For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from James Paget, titled ‘Look to the Skies’:
Visual Descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: It is the base of a huge majestic Tree, with a lovely carved door. The door is arched at the top with a carved frame around it. There is a wide path of stone steps leading up to the doorway. Lush green growth surrounds the Tree, with mounds of different flowers growing up from around the Tree’s massive, exposed roots. Round lanterns are hanging from a few of the Tree’s branches, giving off a soft light. Butterflies are visiting the flowers…and a long-tailed pheasant is flying up from a mound of flowers. Second Image: Is a cozy, soft lit room with a large tree trunk in the center. There are comfy-looking couches and a coffee table with a wooden chess set. Beside them is a bent-wood rocker with shearling throw on it. In the background, there is a table and chairs. Third Image: Is President Trump, waving to us before he boards Air Force One. He has a solemn look on his face, which is no wonder, given the immense weight he carries for us.

It’s Caturday!
And this is the weekend when we lose an hour to Daylight Savings Time.
Thanks to some fat old guys in DC, we are forced to go through this hellish torment every year.
Those old farts never had to try to get their kids to bed when it’s still broad daylight outside!
Yeah, when I put it that way, a damn tiny computer bug seems like a lot bigger deal than it appears on my iddy biddy phone, but THAT IS THE BENEFIT of having independent, loud-mouthed, wolf-mannered software developers serving as unannounced GAMMA TESTERS of your product.
Hey, I could have put it worse. I could have said
DON’T LET THESE DIRTY ROTTEN DEMS FUCK WITH TURTLEHEAD’S GAME, YOU DOPES, OR WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE UNDER PRESIDENT CROOKED HILLARY OR JOE “WHAT DOES THIS BUTTON DO” BIDEN.
Bottom Line: Consider this the world’s most dangerous and assholish bug report. But WAKE UP YOU SUCKERS – we are dealing with MA CANKLES, and she ain’t no ordinary criminal.
THE COOK stews THE TURTLE over THE WOLF’S mangy carcass.
OK, let’s back up.
Have any of you heard of “WinRed”?
WINRED is that thing on your PHONE that takes your TRUMP DONATIONS at the END OF THE MONTH.
You know how you get all those guilt-inducing emails and messages from EVERYBODY?
President Trump
Vice President Pence
Mitch McConnell
Kevin McCarthy
Steve Scalise
Elise Stefanik
Eric Trump
Lara Trump
Don Jr.
Many, many more
Those messages that get more and more desperate as the end of the month approaches, and MORE and MORE “X”? 2X, then 3X, then 4X, then 5X, and if you’re like me, you wait until the end of the month, after doing the bills, to make sure you can give a nice donation with 4X or 5X for
FOUR MORE YEARS
Right?
AND IT GETS BETTER.
What they’re doing NOW is adding options for MOAR MONEY to MOAR PEOPLE.
People like MITCH, and KEVIN, and all your FAVORITE MAGA STARS. Also for people in tight races.
THE DOWNTICKET RACES.
NOW – this stuff is important, because TRUMP just told us that WINNING THIS ELECTION is the strategy to HEAL AMERICA. Thanks to MARICA for alerting me to what our VSG said.
Now – I have to tell you – Trump has stated in other venues that his idea of winning this election includes a STRONGER SENATE and a FLIPPED HOUSE.
And we ain’t gonna do that if these people are ROBBED of their WinRed donations.
Well, hold onto your iPhones, people.
HERE IS THE BUG.
The phone browser system always takes all your information, then gives you the PAYMENT INTERFACE. The payment interface includes a CREDIT CARD or APPLE PAY.
Now, in the past, I used both, because my Apple Pay goes to the same credit card. Not much difference. But THIS was all before they started adding the interface for EXTRA donations to Mitch and crew. Once that happened, for no particular reason, I just happened to choose the credit card option. And at the end, after giving money to Trump, I would give some to the other folks.
BUUUUUT…..
This last time, interestingly, the APPLE PAY option didn’t WAIT – it appeared EARLY, and got in front of my usual donation sequence. It didn’t WAIT to appear with the credit card payment stuff, after I had gone to the trouble of entering all my data.
NOPE – it appeared right at the beginning, because I had jumped right there from a personalized link in a text message. It knew who I was, filling in my name and a couple of other items, knew who I was going to pay, and presented me with the option to simply go to APPLE PAY right up front.
So I tried it. And it paid, RIGHT THEN, and just dumped me out into a weird “done” state that looked like I hadn’t even STARTED the donation process. Yeah, it was easy, but it felt like I hadn’t even donated.
First of all, I had no idea if Apple was going to make sure that my numbers got added to the monthly totals for the GOP, because I hadn’t really gone through the normal collection of all my data. Maybe they DID send my info – maybe they DIDN’T. I got no notifications – no receipts. The whole thing felt weird – like I wasn’t even sure that WinRed got my money.
As of YESTERDAY they had not notified my credit card – I’ll check again soon.
But THAT wasn’t the worst part.
NO MITCH. NO KEVIN. NO STEVE. NO ELISE.
I wanted to give Mitch some money. Oh, I’ll do it at the end of THIS month – plenty of EXTRA to make up for missing February – but really, the BIGGER GAME IS APPARENT.
If you use Apple Pay – at least in that early part – based on my experience – it does NOT take you through to the other candidates.
THAT is a HELL OF A BUG.
Politically effective “whoops” disguised as CONVENIENCE.
Now I ain’t blamin’ WinRed. WinRed is a great, WINNING product. But the problem is very likely that they’re GOOD PEOPLE. They haven’t dealt with the shiftiest of criminals, like DA WOOF has.
