ended up being five or six people in the house…”

“…you are kind of just feeling around, yelling, and then I heard a couple in the room on the left. So I went in there and got them out.”

As the last person stepped out of the home, the flames intensified.

I was talking to a very smart conservative friend yesterday, about how Covid has ruined the world.

We concurred that a large majority on both sides have lost their minds. The left has TDS; to right has lost all trust for anything, and consequently thinks everything is a conspiracy.

Trump is not the devil; every event is not some dark rabbit hole.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

MollyPitcher5

Not a bad conclusion except everything that DJT has been forced to fight for years has been lies. Lies with top drawer architects and at times willing “witnesses” or “victims”. The conspiracies have lasted years and only now are some of them being debunked . J6 was a terrible conspiracy that they used and imprisoned so many.
Conservatives suspected the lies, fought to expose them and every single day we really do have to try to verify all sensational claims which does make us appear paranoid.

BRIGADIER GENERAL BLAINE D. HOLT > Air Force > Biography Display
Gen. Holt is [was] the Deputy United States Military Representative to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). 

Given his former position, it is very interesting to see what Gen. Holt has to say.

scott467( scott467)  July 9, 2026 01:18

I just watched it, that was excellent.

Just one of several great exchanges, in this one, Gen. Holt practically summarizes, in just a few paragraphs, much of what Promethean has been saying for years:

.

(15:47) Rich: “But what the European Union and the UK are out to do is to impose their will on other nations. So Trump has to take them on. No, you don’t get to tell us how our energy what our energy policy should be.”

 

Gen. Holt: “They’re used to it, though. They’re used to telling us what to do, because this has been for too long now a synthetic colonization that’s over a hundred years old, of the United States.

 

The red coats lost at Yorktown. They came back for round two. They lost there. And then the financialists took over. And then the globalists did what they did, starting with our industrialist, Wall Street link up, uh, Woodrow Wilson, the sham 16th amendment, the sham 17th amendment, our taxation, and our the way we pick Senators.

 

And then it just goes deeper and deeper into, because now MI6 is born, 1903, and then we start to see the foundations and the formation of their army called the Deep State. And this extends across all these intelligence agencies.

 

And this is why they have successfully played both sides against the other. But they just synthetically colonized the United States. It’s no accident that the Royal Institute of International Affairs and Chattam House have had the American President-to-be come out and genuflect with them, and everybody’s done that, except for Trump.

 

And it’s no accident that the the President has been in the target of many assassins bullets by now. They don’t want to win this war. They have been in power since the fall of Rome, and they’ve been in every different incarnation. Well, here they are.

 

Ursula is sitting there wondering if the synthetic colonization of the United States is going to hold. Well, you know what? They’re five steps behind him. Like I said, they think this (NATO) Summit’s about money. They’re that’s absolutely ridiculous. And you know, my thought is that as Europe starts to fall into civil wars in some cases, and potentially even where you’re at right now, the cry will come out again, America, come save us.

 

And we will. But again, it’s going to be under very different terms. And what I think, once President Trump gets our domestic affairs over the hump, and that means whatever plan he’s got to take a wire scrubber to all of the infiltration in our government at federal, state and local levels from everything that has tentacles that run through London.

 

Once he’s done that, well then we’ll be in a much stronger position to lend a hand.”

WATCH: Tennessee Train Conductor Fired After Triggering Woke Passengers With Epic July 4 Message
A seasonal railway conductor for Tennessee’s Incline Railway at Lookout Mountain has been fired after making now-viral comments, wishing riders a happy Independence Day, which triggered some passengers.

The conductor, identified as Jack Peterson, is clearly fed up with mass migration policies that are ruining our country. He hilariously told passengers on the Fourth of July, “To the very, very few Americans in here, happy Independence Day.”

He continued, “To the rest of you, welcome to the greatest country on the face of the planet, and if you disagree, you can leave.”

The strategic strike directly disables the Iranian military’s ability to monitor, track, and coordinate coastal maritime movements in the Gulf of Oman, close to the Pakistan border. While the primary commercial harbor infrastructure—including terminals operated under foreign trade agreements—remains structurally isolated from the targets, the destruction of the control tower systematically cripples the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ (IRGC) regional coastal surveillance and maritime interception capabilities in the area.

By neutralizing this critical command-and-control node, Washington is demonstrating its absolute resolve to eliminate any tactical infrastructure capable of threatening or restricting international shipping lanes and commercial transit.

It’s frustrating to me that Trump had to “demonstrate to the world” that Iran won’t keep their word, when there is fifty years of evidence of that fact.

true…but many, here (in the US) as well, were labeling him a war monger–eager to kill and destroy.
And I think he demonstrated patience (misplaced or not) and a willingness to negotiate–honestly negotiate– but he will do what he must to secure this country. If that means blowing Iran off the map, shrug, he has given them ample opportunities for peace. they chose the FA part.
i don’t think he wants a legacy of being a destroyer–he’s a builder–but some times, the building is too damaged to renovate–some times you just got to bring it all to the ground and start over.

Great points. People forget what is past. They are being shown in real time that Iran has been given every opportunity, and they have not dealt in good faith in this current situation. That’s on them, not PDJT. Your analogy about his being a builder is spot on.

Oh, let me tell you about the farmer’s markets on the Big Island of Hawaii!

For one thing, I discovered that a whole lot of the produce they sell comes from Costco. Yes, true. There are a lot of veggies that just won’t grow on Hawaii.

We also did NOT know about the slug trail slime until we had lived on the Big Island for over a year.

