KT McFarland – Germany has no intention of backing Biden, won’t be sending NATO troops, they desperately need LNG and oil from Russia for heat and gas now and more so next year 8500 troops to Eastern Europe? Where specifically, to do what? Press left confused after today’s conference Biden wants to be seen as doing something 🙄
Monday afternoon, MonkeyWerx surfaced from his cold/flu coma to actually try to convince the audience that war really is imminent.
Anonymous Conservative is adding headlines to support the concept that Putin is being the aggressor.
“Fully one-third of Russia’s GDP is from its oil and gas production. Polish and Ukrainian natural resource extraction is minuscule. If the 144 million Russians had to share their oil and gas income with the 44 million Ukrainians, their GDP per capita would fall near 20% from $11,000 to close to $9,000. By comparison, U.S. GDP per capita was $63,544 in 2020.
The Russians don’t have the spare funds to invade Ukraine and fix up Ukrainian roads and pay their pensions. The Russian Army developed a nice new tank, the T-14, but can’t afford to build more than a handful. The Russian Air Force developed a new fighter, the Su-57, but can pay for only a token number of them. Russian irredentism, if there is any, has to wait for a much, much higher oil price. Meanwhile, the adults in the room should be conferring on the China threat.”
All of it adds up to the very real possibility that the whole Russia/Ukraine thing is a smokescreen.
Anytime the [DS] needs to create a distraction or gin up more money, we in the west end up in a war no one wants.
And now the push is on to provoke Putin into a war that’s going to put a crimp in his petroleum profits when the Russian military is not really as strong as reported?
Who is running the [DS] these days?
It’s like the brain trust is gone.
Oh, wait….

1Again he began to teach beside the sea. And a very large crowd gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole crowd was beside the sea on the land. 2And he taught them many things in parables, and in his teaching he said to them: 3“Listen! A sower went out to sow. 4And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it. 5Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil; 6and when the sun rose it was scorched, and since it had no root it withered away. 7Other seed fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain. 8And other seeds fell into good soil and brought forth grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.” 9And he said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” 10And when he was alone, those who were about him with the twelve asked him concerning the parables. 11And he said to them, “To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is in parables; 12so that they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand; lest they should turn again, and be forgiven.” 13And he said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables? 14The sower sows the word. 15And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown; when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word which is sown in them. 16And these in like manner are the ones sown upon rocky ground, who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy; 17and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away. 18And others are the ones sown among thorns; they are those who hear the word, 19but the cares of the world, and the delight in riches, and the desire for other things, enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful. 20But those that were sown upon the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”

As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.
And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.

In the battle over voting rights, an idea is starting to move around in Republican circles: designated police forces designed to hunt down voter fraud. You can see the problem when you are dealing with intelligence operations, though. Anything you create, any organization, any position, will just become a target for infiltration and subversion. And once taken over, its existence, combined with its assurance to the public there is no problem, actually works against you, inducing complacency in the populace. The first thing which must happen, and the only real solution, is schooling the populace in how intelligence operations work, and how they are the threat and the problem. So long as the population is naive to the machinations of intelligence, there will be no government of, by, and for the people.
Democrats are already showing early signs of questioning the legitimacy of the elections in 2022 and 2024. Theoretically, if I were Q and had taken control of the Cabal machinery, and was looking to wake up everybody, first I would blatantly steal the election from Trump to wake up Republicans to the fact our elections were fraudulent, then I would make sure the Democrats felt the 2022 election was fraudulent and stolen from them. Once both sides felt robbed by a corrupt, rigged system, and saw they had no control, then a reveal of the fraud and implementation of a fix would be accepted by both sides.
This describes most people in my circles. Lots of degrees. Not much in the way of sense.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
1But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 2and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. 3Now as he journeyed he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven flashed about him. 4And he fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” 5And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting; 6but rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.” 7The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one. 8Saul arose from the ground; and when his eyes were opened, he could see nothing; so they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. 9And for three days he was without sight, and neither ate nor drank. 10Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Anani’as. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Anani’as.” And he said, “Here I am, Lord.” 11And the Lord said to him, “Rise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for a man of Tarsus named Saul; for behold, he is praying, 12and he has seen a man named Anani’as come in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight.” 13But Anani’as answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to thy saints at Jerusalem; 14and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call upon thy name.” 15But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel; 16for I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name.” 17So Anani’as departed and entered the house. And laying his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” 18And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes and he regained his sight. Then he rose and was baptized, 19and took food and was strengthened. For several days he was with the disciples at Damascus. 20And in the synagogues immediately he proclaimed Jesus, saying, “He is the Son of God.” 21And all who heard him were amazed, and said, “Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called on this name? And he has come here for this purpose, to bring them bound before the chief priests.” 22But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived in Damascus by proving that Jesus was the Christ.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Tonight is a special night. We invite ALL SCIENTISTS to come down to the bar for TWO HOURS, and listen to one scientist appeal to our LOGIC and our COMMON SENSE on the TOXIC BATCH PROBLEM.
ALL WHO WISH are invited to sit down, drink in hand, and watch – but it is especially important that ALL SCIENTISTS see this.
It is my contention that if ALL scientists in the world – on this planet – watch this video that I will show you, then the entire WORLD will be QUICKLY AWAKENED to the reality of some kind of systematic problem with the current COVID vaccines – some kind of problem which is evidenced by toxicity showing up with certain batches.
But more about that later.
Right now, come into the bar and find a comfy spot.
While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE.
Though we are not especially good at mixing tasty drinks, we can stir some occasional thoughts into a compelling report, argument, recollection, or proposition.
And with that barest promise, we begin.
On the Jukebox
The rare live version of a song rarely found on any bar jukebox – enjoy!
Psalm 118:19-24
19Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter and give thanks to the LORD.
20This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter through it.
21I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation.
22The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
23This is from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
24This is the day that the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Christmas Spirit
We are going to stretch out Christmas longer than your neighbor who never takes down their Christmas lights.

STAY TUNED!!!
And now, the rules of the pub.
HOUSE RULES
God bless us, every one! Tiny Tim had such a beautiful soul. He hadn’t a mean bone in his body…unlike most of us. But in keeping with Christmas, we promise to honor Wolf’s rules and keep Scrooge at bay. The Utree is where the Ghost of Christmas Present will conduct you should you need to rattle some chains. Another option, should all hell break loose is here.
Now, back to business.
AMEN!

Current Art On The Wall
We opened this week’s shipment, and there was a note on top of the contents that said:
“DANGER: STEAMPUNK”
Looks like a real Pandora’s box to me!
Sure enough, the very next thing we found was MONDAY’S LEFTOVERS.
Mmmmmmmmm. Remember – if the can isn’t actually bulging, you can ignore the date!
Click it! The music seems useful for viewing the remainder of the art!
MOAR COWBELL GEARS!!!
Yeah, I’m enjoying this timeframe-loosening absinthe of sorts.
Indeed, absinthe per se seems to be a meme in steampunk.
Look for GREENPUNK as a subgenre of STEAMPUNK.
OK – one more image and then back to reality.
LOL. Nope. That’s not it.
Let’s try another.
AYE-YI-YI. That’s not it, either. I get the sentiment, but I tend to think the devil’s in certain details of the genre, and – as always in the art world – one must proceed with caution.
Although I do have a story about a fantastic dream you may have heard. In some ways, it was the opposite of steampunk, but it had a certain similar quality of alternate reality about it.
Let’s try one more.
Hey – that’s not steampunk! That’s REALPUNK.
I’ll let Steve tell us all about it.
In the meanwhile, we take leave of the infinitude of artistic imagination, and find ourselves back at the concrete.
Or so one might think!
And now our feature presentation
The Anti-Saline Theory and The Toxic Batch Problem – Did Somebody Actually Contaminate Lots of the Vaccines?
I never really thought that I might be defending Big Pharma – in whole or in part – at this point in the multiple scandals of the COVID-19 Plannedemic.
Maybe “defending” isn’t the right word. Maybe “presenting a potentially somewhat exonerating theory” IS the right phrase.
In fact, I don’t even know WHO I’m exonerating, or or that matter, WHO I’m accusing. Likewise, I’m not even sure who the TARGETS of the perpetrators in this “theory” actually are.
However, this is not a “conspiracy theory” – something which is generally certain of perpetrators, victims, and motives.
This is a CRIMINAL THEORY. This is a theory which allows us to begin to examine an apparent crime, in order to determine perpetrators, victims, and motives. It’s a theory which may even be wrong.
I ask all of you to briefly set aside prejudices, which is often necessary to do when evidence needs to be viewed as potential exoneration. Feel free to bring your prejudices and prior theories back AFTER you have looked at these possibilities, because you will need to compare theories, and your current favorites need to CONTEND with what I’m proposing here.
Thus, we begin.
The Saline Theory
The SALINE THEORY – which many regard as a criminal theory, and which others regard as a “conspiracy theory”, contends that the reason some people have either NO REACTION or ALMOST NO REACTION to the “clot shot” – meaning all the standard Western COVID-19 vaccines – is that those people are being given medical saline solution instead of actual coronavirus vaccines.
The proposed motives for this, generally speaking, are either to spare particular individuals from the problems of the vaccines, OR to statistically reduce the numbers of people being KILLED or INJURED by the vaccines to acceptable levels.
Now, in full disclosure, I have been generally, if quietly, rather critical of the saline theory, despite the fact that I am very skeptical of Big Pharma in general, and even more skeptical of Pfizer and Moderna.
Why am I skeptical of the theory? Basically, because it doesn’t really change most vaccines. In a sentence, vaccines are DESIGNED to approximate saline.
In the history of vaccines, the GOAL has always been to literally approach the state of “injecting people with saline” – meaning not much of anything is given, and nothing bad happens.
Thus, an ideal vaccine – and in practice most good vaccines – basically do nothing except grant immunity, which until recently was always expected to be inferior to “natural” disease-conferred immunity.
Let me point out AS AN ASIDE right here that the industry lost megatons of credibility by letting the media trot out nonsense about vaccine immunity being better than disease-conferred immunity, allegedly negating centuries of medical knowledge. Foolish to abandon the truth on that one. Clearly the result of Big Pharma now having the upper hand against Big Med, thanks to Big Finance, and the willingness of Big Media to tell any lie. But I digress.
The point is simple. We EXPECT normal, good vaccines to have very few adverse events – so rare that we rarely hear about them – and that people basically ARE getting saline.
In other words, people generally can’t tell the difference between a good vaccine, a “bad because too weak” vaccine, and saline.
THAT’S THE POINT – that the REALITY of rare adverse events is expected to MATCH our experience of almost never hearing about or experiencing first, second, or third-hand, that somebody had a problem with a vaccine.
I myself went through life NEVER connecting a vaccine to any personal injury – that is, until I got over 30 years of flu shots, religiously, but then switched to my dominant shoulder for no particular reason, and experienced subsequent NOTICEABLE inflammatory issues which were very likely connected to the vaccine. All that being said, I was much older at that point, and older people ARE more likely to experience inflammation of joints as part of getting old. Indeed, this didn’t stop me from getting the flu shot for a number of more years – KNOWING that the vaccine might be responsible.
SO – bottom line – I’m not at all skeptical of vaccine injury, from sore arms up to death.
But I remain skeptical of the saline theory – for the stated reasons.
I never throw anything OUT completely – but I have been quite skeptical that there might be ANY kind of conspiracy – even a very realistic one – to replace weak “do-nothing” vaccines that the industry has spent DECADES making, and is quite good at making, with saline that does almost the same thing.
And INDEED – bear the opposite in mind. Bad things happen to people who get placebos, “because math”. And more than that, bad things happen to people who get saline, “because injection”. It’s extremely rare, but it DOES happen. This is an acknowledged truth of Anthony Fauci’s Holy of Holies, the placebo-controlled double-blind study. That’s why researchers factor out the difference which comes simply from “doing the test”.
But the fact is simple. Saline is generally pretty damn safe to inject, because it does nothing. A good vaccine, likewise, does nothing but provide some degree of immunity – hopefully lifelong, but with a number of years generally being acceptable, depending on the vaccine.
SO – if you tell me somebody got saline – I will tell you that they got a “good vaccine”, and we’re left with only some very difficult science to tell which of us is right.
However, all of that has a problem.
A HUGE problem.
The problem is summed up by the fact that almost everybody in the English-speaking world recognizes the term “clot shot” as a grim, joking nickname for the COVID-19 vaccines.
That didn’t happen by accident. Admittedly, it’s an injection for preventing or pre-treating a clotting disease by generating immunity TO a clotting protein WITH that same clotting protein, or something very similar to it. BUT STILL…..
In practice, this is NOT a harmless vaccine. No amount of propaganda changes that.
The Anti-Saline Theory
So what is the ANTI-SALINE THEORY?
The anti-saline theory, based on something called the toxic batch problem, is roughly a mirror image of the saline theory. It thus contends that some of the coronavirus vaccines were the opposite of non-toxic saline which could NOT harm people, and were, in fact, loaded with something nasty which caused illness and death.
Possible motives are likewise mirror images of the saline theory – to either harm certain people, or to INCREASE the number of injuries and deaths from the vaccines.
NOW – let me be clear. In the absence of the “potential evidence” of the toxic batch problem, I would be every bit as skeptical of the anti-saline theory as I am of the saline theory.
Even for a bad, risky, side-effect-prone vaccine, blaming the still-generally-infrequent side-effects on anything BUT the vaccine itself would seem foolhardy. We have MANY “more risky” vaccines for nasty tropical diseases, from yellow fever up to Ebola, which we generally ONLY give to people at high risk of actually getting the disease, because the vaccines may be a LESSER RISK than the disease, but they are an INCREASED RISK over most vaccines.
We normally don’t need to postulate that the cause of that higher risk is adulteration due to a new cause or perpetrator, when we have the vaccine itself and the vaccine makers, presumably fighting the risk but possibly not succeeding as well as we would like, as our primary suspects.
So how does the toxic batch problem change all that?
The Toxic Batch Problem
First, a reflection. A bit of a warning. Something to prepare you.
At the various stages where one understands pieces of this problem, the revelations really cannot be “unseen”. And yet, the fact that this problem WAS unseen by SO many for SO long, raises questions about whether or not we are just now seeing the edges of something which has been with us for far longer than we realized.
I know that sounds a bit fantastic, as well as euphemistic and even a bit “code”, but now you understand why so many people who have gained deep knowledge of problems with the COVID vaccines, have gone through various emotionally jarring moments of realization.
Something is NOT RIGHT, and yet there seems to be INTENTION behind the condition.
SO – if you get HIT by this sort of realization as we are going along, just know that you are not alone.
OK, back to work. Ah, yes. The toxic batch problem.
I can sum it up as this.
Normally, one expects that a consistently produced pharmaceutical has a VERY wide range of reactions in those to whom it is given, BUT that this statistical range of responses (you can imagine a bar graph, a pie chart, a curve, or a whole bunch of all of them) will stay roughly the same from BATCH TO BATCH.
Stated simply, we expect the variation BETWEEN sets of variations to be SMALL, CLOSE, PREDICTABLE, and REPRODUCIBLE.
This is simply the “law of large numbers”. You flip a thousand pennies. I flip a thousand pennies. It’s very unlikely that we’ll get exactly the same numbers, but BOTH OF US will be close to 500 heads and 500 tails. Any deviation from this will be a nice bell curve, perfectly explainable by statistics.
Try any “batch” of pennies – it will be close to 50:50 heads-to-tails because of the consistency of pennies.
The toxic batch problem is that adverse events for the COVID-19 vaccine batches violate this – and in a HUGE WAY.
A small fraction of the batches (about 5%) are STRIKINGLY TOXIC relative to all the other batches.
The differences are too big, the harmless group is too large, the nasty group is too small, and there are additional patterns that are not random and should not be there.
Yes, there will be variation in the exact numbers of deaths and injuries from batch to batch, “because statistics“, but that variation should be small, natural, centered, and understandable mostly in terms of mathematics. If there IS a big difference in the numbers between the batches, then there has to be some kind of systematic difference – most likely either in the contents of the batches, or in the administration of the batches.
Let’s look at the latter first.
As an example of an administration difference, if you give one batch to kids, and another to seniors, you expect differences. However, if the batches are BIG, and they’re used in a lot of different places, and the groups of people those places serve are large and diverse, then the differences from administration will vanish.
And even if those differences DON’T vanish – in FACT, even if you INTENTIONALLY give one batch to kids and another to seniors, those differences cannot be as big as what was observed.
Another administration difference would be to use some batches ONLY for first injections, and others ONLY for second injections.
Again, we do expect differences there, but not nearly as big as what is observed.
IN FACT, the difference between the “good, nearly harmless batches” (doesn’t that sound like saline?) and the BAD batches is SO big, that it is NOT EXPLAINED by ANYTHING seen in the Moderna and Pfizer trials.
THIS is one of our first clues that something is actually wrong with the contents of those toxic batches.
Now – let’s look at the possibility of a difference in contents.
Could it be that the vaccines are “going bad” and turning into something more poisonous?
Yes, this is possible – BUT the fact of the matter is that when drugs degrade, they almost invariably become “less active”, not MORE active – and certainly never MORE active by orders of magnitude.
Rocks just don’t “roll uphill” by themselves.
In fact, there is a great argument you will see later, made about the COVID-19 vaccine data, as compared to the flu vaccine data, which points out that if you remove all the “bad batches” from the COVID-19 vaccine data, it looks almost exactly like the flu shot.
BASICALLY, SALINE.
Like a normal vaccine is supposed to look.
Now, hopefully, you not only understand why I called this the “anti-saline theory”, but you are also “seeing certain things that you cannot unsee”.
Because YES – something is definitely wrong with those batches.
Even if you don’t accept that the majority of batches are “harmless”, something is terribly wrong with the rest.
But before I get into talking about possible reasons as to WHY these “bad batches” are different, I want to thoroughly convince you that they ARE different and that it’s NOT NORMAL.
I want to give you a brief introduction to the toxic batch problem as seen by the people who found it, examined it, and first told the world.
A Pharma Exec & Researcher Examines the Data
We begin with a video of a man who appears to me to be very typical of the scientists that I knew during my career. He does not appear crazy, loony, mentally ill, psychopathic, or even irrational.
He seems, if anything, like somebody who has witnessed institutional madness descending upon their professional world. You know – like what happened to scientists in Russia in the early 1900s, and in Germany and Italy in the 1930s.
As I listened to this guy, he made scientific sense, just like any seminar speaker, invited lecturer, or even an interviewer for student job prospects from a drug company.
In fact, I believe that if most scientists listened to him, they would BELIEVE HIM.
There is something *apparently* wrong with certain specific batches of the COVID vaccines from three companies that were used globally AND specifically in America. And according to the speaker, a retired drug industry executive and research scientist, this difference cannot be random – it must be adulteration of some kind.
The most key and salient point is that vaccine side effects vary strongly by batch number – and in a way that the drug companies MUST understand to be REAL and PROBLEMATIC. The variation is NOT merely statistical from a quality-controlled product. It is systematic – meaning it has a CAUSE other than randomness. It is not necessarily intentional (IMO), but it is an OBVIOUS problem.
There is also some argument over how batch toxicity varies across time and batch number – I will leave THAT for the next videos.
The point which the speaker, Dr. Yeadon, made which struck me hardest, was the simple but powerful idea that the individual responses of recipients to a vaccine batch can vary wildly, BUT that the statistical array of responses will NOT vary significantly between batches – that it CANNOT vary – UNLESS there is some REAL, SIGNIFICANT, CONTENT DIFFERENCE between the batches.
The alternative, in my opinion, would be that the batch differences are administration-based – e.g., that batches primarily used for SECOND administrations would have much higher adverse events.
I’m not wed to that thought – but it is an alternative that is every bit as troubling as content differences, and negates the entire strategy of “boosterism”. I also tend to doubt it, both because it does not explain the magnitude of the difference, and is also statistically very unlikely. Content differences just seem more likely to me.
The People Who Found The Toxic Batch Problem
NEXT, I want to deepen the explanation of what Dr. Yeadon was describing. Yeadon provides drug industry credibility to the idea that batch differences are real and almost certainly content-based. They don’t look right to somebody with industry experience.
But NOW we need to explore possible explanations for those differences, based on a closer look at the differences themselves.
SO – next, I want to show you some additional videos and web pages that drill down into the “toxic batch problem”.
We’ll start with the “secondary reporting” and then get to the data itself.
In this video, Stu Peters and Dr. Jane Ruby, who I criticize routinely when they edge toward clickbait, are doing an AMAZING job of reporting on a group of investigators who studied the batch differences. This is excellent journalism. These two can only be as good as their material, but WOW – they have quality material here.
Now, follow that up with an even deeper examination of the toxic batches.
Jump to 12:50 to continue the discussion. Jane Ruby ends at about 19:00. At 20:00 (to 32:12) it picks back up again with a member of the investigatory group, Team Enigma, who is a pharmaceutical industry bio-statistician. She adds a different perspective on how SMALL any group poisoning the vaccines might be.
This doesn’t require a grand conspiracy of many people. It might involve only a few dedicated and highly skilled saboteurs.
most batches (roughly 80%) are almost completely harmless
the bad batches produce up to (and in MANY cases) a thousand times more adverse reactions
when viewed geographically in the United States, the bad batches affect every state in America
The latter point proves the generality of the effect – that local differences can’t account for the toxicity of the particular lots. If anything, the high distribution of the batches seems to be used to hide the toxicity.
Next, I want to return you to the PERSONAL REALITY of the toxic batch problem.
A Personal Case of a Bad Batch
It turns out that Dr. Robert Malone got one of the “bad batches” for his second vaccine, and almost died.
Lastly, here is a very nice review of work on the toxic batch problem. Very nicely put together, with lots of graphs and key points as quotes. This is a real CONVINCER.
Some of the videos in the review have been removed for some reason, but not this one.
This video is truly stunning. This video shows apparent patterns in the deployment of batches. While I am not fully in agreement that this is proven to be the work of the companies themselves, I think that there is overwhelming evidence of “bad batches” and some kind of pattern which looks like the results are being studied.
By the time you’ve gotten here, you very likely think that something is definitely wrong with certain batches.
Next, I want to begin thinking about HOW and WHY somebody might want to do such a thing. In the process, I’m going to “lean into” some current events and statements made by varous people.
This is where things get political, geopolitical, military, and more.
How and Why Would Anybody Poison the West’s Major COVID Vaccines?
This is where we begin to say to ourselves:
Did somebody actually poison various lots of these vaccines? WHO would do it? Who COULD do it? WHY? Why would ANYBODY do this? HOW did they pull it off? WHAT possible benefit could they get from it? WHERE did they do it?
I’m going to leave most of these questions TO YOU ALL.
I want YOU to tell ME.
Now, we have a list of “usual suspects”, but things get interesting when you consider additional motives, additional suspects, and additional opportunities.
MEANS, MOTIVE, and OPPORTUNITY are what turn “conspiracy theories” into CRIMINAL THEORIES.
So I’m going to give you some “kick-starters” to get you seeing some possibilities.
The first thing that got me thinking “HMMMMM……” about things, was when Team Enigma began seeing evidence of coordination between the drug companies, in the chronology of the toxic batches.
As somebody who has been involved with real conspiracies, the idea that drug companies coordinated their plotting to poison the vaccines does NOT sound realistic.
Real conspiracies need compartmentalization. They need as few as possible seeing the big picture.
Thus, it is MUCH more likely, IMO, that there is a SINGLE player who is involved with ALL of the vaccines – a SINGLE player – who would be able to pull off a systematic study of poisoning them.
One such player is the CCP.
BOTH the Pfizer vaccine AND the Moderna vaccine are utterly dependent upon components manufactured in CHINA. Indeed, the “lipid nanoparticle technology” of the mRNA vaccines is pretty much delivered by Chinese companies.
That is how Karen Kingston discovered that components of the “clot shot” vaccines were manufactured by a Chinese company called SINOPEG, which ALSO specializes in something called “PEGylated graphene oxide”, which is further known to temperature-stabilize mRNA vaccines.
I’m not necessarily saying that graphene oxide was used here, although it’s worth considering.
SIDEBAR: For background on graphene oxide (sometimes called graphene hydroxide – it’s the same thing, really), go HERE.
SIDEBAR: For background on the work by Karen Kingston, former Pfizer employee, who figured out the Chinese connection on the lipid nanoparticle components, go HERE.
Moderna executives are also deeply associated with these Chinese companies and their controlling organizations – see photo below. Note what this page (discovered by Karen Kingston) means – you have COVID-19 vaccines, graphene lipid nanotech IN those same vaccines, and pictures of Moderna executives mentioned on the same page.
If this is not a smoking gun, it’s a pretty damn good imitation, suitable for blackmail.
Thus, it sure seemed possible to ME, that if the CCP or PLA wanted to “intervene” in the vaccines, they have MEANS and OPPORTUNITY.
What about MOTIVE?
Well, Deplorable Patriot found something that got me thinking.
So – according to this theory, the US is being blackmailed by the Chinese government.
As soon as I saw this, I realized exactly HOW the ChiComs could have war-gamed this whole thing for some grand-master play.
CCP/PLA + Cabal makes Western pharma weak and dependent upon ChiCom manufacturing
CCP/PLA has total control of Chinese companies and products they ship
CCP/PLA has total control of information within Chinese borders (remember their “rules” which made many SMART companies LEAVE CHINA)
CCP/PLA begins manipulating people to make them RUN FROM TRUTH and into CHINESE CONTROL
To me, this makes CHINA a no-brainer suspect. It doesn’t matter WHO is POTUS – Biden or Trump – if the vaccines have problems in the West, CHINA wins.
China gets power over the American POTUS
China gets power over the American Deep State
China gets power over the global pharmaceutical industry
Basically, it’s a form of entrapment.
And remember – if China gets caught and wants to blamecast, they can say “it wasn’t us – it was this rogue company cheating” – and nobody can prove otherwise on anything within Chinese borders.
NOW – there could be other players. China is not the only player who would benefit by making the West stumble here.
WEF, for instance, strikes me as “guilty as sin”. If the vaccines were really safe, they could not stir up as much division as we’re seeing. To me, KlauSS SSchwab and the WEFFEN SS have to be a suspect.
Depopulationists are also an easy target.
Satanists as well. This is their thing.
“FOREIGN” could also be doing things independently of their pet globalists and depopulationists.
Russia, unfortunately, is also an easy suspect, thanks to their stupid antics with Skripal and other spies. If the Russians wanted to keep America WEAK, causing a mess with the vaccines to keep Americans divided would be one way to do it. However, I tend to think that they don’t have as much MEANS and OPPORTUNITY as China. But to be fair, we have to keep Russia on the list.
Similarly Ukraine – to which Democrat operative Alexandra Chalupa seems to have some kind of weird supreme loyalty – because it doesn’t have a perfectly clean history on poisonings, either.
Ukrainian opposition presidential candidate Viktor Yushchenko, with his face disfigured by illness, during an interview with the Associated Press in Kiev, Ukraine, Thursday, Dec. 16, 2004. Yushchenko said Thursday that he is sure he was poisoned by the Ukrainian government, and for the first time pinpointed the time and place of his dioxin poisoning: a Sept. 5 lunch with the head of the Ukrainian security service and his deputy.