Most people aren’t SUSPICIOUS AS HELL OF APPLE. But when I figured out that APPLE WATCH knew when I was TAKING A DUMP AT WORK during initial testing – yeah – it knows when you unlock your gun case, too.
Nothing as dangerous as an HONEST MAN in I.T., brothers and sisters.
Anyway, these people who lost coin are some VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE in November…..
LIKE THE GUY RESPONSIBLE FOR 220 JUDGES…..
…..who in my opinion likely got screwed out of some MAJOR CASH.
SO – I just want to say……
PLEASE don’t let one BAD APPLE spoil the Turtle Pond.
THINK DIFFERENT.
Wolf just wants a happy forest. Happy Turtle, happy Honeybadger, happy Lion – happy Wolf.
Maybe not so happy jackass and maybe not so happy rotten apple farmer, but tough luck, you sneaks. We’ll catch YOU on the NEXT TRICK.
This is another Wolf “please bear with me” post, so please bear with me! Break out the damn wine glass, if you must! Heck – I think I may just do it now…..
What I’m trying to say here doesn’t really lend itself to logic. It doesn’t even lend itself to WORDS. It’s more like a FEELING. It’s the way CHICKS THINK (you know, like CHICK FLICKS). But I think it’s important, and it all centers around a comment I made – a comment about TRUMP that Alison wanted me to share with the whole gang.
There is MORE that I wanted to say than just that comment, however, and I found how to say it in ANOTHER comment that I made to Daughn, where I didn’t actually SAY anything, but I kind of “shared our probable similar feelings about Italy” with a picture. Alison noticed THAT comment, too, so I knew I was on the right path. Logic? Yes and no. A kind of LOGIC OF FEELINGS and a FEELING OF LOGIC.
I kinda hate the way the logo and tagline show up on that picture of Diane Lane from the film “Under The Tuscan Sun” – so let’s have it again here, one more time.
THERE – that’s more like it!
That LOOK on her face – kinda smilin’ – studying that bottle – maybe – or does she see some romantic Italian dude walking up to her? Or is it some comic relief neighbor in one more formulaic situation that – AW SHUCKS, WHATEVER! WE LOVE IT!!! TOO MUCH WINNING!!!
It’s kinda funny – this picture reminds me of Daughn – I can say that now – because Daughn responded to the picture like this, when I posted it in relation to her Open Thread, where she talked about looking at properties in Italy.
Can’t believe you put her picture up. First time I went [to Italy], freshly divorced, was the summer that movie came out. Dumb girlfriends thought I wrote it, bizarre.
I’ll skip – for now – my romantic memories of Italy, with my wife, at about the very same time. But yes – Italy is a wonderful place, and that movie just hooks right into that feeling.
I love that I can just take some image out of a movie and it SAYS SO MUCH – in particular to one person who – for reasons which border on nothing but pure intuitions – just seemed like the RIGHT recipient.
Some people might call it synchronicity – others might see it more spiritually. Some might try to deconstruct it psychologically – others might build on it until they have a mystical religious experience.
MY point is gonna be, however, that AS Q SAYS…..
MEMES ARE IMPORTANT
AS IN…..

Q
Q Post 2754
Now Q is talking about memes – IN MY HUMBLE OPINION – on multiple levels. Q is getting us used to double meanings, and triple meanings, and saying things with STYLE again, because – IN MY HUMBLE OPINION – that is part of MATURITY. And we are TIRED of being DUMBED DOWN and treated like CHILDREN, which the DEMS and the CABAL have been doing for DECADES.
It’s time to WAKE UP!
So when a PICTURE can tell a thousand words – LET IT. If I can respond to Daughn with a picture that says “HEY DAUGHN! – I KNOW WHAT YOU’RE THINKING! – NUDGE, NUDGE!” – well – why not?
SIDETRACK / SHORTCUT / DODGE INTO THIS HERE ALLEY so we get to the REAL VATICAN faster…..
What would you say if I told you that “transhumanism” isn’t THEIR thing – it’s OUR thing?
You’ve READ your Bibles, I take it. Right? Remember the “TRANSfiguration” and other SPOOKY THINGS – right? Well, just BEAR IN MIND that God has stuff planned. FOR OUR GOOD. So sometimes we have to REMIND OURSELVES that it’s sometimes SCARY but EXCITING – kinda like a roller coaster….
I am FREQUENTLY led back to an impression that God has plans for us – for growth and maturity – and that there are OTHERS who want to KEEP US OFF THE ROLLER COASTER.
You seein’ what I’m sayin’?
When I talk about SOFTWARE SUPREMACY, I’m also talking about HARDWARE INFERIORITY. This parallels a lot of spiritual stuff. We can DO THINGS with hardware, but understanding
WHAT TO DO
WHY TO DO IT
WHAT NOT TO DO
WHY NOT TO DO IT
That is all part of software supremacy as well.
THEY try to keep us focused on HARDWARE – stuff like RACE and SEX and LIFE EXTENSION and IMPLANTS and TRANS-SEXUALISM.
Yet WE are served by focusing on SOFTWARE – stuff like EDUCATION and MORALITY and SPIRITUALITY and PRINCIPLES. And in my opinion, it’s because we are looking up the ladder to GOD when we do.
But whether we’re talking about HARDWARE or SOFTWARE – at some point we have to talk about COMMUNICATION.
Communication is the big deal. It’s what we do here.
Have any of you ever felt like we just can’t share our thoughts FAST ENOUGH?
I’m just going to leave that RIGHT THERE. I have no solutions, answers, or speculations that are worth sharing – nothing worth any more than YOUR OWN THOUGHTS.
That idea of “leaving it as a question” is so “Q”. I totally get Q on this now. Q asks questions, and when Q is asking questions, there is WAY MORE TRANSMISSION.
