Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1
Never talk about committing violence in a reply to Wolf or in response to anything Wolf has said, or you may get put into moderation so that your comments can be screened. This is ONLY because DHS is now playing door-knock Gestapo with people who have spoken at school board meetings, made public comments, etc. DHS regime jackboots are knocking on doors of school board mama bears and stupidly insinuating potential violence from things people say or don’t say on social media. A guy in Ohio pointed his FINGER at the school board, and they went after him, armed with pictures of the pointing, and screen captures of online comments. Yeah.
SO – give the Nazis ZERO ammo. Keep any mention of violence, even joking, away from Wolf, so that he doesn’t have to “explain” humor to humorless jackboots who pretend not to know things.
As for discussion of “violent humor” among yourselves (e.g., “#TeamHeadsOnPikes”), just use whatever discretion you think is appropriate for yourselves. I will only put you in moderation if your comments create problems for ME or THIS SITE, but not if they only impact you.
YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..
OTHER THAN THAT…….
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
First, some “epic orchestral steampunk adventure music”!
OK – now for an awesome mix of ACID ROCK and GEEZER ROCK!
And if you want some rock history which pays brief tribute to Blue Cheer, check this out…..
But after that, I’ve gotta do a deep cleanse!
And here’s one for Litenmaus, Tradebait, and our dearly departed sister from Indian Territory!
OK – gotta do JUST ONE MORE…..

Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
Bringing back some more old tunes from two years ago!
And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the DayYear Week:
binary
adjective
Characterized by or consisting of two parts or components; twofold.
Of or relating to a system of numeration having 2 as its base.
Of or relating to a system of encoding data using only 0’s and 1’s.
Perl 5 Definition:
Having to do with numbers represented in base 2. That means there’s basically two numbers: 0 and 1. Also used to describe a file of “nontext”, presumably because such a file makes full use of all the binary bits in its bytes. With the advent of Unicode, this distinction, already suspect, loses even more of its meaning. https://perldoc.perl.org/perlglossary#binary
Woke Definition:
[Gender] Binary – This is the idea that people are born either male or female, with no other ways to identify – a viewpoint that excludes non-binary and transgender people. How can you dismantle this? Add your preferred pronouns to your email signature. That way, you’re helping to normalise gender discussions while signalling that you aren’t making assumptions about how other people identify. Which could potentially be seen as a sort of clicktivism, but we won’t go into that here.
“A surface test of a nuclear device in Nevada circa 1955 shows the beginning of a mushroom cloud.” — BETTMANN ARCHIVE/GETTY IMAGES
I think with the Covid Vaccine, our eyes have been opened to just how demented the Cabal can be. So we need to be aware of the thinking of these diabolically disordered souls. I have tried to give you a glimpse into the thinking of the Cabal to serve as a background for why I do not think nuclear war is ‘Unthinkable’ to them.
At this point we have several players on the field:
Putin – He does not worry me because he has proven to be smart and measured with a very cool head.
Xi – Again very smart. I do not trust him, however the Chinese generally look at the LONG VIEW and they have been wining the stealth war.
Kim Jung Un – I think that Trump neutralized him or rather his puppet masters.
For me the question mark is IRAN given Obama, Val Jar and Kerry’s interest. Just do a search on Iran plus Nuclear.
I certainly hope the Badlands group who think there is a ‘Sovereign Alliance’ is correct and that Iran is part of it!
At this point I think we are all aware the Biden’s and others have a vested interest in Ukraine. Whether it is bio-weapon development, human/child trafficking, money laundering, storage of wealth AS GOLD/SILVER , cashes of blackmail materials… It is OBVIOUS Ukraine is a lot more important to the Cabal than just concern for the Ukrainians who are being killed off in high numbers.
Clif High mentions that he knew a guy who was a smelter for the old Soviet Union. He was sited in the Ukraine. He told Clif about the flow of metal, in both directions through Ukraine. Also Ukraine has always been a center for Silver craftsmen. Clif thinks that Putin is busy looting the precious metal store houses of the Cabal. [Source: https://clifhighvideos.com/20220424a/]
Since I started this article, the story leaked about the unlawful attack on the Nordstream Pipeline by the Biden Admin. Was this an actual whistle-blower? Or was it something more sinister. Another PROD of the Russian Bear?
Excellent article detailing the ideological roots behind US-Ukraine versus Russia.
Near a hundred years in the making, as a cult/sect developed from the left and took the extreme right, while gathering enormous governmental powers which they yield in Europe and the Russian sphere, not just in Kiev.
…In a word, we must understand that we are dealing with people, in general, absolutely crazy. But the sad fact is that it was they who seized power in the largest country in the Western world and are holding the whole world hostage today. A madman with a razor in his hand and a red button at hand – alas, this is the real state of affairs. That is, one must understand that these people, living in the world of their messianic ideas, will not stop before the nuclear apocalypse, being ready to turn Europe and America into atomic ashes (which these children of the world revolution treat in the same way as they treat Russia – for them it is only a resource and a “bundle of brushwood”)….
A Russian parliament member has escalated his bombast about nuking Western nations, as Russia now mobilizes warships in the Baltic Sea, according to Norwegian intelligence reports.
Andrey Gurulyov, a State Duma member and former military commander, recently gave a warning to the United States during a broadcast on the Kremlin-controlled Russia-1 network.
In a panel moderated by host Vladimir Solovyov, Gurulyov said that Americans “won’t come to their senses” until they “get hit with a nuke on their skull.”
The Russian ultra-nationalist also claimed that a nuclear strike was the only path forward to ensure lasting peace….
It is certainly not anything to give you a sense of security!
THE HISTORY OF US PUBLIC NUCLEAR PARANOIA
The Elite are well aware that ENERGY is the key to re-enslaving the middle class. Energy is THE prime requirement for civilization. Anywhere from animal/slave muscle power to oil to nuclear we depend on energy. As Aristotle said:
“when looms weave by themselves man’s slavery will end.”
Aristotle
So what is the Cabal’s point of view?
“Giving society cheap, abundant energy would be the equivalent of giving an idiot child a machine gun.”
Dr. Paul Ehrlich, Anne Ehrlich, and Dr. John Holdren, (Obama’s Science Czar) Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment, 1970, p. 323
(Please notice the dates all center around the late 1960’s and early 1970’s, which I identified in the earlier articles as a critical point in our history.) Once the Cabal killed off nuclear (last US nuclear plant started in 1977) they started in on coal, petroleum and now natural gas. If you do a bit of poking around you find the Rockefellers, aka Standard oil, funded a lot of the research on the medical problems from radiation poisoning. Also SOMEONE funded all those nuclear protesters here in the USA. A want ad I saw in the 1985 Boston Globe said “Nuclear Protesters $10/hour” Before all the Global warming nonsense, in 1969, a Rockefeller official said the USA would be de-industrialized.
Dr. Richard Day, the National Medical Director of the Rockefeller-sponsored “Planned Parenthood” told a meeting that American industry will be sabotaged and shown to be unreliable and uncompetitive…
“The stated plan was that different parts of the world would be assigned different roles of industry and commerce in a unified global system. The continued preeminence of the United States and the relative independence and self-sufficiency of the United States would have to be changed… in order to create a new structure, you first have to tear down the old, and American industry was one example of that.”
….THE ANTI-ENERGY MOVEMENT – Ralph Nader & Rockefeller – the churches are among the first targets …
In 1971 Ralph Nader, bankrolled by the Rockefeller network, began to work with a lawyer Anthony Roisman and the “Union of Concerned Scientists” to combine the efforts of environmental groups and public interest lawyers against NP [Nuclear Power]. They worked on several fronts:
+ Legal action delay projects.
+ Lobbying Congress and Government agencies.
+ Propagandising the churches
+ Advertising directed at the general public
Exaggerated dangers and innuendos of industry incompetence were widely accepted as fact. The industry had no strategy for self-defence, being in the business of NP, not propaganda, and became “an 80 billion dollar underdog”.
“To cut a long story short, thanks to Ralph Nader’s initiative, there exists a well co-ordinated coalition of interest groups in the USA with all the attributes of a major corporation: well planned, influential, with strong political and financial support, well-tested strategies, professional communication expertise and tremendous legal punch. About 600 full-time “environmental lawyers” operated on a budget of at least 45 million dollars in 1977 and about one-third of this was spent purely on energy-stopping….
Marxists are trained that objective reality doesn’t exist separate from what they think so they believe that a ‘Consensus’ the synthesis of two view points, is the ‘TRUTH’ This is why there is such emphasis on the ‘97% Consensus on Global Warming.’ No amount of scientific evidence will sway them since they do not believe in objective reality.– The Philosophy Of Karl Marx ~ ECONOMIC THEORIES
Then there is the other type of activist represented by this conversation with an anti-society antinuclear activist:
…I had the opportunity a few days ago of talking to a bright young anti-nuclear activist about the way Fukushima has helped the anti-nuclear cause….
I braced myself for a debate about how serious the nuclear accident really was, health effects, long term effect, cleanup costs, etc. But I was completely taken off-guard by what he told me right off the bat. He actually agreed that the seriousness of the accident was greatly overstated and that the health effects were likely to turn out to be as small as to be nonexistent.
My response was, of course, to ask how he could align this with the scaremongering and misinformation being spread by the anti-nuclear parties. He then explained to me that the facts about nuclear energy, its safety and even its positive economic effects were not relevant. He said that scaremongering and misinformation where the appropriate and moral strategy of anti-nuclear groups.
He said that the ideology of sustainability and anti-nuclearism was so important for the future of humanity that facts should be of no concern. Moreover: if the invention of fake information (i.e. lies) about nuclear energy could bring closer the day of elimination of nuclear power from the earth, then that meant that producing and spreading fake information should (and indeed was) a top priority of all anti-nuclear groups…..
He said that people in general cannot and do not base their views and opinions on facts, so the value of facts versus fiction was relative. In order to bring about the desired outcome (i.e. a nuclear free world) fiction could be (and in fact was, in his opinion) a much better way to do it then facts.
Finally, I asked him why he thought nuclear power should be eliminated even after he told me that he agreed that nuclear power was good for the economy. His reply was simply that an additional goal of the antinuclear movement (as far as he was concerned) was in fact the reduction of economic activity, since according to him, the greatest cause of ecological damage was increased economic activity.
So in his mind, the fact that nuclear power was a boon for the economy was all the more reason to try to eliminate it. In closing, I told him that a reduction in economic activity would also reduce his own prospects for a high quality of life and prosperity. But he didn’t agree with me. He said that further economic expansion was of no use to him, because he believed in living a simple life…
He said that economic expansion was bad for people because it distracted from the true quality of life, which consists of community and social activities that are mostly threatened by improved prosperity, rather than improved by it…..
He knows darn well he is lying and is intentionally crafting lies because HE knows what is best for humanity and we are too stupid and greedy to be trusted to control our own lives. Again no amount of scientific evidence will sway them since they already know everything is a lie and are very willing to put on the serf’s collar and live in poverty…. or at least put it on YOU.
Just for the record… Nuclear Testing
There were over 900 atmospheric and underground nuclear tests in the USA alone. There were 12 high-altitude nuclear tests during the late 1950′s and early 1960′s off the coast of California at Johnston Island. From 1945 until 2008, there have been over 2,000 nuclear tests conducted worldwide.
Well, well, well the Wayback has been updated and so has the site archive to read:
Since the first nuclear test explosion on July 16, 1945, at least eight nations have detonated 2,056 nuclear test explosions at dozens of test sites, including Lop Nor in China, the atolls of the Pacific, Nevada, Algeria where France conducted its first nuclear device, western Australia where the U.K. exploded nuclear weapons, the South Atlantic, Semipalatinsk in Kazakhstan, across Russia, and elsewhere.
NOTHING about the above ground testing. I originally posted the earlier version on September 14, 2022 16:52
So the ‘Danger’ from Fukushima was hyped aka DISINFO. We got more exposure from living in the USA and Europe from the late 50s on but no one ever mentions that and now they are even ‘disappearing’ the existence of the above ground testing.
From the article:
…In the natural environment, caesium is far less mobile than iodine for instance. Attached to minerals, it tends to stay on the ground and is particularly abundant on the forest floor, after having been intercepted by the vegetation. The mycelium, the name given to the vegetative part of fungi and mushrooms that grow within a few centimeters of the ground, traps caesium in the same way as it (unintentionally) traps pesticides. The isotope can concentrate in the food chain: in the flesh of fish or game, for instance.
Once absorbed by a human body, caesium spreads through the muscles until, after the 100 days of its biological lifespan, it disappears. This comparatively quick elimination means that only one nucleus out of 160 will decay inside the human body.…
Good grief! That URL from my September comment was also disappeared! ARCHIVED:
THE CABAL IS NOT AFRAID OF NUKES
The Cabal knows what nuclear strikes will do and how long it takes to recover. Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Chernobyl were closely studied over the last decades. The GOAL is to KILL LOTS OF PEOPLE and to take over the world. Therefore I am thinking they might go NUCLEAR WAR if all else fails. The crap about Trump having the nuclear codes makes me see that as a higher possibility. The Cabal KNOWS nuclear bombs are NOT as bad as the Fake News tells us and there is plenty of evidence. They also KNOW that New Zealand is relatively safe because of air and wind currents.
