Can We Watch?

The ability to watch the process of an election–from beginning to end–MUST be intentionally designed into the process. Otherwise, it’s just as prone to sleight-of-hand as a magician’s trick.

As Bev Harris (BlackBoxVoting.org) explained, we want to validate who can vote, who did vote, what each voter marked on each ballot, and how all elections materials are tracked and secured.

Provision for observers at each stage of the process is part of what gives legitimacy to our elections.

Election Observers, the Theory.

In theory, at every step of the process, open and transparent access for observers from each interested party should be expected and provided for. Not just when it’s convenient for the elections officials and their staff.

Any resistance to making provision for observers MUST be considered as suspicious at best, possibly a sign of guilt, and always an indication of maladministration of the election process.

You may remember poll workers taping up sheets of cardboard to block the view of the poll during the 2020 elections. I’ve heard reports of similar behavior in other places since then. Didn’t some group have a way to send on the spot reports to them when these types of things were happening during the 2024 election?

Voter Rolls.

If voter rolls are not freely visible to every citizen, if there is not an audit trail for how rolls change over time, if list maintenance procedures are not transparent, then there is room for hidden fraud. You might just want to check what level of access and transparency your state provides for your voter rolls.

“Maintaining an accurate voter registration list is essential to protecting election integrity. Keeping voter registration lists up to date is a continual process that includes adding new eligible voters, updating voter registration information when a voter moves and removing ineligible voters. The process of adding, updating and removing voters is referred to as list maintenance.”
Election Assistance Commission

As mundane as keeping a list up to date would seem, apparently even a lowly voter roll can aid and abet rigging an election. Or elections. Lots of elections.

As documented by Andrew Paquette in the paper, “The Caesar cipher and stacking the deck in New York State voter rolls” someone was clever enough to encode into the rolls a veritable army of zombie voters to be conjured up when needed to tip the scales for an election.

From the abstract:

Voters in New York State are identified by two identification numbers. This study has discovered strong evidence that both numbers have been algorithmically manipulated to produce steganographically concealed record attribute information. One of the several algorithms discovered has been solved. It first utilizes a mechanism nearly identical to the simple ‘Caesar Cipher’ to change the order of a group of ID numbers. Then, it interlaces them the way a deck of cards is arranged to create a ‘stacked deck’. The algorithmic modifications create hidden structure within voter ID numbers. The structure can be used to covertly tag fraudulent records for later use.

Election Observers, state-by-state.

The National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) provides a brief, “Policies for Election Observers.” You can find just about everything you would want to know about your own state’s policies at this link.

Political parties, candidates, citizen groups and independent organizations may deploy observers or watchers to witness election processes in the U.S. Generally, the purpose for these observers is to provide a layer of protection or transparency and to learn from and improve processes, which vary considerably by state. This webpage covers relevant laws and practices for multiple types of election observers nationwide.

In reviewing this brief, I didn’t see anything about allowing observers or insight into mail-in ballot drop boxes, or handling by the USPS. Seems like a problem. As President Trump reminds us all the time, mail-in ballots are “not good.”

Recent Changes to State Laws.

I found the list of recent legislative actions regarding election observers to be an interesting way to get a sampler of what states are focused on these days. Here they are:

Modifications to who can be an election observer of any kind:

  • South Dakota HB 1182 (2024) allows members of the public to observe voting and counting processes at polling places and requires that polling places be arranged so that poll watchers can see and hear what is going on.  
  • North Dakota SB 2292 (2023) clarifies that any individual beside a candidate on the ballot may be an election observer if they inform the election inspector of their intent to serve.  
  • Louisiana SB 74 (2022) clarifies that those who require assistance with voting may serve as poll watchers. 
  • Oklahoma HB 3321 (2022) requires poll watchers to serve in person and not via electronic devices. 
  • Utah HB 387 (2022) Permits preregistered voters (those who are under 18 years old) to serve as poll watchers, permits poll watchers to observe the ballot curing process and requires ballot adjudication in larger cities to be projected on a screen large enough to be viewed by watchers.  
  • Arizona SB 1835  (2021) requires poll watchers to be registered voters in the state. 
  • Texas SB 1 (2021) requires a training program for poll watchers and requires watchers to present a certificate of completion when reporting for observation. The law adds to the list of processes that poll watchers can observe all activities relating to closing a polling place, ballot signature verification, ballot curing and voter assistance efforts. SB 1 also requires poll watchers to take an oath, establishes a penalty for election officials who knowingly refuse to accept a valid certificate for observation, permits election officials to call law enforcement for the removal of a poll watcher who is in violation of the law, and establishes legal remedies for watchers who believe they were unlawfully prevented from observing election processes. 
  • Nebraska LB 1055 (2020) established the role of a poll watcher as either a registered voter of the state or an individual representing a state-based, national or international election monitoring organization. The bill went into effect after the November 2020 elections. 
  • New York AB 1525 (2019) permitted any political committee supporting or proposing a ballot proposal to have watchers in any general, special, town or village election and any party committee and any candidate on the ballot to have three watchers for each election district in a primary election. 
  • Utah SB 94 (2018) consolidated multiple terms for poll watcher (voting poll watchers, counting poll watchers and inspecting poll watchers) to the generic term “poll watcher” and permitted poll watchers to observe various aspects of the process. 
  • Arkansas HB 2138 (2017) prohibited a member of the state or county board of election commissioners from serving as a poll watcher. 
  • California AB 2021 (2016) clarified that international election observers may have uniform and nondiscriminatory access to all stages of the election process that are open to the public. 
  • Tennessee SB 1945 (2016) prohibited the appointment of a candidate’s spouse to serve as an election observer. 
  • Montana HB 529 (2015) prohibited a candidate from serving as a poll watcher. 
  • New York AB 5075 (2014) prohibited candidates for public office in a given election from acting as poll watchers. 
  • Alaska HB 104 (2013) required that poll watchers be U.S. citizens.

Modifications to the process of becoming an observer:

  • Arkansas HB 1457 (2023) establishes a poll watcher bill of rights, requires poll watchers to be qualified electors of the state and receive training before an election.  
  • New Mexico SB 180 (2023) requires poll watchers to attend training before accepting appointment.  
  • Nebraska LB 1055 (2020) established an accreditation process for observers. The bill went into effect after the November 2020 elections. 
  • Arizona SB 1054 (2019) increased the amount of time before an election for nonpartisan observers to apply to observe at a counting center. Only three persons or groups may observe activities at the counting center and are chosen by lot from those who apply. 
  • Louisiana HB 563 (2019) required that a list of watchers be filed with the clerk of the court in each parish where a candidate will have watchers if the office is in more than one parish. 
  • New Mexico HB 407 (2019) amended the definition of watchers to include an election-related organization or any group of three candidates for election in a statewide election and outlines which aspects of the process may be observed. 
  • Mississippi HB 467 (2017) added a credentialing process and code of conduct for partisan poll watchers. 
  • Virginia HB 1333 (2015) specified that the state or district chairman may designate authorized representatives of political parties if the county or city chairman is unavailable to do so. 
  • Wisconsin AB 202 (2014) required all authorized observers to sign in at the polling place and provided for observation areas of not less than 3 feet or more than 8 feet from the voter check-in table. 
  • Arkansas HB 1551 (2013) required the state board of elections to certify at least one state election monitor for each congressional district, and HB 1551 (2013) required training for certified state election monitors. 
  • Texas SB 160 (2013) required election officials to provide poll watchers with identification to be displayed by the watcher at the polling place. 

Modifications to which aspects of the election process may be observed:

  • Colorado SB 276 (2023) establishes poll watcher guidelines for primary and special elections and prohibits poll watchers from taking photos and recording inside the election office or polling place.  
  • Montana SB 93 (2021) permits poll watchers to observe at mail ballot deposit locations (drop boxes). 
  • Texas HB 1128 (2021) clarifies that poll watchers may be present in polling places, at meetings of early voting ballot boards and in central counting stations. 
  • Arkansas SB 488 (2021) allows poll watchers to inspect voter statements and ballots during an election, even though these documents are protected under the state’s public records law. 
  • Florida SB 90 (2021) requires poll watchers to wear identification badges while observing and allows each political party and each candidate to have one watcher with viewing access to ballot signature verification. 
  • Hawaii HB 1248 (2019) enacted mail voting across all counties for all elections and included a section allowing poll watchers to be present at voter service centers. 
  • Maryland SB 5 (2015) permitted authorized partisan and nonpartisan observers, and any others who wish to be present, to observe the canvass process. 
  • Virginia HB 319/SB 537 (2012) specified that partisan observers may be close enough to the voter check-in table to be able to hear what is being said, but that observation shall not violate the secret vote or otherwise interfere with the election. 

Our Turn.

We can’t leave this to others. We can at least try and get informed on what has been found, what has been done about it, and what more needs to be done.

We can make a difference.
And we must make a difference.

If you care about building a lasting and resilient nation, consider yourself on the job.
What would be the 5 bullet points in your status report for this week?


Twitterati, etc.

Andrew Paquette (mentioned above) is a refreshingly creative mind to engage with. His latest substack, “X marks the spot,” about trying to get to X, then Grok, might be an interesting read for those of us still trying to get in the gate. One of the replies also gives more ideas for what to try when wanting to open the door into their walled garden.

DEAR MAGA: Open Thread 20250220 & Handling Gold


Welcome.
Please visit this January 1st daily thread for the rules of the road,
which are few but important.

For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore,

Handling Gold.

Well, not really gold. But a process that is even more critical than handling precious metals, but let’s start there. The other day Steve was explaining how registered mail is handled and why precious metals dealers used registered mail due to the strict processes that are followed. The USPS handbook DM-901 covers all the details. It’s a nice document. Covers all the procedures, chain of custody, proper storage, how to document if seals are broken, etc. It’s almost like they are serious about handling registered mail.


What is more important than gold?

How about true and accurate elections that put into power those who legislate whether you get to keep your gold or not? Seems important.

Chain of Custody.

A key feature of the process of handling things of great value is called the Chain of Custody. Whether it is registered mail, election materials (ballots, equipment), or even evidence to be used in prosecuting a criminal case, unimpeachable Chain of Custody is essential.

The National Voting Rights Task Force says:

According to experts, the only way to know if an electronic vote total has been hacked is for voters to have separately recorded their intended selections on paper and for jurisdictions to then use the paper in a manual audit or recount, the results of which can be compared to the electronic total.

But even manual audits or recounts can be “hacked” if the selections on the paper have been marked by a machine, rather than the voter’s own hand.  And no matter how that paper is marked, manual audits and recounts can be gamed if the chain of custody between election night and the audit or recount has been compromised.

There are many resources for elections. One resource, the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is an independent, bipartisan commission whose mission is to help election officials improve the administration of elections and help Americans participate in the voting process. Their guidance, “Best Practices: Chain of Custody,” gives recommendations to election officials. “The chain of custody of ballots, voting equipment, and associated data is essential to ensure the election system remains trustworthy. Documentation of the chain of custody also provides evidence that all voting procedures were followed. It is a best practice for chain of custody procedures to be clearly defined in advance of every election, well documented and followed consistently throughout the entire election lifecycle or process. The key to an effective chain of custody is to have a set of procedures which are followed in practice. The procedures should be in writing with all steps documented.”

It may be important to note that I have yet to find any federal laws with guidance on the specifics of election materials chain of custody. A search of the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002 for the term “custody” does not yield any results. An internet search of “election laws chain-of-custody” provides guidance from various organizations (a good example here) and some links to individual Secretary of State websites. If there are federal laws, they are not easily found. Time didn’t permit for me to survey each state for specific chain of custody laws related to elections. It appears that a good number of groups that have public-facing sites with material related to the need for and the development of good practices for managing chain-of-custody.

However, when you get into actual county-by-county execution of these procedures the failures are all to common and even shocking. When regular citizens, concerned about their own local county’s handling of election materials simply asked for a copy of the chain of custody procedures in use during a specific election, the response was far from uniform. As anyone in any type of mission-critical work effort would expect, there needs to a least be: (1) a dated, documented procedure that is signed off before it is to be followed for a specific election and (2) checklists with spaces for signing off for the handling of items requiring chain of custody.

Even when a county is required by their state government to provide these prior to an election, the local elections offices sometimes could not provide these procedures when asked. One particular county office provided a non dated, unsigned document and stated that they weren’t sure which election it was for. Either they didn’t know what they were doing, they didn’t have the right person fulfilling the request, or something else. It seems like this would be posted right on their county elections office website (along with all the other elections documents!). In a number of counties that I know of, the elections office claimed there were “no records responsive to the request.” In other words, they are saying that they didn’t have the state mandated chain of custody procedures. How did they get the election certified without it? How did their Secretary of State sign off on the election without it?

Asking for public records, usually referred to as a freedom of information act (FOIA) request can be done by anyone. More recently the number of people taking it upon themselves to get involved in “citizen oversight” has grown to the point that some public officials have started complaining that all these requests are a form of harassment. Really? Why not just publicly publish all of it?

In one state it seems that a number of counties have hired the same particular law firm as “County Counsel” to advise on the handling of election matters. Unfortunately that liberal law firm seems to have been assisting counties to stone-wall access to public records. And in some cases the guidance given to the county board of supervisors was in fact unlawful. I’m not giving examples to prove my point, I’m just offering information that might be helpful to know if someone reading here is considering looking into how their elections are being handled where they live and vote.

In 2016 Bev Harris explained at her site, BlackBoxVoting.org:

Elections chain of custody refers to physical and electronic evidence controls for:

– who can vote
– who did vote
– actual ballots as marked by each voter, and
– evidence transfer and storage

:

Legitimate elections require public “right to know” (freedom of information) to allow the public and the media to authenticate truth of results. Proper chain of custody safeguards are part of the larger concept of political legitimacy.

:

Incurable uncertainty

Handling election records and data must be scrupulously careful in order to demonstrate to the public that there has been no tampering or contamination.

In court cases, chain of custody violations can result in refusal to admit evidence or even throwing a case out. In elections, chain of custody violations can result in “incurable uncertainty” and court orders to redo elections.

Bev Harris discovered election theft in 2002, wrote a book on it (download it here), advocated for change, and now others have carried on her work. The problems are not new, and they have probably grown worse. But now is the time for us to make our own local governments-that oversee the execution of elections–take note that we are asking questions, seeing problems and expecting better oversight. And for those who have been running elections, just knowing that more people are looking into their work appears to have led to some unexpected early retirements. I can’t say that is an indication of guilt, but it does seem significant.

We can’t leave this to others. We can at least try and get informed on what has been found, what has been done, and what more needs to be done. What do you know about elections and chain of custody. Please post your thoughts in the comments. Thanks

We can make a difference.
And we must make a difference.

If not us, who? If not now, when?
There has never been a better time.

Charity

Charity is patient, is kind; charity does not envy, is not pretentious, is not puffed up, is not ambitious, is not self-seeking, is not provoked; thinks no evil, does not rejoice over wickedness, but rejoices with the truth, bears with all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. (1 Cor. 13:4-7).

To have Charity is to love God above all things for Himself and be ready to renounce all created things rather than offend Him by serious sin. (Matt. 22:36-40)

DEAR MAGA: Open Thread 20250206 & the Scouring of the Shire

The Scouring of the Shire.