As a sidebar to that, it is my HOPE that Q begins to ask more questions. Because that means more good stuff is being shared.
So this stuff is what I’m meandering about. I’m talking about where WORDS FAIL.
NOW – LET ME BLOW YOUR MINDS – by linking THAT idea from this DAUGHN comment back to the comment that ALISON wanted me to share.
I will do it in two parts, which I present as two questions. The first is the part Alison wanted me to share. The second is what Daughn’s comment about that meme made me realize, which wraps the first and proves it, in a somewhat mind-blowing way.
(1) Just how smart is our VSG?
(2) What is going on here with our thinking and communicating?
If I was Trump, I’d turn the question back on the Fake News for bonus points!!!
“I don’t know, maybe we should ask THEM [motions with hand toward the questioner’s fellow fake news compatriots] first. They’re supposed to be the news. They’re supposed to know this. So who is Q? Has anybody investigated? He’s that conspiracy theory that was right about The Hoax – right? That’s better than the fake news. I think only a couple of networks got that right. OAN and somebody else. Ask them! Who is this Q? Whoever he is, he got The Hoax right. Maybe he’s real. Maybe I know who he is, too.”
And I have to say, just having a single thought ABOUT the mind of Trump – even more something from within the mind of Trump – is a blessing and a privilege!
I was fortunate in some ways to cross over from Ted Cruz to Trump, because I had to really work to try to understand Trump. I also had an “escalator” friend who is a very smart guy, and I was surprised by his choice of Trump, even more so because it was so early. He had never said a word about Trump before, either. Totally out of the blue. That is when I started to consider Trump possible. I could not dismiss Trump. Then my WIFE went for Trump, and I began to think I’d better listen to those ads that convinced her.
Sundance really got me to consider Trump seriously, but I refused to just jump from Cruz – I needed convincing. But my post history over on CTH reflects that journey of understanding.
Eventually I had to accept that Trump is simply smarter than me, because everything he did made sense upon reflection and study. And the more that happened, the more I realized something else that was really shocking.
I worked at a really interesting place with a lot of very smart people. We had been blessed with a long string of extremely smart, “Trumpian” leaders. But there was a point where I realized – and nobody would believe this, but I would tell them anyway – “Trump is smarter than all of us put together. This whole damn place!”
I still stand by that. Just some of the algorithms that I *suspect* Trump is using, without even breaking a sweat, are beyond me, or the people I’ve worked with!!!
We would be idiots not to re-elect Trump! Idiots! I can only appeal to God himself to help us and bless us, undeserving, with Trump’s continued leadership!
Now before I go on to the next question, I need to elaborate this in several ways.
FIRST, remember what Thomas Wictor said – that Trump is one of the most revolutionary Presidents that this nation has ever had. I agree with this idea deeply and without reservation.
SECOND, remember that Trump is changing America in profound ways, but perhaps the MOST profound is to appoint judges who adhere to the Constitution and its proper interpretation and design – people who RESPECT the design of the Founders.
THIRD, remember that what Trump is doing in the case of these judges is appointing people who are among THE BEST at what they do – and not even people who necessarily LIKE Trump. Trump is EMPOWERING OTHER PEOPLE TO FIX AMERICA, AND THE WORLD.
FOURTH, remember that this particular fix is a radically expansive change. Trump is asymmetrically fixing things in the judiciary, with the aid of Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Think about that. It’s exponential. It’s YUGE.
Now we’re ready to go on.
What is going on here with our thinking and communicating?
Here is the mind-blower.
Trump has CHANGED all of us. All of US have been TRANSFORMED by Trump. Every individual here. How we talk – how we communicate – how we relate – HOW WE THINK. Some of which I predict will have massive effects on the future.
ALL of that has been changed by Trump.
Changed. Every one of us. Changed. Our group. CHANGED. Our expectations for the future. CHANGED. What we even think is even POSSIBLE in the future.
CHANGED. ALL OF IT.
Now multiply that all across MAGA, and then around the world.
AND YET.
ALL of THAT CHANGE IN OUR THINKING – is just ONE of the changes which Trump has made.
One change. Just one. Just like all that judiciary change is one change. Just one.
I mean, within that one change, namely what we think, then what we think about ONE THING – tariffs – has changed, but that change in our thinking is ATOM-SCALE MICRO-POTATOES next to TARIFFS themselves and the ACTUAL changes in those.
Now multiply that across all Trump changes domestic, and then around the world.
Do you see how BIG the “Trump Effect” has gotten?
When I was in Italy, I was not in Tuscany, which actually would have been damn nice. Nope. My primary reason for being there was to support my wife’s interest in Roman history. IN ROME. And I learned a LOT.
Roman history is BIG. It’s EXPANSIVE. It’s YUGE.
AND YET.
Yeah. Think about it. The changes NOW are astronomically BIGGER.
We are basically through THREE years of Trump – limited somewhat by THE HOAX and by Fake Impeachment. What’s going to happen in FIVE MORE years, without all that obstructive CRAP?
This Merry Warrior Monday Open Thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KMAG/KAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
Yes, it’s Monday…again.

This Fortress Q Tree Saturday Open Thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KMAG/KAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
Free Speech is practiced here at the Q Tree. But please keep it civil.

Visual Descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header and First Image: Is an enormous Tree standing alone in a clearing with a giant door built into the base of the trunk. A lone figure is approaching the doorway. There are patches of moss and small leafy branches emerging up and down the gnarled trunk. Second Image: Is an interior room with vaulted ceilings and arched throughways. There is a sturdy-looking couch with throw pillows and nearby armchairs. Behind the couch is a table and chairs…and there are additional seating groups in the adjacent spaces. Third Image: Is President Trump walking in the rain towards the steps of Air Force One, carrying an umbrella. The text on this image reads: The Storm Is Upon Us – God We Ask That You Shelter and Protect Our President.
