I have been warning people about “taking money from China” for a long, long, long time, but I finally realized that this warning is best expressed in exactly the same TEMPTATION that China uses.
MONEY.
Here is the truth, expressed in MONEY.
All. Chinese. Money. Comes with a string attached. A TAX. And that TAX is WHATEVER THE CCP WANTS TO TAKE.
It’s as if there is a TAX on any profits you make in China, and that tax is GREATER – always – than the profits you were promised, more so the lesser profits you will actually GET, if you are LUCKY. You will have to get that tax money from OTHER PEOPLE. By cheating your customers, by losing your reputation, by helping create a Chinese competitor who will use YOUR intellectual property.
SOMEHOW you will pay.
You CANNOT get past this. China doesn’t ASK – it TAKES. And if you refuse, they take something else.
This tax is not something that goes away. It’s not something you can cheat BETTER than the CCP to get a leg up on them.
The ONLY way to WIN is to NOT PLAY.
Take, for example, the CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Remember when the CoC was regarded by almost all people as a LEGITIMATE VOICE OF CONCERN whenever they WERE in fact “concerned”? Remember when people worried about what the Chamber of Commerce said, rather than thinking “OK – the Chamber of Chinese Commerce In America is against it – so it’s good – right?”
The thing that REALLY clued me into the power of Chinese money to OWN people, was the way that HOLLYWOOD was essentially lost to China.
Who does THAT? Who suckers HOLLYWOOD? Man alive, talk about GIFTED! That is criminal genius!
I have covered Hollywood and the CCP before, and that picture is not pretty.
A short bibliography on Hollywood, caught between the Scylla of China-backed cultural Marxists here in America, and the Charybdis of Chinese CCP-taxed investment money – a WHIRLPOOL of destruction where all bucks flow to CHINA.
I’m going to make a list of four important points about Hollywood – (which was to a large extent ideologically molded by communist RUSSIA, and is now significantly owned by communist CHINA, although being uniquely developed by AMERICAN communists) – and elaborate on those four points for your interest. Remember – this is from the …
It was the MOMENT that I realized that we are dealing with DEGRADATION of Western symbols…. That we are being forced to DEGRADE THEM OURSELVES…. That it is being done using RACIAL REVENGE as a psychological subtext…. And it was ALSO being done using SEXUAL REVENGE as a psychological subtext…. That REVENGE is a form …
Perhaps you remember my last column on Chinese Communism’s insidious cultural attack on America through Hollywood. If not, then here it is for your background consideration: Why I Believe That Chinese Communism is Raping Western Symbols And Must Be Punished by Tariffs on Hollywood Investments It was the MOMENT that I realized that we are dealing …
Do you remember the movies “Walking Tall” and “Billy Jack”? Do you also remember the hundreds of “me too” movies…
Ultimately, it sometimes seems like TRUMP is the only person who has a CLUE how to play hardball in a game where the CCP actually plays hardball, but will let everybody else pretend it’s softball all day long.
That is how the CCP’s overwhelming, smiling, lying, SOFT POWER works.
It is VERY instructive to look at all the victims of the CCP, and simply say “maybe I’ll do something other than what they did.”
Hollywood not only cannot contradict China – it can’t even TALK about China, except in approved ways. Worse still, Hollywood has to accept “instruction” from idiotic cultural radicals in America, who are BACKED by China, and who would be CRUSHED in China, but who force Hollywood to contradict AMERICA, insuring Hollywood’s alienation from its core market, until – yeah – who does Hollywood serve?
However, if you REALLY want to see the TAX extracted by China, look no further than CHINA JOE and his weak, pathetic, demoralized, mind-controlled administration.
You’ve seen the news – the DRESSING DOWN that Biden’s State Department nebbish received from China.
To say the first major diplomatic summit between the United States and China was an unmitigated mess would be an understatement. Apparently U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken thought it would be of value for the domestic audience if he was to lambast the Beijing delegation in public and on camera. His efforts were a complete fail as the Chinese knew everything was presented for domestic consumption… so, the Red Dragon threw fire right back onto the purple hair and obviously stunned an unsettled U.S. Secretary.
This is NOTHING. This isn’t even the BEGINNING of the TAX that the Biden administration will pay to China for its little Dominion hoax to make sure that the little Democrats got their little White House.
CHINA. SCORED. BIGLY.
The Democrats were almost over a barrel with the GOP and Trump.
Now, the Democrats are completely over a barrel – NAKED – with China in control.
To understand where we are at, it’s very helpful to take an hour and enjoy some “Fake Entertainment” from Hollywood, when it was on a “demoralization” kick, and one of the later incarnations of “The Outer Limits” was making a fairly prophetic statement, in a 1996 episode about tyrannical geopolitics dressed up as science fiction, called “The Deprogrammers“.
I warn you – even the demoralization-loving LEFT thinks this episode is depressing. Watch at your own risk.
The Mao Jackets – the sullen workers – the haughty and oppressive aliens living in luxury over the masses – it’s all there except – OH WAIT – yes – COVID-19, or at least the aftermath, even makes a cameo appearance!
There is a line at about 56:00 minutes into the show that is straight out of the China Virus. The word “jollem” is a disparaging term for humans, who are all slaves to the aliens.
“Jollem aren’t allowed to touch anybody! EVER!”
Yeah. That is EXACTLY where we are at. One would almost think the people behind this show had a direct line to the future to plant this stuff.
Or maybe the predictive programming knew exactly what it needed to get us used to – I don’t know – for some weird reason that maybe we discover eventually.
You have GOT to see the video I’m going to show you.
It’s not just what they’re talking about. It’s WHERE IT LEADS.
Most of the people who watch Rand Paul go after Fauci here, are concentrating on MASKS, because that is the TOP LAYER of the argument. But THAT is the small potatoes.
Rand Paul distracted Fauci to defend masks, while introducing DEVASTATING truth about variants and immunity.
Rand was not only opening up basic questions about what we should be doing in terms of allowing the immune to “bring us back to normal” in terms of wearing or not wearing masks – he exposed a SCAM being pulled by the left, in which they NEED to push humanity to a Marek’s Disease dilemma, as part of forced dependence on government, and thus to lock in socialism. I will explain that part below.
Because COVID-19 is constantly mutating, AS IT HAS FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, variants are naturally causing the new infections, AS THEY HAVE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING – important – AS THEY HAVE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING – but Rand Paul is showing a deep truth of the results that Fauci is trying to hide – that “of course variants take over” – but that does not mean that people who have been vaccinated or recovered from EARLIER VERSIONS of the virus don’t have real immunity that should be letting them return to their normal lives. Just as we always used to do, and always did, with all other colds and flu.
See? It basically boils down to NORMAL vs. WEIRD NEW UNNECESSARY NORMAL.
You can see Fauci RUNNING from this and DISSEMBLING in every possible “smart” way.
Indeed, Rand Paul is hinting at the truth, and you can see Fauci hiding it. The disease seems to be becoming a NORMAL COLD AND FLU BUG to the vaccinated and recovered, once it is no longer novel. And Fauci absolutely CANNOT SAY THAT. He has to try to make us see the glass half empty, by sleight of hand, to make us focus on the SCARY VARIANTS and not the CURED PEOPLE.
It is SO SLICK. You can see that little MAFIA TWERP trying to evade, but no – he CANNOT.
Because YES – we AS A WHOLE are becoming immune, and the disease is no longer a huge threat – most of all to those who have recovered or been vaccinated.
That is, as long as we don’t do something STUPID like making it more virulent – like we did with Marek’s Disease.
And I’m pushing it even beyond THAT, because it seems to me that Geert Vanden Bossche is correct about the possibility of a Marek’s Disease outcome. It sure looks like the globonazis are “accidentally” doing the wrong thing – which will end up making all humans addicted to a vaccine by PUSHING the variants to greater infectiousness and virulence by the very act of mass vaccination using inefficient vaccines.
In this open letter I am appealing to the @WHO and all stakeholders involved, no matter their conviction, to immediately declare such action as THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY OF INTERNATIONAL CONCERN. Please read and share: https://t.co/0Fupw9JInP#COVID19pic.twitter.com/I24mSjpVKM
Only I’m saying it’s not accidental. I’m saying that they want us REALLY dependent on the vaccine (see Marek’s Disease), but to get there we have to FAKE IT to make people take the vaccine for a relatively harmless pathogen NOW.
Which is to say, Aubergine’s razor.
Are you with me?
Maybe not?
OK – there is a lot to unpack there.
Let’s START from the beginning.
Rand Paul Nails Fauci
This is a great link with a TRANSCRIPT right here. If you want to READ the exchange, go there.
First, listen to Fauci start off with “I don’t understand….” – LIAR. Fauci immediately tries to lead away from the IMMUNE to the UNINFECTED.
This is extremely disingenuous. You can tell exactly what Fauci doesn’t want to do. He does not want any exceptions in the policy. He wants people obeying mandates.
This is where, as a recoveree FORCED to wear a mask DESPITE both IMMUNITY and HYPOXIA, I am SO PISSED OFF at all these mask martinets with their muzzle mandates.
In their ZEAL to vaccinate, people like me have been THROWN UNDER THE BUS.
So Fauci pretends to not understand. MAMET PRINCIPLE AGAIN.
So what does Fauci do? Rather than answer the question – “WHAT STUDIES CAN YOU CITE?” – which of course he cannot do – he THROWS A STRAWMAN at Rand Paul, and says “the studies you are talking about…” – WAIT A MINUTE – what studies is Rand talking about? He’s NOT. He’s asking YOU, Fauci, for studies in support of YOUR recommendations.