Reading and reflecting on Tolkien’s final chapter in The Lord of the Rings might help us place ourselves at this time. Fandom tells us: “Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin arrive in the Shire to find that things are not as they once were when they left. The Shire is now run by Sharkey based at Bag End, who with Lotho‘s help had taken over with his band of Ruffian Men. The four hobbits collect as many allies as they can and defeat his army of Ruffians at the Battle of Bywater. The Hobbits then confront “Sharkey” and the lowly Gríma Wormtongue at Bag End, who both meet their demise.”

So, while the noble hobbits had been off saving all of Middle Earth, the “commies” had set up shop in their homeland and caused great harm that will require bravery, wisdom, and a lot of work to undo. It appears that we are somewhere around the beginning of the Battle of Bywater now.

Do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.

For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore,
and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. — Galatians 5:1



We got our miracle.

Now what?

Thanks be to God for our 47th President, Donald J. Trump.


The Role of County Government in Elections.

Take a good look at that 2024 Election Map. See the outline of each county?


How Does This Work?

Let’s take a look at what the National Association of Counties (NACO) has to say

When trying to understand how to get traction locally in turning the tide for liberty, it seems to come down to the governance at the county level. And from what is being turned up with the groups I’m following, it looks a lot like there is state level and national level collusion to influence or control the governments of those 3,069 counties that are responsible for overseeing our elections. I’ll get into those details in another post.

Reading that overview from NACO, they start out by stating:

Elections in the United States are administered in a highly decentralized process through which each state shapes its own election laws

Well, mostly. The states shape their own election laws, but, as with anything else, federal laws also impose requirements on state and local governments. Maryland’s State Board of Elections gives a helpful overview of these major federal election laws here. The most recent election-related law passed by Congress is known as HAVA.

  • Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002
    This law was the U.S. Congress’ response to the 2000 Presidential election and the first time that the federal government authorized federal funds for election administration. It created the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) and set minimum standards for voting systems. It also required each state to adopt uniform standards on what constitutes a vote, implement provisional voting, post certain information at polling places, maintain a statewide voter registration database, and required certain individuals to show identification before voting.

Sounds good right?

Except. There are county elections officials are not following the laws, and yet are still taking the federal money to buy their electronic voting machines. If they didn’t follow the federal laws, then taking that money anyway would be fraud, right?

Thankfully, there are Americans that have stood up and gotten to work discovering and working to address the failures of our elections officials across the nation. I’d like to highlight one citizen oversight group that has done much with an all-volunteer organization.

We want valid elections that are run in full compliance with the law.

I strongly encourage you to watch this short video of a presentation by Marley Hornik of United Sovereign Americans. She goes over the legal framework for election integrity, starting with the constitution and provides the statute citations that must be enforced if we are to have free and fair elections. She also covers what they found when they audited the voter rolls of just 20 states prior to the 2024 election. They found over 29 MILLION apparently ineligible voter registrations, 10 million votes cast by those ineligible voters, 2 million more votes cast than voters that voted, and an average 13% vote error rate. Every invalid registration is potentially a felony level violation. Their organization is litigating with states over their failure to clean up the rolls and unlawful certification of non-compliant elections. They have a good strategy for which states to sue in order to potentially cause a circuit split which could get this heard at the Supreme Court without having to sue all 50 states. Or better yet, maybe the Department of Justice will just do their job.

Presentation by Marley Hornik of United Sovereign Americans
On the Status of our Nation’s Elections (for video click here)

The United Sovereign Americans Action Plan includes (1) informing everyone of election validity law, (2) turning findings into evidence, and (3) forcing election officials to obey the law.

Unfortunately, election officials across America have displayed apathy, disdain, and disregard for the law, and the civil rights of the people they are hired to serve. This has resulted in the certification of elections that varied from the law. Some of these elections were grossly inaccurate. Whether it was incompetence or malfeasance, those who broke the law must be held accountable.

Thank God for their work. May many more Americans join them in their efforts.

DEAR MAGA: Open Thread Thursday 20250130


Welcome.
Please visit this January 1st daily thread for the rules of the road,
which are few but important.


Header Image: 2024 Presidential Election Map by County

Do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.

These are the kind of powerful words that motivated America’s founding fathers to create the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore,
and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. — Galatians 5:1

It is going to require a decision on our part to “stand firm” and “not submit again” before we are going to begin to take this seriously. But we have the help of God and the intensely determined support of our President, his team, and untold numbers of our fellow citizens.



We got our miracle.
America is back.
Now what?

Let us dedicate ourselves to seeking our place in the cleansing, healing, and rebuilding of this beautiful, resource-rich nation. Are we to pray? Of course. Are we to vote? Absolutely.

But we know there is much to do and not all is certain. We might find ourselves asking, “What am I to do in these amazing days of transformation?” God will guide us.


Priorities.

The Trump-Vance Administration Priorities page @ WhiteHouse.gov provides us with the eagle’s eye view of where we are going. Notice the order of these priorities. Safety of the people first! May the Lord grant us wisdom, strength, and good success.

MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN

  • President Trump will take bold action to secure our border and protect American communities.
  • This includes ending Biden’s catch-and-release policies, reinstating Remain in Mexico, building the wall, ending asylum for illegal border crossers, cracking down on criminal sanctuaries, and enhancing vetting and screening of aliens.
  • President Trump’s deportation operation will address the record border crossings of criminal aliens under the prior administration.
  • The President is suspending refugee resettlement, after communities were forced to house large and unsustainable populations of migrants, straining community safety and resources.
  • The Armed Forces, including the National Guard, will engage in border security, which is national security, and will be deployed to the border to assist existing law enforcement personnel.
  • President Trump will begin the process of designating cartels, including the dangerous Tren de Aragua, as foreign terrorist organizations and use the Alien Enemies Act to remove them.
  • The Department of Justice will seek the death penalty as the appropriate punishment for heinous crimes against humanity, including those who kill law enforcement officers and illegal migrants who maim and murder Americans.

MAKE AMERICA AFFORDABLE AND ENERGY DOMINANT AGAIN

  • The President will unleash American energy by ending Biden’s policies of climate extremism, streamlining permitting, and reviewing for rescission all regulations that impose undue burdens on energy production and use, including mining and processing of non-fuel minerals.
  • President Trump’s energy actions empower consumer choice in vehicles, showerheads, toilets, washing machines, lightbulbs and dishwashers.
  • President Trump will declare an energy emergency and use all necessary resources to build critical infrastructure.

Twitterati.

Very recently I finally began to read in the X.com space. The platform is suspicious of me and therefore I do not have an account. Probably due to the basic efforts I’ve made to retain some level of privacy. Oh well.

The kind people here have shown me the way to view people’s feeds by using the Nitter.Poast.org site. It’s opened up a whole new world of information. Very helpful.

I have a new favorite follow. And I recommend her to you. Nicole Shanahan. She was RFK Jr’s running mate. She’s as informed, active and feisty as they come. Nicole Shanahan‘s feed is following the Senate confirmations and a LOT more.

For fresh news on our J6 people and a lot more, Julie Kelly might be the place to visit.


Prayer.

God Bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, My home sweet home.


KMAG 20250122 Open Thread & Operation Gladio


SYNOPSIS:

In this article I explain WHY we need to continue to remain alert. Yeah, it is actually much worse than we thought. I know this is long, but if you read none of the other articles I have written please read this one. For me, everything suddenly fell in place. This is why Hegseth, a major in the reserves and NOT a general or admiral was selected as Sec of Defense by POTUS Trump. Why the cartels were named terrorist organizations.

At the end of WWII the Nazis realized they were not going to win a CONVENTIONAL kinetic war so they switched tactics. Stay behind units, groups of 15 to 20 civilians, were originally created in Germany by Nazis. They were called Werewolf Units and placed in all the AXIS countries. At the Nuremberg trials, Skorzeny, who worked for never-indicted Galland, got off lightly. He features prominently in training and in execution of operations including the murder of JFK. And yes they are here and active in the USA. Some of their training is done at Fort Bragg. (SURPRISE!) Galland, who was Hitler’s Chief of intel, met with Dulles at the end of WWII and got off scot free. As a result of that meeting, stay behind units were seeded in other countries AND it is all run out of NATO. This is why Nazi war criminals became high ranking commanders in NATO after WW2. Also there is a secret agreement. If you become a NATO member you must have stay behind units. It is the reason Charles de Gaulle kicked NATO headquarters out of France. They kept trying to assassinate him. Werewolf Units have about 15 playbooks including Paragliders. Music festivals and other venues with a lot of women and children are considered ‘HIGH VALUE TARGETS’ because they have a maximum terror component that can then be used to control a population. (9/11 & the Patriot Act anyone?)

Just a taste from Colonel Towner at the end of Operation Gladio – Colonel Towner PART 1 The full transcript is at the bottom of the article. Please read it. It will blow your mind!

I’ll cover this real quick. We [The Werewolf Units] had to have training right? Even though Skorzeny had trained the units in the axis countries you had the allied operators that needed Gladio training. So off the coast of Portugal [are islands] like the Azores, Canary Islands, the Sardinia Islands, they all end up with Gladio training sites…. Just do a search on Sardinia and kidnapping. There are inordinate amount of kidnappings because what these people do is they practice on real people. OK? If you do the Canary Islands? That is where the sniper and snorkeling – sneaking up on boats — [training happens.] Do you know who was assassinated off the coast of the Canary Islands? Robert Maxwell. When he came up missing his boat was docked at the Canary Islands. I want to give at least the enlisted a pass. A lot of the Gladio training was done at Fort Bragg [NC] and Fort Benning. [Columbus, Georgia, Alabama border area] And there was an explosive school just north of the Rio Grande above Brownsville TX. 👉The assassination [training] was done at Fort Bragg.👈

(time 1:20:30)

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I was watching an excellent episode of Breaking History and realized, we here at the Qtree had never identified the driving philosophy of the Cabal. I am not talking Marxism or Malthusianism (De-population) I am talking about the actual philosophy that drives the Cabal and has for centuries.

I do not have the actual name for it, Mercantilism is as close as I can come.

The feudal economic system was replaced by mercantilism in Western Europe and it became the dominant theory between 1500 and 1800. While England was at the epicentre of the British Empire, they unfortunately had limited natural resources and were eager to increase their wealth. During this period, there was [more] frequent military conflict and tension than before. Every government’s main objective was to back their military base to prevent attacks from other nations whilst also expanding their territory and the only way to do so was to earn sufficient money.

Mercantilists [AND BANKERS] took up this opportunity to persuade their governments to enact policies that would protect their own businesses against foreign [AND DOMESTIC] ones. In exchange, they would pay taxes to back the military. This resulted in the introduction of fiscal policies that were against the colonists which banned them from buying foreign items. All nations wanted to export more than they imported and receive bullion in return as they strongly believed that a nation’s economic health could be weighed by comparing how much they owned in precious metals. Shipping was also considered imperative during the mercantile period as they were used for merchant or military purposes and whoever controlled the oceans was deemed the strongest.

Colonial Manufacturing Restrictions – (dead link)

Colonial manufacturing restrictions refer to the laws and regulations imposed by colonial powers, particularly Britain,👉to control and limit the manufacturing capabilities of their colonies.👈

Dead link is: https://fiveable.me/key-terms/american-business-history/colonial-manufacturing-restrictions


Mercantilism and the Colonies of Great Britain

…mercantilism became the key economic model of the time. It encouraged the colonists to purchase goods from England rather than rival nations. 👉 The colonies sent raw materials to England where they were manufactured into finished products and sold to the colonists.👈 This allowed Britain to monopolize the slave trade, transporting slaves from English ports to America. High inflation and heavy taxation on the colonies caused a rift between the colonists and the British...

Essentially what you have is merchants, manufacturers and bankers working together to MAXIMIZE PROFIT. (World Economic Forum anyone?) Once you no longer have overt colonies, the best way to do that is to use wars, coups & the IMF to keep the 3rd world enslaved as raw material providers. Then you can use CHEAP labor in China & India to do the manufacturing in Cabal owned factories so the manufactured products can be sold, at a steep mark-up of course, to the first world middle class, slowly bankrupting them.

Heck the IMF even documents this wealth transfer!

The September 2012 IMF Report, World Economy: Convergence, Interdependence, and Divergence Finance & Development shows how far along the Cabal’s plan has gotten.

New convergence and strengthened interdependence coincide with a third trend, relating to income distribution. In many countries the distribution of income has become more unequal, and the top earners’ share of income in particular has risen dramatically. 👉In the United States the share of the top 1 percent has close to tripled over the past three decades, now accounting for about 20 percent of total U.S. income👈 (Alvaredo and others, 2012). At the same time, while the new convergence mentioned above has reduced the distance between advanced and developing economies when they are taken as two aggregates, there are still millions of people in some of the poorest countries whose incomes have remained almost stagnant for more than a century (see “More or Less,” F&D, September 2011). 👉These two facts have resulted in increased divergence between the richest people in the world and the very poorest, despite the broad convergence of average incomes.👈

The actual mechanism is the World Bank lends a country money. When the country defaults on the loan then the IMF steps in with their Structural Adjustment Programs. This link shows how the IMF implements their wealth transfer: IMF Structural Adjustment Programs

If a country does not ‘cooperate’ then the Cabal stages a coup.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

One of the key weapons the Cabal has used during the past century is Operation Gladio.

I want to stop at this point and point to this video that shows WHY Israel has been used to keep the Middle East in turmoil for nearly a century. War is a heck of a good way to prevent a country from developing a manufacturing base and having a chance of becoming a first world economy! Gore Bull Schiff Warming is the excuse fed to anyone on the Left who might notice this deliberate suppression of third world countries. It is also the excuse fed to the public for destroying first world countries.

Breaking history: Ep. 79: Breaking Free of Scarcity with NAWAPA and New Discoveries. The whole episode is good but you can start @ 40 minutes for the progress report.


Starting at 40 minutes, they go thru the massive water projects planned for the USA — passed into law in 1954 but side lined after JFKs death. — In China – dams are being built as we speak – and in Saudi Arabia — they are also being built. Water is a key necessity for not only Ag, but for industry. In the USA dams are targeted for destruction not creation. They also talk about Saudi Arabia’s breakthrough in producing lithium and other minerals from the waste water from oil fracking. The new technology is viable and being shared with Brazil.

If there is war, none of this could be done. ENTER OPERATION GLADIO

BACKGROUND

If you read the Prussiagate series and my Spies, Spooks, Snakes and The Sea Eye Aye it becomes clear the Nazis, NATO and the CIA are tied at the hip.

If you are at least aware of Mike Benz work on Cyberwarfare….

And aware of 5th generation warfare…

General Mike Flynn explains 5th generation warfare (Epoch Times 5 minute clip)

….

And are aware of The Network of Global Corporate Control

 …we find that only 737 top holders accumulate 80% of the control over the value of all TNCs [Trans National Corporations] …This means that network control is much more unequally distributed than wealth. In particular, the top ranked actors hold a control ten times bigger than what could be expected based on their wealth…

…In detail, nearly 4/10 of the control over the economic value of TNCs in the world is held, via a complicated web of ownership relations, by a group of 147 TNCs in the core, which has almost full control over itself. The top holders within the core can thus be thought of as an economic “super-entity” in the global network of corporations. A relevant additional fact at this point is that 3/4 of the core are financial intermediaries….

….

Then Operation Gladio slides into place very nicely as the explanation. I am going to jump ahead to the first part of the 2nd in the series, to show how Operation Gladio fits into what we are seeing today.


OPERATION GLADIO – PART 2 “RELEVANCE” 


Rough Transcript from 6:30 to 12 minutes.

