Dear MAGA: 20260716 ✾ TRUST THE PLAN ✾ Thursday Open Topic


Sometimes you have to have faith.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Plan!


We have created this site as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions. This is a place where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This particular thread is – for the moment – TRUST THE PLAN Thursday. You are welcome to say what you think, in a civil and courteous manner that loves your neighbor. Free speech matters! Courteous speech makes it happen.

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.

You are you. AI is AI. Keep your identity. Don’t “Borg Out” on us!

And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.

That was stolen from Wheatie.

Let’s steal her rules, too.

  • 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.



Looking Forward

This will be my last post of “the prior styles” as we move forward from the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of this great nation.

Trump will have a big announcement tonight – let’s see what it is!

In the meanwhile, I have some announcements. Some of them will be tonight. Some will follow the announcements by our CIC. Our POTUS. Our TRUMP.

I will be changing the style of my opens on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. What that style will be, I’m not quite sure yet. The style WILL be shorter and more current in topic. It will often surround a single idea. It may have elements of homage to older styles, or I may do completely novel things. It will be more of a surprise. In some ways, it will likely go back to the style of my very first posts, like this one – THE very first post.

If one or two of you wish to join me, I am willing to hand off one or two of these opens to others. Otherwise, I will do all three of them myself.

If I miss an open, meaning I have not created one by noon of that day, then I am counting on others to create one for me, in my absence. As I said, wait until noon.

We may have small changes in mission, as we go forward, but they will not be fundamental.

One of our mission orders just came through! As you can see, there is no change in that part of the mission.

Just to make sure you can see that…..


Looking Back

I just love this video! And yes – it is AI out the wazoo! It is also a masterwork in art, science, propaganda, inspiration, political commentary, and history. I could talk about it all day. But not right now.

It inspired some interesting added AI artwork, which you can see in the replies to the tweet above.

The video brings up many ideas for discussion. There are quite a few of the more obvious “Q” connections – I will leave those for continued discussion by the “usual suspects” of the anon community. Gail and TheseTruths have already brought forth some of those sources for examination, and I’m actually impressed by how quickly and clearly that thinking is being communicated and shared. The “general population Q followers” – a.k.a. “the anons” are surprisingly coherent on this stuff.

I am more interested in some underlying ideas which will be the topics of upcoming posts.


Further discussion of our mission is also coming. I can tell you one thing about our mission right now. It is not over.

Enjoy the show! And if you want a bigger part in it, you know where to find me, and what to do!

I think he may be onto something this time.

Kurt: “The point here is not the bad judgment of one dumb liberal woman from America. The point is the bad judgment of an enormous number of dumb liberal women from all over the West.

These self-righteous crones are a pestilence, a plague upon Western society, a group of doggedly ignorant feminist/chauvinists playing out their personal psychodramas on the world stage whose antics, if unchecked, will inevitably lead to the fall of civilization.

___________

Clearly he’s been reading my posts…

pgroup2

Plagiarism is the most sincere form of flattery which is … something I don’t remember. Brain malfunction.

scott467

Picking up with the very next paragraph from Kurt’s article: “Too extreme? Look around you at what’s going on. These creatures range from the ridiculous blue-haired faildaughters with gender studies degrees and a career in baristaing, to the gray-maned boomer women reeking of patchouli and sexual dissatisfaction at your local No Kings rally, to Angela Merkel, the German chancellor who decided she needed to shut down Europe’s greatest economic power’s entire energy industry even as she was importing most of the Third World with utterly predictable rapey consequences.”

_____________

Reminds me of an old video that was in my ‘suggested videos’ list today, an interview by a male podcast host who was talking with someone named Louise Perry.

Apparently she’s a british journalist with a different spin on feminism, but she sounded like every other feminist in the short segment I watched.

The interviewer said “Now in a post me-too world where we’re worried about women’s safety, especially sexually…”  

Clearly no one in Western society is ‘worried’ about women’s ‘sexual safety’ today, and it’s easy to prove. 

If anyone was actually worried, liberal white women, in particular, wouldn’t be encouraging, facilitating and advocating on behalf of the 3rd world islamic invasion of Western countries. 
 
So they can lie to themselves about ‘sexual safety’ concerns all they want, but when liberal white women are advocating the importing of r@pists and murderers by the TENS of MILLIONS, including literal Pakistani R@PE gangs in the UK, you can be sure that ‘sexual safety’ is the furthest thing from their warped feminist minds.
 
They can lie to themselves, if that’s what gets them through the night — but don’t lie to me.

Like he’s going down a list, checking every box! 😂

Kurt: “If you’re looking for policy that’s not just bad but civilization-shakingly bad, there’s a better-than-even chance there’ll be women-identifying women behind it.

Orwell called it in “1984”: “It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy.”

If it’s a bad idea, chances are there’s a chick behind it.”

… chick …

A real blast from the past. A most useful word for the high pitched nasal voices so common in those days.

scott467

Throwing more bombs, right on target!

Kurt: “And that includes empowering the trans nonsense — do you think for a minute that dudes with the whole sausage shelf swinging would ever be allowed in women’s locker rooms if there weren’t significant numbers of high-status women demanding it?

Do you imagine that the majority of men would refuse a majority of women who were demanding we exclude these perverts?

Hell no — the guys would look at the women as if they were crazy, asking, “Wait, there are dudes doing what?” and out would come the torches n’ pitchforks.

But, in fact, it’s women who demand that these creeps be allowed to invade women’s intimate spaces and women who demand that these mutants dominate women’s sports.

Not all women, but enough high-status and influential ones to make it happen. Remember, the only thing these broken women hate more than men is unbroken women.

scott467

This may be his best article ever… 😂

Kurt: “This is the cue for critics to whine and complain because I’m talking about the specific and particular failures of women.

Remember, we must pretend that every specific group, except straight white dudes who believe in Jesus and normal genders, each provides its own wonderful and unique attributes to the beautiful tapestry that is diversity.

And yet, while we’re required to pretend that each group has uniquely compelling good points, even where the evidence demonstrates to the contrary, we’re also required to pretend that none of them has uniquely compelling negative points.

Well, when women screw up, they often screw up in a uniquely female way.

And, at the risk of being called a sexist oppressor even harder than usual — because they’re always going to call you a sexist oppressor — that’s the truth, and it’s irrelevant that some feminist doxie cries when she hears it.

cthulhu

I knew you’d like it.

Gail Combs

What pisses me off is that a strong woman is immediately labeled as one of these THINGS.

“I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat, or a prostitute.” [1913]

Rebecca West, The Young Rebecca: Writings, 1911-1917

Aubergine

I call myself a “real” feminist.

I’ve never understood, ever, why a woman, given all the unique and wonderful gifts that we were given by God, would want to pretend to be a man. We carry Creation in our bodies for nine months, for goodness sake. What could be more powerful than that?

Makes no sense to this girl.

Well, I am unavoidably partial to my own thoughts… 😁

Reminds me of and exchange from House, M.D.

………………………..
Dr. Cuddy: “How is it that you always assume you’re right?” 

Dr. House: “I don’t. I just find it hard to operate on the opposite assumption.”

Which is followed by:

Dr. House: “And why are you so afraid of making a mistake?” 

Dr. Cuddy: “Because I’m a doctor. Because when we make mistakes, people die.”
………………………..

Always with the drama… 😂

Valerie Curren

Was Greg more distracted by her mind or her boobs?

scott467

No idea, I never did understand what possible attraction he could have for Cuddy. I thought she was horrible, the worst character on the show.

Jennifer Morrison (Dr. Allison Cameron) was my favorite 😁

They were attractive AND complex–fun!

____________

Their characters were both train wrecks… 😁

From the pilot episode, titled “Everybody Lies”:

Context: Dr. House is explaining to his new team why he hired them. After revealing he hired Foreman for his criminal record and Chase because of his father, Cameron challenges him about her own qualifications, listing her academic achievements. 

The Full Exchange:

Dr. Cameron: I worked very hard to get where I am.

Dr. House: But you didn’t have to. People choose the paths that grant them the greatest rewards for the least amount of effort. That’s the law of nature, and you defied it. That’s why I hired you.

You could have married rich, could have been a model, you could have just shown up and people would have given you stuff. Lots of stuff, but you didn’t; you worked your stunning little ass off.

Dr. Cameron: Am I supposed to be flattered?

Dr. House: Gorgeous women do not go to medical school. Unless they’re as damaged as they are beautiful. Were you abused by a family member?

Dr. Cameron: No.

Dr. House: Sexually assaulted?

Dr. Cameron: No.

Dr. House: But you are damaged, aren’t you?

(Cameron hesitates, and in that moment her pager goes off. She leaves without answering.)

Valerie Curren

I Love the House show & have watched it completely twice now. For some reason I can relate to Greg House’s pain, isolation, sarcasm, & more. He helps me get in touch with stuff I keep mostly locked away. God works that way on me at times. I can’t directly face my own stuff easily, especially when cauterizing pain to survive. Empathizing w/ a character sometimes gets that soul blockage moving. God speaks our language even when we think we aren’t paying direct attention to Him 🙂

Valerie Curren

The Cuddy actress, Lisa Edelstein, iirc, played an interesting character in The Kaminski Method, I think it was called, with Michael Douglas & Alan Arkin. That was a pretty neat show, Amazon Prime, I think. Her character on that was a mess 🙂

I’m only halfway through, and he’s just getting wound up 🤣

Kurt: “Now, of course, men also screw up in their own uniquely compelling male ways. Take what just happened in Maine.

We have both Herr Oystergruppenführer, a guy who appears almost as a parody of toxic masculinity, as well as the up-talking femboy socialist consultant who thought that this was just the guy to take on that fascist demon Susan Collins.

Maybe he thought that a red flag was a good thing; after all, he was a communist.

But the subject at hand is women and how women screw up, and women do screw up even if saying so ticks off the girlbosses.

scott467

A lot of these quotes are gonna leave a mark… at least they oughta

Kurt: “At the individual level, we see how Platneresque convicts on death row are often inundated with mash notes from women on the outside. When they finally get led over to Old Sparky, you always read about how the wife they married while in prison sobbed to the reporter about how their three-named monster hubby was really a wonderful and gentle soul, totally oblivious to the four people he chopped up with an axe after robbing them for $12.

The unfortunate Jamey Carney is akin to these nitwits. She was living in New York and the mother of a 13-year-old daughter, but then Trump came along, and she was so mad at him that she decided to move to the Emerald Isle.

At a Palestinian protest, of course, she met Ahmad Al-Saqar, a 28-year-old dude also living in Ireland — on the dole, naturally — and they fell in love. Well, she fell in love. He beat her brains out around July 7-8. Gee, how could this fairytale romance have gone so wrong?