Apparently, our little Coronavirus thread, and updated threads, are MILES ahead of the politicians and pundits on MSM (Sure wish we received classified briefings though, can you put in a word for us, Wolfie?) AND, I’ve found, publishing OUR link, along with a message of “We’ve been working on this issue since January. Here are 100’s of links, videos, sources, and hints. Be informed, not fearful”……… shuts down all political opposition. It’s truly stunning how ill-informed the media is on the subject (or they are intentionally misleading the public). The amount of DISINFO presents a hazard.
Nonetheless, our little thread has tremendous value, both as real information for those who are new to the subject or genuinely worried, AND for those who using the virus as a political weapon. I shared our thread today across social media. In the last 7 hours, I’ve received at least 2 dozen private messages of thanks and hundreds of short messages……. people feel better when they have information in their hands. Let’s give them information.
The current thread expires at the end of the month and I’m putting together a new one for the first week of March. Thinking we will update once a week until crisis subsides. Good idea or no?
Please, I need your contributions. Please post here, anything you have. I’ll be happy to sort it out over a long weekend and add to an updated thread. Please include a source/link, where you can and pretty please, DATE the source. I figured out a little too late that dates create a huge problem. For instance, I might type a brief sentence and say “yesterday, Laura Ingraham show”. Well, several days later, I have no idea WHICH day was “yesterday”. See what I mean?
Miss Gail Combs, I was wondering, nudge, nudge, if you could find some spare time, to provide us with a similar update like you did last time. If you can’t get it in by Sunday, I can always edit the post and add it later. Would be most appreciative. Where is Smiley2? I need you, and Aubergine, and the chemist guys, and info about air travel from FG&C, and Bakocarl’s tidbits, and everyone.
People are afraid when they don’t know what they’re dealing with, and we have reams of information. You guys pull items from Chiefio, foreign sources, etc. We always joked that QTree was an amazing collection of expertise, and we’re proving it now, when it counts. We’re fortunate to have different people with varying skill sets (medical- econ- VALUABLE hints from our grandparents- herbal medicine- Heloise-type-hints on how to keep a clean home/office) to add to the post. And it’s the only way to examine the whole problem.
Unless someone has a better idea (and heaven knows, I’m always open to a better idea), we’re going to divide the post into the following categories. If you think we need another category, let me know. This has become, very much, a group project:
The dashboard from Johns Hopkins which counts “official” cases all over the world.
Trump Administration response (the timeline and links to various agencies)
China Responses
Aggregated responses from other countries (I’m going to tear this one apart)
(WAIT BEFORE READING THIS – we’ll do it together later in the post.)
… on February 17 tells me who is living rent-free in her mind. February the Qth was no accident. And yet – at this point – her little deniable taunt has almost no effect. Rather, it smacks of desperation.
We “know”. We simply know. No amount of calling us “Know Nothings” will save the coup. It’s that simple.
Ah, yes – that would appear to work both ways, for as Thomas Wictor once pointed out, Donald J. Trump may in fact be the most revolutionary President this country has had since EITHER Washington or Lincoln – take your pick.
And they’re TRIGGERED.
The anti-Trump embedded Soviet Democrat apparatus – of which Jenn Rubin is now a painfully, even humorously obvious member, is at this point in an all out war with something they can’t even admit exists, because THEY were the ones who backed themselves into a corner of “know-nothingism” about the QAnon psy-op.
And when I say “psy-op”, I’m really minimizing, because it’s becoming quite clear that the QAnon “anti-coup” is much, much bigger than just the simple world-wide deniable psy-op that it presented on its earlier surface. In fact, “the Q we knew and they loved to denigrate” was like just a single coronavirus spike on the total package, but one with UNDENIABLE, LOGICAL, and FORENSICALLY IRREFUTABLE modified features that pointed with great certainty toward its ORIGIN and TRUTH.
Yes Jenn – you lose TWO TIMES on THAT exact point. ENJOY THE SHOW.
Q is so big, when you understand its true extent and magnitude, that it becomes quite easy to see why it simply scares the HELL out of these people.
The irony is particularly rich here, and of course absolutely exemplary of the fact that the LEFT – of which Jenn Rubin is a “card-carrying” member – is all about accusing others of what THEY either DO or ARE.
NO – the leftists, both the open ones on the left and hidden ones on the fake right, are ON THE ROPES NOW – quite authentically – after having been ROPE-A-DOPED by the one guy who totally got Muhammad Ali at a Sun Tzu level – his authentic friend, Donald J. Trump.
As the electorate is gradually and continuously – as in “nothing can stop what’s coming” – wising up to how the Washington sell-out elite has sandbagged us for well over a century – more so since the advent of FAKE NEWS – the old reliable WEAPONS of the left are simply falling apart.
It’s rather glorious.
Of these weapons, DUPES are among the greatest prizes that Trump has liberated from crypto-Bolshevik worldview captivity. Speaking from my own experience, there is NOTHING – and NOBODY – like a wised-up DUPE to take down communists.
The greatest example, IMO – the great Whittaker Chambers.
Whittaker Chambers offered a rare “view from the inside” of the core communist conspiracy here in America. If you are not familar with his case, you can look, for instance, here.
The fact that I’m bringing Whittaker Chambers up at the same time as Tom Cotton and other former #NeverTrump, or maybe even Jenn Rubin and Alger Hiss, is not due to the inherent similarity of their VERY dissimilar cases, but rather because I want to make an incredibly important point.