…The report, Are passive smoking, air pollution and obesity a greater mortality risk than major radiation incidents?, finds an increased risk of mortality of 0.4-1.0% for Chernobyl emergency workers, while the increased mortality risk from air pollution for a resident of Central London is 2.8%. And if you are married to a smoker, beware! The increased mortality risk from passive smoking, for the partner of a smoking spouse, is 1.7%. The increased mortality risk to people living in the Chernobyl affected areas in the 1990s is estimated at 0.37%, while even for people returning to live unofficially within the 30 km exclusion zone imposed around the plant in the aftermath of the accident the increased mortality risk is estimated at 1.0%. (The study does not include the 134 people who received extremely high doses of radiation during the 1986 accident).
The study also finds that the effects of obesity on life expectancy are more extreme than radiation effects for survivors of the two atomic bombs.
“The risk to the individual from exposures following major radiation incidents is clearly significant, but may be no greater than that from other much more common environmental and lifestyle factors. This comparative analysis, whilst highlighting inevitable uncertainties in risk quantification and comparison, helps place the potential consequences of radiation exposures in the context of other public health risks,” said Smith….
Of course only a nerd like me would actually read these types of article.
In addition, it is these isotopes that accounted for most of the harmful effects following the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986. Cesium-137. Cesium-137 arises as a cleavage product in the nuclear fission of uranium. Cesium-137 reacts further as a β-source to give barium-137….
+ Iodine-131
Iodine-131 arises as a cleavage product in the nuclear fission of uranium. This β-emitter decays with a half-life of 8 days to metastable xenon, which releases relatively weak γ-radiation….
+ Cesium-137
Cesium-137 arises as a cleavage product in the nuclear fission of uranium. Cesium-137 reacts further as a β- source to give barium-137…… Cesium-137 has a half-life of 30 years <— [That is why I said thirty years. — GC]
+ Barium-137
Barium-137 has a half-life of 2.55 minutes. Since this process takes place so rapidly, from a simplified perspective, the decay of cesium-137 is accompanied by both β-radiation and γ-radiation.
The main problem with cesium-137, which is present in the form of salts, is its high water solubility. Cesium-137 ions are readily distributed in the body, and especially in the muscle tissues. The biological half-life is 110 days. This means that half of the cesium-137 has been excreted again after 110 days.
For the same reasons, however, cesium-137 also finds its way into foodstuffs that have been prepared in contaminated areas…..
Now go back and look at the article on cesium that just got taken down after I posted it in September.
The World Nuclear Association site has write ups on Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Chernobyl I quote a few paragraphs of much longer articles to illustrate the amount of study and how dangerous long term the bombs/accidents were.
To the 103,000 deaths from the blast or acute radiation exposure at Hiroshima and Nagasaki have since been added those due to radiation induced cancers and leukaemia, which amounted to some 400 within 30 years, and which may ultimately reach about 550. (Some 93,000 exposed survivors were still being monitored 50 years later.) There was an increase in leukaemia beginning about two years later and peaking at four to six years later, and other cancers beginning about ten years later. There was no evident to suggest an increase in leukaemia at less than 500 mSv acute dose. At an acute dose of 100 mSv, an increased cancer risk of 1.05 times normal was calculated. There was concern about ingestion or inhalation of radionuclides, but fires released far higher levels of non-radioactive carcinogens. Additionally, no genetic damage has been detected in survivors’ children, despite careful and continuing investigation by a joint Japanese-US foundation.
The major source of exposure in both cities was from the penetrating gamma radiations, and to a lesser extent from the neutrons (mostly at Hiroshima), emitted during and shortly after fission. There were two further, and smaller, sources of exposure. One, already mentioned, was due to the ‘black rain’ which fell in some areas, carrying down radioactive materials from within the rising cloud of fission products. The exposures due to these depositions are in general estimated to have been small, but some increased activity from the fission product radionuclide caesium-137 remained detectable for many years in soil and farm products in the Nishiyama district east of Nagasaki.
The second additional form of exposure resulted from the effect of neutrons in inducing radioactivity in various stable chemical elements such as in iron or concrete structures or roofing tiles. The total absorbed doses of radiation from these activation products are estimated to be less than one per cent of that from the neutrons which induced them. They could however have caused a significant exposure of people who entered the city within a few days of the explosions.
Subsequent atmospheric weapons tests
The atmospheric testing of some 545 nuclear weapons up to 1963 caused people to be exposed to radiation in a quite different way. The Japanese atomic bombs had caused lethal exposures locally from radiation at the time of the explosions, but very little radiation more than a few kilometres away. On the other hand, subsequent atmospheric tests did not cause any substantial direct exposures of people at the time of the tests. However, the fission products released into the atmosphere caused the whole world population to be exposed to very low but continuing annual doses from fallout. In at least two instances these fission products also caused substantial irradiation to small populations exposed to local fallout close to the site of testing…
The accident destroyed the Chernobyl 4 reactor, killing 30 operators and firemen within three months and several further deaths later. One person was killed immediately and a second died in hospital soon after as a result of injuries received. Another person is reported to have died at the time from a coronary thrombosisc. Acute radiation syndrome (ARS) was originally diagnosed in 237 people onsite and involved with the clean-up and it was later confirmed in 134 cases. Of these, 28 people died as a result of ARS within a few weeks of the accident. Nineteen more workers subsequently died between 1987 and 2004, but their deaths cannot necessarily be attributed to radiation exposured. Nobody offsite suffered from acute radiation effects although a significant, but uncertain, fraction of the thyroid cancers diagnosed since the accident in patients who were children at the time are likely to be due to intake of radioactive iodine falloutm,9. Furthermore, large areas of Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, and beyond were contaminated in varying degrees….
The accident caused the largest uncontrolled radioactive release into the environment ever recorded for any civilian operation, and large quantities of radioactive substances were released into the air for about 10 days. This caused serious social and economic disruption for large populations in Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine. Two radionuclides, the short-lived iodine-131 and the long-lived caesium-137, were particularly significant for the radiation dose they delivered to members of the public.
It is estimated that all of the xenon gas, about half of the iodine and caesium, and at least 5% of the remaining radioactive material in the Chernobyl 4 reactor core (which had 192 tonnes of fuel) was released in the accident. Most of the released material was deposited close by as dust and debris, but the lighter material was carried by wind over Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, and to some extent over Scandinavia and Europe….
In 1989, the World Health Organization (WHO) first raised concerns that local medical scientists had incorrectly attributed various biological and health effects to radiation exposure. Following this, the Government of the USSR requested the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to coordinate an international experts’ assessment of accident’s radiological, environmental and health consequences in selected towns of the most heavily contaminated areas in Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine. Between March 1990 and June 1991, a total of 50 field missions were conducted by 200 experts from 25 countries (including the USSR), seven organizations, and 11 laboratories3. In the absence of pre-1986 data, it compared a control population with those exposed to radiation. Significant health disorders were evident in both control and exposed groups, but, at that stage, none was radiation related…..
The US Government also did illegal experiments on American citizens. Below are the DOD radiation experiments on US citizens that my Mom was part of. Essentially if you do not give a crap about your workers, you can move back in in about 30 years or even sooner.
…A review of these documents reveals the frequent and systematic use of human subjects as guinea pigs for radiation experiments. Some of these experiments were conducted in the 1940’s and 1950’s, and others were performed during the supposedly more enlightened 1960’s and 1970’s. The report describes in detail 31 experiments during which about 695 persons were exposed to radiation which provided little or no medical benefit to the subjects….
I think there were a lot more than the 600+ IDed. My parents were certainly not notified that Mom was a subject of that experimentation.
…“Secretary Clinton proved tonight she is unfit to be commander-in-chief,” a top-ranking DOD intelligence source said. “What she did compromises our national security. She is cavalier and reckless and in my opinion should be detained and questioned so we can unravel why she did what she did.”
According to Pentagon sources, the information Clinton disseminated publicly is Top Secret intelligence governed under the U.S. Special Access Program (SAP) which dictates safeguards and protocols for accessing and discussing highly classified and Top Secret intelligence. The specific details of the country’s nuclear response time discussed by Clinton, sources said, are only known by a handful of individuals outside top military brass…
ACCIDENT??? Do not forget that Bill Clinton GAVE the Chinese not only our nuclear secrets but the delivery system!
…In return for campaign contributions, the President shifted regulation of technology exports from the State Department to the free-wheeling Commerce department. The administration also relaxed export controls and allowed corporations to decide if their technology transfers were legal or not. When easing restrictions wasn’t enough, Clinton signed waivers that simply circumvented the law. The President’s waivers allowed the export of machine tools, defense electronics, and even a communications system for the Chinese Air Force.
Bernard Schwartz and Michael Armstrong, the CEOs of Loral and Hughes, each donated over one million dollars to Clinton’s re-election campaign. These companies had an interest in seeing China develop reliable missiles to loft their satellites into orbit. Clinton arranged direct talks between Bernard Schwartz and a Chinese general to improve China’s rocket technology. Michael Armstrong was made head of the Export Advisory Council. Both companies were allowed to upgrade the launching and guidance of China’s missiles.
Clinton even involved the Department of Energy, caretaker of our nuclear weapons, in his fundraising schemes. In 1994 and ’95 then Energy Secretary Hazel O’Leary accompanied Johnny Chung, John Huang, Charlie Trie, and Bernard Schwartz on trade missions to China. Shortly afterward the DOE relaxed security at US weapons labs. Wen Ho Lee, an ethnic Chinese physicist assigned to Los Alamos, illegally transferred data on nuclear warheads to his private computer files.
In June of 1995, the CIA learned that China had stolen the crown jewels of our nuclear arsenal, including the neutron bomb and the W-88 miniaturized warhead. Later that year National Security Advisor Anthony Lake is briefed on the thefts. He is replaced on the Security Council by Sandy Berger, a former lobbyist for the Chinese government. In June of 1996, before Bill Clinton’s re-election, the FBI opens a formal investigation into the theft of US nuclear weapon designs….
“Right now all across America, government agencies are buying up a long list of survival and preparedness gear, depleting the supply that remains available to civilians. Large-scale government purchases currently include:
+Storable food, MREs and emergency food supplies.
+Ammunition and firearms.
+Night vision devices
+High-efficiency HVAC system components.
+Potassium iodide pills (for protecting the thyroid from radiation damage).
+Garden seeds and fertilizer.
+Diesel fuel, diesel engine oil and other transportation-related components.
These supplies are being transported by the millions of pallets into underground caves, bunkers and even cities that are run by governments of the world….
If the Cabal thought they had actually been IDed (not just their useful idiots like Biden and Trudeau and Klaus Schawb) but THEM and they thought that this time they would actually be facing a REAL Nuremberg instead of a rigged Kabuki trial like the original Nuremberg, then I would not be surprised if they went for the ‘Nuclear Option.’ Let’s hope cooler heads have REMOVED the nuclear button from their hands.
He became known for analyzing the likely consequences of nuclear war and recommending ways to improve survivability during the Cold War. Kahn posited the idea of a “winnable” nuclear exchange in his 1960 book On Thermonuclear Warfor which he is cited as one of the historical inspirations for the title character of Stanley Kubrick’s classic black comedy film satire Dr. Strangelove.[1] In his commentary for Fail Safe, director Sidney Lumet remarked that the Professor Groeteschele character is also based on Herman Kahn.[2] Kahn’s theories contributed to the development of the nuclear strategy of the United States….
In the summer of 1957, Henry A. Kissinger, a Harvard faculty member, was featured in a front-page Times_ story that examined the idea that, with a new generation of smaller, more transportable atomic weapons, a “limited” or “little” nuclear war was not as outlandish as it sounded….
The notion of a small nuclear war was offered as an alternative to the policy of “massive retaliation” identified with John Foster Dulles, President Dwight Eisenhower’s Secretary of State, which held that an aggressor state risked an atomic barrage, language that in the thermonuclear age carried with it a suggestion of total annihilation…. “The tactics for limited nuclear war should be based on small, highly mobile, self-contained units, relying largely on air transport even within the combat zone,” he wrote. The right model for a limited nuclear war was, he said, naval strategy, “in which self-contained units with great firepower gradually gain the upper hand,” with the effect of keeping “the enemy constantly off balance.” In a triumph of understatement, he added that this “will require a radical break with our traditional notions of warfare and military organizations.”…
One of the most infamous characters in modern history is Henry Kissinger. His musings and policy recommendations have shaped much of the Western world today, warts and all; and there are many warts. Population control, nuclear proliferation, Middle East wars, de-pegging of the USD from gold, the rise of China, the impending collapse of the West and so much more can all trace their roots back to Henry Kissinger.
[Boy is that an understatement! -G.C.]
Nuclear Weapons
In 1951, Kissinger began his employment working for the military and was trained in the art of psychological warfare. In 1954, Kissinger joined the Council on Foreign Relations. He managed a study group on nuclear weapons. He managed a study group on nuclear weapons and subsequently published a 490-page book titled, “Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy”.
This quote illustrates Kissinger’s cavalier approach to the use of nuclear weapons. Throughout the 1950s, Kissinger and another military strategist and nuclear enthusiast, Hermann Kahn, would sprout out theories from the CFR on the political and military use of nuclear weapons. They would shy away from being described as Realpolitik, and instead described themselves as pragmatic, political realists.
However, this somehow did not benefit the United States, as other countries would also acquire nuclear weapons. Kissinger was the National Security Advisor when it was discovered that Israel had a nuclear program. At every turn Kissinger was aware of the nuclear situation… Kissinger was also involved in the France becoming a nuclear power….
[NOTICE THE DATE! Mid 1970s! -G.C.]