Hawaii DOES NOT ADVERTISE any negative aspect of the Islands. Ambulances don’t use sirens so you can’t hear them. There was a giant theft of weapons from a gun shop while I lived there. I only heard it through the grape vine, it was not reported in media. Anything that might disturb the tourists is ignored.

Hawaii is second world at best, and third world in some places.

P.S. I use raw kale in smoothies. Pro tip: I freeze it first. It makes a better, colder smoothie, and it keeps longer. And guess what?

“Rinsing produce under running water and drying is the best way to remove any parasites from your veggies. Boiling, steaming, and sauteeing veggies for at least 3-5 minutes will kill any lingering larvae. Freezing produce for 48 hours is also effective.

“Ambulances don’t use sirens so you can’t hear them.”

Read similar statement. Then I realized.

Three years on Oahu. The ONLY siren I ever recalled hearing was Fire Paramedics, responding to home across the street. Toddler boy in distress of sorts. Son of local LE.

PSYCHOPATH ERDOGAN GAVE NATO LEADERS LOADED REVOLVERS.
According to reports, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan presented NATO leaders with personalized revolvers as diplomatic gifts during the summit—and the guns were loaded.
One Belgian delegation reportedly only discovered the firearm and ammunition after landing back in Belgium, then handed them over to airport police. Who gives loaded guns as diplomatic gifts?

Maybe it was a hint.

muslim candidate doesn’t want anyone knowing how rich he is and wants more time to file financial disclosure statements (until after the primary) because of his wife’s and her family assets abroad.
FTA

El-Sayed has been under fire from his Democratic primary opponent, Representative Haley Stevens, after he requested an extension to file his 2026 financial disclosures until after the Senate primary. Stevens has argued that voters should have access to the information in the disclosure before choosing a candidate.
Speaking with journalist Mehdi Hasan, El-Sayed dismissed the criticism, saying the delay stemmed from complicated tax documents. 
“My wife and her family own property abroad, so getting all those tax forms is a thing,” he said.
He also responded to criticism by Stevens of him being a millionaire, saying, “Well, if, if you take my assets and her, my, my wife’s assets together, then I guess they add up to something like that.”

Good morning, C&C, it’s Thursday! Your roundup includes: reality star Spencer Pratt declares war on election fraud in a nine-minute selfie that makes every paid consultant in the country look like an intern; Graham Platner tearfully selfie-quits the Maine Senate race, and Democrats reveal their bold plan to replace him with a “nominating convention” featuring one small tweak — the voters don’t get a vote; President Trump, seated cheerfully beside NATO’s Mark Rutte, orders all trade with Spain cut off, “including visits”; and a growing band of Americans armed with angle grinders begins quietly liberating their towns from AI surveillance cameras, forcing this publication to issue an urgent public-safety advisory we’d very much like you to ignore.

Nicole Wootten-Cane:

Looking to speak to a legal expert on the Online Safety Act urgently (ideally this morning) on the looming 4Chan/Ofcom fine deadline and what happens next. Please email nicole.wootton-cane@independent.co.uk if you can help. Thank you!

Preston Byrne:

Hi, I’m their lawyer. It will be a cold day in Hell before my client pays that fine. Ofcom won’t be collecting it unless they’re prepared to land ground troops in America, overthrow our government, and rescind our constitutional order by force.

Hope that helps!

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 Thursday, July 9, 2026

“Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.”

2 Thessalonians 2:15 (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR 2 THESSALONIANS 2:15

Cautions against the error that the time of Christ’s coming was just at hand. There would first be a general apostacy from the faith, and a revealing of the antichristian man of sin. (1-4) His destruction, and that of those who obey him. (5-12) The security of the Thessalonians from apostacy; an exhortation to stedfastness, and prayer for them. (13-17)

13-15 When we hear of the apostacy of many, it is a great comfort and joy, that there is a remnant according to the election of grace, which does and shall persevere; especially we should rejoice, if we have reason to hope that we are of that number. The preservation of the saints, is because God loved them with an everlasting love, from the beginning of the world. The end and the means must not be separated. Faith and holiness must be joined together as well as holiness and happiness. The outward call of God is by the gospel; and this is rendered effectual by the inward working of the Spirit. The belief of the truth brings the sinner to rely on Christ, and so to love and obey him; it is sealed by the Holy Spirit upon his heart. We have no certain proof of any thing having been delivered by the apostles, more than what we find contained in the Holy Scriptures. Let us then stand fast in the doctrines taught by the apostles, and reject all additions, and vain traditions.

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.

SHOW US HOW

Getting close to God a prolonged process
The first thing we must do is get access
His love letter to us many books long
Holds knowledge that shows how to belong

Instructions are there for daily study
No need for an interpreter or a buddy
Just let the Spirit of God be your guide 
He is the counsel that resides inside

Everything you need to know about life
Is detailed and methodical and rife
With history and stories and promises
Situations and sound assurances 

What does God expect and want us to do
His commandments will give us a clue
When we have covered and agreed to all
There is one more Jesus gave to recall

The Bible talks about sin and its peril
How we must repent of what is feral
The consequence of sin is surely death
Separation from God for eternity breath

God loves us so much He left us the key
The instructions and protections to be
Holy as He is holy for it we must strive
Each hour of each day we are alive

Show us how, Lord, to be better than best
To be what you need long before we rest
To serve You in any way that You ask
Willingly and ably up to the task

NEW: Erika Kirk’s legal team has filed a motion seeking to have all evidence presented in the Charlie Kirk murder case against Tyler Robinson made available to the public.

That way people who are open-minded can see the evidence for themselves and realize just how vile and off base people like Candace Owens are.