DUPING – DECEPTION OF UNDERLINGS, TARGETS, THE OPPOSITION, AND EVEN BYSTANDERS is a CONSTANT across all levels and reaches of communist conspiracy. The duping of Whittaker Chambers and Alger Hiss by their masters differed only from the duping of Jennifer Rubin and Tom Cotton in the type, nature, and specifics of the lies used to get them to behave as desired.
Even within the hierarchy of committed communists, an extraordinary amount of deception occurs in EVERY interaction. It is a nearly, if not exactly, Luciferian economy of lies – not unlike the “carbon economy” that the “climate commies” almost imposed upon us through THEIR army of dupes. One cannot even begin to unravel communist conspiracy without, at every turn, considering whether a player is KNOWING, UNKNOWING, DECEIVED, or ALL OF THE ABOVE. Indeed, Senator Joe McCarthy’s greatest mistake was – in my opinion – failure to sympathize with the dupe – or – more specifically – to sympathize with the dupe in every player.
If you can’t see yourself as a communist pawn, as McCarthy eventually became, you cannot see what they’re doing. It’s a battle with THE LIE itself, and everybody loses a little in the process.
When you understand that the most diehard opponents of communism can easily become its most reliable and predictable marionettes, ready to jump through the right hoops in the left’s next false puppet show (Sea Island conservatives, anyone?), THEN you understand what we are truly up against.
So have a little sympathy for Jenn Rubin – she’s gonna need it. She – like all the rest of us – has been a dupe of the left.
NOW – it’s time to talk about another player in the larger drama – both a DUPE and a DUPER – namely Bill Kristol.
This piece has the NeverTrumpers in a snit—they hate when real journalism exposes what total frauds they are and the left wing interests that fund NeverTrump’s scam. So please share far and wide to further agitate Rick Wilson… https://t.co/GkHwQIbTY7
Look right there, folks. Both the deceiver and the deceived are on display. A DUPE of the left, just passing on the DUPAGE in new ways.
But where does this come from?
The very TOP of Bolshevism – a long time ago – would be my answer.
Deception is a way of life for these people, and it’s not pretty. Bolsheviks – the deepest of the politically deceived, embrace it with every part of their body.
So where does Bill Kristol, the ringmaster of NeverTrump, fit into Bolshevik deception? In my opinion, somewhere down at the hoodwinked Menshevik, CIA tool, familial Trotskyist, “conflicted conservative in a progressive Reform temple” level (the latter being the LITERAL description of similar NeverTrump “conservative” Michael Bloomberg).
I have a LONG, OLD Twitter thread on Bill Kristol and his “pink diaper” background, something critically necessary to understand his essential nature. Sorry if this FIRST enigmatic tweet of the thread does not make immediate sense. Twitter suspended the amazing researcher who I am referencing here. Which brings up a very important point. Twitter bans researchers only in part to remove them. Much more importantly, Twitter does this to hide THOUGHTS, EVIDENCE and KEY REASONING.
This Twitter thread, taking a long and fascinating route, explains WHY we saw the bizarre event of Bill Kristol’s NeverTrump BullWanker Boys defending Kamala Harris and Russian red diaper hoaxer Jussie Smollett from a bad joke that ended up backfiring when taken literally by MAGA Twitter.
I can sum up where the thread leads very simply. Self-deceiving dupes like Mensheviks are CRITICAL to “sell the goods” down the line, and thus FAKE CONSERVATIVES like Kristol, Rubin, and assorted Merry Mensheviks are created, promoted, and amplified to feed the Soviet Fake News with America’s version of Pravda and Izvestia. Whether it’s to promote sabotaged memes like free but unfair trade, used to support world socialism, or to protect core players like Heels-Up Harris and Cryin’ Jussie, fake conservatives have profound uses to the radical left – they are NECESSARY.
Check it out if you’re interested – otherwise, let’s “move on”.
It’s time to RETURN to Jenn Rubin’s paywalled Washington Post opinion piece.
First of all, there is NO WAY that I’m going to ask you to subscribe to that Soviet Fake News monstrosity, the Washington Post, just to see one bogus opinion piece by Jenn Rubin. Ridiculous! And yet – well – you would do well to read it, just to see how the screaming has gone up by an order of magnitude. SO – if you DO have a subscription to this horrible rag, then here is that link again:
When Ivy League-educated, formerly sane politicians spew conspiracy theories, debunked talking points and contempt for science, the question often arises: Do they believe this nonsense (i.e. have they become thickheaded by listening to Rush Limbaugh and watching all that Fox News?), or are they cynical purveyors of claptrap designed to woo unsophisticated voters? (Disclosure: I am an MSNBC contributor.)
That query came to mind when Harvard Law school graduate Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) descended into sheer quackery and decided to perpetrate conspiracies about the origin of the coronavirus. The Post reports:
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) repeated a fringe theory suggesting that the ongoing spread of a coronavirus is connected to research in the disease-ravaged epicenter of Wuhan, China. Cotton referenced a laboratory in the city, the Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory, in an interview on Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures.” He said the lab was near a market some scientists initially thought was a starting point for the virus’s spread.
This is unadulterated nonsense, one step removed from anti-vaxxer rubbish and UFO-spotting. (“In response to Cotton’s remarks, as well as in previous interviews with The Washington Post, numerous experts dismissed the possibility the coronavirus may be man-made.”)
Jenn Rubin, Washington Post, February 17, 2019
Nasty! And it gets worse.
Notice how “The Post” is layering opinion onto their own biased reporting, but keeping them separate, to keep the accusations of – well – WHAT THEY ARE CLEARLY DOING – in check.
Jenn Rubin is resorting to Alinsky ridicule here. Of course the Alinsky press – her employers – are not going to call her to task for being proven WRONG during the following week, as China indeed began to back off strongly on the origins of the virus, as scientific evidence is now CLEARLY showing human manipulation of the protein sequences – changes which simply could not occur though normal evolution. TAMPERING is clear. I don’t particularly care what China’s NEXT excuse is, just like I don’t particularly care what Jenn Rubin’s next attack on our side is.
