On this day and every day –

God is in Control
. . . and His Grace is Sufficient, so . . .
Keep Looking Up


Hopefully, every Sunday, we can find something here that will build us up a little . . . give us a smile . . . and add some joy or peace, very much needed in all our lives.

“This day is holy to the Lord your God;
do not mourn nor weep.” . . .
“Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet,
and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared;
for this day is holy to our Lord.
Do not sorrow,
for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”


. . . god of this world . . .

The phrase god of this world (or god of this age) (2 Cor 4:4) indicates that Satan is the major influence on the ideals, opinions, goals, and views of the majority of people. His influence encompasses the world’s philosophies, education, and commerce. When people live as if there is no God, they by default follow the god of this world. The unholy thoughts, destructive ideas, wild speculations, and false religions of this world have sprung from Satan’s lies and deceptions.

Satan is also called the “prince of the power of the air” in Ephesians 2:2. He is the “ruler of this world” in John 12:31. These titles and many more signify Satan’s capabilities. He wields a certain amount of authority and power in this world. He is not a king, but a prince, a ruler of some sort. In some way he rules over the world and the people in it: “The whole world is under the control of the evil one” (1 John 5:19).

This is not to say that Satan rules the world completely; God is still sovereign. Satan is not God—capital G—he is a god—small g. God, in His infinite, inscrutable wisdom, has allowed Satan to operate in this world within the boundaries God has set for him. Satan’s limits are clearly seen in Job 1 and 2. There, Satan must give an account of himself to God, and it seems he must have God’s permission to carry out his plans. At no time can Satan do all he wants, for God restricts his actions.

Satan may be the god of this world, but his domain is limited to unbelievers. Born-again children of God are no longer under the rule of Satan. God the Father “has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves” (Colossians 1:13). The apostle Paul was sent by God to turn people “from the power of Satan to God” (Acts 26:18). Unbelievers, however free they may think they are, are caught “in the snare of the devil” (2 Timothy 2:26) and lie in the “power of the evil one” (1 John 5:19).

As the god of this world, Satan exercises his power over the unbelieving world to keep them from Jesus. Second Corinthians 4:4 indicates that he is responsible for the spiritual blindness of people without Christ: “The god of this world has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ.” Satan snatches the gospel from people’s hearts (Matthew 13:19). He promotes false philosophies and “doctrines of demons” (1 Timothy 4:1, NKJV). Satan’s philosophies are the fortresses in which people are imprisoned, and they must be set free by Christ.

As the god of this world, Satan has spread his lies far and wide. Many of his lies have been successful in taking root and deceiving millions. Here are a few of his more popular ones:

• “God doesn’t exist”
• “God doesn’t care”
• “God cannot be trusted”
• “God is evil”
• “Jesus did not rise again”
• “You can go to heaven if you’re good enough”

As the god of this world, Satan puts forward his agenda, and the unbelievers in the world follow. Thankfully, our Lord is greater than the god of this world, as He proved every time He cast out a demon (e.g., Mark 1:39). Jesus came “to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness” (Isaiah 42:7). The god of this world is no match for Him (John 12:31).

I wanted to bring forward Gudthots comment from last night because I know I have seen some insurrection barbie tweets here on occasion.

TEXT:

LindellTV

@RealLindellTV

ALLEGED PSYOP TARGETING EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS EXPOSED

In the wake of @POTUS

launching war with Iran, questions are emerging about what some believe is a coordinated information operation targeting evangelical Christians online.

@EmeraldRobinson

reported that a viral piece circulating on @X

about evangelical Christianity was promoted by numerous accounts claiming to be MAGA influencers – but the article was allegedly written by Irina Pashkowskaya Sedano, a convicted felon known online as “Insurrection Barbie.”

Raising concerns about who may actually be behind the messaging – noting that the account has shifted identities over time, previously implying Jewish identity before now presenting itself as an evangelical Christian hosting theology discussions online.

She also pointed to a network of accounts allegedly connected to @DeptofWar

employees or contractors, claiming some influencers are being paid to promote certain narratives online.

The same network is also pushing what some would call “Operation Shabbat Shalom”an effort encouraging Christians to abandon traditional Sunday worship and instead observe the Jewish Sabbath on Saturday.

Former @CIA

officer @Kevin_Shipp

responded to the situation by warning that evangelical Christians are among the most heavily targeted groups for psychological operations.

“One of the largest targeted groups for mass PSYOP operations is evangelical Christians,” Shipp wrote.

He says intelligence agencies understand the political and cultural influence of the evangelical voting bloc, making them a key target for manipulation campaigns.

Gail Combs

This is the last one that I saw from her that was brought to the Q tree.

Sir ES

I dislike the attachment of the anons and Q, wherein two different perspectives are combined as (if) one perspective. Q said it explicitly, that there is Q, and there are Anons, but there isn’t any identity combining both: that is, the fake news perverted / subjugated the term “QAnon,” to confuse others.

It’s the same specious combination of ‘Judeo’ and ”Christian’ values, as if whatever differences between the two perspectives are trivial.

They are *not* the same, in both cases.

It’s one of the the first subversions one is (and engages in lies, partially at least) led to believe that the disparate religions (in part, of course) are tight partners – although they are NOT consonant.

There is Q. There are Anons. There *isn’t* any ‘Qanon.’ It’s quite a subtle shift, yet it accomplishes the confusion between / among the two separate entities.

Separately, 8kun is still up and running, because Watkins at the last moment discovered that the sites under fire were used by a different ‘registrar,’ so that 8kun was unaffected.

I wish he would have researched beforehand, and not startled the anons by lack of Intel.

I was ‘disappoint.’. TWICE!

Gail Combs

Agree on the Q is not the Anons.

Glad to hear 8kun is still up and running.

As far as religious differences, I do pony rides for various groups. Believe me I know they are NOT the same. Hindu =/= Buddist =/= Muslim =/= Baptist =/= Catholic…

Get to do an Egyptian Coptic Church service for Easter. I provide the ‘donkey (pony) for Jesus again. If it is the same guy, BOY does he look authentic!

Gail Combs

And to clean the pallet

TradeBait2

Been wanting to see this! Thanks, Gail.

TradeBait2

BTW – WATCH, folks. This is fantastic.

Gail Combs

Someone else brought it to the Qtree first. I just had the tab open.

Aubergine

Emerald Robinson is a nutcase. I wouldn’t believe her if she told me water was wet.

