“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
I still can’t shake this bizarre feeling about Biden’s closing pitch ahead of the midterms. He said there’s going to be election deniers and that you must accept the results. Why would a President say this about a midterm that by all accounts he’s about to get crushed in? Weird.
When you’re looking for someone or thing to “blame” for the state of our nation- one could easily begin with that tricky little adage “live & let live”. A society devoid of standards is bound for desolation.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
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.”
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray.

Strain Bloody Mary into the prepared glass and garnish with celery stalk and olives.
Okay, y’all, here we go, and don’t forget the legacy media is going to try to spin the delays in counting as some sort of non-victory. Page one of Thursday’s daily is full of such examples. Please, don’t fall for it.
Folks, relax. We’ve seen enough, and we’ve seen this exact playbook before.
The delayed “official results” from Colorado, Arizona and Nevada are all part of the organized narrative engineering from SoS offices, party officials (local and state) and corporate media. It’s transparent now.
There was key “target races”, not defined for political outcomes per se’ but rather …. they were identified for official media targeting; for script writing and narrative engineering; under the guise of being identified as “key races” to sense, gauge and create a storyline for election distribution by corporate media.
In the big picture the goal was to undermine and deflate the MAGA base represented by President Donald Trump. 2022 midterm MAGA wins downplayed and or delayed. 2022 MAGA losses overemphasized, highlighted and promoted as part of the script. That’s what we are seeing now. That’s all we are seeing now.
Citizen Free Press’s headline was that the vote total for MAGA in 2022 was higher than the TEA Party wave. The electorate is engaged. That is a good thing.
Because if we were told the truth, there would be no public support let alone yard signs that say, “I stand with Ukraine.” As it is, we pray for the war to be stopped every Sunday at the one parish where I sing.
Jeff Miller is not a household name, but he stands to yield tremendous influence when the next Congress gets sworn into office.
That’s because no one on K Street is as close to Rep. Kevin McCarthy as Miller.
“A lot of people like to think that they’re close to Kevin,” said a former McCarthy aide. “There are very few people who actually talk to him about stuff or that he reaches out to proactively on stuff … Obviously, Jeff is a very key and central figure of that group.”
Russ Vought, who was the Director of The Office of Management and Budget under Trump, explained that Kevin McCarthy “is in serious trouble” in his race for Speaker of The House.
Kevin McCarthy is in serious trouble as a candidate for Speaker. Let me explain. 🧵 1/x
It starts with the fundamentals. The vote for Speaker is not behind closed doors. It is on the floor of the House of Representatives. There is no lying back home about how one voted. And all Dems vote against the GOP nominee, always. 2x

4I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children following the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father. 5And now I beg you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another. 6And this is love, that we follow his commandments; this is the commandment, as you have heard from the beginning, that you follow love. 7For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8Look to yourselves, that you may not lose what you have worked for, but may win a full reward. 9Any one who goes ahead and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God; he who abides in the doctrine has both the Father and the Son.
SATIRE!
This one stands alone for all Americans who have watched entirely too much daytime television.
What happened yesterday? What happened in the grip of an intractable surveillance and police state cabal that has full spectrum dominance over every institution we have? From Academia, The Media, Big Tech, Hollywood, Wall Street, the Fed, Congress, The White House and the entire Administrative State?
We punched them in the face yesterday at the ballot box so hard that, despite the MSM happy dance football spike, we have at this moment NOT LOST THE COUNTRY and are poised to win full control of Congress.
President Trump had an incredible day yesterday. He endorsed 183 candidates. ONLY 9 did not go his way!
This is NOT OVER. It’s just beginning. Now more than ever it’s time to focus and have steely resolve…not crawl up in the fetal position.
All the odds have been stacked against us. But we are prevailing and those responsible for what they’ve done to our beautiful country will be held accountable.
It’s always useful for conservatives to watch the legacy networks, starting with PBS, to fully appreciate the level of bias that pervades their “news” organizations. While watching them all the time might quickly become intolerable, return periodically to be reminded: The political content on these networks serve the interests of the Democratic Party.
These days, and for at least the past year, PBS anchor Judy Woodruff, along with every PBS reporter, repeats the term “election denier” dozens of times during every daily news broadcast. They repeat it without irony, without hesitation or qualification. It doesn’t matter what level of skepticism someone may have about the 2020 election. Skepticism in and of itself makes one a “denier.” One can have well founded, incrementalist concerns about election integrity, or one can believe every allegation ever made about systemic election fraud, but there’s no room for such a continuum. According to PBS, all these folks are “election deniers.”
stealing not just an election, but the society that underpins it is a tradition as old as democracy. many civilizations at many times have done it many different ways: some by stealth, some by blatant grabs, and many with the idea that if their treason doth prosper, none shall dare name it treason.
but to really do a good job of it, you have to start planning ahead and laying groundwork in advance.
of course, you need to be sure that exactly who is voting, for whom, and how many times is basically impossible to determine by moving to dodgy closed source voting methods and mail in ballots that can be added at will, ballot stuffed, and generally mishandled. this is just 101 stuff.
I know that the months ahead will make for some spirited political debate among friends, but I encourage you to cement in your minds this quintessential image of Trump unbroken and unbowed. Whatever else can be said about the man (and there is plenty), he remains the only leader in our times unafraid to stand alone. When other self-proclaimed allies run the other way or look for somewhere safe to weather the approaching storm, Trump stands inside the tempest, demanding that it give up and surrender. That’s something that will forever separate him from those who pretend to be him.
It has become normal to deconstruct Trump’s public appeal to something as basic as he fights! Yet it is not just that Trump fights; it is why he fights that has attracted such a diverse voting coalition unlike any other political movement today.
In September 2009 the TEA Party scared the bejezus out of the establishment. That morphed into MAGA. They’re still trying to stop us.
Newsflash: Having vote tabulators in 20% of your facilities malfunction, and machines that mistabulate 1 in 5 ballots is an ACTUAL threat to democracy. #arizona#Midterms2022#ElectionDay
I know that in California & Maryland they wanted bills where an infant could be killed up to 28 days after birth. I think Calif. passed it, not exactly sure. Maryland shelved it, at least for a while.
I can’t believe how brainwashed some of you are. Really. It’s astoundingly grievous. You’re like your own form of spiritual, sociological, political AIDS.
If we use strictly paper ballots, hand counted, and only cast on election day (which could easily be a national holiday), there would be no need for machines, and no delays in results while the machines are "down."

Very dumb narrative being pushed that it's Trump's fault that we didn't have a red wave.
DeSantis had a historic performance in Florida because MAGA and the GOP establishment rallied behind him. In other areas the GOP establishment opposed the Republican if they were America 1st
This, according to Paul Ryan's FOX, not the people. Trump had the guts to make endorsements, and a majority of his candidates won. Abortion won it for the democrats, because @LindseyGrahamSC threw a stink bomb anti-abortion bill in the Senate.
McConnell needs to be fired! He supported candidates that stood for him instead of the people. The death cult democrats who support abortion got out their vote!
The Democrats are likely to take away the lesson that no matter how badly they govern us, they can hold power through early voting and "messaging." If that's how they act for the next two years, they will pay a heavy price.
Even though everyone now thinks DeSantis is the golden ticket nationally, he endorsed and campaigned for several candidates who lost. He did extremely well in Florida. That popularity didn’t translate into wins outside his state
The media is drawing a false contrast between DeSantis on one hand and Trump and #MAGA on the other. DeSantis rose with Trump’s backing by embracing MAGA. Both men have great strengths—and some obvious weaknesses—and both terrify the Left. They may be strongest working together!
I’ve got the 2016 feeling all over again. Being told by the smart set that Trump can’t win, is bad for the party, etc. I’m not sure what will happen between now and 24 but I know I won’t listen at all to the GOP smart set.

7For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you. 8Accordingly, though I am bold enough in Christ to command you to do what is required, 9yet for love’s sake I prefer to appeal to you — I, Paul, an ambassador and now a prisoner also for Christ Jesus — 10I appeal to you for my child, Ones’imus, whose father I have become in my imprisonment. 11(Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful to you and to me.) 12I am sending him back to you, sending my very heart. 13I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel; 14but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own free will. 15Perhaps this is why he was parted from you for a while, that you might have him back for ever, 16no longer as a slave but more than a slave, as a beloved brother, especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord. 17So if you consider me your partner, receive him as you would receive me. 18If he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, charge that to my account. 19I, Paul, write this with my own hand, I will repay it — to say nothing of your owing me even your own self. 20Yes, brother, I want some benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.
13The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers at their business. 15And making a whip of cords, he drove them all, with the sheep and oxen, out of the temple; and he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. 16And he told those who sold the pigeons, “Take these things away; you shall not make my Father’s house a house of trade.” 17His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for thy house will consume me.” 18The Jews then said to him, “What sign have you to show us for doing this?” 19Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20The Jews then said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?” 21But he spoke of the temple of his body. 22When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.

We are getting ready to experience a level of evil that will be hard to comprehend. Stay strong. Be prepared.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
Fears are growing throughout the nation’s capital as record numbers of voters are turning out to polling stations across the country in an effort to end democracy as we know it. Leaders of both parties have been conducting closed-door meetings to determine what should be done.
“In a nation built on democracy, we simply cannot afford to have this many people making their voices heard in a democratic fashion,” said one high-ranking member of Congress under the condition of anonymity. “If we let everyone in the country legally vote to choose the nation’s leadership, democracy itself may be lost forever. Democracy!”
In order to calm the intense waves of voter turnout, plans were being hatched and put into motion from coast to coast. While vote tabulating machines in Maricopa County, Arizona were being commanded to malfunction and voters in Michigan were being informed that they had already voted, other potential schemes were rumored to involve blaring Nickelback at polling locations and even unleashing hatchet-wielding badgers in major urban centers.
“We’ll do anything to make sure people stop exercising their right to vote,” another Congressional staffer said. “Just think — if record numbers of people were to actually vote, our entire democratic process would collapse in on itself. Things might actually change, and we can’t have that!”
Donald John Trump wasn’t just our MAGA candidate in 2015, he was our murder weapon and the professional GOPe elite, the party system within the Republican club, was our intended victim.
The 2016 Republican club counter-offensive to a reenergized movement now carrying the MAGA banner, was led by the ‘Never Trumpers’. Most of you will easily remember how the professional political class, the Jeb Bush wing within the Republican club, responded. However, this time in 2016 we had the previous experience, the lessons and a map of their playbook in hand.
The MAGA movement knew what the GOPe club were trying to do, and we defeated them because our candidate was big, snarky, strong and impervious to the professional Republican club throwing everything including the kitchen sink at him. We The People were not going to retreat. We held the line, moved forward and won. However, our 2016 victory made the Republican inside club even more furious.
