This is a good thread, and it highlights some of the things I’ve been saying since election night. Things like: There will be no resistance 2.0. The sane dems will come to support major parts of Trumpism. This period reminds me of the fall of the Berlin wall. The lying legacy media destroyed itself during the election. The lying legacy media continues to dig their hole deeper by how they are reacting to the loss and Trump’s nominees. The gop establishment are still a bit delusional and think they can stand in the breech. This isn’t 2016 And while the thread doesn’t draw any conclusions, it’s clear that most have no idea what’s about to hit them come Jan 20th. We will see a blitzkrieg like we have never seen before. Energy prices will crash. Regulations will be gutted, illegal immigration will come to a stop, deportations will be swift, and pink slips will be going out to 10,000s of gov workers. Wars will end, hostages will be released, tarrifs will be placed, and on and on. It’s going to be glorious, and the majority of the country will celebrate. While many on the left’s major players will try to hide or flee. The lying legacy media won’t have any idea on what to cover or even what narrative to push. And as each domino falls, it builds momentum for the next and the next and the next to fall. By July 4th, 2026, much of America will be in a totally different place and mindset.

Dr. Mark Hyman: “Diabetes reversible, heart disease reversible, Alzheimer’s, now Richard Isaacson has done amazing work showing how we can reverse Alzheimer’s using aggressive lifestyle interventions.” “We’ve spent, this is a great example about $2 billion and over 400 studies trying to find drugs for Alzheimer’s and nothing has worked. The drugs that are approved are extremely expensive, have marginal benefit, a lot of side effects and cost a huge amount of money and may delay your entry into nursing home by two or three months. That’s a win. That’s not very good.” “Now there’s a couple of trials that have been done. The finger trial out in Europe and the pointer trial, which is emerging, that showed aggressive lifestyle intervention, diet, exercise, managing stress, sleep, optimizing all your risk factors. was able to not just slow the progression of Alzheimer’s and dementia, but to reverse it. This is published data. This is not my opinion.” “Richard Isaacson also has published this data. And now using biomarkers, and we can actually test with function, soon we’ll be adding biomarkers for Alzheimer’s. So now there’s blood tests for Alzheimer’s. So you don’t have to wait until you forget your keys. And also for cancer, you’re asking about cancer, we do a multi-cancer.” “So on imaging, which is very expensive and difficult and not- Brain imaging. Yeah, brain imaging. You can see the changes up to 30 years before you get Alzheimer’s as a symptom. With blood tests, it’s not as far as that. We’re still figuring out what those times are, but you can see start, these proteins start to develop in the blood that indicate there’s something happening and you can then intervene early.” “And the thing about Alzheimer’s is that if you intervene early, you can have an incredible benefit to help slow the progression and delay it and actually reverse it. And I’ve seen this in my patients. I wrote a book about this, the Ultramine solution 15 years ago, the Dale Bredesen’s written a book called the End of Alzheimer’s and documenting that we have to get through causes.” “I think it’s a medical paradigm shift. You know, I think as most doctors are in a world that’s flat world, they don’t understand that the world is round. We’ve shifted a paradigm scientifically from a disease-based diagnostic system to understanding the body as an integrated ecosystem. And so the work of people like Lee Ray Hood from the Institute for Systems Biology, his Phenome Project, is mapping out how. our understanding of disease is completely wrong.” “It’s based on labeling people according to symptoms and where it is in their body rather than on mechanisms and causes. So I wrote a book called Young Forever, which is about longevity. We talked about it, I think, last time I was on your show. And in the book, I talk about the scientists who come up with this model of what are the root causes of aging?” “Because we think aging is just, it’s gonna happen inevitable. We’re gonna get sick, we’re gonna get older, we’re gonna get frail, we’re gonna get weak. and they’ve identified the underlying biology behind that. So if we cured heart disease and cancer from the face of the planet, we might extend life five to seven years. You can get the same thing with meaning and purpose or playing tennis.” “But if you actually drill with the hallmarks of aging, the things that really go wrong, inflammation, mitochondrial insure, or nutrition, you can act, and your microbiome, all the things that underlie disease, you could extend life by 30 or 40 years, which means living to 120, which is a crazy notion, right?” So we now understand biology in a very different way than we did before, and it hasn’t translated into the clinic. And so why I co-founded Function Health with my co-founders was to help accelerate this gap, to kind of leapfrog over this ossified system. But we need to change.”

NEWS: Tensions continue to rise over mass deportation responsibilities as we get closer to President Trump taking office. This time between the Sheriff and San Diego County Board of Supervisors. Sheriff Kelly Martinez officially announces she will not side with any “super sanctuary” policy in place in San Diego. She pointed out that she is an independently elected official, which she is, and the Board does not set policy for her office, which they don’t. Essentially, the Sheriff just called out the Democrats on the Board for virtue signaling, saying she had made her position clear and they knew she would not adhere to this policy before they voted 3-1 to approve it. Good for Sheriff Kelly Martinez for being on the right side of history with President Trump. We have 40 days left until Liberation Day begins, America!