Listening to Fake News FIRST is almost always the FIRST MISTAKE at this point.
Well, look at that. The Chinese Communist Party’s propaganda rag finally admits what I’ve said for a month: coronavirus didn’t start in Wuhan food market. So where did it originate? Time for answers from CCP. https://t.co/UTvcjvrHNz
Yes, look at that. Just FIVE DAYS LATER and Jenn Rubin goes under China’s bus of continually restated LIES. Nobody had to wait 28 days.
Jennifer Rubin, not only LIKE Communist China, but ALONG WITH Communist China, has simply lost credibility.
You want the news on the coronavirus?
READ OUR THREADS and follow along as we SLOWLY and PAINFULLY figured it all out, gathering honest thoughts on it from all over the web, and coming to the same conclusions gathering NOW, that the science actually started to show at the beginning.
IT WAS A CHINESE BIOWEAPON, “SOMEHOW” ESCAPED, AND NOW BEING DECEPTIVELY INFORMATION-CONTROLLED BY CHINA, THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION, AND AMERICA’S FAKE NEWS COMPLEX. INCLUDING JENN RUBIN, PERSONALLY.
Yes, let’s put it very plainly. She’s enabling the Chinese Communist lies.
Yeah, one might have to use their brain to sort through all that discussion and discern the emerging and evolving consensus, but hey – that’s our WHEAT-CHAFF SORTER. Jenn can’t do it, because she’s a PERSON OF THE LIE. AWAY, CHAFF.
Yeah. It’s complicated. “Know-nothingism.” Sounds a bit like “old scientific skepticism”. I LIKE IT.
Just because you don’t UNDERSTAND IT, Jenn, doesn’t mean it’s not REAL. You may have to do some adapting to the new world.
Now if you want to see WHY Tom Cotton has earned the IRE of the “bio-blood-hoaxing socialist set”, with their Soviet/Maoist biowarfare schemes disguised as “whoops”, just check this out:
This is politically correct pablum, @DrTedros. The greatest enemy is of course the virus, not hurt feelings or fear or stigma. All this kind of idiocy does is make people question the WHO’s priorities. https://t.co/ser1Qqqxf7
Archived as an image, because socialist Twitter is likely to suspend Tom Cotton and delete his content at some point.
Daughn’s reply to this is SPOT ON. In a sane world, WaPo and Jenn Rubin would have to answer for their tiresome and pathetic ass-covering on behalf of China, WHO, and the damned virus itself. Daughn would have a column in a truthful WaPo, and Jenn Rubin would be LEARNING how to make those blueberry muffins from Daughn. And not very well, I suspect.
Now, it may be that Jenn Rubin doesn’t have a TASTE for what China and the rest of world communism are resorting to right now, and is having some difficulty facing the truth of a NEW HOLOCAUST of her own side’s making, but, as Whittaker Chambers could have told Alger Hiss when he decided to come clean….
“That’s too damn bad. It’s time for the TRUTH to be told.”
Kinda funny. Q said these folks wouldn’t be able to walk the streets. Between their own crimes and their own damn virus, it sounds about right. But we’ll wait for a court to tell us the truth. We’re patient, and we believe in rule of law.
Maybe Jenn Rubin will have her own Whittaker Chambers moment.
But she does seem kinda nervous now, doesn’t she?
And now, we get onto the final part of this response. A teaching moment about American Bolshevism, so that people can actually get a flavor for the degree to which American Bolsheviks can and will sell this country out.
It is much easier to convince you of Jenn Rubin’s mild, almost funny sell-out, when you see REAL sell-out like this guy. To go along with “Uranium Girl” Hillary Clinton, we once had “Polonium Boy”.
Let’s talk about GEORGE ABRAMOVICH KOVAL.
When you read about THIS:
You usually think about THESE people.
Sometimes, you think a bit more modern, too.
The person you DON’T think about is George Koval, because you never heard of him.
Koval is MUCH more embarrassing than the Rosenbergs, because he exposes a lot of history you’re not supposed to know about. That history includes a deep schism in Judaism between Zionists and Socialists – one which is either EXACERBATED or SMOOTHED OVER as a kind of historical transistor, creating a massive “handle” on Jews for manipulation by Bolshevism. Moreover, if you follow the Koval story, you will see how LONG AGO the Bolsheviks learned to weaponize fluid borders, human migrations, persecution as cover for spy insertion, and all kinds of nastiness which is NEVER, EVER covered in American leftist public schools or academia.
When the Soviet Democrats finally took complete control of media, education, and even history itself, you stopped hearing about the Rosenbergs, but you NEVER EVEN heard about George Koval.
Koval was a far less “glorious” traitor than the left-romanticized Rosenbergs.
I mean – I have a strong INTEREST in nuclear history, and I didn’t know about this guy until just recently. But this guy was GOOD. Very good. Bad for America, but VERY GOOD for Soviet Russia.
Here is Wikipedia’s quick synopsis of Koval’s significance.
George Abramovich Koval (Russian: Жорж (Георгий) Абра́мович Кова́ль, IPA: [ˈʐorʐ (ɡʲɪˈorɡʲɪj) ɐˈbraməvʲɪtɕ kɐˈvalʲ] (listen), Zhorzh Abramovich Koval, December 25, 1913 – January 31, 2006) was an American who acted as a Soviet intelligence officer for the Soviet atomic bomb project. According to Russian sources, Koval’s infiltration of the Manhattan Project as a GRU (Soviet military intelligence) agent “drastically reduced the amount of time it took for Russia to develop nuclear weapons.”[1][2][3][4][5]
Koval was born to Russian Jewish immigrants in Sioux City, Iowa. As an adult, he traveled with his parents to the Soviet Union to settle in the Jewish Autonomous Region near the Chinese border. Koval was recruited by the Soviet GRU (military intelligence), trained, and assigned the code name DELMAR. He returned to the United States in 1940 and was drafted into the U.S. Army in early 1943. Koval worked at atomic research laboratories and, according to the Russian government, relayed back to the Soviet Union information about the production processes and volumes of the polonium, plutonium, and uranium used in American atomic weaponry, and descriptions of the weapon production sites. In 1948, Koval left on a European vacation but never returned to the United States. In 2007 Russian President Vladimir Putin posthumously awarded Koval the Hero of the Russian Federation decoration for “his courage and heroism while carrying out special missions”.[6]
I urge you to read the ENTIRE Wikipedia article, because it will open your eyes to a reality which American communists – AMERICAN BOLSHEVIKS – have gone to ELABORATE PAINS to hide from us.
You have undoubtedly heard about a nation called Israel. Well, that one wasn’t the problem. It’s Stalinist competitor, in the Soviet Union, on the border with China, where George Koval was INCUBATED and then SENT BACK TO AMERICA – that was the problem.
Oh, the face-palm of Stalin’s attempt to compete with Israel by creating a socialist alternative does NOT end with the rainbow flag. His first pass at “excuseniks” in the late 1930’s – which was again used to send all kinds of deep red diaper into the US and Israel in the 1970’s and 1980’s – was simply to go into the region and crack down on reactionary religious Jewish practice, so that he could provide persecutory cover for all the deeply atheistic and communist spies to “flee”, which he then sent out into America AND British Palestine.
“Excuseniks” was one of the most brilliant and diabolical ideas the Bolsheviks ever came up with.
George Koval didn’t just magically decide to betray America. A LONG, SLOW process of exposure to AMERICAN COMMUNISTS prepared both Koval and his family for his eventual betrayal of this nation.
NOW – here is the big take-home point that is not going to be easy to digest.
This shit did not end in the 1940s.
It CHANGED, but it did not end.
People are going to have to get used to the idea that when McCarthy was “removed from relevance” by the FAKE NEWS of the early 1950s – manipulated into an idiotic collision with the military and then media-marginalized into a dismissal narrative – that was only the beginning.
Bolshevism then began a slow and steady march that was UTTERLY unlike the straw man of “red scare” communism which the Bolshevik elements in media used to falsely ridicule their opponents.
History is not what you thought it was. FAKE HISTORY – the result of decades of FAKE NEWS and FAKE ENTERTAINMENT – was used to take choice, freedom, and knowledge away from you.
Slowly, carefully, but surely.
Start with George Koval and Jenn Rubin. Study them. Then and Now. Compare and Contrast. Note the differences. Note the similarities. Note the purposes.
Just take some time, because you will need it simply to realize how LONG Fake News has been herding this nation toward the Old Russia Ranch, and now the Same Old China Slaughterhouse.
One was a spy. One is a modern propagandist. Both of them, however, pretended to be things that they clearly were NOT, in the interest of advancing socialism.
Trust me – FAKE CONSERVATIVES are going to be one of the very first classes who are not going to be able to walk the streets. And if you want a historical model for how this works, look at Nazi collaborators in post-World War II France. They kinda kept a low profile to avoid getting their heads shaved, in vengeful concentration camp style.
I will be straight-up here – I don’t even wish a good head-shaving on the American Soviet collaborators. Not even jeers on the street, although – well, it couldn’t happen to nicer communists. However, I do hope that the SPOTLIGHT OF TRUTH shines rather strongly on WHAT THEY DID, and maybe there are some – COUGH – retirements.
Remember. And not just THIS.
They tried to pull a COMMUNIST COUP on us.
Using reverse-blame LIES.
And they KNEW they were LIES.
TIME TO WAKE TF UP.
If these coup inciters, enablers, and PLOTTERS can’t actually walk the streets, maybe that’s not such a bad thing.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from Thomas Bergersen of Two Steps From Hell, titled ‘High C’s’:
Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is a gigantic Tree, sitting on a hill in the middle of a group of buildings and homes. The Tree reaches up into the sky, it’s branches forming an enormous canopy. Underneath the canopy, there is a bright glow shining up from within the Tree. The canopy of the tree stretches out over all the structures below. Second Image: Is a rounded doorway at the top of a stone stairway, built into the base of an enormous Tree. The doors are glass and there is a bright glow coming from beyond the doors. There are plants, vines and vegetation on either side of the stone steps. Third Image: Is an open room with comfy-looking futons, a fluffy throw rug and large throw pillows on a gleaming wooden floor. There are glowing lanterns positioned around on the floor. Fourth Image: Is President Trump walking outdoors, with two secret service agents behind him. He is holding up his left arm out to his side, giving a wave with his hand.
I’m gonna tell you about two of the GREATEST people I know. Both of them would be CUT OFF by that bastard Bloomberg and left to DIE. Both of these men served their country – one at peace, one at war. They spent the BEST YEARS OF THEIR LIVES serving ALL OF US. They did NOT serve us, during their YOUNG, HEALTHY YEARS, as Obama poets, screwing nameless girls and getting high on choom. They did NOT get rich and chase the tail like NANNY BLOOMBERG – though one of them HELPED others – HONEST MEN – get rich, and earned a nice, LIFE-SAVING retirement doing so.
These great men would be left to DIE by that nasty bastard Bloomberg, and it will happen over my dead body. I am going to tell you why this heartless Bloomberg MUST BE STOPPED.
HERE WE GO.