Billionaire Citadel Investment hedge fund CEO Ken Griffin (pictured above, center) is one of the top purchasers of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for a 2024 presidential bid. In a recent article for Politico, Mr. Griffin openly explains what he expects from his investment in DeSantis:
WASHINGTON DC – […] He has given nearly $60 million to federal Republican candidates and campaigns this election cycle. That puts Griffin behind just liberal billionaire George Soros, who’s given more than $128 million to Democrats, and Richard Uihlein, who aligns himself with far-right candidates and organizations, at about $62 million.
[…] While he’s supporting one of this cycle’s biggest culture warriors in DeSantis, Griffin said most hot-button issues — abortion rights, battles over sex education and LGBTQ rights — don’t define his interests. He wants to improve the diversity of the GOP and blunt the vein of populism that has complicated the party’s relationship with the corporate world — two things he’s consulted with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy about. (read more)
(1) Stop the populist movement and (2) get the republican party back in alignment with the multinational “corporate world.”
I’ll tell everyone what it was right now, though it’s not the smartest fight for REPs to have before a midterm.
When Ron DeSantis is chatting with @kevinomccarthy and Team Paul Ryan behind the back of the man who made him the governor of Florida, it was bound to happen.
— Rich Baris The People's Pundit (@Peoples_Pundit) November 6, 2022
It’s called a shot across the bow and it’s in response to what Trump has been hearing is going on behind his back, which more than a half of dozen donors and scores of sitting congressman have told me is true.
They’ve targeted Ron DeSantis as the stool they believe is their best chance to foil another Trump Presidency and after enough hammering away at him and blowing up his head, there are indications that it is working.
But make no mistake, it is a DC establishment plan and is true.
I’ve received at least a half dozen calls from GOP donors who have told me the contents of their conversations AND sitting members of Congress have confirmed it.
@GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy and Paul Ryan have hatched a plan to defeat MAGA in 2024 and Ron DeSantis is the stool.
Sorry if that hurts some of your feelings, but it’s true and those of you most likely to bitch about me saying it don’t know what the Hell you’re talking about.
If DeSantis doesn’t bite, though he has been more lately, their next target is @GlennYoungkin.
Shall I continue?
Point being, for those of us who know, it was not at all surprising to hear that. Sure, it plays into their hands, but that’s Trump folks. That’s his way to say, “I know what you’re doing, I’ve heard all about it.”
“Andrew Gillum would be governor of Florida if not for me.”
The reactions to this thread are exactly why Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell are in love with this idea.
Folks, I don’t really care for whom you vote. But don’t delude yourselves into pretending it isn’t #NeverTrump behind the push for Ron DeSantis to fracture the party in a primary if and when Trump obviously runs.
It most definitely is them to include McCarthy and McConnell.
And both things can be true. It absolutely could’ve waited for Wednesday.
But come on, everyone should know by now, that’s Trump.
Accountable Tech is financed by The North Fund, a D.C. nonprofit that is controlled by Arabella Advisors. Yes, there are multiple levels of confusion and separation, and this is on purpose. But the relevant outfit here is Arabella Advisors.
“Arabella” is a for-profit “philanthropic consulting company” founded by Clinton confidant Eric Kessler. Therefore, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Jesse Lehrich, another Clinton network operative, is a co-founder of Accountable Tech. The organization also employs former Clinton campaign operative Zach Praiss as its digital director.
What’s the root cause of the US proxy war in Ukraine? Most people don’t have a clue. Let me explain.
It all started after the 2007-2008 financial crisis that originated in the US. The reliability of the US Govt as a partner in global financial affairs was destroyed.
In 2009 Russia hosted the first BRICS summit to establish a better international financial system with China, India, Brazil, South Africa and later with future BRICS+ partners. In short a new “multipolar order”. BRICS is challenging the US Dollar reserve currency status.
That started a new Cold War with Russia and China. US National Debt is now at $31 trillion, total US Debt is at $92 trillion and total US unfunded liabilities are at $172 trillion and all of that without any US Govt surplus to pay for any of it. Only more Debt and money printing.
The US Govt knows that without the reserve currency status it is bankrupt. Without money printing on the backs of other nations it’s simply Game Over for the US. But not just for the US. The EU and most western democracies followed the US model of endless Debt and money printing.
That’s why they stand with the US and support the escalating actions that seem totally illogical to most people. Why is the EU sacrificing prosperity for a US proxy war in Ukraine? Because if the US is collapsing they collapse too. Their alliance is glued by the fear of failure.
Solid German business sources completely contradict the “message” delivered by the German Council on Foreign Relations on the trip to China. According to these sources, the Scholz caravan went to Beijing to essentially lay down the preparatory steps for working out a peace deal with Russia, with China as privileged messenger.
This is – literally – as explosive, geopolitically and geoeconomically, as it gets. As I pointed out in one of my previous columns, Berlin and Moscow were keeping a secret communication back channel – via business interlocutors – right to the minute the usual suspects, in desperation, decided to blow up the Nord Streams.
Cue to the now-notorious SMS from Liz Truss’s iPhone to Tony Blinken, one minute after the explosions: “It’s done.”
There’s more: the Scholz caravan may be trying to start a long and convoluted process of eventually replacing the US with China as a key ally. One should never forget that the top BRI trade/connectivity terminal in the EU is Germany (the Ruhr valley).
According to one of the sources, “if this effort is successful, then Germany, China and Russia can ally themselves together and drive the US out of Europe.”
Yes. Women who are unlikable or distinctly unlikable because they are women and because of the women’s unique characteristics. You can call it sexist. We’re going to call her ex governor. https://t.co/HFoBd2YVZW

The statistical odds that (mostly the same) people responsible for mask mandates, vaccine mandates, lockdowns, school closings, destruction of domestic energy production, open borders and Afghanistan withdrawal, got everything wrong due to pure chance, are close to impossible.
Most interesting next week will be voter turnout. We were assured that unvaccinated Republicans would be dropping dead. If that’s the case (it’s not), then this week will prove or disprove that hypothesis. Keep track and get out the vote!
America, on Tuesday vote like your lives, your safety, your livelihoods and those of your children and grandchildren are in the line… BECAUSE THEY ALL ARE and it’s clear that democrats and their policies couldn’t care less. Vote out Democrat insanity. Vote in common sense!
Remember when you vote: Joe Biden and the Democratic Party want zero restrictions on abortions — abortions through all nine months of pregnancy, for any reason, tax-funded.
Just 2 years of total Democrat control has gotten us: – Runaway inflation – High gas prices – Soaring food and home heating costs – Violent crime gripping our cities – Out-of-control illegal immigration – Embarrassing foreign policy debacles
I’d throw in a few Rockefellers and Rothschilds also.
Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
1But as for you, teach what befits sound doctrine. 2Bid the older men be temperate, serious, sensible, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. 3Bid the older women likewise to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good, 4and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, 5to be sensible, chaste, domestic, kind, and submissive to their husbands, that the word of God may not be discredited. 6Likewise urge the younger men to control themselves. 7Show yourself in all respects a model of good deeds, and in your teaching show integrity, gravity, 8and sound speech that cannot be censured, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say of us. 11For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all men, 12training us to renounce irreligion and worldly passions, and to live sober, upright, and godly lives in this world, 13awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

“Voters have made their opinion clear by voting with their feet – voters are done with leeches who have lived off the public dime for years without effectively representing their constituencies, and will be selecting slightly different leeches!” Local newspapers have reported the shocking development across several states, noting early polls that showed the more-hated politicians in the lead were wrong, and that less-hated career politicians will indeed be taking the race.
“For real change, we need to get rid of this Harvard guy & replace him with a Yale guy,” said local man Dan Soniaster to reporters for a local newspaper. “The incumbent has just been languishing on the public monies as a comptroller, then alderman, then Mayor, then state assemblyman, then Congressional representative. The ‘dark horse’ candidate will upset the establishment – he has the same exact political appointments, but was an education commissioner rather than an alderman, and was never elected to state assemblyman. So it’s totally different.”
The backlash against Obama’s leftist policies brought us the unabashed patriot, Donald Trump. But by the time Trump was inaugurated, the cancer from Obama’s eight years in office had done its damage, and many in the federal government had become fully engaged members in the cult of progressivism. From the fiction that America has widespread “white supremacy,” to environmental extremism, to LBGTQXYZ fanaticism, to the open borders lockstep, leftism was now baked into much of the government ruling America.
Trump shocked the world and stepped into a Washington that more resembled a swamp of vipers than the seat of a functioning government. The leftist cabal—including a wide swath of those government workers—spent 4 years seeking to derail the plans of the duly elected president of the United States. This treachery culminated in November 2020 when the government colluded with the media and social media to execute a coup against the sitting president under the guise of “The most secure election in American history.”
And it is that coup with which Barack Obama achieved his greatest success in “transforming” the United States because it gave us Joe Biden.
The suggestion printed by the WEF-loving, pro-war lefties at The Atlantic is that they and their global team of unscientific lemming-like nanny-state bullies – just possibly – were a bit misinformed (not their fault) in 2020/21 regarding masking, untested genetic injections, and actual death rates, etc (not their fault). This bully squad accepted without question the lies their government told them (not their fault). They not only eagerly, but radically and angrily defended and promoted those lies (partly their fault).
They hope we understand that it wasn’t entirely their fault, and that they are still smart and educated. They really just wanted to live and survive a flu-like disease with a death rate comparable to any other bad flu – and their nagging and incoherent jammering and name-calling was just so we also wouldn’t die – unless we refused the experimental free required shot and continued to live our lives and try and keep our businesses open, then if we died it was kind of funny to them.
Their excuse was fear, but in reality it was not fear at all, and nor was it hate although it looked like it. It was contempt from Day One. Leftover contempt from the Trump era, pumped up and recirculated via a government over-response to a disease that now we understand to have been created via gain of function in a government lab by American scientists, including several who had close personal and professional relationships with Fauci. It was individual contempt, political contempt, and institutional contempt for the masses as demonstrated by the Gates Foundation and its compadres, the Democratic Party, and numerous government aligned institutions and industries.
The Times piece attacked the work of Frank Mitloehner, a researcher and animal scientist at the University of California, Davis, who heads the university’s Clarity and Leadership for Environmental Awareness and Research (CLEAR) Center. The Times‘s Hiroko Tabuchi reported that the CLEAR Center, which hosts Mitloehner’s blog and supports his research, is funded in part by a group called IFEEDER (Institute for Feed Education and Research), a nonprofit associated with the American Feed Industry Association. The implication, never stated, is that Mitloehner’s scholarship is compromised by the center’s industry donors.
Mitloehner is a regular critic of activist scholarship that seeks to tear down the American agricultural industry. Instead of trying to end cattle ranching and replace it with cricket farming, he works with farmers to change their feeding practices and lower their carbon footprint. He is a proponent of reform, not revolution.
“People want us to go on record that animal agriculture should fade away or be significantly reduced, but that’s not our charge or our place,” Mitloehner said on his blog. “Our mission is simply to reduce animal agriculture’s impact on our climate and environment, and to do that, we must work with the people who are raising the food that feeds us all.”
In one of the most egregious cases of voter fraud, a family member or someone else cast a ballot in this deceased person’s name and notified the county that they were deceased on their signature card.
National Security isn’t license to gaslight & ruin the lives of ordinary folks who aren’t participating in IC games. It’s cruel, abusive & totally UnAmerican. Come up with better cover if you need it. But between bioweapons/UAP gaslighting, you’re playing god. And you’re not him.

3For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him. 4For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function, 5so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. 6Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; 7if service, in our serving; he who teaches, in his teaching; 8he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who contributes, in liberality; he who gives aid, with zeal; he who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness. 9Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; 10love one another with brotherly affection; outdo one another in showing honor. 11Never flag in zeal, be aglow with the Spirit, serve the Lord. 12Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. 13Contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality.
WASHINGTON, DC — As the date of next week’s midterm elections approaches, President Joe Biden used his Wednesday night address to warn everyone that the results may not immediately be known because it may take several days for enough Democrat votes to be harvested and double-counted.
“Despite the fact that third-world countries around the globe are capable of tallying their votes on the same day as their elections, it’s simply not realistic to expect that from the world’s most technologically advanced nation,” Biden shouted with an unnecessary amount of anger to the assembled crowd made up entirely of White House staffers and the media. “Folks, we’ve got to take our time, find out how far behind we are, and wait for the unmarked vans carrying bags full of ballots to arrive in the middle of the night. Then we gotta find out how many times we have to count each ballot. Tomato soup.”
Just for simplicity, this is a catch-all rally thread for the next few days. It just makes more sense to have one thread, and for us to just add to it as the days go on.
As the days go by, I’ll add live feeds and update the thread.
Dayton, Ohio When: Monday, November 7, 2022 Time: Trump speaks at 8 pm ET Where: Wright Bros. Aero, Inc. in Vandalia, OH
With the midterms quickly approaching, former President Donald Trump is in Sioux City to give a speech tonight.
The former president will speak at what’s being called the “Save America Rally” at Sioux Gateway Airport. The gates opened at 2 p.m. with speeches starting at 4 p.m. from other Republicans.
Some of those Republicans are running for re-election next week. Gov. Kim Reynolds and Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley will be among those taking the stage.
Over the past four years, President Donald Trump’s administration delivered for Americans of all backgrounds like never before. Save America is about building on those accomplishments, supporting the brave conservatives who will define the future of the America First Movement, the future of our party, and the future of our beloved country. Save America is also about ensuring that we always keep America First, in our foreign and domestic policy. We take pride in our country, we teach the truth about our history, we celebrate our rich heritage and national traditions, and of course, we respect our great American Flag.
We are committed to defending innocent life and to upholding the Judeo-Christian values of our founding.
We believe in the promise of the Declaration of Independence, that we are all made EQUAL by our Creator, and that must all be TREATED equal under the law.
We know that our rights do not come from government, they come from God, and no earthly force can ever take those rights away. That includes the right to religious liberty and the right to Keep and Bear Arms.
We believe in rebuilding our previously depleted military and ending the endless wars our failed politicians of the past got us into for decades.
We embrace free thought, we welcome robust debate, and we are not afraid to stand up to the oppressive dictates of political correctness.
We know that the rule of law is the ultimate safeguard of our freedoms, and we affirm that the Constitution means exactly what it says AS WRITTEN.
We support fair trade, low taxes, and fewer job-killing regulations, and we know that America must always have the most powerful military on the face of the Earth.
We believe in Law and Order, and we believe that the men and women of law enforcement are HEROES who deserve our absolute support.
We believe in FREE SPEECH and Fair Elections. We must ensure fair, honest, transparent, and secure elections going forward – where every LEGAL VOTE counts.
Rant time. Are we MAGA normies or are we digital soldiers? MAGA normies would be perfectly fine with “winning” an election, or gas prices going back to 2$.
We are not like them. Why? Because we have been unplugged. We have seen the light at the end of the tunnel. Normies don’t see the light, they only grasp to live by the next wins and loses. We have seen the future. This separates us entirely.
Part of the separation also lies within understanding that this is all much bigger than just us.
We aren’t just fighting to get temporary wins. We are fighting for the world to be Changed! Change is hard. Change requires a leap of faith.
Every single one of us are making a leap of faith by putting our heart into the transformation of the world. So let’s make a decision right now, do we want to just go back to the way things were, or do we want the world to be transformed?
This is where we’re at. Will you hold the line when things are uncomfortable? Will you stand your ground in adversity?
I don’t remember the Q post that says this will be comfortable and easy.. I do know that Q says “it’s going to be Biblical.” Why?
Not only because prophecy connects to current events, more so the story of Moses. The people had to leave bondage. The people faced major challenges on their way to the promised land.
Can’t you see the promised land? A world without the Cabal… We don’t even know what life really looks like.. they have created a vision of desolation imprinted on all of our eyes.
Guys.. frens.. the world is in a metamorphosis. We are standing at the doorway to the paradigm of the ages. God has Destined this moment. He is putting on a spectacular display for all to see.
Can you believe that this moment right now is the true beginning to your life? Can you be so optimistic that you see the glorious plans The Lord has for your life and the world?
If the world is changing then let’s join in the process, all will be swept up in the winds of change anyway! We become free.
I refuse to look back. I will peak into the mysterious birth of an Era. I am making a simple choice. I will not let the war get any leverage on me.
I am a son of God and all forces against me will be my Bread, including negativity. I will stand in authority over Darkness.
God Wins. White Hats are in control. We are warriors. We do NOT live in the frequency of fear. We are NOT victims. We are blessed. We are honored in Heaven. God is proud of us. The plan is going Perfectly.
Loaded ships are still waiting off the coast of California because there aren’t enough trucks that meet the state’s emission standards to unload them — and it’s going to get worse in 2023, when more rules kick in. The ports are choked with cargo containers while perishables spoil and store shelves run empty. It’s a government-created problem. What is the government’s solution? Mandate that port employees work overtime loading the trucks that aren’t there. It’s government problem-solving 101.
The airline industry is plagued with cancelations and late flights. And it’s not because of climate change (bad weather) or mechanical failures. It’s because they don’t have enough pilots. When we tried to control a virus by closing the country, pilots retired, others refused to comply with the vaccine mandate and were fired, and some unknown number took the vax and found they could no longer pass their physicals. But this time, Pete is on the case. He’s told the airlines that the Department of Transportation will fine them if they don’t hire more of the pilots that don’t exist. That should light a fire under their executive tails.
I have it on good authority it’s not just pilots in short supply. Lack of ground crew is part of it as well.
Despite the fact that a Pew Research poll finds that only 27% of Americans think Biden succeeded in Afghanistan while a whopping 69% see his abrupt deadly withdrawal as a failure, Biden, apparently eager to show his contempt for the American people again, called the withdrawal “an extraordinary success,” but it wasn’t any of his sons or daughters blown to bits at the airport. And the problems caused by arming the Taliban with the U.S.’s best military equipment will fall on future presidents, Afghan dissidents, the women and girls of Afghanistan, and the victims of future terror attacks. Congratulations, Joe!
Monday’s viral Atlantic piece—now subject to thousands of indignant tweets and TikToks and columns like this one—might be laughably outrageous, but it cannot be dismissed out of hand, for the Atlantic remains the mass middle-class, middlebrow magazine of choice in America; as a status symbol, it signals possession of a college degree, even suggesting a graduate school stint on top of it. It is Reader’s Digest for good liberals embarrassed by Reader’s Digest, a West Wing script on glossy paper. The people who do not deserve a pandemic amnesty read it.
Emily Oster is an economist at Brown University. She wrote her Atlantic essay to ask the other smart moms of the world permission to forgive herself for masking her kids. But the Atlantic published her little essay to obscure a critical point: experts should be held to a different standard than the rest of us. Some people are downstream from “the experts,” and during the Covid responses they did what they thought they were supposed to do, as best they could tell. Neurotic rule followers are annoying, but if there are any in your family you should forgive them; the relationship is more important than “I told you so,” and hopefully they can admit they were wrong, that they listened to the wrong sources.
Other people are “the experts” and, more importantly, “the authorities.” And when they are wrong they must admit it, and be held accountable. That is what makes them, in our modern democratic and scientific society, authoritative: accountability to the public record. The Atlantic’s amnesty essay blurs those two categories, for Oster is both a private citizen and a public expert admitting she got things wrong. But she can only represent, only speak for, the class of experts in general, not the public health experts who formulated our pandemic response or the authorities who implemented it. Her apology to herself, to her children, to her readers, is not theirs. In actually considering what the piece suggests, an amnesty for disaster, Oster and her personal record on the Covid response hardly matter.
The boss might like to click on the link above for the cover image. 😁
If a mentally ill intruder broke into Mar-a-Lago and struck Trump in the head with a hammer, not only would the Trump-deranged left barely contain their glee—for they’d deem it retribution, as they felt when Trump contracted Covid-19—they’d recruit the thug for Congress.
My uncle was taken from my aunt and admitted to the ICU for covid where he died alone on 12/31/20. He struggled for 10 days before receiving Remdesivir that finished him off. While she kissed his cold cheek the hospital was cut a check for $19k. I will NOT forgive or FORGET.

1Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him. 2And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man receives sinners and eats with them.” 3So he told them this parable: 4“What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? 5And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, `Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.’ 7Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance. 8“Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it? 9And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, `Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.’ 10Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
At this point in history, anyone who is claiming the U.S. Government is not directly coordinating with social media platforms to shape opinion and cull information adverse to their interests, is being intellectually dishonest. There is simply too much evidence of the intelligence apparatus, specifically the Dept of Homeland Security, being enmeshed with the platforms of Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google and Microsoft.
The DHS justifications for the relationship all involve claims of ‘national security’ and domestic terror threats. However, the simple and transparent motivations of the relationship are all political. The DHS terms of “disinformation, misinformation and malinformation” are simply excuses for the platforms to adhere to the demands of the government and censor or remove discussion that is against the interests of those in power. The truth of this is in the sunlight now.
That said, the relationship between the intelligence community and social media is one of mutual benefit. DHS gets to conduct surveillance and control permitted speech in the public square, and in return Big Tech gets assurances of their ability to continue monopolistic enterprise and simultaneously receive subsidies on operational costs. The legislative branch allows this synergy without oversight because the legislative branch is in alignment with the larger ‘national security’ ruse.
That’s long hand for the DHS and social media is Operation Mockingbird on steroids.
As we hurtle towards the day of reckoning, one of the most fascinating elements of this election season has been the utter destruction of nearly all Democrats who took to the debate stage, often by opponents who were considered intellectual lightweights, extremists, or sacrificial lambs by the media and the establishment. Heading towards Halloween, these were the true horror shows for the Democrats, no doubt leading to many of them waking up in the middle of the night in cold sweat and tremors.
There are a few key lessons that came out of those debates worth considering going forward.
Democrats are such a radical party at this point with such a horrible record that they cannot withstand the slightest bit of scrutiny by anyone who is not a sycophant.
DePat: and that goes for critiquing hairstyles as well. I thought it was more polite not to say anything.
So the whole question of “safety” is a girl thing. As I say: “women expect to be protected.” And women don’t just expect to be “safe” from physical violence, but from verbal violence. That’s why “safetyism” has become such an issue at the university. Of course, it has, because women are coming to dominate the administration of universities, and that means replacing the old culture of insult, of the free exchange of ideas, with the women’s culture of complaint, whenever some man’s colorful one-liner makes her feel unsafe.
By the way, when Gadde “cries” about Musk taking over Twitter, we sexists call it “women’s tears win.”
I too have ridiculed the GOP establishment and Conservatism, Inc. for their lack of “thumos” and have held up the fanaticism and competitiveness of the Democratic Left as qualities we on the Right should want to emulate. There are of course certain obvious reasons that we couldn’t get away with the Left’s bullying behavior, starting with how the woke leftist media would portray our bold actions. The Left is allowed and even encouraged to attack the headquarters of pro-life activists, and they can threaten the lives of judges whom they don’t like with impunity. Pro-life advocates by contrast will incur the wrath of the media and may even have the FBI come after them if they do anything as subversive as sing hymns in front of an abortion center.
While the Left continues to depict counterfactually the events at Charlottesville in August 2018 and the Capitol break-in on January 6, 2020, as attempted Nazi or fascist coups, the same media try to wipe from our consciousness anything that does not fit its narrative of “democracy” being threatened by a surging “white nationalist” presence. The black racist who ran over a crowd in Waukesha, Wisconsin last Christmas was allegedly a poor soul who had trouble controlling his vehicle; while the hundred or so riots, some of them paid for by Democrats, during the “Summer of Love” in 2020 are recast as understandable reactions to the racist death of George Floyd. No matter how the Right reacts to the other side, the media will denounce its action as a “threat to democracy.”
There is, however, another reason that I couldn’t imagine a serious American Right that successfully imitates its enemy’s behavior, except in a limited tactical way. Some of the Left’s actors are so peculiarly leftist that it is hard to see how our side could imitate them. What would be the right-wing equivalent of Kamala Harris, Maxine Waters, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Beto O’Rourke, or the “ladies” on “The View”? I couldn’t begin to imagine how we’d offer our own version of these whinging guilt-mongers or splenetic true believers.
It could just be that traditional Americans are too honest to pull off duplicity.
I don’t know how to put this gently to my fellow members of the blue-check media class, so I will say it bluntly. You guys resemble nothing so much as the info apparatus of some failing ideological state—late-Soviet apparatchiks, only without the erudition that was demanded of regime intellectuals in Moscow back in the day. Your conduct seems designed to stoke the very conspiracism you claim to despise in the public. It’s like you want to turn sensible Americans into muttering paranoiacs.
And no, apologizing roughly every two years that “mistakes were made” earlier doesn’t make it any better.
Skunk. Yeah, just say no. It’s one thing to relieve Parkinson’s symptoms, and get cancer patients to eat. There’s no good reason to say yes to this. And my state has it on the ballot.
Just watch the first thirteen minutes or so of Matt Walsh. I think he pretty much says it.
The corporate press is an extension of the Democrat Party. That’s why Biden smashing the all-time record for illegal immigration 2 years in a row gets dramatically less media coverage than a Gloria Allred press conference. https://t.co/d3PVAmscPD

That little jerk can kiss my ass. But I do think it’s pretty funny how the stupid Europeans listen to her and now they’re suffering. Their pain is an important lesson and they should be embarrassed and humiliated by their stupidity as they shiver. https://t.co/byuwnmZvIT
(I don’t remember who brought this to a daily in the comments, but thanks.)
And, of course, the obligatory George Carlin:
Per the Boss:
And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:
Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.
Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone
Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.
Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.
Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out, as well as the newest rescue venue.
Auntie DePat’s requests:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.
The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.
Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.
One other vital note:
Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.
1But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them. 2In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was thought to be an affliction, 3and their going from us to be their destruction; but they are at peace. 4For though in the sight of men they were punished, their hope is full of immortality. 5Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them and found them worthy of himself; 6like gold in the furnace he tried them, and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them. 7In the time of their visitation they will shine forth, and will run like sparks through the stubble. 8They will govern nations and rule over peoples, and the Lord will reign over them for ever. 9Those who trust in him will understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are upon his elect, and he watches over his holy ones.
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.
And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
We are getting ready to experience a level of evil that will be hard to comprehend. Stay strong. Be prepared.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
DHS gets domestic surveillance tools under the guise of ‘national security’. Meanwhile, massive social media companies get financial offsets for the extreme data processing costs associated with millions of simultaneous users. That’s the mutual benefit behind “Jack’s Magic Coffee Shop.” Previously people called it a ‘conspiracy theory‘, I didn’t care, still don’t, it just makes the most sense; Occam’s Razor applies.
Today, all that was almost certain is now brought forth with buckets of evidence showing how social media enterprises have direct portals to DHS to transmit information and receive instructions. It’s a public-private partnership, just like it always appeared. To quote succinctly, we been knew.
Now before getting all giddy and excited about the documents leaked to The Intercept, proving what CTH has outlined for years, allow me to temper the thirst for immediate I toldyaso’s, Slow your roll…
Remind yourself when everyone was giddy about getting to see for the first time in history a released ‘top secret’ Title-1 FISA application (Carter Page) and how everyone rushed to review and discuss it without asking the first question(s) first. We know these are bad actors, so why was it released and who released it?
New documents released to the public, pertaining to DHS secret relationships with social media companies, and the government’s hand in censorship of TRUTH, which altered the outcome of the 2020 election. See DHS/CISA documents here.
Turns out the “Disinformation Governance Board” was already going on before they told us about it. The US Intelligence Community were giving orders to social media companies on moderation. Instructing them what to label as “mis/disinformation”
He requested that logged out users visiting Twitter.com be redirected to the Explore page that shows trending tweets and news stories, according to employees familiar with the matter who requested anonymity to speak without the company’s permission. Before, visiting Twitter’s homepage while logged out showed only a sign-up form, encouraging the creation of an account to view tweets. Musk’s directive, which was implemented late Friday, required VP involvement to override a code freeze put in place to prevent rogue staffers from making changes during the takeover process.
Though Musk didn’t widely articulate a reason for the change, to the employees who observed it, the message was clear: no more sacred cows. Inside the old Twitter, such a decision would have been fought over between teams for weeks. But this was the new Twitter. As a former executive told me: “That’s definitely one way to make it clear you’re in charge now.”
I’ve written here before on “Why I’m a Climate Denier and You Should Be Too.” Global elites who peddle the claim that the earth’s climate is radically changing as the result of human carbon emissions are wielding biased, coerced, propaganda “science.”
You know, the way the same elites censored, blackballed, and tried to destroy dissenters from the manufactured COVID panic (including world class epidemiologists and doctors), in order to:
Crush small businesses.
Enrich conglomerates such as Amazon.
Shutter our churches.
Steal our medical privacy.
Make our elections insecure.
Massively enrich Big Pharma at zero legal risk. And
Force on all of us an untested, risky vaccine dependent on the abuse of aborted babies.
Remember that?
The COVID panic saw a Chinese bioweapon wielded as part of a massive power grab over the whole population of earth. That scam has run its course and achieved its goals. The test run for global tyranny was an overwhelming success, as our politicians and pastors mostly flipped over like beaten dogs and showed their bellies.
Poor Mika….
She just doesn’t get that the narrative had moved on days before.
Over the past few years, I have lost count as to how many Republicans, conservatives, independents and libertarians have told me that they have learned the art of self-censorship when it comes to discussing or even hinting at their political or faith-based views.
They went into self-censorship mode as a self-preservation response to the woke/cancel culture vigilantism many believe has swept into the corners of academia, corporate America and the mainstream media. As many now believe that identity politics and the search for any micro-aggression or misappropriation rule the day in these powerful, left-leaning institutions, they have decided that discretion is indeed the greater part of valor. They’ll make their views known only in the privacy of a voting booth.
For decades, we have all heard of the “silent majority” in American politics. Today, for incredibly practical reasons, it may have morphed into the “secret majority.”
Moral blackmail is Democrats’ bread and butter. But this time, it isn’t working. Their rhetoric has just become too preposterous: How is “democracy” threatened when the people peacefully choose new leaders? Democrats can’t say. Anyway, they’re the last people who should be giving lectures on democracy. As Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake boldly reminded us the other day, Democrats were “election deniers” long before they concocted the term as a childish libel against the Right.
What Democrats really fear is being held accountable for the miserable “new normal” they foisted on the country.
Conspiracy theories are dangerous & those promoting them must be silenced. Anyone involved in spreading the lies that Iraq had WMDs, that the Trump Campaign colluded with Russia, that covid came from nature, or that Hunter Biden’s laptop was fake, must have their accounts locked.
Hi @elonmusk, these are not just some questionable tweets, nor is it a political belief to call the Trump administration "ACTUAL NAZIS". At a minimum, this guy has a totally warped view of reality. What qualifies him to be Head of Safety & Integrity? Why are the tweets still up? https://t.co/WDRbfxs6xupic.twitter.com/u0lxVYIkJk
All the purists complaining about #Pelosigaylover trending are the same people who got gorilla network, two scoops and pee tape trending. Spare me your bs
Journalism is dead. Twenty years ago, every major publication would have had boots on the ground chasing the facts in the Paul Pelosi story – questioning the narrative, interviewing everyone even tangentially connected, demanding transparency and the release of calls and footage.
There’s multiple ways to look at this: unjust, yes, but exposing the courts, and the double standards…priceless. Here’s to hoping the judge gets disbarred.
It’s quite simple. None of the following should be tolerated under any circumstances: Masks Coerced vaccinations Lockdowns Men in women’s spaces Climate catastrophising Pronoun demands Paedophile reconciliation Open borders
I’d throw in a few Rockefellers and Rothschilds also.
Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.
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.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
2Then I saw another angel ascend from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea, 3saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God upon their foreheads.” 4And I heard the number of the sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand sealed, out of every tribe of the sons of Israel,
[5] Of the tribe of Juda, were twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Ruben, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand signed:
[6] Of the tribe of Aser, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Nephthali, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Manasses, twelve thousand signed: [7] Of the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand signed: [8] Of the tribe of Zabulon, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand signed.
9After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!” 11And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.” 13Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?” 14I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome. Via con Dios.