The 2020 election was a cyber coup. Mike Benz spent 5-6 yrs investigating it and talks about the cyber end of it NAMING the culprits: NATO, EU, UK, CIA, the Defense Department, the State Department. Colonel Towner says those are who she is going to talk about. The exact same people Mike says are involved in the Cyber War. Operation Gladio has been taken Kinetic. [Think Purple Revolution -GC] Mike is looking at the CYBER component of Operation Gladio within the USA. [General Mike Flynn calls it 5th Generation Warfare. -GC]

The Colonel says if you Read Gen Flynn’s book on 5th Generation Warfare, lay that side by side with the Tucker interview with Mike Benz AND you have the background on Operation Gladio, It is CLEAR EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING!

Operation Gladio & Colonel Towner PART 1 –February 13, 2023


Rough Transcript of this 1 hr, 45 minute video. I included rough time stamps too.

6:30

Synopsis of her bio:

Colonel Towner enlisted in the Air Force in 1979 right out of high school. She is mechanically inclined so work on airplanes. She was in for 8 yrs as an enlisted grunt, after 6 yrs she got a military scholarship and went to Indiana Univ. During that time she had a job with Evergreen airlines who had a contract with UPS. She was the only female mechanic but the guys found out a small female fits in spaces they do not.

When she finished her degree, the Air Force made her a personnel officer. (She was hoping for maintenance officer.) She was assigned to LA air force base in late 80s, during Star Wars. Nastar now GPS had just been declassified for civilian use. Put up a bunch of satellites. Re-asigned to Italy, Andrews AFB where Air Force 1 is. Whenever the pentagon went down to CENTCOM, US central Command, they used Andrews AFB. She was there over 9-11.

She got her masters at Air War college…. She was in for 30 yrs then retired. The she started watching Glen Beck and “realized everything I thought was true, was not true.”

Colonel Towner: “I am a big reader. I already had 2-300 books… Because my entire reason for enlisting was to get a college degree, at the end I had 6 degrees because I just like learning and they were free thanks to the tax payer. My idea was to give that information back… And to use my experience and education to help others understand what is going on in the world. You find out we have been lied to about everything. I now have about 800 books in my library….

You can see God’s hand in everything that I do because I will go from one book [she does videos of her book reviews] and in talking about that book, someone will say something that triggers something else and I will get another book and another book and another book. And they all seem to cohesively — and the weird thing is they are ALWAYS PERFECTLY TIMED WITH WHAT’S GOING ON IN THE WORLD.

What you just heard in the Tucker Carlson – Putin interview? Putin was telling you about Operation Gladio without using the name.

Both the 2004 ‘Revolution’ in Ukraine was Operation Gladio and the 2014 coup in Ukraine while people do not use that term. We will go thru some terms so you have them in the back of your mind. Because once you learn the language of what’s going on, you can’t NOT SEE IT. (12:00)

After the spaces [on X], Jack Posobic talks of Operation Gladio for the very first time. I do not think that is coincidental. And the next day, he goes on Bannon’s War Room and mentions it again. But he mentions it in a limited hangout way, because not only does he mispronounce it, which is a dead giveaway, but he infers that it is a Gladio 2.0 [Jack was not tossed off Twitter or Youtube, which is another tell. –GC]

There is only one Gladio and one organization that runs it world wide….

Epstein

“I read 2 books by  Whitney Webb, One Nation Under Blackmail vol 1 & 2 before I found out about Operation Gladio. When I read my 10th book about Operation Gladio, I was in a podcast and one of the girls who helps me do research put in the Chat, “We should do Whitney Webb’s book” Light bulb goes on and I say, Oh my gosh, that whole book is Gladio! I do book reviews on each book I read on Gladio, multi-chapter, We talk about each chapter…. We went back to do One Nation Under Blackmail, and when doing the 1st couple of chapters. She goes back to WWII and the OSS days when Gladio was created. AND IT’S ALL THE SAME PLAYERS every single step of the way.

Epstein & Wexner… I will just say this because it will be the tie in. When you realize the air operations, you and I were talking about. That contracted air that was set up in Columbus Ohio? It was done by the remnants of the Flying Tigers of the OSS out of Vietnam. It was also done in conjunction with Clinton and China selling small arms inside the USA. As soon as Congress forbid that, the air hub at Columbus Ohio exploded. There were flights coming from Hong Kong AND Clinton gave them their OWN two custom terminals. So every aspect of Operation Gladio, was fulfilled.

The Problem is until you know what the skeleton of Operation Gladio looks like. And you build the skeleton of Gladio, [for example] Whitney Webb does not know what Operation Gladio is. It is not mentioned in her book. She has no idea she is sitting on a powder keg. That is what you will find going forward. Once you have the framework you will see it everywhere. Because it is LITERALLY EVERYWHERE.

[Alpha talks of his Veterans show SitRep]

….The Vatican Church figures heavily in Gladio. They were a money laundering outfit for Gladio. Two of my best researchers I lost, they were both Catholic. They did not want to hear it. [Unfortunately this is a major problem. Having the veil ripped down so the filth and corruption shows is just too much for some people. — GC]

There is no one whose rice bowl got peed in more than Veterans. Because when you realize, every single mission you have been on more than likely in support of what I refer to as the International Syndicate, than it ever was for the USA that we, you & I, swore an oath to. [I call it the Cabal. -GC]

For People who were on the battle field and actually killed people, dropped bombs? To understand that you could have done that for an entity that has nothing to do with the safety and security of your country is devastating. BUT at the same time what you cannot do, is you cannot allow it to continue. So the only way we can fight is with truth. [THIS BTW is why Janet Napolitano & DHS labeled Veterans as potential Domestic Terrorists. They are a danger to the Cabal. — GC]

We have to know what the truth is, and once we understand what the truth is we can make sure it does not perpetuate itself. That’s why I am here. [AMEN! and that is why I do these articles – GC]

Every single thing I talk about has already been proven. It is not a theory. It is not a Conspiracy.

I am very picky about the authors I use. I want to see the State Dept. cables, I want to see the financial transactions. The ones I base my book reviews on have all that documentation. That is important because everything I say from here is highly controversial but it is all factual unfortunately.

I am going to start with terminology. The first thing you have to remember, because you are going to see these terms often in the future. So when you see them in the future your brain should immediately go OPERATION GLADIO.

Operation Gladio is an umbrella term. There are sub-elements of it. One of which is Operation Condor. Operation Condor was the Gladio effort dedicated strictly to South America.

Compass Rose was the initial effort of Operation Gladio that was launched inside of Europe.They were also referred to as stay behind units.

A Stay behind unit was a group of 15 to 20 civilians. As originally created in Germany by Nazis. They were called Werewolf Units. They carried that term from 1942 to the end of the war. They were civilians by day and killers by night. You are going to hear Werewolf a whole lot more in the future including Neo-Nazis in the USA.

The training squad in Ukraine from the US Air Force, right now training pilots, is called Grey Wolves, which is the operator Gladio from Turkey. The Neo-nazis in the USA today call themselves Werewolves because they are configured just like stay behind units.

In addition to having the personnel, and they were all trained, there are some designated training sites. You [Alpha] as a marine may recognize some of the sites because our special operations trained a lot of these people unbeknownst to them as they were ‘joint training’ in Europe. [Not suprising given Nazi war criminals became high ranking commanders in NATO after WW2 — GC]

They had stashes of weaponry to include; small arms, explosives, money and com equipment. They would bury them in chests. They would bury them in national parks systems that could be secured. Often times off limits to the normal foot traffic. That is true in the USA too BTW.

I watched a 2 hr documentary of an investigate journalist who went thru Holland trying to find these stay behind unit stashes. He spent 4 years looking. They found tons of them. I even asked the guy who brought it to my attention if he could translate so I could put subtitles on it. I posted it on my Twitter Acct…. In Italy alone there were over 600 of these stashes. Over 600 stay behind units with 15 to 20 people in each one. That is how massive it is.

It is also referred to as ‘Strategy of Tension’ It is important to understand this concept. The world we live in today operates on a strategy of tension. Most people do not know enough history to realize that if you look at a world map of 1910 and you look at a world map of 1950 there are a lot of ‘made-up countries’ that did not exist in 1910.

Well Putin just told you. Ukraine was made up out of whole cloth. There was no Ukraine. There was Poland and there was Russia. Look at the 1910 map of the Middle East. There was a country that no longer exists called Kurdistan. Well what happen to Kurdistan? Well the geniuses at the end of WWII decided that we are needed to break up Kurdistan and put the pieces in Turkey, Syria, Northern Iraq and Northern Iran. So where is all the conflict? Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. Why is that? Because of the strategy of tension.

Pakistan did not exist in 1910. Where do we have a lot of Schiff going on? Afghanistan and India! Why? Because of Pakistan.

The International Syndicate [Cabal] decided to make up countries out of whole cloth. Taking what they KNEW to be fault lines, so they could create a perpetual War Machine to terrorize people, generate refugees – Called Human Trafficking – and forever establish the Military Industrial Complex that would be used to manipulate the world from the end of WWII until today. [I would say it was set up in 1913 if not well before. -GC]

We have never NOT KNOWN WAR. All of this has to do with this same concept. It is all done on purpose.

The Kurdish people over time had congregated into a geographic location because they were ostracized. They were not Muslim as we know Muslim. I was in Iraq for 6 months and talked to a lot of the Kurdish leaders because I was the exec officer for a 2 star Army general that ran Taskforce Bravo that was all of Northern Iraq during the 1991 conflict. So I spent a lot of time with these guys. It is almost a mix between Christianity & Islam. So they are not liked by anybody. So they kinda congregated in a location and then after WWII they sliced it all up and Well it would be like pouring acid on your body. So they created a scab, and the UK and USA pick that scab whenever they want to.

And they did this all over the world. So it is important they you understand ‘Strategy of Tension.’

In Italy it is know as the years of lead because of the lead bullets. When ever they activate these terror units, you get a lot of dead bodies. Journalists who write about it die, Judges that adjudicate it die, prosecutors that prosecute it die and obviously the victims of the explosions, the train stations, the banks… ALL over Italy lots of dead bodies.

And my last term… All of this system was set up under “ANTI-COMMUNISM”

As Putin pointed out and Tucker afterwards, the Soviet Union and now when it is Russia, they have never been an aggression focused nation. But the instigators set up the Soviet Union and then Russia as a bogyman, to terrorize their own population via the stay behind Gladios Units. They sold this concept, a little bit in the public but primarily to the under levels of the government. The senior levels knew what they were going to use it for. That it was going to be used for domestic use. But for the rest of the people, it was sold under the guise that it was Anti-Communist.

So just in case those Soviet people come over the gap and invade Europe, we have all these stay behind units that will pop-up and kill them all.

But if you start looking into the Anti-communist league, and anti-communist anything. They had anti-communist non-profits. Every single one of them is saturated with CIA agents, MI6 agents and MOSSAD agents. They are front companies, non-profits having to do with orchestrating Domestic Violence and ZERO to do with anti-communist. So when ever you hear anti-communist the hair on the back of your neck should stand up. You need to look at the board of directors, everything about them because it will be sketchy as hell.

The International Syndicate

When I first started doing this, if I said something about the Vatican or the Catholic Bank, I would get inundated with these bots – OH it is the Jesuits.

If I say anything about MOSSAD – Oh it’s the fake Jews or the Khazarian Mafia.

I do not know if any of that is true and it means ZERO to me. It is a limited hangout. You have already reached the conclusion without doing the investigation.

I call the industrialists, the bankers, the politicians, the elites and the religious organizations The International Syndicate. I have not gotten into who they are. I will get into a little bit of the theory that drives the entire thing because that is important to understand. Naming names at this point is not important and it bogs you down from understanding the apparatus.

ALPHA: If you know their names, they are not it.

The Colonel: Everything you see is a cloaking device for the people you don’t see.

The life cycle ( Business model)

600+ stashes plus the 15 – 20 people per stash, ready at a moments notice , that costs money. This is a big budget item. Well there is no money on the appropriations side so this is all black [off the books] funded.

[HMMMmmm Is this where some of the ‘LOST’ Pentagon billions went? -GC]

So how are you going to make the money. Initially the choice was selling drugs. Where are you going to get the drugs? Poppy fields. Just follow our wars. Every place we have had a war is a source of poppy fields.

…During veterans day, don’t the banks HAND OUT RED POPPIES?

ALPHA: I never thought about that! [Q said watch for the symbols – GC]

The military is there to guard the poppy fields. Most countries do not want the stuff in their country so you have to have wars. With wars you have mil equip ==> war zone & then drugs come back on the empty planes. [Or as Dr MacDonald found, in the dead bodies. GC] This is all documented BTW

Guns, fighter jets, helicopters, they don’t make it to where they are supposed to go . And then the items show up on black market. (37 min)

War makes a lot of ‘refuges’ so they can sell people too. They sell, drugs, weapons, human trafficking, this is what pays for Operation Gladio. People with a conscious get blackmailed (more money) Think Epstein. They are ALL tied to this business model. (39 min)

Stay behind units were first used in Boer wars in S. Africa in late 1800s. Boers were Dutch (and native) farmers. Then the Brits came down a bit further south. They started mining found diamonds & gold in Rhodesia. Think Cecil Rhodes & Milner Round Table. They wanted the gold found in S. Africa so they sent in the British military.

At the time Winston Churchill was a reporter with the Brit Army. They got their butts kicked by stay behind units. The Boers set up buried arms dumps. So during the second Boer war the Brits set up concentration camps to put women and children in and then they killed EVERYONE! The Brits were the first to use concentration camps. (41 min)

Rio Tinto (British) is a massive worldwide mining outfit. It uses slave labor. (41:45) They are a massive conglomerate that ruins everything they touch.

….

Rio Tinto (corporation) – Wikipedia

Rio Tinto Group is a British-Australian multinational company that is the world’s second largest metals and mining corporation (behind BHP). It was founded in 1873 when a group of investors purchased a mine complex on the Rio Tinto, in Huelva, Spain.…

….

The best example I have run across is in Brazil. The CIA under Operation Condor staged a coup in Brazil. Prior to the coup, there were 50-60 businesses, all owned by wealthy Brazilians. It was the ‘Democracy’ they [the Cabal -GC] all say they want. BUT they were not under the thumb of the UK or the USA… They did not have control of their industries. So they staged a coup. After the coup the big conglomerates [network of transnational corporations GC] came in. Then there were only seven Brazilian owned companies. [After Reagan’s leveraged buyouts and the ratification of the WTO the USA saw something similar. -GC]

That is the reason they are doing what they are doing and they do not care how many people they kill in the process. PEOPLE ARE EXPENDABLE AS LONG AS THEY GET CONTROL.

Where they are going with this, and what Winston Churchill was feeding is this Fabian Society, one world government, London School of Economics, Balfour Agreement, all of those people got together and they decided we are going to have one government in the world and we will control it at the Round Table. You are going to have a Pan America, you are going to have a Pan Europe, you are going to have a Pan Asia, you are going to have a British Empire. Eventually the pan Arabic leg of it was added.. But there is no pan Africa because all those people in the syndicate think that Black people are inferior and will always be slaves. That is why when they started selling drugs in the USA every shipment was focused on inner city blacks…. They started off in Harlem, moved to LA, moved to San Francisco, to Baltimore, to St Louis, every inner city black was to be hooked on drugs and they were going to use them to imprison them. This is the mentality of the people were are dealing with. They are the scum of the earth.

This why you have to understand why they do what they do, where their focus is, and how they do it. Because in the future, … When I saw that Oct 7th Hamas attack? That was a Gladio operation.. We will talk about it later but, Hamas was created and funded by the US CIA and Israel’s Mossad.

