Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:
litmus test
noun
A test for chemical acidity or basicity using litmus paper.
A test that uses a single indicator to prompt a decision.
A simple test for the acidity or alkalinity of a substance, using litmus paper.
Use in politics:
In politics, a litmus test is a question asked of a potential candidate for high office, the answer to which would determine whether the nominating official would proceed with the appointment or nomination. The expression is a metaphor based on the litmus test in chemistry, in which one is able to test the general acidity of a substance, but not its exact pH. Those who must approve a nominee may also be said to apply a litmus test to determine whether the nominee will receive their vote. In these contexts, the phrase comes up most often with respect to nominations to the judiciary.
Lichen source of litmus (one of many):

Recently, I got an excellent request from a member here, asking if I could forward their email address to one of the authors here, along with the nature of their question for the author, so that a private discussion could ensue.
On any normal blog, this might have happened – but not here – and there is a reason.
It turns out that – as far as I am aware, or can remember – I have NEVER given any of the email addresses of anybody here to anybody else.
I know that this gives people like cthulhu great joy and peace of mind.
I love being able to say that, too. Even if I did give out a single email with permission, I would then have to qualify my answer. I would have to say something like “I have NEVER given any of the email addresses of anybody here to anybody else, except one time with permission.”
YUCK! That just doesn’t sound as strong.
No authors or moderators (there are no mods) have access to these email addresses. Only me. Technically, our hosting company does as well, but they’re actually pretty good about privacy, so the only people besides me who have access to the email addresses are basically the intelligence community. And they’re going to hide their sources and methods.
So I’m just not going to do it. BUT – I have several great alternatives.
Use Private Message To Wolf (with underscores) on the Author’s Own Thread
The “Private Message To Wolf” function (a.k.a., PMTW) is discussed on the Contact Page.
If you don’t mind ME seeing a question to an author, you can just do a “PMTW” on the author’s post (meaning THEY are the author of the article/daily/whatever), and both ME and the author will see it. Well, hopefully. Some authors will just ignore “orange comments” that drop into the moderation bin, so you are taking a chance.
There is another problem with using PMTW – there is no way to private message BACK. You would have to be answered in public. Yes, you can use PMTW to pass on an email address, but even that is a bit sketchy. What if your PMTW has an error, and accidentally posts so that the whole public sees it? Yes, that can happen.
All of this leads to the next option.
Contact the Author Using Gab Chat or Twitter DMs
This is my favorite.
Gab Chat is right on the home page menu when you log into Gab. You simply click on “Chats” in the menu. It’s not the same as the old highly secure Gab Chat with end-to-end encryption, but it’s still good, and better than Twitter right now. And you CAN use the end-to-end encrypted Gab Chat, too, if both of you have it.
To contact somebody on Gab, you need to be on Gab, and then to know their handle. Go to their page and click on the two-bubble chat icon.
IMPORTANT! If you want to make sure the person sees your message, tell them on this site in a reply, that they have a Gab message waiting.
Here are the author handles on Gab:
Wolf Moon – @ WOLFM00N

bakocarl – @ bakocarl
Aubergine – @ frznpch
michaelh – @ mhtx76
Gail Combs – @ GC0mbs [note the zero]
Valerie Curren – @ ValerieCurren
To contact somebody on Twitter, you need to be on Twitter, and POSSIBLY to be following each other. It depends on how permissive people have set their DMs.
Here are the author handles on Twitter:
Wolf Moon – @ WOLFM00N
TradeBait2 – none

Twitter is not as good as Gab, in my opinion, because Twitter DMs are all visible to the entire Regime AND the DNC. Gab is much preferred, IMO.

JENNIFER BILEK: Is humanity ready for LGBTQ+ tech babies and the full erasure of women from reproduction? | Human Events | humanevents. @11thBlog https://t.co/OrZNO1VFuf
Wolbachia is a genus of intracellular bacteria that infects mainly arthropod species, including a high proportion of insects, and also some nematodes. It is one of the most common parasitic microbes, and is possibly the most common reproductive parasite in the biosphere. Its interactions with its hosts are often complex, and in some cases have evolved to be mutualistic rather than parasitic. Some host species cannot reproduce, or even survive, without Wolbachia colonization. One study concluded that more than 16% of neotropical insect species carry bacteria of this genus, and as many as 25 to 70% of all insect species are estimated to be potential hosts.
History of Wolbachia:
The genus was first identified in 1924 by Marshall Hertig and Simeon Burt Wolbach in the common house mosquito. They described it as “a somewhat pleomorphic, rodlike, Gram-negative, intracellular organism [that] apparently infects only the ovaries and testes“. Hertig formally described the species in 1936, and proposed both the generic and specific names: Wolbachia pipientis. Research on Wolbachia intensified after 1971, when Janice Yen and A. Ralph Barr of UCLA discovered that Culex mosquito eggs were killed by a cytoplasmic incompatibility when the sperm of Wolbachia-infected males fertilized infection-free eggs. The genus Wolbachia is of considerable interest today due to its ubiquitous distribution, its many different evolutionary interactions, and its potential use as a biocontrol agent.
Why Bill Gates is probably interested in Wolbachia:
Note: This is just the beginning. Look HERE for more.
These bacteria can infect many different types of organs, but are most notable for the infections of the testes and ovaries of their hosts. Wolbachia species are ubiquitous in mature eggs, but not mature sperm. Only infected females, therefore, pass the infection on to their offspring. Wolbachia bacteria maximize their spread by significantly altering the reproductive capabilities of their hosts, with four different phenotypes:
Male killing occurs when infected males die during larval development, which increases the rate of born, infected females.
Feminization results in infected males that develop as females or infertile pseudofemales. This is especially prevalent in Lepidoptera species such as the adzuki bean borer (Ostrinia scapulalis).
Parthenogenesis is reproduction of infected females without males. Some scientists have suggested that parthenogenesis may always be attributable to the effects of Wolbachia. Though this is not the case for the marbled crayfish. An example of parthenogenesis induced by presence of Wolbachia are some species within the Trichogramma parasitoid wasp genus, which have evolved to procreate without males due to the presence of Wolbachia. Males are rare in this genus of wasp, possibly because many have been killed by that same strain of Wolbachia.
Cytoplasmic incompatibility is the inability of Wolbachia-infected males to successfully reproduce with uninfected females or females infected with another Wolbachia strain. This reduces the reproductive success of those uninfected females and therefore promotes the infecting strain. In the cytoplasmic incompatibility mechanism, Wolbachia interferes with the parental chromosomes during the first mitotic divisions to the extent that they can no longer divide in synchrony.
Several host species, such as those within the genus Trichogramma, are so dependent on sexual differentiation of Wolbachia that they are unable to reproduce effectively without the bacteria in their bodies, and some might even be unable to survive uninfected.
One study on infected woodlice showed the broods of infected organisms had a higher proportion of females than their uninfected counterparts.
Wolbachia, especially Wolbachia-caused cytoplasmic incompatibility, may be important in promoting speciation. Wolbachia strains that distort the sex ratio may alter their host’s pattern of sexual selection in nature, and also engender strong selection to prevent their action, leading to some of the fastest examples of natural selection in natural populations.
The male killing and feminization effects of Wolbachia infections can also lead to speciation in their hosts. For example, populations of the pill woodlouse, Armadillidium vulgare which are exposed to the feminizing effects of Wolbachia, have been known to lose their female-determining chromosome. In these cases, only the presence of Wolbachia can cause an individual to develop into a female. Cryptic species of ground wētā (Hemiandrus maculifrons complex) are host to different lineages of Wolbachia which might explain their speciation without ecological or geographical separation.
Wolbachia infection has been linked to viral resistance in Drosophila melanogaster, Drosophila simulans, and mosquito species. Flies, including mosquitoes, infected with the bacteria are more resistant to RNA viruses such as Drosophila C virus, norovirus, flock house virus, cricket paralysis virus, chikungunya virus, and West Nile virus.
In the common house mosquito, higher levels of Wolbachia were correlated with more insecticide resistance.
In leafminers of the species Phyllonorycter blancardella, Wolbachia bacteria help their hosts produce green islands on yellowing tree leaves, that is, small areas of leaf remaining fresh, allowing the hosts to continue feeding while growing to their adult forms. Larvae treated with tetracycline, which kills Wolbachia, lose this ability and subsequently only 13% emerge successfully as adult moths.
Muscidifurax uniraptor, a parasitoid wasp, also benefits from hosting Wolbachia bacteria.
In the parasitic filarial nematode species responsible for elephantiasis, such as Brugia malayi and Wuchereria bancrofti, Wolbachia has become an obligate endosymbiont and provides the host with chemicals necessary for its reproduction and survival. Elimination of the Wolbachia symbionts through antibiotic treatment therefore prevents reproduction of the nematode, and eventually results in its premature death.
Some Wolbachia species that infect arthropods also provide some metabolic provisioning to their hosts. In Drosophila melanogaster, Wolbachia is found to mediate iron metabolism under nutritional stress and in Cimex lectularius, the Wolbachia strain cCle helps the host to synthesize B vitamins.
Some Wolbachia strains have increased their prevalence by increasing their hosts’ fecundity. Wolbachia strains captured from 1988 in southern California still induce a fecundity deficit, but nowadays the fecundity deficit is replaced with a fecundity advantage such that infected Drosophila simulans produces more offspring than the uninfected ones.
Wolbachia often manipulates host reproduction and life-history in a way that favours its own propagation. In the Pharaoh ant, Wolbachia infection correlates with increased colony-level production of reproductives (i.e., greater reproductive investment), and earlier onset of reproductive production (i.e., shorter life-cycle). Infected colonies also seem to grow more rapidly. There is substantial evidence that the presence of Wolbachia that induce parthenogenesis have put pressure on species to reproduce primarily or entirely this way.
Additionally, Wolbachia has been seen to decrease the lifespan of Aedes aegypti, carriers of mosquito-borne diseases, and it decreases their efficacy of pathogen transmission because older mosquitoes are more likely to have become carriers of one of those diseases. This has been exploited as a method for pest control.
The first Wolbachia genome to be determined was that of one that infects D. melanogaster fruit flies. This genome was sequenced at The Institute for Genomic Research in a collaboration between Jonathan Eisen and Scott O’Neill. The second Wolbachia genome to be determined was one that infects Brugia malayi nematodes. Genome sequencing projects for several other Wolbachia strains are in progress. A nearly complete copy of the Wolbachia genome sequence was found within the genome sequence of the fruit fly Drosophila ananassae and large segments were found in seven other Drosophila species.
In an application of DNA barcoding to the identification of species of Protocalliphora flies, several distinct morphospecies had identical cytochrome c oxidase I gene sequences, most likely through horizontal gene transfer (HGT) by Wolbachia species as they jump across host species. As a result, Wolbachia can cause misleading results in molecular cladistical analyses. It is estimated that between 20 and 50 percent of insect species have evidence of HGT from Wolbachia—passing from microbes to animal (i.e. insects).
Wolbachia species also harbor a bacteriophage called bacteriophage WO or phage WO. Comparative sequence analyses of bacteriophage WO offer some of the most compelling examples of large-scale horizontal gene transfer between Wolbachia coinfections in the same host. It is the first bacteriophage implicated in frequent lateral transfer between the genomes of bacterial endosymbionts. Gene transfer by bacteriophages could drive significant evolutionary change in the genomes of intracellular bacteria that were previously considered highly stable or prone to loss of genes over time.
The small non-coding RNAs WsnRNA-46 and WsnRNA-59 in Wolbachia were detected in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and Drosophila melanogaster. The small RNAs (sRNAs) may regulate bacterial and host genes. Highly conserved intragenic region sRNA called ncrwmel02 was also identified in Wolbachia pipientis. It is expressed in four different strains in a regulated pattern that differs according to the sex of the host and the tissue localisation. This suggested that the sRNA may play important roles in the biology of Wolbachia.
Outside of insects, Wolbachia infects a variety of isopod species, spiders, mites, and many species of filarial nematodes (a type of parasitic worm), including those causing onchocerciasis (river blindness) and elephantiasis in humans, as well as heartworms in dogs. Not only are these disease-causing filarial worms infected with Wolbachia, but Wolbachia also seems to play an inordinate role in these diseases.
A large part of the pathogenicity of filarial nematodes is due to host immune response toward their Wolbachia. Elimination of Wolbachia from filarial nematodes generally results in either death or sterility of the nematode. Consequently, current strategies for control of filarial nematode diseases include elimination of their symbiotic Wolbachia via the simple doxycycline antibiotic, rather than directly killing the nematode with often more toxic antinematode medications.

Sorry people, but I heard this here country song today, booming out of a bar, after walking out of a diner, having just eaten the best breakfast in years, and you’re gonna hear this song until you’re sick of it!
DRINKABY
(this version’s for Kalbo!)
WHAT? This song has lyrics? Well, I’ll be! I never noticed! Let’s look at them lyrics!
So how about the official video? Heck – let’s listen to it again!
What the heck! Where’s the beef? DANG! That’s not a video. That a picture!
We’ll have to look at another line dance to make up for the disappointment!
Apparently Korean chicks LOVE this song. There are TONS of videos of Korean gals dancing to “Drinkaby”. So, given that I love ALL CHICKS, and KOREAN CHICKS are a valid subset of ALL CHICKS, we’re gonna watch another one, just to prove I wasn’t lyin’ about it!
Well, shucks. If we can’t find a REAL VIDEO for THAT song, we’ll just grab another Cole Swindell drinking song, and call it good!
Pour another round for the boys, and let’s have a toast to DOUBLE-X, my friends!

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
Amen to that! I don't know if people realize it but they are serious about total control over everything. It's their NWO rebranded as the Great Reset. They want to force to eat bugs, control our speech, where we can live, EVERYTHING!

Examples of mondegreen:
Africa – When Toto’s lead singer croons, “bless the rains down in Africa,” some listeners mistake the first few words for left my brains.
Away in a Manger – Even Christmas songs aren’t immune to mondegreen. Instead of hearing “the cattle are lowing,” some people incorrectly understand the lyric to say that they’re lonely.
Blowin’ in the Wind–Bob Dylan advises listeners, “the answer my friends, is blowin’ in the wind,” but not everyone hears it that way. Some perceive the first part of that line as saying the ants are my friends.
Bohemian Rhapsody – While this Queen song does have some nonsense words, the tune doesn’t actually reference saving someone from warm sausage tea. Instead, Freddie Mercury sings “… spare him his life from this monstrosity,” with a strong emphasis on each syllable.
Brass in Pocket – The Pretenders tell listeners, “I’m gonna use my sidestep,” but not everyone hears the last word correctly. Some think they’re saying sausage instead of sidestep.
Dancing Queen– Abba says to “feel the beat from the tambourine,” though some listeners insist the singer croons the word tangerine instead.
Every Time You Go Away – People who hear meat instead of me when Paul Young sings “you take away a piece of me with you” must think the singer’s freezer is being robbed.
Happy– When Pharell sings “happiness is the truth,” some people think he’s actually saying that “happiness is the zoo.”
High on You – The words of this Survivor song reference “piercin’ eyes like a raven,” though listeners often mishear the song as saying glistening eyes.
I‘m a Believer – After the Monkees croon, “then I saw her face, now” some think they follow up with “I’m gonna leave her.” What they really say, though, is “I’m a believer.”
Livin on a Prayer – Contrary to popular belief, Bon Jovi doesn’t suggest nudity in this song. Some mishear the last part of “it doesn’t really matter if we make it or not” as saying naked or not.
Losing My Religion – R.E.M. croons, “That’s me in the corner. That’s me in the spotlight.” Many listeners mistake the word “me” for pee in both of these sentences.
Money for Nothing – Listeners often think this Dire Straits song references free chips, when the lyrics actually reference “money for nothing and your chicks for free.”
Our Lips are Sealed – The Go-Gos sing about “the jealous games people play,” but some people hear Dallas instead of jealous.
Smells Like Teen Spirit – In this Nirvana song, Kurt Cobain sings, “here we are now, entertain us,” though some people interpret the last two words as in containers.
Suspicious Minds – Elvis Presly croons, “we’re caught in a trap,” but some listeners seem to think the last word is actually trout.
Drift Away – When Uncle Kracker sings, “Give me the beat boys and free my soul,” it sounds a bit like he’s saying Beach Boys.
Waterfalls – In this song, TLC advises readers, “don’t go chasing waterfalls.” though some readers think they’re trying to keep someone named Jason Waterfalls from leaving.
We Found Love – When Rhianna sings “what it takes to come alive,” some listeners mishear the end of the line as form a line instead of “come alive.”
Rocket Man – The Elton John line “burning out his fuse up here alone” has been misheard many ways, including running out of fuel and heading home and burning up the trees on every lawn. Volkswagen even used this mondegreen in a commercial.
Mondegreen in a video
Malapropism via Text-to-Speech or Auto-Correct Eggcorn
“I had no idea what the butchers do to the trance people.”
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
And yes, it’s Monday…again.
But we WILL get through it!!!
With or without zombies!
Get your dancing shoes on!
And hang on for some TRUMP GRAVITY!

WHEATIE – OUR WARRIOR ANGEL
by Duchess01
Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know That you had left us with armor in tow We had no idea with what you dealt We did not know the pain you felt And now we can only imagine With you what really did happen Cause rarely did you complain And/or share your personal pain Of one thing we are most certain You are flying high behind the curtain Watching over us above the crowds Our Warrior Angel above the clouds Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us While you were here among the fuss We miss you dear you have no idea Since time began in the pangaea With you there was no time In your wisdom you would chime To clarify and magnify The what where how and why We did not question when you left We were not slightly bereft But over time we wondered why You did not at least stop by Now we know where you have gone With the break of this new dawn We could be angry but are not Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear Send us a sign that you are near A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain From your love do not refrain God sends Angels to watch over us And now we have an Angel Plus A Warrior Angel of Magnificence From today and forward hence
Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1
Now shortened.
Give them nothing.
Play smart. Every minute, the COUPISTS who stole the election – who lied – who deserve to be at the business end of the very same laws they are using so wrongly against the January Sixth defendants – are trying to set you up. Don’t be a chump. Turn everything back against THEM. Every day, every hour, every minute, every second.
YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..
For an updated version…..
And for a version that includes your having righteously defended yourself…..
OTHER THAN THAT…….
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won TWO elections.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
FIRST – a quick, 3-minute version of the end theme from Gladiator, including dialog. I posted this earlier in a reply to Tradebait on his latest BMID. I consider Gladiator a very symbolic movie, which has a lot to say about Christianity, but very subtly, and mixed well into everything else.
If you liked that, an extended version, starting earlier, with the movie showing in the background!
How about something YouTube suggested? From the EP “Luna”, by Tony Anderson, a title called “Eternal Spring”. The visuals are really something!
And now – some fine country music just for today!
Finally, some music to go with our featured image “fantasy tree”!
Call To Battle
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the DayYear Week:
equity
noun
the state or quality of being just and fair.
something that is just and fair.
sustice achieved not simply according to the strict letter of the law but in accordance with principles of substantial justice and the unique facts of the case.
the amount of money that would be returned to a company’s shareholders if all of the assets were liquidated and all of the company’s debt was paid off in the case of liquidation.
the value of company sales minus any liabilities owed by the company not transferred with the sale.
the book value of a company.
payment-in-kind.
the pro-rata ownership of a company’s shares.
Wolf’s additional definitions:
how tyrants and criminals violate both the letter and spirit of the law, in the name of “fairness” and “justice”, while tipping the scales to favor themselves, their friends, and their fellow criminals.
injustice under the color of justice, ironically often done for the sake of “color”.
a redundancy, in that “equitable justice” really means “just justice”, meaning je ne sais quoi justice, or seat-of-the-robe justice.
justice by feeling and not by law.
an admission that the law is not working, so “fuck the law – we’ll just do what we like.”
a legal kludge, which is easily abused, where judicial algorithms break down, and people resort to flimsy neural net solutions, typically with strongly biased inputs.
Wikipedia definition (financial):
In finance, equity is an ownership interest in property that may be offset by debts or other liabilities. Equity is measured for accounting purposes by subtracting liabilities from the value of the assets owned. For example, if someone owns a car worth $24,000 and owes $10,000 on the loan used to buy the car, the difference of $14,000 is equity. Equity can apply to a single asset, such as a car or house, or to an entire business. A business that needs to start up or expand its operations can sell its equity in order to raise cash that does not have to be repaid on a set schedule.
When liabilities attached to an asset exceed its value, the difference is called a deficit and the asset is informally said to be “underwater” or “upside-down”. In government finance or other non-profit settings, equity is known as “net position” or “net assets”.