Then Fauci tries to shut up Rand Paul – gets him to back off a bit – and pivots back to SCARY VARIANTS, and the South African results from the Johnson+Johnson trials – with which I’m actually familiar.
Rand Paul actually NAILS Fauci on something I missed.
The J+J results tested people for antibodies – NOT CLINICAL SICKNESS. This is KEY. This is absolutely freaking KEY. We tend to forget that we MEASURE what we ACTUALLY MEASURE – not what we often THINK we’re measuring.
The J+J serological results, obtained in the course of vaccine trials, looked at whether people had antibodies to different variants at various stages in the testing, and included BOTH vaccine and placebo groups. Novavax also tested in South Africa, and also got interesting results. But the fact is, these were not tests for disease – they were tests for ANTIBODIES. And the results Fauci is talking about were BYPRODUCTS of the study. They weren’t even the POINT of the study.
This just blows up everything Fauci is saying.
Fauci is a hypocrite and a jerk. One the one hand, he DISMISSES clinical testing cases in hospitals for hydroxychloroquine, where LOGIC – PURE LOGIC – can tell you that something is WORKING FOR TREATING DISEASE – because THAT is what you’re actually measuring – but Fauci will dismiss it as not being “placebo, double-blind”.
Or worse still, Fauci ignored the “Lancetgate effect” – a statistical proof of DEATH on a societal scale when HCQ was withdrawn – showing the BENEFIT of hydroxychloroquine on a NATIONAL SCALE.
Yeah. Fauci loves statistics on a tiny, ancillary, and potentially mistaken scale, but when it’s BIG and STARK and says the wrong thing – well – then he just IGNORES them.
So what we’re talking about Fauci ignoring are studies of REAL DISEASE – not just antibodies in the blood – and LOGIC is fully operant on the results – but that’s no good for Fauci because “no placebo” and “not double-blind”.
BUT YET – here we see Fauci talking about MERE HANDFULS OF PEOPLE GETTING ANTIBODIES to the new South African variant, both having HAD the prior version, and NOT having had any prior version. That’s all it was. A mere BLIP in a much larger population of tested people.
But that is ALL YOU MEASURED – antibodies in people who walked in the door – and yet Fauci EXTRAPOLATES THIS to disease, and “no protection”.
And it LITERALLY does NOT MEAN THAT. It only means what people were tested for. ANTIBODIES. It means that getting new antibodies happens, when exposed to a new version, whether you had an old version or not.
WHOOPEE!
Now I see why people don’t think much of Fauci. He sees PROCESS and BUREAUCRACY as TRUTH. He doesn’t see the big picture – STOPPING DISEASE. Yet Rand Paul does.
Wow. Just blown away. Mikovits is right. This guy is a PROBLEM.
MOVING ON.
So here’s what happens next. Rand Paul pushes the fact that we have NO hospitalizations or deaths for people who have recovered or been vaccinated. He confronts Fauci with this. What does Fauci do? He IGNORES the question – IGNORES the challenge – and sticks to “you’re not listening” and “variants and wild type”.
Just as an aside, Fauci is helping his ChiCom buddies by calling the original version “wild type”, when it was anything but “wild”, but THAT is Fauci to the core. Evil little RAT. Bat soup, Fauci! BAT SOUP! You believe that crap?
Buzz off, Fauci, you little demon! LOL. Good grief, I hate people who abuse science like this evil gnome.
Sorry – the guy just makes me burn. “Wild Type”! Bullshit! This thing started mutating so fast, it was wild for about 5 people.
SPIT!
So Rand Paul hits Fauci AGAIN with no significant hospitalization or death, and Fauci AGAIN circles back to variants, and says we have “no variants in this country”.
Now THAT is a flat out lie. FLAT. OUT. LIE.
There is an AWESOME website called NEXTSTRAIN.ORG which has phenomenal analysis of the mutations of viruses, and has been on top of COVID-19 coronavirus mutations from the very beginning.
And I mean VERY beginning.
The site is very up-to-date as well. For example, here is the evolution of SARS-COV-2 as of this very moment:
I was looking at Nextstrain from the VERY beginning of this thing. There were country variants ALL OVER the world IMMEDIATELY, and they were spreading to other countries as fast as PEOPLE WERE.
Let’s look at the situation right now. We don’t have variants?
YOU LIE!
This is what Fauci looks like when he lies. Keep it for reference.
And this is what he’s lying about.
Oh, but it gets better – look how variants were emerging from the very beginning:
So no – do NOT tell me that we don’t have any variants, Tony Fauci, you MEALY-MOUTHED GARDEN GNOME.
At that point, Rand Paul just launches into a barrage of truth. JUST LISTEN TO HIM. He is so spot on with the idea of giving people a REWARD for getting the vaccine.
Now – some Democrat chickie-poo comes in and tries to rescue Fauci – who does his best to lie his way out, saying that Rand Paul’s statements are only true about the “wild type” and not the variants. We may get into the possibility that the first “allegedly stronger variant” showing up in South Africa……
…..may be a product of more ChiCom shenanigans, as a propaganda ASSIST to the AmeriCommies and the COVID COMMIES such as Fauci – but let’s just leave that possibility aside for now.
Fauci simply cannot consider letting off on what appear to be IMAGINARY lack of protections of the recovered and vaccinated, even though there is no evidence to suggest that they are not actually protected.
WHY? Why persist in keeping people fearful, and ready for that next vaccine?
I believe it’s because they have a reason.
Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche’s Warning
Here is the text of his letter which you saw on Twitter above.
I personally like his video better – this interview – but it’s a long listen.
https://youtu.be/YtHfI00D_s4
Now – this guy does not spell out the possibility that we could end up with a situation EXACTLY like Marek’s Disease – but others have, because that is ONE of the “better” outcomes of what GVB is talking about.
Yeah – it could be WORSE than Marek’s Disease. But THAT is bad enough.
Here is the internet explanation of the “better” Marek’s outcome, where we are ALL dependent on a vaccine we would not have needed if we HADN’T over-vaccinated – but at least the vaccine keeps us from dying.
Here is the excellent Wikipedia description of that disease.
So – are you feeling a bit of overload at this point?
I suggest getting a drink, coming back, and listening to the NEXT GUY.
Del Bigtree’s Antibody Explainer
I am not actually a fan of this guy – but JUST because of his wonderful “football playbook” method of explaining Geert Vanden Bossche’s point about the virtue of general antibodies over specific antibodies under certain circumstances, I really have to recommend watching this.
Del Bigtree has followed this subject (vaccines for a while, and while he’s generally on the “opposite side” from me (with Del being generally opposed to vaccines), he clearly understands what GVB is saying, and makes it very easy to understand.
Between Rand Paul’s excellent questions about WHEN we should call “OVER” an overreaction to a “novel cold and flu” that was masqueraded to us as a pandemic to falsely elect Joe Biden…..
Between Anthony Fauci’s dissembling, his evasions, and his flat-out lies, to support policies which have only the trickiest and most misleading grounding in science or reality….
Between Geert Vanden Bossche’s disturbingly simple question of whether our vaccines are actually DRIVING the evolution of new and potentially increasingly dangerous variants of COVID-19…..
And between Wolf Moon’s suspicion that the “South African variant” may actually be the product of more perfectly timed Chinese bio-adventurism…..
It would behoove us to ask whether we are on the right track with mass vaccination of a NEW FLU.
Because if we’re NOT on the right track, then “my vaccine” may not kill grandma – but it could very well kill the grandkids.
And that’s not nice.

“Truth is the norm of logic. Correctness in thinking is the normal means to reach truth, which is the conformity of thought with things as they are—with reality.”
It’s Friday and Wolf’s Pub is open for business. Thank the good God. Who the heck couldn’t use some camaraderie at the pub and a good stiff drink?
It’s been a hard week for some of us. Vaccine mayhem, sick pets, blizzards, car trouble, hospital stays, to mention a few. But we made it through and now we fortify ourselves and get ready for whatever comes next in this wild world.
HOLD THE LINE
There are times in history when the world runs particularly mad. This is one of them. We’ve been urged to HOLD THE LINE, so let us link arms and face down the madness together.
One of the best tools we can have in these times is the ability to utilize LOGIC, which according to “The Trivium” by Sister Miriam Joseph, C.S.C.., Ph.D., is “the art of thinking.”
The Trivium is a classical term denoting three of the seven branches of the Liberal Arts (and we aren’t talking Queer Gender Studies here) that make up both the Trivium and the Quadrivium. We are going to focus on one part of the Trivium, LOGIC, but the other two parts are GRAMMAR (the art of inventing and combining symbols”) and RHETORIC (the “art of communication”).
Yes, we are going to utilize the tools that have stood Western Civilization in good stead for many centuries. I think it was mostly white men who discovered and codified this SUPERIOR way of learning but let us not enrage any lurking BLM Marxists too much…yet.
The propaganda below is evidence of the lack of reason, logic, and critical thinking that is endemic in our culture right now:
You see, comrades, giving THEM any way of showing proof or giving examples is verboten.
LOGIC: THE ART OF THINKING
You may have noticed that people are having a great deal of trouble reasoning nowadays. They have fallen victim to inferior education, indoctrination, their own emotions and foibles, fear, intimidation, celebrity culture, etc. Clear thinking has gone out the window.
Violent Antifa riots are called “mostly peaceful protests.” Black Lives Matter calls white people racists based only on their skin color. Simply being born white is an offense.
People with gender dysphoria are encouraged to undergo surgery rather than consider the historical and emotional causes of such illnesses.