ALPHA: When I was a young detective and first started learning about Gangs, esp out here in CA you hear about the Bloods and the Crips. But talk about gov’t officials being the ones to start this,…

Colonel Towner: Oh I can even tell you the names!, I have articles pinned. We can get into the details probably in the second show. I can give you the names of the CIA agents that were focusing on this and the DEA agent ?Anglinger? Or what ever. The first guy who was in charge of the precursor of the DEA, he is on record saying, that every major drug bust that they did, they were never able to get the top echelon because they were ALL CIA AGENTS! EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. The ones who get arrested and held accountable are the low level guys. Wait til I get to the ‘War on Drugs’ (47 Min)

The second stage of all of this for me was figuring out — Well I have got who is doing it, this British Fabian round Table Crowd. So how did Communism and Fascism enter into the picture? You have to go back and read Antony C. Sutton’s books “Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution” and “Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler” and “Wall Street and FDR: The True Story of How Franklin D. Roosevelt Colluded with Corporate America” I highly recommend reading his trilogy, they are not that thick.

There is an address in NYC called 120 Broadway. It is where the Fed was, it was where FDRs first office was, the Boys Club, the Dinner Club, the Rockefellers’ office is, the Rothschilds, the banks, JP Morgan, They are ALL in this building. They orchestrate EVERYTHING out of this building. They do not have to go out side. They funded the Bolsheviks.

Trotsky lived in NYC for several years waiting for the war to end so he could plant the Bolshevik flag.… The Russian civil war in the early 1900s was actually instigated. The were generals that wanted a national referendum, a democracy. Well that was not going to be allowed. Those generals were murdered by people who came from the USA or Britain. The money for the Bolsheviks came from 120 Broadway and London UK. London housed Lenin, NYC, housed Trotsky. Trotsky went from USA to Canada to Russia on a State Department Visa. [When Canada tried to stop him, the USA intervened -GC] Lenin left London went thru Germany, thru Finland into Russia. London & US facilitated the creation of Bolshevik “Communism.” (50 min)

They did the same thing with Nazism. When Hitler is in prison, Do you know who ‘paid’ to help him write Mein Kempf? We did! We took money from 120 Broadway. Anthony Sutton has the actual transactions because they were carried in diplomatic pouches thru the State Department to transfer the money to pay for his ‘Aide’ to write that doctrine. The Reichstadt fire was a false flag…. It was all set up to create Marshall law and usher in Hitler….

I say that because it is important to understand under the Strategy of Tension, if you don’t have chaos and control, then you cannot manipulate people…. So if I can make you really scared of Nazism…

Why do they call that Far-Right? Fascism is not on the right.

If I draw a line. At the start is anarchy with no government, then comes a republic with a very small amount of government. Then you have democracy and then fascism, communism and totalitarianism. There is NOTHING far right about fascism. So Why do they call it that? That is psychological operations. (52 min)

👉 Because what you have over here in anarchy and a republic is NATIONALISM. And it is not coincidental that they call them [the NAZIs] nationalists, in order for you to associate you standing up for your country, and Putin being a nationalist for Russia and Trump being a nationalist for the USA as Nationalism as in FASCISM. (53 min)

They want you, in your brain, to correlate nationalism with fascism because NATIONALISM is the death spiral, stab in the heart, to Global World Order.👈

Because there is nothing about fascism that is on the right side of anything. And it is not coincidental that when you label Left and Right in the USA that the Republicans became the Fascist ‘Right’ and the Democrats became the Communist Left. That is ALL Psychological Operations to mess with your head. Because we know, as quasi libertarian small government conservative, WE ARE NOT NAZIs! We love our country. But it is important that they label you that [NAZIs] So just keep that in mind.

That is the kind of stuff you discover when you read these books. It is all a mind game for them… It is to isolate you and to attack you.

Colonel Towner: My husband pointed out that the TV program ‘Get Smart’ [Created by Mel Brooks & Buck Henry -GC] had the two organizations called KAOS and CONTROL and was telling you to ‘Get Smart’ Strategy of Tension? MIND BLOWING! That is what they are actually doing. They create chaos (the bad guy) to get control supposedly the good guy. They are creating chaos to get control of you and they are using the Strategy of Tension to do it.

We know, thru operation Paperclip, that the CIA has programming discretion thru out Hollywood. It will really blow your mind if we get to Laurel Canyon and the whole 1960s movie industry THAT DID NOT EXIST. The movie industry was in New York. They [CIA] went to southern California and created the movie industry lock, stock and barrel.

ALPHA: WHAAAAaaat!

Colonel Towner: In Laurel Canyon. That was an entire CIA operation AND I CAN PROVE IT!

I will send you a link that you can share with your viewers. There is a guy who wrote a series of articles on this that is the best work I have ever seen. He wrote a book that you can read online.

[In the 1960s] Every single musician, go back and look at them, their Dad was either in the CIA or the military. How did they get out of the draft? OH, because they were already employed.

This journey has been SO MIND BLOWING TO ME. Every day, I have a couple of researchers helping me on stuff. We are working on domestic Gladio Units right now. Hands down it will blow your mind.

ALPHA: This makes me re-evaluate everyone who got out of the Draft good or bad.

Colonel Towner: When we get to WWII and they are setting-up these gladio units, there was a General Wolfe who worked for General Galland who was Hitler’s Chief of intel. [Although there is nothing said about that on the internet -GC]

The reason I say we did not win WWII, was because of a decision made around 1942.

…..

Colonel Towner makes it clear that this is her theory, based on what she has read:

If you under stand Operational War Plans, you have a strategic level, an operational level and a tactical level. The strategy is ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. That is the goal. They wanted Germany to be in charge of the New World Order at that time. The Operational Level was how to go about doing that. And the Tactical Level is the kinetic level. They realized the Kinetic level was not going to be a winnable solution.

So if I change my operational focus to infiltrating the world; with all my Nazi scientists, all my Nazi operators like Skorzeny and thru Gladio; if I can get the apparatus built at the Operational level, then I can effect a one world government at the tactical level with my Gladio units. I can coup any government in the world. I can bring in my international syndicate [aka transnational corporations] to take over all of their resources. I can get as rich as I want. I can control the entire world without firing another shot in a conventional war.

In my mind, this is what I have been building towards the more I learn, because you see a drastic change in the war in 1942. With these stay behind units and the filtering out of them after the war is ‘officially’ over. The distribution of the Nazis, and not all of them are scientists. There is just so much to that.

When the change of focus occurs in Germany in 1942, they create the very first Werewolf Units and put them in all of the Axis territories. Now we get to the end of the war. Galland arranges a meeting with Allen Dulles. Allen Dulles is the OSS commander for the European theater under Wild Bill Donovan. Dulles meets with Galland and they come to an agreement. Galland gets to stay free. They are going to bring Galland in a 4 star uniform with fake documents to the USA. They will de-brief him. They will scout out all the stay behind units and networks in the Axis territories and they are going to take them over. They create the ‘mirror’ in alley countries AND it will all be run out of NATO.

There are two organizations in NATO that are the planning and funding coordinators for Operation Gladio. One of which is called the ACC. It is a highly classified organization. Most people assigned to NATO do not know it exists. It is documented in Paul William’s book Operation Gladio. And also mentioned in Daniele Ganser’s book NATO’s Secret Armies: Operation Gladio and Terrorism in Western Europe

…In 1990, when Gladio got exposed in Italy, Italy is the only country that did an exhaustive investigation and exposed it. One of the things that came out on the magic date of Aug 2nd when it all got revealed, is there was a meeting in NATO of Gladio participants in Oct of 1990. They had the meeting despite the blow-up in Italy, probably to mitigate or cover-up. In Nov, reports paint Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti as the king pin in Italy. Well he is not going down alone. As soon as fingers were pointed at Andreotti, reporters start asking their politicians, what do you know about Gladio. Andreotti calls a press conference and on national TV in Italy, he says OH, pol XXX doesn’t know anything about Gladio? He was at the meeting last month. He named names and by doing so verified that NATO was the coordinator of ALL of it and they were the ones who hosted the planning meetings.

WHY was that hidden from the USA who was the primary funder of NATO?

[Alpha mentions the soldier who would not wear the UN uniform. — GC]

Colonel Towner says you will find enlisted special forces US military personnel, posing as mercenaries and fighting along side the CIA. The CIA posing as soldiers…. She then said the Covid Clot Shot was another litmus test. It was about getting rid of Patriotic Soldiers. It was a cleansing of the US military. In anticipation of what I do not know….. (1:09:00)

Skorzeny worked for Galland, 3 or 4 levels down. He features prominently in training and in execution of operations including the murder of JFK. He trained stay behind units. Hitler called him to rescue Mussolini. [Skorzeny rescued Mussolini ] Well they have about 15 playbooks. The one Skorzeny pulled of the shelf that day was PARAGLIDERS… think Hamas on October 7th. This has been used more than once in Gladio Operations around the world. They are trained to do this in isolated areas. Also they love attacking music venues because, from a psychological operation perspective, killing women and children are your high value target. This is because you get the emotional terror associated with it. If you want emotional trauma in your strategy of tension, you go for women and children every time… (1:11:11)

[….Discussion of soft targets like fairs & festivals where guns are forbidden…. -GC]

👉Skorzeny at Nuremberg? A guy from the UK testifies on his behalf and gets him off. A guy from Dallas Texas prepared his defense AND the same guy played a roll in the JFK assassination. (1:16:10)

In Paul William’s book, they established that in order for a NATO country to become a part of NATO, there is actually a separate secret agreement. You HAVE TO agree to create stay behind units. 👉I want everyone to understand, if you are in NATO you HAVE stay behind units and there are no exceptions. (1:17:00)

Also…. NATO did not start in Belgium. NATO was set up in Paris. Why don’t we know this? Well the first thing you would ask is why did they move? You want to know why they moved? Because they were kicked out. Because of stay behind units. They were kicked out of [France] because the OAS that eventually gets Kennedy, tried to kill Charles de Gaulle, who was the president, over 20 times. They set up over 20 assassination attempts IN FRANCE OF THE SITTING PRESIDENT! And finally deGaulle calls the NATO commander and says you’ve got 6 months dude, your OUT and I want YOU gone tomorrow. I want EVERYTHING GONE IN SIX MONTHS, and you are gone tomorrow. DeGaulle kicked the 4 star general out. And that 4 star general? He was the author of Operation Northwoods [Cuba] So he ran the ops to get DeGaulle and ALSO ran the ops to get JFK!…. (1:19:00)

So that sets the stage for the new operations, because most of it now is going to be ran by Skorzeny out of Spain…

I’ll cover this real quick. We [The Werewolf Units] had to have training right? Even though Skorzeny had trained the units in the axis countries you had the allied operators that needed Gladio training. So off the coast of Portugal [are islands] like the Azores, Canary Islands, the Sardinia Islands, they all end up with Gladio training sites…. Just do a search on Sardinia and kidnapping. There are inordinate amount of kidnappings because what these people do is they practice on real people. OK? If you do the Canary Islands? That is where the sniper and snorkling – sneaking up on boats [training happens] Do you know who was assassinated off the coast of the Canary Islands? Robert Maxwell. When he came up missing his boat was docked at the Canary Islands.

I want to give at least the enlisted a pass. A lot of the Gladio training was done at Fort Bragg [NC] and Fort Benning. [Columbus, Georgia, Alabama border area] And there was an explosive school just north of the Rio Grande above Brownsville TX. A lot of the Gladio trainees got ‘Specialized Training’ — on ‘Wetworks’ Primarily the assassination [training] was done at Fort Bragg. (1:20:30 – 1:21:30)

So it is not uncommon to have foreigners in classes. We teach foreigners all the time. You would not know they are Gladio operators. They can show up in uniforms even if they are civilians. Governments dress them up in uniforms to camouflage the fact they are civilians and send them to our schools for training. [My Ex, attending Officer training at Fort Sill, just after ‘Nam said they had Israelis and Arabs in his OTC classes. — GC]

Also favorite training sites were done under World Wildlife Fund [WWF.] The World Bank would lend money to African countries [they knew they could not pay back.] Get them on the hook and tell them, we will forgive that loan for ‘preservations’. [Property the WWF turned into ‘Wildlife Preserves’] Thus they would get large swaths of wooded land and set up Gladio Training camps. So every time you see WWF know it is a front organization for GLADIO. They did this a lot with non-profits, that is just the biggest one…

Again, they coerced a lot of African countries to give up a lot of their land, but again they think of them as slaves and that they do not matter.

….

Discussion of it happening here in the USA follows. For example Alpha mentions a major bicycling event near a national park where a lot of people go missing. The colonel said to google Missing and National Park. There are like 1,200 people who have just disappeared. (1:23:00)

At 1:28:24 chat comment – HelpMeRhonda

At least 1,180 people were reported missing from US national parks between 2018 and 1st 2 months of 2023, according to records obtained by The Post via a Freedom of Information Act request – Jun 14, 2023

…..

Alpha then talks about GANGS. He mentions a gang conference he went to as a LEO and also about MS 13.

ALPHA: Go and research how MS 13 started. And it is OUR DELTA FORCE! It is a Delta force operator that trained that gang to be what it is. But the scary part is, in this conference, IT IS SATANIC and WITCHCRAFT and RITUALS that come along with it. And the CRIMES! If you think the cartels are scary? These, these people, the crimes they have been a part of? It will keep you up at night. And then we hear all of a sudden, they have become the hitmen of all the different cartels. All the different gangs. And we hear their coming across our southern border… It is a concern for me….

COLONEL TOWNER: Everything you said is SO CRITICAL! Many if not all of the CARTELS ARE UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE CIA. IT IS THE ONLY REASON THEY ARE ALLOWED TO EXIST TODAY. The same thing with the point you made with the Delta Force guy and the creation of gangs.

My worry is not the obvious which is what you talked about, with the people coming across the border. I think that is what they want us to focus on. MY WORRY IS WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN HERE AND IS TRAINED. They will use these people [illegals] as they did with the 9-11 hijackers. They wanted us to believe it was radical Islamists because they became the new boogeyman after the communists fell. So what ever they want you to believe? It is not that.

They are importing people to disguise the ones who are already here. If an event happens, they will try to frame a new person, but it will not be a new person. It will be units who are already here, trained to do what they are going to do. It will not be random. (1:26:00 – 1:30:00)

Summation of OPERATION IN A NUTSHELL: Since 1948, Everything they tell THE PEOPLE, without exception, IS A LIE!

I sure hope Q is on our side and that POTUS Trump is ‘well insulated’ and ‘Has it ALL!’

American Stories: Thanksgiving Edition – Welcome To The Golden Age

We are living long enough to witness something that does not appear to have been done before. Ever. It is time to give thanks for it.

In the history of the world it is likely that there has never been a dominating empire whose government was a representative republic of private citizens. Governments appear to have always been in authority over the people with the support of the elites and powerful – the ruling class. The people were the subjects of the government. That is not true for Americans per our founding documents. America is the beneficiary of the providence of God through the vision of our forefathers who acted against oppression and sought a better way.

Which is why oppressors have attempted to destroy us internally and externally since conception. This has led to the current awakening of the majority of American citizens after decades of deception and corruption. The first response to this awakening led to the events of November 8, 2016. It was a shot over the bow at the oppressors, traitors and seditionists. The war had begun for the soul of America.

Fast forward.

