Robert Oppenheimer
So. Time to cut the “art” and get down to business.
OK – maybe just a little. These Gregorian Chants(TM) are still messing with my mind.
You see, caught between the Scylla of Hopium and the Charybdis of Nopium, or vice versa if you are so inclined to see them that way,
We have forgotten a great truth in this matter of something called “Q” or “QAnon” if you are so inclined to make any distinction that others may or may not make.
We have lost sight of the fact that there are many ways of rather spectacular
WINNING
which lie between and betwixt the various and sundry pronouncements of millions of people who, accidentally or very intentionally, but with mathematical and logical certainty, can be and must be JUST PLAIN WRONG about Q.
Let me state that again.
WINNING with Q
is in some ways rather orthogonal to almost every known or knowable about it, in the same way that
THE OTHER SIDE
constantly wins on lies, half-truths, and unknowns
only in our case
the INNOCENT believed or did not believe INNOCENTLY
and
the GUILTY believed or did not believe MALICIOUSLY
and thus we are left with a
FINE AFTERMATH
FINE AFTERMATH
which now needs only some clean-up to find
qarm-Ag-eddon
or
Qarma-geddon
or
some linear combination thereof
.
There are two classes of enemies right now. Those who know that I know a lot more than I am letting on and who understand what I am saying and are rightfully fearful of Qarma, and those who are still scratching their heads.
Let’s ask some questions with wildly varying answers, but which answers, when viewed as COHERENT SETS that make sense together, fall like Qbits into beautiful interdependencies that all pretty much spell the same thing.
What did or does Mike Flynn know about the REALITY of/behind QAnon?
What did or does CNN and/or CIA know about the REALITY of/behind QAnon?
What did or do Mike Flynn’s RELATIVES know about the REALITY of/behind QAnon?
How highly is/was Q/QAnon and/or understanding of it ACTUALLY classified?
How much of that was real, phony, or one pretending to be the other?
Who or what was really responsible for Q/QAnon?
Who or what did media and DNC members say was really responsible for Q/QAnon?
Who in government actually has/had classified knowledge related to Q/QAnon?
[A list of thousands of similar questions.]
…..and now some final questions……
What is the likelihood that Mike Flynn knows the answers to these questions but CNN does not?
How bad is it for CNN if ONLY Mike Flynn knows the answers to these questions?
How bad is it for CNN if BOTH Mike Flynn and CNN know the answers to these questions?
Because
What are the answers most likely to be in either case?
You see, none of these questions even gets to the silly ones that WE innocent believers or disbelievers in Q all ask, and yet they are all CRITICAL in predicting the outcome of any lawsuit like this.
Now, before you go off to ponder the winning that falls like manna upon the innocent from these questions, and the qarma that falls like sodomandgomorrahincinerating weaponry upon the guilty – whoever and wherever they are – let’s read that article in its near-entirety, shall we?
GOOD.
And let’s just follow that up with THREE LINKS from the article, for your convenience:
it would not surprise me at all if that CNN video tweet I have pictured there “disappears due to technical or legal reasons” at some point, so look at it NOW if you want to see it before it’s hidden.
To think for even a microsecond that the election-stealing cabal of assholes who monitor this site and pretend to be “national security” and “QAnon” experts of any kind, while they FLEECE the tax-paying people of this great country for all their funding, and are about to be BURNED by a righteous leak in their PIG-SLOP TROUGH for a minimum of 75 million in
– I’m sorry – it just puts a SMILE on this wolf’s face.
Silver-tongued Wolf, distantly related to Doge.
NOW – I could sit here and get specific about WHERE in their pig-slopping trough that leak is going to form, but I will tell you right now that the election-stealing cabal of assholes who monitor this site and pretend to be “national security” and “QAnon” experts are going to have a lot of incentive for somebody else to get this thing settled, lest it become evident that they are now running their “make terror to fix terror” game on American citizens who actually care about this country more than they do.
And all of that kinda makes “settling” and “not settling” somewhat orthogonal to “winning” when the weighting of that linear combination of Qarma and Ag might be highly rewarding either way, and who knows where REAL PATRIOTS would settle along that axis, BARRing one more crooked judge toward which the crooks in question will surely be running in their special sneakers.
I mean – it’s not like I have to mention any NAMES here, do I?
Because, seriously. I’m sure Mike Flynn knew them a LONG time ago.
Smile for the cameras, Atlantis. Your MYTH shall grow.

We caught you sowing – we caught you reaping– what you are stealing – you won’t be keeping.
WARNING: This post is for CULTURE WARRIORS ONLY. You were warned.
INTRO
I thought about doing this post for a long time – maybe even before I started this site, which was back in September of 2018.
Then I actually FINISHED this post on September 14 of 2019.
And then I just let it sit in draft, for basically a year and a half. It just didn’t feel DONE, and people didn’t feel READY for it.
Well, today is DIFFERENT. I finished it up.
You see, NOW we read about “country rapper” Lil Nas X, who went from a novelty country song that nobody heard, to a video a few people saw, to a duet cover version with COUGH “father of Miley Cyrus” Billy Ray Cultural Marx… I Mean Billy Ray Cyrus, to an industry-self-congratulatory “CMA” award, to a guy in a cowboy hat with inverted crucifix earrings singing gay stuff to kids in some weird Disney deal, to…….
EVIL: Lil Nas X and MSCHF Release Nike Shoe Dedicated to Satan with a Pentagram and Human Blood in it – In a Limited Edition of 666 Pairs
Yeah. This is Country and Western on Chinese Fentanyl via Hollyweird.
OK. Let’s back up.
I KNOW that the issue of “country going downhill” is as old as country music itself. I mean, first there was ELECTRIC. And DRUMS. And ROCK. And OUTLAW. And…….
Yeah. Country changes. I get that. I LIKE that. SOME of the new stuff is really awesome, in that it actually mixes old root country with new interesting things. It reflects REALITY.
Country GROWS. Just like America. And beyond. That’s all good.
SIDEBAR: Kinda interesting that THEY chose to shoot up THIS guy’s concert.
THEORIES WELCOME.

And I even like some of the offbeat mutations. (Note, however, the CM on it.)

And sometimes country is just neat when it’s almost out of nowhere.
Hands off this song, you bluegrass liberals! This one is ours! It’s just “old timey”!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTmCfSFh_0A
And sometimes, the COOL of the MODERN just makes me think that I’ll trade in my truck for some of that “transhuman” crap RIGHT NOW if that PORT in the side of my head means that I get to listen to amazing stuff like this:
BUT…….
That ain’t what I’m talkin’ about.
I’m not talking about the MUSIC as much as the MESSAGES.
I’m talking about YURI BEZMENOV and DEMORALIZATION – which is SMART and much more subtle than just random issues of cultural modernization in country.
You have to wait for about 1 minute into this video to get to the point where Yuri explains psychological demoralization and how it works, as the first step of ideological subversion.
This is where my red lines are crossed – where country music is being POISONED. And those red lines are RELIGIOUS, CULTURAL and (to some extent) POLITICAL, going back to the undermining of basic morality.
I think I started to become AWARE of it under Obama, or maybe even under Bush, but when some Hillary PAC put out a country music song about CANKLES – well – GOOD LORD.
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THOSE WHO DIE OF LAUGHTER WATCHING THIS VIDEO
Yeah, that was bad. But it got worse. The friggin’ CIA got on country stations, saying not to vote for Trump….
Yeah, you’ll just have to imagine somebody saying something intelligent about CIA domestic influence ops, and me responding intelligently about lying Obama CIA deputy Mike Morell of Benghazi video fame showing up on iHeart Country Radio shilling for Hillary Clinton right before the 2016 election.
But freakin’ Choomer Rasputin….
Yeah – THAT GUY – deciding that you can’t hear this stuff. THAT is how desperate they were to get Trump out of office.
But LATELY, the manipulation of Nashville by Hollyweird colonists has gotten REALLY strange. Country songs have WEIRD MESSAGES that are straight-up VIRTUE SIGNALING to some unstated future manipulation agenda.
They’re actually half-messages – those Orwellian absolutes that mean nothing – not even nonsense. They’re unattached emotions declared “good”. They’re serious discernments declared “bad”. They are like lullabies to BABIES – to TODDLERS. “Love is good.” “Hate is bad.” They are “fallible truisms” – quarter-turns or half-turns to FULL ORWELL.
Sometimes they hint at where they will be applied politically, but often they are just generic virtue statements – to be applied later.
They aren’t even OLD TRUTHS – much less COMPLEX STORIES.
And STORY – that’s another story.
Let’s go back for a moment, for comparison. Back when the current forms of socialist politicization of country music were just getting started, under Bill Clinton, in the 90’s.
I didn’t see it then – or rather, I didn’t ADMIT TO MYSELF that it was happening then – but I can certainly SEE IT and ADMIT IT now.
There was a kind of “crypto-feminist story” country genre, in which liberal murder fantasies against “country boys” were fulfilled through aggrieved white women in virtue-signal-filled, plot-laden, country songs. that ended with dead white “bad guys” of unstated but ominous nature, who had “wronged” in various nebulous ways the women who needed to take vengeance – frequently the wife or daughter.
The BAD MEN were clearly abusers – but the songs were just ambiguous and poetic enough to make EVERY MAN GUILTY.
It was “Billie Rae Jack” – or GOD in her stead – killing the old white guys in radio format.
Of course, these songs always sounded GREAT, and I cheered along with their EXCITING PLOTS and ENERGIZING MUSIC – even though I knew that *I* was the guy who was gonna be killed by the wife or daughter for rolling my eyes at some giant tin chicken.
Sorry – couldn’t resist. We men have to stick together under these circumstances. *wink*
I miss Daughn. That’s how long ago I was writing this sucker.
Remember those? THOSE SONGS have been the LITMUS TEST that country women have had to perform to “get credibility”. THAT or similar “agenda” songs. Gotta do one of those. Ya know? Gotta PLAY TO THE AGENDA or the CAREER ain’t goin’ nowhere, babe. Can I call you babe?
*SPIT*
Now – I am going to WAKE YOU UP. Right now. FUTURE PROVES PAST.
I love Martina McBride, by the way. Not sure if her pixie face here is real or Photoship or whatever. This is nothing on her. This stuff is so smart, it flies past almost all of us. It weaponizes EVERYTHING WE LOVE and ONE TRUTH AFTER ANOTHER to sell a SOCIETY-CHANGING MYTH.