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Company manners are appreciated. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog out discussions best saved for a wrestling mat. If, for some reason, this site is not available, head over to the UTree and visit the post at the top of the list or the closest rescue thread.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

THAT MEANS THAT ALL OF US HERE ARE ENTITLED TO OUR OPINIONS AND PREJUDICES, ETC., SO LONG AS THEY CAUSE NO PHYSICAL HARM TO OTHERS OR DOXX OUR FELLOW TREE DWELLERS.

All opinions here are valued for the diversity they bring to the issues, and the shaping of understanding regarding topics for which many of us do not have all information. Correcting the record on any one topic is appreciated.

Be careful in expressing thoughts as we would all like to think well of the rest of the group, and ill-thought out comments have a way of wrecking that for everyone.

Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

Luke 1:26-38

26In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28And he came to her and said, “Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you!” 29But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. 30And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. 32He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 33and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there will be no end.” 34And Mary said to the angel, “How shall this be, since I have no husband?” 35And the angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. 36And behold, your kinswoman Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren. 37For with God nothing will be impossible.” 38And Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

Physicians in the United States are banned from owning hospitals. That’s not a conspiracy theory—it’s Section 6001 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), passed in 2010. Here’s how it happened: •Congress needed votes for the ACA. •The American Hospital Association (AHA) made a deal: They’d back the law if Congress banned new physician-owned hospitals. Why? To protect big hospital monopolies from competition. With insurers taking a larger cut under the ACA, hospitals wanted a guarantee they’d get theirs too. The result? •No new physician-owned hospitals for over a decade. •Patients are stuck with fewer choices, higher expenses, and less innovation. •Meanwhile, studies show physician-owned hospitals consistently deliver better outcomes and higher satisfaction. Here’s what blows my mind: Almost no one knows this. Like 99% of Americans. Why? •Because this deal was buried in legislative fine print. •Because the healthcare industry is more interested in protecting profits than educating the public. •Because we’ve normalized the idea that this is just how healthcare works. But here’s the truth: If you want better healthcare—lower expenses, better outcomes, more options—you need competition. And that starts with ending policies like this. How can we fix healthcare if no one even knows it’s broken? So, now you know. #health #care #healthcare

If you **still** can’t tell at this point how this ‘game’ is played, you’re probably still asleep in the Matrix. Shall I tell you? How this game is played? They’re trying to set Trump up for 4 years of narrative bombing. They’re rushing to empower AQ/ISIS all over again just like they did the last time under that gay motherfucker Obama. Do you not know? Can you not see? They’ve already earmarked hundreds of billions of dollars that the international MIC is going to spend ‘containing’ these CIA/Mossad paramilitary Operation Gladio groups they created and now empowered to take over Syria. Bad enough that ISIS was allowed by NATO and the West to gallivant around the region from 2008-2017 in those oh-so-slow moving car/truck caravans up and down the highways as they committed their mass executions and depravities. They had a magical mystery air shield that prevented their convoys from being blown back to the Stone Age. Weird how that worked, huh? They managed to seize and HOLD vast swaths of territory for YEARS while that gay motherfucker Obama did the helpless shrugging act, acting like he was trying OH SO VERY HARD to ‘contain’ them, but nothing he could really do. Nothing seemed to work, don’t cha’ know? Guess what? He wasn’t really trying. No one was, really. Because ISIS was a creation of the West and was a tool being used to provide the EXCUSE for all the MIC money-laundering and defense contracting/industry money shuffle. Same fucking thing they did with Al Qaeda. Trump will declassify the truth about what that fucking traitor No Name and Hillary and Obama and all the rest were doing in Benghazi. Trillions of dollars went into the ‘need’ to ‘promote democracy’ in that region after 9/11. And then Syria, and then to combat the mysterious rise and dominance of ISIS. And now here we fucking go again. Same players, same playbook. If you’re pretending to fall for this, you must be in on it. As for the people who’ve figured out what’s been going on, we’ve had ENOUGH OF THIS SHIT. Trump will shut this down immediately when he comes in. They are counting on that. So here’s what you can expect to happen once Trump stays out of it. They’re gonna spend 4 years screaming he’s ‘abandoning democracy!’ when he doesn’t send hundreds of billions of dollars to keep the MIC/CIA/Mossad proxies ‘contained’ in Syria. They’re gonna insist he get in there and ‘save Israel’ from this self-generated threat. And when he doesn’t they’re gonna use this to attack him. No no, don’t thank me. This is what I do for living. It’s my contribution to The Great Awakening. Get a different playbook, you fucking losers.

Isaiah 40:1-11

1Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. 2Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received from the LORD’s hand double for all her sins. 3A voice cries: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. 5And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken.” 6A voice says, “Cry!” And I said, “What shall I cry?” All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the flower of the field. 7The grass withers, the flower fades, when the breath of the LORD blows upon it; surely the people is grass. 8The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand for ever. 9Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah, “Behold your God!” 10Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. 11He will feed his flock like a shepherd, he will gather the lambs in his arms, he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young.