…When we look back at the original book published by Kissinger in 1954, he appeared to be a man determined to consolidate America as an unrivalled super power, even recommending the use of nukes in regular warfare. However, by the mid-1970s, rival nations were producing their own nuclear weapons and Kissinger not only appeared unconcerned by their programs, but was generally supportive….
This is an area where I have very little knowledge and I hope our engineering/computer types can chime in. I do know that a friend with an older VW bug can not get into her trunk until she replaces the battery in her key. I do know a customer got stuck in the parking garage at the airport. He had a brand new car and the signal from the car dealer was blocked by the concrete and steel so he could not start his car. I also know that companies want NEW semi trucks hauling their stuff. Usually no older than 3 to 5 years old. THAT MEANS A LOAN and probably the same tracking/shutoff system. Companies want GPS so they can track their drivers and see if they are speeding. And now they want computer systems for trains.
No, and the starter and alternator will be fine also. The Mustang will be perfectly functional. EMP needs long conductors to build up enough energy to trash things, and the electrical system in older cars cannot build up enough energy to kill the brute force coils and condensers that they have.
Digital parts are another story altogether. Not to put too fine a point on it, but One Second After cannot happen as portrayed because there will be plenty of vehicles running around that will run. Small generators that weren’t connected to any line loads should be fine also

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy(@wolfmoon1776)
Not sure if people know this, but I know that about 10 years ago, EVERY railway car in America was tracked in real time by the CCP and PLA, because there was a very sketchy Chinese company that provided “monitoring” devices and software for all American railway cars, supposedly to help maintain the wheels. I always thought that was ridiculous, but apparently, people in Washington thought this was OK
There is also direct attacks on electric substations. Transformers can take months to replace if they are not in stock.
…The electromagnetic pulse that comes from the sundering of an atom, potentially destroying electronics within the blast radius with some impact miles away from ground zero, is just one of many effects of every nuclear blast. What is peculiar about these pulses, often referred to as EMPs, is the way the side effect of a nuclear blast is treated as a special threat in its own right by bodies such as the Task Force on National and Homeland Security, which, despite the official-sounding name, is a privately funded group. These groups continue a decade long tradition of obsession over EMPs, one President Donald Trump and others have picked up on. These EMP-specific fears are wholly divorced from the normal risk calculations of a war between nuclear-armed states and the threat of nuclear oblivion. Doing so obscures the history—and misunderstands the dangers…..
High-altitude nuclear EMPs were discovered as part of the atmospheric Operation Fishbowl testing series in 1962. The most famous of these, Starfish Prime, was detonated at nearly 250 miles above the planet’s surface. The electromagnetic pulse was far-reaching, shutting down some streetlights in Oahu almost 900 miles away from the detonation. The partial test ban treaty of 1963 meant that the Fishbowl series were the last live explosion high-altitude tests by the United States, but the potential of using a nuclear weapon blown up high in the sky to disable electronics became a dedicated part of nuclear war planning for ever afterward…
HMMMMmmm… I am not sure how much I trust that writer. He talks of hardening Military equipment while Dr Pry talks about CIVILIAN infra-structure much of which is manufactured in China.
Dr. [Vincent] Pry is the Executive Director of Task Force on National and Homeland Security, a Congressional Advisory Board dedicated to achieving protection of the United States from electromagnetic pulse (EMP), cyber-attack, mass destruction terrorism and other threats to civilian critical infrastructures on an accelerated basis. Dr. Pry is also the Director of the United States Nuclear Strategy Forum, a Congressional Advisory Board dedicated to developing policies to counter Weapons of Mass Destruction. In 2015, Dr. Pry testified in Denver on Colorado’s first attempt to pass EMP/GMD legislation. Dr. Pry also continues to serve on the Congressional EMP Commission, like his fellow commissioners, despite the current lack of Congressional funding.
Dr. Pry has written numerous books on national security issues, including:
+ The Long Sunday: Nuclear EMP Attack Scenarios (2016);
+ Blackout Wars: State Initiatives to Achieve Preparedness against an EMP Catastrophe(2015);
+ Electric Armageddon: Civil-Military Preparedness for an Electromagnetic Pulse Catastrophe (2013);
+ Apocalypse Unknown: The Struggle to Protect America from an EMP Catastrophe (2013);…. [longer listing at website]
Earlier information:
Dr. Peter Vincent Pry is Executive Director of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security and Director of the U.S. Nuclear Strategy Forum, both Congressional Advisory Boards, and served on the Congressional EMP Commission, the Congressional Strategic Posture Commission, the House Armed Services Committee, and the CIA.<– (In other words this man knows his stuff. )
President Obama denied that North Korea could deliver on the threats, claiming that North Korea does not yet have nuclear armed missiles. (Yeah, but Bill Clinton gave the capabilities to China.)
North Korea’s third illegal nuclear test on February 12, 2013, was followed by increased international sanctions, that prompted escalating threats from North Korea to make nuclear missile strikes against U.S. allies, South Korea and Japan, and the mainland United States. President Obama denied that North Korea could deliver on these threats, claiming that North Korea does not yet have nuclear armed missiles–despite assessments to the contrary by DIA, CIA, and NATO.
Three months earlier, on December 12, 2012, North Korea successfully orbited a satellite, the KSM-3, thereby demonstrating the capability to deliver a small nuclear warhead to intercontinental ranges–against any nation on Earth. The Congressional Commission to Assess the Threat to the United States from Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Attack assessed that Russia, China, and North Korea (with help from Russia) have probably developed nuclear weapons of special design that produce a low explosive yield and high gamma ray output in order to generate an extraordinarily powerful EMP field. The Russians term these “Super-EMP” weapons. Independently, South Korean military intelligence and a Chinese military commentator in open sources credit North Korea with having Super-EMP warheads….
By Ambassador R. James Woolsey and Dr. Peter Vincent Pry – – Tuesday, February 14, 2017
Congress, virtually at the last minute and unnoted by the press, finally passed the Critical Infrastructure Protection Act (CIPA) — arguably the single most important piece of legislation approved by Congress in 2016 — by inserting it into the National Defense Authorization Act….
….Dr. Peter Pry, who served as chief of staff to the Commission to Assess the Threat to the United States from Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Attack, which Congress unwisely chose to disband late last year, [So that is ONE FP Mag LIE – G.C.] currently serves as Executive Director of the EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security. He told Congress that there is the possibility that Pyongyang has deployed two “super EMP” satellites in low-earth orbit over the continental United States which, if detonated over the country without warning, could kill up to 290 million Americans within a year. Pry also estimates that Russia currently possesses at least three times more nuclear weapons than the United States. In addition, communist China recently admitted having built three thousand miles worth of underground tunnels where it may be concealing hundreds of mobile ICBMs with 1,600–1,800 nuclear warheads, according to Col. Gen. Viktor Yesin, a former commander of Russia’s Strategic Rocket Forces. That number is considerably more than the number that the United States currently has deployed.
Meanwhile, Russia has tried to build underground towns and command centers from which its political and military leadership could fight—and possibly win—a nuclear war with the United States. Russia has also deployed a massive national-defense system, which the late former Defense Intelligence Agency and Central Intelligence Agency analyst William T. Lee documented in his excellent book “The ABM Charade—A Study in Elite Illusion and Delusion.” That defense system may be capable of shooting down most U.S. warheads launched in response to a hypothetical Russian nuclear first strike….
Badlands Media Special Interview: Lt Gen (Ret.) Steven L. Kwast
What the video is about:
~5: min he mentions that warfare tools have moved. With that balloon, China is using grey zone warfare to gain info and test… we are waking up to the fact we are being spied on… China is taking over by purchasing the Energy sector, the ag sector… this warfare is information, it is economic and it is a strategy to hide in plain sight in the free economy of America.
~8 min We have NOT designed for this and China knows…. Russia and China have been working on the seam lines of our capability gaps. Later he talks about SPACE and the necessity to DOMINATE so we can protect our commerce. . we need DOMINATE maneuver, DOMINATE energy and DOMINATE Communications (39 min)
~21:00 this is what China is building…they are building an ECONOMY in space. They can refuel in space, they can maneuver in space, they can deliver energy in space [tothe ground] mining asteroids. One is closer to the earth than the moon and has trillions of dollars worth of mineral.
32:30 – power beam can be used for good (deliver energy) or can be used as a tactical weapon.
He also points out that after Nixon resignation, the country abandoned space.. (Think Kissinger opening CHINA and launching the World Economic Forum.)…. He also talks of our complete dependence on computers that leaves us vulnerable to an EMF attack.
Another Badlands Video
~ 36:00 minutes is a map of the Chinese balloon’s path. The flight path is over major electric stations.. Remember Pompeo said that the balloon can be steered.
The countries are testing a technology for possible military application, say Chinese scientists involved in the project
Militaries have been in a race to control the ionosphere, which allows radio signals to bounce long distances for communication, for decades
China and Russia have modified an important layer of the atmosphere above Europe to test a controversial technology for possible military application, according to Chinese scientists involved in the project.
A total of five experiments were carried out in June. One, on June 7, caused physical disturbance over an area as large as 126,000 sq km (49,000 square miles), or about half the size of Britain.
The modified zone, looming more than 500km (310 miles) high over Vasilsursk, a small Russian town in eastern Europe, experienced an electric spike with 10 times more negatively charged subatomic particles than surrounding regions.
In another experiment on June 12, the temperature of thin, ionised gas in high altitude increased more than 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) because of the particle flux.
The particles, or electrons, were pumped into the sky by Sura, an atmospheric heating facility in Vasilsursk built by the former Soviet Union’s military during the cold war….
NEW ZEALAND
I think that NZ is the perfect place for the Cabal to go to ground.
This map shows the principles behind the currents found around New Zealand and in the Tasman Sea. The South Equatorial Current (far north of this map), which is very warm as it reaches Australia’s east coast, is bent southward by Coriolis forces and by this coast. At Australia’s easternmost point, it splits and one part veers east, deflected by Coriolis forces. The other half follows the east coast down until it meets cool water passing around Tasmania. On its way south, it meets the cold water of the West Wind Drift and a front or convergence forms because water masses of different temperature and salinity, mix with difficulty. In diagrams B and C, such a front is shown in a very simplified way. The front acts as a wall between the two currents that spiral along it at either side. The STF effectively walls the Tasman Sea in. Water entering it from the north, cannot pass this wall and has to exit somewhere east of New Zealand, passing by Stewart Island, through Cook Strait and around North Cape…. The effects these currents have on New Zealand are:
Warm currents make New Zealand’s climate at least 2ºC warmer than without.
While cooling, the warm currents evaporate moisture that provides the rains necessary for a mild, moist climate.
Nutrients well up along the convergence zones (TF and STF) and along the north-east coast of the North Island. It provides for good fishing.
Nutrients are transported from Australia towards New Zealand’s fishing grounds.
The large differences in water temperature from south to north cause highly changeable weather.
New Zealand’s climate is spared the extremes of droughts and deluges found elsewhere in the world. In fact, New Zealand is one of the few places in the world, where rain falls in every season.…
New Zealand and Australia are not glaciated. Australia was a lot drier while New Zealand had fairly decent weather during the last ice age.
…28,000-25,000 14C y.a. (just before the Last Glacial Maximum)
…..In the northern-most peninsula of New Zealand, conditions seem to have been cooler but wetter than at present. Forest was still present at this stage(Newnham et al. 1993).
LGM-Late Glacial; 18,000-12,000 14C y.a..
In New Zealand, forest was almost eliminated and its place taken by scrub and grasslands….
New Zealand is shown on the left instead of the normal position to the right of Australia.
Aridity caused a large area of extreme desert with drifting sand dunes to appear in central Australia. The temperate forests of the south-east were also eliminated, their place being taken by scrub (light green),woodland (darker green) and semi-desert (light red). A land bridge connected Australia and New Guinea; this was apparently covered in open grasslands (yellow) or scrub. In New Guinea, some rainforest (dark green) seems to have survived, though reduced in area. In New Zealand, forest was almost eliminated and its place taken by scrub and grasslands.
Nuclear power for water de-salinazation and you are good to go. Also salt tolerant plants would be useful for the land slowly uncovered due to the shrinking seas.
One of the driest countries on Earth now makes more freshwater than it needs
We are standing above the new Sorek desalination plant, the largest reverse-osmosis desal facility in the world, and we are staring at Israel’s salvation.
Bar-Zeev, who recently joined Israel’s Zuckerberg Institute for Water Research after completing his postdoc work at Yale University, is an expert on biofouling, which has always been an Achilles’ heel of desalination and one of the reasons it has been considered a last resort. Desal works by pushing saltwater into membranes containing microscopic pores. The water gets through, while the larger salt molecules are left behind. But microorganisms in seawater quickly colonize the membranes and block the pores, and controlling them requires periodic costly and chemical-intensive cleaning. But Bar-Zeev and colleagues developed a chemical-free system using porous lava stone to capture the microorganisms before they reach the membranes. It’s just one of many breakthroughs in membrane technology that have made desalination much more efficient….
SAVING PLANT, ANIMAL DNA
From what I can tell, the Cabal has this covered too. From saved seeds to saved plant, animal and human DNA plus cloned animals and crispr babies. The following is just a tidbit from that rabbit hole.
The Svalbard Global SeedVault ( Norwegian: Svalbard globale frøhvelv) is a secure backup facility for the world’s crop diversity on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen in the remote Arctic Svalbard archipelago
In addition to seed, DNA from humans and from Animals has been collected. Want to show your 4-H calf? you have to submit a DNA sample starting in 2008.
The fairs and Shows use this company:
IDTRAK™ is a DNA banking system designed for livestock owners.
All animals have a unique genetic profile. IDTRAK™ allows livestock owners to maintain that unique genetic profile as a historic record. These records can be needed for a variety of situations where you need to trace the identity or parentage (family tree), breed or association registration, trace back due to later event (sales, siring, disease, or reproduction issues) or even to use for future genetic testing. Right now, genetic companies are working hard to discover genes that affect economic traits in livestock, such as meat quality, disease resistance, reproduction, and others.

Just remember…we might replace the RINO candidates. (Or we might not. The record is mixed even though there is more MAGA than there used to be.) But that will make no difference in the long run if the party officials, basically the Rhonna McDaniels (or however that’s spelled–I suspect it’s RINO), don’t get replaced.
State party chairs, vice chairs, secretaries and so on, and the same at county levels, have huge influence on who ultimately gets nominated, and if these party wheelhorses are RINOs, they will work tirelessly to put their own pukey people on the ballot. In fact I’d not be surprised if some of our “MAGA” candidates are in fact, RINO plants, encouraged to run by the RINO party leadership when they realized that Lyn Cheney (and her ilk) were hopelessly compromised as effective candidates. The best way for them to deal with the opposition, of course, is to run it themselves.
Running good candidates is only HALF of the battle!
SPECIAL SECTION: Message For Our “Friends” In The Middle Kingdom
I normally save this for near the end, but…basically…up your shit-kicking barbarian asses. Yes, barbarian! It took a bunch of sailors in Western Asia to invent a real alphabet instead of badly drawn cartoons to write with. So much for your “civilization.”
Yeah, the WORLD noticed you had to borrow the Latin alphabet to make Pinyin. Like with every other idea you had to steal from us “Foreign Devils” since you rammed your heads up your asses five centuries ago, you sure managed to bastardize it badly in the process.

Biden Gives Us Too Much Credit
…we can move on to the next one.
Apparently Biden (or his puppeteer) has decided we’re to blame for all of the fail in the United States today.
Sorry to disappoint you Joe (or whoever), but you managed to do that all on your own; not only that, you wouldn’t let us NOT give you the chance because you insisted on cheating your way into power.
Yep, you-all are incompetent, and so proud of it you expect our applause for your sincerity. Fuck that!!
It wouldn’t be so bad, but you insist that everyone else have to share in your misery. Nope, can’t have anyone get out from under it. Somehow your grand vision only works if every single other person on earth is forced to go along. So much as ONE PERSON not going along is enough to make it all fail, apparently.
In engineering school we’re taught that a design that has seven to eight billion single points of failure…sucks.
Actually, we weren’t taught that. Because it would never have occurred to the professors to use such a ridiculous example.
Justice Must Be Done.
The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.
Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

Spot Prices
All prices are Kitco Ask, 3PM MT Friday (at that time the markets close for the weekend).
Everything trending down. I don’t think I’ve seen palladium or rhodium this low in a long, long time. And those are likely to be good economic indicators as their uses are industrial.
Hyperbolic Orbits
We now turn to the remaining two-body case, the hyperbolic orbit. This is the sort of orbit an object is in whenever it is moving at above escape velocity.
You get a hyperbola whenever you slice through both “halves” of a cone. It doesn’t have to be vertically as shown in this diagram, the plane just has to be “vertical” enough in the diagram to not miss one of the two “halves” of the cone.
More formally, it’s going to look like this:
Note that this curve has two parts. An orbit will only be one of these two lines–the other is physically meaningless–and the focus for that line (F1 if it’s the right line, F2 if it’s the left) will be where the primary is. You can sketch a hyperbola by crossing two lines (the asymptotes) as in the diagram, then drawing a curve that never quite reaches the asymptotes (it gets closer and closer without ever reaching it, which is where the term “asymptotic” appears, as in “Trump’s administration asymptotically approached being able to actually arrest one of the people in the Deep State”) on either the left or right side of the X. Actually a not-uncommon trick is to draw a rectangle, make the crossed lines the diagonals of the rectangle, then sketch the hyperbola, with the vertex touching the middle of the sides of the rectangle. That point where it touches (and is closest to the focus) is the vertex and of course corresponds to periapsis. Apoapsis is at the ends of the line…which is infinitely far away. Mathematically speaking one end of the line is infinitely far in the past, the other infinitely far in the future, but of course in reality the object has to have come into being more recently than that, and closer than infinity, too.
Another way to draw a hyperbola is to graph the function 1/x. At 0, it’s undefined (or infinite, if you want to stretch a point), the line drops down from infinity until it reaches x=1, y=1, then zooms off to the right…but never reaches y=0. Though it can get so close you’d never be able to tell it wasn’t straight there. The asymptotes are the X and Y axes, and of course the thing is tilted at a 45 degree angle counterclockwise to the one in the diagram above.
And yet another way is to plot all of the points, whose distance from F1 minus their distance from F2 is some constant…and that constant is the distance between the vertices, or 2a. (And a here functions in many ways identically to the a in an elliptical orbit.) This is weirdly analogous to an ellipse, where the sum of the distances from any point on the ellipse to both foci is 2a.
The net effect of a “flyby” on a hyperbola is the object’s direction of travel is bent at some angle (the angle between the two asymptotes). To try to make this visualizable, imagine you are that object, just zipping along through space. If not interfered with, you’ll go in a straight line, at a constant speed (no friction to slow you down). But as it happens some large object (a star, say) is almost in your path. As you get closer and closer, it is pulling you towards it, so you speed up, and you pull off your path a bit; as you get closer and closer, you move faster and are pulled more and more off that straight line you were moving along. Then you fly past it. At that moment you’ve been bent pretty far off your former straight line path, and you are moving really, really fast. But now the process runs in reverse; the object pulling at you almost from behind slows you down and bends your path even more…but once you’re far away, you’re back to traveling a straight line, and nearly constant speed. But it’s a new straight line; the star bent your path.
You can determine whether or not you are in a hyperbolic orbit by measuring your speed and distance from the primary; just plug that distance into the escape velocity formula from last week; if your speed with respect to the primary is higher than that, you’re in a hyperbolic orbit, and you will escape from that primary. And furthermore, this is the only time you’ll encounter it. (To know the exact trajectory an object will follow, of course we will need its direction at that time, best determined with multiple measurements.)
This was famously demonstrated by ‘Oumuamua, an object that zipped through our solar system in a hyperbolic orbit back in 2017. It came from some other star, or maybe from the interstellar void. It was the first time we detected anything like that. It was discovered by the Pan-STARRS telescope on Maui (which spends a lot of time searching for comets and asteroids). ‘Oumuamua is the Hawai’ian word for “scout,” which was a perfect choice.
Here is a video AND a static diagram.
And here is another view…zoomed out quite a bit, Neptune’s orbit at about 30 AU is visible, whereas before Mars at 1.52 AU is the outer orbit in the diagram above. Mars is red in both diagrams. In the diagram below ‘Oumuamua is about to leave the upper left side of the picture. Also note the vertical lines which help give you a sense of ‘depth’ looking at the picture. The lines end at the plane of the planets’ orbits.
Here, from Wikipedia, are the orbital elements plus a few other things. The “epoch” for this is the 23rd of November 2017. (Other objects will pull on ‘Oumuamua and alter its orbit…I’ll have more to say about that sort of thing in future posts.)
An AU is the average distance between the Earth and the sun, so basically this thing got four times closer to the sun than Earth does; this was inside the orbit of Mercury. Note the inclination, the longitude of the ascening node, the argument of perihelion, all explained in past posts. And the eccentricity is greater than 1, just like for any hyperbola. The kicker, though, is the average orbital speed…26.33 kilometers per second. But that was its speed “way out there” (‘Oumuamua will spend 99.99999999999% of its existence out there) not its speed as it flew by the sun! Its maximum speed was 87.71 kilometers every second. To put that in perspective, earth’s orbital speed is about 29.7 kilometers per second. When it was the same distance from the sun as Earth is, it was moving at 49.67 km/sec–comfortably above the escape velocity here which is about 40 km/sec.
This encounter bent ‘Oumuamua’s straight line trajectory by 66 degrees.
Even at its interstellar speed of 26.33 kilometers per second, it covers 5.5 AU in a year, which means it covers the distance from the Sun to Jupiter (5.2 au) in less than a year.
The MOID numbers are how close the line of the orbit of ‘Oumuamua comes to the line of orbit of Earth and Jupiter. This is not how close the asteroid came to either planet though, because when ‘Oumuamua was closest to those orbits, those planets were nowhere near that point in their orbits. (MOID is used to assess the possible future risk of a collision. When both objects are in elliptical orbits and keep coming back to the same place time after time, they could, sometime perhaps millions of years from now, be at the points nearest each other’s orbits at the same time.)
‘Oumuamua turns out to be quite a puzzler. They’re not sure what it is made of; it didn’t outgas much like a comet would, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t made largely of ices; nitrogen ice is a candidate. And we simply don’t know whether it formed near some other star and got ejected from that star’s planetary system, or whether it might have coalesced deep in the interstellar void far from any star. (Wikipedia has more info than I have time this evening to read, much less relate.)
And that touches on a topic. I’ve described these orbits as if they will persist forever. They would, actually, if only there were just two bodies–primary and satellite–involved (there would be a minuscule amount of energy slowly radiated away by gravity waves, an effect not accounted for in Kepler’s and Newton’s work, but that is immeasurable over billions of years for planets and the like).
So how do things get ‘ejected’ from planetary systems? How do comets get kicked into the central part of the solar system where they get to play pinball with planets? How do comets’ orbits get altered so they are short period comets that come back again and again every few years or decades?
One answer, that applies mainly to comets is that as they heat up and outgas, the jet of gas acts like a rocket and nudges the comet into a slightly different orbit.
But that’s not the full explanation, nor even one that applies in all but a minority of cases (though it did affect ‘Oumuamua).
Satellites in orbit around Earth will be affected by the equatorial bulge; this effect can sometimes make 500 miles’ difference after one day of orbiting. The bulge affects, and is very definitely acted on by, the moon. But those effects are small for large orbits, like those of the planets around the sun.
No the real explanation is that there are more than two bodies in the universe, and sometimes that can make a big difference. And, just to make life interesting, those calculations are very time-intensive to do. (As the joke goes, “This is why God made computers.”)
We’ll take that up next time.
Obligatory PSAs and Reminders
China is Lower than Whale Shit
Remember Hong Kong!!!
中国是个混蛋 !!! Zhōngguò shì gè hùndàn !!! China is asshoe !!!
China is in the White House
Since Wednesday, January 20 at Noon EST, the bought-and-paid for His Fraudulency Joseph Biden has been in the White House. It’s as good as having China in the Oval Office.
Joe Biden is Asshoe
China is in the White House, because Joe Biden is in the White House, and Joe Biden is identically equal to China. China is Asshoe. Therefore, Joe Biden is Asshoe.
But of course the much more important thing to realize:
Joe Biden Didn’t Win
乔*拜登没赢 !!! Qiáo Bài dēng méi yíng !!! Joe Biden didn’t win !!!
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know That you had left us with armor in tow We had no idea with what you dealt We did not know the pain you felt And now we can only imagine With you what really did happen Cause rarely did you complain And/or share your personal pain Of one thing we are most certain You are flying high behind the curtain Watching over us above the crowds Our Warrior Angel above the clouds Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us While you were here among the fuss We miss you dear you have no idea Since time began in the pangaea With you there was no time In your wisdom you would chime To clarify and magnify The what where how and why We did not question when you left We were not slightly bereft But over time we wondered why You did not at least stop by Now we know where you have gone With the break of this new dawn We could be angry but are not Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear Send us a sign that you are near A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain From your love do not refrain God sends Angels to watch over us And now we have an Angel Plus A Warrior Angel of Magnificence From today and forward hence
Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1
Never talk about committing violence in a reply to Wolf or in response to anything Wolf has said, or you may get put into moderation so that your comments can be screened. This is ONLY because DHS is now playing door-knock Gestapo with people who have spoken at school board meetings, made public comments, etc. DHS regime jackboots are knocking on doors of school board mama bears and stupidly insinuating potential violence from things people say or don’t say on social media. A guy in Ohio pointed his FINGER at the school board, and they went after him, armed with pictures of the pointing, and screen captures of online comments. Yeah.
SO – give the Nazis ZERO ammo. Keep any mention of violence, even joking, away from Wolf, so that he doesn’t have to “explain” humor to humorless jackboots who pretend not to know things.
As for discussion of “violent humor” among yourselves (e.g., “#TeamHeadsOnPikes”), just use whatever discretion you think is appropriate for yourselves. I will only put you in moderation if your comments create problems for ME or THIS SITE, but not if they only impact you.
YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..
OTHER THAN THAT…….
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
Don’t let UFOs and Chinese spy balloons distract you from the fact a US President ordered Russian pipelines be blown up without notifying Congress then misled the American people about it, risking WWIII to defend a corrupt nation where his son Hunter raked in millions of dollars
And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the DayYear Week:
CRISPR
noun
Clustered Regularly-Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats
A naturally occurring mechanism found in bacteria that involves the retention of fragments of foreign DNA, providing the bacteria with some immunity to viruses. The system is sometimes referred to as CRISPR/Cas9 to denote the entire gene-editing platform in which RNA homologous with the targeted gene is combined with Cas9 (CRISPR Associated Protein 9), which is a DNA-cutting enzyme (nuclease) to form the “toolkit” for the CRISPR/Cas9 method of genome editing.