Go back and WATCH THIS. LOOK at ALL THE SYMBOLS and WHAT THEY SOLD.
Look at how they INVERTED EVERYTHING.
FUTURE PROVES PAST. It was pure psychology – smarter than almost ANYBODY.
Sorry – I have HAD IT with the cultural Marxist ABUSE of the entire country music lifestyle as a way to CHANGE US and DESTROY AMERICA.
So NOW THIS.
Jack Posobiec, doing some kind of penance for recent laziness, seems to be hitting them out of the park this last week.
ANYWAY – finally – I’m putting it all together. What’s happening to country and western music.
The WAR ON COUNTRY has been going on a long time, and they have snuck in so many ringers, dupes and chumps – IN THE BACKGROUND – that “country” is starting to sound – quite frankly – nothing like country.
But just like “it’s not the MUSIC – it’s the MESSAGES“, we have the same thing here – it’s not the FACES, it’s the WORDS.
They use OUR faces – people we can relate to. PEERS.
The RINGERS are in the BACKGROUND. It is the SONG-WRITERS and THOSE WHO PICK WHICH SONGS GET AHEAD who are the real brokers of cultural Marxism in country.
By the way – is there anything in country music similar to the highly skewed cultural Marxist virtue signal emporium known as the “Black List”? If there was, that would sure explain a lot.
This is presumably the SAME as in media, where it’s not the REPORTERS, it’s the EDITORS.
See how it works? The ACTIVE PUPPETS ALWAYS hide behind HUMAN SHIELDS.
So – let’s dig more deeply into the assault. And here is how I see things.
There are two main forms of cultural Marxism attacking country – GENDER-BASED and BEHAVIOR-BASED.
GENDER AND COUNTRY
First of all, before we even deal with what is left in the country music scene, is the EVACUATION OF BIG TALENT.
Notice how FEMALE EXEMPLARS LEAVING COUNTRY (by any means necessary, or even BEFORE going country) is actually a “thing”. It’s a MESSAGE.
They always move the biggest ones OUT, too. ALWAYS.
THAT is a MESSAGE. It is an ONGOING and EVER-LASTING RURAL PURGE.
Nobody becomes MORE COUNTRY. Only LESS COUNTRY.
Remember that girl, when she was just a girl?
Stay with me, boys! I know it’s rough. It’s HARD to look away.
Kinda funny the way they have changed the objects of attraction from sexually dimorphic types to “boygirl” and “girlboy” types. Well, it’s INTENTIONAL. That’s why it changes so fast.
They are REWIRING ATTRACTION.
They are DECOUPLING ATTRACTION AND BIOLOGICAL GENDER.
They are REDEFINING OUR SEXUALITY.
They are MUTATING both the objects of attraction and the objects of self-image. Isn’t that the way that TRANS KIDS works, too? They are deconstructing GENDER FIRST and SEX NEXT.
Wait until pushy, face-palm, forcible TRANS hits country. Trust me – TRANS-COUNTRY is coming, and DON’T YOU BE A “HATER”, cuz YOU YOURSELF sung the anthems against “hate”.
You see what I’m sayin’?
We have NO VOICE in this, unless we fight it tooth and nail. And you had better fight NOW.
So now let’s get to BEHAVIOR, which is where the self-immolating CABAL gets more of the winnings from THEIR side of the deal.
BEHAVIOR AND COUNTRY
Yeah, Miley Cyrus ain’t country, and maybe she NEVER WAS, but that’s not how it works psychologically. Her relation to her FATHER matters subconsciously to you like a HOSTAGE, and THAT IS WHY THEY CHOSE HER. She will always will be a country baby hung over Hollywood crocodiles, psychologically, and THAT is why they did what they did.
They’re DEMORALIZING YOU.
WE THE VICTIMS pretend that psychology doesn’t last one second after the commercial, when the reality is that this stuff lasts our WHOLE LIVES and they have simply LIED TO US about it. They LIED to us that we can “change the channel” and it all goes away.
DO. NOT. BELIEVE THEM.
WAKE THE HELL UP and cut your cable, because on PRIME TIME they don’t show this stuff, but they TALK about it in the background of FAKE NORMAL.
You will notice that EVEN in the “six-mega-hit mash-up” video there is a massive appeal to easy lovin’ in almost every modern country ballad. I remember when this would have been as controversial in country music as #MeToo was for liberals a year ago. Yes, it was consensual premarital sex, but it was still SEX OUT OF WEDLOCK.
Trust me, this itty-bitty beginning of omnipresent sex in country doesn’t sound bad, but these people want WHITE FOLKS to start filling up the Cloward-Piven welfare rolls, and THIS is exactly how to do it, along with FENTANYL – fronted by the CHICOM PUPPETS. First they normalize the baby daddy, and then they normalize kicking him out, and then they normalize him running around proving that he’s a man using his stolen AR-15 as the new country gang-banger.
Sound familiar, but NEW, FRESH, and EXCITING?
The reason I get ahead of THEIR plots is because I can write THEIR stories before THEY bring them to reality. Before they FORCE and SUGGEST those stories into existence.
If you can’t see this shit coming from a mile away, and you would like to JOIN ME IN THIS WAR, then I strongly suggest that you need to cut your cable NOW.
Don’t listen to their chaff stories. Listen to your own.
The next WORLD WAR ain’t gonna be fought with anything like the last two.
It will be fought by PREDICTING THE FUTURE.
Be there before they even think about getting there.
This article really gives some insight into the “mentality of musical credibility” that is being used to sneak satanism into Country & Western music. You can just see how a slow and steady program of patient manipulation uses the desire of white and black Americans to “get along”, and the semi-knowing naivete of selected C&W artists, to allow the satanists and Luciferians to sneak in their devilish tricks.
LOL. Good Lord. When George Clooney playing a Soggy Bottom Boy is more real as Country music than Country music….
I have been warning people about “taking money from China” for a long, long, long time, but I finally realized that this warning is best expressed in exactly the same TEMPTATION that China uses.
MONEY.
Here is the truth, expressed in MONEY.
All. Chinese. Money. Comes with a string attached. A TAX. And that TAX is WHATEVER THE CCP WANTS TO TAKE.
It’s as if there is a TAX on any profits you make in China, and that tax is GREATER – always – than the profits you were promised, more so the lesser profits you will actually GET, if you are LUCKY. You will have to get that tax money from OTHER PEOPLE. By cheating your customers, by losing your reputation, by helping create a Chinese competitor who will use YOUR intellectual property.
SOMEHOW you will pay.
You CANNOT get past this. China doesn’t ASK – it TAKES. And if you refuse, they take something else.
This tax is not something that goes away. It’s not something you can cheat BETTER than the CCP to get a leg up on them.
The ONLY way to WIN is to NOT PLAY.
Take, for example, the CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Remember when the CoC was regarded by almost all people as a LEGITIMATE VOICE OF CONCERN whenever they WERE in fact “concerned”? Remember when people worried about what the Chamber of Commerce said, rather than thinking “OK – the Chamber of Chinese Commerce In America is against it – so it’s good – right?”
The thing that REALLY clued me into the power of Chinese money to OWN people, was the way that HOLLYWOOD was essentially lost to China.
Who does THAT? Who suckers HOLLYWOOD? Man alive, talk about GIFTED! That is criminal genius!
I have covered Hollywood and the CCP before, and that picture is not pretty.
A short bibliography on Hollywood, caught between the Scylla of China-backed cultural Marxists here in America, and the Charybdis of Chinese CCP-taxed investment money – a WHIRLPOOL of destruction where all bucks flow to CHINA.
I’m going to make a list of four important points about Hollywood – (which was to a large extent ideologically molded by communist RUSSIA, and is now significantly owned by communist CHINA, although being uniquely developed by AMERICAN communists) – and elaborate on those four points for your interest. Remember – this is from the …
It was the MOMENT that I realized that we are dealing with DEGRADATION of Western symbols…. That we are being forced to DEGRADE THEM OURSELVES…. That it is being done using RACIAL REVENGE as a psychological subtext…. And it was ALSO being done using SEXUAL REVENGE as a psychological subtext…. That REVENGE is a form …
Perhaps you remember my last column on Chinese Communism’s insidious cultural attack on America through Hollywood. If not, then here it is for your background consideration: Why I Believe That Chinese Communism is Raping Western Symbols And Must Be Punished by Tariffs on Hollywood Investments It was the MOMENT that I realized that we are dealing …
Do you remember the movies “Walking Tall” and “Billy Jack”? Do you also remember the hundreds of “me too” movies…
Ultimately, it sometimes seems like TRUMP is the only person who has a CLUE how to play hardball in a game where the CCP actually plays hardball, but will let everybody else pretend it’s softball all day long.
That is how the CCP’s overwhelming, smiling, lying, SOFT POWER works.
It is VERY instructive to look at all the victims of the CCP, and simply say “maybe I’ll do something other than what they did.”
Hollywood not only cannot contradict China – it can’t even TALK about China, except in approved ways. Worse still, Hollywood has to accept “instruction” from idiotic cultural radicals in America, who are BACKED by China, and who would be CRUSHED in China, but who force Hollywood to contradict AMERICA, insuring Hollywood’s alienation from its core market, until – yeah – who does Hollywood serve?
However, if you REALLY want to see the TAX extracted by China, look no further than CHINA JOE and his weak, pathetic, demoralized, mind-controlled administration.
You’ve seen the news – the DRESSING DOWN that Biden’s State Department nebbish received from China.
To say the first major diplomatic summit between the United States and China was an unmitigated mess would be an understatement. Apparently U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken thought it would be of value for the domestic audience if he was to lambast the Beijing delegation in public and on camera. His efforts were a complete fail as the Chinese knew everything was presented for domestic consumption… so, the Red Dragon threw fire right back onto the purple hair and obviously stunned an unsettled U.S. Secretary.
This is NOTHING. This isn’t even the BEGINNING of the TAX that the Biden administration will pay to China for its little Dominion hoax to make sure that the little Democrats got their little White House.
CHINA. SCORED. BIGLY.
The Democrats were almost over a barrel with the GOP and Trump.
Now, the Democrats are completely over a barrel – NAKED – with China in control.