It is my considered opinion that, in the words of Jesus, Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

Christians find our rest in Jesus, as he promised. Constantly, every minute of every hour of every day. If a Christian chooses one 24-hour period over another to take a “day off,” that isn’t relevant to his or her Christianity.

My pastor has said his “Sabbath” is Monday. That is the day he chooses to spend with his family, not “working” or spending time with anyone except them and the Lord. I say good for him.

I’m sure somebody is going to argue with me.

pgroup2

Damn right.

Aubergine

Lol! I know a couple of people who should work in this office!

Cuppa Covfefe

But it took a right long time for him to get to the argument 😆

(I read that John Cleese had to had both knees replaced because of this sketch… talk about dedication to one’s walk in life, so to speak)…

TradeBait2

Nope – you are correct, as is your pastor.

Jesus sort of blew that one up.

Aubergine

  :wpds_smile: 

TheseTruths

A number of years ago I would click on Emerald Robinson’s materials because I thought she was a conservative news-bringer, and every time I would have a visceral reaction of a mantle of doom descending, that doesn’t happen with anyone else. My impression is that she is under a cloud of pessimism that she spreads.

Gudthots

If Emerald is the psyop (and that surely could be) then she doxxed someone and used “convicted felon” to smear Barbie’s reputation. Could the felony be a J6 conviction?

As for the Sabbath question, I will have more time later to offer some historical context for the church’s perspectives over time. Of course, Paul made it clear that we are not to judge other Christians regarding what days they consider holy.

scott467

I’m sure somebody is going to argue with me.

_____________

No argument, just some observations and review of what God’s Word says.

Observing the Sabbath was part of the Ten Commandments in the Old Testament, the fourth Commandment (Exodus 20:8-11, Exodus 31:13, Exodus 31:16-17, Deuteronomy 5:12-15).

The Sabbath was observed on Saturday, the 7th day of the week, the day God rested

……………………..
“[1] Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. [2] And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. [3] And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.” (Genesis 2:1-3, KJV).
……………………..

.
That was the day the tribes of Israel, under the Old Law / Covenant, rested and observed the Sabbath.

None of the above should be controversial.

Jeremiah prophesied that there would be a New Covenant (Jeremiah 31:31-34).

Jesus fulfilled the Law, and completed it:

……………
“For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.” (Romans 10:4, KJV)
……………

The Old Law / Old Covenant is no longer in effect, since Jesus’ resurrection and the establishment of the New Testament.

The Jews were under the Old Law, the Law of Moses, whereas Christ fulfilled the Law, and ended it (cf. Romans 10:4), nailing it to His cross (cf. Colossians 2:14), and He became “the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises” (Hebrews 8:6b, KJV), a New Testament in His blood (cf. Matthew 26:28, Mark 14:24, Luke 22:20, 1 Corinthians 11:25).

……………………….
In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.” (Hebrews 8:13, KJV)

“[24] Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. [25] But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.” (Galatians 3:24-25, KJV)
……………………….

There are numerous verses about this, and if it was not so, then there would be no New Testament, or any Christians, Christians would all be Jews, still following the Old Testament.

All of the commands in the Ten Commandments are restated in the New Testament, except observing the Sabbath.

The first day of the week is Sunday. Jesus rose from the dead on the first day of the week.

………………..
The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.” (John 20:1, KJV)
………………..
.

Jesus appeared to His disciples that same day (cf. John 20:19, 26).

……………..
“Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.” (John 20:19, KJV)
……………..

The Lord’s church was established on Pentecost, a Sunday, the first day of the week.

……………….
[1] And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. [2] And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. [3] And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. [4] And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” (Acts 2:1-4, KJV)
……………….
.

The Lord’s church was established that day, on the day of Pentecost, a Sunday, and the first time the Lord’s church is mentioned after Christ’s resurrection is at the end of Acts chapter 2, so we can be sure the Lord’s church was established that day, and people were being added to His church daily from that time onward:

………………
“[46] And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, [47] Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” (Acts 2:46-47, KJV, boldface mine)
……………….

……….
Brave: “The Holy Spirit descended on the apostles on the day of Pentecost, which occurred on the first day of the week (Acts 2:1-4). This event marked the birth of the Church, and from that point forward, early Christians gathered regularly on this day.”
……….
.

Recall that the first day of the week is Sunday.

………………………
“And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.” (Acts 20:7, KJV)

“Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.” (1 Corinthians 16:2, KJV)
……………………….

There are reasons why we are to gather together when we are able, including to encourage one another, and to be encouraged (edified) by one another, and to take up the collection for the church, among other reasons.

……………………….
“[24] And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: [25] Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” (Hebrews 10:24-25, KJV, boldface mine)
……………………….

Robert De Niro is such a retard. He’s ruined every movie he ever made, just by his behavior over the last few years. Moron.

AGREED!
never liked him much anyway

 De Niro  WHO?

Seriously. I have zero idea of who the guy is.

he’s a has been.
he might be in the dictionary under geezer

To your credit.

pgroup2

Yup. It’s really sad. He’s an artist who contributed quite a lot to his craft. But that didn’t satisfy him.

While everyone should test the boundaries of their personal envelope, there’s something to be said for staying mostly in one’s lane.

As the old saying goes: A jack of all trades and a master of none.

kalbokalbs

DeNiro was just another just another self absorbed hollyweird asshole, before he totally went off the rails.

Have been flipping off hollyweird at least two decades. The glorification of actors was, remains wholly ignorant.

Also applies to sports asswipes.

patfrederick

IKR?
so good actors are the ones who PRETEND the best to be something or someone else.
so, yeah I’m gonna trust “their” opinions? just another role imo

Gail Combs

This came up yesterday. Suposedly the Save America Act would take 60 votes. A Senator wanted to do ‘magic’ but making it a funding bill or something like that, I think it was.

However I just ran across this:

Sean Davis

@seanmdav

Understand what Thune is doing right now. It’s not enough for him to kill the SAVE America Act. Thune has to kill it while also protecting his worst RINO colleagues from being

exposed for opposing it.

How does Thune accomplish his? By avoiding a simple majority vote at all costs. Thune knows a public vote where Republicans get less than 50 votes—with people like Tillis and Curtis and McConnell and Murkowski voting against IT—is electoral poison. He doesn’t want it to pass, but he also can’t have it die at the hands of his own puke colleagues.