Indeed, the time has now come when the plain provable, scientific facts of biology are officially refuted in order to maintain a political narrative that seeks to overturn the existing order. The madness is such that it is now suggested children be given a cocktail of puberty blockers in order to first discern and choose their sex, gender being the term for sex now, rather than its traditional grammatical function of feminine or masculine in language usage.
The globalists and Marxists who seek to wrest power from the citizens have embarked upon the familiar tactic of overturning the foundations upon which our political system exists, even our understanding of REALITY.
We are experiencing a satanic rebellion. Mankind has seen it before. This is nothing new.
There was another time in history in which the same kind of mass insanity held sway, and that was the French Revolution (one can also add the Russian revolution and other such events). The will to power, rather than truth and the legitimate seeking of redress for wrongs, takes hold of those who let rage, envy, greed and violence fill their minds.
Cunning. Clever. Predictable.
It’s enough to make you want to drink. 😊 Let’s!
Today’s special is the Texas Two-Step, or in more common parlance, a Boilermaker. A shot of whiskey and a beer. Here’s a bit of history about the Boilermaker. Fta:
“Stories are murky at best as to how the boilermaker first came into existence, but it’s pretty clear that the drink was originally consumed by blue collar workers at the end of a long shift – which is why it’s now become the shift drink of choice among bartenders. It’s believed the drink takes its name from the workers who built and maintained steam locomotives in the 1800s. These workers were known to head to the bar at the end of the shift, and a shot of whiskey with a beer became a staple for quickly easing the pain that came from a hard day of back-breaking labor. As it was the drink consumed by boilermakers, it took on the name as well.”
I’m going to feature this Irish whiskey that DePat suggested in a comment the other day.
I just happened to be down in the metroplex and picked up a bottle of Powers Irish Whiskey (do read their introduction. I swear I could hear an Irish brogue emanating from the screen while I read it).
From their website:
“YOU DON’T LAST OVER 200 YEARS BY CUTTING CORNERS”
Powers Irish Whiskey
That could be said about the USA, too, eh? These damned commies just do what they want and cut corners, like ignoring the rule of law and the will of the people.
Back to the Boilermaker. DePat, I just love you. Powers is one of the most delightful whiskeys I’ve ever tasted. From Cork, where my husband’s family history hails, it has firmly supplanted his current favorite (which I will not name out of an abundance of respect for it).
However, Powers has a light refinement to it that is reminiscent of some of the best whiskeys. Looking forward to trying all three types.
I paired it with Guinness, which was NOT MY CHOICE. I would’ve gone with a lighter beer, but sometimes you have to let your better half do what he’s gonna do. That said, it pairs up pretty darn well.
Now, there are several ways of drinking a Boilermaker. Back in the day, lo these 40 years ago, we did it as this fine fellow does in the video below. He’s a hoot.
Let us raise our glasses to DePat and her sweet pup. God keep them together now and in eternity.
HOUSE RULES
Before we get much further, this eminently annoying but much needed reminder: let us down our Boilermakers in a spirit of true brotherhood. We might disagree—strenuously—but we are patriots. And we stick together like glue. Rules here.
The bouncers are happy to direct you to the Utree if you feel the need to boil over. Besides being a release valve, the Utree is also another place to gather in case something happens here.
HOW TO LIVE
Circling back to LOGIC (Red Jen just saw what I did there) here’s another quote from The Trivium:
“The utilitarian or servile arts enable one to be a servant—of another person, of the state, of a corporation, or of a business—and to earn a living. The liberal arts, in contrast, teach one how to live; they train the faculties and bring them to perfection; they enable a person to rise above his material environment to live an intellectual, a rational, and therefore a free life in gaining truth.” Sister Miriam Joseph
Sister Miriam Joseph
“…a free life in gaining truth.”
That is the crux. How does one live “a free life in gaining truth” when all around us is lies? Our pastors lie to us. Our government lies to us. Academia lies to us. The Press lies to us constantly. Business lies to us. Big Pharma lies to us.
I think freedom comes from “conformity of thought with things as they are—with reality.”
Let reality order our thoughts:
There are two sexes: Male and Female. The biological reality of that fact is not negated by surgery or saying differently.
Calling white people racist on the basis of their whiteness…is RACIST.
Wearing a mask is largely an exercise in virtue signaling or servile compliance, or is worn by POWs in the global war on freedom.
Experimental vaccines are not a panacea for fear of death from a virus that over 99% of us would survive anyway.
Sending your children to the public schools and expecting they will be the very few who are not affected by communist/globalist indoctrination, is unrealistic.
The 2020 election was stolen from the American people.
No one man is adequate to saving a country from revolution.
Evil ideologies flourish anywhere they are given a foothold, including the United States of America.
In a world full of lies we must stand for the truth, for REALITY.
It may cost us dearly. The path of revolution very well might have to come full circle. Let those of us who make it through be ready pick up the mantle of reason and rebuild. We owe it to our posterity.
Resources to teach ourselves and others how to think:
And just for fun, The Scarlet Pimpernel with Leslie Howard and Merle Oberon. You get a Hollywood taste of the French Revolution, but it’s still a great film.
Gab is inevitable. Our community has grown to the point where the GOP can’t simply pretend we do not exist anymore as they have for five years. Now they must attack and defame us like the left does. Our community will primary every last one of you in 2022. Every last one.
This was all in response to Gab being somewhat stupidly criticized by Governor Abbott during a photo op with two state reps touting an antisemitism bill.
As I’ve said before, NOTHING has done more to wash out the antisemites at Gab, than the massive influx of normies simply seeking free speech.
Addressing Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s Statement About Gab
Every month 30 million people use Gab’s services to get access to the free flow of information online. Gab is the home of free speech in a world where Big Tech oligarchs have censored, deplatformed, and demonized tens of millions of good, honest, and decent people with whom they disagree politically.
Gov. Abbott’s statement will likely not sit well with the nearly 800,000 Texans who have visited Gab.com in the past 24 hours alone. What is even more strange is that the Texas GOP itself is on Gab with a verified account.
Gab is not an “anti-semitic” platform. We protect the political speech of all Americans, regardless of viewpoint, because in this age of cancel culture nobody else will. That means unpopular viewpoints may be found on the site.
The enemies of freedom smear us with every name in the book because they hate America and they hate free speech. It’s a shame to see a GOP politician fall for this trap when conservative values are under sustained attack all over the country.
People smear Gab for the kinds of people we host. They never smear Gab for the kinds of people we ban. That’s because we don’t have political tests for our users. Ban decisions are made on an individual basis. Our test for political speech is whether it is legal or not. Pretty simple rule.
There are many Jewish Gab users and customers, whose lawful speech we protect with just as much zeal as we would protect the lawful speech of any person of any faith, ethnicity, or creed.
This is what America used to be like: a place where The People could speak freely regardless of their faith, ethnic background, or beliefs. This is the America Gab is fighting to preserve.
Apparently Gov. Abbott doesn’t agree.
Andrew Torba CEO, Gab.com March 10th, 2021 Jesus is King
It’s Fight Like a Flynn Friday at Wolf’s Pub. Welcome back! I think you would agree there is freedom, and then there is FREEEEDOMMM!
What does it mean to be truly free? Can the body be imprisoned but the mind free? How does one free the mind? Are there things worse than death? Is freedom worth dying for? How do we learn freedom?
I believe the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights attempted (and mainly succeeded) in enumerating how a self-governed nation would operate. Maximum freedom of religion, speech, self-defense, assembly, and then freedom FROM unlawful search and seizure and so on.
General Flynn had a compelling op-ed in the Western Journal a couple days ago that is worth taking the time to read and ponder. This stood out to me:
“Though the battle for the soul of America is fierce before us, we cannot afford to look away in hopes of finding retreat. There will be none.”
Speaking of the soul…for your listening pleasure, here is Loreena McKinnett singing “The Dark Night of the Soul”, a poem by St. John of the Cross, a 16th century Spanish mystic. It speaks to the time preceding the union of the soul with God, when the darkness within drives the soul to leave earthly things and seek God. I would say union with God is true freedom.
Lyrics:
Upon a darkened night the flame of love was burning in my breast And by a lantern bright I fled my house while all in quiet rest
Shrouded by the night And by the secret stair I quickly fled The veil concealed my eyes while all within lay quiet as the dead
Chorus: Oh night thou was my guide of night more loving than the rising sun Oh night that joined the lover to the beloved one transforming each of them into the other
Upon that misty night in secrecy, beyond such mortal sight Without a guide or light than that which burned so deeply in my heart That fire t’was led me on and shone more bright than of the midday sun To where he waited still it was a place where no one else could come
(Chorus)
Within my pounding heart which kept itself entirely for him He fell into his sleep beneath the cedars all my love I gave From o’er the fortress walls the wind would brush his hair against his brow And with its smoothest hand caressed my every sense it would allow
(Chorus)
I lost myself to him and laid my face upon my lover’s breast And care and grief grew dim as in the morning’s mist became the light There they dimmed amongst the lilies fair there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair there they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
In honor of the Spanish mystic, our special tonight is the Spanish Tempranillo wine, a bold tasting and vibrant grape that may have been brought to Spanish shores by the Phoenicians thousands of years ago.
You can learn more here with the added bonus list of 40 of the top-rated Tempranillo wines from Spain. Unfortunately, a good Tempranillo can be hard to find. The ones in the local grocery store are usually the lower end of quality, with bitingly sharp tannins and sometimes murky overtones.
That said, if you can find a good Spanish Tempranillo wine, it will often be a reserva (aka more expensive). We happen to have all 40 of the top-rated wines on hand tonight (wink, wink), so feel free to browse through the list and order a bottle for your table.
HOUSE RULES
Before we get back to Fight like a Flynn Friday, let’s review the rules. Make nice. Easier said than done in these trying times but give it your best shot. In case you feel like getting ugly, there’s the Utree. The Utree has more than one purpose, too. It is also a rendezvous place in case something happens to this site. Thanks Coothie, for reminding us that we have another place to gather in the event we can’t gather here.
Now, back to Gen. Flynn’s op-ed in the Western Journal. He describes how our nation was founded on faith in God as the bedrock of our freedoms.
“Faith and freedom can never be separated
from one another.”
General Michael Flynn
And then he begins to urge us to take in hand and read again our founding documents and the writings of the Founding Fathers.
“Anyone can learn more about our nation’s founding. Start simple. When was the last time you read the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence?
We tend to forget just how easy it is to read the Constitution from cover to cover. President Obama’s Affordable Care Act was more than 314,000 words long, but the document that frames our entire system of government is only 4,500 words in length. The average American can read it in half an hour.
Of course, if we really want to get into the mindset of our Founding Fathers, we must dig deeper. “The Federalist Papers,” de Tocqueville’s “Democracy in America,” Paine’s “Common Sense” and the writings of John Locke are all well worth the read.”
He goes on:
“There is a reason why the forces of darkness are trying so hard to eradicate the family as we know it. They see how powerful the bond of family can be, so they want to redefine it, water it down and replace it with a dependency on the state. We cannot allow them to destroy the family. As long as marriages and families are strong, freedom will always have a fighting chance. Never concede to those who say they know how to raise your children better than you do. God entrusted the care of children to parents, not to governments.”
General Flynn mentions the importance of friendship and the will to fight against the forces arrayed against America. He asks us:
“Will you join the fight?
For the sake of our children and grandchildren, I pray you will.”
Tragically, most of our children have not learned what it means to be free and the cost of it, and the history of it. They’ve been fed a load of crap in our schools for several generations now. Let’s face it, we have been allowing the enemies of freedom to indoctrinate our children for decades.
I found this video of five libertarians (as near as I can tell) enjoying a wide-ranging discussion about educational alternatives. It’s an hour and a half, but it discusses so many issues, mentions so many good resources, and addresses so many of the facets of educating one’s own children and grandchildren, that I urge you to give it a listen.
“But if recent findings are any indication, Americans’ acquaintance with the founders’ principles and practices seems to be at a nadir. According to a report of the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, a majority of college graduates can’t recall “the substance of the First Amendment, or the origin of the separation of powers.” Perhaps most alarmingly, “nearly 10% say that Judith Sheindlin—‘Judge Judy’—is on the Supreme Court.” A big part of the problem seems to stem from the fact that of the 1,100 “liberal arts colleges and universities” surveyed, just “18%” require students to take a course on American history or government before graduation.”
WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF EXCUSES
The folks in the video above talk about a plethora of educational options for getting your kids out of the government schools. We talk freedom, but the government schools (yours included) have been teaching servitude, and our children have been learning to LOVE IT.
At the end of the book by Viktor E. Frankl, “Man’s Search for Meaning”, Sigmund Freud is quoted. Freud basically believed that the primal urge of hunger would bring uniformity to a diverse group of people. Frankl writes:
“Sigmund Freud once asserted, ‘Let one attempt to expose a number of the most diverse people uniformly to hunger. With the increase of the imperative urge of hunger all individual differences will blur, and in their stead will appear the uniform expression of the one unstilled urge.’ Thank heaven, Sigmund Freud was spared knowing the concentration camps from the inside. His subjects lay on a couch designed in the plush style of Victorian culture, not in the filth of Auschwitz. There, the “individual differences” did not blur but, on the contrary, people became more different; people unmasked themselves, both the swine and the saints. And today you need no longer hesitate to use the word “saints”: think of Father Maximillian Kolbe who was starved and finally murdered by an injection of carbolic acid at Auschwitz and who in 1983 was canonized.
You may be prone to blame me for invoking examples that are the exceptions to the rule. ‘Sed omnia praeclara tam difficilia quam rara sunt’ (but everything great is just as difficult to realize as it is rare to find) reads the last sentence of the Ethics of Spinoza. You may of course ask whether we really need to refer to ‘saints.’ Wouldn’t it suffice just to refer to decent people? It is true that they form a minority. More than that, they will always remain a minority. And yet I see therein the very challenge to join the minority. For the world is in a bad state, but everything will become still worse unless each of us does his best.
So, let us be alert—alert in a two-fold sense:
Since Auschwitz we know what man is capable of.
And since Hiroshima we know what is at stake.” (My bolding above)
As we now face a global enemy that seeks to deprive us of every one of our God-given freedoms, of even mental autonomy through the great evil of transhumanism; that seeks to control our movements, our medical decisions, our financial and political decisions, we have no choice but to join the fight with Gen. Flynn.
The Cult of Globalism believes
REASON IS TREASON
Let us fight for our freedom and for our children’s freedom by freeing their minds of the poison of globalism, socialism, progressive theories, and communism. The ruling elites are eaten up with a soul sickness that will not hesitate to reach beyond the depths of the Holocaust.
WE KNOW WHAT THEY ARE CAPABLE OF. We have seen them kill off thousands of vulnerable seniors and others through the CCP virus. We know of the trafficking of children and women, of the vaccine injuries inflicted thoughtlessly on African children by psychopaths like Bill Gates. THEY WON’T STOP. The only way to stop them is for the United States of America to remain FREE. The battle must be engaged. Search your soul and find where God will take you in this battle. And then get to it. Politics, education, religion, agriculture, business—whatever your bailiwick—turn it to the battle for freedom.
Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation;
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: ‘In God is our trust!’
O’er the land of the free, and the home of the brave!”
Francis Scott Key
Welcome to Wolf’s Pub! It’s Freemen Friday and today we fight.
They aren’t going to win. They think Might makes Right.
“Let us have faith that right makes might; and in that faith let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it.”
Abraham Lincoln
The globalists and communists picked a fight with the Real America this time around. They have gone all in. It’s winner take all. But we are freemen and we hold the lantern of liberty aloft.
Remember us? We love our homes, we are loath to fight unless forced to it, we HATE having our blood and treasure spilled in foreign lands. We HATE cancel culture. We HATE that they seek to divide us, that they tax us without representing us. We just wanted to be left alone to pursue our lives, our liberty, and our happiness.
We know that they have sold out to China and other foreign nations for filthy lucre; that they do not honor their oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. They have installed a senile old pervert in the White House, which shows their contempt for this great nation and its people.
They are comfortable in their positions of power. They probably even feel justified in all they have done to destroy our great republic. Theirs is a “high and lonely destiny” to quote Uncle Andrew in The Magician’s Nephew, a book I highly recommend to any of them left with a modicum of conscience.
But I also know this: evil ideologies and those who carry them out always lose in the end. I don’t know what, when, where, or how, but I do know that evil has a limited lifespan and it will be defeated. It is inherently self-destructive.
Wild bergamot is the herb that is the featured image above. I was out in my garden yesterday and noticed that the bergamot was peeking through the dead growth from last year. The Dark Winter we went through did not kill it. It is coming back thicker than ever. And so will America.
And I further know that it will be God who defeats this evil that bedevils our nation. He will use Gideon’s three hundred, but it will be God to whom the glory belongs. Glory to God in the highest!
House Rules
Before we go further, visit here to review the Rules. No friendly fire. We’re gonna stick together like glue, even when we disagree. Disagreements allowed, just keep it civil and buy each other a drink. You can catch more bees with honey than vinegar. Brawling only allowed at the UTree.
Speaking of drinks, today’s special is Jack Daniels, that iconic American bourbon.
Here is a video featuring patriotic drinks made with Jack Daniels whiskey. Scrumptious!
If you peruse the Jack Daniels website you will see that its history involves slavery. But we don’t cancel our history, we learn from it.

Battle Plans
“Oppressors can tyrannize only when they achieve a standing army, an enslaved press, and a disarmed populace.”
James Madison
I’ve noticed that alternative media is on the rise and beginning to come into its own. Important that we visit and support and SHARE WITH OTHERS. I’m compiling a list of these alternative sites and I’m going to share them with friends. So many of our fellow citizens continue to be stuck in the loop of the propaganda MSM.
Let us help free them with the help of a truly FREE PRESS.
I’m even thinking about printing up small cards with all these websites on them to pass out to people, to put on public bulletin boards and wherever they might do good. I guess I’m getting stuck on the “Kilroy was here” tactic. It was immensely successful.
Tools of the Trade for Patriots
Here’s some of my favorites. Please add your own in the comments, as I know I’ve missed a lot. The more we undercut the reach of the Fake News Media with true news and information, the faster we own them. And they will be ours. Oh yes, they will be ours.
Lin Wood, who has the Fight Back law website, is under attack (see here) for sharing a transcript of some pretty heavy stuff by a whistleblower. The communist/globalist cabal is going to try and commit lawfare on him. Let’s show them that we support and seek to protect our own. God keep you and bless you and make His face to shine upon you, Mr. Wood!
Monday was the anniversary of the great culture warrior Andrew Breitbart’s death. Twitter, in a fit of spite, took his account’s blue checkmark away the other day. He is still getting to them. Oh, it must give him a great sense of satisfaction to know that!
We have all seen this short video of Andrew. See that steel in his eyes? Yeah, that’s the Real America. That’s the America they will never defeat. We will never give in. We will never give up. We will win.
Now – I’m a bit of a bush-league authority on communism in Latin America – at least compared to most “Norte-Americanos”. The most exemplary executions by Che were of MEN, and I’m not even sure if I have ever seen a picture of one. There are many detailed and authoritative accounts of him PERSONALLY executing peasants. NUMBERS is not a problem. ACTION PICTURES is.
This just didn’t sniff right. Che murdering unarmed women? A PICTURE? I’m from Missouri on this.
SHOW ME.
I decided that I wanted to get the ORIGINAL image and validate it at the same time.
I did a search on the wonderful TinEye and found that the MEME had appeared in multiple places, but the ORIGINAL IMAGE had appeared as a reply on Twitter.
Note that these tweets were 4 years after the article.
I decided to look for this image elsewhere – not through TinEye, but rather by searching on relevant term in images. I turned off any filtering (b/c violence) and used the terms “Che Guevara executing women” in a DuckDuckGo image search.
This is actually a good, DEEP, well-researched debunking.
It turns out that it was from a university socialist political “guerrilla theater” production at Emory College, likely in support of Soviet actions in Central America.
Thus, we are left with the ironic probability that this image was originally socialist propaganda, meant as an indictment of Salvadoran military or paramilitary forces, responsible for numerous atrocities against civilians, such as the notorious murders of Marxist “liberation theology” nuns. Such incidents were a powerful propaganda weapon for the atheist Soviets, quite ironically, used as a “contradiction” against American narratives in defense of the Salvadoran regime.
NOW – this would just end here – a weirdly karmic debunking of socialist propaganda used against socialists, had I not noticed ANOTHER Snopes featured article.
OK – this has to be a hilarious load of crap – I mean…..
YEAH, RIGHT. What – that weird pair of “half-Y” goalposts?
HUH?
So at that point, I read the article.
My advice?
DON’T LOOK AWAY.
Now I urge you to click the link and read the Snopes article, but if you don’t want to do that, just peruse these convincing images:
Now – remember what I said…..
DON’T LOOK AWAY.
I’m going to add a new rule, which turns out to be like one of Alinsky’s, but this one serves TRUTH and not LIES…..
PUSH THROUGH TO FIND THE TRUTH.
Now, one of my BEST TRICKS in finding truth is that people will publicly state helpful but seemingly conflicting TRUTHS. Try to save all the truths by “deconflicting” them.
CPAC’s stage sure looks like a symbol adopted by the Nazis
The idea that this is accidental doesn’t seem particularly plausible
A bunch of lefty Jews are acting AS ONE WOULD EXPECT to Nazi symbols
Matt Schlapp calls the accusations outrageous and slanderous [YES to the latter]
The only thing needed to SOLVE this is to simply add some more TRUTH to the mix. Observe…..
The LEFT understands SYMBOLS much better than the right (see some guy named “Q”)
The RIGHT misses symbols all the time, and the Establishment right is even WORSE
The LEFT loves to set people up as CHUMPS, and will brazen out the denials
Nobody wants to admit that they got snookered on something this stupid, but YEAH
The entire history of Trump in office has been one frame job after another
The media WILL NOT dig into a frame job against the RIGHT – they will play along
People in the design world lean INCREDIBLY strongly to the LEFT
People in the design world, by and large, DESPISE President Trump
People in the design world have extremely high opinions of their own intelligence
The left is getting more and more desperate and brazen in their frame jobs against Trump
Jews are very predictable in their suspicion and outrage, and are easily played
GOPe are very predictable in their lack of suspicion and forgiveness, and are easily played the other way
GOPe signed off on this stuff the whole way, you just know it, and are the perfect MARKS
If CPAC had accepted a stage design shaped like a dreidel, they would have been accused of pandering, and they’re dopey enough to fall for that one, too
NOW – here is the deal.
Nobody wants to confront this stuff, but it’s TIME. It’s time to go after the leftists who pull this crap, and make them PAY as the SCUM they are.
Here’s why it works.
Oh, the MEDIA will deny it up and down. They will mock. They will “refute”. They will HELP THE PERPS. They will “PROVE” that it wasn’t intentional BY THE LEFTISTS in the mix.
Just look at the Snopes article. Snopes will NEVER dig deep on this one, and if others do, they will question it. They will NOT dig deep and hard like they did on the Che Guevara piece. NOPE.
But THAT is not what punishes the perps. That is not what gives us JUSTICE.
The perpetrators’ fellow leftists will know the truth. THE PERPS CAN’T BE TRUSTED. They snaked Trump. They could snake their fellow leftists just as easily.
THEY WON’T BE ABLE TO WALK THE STREETS. Why? Because THEY GOT CAUGHT. Getting CAUGHT is a SIN for the left. It’s not a SIN if you don’t get caught, but it IS if you do get caught.
Too bad.
So, if I was Matt Schlapp, I would drag the stage design people all over hell. Refuse to pay. Take ’em to court. Make ’em testify. Find their social media posts where they BRAGGED about setting up CPAC.
I am CONFIDENT that somebody set CPAC up. FIND IT and PROVE IT.
And enjoy the show, when they CAN’T WALK THE STREETS.
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread is 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).
Yes, it’s Monday…again.
But it’s okay! We’ll get through it.
There are no Sharknadoes in today’s forecast.
Free Speech is practiced here at the Q Tree. But please keep it civil. We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.
Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.
Please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election:
For your listening enjoyment, I offer the mellifluous tones of Avi Kaplan, in these songs titled ‘I’ll Get By’ and ‘The Summit’:
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
Joe Biden didn’t win.
I will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wheatie’s Word of the Day:
Mammothrept
Mammothrept is a noun which means…a weak spoiled child; a mollycoddled young person. It can also be used as an adjective. In ancient latin, mammothreptus meant ‘kept at the breast too long’.
Used in a sentence:
The Left has found a use for their mammothrept offspring; they send them out in the streets to act out on other people’s property, where they can riot and burn things.
“The advantage in life, in business, and in wartime goes to the competitor that does not flinch and does not broadcast his game plan.” -Gen. Michael T. Flynn
As you know, I have always preferred to conduct my operations out in the open, as I find this conducive to honesty, honor, virtues of all kinds, and general decency. I find that secrecy breeds all sorts of counterproductive things. For this reason, I avoid email, DMs, PMs, and chats, and try to conduct the vast majority of my business and communication through posts themselves and comments here or on Gab.
HOWEVER – after January Sixth – and studying the aftermath of that day – I will be following General Flynn’s advice. I will begin by NOT FLINCHING. I will be keeping as much as possible of my GAME PLAN AGAINST THE PROGZIS secret.
You may see me discussing TACTICS and TACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS out in the open, as usual, but I will be concealing STRATEGY from the enemy. My sharing of strategy with you all will be on an AS NEEDED BASIS.
LET THEM LOSE – meaning SAYING NOTHING – will figure prominently in my public strategy.
I have applied this to Nancy Pelosi – now it applies to THEM ALL.
There are lots of reasons I’m about to shut up about what’s going to happen, but one of the biggest ones is simply this. Now this quote’s EXACT FORMS have a very RICH history, but let’s not get distracted by that. Quos Deus vult perdere, prius dementat. Those whom God wishes to destroy, he first …
Now – here are some TACTICS. Let’s begin.
Because the leftists routinely eliminate our best stuff from the internet using their censorship, here are MULTIPLE versions of the Flynn statement to overcome their ERROR OF CENSORSHIP.
This little clip is actually from – as nearly as I can determine – a longer video collage which celebrated the PARDONING of General Flynn by President Trump.
Here is that video.
https://youtu.be/3hwPnDjwEas
You will find that most of it – particularly at the end – is a compilation of hilarious Trump memes – BUT – from about 1:45 to 4:00 minutes, you will find a wonderful collection of Flynn quotations and sound bytes taken from speeches.
Now – THIS is where I began to see that there was great benefit in paying attention to Flynn’s thoughts, both general and specific. There was not only a lot of overlap with TRUMP – there was a lot of overlap with Q.
We aren’t hearing much from Q lately, are we? But let’s be honest with ourselves – should we?
Maybe not. But in the meanwhile, IMO, studying FLYNN is the next best thing.
It is very useful to jump to a COLLECTION of Flynn’s quotations, here, to see even MORE congruence of thought between Flynn and Trump, and Flynn and Q.
Again, you will find that Flynn has much congruence with Trump on many issues (though not, interestingly, all of politics), and this is WHY Obama and the others were so determined to remove Flynn as Trump’s NSC. Likewise, their taking out of Rich Higgins and Ezra Cohen-Watnick makes all kinds of sense now.
The left wanted NO “fall-back” on national security policy – or “national insecurity insanity” in my opinion.
This was especially true in terms of gaining clarity on dealings with radical Islam – that of which we were no longer even allowed to speak under Obama.
The point, however, is really much bigger than JUST radical Islam.
Flynn’s point is a direct contradiction of a leftist imperative – that THE PARTY controls what exists and what does not. Note that this applied DIRECTLY to THE STEAL. To the normie masses, addicted to the MSM, “Election fraud did not exist.”
And yet notice how they also controlled what DOES EXIST, too, and EVEN FOR US.
Notice how THE CREEP ALI AKBAR – that WICKED POS – came in and ginned up the CONTROLLED “Stop The Steal” movement, then HERDED IT to the Buffalo Jump. Yes – the communists control what “does exist” for us, too. Even if we don’t want to admit it.
It’s SOVIET. Flynn is careful not to STATE trap words like “Soviet” or “communist”, but he teaches essential ideas that cut to the heart of the matter.
This podcast is a beautiful explanation of EXACTLY WHERE WE ARE NOW – but seen right before it happened.
Flynn CORRECTLY identifies the COST of FAILURE to “Stop The Steal” – and we are LIVING IT right now. Everything that Sidney Powell said we needed to do – that Flynn warns about in this interview – that Patrick Byrne explained – and that WEAK GOPe CLOWNS SURROUNDING TRUMP allowed to happen, despite the warnings – it’s all coming true NOW.
SO – why do we now need to study General Flynn?
It goes back to the title: Let A Thousand Plans Blossom
Allow me to explain.
SO – we have all been “trusting the plan” – right?
But what exactly WAS “The Plan”?
Was it just the Q drops?
Was it the Q drops minus any “disinformation”?
Was it the Q drops plus every brainless thought about flimsy numerology?
Was it the Q drops plus every speculation seeded by leftists counter-operatives?
Was the plan something BIGGER than what we were shown?
Did the plan ever CHANGE?
Did the plan ever RUN INTO TROUBLE?
Was the plan something other than what it appeared to be?
Was the plan a TRUST OPERATION?
Was the plan a TRUST OPERATION fought into a BACKFIRE?
Was the plan a FAITH OPERATION overplayed by the enemy into a TRUST OPERATION?
Now – I only asked that, so that you might realize that we ALREADY differed in what we thought “The Plan” actually was, while President Trump and Q drops were a CURRENT THING.
It has only gotten more ambiguous now that all the sliding goalposts have slid into the sea, somewhere off the coast of Syria.
But now I want you to consider something which EVERYBODY in the military quotes. It is often attributed to Colin Powell, but it is in fact a much older quote.
It is my contention that, no matter what you think “The Plan” either WAS or IS, it has CHANGED along the way. Unless you believe that GENERALS are wrong about plans surviving contact with the enemy, then you should likely agree that we are now dealing with a tactically different plan than what we were operating under, in October of 2017 – or even October of 2020.
Allowing plans to change – what Trump calls “flexibility” – speaks to a very important idea – something Trump doesn’t just HAVE, but also TEACHES – mostly by example. I once called it “Trump gravity”, but I think the more general concept is ANTIFRAGILITY.
Here is a very important discussion I had with Grandmaintexas about this idea.
And remember this – ANTIFRAGILITY WORKS BOTH WAYS.
“The main goal here is to develop a new typology of adversaries and to zoom in on those who get stronger when engaged in strategic performance. The paper draws upon the concept of antifragility, popularized by Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his book Anti-fragile: The Things That Gain from Disorder. I argue that depending on their reaction to strategic performance, adversaries can be put on a spectrum from fragile to resilient, to antifragile ones. To keep the scope of the investigation reasonably limited, the paper focuses on the effects of strategic performance on the adversary’s military capabilities rather on his will to fight. The first category describes the adversaries whose military capabilities shrink as a consequence of engaging in strategic performance. The second category is reserved for those adversaries who are able to replenish their military capabilities to the original position after engaging in strategic performance. The last category describes those adversaries whose military capabilities increase as a consequence of taking part in strategic performance. These are, of course, ideal types and their manifestations in strategic practice are less clear-cut.”
That was a really great read. That is actually very helpful, and hopeful in that I can now use that as a strategic metric to understand how “The Plan” was corrupted by various forces to reduce its capabilities of “teaching us to fight”.
Q was in essence an antifragility builder, which scared the scheming left, so they figured out ways to reduce its effectiveness. But now, learning FROM those efforts, we can actually make some quantum leaps in gained fighting ability – which is prime antifragility.
Not all will see this, but that’s OK. Booster stage will fall away, but many will realize it, and make the leap to the next stage.
The JE Dyer article that GA/FL posted shows that this is huge. By simply not allowing this election to be normalized, EVERYTHING changes. And that gets into what Grandma is posting from Vox Day – antifragility – TEACHING US TO FIGHT.
We cannot learn to fight by assuming somebody else is going to rescue us. And this resolves all questions about Q, and what Q really was, versus what was inflicted on the movement in a very deep and cunning fashion.
We have to go back to the drops themselves (DP does this regularly), and recognize that there ARE forces which understand the predicament, but they are UNABLE TO ACT without us becoming both STRONG and ANTIFRAGILE.
Mere belief in our destiny will not do it.
Flynn is the key. We HAVE to study his military strategy – not to PARROT it, but to USE it and EXTEND it. In searching for some of it, I keep getting IKE back from search engines, because the neural nets understand the relationship. That goes back to THE PLAN, including the parts we have to GUESS.
Rich Higgins in essence extends Flynn by correctly identifying the Red-Green axis and getting out from under the inflicted paradigm of not realizing who is really behind terrorism – who the enemy really is. Flynn forces realization of who the enemy actually is and the absolute necessity of such identification.
We ARE doing this already – embracing the complexity of enemy identification in a complex world. But we cannot rely on others to do our fighting. We must capitalize on winning strategies, and most of all, we must take to heart Flynn’s advice from that telegram message.
One is just a repeat at the end – and is the first idea of this post – that we should not give our GAME PLAN to the enemy. And I’m not. I’ve been SITTING on a lot of great strategy for the last week or so. Stuff I would normally talk about. Now nowhere to be seen. Stuff that will RAIN HELL upon the enemy.
Yup. MAGA Mom is asking what the big strategy is.
Sorry – I’m NOT sharing it, because it’s gonna NUKE these commies. But I will give you TACTICS, like Michael’s little doozy here:
In the event of loss of comms, find something communist and break it.
A second idea is the VALUE of UNYIELDING REJECTION of the FRAUDULENT ELECTION. Note what Flynn said: “I do not believe for a second that our country will accept Vice President Biden as the next President.” Yeah. Every day is proving that the rejection of Trump by leftists was NOTHING next to the current REJECTION OF ZUCKERBERG’S FRAUD.
Yeah, the commies may have been louder and even violent in their rejection of Trump. But our silence toward this mockery of a president is DEAFENING.
And a third is this.
Gab and Parler were both prescient as free speech networks before they were desperately needed. But why is GAB still standing as REAL free speech, and Parler was not only deplatformed, but came back “throwing in the towel” on free speech, with AI shadowbans in place?
Torba has referred – correctly – to Gab as being both robust and antifragile. Antifragile is a GOOD THING. It enables a movement to SURVIVE.
So how do we make our plan ANTIFRAGILE?
BREAK IT FIRST – AND OUR WAY
For THAT, we’re going to BEAT MAO AT HIS OWN GAME.
❀❀❀❀❀ Let A Thousand Plans Blossom ❀❀❀❀❀
We often hear the phrase “let a thousand flowers bloom”, or something similar, which is roughly attributed to Mao Zedong, but is typically used in a more capitalist, business, organizational, or “free thought” setting in Western society. It is something like a “call for democratic input”.
Now – here is what WOLF thinks about Mao and his Hundred Flowers Campaign.
Mao was a weak thinker, but an admirably persistent psychopath, hooked down to his SOUL on the greatest ideology of HATE and ENVY to ever rise from the BOWELS OF HELL. The parallels to Obama are uncanny, and BLM has both Mao and Obama written all over it. Obama hides his Maoism well, but not from THE WOLF.
As a cagey player, Mao saw all the possible outcomes of 100 Flowers, including things beyond his reach, but because he was pursuing a WEAK and universe-failing version of socialism, which cannot admit the existence and role of “God” and religion – even as abstractions and ideals of higher thought – he was playing a game he could not win. The 100 Flowers stratagem almost HAD to default into a trust operation, because Mao was not a strong enough thinker to modify Marx’s elite-born “sabotaged socialism” to even a TRULY “Chinese” version, much less correct the intrinsic failings of a crippled, self-worshiping system that turns politics into a faulty religion.
You think the dead white men were idiots, commies? Your “dear leader” is barely cold in historical terms, and he fucked up so badly, firing from his quiver full of dogshit, that all he could do well was KILL PEOPLE.
But hey – we can fix that.
If Mao had the expansively emergent advantages of TRUTH as a basis, available to religious thinkers like Christ – or more significantly Buddha and Confucius in his case – he could have tolerated even the NON-CONSTRUCTIVE criticisms generated by 100 Flowers, and would have likely created something broken but still semi-unifying like Titoism, rather than the sequential failures that he did, with 100 Flowers first degenerating into the intellectually self-defeating Anti-Rightist Campaign, and then into the democidal Great Leap Forward, and finally into the ridiculous failure upon failure of the Cultural Revolution.
100 Flowers simply cannot work for the commies.
Well, hold our THOUSAND BEERS, commies, as we toss a THOUSAND GRENADES into YOUR PLANS.
The advantage of fighting from the downside is that everything in THEIR POWER is a target, and you don’t actually NEED a unified plan to bring it down.
Sorry – let me restate that. You don’t even WANT a unified plan.
Just take THIS:
In the event of loss of comms, find something communist and break it.
And ADD COMMS.
Find something communist, break it, and show others how.
Now ACCEPT THIS. Not everybody CAN or SHOULD follow your lead.
You want to WORK WITHIN THE SYSTEM? Be my guest.
You want to BRING THE SYSTEM DOWN? Be my guest.
You want to CONSTRUCT A PARALLEL SYSTEM? Be my guest.
BREAK COMMUNISM AND SHOW US HOW.
This is where I was starting to go earlier, with the idea that I’m not going to criticize what you’re doing, because it may work for somebody else. Even the hopium smokers NEED their hopium – let ’em smoke.
It is by us NO LONGER ALL BEING HOPIUM SMOKERS, THAT HOPIUM DREAMS MIGHT COME TRUE.
See?
We are BREAKING Q to make it ANTIFRAGILE.
EVENTUALLY – when enough of the REST OF US raise enough HELL HEAVEN, maybe their HOPIUM DREAMS COME TRUE, and “somebody” decides to act.
But until then, all we have to do is
FIND COMMUNISM AND BREAK IT.
Ironically, this is exactly what I’m doing here. 100 Flowers1000 Plans is not just taking communism’s FAILURE and broadcasting it – it’s beating them over the head with it – from every possible direction.
WE are actually “diversity-tolerant”. So why not use that STRENGTH to beat these fuckers to a PULP?
They are always looking for US to latch onto a cheap, easy, single strategy for THEM to counter.
Sometimes they even FEED THAT to us, like Ali Satan and his “Stop The Steal” trust operation.
STARVE THEM OF EASY OPTIONS.
Now – this is JUST TACTICS. It ain’t strategy.
Do I have one?
Oh, hell, yes, woman.

“Do not lose hope. Do not give up.” -General Flynn
And – in my opinion – that even includes that bottle of hopium-laced wine, made famous in this interview, near the end. Whatever you BELIEVE – whatever you TRUST – WHOEVER you trust – don’t give up hope.
No matter how this plays out, the best is yet to come. –Wolf
Nobody expected Chris Wray to play Mafia Nan’s queen of diapers face-up on January 6, but that is exactly what appears to have happened.
The only question now is WHY.
To quote a friend from a former life, “AYE-YI-YI!”
OK – let me back up a bit.
First, I want to thank phoenixrising for her comment HERE, which alerted me to a post on Telegram from Tierney Real News, which can be found HERE and repeated HERE, about an article on John Solomon’s JustTheNews, by their Chief National Security Correspondent, Susan Katz Keating, which can be found HERE:
…..before we get into the substance of this article, a few reminders.
OK – that’s minimizing. It’s bigger than just a few reminders. Let’s get started.
Background
This is now the FOURTH article in the “Buffalo Jump” series, covering my perspective of the Capitol Hill “Reichstag” event as a PLOT by Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, and many others to “finish off” President Donald Trump AND his movement.
Please feel free to go back to these prior articles for reference:
I cannot claim credit for realizing that the tactical maneuver of Trump’s supporters to their political demise on January 6, 2021 at Capitol Hill, in Washington, DC, was something known to American historians and anthropologists as a buffalo jump. However, as soon as I heard the ill-fated demonstration called that, all my questions about what …

I have recently come into possession of information which made a lot of things start making a lot more sense. I only needed a final confirmation that I was correct – and I just …
These three prior articles (please see the valuable discussions in the comments, in all cases) can be summarized as follows:
Explanation of the Capitol Hill event in terms of a Native American “buffalo jump”
How aftermath recriminations show the event was logistically set up to fail as it did
How cringeworthy performances and sketchy backgrounds of dubious chaos provocateurs implicate anti-Trump military elements using leftist cover as part of the coup
Generally speaking, beyond these opinion pieces, there seems to be an emerging consensus on the pro-Trump right of the following:
There was some sort of coordinated, planned effort to lead Trump and his movement into some kind of Reichstag moment, to finish off Trump as a political force.
Violence was largely provoked and initiated by people associated with leftist groups, but many of Trump’s supporters were clearly drawn into the mayhem.
While the events of January 6 resulted in successful certification of a highly fraudulent election, they failed to end the political career of Trump, or the strength of his movement, still dominating GOP politics.
Beyond those widely held ideas, there are also strongly held opinions among different groups on the right. Some of these opinions are highly divergent.
I will go from roughly “most commonly held” to “most divergent”.
There may have been either some awareness of a plot by elements on the pro-Trump side, or in the absence of prior awareness, a very fast and skilled response to the events of that day.
The Insurrection Act may have been invoked by Trump and is likely still in effect.
The Ashli Babbitt shooting was either:
very real and an assault on patriots that requires justice
very real and Trump’s fault
a phony provocation which failed to initiate greater violence
a phony shock-event designed to STOP greater violence
The whole thing was a giant sting operation against all of Trump’s enemies
Biden’s presidency is limited in some fashion
There are two Presidents
Trump is still the only real President
The Biden administration is not real and is not actually in power.
People are being arrested and we are watching actors and not real people
There is no plan and we are doomed.
There are many more schools of thought, and I won’t get into all of them. However, I think we can mostly agree about the following items which concern THIS article:
Nancy Pelosi was likely involved in any treachery on that day, January 6, 2021.
The FBI was the primary force directed against Trump’s followers who either entered the Capitol or participated in violence.
So THAT positions the two main players here – but not completely.
Before we get back to the article, we have more “background” to discuss. In particular, a prior article on this site.
I’ve decided there is too much here to do a summary – we need a CLEARINGHOUSE. Please submit more information in comments, and we’ll include links here. Wikipedia: Nancy Pelosi’s father and related mob articles Pelosi’s Father: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_D%27Alesandro_Jr. Archived Version: https://archive.md/HWVJj The above article is very interesting because the authors (likely Pelosi aides) HIDE the …
Now, as the title suggests, the article is more a bibliography of other sources on Nancy D’Alesandro’s family background, than it is a new investigation of any kind. I didn’t even bother to quote much of it – just to provide links. I did comment on the “grooming” of her father’s Wikipedia article to HIDE her mob background.
I recommend checking out some of the links, including one where the author stopped by in the comments! Likewise, it’s worth looking at Aubergine’s comment which explains Pelosi’s behavior in a most excellent way.
SO – with all that taken care of, let’s get back to the new story.
Switching over to text for our low-vision folks…..
and inserting a few pictures…..
and starting over at the beginning…..
While Washington, D.C. was riveted Jan. 6 on events at the U.S. Capitol, the FBI quietly released a trove of files from an “urgent” — yet seemingly controlled — investigation 60 years ago into Nancy Pelosi’s father.
The files reveal the results of an intense two-month investigation into Thomas D’Alesandro, Jr., a Maryland politician who served in a long career as a member of Congress and mayor of Baltimore.
John F. Kennedy’s White House ordered the investigation after JFK planned to appoint D’Alesandro to a government post. A routine FBI name check revealed “allegations” against D’Alessandro, according to a Feb. 6, 1961 teletype from “FBI Director.” The director at the time was J. Edgar Hoover.
The “urgent” teletype seemed to signal the goal of ensuring that D’Alesandro would be appointed to a government watchdog board that reviewed defense contracts.
“The White House has requested that we proceed with a special inquiry investigation but that if substantial derogatory information were developed, we should report this and discontinue any further inquiries because substantiation of any of the allegations would eliminate Mr. D’Alesandro,” the FBI director wrote in the teletype that is located on page 19 of the trove.
“Assign immediately,” Hoover wrote, instructing the Baltimore and Washington field offices to “afford continuous attention” to the investigation.
In sometimes illegible and heavily redacted reproductions, the 248-page collection shows that FBI agents were tasked with running down rumors and facts surrounding their man.
“There have been allegations that D’Alesandro has associated with the Baltimore criminal element and [redacted] and the son, Franklin Roosevelt D’Alesandro, had been arrested for rape,” an agent wrote on page 14 of the trove. The allegations may have been rumor, the agent noted.
Elsewhere in the trove, agents wrote about the son, who was arrested and acquitted on charges that saw others convicted of raping two young girls, aged 11 and 13. The young D’Alesandro, who died in 2007, also was tried and acquitted of perjury in relation to that case.
In the 1961 inquiry into the senior D’Alesandro, the G-men delved decades into their subject’s past.
“In 1945 it was alleged that one Charles F. Cammarata had been able to get away with all sorts of criminal activities in Baltimore, Maryland, and had operated almost unmolested due to his friendship with and the protection of Congressman D’Alesandro,” one unnamed agent wrote in a Jan. 30, 1961 memo to the White House.
In the same memo, which begins on page 38 of the collection, the agent summarizes allegations that a powerful D’Alesandro took payoffs from applicants to the police force, and that he helped to hinder the investigation and prosecution of crimes.
The following year, the memo notes, D’Alesandro was reported as the main speaker at an event for the International Workers Order, an insurance organization placed on a list of subversive organizations by the U.S. attorney general in 1947 and later disbanded by order of the New York State Insurance Department for being too closely aligned with the Communist Party, in violation of regulations prohibiting political activity in the industry.
In a series of endorsements commencing on page 129 of the trove, a phalanx of associates — judges, politicians, friends, and acquaintances — described D’Alesandro in glowing terms. He was “upright,” they said, or “loyal,” “honest,” and a devoted family man.
Two acquaintances hedged their praise. In an undated memo, one agent wrote: “Another individual stated he would be hesitant in recommending D’Alesandro for any office where he would be in a position to award contracts without first having the approval of another supervisor.”
Following the investigation, the Senate confirmed D’Alesandro for the contract oversight position. He was sworn into office on March 28, 1961, while his wife, along with JFK and a young Nancy, looked on. D’Alesandro served on the Renegotiation Board, which later was disbanded.
In 1966, Mildred Stegall, who at the time was an assistant to President Lyndon Baines Johnson, contacted the FBI and asked them to search their files for material on D’Alesandro. The resulting FBI memo, dated Sept. 21, 1966 and reproduced on page 16 of the trove, did not explain why Stegall wanted the information.
The FBI did not disclose why the entire collection was released on Jan. 6, and did not immediately respond to Just the News.
Speaker Pelosi did not respond to questions from Just the News.
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT.
Before commenting further, I would encourage you to check out the FBI document yourself. Compared to many of these FBI drops, this one is high in information, lacking in annoying redactions, and easy to navigate.
I think that the JustTheNews article is really good – HOWEVER – like all journalism, it has a point of view, and this one could be described as “concise yet hitting all the ‘newsworthy’ (read ‘potentially scandalous’) points briefly, to the point of mild distortion”.
That’s not a diss. Frankly, we are LUCKY to get journalism like this. However, what this means is that when you read the actual document, there are a LOT of subtleties and general impressions that come out, which DO NOT MATCH the article’s synopsis.
I found that I had to RESET my initial impressions after I read the FBI document, to realize that the JTN analysis was very good, but did not openly state some of the things I am about to say.
First off, the impression that the actual FBI collection gives, is that D’Alesandro was a GREAT GUY – a really honest fellow, a “pillar of his community”. JustTheNews addresses this prevalence of glowing testimonials, but it’s actually much different to see them in print.
It’s very interesting to note that almost all the witnesses who DO say anything other than “great guy, loyal citizen, pillar of the community” state that any quibbles with D’Alesandro were either “just business” or “just politics”. He is otherwise described as a proud child of immigrants, very religious, and otherwise a very admirable person.
So what gives?
SUBTLETY. The mark of the mafia.
There are no smoking guns here.
We don’t see brazen criminality. Instead, we see things like ONE WITNESS (the article said two – I only saw one myself) hinting that D’Alesandro could not be fully trusted with contracts (implying favoritism, “pay to play”, etc.).
We don’t see D’Alesandro waving commie red flags. Instead, we see him CANCELING an engagement when the press found out there were REAL LIVE COMMUNISTS associated with an event he was signed up for.
We don’t see informants stating any knowledge that D’Alesandro mixed it up with the communists they were watching. Instead, we remember that the LOUD AND OBVIOUS commies and the QUIET AND STEALTHY ones rarely intersect, lest the cover of the latter be blown.
Instead of D’Alesandro associating OPENLY with the Soviets and pro-Soviet Americans during the McCarthy years, we see him doing so ONLY during World War II.
We don’t see D’Alesandro naming his kids Sasha, Tanya, Vladimir and Dimitri. Instead, we see him name a kid after OUR socialist, Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
AND this.
We don’t find Nancy Pelosi ordering a mob hit and getting caught.
But we DO find Nancy D’Alesandro’s MOTHER – also named Nancy D’Alesandro – testifying about the books, in a trial involving a construction company with an Italian owner.
A real nothingburger – right? That’s what it sure sounds like.
Now this point is extremely interesting, and is a BEAUTIFUL example of Baltimore corruption.
You just read that statement by the subsequent mayor – right? Saying that the former Mayor D’Alesandro was a great guy. Right? Sounds totally on the up and up. Right?
Another serious allegation against D’Alesandro was that he had received kickbacks from building developer Dominic Piracci on city contracts. Piracci’s account ledger included several payments totaling $11,000 to D’Alesandro which he later erased to keep the information from investigators. The developer later explained that the payments were legitimate loans to Mrs. D’Alesandro to finance her cosmetics business which since had been fully repaid, and he doctored the documents only “to save” the D’Alesandro family “from embarrassment and from further trouble” given a criminal investigation into his business practices. In April 1954 Piracci “was found guilty of conspiracy to defraud the city of $42,996 in connection with the construction of an off-street parking garage in Baltimore,” and also found guilty for “obstruction of justice in that he submitted to a Baltimore City Grand Jury a ‘completely phony’ ledger to conceal $35,000 in weekly payments to the Peoples Holding Corporation” whose officers “were also charged with conspiracy to defraud Baltimore City in an off-street parking garage contract.” Mrs. D’Alesandro testified on Piracci’s behalf at his criminal trial, and although she insisted the “loans” from Piracci were repaid there was no documentary evidence to corroborate that testimony. The supposed repayments were made in cash rather than by check. Mrs. D’Alesandro’s testimony may have saved her husband’s sorry ass from criminal liability but could not save his then-bid to become Maryland’s governor. The D’Alesandro’s son Thomas III later married Piracci’s daughter Margaret.
Thomas D’Alesandro Jr. and the Mafia
Quite a bit of difference – right?
Indeed, reading this whole SOTN2012 article puts the entire FBI drop in a whole new light.
The difference is NIGHT AND DAY.
SO – here is the big question.
WHY?
Why drop this fluffy light version of the truth?
Why drop this FAUX SCANDAL about Pelosi’s father – when the full truth seems to be much more damning?
And why drop it on January 6, 2021?
I’m open to suggestions. Very open.

Addendum: A Byrne-Moore Theory of FBI “Go-Along Plus Leverage” For Institutional Preservation of Independence at a Power Transition
OK, people. I think I’ve got it.
This is the result of a good night’s sleep, some discussions with my wife about Trump’s relationship with his various Secretaries of Defense, and roughly 50 GREAT comments by the posters here. I feel like I can pull it all together into a coherent picture.
Here are some of the components:
“Friday night drop syndrome”
Thomas D’Alesandro, Jr. (TDAJ hereafter) mob, CIA, Soviet connections
Urban renewal, construction, and kickback culture as family constants
Patrick Byrne’s account of FBI trying to gain leverage on Hillary Clinton in 2016
Michael Moore’s (the other one – Thomas Paine’s) account of FBI political shenanigans before and after 2008 transition
Comey and Company getting leverage on Trump in 2016 election
All accounts of Christopher Wray being institutionally loyal to the FBI
Soviet/CIA long-term strategy of weakening America to global control through “endless war”
Pentagon / MIC buy-in on endless war and opposition to Trump and his “peace SecDef” ideas
Likely FBI knowledge of Pelosi’s plot, but no visible evidence of it
All of this stuff fits together into a neat theory of what is going on.
I will try to explain it in no particular order, but hopefully so it makes sense.
If we look at FBI antics in 2016 (and other years) in a non-partisan way, including both Byrne’s revelations AND Trump’s revelations, it looks like the FBI engages in a behavior which can be looked at as either VERY SWAMP or ANTI-HEROIC WITHIN THE SWAMP. That behavior is to maintain independence by holding LEVERAGE over whoever is in charge.
That is to say, the FBI seeks to hold something over everybody, but particularly a new President. Arguably, this is so they can stay somewhat apolitical in a highly political environment.
SIDEBAR:Yet, if we understand social theory, we know that the socialists are fully aware that they can shift the baseline politics both within and underneath the FBI despite FBI efforts, so that the FBI trying to “right the ship” in a strong current can only work to SOME extent to depoliticize, and the socialists are OK with this.
The result is that FBI presents a new or recently shifted power-holder with both “silver and lead”. These may even be false offerings and entrapments into crime.
The “lead” is “we have certain stuff that can destroy you”.
The “silver” is “we didn’t destroy you with certain stuff”.
The TWO different “certain stuffs” may be the SAME THING or they may be DIFFERENT.
SO – what we have here is a combination of the silver and the lead.
This “offering” to Pelosi on January 6 is in some ways a way of saying “we know what you did there” regarding the Capitol Hill plot – the buffalo jump. It WAS a traditional “Friday night drop” in order to not attract TOO MUCH attention, yet at the same time, to get SOME attention. It was CALIBRATED to be associated with the January 6 plot, but not enough to be provably so, or detrimental in that way. It was QUIET ENOUGH to be a kind of “peace offering”.
Thus, the Capitol Hill cover-up offering is – per se – mostly silver and a hint of lead, based on the timing and association. “Silver bullets can still kill“, saithTHE WOLF.
However, what is IN THE BULLET? Is it just “silver jacketed”? Silver plated? Methinks so. I think there is a lot of LEAD THERE – hidden in the package.
I think Grandmaintexas is right – this is a whitewash – again – MOAR SILVER – but even more specifically what Aubergine is thinking – a show of possible lead – getting ahead of ALL FUTURES which would include impeachment, failed impeachment, backfire with Trump the victor, and specifically futures where ANYBODY has enough power or leverage to throw the FBI under the bus.
FBI did not “show the lead” – only hinting at it – in part to make it a peace offering to Pelosi – but even more to micromanage the outcome to exactly where they wanted it – leaving the D’Alesandro family baggage under the rug, where it still gives FBI continuous leverage over Pelosi.
But FBI also “exposed different lead” very slightly as a threat to Trump – “we can protect Pelosi – you’re finished for 2020 – remember that”.
NOW – this is very interesting. We see the SAME THING going on under J. Edgar Hoover, in several of the documents themselves, where CONGRESSMAN Thomas D’Alesandro Jr. is either writing to the FBI or commenting to agents, OR when Hoover is telling people to, essentially, “back off if they find anything”. TDAJ always subtly mentions his “good relationship” with the FBI, but he even more subtly hints at whatever POWER he has over them.
We see the BALANCE OF POWER – the negotiation – the “Art of the Swamp Deal“. Pure MAFIA.
It is almost as if the documents are saying “If you don’t understand that this is a deal, just look in the documents themselves. We cut a deal with Thomas D’Alesandro, Jr., then – we’re cutting a deal with his daughter now.”
We are left to GUESS what is NOT in the documents – what is being hinted at – but I’m pretty certain that it has much to do with the famiglia D’Alesandro having both Soviet connections they find embarrassing to some parties, particularly in connection to the defense appointment, and to the assassination of JFK, as well as all the dirty mob and/or CIA stuff that is intentionally not mentioned in the drop.
Chrissy Mercury shows the silver lining to Caprodite, but we all know that ZEUS can throw his bolts from the clouds if she gets out of line with her fellow gods and demigods.
Epic. We truly live in historic times. And yes. Washington becomes Olympus.