Wolf’s explanation: ZoneAlarm / McAfee for bacterial genes against IRL viruses. The bacteria keep a special library of virus crap, then look for it in the genome and “quarantine” (slice) any infected DNA at the bad spot.
Cas9
noun
CRISPR Associated Protein 9
A specialized enzyme known as a nuclease that has the ability to cut DNA sequences. Cas9 makes up part of the “toolkit” for the CRISPR/Cas9 method of genome editing.

This article was sparked by things Burning Bright and Just Human said in Defected Ep 12 – Sun 9:00 PM EST – 2/5/23 (3hrs 30 min.)
Rough Transcript of interesting parts:
34 – 40 minutes: “…some partnership with elements in our military and in China to expose the Deep States in both countries, as cartoonish as that sounds… 6 to 8 years ago the Democrats were warm and fuzzy with China and THAT HAS SHIFTED… Why is China not treating Joe so nice? …. Trump’s Ex Orders are still in place, banning Chinese companies [goes in to a list] …China is also not happy with Trudeau either…
Just Human and Burning Bright then discuss the Chinese Balloon as a ‘Narrative – Story’ that seeds the idea in normie minds that Biden is NOT keeping the USA safe. This is in conjunction with the Twitter files showing over and over again that the MSM LIED. [I think this is why Matt Tiabbi and other decent Lefty journalists were picked to tell the story. The right does not need convincing NORMIES and THE LEFT OF CENTER DO. -GC] This is ALSO while McCarthy changes house rules and kicks Chinese spies off the intel committee and a special counsel is appointed to look into Biden’s classified Docs. Another narrative is Biden’s push to get the USA into a war with Russia.
@ 1 hour Burning Bright (BB) then says he has written about ‘scare event theories’ such as the balloon or even worse a nuclear scare. he believes this maybe the beginning of a ‘Crisis Cascade’ that will jar the sleepers into being receptive to new ideas. aka ‘The Great Awakening’ He the talks of the Enemy using ‘trauma’ like 9/11 to shock the psychological state thus allowing new ideas. Ideas that make people feel SAFE [Think giving up our rights via the ‘Patriot’ act – GC] BB believes patriots are turning that around and using it on the Deep State and the balloon narrative is just the beginning.
@ 1:03:20 (BB) says the narrative is Russia and China are ‘Evil Empires’ and they are friends. He does not believe that. He thinks it is the Deep States in those countries and ours that are evil They are the same. [THINK ReichsWEF] he says we need to quit talking about Russia is good or bad, China is good or bad, the USA is good or bad…. How do normies now feel about those evil ‘enemies’ getting bolder and bolder and bolder since you put the buffoon in office? He thinks there will be a crisis cascade involving financial, economic and other things that are going to destablize on Joe Biden’s watch…
@ 1:30:30 Apple moving semi-conductor manufacturing to AZ and up state NY. This is due to China and Biden policies. Given the timing of breaking ground until opening doors, the opening will be in ~2025 when hopefully Trump is President again. BB thinks this is the biggest Devolution Proof. Apple the largest company in the world, is being FORCED to adopt Trump era Ex. Orders. Just Human adds these are generational decisions and are made because ‘Nothing Can Stop What is Coming’
@ 1:38:30 BB – “…Fortune 500 companies are being Forced by Ex Order… the semi conductor thing is where I see the actual sauce of an alliance between elements within China and White hats in the US. BECAUSE these deals REQUIRE BOTH SIDES!” Ex orders BY CHINA Joe PLUS TARIFFS PLACED BY XI ON US SEMI-CONDUCTOR PRODUCTION IN CHINA!….”
This is where things get very very interesting.
@ 1:39:30 Burning Bright says: “…My percolating theory is in China there are regional magistrates, that are essentially governors who are LEGACY FAMILIES. They have enormous control historically in China. Think of what we were given a glimpse of during Covid, of our governors but if they were almost kings unto themselves. That’s how it really works in China. I have been exploring their political history. And Xi has been doing a lot to change that. And to pull a lot of that regional power into the executive. And whats funny… is the media sometimes tells you the truth by accident. So a lot of the media fear mongering about China right now and about President XI, is the fact he is nationalizing a lot of power and he is taking power from the regional magistrates and transferring it to the Executive branch. And Xi is saying I am transferring it to the people who are voting for me, just like Trump said… and these magistrates HAD THEIR OWN STANDING ARMIES…I didn’t know this until recently. It was all regional armies, Xi is the one who put them under an executive branch…”
@ 1:41:10 Just Human brings up the point that these regional armies are why China is so militant. It is baked in. That the regional magistrates are who crack down on people…
@ 1:42:00 BB says he thinks Xi PLAYED the globalists. The media was cheering Xi several years ago and is now saying Xi centralizing power is BAD. Xi is the one who coined the term multipolar world order not Putin. That is NOT a globalist World Order. Xi wants REGIONAL power structures. BB knows an American in China and his region did not get locked down…. You have been seeing regions like Shanghai were really really bad. And what’s funny is when you dig into all the arrests… of CCP members, most of them are happening in Shanghai. Shanghai standing committees, Shanghai regional government. A lot of the people in these kind of regions are the ones who have been arrested and put before committees. I could be wrong and Xi is consolidating power to launch a war against the USA but the moves he is make seem to me … he is forcing these American Super Corporations out of his country. Covid and the lockdowns allowed China to cut off trade. To break the supply chains which wasn’t good initially. There is short term pain associated with that. Just like there was for us…. But now a lot of that stuff is being on-shored which is a good thing. Which is a long term good thing. You need to turn that around and think of it from China’s perspective as well… China can produce all it’s own stuff. The only reason they have needed us is because Chinese Oligarchs and these regional magistrates, these legacy families, they have owned everything. They have had this slave labor going on…. I think we could be heading towards a place where places like Russia and China are starting to nationalize, get rid of this American Oligarchy and what will hopefully be happening is the growth of real middle classes…. What sparked this thought is Xi is not putting tariffs on the United States but on specific companies….
@ 1:45:40 Just Human: We have tariffs on specific Chinese companies but we also have Chinese companies Red listed and Black listed and those have EXPENDED UNDER BIDEN…. It makes me wonder if the deals the Bidens had were with Xi or with these Chinese regional powers…. And Xi cut the strings to those regional powers….
@ 1:46:30 Burning Bright: …What about all the information that has leaked out of China about the Bidens…
>>>>>>>>>
Some interesting tidbits. Xi had Obama exit out of the ass end of the plane while Trump was not only given the red carpet treatment, he was allowed in the Forbidden City and treated to a banquet. (THINK NO SPY DEVICES) Trump had Xi visit the Southern White House, Mar-a-Lago. (THINK NO SPY DEVICES) Trump had interpreters BANNED from speaking to anyone about the content of his meetings with Putin. He also had a one-on-one meeting with NO interpreters. All three of these men are ‘MY NATION FIRST’ nationalists and not globalists. Burning Bright calls this the Sovereign Alliance.
May 20, 2017: The Chinese government “systematically dismantled” CIA spying operations in the country starting in late 2010 and killed or imprisoned at least a dozen CIA sources over the next two years, it was reported on Saturday….
The number of CIA assets lost in China rivaled those lost in the Soviet Union and Russia as a result of the betrayals by CIA officer Aldrich Ames and FBI agent Robert Hanssen, who were arrested in 1994 and 2001 respectively, the report said.
As many as 20 CIA sources were killed or imprisoned in China over a two-year period, the Times said, citing two former senior US officials.… Mr Xi became president in 2013, and quickly consolidated personal power while cementing China as the regional superpower.
He also fought corruption, punishing more than a million party members – which has helped his popularity among some.
At the same time, however, China has clamped down on many emerging freedoms, increasing its state surveillance and censorship programs. Critics also say Mr Xi has used the anti-corruption purge to sideline political rivals….
The Guardian
We know the CIA is part of the Deep State and seems to be working FOR the World Economic Forum and NOT the usa.
March 11, 2018 ….Only five years ago Beijing was being ruled by a collective leadership. Under ex-President Hu Jintao you could imagine differing views being expressed in the then nine-member Politburo Standing Committee….
US President Donald Trump was criticised by some commentators for seeming to approve of Mr Xi’s unlimited rule, saying on Monday: “President for life… I think it’s great. Maybe we’ll have to give that a shot some day.”
BBC
Just Human noted that while POTUS Trump has bashed China he has NEVER criticized Xi. He calls him a ‘Great Friend’ and ‘I respect him very much’… @ 1:54:30
June 15, 1953 – XI IS BORN Xi Jinping is born in Beijing a “princeling” child of an official. His father, Xi Zhongxun, fought in the Communist revolution and later served as an official, rising to become a liberal-minded vice premier. The young Xi grew up among the party elite but saw his father purged and later jailed during the 1966-76 Cultural Revolution, only to be rehabilitated and allowed back into government after Mao’s death. [Xi would have been 13 when his father was jailed – GC]
1974 – PARTY MAN After being sent to work in the poverty-stricken countryside, in Shaanxi province, as a teenager during the Cultural Revolution, Xi joins the Communist Youth League and then, in 1974, the party, at the age of about 21.
Sept. 9, 1976 – MAO DIES Mao Zedong, the “Great Helmsman”, dies at the age of 82. Xi is 23 and a chemical engineering student [I do not know about China but Chem Eng is rated one of the hardest college degree courses – #4 – in the USA. This means Xi is brilliant. – GC] at Tsinghua University. China goes into mourning and Hua Guofeng, Mao’s handpicked successor, takes over. For a time, Hua is treated like Mao, but he is eventually sidelined by Deng Xiaoping who sets China on a more practical, less dogmatic, path.
REUTERS
So as a teen, Xi watched his father be jailed and went from being a pampered ‘princeling’ to most likely being a farm worker. This man is NOT dumb so he kept his head down, and joined the Communist Youth League and then, in 1974, the Communist party. He is rewarded by being allowed to become a chem engineering student, despite the jailing of his father.
A passage from an essay by the Australian defense analyst Paul Monk is very telling on the subject of what President Xi intends for Asia’s near future:
In any case, Xi Jinping, despite his genial smile, good English, and familiarity with the United States, is no reforming liberal. Shortly after assuming the presidency, he took all the members of his politburo with him to the bizarre museum the Party has built in Tiananmen Square – the museum of national humiliation and revival. He pointed out to them the exhibits showing the arrival of the Jesuits via Macao in the sixteenth century and how this had been the beginning of the infiltration and humiliation of China by the West. He pointed out the exhibits showing the Japanese invasions of China and making the unfounded assertion that the Japanese were defeated by the Communist Party with a little help from “good” Nationalist generals. The Americans, he said, then became the enemy. “Against this external enemy,” he told China’s inner group of top leaders, “we must stick together.”
…It all started with the British discovering an ingenious trading system to reduce the empire’s mounting trade deficit after the conquest of India in the 18th century. By 1790, the deficit had risen to £28 million and swelled much beyond it by 1820, when the British trading community and the government found the perfect solution for the situation: Indian opium. Taking advantage of Chinese fondness for the Indian variety, British merchants bribed Chinese officials to allow entry of chests of opium shipped from British-ruled India, though such imports had long been banned by imperial decree in China. Between 1800 and 1818, the average annual traffic of opium to China was 4,000 chests (with each chest containing about 64 kilograms of opium); by 1831, the number of chests touched 20,000; and by 1840, when the British East India Company had lost its monopoly on the trade and the market was full of private merchants, the sales touched nearly 40,000.
An attempt by the Chinese authorities to control the trade at the port of Canton by destroying large consignments of opium and publicly executing drug merchants resulted in a massive British army from India invading China, running through Canton and seizing the tax barges on the Yangtze. The blow proved disastrous. The Treaty of Nanjing signed in 1842 forced China to pay an indemnity to Britain and open four ports to it, and give up Hong Kong to the Queen. The Second Opium War (1856-1860), led by an Anglo-French coalition, ended in further ignominy for the Chinese: Beijing’s famed Old Summer Palace was gutted as a reprisal for the torture of a British mediation team; the treaties signed to conclude the war forced China to open full-scale trading relations with the West, legalise opium trade throughout the country, cede Kowloon and pay a total indemnity of 5 million ounces of silver to the British and the French…
Let’s take a quick look at the USA, especially the Federal Reserve.
(This is no longer available on Google/duck-duck-go but Yandex will bring it up… Hmmmmm) ….”These twelve private credit monopolies were deceitfully and disloyally foisted upon this Country by the bankers who came here from Europe and repaid us our hospitality by undermining our American institutions. Those bankers took money out of this Country to finance Japan in a war against Russia. They created a reign of terror in Russia with our money in order to help that war along. They instigated the separate peace between Germany and Russia, and thus drove a wedge between the allies in World War. They financed Trotsky’s passage from New York to Russia so that he might assist in the destruction of the Russian Empire. They fomented and instigated the Russian Revolution, and placed a large fund of American dollars at Trotsky’s disposal in one of their branch banks in Sweden so that through him Russian homes might be thoroughly broken up and Russian children flung far and wide from their natural protectors. They have since begun breaking up of American homes and the dispersal of American children….
Congressman McFadden
Kinda makes you wonder if the FED Bankers also financed the Japanese War against China to allow the Communist to win there too.
….Tokyo’s largest contribution to Chinese nationalism was the invasion of Manchuria and the second Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945). As two scholars put it, “the plain historical fact [is] that modern Chinese nationalism emerged above all in reaction to Japanese imperialism.” Indeed, in the run-up to the second war, China remained deeply divided along regional, ethnic and ideological grounds. All these disparate actors united immediately prior to the war in hopes that they could defend the country from Japan. The brutality of Japan’s occupation further ingrained Chinese nationalism into the national consciousness. In doing so, Japan made it possible for Mao and the CCP to unify China after the Chinese Civil War (1945-1949)….
Before the second Sino-Japanese War commenced, the Communist Party was locked in a death struggle with Chiang Kai-shek and the KMT. The CCP fared poorly in this conflict, suffering repeated defeats at the hands of the Nationalists.
By the end of 1934, the CCP was on the verge of extinction after KMT troops delivered another heavy blow to the Red Army in Jiangxi Province, which forced the party to undertake the now infamous Long March to Xi’an in the northwestern province of Shaanxi. Chiang initially pursued the Communist forces, and would have almost certainly delivered a final blow to the CCP if war with Japan could have been delayed. As it turned out, Chiang was not able to put off the war with Japan any longer, and domestic and international pressure forced him to accept a tacit alliance with the CCP against Japan.

Congressional Record
Getting back to China, the Brits and opium, Brian Cates wondered how the Triads fit in. After all, just like in the USA today, you need local suppliers to serve as middlemen and gangs fit the bill very nicely.
(Mullins is the author of The Secrets of the Federal Reserve)
…In 1715 the British East India Co. opened its first Far East office in Canton. Crown Policy deliberately fostered opium addiction among the natives to facilitate British political control. The British Empire was then threatened with bankruptcy if it lost the American colonies. In order to defeat the rebels, the profits of the opium trade with China were sent to the Elector of Hesse via Mayer Amschel Rothschild to hire 16,800 Hessian troops. Thus the drug traffic and the Rothschilds played a pivotal role in American history, although it has been ignored or deleted from the history books.
David Ricardo, father of the quantity theory of money and the “rent”, or loot theory, was on the Court of Proprietors of the East India Co. He had John Stuart Mill appointed as Chief Examiner. The colonial minister of England during the Opium Wars was Edward Bulwer Lytton, who wrote the Treaty of Nanking in 1842, bringing England E21 million in silver and control over the free port of Hong Kong. Britain then allied with the Hong Society, the Triads and Assassins, to rule the Chinese to the present time. Bulwer Lytton’s son was Viceroy of India during the 1880s at the height of the opium trade, and sponsored Rudyard Kipling’s writings about the British Raj in India. The profiteers from the drug trade included William, Earl of Shelburne, who organized Britain’s first Intelligence Service, whose agents were drawn from Britain’s leading families. Its chairman was George Baring, and it employed Adam Smith, Jeremy Bentham, and Thomas Malthus. [The Malthusian Theory of Population is a theory of exponential population growth and arithmetic food supply growth.] The Geneva headquarters was run by the Mallet Prevost family, whose descendants include Allen Dulles of the CIA. Basil Lubbock’s work, The Opium Clippers, 1933, lists the principal owners of British vessels engaged in the opium trade, with color illustrations of their flags. Most of them were ex-slavers. [A listing follows]….
Red China’s mutterings about taking over Hong Kong when the present lease expires in 1997 allows insiders of the World Order opportunity to increase their fortunes in the volatile Hong Kong real estate market. Red China has to allow the British to operate in this trading area to assure the supply of hard currency from the drug trade. When the British took over this trading area in 1843, they maintained control of the local population through the Triads, the Assassins, as the Hong Society was known, also called the Honorable Society, and the Society of Heaven, Earth and Man. Dan E. Mayers wrote in Fortune, Aug.6, 1984, “British colonial rule in Hong Kong is not democracy. Britain rules by decree in all matters of importance. Hong Kong Chinese don’t have democratic rights.”
Opium began as a cash crop in the poppy-fields of Asia Minor, particularly in Turkey, where it is still an important crop today. In 1516, opium was the official monopoly of the Great Mogul in Kuch Behar. When opium reached China, about 1729, Emperor Yung Chen prohibited its use. In 1757, with Clive’s great victory at Plassy, the East India Co. took over the opium monopoly as part of its spoils from the Indian Moguls. When the British promoted the use of East India’s opium in China, as payment for raw materials needed by their Industrial Revolution (they had been paying in silver), the Emperor Tao Kwang repeatedly warned them to stop selling opium in his country. When these warnings were ignored, the Emperor burned 20,291 chests of opium in 1830, a hoard valued at 2 million pounds. This precipitated the British Opium Wars of 1839-42 and 1856-60…
Criminal gangs are found throughout China but are most active in Shanghai, Tianjin, Shenyang and Guangzhou as well as Hong Kong. The number of people involved in organized crime on the mainland has risen from around 100,000 in 1986 to around 1.5 million in 2000…
Triads are the most well-known organized crime group in China, Hong Kong and Macao. In addition to them are other large organized crime gangs. The Big Circles is a loose alliance of criminal gangs founded by former Red Guards of the Cultural Revolution. Their individual names refer to the detention centers where they were “re-educated.” They are active in snakehead human trafficking and other criminal operations….
The Triads are believed to control an empire worth many billions of dollars. The largest and most powerful Triad, Sun Yee On, is believed to have 40,000 members. The unnamed “Dragon Head” of Kong Sun Yee On, was named on Asiaweek’s list of the 50 most powerful people in Asia.
Sun Yee On is believed to be particularly well connected with the Hong Kong tycoons and Communist party elite. One high-level Communist official even referred to them as “patriotic.” The second and third largest Triads respectively are Who Sing Who and 14K (14 stands for the road number of a former headquarters and K stands for Kowloon)…
This makes me wonder if the ‘Legacy Families’ especially in Shanghai, are connected to the Triads. It would help explain Xi’s targeting that area.
The apparent appearance of hired thugs, probably from Guangdong organised crime gangs, on the streets of Hong Kong harassing the democracy movement has been blamed on the Mainland Chinese government’s tendency to use such people to stir up trouble and chaos at everything from property development disputes (beating residents slow to leave) to labour strikes (beating up workers) in recent years. As well as a rather handy non-uniformed enforcement body, the thugs provide the government with the opportunity to claim divisions within society and justify the need for state forces to step in to stop the chaos. Some in the foreign media and casual observers have found this tactic hard to understand and difficult to countenance. However, there is a long history of China’s post-1911 governments using triads, gangs and hired thugs to intervene and either stir up, or repress, volatile situations and deal with perceived “enemies” of the state. The roots of the triads and other secret societies mostly reach back anti-Qing organisations, but we don’t need to go quite that far back…
So let’s go back to 1927….and Shanghai….
To cut a long story short (Chinese history stories are always long of course) Chiang Kai-shek, at the end of his Northern Expedition, wished to purge Shanghai of communists, leftists and unions. He needed help in the International Settlement and Frenchtown where his troops could not freely roam (as the PLA cannot in Hong Kong). The Green Gang and Red Gang offered to help….
The savage beating of Hong Kong protesters by a mob of triad gangsters has deepened fears about the city’s notorious criminal gangs and the use of shadowy hired muscle to defend China’s interests. At least 45 people were hospitalised after Sunday’s attack when men armed with poles and rods assaulted anti-government protesters in the rural town of Yuen Long as they returned from another huge rally.
In a city that prides itself on a reputation for safety the scenes caused outrage and fear. They also offered a glimpse into an underworld that has long stalked the city. For seasoned watchers of Hong Kong and its shadowy nexus of organised crime, the brazen beatings came as little surprise.
In recent years, analysts say, there has been a growing tendency for thugs to target perceived threats to Beijing — in Hong Kong, on the Chinese mainland and even in Taiwan.
“When the Communist Party of China finds it inconvenient for it to do something, it will use those gangsters on its behalf,” local Hong Kong political analyst Dixon Sing told AFP….
Secret societies are not always criminal enterprises, but triad societies are by definition criminal in Hong Kong and have been the basis of organised criminal gangs. Triad and secret societies are useful criminal platforms because of their secrecy and rituals, which are a means of ensuring that the triad or secret society is enduring in the face of enforcement and suppression by the authorities.
Triads and secret societies have at times reached an accommodation with the authorities, including the Kuomintang, the British and Japanese occupying Hong Kong, and the Communist Party of China. The Kuomintang and the CPC have based their legitimacy on the principle of unifying China, which resonates with the origins of triad societies in “Faan Qing Fuk Ming”, deposing the Manchu Qing dynasty and restoring the Han Chinese Ming dynasty. Some have joined triad and secret societies for opportunist reasons, for instance Chiang Kai Shek’s membership of the Green Gang seems likely to have been for personal advancement and to make use of the gang’s power. The membership of Dr. Sun Yat Sen of multiple secret societies is more complex as most were dedicated to or were vehicles to overthrow the Qing dynasty, and hence his motives were nationalistic.
Triads became established as a tool of the Nationalists before and after the 1911 revolution. Some triads prospered in Hong Kong during the Japanese occupation from 1941 and continued their criminal business after liberation in 1945. From the 1990s triads seem to have been acknowledged as acceptable to China as part of the CPC United Front.
In this context, triad and secret societies have often considered themselves patriotic, but this has at least in the 20th and 21st centuries been an accommodation with political powers that could facilitate the underlying criminal businesses of triad societies. Patriotism has been a pretext for some triad and secret societies and has hence contributed to the enduring existence of triad societies into the 21st century.

I would hazard a guess that some of those ‘Old Established Families’ Burning Bright mentions are the heads of Triads who made their fortunes via the Brits and the Opium Trade. I think the Communists and the Triads came to an agreement under Mao.
It is 169 pages. A skim through it shows the plans of the Committee of 300 and today’s events show how they are coming true. It also dovetails with my own research that connects The British East India Company, the Opium Wars with control of China today.
FOREWORD
In my career as a professional intelligence officer, I had many occasions to access highly classified documents, but during service as a political science officer in the field in Angola, West Africa, I had the opportunity to view a series of top secret classified documents which were unusually explicit. What I saw filled me with anger and resentment and launched me on a course from which I have not deviated, namely to uncover what power it is that controls and manages the British and United States governments….
,,,The drug trade is controlled by the Committee of 300 from the Top down. The drug trade started with the British East India Company and was closely followed by the Dutch East India Company. Both were controlled by a “Council of 300.” The list of names of members and stockholders of the BEIC read like something out of Debretts Peerage. BEIC established the “China Inland Mission,” whose job it was to get The Chinese peasants, or coolies, as they were called, addicted to opium. This created the market for opium which the BEIC then filled.
In much the same way the Committee of 300 used “The “Beatles” to popularize “social drugs” with the youth of America and The Hollywood “in-crowd.” ….
…The truth is that the supply of opium to China was a British monopoly, an OFFICIAL monopoly of the British government and official British policy. The Indo-British opium trade in China was one of the best kept secrets…
…These addicts did not suddenly materialize out of thin air, any more than did teenager addicts in the U.S. THE POINT TO REMEMBER IS THAT BOTH WERE CREATED….
….The BEIC is gone but the descendants of the Council of 300 linger on in the membership of the Committee of 300. The oldest of the oligarchical British families who were leaders in the opium trade for the past 200 years are still in it today. Take the Mathesons, for instance. This “noble” family is one of the pillars of the opium trade. When things looked a bit shaky a few years ago, the Mathesons stepped in and gave China a loan of $300 million for real estate investment.
The lucrative drug trade is one of the worst examples of making money out of human misery; the other being the legal drug trade run by the pharmaceutical drug houses under Rockefeller ownership, in the U.S. for the most part, but with substantial companies operating in Switzerland, France and Britain and fully backed by the American Medical Association (AMA). The dirty dope transactions and the money it generates flows through the City of London, together with Hong Kong, Dubai and latterly, Lebanon…
[It goes on to quote H.G. Wells —] ” … a One World Government rather well described by one of its late members, H. G. Wells, in his work commissioned by the Committee which Wells boldly called: “THE OPEN CONSPIRACY– PLANS FOR A WORLD REVOLUTION.”…”
At least 4 billion “useless eaters” shall be eliminated by the year 2050 by means of limited wars, organized epidemics of fatal rapid-acting diseases and starvation. Energy, food and water shall be kept at subsistence levels for the non-elite, start-ing with the White populations of Western Europe and North America and then spreading to other races. The population of Canada, Western Europe and the United States will be decimated more rapidly than on other continents, until the world’s population reaches a manageable level of 1 billion, of which 500 million will consist of Chinese and Japanese races, selected because they are people who have been regimented for centuries and who are accustomed to obeying authority without question.

Remember all of Pfizer’s Safety work is conducted in China two R&D “functions run exclusively at Wuhan and nowhere else in the world… our Wuhan teams manage the clinical trial registry information and clinical trial master files for all Pfizer’s medicines” AND Pfizer“employed 69 known members of the Chinese Communist Party.” Therefore I do not find it surprising to find China has NOT used mRNA vaccines.
People have been getting scared by the seemingly coordinated yet mysterious disasters in food production facilities. It seems like some kind of scary “phenomenon”. We suspect a human hand, but there seems to be none. It’s as if some mysterious organization like “SPECTRE” or “KAOS” is behind it. Some people have even postulated “DEWs” (directed energy weapons). That’s when I start smelling “disinformation” – likely being planted by allies of actual arsonists and saboteurs. Or is the entire thing just a media effect? Is the Fake News media just playing up “normal” industrial accidents, as a means of “information terrorism” that the media is so skilled at performing for their corporate masters?
Or maybe some of BOTH?
The first time I heard about an egg-laying facility in super-progressive New Zealand catching fire, I realized things were getting very REAL, and potentially UNREAL at the same time. Because of the years of extreme fakery and lies coming from the Ardern regime, I figured something might be up – real or not.
The second time I heard about that egg-laying facility catching fire, a thought fully formed.
I think it's coordinated employment of "climate" and "animal rights" activists who've managed to sneak into operations globally. Same mentality as the ones who attack paintings, but those attacks are a diversion. I think this was coordinated with WEF by radical groups.
I know from certain sources that the FBI was, at one time, very heavy in following the “animal rights” groups and protesters. Ironically, because FBI is extremely woke now, and because agents at a certain level pick their own cases, this enforcement has languished.
Just ask Gail Combs about the tolerance of climate and animal activists by the regime (see comments below, and references to prior posts). They are used in a one-sided war against independent operations and small farmers, on behalf of government and large corporate interests.
Part of the reason governments are not responding well to these arsons of food processors, IMO, is because they are ideologically aligned with the arsonists.
Take Canada, for instance, ruled by “Baby Castro” Trudeau – who is WEF incarnate.
The Government is hiring 'Environmental Enforcement Officers' that will be armed with batons, pepper spray, and handcuffs. This looks like a police force ready to execute search warrants if you don't follow the Government's climate laws. https://t.co/YqB2Donjfd#BowRiver#cdnpolipic.twitter.com/ZaH0RousuY
These government agencies are not looking out for us. They’re looking out for the hoaxy, insane, climate narrative, and those who benefit from it.
Anyway, I am creating this post, in part to create a nice tweetable LINK to advance the theory of INFILTRATION AND SABOTAGE/ARSON OF FOOD PROCESSING FACILITIES – likely by climate commies and animal rights activists, in coordination with WEF’s climate and “EAT ZEE BUGS” agendas.
Please feel free to add anything you’d like in the comments. I want to make sure that there is a strong PUSHBACK on these dangerous climate ninnies and their fellow animal rights crazies. Not to mention the evil, insane, and dangerous World Economic Forum, and the evil forces behind it.
If they win, we won’t just be eating bugs. We’ll be eating grass – like my mother did in World War II.
In cases of religious mass suicide/homicide, such as Jonestown, Heaven’s Gate, and Aum Shinrikyo, it is very difficult to regain a humanitarian understanding of the key participants after the infamy of defining events sears the conscience and redefines reality. Even more difficult, however, is the opposite – to BEGIN to think the unthinkable and speak …

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1
Never talk about committing violence in a reply to Wolf or in response to anything Wolf has said, or you may get put into moderation so that your comments can be screened. This is ONLY because DHS is now playing door-knock Gestapo with people who have spoken at school board meetings, made public comments, etc. DHS regime jackboots are knocking on doors of school board mama bears and stupidly insinuating potential violence from things people say or don’t say on social media. A guy in Ohio pointed his FINGER at the school board, and they went after him, armed with pictures of the pointing, and screen captures of online comments. Yeah.
SO – give the Nazis ZERO ammo. Keep any mention of violence, even joking, away from Wolf, so that he doesn’t have to “explain” humor to humorless jackboots who pretend not to know things.
As for discussion of “violent humor” among yourselves (e.g., “#TeamHeadsOnPikes”), just use whatever discretion you think is appropriate for yourselves. I will only put you in moderation if your comments create problems for ME or THIS SITE, but not if they only impact you.
YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..
OTHER THAN THAT…….
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
Here are three “placeholder” videos, selected from old Wheatie posts.
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
Attorney General Merrick Garland has assigned John Lausch, the U.S. attorney in Chicago, to review the classified papers and determine how they ended up at the Penn Biden Center.https://t.co/ADRJf3Cxch
NOTE FROM WOLF: This post is a necessary introduction to certain ideas and statements from the World Economic Forum (WEF), which I believe are indicative of their involvement in the release of SARS-CoV-2 and the high-level design of the mRNA “vaccines”, and upon which an upcoming post of mine will depend. That post will follow soon.
Apart from some minor corrections of [some] typos, and addition of categories and keywords, I have left Gail’s post untouched.

YUVAL NOAH HARARI & HUAWEI CEO REN ZHENGFEI IN CONVERSATION
This is a thirty two minute video recorded in 2020 during President Trump’s Administration. It was The World Economic Forum’s 50th Annual Meeting from 21-24 January with POTUS Trump attending. It is well worth listening to the entire video. Notice the Upbeat kumbaya feeling to the talk. I would hazard a guess that Huawei, CEO Ren Zhengfei was chosen to interface with American companies to con technology and business knowledge out of them because he is personable, intellegent and a very smooth talker. During the talk he interjects that he started out in an apartment and worked his way up. If you believe he was not CHOSEN by the CCP, I have a bridge to sell you.
Harari starts talking @ 3 minutes. He speaks of hacking humans @ 4 minutes. This was the information I was originally looking for to include in a different article.
HARARI :
You NEED A LOT OF BIOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE, A LOT OF COMPUTING POWER… and WE ARE VERY CLOSE…
REN compares AI to nuclear power. It can be good, powering civilization or bad, like nuclear bombs. He later says that US companies had a lot of input in setting up HUAWEI.
HARARI : @ 11:30 minutes Harari responses that when you use nuclear bombs, it is the end of the world. You can not win a nuclear war, AN ALL OUT NUCLEAR WAR [<— note the qualifier]… But people think they can win an AI arms race… I think the race is between Bejing and SAN FRANCISCO [NOT DC. This is interesting in light of the Twitter files -GC]
HARARI : @ 21:00 Harari talks of an AI arms race, AI directed weapons… I agree that we will not see humans and AI merge into Cyborgs in the next 20 to 30 years…. But the most important point I mention is HACKING HUMAN BEINGS, the point when you have enough data on people and you have enough computing power to get to know people better than they know themselves…. Are we at the point where HUAWEI or FACEBOOK can hack millions of people meaning knowing them better than they know themselves? Once they know…. That means they can manipulate my decisions better than me….
REN: @ 23:30 Ren’s response is interesting. He dances around the topic but admits it can be done and IMMEDIATELY goes into AI & robotics use in mining… Frozen mines at high altitude… IN BRAZIL they can use this AI … IT IS THE SAME STORY FOR REMOTE HEALTH AS WELL. He starts to talk about Homo Deus and the video is cut. It was cut in the area where he talks about manipulating people too….
The moderator then goes to questions and that is where it gets really interesting.
HARARI: @ 27:00 Harari states there is no clear weapons race in AI [why should there be when they are ALL on the same side? – GC]
TODAY IN ORDER TO CONQUER A COUNTRY YOU DO NOT NECESSARILY NEED WEAPONS
Unintelligible QUESTION… Seems to be about countries and corporations. ‘…difference between usual corporate competition…’
HARARI : @ 27:00 THERE IS NO CLEAR BORDER THERE…Like what happened in the 19th century and earlier with European imperialism. There is no border between commercial imperialism and military or political imperialism. Now with data, and we see this new phenomena of data colonialism, to control a country, let’s say in Africa, or South America, or the Middle East, just imagine a situation 20 years from now where somebody, maybe in Bejing, in Washington or San Francisco knows the entire personal, medical, sexual history of every politician, JUDGE, and JOURNALIST in BRAZIL… pause… Or in Egypt. Just imagine the situation. It is not weapons it is not soldiers, its not tanks, it is just the entire information of the next candidate for Supreme Court of the USA. Or somebody who is RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENT OF BRAZIL and they know the mental weaknesses They know something they did in college when they were 20. They know all that. Is it STILL AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY? OR IS IT A DATA COLONY? AND I THINK THAT IS THE ARMS RACE. [moderator cuts him off]
@ 29:00 Next Question from a technician: What power is left to ordinary citizens in this world?
REN: @ 29:30 Technology makes communication much easier. [Except when censored -GC] People have a deeper understanding about things around them. People are smarter and that pace is picking up. Just like us when we read text books in primary school we can not fully understand. And many of the things we used to study in university is now being studied in middle school today. I think that humanity is progressing in society and it is the people who should master the knowledge and the technology [to be good little worker bees – GC] And people mastering different skills will find different jobs. People have this initiative they can take [to be good little worker bees for the corporations – GC] They will not be enslaved. [If you are a good little serf, the Cabal is NOT going to TELL YOU you are just a free range slave. – GC]
MODERATOR: @ 30:30 Giving people MORE agency and MORE power.
REN: Yes indeed.
HARARI: @ 30: 45 I think technology can work both ways, to limit and to enhance individual abilities or agency. And what individuals can do, especially technicians, especially engineers, is to design different technology. For instance now a lot of effort is about building surveillance tools that survey individuals in the service of corporations and governments. But we, some of us can decide to build the opposite type of technology. Technology is neutral on this. You can build a tool that surveils the government and big corporations in the service of individuals. If they like surveillance so much, they wouldn’t mind citizens surveilling them. For instance you as an engineer build an AI tool that surveils government corruption or you build an anti-virus for the computer. You can build an anti-virus for the mind that alerts you when someone is trying to hack you or manipulate you. So that is up to you.
MODERATOR: We have run out of time. That is an appropriately upbeat place to end on.
DISCUSSION:
“…You can build a tool that surveils the government and big corporations in the service of individuals….”
Are you kidding me? Who is going to fund you? Look at what happened to Martin Armstrong.
This is a documentary film focusing on the story of Martin Armstrong. Once a US based trillion dollar financial adviser, used a self-built secretive and highly advanced computer with artificial intelligence that predicted economic historical turning points with full accuracy. As Armstrong’s popularity grew, government agencies suddenly became interested in his technology and his dealings with global banks and financial institutions. When some big New York bankers asked him to join the club to help them to take over Russia, he refused to join the manipulation. A while later, the FBI stormed his offices wanting the source code behind his forecasting technology but they couldn’t get a hold of it. Instead, they arrested and accused him of a 3 billion dollar Ponzi Scheme. He has since been released and still has that computer.
I just wanted to put that piece of idiocy to bed.
Next is HACKING HUMANS
Harari says:
..the most important point I mentions is HACKING HUMAN BEINGS, the point when you have enough data on people and you have enough computing power to get to know people better than they know themselves…. Are we at the point where HUAWEI or FACEBOOK can hack millions of people meaning knowing them better than they know themselves? Once they know…. That means they can manipulate my decisions better than me….
Harari goes back to the subject and says this before the Moderator cuts him off:
…just imagine a situation 20 years from now where somebody, maybe in Bejing, in Washington or San Francisco knows the entire personal, medical, sexual history of every politician, JUDGE, and JOURNALIST in BRAZIL… pause… Or in Egypt. Just imagine the situation. It is not weapons it is not soldiers, its not tanks, it is just the entire information of the next candidate for Supreme Court of the USA. Or somebody who is RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENT OF BRAZIL and they know the mental weaknesses. They know something they did in college when they were 20. They know all that. Is it STILL AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY? OR IS IT A DATA COLONY? AND I THINK THAT IS THE ARMS RACE.
I call it what it is BLACKMAIL!
Any bets that all those judges who rule people bringing cases of voter fraud had ‘No Standing’ had a WEF blackmail leash on them? And our Congress Critters and even the idiots who voted the much hated Ronna back as RNC chair?
Facebook was founded in 2004 almost 2 decades ago. Kids between 10 and 25 posting idiotic things on facebook would now be in their thirties and forties and RIPE for blackmailing.
NSA who collects our phone records, was established in 1952 under the National Security Act of 1947 along with the CIA.
…The Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002, enacted 28 December 2001, amended the National Security Act of 1947 and codified the USCG as part of the Intelligence Community AND included the admission of the United States Coast Guard [USCG] into the United States Cryptologic System…. The USCG is the only organization responsible for law enforcement, intelligence, and military activities simultaneously. Section 10 of the Authorization added the USCG as an element of the Intelligence Community and placed this organizational element on a par with those of other armed services and agencies…
Next add in the FBI grabbing Epstein’s records when Epstein was first accused of molesting dozens of underage girls in 2005 in Florida and later in 2019 in New York… Yeah lots of blackmail going on. And THAT IS WHY THE COURTS will not go after the people on EPSTEIN’S CLIENT LIST.
…How do you write a book that gets recommended by Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerburg, and President Obama? How is it that, in 2017, people regard his work as a new and unique view on the human race? A new view on the human race in 2017!…
We’ll start our journey where he started his, as an unknown historian at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
Yuval Noah Harari specialized in medieval military history. He was unpublished, unknown, and hungry for something more. He applied to Oxford in pursuit of a PhD. With some wind in his sails, he completed his Doctor of Philosophy in 4 years….
JEWISH? Huh???
And even more interesting, is HenryKissinger, who is one of the most influential Jews in American history.
The World Economic Forum wasn’t simply the brainchild of Klaus Schwab, but was actually born out of a CIA-funded Harvard program headed by Henry Kissinger and pushed to fruition by John Kenneth Galbraith and the “real” Dr. Strangelove, Herman Kahn
Galbraith was not Jewish but the third dude, Herman Kahn was the son of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. You can also toss in Victoria Nuland who is Jewish and is the daughter of Yale bioethics and medicine professor Sherwin B. Nuland, the family’s original surname being Nudelman. And Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman and his identical twin brother, Yevgeny, Jews, born in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic.
If we look at Ghislaine Maxwell, handler for Epstein, her father had alleged connections to Mossad, the intelligence agency of Israel.