To understand where we are at, it’s very helpful to take an hour and enjoy some “Fake Entertainment” from Hollywood, when it was on a “demoralization” kick, and one of the later incarnations of “The Outer Limits” was making a fairly prophetic statement, in a 1996 episode about tyrannical geopolitics dressed up as science fiction, called “The Deprogrammers“.
I warn you – even the demoralization-loving LEFT thinks this episode is depressing. Watch at your own risk.
The Mao Jackets – the sullen workers – the haughty and oppressive aliens living in luxury over the masses – it’s all there except – OH WAIT – yes – COVID-19, or at least the aftermath, even makes a cameo appearance!
There is a line at about 56:00 minutes into the show that is straight out of the China Virus. The word “jollem” is a disparaging term for humans, who are all slaves to the aliens.
“Jollem aren’t allowed to touch anybody! EVER!”
Yeah. That is EXACTLY where we are at. One would almost think the people behind this show had a direct line to the future to plant this stuff.
Or maybe the predictive programming knew exactly what it needed to get us used to – I don’t know – for some weird reason that maybe we discover eventually.
You have GOT to see the video I’m going to show you.
It’s not just what they’re talking about. It’s WHERE IT LEADS.
Most of the people who watch Rand Paul go after Fauci here, are concentrating on MASKS, because that is the TOP LAYER of the argument. But THAT is the small potatoes.
Rand Paul distracted Fauci to defend masks, while introducing DEVASTATING truth about variants and immunity.
Rand was not only opening up basic questions about what we should be doing in terms of allowing the immune to “bring us back to normal” in terms of wearing or not wearing masks – he exposed a SCAM being pulled by the left, in which they NEED to push humanity to a Marek’s Disease dilemma, as part of forced dependence on government, and thus to lock in socialism. I will explain that part below.
Because COVID-19 is constantly mutating, AS IT HAS FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, variants are naturally causing the new infections, AS THEY HAVE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING – important – AS THEY HAVE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING – but Rand Paul is showing a deep truth of the results that Fauci is trying to hide – that “of course variants take over” – but that does not mean that people who have been vaccinated or recovered from EARLIER VERSIONS of the virus don’t have real immunity that should be letting them return to their normal lives. Just as we always used to do, and always did, with all other colds and flu.
See? It basically boils down to NORMAL vs. WEIRD NEW UNNECESSARY NORMAL.
You can see Fauci RUNNING from this and DISSEMBLING in every possible “smart” way.
Indeed, Rand Paul is hinting at the truth, and you can see Fauci hiding it. The disease seems to be becoming a NORMAL COLD AND FLU BUG to the vaccinated and recovered, once it is no longer novel. And Fauci absolutely CANNOT SAY THAT. He has to try to make us see the glass half empty, by sleight of hand, to make us focus on the SCARY VARIANTS and not the CURED PEOPLE.
It is SO SLICK. You can see that little MAFIA TWERP trying to evade, but no – he CANNOT.
Because YES – we AS A WHOLE are becoming immune, and the disease is no longer a huge threat – most of all to those who have recovered or been vaccinated.
That is, as long as we don’t do something STUPID like making it more virulent – like we did with Marek’s Disease.
And I’m pushing it even beyond THAT, because it seems to me that Geert Vanden Bossche is correct about the possibility of a Marek’s Disease outcome. It sure looks like the globonazis are “accidentally” doing the wrong thing – which will end up making all humans addicted to a vaccine by PUSHING the variants to greater infectiousness and virulence by the very act of mass vaccination using inefficient vaccines.
In this open letter I am appealing to the @WHO and all stakeholders involved, no matter their conviction, to immediately declare such action as THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY OF INTERNATIONAL CONCERN. Please read and share: https://t.co/0Fupw9JInP#COVID19pic.twitter.com/I24mSjpVKM
Only I’m saying it’s not accidental. I’m saying that they want us REALLY dependent on the vaccine (see Marek’s Disease), but to get there we have to FAKE IT to make people take the vaccine for a relatively harmless pathogen NOW.
Which is to say, Aubergine’s razor.
Are you with me?
Maybe not?
OK – there is a lot to unpack there.
Let’s START from the beginning.
Rand Paul Nails Fauci
This is a great link with a TRANSCRIPT right here. If you want to READ the exchange, go there.
First, listen to Fauci start off with “I don’t understand….” – LIAR. Fauci immediately tries to lead away from the IMMUNE to the UNINFECTED.
This is extremely disingenuous. You can tell exactly what Fauci doesn’t want to do. He does not want any exceptions in the policy. He wants people obeying mandates.
This is where, as a recoveree FORCED to wear a mask DESPITE both IMMUNITY and HYPOXIA, I am SO PISSED OFF at all these mask martinets with their muzzle mandates.
In their ZEAL to vaccinate, people like me have been THROWN UNDER THE BUS.
So Fauci pretends to not understand. MAMET PRINCIPLE AGAIN.
So what does Fauci do? Rather than answer the question – “WHAT STUDIES CAN YOU CITE?” – which of course he cannot do – he THROWS A STRAWMAN at Rand Paul, and says “the studies you are talking about…” – WAIT A MINUTE – what studies is Rand talking about? He’s NOT. He’s asking YOU, Fauci, for studies in support of YOUR recommendations.
Then Fauci tries to shut up Rand Paul – gets him to back off a bit – and pivots back to SCARY VARIANTS, and the South African results from the Johnson+Johnson trials – with which I’m actually familiar.
Rand Paul actually NAILS Fauci on something I missed.
The J+J results tested people for antibodies – NOT CLINICAL SICKNESS. This is KEY. This is absolutely freaking KEY. We tend to forget that we MEASURE what we ACTUALLY MEASURE – not what we often THINK we’re measuring.
The J+J serological results, obtained in the course of vaccine trials, looked at whether people had antibodies to different variants at various stages in the testing, and included BOTH vaccine and placebo groups. Novavax also tested in South Africa, and also got interesting results. But the fact is, these were not tests for disease – they were tests for ANTIBODIES. And the results Fauci is talking about were BYPRODUCTS of the study. They weren’t even the POINT of the study.
This just blows up everything Fauci is saying.
Fauci is a hypocrite and a jerk. One the one hand, he DISMISSES clinical testing cases in hospitals for hydroxychloroquine, where LOGIC – PURE LOGIC – can tell you that something is WORKING FOR TREATING DISEASE – because THAT is what you’re actually measuring – but Fauci will dismiss it as not being “placebo, double-blind”.
Or worse still, Fauci ignored the “Lancetgate effect” – a statistical proof of DEATH on a societal scale when HCQ was withdrawn – showing the BENEFIT of hydroxychloroquine on a NATIONAL SCALE.
Yeah. Fauci loves statistics on a tiny, ancillary, and potentially mistaken scale, but when it’s BIG and STARK and says the wrong thing – well – then he just IGNORES them.
So what we’re talking about Fauci ignoring are studies of REAL DISEASE – not just antibodies in the blood – and LOGIC is fully operant on the results – but that’s no good for Fauci because “no placebo” and “not double-blind”.
BUT YET – here we see Fauci talking about MERE HANDFULS OF PEOPLE GETTING ANTIBODIES to the new South African variant, both having HAD the prior version, and NOT having had any prior version. That’s all it was. A mere BLIP in a much larger population of tested people.
But that is ALL YOU MEASURED – antibodies in people who walked in the door – and yet Fauci EXTRAPOLATES THIS to disease, and “no protection”.
And it LITERALLY does NOT MEAN THAT. It only means what people were tested for. ANTIBODIES. It means that getting new antibodies happens, when exposed to a new version, whether you had an old version or not.
WHOOPEE!
Now I see why people don’t think much of Fauci. He sees PROCESS and BUREAUCRACY as TRUTH. He doesn’t see the big picture – STOPPING DISEASE. Yet Rand Paul does.
Wow. Just blown away. Mikovits is right. This guy is a PROBLEM.
MOVING ON.
So here’s what happens next. Rand Paul pushes the fact that we have NO hospitalizations or deaths for people who have recovered or been vaccinated. He confronts Fauci with this. What does Fauci do? He IGNORES the question – IGNORES the challenge – and sticks to “you’re not listening” and “variants and wild type”.
Just as an aside, Fauci is helping his ChiCom buddies by calling the original version “wild type”, when it was anything but “wild”, but THAT is Fauci to the core. Evil little RAT. Bat soup, Fauci! BAT SOUP! You believe that crap?
Buzz off, Fauci, you little demon! LOL. Good grief, I hate people who abuse science like this evil gnome.
Sorry – the guy just makes me burn. “Wild Type”! Bullshit! This thing started mutating so fast, it was wild for about 5 people.
SPIT!
So Rand Paul hits Fauci AGAIN with no significant hospitalization or death, and Fauci AGAIN circles back to variants, and says we have “no variants in this country”.
Now THAT is a flat out lie. FLAT. OUT. LIE.
There is an AWESOME website called NEXTSTRAIN.ORG which has phenomenal analysis of the mutations of viruses, and has been on top of COVID-19 coronavirus mutations from the very beginning.
And I mean VERY beginning.
The site is very up-to-date as well. For example, here is the evolution of SARS-COV-2 as of this very moment:
I was looking at Nextstrain from the VERY beginning of this thing. There were country variants ALL OVER the world IMMEDIATELY, and they were spreading to other countries as fast as PEOPLE WERE.
Let’s look at the situation right now. We don’t have variants?
YOU LIE!
This is what Fauci looks like when he lies. Keep it for reference.
And this is what he’s lying about.
Oh, but it gets better – look how variants were emerging from the very beginning:
So no – do NOT tell me that we don’t have any variants, Tony Fauci, you MEALY-MOUTHED GARDEN GNOME.
At that point, Rand Paul just launches into a barrage of truth. JUST LISTEN TO HIM. He is so spot on with the idea of giving people a REWARD for getting the vaccine.
Now – some Democrat chickie-poo comes in and tries to rescue Fauci – who does his best to lie his way out, saying that Rand Paul’s statements are only true about the “wild type” and not the variants. We may get into the possibility that the first “allegedly stronger variant” showing up in South Africa……
…..may be a product of more ChiCom shenanigans, as a propaganda ASSIST to the AmeriCommies and the COVID COMMIES such as Fauci – but let’s just leave that possibility aside for now.
Fauci simply cannot consider letting off on what appear to be IMAGINARY lack of protections of the recovered and vaccinated, even though there is no evidence to suggest that they are not actually protected.