November 5, 2024

We all know what happened after Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016. There is no point in rehashing it or discussing many of the things and people involved behind the scenes and in front of the cameras. There are devils and demons everywhere. Most do not even realize that is who they are. We just seem to forget at times there have been many patriots and heroes working against them. Which has led to positive changes for average citizens even with the DC instigated chaos created against President Trump during the first term.

Over the years a complete disconnect from the desires of the citizens has infected many politicians and their unelected administrative minions. That ends now. Politicians who go with business as usual will be isolated by the executive branch and We the People, then voted out of office or otherwise identified as enemies of the people. Their administrative state cronies are going out the door with them. The reason that will happen over the coming years is because We the People have seen the strings and we cannot unsee them. Citizen journalists have taken over to inform us and transparency reigns. To maintain their credibility these sources of information have to disclose the facts and evidence. They are not dependent on advertisers to cover the massive overheads and compensation of the propagandist talking heads in the fake news industry. As a result they are nimble, close to the people and operate without filters for the most part.

To be sure, MAGA will still need to vet the citizen journalists. Some can be influenced and bought like their fake counterparts. However, We the People know we should do that now and as a result will sort out the posers much more quickly and efficiently. That is a profound change from past practice.

A little alphabet letter birdie hooked many of us and sent us on a journey we will never forget.

WWG1WGA.

We the People have become emboldened by having a popular supposed felon’s back, President-Elect Trump, and staring down the enemy no matter the threats and potential costs. As a result it is time to discuss some major parts of this American reconstruction period we will be seeing now that the bigger war is trending toward a successful, “winning” conclusion.

World Cooperation

Respect oozes out of world leaders for Donald Trump and normal American people. They really don’t want to cross him, they want to make deals and find ways to work together. They know he is a man’s man. Look what is already happening worldwide and the man is still two months away from going back to the White House. They know he is not a politician. He is a pragmatic businessman icon with a true vision of what is best for America, which consequently improves all of their situations if they play their cards right. A rising tide lifts all boats. POTUS-Elect Trump understands win-win and will not go with win-lose unless it is the opponents who are losing and they are enemies of We the People.

Peace is returning. Business expansion and better living conditions are on the way. The world will become more secure, predictable…and happy.

World Economics and Politics

If you move your investments out of the stock market because Trump won you may be certifiably insane. Even his enemies are jumping on for that ride.

Multi-polarity is a real thing. The USMCA and all of his bi-lateral trade agreements with world governments from the first term have already informed you. His acceptance and acknowledgement of BRICS+ is further evidence as is his open acknowledgement and acceptance of a place for crypto. Where you will likely see a slow down in BRICS+ development plans is their move away from the dollar as the basis of the world economy. Vlad and Russia have already indicated their willingness to deal in dollars. President- Elect Trump is going to go after reestablishment of the dollar as the world’s currency with fervor. Investing in America will be cool again.

With multi-polarity we can expect North America to become a more cohesive economic system with greater cooperation from Mehico and Canada. Mehico will act tough and independent at times, but it is all bluster. They know they are toast without us as 25% of their economic production is sold into America. The cartels eventually will be the losers, nothing more than rogue bands of criminals that will be disposed through greater cooperation between agencies and military. Mehico really has no choice. The off the books dark money that funded them through the clowns and other seditionists will be drying up over time with DOGE and Bobby at HHS. Mehico is on notice as are many South and Central America nations who have opened their doors to China’s fentanyl as well as other drug and human trafficking trades.

The NWO and its Barry/Brandon Show overstepped their way into blowing Germany out of being a serious contender for world leadership through their continued support of Islamic immigration (invasion), fascism and Nazis. If Trump pulls back militarily from that country or deemphasizes NATO they will be at bankruptcy. So guess who is going to be buying energy from America and making other concessions? There is no European Union of note without a strong Germany. The Germany and EU that remains will be greatly weakened due to the stupidity and corruption of their leaders, other than the few who have been solidly in Trump’s’ camp for some time like Orban. It should spawn positive change from within the EU over time.

The Muslim Brotherhood is done as are their American promoters, Barry and Cankles, except in their own backyard. No mo money for scum buckets. The Saudis have also strongly assisted with that. Iran is already in retreat mode, cozying up even closer to Vlad, who PDT gets along with well. All of it means stability in world markets. That means there is money to be made for those with investment funds, 401(k)’s and such. With personal income tax rates on a downward trend as a percentage of income, the average working men and women are going to have opportunities to recover from Brandon’s inept criminal appointment as POTUS and improve their financial situations. Say hello to a larger, more well heeled middle class who will become prime, MAGA GOP voters. My advice is to seize on the opportunity.

As far as daily life goes expect lower energy, grocery, and household item prices compared to household incomes. Incomes overall will rise. Employers will be competing hard for sufficient quality staffing with the significant reduction of illegals, stiffer immigration procedures and the element of depop still being felt. That drives up wages and benefits for everybody. There is more money to be made in investments as well as to use with larger purchases with a lowering percentage of cash outflow compared to income, so expect housing and the automotive industry to take off again. We know the drill, we lived it for four years in Trump’s first term. Banks will be lending again because times will be good. That industry will have good profitability and they will lose their fear of bad times as regulators loosen the grips that Brandon’s economic control thugs wielded.

Which makes the propagandist diatribes against efforts to curb illegal immigration even more ridiculous than it is. America is going to need millions more workers in various trades including housing and agriculture. Well vetted worker visas will be a valuable tool to assist. That will make it even easier for our citizen hispanic population to continue their moves toward the GOP. In reality they have far more in common with the MAGA GOP than the Dems.

The difference in big picture this time around is the looming defeat of the old WEF/NWO fraudsters. They are in full retreat worldwide and threats to their existence will accelerate. Many people are hedging their bets, expecting the heavy shoe of these criminals to drop because it has happened before. I call that emotion the Battered Normie Syndrome (BNS). I am and have not been in that camp, I am too contrarian to ever give in to criminals.

In my opinion there may be setbacks, but nothing that MAGA will not overcome. The left has no bench of political candidates except in economically and culturally declining blue crapholes. There is literally nobody who can galvanize existing and create additional support on a national level. The Bob Casey loss in PA was ground shaking for them and reveals cracks in even Gov. Shapiro’s armor, who was their next star. It revealed that a growing majority of the people in the rust belt who were formerly in their camp are over them. These leftists are devoid of solid, potentially productive ideas. They only run against people and stuff using tired fear porn phrases with nothing new to add. Their tired old socialist and communist strategies are falling on more deaf ears now. More people are waking up that have traditionally always pulled a donkey tail. They are realizing as the T-shirts say, “Life is Good”, and rejecting the death advocates. They will find that life is indeed good on the right side of history. MAGA folks blew the criminals off long ago.

Conversely the GOP is deep with MAGA candidates on the federal and state office level with more in development at the local. It is not even close. As a result when the BNS folks start reaping more of the benefits it will be eye opening and stick. Some have already learned to believe nothing the propagandist media tells them. The election this month proved it. Fake polls, politician endorsements (except for Trump) and the views of condescending rich celebrities are not the influence they once were. They heard the pronouncements of the pending Harris/Dem victories and watched as the election results revealed the lies. The blue wall crumbled like a cookie because real people tossed out convention and tradition for practical help and the hope for better. The propagandist TV ratings are tubing, many people are no longer watching them and fewer folks believe what they hear.

Continued pressure on election cheating and using the courts to effect change will increase the margins of victory over time. Who does not know there are still 20+ million fraudulent leftist votes in the federal election system? Watch the totals and percentages gradually dwindle down for the criminals with more judicial screw turning for election security along with the illegals hitting the trails, roads and airways home.

Many such factors lead to my opinion that you bet bullish on America with your personal finances and through living well. Expect America to create a rising tide to lift our international business partners. This is why I posted a few years ago to reduce your debts. You needed to conserve cash for investing. You needed to go conservative in the retirement plan to be in position to be more aggressive with your investment choices today.

We have arrived at our long desired and anticipated destination.

In America there is one fundamental principle of existence in play. It is that our personal views on life itself matter. Desire abundance and life? Choose MAGA GOP. Prefer scarcity and death? Choose Dem/RINO. People’s choices with this principle reflect who they are. Believe them. Our role is to teach others who will listen and consider a better way while making disciples for MAGA. Give no quarter to those who refuse to listen or remain in the Dem/RINO camp politically. Shut them down with truth.

In The Weeds

First, if you are not knowledgeable or want a review of economic indicators, please read the summary link below. It will help.

https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/020215/top-ten-us-economic-indicators.asp

Now, for the nerds – I ignore the CPI index for understanding inflation. It has been rigged for decades along with many statistics quoted in the lamestream business reports. As government has become more and more politicized (corrupted), so have the statistics. Which is why they always revisit them a few months or years later and restate. These restatements are nearly always negative adjustments from what leftist leaders initially report. Fact.

Instead I focus on the personal consumption expenditures price index (PCE) from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. CPI runs higher than PCE. I focus on PCE because the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) uses it more to make recommendations to the Federal Reserve on inflation pressures, to which the Fed reacts and typically concurs. PCE is not immune to their tinkering, just less so. It gives a better picture of what consumers are actually facing. So if you want to know what to expect and why from the Fed, monitor that index and see how the Fed views it in their communications. Below is a good recent summary from the Cleveland Fed. The index is viewed in the same manner by most Fed banks.

https://www.clevelandfed.org/center-for-inflation-research/consumer-price-data

Now for the fun part, what games will Trump play with Powell and the Fed until he replaces him? We know it will lead to more honest representations of the data and approaches of the Fed, Treasury, Commerce, etc. use. It will all become real again instead of the Kabuki Theater we see now. I will not address what I believe happens to the Federal Reserve System itself long term. I believe it will take a POTUS term beyond our President-Elect for a permanent solution.

😉

Now as to the current view…

One financial analyst’s opinion is below. You will note that he is educated guessing while trying to draw comparisons and utilizing very little understanding or referencing to the absolute meat cleaver Trump is going to take to government spending through DOGE and HHS among other departments in government.

https://www.ft.com/content/49af1a6a-0817-42a1-b9e4-1455fc657ccb

I admire his willingness to guess, albeit dumbly and without the use of tea leaves in my opinion.

To illustrate: Assume your personal family situation is as a working married couple with a large mortgage, car payments and kids in school. You go into work one day and there is a letter for you or the spouse that states one of you is out of a job from a layoff, company closure, whatever. (As a side note, I hope currently unknown large numbers of federally employed administrative azzhats receive said letter in January, but I digress.) Odds are with such a large hit to your family income coming, you will be faced with choices on what expenses to cut; possibly selling a car or house in a worst case. At the same time you find other costs you can reduce or eliminate like Junior’s Ivy League college expenses, and so on. You try to muddle through it the best you can and hope to find a decent job quickly to replace the lost income until better days come.

Now substitute the term “married couple” with “America” from the above. The mortgage and car payments are the national debt service. The kids in school are the social network needs of the citizens. The layoffs and job losses are obvious; thank you China and others via the globalists and other criminals who have no regard for America and the needs of our citizens. This is a result on the imbalance in trade.

I will provide a simple, practical example here for readers who do not know. If we buy more foreign goods than we produce and sell, more dollars are held in foreign hands. The globalists and political idgits claim those dollars return to America in the form of buying our nation’s debt, (Treasuries), real estate, etc. as investments. First off, that is no longer the case. Many nations who formerly invested heavily in our debt have drastically reduced their exposure or have divested due to our exploding deficits from spend crazy politicians. China would be high on that list, the nation we spend more for imported products than any other on earth. Dollars have been going out to them without an equal amount of dollars coming in to keep us in equilibrium. Second, why would anybody think it is a good thing to bring dollars back through the issuance of debt (Treasuries) and selling our land to foreign adversaries? We have to pay interest on all that debt, which compounds the problem. That negatively affects every single American. Yet, the politicians and propagandist media tell all of us daily it is a good thing and we will be fine.

Understand, our government will never borrow its way out of debt despite their continuing best efforts. Don’t get me started on the stupidity of our politicians and administrative state in going all in with Quantitative Easing. It causes my blood pressure to escalate too high.

So if any talking heads act like the deficit of the Balance of Trade is unimportant, turn off your TV or hearing aids. Our national leadership, as do many citizens, violate a principle of life that never changes. Proverbs 22:7 says, “The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower becomes the lender’s slave.” Our nation did this willingly with the rise of globalist influence within our federal government to rebuild nations destroyed by WW II. They saw it as an opportunity to gain huge wealth and power. They used the national treasury and wealth of We the People as their personal piggybanks and still do. Which is why they have tried to ruin and kill the head of the MAGA snake in their minds, President Trump.

He has been the rightful POTUS since 2016 as all MAGA knows. We know what the globalist criminals did and they hate us for it.

With this in mind let’s go back to the married couple example. It gets worse for you and your family. You see and now comprehend that America has more than stubbed its toe by electing the wrong leaders, or worse yet, a bunch of criminals who game the system and take over. You begin to comprehend that with their co-conspirators in the Fed they create even more inflation through printing money to handle globalist desires, proxy wars and scamdemics. You see what is good for them is bad for you and your children.

Your discomfort grows. The propagandists on the evening news tell you that the national debt service and expenses are rising well beyond the nation’s ability to repay by say… 2 TRILLION dollars a year. They say Social Security and Medicare are even threatened. So the Treasury borrows even more funds from foreign mafias with strings attached that clear the way for turmoil and wars worldwide. They tell you the government simply has to pass that stop gap continuing resolution for more money printing or else, GASP!, the federal government will have to shut down except for essential services as there may be a financial apocalypse on the horizon. They begin talking about raising taxes and booting the Trump era tax cuts when they come up for renewal in 2025.

All of this is happening while you as a family simply want to earn enough money to pay the bills, eat healthy and give a future worth living to your kids.

Get the picture now? That was our reality in America until the new sheriff, who is the old sheriff, who is the only righful sheriff; rode back into town. We really were at the edge of the cliff about to fall off as a nation. It is like going from darkness to light. Which is why the Blue Wall fell. Most voters there knew they had no choice, they could not continue to support status quo even if it meant mean tweets again and the propagandists bitching all of the time. They responded in a too big to rig fashion.

The declining establishment and fake news media will continue to beat that same drum even though their masters lost. It will not matter that things are different and better. They are prostitutes and know of no other way to make a living. However, the reality is they lost and they know it. No amount of subterfuge and stalling by RINO’s and such can prevent the inevitable changes that provide a Golden Age for America and its international friends. It is coming down the tracks like a freight train.

President-Elect Trump, JD, Elon, Vivek, Bobby and many others will show you where to invest. Listen to their words and believe their actions. You do not need anybody else to help you do that. Just know that you cannot borrow your way out of debt and cutting expenses will rarely be enough to complete that task as well. Those are actions that a mature to declining nation undertakes, which is who America was before this election. To turn things around America has to return to the growth cycle. President-Elect Trump has already told you how and has already done it before. This time it needs to be institutionalized such that our enemies cannot disrupt it.

Going to growth from decline means selling off non-essential assets, shedding debt, shedding non-essential unproductive payroll, shedding meritless activities, tossing needless regulations, and so on. It takes investment capital (tariffs), an increasing commercial (preferably industrial focused) tax base and global capital investors willing to make new investments (I see you, Scott Bessent and Howard Lutnick). It takes innovation and innovative people with outside the box thinking. It takes hard work as well as smart moves in the markets. It takes security agencies to reduce corporate spying and fraud to produce a more level playing field that is administered by law enforcement functions and the judiciary. Most of all it takes a federal government that serves the people and enables its citizens to succeed instead of the reverse, which is unlike what we have experienced in recent years.