One of these men is now almost 100 years old – a World War II veteran. HE HELPED LIBERATE MY MOTHER and millions of others who were either in camps or destined for them. He was part of the storied American forces to which my mother and her fellow refugees ran, walked, and CRAWLED to avoid more socialism. This wonderful man spent the most formative years of his life following closely behind the front lines in World War II. He now has a hard time remembering which beach he landed on in Normandy, so we figured it out together using his memories and maps on the internet. He told me what it was like to go across the channel, to go up the cliffs, to ride the jeeps. It was like I was there. And when I was in Europe, I saw the EXACT places he slept – yards away from the famous generals we read about in history books. Men whose underlings and underlings of underlings HE reported to. And he has taught me ALL ABOUT the important things – what makes America DIFFERENT and WORTH DEFENDING.
This man is LIVING HISTORY. He is proof that the term “Greatest Generation” is no bullshit.
I have seen his medical care. Some cancer treatments would actually make sense, so that he can live to 100. So that his family – NOW approaching 50 people bearing his name, his face, or both – can have one more summer reunion with him.
He can afford it. His FAMILY would gladly afford it. Why deny it?
This great man was there at the beginning of Social Security. He heard the ORIGINAL PROMISE. But now it would appear that not every presidential candidate cares about PROMISES MADE – PROMISES KEPT. Evidently NANNY BLOOMBERG didn’t make the original promise, so he feels no obligation to even keep AMERICA’S promise.
Yeah, it may be TECHNICALLY TRUE that denying healthcare won’t be “technically” denial of social security’s promise, but that is exactly the kind of guy Bloomberg is. The SPIRIT of the law means NOTHING to him. He is still WELCHING on America’s deal, make no mistake.
My jaw just drops. If you’re wondering why New York went to hell, don’t just look at de Blasio. Look at Bloomberg. Look at “Pre-Blasio”. He started it all. He – the “former” Democrat who CLAIMED – very weirdly – to have become a Republican after 9/11 – is the one who began the true decline of New York City, to what we see today. And I say it is because Bloomberg LACKS CHARACTER. His policies were not LOVING OF THE CITY, but COLD TO ITS PEOPLE. There is a difference.
Next, we talk about another man. He is now stricken with a terrible disease. He is almost completely paralyzed – much like Stephen Hawking was. But this man lived and continues to live a very good life. He is a friend of the veteran.
This man changed your life. Not by war, but by peace. He was on the absolute forefront of applied technology which brought computers into business. When it all went electronic, he was behind it, at the cutting edge. My father worked on a different end of that emergence of computers after World War II, so this is personal on THAT side of my family as well. These men were at the very beginning. They helped make America what it was, and what it is today.
In his young days, when others were having fun, this man was working very hard, and his talents were FOUGHT OVER by the richest and most powerful men in business. He has wonderful stories about these famous men and their companies. Those men and their companies are now part of history – some gone – some still here – all of them historic. They were and are part of your lives.
This great American was very fortunate, and very wise, and put away enough money for a comfortable retirement. He’s not rich, but when the terrible disease struck, he had the money that his family needed to take care of him. He actually lives a very happy life. Spending time with him, I am in some ways envious. He lives in great beauty, comfort and ease, surrounded by Godly and upright people he helped make that way, and while he doesn’t travel as much as he used to, he is happy and funny and a joy to all who know him.
Let me spell this out so even NANNY can read and understand it.
HE INVESTED IN THIS FUTURE.
He is a wonderful person, who enjoys life, and touches the lives of everybody around him. We are ALL pulling for him to stay with us, blessing and enriching our lives.
Would Nanny Bloomberg pull the plug? I guarantee you, if this man did not have the FREE and INDEPENDENT private health insurance that HE WORKED FOR and HE PAID FOR and others want to TAKE AWAY, that cold bastard Nanny COULD and WOULD pull the plug on him. Maybe not directly, but one way or another, this man would LOSE the level of care and protection HE WORKED FOR.
Something is wrong with Nanny Bloomberg. I don’t know what it is, but he is not representative of the America that these great men, or my parents, or YOUR PARENTS fought for.
I have no idea why Nanny Bloomberg is running for office, but it is not to make this country better, let alone great. He almost seems motivated more by hatred of Trump, than by love of America.
At this point, I think it is incumbent upon us to not merely oppose Nanny Bloomberg, but to stop him. He threatens to undo the very soul of this nation. A nation which does not revere its elders – or even WORSE, is not even ALLOWED to revere its elders – is destined for ruin.
It’s time to choose to defend not just the youngest, but the oldest and weakest as well.
They EARNED our respect, and now they need our defense.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from A Shamaluev Music, titled ‘Beauty’:
…………………………………………………………………..
Wheatie’s Word of the Day:
Y’all
“Y’all” is a contraction of two words, that has been around longer than most people realize.
These days, we think of it as a contraction of the words ‘You’ and ‘All’.
But it dates back to a contraction of Ye and All, from the Old English that our Scots-Irish ancestors brought over with them.
Used in a sentence:
Ye all will perish if we listen to the lay-about fools who tell us that we should all share in the fruits of each others’ labours.
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Today is Presidents Day.
Presidents Day is celebrated on the 3rd Monday of February, and started out as a holiday for Washington’s Birthday on February 22nd, established in 1885.
Then, some states added a holiday for Lincoln’s Birthday on February 12th.
In 1968, the Uniform Monday Holiday Act was passed and went into effect in 1971, which combined the two birthday holidays.
There is some confusion, however, as to whether or not an apostrophe should be used after “Presidents”…because we see it both ways, and even before the ‘s’.
I don’t know which way is the proper way…but I don’t consider this guy to be in with the Presidents who are celebrated.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Found this…and thought I would post it for our Wolfie:
