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!

Excellent analysis of the situation.
funny, I thought of him more like a disease than a symptom.
Maybe both? 😃
Yet another good reason not to consume kale.
There is a less serious but still-very-annoying parasite which is currently going around the mainland, called – somewhat ironically – “crypto” – that seems like a more likely threat right now. It’s hitting a variety of states that are near and dear to many of us.

BTW, ivermectin is unlikely to have much effect on this one, but there are plenty of other good treatments, and many people beat it with their immune systems.
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.
CDC — Clinical Overview of Cyclosporiasis
If you do not test for it you do not find it. — well that may explain CA.
Key points
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.
Chlorine Dioxide can be very effective against parasites. You can get the 3000 ppm here. https://kvlab.com/

and

start low and slow to avoid a miserable die off
I would have to wonder if CA would intentionally suppress medical information that would indicate the number of illegals.
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.
Explain why, please.
I thought the same thing immediately! It took a bit for it to make sense, but it does.
First of all, these are not multicellular parasites – they are protozoa – basically big cells. Secondly, the drug has the same mechanism of action in both bacteria and protozoa – messing with the metabolism of folic acid.

SCOTUS Wire
@scotus_wire
President Trump has indicated that the United States will seek rehearing of the Supreme Court’s ruling on birthright citizenship.
Rule 44 allows 25 days to seek rehearing. It requires the support of at least one Justice from the majority, and is rarely granted.
Cont…
This would be a good time to make that less rare.
yup…I think he will.
this decision is ATROCIOUS!
Clarence Thomas or Samuel Alito will rescue the United States. Coney Barrett will see the light, because she is at heart a people-pleaser, and the people are pissed!

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.
… 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.
WOW! Good job, YOUSE YOUTS!!!

The entire concept of “girl boss” is as ridiculous, subversive, and communist as would be the idea of a “boy boss”.
The immature people in an organization are the LAST people you want running things. They’re the FIRST people who get weeded out of good management.
The smart, Satanic evil of “”girl boss” keeps us fighting over the wrong thing, IMO. The more that a woman doesn’t fit the idea of “girl boss”, the more qualified she is.
If commies are too dumb to see 5 minutes into the future, then that explains why they need so many 5 year plans.
Love Trump’s answer RE communism!
Liz Wheeler – smart girl.
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.
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.
I will agree with ya ….so many lost minds these days!
And it can’t be the VAX!!!

Reflex disbelief is as bad as reflex belief. Which is why the satanists and CIA/Mossad (often the same people) try to push shiny objects of bad skepticism, like flat earth, injected nano-robots, etc. Getting us to believe DIFFERENT nonsense is their Plan B.

True. IMO she’s a second-rate criminal – still “good enough at being bad” to get by, but not first-rate. And I think that’s why she was labeled “Twister” – leaving a clearly-connected path of destruction in her wake, where other criminals don’t get connected to their crimes.

One of the things I love about Trump attacking Spain, is that he’s exposing London, Brussels, and all the rest. Spain is basically a socialist lapdog of the Cabal – not paying for NATO, yet constantly yammering in favor of whatever the Eurobosses need, especially Ukraine colonialism, etc. Trump is making the Spanish socialists pay the price of being a proxy for the European elite, not only against America, but against the people of Spain.
He says it so beautifully and so concisely.

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.

Please run this guy for POTUS 2028.
I’m sure he can smash Vance by 20 points.
LOL!!!
After smashing him by 40 points, President Vance can make Shapiro ambassador to Israel, and guarantee himself a second term!
Shapiro generally avoids exposing anything that looks like naked ambition, but at this point (particularly after October 7) he’s in “anything for Israel” mode, and “taqiya that may or may not succeed” is on the table. He will say what the radicals need, if he can get into a place that can ultimately stop the abandonment of Israel by the left.
Shapiro is always Israel First down deep. If America has to stop being America to save Israel (or so he thinks), that’s OK.
Plan A – be what he’s been – moderate left
Plan B – say he’ll do the radicals’ bidding
Plan C – do the radicals’ bidding
It’s very important to understand his motivation. Remember – much of Israel is very OK with a packed SCOTUS and a DSA America, and the rest doesn’t care too much. Support for Bibi and the right is (IMO) fairly independent of American things, as long as those things are not obviously connected to Israel’s fortune or misfortune.
Not sure that Shapiro has much of a chance, except he may be hoping to get into a Democrat cabinet, which would be a smart plan on his part.
he’s an idiot and a terrible governor.

JUST IN: The US is considering SEIZING Kharg Island, which is the MAIN sea port for Iran’s oil exports
30 MILLION barrels of oil are stored there, and 90% of their oil exports come through there.
“We attacked Kharg Island last night. We knocked out a piece. I said, ‘don’t touch the oil, because maybe we’ll take over Kharg Island.’
We may take over Kharg Island. And there’s not a THING they can do about it.”
Stop fucking talking about it, and do it.
Sorry, I’m in a bit of a mood.
It’s OK. Moods happen!
Trump talking is part of the doing! This is a long process. These Iranian regime guys are the toughest “boss” that Trump has had to face yet.
I agree. patience is not my strong suit.
Reporter: “Does this mean talks with Iran will not resume?”
President Trump: “I don’t care. They can talk, but I think they’re wasting their time. They’re a bunch of lying guys. My whole life, that’s all I do is deals… And I deal with these guys, and I say this is from a different school. They’re liars. They’re cheats. They’re sick people.”
“Frankly, I don’t want to waste my time with them… I don’t like these people.”
well, he gave them a chance. they demonstrated to the WORLD that they are not good to their word. POTUS has done everything he could to bring this to a peaceful resolution, but they do not seek peace…only time to rebuild to attack again.
Finish it!
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.
Trump hates war, and I’m sure this is painful for him – but he knows that THEY (the Cabal and the Iranian regime) know that – so Trump has to have infinite patience – and with God, that is possible.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: “It’s an escalation—but it’s also an escalation that can help lead to an end.”

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. For fruit or veggies with a peel or rind (think bananas, mangos, pumpkins, etc.), rinse thoroughly before consuming.”

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.”

✟
“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.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ABUSED, MISSING, AND TRAFFICKED CHILDREN
BE MY VOICE
CHILD NOT CHOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
MAPA = MAKE AMERICA PRAY AGAIN
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

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.