WHY? Why persist in keeping people fearful, and ready for that next vaccine?
I believe it’s because they have a reason.
Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche’s Warning
Here is the text of his letter which you saw on Twitter above.
I personally like his video better – this interview – but it’s a long listen.
https://youtu.be/YtHfI00D_s4
Now – this guy does not spell out the possibility that we could end up with a situation EXACTLY like Marek’s Disease – but others have, because that is ONE of the “better” outcomes of what GVB is talking about.
Yeah – it could be WORSE than Marek’s Disease. But THAT is bad enough.
Here is the internet explanation of the “better” Marek’s outcome, where we are ALL dependent on a vaccine we would not have needed if we HADN’T over-vaccinated – but at least the vaccine keeps us from dying.
Here is the excellent Wikipedia description of that disease.
So – are you feeling a bit of overload at this point?
I suggest getting a drink, coming back, and listening to the NEXT GUY.
Del Bigtree’s Antibody Explainer
I am not actually a fan of this guy – but JUST because of his wonderful “football playbook” method of explaining Geert Vanden Bossche’s point about the virtue of general antibodies over specific antibodies under certain circumstances, I really have to recommend watching this.
Del Bigtree has followed this subject (vaccines for a while, and while he’s generally on the “opposite side” from me (with Del being generally opposed to vaccines), he clearly understands what GVB is saying, and makes it very easy to understand.
Between Rand Paul’s excellent questions about WHEN we should call “OVER” an overreaction to a “novel cold and flu” that was masqueraded to us as a pandemic to falsely elect Joe Biden…..
Between Anthony Fauci’s dissembling, his evasions, and his flat-out lies, to support policies which have only the trickiest and most misleading grounding in science or reality….
Between Geert Vanden Bossche’s disturbingly simple question of whether our vaccines are actually DRIVING the evolution of new and potentially increasingly dangerous variants of COVID-19…..
And between Wolf Moon’s suspicion that the “South African variant” may actually be the product of more perfectly timed Chinese bio-adventurism…..
It would behoove us to ask whether we are on the right track with mass vaccination of a NEW FLU.
Because if we’re NOT on the right track, then “my vaccine” may not kill grandma – but it could very well kill the grandkids.
And that’s not nice.

“Truth is the norm of logic. Correctness in thinking is the normal means to reach truth, which is the conformity of thought with things as they are—with reality.”
It’s Friday and Wolf’s Pub is open for business. Thank the good God. Who the heck couldn’t use some camaraderie at the pub and a good stiff drink?
It’s been a hard week for some of us. Vaccine mayhem, sick pets, blizzards, car trouble, hospital stays, to mention a few. But we made it through and now we fortify ourselves and get ready for whatever comes next in this wild world.
HOLD THE LINE
There are times in history when the world runs particularly mad. This is one of them. We’ve been urged to HOLD THE LINE, so let us link arms and face down the madness together.
One of the best tools we can have in these times is the ability to utilize LOGIC, which according to “The Trivium” by Sister Miriam Joseph, C.S.C.., Ph.D., is “the art of thinking.”
The Trivium is a classical term denoting three of the seven branches of the Liberal Arts (and we aren’t talking Queer Gender Studies here) that make up both the Trivium and the Quadrivium. We are going to focus on one part of the Trivium, LOGIC, but the other two parts are GRAMMAR (the art of inventing and combining symbols”) and RHETORIC (the “art of communication”).
Yes, we are going to utilize the tools that have stood Western Civilization in good stead for many centuries. I think it was mostly white men who discovered and codified this SUPERIOR way of learning but let us not enrage any lurking BLM Marxists too much…yet.
The propaganda below is evidence of the lack of reason, logic, and critical thinking that is endemic in our culture right now:
You see, comrades, giving THEM any way of showing proof or giving examples is verboten.
LOGIC: THE ART OF THINKING
You may have noticed that people are having a great deal of trouble reasoning nowadays. They have fallen victim to inferior education, indoctrination, their own emotions and foibles, fear, intimidation, celebrity culture, etc. Clear thinking has gone out the window.
Violent Antifa riots are called “mostly peaceful protests.” Black Lives Matter calls white people racists based only on their skin color. Simply being born white is an offense.
People with gender dysphoria are encouraged to undergo surgery rather than consider the historical and emotional causes of such illnesses.
Indeed, the time has now come when the plain provable, scientific facts of biology are officially refuted in order to maintain a political narrative that seeks to overturn the existing order. The madness is such that it is now suggested children be given a cocktail of puberty blockers in order to first discern and choose their sex, gender being the term for sex now, rather than its traditional grammatical function of feminine or masculine in language usage.
The globalists and Marxists who seek to wrest power from the citizens have embarked upon the familiar tactic of overturning the foundations upon which our political system exists, even our understanding of REALITY.
We are experiencing a satanic rebellion. Mankind has seen it before. This is nothing new.
There was another time in history in which the same kind of mass insanity held sway, and that was the French Revolution (one can also add the Russian revolution and other such events). The will to power, rather than truth and the legitimate seeking of redress for wrongs, takes hold of those who let rage, envy, greed and violence fill their minds.
Cunning. Clever. Predictable.
It’s enough to make you want to drink. 😊 Let’s!
Today’s special is the Texas Two-Step, or in more common parlance, a Boilermaker. A shot of whiskey and a beer. Here’s a bit of history about the Boilermaker. Fta:
“Stories are murky at best as to how the boilermaker first came into existence, but it’s pretty clear that the drink was originally consumed by blue collar workers at the end of a long shift – which is why it’s now become the shift drink of choice among bartenders. It’s believed the drink takes its name from the workers who built and maintained steam locomotives in the 1800s. These workers were known to head to the bar at the end of the shift, and a shot of whiskey with a beer became a staple for quickly easing the pain that came from a hard day of back-breaking labor. As it was the drink consumed by boilermakers, it took on the name as well.”
I’m going to feature this Irish whiskey that DePat suggested in a comment the other day.
I just happened to be down in the metroplex and picked up a bottle of Powers Irish Whiskey (do read their introduction. I swear I could hear an Irish brogue emanating from the screen while I read it).
From their website:
“YOU DON’T LAST OVER 200 YEARS BY CUTTING CORNERS”
Powers Irish Whiskey
That could be said about the USA, too, eh? These damned commies just do what they want and cut corners, like ignoring the rule of law and the will of the people.
Back to the Boilermaker. DePat, I just love you. Powers is one of the most delightful whiskeys I’ve ever tasted. From Cork, where my husband’s family history hails, it has firmly supplanted his current favorite (which I will not name out of an abundance of respect for it).
However, Powers has a light refinement to it that is reminiscent of some of the best whiskeys. Looking forward to trying all three types.
I paired it with Guinness, which was NOT MY CHOICE. I would’ve gone with a lighter beer, but sometimes you have to let your better half do what he’s gonna do. That said, it pairs up pretty darn well.
Now, there are several ways of drinking a Boilermaker. Back in the day, lo these 40 years ago, we did it as this fine fellow does in the video below. He’s a hoot.
Let us raise our glasses to DePat and her sweet pup. God keep them together now and in eternity.
HOUSE RULES
Before we get much further, this eminently annoying but much needed reminder: let us down our Boilermakers in a spirit of true brotherhood. We might disagree—strenuously—but we are patriots. And we stick together like glue. Rules here.
The bouncers are happy to direct you to the Utree if you feel the need to boil over. Besides being a release valve, the Utree is also another place to gather in case something happens here.
HOW TO LIVE
Circling back to LOGIC (Red Jen just saw what I did there) here’s another quote from The Trivium:
“The utilitarian or servile arts enable one to be a servant—of another person, of the state, of a corporation, or of a business—and to earn a living. The liberal arts, in contrast, teach one how to live; they train the faculties and bring them to perfection; they enable a person to rise above his material environment to live an intellectual, a rational, and therefore a free life in gaining truth.” Sister Miriam Joseph
Sister Miriam Joseph
“…a free life in gaining truth.”
That is the crux. How does one live “a free life in gaining truth” when all around us is lies? Our pastors lie to us. Our government lies to us. Academia lies to us. The Press lies to us constantly. Business lies to us. Big Pharma lies to us.
I think freedom comes from “conformity of thought with things as they are—with reality.”
Let reality order our thoughts:
There are two sexes: Male and Female. The biological reality of that fact is not negated by surgery or saying differently.
Calling white people racist on the basis of their whiteness…is RACIST.
Wearing a mask is largely an exercise in virtue signaling or servile compliance, or is worn by POWs in the global war on freedom.
Experimental vaccines are not a panacea for fear of death from a virus that over 99% of us would survive anyway.
Sending your children to the public schools and expecting they will be the very few who are not affected by communist/globalist indoctrination, is unrealistic.
The 2020 election was stolen from the American people.
No one man is adequate to saving a country from revolution.
Evil ideologies flourish anywhere they are given a foothold, including the United States of America.
In a world full of lies we must stand for the truth, for REALITY.
It may cost us dearly. The path of revolution very well might have to come full circle. Let those of us who make it through be ready pick up the mantle of reason and rebuild. We owe it to our posterity.
Resources to teach ourselves and others how to think:
And just for fun, The Scarlet Pimpernel with Leslie Howard and Merle Oberon. You get a Hollywood taste of the French Revolution, but it’s still a great film.
Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation;
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: ‘In God is our trust!’
O’er the land of the free, and the home of the brave!”
Francis Scott Key
Welcome to Wolf’s Pub! It’s Freemen Friday and today we fight.
They aren’t going to win. They think Might makes Right.
“Let us have faith that right makes might; and in that faith let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it.”
Abraham Lincoln
The globalists and communists picked a fight with the Real America this time around. They have gone all in. It’s winner take all. But we are freemen and we hold the lantern of liberty aloft.
Remember us? We love our homes, we are loath to fight unless forced to it, we HATE having our blood and treasure spilled in foreign lands. We HATE cancel culture. We HATE that they seek to divide us, that they tax us without representing us. We just wanted to be left alone to pursue our lives, our liberty, and our happiness.
We know that they have sold out to China and other foreign nations for filthy lucre; that they do not honor their oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. They have installed a senile old pervert in the White House, which shows their contempt for this great nation and its people.