And, of course, there is our own DEEP STATE, still led in truth by Barack Obama.
Obama seems really committed to a kind of Stalinist, utilitarian, “death panel” health agenda, where health-care shuffles off people to their graves to save money.
Obama’s famous academic and New York Times-featured “moral advisors” on healthcare have always been, and remain in my opinion, a litany of granny-snuffers. SO – if Obama’s “worst of the worst of the KGB faction in CIA” wanted to begin testing depopper stuff on us – well – they could be up to tricks.
But none of them has as much MMO as China.
All in all, CHINA looks like my main suspect.
They poisoned our dog treats forever, making it look like greedy little companies was the extent of the problem.
We just put up with it.
Maybe they got ideas from that.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, SUSPICIOUS CAT?
So who is your main suspect?
Or do you have a different explanation of the toxicity of the shots – and especially something that explains the weirdly binary toxicity / non-toxicity of the batches?
• Can’t be a cult; we don’t know who our leader(s) is/are, and they kept insisting that we learn to think for ourselves. • Accomplished that which would most undermine the cabal; woke up millions of smart, leading-edge thinkers, got us looking and digging, and made sure we would find each other and organize. • Apparently communicated simultaneously to five audiences (h/t to TruthHammer): o Themselves o Anons o The DS (worldwide) o Domestic friendlies (military and civilian) o Foreign friendlies (military and civilian) • Kept morale high for Anons while reducing odds of civil unrest/war. • Helped us dig into and expose the corruption and crimes of: o Our Congress and Senate o Our previous Presidents o Our local politicians and judges o Big Pharma o Mainstream Media o Social Media platforms o Central Bankers and the federal reserve o Wall Street o Hollywood and the music industry • Gave us a “rear view mirror” to use for red pilling as today’s news often points to previous Q drops. • Showed us where to dig and then left us to our own devices. • Occasionally chided us when we either missed nuggets in a dig, or suggested we move and dig elsewhere. • Trained us to distrust EVERYTHING and EVERYONE until properly vetted/sauced.

Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.
32And David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.” 33And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he has been a man of war from his youth.” 37And David said, “The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “Go, and the LORD be with you!” 40Then he took his staff in his hand, and chose five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in his shepherd’s bag or wallet; his sling was in his hand, and he drew near to the Philistine. 41And the Philistine came on and drew near to David, with his shield-bearer in front of him. 42And when the Philistine looked, and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, ruddy and comely in appearance. 43And the Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. 44The Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and to the beasts of the field.” 45Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword and with a spear and with a javelin; but I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you down, and cut off your head; and I will give the dead bodies of the host of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, 47and that all this assembly may know that the LORD saves not with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD’S and he will give you into our hand.” 48When the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. 49And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone, and slung it, and struck the Philistine on his forehead; the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground. 50So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him; there was no sword in the hand of David. 51Then David ran and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath, and killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
Adrian Guerrero, general director of public affairs, sent a letter to Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gasc?n demanding his office stop the “spiraling crisis of organized and opportunistic criminal rail theft.”
Shockingly, Guerrero revealed that “over 90 containers are compromised per day.”
“Since December 2020, UP has experienced an over 160% increase in criminal rail theft in Los Angeles County. In several months during that period, the increase from the previous year surpassed 200%. In October 2021 alone, the increase was 356% over compared to October 2020,” Guerrero explained. “Not only do these dramatic increases represent retail product thefts – they include increased assaults and armed robberies of UP employees performing their duties moving trains.”
However, the actual crimes are not the only issue. Guerrero explained that far-left criminal justice policies have exacerbated the problem and emboldened criminals.Criminals are caught and arrested, turned over to local authorities for booking, arraigned before the local courts, charges are reduced to a misdemeanor or petty offense, and the criminal is released after paying a nominal fine.These individuals are generally caught and released back onto the streets in less than twenty-four hours. Even with all the arrests made, the no-cash bail policy and extended timeframe for suspects to appear in court is causing re-victimization to UP by these same criminals. In fact, criminals boast to our officers that charges will be pled down to simple trespassing – which bears no serious consequence. Without any judicial deterrence or consequence, it is no surprise that over the past year UP has witnessed the significant increase in criminal rail theft described above.
According to Guerrero, UPS and FedEx, which utilize Union Pacific’s rail services, are seeking to divert their business away from Los Angeles County — and Union Pacific may join them.
“Like our customers, UP is now contemplating serious changes to our operating plans to avoid Los Angeles County,” Guerrero wrote, adding that such a “drastic change” would significantly impact the national supply chain.
Guerrero went on to say that Union Pacific understands “the well-intended social justice goals” of Gasc?n, but demanded he “hold these criminals accountable.”
We’ll see if that does any good.
No “insider” news on Russia, Ukraine and Kazakstan, but that situation doesn’t look good.
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the world:
This is genius, In France many restaurants, bars, change their status to PRIVATE CLUB. They then don't have to ask customer for a Covid slave passport. New customers become "members" in less <1minute and for free. Thus, the restaurant is no longer "public", but private. Welcome
Memeville has been most generous in the past few days. Here are some highlights.

Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.
And now for some mood music:
Your weekly reminder to take the pledge:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
23One sabbath he was going through the grainfields; and as they made their way his disciples began to pluck heads of grain. 24And the Pharisees said to him, “Look, why are they doing what is not lawful on the sabbath?” 25And he said to them, “Have you never read what David did, when he was in need and was hungry, he and those who were with him: 26how he entered the house of God, when Abi’athar was high priest, and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those who were with him?” 27And he said to them, “The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath; 28so the Son of man is lord even of the sabbath.”
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Christmas Spirit
Christmas spirit continues, including for those Orthodox brothers and sisters who just finished their Christmas Day a week ago, on January 7, 2022. Can we drag it out until the end of January?
LET’S TRY!!!
And now, the rules of the pub.
HOUSE RULES
God bless us, every one! Tiny Tim had such a beautiful soul. He hadn’t a mean bone in his body…unlike most of us. But in keeping with Christmas, we promise to honor Wolf’s rules and keep Scrooge at bay. The Utree is where the Ghost of Christmas Present will conduct you should you need to rattle some chains. Another option, should all hell break loose is here.

Clot Shot Self-Deception as Part of Mass Formation Psychosis
I don’t remember where the tab URL below came from – hat tip to whoever found it – but it is critical to note how EVERYBODY CONCERNED is OK with blaming this obvious clot-shot death on “COVID-19”.
“The 57-year-old was admitted to St. Thomas Midtown in Nashville a short time after he received his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine.
‘Sometime after his first vaccine and he somewhat brushed it off, usually when he gets sick he gets better the next day and then he was hospitalized on December 7th,’ Alexis said.
Following a 12-day stint in the hospital, Dimitri passed away on December 20 from complications.”
“He was a very docile, a person with minimal words, but every time he spoke, they were very impactful words.”
That’s how 19-year-old Alexis Ndina is remembering her father, who said he passed away from COVID-19 just days before Christmas.
Dr. Dimitri Ndina was a loving father, husband, grandfather and a pharmaceutical doctor at Tennessee Oncology.
The 57-year-old was admitted to St. Thomas Midtown in Nashville a short time after he received his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine.
“Sometime after his first vaccine and he somewhat brushed it off, usually when he gets sick he gets better the next day and then he was hospitalized on December 7th,” Alexis said.
Following a 12-day stint in the hospital, Dimitri passed away on December 20 from complications.
“They noted that he started to clot in his lower region so from his legs and started to work up,” Alexis explained.
His family is in disbelief, saying he was such a healthy man.
Alexis recalled the last words she said to her dad.
“I told him I loved him. He was a person who cared about how he looked so I kept telling him he was a very handsome man and all that,” Alexis said.
Following in her father’s footsteps, Alexis also wants to be a doctor just like him.
“He’s taught me everything I know, everything in my life that has been from him has impacted me, and I am just going to continue to make him proud,” Alexis said.
She also shared a message for the community she believes her dad would want everyone to hear.
“To continue his legacy I want everyone to stay proactive in being healthy because that’s what he would have wanted.”
WOLF again.
It is absolutely OBVIOUS to anybody who has followed the “clot shot”, that this man suffered stereotypical vaccine-induced clotting which is absolutely attributable of the vaccines, which knowingly, wrongly, inject a FACTORY for the spike protein into people’s bloodstreams.
And yet, as we might expect, the Fake News Media attributes it to COVID-19 – and NOT the vaccine.
It may be that some of the family, friends, and medical folks realize they are “sneaking out” some “clot-shot truth” past the media, under an accepted narrative banner of COVID-19.
Indeed, even the reporter may admit to self that “it’s not COVID – it’s the vaccine.” And yet – everybody plays the game, and pretends that it’s COVID.
To me, this is a classic symptom and effect of the MASS FORMATION PSYCHOSIS.
Another great example of this was the CNA who posted video in January 2021, at the beginning of the vaccine roll-out, about the phony “super-spreader” excuse that was used to cover up Pfizer vaccine deaths in nursing homes. He could not go along with it.
As a CHRISTIAN (listen to him), he could NOT be part of the mass formation psychosis which required him to state what he did not truly believe.
If you go to that article, there is a HUGE LIST of nursing homes that had massive deaths from “COVID-19” when they started vaccinating. YOU DECIDE. Maybe use Occam’s Razor while you’re at it.
29 elderly people died in Norway shortly after receiving Pfizer’s vaccination.
13 deaths among 40 residents following vaccination at one nursing home in Germany were dismissed as “tragic coincidence.”
10 deaths in a German palliative care patients within hours to four days of COVID-19 vaccination were deemed a “coincidence.”
22 of 72 residents of a nursing home in Basingstoke, England have died following vaccination.
24 seniors at a nursing home in Syracuse, NY were reported to have died from COVID-19 as of January 9, 2021 despite having been vaccinated beginning December 22, 2020.
10 cases of COVID-19 were reported on January 28 among seniors who had received both doses of Pfizer’s vaccine at one care home in Stockholm Sweden. The residents were vaccinated on December 27 and again on January 19.
The COVID-19 death toll in the small British enclave of Gibraltar numbered 16 before it launched its Pfizer vaccination campaign on January 10, 2021 and then shot up to 53 deaths 10 days later and to 70 seven days after that. According to a Reuters report, the Gibraltar Health Authority declared there was “no evidence at all of any causal link” between 6 of the deaths that were investigated and the Pfizer’s vaccine, despite the individuals having tested negative for Covid-19 before vaccination, but positive “in the days immediately after.”
4,500 COVID-19 cases in Israel occurred in patients after they had received one dose of Pfizer’s vaccine and 375 of those vaccinated patients required hospitalization, Israeli news media reported on January 12.
Seven adults living in a care home in Saskatoon tested positive for coronavirus a week after residents were vaccinated at the Sherbrooke Community Centre, the CBC reported. There were no positive cases at the time of vaccination.
Seven residents at a Montreal long-term care facility tested positive for Covid-19 within 28 days of being vaccinated with Pfizer’s vaccine, prompting the province of Quebec to delay the second Pfizer dose.
Abercorn Care Home in Scotland, which began COVID-19 vaccinations on December 14, 2020 was home to an outbreak of the virus by January 10 and the National Health Service for the region refused to comment on whether vaccinated residents were ill. A care home staff group founder told the Scottish Daily Record : “We have had members of our group whose parents have had the vaccine and then two weeks later have tested positive for coronavirus.”
All of the residents at a home in Inverness, Scotland were vaccinated against COVID-19 early in January, but 17 became infected with the virus after the first dose.
This is the OPPOSITE of what happened in the two Spanish nursing homes that saved everybody with antihistamines.
The MASS FORMATION PSYCHOSIS creates SELF-DECEPTION, both at the INDIVIDUAL and GROUP level.
Even more shocking, entire nations can begin to self-deceive.
People – SLAP yourselves. Something is very wrong here. DO NOT SELF-DECEIVE.
WHY people are taking these vaccines is beyond me.
Don’t do it. Just DON’T.
And with a TOAST to both Grandmaintexas (regular bartender) AND Aubergine (relentless foe of the clot shot)…..
And Now Our Feature Presentation
Trusting the Plan by Trusting the Resolution of Conflict as Part of Creation
As DePat, Sadie, and I have all pointed out recently, this site IS most definitely under spiritual attack.
However, I do NOT view that as “bad news”, because in my opinion, it means that (1) we actually may be attaining a state of notice BY annoyance OF the other side, and (2) we have to be at least somewhat OVER THE TARGET.
Now, as Duchess reminds us almost every day, we need SPIRITUAL ARMOR.
Well, I myself have taken to “upping” mine quite often, reading her post and seeing where I need an extra layer or two, and it’s paying off. Indeed, for some reason, after Delta, I have spiritual Kevlar to spare.
HOWEVER, not everybody here is so lucky. Thus, I DO REALIZE that I may be dragging many of us toward some battles that people just don’t want to fight any more. I mean, is anybody ELSE tired of COVID?
Yes, I’m tired of it, too – but there is a kind of temptation, because we are winning so BIG on the Branch Covidians now, I just can’t get up every day and not want to SCORE SOME MORE.
AND YET……
I can tell that people are TIRED and WORN OUT and I understand. People need R&R.
And you will GET R&R.
What I cannot promise you is that you will get ENOUGH of your R&R *HERE*.
So if people need to get away from here, I understand. It’s OK. In fact, it’s necessary.
But I promise you – when you come BACK here, there will be – just as Trump promised – WINNING.
Right now, if you can, SAVOR some of that winning, because you’ve fought long and hard for it.
I mean, where we were ON POINT if not the BLEEDING EDGE with much “conspiracy” stuff, the big names are now leaping over us to get to the front lines.
AND I LOVE IT!!!
A new song on the jukebox!
https://youtu.be/NNFK4i408dQ
SO – all that is the context of what I want to say.
A few days ago, I had a very interesting dream, which was induced in part by going to bed thinking about all of the “big questions” we are facing now.
We are being “shown” so much – and yet – well – it SEEMS like nobody is DOING anything about it.
WELL – not much that we can SEE. Or maybe just not much that we can PROVE. Or maybe….. well…..
…..maybe things really ARE happening on our side, too.
However, it’s MURKY. And we have to see CLEARLY to see what’s coming.
We have different views of things, and we COULD just “not talk about those critical things”, but that will NOT enable us to see things.
We need the STEREO VISION and PERSPECTIVE which can only come from DIFFERENT VIEWPOINTS SIMULTANEOUSLY.
I didn’t fully realize the NECESSITY of this, until FG&C posed a question, albeit not in question form.
“Frankly, I am both amazed by Wolf’s toleration of it as well as greatly perplexed by that toleration.”
I mean – I am deeply ANNOYED by some of us (and that includes ME on occasion) chiding the military for their seeming acceptance of “Traitor Joe” wrecking this country.
And yet, I think it is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to constantly consider the two alternatives, which I believe are BOTH swirling in the Pentagon / Pentagram.
A. They (meaning us) have to be shown the sick reality of the global plots of socialism.
B. They (meaning us) have to be acclimated to the reality of globally agreed socialism.
So which is it? After January 6, and how well that trap was laid out against PATRIOTS, I cannot dismiss the idea that the PENTAGON is involved in A, B, or (AND logic) BOTH.
And what if BOTH is in fact the answer?
That’s where things get REALLY mind-blowing.
BUT FIRST…..
Here is how I responded to FG&C.
This is one of those things where I’m trying to solve a problem and operating on my gut feeling of where the solution lies. It’s much bigger than this blog, frankly. Much bigger than all of us. Much bigger than MAGA, or America, or this world.
I had to sleep on it – to ponder it – and I got my answer, but it’s so big and so general and so difficult to describe in words that make sense to EITHER anybody OR everybody, that I KNOW I’m not quite ready to talk about it.
There are many components – many pieces – that matter – and we have bits of them assembled here, one might say.
It’s all starting to become clear to me BECAUSE those components are here and becoming visible. If we want to solve this stuff, we are FORCED to confront this stuff. It’s part of reclaiming some things that were LOST in order to fulfill both OLD purposes and NEW purposes.
PC has BLINDED US to proper solutions. We have to allow questions that we don’t want to see answers that we do want, which may even disprove and make irrelevant those questions we don’t want, but they do it in a productive way, with understanding that helps us move “forward” as part of creation.
All of which is to say, in a tiny thread through the object, that progressives burning books and toppling statues is ultimately contradictory, because they destroy the very knowledge that enables proper progress. And that goes back to – the necessary and non-erroneous creation of error itself as part of creation, which is good a priori.
For the moment, though, we will have to put up with questions we don’t want, bad answers to those questions until we have better ones, and uncomfortable alternatives, largely created as false dichotomies, which often obscure, but visualized and deciphered can lead to true answers.
SIGH. Yet I have FAITH, because I SEE where this is going, and God willing, I will see it more, and better, and clearer in days to come.
So what has happened since then?
What I’m seeing, more clearly now, is still hard to describe, but it does have components that we all understand. Many of them are things which have to be CONSERVED. Things that go back to….
our youths
the last century
the Civil War
the Founders
the Enlightenment
the Middle Ages
Christ
the Prophets
Moses
Abraham
the beginnings of civilization
early Man
Creation
Obvious then, why the enemy cannot STAND things in the past, and makes us try to destroy them.
The mistakes which are continuously being made by progressives and (COUGH) certain others, because those mistakes have to be made, are in fact things that become our DUTY to oppose – and thus to quench and temper into something better.
Technology and “progress” don’t SOLVE our problems – they just REPLACE our problems with NEW ONES.
BUT THAT IS PART OF THE DESIGN.
You see – at the same time – technology and progress DO fulfill necessary aspects of the CREATION that God both SEES as good and PROCLAIMS as good. They are, IMO, utilities upon which the building of God’s kingdom “on Earth as it is in Heaven” becomes POSSIBLE.
AND YET – the physical – the WORLD – remains ONLY THAT, and NOT part of the Kingdom per se.
“For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.”
If I can offer you one thing most of all, it is a certain TEMPERING of the SHIELD OF FAITH…..
…….which comes from TRUSTING GOD’S DESIGN……
…..but not just in Heaven, and not just on Earth, but right here, right now, in America, and in your state, and in your town, and in your home, reading these words.
One might say, we need to “Trust the Plan”, even when it seems to be helping our enemies – or even worse – when it IS – as far as we can see – actually helping our enemies.
In my opinion, the CONFLICT that we see, and that we are a part of, and that we must allow to come to us, here on this site, is part of the plan that we are supposed to trust.
And I’m OK with that. I hope that you will be, too. If conflict comes to us, from within or without, while we are doing our best to stand up for God, then we should not fear it – we should welcome it.
Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.”
Okay, now that we have that out of the way, and the CDC is dropping truthbombs in the whole COVID thing, we’re getting somewhere.
Good news, doctors! All of that natural immunity stuff that we studied in medical school wasn't fantasy after all. It still works. I was wondering why I didn't get the chicken pox every year since childhood. Now I understand why…again.
Alright, what else do I have saved up after being out half the day on Tuesday.

The nasal pharynx? Does Little Tony think we don’t know what that is? Opera singers learn early on to open it to produce clear tones. Opening it is real easy. All you gotta do is flare your nostrils, lifting the cartilage in the bridge of the nose, and feel the soft palate in the back of the mouth lift, and…probably TMI for those who don’t do this for a living. It does take practice.

IDK, the people – including physicians – seem to be waking up.
Think of the CDC as an 80 year old monopoly that never was exposed to much scrutiny or transparency, which is immune to criminal prosecutions and has a nepotistic relationship with drug companies.
Do you seriously think they'd likely be honest and not corrupt?

And, of course, the obligatory George Carlin:
Per the Boss:
In honor of Carol, my mother’s friend who did what she had to do to protect herself and her children when it was simply not done the way she did it. May she rest in peace.
And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:
Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.
Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone
Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.
Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.
Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out, as well as the newest rescue venue.
Auntie DePat’s requests:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.
The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.
Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.
One other vital note:
Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.
Today’s readings come not from the regular Mass readings, but from those of today’s Saint, St. Bernard of Corleone.
EZEKIEL 33:12-16
12And you, son of man, say to your people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him when he transgresses; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall by it when he turns from his wickedness; and the righteous shall not be able to live by his righteousness when he sins. 13Though I say to the righteous that he shall surely live, yet if he trusts in his righteousness and commits iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered; but in the iniquity that he has committed he shall die. 14Again, though I say to the wicked, `You shall surely die,’ yet if he turns from his sin and does what is lawful and right, 15if the wicked restores the pledge, gives back what he has taken by robbery, and walks in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. 16None of the sins that he has committed shall be remembered against him; he has done what is lawful and right, he shall surely live.
PSALMS 51:8-12, 17, 19
6Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward being; therefore teach me wisdom in my secret heart. 7Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8Fill me with joy and gladness; let the bones which thou hast broken rejoice. 9Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. 10Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me. 15O Lord, open thou my lips, and my mouth shall show forth thy praise. 17The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
LUKE 15:3-7
3So he told them this parable: 4“What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? 5And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, `Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.’ 7Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.
“Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace. Peace will be the last word of history” – St. Pope John Paul II
Holiness is this profound contact with God, becoming a friend of God: it is letting the Other work, the Only One who can really make the world both good and happy. — Benedict XVI
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.
And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
Okay, this was not exactly funny, but I was on the treadmill thinking, It couldn’t happen to more deserving people.

Jan. 8 (UPI) — Authorities have arrested the recently ousted head of Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, Karim Massimov, on suspicion of treason amid unrest after spike in gas prices.
The intelligence agency, a successor to the Soviet Committee for State Security, or KGB, said in a statement Saturday obtained by The New York Times that Massimov was arrested on Thursday, a day after Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev removed him from the NSC chairman post.
Former Kazakhstan intelligence chief Karim Massimov, whom Hunter Biden once described as his “close friend” and who once posed for a photo with Biden and his father, President Joe Biden, was arrested by Kazakh authorities last week on allegedsuspicion of high treason.

Is this really Putin putting the Soviet Union back together, or is he cleaning up his neighborhood.
An answer may well be forthcoming.
In the meantime, the “trash reading hour for total relaxation on Sunday” saw your darling DePat starting one of Geoff Shepard’s books on Richard Nixon and Watergate. Then this popped up from a really famous interview, actually.
For some reason, there is a wholesale rehabilitation of President Richard Nixon’s reputation underway from a variety of angles. At some point in the future, I will share what I read from Geoff Shepard, but the truth of the matter really looks like Nixon was set up by the alphabet soup agencies to take the fall for something neither he nor the people he brought with him to Washington knew anything about.
If everything we know is a lie, why would that not include Watergate?
Just spitballin’ here.
Oh, yeah, this was good.
I've said it once, and I'll say it again.
If the Far Left truly cared about lowering COVID numbers, they'd shut down the border.
Instead, they'd rather make you wear a mask that doesn't work and mandate vaccines that don't stop COVID from spreading.
I’d throw in a few Rockefellers and Rothschilds also.
Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.
And now for some mood music:
Seriously, how often is a winds trio all three cork, single reed and double reed, and nothing else? Really cool.
Your weekly reminder to take the pledge:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
9After they had eaten and drunk in Shiloh, Hannah rose. Now Eli the priest was sitting on the seat beside the doorpost of the temple of the LORD. 10She was deeply distressed and prayed to the LORD, and wept bitterly. 11And she vowed a vow and said, “O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thy maidservant, and remember me, and not forget thy maidservant, but wilt give to thy maidservant a son, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall touch his head.” 12As she continued praying before the LORD, Eli observed her mouth. 13Hannah was speaking in her heart; only her lips moved, and her voice was not heard; therefore Eli took her to be a drunken woman. 14And Eli said to her, “How long will you be drunken? Put away your wine from you.” 15But Hannah answered, “No, my lord, I am a woman sorely troubled; I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I have been pouring out my soul before the LORD. 16Do not regard your maidservant as a base woman, for all along I have been speaking out of my great anxiety and vexation.” 17Then Eli answered, “Go in peace, and the God of Israel grant your petition which you have made to him.” 18And she said, “Let your maidservant find favor in your eyes.” Then the woman went her way and ate, and her countenance was no longer sad. 19They rose early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD; then they went back to their house at Ramah. And Elka’nah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her; 20and in due time Hannah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Samuel, for she said, “I have asked him of the LORD.”
1 SAMUEL 2:1, 4-8
1Hannah also prayed and said, “My heart exults in the LORD; my strength is exalted in the LORD. My mouth derides my enemies, because I rejoice in thy salvation. 4The bows of the mighty are broken, but the feeble gird on strength. 5Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread, but those who were hungry have ceased to hunger. The barren has borne seven, but she who has many children is forlorn. 6The LORD kills and brings to life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up. 7The LORD makes poor and makes rich; he brings low, he also exalts. 8He raises up the poor from the dust; he lifts the needy from the ash heap, to make them sit with princes and inherit a seat of honor. For the pillars of the earth are the LORD’S, and on them he has set the world.
MARK 1:21-28
21And they went into Caper’na-um; and immediately on the sabbath he entered the synagogue and taught. 22And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes. 23And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; 24and he cried out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God.” 25But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” 26And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him. 27And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching! With authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” 28And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

This one is a year old, but I was DYING watching it. I see Tesla cars every day, and, yeah, owners of Tesla and Prius products really do think this way. I worked for one such person.
Yeah, we still have staffing problems, but who doesn’t under China Joe?
While off to a rocky start, we are staying open as many days of the week as possible, just like some of the small businesses that I patronize.
Keep up that LOCAL PRESSURE on the Biden cabal by going to school board meetings and supporting TRUE non-monopoly capitalism – it SKEERS Kapo and Little Red Jen somethin’ FIERCE.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! To the White House press– thank you for challenging us, for questioning and for holding us accountable as we all work to keep the American people informed.

Likewise, patronize those SMALL BLOGS that provide new viewpoints and ideas!
We Serve Whiskey And Guns To Indians Here!
Yup! FREEDOM is GOOD TROUBLE, and we’re in favor of it, for everybody, much to the consternation of our local maskies and vaxxies.
I had the special pleasure of being “refused service” by a maskie recently – he simply walked away from the cash register and went into the back. Some of it was due to race. Having been “not served” because of race before, I can spot that fairly easily, and this person was not exactly “hard to read”.
Three other staffers (all forced to wear masks, sadly) came to my assistance and took my order.
I maintained a pleasant demeanor, as part of one of several psychological warfare tactics that I have adopted recently, in fighting against the VAXZIS and MASKZIS.

So what’s on the ODD BAR’S CRAZY MENU this week?
We’ve served alcohols our first week, including menthol, ivermectin, and hydroxychloroquine.
Next, we served amines , including second generation antihistamines.
Today, we’ll toast each other with an element that we’ll borrow from Steve…..
…..and some very special natural alcohols and derivatives, including among the 4 of them, 3 terpenoids, 2 phenols, 1 ester, and 1 ether.
More on these wonderful “liqueurs” later!

There’s still time to spread omicron! GET BUSY!!!
While we do have some members out with Omicron now, including Brave and Free, the real question is whether we’re going to see a big peak in March and April, like we did in 2020.
And if you’re gonna get sick, you might at least consider having some willing cohort, looking for that natural immunity, to get sick with you!
Ah, thanks to SMILEY for reminding me of the goofy fun of these wonderful but stupid GIFs called “Blingees”!
And now, the rules of the pub.
HOUSE RULES
God bless us, every one! Tiny Tim had such a beautiful soul. He hadn’t a mean bone in his body…unlike most of us. But in keeping with Christmas, we promise to honor Wolf’s rules and keep Scrooge at bay. The Utree is where the Ghost of Christmas Present will conduct you should you need to rattle some chains. Another option, should all hell break loose is here.
Now, back to business.
AMEN!

As one of the early “discoverers” of The Ethical Skeptic on Twitter, I was happy that I was able to get a few people interested in his precise and well-considered thoughts on things – especially regarding the phony scamdemic. TES was always utterly perturbed by the bad science of the “pandemic”, and worked on a daily basis to “correct the fact checkers” – which was all of hilarious, sad, and joyful.
After I was kicked off Twitter, I rarely saw him, due to my own laziness, really, but in 2021, some GREAT links to The Ethical Skeptic’s work popped up here. THANK YOU, to all who follow him and keep us informed.
This one got us all thinking about “coof kits”, and GA/FL suggested some of us putting up our own versions. I initially thought that this might not be a good idea, because people’s needs and medical situations really VARY – one of the main reasons that “practicing medicine without a license” is actually a bad idea in normal times. I thought it better to have a broader discussion.
However, I just realized that I did put up a kind of “minimal” kit last week, and it’s worth looking at it.
This kit was designed for people who DON’T have a smart plan already figured out, and don’t want to investigate “hard to find” things like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.
Here is what I had, followed by my earlier reasoning. The main change is adding Vitamin C, as discussed below.
Wolf’s COVID Care Package
Thermometer (thermal digital is easiest)
Antigen test kit(s) (yeah, good luck finding one, although they are coming back after New Years)
Antihistamine of your choice (Claritin, Zyrtec, and Allegra are the easiest – 1-2 a day)
Aspirin (regular, or low-dose if your stomach doesn’t like it – 1 a day)
Listerine or Betadine mouthwash/gargle for mouth and throat
Vitamins C and D, Zinc, Calcium, Magnesium, Multivitamin including Selenium.
Quercetin (including natural sources) or Green Tea
Saline or other nasal spray, rinse, or wash of your choice
The thermometer tells you when to use your precious test kit – when you suddenly have a fever and a sore or tingly throat.
The test kit gets you a positive diagnosis that opens doors for things like antibodies, or an official test.
A positive test means you can BEGIN TREATMENT at THERAPEUTIC DOSES.
The antihistamine insures that YOU WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY NOT DIE, because it stops the second, allergic, inflammatory stage of COVID in its tracks.
The aspirin makes doubly sure you won’t get clots, but be careful – don’t take it if you’ve had trouble with aspirin. Talk to your doctor if unsure.
The gargles (Listerine or Betadine) massively reduce viral load and speed time to recovery.
The saline and nasal washes lower viral load, and maintain nasal breathing.
The quercetin and green tea help zinc’s antiviral action by increasing cellular zinc levels.
The vitamins and mineral supplements keep you at antiviral levels of these things. In particular, zinc and vitamin D3 need to be at non-deficient levels.
Please consult authoritative sources from TRUE medical doctors like the ones at https://flccc.net.
Cthulhu noted that I hadn’t mentioned Vitamin C – I have now added that, because it’s likely to help and can’t hurt (“First, do no harm”) and also follows the McCullough Principle (“Signals of Benefit, Acceptable Safety”). I don’t think it’s nearly as important as the antihistamine and “clot-blocker”, but I do have to admit that Vitamin C was certainly far better than nothing when I survived Wuhan with only mild lung damage.
What I’m going to do now is to encourage all of YOU to talk about your “war chests” and “coof kits”, and explain your reasonings about things.
This will help people who are deciding what THEY might want to add to their kits – OR REMOVE, if there is something better for their particular situation.
Remember – everybody has their own unique medical needs.
I will put my thoughts in the comments, just like everybody else.
NOW – about those natural “essential oils” in Listerine.
Let’s look at them.
Menthol
Thymol
Eucalyptol (2 views)
Methyl salicylate
These are all natural substances of roughly the same molecular size and composition (mostly carbon and hydrogen with 1-3 oxygen atoms), all of them being either pungent oily liquids or smelly, vaporous crystalline solids.
There are some relations between these things.
Thymol is basically menthol where the 6-membered ring has been made benzenoid – meaning like benzene – with 3 double bonds.
Notice that methyl salicylate is also benzenoid. Methyl salicylate is related to aspirin, and has similar activities. Don’t drink Listerine, even though the amounts are (believe it or not) rather small.
Eucalyptol is also structurally related to menthol, although it’s harder to see. Try to see it.
All of these natural substances, when isolated from their sources, were very early pharmaceuticals. They ALL have pharmacological activities, which many would regard as “primitive” by today’s standards, and yet, gargling Listerine is PROVEN to be extremely effective in reducing viral load of COVID-19 variants – about 80% as effective as iodine solutions.
Why might this be? Here is just ONE small line of immunological evidence.
To be honest, we’re a bit late to the game here. Native Australians from the first wave of immigration, roughly 65,000 years ago, discovered the utility of eucalyptol by their own investigations.
There is a great picture of what is essentially a native doctor’s medical bag in the second link. When it freaks you out a bit, let it. This is a way of getting you to appreciate human intelligence outside your modern experience.
Lastly – IODINE.
I have not tried this, and I am not sure I would like it, but it’s a viable option, IMO. I actually like Listerine, and it worked for me on delta, so I’m happy with that. I did NOT try Listerine in the nasal cavity. Not sure that I’d like that. I stuck to saline.
I did find a paper that showed Listerine to be roughly 80% as effective as povidone-iodine.
Here is link to a review which states something similar, and a summary of the review.
A review of literature was conducted regarding the use of commercially available antiseptics and SARS-CoV-2.
Results
Povidone-iodine (betadine), ethanol and essential oils (Listerine) and a combination of xylitol and iota-carrageenan (purified from red marine algae) were shown to reduce viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro by 3–4 log10 in 30 s.
Chlorhexidine, a widely used oral rinse, does not act as quickly in reducing viral load in 30 s as povidone-iodineI, but binds to cell proteins, extending protection.
Hydrogen peroxide is not as effective as other oral rinses in vitro and cell toxicity is a concern.
Hypertonic saline is not directly virucidal, but halts replication by increasing hypochlorous acid inside the cell.
Conclusion
Several commonly used nasal antiseptics and gargles have shown efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro and clinical trials are currently underway to study their impact on disease course and transmission.
Future perspective
These commercially available products should be further evaluated due to their potential ability to reduce the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and other viruses that are yet to emerge.
You can also make your own povidone-iodine gargles and nasal rinses – Dr. McCullough has retweeted a nice recipe for this. Click through to Twitter for more information.
This is another GREAT article, talking about one of my FAVORITE complaints about modern science, which has resulted from a really SICK and UNHEALTHY compartmentalization, as well as insulation of scientists from internal criticism (lack of “herd review”). This condition has allowed all sorts of pathological science to gain ascendancy without check, balance, or proper community criticism.
For example, CLIMATE CHANGE gets more input from FINANCIERS than it does from the many scientists like me who think we are acting irrationally and presumptuously on ERRORS. These errors have been induced by the WRONG forces – beneficiaries not committed to truth – within a small pathologically influenced community – much like what’s going on with improperly influenced government science and the “clot shot”.
This piece by The Ethical Skeptic contains a graphic using a BULLSEYE which you really need to see. It makes a very important point about science – which I can apply DIRECTLY to Anthony Fauci.
Fauci’s extreme focus on antibodies to the spike protein as a nearly sole measure of “success” of the “clot shot”, is a perfect example of what TES is talking about.
I have referred to Fauci’s over-focus as “antibody hypnosis”. In fact, I see this kind of obsession and compulsion repeatedly throughout his career, and would wager that:
it’s why he always “wins” against the Judy Mikovitses and the Kary Mullises
it’s why he’s so highly paid
it’s why he’s tied to so many “grim reaper” experiments
it’s why corrupt industry loves him, and is in bed with him
TES makes a general point about the kinds of information which actually provide STRONGER PROOF – and this set includes something I love – INDEPENDENT CONFIRMATION BY ALTERNATE LINES OF REASONING – not just “duplication of results” and “confirmation of results” – which are both sadly lacking as well, but not nearly as important.
I have powerful, direct experiences in science with the need for RESOLVED DIVERSE INPUTS and AVOIDANCE OF HYPNOTIC REASONING as safeguards against pathological science.
However, THEY (and I mean “they”) are using various forms of hypnosis, including MASS, COMMUNITY, PEER, and INDIVIDUAL to advance science in ways that THEY want.
Human science is far more controlled than we either admit or understand.
Anyway, back to the article.
There is a quote from Elon Musk therein which is really worth your while, and which TES puts in the context of what he is talking about.
Bluntly, it feels wonderful to know that SOMEBODY GETS IT.
What Musk is talking about here is basically the “bullseye” metaphor that TES uses. And THAT is related to the following item.
While Fauci is very committed to the LEVELS of his antibodies, he has not properly processed feedback that would indicate he’s OPTIMIZING THE WRONG THING.
Here is a link to Steve Kirsch’s interpretation of Sucharit Bhakdi’s and Arne Burkhardt’s analysis of people who died after vaccination, showing that these deaths were ALMOST ALL related to the “clot shot”.
Kirsch REALLY explains this well. Malone takes note of this, too.
IMO, it would appear that Fauci is optimizing the WRONG ANTIBODIES in the WRONG WAY, because the vaccines are CREATING the WRONG ANTIBODIES in the WRONG PLACES.
Please read Kirsch’s article and then the Bhakdi-Burkhardt paper to understand this.
Now, Fauci may be optimizing the wrong antibodies in the wrong places for a variety of reasons. Those exact reasons are not nearly as important as the fact that they are simply WRONG.
I believe Bhakdi, Burkhardt, and Kirsch – this is a risky vaccine, and now we begin to understand WHY.
Based on this knowledge, I personally will not be taking these vaccines.
In my opinion, these results CLEARLY show that vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 should not be effected by IM injections of a full SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, and even more emphatically so, NOT by genetic vaccines delivered by IM injections. In my very early opinion, this is going to be a CLASSIC case for using RBD antigen (protein) and/or nasal delivery as a concession to the virus – with nasal delivery being used as a SAFETY feature and NOT merely a convenience.
To have SAFER vaccines for DISCRIMINATING SHOPPERS like me, we’re going to have to compromise with the virus. That’s just the way it is.
There may be SOME who thought that we could arrive at a compromise that would reduce human populations, but frankly I don’t like that deal.
In my opinion, ANYBODY with vascular, cardiac, clotting, or other issues like WANTING TO HAVE KIDS SOMEDAY, or NOT RISKING CANCER, should absolutely avoid the current clot shots.
In my opinion, the clot shot is stupidity advanced by greedy people who are controlled and manipulated by really evil people. In other words, it’s not stupid, greedy, or evil – it’s ALL OF THE ABOVE.
The DISEASE is no picnic, and I can see some people making the risk-benefit calculation in favor of the vaccine – particularly newer RBD antigen vaccines like Corbevax (Hotez/Baylor/India/open-source). But if people are dying in 5 years from experimental mRNA vaccines with the full spike protein – well, that is exactly like the RISK that one takes with SMOKING SOMETHING YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND.
Seriously, most Americans would refuse to take a novel “legal” or illegal designer drug, given stories like the “bath salts” and “Parkinson’s heroin” experiences which shocked the public in horror headlines.

This is what I really wanted to show you, right here.
The Ethical Skeptic, or TES, or “ThEthSkep“, as I sometimes call him, has proven to my satisfaction that CCP lied even MORE than we previously thought possible.
Is this hard to believe? That we got CHUMPED by CHINA yet again?
Yeah. Getting chumped by China YET AGAIN is a thing.
I am tempted to try to construct an “elevator pitch” of ThEthSkep’s argument, and have even asked him (in a moderated comment) if he could provide such a short explanation that I could pitch to others.
If he DOES provide one, I will do an entire post on it.
For the moment, I will just give you my “two paragraph description” of his very long and elegant post, which post I can guarantee most here will have trouble following.
TES argues that setting an earlier date for the actual initial Chinese release of an ancestral pathogen to current SARS-CoV-2, provides a far better explanation of the facts at hand, as well as some facts which he generated through analysis of the genetics of SARS-CoV-2 variants, than does the “standard model” of a late 2019 release, whether that late release is taken from the early Chinese LIES about a zoonotic outbreak in December 2019, or from the October 2019 Wuhan lab activities which have always struck me as potential disinformation.
In particular, an early 2018 release of a less pathogenic ancestor explains the omicron variant’s surprisingly early 2020 appearance and low pathogenicity so well, and China’s population resistance to the more pathogenic Wuhan variant, whether that was a descendant or (my thinking) a new release, that IMO it is the duty of the “standard model” to explain all of the facts better than the TES theory.
Now, like I said, this post by TES is not an easy read, even for those with some knowledge of the field, and even for those experienced in reading the scientific literature. He moves at “review speed” through a lot of reasoning and even his own work, which is not all shown, but which is all fully described and referenced.
I am actually WAITING for my first reading to fully sink in, but I can tell you this. As soon as I “freed myself” from the necessity of a late 2019 release, everything “coof” just started falling into place.
This is one of those things that starts generating RESETS in my mind, on everything I had thought before. Once you see what TES is getting at, it’s almost impossible to unsee it.
AND I CAN GO FURTHER.
I talk to a LOT of people, and listen carefully to their thinking about COVID. One of my sources is somebody who has a lot of contacts in Europe and Asia, especially India, due to working for an international firm.
That person strongly believes, based on illnesses within the corporation as well as associated entities, that something like COVID-19 was already circulating worldwide during ALL of 2019.
I had set this aside, unable to fit it into everything else I knew. NOW, however, it makes easy sense. In fact, the details which I don’t want to give, fit his model of spread EXACTLY.
If TES is correct, and I believe he is, then WE WERE DEALING WITH VARIANTS EVEN BEFORE THE CDC BEGAN TALKING ABOUT VARIANTS. In fact, they never told us that THE ORIGINAL WAS LIKELY JUST A VARIANT OF SOME PRIOR VARIANT.
And THIS explains much better why Fauci, Baric, Dazsak, and all the others were ready to cover up – because a virus related to their research had already gotten out in 2018. Going along with the Chinese story was a RELIEF to them – and they grabbed on tightly.
In other words, a conspiracy of aligning interests, not something discussed on paper or by phone. It’s a brilliant Chinese move, actually. Proffer a lie and see if our own scientists will join them in it.
The USEFUL IDIOT American media? NO PROBLEM.
And not just THAT stuff, but now we have much more evidence that these bugs could have been “in the wild” EVERYWHERE – including possibly just outside the Baric lab, near where Gail Combs picked up a “coofy” bug much earlier than would have been possible with a late 2019 release. (I will let her address the time-frames.)
Consider that China could even have been trying to FRAME or intimidate Baric with a stateside release in the vicinity of his lab. Why? Because NOW we have MOTIVE.
Does it make sense NOW that these highly contagious bugs could have been getting out willy-nilly from these laboratories? Or that China has been playing fast and loose with biological releases?
What does this mean?
It means that the whole NIH-Fauci-Wuhan complex has been in cover-up mode, trying to SAVE THEIR DANGEROUS RESEARCH which they know is VERY likely to be SHUT DOWN BY A CONGRESS RUN BY THE PEOPLE – no matter WHAT THE CAUSE OF THIS RELEASE.
Remember how I said the President Wolf Moon would send a cruise missile into every BSL level 4 that didn’t shut down immediately upon his inauguration? Those missiles armed with whatever insured that all viruses were FRIED?
See the motive to get rid of Trump now? WE THE PEOPLE cannot be allowed to interfere with their “holy” research.
And wait – there’s MOAR.
Somewhere in the years between 2005 and 2010, around the time I got an extremely SARS-CoV-2-like infection, complete with anosmia, exhaustion, and “sore lung”, I took note of the fact that all of my Asian colleagues in the “anti-CCP” camp became very religious about taking COVID-like precautions in our CCP-Chinese-infested workplace. These precautions included isolation, surface and aerosol measures, like wipes, air filters, and even clothing choices.
Most of us dismissed it as an “Asian thing” like masks, even though it was a sudden and new social phenomenon, but because I had contacts in that community who were sometimes sources of insight on CCP skulduggery, I noticed that ONLY the “antis” were engaging in the protective behaviors – the mainlanders and pro-CCP Hong Kongers/Taiwanese were not.
Interestingly, I was not getting any good information on the trend – unlike other scuttlebutt at the time.
Was it real or disinformation? Was it an op to flush out the antis? Was it “anti” paranoia?
I have no idea. But I personally think that China has been up to “bio-tricks” for a LONG time – as in back BEFORE SARS (2003).
If 2018 is the first time China released any biologicals, I would be VERY surprised.
SO – see what you think. Read this sucker, and then think about it.
I think TES is onto something.
A Note About January 6 – and More
I have been avoiding all things January 6, largely because I don’t want to give Nancy Gambino any “lift” as far as her phony “investigation” into HER OWN CRIME.
I understand her game plan, and I’m not going to play along.
I would have loved to have recounted that amazing day in another long, glowing, “all about me and my experiences” post, but no.
THIS IS WAR.
In my opinion, we can bring down these horrible communists faster by focusing on whatever WE want to focus on.
Nancy says “the fight is over here”.
NOPE. Go to hell, Mafia Bitch. We know what you did. With Kapo’s dirty FBI. And the backing of Mitch McConnell and SCOFFLAW SCOTUS.
Some may want to join the fight against Pelosi right now, and please feel free to “follow Darren Beattie into Pelosi’s breach”, but I think that MANDATES are going to kill these bastards at the polls, if we just help them commit electoral suicide.
Expose the “clot shot” risks more fully, and show that the mandates are MORE EVIL.
We need to make Democrats – destroying America for GREED under the cover of virtue signals – absolutely unelectable, and I think we can.
ENJOY THE SHOW.
Thank you all for being here. Have a great weekend.
And the real DePat is not even warming up or singing or anything. I mean, my little bred down wolf Ying likes to sing along when I’m in the Queen of the Night range. I do have a video…. Somewhere.
Okay, on to some serious stuff.
I had a writing instructor in college who told us that once you see a topic come up three times it was a trend, and go ahead and write about it because someone was bound to buy a story from a freelancer. (This was before the Internet really took off. It was a novelty then.)
Well…guess what.
So, y’all know how China pretty much bought up a whole lot of Africa to exploit the place for minerals and they’re trying to do the same with Afghanistan?
Well, a little closer to home, they’re up to the same thing, and I’m not talking about just the Panama Canal.
Nope.
MonkeyWerx, actually, noticed it last week in the Caribbean, and followed up Monday night with this. (I have it cued to where he starts talking about just the Caribbean.)
And then General Flynn highlighted this article from the UK Daily Mail on his Telegram channel:
China has put pen to paper on a new deal to deepen ties with countries in Latin America and the Caribbean
New deal will see Beijing share nuclear technology, build 5G and communications networks, help develop space programmes and pump cheap infrastructure loans into the region in attempt to buy influence
Comes off the back of years of Chinese investment and trade in the region, which has diminished US power
Beijing plans to ‘take over’ America’s back yard and is a ‘growing threat’ to the US, analysts have warned
PUBLISHED: 09:02 EST, 3 January 2022 | UPDATED: 09:29 EST, 3 January 2022
China has inked a new deal with leaders in Latin America and the Caribbean to deepen ties across almost all areas of society in what one analyst likened to a plot to ‘take over’ the region.
As part of the deal, Beijing has committed to supplying the region with ‘civilian’ nuclear technology, helping to develop ‘peaceful’ space programmes, building 5G networks of the kind Washington warns will be used to spy on people, and to pumping in cheap loans and financing for ‘elaborate development plans.’
China has even pledged to build schools and fund classes teaching Chinese language and ‘culture’, though such institutions have been criticised elsewhere for pushing state propaganda and limiting academic freedom.
It comes off the back of decades of Chinese investment and development in Latin America and the Caribbean which has seen hundreds of billions of dollars poured into the region to build critical infrastructure such as ports, roads, and power plants in what many believe is an attempt to buy power and influence in America’s back yard.
‘There are absolutely ambitions for China to become the dominant influence in Latin America,’ Mateo Haydar, a researcher at the Heritage Foundation said off the back of the latest deal.
(The image won’t copy, but is worth a click. Seriously.)
‘The challenge is comprehensive, and there’s absolutely a security and military interest there. … That threat is growing, and it’s a different kind of threat than what we saw with the Soviets,’ he told the Washington Examiner.
Professor Evan Ellis, of the U.S. Army War College, added: ‘The Chinese don’t say, “We want to take over Latin America,” but they clearly set out a multidimensional engagement strategy, which, if successful, would significantly expand their leverage and produce enormous intelligence concerns for the United States.’
The deal, officially the ‘Joint Action Plan for Cooperation in Key Areas’, was signed last month between China and CELAC, an alliance of Latin American and Caribbean States that encompasses almost all the countries in the region including major players such as Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Venezuela, Uruguay and Chile.
While light on specifics, it sets out a broad roadmap for relations between China and countries in the region up to 2024 – committing them to deepening ties between governments, banks, companies and educational institutions.
Most of the commitments appear routine – such as pledges to preserve the environment, develop green tech, and promote equality and sustainability – but some will certainly give minds in the Pentagon pause for thought.
The first is a commitment to exchange nuclear technology and promote ‘relevant practical projects’ including the training of nuclear scientists to ‘bring into play advantages offered by nuclear technology and nuclear energy.’
The deal specifies that this will be ‘peaceful’ and elsewhere commits the parties to pursuing ‘nuclear disarmament’, but will almost certainly cause concern because the technology used to enrich nuclear fuel can be repurposed to make weapons-grade material for use in bombs.
In the parlance of the Church Lady, isn’t that special.
Or in the immortal words of my sainted grandmother who invented the spiritual happy hour when she sat down in the afternoon to say the Rosary with a gin and tonic… “Oh, $#!+.”
While we have been distracted with the pandemic that isn’t, China has been actively violating the Monroe Doctrine, not that we follow that anymore.
As part of the agreement, the two sides commit to cooperation in the ‘construction of ground infrastructure’ to support space programmes, raising the possibility that such technology could soon be launched, controlled or monitored from America’s doorstep.
And that is not the only area where Chinese and South American technology is likely to combine. The deal also pledges greater cooperation on ‘digital infrastructure, telecommunications equipment, [and] 5G.’
The US has been locked in a proxy-war with China for years over the roll-out of 5G technology, ever since it emerged that Beijing was pulling ahead in the race to build the world’s new information networks.
Mike Pompeo, former US secretary of state, pushed hard in the later years of the Trump administration to persuade western nations and US allies to ditch the technology, warning it would be used to spy on users.
South American countries have been at the epicentre of the battle, trying to appease both Beijing and DC. Jair Bolsonaro, Brazilian president and close ally of Trump, at first pledged to exclude Huawei – one of China’s biggest technology firms – from running part of its network, only to reverse that stance when Trump left office.
According to the text of the deal, it is a fight that look set to continue for some time longer.
China and Latin American states have also agreed to cooperate directly between their militaries, ostensibly for the purpose of fighting terrorism and taking down organised criminal networks.
The two sides said they will ‘share knowledge, policies, technologies and experiences’ in tackling the threats, suggesting some level of cooperation and intelligence sharing between their militaries and police forces.
Other pledges appear to be a continuation of infrastructure projects already underway in region, many of built as part of China’s trillion-dollar Belt and Road initiative.
These include the deepening of ties in trade and financial markets, including investment and loans for ‘elaborate development plans’, and helping with the ‘transition towards green energy’ by building new power plants.
China has also pledged to help with oil, gas a mining exploration, though claims green projects will be given priority over fossil fuels.

45Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, to Beth-sa’ida, while he dismissed the crowd. 46And after he had taken leave of them, he went up on the mountain to pray. 47And when evening came, the boat was out on the sea, and he was alone on the land. 48And he saw that they were making headway painfully, for the wind was against them. And about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. He meant to pass by them, 49but when they saw him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost, and cried out; 50for they all saw him, and were terrified. But immediately he spoke to them and said, “Take heart, it is I; have no fear.” 51And he got into the boat with them and the wind ceased. And they were utterly astounded, 52for they did not understand about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.

It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