As you watch the pieces move about the board, if you have some idea of what the endgame looks like, you’re a very happy person these days. Hunter can talk now. About EVERYTHING HE KNOWS. Hell, as many of you know, I suspect he’s been talking for years behind the scenes. But now they can begin rolling out ‘the largest criminal investigations [note the plural, please] in modern day history.’ Declass is coming. They can’t stop it because the evidence was compiled years ago and patriots have been safeguarding it. The country is now ready to see it all. The country was not ready to see any of this in 2017. Or in 2020. Hell, not even by 2023 was much of the country ready to see the Awful Truth. Now? The battlespace is prepared. We are in position to finish the enemy off. When the Declass happens and it all comes out about JFK, 9/11, the Fed, where all the Ukraine billions actually went, what 100 bn/yr in ‘foreign aid’ actually is, where all the missing children went, Epstein Island & who was compromised and controlled there, etc. etc.?

Don’t listen to anybody telling you nothing is happening. News Flash: Trump was NEVER in any real legal danger. He knew that Soros prosecutors would go after him. He “purposely” took the slings and arrows to set future “precedent” so that past presidents are no longer above the law. Presidents can now be prosecuted for crimes once they’ve left office. Trump didn’t commit a single crime and knew he would never be sentenced. Now for the Boomerang. Have you noticed lately that a whole lot of judges are suddenly standing for the constitution instead of playing politics? What’s changed? Have you heard the term “enemy combatant”? These judges are making a choice to be on the right side of history. Do you want more evidence of that? “Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been ordered by a local judge to release all communications between her office, Special Counsel Jack Smith’s office, and the January 6th Committee regarding her RICO case against President Donald Trump and his allies, after she was found to have violated federal law by withholding them.” https://zerohedge.com/political/fani-full-release-ordered-after-fulton-da-sat-rico-records… Fani Willis was bringing a RICO case against Trump. But now she has to turn over all communications she had with other “enemy combatants” that were helping her in a conspiracy to frame Trump. Now she is going to be exposed and will find herself being prosecuted in a RICO case of treason. The perfect boomerang! This was always going to be the outcome. This is just one sting operation. There are so many more about to be exposed. Greatest military planning in history.

Please review our HOST and site owner’s Guidelines for posting and discussion for this site. Wolf is kind enough to put up with *most* of us and our antics after thorough vetting. Violators of the baiting and deliberately attempting to divide the group rules WILL face consequences.

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Company manners are appreciated. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog out discussions best saved for a wrestling mat. If, for some reason, this site is not available, head over to the UTree and visit the post at the top of the list or the closest rescue thread.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

THAT MEANS THAT ALL OF US HERE ARE ENTITLED TO OUR OPINIONS AND PREJUDICES, ETC., SO LONG AS THEY CAUSE NO PHYSICAL HARM TO OTHERS OR DOXX OUR FELLOW TREE DWELLERS.

All opinions here are valued for the diversity they bring to the issues, and the shaping of understanding regarding topics for which many of us do not have all information. Correcting the record on any one topic is appreciated.

Be careful in expressing thoughts as we would all like to think well of the rest of the group, and ill-thought out comments have a way of wrecking that for everyone.

Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

There is one person at the center of everything that nobody talks about. Focus on the right target. The Biden’s are not the target. They are the tool to expose it all. They are the “doorway” to much bigger players. There is one person that has kept his head down and disappeared. There is one person that everyone has forgotten about. Why is a “corrupt DOJ” at the center of the narrative war right now? Confirmations? Pardons? Convictions?(Trump/Hunter) All focusing the American people on a completely corrupt justice system that needs to be dismantled and rebuilt to follow the constitution. But reforming the system will not happen unless the people within the Corrupt DOJ, who have committed crimes and treason, are prosecuted. That’s coming. But you need to realize who the real targets are. The Biden’s are not the real target. Merrick Garland is not the real target. The real target is someone in hiding, who protected the entire Obama insurgency that completely corrupted our government and shredded our constitution. This one person was responsible for hiding the crimes instead of prosecuting them. Who is it? Do you remember Eric Holder? Who is the bigger player? Eric Holder or Merrick Garland? Do you remember all the crimes and treason that happened during the Obama administration? Do you remember Benghazi? We won’t forget! Too many crimes to list. Eric Holder took the two tier justice system to a whole new level. Q said this about Eric Holder. Q drop 2459 Nov 07, 2018 5:53:26 PM EST https://x.com/ericholder/sta/EricHOLDER/status/1060263157262893056… Imagine if the new acting AG now releases all previously ‘blocked’ doc requests by the House (including the [RR] secondary CLAS scope doc). Stealth Bombers fly undetected. The ‘Red Line’ months old 4am narrative should be updated. Pain coming. Q Do you remember who Trump placed as “acting AG”? Matthew Whitaker. Do you really think Whitaker didn’t release all the documents that Holder and his embedded minions were blocking from Congress and “other” ongoing investigations? Do you remember this portion of a Q drop? Q drop 2501 Nov 25, 2018 WHITAKER (in conjunction w/ OIG) approved the release of CLAS docs 1-4 as requested by the House Committee and as ORDERED BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. Will the release occur prior to scheduled testimony? List advantages. Will the release occur post scheduled testimony? List advantages. If those testifying ‘know’ select CLAS docs will become public [self-incrimination] how might that alter/change their testimony? DC has become RAT infested. Trump declassified everything and all the evidence has been presented before grand juries for many years now. Eric Holder is mostly quiet for a reason. He’s panicked. Guess who else is panicked? Q drop 603 Jan 24, 2018 2:54:08 PM EST TODAY, former President Barack HUSSEIN Obama formally retained COUNSEL (9/WW). GOD BLESS YOU ALL. Q The Biden’s aren’t panicked anymore.

Rosenstein got them ALL to trust him by giving Comey exactly what he was demanding after he was fired by Trump: a Special Counsel to investigate the ‘SpyGate claims’. Which Comey knew all along were hoaxes created by the Clinton campaign and brought to him by her operatives. Trump and Sessions and Mueller helped Rosenstein set the plotters up. That’s why the cover story about Mueller being there to interview for the FBI Director’s job was invented and given to the news media. But Mueller wasn’t there to interview for the vacant FBI Director post. He was there to help Rosenstein set up the RICO conspirators, who’d been actively plotting against Trump while he was a candidate, and continued into treason once he was sworn in as the nation’s 45th President. Once Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Schiff, Warner and the other plotters all trusted Rosenstein, he compiled evidence against them and handed it to a secret Special Counsel using a federal grand jury so secret, it could actually SPY on members of the Gang of Eight without any of them knowing about it. Schiff/Swalwell didn’t find out about they were being spied on until the federal gag order wasn’t renewed for a fourth year, and Apple quickly alerted them that their electronic comms had been targeted by a federal grand jury investigation for 3+years. Schiff, Swalwell & the other 70 or so people in/around the US Congress who have been influence peddling and making under the table $$$ by giving 1. foreign entities 2. news media 3. corporations and defense industry contractors access to classified materials had one hope until Nov. 5: That they could successfully stop Donald Trump from returning to the White House, and appointing an AG and an FBI Director who would have the GUTS to use all that compiled evidence and charge and prosecute them for what they did. They failed to stop him. And now they’re in a panic. Well all of them that were on the Gang of Eight **except for** Devin Nunes. Ain’t life grand?

From listening to reports around the internet, there seem to be about 12 senators in the DC republican party who think they can stop Trump or at least bloody his mandate. The strategy appears to be to have 2 or 3 hard nos on his nominees with a rotating fourth or fifth to take the slings and arrows on that particular nominee. Personally, I don’t think it will work, but it appears those in DC are centering on this strategy….good luck…notice Trump hasn’t entered into the conversation yet. It appears he is allowing the senate to save face. Will they take the offer, or will he have to browbeat them into submission? Can he?

After listening to some news responses today from the corporate woke lying media and other former government crooks and conspirators regarding HB’s pardon, I’m in one of those moods where I want @realDonaldTrump to go scorched earth on minute one of day one. The left (and many in the RINO compound) screwed America (and many of us, including yours truly) so bad, they deserve nothing, nada, zilch. The country was nearly destroyed by these pr!ck$ and they continue to spew their bullsh!t through their mouthpiece talking heads. Just stop! All you corporate liars and all your talking heads deserve is our utter contempt. As for those serving inside of government right now, it is time to confess your sins or forever hold your breath, because #WeThePeople are so sick and tired of the severe corruption inside of our government and we are no longer going to tolerate sheepish behavior—GET A PAIR! And lastly, for those members of Congress (House and Senate) who fail to confirm Trump’s nominees, woe be tide you. Like history teaches, you have awoken a sleeping giant in the guise of the American people and we will not relent, we will not give up, we will prevail in this, a 21st century version of an American Revolution. And we’re just getting started. Fight, Fight, Fight!!!

I’m extremely thankful Biden and his handlers issued this pardon. All it’s done is bring more attention to all of their offshore criminality, and confirm that Joe and the Dems are trying to cover their tracks. It also discredited the Dems/MSM, and opened the door for Trump to pardon anyone he likes without backlash. It’s proven the Dems are corrupt and will lie and cheat whenever it suits them. It also proves the Dems sit on a false moral high ground. Besides, Hunter is not who we are ultimately after. He is just a bagman. He is the willing family member who is just a proxy for Joe, who is a proxy for Obama, who is a proxy for Soros, who is proxy for whoever is above him, and so on. Hunter is not the mastermind of this operation. He was just the front man behind many layers of separation for the Deep State, and was compensated with millions of dollars for hookers and blow. Hunter is just a puppet. This pardon is not going to make the situation go away. It did the opposite. It just made the situation bigger.

Dear KAG: 20241128 Thanksgiving Open Thread

And yet, again, I am resurrecting the old Thanksgiving thread as cooking takes center stage in the Depat household.

Being full of Chinese take-out and having started Thanksgiving cooking without the matriarch, I’m digging up an old opener. Since Twitter/X is being tempermental, not many current items.

Anti-Thanksgiving? UnAmerican at best, treason more likely.

So, what REALLY happened to bring about Thanksgiving here in the former colonies of England, France and Spain?????

The Great Thanksgiving Hoax

This official story is nothing like what really happened. It is a fairy tale, a whitewashed and sanitized collection of half-truths which divert attention away from Thanksgiving’s real meaning.

The official story has the Pilgrims boarding the Mayflower, coming to America, and establishing the Plymouth colony in the winter of 1620–21. This first winter is hard, and half the colonists die. But the survivors are hard working and tenacious, and they learn new farming techniques from the Indians. The harvest of 1621 is bountiful. The pilgrims hold a celebration, and give thanks to God. They are grateful for the wonderful new abundant land He has given them.