They are comfortable in their positions of power. They probably even feel justified in all they have done to destroy our great republic. Theirs is a “high and lonely destiny” to quote Uncle Andrew in The Magician’s Nephew, a book I highly recommend to any of them left with a modicum of conscience.
But I also know this: evil ideologies and those who carry them out always lose in the end. I don’t know what, when, where, or how, but I do know that evil has a limited lifespan and it will be defeated. It is inherently self-destructive.
Wild bergamot is the herb that is the featured image above. I was out in my garden yesterday and noticed that the bergamot was peeking through the dead growth from last year. The Dark Winter we went through did not kill it. It is coming back thicker than ever. And so will America.
And I further know that it will be God who defeats this evil that bedevils our nation. He will use Gideon’s three hundred, but it will be God to whom the glory belongs. Glory to God in the highest!
House Rules
Before we go further, visit here to review the Rules. No friendly fire. We’re gonna stick together like glue, even when we disagree. Disagreements allowed, just keep it civil and buy each other a drink. You can catch more bees with honey than vinegar. Brawling only allowed at the UTree.
Speaking of drinks, today’s special is Jack Daniels, that iconic American bourbon.
Here is a video featuring patriotic drinks made with Jack Daniels whiskey. Scrumptious!
If you peruse the Jack Daniels website you will see that its history involves slavery. But we don’t cancel our history, we learn from it.

Battle Plans
“Oppressors can tyrannize only when they achieve a standing army, an enslaved press, and a disarmed populace.”
James Madison
I’ve noticed that alternative media is on the rise and beginning to come into its own. Important that we visit and support and SHARE WITH OTHERS. I’m compiling a list of these alternative sites and I’m going to share them with friends. So many of our fellow citizens continue to be stuck in the loop of the propaganda MSM.
Let us help free them with the help of a truly FREE PRESS.
I’m even thinking about printing up small cards with all these websites on them to pass out to people, to put on public bulletin boards and wherever they might do good. I guess I’m getting stuck on the “Kilroy was here” tactic. It was immensely successful.
Tools of the Trade for Patriots
Here’s some of my favorites. Please add your own in the comments, as I know I’ve missed a lot. The more we undercut the reach of the Fake News Media with true news and information, the faster we own them. And they will be ours. Oh yes, they will be ours.
Lin Wood, who has the Fight Back law website, is under attack (see here) for sharing a transcript of some pretty heavy stuff by a whistleblower. The communist/globalist cabal is going to try and commit lawfare on him. Let’s show them that we support and seek to protect our own. God keep you and bless you and make His face to shine upon you, Mr. Wood!
Monday was the anniversary of the great culture warrior Andrew Breitbart’s death. Twitter, in a fit of spite, took his account’s blue checkmark away the other day. He is still getting to them. Oh, it must give him a great sense of satisfaction to know that!
We have all seen this short video of Andrew. See that steel in his eyes? Yeah, that’s the Real America. That’s the America they will never defeat. We will never give in. We will never give up. We will win.
“The advantage in life, in business, and in wartime goes to the competitor that does not flinch and does not broadcast his game plan.” -Gen. Michael T. Flynn
As you know, I have always preferred to conduct my operations out in the open, as I find this conducive to honesty, honor, virtues of all kinds, and general decency. I find that secrecy breeds all sorts of counterproductive things. For this reason, I avoid email, DMs, PMs, and chats, and try to conduct the vast majority of my business and communication through posts themselves and comments here or on Gab.
HOWEVER – after January Sixth – and studying the aftermath of that day – I will be following General Flynn’s advice. I will begin by NOT FLINCHING. I will be keeping as much as possible of my GAME PLAN AGAINST THE PROGZIS secret.
You may see me discussing TACTICS and TACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS out in the open, as usual, but I will be concealing STRATEGY from the enemy. My sharing of strategy with you all will be on an AS NEEDED BASIS.
LET THEM LOSE – meaning SAYING NOTHING – will figure prominently in my public strategy.
I have applied this to Nancy Pelosi – now it applies to THEM ALL.
There are lots of reasons I’m about to shut up about what’s going to happen, but one of the biggest ones is simply this. Now this quote’s EXACT FORMS have a very RICH history, but let’s not get distracted by that. Quos Deus vult perdere, prius dementat. Those whom God wishes to destroy, he first …
Now – here are some TACTICS. Let’s begin.
Because the leftists routinely eliminate our best stuff from the internet using their censorship, here are MULTIPLE versions of the Flynn statement to overcome their ERROR OF CENSORSHIP.
This little clip is actually from – as nearly as I can determine – a longer video collage which celebrated the PARDONING of General Flynn by President Trump.
Here is that video.
https://youtu.be/3hwPnDjwEas
You will find that most of it – particularly at the end – is a compilation of hilarious Trump memes – BUT – from about 1:45 to 4:00 minutes, you will find a wonderful collection of Flynn quotations and sound bytes taken from speeches.
Now – THIS is where I began to see that there was great benefit in paying attention to Flynn’s thoughts, both general and specific. There was not only a lot of overlap with TRUMP – there was a lot of overlap with Q.
We aren’t hearing much from Q lately, are we? But let’s be honest with ourselves – should we?
Maybe not. But in the meanwhile, IMO, studying FLYNN is the next best thing.
It is very useful to jump to a COLLECTION of Flynn’s quotations, here, to see even MORE congruence of thought between Flynn and Trump, and Flynn and Q.
Again, you will find that Flynn has much congruence with Trump on many issues (though not, interestingly, all of politics), and this is WHY Obama and the others were so determined to remove Flynn as Trump’s NSC. Likewise, their taking out of Rich Higgins and Ezra Cohen-Watnick makes all kinds of sense now.
The left wanted NO “fall-back” on national security policy – or “national insecurity insanity” in my opinion.
This was especially true in terms of gaining clarity on dealings with radical Islam – that of which we were no longer even allowed to speak under Obama.
The point, however, is really much bigger than JUST radical Islam.
Flynn’s point is a direct contradiction of a leftist imperative – that THE PARTY controls what exists and what does not. Note that this applied DIRECTLY to THE STEAL. To the normie masses, addicted to the MSM, “Election fraud did not exist.”
And yet notice how they also controlled what DOES EXIST, too, and EVEN FOR US.
Notice how THE CREEP ALI AKBAR – that WICKED POS – came in and ginned up the CONTROLLED “Stop The Steal” movement, then HERDED IT to the Buffalo Jump. Yes – the communists control what “does exist” for us, too. Even if we don’t want to admit it.
It’s SOVIET. Flynn is careful not to STATE trap words like “Soviet” or “communist”, but he teaches essential ideas that cut to the heart of the matter.
This podcast is a beautiful explanation of EXACTLY WHERE WE ARE NOW – but seen right before it happened.
Flynn CORRECTLY identifies the COST of FAILURE to “Stop The Steal” – and we are LIVING IT right now. Everything that Sidney Powell said we needed to do – that Flynn warns about in this interview – that Patrick Byrne explained – and that WEAK GOPe CLOWNS SURROUNDING TRUMP allowed to happen, despite the warnings – it’s all coming true NOW.
SO – why do we now need to study General Flynn?
It goes back to the title: Let A Thousand Plans Blossom
Allow me to explain.
SO – we have all been “trusting the plan” – right?
But what exactly WAS “The Plan”?
Was it just the Q drops?
Was it the Q drops minus any “disinformation”?
Was it the Q drops plus every brainless thought about flimsy numerology?
Was it the Q drops plus every speculation seeded by leftists counter-operatives?
Was the plan something BIGGER than what we were shown?
Did the plan ever CHANGE?
Did the plan ever RUN INTO TROUBLE?
Was the plan something other than what it appeared to be?
Was the plan a TRUST OPERATION?
Was the plan a TRUST OPERATION fought into a BACKFIRE?
Was the plan a FAITH OPERATION overplayed by the enemy into a TRUST OPERATION?
Now – I only asked that, so that you might realize that we ALREADY differed in what we thought “The Plan” actually was, while President Trump and Q drops were a CURRENT THING.
It has only gotten more ambiguous now that all the sliding goalposts have slid into the sea, somewhere off the coast of Syria.
But now I want you to consider something which EVERYBODY in the military quotes. It is often attributed to Colin Powell, but it is in fact a much older quote.
It is my contention that, no matter what you think “The Plan” either WAS or IS, it has CHANGED along the way. Unless you believe that GENERALS are wrong about plans surviving contact with the enemy, then you should likely agree that we are now dealing with a tactically different plan than what we were operating under, in October of 2017 – or even October of 2020.
Allowing plans to change – what Trump calls “flexibility” – speaks to a very important idea – something Trump doesn’t just HAVE, but also TEACHES – mostly by example. I once called it “Trump gravity”, but I think the more general concept is ANTIFRAGILITY.
Here is a very important discussion I had with Grandmaintexas about this idea.
And remember this – ANTIFRAGILITY WORKS BOTH WAYS.
“The main goal here is to develop a new typology of adversaries and to zoom in on those who get stronger when engaged in strategic performance. The paper draws upon the concept of antifragility, popularized by Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his book Anti-fragile: The Things That Gain from Disorder. I argue that depending on their reaction to strategic performance, adversaries can be put on a spectrum from fragile to resilient, to antifragile ones. To keep the scope of the investigation reasonably limited, the paper focuses on the effects of strategic performance on the adversary’s military capabilities rather on his will to fight. The first category describes the adversaries whose military capabilities shrink as a consequence of engaging in strategic performance. The second category is reserved for those adversaries who are able to replenish their military capabilities to the original position after engaging in strategic performance. The last category describes those adversaries whose military capabilities increase as a consequence of taking part in strategic performance. These are, of course, ideal types and their manifestations in strategic practice are less clear-cut.”
That was a really great read. That is actually very helpful, and hopeful in that I can now use that as a strategic metric to understand how “The Plan” was corrupted by various forces to reduce its capabilities of “teaching us to fight”.
Q was in essence an antifragility builder, which scared the scheming left, so they figured out ways to reduce its effectiveness. But now, learning FROM those efforts, we can actually make some quantum leaps in gained fighting ability – which is prime antifragility.
Not all will see this, but that’s OK. Booster stage will fall away, but many will realize it, and make the leap to the next stage.
The JE Dyer article that GA/FL posted shows that this is huge. By simply not allowing this election to be normalized, EVERYTHING changes. And that gets into what Grandma is posting from Vox Day – antifragility – TEACHING US TO FIGHT.
We cannot learn to fight by assuming somebody else is going to rescue us. And this resolves all questions about Q, and what Q really was, versus what was inflicted on the movement in a very deep and cunning fashion.
We have to go back to the drops themselves (DP does this regularly), and recognize that there ARE forces which understand the predicament, but they are UNABLE TO ACT without us becoming both STRONG and ANTIFRAGILE.
Mere belief in our destiny will not do it.
Flynn is the key. We HAVE to study his military strategy – not to PARROT it, but to USE it and EXTEND it. In searching for some of it, I keep getting IKE back from search engines, because the neural nets understand the relationship. That goes back to THE PLAN, including the parts we have to GUESS.
Rich Higgins in essence extends Flynn by correctly identifying the Red-Green axis and getting out from under the inflicted paradigm of not realizing who is really behind terrorism – who the enemy really is. Flynn forces realization of who the enemy actually is and the absolute necessity of such identification.
We ARE doing this already – embracing the complexity of enemy identification in a complex world. But we cannot rely on others to do our fighting. We must capitalize on winning strategies, and most of all, we must take to heart Flynn’s advice from that telegram message.
One is just a repeat at the end – and is the first idea of this post – that we should not give our GAME PLAN to the enemy. And I’m not. I’ve been SITTING on a lot of great strategy for the last week or so. Stuff I would normally talk about. Now nowhere to be seen. Stuff that will RAIN HELL upon the enemy.
Yup. MAGA Mom is asking what the big strategy is.
Sorry – I’m NOT sharing it, because it’s gonna NUKE these commies. But I will give you TACTICS, like Michael’s little doozy here:
In the event of loss of comms, find something communist and break it.
A second idea is the VALUE of UNYIELDING REJECTION of the FRAUDULENT ELECTION. Note what Flynn said: “I do not believe for a second that our country will accept Vice President Biden as the next President.” Yeah. Every day is proving that the rejection of Trump by leftists was NOTHING next to the current REJECTION OF ZUCKERBERG’S FRAUD.
Yeah, the commies may have been louder and even violent in their rejection of Trump. But our silence toward this mockery of a president is DEAFENING.
And a third is this.
Gab and Parler were both prescient as free speech networks before they were desperately needed. But why is GAB still standing as REAL free speech, and Parler was not only deplatformed, but came back “throwing in the towel” on free speech, with AI shadowbans in place?
Torba has referred – correctly – to Gab as being both robust and antifragile. Antifragile is a GOOD THING. It enables a movement to SURVIVE.
So how do we make our plan ANTIFRAGILE?
BREAK IT FIRST – AND OUR WAY
For THAT, we’re going to BEAT MAO AT HIS OWN GAME.
❀❀❀❀❀ Let A Thousand Plans Blossom ❀❀❀❀❀
We often hear the phrase “let a thousand flowers bloom”, or something similar, which is roughly attributed to Mao Zedong, but is typically used in a more capitalist, business, organizational, or “free thought” setting in Western society. It is something like a “call for democratic input”.
Now – here is what WOLF thinks about Mao and his Hundred Flowers Campaign.
Mao was a weak thinker, but an admirably persistent psychopath, hooked down to his SOUL on the greatest ideology of HATE and ENVY to ever rise from the BOWELS OF HELL. The parallels to Obama are uncanny, and BLM has both Mao and Obama written all over it. Obama hides his Maoism well, but not from THE WOLF.
As a cagey player, Mao saw all the possible outcomes of 100 Flowers, including things beyond his reach, but because he was pursuing a WEAK and universe-failing version of socialism, which cannot admit the existence and role of “God” and religion – even as abstractions and ideals of higher thought – he was playing a game he could not win. The 100 Flowers stratagem almost HAD to default into a trust operation, because Mao was not a strong enough thinker to modify Marx’s elite-born “sabotaged socialism” to even a TRULY “Chinese” version, much less correct the intrinsic failings of a crippled, self-worshiping system that turns politics into a faulty religion.
You think the dead white men were idiots, commies? Your “dear leader” is barely cold in historical terms, and he fucked up so badly, firing from his quiver full of dogshit, that all he could do well was KILL PEOPLE.
But hey – we can fix that.
If Mao had the expansively emergent advantages of TRUTH as a basis, available to religious thinkers like Christ – or more significantly Buddha and Confucius in his case – he could have tolerated even the NON-CONSTRUCTIVE criticisms generated by 100 Flowers, and would have likely created something broken but still semi-unifying like Titoism, rather than the sequential failures that he did, with 100 Flowers first degenerating into the intellectually self-defeating Anti-Rightist Campaign, and then into the democidal Great Leap Forward, and finally into the ridiculous failure upon failure of the Cultural Revolution.
100 Flowers simply cannot work for the commies.
Well, hold our THOUSAND BEERS, commies, as we toss a THOUSAND GRENADES into YOUR PLANS.
The advantage of fighting from the downside is that everything in THEIR POWER is a target, and you don’t actually NEED a unified plan to bring it down.
Sorry – let me restate that. You don’t even WANT a unified plan.
Just take THIS:
In the event of loss of comms, find something communist and break it.
And ADD COMMS.
Find something communist, break it, and show others how.
Now ACCEPT THIS. Not everybody CAN or SHOULD follow your lead.
You want to WORK WITHIN THE SYSTEM? Be my guest.
You want to BRING THE SYSTEM DOWN? Be my guest.
You want to CONSTRUCT A PARALLEL SYSTEM? Be my guest.
BREAK COMMUNISM AND SHOW US HOW.
This is where I was starting to go earlier, with the idea that I’m not going to criticize what you’re doing, because it may work for somebody else. Even the hopium smokers NEED their hopium – let ’em smoke.
It is by us NO LONGER ALL BEING HOPIUM SMOKERS, THAT HOPIUM DREAMS MIGHT COME TRUE.
See?
We are BREAKING Q to make it ANTIFRAGILE.
EVENTUALLY – when enough of the REST OF US raise enough HELL HEAVEN, maybe their HOPIUM DREAMS COME TRUE, and “somebody” decides to act.
But until then, all we have to do is
FIND COMMUNISM AND BREAK IT.
Ironically, this is exactly what I’m doing here. 100 Flowers1000 Plans is not just taking communism’s FAILURE and broadcasting it – it’s beating them over the head with it – from every possible direction.
WE are actually “diversity-tolerant”. So why not use that STRENGTH to beat these fuckers to a PULP?
They are always looking for US to latch onto a cheap, easy, single strategy for THEM to counter.
Sometimes they even FEED THAT to us, like Ali Satan and his “Stop The Steal” trust operation.
STARVE THEM OF EASY OPTIONS.
Now – this is JUST TACTICS. It ain’t strategy.
Do I have one?
Oh, hell, yes, woman.

“Do not lose hope. Do not give up.” -General Flynn
And – in my opinion – that even includes that bottle of hopium-laced wine, made famous in this interview, near the end. Whatever you BELIEVE – whatever you TRUST – WHOEVER you trust – don’t give up hope.
No matter how this plays out, the best is yet to come. –Wolf
Friday is back at Wolf’s Pub, and it’s time for some battle Scripture before we get down to the Friday Night Special: Mead!
The Psalms are unmatched for inspiring us as we do battle with evil. A psalm a day keeps the devil away. And who couldn’t use a little inspiration right now?
Our President is currently deprived of his rightful office while a puppet is being jerked on his strings by the globalists and the CCP, and our freedoms are bleeding out upon the Dark Winter snow.
One of our champions, Rush Limbaugh, has died.
Parts of the country have been dealt a serious blow with winter weather that has strained to the limits the power grid. People have died from the cold in one of the most advanced and wealthiest nations in the world. This is unacceptable.
We have no idea how the SCOTUS will behave with the election fraud cases being heard today.
We are having to deal with the full realization of the treason that has taken our Republic and replaced it with a corporate political system that is for sale to the highest bidder.
We have been betrayed by our own, just as David was betrayed by Saul, and also by his own son, Absalom.
It is in this possible setting that David wrote Psalm 35.
I’m not going to do an exegesis of the whole psalm, but here is a link to it. I am going to concentrate on just the first verse, which when unpacked, will amaze and inspire you:
“Plead my cause, O Lord, with those who strive with me; Fight against those who fight against me.”
(Psalm 35, NKJV)
I also have a copy of the Art Scroll Tanach Series, Tehillim (Psalms) described as the “sacred hymnal of the Jewish People. I have benefited from the commentary of the rabbis who, naturally, are steeped in the subtleties and language that give great insight to every verse of Psalm 35. The description reads in part:
“The Art Scroll Series presents the comments of the classic giants of ancient and contemporary times in a logical, comprehensible manner, like a master teacher on an exciting voyage of intellectual discovery.”
I have found this to be true. The painstaking and deeply thought out commentary is rich beyond words for those who love God’s word. I highly recommend the Art Scroll Series for any Hebrew Testament book you seek to study. They are worth every penny and more.
Now here is the same verse from the Tehillim:
“To David: Fight HASHEM, my adversaries, battle my attackers.”
Hashem’s literal translation in Hebrew is “the name,” and refers of course, to God.
“Of David. O LORD, strive with my adversaries, give battle to my foes…”
Let’s unpack this one verse.
“Fight, HASHEM” is explained by one medieval rabbi, Radak, “as a command.” It’s possible meaning?
“Is it conceivable that a flesh and blood servant should order his master, “Go out and fight my enemies for me?’ Yet we find that the Holy One, Blessed be He, said to David, ‘You immerse yourself in Torah study and I will fight your wars.’”
(Art Scroll Series Tanakh Tehillim, p. 422.)
The Tehillim commentary goes on to link this with Moses in The Book of HASHEM’S wars, (Numbers 21:14),
“HASHEM said: ‘If you are [immersed] in the Book [of Torah study], then [your wars will become] the wars of HASHEM [and I, HASHEM, will fight them for you.]”
Isn’t that wonderful? If we immerse ourselves in Scripture study, God will fight our wars for us.
Next, we have “my adversaries.” The literal translation of this is: those who fight me. Likewise, “my attackers” has a literal translation: those who declare war on me.
Here the commentary makes an interesting observation. The attacks are one-sided. David is not attacking. He is being attacked.
“He does not say that he fights them, rather they fight him, but he does not reciprocate their hostility (Hirsch).”
(Art Scroll Tanach Series Tehillim, p. 422.)
According to one rabbi, if the adversary had been only one, such as Saul or Absalom, this would not have constituted a war, but a quarrel. However, because in both instances others joined with Saul and/or Absalom, “…the limited quarrel turned into a war. David refers to these outside interlopers as…literally those who declare war against me.”(Art Scroll Tanach Series Tehillim, p. 422.)
Here is the kicker:
“Midrash Chachamin suggest that the difference between these words may be understood in the light of the fact that every war which flares up on earth is evidence of a tremendous spiritual struggle between celestial forces representing each side. David asks that Hashem first vanquish his adversaries above…and consequently this will spell the doom of those who make actual war below…his attackers.”
(Art Scroll Tanach Series Tehillim, p. 422.)
Let’s just repeat that:
“Every war which flares up on earth is evidence of a tremendous spiritual struggle between celestial forces representing each side. David asks that Hashem first vanquish his adversaries above…and consequently this will spell the doom of those who make actual war below…his attackers.”
This brings to mind:
“Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” (Eph. 6:11-)
And this:
“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ…” (2 Cor. 10:3-5)
And this:
“We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed…” (2 Cor. 4: 8-9)
And indeed, Psalm 35 goes on in verse 2 to describe the taking hold of shield and armor, or as the rabbis interpret those words, as an encircling armor, denoting God’s full protection of David while his enemies are being destroyed.
House Rules
How comforting Scripture is and how merciful our God is towards us. And so let us try our best to be merciful to one another as we go about this day.

It’s Mead Time
Moving on to our drink special this fine Friday, let’s learn about Mead, that fermented honey drink that is known by almost every culture the world over. Here’s a fantastic video by Tasting History with Max Miller. There’s a fun, crash course in the history of mead, and a very simple recipe for making your own. I liked this guy so much I subscribed to his channel. This video about mead has nearly 950,000 views in just a few months.
If you aren’t into making your own (but really, I think we should all be preparing to make our own mead, wine and beer as well grow our own food and raise chickens and goats and so on) you can certainly find some mead at your local liquor store. I’ve provided a link that will take you to a surprising selection of mead and mead products. Some of them look a bit iffy, but it would be fun to try a few and see how you like it.
Tonight, we have a home fermented mead made by our dear bouncer, Hans. He makes mead like a Viking. Speaking of which, here’s a fun book titled “Make Mead Like a Viking,” by Jereme Zimmerman. A taste:
“As you’re coming closer to a state of Viking Zen, allow your mind to detach itself from your body and travel back to an ancient world of fire and ice in which mythology, magic, and reality were so intertwined as to be one and the same.”
And to get us to a state of Viking Zen, I present a Nordic lullaby, The Wolf Song:
Part of the battle we are fighting against the supremacist elites in all our institutions and in business, is the intended destruction of our heritage. Whether you are English, Irish, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, German, Welsh, Scots, Austrian, Polish, Hungarian, etc., the globalists seek to destroy your western heritage, especially Christianity. We must not allow it.
We must do everything we can to preserve our heritage. Literature is key. Remember the classic legends of the Norse gods? A reprint of this wonderful book (of a series of classic literature for young people) is a potent way to learn of our heritage. I have just begun reading this one to my grandchildren. You can purchase it here. There are three volumes out now.
I don’t know how much more of this book I can read, but here goes. Chapter 8 of Mitch McConnell’s memoir, “The Long Game” is titled ‘Love.’ It begins thus:
“It was my friend Julia Chang Bloch who had first suggested that I meet Elaine. I’d known Julia and her husband, Stuart, since I was a staffer for Senator Marlow Cook in 1969, and we had become close friends.”
Julia Chang Bloch
Mitch has been close friends with Julia Chang Bloch and Stuart Bloch since 1969. Mitch likes dropping names and I was intrigued about his two long-time friends. I had never heard of either of them, but they are obviously important to him. Besides Chao’s family and McConnell’s daughters, the Blochs were the only others present at Mitch and Elaine’s wedding in 1993.
I was intrigued with Chang Bloch because of an interesting snippet that has been repeated over and over in different articles about her and Elaine Chao.
In article after article, using virtually the same words, we are told that Julia Chang Bloch mentored Elaine Chao. It is mentioned as part of the background in many articles, a mere tidbit.
This is the only thing I could find, a sentence of her inclusion on a list of mentors for the magazine Women of Wealth or WOW:
“Julia is listed in World’s Who’s Who and in Donna Langston’s A to Z of American Women Leaders and Activists – she is one of only 147 women from U.S. history to make the list – and she was selected in 2011 by the American magazine Women of Wealth as “one of the nation’s top women mentoring leaders”.
A search at the website returned no results, however.
A Copy of Women of Wealth Magazine from 2013
I looked into Julia Chang Bloch and found she has had great success as a Chinese immigrant to the United States. You can read about her here and in an interview here. Here is some of her background from the Foundation she founded in 1998:
“A native of China who came to the U.S. at age nine, Ambassador Bloch grew up in San Francisco and earned a bachelor’s degree in Communications and Public Policy from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1964, and a master’s degree in Government and East Asia Regional Studies from Harvard University in 1967. She was awarded an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters from Northeastern University in 1986.
Ambassador Bloch serves on a number of corporate and non-profit boards, including: Asia Institute for Political Economy, the University of HK, the Atlantic Council, Council of American Ambassadors, US Asia Pacific Council, Meridian International Center, World Affairs Council, the Fund for American Studies, and Penn Mutual Insurance Co. She was elected as a Fellow to the National Academy of Public Administration and is on the Expert/Eminent Persons Register of the ASEAN Regional Forum, a member of the Woodrow Wilson Council, as well as Trustee Emeriti of the Asia Society, Honorary Member of the Board of Directors of the Friends Society of the Asian Division, Library of Congress, and Honorary Fellow of the Foreign Policy Association. A member of the Council on Foreign Relations and American Academy of Diplomacy, she also serves on the Edumasters International Advisory Committee and the Editorial Board of Berkshire Publishing Group’s Encyclopedia of China.”
Like so many Asians who immigrate to the United States, her family worked very hard and have attained a great deal of success. Her father was the first Chinese national to graduate from Harvard Law School.
Bloch was nominated as Ambassador to Nepal by President George H. W. Bush and served in that capacity after years of working in government.
In 2008 she also worked on Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign.
“USCET is unique among organizations involved in US-China relations in its focus on serving China’s scholars, professionals and future leaders with resources in concert with their own institutions. USCET projects build confidence, basic understanding, and trust between China and the United States through support for American Studies, Media Education, and American Governance programs at China’s leading academic and policy institutions. USCET helps China’s next-generation leaders understand American society in the context of the political, cultural, and economic forces that have given rise to America and its values..”
And,
“In the US, USCET works with over fifteen diverse academic partners, including Yale University, the University of Maryland’s Philip Merrill College of Journalism, American University’s Center for Congressional and Political Studies and the School of Communication, the University of North Alabama, and The Fund for American Studies. In China, USCET partners include the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), and more than 70 of China’s top universities through USCET’s American Studies Network and Media Education Consortium..”
Bloch has deep ties to China, as does Mitch’s wife, Elaine Chao. And we know that the Chinese Communist Party has infiltrated our educational, political, and corporate institutions through organizations that promote educational exchanges. Good info here, here, and here for a video panel discussing the issue of CCP infiltration of our institutions.
I kept digging for more information.
From https://infogram.com/how-the-ccp-seeks-to-control-america-1h0n25yo0lyrz6p
Julia Chang Bloch is listed as a contributor at The Globalist, but the only article that comes up authored by her is a 2003 article advocating for globalism through bilingual education and lots of studying abroad.
“Only study abroad and international exchange can connect people across boundaries. Only face-to-face dialogue can build understanding of cultural values, trust, confidence, networks and collaboration. And only international education can produce the leaders needed by the global knowledge economy—and the profound changes it will bring about.”
Networks, collaboration, international education, global knowledge economy, profound changes…
Goodness gracious.
She is affiliated either through speaking engagements, awards, fellowships, etc., at numerous organizations that promote globalist viewpoints, feminism, and various groups that couch social and economic thinking through the lens of race, and all the trigger points in between.
One of the board members on her US-China Education Trust, Kurt Campbell, has been named to Resident Biden’s administration. Here USCET congratulates Mr. Campbell on his appointment:
“Washington, D.C. – On January 25, 2021, Kurt Campbell, former Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs and former USCET Advisory Council member, assumed the position of Deputy Assistant to the President and White House Coordinator for Indo-Pacific Affairs on the National Security Council. The US-China Education Trust congratulates Kurt Campbell on his new role in the Biden – Harris Administration during this unprecedented time in US-China relations. We are grateful for Kurt’s service on the USCET Advisory Council and wish him success and the best of luck in his new role in the administration.”
For context, here’s a Powerline article detailing the Biden’s penchant for China sympathizers.
Moving on.
Here is Mrs. Bloch being interviewed on China Global Television Network, a State-owned television station, which has had numerous complaints against it for propaganda and worse.
There is some interesting exchanges in the 20-minute interview. In an opinion piece about the video interview, the author focuses on American discrimination against Chinese immigrants. This is a mantra. Mitch even pitches it about poor Elaine’s childhood when she was teased at school and her family terrorized by Halloween trick-or-treaters. He even goes so far at one point to lament that Kentucky is very ‘white’.
In this article at China Daily, Chang Bloch is mentioned as being part of the conversation but never quoted. Here is a quote however, from the person, Yang Xinyu, minister counselor for educational affairs at the Chinese Embassy in the United States, who did seem to be talking to Bloch:
“Calling educational exchanges ‘the fundamental power of the over-all relations between the two countries,’ Yang said cooperation is the only option for the prosperity of both countries and for addressing common challenges to all mankind.”
It is clear the Chinese feel educational exchanges to be extremely important to fostering cooperation (as in, “You will cooperate!”) and prosperity (as in, “You make us rich!”) between the United States and China. This is not just a feel-good nod of benevolence, and the Chinese emphasis on it is deeply serious.
If you read enough of these articles by Chinese nationals, however, you can see that the Chinese feel they have come of age. They look upon the United States as an unequal–as in lesser–power, and their own problems with cultural superiority come shining through.
The Feminists. UGH.