So how does Thune do this? By refusing to move to the already-passed House bill (this only requires a simple majority because the House message is privileged) and instead moving to a new, standalone Senate bill. A new Senate bill is not privileged, and therefore the motion to proceed to it is debatable, meaning it requires 60 votes.

Thune needs to kill the SAVE America Act, not expose any of his GOP colleagues as being against it, and be able to pretend that he tried. This is the actual Senate GOP trifecta—doing nothing while pretending they tried everything and protecting the worst of the worst the whole time.

So when you watch the GOP Senate bring up a brand new SAVE America Act bill and hold a single vote on a motion that needs 60 to pass, know that they’re doing it because they think you’re stupid.

As far as I can tell the Senate rules are made so WE the PEOPLE can not understand that they are bullSchiffing us.

patfrederick

thune is committing political suicide…he is just too stupid to realize it yet.

Gail Combs

I sure hope so.

patfrederick

this is not just a republican issue…if 85% of the people want this. if thune does not get this done…the President will sign nothing brought to his desk. I don’t remember my civics class enough to know what happens if it just sits on his desk. He didn’t say veto–congress can override that if they choose. but if it sits there…?? and he will make THUNE the public face of failure.

Gail Combs

Brave AI

If the President does not sign a bill, its fate depends on the timing of Congress’s session. 

Within 10 days while Congress is in session, if the President does not sign the bill, it automatically becomes law without their signature. 

If Congress adjourns within that 10-day period and the President does not sign, it results in a pocket veto, and the bill does not become law. 

 A pocket veto cannot be overridden, and the legislation must be reintroduced in a new session to move forward. 

Presidential signature is not required for a bill to become law—only the absence of a veto during the 10-day window while Congress remains in session. 

Recent reports indicate President Trump has stated he will not sign any bills until the SAVE America Act passes, but such a refusal would not block legislation if Congress remains in session and the 10-day period elapses. 

Since they will remain in session for the entire 4 years to prevent Trump from making temp appointments, the bills becomes law.

patfrederick

crap…the slimy bastards have the system gamed.

Aubergine

Trump could just veto every bill.

patfrederick

wouldn’t they just override them?

Aubergine

If they could get the votes, yes. But is does put them in the position of going against Trump in a big visible way.

patfrederick

some of them don’t give a shit about optics–mcconnell, paul, massie, murkowski, thune, right off the top of my head…and then there’s all the dems,
sigh…

Aubergine

I think it’s 60 votes to override a veto.

Gail Combs

Regular Vetoes and Pocket Vetoes: In Brief

This is according to Congress . gov

Regular vetoes occur when the President refuses to sign a bill and returns the bill complete with objections to Congress within 10 days. Upon receipt of the rejected bill, Congress is able to begin the veto override process, which requires a two-thirds affirmative vote in both chambers in order for the bill to become law.

Pocket vetoes occur when the President receives a bill but is unable to reject and return the bill to an adjourned Congress within the 10-day period. The bill, though lacking a signature and formal objections, does not become law. Pocket vetoes are not subject to the congressional veto override process.

Robert Baker

Congress can override a presidential veto by achieving a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.

patfrederick

and thanks for the info.

pgroup2

Brave didn’t go far enough.

Article 2, Sect. 3.-1. 

He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper; he shall receive Ambassadors and other public Ministers; he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and shall Commission all the Officers of the United States. [emphasis added by pgroup2]

There’s enough wiggle room in that clause to reserve a seat on the first-class car of the express train to SCOTUS. All he needs to do is give another State of the Union address to Congress [streamed to the world] explaining what is going on and why Congress is not really in session.

Pass the popcorn, please.

so now we got Russian-Armenian mafia getting in on the hospice fraud in CA!
article
Families who are going through the hospice experience — that is, a loved one has six months or less to live — have the added misfortune of being caught up in fraud investigations.  California, by far, leads the country in hospice fraud numbers, and of course Gavin Newsom blames President Trump for these violations.
What makes the situation especially intriguing in California are the locations of these supposed businesses:

A new investigation is adding to the growing mountain of evidence that a network of hundreds of hospices is allegedly ripping off tens of millions of dollars from taxpayers across California.

And ground zero for the alleged fraud — a stretch of road in Van Nuys:

‘You can’t throw a rock without hitting [a] hospice,’ Sheila Clark, President and CEO of the California Hospice and Palliative Care Association (CHAPCA), told CBS News. 

The new findings highlight what the California Post exclusively reported earlier this month, that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is now actively cutting off payments to suspicious operations across Los Angeles, which is home to almost half of America’s end-of-life care providers.

Even more absurd is that this is not a new discovery.  Gov. Newsom’s administration identified the fraud five years ago, and some action was taken, but not nearly enough:

His office wrote on X: ‘Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law BANNING all new hospice licenses in 2021 to curb fraud. What’s Trump doing? Making it easier for scammers to steal taxpayer dollars!’

Newsom’s office also told Newsweek: ‘In 2021, Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law banning ALL new hospice licenses. That moratorium is still in place—blocking bad actors from entering the system while the state tightens oversight of existing providers.’

(If anyone can tell me how President Trump is to blame, I’d be most grateful.)
Meanwhile, the California state administration response has been pathetically small, while the rip-off continues:

State attorney general Rob Bonta says his office has brought criminal fraud cases against more than 100 defendants in the hospice industry and about two dozen civil cases. But he acknowledged that more needs to be done.

‘We need to be responsive to the red flags and react to them, not just count them,’ Bonta told CBS. ‘Our main lane is the accountability side, the criminal investigations, the civil investigations. That’s after the damage is done though, unfortunately.’

A moratorium on issuing new hospice licenses in the state was recently extended through January 2027, because the state missed its deadline to enact new emergency regulations for hospices. 

In spite of their investigations and the moratorium on new licenses, new hospices are still managing to get licensed in California:

Despite the statewide moratorium, a ProPublica 2024 report found that new hospices were still cropping up in California and receiving Medicare certification. In one instance, 15 new hospices received Medicare certification, all operating from the same two-story building in Los Angeles, according to a ProPublica.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, shared these observations:

‘There is lots of action, it seems,’ Oz said in a You Tube video posted on Tuesday. ‘In this four-block area in Los Angeles, there are 42 hospices. So, either there are a lot of people dying here, or you’ve got fraudulent activity that is so good that everyone wants to get in on it. What we have learned is there is roughly $3.5 billion of fraud taking place here in Los Angeles in hospice and home care. It’s run, quite a bit of it, by the Russian-Armenian mafia.’

This situation is outrageous.  Not only are the American people being cheated, but the hospice patients and their families are being caught up in this fraud and abused by the mismanagement and mistreatment from these criminals.
It’s time for California to get serious about treating its dying hospice patients.

Well now, this is interesting!

Tucker Carlson is under investigation for FARA violations with Iran! This is my shocked face:

  :wpds_lol: 

Tucker Carlson on Saturday night said the Justice Department is preparing to charge him for being an unregistered foreign agent, which Carlson said the CIA recommended after reading his text messages leading up to the war on Iran. He suggested “some” CIA workers could be targeting him because of his “views about Israel.”

Carlson explained the situation from his view in a 5 minute video posted to X.

“The CIA is preparing some kind of criminal referral against me, a crime report to the Department of Justice, on the basis of a supposed crime I committed,” Carlson said. “What’s that crime? Well, talking to people in Iran before the war. They read my texts.”

https://www.mediaite.com/politics/tucker-carlson-claims-doj-will-charge-him-for-violating-foreign-agent-law-cia-read-my-texts-on-iran-war/

(Crap source, I know, but it’s all over; this was just the first one I read)

It doesn’t appear that he ever addresses the CONTENT of the text messages, though. I listened to his video. He never says WHAT he was talking to Iran about.

And Tucker had three meetings with Trump in the month before the war. What was he trying to do, and why? Was he an “unregistered foreign agent” with access to our President? Whatcha wanna bet one of the texts suggests he have a “conversation” with Trump about not attacking Iran?

I still think Tucker is a closet muslim convert.

I’ve read (but could not confirm) he is close with VP Vance.

Aubergine

Friends close, enemies closer?

Heck if I know. I’m not sure, if Tucker’s personality in person is anything like on video, that I could stand to be around him for five minutes. He gives me the ick.

patfrederick

i don’t watch most videos. but i do read–and he’s not impressing me any more. like a huge switch flipped the other way.

Aubergine

I don’t watch most videos, either. I don’t have time. I sped Tucker up to 1.5X and listened to this one, to be sure he didn’t address the contents of his texts to Iran. He did not, as I suspected.

kalbokalbs

These days, Tucker friends with JD, past tense.

patfrederick

that’s good to know!

kalbokalbs

Laughing here. Made a leap of sorts.

Tucker trashing Trump, MAGA… JD, IMO would not go near Tucker, in any forum.

Just remember – for FARA to apply, it’s not just about talking to foreigners. It’s to whom you talk after you talk to the foreigners.

Gail Combs

I also thought it had to do with getting PAID by a foreign country. A journalist would be expected to talk to a lot of different people.

Gail Combs

I thought I would go looking. This is a tweet from Grok?

Also: Should Influence Laundering Be Illegal? How It Works — and How It Involves Tucker Carlson

There is a concept in money laundering called a shell company: a legal entity that exists primarily to disguise the true origin of funds, insulating the actual beneficiary from scrutiny.

A similar dynamic, largely unaddressed in American law, operates in the world of foreign influence — Let’s call it influence laundering.

A foreign government pays a domestic consulting firm, which in turn arranges access to prominent journalists, commentators, or policymakers. The foreign government gets the media access it craves. The journalist can truthfully say he never took foreign money. And the public is none the wiser.

A close look at Qatar’s influence operations in the United States — and the swirling controversy around Tucker Carlson’s relationship with Doha — raises a pointed question: Should this kind of triangulated influence campaign be illegal? And does existing law, namely the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), already address it?

“…Should this kind of triangulated influence campaign be illegal?…”

I would say no. Any one would seek out a journalist who was favorable or at least neutral. POTUS is the only one I know of who does not, and he calls them to their face FAKE NEWS!

Aubergine

Yes. Which is why I mention those visits with Trump. Could be bad news for Carlson.

Notasmidgeon

Thanks for clarification!

Gail Combs

Well this is an interesting piece of scientific research.

The Iranians claim the Shea Muslim Arabs who ruled them are NOT Iranian. Guess what they are RIGHT!

The Iranians are an isolated genome going back to the middle of the last ice age. They are NOT of Levant/Arab descent.

(17 minutes)

Aubergine

I thought it was pretty well known that Persians are not Arabs.

patfrederick

I have seen more and more people claiming to be Persians (rather than arabs) posting happy videos about getting rid of the mullahs

pgroup2

With all due respect, Persians don’t look anything like Arabs IMO. Plus, Persian women are the finest looking females in the world. Ethiopian women are a close second, as David and Solomon can verify.

patfrederick

tbh I didn’t realize ANY one identified as persian any more.
and I agree–the persian women i have seen are stunning!

Gail Combs

It is nice to have actual scientific evidence. It is interesting that it goes back so far in time and that farming was invented about the same time in 2 distinct areas.

Brave and Free

I suppose this is as good a theory as any on Carlson.

Cuppa Covfefe

Looks like one of Hannibal Smith’s shiteating grins…

“I love it when a plan comes together” 😀

TheseTruths

This photo is hilarious in hindsight.

Trump knew Tucker was talking to Iran.

So he invites him to the Oval Office before the strike… knowing Tucker will run straight back and relay it.

Iran sees this photo.

Thinks Tucker has Trump’s ear.

Thinks Trump is bluffing.

Meanwhile Trump’s sitting there smiling because he wanted them to believe it.

Tucker’s ego sells the deception.

Khamenei buys it.

And just like that Tucker unknowingly helps take out the Supreme Leader… and now Americas biggest traitor may be heading to prison.

Perfectly played.

Wow.

I don’t know why a journalist/podcaster would be talking with Iran at such a time as this.

Aubergine

I still think Tucker has secretly converted to islam.

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 Sunday, March 15, 2026

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

2 Thessalonians 2:15 (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR 2 THESSALONIANS 2:15

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

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

Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL

PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

On a happy note:

From the Badlands Brief

89 Arrested in Florida Human Trafficking Probe

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office in Florida (which covers the Tampa metropolitan area) announced the arrest of 89 people during a multi-week undercover operation conducted between January 1 and February 6, 2026.

The effort, led by the agency’s Human Trafficking Section and Internet Predator Unit, targeted individuals seeking to sexually exploit children and purchase sex.

The operation yielded more than 1,200 felony charges (1,217 total) related to human and sex trafficking.

Authorities also rescued a missing 17-year-old girl who had been exploited and safely recovered a 2-year-old child after receiving a tip about ongoing exploitation….

Ashe adds the following commentary

Since President Trump’s second Inauguration, there have reportedly been more than 5,000 trafficking-related arrests and rescues — including kids: Operations Restore Justice, Enduring Justice, and Relentless Justice resulted in 732 arrests and the identification and/or rescue of more than 450 child victims.

That’s apparently just the start.
An analysis of government accounts on X, including the DOJ, by “grok,” found that, in addition to the 5k arrests, the government claims:

  • 1,000+ trafficking investigations
  • 200+ federal indictments
  • 100+ federal convictions (with sentences frequently ranging 15-30 years or longer)
  • 800+ trafficking victims identified and/or assisted

“The enforcement surge is disproportionately focused on sex trafficking and child exploitation, which historically account for roughly 90–95% of federal trafficking prosecutions.”

Don’t look away.
If you harm a child, you forfeit your right to breathe air. Consequences make the matter clear.
It should be made clear. This should not be controversial.
We become what we tolerate.
Prosecute all predators to the fullest extent allowable by law.

Massive Win at 5th Circuit Court for Prayer at School

Gail Combs

Remember this TEXAS where Abbot has Muslim donors and put one of the donors on the State board of higher education. Now Texas schools has Muslim prayer rooms.

2017 — My high school’s Muslim prayer room was a lesson in religious freedom

(RNS) The Muslim prayer room at Hiba Siddiqi’s public Texas high school was not only tolerated by her fellow students, it was a tangible lesson in religious tolerance…

Syed Javaid Anwar: Greg Abbott’s Top Muslim Donor in Texas’s Debate Over Sharia Law and Islamization

As Texas faces what many conservatives describe as the growing influence of Islam, one figure stands out in Republican circles: S. Javaid Anwar, also known as Syed Javaid Anwar.

Anwar, a Muslim oil executive from Midland who was born in Pakistan, has donated millions to Governor Greg Abbott’s campaigns while staying active in Muslim-American heritage groups, mosques, and community projects…

Public records show that Anwar has been Abbott’s largest individual donor in several election cycles…

 As a practicing Muslim, he serves on the Honorary Council of the Muslim American Heritage Celebration, which honors “Americans of Muslim heritage.” He is also the main supporter of Houston’s annual Ramadan Iftar dinner, a major event for Muslim leaders. In 2017, he donated $50,000 to the Islamic Society of Greater Houston after Hurricane Harvey and has given hundreds of thousands more through the Alliance for Disaster Relief to support Muslim community projects in Texas and Pakistan.

Abbott first appointed Anwar to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board in 2015. Anwar remains a member, sometimes listed as Secretary, with his term set to run until 2027. The board sets policy for all public colleges and universities in Texas, making it an influential position for a major donor who openly embraces his faith….

of course…they buy their way in.

WHAT is Happening!?

Gail Combs

I present this case to put Tucker in Context. (I do not like/watch him, but I do not like the CIA/FBI either) However I DID NOT KNOW what I was going to find. SHEESH!
  :wpds_unamused: 

18 U.S. Code § 219 – Officers and employees acting as agents of foreign principals

…(c)For the purpose of this section “public official” means Member of Congress, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner, either before or after he has qualified, or an officer or employee or person acting for or on behalf of the United States, or any department, agency, or branch of Government thereof, including the District of Columbia, in any official function, under or by authority of any such department, agency, or branch of Government…

Does this apply to Miss Lindsey? He has been back & forth to Israel trying to get a war going with Iran on Israel’s behalf.

Laura Ingraham Grills Ted Cruz on Lindsey Graham’s Secret Meetings With Netanyahu: ‘This Is of a Totally Different Level’

Laura Ingraham sought answers from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) as to why Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) secretly met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to help bring about war with Iran.

Graham and Netanyahu got their long-awaited war on Iran last weekend, when President Donald Trump agreed to joint strikes with Israel…

“To help make the case on Iran, Graham traveled several times to Israel in recent weeks, meeting with members of the country’s intelligence agency,” the Journal reported on Friday. “’They’ll tell me things our own government won’t tell me,’” he said. He spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, coaching him on how to lobby the president for action. Netanyahu showed the president intelligence that persuaded Trump to go ahead, Graham said.”

More Background: Remember the FBI targeted the Catholic Church under Biden.

January 19, 2026 G Edward Griffin
Anti-Defamation League (ADL) Chief Says He Is Working with the FBI to Monitor Americans

…Greenblatt says they’re monitoring the DSA, anti-war activists, pro-Palestine groups, “right-wing extremists,” political Islamists, Christian nationalists, and others.

“And then we train. We’re the largest trainer of law enforcement in America—extremism and hate,” Greenblatt adds. “We train 20,000 officers every year to keep our community safe.”...

The Anti-Defamation League is writing Sunday school curriculum for Hispanic evangelical churches as part of a “partnership” with the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt reveals.

“We have roughly 2,000 active synagogues in America. There are 42,000 active Hispanic evangelical churches,” Greenblatt tells an LA synagogue. “Right now, the ADL is co-writing Sunday school curriculum with them. Right now, the ADL is working on joint lobby days with them.”

>>>>>>>>>>

OK what about Tucker. Taking it he was NOT recieving funds, AND that the FISA court is run by our favorite judge  the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court .

James Boasberg

James Emanuel “Jeb” Boasberg (born 1963) is an American lawyer and jurist currently serving as the chief judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. Appointed in 2011 by President Barack Obama and confirmed by the U.S. Senate, Boasberg previously served on the Superior Court of the District of Columbia after being appointed by President George W. Bush. In 2014, Chief Justice John Roberts appointed him to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, where he was presiding judge from 2020 to 2021. That same year, Boasberg was named chief judge of the United States Alien Terrorist Removal Court.

James Boasberg – Wiki no longer shows the below but does point out Szold is a Jewish name of some well known Rabbis.

https://x.com/i/grok/share/CNmgGqVbqUdbhE9juzEqlRSKh
Is Judge Boasberg Jewish?

Yes, according to the Wikipedia entry on James Boasberg, he was born in San Francisco, California, in 1963, to Jewish parents, Sarah Margaret (née Szold) and Emanuel Boasberg III. The family later moved to Washington, D.C. This information is part of his biographical background as detailed in the web search results provided

So we know the FISA court approved spying on Tucker under Biden. There is no reason to think they actually stopped.

The law:
It is a large section but this seems to apply to Tucker

22 U.S. Code § 611 – Definitions

(d)The term “agent of a foreign principal” does not include any news or press service or association organized under the laws of the United States or of any State or other place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, or any newspaper, magazine, periodical, or other publication for which there is on file with the United States Postal Service information in compliance with section 3611[2] of title 39, published in the United States, solely by virtue of any bona fide news or journalistic activities, including the solicitation or acceptance of advertisements, subscriptions, or other compensation therefor, so long as it is at least 80 per centum beneficially owned by, and its officers and directors, if any, are citizens of the United States, and such news or press service or association, newspaper, magazine, periodical, or other publication, is not owned, directed, supervised, controlled, subsidized, or financed, and none of its policies are determined by any foreign principal defined in subsection (b) of this section, or by any agent of a foreign principal required to register under this subchapter…

I think this is lawfare, but I am no lawyer and that paragraph is Greek to me.

duchess01

WHOA !!! A BIT MUCH ON WHICH TO CHEW, GAIL !!!

Gail Combs

True, but given the surprise, I thought it needed more info to back it up.

To tell you the truth I am smelling a PSYOP to split MAGA and to peal of enough of POTUS Trump’s voters during the mid-terms to swing things in the direction of the DemonRats.

Remember, on Benny’s yesterday General Flynn warned that although POTUS has good cabinet picks the people under them are in sabotage mode.

I really doubt any of this has anything to do with religion, it has to do with CONTROL of the wealth of the world. POTUS is pealing that control away and I think this is part of the fighting to get it back.

duchess01

AGREE !!!

Gail Combs

I would really like to know how Tucker got hooked up with Qatar. It sounds like he was approached.

duchess01

A POSSIBILITY – BUT, WHY ?

Gail Combs

People keep forgetting the Gorilla in the room, the Transnational corporations and the Military-Industrial complex/

Congress is OWNED by their corporate donors.

The Transnational corporations are controlled by the financiers/City of London and they want Trump neutered for the next 2 &1/2 years.

The City of London wants Iran intact so they can create chaos at will. They are willing to forego a war right now in order to prevent long term peace.

Aubergine

Lindsey Graham is a government official. From Google AI:

Members of Congress generally do not have to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) to speak with foreign governments. While FARA requires individuals acting as agents of foreign principals to disclose their activities, U.S. government officials acting within their official capacity are not considered foreign agents and are exempt from these registration requirements. 

  • Official Duties Exemption: FARA requires individuals to register if they act under the direction or control of a foreign principal (such as a foreign government or political party) to influence U.S. policy. However, this is intended to cover lobbyists and agents, not U.S. officials performing their constitutional or legislative roles.
  • Purpose of FARA: The law aims to identify foreign influence on U.S. political processes, not to stifle legitimate communication by government officials.
  • Exceptions: While discussions and diplomacy are generally exempt, if a member of Congress were to act solely as a paid agent to influence U.S. policy on behalf of a foreign government outside their official duties, they could theoretically face scrutiny, though in practice, congressional immunity and duty-based exemptions apply. 

Graham speaks to Trump regularly.

Tucker Carlson is a private citizen, journalist or no. I believe the contents of his texts and/or emails with the foreign government will be the crux of the matter.

For example:

OK – “Hey, I’d like to set up an interview with the Supreme Leader about how he is feeling about the current global situation.”

NOT OK – “Hey, Iranian government contact friend, I had a meeting with Trump, and they are planning to (fill in the blank).”

NOT OK – Being paid by, or influenced by Iran to say: “Hi President Trump. Iran is awesome! You don’t want to bomb them. You should be friends.”

Just because Tucker is a “journalist,” he’s not allowed to do whatever he wants.

@allenanalysis
The CEO of Palantir just said the quiet part out loud.
Alex Karp — whose company builds surveillance and defense technology for the U.S. government — just openly stated that AI will deliberately shift economic power away from highly educated, often female, Democratic-leaning workers and toward vocationally trained, working-class, often male voters.

He then admitted these technologies are — his word — “dangerous” and “suicidal,” and that the only justification for deploying them is the military argument: if we don’t, our adversaries will.

So let’s be clear about what was just said on the record: A defense contractor CEO told you AI is being built to restructure the American class system, that it will destroy the economic power of an entire political demographic, and that the only way to sell it to the public is to wrap it in national security.

In this case, what could be better, than destroying the economic power of the primary demographic threat to the survival of Western Civilization?

Leftist wymyn are literally the greatest threat our country faces, because they enthusiastically vote for policies that destroy our nation.

And since this exact same problem exists in every Western nation, Leftist wymyn are the greatest threat faced by Western civilization.

“…and that the only way to sell it to the public is to wrap it in national security.

The national security argument is entirely valid, i.e., if we don’t, our enemies will (and are).

But chyna is nothing compared to the threat from within, i.e., Leftists, the large majority of whom are wymyn.

Even if they go home, 20-30 million names are in the Registration Base, available to be VOTED.

Because SCOTUS didn’t explain why, and the district judges granting injunctions now are “rationalizing” their cases around the possibilities.
BUT, there is no better example than the 9th Circuit in early Feb. simply ignoring the stays in affirming Judge Chen on the basis that SCOTUS’s lack of an explanation meant they could just ignore the stay as a substantive matter.

SHE SAID IT PERFECTLY: “Have you ever noticed that every single time there is a terrorist attack linked to Muslims, which is 99% of the time, we are immediately told about the ‘peaceful Muslim majority?'” https://x.com/i/status/2033169996378149187/video/1

“I want to ask a serious question. What is this ‘mostly peaceful majority’ DOING about the minority that keeps killing people?!”

“Like, what are they doing? Are they speaking up about it at all? Because, you know, the attacks keep happening in different cities, different countries. Same words, Allahu Akbar.”

“And we keep being told that, oh no, this has nothing to do with ideology, nothing to do with the religion, nothing to do with the belief system behind Islam. Really?”

“Because let’s think about it for a second. Have you ever seen someone exploding themselves, k*lling women and children in public, and then screaming, you know, Christ is king? I’ve never seen such thing.”

“And I am sure if this ever happened, all of us Christians would come up and be so against it.”

“We would condemn it. Like, we would be so loud that something like that would probably never happen again.”

“How much longer are we going to accept being told that just having common sense and seeing things for what they are makes you a bigot? Because the longer we refuse to tell the truth, the more innocent lives are going to be lost because of this nonsense!”

Roughly negative 25 years. Since September 11, 2001 and the aftermath, when clown George actually stood before the nation, in front of the smoking ruins of the World Trade Center, and with a straight face, said islam was a “religion of peace”.

And suddenly, a new protected-class was born.

That’s all it takes.

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.

Evening Prayer For Future Guidance

Heavenly Father, as I lie down to sleep tonight, I pray that You would guard my sleeping and protect my mind from wandering thoughts and unnecessary planning. Teach me to wait for Your perfect timing and not to try to plan my future in my own strength.
 
Lord, I know that You have scheduled every day of my life. Help me to trust You in all things and rely on You to lead me along the straight path and guide me in the direction that You would have me to go.
 
Give me patience to wait for Your perfect timing, and may I not trust in my own abilities and scheming, but rather rest in Your love and trust my future into Your hands.
 
And so now Lord, I commit this night to you, asking that I would rest soundly and wake refreshed and strong to do Your bidding. This I ask in Jesus’ precious name,
 
Amen.

Prayer Of Thanksgiving In The Evening

Praise Your holy name Heavenly Father, for granting yet another day in my life and for being with me every step of the way. Thank You for the many blessings that You have provided and the love and fellowship that I have with the friends and family that in Your grace You have placed in my life.
 
My heart is so thankful for all the many blessings that I enjoy day by day, and today I am once again reminded that Your mercies are new every morning and Your faithfulness endures from generation to generation.
 
Thank You, that I have been brought into Your family and have been made a child of God and a citizen of heaven. Words cannot express my love and devotion to You Lord
 
I pray that You would watch over me as I rest tonight, and that You would give me a restful nights sleep so that I may wake up in the morning refreshed in body and spirit and ready to do Your will. Guard all those that I love and may we all grow in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ in the days that lie ahead. This I ask in His precious name,

NYC is now doing what California did, they are raising the minimum wage, this will not work, they are treating the symptom not the disease. The Iran mission is effecting the inflation rate, soon this will be under control. Trump sold oil leases in the Gulf Of America, drill baby drill. Judge Pirro goes after the Fed and Judge Boasberg blocks her, they are protecting the source. Trump counters the SC tariff ruling. The [DS] is losing across the globe. Trump is now the hunter and he hunting down the [DS] system they established and destroying it. Iran is controlled by the [DS]/Globalists and they are no realizing that they cannot protect and use it anymore. Trump has given the allies an ultimatum, either help keep the Strait of Hormuz safe or show the world who and what you really are. The moment of truth has arrives. Trump is the lion and he is now taking out all the hyenas.

Tucker Responds to Ted Cruz’s Hilarious Tantrum

scott467

Michael Saylor, founder of MicroStrategy (MSTR, now just Strategy, same ticker symbol) has created a new way to generate money to buy Bitcoin.

Two weeks ago he bought 17,994 Bitcoin (bringing the MicroStrategy/Strategy total to 738,731 Bitcoin) for $1.28 billion dollars.

This week (tomorrow), analysts are estimating that he may have bought between 35,000 and 40,000 Bitcoin over the past week.

Where is he getting the money?

On July 25, 2025 MSTR launched a product on the Nasdaq with the ticker symbol “STRC”, and known as or called ‘Stretch’.

It is listed this way on SeekingAlpha: “STRC  Strategy Inc 9.0% SERIES A PERPETUAL STRETCH PREF STK

It is a preferred share of MSTR, and it was the biggest IPO of 2025, initially paying 9% yield, with the dividend paid monthly.

So $100,000 invested in STRC would yield $9,000, paid out monthly, so $750 per month.

It is tax deferred, because the yield is treated as a return of capital, reducing your cost basis each month.

The shares are designed to hover around the $100 price point, meaning if the price drops below $100 for some period of time (a week or a month, I forget), the interest paid goes up by 0.25% (or more, I suppose, if they want to).

The higher yield creates more demand, so the price goes back up toward $100.

When the price goes over $100 per share, they sell more STRC into the market, lowering the price back towards $100 per share.

And they use 100% of the proceeds to buy more Bitcoin.

Bitcoin strengthens their balance sheet, making their creditworthiness that much stronger, which encourages more buyers, which pushes the price upwards, which allows them sell more shares into the market, use the proceeds to buy more Bitcoin, which strengthens their balance sheet, rinse and repeat.

It has taken a few months to find the sweet spot, where the yield was high enough to create constant demand. The yield is currently at 11.5%, so an investment of $100K pays $11,500 per year, or $958.33 per month.

Last week the demand was so high (volume was over 3 million shares on Friday) that they couldn’t keep the price below $100, because apparently that was the ex-dividend date.

Meaning anyone who bought the shares the day before, gets the full one month’s worth of 11.5% dividend.

Then some of those people sell their shares the next day, so the price usually drops a dollar or less per share the day after the dividend date, and then goes back up to $100 and then over, at which point MSTR starts selling new shares to push the price back down to $100 and uses the proceeds to buy more Bitcoin.

So tomorrow morning, we’ll find out just how much Bitcoin MSTR was able to buy, and the estimates are between 35,000 and 40,000 more Bitcoin.

The massive fixed income market (pensions, sovereign wealth funds, private individuals, etc.) has decided that 11.5% yield is too good to pass up, so the flood gates started to open two weeks ago. There are graphics similar to ‘heat maps’ showing that STRC is being purchased from all over the world.

Michael Saylor is paying 11.5% yield, tax deferred, backed by Bitcoin, listed on the Nasdaq, to all takers.

And the money is coming in 😁

It comes in the front door, and he turns around and buys Bitcoin with it the same day, every day, and the total amount purchased the previous week is announced each Monday morning.

At this pace, he could soon be buying 50,000 Bitcoin per week, and then 100,000 a week.

It can only go on for so long at that pace, because there just isn’t enough Bitcoin on exchanges to fill that sort of demand.

…………………..
Brave: Global Market Size (2025): The fixed income market is projected to reach USD 153.39 trillion in 2025, according to Mordor Intelligence.

Question: What is the average yield on the global fixed income market?

Brave: “The average yield on the global fixed income market does not have a single uniform figure due to the diversity of instruments and regions, but benchmarks provide useful reference points.

As of early 2026, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index (a broad measure of global investment-grade debt) has a yield to maturity of approximately 4.69%, according to Bloomberg data from March 13, 2026. 

Key regional and sector yields include:

U.S. Aggregate Index: ~4.94%
Eurozone (Pan-Euro Aggregate): ~2.63%
Emerging Markets USD Aggregate: ~8.32%
Asia-Pacific Aggregate: ~7.01%

Additionally, 10-year government bond yields vary significantly by country:

United States: ~4.28%
United Kingdom: ~4.82%
Germany: ~2.98%
Japan: ~2.24%
India: ~6.68%
Brazil: ~14.32%

These disparities reflect differences in inflation, monetary policy, and credit risk. Therefore, the “average” yield depends heavily on the specific index or portfolio composition.”
…………………..
.

Saylor is offering 11.5% yield, tax deferred, paid monthly, backed by Bitcoin. The $153 trillion dollar fixed income market just woke up and began to notice two weeks ago.

A tiny trickle of $153 trillion came into STRC two weeks ago. A bigger trickle came in last week. 1% of $153 trillion is $1.53 trillion.

The entire market cap for Bitcoin is only $1.44 trillion.

If just 1% of the global fixed income market invests in STRC to get that 11.5% tax deferred yield — which Saylor then uses to buy Bitcoin with — that’s more than the entire market cap of Bitcoin.

If Michael Saylor bought 40,000 Bitcoin this past week (we find out tomorrow am), MSTR’s total goes up to 778,000 Bitcoin. He will be well over 800,000 Bitcoin the following week, and at that pace, should hit 1,000,000 Bitcoin in a month or so.

That would be nearly 7% of all the Bitcoin that will ever exist, and he’s not selling. It’s permanently off the market.

I have never heard of anyone who was so committed, so convicted, so all-in on his investment thesis.

Saylor is going all the way 😎😁

scott467

“So, Saylor says. (Until Saylor does, sell.)”

_____________

That’s what everyone is watching out for.

If he does sell, that would hurt confidence, which would cause a lot of selling, which would cause the price per share (both MSTR and STRC) to go down.

A few months ago, Saylor raised more cash to cover the yield payments for at least a couple years.

…………………………….
Question: “How much cash did Michael Saylor raise recently, to hold in reserve, to make yield payments on STRC and other instruments, to calm investor concerns?”

Brave reply: “Recent Cash Reserve Increase
Strategy (MSTR), led by Michael Saylor, raised $747.8 million in late December 2025 through the sale of common stock, increasing its cash reserve to approximately $2.2 billion. 
 
This move was confirmed in an SEC filing dated December 22, 2025, and reported by CoinDesk and Bloomberg.

Purpose of the Cash Reserve
The so-called “USD Reserve” is specifically designated to fund dividend payments on Strategy’s preferred shares, including the STRC (Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock). 

At the $2.2 billion level, the reserve is sufficient to cover 32 months of preferred dividends, providing long-term financial stability without requiring Bitcoin sales.

Investor Concerns and Market Context
The reserve buildup followed a period of declining Bitcoin prices — down about 30% from its October 2025 peak — and growing skepticism about Strategy’s ability to meet its $824 million in annual interest and dividend obligations without selling BTC.

The company’s mNAV (market net asset value) had fallen to around 0.87x, meaning its stock traded below the value of its Bitcoin holdings, making equity issuance dilutive.

STRC Dividend Structure
STRC pays a floating annual dividend, which as of March 2026 stands at 11.5%, distributed monthly in cash. 

The rate is adjusted monthly to keep the share price near its $100 par value, reducing volatility and making it attractive to yield-seeking institutional investors. 
 
Recent increases in the payout reflect efforts to stabilize demand amid market downturns.

Bitcoin Holdings and Financial Strategy
Strategy continues to hold over 720,000 BTC, acquired at an average cost of ~$75,985 per coin.

While it paused Bitcoin purchases during the December 2025 capital raise, it resumed buying in early 2026, funding acquisitions through both common stock and STRC issuances. The broader strategy remains focused on growing Bitcoin holdings while using instruments like STRC to generate sustainable yield.”

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

Iran has long been known as a Master of Media Manipulation and Public Relations. They are Militarily ineffective and weak, but are really good at “feeding” the very appreciative Fake News Media false information. Now, A.I. has become another Disinformation weapon that Iran uses, quite well, considering they are being annihilated by the day. They showed phony “Kamikaze Boats,” shooting at various Ships at Sea, which looks wonderful, powerful, and vicious, but these Boats don’t exist — It’s all false information to show how “tough” their already defeated Military is! The five U.S. Refueling Planes that were supposedly struck down and badly damaged, according to The Wall Street Journal’s false reporting, and others, are all in service, with the exception of one, which will soon be flying the skies. Buildings and Ships that are shown to be on fire are not — It’s FAKE NEWS, generated by A.I. For instance, Iran, working in close coordination with the Fake News Media, shows our great USS Abraham Lincoln Aircraft Carrier, one of the largest and most prestigious Ships in the World, burning uncontrollably in the Ocean. Not only was it not burning, it was not even shot at — Iran knows better than to do that! The story was knowingly FAKE and, in a certain way, you can say that those Media Outlets that generated it should be brought up on Charges for TREASON for the dissemination of false information! The fact is, Iran is being decimated, and the only battles they “win” are those that they create through AI, and are distributed by Corrupt Media Outlets. The Radical Leftwing Press knows this full well, but continues to go forward with false stories and LIES. That’s why their Approval Rating is so low, and I can win a Presidential Election, IN A LANDSLIDE, getting only 5% positive Press — They have no credibility! I am so thrilled to see Brendan Carr, the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), looking at the licenses of some of these Corrupt and Highly Unpatriotic “News” Organizations. They get Billions of Dollars of FREE American Airwaves, and use it to perpetuate LIES, both in News and almost all of their Shows, including the Late Night Morons, who get gigantic Salaries for horrible Ratings, and never get, as I used to say in The Apprentice, “FIRED.” Thank you for your attention to this matter!

SD: “Some additional contexts not included in the British-centric financial review below.

(1) Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae will be at the White House next week. This meeting was scheduled several weeks before Operation Epic Fury began. The timeline continues to indicate that President Trump’s primary geopolitical focus is on China, not necessarily the U.K-EU angle, although that is a materially significant overlay.

(2) “A major U.S. weapons package for Taiwan worth about 14 billion dollars is awaiting approval from Donald Trump and could be announced after his planned visit to China later this month, according to sources familiar with the discussions. The proposed deal would be the largest U.S. arms sale ever to Taiwan and comes as military tensions between China and the self-ruled island continue to rise.” {SOURCE}