The official story then has the Pilgrims living more or less happily ever after, each year repeating the first Thanksgiving. Other early colonies also have hard times at first, but they soon prosper and adopt the annual tradition of giving thanks for this prosperous new land called America.

The problem with this official story is that the harvest of 1621 was not bountiful, nor were the colonists hard-working or tenacious. 1621 was a famine year and many of the colonists were lazy thieves.

In his History of Plymouth Plantation, the governor of the colony, William Bradford, reported that the colonists went hungry for years because they refused to work in the field. They preferred instead to steal food. He says the colony was riddled with “corruption,” and with “confusion and discontent.” The crops were small because “much was stolen both by night and day, before it became scarce eatable.”

In the harvest feasts of 1621 and 1622, “all had their hungry bellies filled,” but only briefly. The prevailing condition during those years was not the abundance the official story claims, it was famine and death. The first “Thanksgiving” was not so much a celebration as it was the last meal of condemned men.

But in subsequent years something changes. The harvest of 1623 was different. Suddenly, “instead of famine now God gave them plenty,” Bradford wrote, “and the face of things was changed, to the rejoicing of the hearts of many, for which they blessed God.” Thereafter, he wrote, “any general want or famine hath not been amongst them since to this day.” In fact, in 1624, so much food was produced that the colonists were able to begin exporting corn.

What happened? After the poor harvest of 1622, writes Bradford, “they began to think how they might raise as much corn as they could, and obtain a better crop.” They began to question their form of economic organization.

This had required that “all profits & benefits that are got by trade, traffic, trucking, working, fishing, or any other means” were to be placed in the common stock of the colony, and that, “all such persons as are of this colony, are to have their meat, drink, apparel, and all provisions out of the common stock.” A person was to put into the common stock all he could, and take only what he needed.

This “from each according to his ability, to each according to his need” was an early form of socialism, and it is why the Pilgrims were starving. Bradford writes that “young men that were most able and fit for labor and service” complained about being forced to “spend their time and strength to work for other men’s wives and children.” Also, “the strong, or man of parts, had no more in division of victuals and clothes, than he that was weak.” So the young and strong refused to work and the total amount of food produced was never adequate.

To rectify this situation, in 1623 Bradford abolished socialism. He gave each household a parcel of land and told them they could keep what they produced, or trade it away as they saw fit. In other words, he replaced socialism with a free market, and that was the end of the famines.

Socialism only works in religious order settings, and then, it doesn’t really work there, either.

From our friend Gail:

The Christian Ethics Behind the Pilgrims’ Rejection of Communism

One misconception that is still with us is that the Pilgrims adopted socialism out of religious conviction, as if Christian ethics requires a Platonic communist utopia. Galles notes that this is a misconception, but it is beyond the scope of his essay to provide the full historical back drop to that initial fateful economic design.

In fact, as Bradford makes clear, the Pilgrims did not desire to establish Christian communism. The Pilgrims’ original communal property arrangements were foisted upon them by their colonial sponsors. The sponsors did this after they learned that they would not be granted a monopoly of fishing rights in Cape Cod. The sponsors’ original agreement with the Pilgrims was such that the Pilgrims were to work for four days for the sponsoring company and then would have two days to work for themselves. The sponsors later changed their deal and told the Pilgrims that they would have to work all six days of the work week for the sponsors. At the end of seven years, the Pilgrims would be granted title to the property they worked. The Pilgrims were not happy with the change, several of them recognizing that the new arrangement would make them virtual slaves of the sponsors, but they went along with the deal because many had already made large investments toward the move and they were convinced that emigrating to the New World is what God wanted them to do.

Also of interest may be the story of Squanto as told by Dr. Taylor Marshall. Unfortunately, this is only available on YouTube, so I am providing links.

And, of course, Louis Anderson telling of Thanksgiving at his house.

And, true story, we were at some relatives’ house for a September fish fry, and a cousin said, “Do we have everything out?”

In unison, several of us said, “THE CRANBERRIES!”

As usual, this is the daily thread, the place to put all information that needs to be out there – Q drops, Q drop decodes, riot information, rumors about MAGA rallies starting up again, news flashes, Chy-na flu updates, fashionable mask photos, satire, memes, and of course cute animal videos.

In the meantime, the short and sweet version of “THE RULES” is here borrowed from Tuesday:

Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.

  1. No food fights – IN HONOR OF OUR PAT, SUSPENDED FOR TODAY ONLY
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone. ALSO FOR TODAY ONLY, BYOB – BRING YOUR OWN BOURBON.

Since it is almost the weekend, the reminders are in place to not swing from the chandeliers, wash your hands and face, and be nice to the liberals whether they deserve it or not. Making your bed, OTOH, is optional.

SIRACH 50:22-24

22And now bless the God of all, who in every way does great things; who exalts our days from birth, and deals with us according to his mercy. 23May he give us gladness of heart, and grant that peace may be in our days in Israel, as in the days of old. 24May he entrust to us his mercy! And let him deliver us in our days!

PSALMS 138:1-5

1I give thee thanks, O LORD, with my whole heart; before the gods I sing thy praise; 2I bow down toward thy holy temple and give thanks to thy name for thy steadfast love and thy faithfulness; for thou hast exalted above everything thy name and thy word. 3On the day I called, thou didst answer me, my strength of soul thou didst increase. 4All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, for they have heard the words of thy mouth; 5and they shall sing of the ways of the LORD, for great is the glory of the LORD.

1 CORINTHIANS 1:3-9

3Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 4I give thanks to God always for you because of the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus, 5that in every way you were enriched in him with all speech and all knowledge — 6even as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you — 7so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ; 8who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

LUKE 17:11-19

11On the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Sama’ria and Galilee. 12And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance 13and lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” 14When he saw them he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. 15Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; 16and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. 17Then said Jesus, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? 18Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” 19And he said to him, “Rise and go your way; your faith has made you well.”

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all. Remember, after the meal, it is perfectly acceptable to look for a place to lie down.

Another Congress Member Insider Trading for Matt Gaetz to investigate Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin’s Net Worth QUADRUPLED Between 2018-2022 From $12m -> $63m He bought shares of a water meter company just 2 weeks before Tulsa, Oklahoma announced replacing all water meters costing $94 million How did he know?! That’s not all, other congress members made the trade and the water meter replacements are being done nationwide “How is it possible that even though the congressional salary is a $174,000 a year, all these lawmakers are worth millions of dollars? That’s because they often make much more than that in the stock market. I’ll give you a perfect example, Senator Markwayne Mullin from Oklahoma. His net worth almost quadrupled between 2018 and 2022. January 4th, early this year, he bought shares of a company called Badger Meter Incorporated, ticker BMI. Now, Badger Meter, as their name suggests, makes water meters. The things that calculate how much water you use. So stick with me. Remember earlier when I said senator Mullen is from Oklahoma? The reason that’s important is because just 2 weeks after Mullin bought shares with the water meter company, I came across an announcement by the city of Tulsa, Oklahoma saying that it has begun the installation of 145,000 automated water meters across the city at a cost of $94,000,000. The exact same product which was made by Badger Meter, the company he bought stock in just 2 weeks earlier. And it’s not just Tulsa doing this, this is going on across the country. That’s because of the new federal mandate by the EPA for every US city to upgrade their inventory of lead service lines by October 24, 2024 later this year. It’s reasonable to assume that when Tulsa and all these other US cities upgrade millions of water meters to meet these new guidelines, a company like Badger Meter would stand to benefit, and in turn, those shares that he bought. I wish I could say that this was an isolated incident, but I see stuff like this happen all the time.”

Revelation 14:14-19

14Then I looked, and lo, a white cloud, and seated on the cloud one like a son of man, with a golden crown on his head, and a sharp sickle in his hand. 15And another angel came out of the temple, calling with a loud voice to him who sat upon the cloud, “Put in your sickle, and reap, for the hour to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is fully ripe.” 16So he who sat upon the cloud swung his sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped. 17And another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle. 18Then another angel came out from the altar, the angel who has power over fire, and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, “Put in your sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for its grapes are ripe.” 19So the angel swung his sickle on the earth and gathered the vintage of the earth, and threw it into the great wine press of the wrath of God;

Matthew 16:24-27

24Then Jesus told his disciples, “If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25For whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give in return for his life? 27For the Son of man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay every man for what he has done.

A lot of shit. We are still in the calm. Get your shit together. The hell storm is on its way. We have to survive it to make it to the end. These reports and comms I release are just public confirmation for me to talk about certain things publicly. The end is not for everyone. So, whatever your belief system is. Hold on to it. None of my pill and intel drops have changed. The information contained therein is static. All truths are necessarily good truths. But it’s nevertheless the truth. You can take the blue pill and ignore some of it. But the red pill will always be there. Mental health is real and not a joke. When all truths are revealed, getting close to the end, some will not be able to bear it. It’s best now that you soften the blow. Get your houses in order, stocks, preps, and finances together to ride this next phase out. Take this time now to learn, and I mean unlearn, then relearn everything. Because you won’t have time when the storm comes. Why? You’ll be too busy focusing on surviving.

NATO was created in 1949 to stand up to the Soviet Union. If the West would just make peace with Russia, which Putin is willing to do, then there would be zero need for NATO. The only people who don’t want this, are NATO weapons manufacturers, and their bought politicians. NATO exists solely to enrich itself. Their business model is war, and our tax dollars are their life source. The best solution for humanity is to disband NATO, for Trump to make peace with Russia/China, then build a multipolar world, in which every country has a fair say. The days of the US/NATO waging war without consequence, must come to an end. Russia and China just want a seat at the table, and want the West to stop waging wars all over the globe for financial and geopolitical gain. They just want us to stop building our military bases around their civilizations. Peace is possible with diplomacy.

I want everyone to know who reads this, Barry McCaffrey is highly respected in the leftist neo-con warmongering mafia inside of the beltway’s military industrial complex who love perpetual war. His post shows the insanity we deal with when it comes to advice by certain elements of retired military officers. Nuclear war and nuclear attacks are not something we want on the table at all. The proactive offensive capabilities launched recently by the Ukraine are sheer madness. Instead of demanding peace and standing up for sanity, McCaffrey is stating the obvious for a nuclear counter strike as if this is going to solve the problems we face. God help us all and I pray that no one, and I mean absolutely no one, pays any attention to this too long in the tooth retired military officer. We have to cease and desist these missile attacks. WTH are they achieving? What are our goals and objectives? WTH are we doing? No one from this current administration has answered any of these questions. Congress, and @SpeakerJohnson please step in and stop this insanity! January 20th can’t get here fast enough.