Further on, I found an article that is boilerplate feminism. A puff piece about the husbands of women ambassadors, Mr. Bloch duly introduces himself as “Mr. Julia Chang Bloch,” and the article finishes with the obligatory story of how the diplomats spoke to the men and not the actual ambassadors about important things. Mrs. Bloch said, “I guess we will just have to work this out,” to her husband.
After her careers in government and business, Chang Bloch turned her focus to education.
“In 1998, Julia resigned from the board of America West Airlines. In the same year, Peking University – China’s oldest modern university, consistently ranked in the top 50 universities worldwide – asked her to rebuild its American Studies Center. She became Executive Vice Chairman of its American Studies Center and a Visiting Professor at the Institute for International Relations. In 2001, she also joined Fudan University in Shanghai as a Visiting Professor and Distinguished Adviser of International Relations and Public Affairs.”
Cultural Marxism and dissing Milton Friedman! The article is full of globalist pap:
“The most unpleasant part of the job was my having to remove my predecessor. He had been a banker all his life, and he was a follower of Milton Friedman’s doctrine that “the social responsibility of business is to increase its profits.” He took the fall, but no one at the bank saw any problem in supporting the Boy Scouts, America’s largest private youth organization. But in San Francisco, known as the “Gay Capital of the US,” politically active LGBT groups, including bank employees, cared about the Boy Scouts banning homosexuals from its ranks, and began picketing the bank’s headquarters. At the same time, my predecessor was blindsided by the passion of the anti-abortion movement and got caught between activists on both sides. I was able to manage this no-win situation because I did not treat it as non-business issue of little consequence. I listened to understand what was important to the activists and negotiated like a diplomat to reach deals. At the bank, I learned not only a lot about shareholder value, but also that business needs to be on top of issues outside of the corporate sphere to remain successful.”
She goes on about the need for “talent” for American businesses in China, and how cross-cultural education is important and so on. She often sounds very similar to the corporate Marxists who run so many of our largest US corporations.
Talent, Talent, Talent
The US-China Perception Monitor, which is affiliated with the Carter Center, interviewed Chang Bloch in March 2020 about the pillars of US and China relations. Here’s a snippet, but do notice how Chang Bloch asserts that American competitiveness may be dependent upon Chinese and other global “talent”:
“Zhang Juan: Some Americans emphasize the nature of competitiveness in US-China relations and argue that the US should be careful of training Chinese students. What would you say to these people?
Julia Bloch: America did not become great by being averse to competition. The competitive spirit drives America. What are our anti-trust laws for but to encourage competition? Competition can boost excellence, inspiring men and women to put out their best. Just look how crazy Americans are about sports. You cannot win by avoiding competition.
America also does not have a monopoly on education and training. The UK, Canada and Australia, to name a few countries, are great competitors. The current atmosphere where Chinese students feel increasingly unwelcome in America has created a decline in the growth in Chinese students coming to the US, to the benefit of countries only too happy to take up the slack.
There’s also, I think, a flip side to your question, which is that American competitiveness may very well depend on maintaining our inflow of Chinese students. The United States has the world’s leading higher education system today partly due to the talent we attract from not only China, but also from the rest of the world. So, to answer your question in short, should the United States be careful of training Chinese students? I think we would be shortsighted not to train them.” [My bolding]
Getting the picture? In general, the apothegm “You are known by the company you keep” is quite true. Mitch’s best friend and Elaine’s mentor, Julia Chang Bloch, is aligned with globalism and dedicated to bringing “talent” over from China via educational programs. And she’s been at it for 20 years.
Mitch Has Been Chinatized
I’ll leave you with one last gloriously cynical article that mentions Chang Bloch, but only in passing. It’s mostly a one-stop shop for dissecting Mitch McConnell’s and his wife’s China connections.
Kentuckians would be especially interested, as it focuses a bit on how Mitch has hoodwinked the good people of Kentucky, and just how does he manage to keep getting elected? Hmmm…
Gotham Buzz does a close shave on Shanghai Mitch, as he’s called in the article. A quote here:
“According to a June 6, 2019 report by the NYT,
‘… In 1989, shortly after their first date (at the Saudi ambassador’s home near Washington), Mr. McConnell was preparing for a re-election campaign. Greetings from Ms. Chao came in classic Washington fashion: a string of campaign donations, totaling $10,000, from Ms. Chao, her father, her mother, her sister May and May’s husband, Jeffrey Hwang, according to Federal Election Commission records…’
But donating money to McConnell appears to have been a good investment for the Chao family, as they keep on giving.”
Enjoy!
P. S. The love story between Mitch and Elaine is less than interesting. He has his assistant arrange a date with Elaine’s assistant and three years later Elaine tells him to $h*t or get off the pot.
Mitch’s other China connections are much more ‘sexy’, eh? 😊
So, I’m moving through Senator Mitch McConnell’s memoir, “The Long Game.” I had intended to go through it and comment on each chapter, but honestly, it is getting more and more revealing as I read through it. What seemed scandalous in one chapter is nothing compared to the next chapter.
Because Mitch is in the thick of the news right now (having lost perhaps the biggest gamble he’s made in his long, long career) I think it is only right to let him expose himself. I’m going to quote his own words and give some background when appropriate.
That the people of Kentucky have begun a recall effort against Mitch is fitting. I believe he couldn’t care a less about anyone not in his social and political sphere; and that the only constituents he gives a rip about are ones who can do something for him.
I was going to quote some of the narrative of how he won his first run for senator and then his second. But it’s just the boilerplate story that all narcissistic politicians relate: Humble background, had to fight for whatever he accomplished, hometown boy makes good sort of stuff.
It is clear to me, from reading his own memoir, that Mitch McConnell is a Republican only in the sense that it is the vehicle for his political ambitions.
From, The Conservative Treehouse
Mitch won a 1984 election squeaker against the incumbent Democrat and happily took a seat in the Senate. He got right to work planning for his reelection campaign. He says:
“At its best, the Senate is a place where consensus is necessary and my main job was to practice patience, make decisions on principle, as I’d learned from John Sherman Cooper, and try to ensure I got a second term.” [My bolding]
Mitch McConnell, The Long Game
Consensus and compromise and principles are recurring themes with Mitch. These are the values he twisted over many decades in order to justify his senatorial decisions. National and global issues were Mitch’s playground. He counted on his constituents back home to be uninformed and uninterested in national and world affairs.
“Remaining true to my conviction was, as Cooper taught me and Edmund Burke had argued two centuries earlier, the essential element of being a good senator. Another critical requisite for becoming an effective senator is to remain one, and therefore I knew that one of my most important jobs during my first term was to make sure I got a second one.” [My bolding]
Mitch McConnell, The Long Game
For Mitch, being “true to my conviction” was how he could vote for LBJ, support George H. W. Bush over Robert Dole, the Majority Leader when Mitch came into the Senate, or support the seemingly endless wars in the Middle East, or even to oppose free speech for a President of the United States while defending flag burning as an expression of it. Mitch said,
“…I became the lead proponent of defending flag burning as a constitutional right.”
Mitch McConnell, The Long Game
It’s how he can brag about the people he lists who have spoken at the McConnell Center at the University of Louisville:
“In addition to the scholarships, the center also provides students the opportunity to meet and interact with the long list of incredibly talented speakers we would bring—Colin Powell, Hillary Clinton, George W. Bush, Chief Justice John Roberts, Vice President Joe Biden…” [My bolding]
Mitch McConnel from The Long Game
These are the names from the “long list of incredibly talented speakers” Mitch chooses to list. From our 2021 vantage point, is this not telling?
Here’s Mitch on his opposition to term limits:
“I agreed with the Contract with America, except for one thing: term limits, which—fortunately was the one item that didn’t pass the House. To put it bluntly, term limits is one of the worst ideas that’s ever come on the American scene. It’s born of the shortsighted notion that learning and experience is bad, when just the opposite is true…From what I saw in the most experienced of my colleagues—people like Ted Kennedy, George Mitchell, Bob Dole, and Pete Domenici—they’d been convinced of things as a result of their experience…I knew we didn’t need to legislate term limits, because we already had them. They’re called elections.” [My bolding]
From The Long Game
The irony is so thick you almost need a chainsaw to cut through it. If only we had elections instead of selections by the DC System and their foreign friends. But I suspect Mitch knows that already.
In 1998, Mitch is named in the National Journal as a VIP. He writes,
“Much to my surprise, I’d been included on the National Journal’s list of the hundred most important people in Washington, DC, among people like Bill and Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, and Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan.” [My bolding]
Mitch McConnell, The Long Game
King-maker/King-breaker
The names he chooses to drop are intriguing. But then his forked tongue speaks and Mitch talks about Bill Clinton’s impeachment, and how he was for it. Mitch, the guy who never wanted to be president, sure does seem to want to take them down. Here is how Mitch viewed Clinton’s impeachment:
“While some of my Democratic colleagues, like Senator Robert Byrd, later said that removing Clinton wouldn’t have been good for the country, I disagree. I think what’s not good for the country is the message that the president of the United States can subvert the justice system by lying under oath.”
Mitch McConnell, The Long Game
And what did Mitch do after President Trump was acquitted in the Senate impeachment trial? He stands in the Senate and lies about the January 6th protest and accuses President Trump of fomenting violence. He impugns patriotic Americans by associating them with Antifa/BLM and other operatives who planned, executed and urged on people to breach the Capitol building.
Mitch, in his hatred of outsider President Trump and 75 million Americans who support him, was desperate to make this latest impeachment a bipartisan issue. What he did do, was ruin the careers of some RINOs (yay!) and expose himself as a jaded and corrupt power broker.
Mitch has chosen poorly. He’s been using and abusing the State and good people of Kentucky for decades in order to further his own political agenda and power, and now he’s going to pay for it. May the recall effort be successful. May the Deplorables win a key victory. Even if he survives the recall, Mitch will never again wield the kind of power he has up until now.
The System and Mitch’s preeminent place in it are hanging out there for us all to see now. The Minority Leader of the Senate is trapped in a gilded cage with miles of fencing and barbed wire around it. National Guard soldiers are freezing as they are forced to stand guard over the traitors who STOLE THE ELECTION OF 2020 and installed a doddering old fool who is controlled by Communist China.
This is what his compromising and principles have attained.
Mitch and many Republicans in Congress went along with THE STEAL. He’s comfortable with the direction our republic has now taken, back to the status quo before Trump. He never wanted it to change.