Robert Maxwell was a Czechoslovak war orphan who became a billionaire, British politician and media mogul. He was known to be a friend of Israel in his lifetime, but contacts with the Mossad remain largely unexplored until his death. His daughter, Ghislaine Maxwell, worked closely with Jeffrey Epstein and after 2019 was had increasingly exposed connections to the Mossad.[1]
On the one hand you have a bunch of European or European descended Jews and on the other a bunch of NAZIS! The CIA, NATO and World Economic Forum were swarming with Nazis during their inception BUT we have PROMINENT Jews supporting them.
The only way I can make sense of that is to agree with Clif High, who I consider a bit wacky. He is adamant that “.. Khazarian name stealers…are NOT Jews, but they surround themselves with sacrificial Jews who get the bad wrap…”LINK
An invisible hand sits behind humanity, exerting control over the human will. This hidden virus scours the earth, looking for hosts who will adopt its ideology, and wage war against dissenters. You cannot leave a captivity that you cannot see.
I do not see the look into history by both Will Zoll and Clif High as being mutually exclusive. Will Zoll writes of the Hanseatic League that WIKI suggests traces back to 1159.
Hanseatic League, also called Hansa, German Hanse, organization founded by north German towns and German merchant communities abroad to protect their mutual trading interests. The league dominated commercial activity in northern Europe from the 13th to the 15th century. (Hanse was a medieval German word for “guild,” or “association,” derived from a Gothic word for “troop,” or “company.”) >> The origins of the league are to be found in groupings of traders and groupings of trading towns in two main areas: in the east, where German merchants won a monopoly of the Baltic trade, and in the west, where Rhineland merchants (especially from Cologne [Köln]) were active in the Low Countries and in England. The league came into being when those various associations coalesced…
Clif speaks of these ‘Name Stealers’ who were situated in Ukraine, a part of the trade routes between China and Europe some times called the Silk Road. He says there are tales of the ‘Name Stealers’ not only in Europe but also in China. At both ends of a trade route through Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
Compare that to a modern map
Between the 7th and 9th centuries, the Ukrainian steppe formed part of the Turkic Khazar mercantile empire, which was centred on the lower Volga River. Khazar control of the steppe was breached in the late 9th century by the Magyars (Hungarians).
[11] Astride a major artery of commerce between Eastern Europe and Southwestern Asia, Khazaria became one of the foremost trading empires of the early medieval world, commanding the western marches of the Silk Road and playing a key commercial role as a crossroad between China, the Middle East and Kievan Rus’.[12][13] For some three centuries (c. 650–965) the Khazars dominated the vast area extending from the Volga-Don steppes to the eastern Crimea and the northern Caucasus.[14]
Actually Clif High on his substack, in May of last year sent out a link to the “PrussiaGate Series” Will Zoll had by that time produced a series of over 30 essays. I strongly suggest reading the substack. It is fascinating. Or Patrick Gunnels has read a lot of the essays HERE.
The incredible history behind the formation of the World Economic Forum is founded on the vision set out by Frederick the Great centuries ago, where every aspect of a humanity would be controlled through 17,000 rules and regulations. Adolph Hitler and the Nazis disastrously tried to restore Germany back to its illustrious Prussian past. The current attempt to establish this regime globally was why the first 10 years of the ReichsWEF hosted a myriad of ex-Nazisand national leaders tied to brutal regimes, communist-ideology, and much worse.
To circumvent democratic principles, national sovereignty, and the Constitution, the ReichsWEF implemented the Young Global Leaders program to effectively penetrate government cabinets and steer nations toward the vision of Klaus Schwab and, more importantly, the matrix of globalist corporations that now serve the horrible invisible enemy that is Prussia.
And now we find they are using ‘Hacking Humans’, an extension of Fredrick the Great’s massive intelligence gathering system.
The “will” of humanity is now being powerfully tested by these globalist merchants. Our markets are being controlled; our movements are being controlled; our bodies are being controlled; our children are being controlled; our minds are being controlled. The globalists have essentially drawn the battle lines: Do we wish to remain “a people of free-will”, or do we want corporations to make key life-decisions for us?
Here is Yuval Noah Harari, Klaus Schwab’s mentor and advisor, talking about the digital and biological revolution that is coming, which will take place “under the skin”, and effectively make the idea of human free-will obsolete:
Thanks to AI and the Internet of Bodies (IoB) ecosystem, decoding the human brain is already well underway, according to a World Economic Forum (WEF) presentation.
Five years after historian Yuval Noah Harari told the WEF that humans were hackable and that organisms were algorithms, Harari’s insights have been fully realized.
Thursday’s WEF Annual Meeting 2023 session on “Ready for Brain Transparency?” opened with a short video showing a dystopian scenario where employees’ brainwaves were not only decoded to determine their performance in the workplace, but also to determine whether they participated in illegal activity.
While the scenario in the video below is fictional, the technological framework is already in place.
And to end this depressing article with a photo to make Scott happy:
You may or may not recall my earlier post in defense of the basic idea that viruses are real things, substantially as described, and are not merely a counterfeit construct of the now-obvious fake science, which is clearly inflicted upon us by the liars in charge.
That post was made in response to what I believe is a discreditation campaign of “there is no virus”, which has been promoted within the community of COVID and vaccine skeptics, as well as within the good company of those highly observant election skeptics (see Patrick Gunnels), by the DNC, CIA, CCP, WEF and other corrupt globalist organizations.
This idea of pushing us too far, as skeptics, is very much like what they did to protesters on January Sixth. Pushing the enemy too far is a “go-to” principle in their arsenal of shameful abuse of science, media, and social media. It is an affront to truth and God, but they don’t care.
If you are not familiar with my prior rebuttal of the key points of the there is no virus campaign, I am including the entire article by reference, and urge you to read it – either now, or later, in case you have any doubts about the discrete reality, ready separability, and PHYSICAL ISOLATION of viruses.
I will try to keep this brief – although that is hard, because I’m fighting against people’s “feelings” instead of facts. When the other side LIES all the time, it creates a “feeling” that they’re lying about everything. Yes, they ARE lying about everything – but the lies are often very sophisticated, being composed of …
The “there is no virus” campaign followed shortly on the heels of several other discreditation operations, including the highly successful “magnetic vaccines” campaign. Having an actual scientific interest in magnetism, I spent a couple of weeks debunking this campaign, which involved my actually taking it very seriously as a starting point. The whole experience of basic scientific discovery was refreshing and fun, and led me to a great understanding of how the enemy works. Several posts resulted.
Wherein we examine, in something like “MythBusters” style, the dubious “Magnet Challenge”, without relying (too much) on the anti-scientific crutch of scientific authority First, a confession. The main reason I am attracted to these videos of people sticking magnets to the COVID vaccination injection sites on their shoulders, is that I love to watch normal …
Wherein we look at how the COVID scammers are now using “magnetic” disinformation to try to escape justice for REAL abuse of liposome biotechnology to achieve [most likely contraceptive] vaccine persistence and migration. TL;DR – after mRNA vaccine persistence and anatomical migration were revealed in leaked Pfizer data, explaining “shedding” via persistent liposomes, the COVID …
This is for the historical record. I hope that this analysis gets to the “dissident scientists” involved, but even if it never does, future historians will get a powerful look at what I call “Fake Science” – the establishment’s phony, deceptive and controlled scientific complex – and how infiltration, control, and discreditation of dissident populist …
OK. Something is definitely going on. Hat tip to RF121 for finding this. Somebody call Dr. Tenpenny’s lawyer. The Daily Mail may actually owe Dr. Tenpenny and Stew Peters an apology. Just in case Twitter deletes that tweet, here’s an image. So – is this REAL? YES. Most of this story is in Japanese, but …
I also did a post on why FREE SPEECH needs to be tolerant of people who purvey “disinformation”, and particularly those who are under frequent and active discreditation attacks.
I will try to keep this short. I was very shocked, recently, to find that Dr. Sherry Tenpenny was banned from Truth Social for calling the mRNA COVID vaccines “bioweapons”. Dr. Tenpenny commented back. Let’s take a closer look at that! I can tell you this – by the time I saw this, Dr. Tenpenny …
Thus, don’t get me wrong – I will protect the free speech of both the malicious and innocent purveyors of “misinformation”, “disinformation”, “malinformation”, or whatever – where “whatever” frequently includes TRUTH NOT YET RECOGNIZED. And when there is no truth to be recognized, I find it very important that free speech REMAIN ONLINE, if only to serve as a REFERENCE FOR CORRECTION.
So in the spirit of loving correction of my “no virus” friends, let me begin.
In November of 2022, our wonderful champion of truth in medicine, Dr. Peter McCullough – his nose constantly in the scientific literature – noticed and wrote a post (image below) about a FANTASTIC paper, fully capable of putting to rest the “no virus” position for most honest skeptics.
McCullough even included a handy image, which I reproduce here, in fair use, for your learned examination.
This entire paper is worth digging into. For the benefit of the low-vision, I recommend going directly to the paper (title included below) at these links:
The basic idea of the paper is that the researchers FROZE a liquid suspension of the isolated (yes) virus, and then did a very advanced form of electron microscopy on it, completely analogous to the CAT scan they do on you in the hospital, using X-rays. In this fashion, they got amazing PICTURES OF THE VIRUS.
One of the great things that happened here, which absolutely STINKS of real science, is that the researchers didn’t find what everybody expected.
The Earth may be “round”, but the virus is FLAT.
Literally. The virus is only round in two of its three dimensions. It’s shaped like a TABLET, not a sphere.
Hamburger patties. Hamburgers. Oreos. Or even my namesake, MOON PIES.
But consider the ABSTRACT of the paper, and in particular, what I’ve put in BOLD:
SARS-CoV-2 is a lipid-enveloped Betacoronavirus and cause of the Covid-19 pandemic. To study the three-dimensional architecture of the virus, we perform electron cryotomography (cryo-ET) on SARS-Cov-2 virions and three variants revealing particles of regular cylindrical morphology. The ribonucleoprotein particles packaging the genome in the virion interior form a dense, double layer assembly with a cylindrical shape related to the overall particle morphology. This organisation suggests structural interactions important to virus assembly.
A “double layer assembly”?
So that means a DOUBLE-LAYER MOON PIE!
OK – maybe without the middle layer of CARDBOARD that is clearly what moon pies are made of, but still – TWO LAYERS of RNA (or more accurately RNA + nucleoprotein) in the middle.
Coiled up badly flat like a damned garden hose in a round box. Who’da thunk?
Now – I urge you all to click on THE LINK FOR THE PAPER and skim through it. You will spot ALL of the following listed things, and it will give you a chance to practice reading the scientific literature for yourselves.
In no particular order or location (look everywhere), you will find that…..
isolation of the virus is described
agreement with prior work is described
disagreement with prior work is described
how the spike protein is distributed is described
a proof that the viruses were not “squooshed” flat is given
a way to make the viruses “lay flat” is described
several different variants are compared
the attachment of the spike protein was found to be ########
the size of the spike protein was verified (how?)
the porcupines stay the same size, while the number and type of quills may vary
there is speculation about WHY the structure is what it is
the work was done in #######
the peer review was done by at least some number of people
different proteins that make up the structure are named
There is a lot more, but I’m going to let YOU discover that.
Now – I am not saying that all skeptics of good faith will be convinced by this evidence, but I believe that most WILL be convinced.
I go back to what Dr. McCullough posted.
The objections to the reality of viruses are referenced in bold; McCullough’s reasoning to the contrary is briefly given in italics, and his final argument in shown in BOTH.
The endless frustrations of the SARS-CoV-2 crisis and pandemic response has led some to push back denying existence of the virus altogether.Laboratory methods in virology are well accepted and utilize a series of experiments to demonstrate cellular invasion, replication, transfer and repeated infection. Whole genomic sequencing has aided in identification of variants and subvariants and helped greatly in forecasting what is coming next. The CDC Nowcast system is an excellent application of targeted sequencing of viral samples.[i]Nonetheless, some have said if SARS-CoV-2 cannot be cultured like a bacteria and “isolated” then it does not exist.I have always responded that the principles of laboratory virology, sequencing, and the mass production of viruses such as that done by the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems are concrete processes that rely on the presence of the virus.[ii] My understanding from the body of medical literature and firsthand clinical experience are consistent with the conclusion that COVID-19 is indeed a unique illness distinguishable from influenza and other viral infections. I have always been impressed with the absence of bacterial superinfection and micro- and macro-thrombosis being features that separate COVID-19 from influenza and other viral syndromes. Calder, et al, at the Francis Crick Institute has gone a step farther with advanced forms of electron microscopy to see the virus up close and personal. A picture speaks a thousand words and should help even the most skeptical “viral denier” come onto the rational team that is trying to treat high risk patients, end ridiculous contagion control measures, and bring our world back to normal.
Now, I will join the “deniers” in objecting to the life-saving “virtue signal” that good Dr. McCullough uses to conclude his argument, but I will agree completely – the pictures, supported by an excellent description of how they were gotten, is convincing – at least to me.
IF one is willing to accept the reality of the virus, then there is a huge bonus that comes with it. We now have strong reason to believe that the World Economic Forum(WEF) – a nation-controlling cult of transhumanism – is behind the virus and the vaccines, in pursuit of their bizarre dream of “hacking the genome“. I will be posting a deep dive on that conspiracy very soon. You can get previews on my Twitter timeline. When you read that post, strongly consider getting fully on the “there really is a virus” train, because it does lead somewhere, and helps to explain why WEF did what they did.
Until then, stay skeptical, stay ethical, and most of all, stay ethically skeptical!

NOT A VIRUS! They’re homemade pomegranate moon pies!