Revelation 3:1-6, 14-22

1“And to the angel of the church in Sardis write: `The words of him who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. “`I know your works; you have the name of being alive, and you are dead. 2Awake, and strengthen what remains and is on the point of death, for I have not found your works perfect in the sight of my God. 3Remember then what you received and heard; keep that, and repent. If you will not awake, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come upon you. 4Yet you have still a few names in Sardis, people who have not soiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy. 5He who conquers shall be clad thus in white garments, and I will not blot his name out of the book of life; I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels. 6He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’ 

[ 7 And to the angel of the church of Philadelphia, write: These things saith the Holy One and the true one, he that hath the key of David; he that openeth, and no man shutteth; shutteth, and no man openeth:  8 I know thy works. Behold, I have given before thee a door opened, which no man can shut: because thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.  9 Behold, I will bring of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie. Behold, I will make them to come and adore before thy feet. And they shall know that I have loved thee.  10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I will also keep thee from the hour of the temptation, which shall come upon the whole world to try them that dwell upon the earth.

 11 Behold, I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.  12 He that shall overcome, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God; and he shall go out no more; and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God, and my new name.  13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.]

14“And to the angel of the church in La-odice’a write: `The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God’s creation. 15“`I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot! 16So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth. 17For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing; not knowing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. 18Therefore I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may be rich, and white garments to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nakedness from being seen, and salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see. 19Those whom I love, I reprove and chasten; so be zealous and repent. 20Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. 21He who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I myself conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. 22He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'”

In the 1960s, John and Robert Kennedy formed an unofficial advisory council called EXComM (Executive Committee of the National Security Council,) which was put together to keep peacemaking efforts siloed from the Joint Chiefs and the Intel Agencies. Unused to being kept in the dark, these administrative vultures colloquially referred to this cadre of Kennedys and childhood friends from the Boston area (including Kenneth O’Donnell,) as the ‘Irish Mafia.’ By going around the Military Industrial Complex and the news media, these men established backchannels to Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev in order to avoid the war the ‘invisible enemy’ in both nations were salivating over. As tensions rose, Robert famously said, “can the fu*king chiefs” as tempers flared over the war for peace. Reconcile this with Trump’s current appointments. It may not be ‘Irish,’ but we’ve got a new American Mafia forming. “We went around them like nobody’s gone around them before.” Deep State most affected.

Psalms 15:2-5

2He who walks blamelessly, and does what is right, and speaks truth from his heart; 3who does not slander with his tongue, and does no evil to his friend, nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor; 4in whose eyes a reprobate is despised, but who honors those who fear the LORD; who swears to his own hurt and does not change; 5who does not put out his money at interest, and does not take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

Luke 19:1-10

1He entered Jericho and was passing through. 2And there was a man named Zacchae’us; he was a chief tax collector, and rich. 3And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not, on account of the crowd, because he was small of stature. 4So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way. 5And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchae’us, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today.” 6So he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully. 7And when they saw it they all murmured, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” 8And Zacchae’us stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold.” 9And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. 10For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost.”

OK let’s deal with this. The biggest ‘elephant in the room’ open secret in Washington DC. The money laundering. Let’s deal with it. No, they don’t actually SPEND all 4.5 million dollars to spray alcoholic rats with bobcat urine. I doubt they spent as much as $100,000 on it. What they are doing is what they have been doing for decades: stealing your tax money and laundering it. People who’ve been studying and researching how the money laundering game works internationally have known all along the USG does not actually spend $2500 on a hammer or $1 million on a box of parts. Look, as they steal the money and send it out to be laundered, they got write SOMETHING down, OK? About where it went, what it was used for, right? Here’s the brutal truth: you’ll never grasp exactly HOW MUCH they’ve been stealing until you realize about 75% of ‘foreign aid’ PLUS all of these weirdly expensive ‘studies’ are money-laundering fronts. Nobody audits the foreign aid, something the Ukraine madness has highlighted for the past 3 years. What Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are being brought in to do is to primarily REMOVE THE COVER for the money laundering operations that have been ongoing for more than a century. The Biggest Lie they ever told you was that they 6 trillion a year or whatever it is to fund this USG. That’s never been true. What they’ve been doing is stealing around 5 trillion/year. And you need an awful lot of laundering to cover up that kind of trail. Heads should be on a swivel because the last time a real initiative was undertaken to audit the Pentagon, it was suddenly ‘discovered’ that $2 trillion of taxpayer’s money was ‘unaccounted for’ and an investigation had been launched to try to discover where the missing money went. Then-Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld came out to announce the missing $2 trillion and the launch of the investigation on….September 10, 2001. Guess what happened next?

There needs to be an immediate hiring freeze inside the USG. There are reports from good people inside the government, much as

@obama hired approx 2500 personnel to subvert the 2017

@realDonaldTrump transition and presidency, the current administration is doing the same thing. This CANNOT be allowed. If no hiring freeze, then all new hires should be put on notice, their jobs should be terminated on Inauguration Day. The subversion ongoing inside of this administration is outrageous and must cease.

TMZ Founder: Hollywood Is In a State of PANIC Over Diddy Sex Crime Scandal

“Every celebrity in the world seems to have gone to one of these white parties. Everybody wanted to go. And if you got an invitation, you went. So you can pretty much count every high profile [celebrity] has been to one of these parties.”

Harvey Levin went on to explain that Hollywood can get very loud very quickly when it wants to. But oddly, they are utterly silent on the Diddy allegations.

Harvey Levin explained that numerous videos reportedly kept by Diddy over the years have now been seized by federal authorities and are being shared with civil lawyers.

This has caused widespread panic in Hollywood, as people are questioning whether they might appear in the footage or be implicated in past events.

“I think there’s a lot of panic, and that’s what we’re hearing. And people just don’t want the association, and they don’t want to talk about it. I think it’s that simple,” Levin said.

I have stopped creating AI images. First of all, it isn’t art. Secondly, a few days ago I went to create an image of a girl by a waterfall and was terrified when a girl by a waterfall had a black cloaked demonic figure behind her as if it was going to choke her. I also note that most of the images created by others tend to be dark, bizarre, or sexualized. Not all, but the majority. I hoped to use it to bring some beautiful ideas to life, but ultimately, after the demonic image manifested in front of me, I could not justify utilizing it anymore. Beware.

Regardless of how anyone feels about Trump’s picks, let’s isolate what we know: -The enemy is terrified -Elon is bullish on justice Based on the reactions from the Left, Trump appears to have touched some nerves with his appointees. Great sign. Elon is excited about it, and he is incontrovertibly one of the smartest living beings on Earth. He seems to be all-in on the situation and he has been in Trump’s ear the entire time. I trust his judgement and his vision. If Elon is excited, that’s a great sign. The country is in good hands. Also, Trump and Congress just proved that us bitching about who we want on the Internet, solved absolutely NOTHING and changed zero minds. Trump still picked Rubio for SOS, and the Senate did not pick Scott for SML. We may have influence, but not raw power. My point is, that it’s out of our hands now. We generated enough votes and hired Trump to get the job done. Now all we can do is see if he and his team can produce results. If they do, awesome. If they don’t, well then we are right back where we started, but at least there will be less LGBTQ flags flying around, cheaper gas, and it’s infinitely better than Kamala. Ultimately my message is … relax. Let it unfold. Focus on what we can control, which is replacing the failed corporate media, and waking up normies. The rest is in Trump’s hands now.

20Being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, he answered them, “The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed; 21nor will they say, `Lo, here it is!’ or `There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.” 22And he said to the disciples, “The days are coming when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and you will not see it. 23And they will say to you, `Lo, there!’ or `Lo, here!’ Do not go, do not follow them. 24For as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of man be in his day. 25But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

Important… Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: “The thing that people have to understand is that the four companies that make all 72 of those vaccines, which is Pfizer, Glaxo, Merck and Sanofi. All of those companies are convicted felons. And not only that, they’re serial felons. Their business model is committing felonies.” “These companies in the last 10 years collectively, have paid $35 billion in penalties, damages, fines for falsifying science, for defrauding regulators, lying to doctors, and for killing hundreds of thousands of people. Vioxx, which was Merck’s flagship product, killed between 120,000 and 500,000 Americans. This was a pill. And Merck was selling as a headache pill.” “And Merck knew, caused heart attacks and killed people. And they didn’t tell anybody. And they knew a certain, you know, we got the spreadsheets that showed there being counters, their accountants. And this is, you’re gonna kill so many people per dose. We can still make more money, even if they all sue us. And in the end, they killed, you know, up to half a million Americans. And they got away with it.” “They paid $7 billion in fines. Nobody went to jail. And this is, you know. They probably made $100 million in profits. Yeah. So this is a company, these, it requires kind of a cognitive dissonance to believe that these companies that are lying and cheating on every other pharmaceutical product, every other medical device that they create, are somehow found Jesus vaccines and aren’t lying to us.” “And the thing is with vaccines, vaccines are the only place they could never get caught because it’s illegal in this country to sue a vaccine company. So Congress passed a law in 1986 that said no matter how negligent that company is, no matter how malicious they are, no matter how toxic the product, you no matter how grievous or injury you cannot sue them.”

WOAH, This is a man still on the ground in Western North Carolina after Hurricane Helene. He’s talking to victims and they’re having their land purchased out from under them for $2,500 He says it’s definitely a land grab for the lithium and quartz mining “Buying the land wholesale everywhere. Not just Chimney Rock, not just Spruce Pine, not just where the mine is going to be. They’re buying up in Burnsville, they’re buying up in Waynesville, everywhere where somebody lost their entire home, the government is confiscating the land and giving them a $2,500 check.” “It’s a state-wide land grab. And then the news, the local news just reported that Governor Roy, good old Democrat, Governor Roy, decided that they were going to buy up whole communities that were devastated.” This video is full of some of the most insane first hand information I’ve heard about what’s going on in North Carolina. There is so much talked about, if all this is true, it’s the crime of the century