A massive paradigm shift for America has occurred. Know it, act on it as applicable in your own lives.

Conclusion

I hope you have heard and seen all of that from the President-Elect and his inner circle. I know I have. I do not concern myself with second guessing his picks for the various cabinet roles. He has his reasons and if the wrong choice is made with any of them We the People will know it quickly and let him know about it. This time around he has a feel for the solid MAGA pulse, the authority to make the decisions and the apparatus to make the changes. No lawfare attempts to undermine him and supporters will succeed, just delay, so be patient. They did not succeed when he was a private citizen, they certainly will not now. The law has also changed in important areas such as with the Chevron Deference overturn. The SCOTUS has a Constitution supporting majority that will likely grow if the MAGA GOP can increase its involvement and Congressional dominance over the coming years.

I also know this approach and method works. We have followed this path for over two decades in Tennessee. We are not perfect, but we are definitely America First worthy. It came from We the People on the local ground level figuring things out, working hard, building alliances and consensus, building momentum that carried into the voting booths and the halls of our legislature and Governor’s office. Over time we gradually rooted the Dem and RINO influence and control out of our system of government. We have sustained via a super majority (75+%) in both House and Senate. We have a state Constitutionally required balanced budget as well as no personal income or estate taxes. The left tried to change them with amendments and were met with crushing defeats by the people because we have a secured election system and the Volunteer spirit in our bones. They no longer try because We the People made them pay for even attempting it – which was our “penalty” phase. Now when federal elections occur we know that at minimum over 60% of the statewide votes will be MAGA GOP. We still have a couple of RINO’s to root out, however, the only pockets of voter resistance are within blue crapholes in a couple of cities.

Our state was in the bottom third of the nation economically before We the People took over. For several years now our state has enjoyed a AAA bond rating from the agencies with a low tax burden on residents while issuing state record business license applications and strong growth in manufacturing. The government has a large rainy day fund and we offer free tuition and no fees to students attending community and technical colleges. These are all signs of a government serving the people as compared to being served.

Other than the long term leftist wacko in Memphis, Steve Cohen, all of our other eight elected officials in the House in DC are GOP to go with all key GOP state leaders. Senators Blackburn and Hagerty continue to perform well and fully support the MAGA movement with POTUS Trump’s endorsement. It should be clear to all of us that We the People simply need to trust the plan and do our parts all around the country as it is being done here and other MAGA states.

I believe in this nation of states, this republic. I believe the majority of Americans will return to a love of the Constitution along with freedom and liberty for all. That’s why I choose to ride with the America First…

Have a blessed Thanksgiving!

GMOs & CHEESE, Oh My!

IMG_0634

Well here is a bit of VERY BAD NEWS that showed up on the daily thread.

IMG_0634
YOU ADDED WHAT TO MY CHEESE???

First I want to give a MAJOR H/T to Dr. Mercola, Ashley Armstrong of Robert Kennedy Jr’s Children’s Health Defense Organization and to The Burning Platform for bringing this to our attention. Dr Mercola has drawn attacks from the Cabal early on especially during the beginnings of Covid as has the Children’s Health Defense Organization.

Stolen from the Article:

90% of U.S. Cheese Contains GMO Made by Pfizer

Guest Post by Ashley Armstrong
Rennet is used as a clotting agent to curdle the milk into cheese, separating the liquid parts of milk from the solids. Pfizer makes a genetically modified rennet, but because of a labeling loophole, cheese containing Pfizer’s rennet does not have to be labeled as containing a genetically modified organism.

Story at a glance:

  • Traditionally, cheese was made with just four ingredients: milk, salt, starter culture and animal rennet.
  • Rennet is used as a clotting agent to curdle the milk into cheese, separating the liquid parts of milk from the solids. It’s an essential part of the cheese-making process.
  • Today, there are four types of rennet used in the cheese-making industry: animal rennet, vegetable rennet, microbial rennet and a genetically modified version called FPC (fermentation-produced chymosin), made by Pfizer.
  • Bioengineered FPC was granted Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) status, which exempted Pfizer from the pre-approved requirements that apply to other new food additives. This is even though studies have detailed concerns about safety.
  • An estimated 90% of North American cheese is made with FPC rennet, and ingredient labels do not distinguish between bioengineered rennet and the original animal-based type so consumers have no way of knowing what they’re eating.

…Safety concerns of GM enzymes

Well, again, this technology is new. So there are no long-term studies evaluating the safety of eating a small amount of this genetically modified food additive every single day.
But there are two main concerns: 1) toxicity and 2) digestive issues since these rennet alternatives can serve as an allergen.

Toxicity concerns

Toxicity means that the enzyme solution contains biotoxins from the genetically modified host (mold or fungus) that is being cultured and fermented in the lab.
The producers of these enzymes claim the final FPC enzyme solution is highly purified, but some people react as though they still contain some of the allergens from the host microorganisms themselves.

In fact, traces of the genetically engineered bacteria have been found in enzymes. A few quotes from the literature regarding these toxicity concerns. I don’t know about you, but I have no desire to consume biotoxins from genetically modified organisms!
Genetically modified food enzymes are currently produced from GMOs. Safety concerns have been raised regarding potential contamination of food with bacterial toxins or mycotoxins, allergens, or uncharacterized extraneous substances as impurities.
“Because these enzymes are purified from microbial sources, toxic substances might be present in enzyme preparations/isolates. The toxic substances are basically bacterial toxins and mycotoxins, which might cause problems/risks related to the health of consumers.

“Safety legislation is also very much attentive regarding the allergenic properties of manufactured enzymes, as it is well known that enzymes are potent inhalative sensitizers.
“Apart from that, numerous uncharacterized extraneous substances/ impurities of microbial/biological origin may also be present in the enzyme preparation, which is also a matter of prime concern while evaluating the safety of commercial enzyme products.

“While food enzyme preparations are considered unlikely to cause any acute toxicity, genotoxicity, or repeat-dose oral toxicity, it is the fermentation product(s) of microorganisms from the manufacturing process that is/are of interest due to the potential presence of secondary metabolites that may induce toxicity when ingested (eg. aflatoxins, fumonisins and/or ochratoxins).”

So, some are concerned about continuous ingestion of these biotoxins over time, and the negative health consequences those would have over the course of years.
And unfortunately, there isn’t much regulation here. “Currently, the companies themselves are responsible for the quality control of their products.”
Gee, that’s not helpful!

Allergens and digestive issues

So as a result of a small amount of these toxins potentially showing up in the final cheese product (and slight structural changes in the final proteins), the cheese can now serve as an allergen and can cause an allergic reaction, or digestive and respiratory issues.

  • Stomach upset or discomfort.
  • Runny nose, increase in mucus production.

Consumers then may think they can’t digest cheese — but hey, maybe it is just the cheese that was made! It may not be the dairy itself, but the microorganism residues that elicit an allergic response, or irritate the gut lining.

I do not digest cheese that is made with this FPC (which again can be “vegetable rennet” or “microbial rennet” on labels). I get stomach upset and a disruption of my normal bowel movements.
So something isn’t going right there! I can only digest cheese made with animal rennet, so I am very picky with what cheese I consume day to day!
GMO cheese may compromise your gut health
One of the biggest issues here is the potential disruption of the gut microbiome.
“Lastly, the case study highlights the issues related to the dissemination of [antimicrobial resistance] genes due to their potential acquisition by the human commensal flora, via direct food consumption and by environmental bacteria through contact with soil and water surfaces or food waste. This is especially the case as a living GMM [genetically modified micro-organism] was found in a FE [enzyme] preparation.”
In addition, allergic responses from ingesting the biotoxin residues or modified protein structures.

👉“A known safety risk linked to industrial enzyme use is respiratory allergy and for most proteases, there is also some potential for skin and eye irritation … Enzymes present a risk of a respiratory allergy (e.g. Aspergillus-derived enzymes in bakers’ asthma) and it is well described in the scientific literature …

“Genetic modification of enzymes may also change their allergenic properties, posing new potential health risks. For instance, type I sensitization was found in a study of 813 exposed industrial workers using genetically modified enzymes.”

So, it is documented in the literature, I experience it personally, and have heard from multiple other people — some people have digestive issues digesting the microbial and vegetable rennets.

But do just fine with cheese made traditionally with animal rennet. There are consequences when we try to outsmart nature!

Good post!

OK, so which cheeses, American and foreign, are not GMO FPC rennet? Seems like the discussion needs to take another step or two.

I found links below to help with the types. But nothing so far on the brands that are good to use.

Sheep Cheese is supposed to be especially good for you. That is why the USDA/FDA wiping out Linda Faillace’s MILKING SHEEP herd was so horrible.

This website is for Amos Miller, the Amish farmer that the gubt is trying to destroy. His life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Along with his his business, just like they are trying to do with President Trump. So never believe them when they tel you it’s just President Trump. They are LIARS! Remember what they did to small businesses during their fake pandemics and forced lockdowns.
This website was set up by Viva & Barnes to help him and his case. There is merch here, as well as donation options for anyone so inclined. It also tells his story. Please share so more will know.

Dear KMAG: 20240122 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic


Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


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

And yes, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will always remember Wheatie,

Pray for Trump,

Yet have fun,

and HOLD ON when things get crazy!


We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:

“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

doppelganger

noun

  1. A ghostly double of a living person, especially one that haunts such a person.
  2. An evil twin.
  3. A remarkably similar double.
  4. Alter ego.
  5. A person who has the same name as another.
  6. A book by anti-Trump feminist Naomi Klein, about Trump-friendly feminist Naomi Wolf.

From Wikipedia

A doppelgänger (/ˈdɒpəlɡɛŋər, -ɡæŋər/), sometimes spelled as doppelgaenger or doppelganger, is a biologically unrelated look-alike, or a double, of a living person. In fiction and mythology, a doppelgänger is often portrayed as a ghostly  paranormal phenomenon and usually seen as a harbinger of bad luck. Other traditions and stories equate a doppelgänger with an evil twin. In modern times, the term twin stranger is occasionally used.

The Book Cover


MUSIC!

How about a “fiddle chicks X bagpipe grlz” video?

It turns out there is actually a song called “Doppelganger”. It’s not bad at all, but kinda sad.

How about some fresh country? Just found this song!

OK, let’s finish with a TRUMP RALLY SONG! WOOHOO!!!


THE STUFF

The stuff, this week, is about Naomi Klein vs. Naomi Wolf.

I began by picking up the recent “Naomi vs. Naomi” book, Doppelganger.

You’re all most likely familiar with feminist Naomi Wolf, that perennial guest of Steve Bannon. She, the anti-COVID-vaccine-fighter extraordinaire, whose stellar work on the Pfizer FOIA documents caused Rochelle Walensky to flee her harpy perch at CDC for better cover.

There is another feminist who is sometimes confused with Wolf, named Naomi Klein. Klein is a cabal defender, ultimately, but she has managed a bit of some weak “insider” criticism on the left – enough to be considered an intellectual – not enough to lose her perks and privileges.

Supposedly because Klein is sometimes mistaken for Wolf, and takes wrongly directed criticism from the left for it, Klein decided to attack Wolf, and hence the book. Or at least, that is her story.

Right now, both the Kindle version and the hardback version of Klein’s book are $15, which means that the hardcover is NOT doing well in those cabal bookstores like Barnes & Lucifer.

“WHAT???!!!” – you may be saying. Why would this Wolf (“DA WOOF”) be picking up RADICAL LEFT TRASH?

The book is basically one long REEEEEEEEEE!!!!!, and it’s glorious, and that is why I bought it.

More specifically, the book is a left-wing, globalist, overly verbose, incredibly narcissistic, and eye-rollingly navel-gazing attack by stereotypical “New York culture, Canada address” feminist Naomi Klein on “MAGA-friendly liberal” feminist Naomi Wolf.

Once I realized how much of a REEEEEEEEEE!!! this book was, I began laughing in the store at every breathless outrage, and eventually realized that I needed to buy it.

The thing is, Naomi Klein is OBSESSED with Naomi Wolf, and the more one reads, the more one understands that FAKERY is chasing AUTHENTICITY – obsessed – because Fakery cannot stand to be in the same room as Authenticity, and yet it MUST be in that room, getting all the attention, so it has to ATTACK what it cannot be.

In the same way that people like Romney, Pelosi, Obama, Kasich, and all the rest are OBSESSED with Trump, and simply MUST try to destroy him – in the same way that Satan is OBSESSED with Christ, and must try to destroy Him, so Naomi Klein is obsessed with the “other Naomi” whose coattails she rode in on, and from whose coattails she exited, in the name of holding onto respect by the media, the government, and the rest of the elite.

It is my belief that Naomi Klein is the real doppelganger, and that her work is a kind of sub-critical hysterical confession. IMO, Klein always benefited from confusion with Naomi Wolf – until Naomi Wolf “walked the walk” right into the fire – in a way that Naomi Klein could not follow, nor even pretend to “talk the talk” without losing her seat at the elite table.

Wolf lost her academic position for speaking the truth. Klein still has hers. Do the math.

Klein wrote a book called The Shock Doctrine, which was a very insightful look at how neo-liberal corporate capitalism piles into crisis to make money. Klein was basically starting to see the phoniness of things like the Green New Deal. The problem was, she could never go far enough, because she’s too close to the agenda. Whether Klein can’t see, won’t see, or is just pretending not to see, it doesn’t change the outcome – she doesn’t see.

Klein can never see – nor admit that she sees – the corruption of centralized government, working hand-in-hand with phony crisis capitalism.

COVID and the vaccines provide a perfect example. Klein simply can’t leave the plantation. She stays safely on the “Bad Wolf” designated cheer circle, criticizing Wolf for departing from “the science” into “conspiracy theories”, and utterly refusing to admit that “the science” is no longer interested in saving pleb lives, when government money, taken from the plebs, is there for the taking.

Does Klein know? Is she wise to the globalist scam? Probably, IMO.

Klein also takes some interesting heat from the left.

For example, Klein is seen as a bit too friendly toward big-government-big-corporation-big-NGO-big-academia solutions, and the “gang-green” take her out for not going totally Maoist and anarchist on climate change, like those brave souls who glue themselves to roads, art exhibits, and whatnot.

Then there is this great work of TLDRism from the intellectual left, seeing the same thing in a more complicated way.

Whatever. The bottom line is that I took one for the team, to figure out what’s up with this Klein broad. Save your money – don’t buy the book unless you want to “see the REE“!


Just sayin’!

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!

And as always….

ENJOY THE SHOW

WHY ARE CO2 and NUCLEAR ENERGY, THE CABAL’S BOOGY MEN?

My thesis here is that the Cabal learned, in the late 1960s, early 1970s, that the earth was likely heading into an ice age. I documented this in GREENHOUSE, ICEHOUSE OR CLIMATIC MADHOUSE? h/t Neuman and Hearty (1996) They decided to hide that fact from the general population while preparing for glaciation by consolidating power, conserving resources and reducing world population growth. Via grant money they also directed research into genetic manipulation of plants and animals, surveillance techniques and other technology. They knew that over the last 5 to 8 million years during glaciation, CO2 dipped dangerously low, forcing the evolution of C4 plants and the extinction of mammals. This explains many of their disinformation campaigns such as ‘Global Warming, CO2 is BAD, Feminism, abortion is good, and having too many kids is BAD. It even explains the nuclear power scares. They are well aware that the Grand Solar Maximum that lifted the earth out of the Little Ice Age has now ended, and they may truly think that a new Ice Age is imminent.