Writ larger, she was one of those ridiculous ladies who stand there with a sign that says, “Refugees Welcome,” demanding that even more perverted Third World peasants flood her country. Like gays for Palestine, it’s a societal suicide pact that they somehow think they’re exempt from.

The numbers are undeniable. The majority of rapes in Europe are linked to migrants, even though they make up less than 10 percent of the population in many countries.

But does that stop liberal women? No, it probably encourages them. Oh, I don’t think they want to be raped and beaten to death personally, but I think that they believe, at some level, that members of their own society deserve that fate.

They believe their societies are evil, which naturally makes them the heroines in the young adult novel that is their lives, and they’re trying to atone for it by this ritual humiliation and sacrifice.”

scott467

Kurt: “You see this all the time, with ridiculous lefty women demanding that we defund the police and close prisons while female judges sentence violent psychopaths to probation. They cast it as mercy and grace, but it’s not.

They’re seeking to punish the rest of us for the sins they have adjudicated us guilty of committing as a society. In other words, they know full well the damage they’re doing. It’s intentional. It’s penance.

Some, like Carney, have convinced themselves that their advocacy for the destruction of their own society will give them a free pass. They simply don’t understand that the foreigners they adore as the avengers of all the myriad wrongs they attribute to their own society hold them, correctly, in utter contempt.

Rosa

Very insightful psychological explanation – “They’re seeking to punish the rest of us for the sins they have adjudicated us guilty of committing as a society.”

They might deny that they consciously think that but it sure explains the seeming insanity of it all!

patfrederick

mercy for the guilty is punishment for the victim.

scott467

Rounding third and heading for home plate.

Kurt: “Ahmad Al-Saqar always despised the late Ms. Carney for her weakness and stupidity, just like these savages always despise their Western cheerleaders for their weakness and stupidity. When she annoyed him, he murdered her because that’s what happens in his garbage culture.

Ms. Carney could not conceive of that because she grew up in a civilized culture, one created, ordered, and defended by the kind of strong American males she holds in such contempt. It’s only in such a society that she and the other liberal wine women so despise that her brand of ideological frivolity cannot merely survive, but flourish.

Yet, as soon as they encounter the barbarians outside the gate that she and her friends want to cast open to the invaders, they are suddenly outside the protection they have known all their lives.

They can act the fool while people they hate watch over them and protect them, but once they put themselves in a position where the men of the West can’t protect them anymore, they are subject to all the consequences of their choices.

And that’s why Jamey Carney is dead.

It’s sad for her, but it’s infinitely sadder for our society as a whole. Again, we have only a finite amount of sincere caring allocated to us. At some point, people need to learn not to put their hands on the stove. Yet they’re happy to risk being burned as long as the rest of us go up in flames.

For that reason, we should devote the same amount of sincere caring to her and her ilk as they devote to us.”

scott467

When she annoyed him, he murdered her because that’s what happens in his garbage culture.

The things Leftist women routinely say and do in the West today are inconceivable to the islamic mind.

They used to be inconceivable to the Western mind, too.

It’s not hard to imagine what likely happened. He said or did something she didn’t like, and she went off on him like a shrieking Karen. Wouldn’t surprise me if she slapped him or hit him or threw something at him, too — though I’m sure it would have surprised Ahmad.

A child understands a physical mismatch inherently — or if not, learns it very early.

Many women in the West seem to have completely wiped from their minds the reality that most men could end their lives in seconds, with their bare hands.

So they have no respect for the physical strength of men at all. They think they are untouchable, that they can do anything or say anything to a man’s face, thanks to Western men who have always put up with and taken their abuse without physical retaliation.

So they have been conditioned to think that no man will ever retaliate.

Until she meets a man who does.

And that’s the last man some of them ever meet.

Especially if he happens to be from Stanstanistan.

Nah – I would say you fit right in with most American males and females. Which is the majority of the American population since we are a Christian and republic based nation. I feel for those who have been negatively influenced and impacted by their dumbassery.

The Feminist BS that Scott and now Kurt rails against is more evil clown creation BS. They take their orders from the Satanic side. Being anti-God and anti morality always leads people to death and destruction. It makes them more stupid. Always.

Women that want to dominate society are frustrated losers. That’s not what God intended for their lives. The role for women is in The Book. It is a cherished, honored and protected role by the Creator of everything. Women who do not accept that role are headed for destruction 100% of the time. The same for men not accepting theirs. Sometimes it is sudden, sometimes long and grueling, sometimes a train wreck you can see coming.

We have a close family member with mental illness that developed from going that route. It has been long and grueling to observe, but is clearly leading to the train wreck. We have done all we can to show her a better way to no avail. We hate it, but accept that one chooses what one chooses. She is not allowed to bring her dumbassery into our home. She can visit, but has to live the wacko shiz outside or be exited to the door and she knows it. As a result, visits are few.

as a woman, even I feel no sympathy or empathy towards leftist women. Women can be strong, without being militant. We can be outspoken without being a raging lunatic. And we can be soft without being a marshmallow.
But trying to act like a man? be like a man? that just erases the woman inside.

Gail Combs

Point Blank WE ARE NOT MEN PERIOD.

Our brain is wired differently and we are built differently. Should women with the aptitude be allowed into jobs? Sure, but some jobs, like FIREFIGHTERS, FIGHTING SOLDIERS and STREET COPS are best left to men. Working in support positions to free up the men? That is fine.

As an illustration:
Just before the 2016 election and before DISQUS tossed me, I had an interesting conversation with a female Marine on American Thinker.

She was strong enough to carry those ?80? pound backpacks for a while, but because of the difference in how our thigh bones attach to the pelvic structure, her hips finally gave out. The ANGLE is different.

What I find interesting is the illustration of the difference between a man’s pelvis and a woman’s we talked about, has CHANGED since then until they look almost the same. The angle of the upper thigh bone connecting to the pelvis is a LOT different in women because we are built to bare children and NOT to run down game and carry it back to the camp.

Here are the ‘updated’ illustrations via brave.

Be an outlier all you want, as long as the Q-tree branch upon which you’re perching is stout enough to hold your weight.

Gail Combs

Not an outlier.

One of the reasons for spanking is to teach actions have consequences. The left INSISTED that we have laws that protected people from the consequences of their actions starting with seat belt and helmet laws, safety seats for kids laws…. Until there are less and less chances for actions to have consequences culminating in ‘Safe Spaces’ No cost bail ==> defund the police and ban prisons.

Then there are the lawsuits against people when a child does something STUPID on their property IN FRONT OF THE PARENTS and the ONLY people NOT RESPONSIBLE are the parents. But the good Lord help you if you yell at the kid or actually touch him to prevent that accident. (Boy could I tell you stories…)

In the early 70s this was being passed around. I think I still have my copy. Again note it was the pviotal 70s.

Congressman Tim Burchett confirms on Joe Rogan that Bill Gates is behind the massive increase in ticks

Now we have a whistleblower who says pilots are being paid to drop ticks by aircraft

This matches accounts in America of tick boxes being found

“We are paid to spread ticks by air. It happens twice a year, early spring and early fall. This year we’ve been hired to do it earlier. The company receives the ticks in boxes. Each box contains millions of ticks. The aircraft used are generally single or dual prop aircraft, single pilot, and There’s one other passenger that handles the dispersal. It pays a lot, and I mean a lot.”

“Here we have a whistleblower saying that they are paid to disperse ticks across Canada. Now, this sounds eerily familiar to what we’re hearing about these boxes of ticks that are being found” in America

The Gates Foundation funded a biotech firm called Oxitec for research on genetically modifying cattle ticks

Farmers claim to be funding “boxes of ticks”on their properties

Lyme disease cases are skyrocketed right at the time when a Lyme disease vaccine is actively in the works

So without the ticks, they can’t sell their vaccines

You’ll never guess who’s making it, Pfizer and Valneva

https://x.com/Rodriramosdb2/status/2077351014651367427

We’ve sure had Way more problems with ticks on our family excursions to Northern Michigan in recent years, fwiw. Sometimes they literally drop out of the trees on us…

cthulhu

If they can survive in your area, get guinea fowl.

Valerie Curren

I wish but our Up North properties (Estate properties currently) do not have consistent human habitation so no one to manage said fowl, if they are even allowed to be kept in those areas per local laws. Thanks for the tip though 🙂

Unfortunately our foxes can climb trees. I watched one scale the 6 foot chain link fence and then the tree my guineas were roosting in. That was the end of the last of my guineas.

Yes, there is a certain spirit of lawlessness growing in this country. Very noticeable after decades of being away. If I don’t like a rule I just ignore it. From speed limits to ignoring church teaching on morality that I don’t like. From fudging at work to actively obstructing laws I don’t like and people enforcing those laws (ICE, locking up criminals, etc) even to killing them and cheering. Are we doomed?😧

The kitty I adopted got named Brad Purrsley by the young ladies at the HBSPCA. He’s got blue eyes and most days a big personality but he has been a little sick the last few days. I won’t give him any more milk though he really liked it. I thought of going to the vet but that would mean a lot of $ and likely no definite causes. I think he’s a little better this afternoon than this morning. I’ve prayed for his little self to get better and thanked God that he seems to be improving.

Barb Meier

Thank you for asking. Brad is resting and seems comfortable. Since he came from the shelter, I don’t know exactly how old he is. This is our third year together. I talked with my brother and he agrees there are so many tests it might take to possibly know what is wrong or not. Vomiting everything (food, water) for a couple of days surely exhausted him, so sleeping should be helpful. After I put him in a comfy place on the couch, he would sleep a while and then cried out a couple of different times, but when I came and sat with him and stroked his head and back, he settled right down and has been sleeping with steady breathing. He stopped moving his tail after he wanted cried wanting me with him. Rest and prayers for him. I will never regret being here and letting him go outside where he could do kitty business and zoom around the yard and then run up one of the big trees. He did not climb super high, but he truly loved zooming about the groomed yard and was careful not to go off our property. I watched them like my mom would keep an eye on me when I played in the yard. Mia is normal, so whatever has not affected them both.

Valerie Curren

It sounds like you are giving him the best comforting care that he might need. If, for some reason, he’s near the end of his life’s journey then you are making his (potential last) days overflow with love!

Barb Meier

Thank you, Valerie. He is still sleeping in the exact same position and looks so comfortable. His breathing is steady and calm. My brother and I have been praying for him. Sometimes the best is not struggling and just resting.

Valerie Curren

Amen. Rest & fluids to move bad stuff through the system. Bless you both!

Barb Meier

Thank you, Valerie. Bradley died yesterday. He kept trying until he couldn’t any more but at least he was comfortable at the last. Much better than tests that probably could not find what happened in time to fix it. I took him to the Troy vet hospital and they are going to have him cremated and will give me back his ashes a week from Thursday. I will scatter his ashes here, a place he loved so much. Mia is here and gave me lots of head butts this morning. She probably knows more than me. I did get more time hugging and holding Brad recently. He has always been a little jealous of Mia and she is cautious, letting him go first. That is why I thought he was being extra lovey. He is on the rainbow bridge now.

Valerie Curren

Oh Barb I’m so sorry to hear that you lost your precious little kitty. It can be so hard when a treasured pet passes. Hunter, our Maine Coon looking cat, started acting a bit like you described near the end of his life too. He was born in the wild but was an indoor cat his whole life up until the last couple of months. For some reason we had let him out in the backyard, he was pretty frail then, & he just seemed to love it. One day he never came back in. We thought he may have climbed into our overcrowded garage & just passed but we honestly don’t know. Keeping your kitty comfortable & surrounded by love surely made the end of his life nearly as blessed as the majority of his time on earth. I hope you are doing OK with this difficult loss & that your other cat is being extra loving to you now too  💔 

Barb Meier

Thank you, Valerie. We are doing okay and Mia is spending more time with me. She head butted me several times the first day Brad was gone. Brad was a busy boy and Mia is much more calm and enjoys her naps. She was one of five outdoor kitties who took naps in the forest between my neighbors and me. Mia started napping on my deck and in the end, I adopted her with her mom’s permission. She weighed 7 lbs when I got her and I always kept kibble out for them. She liked that. hehe… She weighed 12 lbs after 6 months but did not need to compete with other cats for her meals. The highway was too close so she and Brad stayed inside in Virginia. They had done very well being able to go out in my nephew’s big yard and our yard here. I do think Brad got into something.
It got worse when he licked his feet clean. I cannot be sure but know it was nothing intentional. He was a kind kitty and liked everyone. I still see him patrolling his yard and running up the big trees with such excitement. He did love his time here.

Main Coon kitties are big and wonderful. One of my cousins has ragdoll kitties and enjoys them a lot.

Valerie Curren

I’m so glad you are getting comfort from your other kitty. They can be such a joy when they snuggle & purr. God be with you in this adjustment phase. Perhaps He’ll lead another special cat to you soon 🙂

Barb Meier

Blessings to you too, Valerie. You and your family have gone through so much losing your dad and then concerns about saving your family’s cabin and also positive family connections as things are resolved. My older brother Ron was very fond of Bradley too and we had a good conversation yesterday. Ron has a beautiful big Luna kitty where he lives with his son and family. Luna recognizes Ron but is not nearly as focused on others like he is toward his person (my nephew). Bradley took to people right off and made both Ron and my landlord Kevin know they are special. Brad is a kitty who will be remembered by those he met and attended to.

Valerie Curren

So parts of Brad will live on in a number of hearts–so precious   💔  

Barb Meier

Oh yes, they will.  💕

I had an idea about that, after reading C&C the other day.

From the abuse side: have the program require an active case number to access it, and make the police chief physically sign off on the assigned case number. Make the chief accountable, and the chief won’t let anyone abuse it. That just leaves the chief to abuse it himself. Not a perfect solution, but it eliminates 99.9% of the police force from abusing it.
 
From the privacy / civilian protection side: Mark Smith, Constitutional attorney at the Four Boxes Diner youtube channel, often makes a distinction between two kinds of law, mala prohibita and mala in se.
 
………………………………..
From Brave Ai:

Mala in se: These are acts that are inherently wrong or immoral (e.g., murder, theft, rape). They involve actual harm to others and are recognized as criminal across societies regardless of specific statutes.
 
Mala prohibita: These are acts that are wrong only because they are prohibited by legislation (e.g., speeding, seat belt violations, certain licensing requirements). They lack a moral component and exist solely due to “legislative whim” or regulatory fiat.”
…………………………………

So pass laws that only allow the use of camera footage in cases of Mala en Se, that is, crimes that are inherently wrong or immoral.
 
Never allow camera footage in cases that are Mala prohibita, which are always legislative fiat to generate revenue.
 
This removes the incentive for governmental abuse (revenue generation), and preserves the valuable use of rescuing children, solving violent crime or property crime, and similar cases.
 
Again, it’s not perfect, but it’s a whole lot better than what exists today, and it addresses the endless nit-pick violations for government fee generation that Jeff mentioned.

So, just as a random programming note, I am currently extremely scrambled.

I’ve been having trouble all day with the last two posts not finishing refreshes (and not displaying some comment graphics). I figured I had used too much memory — 1200 open tabs will do that for you — so I shut down my alternate browser, Brave. This made Firefox more sprightly (though I still have the problem in the last two posts).

When I saw pgroup’s initial comment, I immediately thought to post Karn Evil 9 in response, but all my video playback is in Brave — and when I reopened it, the audio was stuck on some WNBA BS. I muted all sound and opened Karn Evil 9 in Vivaldi, which is how I put up the comment with the YouTube video.

I’ve been jukin’ and jivin’ all day. When I tried to take a shower this morning, more water was spraying above the showerhead than through it. I tried doing a quick adjust, but there was no quick fix — so I ended up borrowing the hall bathroom’s showerhead. Turns out that The Fiancee had noticed this before but hadn’t bothered to mention it to me. When I finally got to Home Depot, they had disco’d the showerhead we had been using, so I had to re-evaluate our needs and select another.

Day before yesterday, the weather report indicated that we might have light showers, so I went to roll up my car windows. They didn’t. Oddly enough, they worked prior to my mechanic working on the electrical system when the car wouldn’t start. So the car is back in the shop tonight.

I’ve been the bane of Wells Fargo Bank for awhile for an odd reason…..I had a limited number of Schwab checks. So near the end of each month, I’d show up at the branch and try to use a single check to make payments on two credit cards, the “mortgage account” (which autopays our actual mortgage and accumulates property tax and insurance payments), my checking account, and cash. Oh, and I didn’t want any of that bushwah about $400 available immediately with the rest available when it cleared, I wanted it all distributed at the same time [note: there are ways to do this].

I am happy to report that I finally got a bunch more Schwab checks. Which is a good thing, because I did not expect $400 in auto repairs, $600 in copays, $350 in car registration and smog, and a divot in my leg limiting mobility. My computer stuff has also been forcefully relocated a couple of times and I can’t find several password sheets. It has been a busy day and a busy week, but I’m starting to get things under control.

TheseTruths

That’s a lot of frustration to deal with at once! How is your leg doing?

cthulhu

There is some frustration that the length and width of the divot are somewhat stable, but the depth is notably decreasing. They keep using antibiotic goo when I visit and doing debridement — and I keep using ichthammol. I think the ichthammol is doing 90% of the heavy lifting towards healing.

About a year ago, I met a guy from Nebraska (he had the hat) who was missing a leg. He said that he had a thing that was treated into a leg amputation because he was in California — if he’d been back in Nebraska, he doubted that it would have gone so far.

As you might imagine, that’s the sort of conversation that sticks with you. He didn’t ascribe his loss to infection…..he attributed it to groupthink.

I am not knowledgeable about your condition and how such things are treated, so take this FWIW: I’ve read about sugar being used for open wound healing. (I bet you have too.)

From a search for “sugar for wound healing”:

cthulhu

I’m getting good results from icthammol. All the urgent care docs want to scrub off the top until it bleeds (debridement) — this not only scrubs off the dead skin and bacteria layer, but also the layer that is doing the healing. Ichthammol takes off the dead skin, bacteria, and crud layer.

When I was a kid and used it, it left a brown-stained spot for a few years. This is not a serious concern for me.

Valerie Curren

When my mom was a visiting nurse she changed one’s man’s moving bandage & there were maggots underneath. I believe they only eat the dead flesh though. Mom’s dad, when a young boy, was hit in the ear with a showball that ruptured his ear drum. Apparently a fly laid eggs in there at one point & the maggots ate away the dying flesh to within a half inch of his brain, iirc, & saved his life…

cthulhu

In The Old Times, people weren’t stupid — they just weren’t in the pay of Pharmaceutical companies.

cthulhu

At a certain point in my youth, I was prone to boils and carbuncles — so I was encouraged to regularly wash with “PhisoHex” soap, that contained hexachlorophene.

Then, all of a sudden, everything got switched to “PhisoDerm”. Turns out that hexachlorophene killed germs like crazy but also could induce cancer…..

If I had someone riffling through my vitals, I’d still rather he bathed in PhisoHex. He might worry about cancer dealing with it 4-6 times per day, but having sterile contact inside of me during my one surgery in years was well worth it.

A brown spot can be airbrushed out of beach modeling photos, for example, so no worries…😀

Healing is the important thing.

Valerie Curren

I think honey has been used for healing before. We just saw on an Alone episode how someone used pine sap, I think, for minor wounds. He punctured small “blisters” on the tree trunk with a shapened stick & applied the clear liquid to his skin.

Aubergine

Honey is naturally anti-bacterial and antiviral.

Valerie Curren

Thx A!

PAVACA

Agreed. Honey is a kind of mild natural antibiotic.
However, for wound care, Yours Truly thinks that medical-grade honey is the best choice, if possible.

Valerie Curren

I didn’t know there was such a thing as “medical-grade” honey

It comes from little credentialed bees and costs 5x as much.

My vet gave me a jar of Sugardine for a wound on one of my ponies.

Sugardine — A Stinky, Gooey Mess That Works When Treating Wounds

George is a farrier

…I had graduated from vet school and completed an internship at a busy equine practice before I encountered sugardine. I was riding along with George Platt in 2000 in the Eagle, Colo., area and the International Equine Veterinarian Hall Of Fame member pulled up to see a horse with a nasty infected wound on its leg. It was so swollen and painful that the horse held it miserably in the air. The smell from the fluid draining from the leg was awful.

As I watched George swiftly bandage the wound, I was surprised that he was leaving all of the stinking exudate and debris under the bandage. I didn’t recognize the sticky brown paste that he was scooping out of a Tupperware container and packing onto the wound.

I asked George why he didn’t clean the wound more thoroughly and he grinned at me.

“There’s a time and a place to get your head kicked off. And that’s not today,” he said, as the horse stood wringing his tail, the injured leg still held off the ground.

He held out the container to me. “Sugardine. It’ll clean that wound just fine. Hell, it’ll suck a cat through a keyhole!” and he took a minute to dig out from his truck a cartoon drawing of a cat being pulled backwards through a keyhole, created by a client who was apparently clearly enthralled by the image.

The following day we returned. As George pulled the bandage free, there was a thick yellow exudate coating the inside of the leg wrap.

George stuck his nose into it, inhaled deeply and announced, “That’s good.”

I didn’t see what was good about sniffing a nasty bandage and watched with horror as he swiped a finger through the yellow goo, and rubbed it between thumb and forefinger.

If he had next popped a finger into his mouth, I would have passed out. But he simply nodded to himself, satisfied. I must have made a retching sound for he turned to me innocently.

“Keeps you from biting your fingernails,” he said with glee, and tossed the slimy bandage in my direction.

I turned away, shaking my head and chucked the bandage into the trash before the ranch dog ate it. George was unwinding a long garden hose and quickly sprayed the leg clean.

I was amazed to see that the once filthy, draining wound was pink and clean, and the swelling had gone down by at least 50%. The horse was taking weight on the leg and didn’t object as George patted the leg dry with a towel and bandaged the wound again. Most importantly there was no odor…

TheseTruths

Very interesting!

Gail Combs

It certainly is and you can make the stuff with off the shelve ingredients.

Valerie Curren

What worked for Gail’s horse/pony that got the leg healed with almost no scar?

cthulhu

Likely, yes — people talk about it more for horses these days……but 50 years ago it was well-known for humans.

Valerie Curren

Hers involved aloe at least, I think…

cthulhu

The underlying story is that aloe and neosporin heal things over [sealing the bad stuff underneath], while ichthammol is a drawing salve that rises all the bad stuff to the surface and into a bandage.

Gail Combs

Correct. Aloe is used at the end of the healing process to prevent scarring. Vitamin E is also great for healing without scarring.

Gail Combs

Ichthammol Ointment is used to draw infection out of a wound or boil.

Sugardine will kill microbes because of the betadine (iodine)

Use Sugar to Treat Those Nasty Wound Injuries.”

Sugardine is simply a paste of granulated white sugar and betadine solution or scrub mixed to a toothpaste or peanut butter consistency, and it is a remarkably safe and effective wound dressing.

Aloe — we used fresh leaves — with the skin peeled off — to finish the healing and to prevent scaring.

Valerie Curren

Thanks Gail!

OK, open two terminal windows. In the first, do “ps -e | grep brave | less” — in the second, start “kill xxxx1 xxxx2 xxxx3….” using the process numbers from the other window. Make sure to get the process number of “brave-browser-s” — if you get that you only need to get about 10 more.

Brave will eventually show as dead.

When you reopen it, you will only have one active tab per window that you have to silence (perhaps by pausing playback).

1,200 tabs is nothing!

I regularly ended up with several thousand open tabs on Firefox, before I had to switch to Brave because my yahoo email stopped working in Firefox for some reason.

In Firefox, you can click the right hand arrow at the top of the screen to cycle through tabs that are off-screen to the right, but for some reason, Brave doesn’t allow that, so any tabs to the right of the screen are in the Twilight Zone.

I can do a search from the drop down menu, or I’m just stuck with the tabs I can see, no matter how many hundreds (or thousands) may be open to the right of the screen view.

Valerie Curren

Well, I also have plenty of windows open to go w/ those myriad tabs 😉 😉

One explanation of the bars that I found on a different site:

The “color bars” we see used on TVs are called SMPTE bars. These bars, which were created in 1951 and became widespread in 1978, are used to calibrate color and audio levels for taped recordings.

7/16/1999 is the date of his close friend JFK Jr reportedly plane crash

Q 1083 speaks to

The Crash

The “Start”

It ends with “As The World Turns”

Today a star from “As The World Turns” reportedly passed away.

IMO that last sentence is a stretch. PDJT’s speech was already scheduled before knowledge of that person’s passing.

EBS SCREEN COMMS #34

Here is Q34, emphasis mine:

My fellow Americans, over the course of the next

several days you will undoubtedly realize that we

are taking back our great country (the land of the

free) from the evil tyrants that wish to do us harm

and destroy the last remaining refuge of shining

light. On POTUS’ order, we have initiated certain

fail-safes that shall safeguard the public from the

primary fallout which is slated to occur 11.3 upon

the arrest announcement of Mr. Podesta

(actionable 11.4). Conrmation (to the public) of

what is occurring will then be revealed and will not

be openly accepted. Public riots are being

organized in serious numbers in an eort to

prevent the arrest and capture of more senior

public ocials. On POTUS’ order, a state of

temporary military control will be actioned and

special ops carried out. False leaks have been

made to retain several within the connes of the

United States to prevent extradition and special

operator necessity. Rest assured, the safety and

well-being of every man, woman, and child of this

country is being exhausted in full. However, the

atmosphere within the country will unfortunately

be divided as so many have fallen for the corrupt

and evil narrative that has long been broadcast. We

will be initiating the Emergency Broadcast System

(EMS) during this time in an effort to provide a

direct message (avoiding the fake news) to all

citizens. Organizations and/or people that wish to

do us harm during this time will be met with swift

fury – certain laws have been pre-lifted to provide

our great military the necessary authority to handle

and conduct these operations (at home and

abroad).

I’m not buying that the colorful screen was preparation for a future Emergency Broadcast System announcement when all h3ll breaks loose. I’m not even sure that that Q post was meant to be taken literally. It’s from November 1, 2017, in the early days, when the posts were not signed “Q”. IMO the general message of taking back the country and safeguarding the public is a thread that runs throughout Q, but I don’t think it’s all meant to be taken literally.

TheseTruths

I agree.

The demographic is responding in Aztec religious fashion, trying to find matching prophesy as totally novel events unfold. Some of it will agree, because it must, and it’s all working as planned.

Well said.

TheseTruths

They’re leaking more to force the media to cover it.

Exactly. That post is full of bombshells. Any American should be concerned about a foreign country interfering in our elections, using people’s personal information to manufacture ballots, and a coverup of all of that within our own government. The media has been complicit in the coverup, so they must be squirming.

Valerie Curren

Well, iirc, “Obama”/Soetoro made it “legal” for the media to lie/propagandize Americans in America  😡

This Gateway Pundit article says this, from CBS:

One component: Allegations that Beijing compromised U.S. voter data and evidence the CIA knew about the action and didn’t share that information with Mr. Trump during his first term.

I was concerned that “during his first term” would not cover the 2020 election (if this info is even accurate).

But the article also says this:

A White House task force will be releasing classified intelligence documents related to the 2020 election, according to a leak to MS NOW.

I still assert, forcefully, that whatever Trump reveals or contends had better not include the necessity to follow a “Q-clock,” a complex trail of millions of pages of evidence, or any sort of “eleventy-D chess.”

If it’s not obvious to a sixth grader, it will mean nothing in reality.

Gail Combs

Trump is BLUNT and to the point. Remember he dealt directly with the plumbers and brick layers and… when he was a builder. On the OT one commenter back in 2016, mentioned being at an indoor rally. After the rally she was coming out of the ladies and say POTUS talking to the janitors about how they got such a nice shine on the floor.

If that is not enough, read one of his books. As the USDA said about communicating with farmers, write at a 6th grade level.

I have ZERO fear he is not going to be his usual BLUNT self. The fact the Fake News is NOT going to carry his address is what bothers me. I hope they have their FCC licenses yanked for aiding the enemy!

Aubergine

The evidence needs to be simple enough for US to explain in a 30-second elevator speech.

Aubergine

Here’s what I want:

“Email ‘A’ from Person ‘B’ (a recognizable, connected name) states outright that China did ‘C,’ and further states that the information was to be withheld from President Trump because Person ‘B’ and his associates (also high-level and recognizable) wanted Trump to lose. And here’s a copy of the email.”

That’s what I want.

Valerie Curren

Boom!

Aubergine

It doesn’t make a bit of difference what Trump says.

It matters what the EVIDENCE is.

The evidence trail needs to be as simple as playing Chutes and Ladders, not as complicated as “eleventy-D chess.”

That’s what I’m talking about.

Aubergine

I do not and have never given a shit what the Trump-haters think.

I, however, don’t have the power to start arresting people.

The people with that power have to not give a shit. I keep waiting for that to happen. It’s been a long six years.

Aubergine

Wow. Committed treason and lost their jobs.

I am unimpressed with the level of punishment being delivered for attempting the steal the country.

It’s not enough. Until people go to jail, the leftists will continue to pretend nothing at all happened in 2020, and people like us are crazy conspiracy theorists. I keep hoping and praying for some sort of vindication and reward for all the years of hope and waiting, not to mention the loss of friends and even my own son, but it feels like it is never coming.

It played on FOX & CBS around here at least…CBS had a fairly lengthy discussion after (seriously left leaning, of course). Fox had Brett Baier provide a skeptical intro & wrap-up & implied they’d investigate Trump’s claims & report back to their viewership…

I’m buying nothing either…

From your quotes, anomalies:

Conrmation vs ConFIrmation

eort vs eFFort

ocials vs oFFIcials

connes vs connes??? after reading below quote guessed this:

connes vs conFInes

(I have no guess here so in context: “False leaks have been
made to retain several within the connes of the
United States to prevent extradition and special
operator necessity.”)

I have no idea of the significance of these Fs & Is, fwiw…

TheseTruths

I haven’t checked, but I’m pretty sure that those anomalies do not appear in the original Q post. I’ve noticed before that those things happen when copying and pasting. I didnt take the time to check the accuracy after pasting it.

In other words, they have no significance.

Valerie Curren

Interesting. It’s awfully odd that such “accidental” anomalies only involve 2 letters of the English alphabet…hmmm…in 4 random spots

Rassmusen Reports:

Tina Peters Issue Overview

Colorado election laws assume that the Federal certification of their election equipment under HAVA was and is valid. Like every other state they rely solely on this FEDERAL certification to conduct their elections electronically and lawfully.

New evidence, provided in part by Tina Peters, indicates that these certifications were invalid in 2020 and remain so today and that the systems thus certified were and are secretly remotely compromised.

County Clerk Tina Peters was duty bound to protect the 2020 election records from ANY tampering or erasure for 22 months under FEDERAL law. She did this by creating a copy before what she suspected could be an outright erasure via a 2021 Dominion software update called ‘Trusted Build.’ She was right and today her copy remains the only one of it’s kind. (see below)

NONE of this evidence about her Federal duties and actions and almost all of her defense evidence was allowed by a so-called judge at her Colorado Kangaroo Kourt “trial.”

A whistleblower from INSIDE the election theft cartel itself has testified under oath that the copy secured by Tina Peters is the only one of its kind and that Colorado election systems are fully compromised by malignant foreign actors just like him. (see below)

Colorado politicos are machine-installed partisan fools insisting on adding time to their own likely substantial Federal election fraud prison sentences by denying everything they know already and trying to kill Tina Peters using their stolen powers while they still can. Whoever convinced them to do this should join them in Federal prison.

President Trump Directs DHS Secretary Mullin to Continue ICE Deportation Traffic Stops
July 15, 2026

SD: “Yesterday DEEP STATE DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin ordered ICE agents to stop deportation apprehensions from vehicles following an ICE self-defense shooting as a vehicle was used as a weapon by an illegal alien.

Today, President Trump told his rogue DHS Secretary such an order was not approved by President Trump and ICE agents should continue all efforts to deport illegal aliens including traffic stops when needed.

comment image

[TRUTH SOCIAL] The men and women of ICE are doing a GREAT job, one that has to be done. CRIME IS WAY DOWN IN AMERICA, in many cases with numbers that haven’t been seen in decades. The Open Border Policy of Sleepy Joe Biden allowed 25,000,000 people to pour into our Country, unchecked and unvetted. Many were Criminals, and we have to get them out. In order to do this, we must be strong, tough, and smart, and we CANNOT give up one of I.C.E.’s most important and effective Crime Fighting tools, THE TRAFFIC STOP!

Once we do, we are playing right into the criminal’s hands. The Radical Left Dumocrats would like to see this done, but it won’t happen on my watch. I.C.E., be judicious, fair and smart, and go back and do your very important job. Keep those Crime Stat Records coming! Remember, you are loved and respected in America. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

~PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Secretary Markwayne Mullin is another weak link in the lawful system of removing illegal aliens. Misplaced sympathies, regardless of motivation, are against the interests of law-abiding Americans.  Deportation efforts must continue with extreme prejudice against the illegal alien population.

Weak men make for hard times!

Hours later Markwayne Mullin reversed his order.”

R-Cons have no self awareness.

R-Cons blame dumocrats, for things R-Cons could do themselves. But refuse to do so.

  • R-Cons refuse to ass SAVE America Act.
  • R-Cons refuse to kill filibuster.
  • R-Cons refuse to stop Blue Slips
  • R-Cons refuse to Pass, Ban Sanctuary States and Cities. Codify Trump Executive Orders. Ban Sharia Law.. Pass Communist Control Act

BREAKING: Thune Explains Why Senate Is Unlikely to Pass SAVE America Act

Senate Majority Leader John Thune reacts to mounting pressure to ‘nuke’ the filibuster to pass the SAVE America Act through reconciliation.

“Well, if I thought there was a path to getting a positive result or a positive outcome, I’d want to do just about anything, as I think we all would here, in favor of the SAVE America Act.

The folks that have consistently blocked it and voted against it are all the Democrats in the Senate. I think that’s unlikely to change, and it’s also very unlikely that Senate Republicans are going to vote to get rid of the legislative filibuster.

We’ve had five votes on it. We have voted on the entire SAVE America Act. We have voted on voter ID as a separate issue. We have voted on voter ID and requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote. We’ve had a vote on boys competing in girls’ sports.

We’ve now had five votes on the SAVE America Act or individual components of it, and not one of them got a single Democrat.

To me, the issue here is the Democrats, and we ought to be going after them for opposing something that’s popular across the country, not just with Republicans, but with Democrats as well.”

Enough excuses. Nuke the filibuster and secure America’s elections!

This may be one of the strongest endorsements of President @realDonaldTrump’s leadership you’ll hear from a world leader.

Former Australian Prime Minister @ScoMo30: 

“One of the criticisms made by President Trump’s hecklers, whether here in Australia or elsewhere, is that he’s so transactionally driven and that it’s all about politics.

Well, frankly, doing this in Iran was not in his political interests.

And staying there now is not in his political interests.

He has taken a big hit on this and continues to domestically and politically.

You would only do that if it is something you know is deeply important to the national interest.

I admire this. He has been prepared to take the heat.

I’m sure there have been many advising him to do something very different from a political point of view, and I’m sure they have his best interests from that perspective at heart.

But I think it disproves this idea that he is some political automaton, transactionally motivated by self-interest.

What he has done here—and how he has supported Israel at this moment—is quite extraordinary.

And I think, of the many things that will be remembered about Donald Trump—and there will be a lot—

His strength on the question of Iran has been quite extraordinary and very commendable.”

“Big Mike is Angry,” period. I have always thought she was a very angry person, and she said a lot of things to confirm that. Since leaving the WH, she has said a lot more.

I think they did treat her as a fashion icon, but that they manufactured it.

First Ladies are not known for their oratory, even if they are good speakers. They are most often in the background.

I don’t know what accomplishments she had. I suspect that, not finding many, or any, and since she was so obviously a large-framed woman* who was not naturally attractive and was lacking in grace, the media “helped” her along by focusing on her fashion, which was, and continues to be, atrocious.

*No need to pile on with “That’s a man, baby.” 😅

Buckle up, patriots… IT’S FINALLY HAPPENING. Nancy Pelosi is going to prison.

Side-eye on this one. That looks like Watters from several years ago. I see no reason for the video to look “fuzzy” except to cover things up. If it was taken off of a TV, the sound would also be “fuzzy,” but it is clear as a bell.

I haven’t researched it, but I don’t see this news anywhere else. And I seem to remember this happening before, where she was served a subpoena and someone else announced in on the House floor. Of course, if that had happened, it would have been for something much less major than the laundry list of things presented in that post.

It’s all too much. “Nancy Pelosi is going to prison,” riiiiiight.

“No official word on charges yet…” because, I suspect, it’s either a fake or an old story.

Wow, I had no idea that Denmark did all this! We should emulate them!

“Hollywood used a misquote from an aborted 1975 moon landing—“Houston, we have a problem”—to make the movie “Apollo 13,” and in doing so, it became memorialized; the movie demonstrated NASA’s success in using teamwork to solve an issue that could have devastated the mission. It is an approach Denmark’s politicians adopted to tackle their own problem.

In 2018, Danish leaders had an “aha” moment, recognizing a major issue. In Apollo 13, the astronauts and NASA operated as a team from the outset; however, it would take a few years for the Danes to be able to mirror that dynamic on a political level to solve the issue about to devastate their own mission.
The problem Denmark faced was only recognized after its leaders analyzed what immigration data were telling them. A podcast by Dr. Steve Turley does an outstanding job of highlighting both Denmark’s problem and its solution.

Denmark opened its borders only to later discover that Muslim immigrants were taking advantage of that open door. By 2018, data revealed Muslims making up 14% of the country’s population accounted for over 30% of its violent crimes. Of interest too was that the conviction rate for Danish citizens was only twelve out of every one thousand while the conviction rate for Somalis alone was 114 per 1,000.”

data can be presented numerous times, but those in congress refuse to read it.

I’ve told this before, but my grandfather came to ellis island as a child and studied English and couldn’t wait to take his citizenship pledge. He wanted to be and was proud to be an AMERICAN.

Three out of four of my grandparents came via Ellis Island. ALL learned English and ALL found jobs and worked. Even though my Grandma came here at 16 and lost her husband, another immigrant, to the Spanish Flu, she put all five of her children thru college without a SINGLE DIME OF HELP! My other grandfather died at 52. Again ALL of the children were put thru college.

Do I consider myself very lucky in my grandparents and parents? YES, but that does not mean I will give a pass to the ILLEGAL GRIFTERS who actually hate our country and are only here to steal our wealth and our land and our country.

PAVACA

Yours Truly believes that The Focal Points (Dr. Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH) is, like The Burning Platform site, starting to move to “the dark side.” This is highly unfortunate, as Dr. McCullough risked his medical career (and his License to Practice Medicine) to stand up to the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” pushing by the government, Big Pharma, the AMA, etc.

Case in point: this article, with an embedded interview with Dr. McCullough;

https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/the-great-incoulation-how-mrna-vaccines
“The Great Inoculation: How mRNA Vaccines Guarantee Longevity Will Decline”
16 July 2026
Yours Truly: the interview and the text summary of how the modRNA COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines” have decreased the lifespan of the “vaccinated” is well done.
BUT — here’s the last sentence of the text summary:
“McCullough closes by contrasting Trump’s Politburo-style cabinet conformity with Lincoln’s “team of rivals” approach to leadership.”

PAVACA

Thank you. Agreed that Dr. McCullough is correct on biomedical issues.
What Yours Truly thinks is going on somewhere in the background is ** someone ** may be trying to persuade Dr. McCullough to join the “Why doesn’t Trump admit he was wrong about the COVID-19 vaccines and that Operation Warp Speed was ultimately a mistake?” thing.

kalbokalbs

Medical “Experts” were AND remain the problem with Covidiot AND Jabs.

PAVACA

if one is referring to the AMA as an example of the “Medical ‘Experts'” being the problem with the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines”, correct.
However, Dr. McCullough and his team have done some terrific and seminal work in exposing the dangers and deadliness of the COVID-19 bioweapon “vaccines.” When Yours Truly mentioned his “stand up to” these “vaccines”, this was NOT meant to say that he endorsed them.

Gail Combs

I think the clot shots remain a very nasty political live wire. Those who have taken the shots or worse seen to it that their kids have taken them, DO NOT WANT TO KNOW it is a poison and will resist knowing.

I think this is why Robert Jr and POTUS have backed off the subject. I am hoping that after the big ELECTION FRAUD reveal and the midterms, thing will change.

Just after the election — the lame duck session– is the safest time politically.

in a muslim sponsored forum, 3 dem candidates for governor of Wisconsin vowed to veto any legislation curbing the influence of sharia law.
FTA
In a revealing moment at a forum hosted by Wisconsin Muslim civic organizations, three leading Democrat candidates for governor—Francesca Hong, Mandela Barnes, and Kelda Roys—made clear where their priorities lie. Each signaled they would veto any legislation aimed at curbing the influence of Sharia law in the state. This stance exposes a profound misalignment with the constitutional order and the Judeo-Christian foundations that built Wisconsin and the nation.

Sharia, often presented innocuously as personal guidance for diet, prayer, and marriage, carries far heavier implications in practice. It functions as a comprehensive legal and political system in many Islamic societies, one that subordinates individual rights, enforces strict hierarchies, and conflicts directly with American principles of equality under the law.

Candidates who would block efforts to affirm the supremacy of the Constitution over foreign legal codes are not defending religious liberty—they are opening doors to parallel systems that erode it.

At the event co-hosted by the Wisconsin Muslim Civic Alliance and Wisconsin Muslim Civic Foundation, organizers framed anti-Sharia measures as unconstitutional attacks on faith, likening Sharia to Catholic canon law or Jewish halakha.

Yet this equivalence ignores fundamental differences. Unlike those traditions, Sharia has inspired governance models marked by apostasy penalties, unequal treatment of women and non-Muslims, and resistance to secular authority—realities documented across nations where it holds sway.

The candidates’ affirmative responses to veto such legislation were not offhand remarks. They came amid a broader pattern. Hong, a democratic socialist state representative, has built a record championing policies that challenge traditional norms on family, gender, and law enforcement.

Barnes, former lieutenant governor, carries a history of radical rhetoric on America’s founding and policing. Roys, a state senator, has pushed gun control measures in the wake of tragedies. Their willingness to elevate Sharia concerns above constitutional vigilance fits a consistent ideological thread: skepticism toward America’s exceptional inheritance.

Critics of anti-Sharia legislation often invoke the First Amendment, yet this misses the point. America already protects personal religious practice. The concern lies in Sharia’s political dimensions—tribunals, family law overrides, or cultural pressures that undermine equal protection. Multiple states have passed measures to reinforce that no foreign law supersedes the Constitution, precisely to safeguard against such encroachments.

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 16, 2026

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:”

James 1:19 (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR JAMES 1:19

This epistle of James is one of the most instructive writings in the New Testament. Being chiefly directed against particular errors at that time brought in among the Jewish Christians, it does not contain the same full doctrinal statements as the other epistles, but it presents an admirable summary of the practical duties of all believers. The leading truths of Christianity are set forth throughout; and on attentive consideration, it will be found entirely to agree with St. Paul’s statements concerning grace and justification, while it abounds with earnest exhortations to the patience of hope and obedience of faith and love, interspersed with warnings, reproofs, and encouragements, according to the characters addressed. The truths laid down are very serious, and necessary to be maintained; and the rules for practice ought to be observed in all times. In Christ there are no dead and sapless branches, faith is not an idle grace; wherever it is, it brings forth fruit in works.How to apply to God under troubles, and how to behave in prosperous and in adverse circumstances. (1-11) To look upon all evil as proceeding from ourselves, and all good from God. (12-18) The duty of watching against a rash temper, and of receiving the word of God with meekness. (19-21) And of living according thereto. (22-25) The difference between vain pretences and real religion. (26,27)

19-21 Instead of blaming God under our trials, let us open our ears and hearts to learn what he teaches by them. And if men would govern their tongues, they must govern their passions. The worst thing we can bring to any dispute, is anger. Here is an exhortation to lay apart, and to cast off as a filthy garment, all sinful practices. This must reach to sins of thought and affection, as well as of speech and practice; to every thing corrupt and sinful. We must yield ourselves to the word of God, with humble and teachable minds. Being willing to hear of our faults, taking it not only patiently, but thankfully. It is the design of the word of God to make us wise to salvation; and those who propose any mean or low ends in attending upon it, dishonour the gospel, and disappoint their own souls.

Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.

I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.

Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.

With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.

Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me. 

Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.

When I was a kid in up-state NY we rated how cold the night would be by whether it was a one cat, two cat or three cat night as the barn cats gathered on an old horse’s blanketed back.

HILARIOUS: President Trump: “You know who else didn’t help us? South Korea didn’t help us. We have 45K soldiers in South Korea to protect [them] from Kim Jong Un, who I get along with very well. He said very nice things about me. He used to call Joe Biden a ‘mentally retarded person.’”

“Joe Biden, he said he’s a mentally retarded person. He was so nasty to Joe Biden. It was terrible.”

patfrederick

so the law clearly states children of foreign diplomats do not get birthright citizenship, but they got it anyway???
artcle

Republican Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt urged the executive branch to investigate illegal grants of citizenship to foreign diplomats’ children on Thursday, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

In a letter addressed to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin, Schmitt detailed that foreign diplomats are having children during their missions and then claiming birthright citizenship for their children.

“Neither the Constitution nor federal statutory law grants foreign diplomats’ children birthright citizenship. Yet public reporting indicates that potentially thousands of foreign diplomats’ children have been given citizenship documentation,” Schmitt wrote in the letter that was first obtained by the DCNF. “Foreign diplomats’ children illegally procuring citizenship degrades the meaning of American citizenship, undermines our sovereignty, and threatens our national security.”

“I therefore urge both of your agencies to take immediate action to investigate the extent of illegal grants of citizenship documentation to foreign diplomats’ children, implement policies and procedures to prevent it from occurring in the future, identify the individuals who have illegally procured citizenship documentation in this manner, and revoke those individuals’ illegally procured citizenship documentation,” he added.

A 2017 report by the Korea Times found that more than 100 children of diplomats from the Republic of Korea have acquired birthright citizenship, Schmitt cited in his letter.

Under the Biden administration a publicly-issued updated blue list or white list is not available. A blue list is a list of diplomatic staff and their spouses and a white list contains the names of diplomatic mission employees, according to the U.S. Department of State website.

On June 30, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Trump v. Barbara that the president’s executive order seeking to deny birthright citizenship of children born in the U.S. to foreign nationals was unconstitutional. (RELATED: Rep. Mike Kennedy Has A Plan To Bypass Obama Judge’s Ruling And Protect American Workers)

However, Schmitt wrote in his letter that even though the Court’s majority in the case “wrongfully expanded birthright citizenship to cover the children of illegal aliens and temporarily present aliens, it too recognized that the children of diplomats do not acquire birthright citizenship.”

“Allowing diplomats’ children to claim birthright citizenship violates the Constitution, statutory law, decades of judicial and administrative practice, degrades the value and integrity of American citizenship, presents serious national security risks, and undermines our nation’s sovereignty,” the letter added. “American citizenship is the sacred bond between the sovereign ‘We the People’ and our government. We cannot allow it to be cheapened into a mere bureaucratic status to be usurped by diplomats and foreign functionaries who owe their allegiance to other countries.”

The Social Security Administration, health agencies, and people administering birth certificates do not ask about parents’ potential diplomat status when issuing them government documents, the Center for Immigration Studies found in 2011, Schmitt’s letter cited. Since the Biden administration did not release an updated blue or white list, it makes it harder for state or federal agencies to inquire into whether a child was born to diplomat parents.

“I respectfully request that the Department of State and the Department of Homeland Security to take immediate action to investigate the extent of these illegal grants of citizenship documentation, implement policies and procedures to prevent it from occurring in the future, identify the individuals who have illegally procured citizenship documentation in this manner, and revoke those individuals’ illegally procured citizenship documentation,” Schmitt’s letter concluded.

Well, Yours Truly just made an interesting discovery.
While searching for an earlier Health Friday post, I input the “The Q Tree author” URL using my former screen moniker (PAVACA.) Got back an error message, “Oops, nothing found”-type. Then I input the same “The Q Tree author” URL using my new screen moniker (PAVACA1.) Sure enough, all the Health Friday posts popped up.

So, one surmises that, if an author changes their screen moniker, (example: “Munchkin” to “Munchkin1223”), searches on the “author” URL would have to be performed using only the new screen moniker.

“Democrats have chosen not to engage on these important issues. Ultimately, they’ll have to answer to the American people.”

The Senate Parliamentarian is officially there to advise the presiding officer. By tradition, the presiding officer (whether that’s the Vice President of the U.S. as President of the Senate, the Senate President pro Tempore, or a Senator who has been appointed by the President pro Tem to preside) follows the advice of the Parliamentarian. If the presiding officer decides to defy tradition and rule contrary to the Parliamentarian’s advice, it’s not “overruling” the Parliamentarian, it’s simply not following the Parliamentarian’s advice.

The full Senate, however, can overrule their presiding officer, whoever that might be. And in the case of the Parliamentarian’s advice regarding what provisions qualify for inclusion in a budget reconciliation bill under the “Byrd rule,” there is no doubt the full Senate would overrule their presiding officer if they ruled contrary to the Parliamentarian’s advice.

 👉 To do otherwise would be a back door way of abolishing the Senate filibuster, something a majority of the Senate opposes. 👈

Senate Parliamentarian – Ballotpedia

The Senate parliamentarian is a nonpartisan advisor to the chamber on procedural issues, interpretation of Senate rules, and legislative activity. During a Senate meeting, the Senate parliamentarian—or a staff member from her office—sits on the Senate dais and advises the presiding officer.[1] Senate parliamentarians are hired by the secretary of the Senate.[2]

The office was created in 1935. Charles Watkins, who had served as an unofficial advisor on floor procedure since 1923, was the first parliamentarian.[3]….

The Byrd rule is a section of federal law that requires that the content of budget reconciliation bills not include extraneous provisions.[7] In other words, it requires that budget reconciliation bills include only provisions related to the budget and only provisions that accomplish the goals of the budget resolution. If a Senator finds the content of a reconciliation bill or an amendment of a reconciliation bill to contain extraneous material, they can raise a point of order under the Byrd rule, which if sustained would cause the extraneous material to be removed from the bill. The presiding officer of the Senate (the vice president) then has the option to waive or sustain the motion. In this matter, the presiding officer is advised by the Senate Parliamentarian.[5]

The Senate Parliamentarian’s role is advisory in nature and her decisions are not technically binding in that they can be overturned by the Senate or the presiding officer.[5]

When has the Vice President ruled contrary to the Parliamentarian’s advice?

Vice President Nelson Rockefeller overruled the Parliamentarian in 1975 regarding procedures for voting to change the Senate’s filibuster rules. Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey ruled contrary to the Parliamentarian’s determination regarding the filibuster threshold in 1967 and 1969.[8][9]

In March 2021, 24 Democratic members of Congress wrote a letter to President Joe Biden (D) and Vice President Kamala Harris (D) requesting that Harris overrule the Senate Parliamentarian’s determination that a provision raising the national minimum wage to $15 per hour proposed for the 2021 reconciliation bill was extraneous and had to be removed according to the Byrd Rule. Ultimately, Harris ruled in accordance with the Parliamentarian and removed the provision.[8]

If the save America part INCLUDES moneys appropriated to implement the rule, then the Parliamentarian can go pound sand. Yeah, it is really that simple!

https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/svg/1f6a8.svg BREAKING: Virginia State Senator Saddam Azlan Salim (D-Fairfax) has introduced Senate Bill 624, legislation that would define “Islamophobia” within Virginia’s assault and battery laws while requiring law enforcement to track crimes allegedly motivated by anti-Islam bias.

For years, we’ve warned that this is one path by which Islam gains political influence in the West. In my view, measures like this move society closer to treating criticism of Islam as something deserving of special legal protection. I believe that raises serious concerns about free speech and religious liberty.
I also believe we’re seeing a similar pattern elsewhere. In Tampa, Florida, State Attorney Suzy Lopez, a @GovRonDeSantis appointee, is prosecuting Christians for preaching to Muslims on public property in a case involving alleged disruption of a religious assembly. That prosecution benefits CAIR’s agenda and sends a chilling message to Christians who engage in public evangelism.

Christians need to pay attention to what’s happening around them. If criticism of one religion receives increasing legal protection while biblical preaching faces criminal prosecution, we should be asking hard questions about the future of free speech and religious liberty in America.
How much more needs to happen before Christians wake up?

AI remake of a childhood cheese-fest classic?

scott467

Yes, that’s supposed to be Burgermeister Meisterburger, from the 1970 Rankin/Bass stop-motion special Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town. [not a cheese-fest, an American classic!]

I would normally post a link to the movie scene, but it is always being taken down by the rights holder, and at the moment, I couldn’t find the clip from the “I hate toys!” scene.

The best I could find was this re-enactment. It’s using the correct monologue and the correct recorded voice of Burgermeister Meisterburger, and it looks enough like him to know that’s who it’s supposed to be.

Best I could do, hopefully next time I need the real clip from the movie, someone has posted it again and it’s still on yootoob! 😁

Pentagon reinstates suspended Apache pilots following July 4 flyover By JENNIFER H. SVAN STARS AND STRIPES • July 10, 2026

Eight South Carolina National Guard AH-64 Apache helicopter pilots under a safety investigation for a low beach flyover on the 250th anniversary of American independence are no longer grounded after the Pentagon reversed their flight suspension. “Carry on Patriots,” the Pentagon’s chief spokesman, Sean Parnell, wrote Friday on X. Their suspension was over effective immediately, he added.

@BillMelugin_
NEW: DHS and DOT have announced they’ve identified 75 entry level truck driver CDL schools across the US that are suspected of fraudulently helping non-citizen drivers qualify for CDLs, and the agencies are partnering to investigate them, with HSI and DOT already visiting some of the schools to probe them. Some of the schools are suspected of falsifying training records, providing improper certifications, and failing to properly train the drivers. 

Statements via DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin & DOT Secretary Sean Duffy:

“Too many American lives have been lost in completely avoidable accidents because illegal aliens have been granted commercial driver’s licenses to drive trucks and 18-wheelers on America’s roadways,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “DHS law enforcement is partnering with the Department of Transportation to eliminate CDL fraud, strengthen the integrity of the CDL system, and investigate commercial driver’s license schools throughout the country. This is a whole of government approach, to keep America’s roads safe.”

“USDOT has spent the last year rooting out bad actors from our trucking industry,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. “We’ve knocked over 24,000 drivers off our roads for failing to speak English, forced states to cancel over 28,000 licenses illegally issued to foreign drivers, and purged over 9,500 unqualified training schools from our FMCSA registry. DHS will be a force multiplier of our efforts to clean up America’s roads. President Trump is using every lever at his disposal to ensure the safety of American families.”

“So, on Jack Smith, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley… unearthed clear evidence that Jack Smith testified to Congress that he did not look at the substance of these phone calls or text messages.

He said he just got the toll records for members of Congress, which he didn’t notify them about, which is a violation of the law. But he got their toll records, which show when they made the calls and the duration of the calls.

But apparently, they said they didn’t listen to the calls or read the text messages.

We just found out from Chairman Chuck Grassley, working with Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel, that yes, in fact, Jack Smith did read the substance of the communications, the text messages, of members of Congress, 44 of them, including 20 U.S. senators and 24 members of the House, including the House leadership, like the House Speaker and the House Majority Leader.

This has to be prosecuted. This is a pretty clear case of providing false statements to Congress under USC Section 1001 at a minimum. More likely, it’s perjury because he was under oath.”

Mike Davis of the Article 3 project hammered former Special Counsel Jack Smith over evidence he committed perjury before Congress.

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan revealed on “Hannity” that Jack Smith could face a congressional referral, arguing new evidence raises serious questions about whether he lied under oath and abused his investigative powers.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio Delivers Remarkable Speech on Resurgence of Political Terrorism
July 16, 2026

SD: “Today, Secretary of State Marco Rubio is hosting an event with various governments for a Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism. The event focuses on the reemergence of this threat to society and encourages stronger joint action to reinforce frontline defenses and close the gaps the terrorist actors continue to exploit.

As part of the State Department effort, Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a remarkable speech to the audience. Within his remarks Rubio outlines the history of left-wing violence and lists current examples of how dangerous this has become. In many ways this is the anti-Obama speech that has long been needed.

This is a moment that can reset how we view terrorism in the 21st century, shifting from a terror-threat focus from Islamic extremism to the more pervasive threat from left-wing political violence.” WATCH:
.

.

STATE DEPT – […] Far-left political terrorism is resurgent, manifesting in violent terrorist acts across the Western Hemisphere, Europe, Asia and beyond. These are not isolated incidents. They reflect a deliberate, ideologically motivated strategy to destabilize free societies by violently targeting our political and economic systems, including attacks against private citizens, government officials, police and law enforcement, businesses, and critical infrastructure around the globe. For too long, however, this threat has remained a blind spot in the international community’s counterterrorism focus, underestimated and under-resourced, despite the danger it poses.

The United States is taking a leading role in countering far-left terrorism. Since November 2025, the United States has designated four violent far-left groups — Antifa Ost, the Informal Anarchist Federation/International Revolutionary Front (FAI/FRI), Armed Proletarian Justice, and Revolutionary Class Self-Defense — as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists, as well as offered a reward of up to $10 million for information leading to the disruption of the financial mechanisms of these same four organizations. 

In recent months, the United States engaged also law enforcement, counterterrorism professionals, and prosecutors around the globe through direct engagements, as well as the inaugural Counterterrorism Law Enforcement Workshop (CTLEW) in May 2026, which convened 14 countries for a two-day, practitioner-focused workshop to exchange best practices for countering the threat of transnational far-left terrorism.

This Ministerial builds on that foundation, bringing together partners from across the Western Hemisphere, Europe, and Asia to expand coordination, enhance information sharing, and strengthen international law enforcement mechanisms to counter the threat. Secretary Rubio will highlight the importance of deepening cooperation with international partners to better map violent activity, disrupt terrorist financing, protect critical infrastructure, and promote collective action against a threat that respects no borders. {SOURCE}

There is a diner in the Tennessee mountains where a little girl showed me a book.

She could not have been six. She held it the way grown men hold the deed to a house.

A thin paperback. The cover soft and bent from love. A cartoon bear.

I asked her, to be kind, if it was a good book.

She said, “The Book Lady sent it. She sends me one every month. She knows my name.”

Then she went back to her pancakes, as if she had not just described something impossible.

I could not let it go.

All through breakfast I turned it over. A woman who knows the names of small children, sends them books, and asks for nothing. In my country she would have a shrine. Incense. One clean day a year when the town remembers her.

I decided the Book Lady must be a gentle fiction. A story mothers invent, the way we tell children the old mountain is watching, so they behave.

I was wrong.

The Book Lady is real. She is the most famous woman in the state. Her name is Dolly.

I made errors. In a hardware store I called her “your empress.” The man thought about it honestly and said, “Close enough.”

I asked a waitress if Dolly was still living. She set down the coffee pot with great care. “Honey, Dolly will outlive us all, and then she will send flowers to the funerals.”

Then they told me the thing, all of them, in the flat voice this country keeps for facts too large to raise the voice for.

Dolly grew up one of twelve children, in a one-room cabin, in these same mountains. Her father could not read a word his whole life.

So she built the thing that sends the books. Not the clever children. Not the deserving ones. Every child who signs up, from birth until they start school, free, their own name on the cover, whether the family has money or nothing at all.

The children do not know she is famous. They know only the Book Lady. Some will grow old and never learn it was her.

Two hundred million books, a man told me at a gas pump. Then, seeing the number had defeated me, he made it smaller and heavier at once.

“She did it for her daddy,” he said. “He never got to read. So she made sure every child after him would.”

I would like to tell you what happened in my chest when he said that. I do not have the words, and I distrust any man who claims he does.

I come from eight hundred years of men who wrote everything down. We cut our names into stone so the centuries could not misplace us.

My father was the last of that line before me. A silent man. For forty years I believed his silence was the only thing he ever gave me.

In that diner, I remembered something I had put away as nothing.

When I was a boy, my father worked among machines loud enough to take a man’s hearing, and in time they took most of his. He came home each night with nothing left to say. But there was one year, when I was learning to read and ashamed of how badly it went, that every night, however late he came in, he sat beside me while I read one page aloud.

He never said a word. I thought he was only checking that I had done the work.

It took me forty years and a stranger’s diner to understand.

He could not hear me. By then he could barely hear anything. He was not listening to the words. He could not have caught one of them.

He was only sitting where a small boy could look up and see that his father had stayed.

I carried that year my whole life as proof my father was cold.

It was the warmest thing anyone has ever done for me. I just never had the book to prove it, so I let myself forget.

There is a bookshop two doors from that diner. I have just bought a thin paperback with a soft-looking bear on the cover. I am mailing it tonight to my father in Japan. He is eighty-one. He still cannot hear.

He will not need to.

Inside the cover I wrote one line, large enough that he can read it without his glasses:

“I finished the page. I always finished the page. Thank you for staying.”

The Book Lady learned it from her father, who could not read.

I learned it from mine, who could not hear.

And somewhere in the mountains between us, those two old men would have understood each other completely, and said nothing at all, which is the loudest thing men like them have ever known how to say.

Press Sec. Karoline Leavitt Claps Back at Reporter for Denying The Existence of Election Fraud, Says Trump’s Speech Will SHOCK You:

“Garrett, I think part of the problem is that the media has refused to acknowledge that tens of millions of Americans across the country share the concerns of this President about the sanctity of our elections.”

“You should report on the President’s speech and the findings that he is going to reveal in this speech with a little bit of honesty and a little bit of integrity. Because it does — It will shock you”

TheseTruths

I heard a smidgen of some radio host who said PDJT should have dropped this long ago and that 2020 was not stolen. He brought up all the investigations and lawsuits and mentioned Bill Barr and Mike Pence. I don’t think people like that will be convinced, no matter what evidence is presented, and I predict that the media will do nothing but scoff.

But those people don’t have to be convinced. Those who can do something about it, and those who know something is wrong with our elections but have had no solid proof, are the ones that can move election integrity forward. I do hope that some reasonable-minded people who haven’t been paying a lot of attention will start to see the light.

Three things would concern me greatly if I weren’t already convinced: the idea that China or any foreign nation accessed our databases, the idea that my vote might have been cancelled out by someone committing fraud, and a foreign nation’s steering our election process.

Regarding that last one, any POTUS *cough* who failed to uphold our laws and sovereignty and even facilitated the invasion is guilty of treason, IMO.

I no longer care what the ignorant and naysayers think. Their thoughts are not relevant to me. Justice being administered tells the true story. It’s time to move beyond the talk stage.

But it takes a special kind of fool to refuse to believe that nothing happened when the POTUS goes on national TV in prime time to tell the ENTIRE WORLD that something major happened to our election system criminally and through foreign intervention.

It would be criminal as well as open and shut civil cases to make unfounded accusations that could not be proven.

Prayer Of Reflection On The Past Day

Loving Lord, as the day is coming to an end, I want to thank You for being with me in all that has taken place today. I also want to lay the whole day before You, asking that you would show me if there is anything that I have done to hurt or harm another person unknowingly, or if I have done anything that is displeasing in Your sight, or quenched the work of the Spirit in me, so that I may turn away from such things in the days that lie ahead.

Lord, I desire to do Your will in all things. I pray that You would cleanse me of any wrong thoughts or attitudes that may have surfaced in my heart today. Wash me in Your cleansing flood, I pray. 

Thank You, that You are a God who forgives our transgressions when we are willing to confess them to You, knowing that such cleansing before You immediately draws us back into sweet fellowship with Yourself. 

Give me a good night’s rest I pray, and may I rest quietly in Your loving arms in the knowledge that in Christ, I am eternally secure, due to Your amazing grace, for which I praise You. In Jesus’ name,

Evening Prayer For Forgiveness

Heavenly Father, thank You for bringing me through this day and Lord, forgive me for the times when I have wandered outside Your best will for me, instead of trusting You implicitly.
 
Thank You, that You are such a gracious Shepherd to me and that You come and rescue me even when I lose my way and stray from the path that You have laid out for me.
 
As I look back over today, I know Lord that there were things that I should have said and done differently, and times when I reacted in a manner that was not honouring Your holy name. Forgive me I pray, but thank You, Father, that You always faithfully prepared to gently bring me back to Yourself.
 
Give me a good night’s sleep I pray, knowing that there is no condemnation because I am in Christ, and may I wake up in the morning refreshed and ready to do Your will. In Jesus’ name I pray,
 
Amen.

BREAKING: House Budget Committee ADVANCES the SAVE America Act in Reconciliation Which Needs Just 50 Votes + JD Vance in Senate

House Republicans scored another major victory Thursday after the House Budget Committee advanced the SAVE and Protect America Act through the budget reconciliation process.

The House Budget Committee advanced a framework for a third reconciliation bill.

Speaker Mike Johnson announced the committee’s approval, calling it a critical milestone in the Republican effort to enact the SAVE America Act despite months of Democrat obstruction and Senate procedural roadblocks.

The reconciliation strategy is designed to allow the measure to pass the Senate with a simple majority rather than the traditional 60 votes required to overcome a filibuster, although Senate rules will ultimately determine which provisions qualify.

He also blasted Democrats for refusing to participate in the effort.

The next step after the House Budget Committee advances a budget resolution containing reconciliation instructions is for the full House of Representatives to debate and vote on the resolution, which is expected to occur as early as the week of July 20, 2026.

I was afraid this was the case. 🙄 Extended bloviating that changes no one’s mind. I think these extended time periods allow more chances for bribes, intimidation, and blackmail.

The House has already passed versions of this bill multiple times. Each time, Senate Democrats and a handful of RINOs have blocked it, hiding behind the filibuster while refusing to explain to voters why they oppose basic safeguards against non-citizen voting.

It can be recalled that on Wednesday, the House Republicans delivered a major victory for election integrity after passing the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) with the SAVE America Act language included, sending the combined legislation to the Senate in a 217-209 vote.

Now the path is clearer. Because this is moving through reconciliation, it only needs a simple majority in the Senate, 50 votes plus Vice President JD Vance to break any ties.

Vance blasted Senate Republicans over what he called “procedural bullsh*t,” arguing there is no constitutional requirement for the Senate’s 60-vote legislative threshold and insisting Republicans should use the reconciliation process to enact election integrity reforms.

Speaking alongside Vice President Vance on Wednesday, Johnson called the reconciliation package “our best shot” at passing the legislation.

President Trump Lays Bare Massive GBI Strategies Fake Voter Registration Scam The Gateway Pundit Broke in August 2023

Tonight, in his address to the nation, President Trump presented and “fully confirmed” the “authenticity” of documents that have been declassified. One of the five areas of major concern he covered was a massive voter registration scheme by GBI Strategies, a story I broke in August 2023.

The Gateway Pundit broke this story in August 2023!!!

How It Began

In June 2023, a conservative activist told me he was in possession of Michigan State Police and Muskegon Police reports that would expose the shocking operations of a statewide fake-registration ring that was discovered in Muskegon, Michigan, only one month before the November 2020 election.

On October 8, 2020, Muskegon, MI City Clerk Ann Meisch noticed a black female (whose name was redacted from the police report, although later in the report her name, Brianna Hawkins, was unredacted) dropping off between 8,000 and 10,000 completed voter registration applications at the city clerk’s office.

The Muskegon Police Department was contacted by Meisch and asked to investigate. According to the MI State Police report, on October 21, 2020, First Lieutenant Mike Anderson was contacted by Tom Fabus, Chief of Investigations for Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s Office. Mr. Fabus requested Michigan State Police assistance with a joint investigation into alleged voter fraud being conducted by the Muskegon Police Department and the AG.

An investigative task force was formed, and an investigation was initiated.

The following is an excerpt from the MI State Police report…

More at the link. This has flown under the radar. So have a lot of other cases. I hope it will all come to light now.

Valerie Curren

No doubt!

Valerie Curren

Figures. Those people are sick, twisted, & evil…

Gail Combs

Somewhere on this thread I posted the screenshots that were in a tweet by Rasmussen.

LINK to that comment. It has the info direct from the sheriff.

scott467

Looks like this is the link, I couldn’t find it at whitehouse.gov and had to ask Brave three times to find it:

https://www.whitehouse.gov/election-integrity/

I asked Grok for a summary and opinion:

………………………
Yes, the page is now live. It serves as a dedicated hub for the Trump administration’s election integrity releases tied to the address, with summaries and downloadable ZIP archives for four main categories.

Quick Summary of the Released Materials
The site frames these as previously classified or suppressed intelligence, FBI files, and DHS reviews highlighting systemic vulnerabilities and irregularities, primarily around 2020. Key sections:

Vulnerabilities in Electronic Voting & Ballot-Counting Systems
Releases U.S. Intelligence Community Assessments (2020 – 2026) on risks from adversaries (Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, non-state actors).

Key quotes: adversaries have capability to compromise election infrastructure; centralized databases (voter rolls, pollbooks, websites) are most vulnerable. Also includes CIA reporting on a Venezuelan (Maduro regime) plot to digitally alter vote totals in undetectable ways during their 2020 elections — presented as a warning for U.S. systems.

China’s Acquisition and Exploitation of American Voter Data
Claims the largest known compromise: China acquired ~220 million U.S. voter files (names, addresses, phones, party prefs, etc.) starting in the 2020 cycle. Intelligence allegedly shows a dedicated Chinese exploitation unit. Accuses “Deep State” elements in IC of suppressing/delaying warnings.

Michigan Voter-Registration Investigation
FBI files on a 2020 raid of a Democrat GOTV group in Muskegon. Allegations include canvassers admitting to fake registrations (signing in others’ names, nonexistent people), gift card incentives. Claims FBI saw crimes but Biden DOJ slow-walked it. Directs further investigation/prosecutions.

Noncitizens on State Voter Rolls
DHS review identified ~278,000 non-citizens registered for federal elections (likely higher due to non-cooperating states). Ties into broader calls for proof of citizenship and voter ID.

The overarching narrative: The system is “broken and vulnerable” due to foreign data theft, hackable machines, buried fraud evidence, noncitizen registrations, etc. — justifying urgent reforms like voter ID, citizenship proof, and hardened systems.

My Assessment of Severity and Implications

Strengths/Evidence Quality:

Vulnerabilities are real and longstanding — Election infrastructure has known weaknesses (outdated systems, connectivity risks, supply-chain issues). Foreign data exfiltration (especially by China) and influence ops are documented threats across IC reports for years. Highlighting these transparently is useful.

Specific claims (e.g., Michigan case, noncitizen numbers, Venezuelan methods) merit scrutiny and follow-up if the raw files hold up.

Limitations/Caveats:

• These are summaries and selective releases framed to support a strong narrative of widespread compromise and cover-up. Full context, chain-of-custody, dissenting analyses, and scale (e.g., did data theft lead to actual vote changes? Did Venezuelan techniques get deployed here?) aren’t fully detailed on the page.

• Prior comprehensive IC/DHS assessments (pre- and post-2020) consistently found no evidence that foreign actors changed vote tallies or outcomes, despite capabilities and attempts at influence. Capabilities ≠ successful manipulation at scale. The “undetectable” Venezuelan example is illustrative but not direct U.S. proof.

• Timing (right before midterms) and language (“Deep State,” “blatantly lied to”) make this highly partisan. Releases like this can restore trust for some while deepening skepticism for others.

Severity:
Significant on process and trust — Large-scale voter data breaches and registration flaws are serious national security/ integrity issues that justify reforms. Not “nothingburger,” but not the smoking-gun proof of a rigged 2020 outcome that flips the historical consensus without more forensic validation. The most actionable parts (noncitizen rolls, machine hardening) align with common-sense security regardless of past elections.

Implications:

Policy: Accelerates pushes for stricter federal standards on state elections (ID, citizenship verification, paper trails, audits). Could improve security long-term but risks legal fights over federal overreach.

Political: Bolsters arguments for midterms and beyond; may mobilize one side while alienating the other. Risks further polarization of election trust.

Practical: Encourages states to clean rolls and upgrade systems. Foreign adversaries will exploit any chaos.

This is a substantial release worth reviewing in detail (especially the ZIPs for primary sourcing). If you download any specific files or want me to analyze excerpts/summaries from them, paste or link and I’ll break them down. Truth-seeking requires cross-verification beyond one administration’s portal — independent audits and full IC consensus matter most.

Interesting!

This is what people cling to:

Prior comprehensive IC/DHS assessments (pre- and post-2020) consistently found no evidence that foreign actors changed vote tallies or outcomes, despite capabilities and attempts at influence. Capabilities ≠ successful manipulation at scale.

IMO those assessments are not trustworthy, and I don’t know how such manipulations could be proven. We have already seen so much: ballots being counted multiple times, people being paid to register and vote, hundreds of ballots with the same fake address, etc. I hope there is solid proof of foreign influence that changed outcomes within the documents.

scott467

I didn’t tell any friends or family to be sure to watch tonight. Burned five times too many, already.

I’m not sure what the point of the address was, besides drawing attention to the election-security section of the WH.gov website for the tiny, tiny, TINY fraction of Americans who are so deep in the weeds that they are going to parse through what could be hundreds of thousands of documents, looking for smoking guns, that will never be definitive anyway, until or unless someone, anyone, is finally arrested and prosecuted.

If CCP chyna did this thing, why hasn’t there been a declaration of war?

Or at the very least, a declaration of I’m really not happy with you, and this is exactly how you’re going to pay, and it’s going to be so painful that you will definitely think twice before even thinking about doing it again.

Imagine the damages caused by CCP chyna, to 300+ million American lives, not to mention the lives of the 100+ million foreign invader infidels?

Our entire Republic was run into the ground by Autopen’s drapery wearing wife, crack-smoking son and Hussein’s floozies’ and fem-boys.

Who do we see about compensation for that?!?

Can the entire population of America file a class-action lawsuit against the CCP, and require the U.S. government to collect on the judgment?

Can the U.S. government declare CCP chyna guilty of crimes against the Republic, and sanction and tariff them so hard that the CCP economy collapses?

Is there going to be justice, for anything in this world, either ever, or before I’m old and dead, whichever comes first?