Investopedia definition:
Wikipedia definition (legal):
Equity is a particular body of law that was developed in the English Court of Chancery.[1] Its general purpose is to provide a remedy for situations where the law is not flexible enough for the usual court system to deliver a fair resolution to a case.[2] The concept of equity is deeply intertwined with its historical origins in the common law system used in England.[2] However, equity is in some ways a separate system from common law: it has its own established rules and principles, and was historically administered by separate courts, called “courts of equity” or “courts of chancery”.[2]
Equity exists in domestic law, both in civil law and in common law systems, and in international law.[1] The tradition of equity begins in antiquity with the writings of Aristotle (epieikeia) and with Roman law (aequitas).[1][3] Later, in civil law systems, equity was integrated in the legal rules, while in common law systems it became an independent body of law.[1]
Used in a Sentence:
“Climate equity is the goal of recognizing and addressing the unequal burdens made worse by climate change, while ensuring that all people share the benefits of climate protection efforts. Achieving equity means that all people—regardless of their race, color, gender, age, sexuality, national origin, ability, or income—live in safe, healthy, fair communities.” -US EPA

Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the DayYear Week:
supermajority
noun
a majority (such as two-thirds or three-fifths) greater than a simple majority.
a majority that must represent some percentage more than a simple majority.
a requirement for a proposal to gain a specified level or type of support which exceeds a simple majority in order to have effect.
a vote that must exceed the number of votes comprising a simple majority.
also called a qualified majority
Wikipedia definition:
A supermajority, is a requirement for a proposal to gain a specified level of support which is greater than the threshold of more than one-half used for a simple majority. Supermajority rules in a democracy can help to prevent a majority from eroding fundamental rights of a minority, but they can also hamper efforts to respond to problems and encourage corrupt compromises at times when action is taken.
Used in a Sentence:
Representative Tricia Cotham switched parties, giving NC Republicans the supermajority they need to override any veto by Gov. Roy Cooper.
Tennessee is one of an increasing number of states (19 Republican, nine Democratic) where one party has a “supermajority,” such a lopsided advantage that it can override a governor’s veto without relying on votes from the other party.
For the first time in nearly a half century, there is a six-justice conservative supermajority on the U.S. Supreme Court — six justices with clearly expressed views against abortion rights.

He is telling the truth. Me, and everyone I know who works in healthcare file religious exemptions every year over the flu VAX because we’ve seen what it does.
Religious exemption. It pisses them off, but they have to observe it. When I first started working at a VA hospital, nobody was aware that such a thing even existed by the time I left I think everybody did so when the whole Covid scam started everyone was well educated
The bottom line is that I have simply checked the gene sequences of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, and verified that they BOTH contain nucleic acid code that translates to the shorter PRRARSV protein code, which is a kind of “hall pass” into the cell nucleus.
Thus, BOTH of these vaccines produce a spike protein which science would predict has the same ability as the virus spike protein, to (1) get into the cell nucleus, and furthermore (2) schlep its own mRNA along with it into the cell nucleus, and finally (3) as proven by experiment on the Pfizer vaccine, integrate the spike protein gene sequence into the human cellular genome.
That’s it. If you want all the gory details, stay tuned. Otherwise, that’s the BLUF (bottom line up front). Have a great day! -Wolf
Introduction
OK – I have an important update to the whole topic of mRNA vaccines messing with people’s genes, and in particular, with a part of the COVID-19 spike protein mRNA sequence called the PRRARSV nuclear translocation signal. This “key” within the whole sequence is like an ID card for the cell nucleus. It was identified in the natural COVID-19 spike protein, and now it appears to remain in both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.
I have posted on this topic – the PRRARSV Nuclear Translocation Signal – THREE times before.
First, I posted when I discovered the Mehedi paper, and realized how important it is.
The Mehedi paper explains WHY there is genomic incorporation of the COVID-19 spike protein – specifically, because the spike protein has what is essentially a key to the cell nucleus.
This is SO HUGE. I must explain this to you. TL;DR – The spike protein not only contains a special sequence that allows it into the cell nucleus – it also has an ability to bring its own spike mRNA sequence with it. Both features appear to be unique among coronaviruses. The features explain genomic …
The next time I posted, was the moment that I realized that the murdered American scientist Bing Liu had been directing his research focus to the EXACT SAME SPOT in the SARS-CoV-2 gene sequence – the PRRARSV sequence – when he was conveniently murdered by a crazed acquaintance who was apparently contending with him over a lover.
To me, this murder absolutely REEKED of MKULTRA. Bing Liu had a plausible weakness and it was exploited. Not all people realize how dangerous the science world can be. Not so this cowboy – I’ve been through a lot of weird, evil bullshit in Scienceville, over the years.
Bing apparently recognized that this sequence is found in snake venoms and other, more deadly viruses, and was thus potentially close to realizing that this part of the sequence was behind certain aspects of the pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2, as well as those other things.
Stated another way – maybe nuclear translocation is WHY those other things are so bad.
Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President: AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS. This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both). …
Finally, at a certain point I realized that any “accidental” explanation of the presence of a working translocation signal which not only violates the central promise of mRNA vaccine technology, but installs the violation itself in the nucleus, was simply too incongruous to be an accident. It’s a BLOODY HACK. There was no way that – on the very first roll-out of a genetic vaccine – the technology which was PRIZED for making the technology safe against genetic incorporation, instead caused genetic incorporation OF the very instructions for genetic incorporation.
I mean, think about it. What are the chances? It’s almost as crazy as the sinking of the “unsinkable” Titanic.
You see what I’m sayin’? This outrageously excellent attack simply cannot be a case of “whoops”. The TRICK is not the “AW SHUCKS, THAT’S LIFE” which sells as stage two to the hubris of the chumps. That’s just the getaway. The TRICK is the LIE – the PROMISE that is actively worked against from the very beginning, and intentionally not delivered.
Ask yourself a simple question. Why should the very first examples of mRNA vaccines for humans violate the most important safety standard of the mRNA platform? Why would the vaccines do exactly what they PROMISED US the vaccines would not do? TL;DR – They didn’t just lie to us about the spike mRNA not going …
I wrote that last post with a certain sense of frustration. NOBODY in COVID Dissident World seemed to understand the importance of this whole “nuclear translocation signal” thing. Either that, or they were utterly afraid to speak of it. Indeed, our RDS is one of the few people who has dared to shine a light on the topic.
I set it aside for a while and basically gave up.
The other side did not give up. During that time, I was seriously shadow-banned on Twitter. Elon’s FEDS are busy little beavers, damming up the truth.
But now, something interesting has happened. On Twitter.
A Tale of Two Acronyms: PRRARSV and SV40
RDS posted a comment that included a tweet of a translated video of the brave Japanese professor who publicly challenged the Japanese Ministry of Health over the crappy vaccines.
Here, Murakami is discussing contaminating plasmid DNA (little circles of DNA) which were found in very significant quantity in expired vials of the Pfizer vaccine. It’s easier to watch the video on Twitter.
This SV40 stuff also gets into a shocker about nuclear incorporation, but this is not the same shocker as the PRRARSV stuff. This is ANOTHER ANGLE on a different path into the nucleus.
Are you starting to believe me now about intent? Read on.
Japanese professor, Murakami of Tokyo University of Science made an amazing finding.
The Pfizer's vaccine contains the SV40 sequence which is known as a promoter of the cancer virus. The SV40 sequence is completely unnecessary to produce the mRNA vaccine. https://t.co/RtnbCUHAmJpic.twitter.com/gZx5ycf1L9
The translation is as follows. It is a conversation between Professor Murakami (M) and another person (P). I may have gotten a couple of assignments mixed up, when both are talking, but have done my best to attribute statements properly, based on what I can discern.
Commentary by Professor Murakami
(M) It is now possible to read the DNA sequences present in the vaccines. This is the DNA read from the Moderna vaccine.
(P) It may be difficult for the general public to understand, but this sequence is in the form of a ring. Plasmid DNA is in the form of a ring, and the DNA sequence is described in this ring. Spike proteins are encoded in this part of the DNA sequence.
(M) This part of the DNA sequence shows the spike gene. The Moderna’s vaccine has a vector sequence that is often present in Escherichia coli. However, the Pfizer’s vaccine has a staggering problem. I have made an amazing finding. This figure is an enlarged view of Pfizer’s vaccine sequence. As you can see, the Pfizer’s vaccine sequence contains part of the SV40 sequence here. This sequence is known as a promoter. Roughly speaking, the promoter causes increased expression of the gene. The promoter is a sequence that is essential for gene expression. The problem is that the sequence is present in a well-known carcinogenic virus. The question is why such a sequence that is derived from such a cancer virus is present in the Pfizer’s. There should be absolutely no need for such a carcinogenic virus sequence in the vaccine. This sequence is totally unnecessary for producing the mRNA vaccine. It is a problem that such a sequence is solidly contained in the vaccine. This is not the only problem. If a sequence this is present in the DNA, the DNA is easily migrated to the nucleus. So it means that the DNA can easily enter the genome. The problem is that if such a sequence remains intact, the DNA is easily migrated to the nucleus. It means that the DNA can easily enter the nucleus. These are such alarming problems.
(P) Does it mean that the SV40 promoter also contains sequences that can be migrated to the nucleus?
(M) Yes, that’s what I mean.
(P) So you are saying that the DNA can go to the nucleus easily?
(M) It means that the DNA contains sequences that can easily go to the nucleus. This is a well-known fact. This fact has already been documented in a number of scientific literature. It is essential to remove such sequences. The sequences have to be removed. However, Pfizer produced the vaccines without removing the sequences.
(P) This is outrageously malicious.
(M) That’s right. Pfizer retained the SV40 promoter sequence which is completely unrelated to the in vitro synthesis of the messenger.
(P) This issue should be questioned. Why such a promoter sequence is present in the DNA? This kind of promoter sequence is completely unnecessary for the production of the mRNA vaccine. In fact, SV40 is a promoter of cancer viruses.
(M) Yes, SV40 is well known.
(P) The sequence that promotes the cancer virus is present in the DNA for some reasons. As we know, we use this SV40 promoter sequence in various experiments. However, the question is why the promoter sequence is present in this mRNA vaccine.
Do YOU have some questions at this point? I sure as hell do. And the presence of multiple PHARMA TROLLS on Twitter, muddying the water with disingenuous excuses and throw-away coddles, makes things look even more suspicious.
RDS and I discussed this at some length in Saturday’s open. I urge interested readers to follow the above link, repeated here, to see our talk about this video, but it is not necessary for the following discussion.
I then proceeded to Twitter, and got caught up in a variety of arguments between the awesome Jikkyleaks and various “defenders of the narrative”, to put it kindly.
Many of these people (I will avoid calling them “pharma trolls”) shoot from the hip, and – despite sometimes being what should be experts in their fields, seem to have no grasp of basic logic applied to basic principles of biology. They are perfect, however, for defending scientific orthodoxy in a somewhat religious manner.
Meanwhile, sharper people in biotech who understand the basic WTF (like the presence of extraneous DNA in an RNA vaccine being an actual problem) are literally running toward the enemy with the downfall of the original vaccine sales narrative.
I should add, at this point, that SOMEBODY at Twitter is desperately covering all of this up. Twitter uses a stealthy way of “downgrading replies” to hide really important pharma stuff, without overtly banning content. It’s rather ingenious, but it’s VERY frustrating.
First of all, these Twitter IC people are fooling the hell out of Elon Musk – or maybe they aren’t. Either way, some of the most important biology about the vaccines is being hidden, and IMO it sucks big-time.
Thus, it was nearly impossible for me to find the following conversation again. Twitter had hidden my comments so effectively, that I myself could not find them in my own timelines of Tweets and Replies. But with persistence, I did find them.
This conversation and the interspersed commentary explains the how and why of my verifying that the nuclear translocation signal IS in fact in the two main mRNA vaccines – and in my opinion, intentionally so.
Enjoy.
We begin with a Pharm Boy attacking Murakami’s analysis.
Hello, this is false. The plasmid does not contain the entire SV40 gene, just the ori of replication, poly(A) signal, and a promoter. None of these sequences allow for translocation into the nucleus. That sequence is contained in the VP2 region, which is not in this plasmid
The abstract, with the relevant text in BOLD, is here:
ABSTRACT
One of the steps that limit transfection efficiency in non-viral gene delivery is inefficient nuclear import of plasmid DNA, once it has been delivered into the cytoplasm. Recently, via microinjection into the cytoplasm and in situ hybridizations into a few cell types, it was shown that a region of Simian virus 40(SV40), specifically a c. 372-bp fragment of SV40 genomic DNA encompassing the SV40 promoter-enhancer-origin of replication (SV40 DTS), could enable the nuclear import of a plasmid carrying these sequences (Dean D.A. Exp. Cell Res. 230 (1997) 293). In this report, we address the issue of the suitability of the SV40 DTS for cationic lipid-mediated gene delivery, and its capacity to improve the efficiency of the transfection process. For this study, we used transient reporter gene expression assays on various cell types. The gene expression from the plasmid constructs carrying the SV40 DTS varied with cell type and plasmid construct used. Such cell-type and plasmid-construct dependency on gene expression from plasmids containing the SV40 DTS suggests that the gene expression from plasmids is not entirely dependent on its ability to enhance the nuclear import of said plasmids.
The smarmy Taylor responds to this, as follows.
Lmaoooo the plasmid doesn’t contain the enhancer region genius. Just the origin of rep, promoter, and poly(A) signal.
Can you link something saying that using only these three regions that transport into the nucleus is facilitated? Take your time
McKernan does not respond to this, and I don’t know whether Taylor’s point is valid, but assuming that it is correct, the point stands – is the fragment included sufficient to enable nuclear translocation?
This is where I decided to “inject” the fact that there already IS a nuclear translocation signal present (in the lipid nanoparticle) in the spike protein mRNA, so that RNA may be covering for DNA transport as well. But I wanted to make sure that McKernan saw it – I don’t particularly care about Taylor. So I answered directly to McKernan, on the same tweet that Taylor used. I included a link to the Mehedi paper, which is sorely under-exposed.
Is any of this influenced by the simultaneous presence of a translocation signal in the spike protein itself, which does appear to assist translocation of spike mRNA?https://t.co/q2oocDy5eU
I figured that Taylor would respond, and he/she/it did immediately.
[SIDEBAR – I would not be surprised if Twitter insiders are helping these pharma bots by – e.g. – making sure that Taylor Ray and fellow “influencers” can see my input, but that my fellow free scientists, including Kevin McKernan, cannot.]
This paper is about the actual spike protein from the virus, not the spike generated from mRNA vaccines, whose binding site is inactivated.
Taylor’s comment, beginning with “this paper is about something else”, betrays a kind of battered science syndrome that keeps science exactly where the Cabal wants it – defending its own orthodoxy – never questioning by looking off the plantation. It is based on exactly the kind of authority-and-orthodoxy-defending, “teacher’s pet” science that I detest.
Yes, there is a very legitimate question about “virus versus vaccine” – that a VIRUS result is not exactly the same as a VACCINE result. However, if you’re looking at the same or similar things happening for both, and one has a shared culprit, what does logic say?
The entire vaccine paradigm is built on the idea of virus-vaccine symmetry, so if you’re not looking honestly at “virus predicts vaccine” as your FIRST STEP of analysis, you’re never going to predict anything.
Which, by the way, is exactly what the Cabal wants.
This is a perfect example of “unethical skepticism”, as The Ethical Skeptic teaches us.
Taylor at least has the decency of adding a weak and wobbly excuse for a difference – “whose binding site is inactivated”.
This is chaff and countermeasures, as Sundance likes to say. See if you can put that together from my measured, friendly response.
Yes, it's true that Mehedi's work was done on the viral spike mRNA and protein. Likewise, it is true that the full spike pseudo-mRNA in the vaccines has a few seq changes such as prolines to lock conformation, etc. Those don't address whether a functioning NT signal remains.
What I’m saying here implies that the “inactivated binding site” in the vaccine (which itself implies possible changes in the total sequence) does not necessarily affect the presence of a nuclear translocation signal (NTS). These are two different features in the protein. Bringing that up is CHAFF.
Notice that I am not backing down on the idea that data from the virus can and likely is predictive of the vaccines. I am just waiting for Taylor to assert openly that they are not.
Taylor, instead of challenging me, tries a very sneaky deflection.
A quick BLAST search should resolve this as the NLS sequence in the COVID spike is from aa residue 682 to 685.
This gets into bioinformatics. BLAST is a search engine of gene and protein sequences, which allows people to quickly find matching sequences – OR TO MISS THEM.
For sensitive operations, I simply don’t trust BLAST. It’s like Google. It’s a great place to look if you’re willing to throw your cares onto somebody else’s software, but it’s easy to miss things.
The SNEAKY move by Taylor is to MISLEAD me away from PRRARSV into a BAD SEARCH. The suggestion is to use an overly broad search of only 4 amino acids (682-683-684-685). Sorry, Charlie. No dice. I am interested in exactly what I said – PRRARSV – seven amino acids.
Instead, I decided to look for the sequences of the vaccines, and then use simple tools to check for the presence of the PRRARSV signal in them.
To begin with, note that there are TWO kinds of sequences I can potentially get for the vaccines.
the actual sequences, obtained by analyzing the vaccines
the “official” sequences, released by Pfizer and Moderna, the FDA, or somebody else
I tried to get official versions, but simply could not find them. So I found a link in the broader discussion of the results which Murakami was looking at.
The first thing you will note is that this is not likely to contain PRRARSV in it, because it’s all G, T, C, and A, like GATTACA.
This code needs to be translated from DNA/RNA to AMINO ACID, and for that, I need TEXT – not an image. So I looked for a different GitHub upload of the data, with text instead of images, and I found one.
Plugging in the sequences from the paper on GitHub, it’s straightforward. Here are the two vaccines, translated to amino acids, as both images and text.
In each vaccine, there is one and only one instance of the full PRRARSV nuclear translocation signal mentioned by Mehedi, which I have marked in BOLD.
So what does all this mean?
This means that there is no question – the same nuclear translocation signal which gets natural spike protein into the cell nucleus, and natural spike protein messenger RNA into the nucleus, BOTH as demonstrated by Mehedi, is in the vaccine spike proteins.
Do I have to spell it out any more than that? Are the members of the Pfizer Defense Legion so incurious as to what this might mean, that they have to fight the obvious truth every step of the way?
Watch what happens next.
Thank you. You prompted me to do the work. The full nuclear translocation signal (PRRARSV) cited by @masfique appears to be intact in both the actual Pfizer and Moderna sequences. Here is Pfizer.
Taylor’s response was interesting, and I didn’t expect it.
Wonder if the inactivated binding side negates this as it doesn’t allow the vaccine spike to be taken up by the cell. But thank you for doing your due diligence, this is good information
This response actually set me up to explain why the binding site issue is largely irrelevant. First my reply, then the explanation.
Thanks! Even assuming that cell surface binding/entry inactivation reduces direct secondary toxicity of the vaccine-produced spike to new cells, the NTS still means that primary genotoxicity of the Ψ-mRNA+spike may occur for any cell affected by LNP-enabled uptake of Ψ-mRNA.
TRANSLATION: Even if the vaccine-produced spike protein is “inactivated” toward some unspecified binding interaction in some unspecified way [which is contrary to the use of the largely unchanged full spike protein for immunogenic reasons, but let’s just ignore that point], so that the spike does not engage in some alleged “binding” in some way [I provide a plausible example], it doesn’t mean that the spike is not doing exactly what the viral spike has been proven to do, in terms of getting into the cell nucleus, AND bringing in its own mRNA at the same time.
Twitter’s character limits forced me to make that reply too jargon-filled for most, and possibly even for Taylor, who seemed not to have understood the full life cycle of the vaccine.
Allow me to explain in even more detail what I said, which was designed to clarify the issue for Taylor.
Let’s assume that the vaccine spike is somehow “inactivated” in its interaction with cell surface receptors. This would mean that new vaccine spike created by cells, would not interact with new cells in the same way as new disease spike protein, whether that spike was alone or part of a virus particle. I refer to that as “secondary toxicity”.
What I’m pointing out is that this is irrelevant to a “primary” toxicity concern – in fact a “genotoxicity”. This is the risk that spike protein produced in a cell, due to that cell ingesting a lipid nanoparticle of vaccine, might then get into the nucleus, and change the nature of that cell in a more fundamental way.
Now it is understood that the vaccine is “supposed to” lead to the death of infected cells, when those cells produce a bunch of spike protein, and are attacked by the immune system. The problem is that this doesn’t always happen, and indeed may not even be the primary fate of cells which take in the vaccine nanoparticles. What happens if the bell curve of vaccine intake creates a large number of cells which are damaged but not dead – which are not cleaned up by the immune system – and which have injured nuclei? There are lots of ways for things to go wrong.
What I am basically saying is that if the Mehedi results apply to vaccinated cells that are not cleaned up, we have a “bad cell problem”, and the problem isn’t just the spike – it’s in the nucleus. The cell’s problems have just become more “permanent”.
And that’s where things are. That fight is over, but I’m fighting over the De Marinis paper on another part of Twitter. That one is interesting, too.
STAY TUNED FOR MORE.