2011- Russian scientist predicts 100 years of cooling

Updated November 11, 2016 – Top Russian Scientist Claims -The Next ‘Little Ice Age’ Is Already Here

No one wants to stick their neck out and predict glaciation, but it does not matter. The only choices are glaciation or a climatic ‘madhouse.’ Either way the only climate we will see in the near future is the ‘madhouse.’

Before I get into the evidence showing why the Cabal wants to conserve coal, oil and nuclear fuels for use during the coming cooling/ice age, I want to point out another indicator that the Cabal is expecting the transition to glacial conditions AND THEY EXPECT IT NOW. Since  William McClenney wrote Glacial Inception: the climatic ‘madhouse’ nine years ago, his link to the Neuman & Hearty paper has gone dead … Imagine that!!! Since I started to write this paper even more ‘clean-up’ of ‘inconvenient’ information has occurred so I am going to address that as a separate topic.

CLIMATIC MADHOUSE

I would also like to point out the recent change in the Cabal’s rhetoric. The talking heads no longer use ‘Global Warming,’ since it is no longer warming, and instead use ‘Climate Change’ or ‘Climate Disruption’. Hearty uses the phrase ‘Climatic Madhouse’ for the same phenomena. That is certainly a good reason for the Cabal to deep six the paper referenced by McClenney at WUWT. They do not want a reference pointing out that ‘Climate Disruption’ is not only natural, but an indication that we are heading into either Little Ice Age conditions or a full blown Ice Age.

William McClenney @ WUWT  May 31, 2014 1:38 pm

“This has prompted the remark that between the greenhouse and the icehouse lies a climatic “madhouse”, which was stated by Neuman and Hearty (1996)  http://www.researchgate.net/publication/249518169_Rapid_sea-level_changes_at_the_close_of_the_last_interglacial_(substage_5e)_recorded_in_Bahamian_island_geology/file/9c96051c6e66749912.pdf

That is the dead link I will be addressing later.

Here is another similar paper by Neuman & Hearty from December 2001

Rapid sea level and climate change at the close of the Last Interglaciation (MIS 5e): Evidence from the Bahama Islands

The geology of the Last Interglaciation (sensu stricto, marine isotope substage (MIS) 5e) in the Bahamas records the nature of sea level and climate change. After a period of quasi-stability for most of the interglaciation, during which reefs grew to +2.5 m, sea level rose rapidly at the end of the period, incising notches in older limestone. After brief stillstands at +6 and perhaps +8.5 m, sea level fell with apparent speed to the MIS 5d lowstand and much cooler climatic conditions. It was during this regression from the MIS 5e highstand that the North Atlantic suffered an oceanographic “reorganization” about 118±3 ka ago. During this same interval, massive dune-building greatly enlarged the Bahama Islands. Giant waves reshaped exposed lowlands into chevron-shaped beach ridges, ran up on older coastal ridges, and also broke off and threw megaboulders onto and over 20 m-high cliffs. The oolitic rocks recording these features yield concordant whole-rock amino acid ratios across the archipelago. Whether or not the Last Interglaciation serves as an appropriate analog for our “greenhouse” world, it nonetheless reveals the intricate details of climatic transitions between warm interglaciations and near glacial conditions.

And a paper by different authors looking at a different part of the world showing a similar chaotic transition from the warm phase to the cold phase.

Instability of climate and vegetation dynamics in Central and Eastern Europe during the final stage of the Last Interglacial and Early Glaciation

This is a review of several different studies. The scientists are looking at both the geochemical data and the biological data (pollen), two independent methods of determining the climate of the past showing the same chaos.

1. INTRODUCTION

The time intervals of global large-scale transitions between glacial and interglacial epochs are characterized by instable stages throughout Quaternary climate course. During such warm-cold transitions an increase of mid- and small-scale climate variations can be expected….

At the very end of the Eemian (PAZ E7) and just before the complete change to glacial conditions, a brief phase of warming is recognized from all geochemical indicators. This is indicated by the coordinate increase of contents and stable isotope values of both lake carbonate and the organic sediment fraction…

…Comparable findings were also described by earlier investigations of the Neumark–Nord profile (Litt, 1994). A pronounced increase of fluctuations in arboreal vegetation during the final stage of the Last Interglacial in LPAZ N8 is observed…. at least two stages of degradation of coniferous forest vegetation, while birch woodlands became widespread. Together with geochemical data, these can be interpreted as an indicator of increased climatic instability caused by short warming events during the very end of the Last Interglacial (Eemian)….

The earth’s climate seems to be bistable so that a temperature ‘low point’ has “increased climatic instability” as seen during the Little Ice Age. So whether we are looking at the very end of the Holocene and Glacial inception OR the earth bumping along at the low point with “cooling over the next ~90,000 years.” – Dr.Lorraine Lisiecki, April 6, 2010 at 7:31 pm the chances are the earth will be experiencing increasingly unstable weather and the Cabal, darn well KNOWS THAT. Hence the new term ‘Climate Disruption’.

WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTIC WE CAN EXPECT OF A COMING ICE AGE?

Arid, Windy, Dusty’ from lack of rain plus much lower CO2. Combine that with a shorter cooler summer growing season and you are looking at starvation, UNLESS you have greenhouses with Heat, CO2 and desalinated water. Under those conditions, coal, oil, gas and nuclear are priceless resources.

Köppen Climate Classification: Defining The Climate Zones Of The World

….The close correlation between climate and vegetation is evident in every part of the world. (The cold, dry conditions of Antarctica and the moist & humid conditions of the tropical rain forests in South America are just two examples of this powerful interaction.) The strong connection between the two is also proving to play a key role in categorizing and dividing the global climate into more specific zones….

Late in the 19th century, climatologist and botanist Wladimir Köppen developed a climate classification system based on vegetation. He used the correlation between vegetation and climate in different regions to divide the world’s climate into specific zones….

Climatologists continued to make amendments to Köppen’s climate classification. Rudolf Geiger was probably the most influential in making important amendments, and the subsequent Köppen-Geiger Classification System is one of the most widely used today….

The following graphs shows the Köppen Climate Boundary for mid America. If you look at the bottom graph, you can see how the cooling in the 1970s moved the Köppen Climate Boundary south by about 150 to 200 miles. Think what that did to the grain harvests in not only the USA, but also in Canada, Russia and China. World leaders were panicking as world grain stores were depleted to a 30 day supply by1969 per 1974 CIA Report mentioned below.

This is the December 3, 1972 Letter from George Kukla and others warning Nixon of a coming Ice Age. I originally saw this letter at Tony Heller’s site. Between the time I started writing and now it was removed. However I found another copy.

An important letter sent to the President about the danger of climate change

An important conference was held in January at Brown University:  “The Present Interglacial, How and When Will it End?”   As a result, the following letter was sent to the President.  The media has not reported this, but you should be aware of the letter and its significance.

Dear Mr. President:

Aware of your deep concern with the future of the world, we feel obliged to inform you on the results of the scientific conference held here recently. The conference dealt with the past and future changes of climate and was attended by 42 top American and European investigators. We enclose the summary report published in Science and further publications are forthcoming in Quaternary Research.

The main conclusion of the meeting was that a global deterioration of climate, by order of magnitude larger than any hitherto experience by civilized mankind, is a very real possibility and indeed may be due very soon.

The cooling has natural cause and falls within the rank of processes which produced the last ice age. This is a surprising result based largely on recent studies of deep sea sediments.

Existing data still do not allow forecast of the precise timing of the predicted development, nor the assessment of the man’s interference with the natural trends. It could not be excluded however that the cooling now under way in the Northern Hemisphere is the start of the expected shift. The present rate of the cooling seems fast enough to bring glacial temperatures in about a century, if continuing at the present pace.

The practical consequences which might be brough by such developments to existing social institution are among others:

(1) Substantially lowered food production due to the shorter growing seasons and changed rain distribution in the main grain producing belts of the world, with Eastern Europe and Central Asia to be first affected.

(2) Increased frequency and amplitude of extreme weather anomalies such as those bringing floods, snowstorms, killing frosts, etc.

And a 1974 article by the Guardian. Again, H/T Tony Heller. Funny, this one was not deep-sixed like the above image.

The Malthusian Eugenicists like John D Rockefeller seized on this coming Ice Age information to further scare world leaders into going along with their Depopulation plans as documented in the 1974 Kissinger Report, otherwise known as the National Security Study Memorandum NSSM 200 [my excerpts]. (See the rest of my Depop series listed at the end of the article.)

As secret reports like 1974 NSSM 200 and the 1974 CIA Report: A Study of Climatological Research as it Pertains to Intelligence Problems” were being written about the coming cooling/ possible glaciation, Maurice Strong, the Rockefeller’s lapdog, was screaming about ‘Global Warming’ at the UN Conference on the Human Environment, (June 1972.) There he was busytelling the newly formed NGOs to go home and raise hell. NGOs BTW were Strong’s brainchild based on YMCA International who he had worked with. LINK

It is instructive to read Strong’s 1972 Stockholm speech and compare it with the issues of Earth Summit 1992. Strong warned urgently about global warming, the devastation of forests, the loss of biodiversity, polluted oceans, the population time bomb. Then as now, he invited to the conference the brand-new environmental NGOs [non-governmental organizations]: he gave them money to come; they were invited to raise hell at home. After Stockholm, environment issues became part of the administrative framework in Canada, the U.S., Britain, and Europe. http://www.afn.org/~govern/strong.html

A year later the Rockefeller OPEC puppets — Think ARAMCO who Strong worked for — implemented the 1973 oil embargo quadrupling the price of oil by 1974. Remember, on August 15, 1971, President Richard Nixon closed the U.S. gold window and the Petrodollar Agreement was implemented in 1973.

“..There was a phony “nationalization” of Aramco in the 1970s… the Saudi government took over Aramco, formally, but then immediately turned around and granted the Aramco-Rockefeller consortium the exclusive contract to “manage” the operation…” LINK 

So any bets the Malthusian Rockefellers were behind OPEC?

COOLING VS THE FOOD PROBLEM – First there is the problem of WATER.

I think everyone is aware of what shorter growing seasons do to the food supply, at least I hope so. I also hope people can connect increase in solar energy going into the oceans with an increase of evaporation and thus an increase in rain. Likewise a DECREASE in solar energy will mean less evaporation and less rain. Compared to the Holocene, the Wisconsin Ice Age was very dry.

By 8,000 14C y.a., the Earth was under a full interglacial climate,[the Holocene]with conditions warmer and moister than present in many parts of the world. Tropical forest in Africa (and probably also Asia) was expanded in area, and the areas of desert in Africa and Asia were much reduced.

Africa is interesting. The present potential looks more like the full glaciation map than it does like the Early Holocene map.

So the first problem in an Ice Age (and now) is the lack of RAIN.

Greenhouses take the chaotic weather out of the picture

Oct 2022 – CO2 enrichment in greenhouse production: Towards a sustainable approach

The ice that had formed from falling snow during the transition from the last of the cold, dry, windy ice ages to the first of the warm, wet calms of the modern 10,000-year-long Holocene climate is 1,678 meters, just over a mile, down the GISP2 core. Rendered in ice, what exactly would it look like, this boundary of epochs? The young American scientists had read the literature from Chet Langway, Willi Dansgaard, Hans Oeschger, Wally Broecker, and others, and they had heard from the Europeans, who were about a year ahead of them in drilling at Summit. Yet still they were not entirely prepared for what they saw that day in the ice, for the suddenness of it.”…

“‘You did not need to be a trained ice core observer to see this,’ recalled Alley. ‘Ken Taylor is sitting there with the ECM and he’s running along and his green line is going wee, wee, wee, wee – Boing!

And then it stays down.’ Dust in the windy ice age atmosphere lowered the acidity of the core to a completely new state. ‘We’re just standing there and he just draws a picture of it,”‘Alley said.”….

Notice the optimal range is 700 to 1200 PPM over double the current ambient levels. Also note plants suck the CO2 down to around 200 ppm. Outdoor studies have shown the same. Technology has even advanced to the point there is now a CO2 OPTIMIZER.

Growers tend to supplement CO2 in their greenhouse using a combination of educated guesswork and their talent and skill for growing crops. Adding CO2 is a matter of ‘feeling’, because it is simply not possible to measure the effectiveness of CO2. That is, until now. Ridder has, in partnership with Wageningen University, developed the CO2 Optimizer. This smart and helpful software module calculates the optimum level of CO2 in the greenhouse, enabling the grower to determine the most effective CO2 dose. The result: no more worrying about your CO2 strategy – it will always be on point for the best possible yields!

That device would certainly be useful in Ice Age greenhouses.

URANIUM AND NUCLEAR POWER

An obvious solution to the ‘cold, dry, windy ’ problem of an Ice Age is desalination. Israel put into large scale use the reverse osmosis technology developed in the USA in the early 60s. LINK 1 as well as water conservation methods in agriculture LINK 2-Israel agi.

Desalination was first developed in Israel in 1965, when Mekorot, Israel’s national water utility, established the first seawater desalination facility using vaporization technology in an effort to address the chronic thirst of the city of Eilat, located at the extreme southern tip of Israel on the Red Sea. A highly energy-intensive process, Mekorot looked for an alternative, energy-saving process, which it found in the reverse osmosis (RO) technology developed in the United States. In the early 1970s after the energy crisis of the Yom Kippur War, Mekorot began installing small-scale brackish water RO-desalination plants and, within the decade, established 15 desalination plants that supplied water to the Arava valley residents. Increasing demand and decreasing supply of freshwater in the coming years encouraged Mekorot to develop seawater desalination as an additional source, and the first plant (which desalinated a mixture of seawater and the reject brine from desalinated brackish water) commenced operation in 1997 in Eilat (Mekorot 2006). The motivation behind desalination of seawater in Israel stems from the fact that current demand and projected future demand cannot be met by natural freshwater sources alone – a disparity that results from population growth, overconsumption, misallocation, and pollution…

Description

Nuclear desalination can be considered one of the most viable means of producing fresh water in arid areas. This publication addresses environmental concerns, and aims to improve understanding. It provides an overview of the nature and magnitude of the environmental impacts of nuclear desalination. In addition to detailing experimental data and the experience gained in operating nuclear desalination projects, it highlights risks perceived by the public. The publication encompasses environmental and socioeconomic information provided by specialized sources including some Member States with extensive experience in operating nuclear desalination systems. Addressing these concerns can be of critical importance for the effective use of nuclear desalination to its full potential….

Oct 21, 2022, FORBES: U.S. Nuclear Reactors Among The Oldest In The World

The latest edition of the World Nuclear Industry Status Report shows that U.S. nuclear power plants are among the oldest in the world. The country’s 92 reactors currently in operation have a mean age of 41.6 years….

The U.S. was among the first commercial adopters of nuclear energy in the 1950s, explaining the number of aging reactors today.A building boom between the 1960s and 1970s created today’s nuclear power plants in the United States. Of the five reactors completed in the 1990s and the one finished in 2016, all were holdovers of delayed construction projects from the 1970s experiencing roadblocks due to regulatory problems and mounting opposition to nuclear energy

So despite nuclear energy being CO2 neutral and the southwest’s need for water, the USA has not approved new construction since the 1970s…. There is that critical 1970s decade again when everything changed.


Giving society cheap, abundant energy … would be the equivalent of giving an idiot child a machine gun.

Back to The Köppen Climate Boundary.

Not only was the area in the USA/Canada/Russia/China moved south by 100 to 200 miles in the seventies, CO2 is very soluble in COLD WATER (van ‘t Hoff equation.) So as the earth cools CO2 gets sucked up by the oceans thereby lowering the amount of CO2 available for plants.

As ocean temperatures rise, the solubility of CO2 in seawater declines.  Thus increasing ocean temperature moves CO2 from the ocean into the atmosphere, and decreasing ocean temperatures move CO2 out of the atmosphere and back into the ocean.  As you can see in the graph below, a 10C shift in temperature causes about 30% reduction in dissolved CO2.  Closely corresponding to what we see in the measured ice core graph above. — Tony Heller

Under stress seeds will not even start and the cut off is ~220 ppm CO2. The Climastrologists played games with the measurements of ice cores and came up with 150. AGAIN the chemistry is CO2 loves water so the air bubbles have less CO2 than the entire ice sample. Dr Zbigniew Jaworowski explains that dis-info campaign HERE.

Jaworowski data is backed up by plant fossils.

The CO2 Record in Plant Fossils

Plant fossils obtained from sedimentary rocks and peat deposits are a relatively new tool being used to unravel Earth’s carbon dioxide (CO2) history. Tiny pores on plant leaves and needles called stomata regulate carbon dioxide absorption and water vapor release. Stomata numbers decrease during times of high atmospheric CO2, and increase when atmospheric CO2 is low….

CO2 and our Food Supply

Most of our veggies and fruit are C3 not C4.

C3 Plants

The vast majority of land plants we rely on for human food and energy use the C3 pathway, which is the oldest of the pathways for carbon fixation, and it is found in plants of all taxonomies. Almost all extant nonhuman primates across all body sizes, including prosimians, new and old world monkeys, and all the apes—even those who live in regions with C4 and CAM plants—depend on C3 plants for sustenance….

The problem is the C3 pathway needs more water and CO2 than the C4 pathway and both were in short supply during the last Ice Age and are certainly not at optimum levels now as shown by the African desertification since the Holocene Optimum.

Carbon starvation in glacial trees recovered from the La Brea tar pits, southern California (THINK SEA LEVEL!)

Abstract

The Rancho La Brea tar pit fossil collection includes Juniperus (C3) wood specimens that 14C date between 7.7 and 55 thousand years (kyr) B.P., providing a constrained record of plant response for southern California during the last glacial period. Atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]) ranged between 180 and 220 ppm during glacial periods, rose to 280 ppm before the industrial period, and is currently approaching 380 ppm in the modern atmosphere. Here we report on [delta]13C of Juniperus wood cellulose, and show that glacial and modern trees were operating at similar leaf- intercellular [CO2](ci)/atmospheric [CO2](ca) values. As a result, glacial trees were operating at ci values much closer to the CO2-compensation point for C3 photosynthesis than modern trees, indicating that glacial trees were undergoing carbon starvation. In addition, we modeled relative humidity by using [delta]18O of cellulose from the same Juniperus specimens and found that glacial humidity was 10% higher than that in modern times, indicating that differences in vapor-pressure deficits did not impose additional constrictions on ci/ca in the past. By scaling ancient ci values to plant growth by using modern relationships, we found evidence that C3 primary productivity was greatly diminished in southern California during the last glacial period.

…glacial humidity was 10% higher than that in modern times…” as the below maps show. This may indicate why the Cabal wants California and the US Southwest cleared of those pesky ‘Deplorables.’

At the most extreme stage of the last glaciation, most of Canada and much of the northern USA were covered by an ice sheet thousands of metres in thickness. Colder and often drier than present conditions predominated across most of the USA. The eastern deciduous and conifer forests were replaced by more open conifer woodlands with cooler-climate species of pines and a large component of spruce. The open spruce woodland and parkland extended somewhat further west than present, into what is now the prairie zone. As a result of aridity and lowering of sea level (which lowered inland water tables), much of Florida was covered by drifting sand dunes. Notably moister than present conditions occurred across much of the south-west, with open conifer woodlands and scrub common in areas that are now semi-desert.

1998 Carbon dioxide starvation, the development of C4 ecosystems, and mammalian evolution

ABSTRACT

The decline of atmospheric CO2 over the last 65 million years (Ma) resulted in the ‘CO2-starvation’ of terrestrial ecosystems and led to the widespread distribution of C4 plants, which are less sensitive to CO2 levels than are C3 plants. Global expansion of C4 biomass is recorded in the diets of mammals from Asia, Africa, North America, and South America during the interval from about 8 to 5 Ma. This was accompanied by the most significant Cenozoic faunal turnover on each of these continents, indicating that ecological changes at this time were an important factor in mammalian extinction. Further expansion of tropical C4 biomass in Africa also occurred during the last glacial interval confirming the link between atmospheric CO2 levels and C4 biomass response. Changes in fauna and flora at the end of the Miocene, and between the last glacial and interglacial, have previously been attributed to changes in aridity; however, an alternative explanation for a global expansion of C4 biomass is CO2 starvation of C3 plants when atmospheric CO2 levels dropped below a threshold significant to C3 plants. Aridity may also have been a factor in the expansion of C4 ecosystems but one that was secondary to, and perhaps because of, gradually decreasing CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere. Mammalian evolution in the late Neogene, then, may be related to the CO2 starvation of C3 ecosystems.

Lower CO2 levels PLUS lower moisture with a COLD boot from glaciation did lead to the evolution of C4 and CAM plants which use a different but more energy expensive chemical pathway to conserve water.

Carbon dioxide starvation, the development of C4 ecosystems, and mammalian evolution

…Changes in fauna and flora at the end of the Miocene, and between the last glacial and interglacial, have previously been attributed to changes in aridity; however, an alternative explanation for a global expansion of C4 biomass is carbon dioxide starvation of C3 plants when atmospheric carbon dioxide levels dropped below a threshold significant to C3 plants. Aridity may also have been a factor in the expansion of C4 ecosystems but one that was secondary to, and perhaps because of, gradually decreasing carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere. Mammalian evolution in the late Neogene, then, may be related to the carbon dioxide starvation of C3 ecosystems.

The Evolution of C4 Photosynthesis

SUMMARY

C4 photosynthesis is a series of anatomical and biochemical modifications that concentrate CO2 around the carboxylating enzyme Rubisco, thereby increasing photo-synthetic efficiency in conditions promoting high rates of photo-respiration. The C4 pathway independently evolved over 45 times in 19 families of angiosperms, and thus represents one of the most convergent of evolutionary phenomena. Most origins of C4 photosynthesis occurred in the dicots, with at least 30 lineages. C4 photosynthesis first arose in grasses, probably during the Oligocene epoch (24–35 million yr ago). The earliest C4 dicots are likely members of the Chenopodiaceae dating back 15–21 million yr; however, most C4 dicot lineages are estimated to have appeared relatively recently, perhaps less than 5 million yr ago. C4 photosynthesis in the dicots originated in arid regions of low latitude, implicating combined effects of heat, drought and/or salinity as important conditions promoting C4 evolution. Low atmospheric CO2 is a significant contributing factor, because it is required for high rates of photorespiration. Consistently, the appearance of C4 plants in the evolutionary record coincides with periods of increasing global aridification and declining atmospheric CO2. Gene duplication followed by neo- and nonfunctionalization are the leading mechanisms for creating C4 genomes, with selection for carbon conservation traits under conditions promoting high photo respiration being the ultimate factor behind the origin of C4 photosynthesis.

Speaking of plants, while scientists will lie to keep the grant money coming, plants do not.

This is what that paper now says:

2010 – Plant responses to low [CO2] of the past

Biomass production

Such studies have shown that the average biomass production of modern C3 plants is reduced by c. 50% when grown at low (180–220 ppm) vs modern (350–380 ppm) [CO2], when other conditions are optimal (Sage & Coleman, 2001; Fig. 5). There is, however, variation in this response among C3 species (Fig. 5), as well as within C3 species, whereby reductions in biomass may vary by 40–70% among genotypes (Ward & Strain, 1997; Hovenden & Schimanski, 2000; Mohan et al., 2004). In addition, as [CO2] declines to 150 ppm, biomass production may be reduced by as much as 92%, as was observed in A. theophrasti (Dippery et al., 1995; Figs 2, 5)….

Notice the LIE by omission? They are talking BIOMASS and not how well the plants do from seed germination to producing the seeds for the next generation during a growing season.. Under stress the seeds will not even start to grow.

Seed dormancy and ABA signaling

The biology of seeds can be divided in three important phases: development that includes zygotic embryogenesis, dormancy that prevents seeds from germinating under unfavorable conditions and germination (seed emergence). The transition between dormancy and germination represents a critical stage in the life cycle of higher plants and it is an important ecological and commercial trait. Seed germination is regulated by endogenous hormonal cues and external environmental signals such as water, low temperature and light, which influence whether an imbibed seed completes germination or remains dormant. Seed dormancy, a temporary quiescent state that is observed in seeds from many plants species, prevents untimely germination and ensures plant survival by adjusting vegetative development to seasonal changes in the environment. A dynamic balance between synthesis and catabolism of the abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellins (GAs) controls the equilibrium between dormancy and germination. At the molecular level, the ABA/GA balance is in part determined by the antagonistic control of ABA and GA on each other through their reciprocal regulation of the transcription of their metabolic genes.

The ABA, derived from epoxycarotenoid cleavage, serves as a plant-specific signal during development and in response to environmental stresses such as cold, drought and high concentrations of salt in the soil. The ABA also elicits, among others numerous physiological functions, the closure of stomatal pores to restrict transpiration, adjustment of metabolism to tolerate desiccation and cold temperatures, and inhibition seedlings growth. Likewise, ABA represses germination and is presumed to function to stabilize the dormant state. ABA, like other hormones, functions through a complex network of signaling pathways where the cell response is initiated by ABA perception which triggers downstream signaling cascades to induce the final physiological effects….

Even C4 plants do better in higher CO2 atmospheres.

C4 Plants (Water Use Efficiency) — Summary

…In summary, it is clear that C4 plants do indeed respond positively to increases in the air’s CO2 concentration by exhibiting reduced stomatal conductances and transpirational water losses, which contribute to increases in water-use efficiency.  Hence, knowledgeable researchers are suggesting that the long-held view that C4 plants will not be benefited by elevated concentrations of atmospheric CO2 needs to be replaced with this more correct assessment (Wand et al., 1999Zhu et al., 1999).  Clearly, as the atmospheric CO2 concentration increases, most C4 plants will almost certainly display increases in water-use efficiency, which should allow them to better deal with conditions of water stress.  Consequently, this phenomenon should allow plants of the future to expand their ranges into areas where they currently cannot survive due to limited soil moisture availability, thereby contributing to a great “greening of the globe.”

There is another more subtle aspect to the CO2 starvation level and that is the change in partial pressure as the elevation above sea level increases.

Impact of lower atmospheric carbon dioxide on tropical mountain ecosystems

. Carbon limitation due to lower ambient CO2 partial pressures had a significant impact on the distribution of forest on the tropical mountains, in addition to climate. Hence, tree line elevation should not be used to infer palaeotemperatures….

Effect of Low Glacial Atmospheric CO2 on Tropical African Montane Vegetation

Abstract

Estimates of glacial-interglacial climate change in tropical Africa have varied widely. Results from a process-based vegetation model show how montane vegetation in East Africa shifts with changes in both carbon dioxide concentration and climate. For the last glacial maximum, the change in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration alone could explain the observed replacement of tropical montane forest by a scrub biome. This result implies that estimates of the last glacial maximum tropical cooling based on tree- line shifts must be revised.”

Eco Physics Lab PDF: Glacial trees from the La Brea tar pits show physiological constraints of low CO2

While [CO2] does not vary with elevation, CO2 partial pressure decreases in proportion to total atmospheric pressure. Under modern conditions, partial pressures of CO2 at high-elevation sites are 10–30% lower than at low-elevation sites, producing an even more conservative comparison between glacial and modern conditions….

That means if the CO2 level is around 210 ppm you can kiss trees and other C3 plants growing above sea level goodby and that is most of the earth.

According to Barnola et al (1987) the level of CO2 in the global atmosphere during many tens of thousands of years spanning 30,000 to110,000 BP were below 200ppm. If this were true then the growth of C3 plants should be limited at the global scale because their net Photosynthesis is depressed as CO2 concentration in air decreases to less than about 250ubar (less than about 250ppmv)(McKay et al 1991) This would lead to the extinction of C3 plant species . This has however not been recorded by paleobotanists (Manum 1991).”

Again, plants do not lie but the scientists owned by the Cabal do.

Since I have mentioned Köppen several times and I remember this information but not who said it, I feel it only fair to post E.M. Smith’s (ChiefIO‘s) comment:

From Ice Age by John and Mary Gribbin (a wonderful read, gives the richness of the characters in the discovery of the ice ages, the history of the process, and a gentle introduction to some of the science involved.):

Pg.53: […]the single most important thing to emerge from these discussions was Koppen’s realization of the key season in the Ice Age saga. Adhemar and Croll had thought that the decisive factor in encouraging Ice to spread across the Northern Hemisphere must be the occurrence of extremely cold winters, resulting in increased snowfall. At first, Milankovitch had shared this view. But it was Koppen who pointed out that it is always cold enough for snow to fall in the Arctic winter, even today, and that the reason that the Northern Hemisphere is not in the grip of a full Ice Age is because the ‘extra’ snow melts away again in the summer.

[EMS: Note that the Southern Hemisphere is similarly irrelevant to the ice age cycle since it is always cold enough for snow to stay frozen. It just doesn’t change enough to matter.]

Pg 54: He reasoned that the way to encourage the ice to spread would be to have a reduction in summer warmth, because then less of the winter snowfall would melt. If less snow melted in summer than fell in winter, the ice sheets would grow – and once they had started to grow, the feedback effect of the way the ice and snow reflect away incoming solar energy would enhance the process.

Pg 57: It isn’t so much that Ice Ages occur when the astronomical influences conspire to produce particularly cool summers, rather what matters is that Interglacials only occur when the astronomical influences conspire to produce unusually warm summers, encouraging the ice to retreat. Without all three of the astronomical rhythms working in step this way, the Earth stays in a deep freeze.

End Quote.

So, to summarize:

1) The south pole doesn’t matter to the process, it’s always frozen.

2) We are normally in a long ice age and only pop out for short intervals when conditions are just right.

3) The ‘just right’ is Northern Hemisphere summers warm enough to melt the snow and ice.

4) Warm enough is when the N. hemisphere: must be pointed at the sun in summer when: at close approach to the sun with the right elliptical shape, with the pole tilted over far enough, with… or we freeze.

I would add a note that I think it is particularly illuminating that we are near the end of an Interglacial (next stop is an ice age), the only thing that keeps it away is the summer Arctic ice and snow melt. So what is the AGW crowd in histrionics about? That the Arctic ice and snow are not sticking through the summer… Think about….

Right now Earth is nearest the sun during northern winters, farthest from the sun during northern summers. If E.M. Smith’s theory is correct, we’re headed for another ice age in the near future. This shift is called the precession of the equinoxes and has a period of 26,000 years. In only 12,000 years the perihelion will be in July. The summer solstice, 21 June @ 65◦ N is what most scientist use for measuring the critical solar insolation.

As of 2014 the Holocene is exactly 11,717 years old (based on the end of the Younger Dryas cold interval). Or pretty much about half a precession cycle.” — William McClenney

Now, in 2023 it is 11726 years and we just went through the warm bump before the dive into the cold….

And one last word from Tony Heller:
