“This movie is terrible in so many ways, and yet it’s awesome, fascinating, and needs to be seen, so I highly recommend it.”
I think this is a Mike Lindell movie. It’s like an Amazon movie without Amazon. It was clearly made on a shoestring, and the people who made it, clearly tried to do something much bigger, and didn’t have the money, so they threw together what they had.
The misaligned audio is just horrible. HORRIBLE. Jaw-droppingly bad.
AND YET – it’s great.
NOW I understand what Dominion is doing, by ENABLING cheating.
NOW I understand why Colorado has gone to hell.
NOW I understand how the American government has been taken over by a literal shadow government, that will run roughshod over any state in which it can take over the electoral system.
NOW I understand how “they” put “warm bodies” like Jenna Griswold into positions that don’t need a master criminal – just a “cat” that’s dumb enough to be permanently away, so the mice can play all day – but who, in an “emergency” of the truth getting out, will follow orders and go along with a criminal conspiracy that they themselves are absolutely unqualified to confront, even if they wanted to do it.
This movie is a VERY clear vision of the criminality we are up against.
SO – I really recommend wasting an hour that you will never get back, seeing this, despite all the flaws.
TL;DR – This post explains three graphs which all gave me “AHA” moments when I saw them. They all reveal lies in public science, which are used to manipulate humanity. Strategic and fundamental lies in climate science and planetary history are used to justify more tactical lies in energy and medicine. Together, these three graphs indict the sabotaged and weaponized public science which is being used against humanity.
All of this conforms to a concise and remarkably prescient warning by President (and former General) Dwight D. Eisenhower.
While there is much deep science in each graph, certain basic principles are easily seen without a technical background. Those ideas provide the “wait a second” thought needed for proper scientific skepticism.
If you want to get the “executive tour” and finish this in under 5 minutes, just read through anything that says TL;DR in bold, and the images next to the headline text. If you have 30 minutes, watch the videos next to TL;DR. If you have an hour or two, read everything.
If you read THIS paragraph, then consider the slow route. Or consider doing the TL;DR fast track first, and then coming back for the full ride.

Introduction
I wanted to keep this short, but I know that’s almost impossible. I’ve put off this post until I was ready, but I wasn’t ready until I heard this music (see above), while reading over an older post that aged well in a variety of ways.
Why would we mass treat a virus with a drug which forces the virus to mutate, when mutation is how the virus creates new variants that reinfect the vaccinated? Before I explain the title contradiction, let me start with an admission. Most of my life, I have been very friendly with the pharmaceutical industry. I …
The point I saw was that mass formation psychosis has been used at all levels of science, and the only way for us to fix science now is
MASS FORMATION AWARENESS.
Be part of it. NOW.
Q = MFA
(The equation is a bit of a joke – but you are welcome to elaborate it humorously, fellow nerds.)
I had thought that maybe I was putting off this post until the last post was done, but the next post was always the last one, and I knew that I would always find just one more post to do first.
Nope. Now is the time. The last “Wheatie” post is in the can, strengthening my soul, and in hearing this song that I used for it, while knowing that we are on the right path, I’m suddenly ready.
There is a certain beautiful sadness in knowing that I’ve remained silent about even ONE lie for far too long. And now, with THREE beautiful lies – three FURIES against mankind – it’s time to take them all on.

It’s The Jabs
TL;DR – The Ethical Skeptic analyzed CDC data for causes of death in the US. By looking at deaths caused by blood and immune disorders, but not by COVID itself, vs. projections from pre-COVID data, two things show up – more “late” deaths related to COVID, and a MUCH BIGGER group of similar deaths that started precisely with the jabs.
You can see this in the graph as space between the two curves, widening first in Spring 2020 (twice), and much more in April 2021, coincident with the biggest deployment of the jabs.
I’m pretty sure Ethical Skeptic doesn’t believe in God, but that does nothing to keep me from saying “Thank God for Ethical Skeptic”. When Truth is an unyielding goal of individuals, they don’t need to agree on what Truth is, to create a world of good faith.
It was gil00 who brought me this tweet, wondering if it was important. I told her at the time that I needed to do a post on it, but that is just the beginning of its importance. Tradebait, Gail Combs, and the rest of the gang, also saw that this was a biggie.
The fact that it contains one of three graphs that “change everything”, should give you an idea of exactly how important I think it is.
ALL Americans need to understand this graph.
No – I take that back. All intelligent life within the sphere of influence of this planet and this moment need to understand this graph. THEY THE PEOPLE need to understand exactly who they’re dealing with.
Everything begins with the blood – and sequels from there… this is the other canary in the coal mine aside from rare cancers…
Before telling you WHY, let me assure you that there are MANY more graphs like this, which will all say roughly the same thing – IF one is honest enough to let the data talk. I choose this graph because it’s probably the clearest and simplest that I’ve seen so far – due in large part to its creator, The Ethical Skeptic, or “TES” as I will refer to him now.
We have talked about TES’s work before, since he emerged as one of the most skillful and impossible-to-censor critics of what might be called “Fauci science”. I may quibble with minor points on his more far-reaching hypotheses and theories, but I always find that his general and bigger principles “age spectacularly well”, and are best taken very seriously at the earliest possible moment.
Again, hence the need for this post.
Here is what I said originally – it was my “initial reaction”. You don’t have to follow it too closely, unless you find it all obvious. I’m going to explain this in detail.
By looking just at blood and immune disorders, and comparing mortality of 2018-2019 (pre-COVID) as a baseline (which was then extended by seasonal extrapolation into 2020, 2021 and 2022, with normal population increase meaning a slight increase in deaths), and then looking at 2018-2022 actual for all years, using the actual figures, but removing COVID, one can see the population reduction effect of the jabs, as the excess cardio and immune mortality, which just keeps increasing with time.
It’s clear as a bell in the data, when one compares to the “expected deaths based on the last two years of pre-COVID times”.
The striking thing is how STRONGLY the sum which includes 2020 and 2021 deviates away from the prior years, starting exactly with the jabs.
2020 includes TESTING of jabs. 2021 includes DEPLOYMENT of jabs. 2022 includes BOOSTING of jabs.
It’s a depop shot. And it works. All they would have had to do is dial up the dose just enough, while normalizing the deaths with the media, and it’s totally tunable to the rate of depop that one desires.
OK – so what does all that mean?
Let’s take it slower.
First of all, at any time, you can go to theethicalskeptic.com and check out his article on this topic, which does not YET have THIS particular graph (except in the comments), but which will likely have said graph in the next two parts of the article.
I also call your attention to this highlighted point made near the beginning of the article.
Nonetheless, by the end of 2021 it had become abundantly clear that US citizens were not just dying of Covid-19 to the excess, they were also now dying of something else, and at a rate which eventually became higher than that of Covid itself.
The Ethical Skeptic, Houston, We Have a Problem (Part 1 of 3)
If you just read that, where TES couches his words VERY carefully, and you know what he’s hinting at, then you know why I said this is one of the three big graphs you need to understand. He ain’t lyin’. My only quibble is that I suspect that his estimate of “decades” of damage to health policy may be conservative, and “centuries” is a horrifying possibility.
Are you ready to dig into the graph?
GOOD. Here we go.
Let’s start with some ACRONYMS.
NHCS = National Center for Health Statistics
MCD = MCoD = Multiple Cause of Death
UCoD = Underlying Cause of Death
ICD-10 = International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision
The basic graph is DEATHS going up on the left, and TIME going across from left to right, over a period of YEARS.
The DEATHS on the left are showing from 350 per week (at the bottom left) to 950 per week (at the top left). That means that we are not seeing the 0-350 region, which is featureless and below the portion of the graph that we can see. It’s a legitimate suppression – it’s not hiding anything except relative magnitudes of the changes to a SMALL extent, and it helps us see the differences in those changes better. It’s a magnifier – just remember that it’s there.
The title says that this is US-NCHS data for Multiple Cause of Death, meaning it’s looking at all causes of death listed on death certificates in the US and then databased by the National Center for Health Statistics, which is part of the CDC. This database is then searchable online.
The title also says that this data is for SELECTED cause-of-death codes listed in the ICD-10 system. The data runs up to week 29 of 2022, and is adjusted for the lag in reporting to CDC at the end (see right-hand side).
Let’s jump briefly to the topic of those codes.
Using the drop-down buttons you can see in the image, TES has chosen death codes 50-89, but has excluded COVID-19. Those codes are briefly described as “diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs” (but excluding COVID-19). TES has also selected ALL ages.
In the lower left you can see several descriptions of that different groups of the D-codes mean. Generally speaking, these are related to blood, blood-forming organs, and some immune problems. We will quote from TES himself about these later.
This does NOT include cardiac arrests, strokes, and certain other “stereotypical” clot-shot diseases, but it DOES include more “obscure” diseases that we can intuitively expect would be affected by both COVID and the CLOT SHOT. Thus, it serves as a kind of sensitive test for “something bad in the blood”.
A critical point for understanding is in the subtitle below the title.
2020/21/22 Compared to Baseline 2018/19
What this means is that what we are really doing OVERALL is looking at the 3 years of data “from and after Wuhan COVID”, 2020-2022, and comparing those numbers to “before Wuhan COVID”, 2018-2019. This explains why there are TWO curves on the graph. But in order to do this VALIDLY, we have to PROJECT the numbers from 2018-2019 FORWARD into the next three years, since the baseline would automatically increase on its own. Thus, we have TWO CURVES that run for all 5 years.
It helps to look at the red dashed curve first. This is listed as 2018-2019 Baseline 5 week moving average. Don’t worry about the “moving average” stuff. What this does is to take a bunch of scattered points and smooths them into closer points that can be used to draw a curve through them. It’s a neat trick to create the “best curve through scattered points”.
You can see that this is a bumpy “sawtooth” curve, higher in the winter, lower in the summer, and slowly rising over time. Typically, over time, this is what you see. Every year can be predicted largely from one or more prior years. You just take the past, find all the patterns you can, and project them all into the future.
There is a related red note in the lower left corner of the graph that says “1.4% baseline growth rate”. This is the annual growth in the baseline numbers from 2018-2019. The numbers vary rather strongly from month to month, but not much year from year, meaning that it’s easy to predict what they SHOULD look like in future years, such as 2020, 2021, and 2022. Each year will look pretty much like the last, months and weeks will go up and down, but day to day it will be 1.4% higher than the previous year, following the patterns of previous years.
This idea works remarkably well.
OK – so what is the pink solid line? THAT is the ACTUAL NUMBERS, for all five years, from week to week, using a 7-week moving average, and reporting it as the LAST week of the seven weeks. This is where we’re going to find any interesting phenomena.
The use of a DIFFERENT number of weeks for the multi-week moving average serves as a kind of sanity check in the region where both curves derive from the same ACTUAL data (2018-2019). The curves will not be much different, and the differences are just an artifact of the methodology, but if you see a big difference in that region of the same actual data in both curves, it’s probably meaningful, and probably something WRONG in your processing of the data.
Any minor differences you DO see in the region of actual data vs. itself (2018-2019), serve as a nice comparison of SCALE to any systematic differences you see in the 2020-2022 region, which is the region of ACTUAL DATA (pink solid) versus PROJECTED DATA (red dashed).
For example, if TES has a similar graph for some code like automobile accidents or choking on food, you can confidently predict that ACTUAL data for 2020-2022 should match the curve for PROJECTED DATA from 2018-2019 fairly closely – apart from any unexpected societal effects of COVID such as lockdowns, but those would then appear rationally in the data.
SO WHAT DO WE SEE?
TL;DR – the actual deaths begin to exceed the projected deaths in stages, with a lesser jump happening due to COVID itself, but a far bigger jump (over 2.5 times as big) happening after people began taking the jabs in a big way in April of 2021.
Looking at the two curves with the innocence of a child, we see them separating in stages. We see them separate a certain amount (call it 1X) during spring and early summer of 2020 (call this region 1), then separating about twice as much (2-3X) during summer, fall and winter of 2020, and early spring of 2021 (region 2). Then, in late spring of 2021, the separation grows suddenly and substantially (7-10X) (region 3), and it just keeps growing into 2022 (15X+).
This is NOT an accident. TES knew that the vaccines began being given in a big way around week 14 of 2021 (early mid-April), as shown by this graph.
TL;DR – this additional graph shows how the slope (derivative) of total jab doses given is used to see when most of the jabs were administered. This is near the beginning of dosing, and explains the sudden rapid widening between the two curves in the primary graph. It’s a “pandemic of vaccination” much like COVID itself.
Based on this date, TES looked for ICD codes which show a dramatic WIDENING at “Critical Inflection 1” – meaning when the jabs were introduced (what I called the beginning of region 3), VERSUS any prior widening in spring of 2020, when COVID-19 of the Wuhan strain was introduced (what I called the beginning of “region 1”).
Stated differently, TES is only counting things which appeared dramatically MORE for the jabs, than they did for COVID itself.
Basically, TES is being “too fair” to the jabs. We know that there are many causes of death by both COVID and the JABS, “because spike protein”, but if it’s not overwhelmingly obvious IN THE DATA that they’re significantly and primarily due to the jabs, he’s not counting them.
He’s letting a bunch of jab deaths “get away”, to make sure that he’s indicting only real jab deaths.
As a side-note, this is what Gregg Phillips did with True The Vote’s geospatial data, by only counting the most blatant and obviously organized mule data (10 drop boxes and 5 stash houses). It becomes almost impossible to criticize the science, when data is winnowed down to exclude even the most marginally debatable data.
Deny the unethical skeptics even a foothold, and they cannot even begin to raise an unethical argument.
Pretty BOSS LEVEL if you ask me.
Here is what TES has to say about the ICD codes that he used.
With regard to these select ICD-10 codes, I have endeavored to highlight only those which have exhibited a stark difference between their arrival patterns during the 2020 pandemic period, and that period after MMWR Week 14 2021. While there are indeed increases in deaths incumbent inside the other ICD-10 codes, those increases appeared to plausibly conform to their same arrival patterns for 2020 as well. In other words, they appeared to be heavily Covid-related in their dynamics, both before and after the Week 14 2021 inflection.
Of particular concern, are those deaths which relate to body-wide regulatory systems as opposed to specific organs or causes. In other words, cancer and lymphomas, heart, autonomous myocarditis/pericarditis/conductive disorders, injuries to the liver and kidneys, etc. These are not only the canaries in the coal mine in terms of pathology, but may serve to indicate as well that a pervasive systemic disruption is at play inside the average US citizen human physiology, especially over the last 71 weeks. These are the death groups which exhibit the most stark trend of increase post MMWR Week 14 2021.
There have nevertheless been some attempts to “take down” TES’s analysis, but after two of them were burnt to a crisp on Twitter, it’s pretty clear that these attacks were not “ethical skepticism”, but in fact beautiful examples of what has happened to science in the wake of politicization and corruption. One academic was even outed by a sharp Twitter user as a practiced shill for the Faucism narrative, referred to humorously as “a regular on the fact-check circuit”.
NOW, knowing what the graph means – that the cure turned out to be worse than the disease (something which Trump said could not happen, thus forcing a coup to maintain the plot) – it is really worth it to go back and read TES’s article, if you have not already.
It’s tough science, but even if you just “kinda get it”, it’s WORTH IT.
It is important to read the comments at the end, too. Not only does TES have links to his Twitter defenses, and the graph highlighted in this article appears – there is comment by somebody who did a rough calculation based on mRNA therapies that have failed human trials in the past. Based on his calculations…. well, let me just quote.
Great work. I did a small quick model using a Gaussian Distribution over 9 years to see what the numbers would be each year for “events” given 80% of the total population vaccinated had active ingredients and would develop events similar to past other mRNA failed trials. 7,887 deaths per week is about 179% above my model for 2022. If the past is indeed playing out here, this excess deaths per week will increase by a factor of 9 over the next year. Most adverse events in past similar trials did not take place until year three. By year six, 84% of the cohort was positive for adverse events.
TL;DR – It’s now very likely that these late jab deaths will increase dramatically during the next few years, based on mRNA therapy trial information which was available but seemingly ignored.
Watch this video if you have 3 minutes.
I would even go so far as to say that this highly censored video of an alleged mRNA trial participant from several years ago (see above), breaking his NDA and claiming serious cardiac problems affecting almost all of the people in his trial, may not be a fraud.
If that video is entirely true, then based on his numbers, my assessment is that his trial was very likely a secret depopulation trial flying under the false flag of a secret mRNA therapy trial. Which may then make COVID-19 and the jabs, the mother of all false flags.
In my opinion it is important to force the finding and recognition of the truth, so that we can begin saving the people who are not lucky.
Any effort to work toward #TeamHeadsOnPikes to prevent the next one of these incidents from happening, is a separate problem I leave for others. I’m a bit too good at forgiving.
TL;DR – There has been plenty of data telling us that the jabs are problematic, but now we are faced with very clear proof that CDC must easily see in their own data, yet pretends not to see. Combine these two memes.
The illogical arguments conceal real goals and tactics.
Buckle up. They know we know, and they have a plan for it.

Carbon Dioxide Is Life’s Friend and Savior
TL;DR – This graph shows terrestrial life’s remarkably high tolerance for carbon dioxide (which is basically recirculating plant life), but poor tolerance of meteoric impacts during times of low CO2 and preliminary glaciation. We are being severely gaslit, to see climate science backwards, and to operate from reflexive fears which prevent full, true and larger understanding.
The graph you see above is NOT the first one that I saw, which blew my mind, but it’s very similar. The one I saw was basically the orange line, and may have been GEOCARB III or a comparable study. It had the exact same principle features, which told me the same things.
Apparently I missed the “mass formation psychosis” in climate science, and just happened to walk in with my “They Live” glasses on.
Let me state for the record that “I am neither a professional geologist nor an earth scientist, but I have loved the subjects my whole life, and I can read a graph.”
More crucially, I have always been an “allied science fan” of geology and earth science – in part because earth chemistry and earth biology happen on this wonderful planet called Earth. Follow either of these sciences back to the basics, and earth science matters.
Back to the graph.
It’s worth explaining the basics of the scale across the bottom, which is time.
We are at the very end of the graph – a slice so thin that our lives will not show up even under a magnifier. Bring out a microscope and see a tiny hair’s breadth under it. That’s us.
We are at the most recent edge of the Neogene – which is the N on the bottom of the graph. That N is 23 million years. The “preparatory ancestry” of anything strongly resembling our kind easily fits into that, as best as we can tell. You might call it “the age of man“, where man includes pre-men and barely men.
Probably even these guys and gals.
Humans trying to understand climate science.
Next to the left is the Paleogene, abbreviated Pg. This is the “age of mammals“. You will note that while it is much bigger than the Neogene, it is still a VERY SMALL fraction of the history of life on the planet.
Let’s blow it up a bit, using a DIFFERENT type of graph, which is more of a timeline. More recent is at the top.
The three most significant climate events of that time period are on the right. They all bear explanation.
First, Antarctica got its first RECENT permanent ice sheets only a bit over 50 million years ago, near the END of this prior period, and the start of the “age of man”. When you see NOVA specials about Antarctic dinosaurs, or read about fossil specimens from Antarctica, this is why you see them. Antarctica used to be WARM, and gradually cooled down.
Interestingly, Antarctica has never* (*not settled) strayed far from the South Pole. It has not wandered “north-south” as much as many other land masses.
LIFE has at most times covered the entire globe. Life had not RETREATED from the poles to the extent that is has now. Indeed, polar life may have assisted in recovery from some mass extinctions, where prompt damage occurred primarily at the middle latitudes due to normal circulation patterns.
Next, look at the event called “PETM”, which stands for Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum. It’s actually a SPIKE that looks like the thin spike in THIS graph.
This graph is looking at global temperatures (green curve) as determined from oxygen isotopes, VERSUS time, across the “age of mammals”. Recent is on the right.
WOW. Will you look at how much temperatures have fallen. And look at that crazy chaotic glaciation in the lower right, flirting repeatedly with the snowball Earth of the Permian Extinction (to be discussed in a bit).
I don’t know about y’all, but if I had to be concerned about something, it might be that.
TL;DR – it is impossible to look a graphs which show life bottoming hard against planetary freeze, in the big picture of carbon dioxide (recirculating plant life) bottoming hard in conjunction, and walk away with any true sympathy for worries about increasing CO2 and warming. CO2 in times of its relative absence is either not a problem, or a “good problem”. It appears to me that a cultivated science error has been used to create a social hysteria and then a mass formation psychosis.
In a sense, we are ALL the “polar bears of the dinosaurs”. Is that a good thing? I think it’s worth asking, even just theoretically, never implying the need to “do something” about it.
Anyway, that little SPIKE you see in the spiky curve to the left, is an actual example of a “climate change crisis”. It was probably due to sudden period of massive volcanic activity throwing a bunch of CO2 into the air, although that’s not “settled science”. If there was a weird “solar excursion”, or undersea heating of the oceans (see extremely useful “non-eruptive volcanism” proposals by TES for part of recent global warming), then it could have been something else. Whatever it was, it seems to have been sharp enough to have probably been a single thing.
Note also that Earth got to the same point some years later, anyway.
Don’t fear the seasons. They’re not the reaper.
Lastly, we see in the timeline, at the beginning of the Paleogene, the K-Pg mass extinction, (also called, in its evidentiary form, the K-T boundary) which was almost certainly due to an asteroid impact, but possibly also reinforced by subsequent volcanism.
You may recall Steve’s post about this, but if you don’t, then take a quick detour and refresh your memory on the details.
4.567 billion years ago, our solar system began to “condense” from the nebula. Clumps of dust particles began to come together, part of a poorly-understood process that eventually led to the planets. The nebula had a potpourri of “stuff” in it. Mostly elements up to iron, with a heavy leavening of ones after iron, created in supernovas or even neutron star collisions. (Most gold is believed to have come out of neutron star collisions…next time you admire that gold coin or your wedding band…think about where that stuff has been! Any of it not from a collision got blasted out of a supernova at 70,000,000 miles per hour.)……
Steve explained that while most of paleontology favors the “impact theory”, there has been a long-standing volcanic theory of the extinction, and even a group who believes that BOTH theories are not only correct, but connected.
With my taste for “AND logic”, you can predict where I would most likely fall in that debate – in the “it’s both of them, and they’re connected” camp.
Does that sound sketchy? Maybe a little too much of a coincidence? Is Wolf going out on a limb here?
Notice that by mentioning that Steve had mentioned this “theory of both”, I used PEER INFLUENCE to change your minds. Now I will use MSM acceptance to further change your minds.
TL;DR – Theories about impacts leading to increased volcanism also implicated in extinctions, are quite appealing to me, personally, as a kind of “general volcanism” (impact + rebound), but the whole thing is NOT settled science by any means. Just remember what I always say about “AND logic”. It solves scientific divisions, too.
But wait – I want to make a point about the Fake News in action, spinning science to keep it divided.
Yes, you see the “AND” logic right in the title. And if you read the article, the whole point is that there is increasing evidence of a causal connection between the impact and the volcanism.
But notice the wording in the title versus the subtitle. The title tells you, but does not emphasize, that the conjoint, causatively connected, unified theory brings two scientific camps together, both being correct. Then the subtitle tries to shift things over to one of the explanations, and to minimize the role of the impact.
“The 160 million-year reign of the ‘terrible lizards’ may actually have ended due to events in India rather than an asteroid crashing into the sea off the coast of Mexico as previously thought“
“RATHER THAN”?
“Rather than” an asteroid the size of Mount Everest?
It’s very clear folks – THEY WANT YOU DIVIDED.
By now you know, it’s just what they do. DIVIDE AND CONQUER. Indeed, I tend to think it’s what they’re TRAINED to do.
The FAKE NEWS controls science FAR MORE than most scientists are willing to admit.
But let’s get back to our story of the unified theory of impact AND rebound volcanism.
The primary CLIMATIC effects of the asteroid impact are believed to have been blast heating, followed by an “impact winter”, followed by chaotic climate, possibly including a greenhouse due to vaporized CO2 and SO2, followed by the same thing from further classic volcanism. The whole planet was definitely MESSED UP.
TL;DR –
HOT (impact). COLD (darkness). HOT AGAIN (greenhouse).
Then repeat the latter two for post-impact volcanism.
A constant, unified pattern of impact extinctions, layered on the preexisting, livable climate, at a surprisingly wide range of levels of carbon dioxide.
So what was there before that?
THE DINOSAURS. That is “K”, the Cretaceous Period (in English).
You will notice that T (or Tr), J and K are the three big periods of the dinosaurs with which most of us are familiar – the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous.
Let’s look at our graph again.
Yes. This “age of dinosaurs” was a period of warm temperatures and high carbon dioxide. Both much higher than what we have now, but – bear with me – there was a lot of LIFE, too – am I not right?
Well, what’s that stuff to the LEFT of the “age of dinosaurs” – around the end of “C” (Carboniferous) and the beginning of “P” (Permian – the “age of reptiles”)?
Why, it looks like low carbon dioxide, almost as low as we have now. In FACT, if you look even further back in time to the left – at the ages of sea organisms (Cm, O, S), fishes (D), and amphibians (C), what you’re basically seeing is a CRASH of carbon dioxide, ending in LOW CO2 around C and P.
And interesting that this slide had already resulted in massive glaciation of the planet, which existed at the beginning of the Permian.
Interesting that there were THREE BIG EXTINCTIONS along that slide, at O, D, and finally at P.
There is a LOT of debate about these extinctions, and particularly the near-total Permian (P) Extinction, also sometimes known as the P-T extinction event, because it occurred at the END of the Permian and the beginning of the Triassic.
Of course, global warming explanations of this event are favored by the single-minded corporate media, but IMO some of the best theories of the P-T extinction are actually based on an “iceball Earth” scenario, for which there is some interesting geological evidence.
The idea that an already glaciated Earth (Permian) was sent into deep freeze by an impact and response volcanism makes sense, and we would expect the extinctions to be more extensive than with the less glaciated or non-glaciated Cretaceous extinction of the dinosaurs, which happened to a generally warmer planet, thus sparing mammals and birds.
TL;DR – As the most significant extinctions have occurred at times of low CO2 and high glaciation, the main danger to life on Earth seems not to be global warming from CO2, which protects life from near-total extinctions. The main threat is solar blocking (see Bill Gates) and deep cooling, caused by meteoric impacts and rebound volcanism, which is more dangerous during times of low CO2 and high glaciation, like now or during the Permian Extinction.
In fact, I find the idea that we can use a single extinction mechanism repeatedly – a mechanism of “impact plus response volcanism, leading to plant death and further crises”, with the differences in outcome depending upon the size and location of the impact, plus the prior state of the climate, to be very satisfying – particularly in explaining why we find evidence for ALL of the various divided theories.
Furthermore, if response volcanism is a correct theory, then the general warmth and higher carbon dioxide of the “age of dinosaurs” may be explained by a truly massive impact being not only the cause of the P-T extinction, but also creating hundreds of millions of years of increased volcanism in its wake.
But all of that is debatable.
The big picture is this. Look at the graph again.
TL;DR – The Earth has supported life easily for eons because of MORE carbon dioxide, not less. There is no “climate emergency”, and certainly not one related to increasing carbon dioxide for ANY reason at this point. If anything, incipient normal solar cooling and periodic ice age glaciation are actual climate concerns for society. But that is another story for another time.

(Real World by Matchbox 20)
Green Energy Is Pol Pot Madness
TL;DR – Even if there was a “climate emergency” (which there is not, see above), and even if “green energy” worked (which it does not, see graph), and even if green energy could “save the environment” (which it absolutely does the opposite, due to energy density fundamentals), what we are doing by forcing a sudden transition to a non-working energy infrastructure, is so utterly preposterous, wrong, and irrational, that it must be stopped.
This graph is the smoking gun of an intentional civilizational crash. It is our duty to grab the steering wheel and stop it.
This graph is probably the simplest to explain because it does not depend on the truth or falsehood of the underlying bad science that has been used to justify what is being done now.
There are some things you just don’t do.
It’s like an insane person coming into your house screaming “DANGER, DANGER” and pointing a gun at you. Even if there is some reason, it doesn’t matter – an insane person is pointing a gun at you, and THAT is the immediate danger. The evil person or people who SENT the insane person to your house must be dealt with, too, or this will keep happening. But that can happen after we survive the insane attack.
Humanity is being “swatted” by people made insane by – you guessed it – mass formation psychosis.
TL;DR – One cannot move humanity from the top curve in red, to the bottom curve in yellow, without killing most of them. It’s impossible. It means poverty, chaos, and destruction. The closest thing to what “somebody” is forcing on the West, is what China and the CIA did the the people of Cambodia, using the highly deluded Khmer Rouge, who insisted that all Cambodians had to leave cities and become agrarian.
Khmer Rouge Flag (Pol Pot)
Forcing humanity to “quit realistic energy now” is perfectly analogous to Pol Pot saying “We all have to become farmers now” at gunpoint, which killed millions of Cambodians in a horror of totalitarian brutality and systematic societal error.
If you don’t think we have a deluded set of Americans who could carry this out, just look at Antifa, filled with mentally ill “trans” males, all of them “politically fluid” and ready to serve the craziest causes, and then politically reverse on orders, the very next day. Antifa is being protected by the DOJ and FBI, which are also ready to stop or hinder any groups which oppose Antifa.
Now you can understand why Antifa and FBI helped each other on January Sixth.
They’re both on the same side – the side of the genocide.
And now Biden wants 87,000 federal “IRS Police”?
What this graph shows is the equivalent of telling a patient addicted to barbiturates that they must quit cold turkey, which is always fatal.
It’s like telling a lifelong juvenile diabetic that they must quit insulin NOW because insulin didn’t come from their own pancreas, and so it’s “foreign”, and no good. They must transition to “mRNA injections in the pancreas” right now! RIGHT NOW!!!
Yup. It is THAT insane – that malevolent – to say “quit all non-green energy now”. To even say “do it in the next century” is foolishness of historic proportions.
We are already seeing the effects of the insanity in the beginning energy problems we are having now. But we have seen NOTHING yet.
Add to THAT insanity, what amounts to yet another foolish collectivization of agriculture, which “error” of communism has repeatedly killed millions, in the Soviet Union and China, as well as in Cambodia, and you can see that the errors of a misled scientific elite are always catastrophic, whether intentional or accidental.
TL;DR – Eisenhower predicted that, in addition to the military industrial complex (MIC), a scientific and technological elite (STE) would become a danger to America and the world, and he even understood and predicted that this very moment might arrive.
If you have time (16 minutes), this presentation is critical to understanding the moment. Every second is worth hearing.
If you get the sense that somebody of malevolent intent was listening to Eisenhower’s speech, and began figuring out how to sabotage his vision of balance and sense, by pursuing a course to enhance and take advantage of precisely the dangers that Eisenhower warned about, then you are not alone.
Three days from now, after half a century in the service of our country, I shall lay down the responsibilities of office as, in traditional and solemn ceremony, the authority of the Presidency is vested in my successor.
This evening I come to you with a message of leave-taking and farewell, and to share a few final thoughts with you, my countrymen.
Like every other citizen, I wish the new President, and all who will labor with him, Godspeed. I pray that the coming years will be blessed with peace and prosperity for all.
Our people expect their President and the Congress to find essential agreement on issues of great moment, the wise resolution of which will better shape the future of the Nation.
My own relations with the Congress, which began on a remote and tenuous basis when, long ago, a member of the Senate appointed me to West Point, have since ranged to the intimate during the war and immediate post-war period, and, finally, to the mutually interdependent during these past eight years.
In this final relationship, the Congress and the Administration have, on most vital issues, cooperated well, to serve the national good rather than mere partisanship, and so have assured that the business of the Nation should go forward. So, my official relationship with the Congress ends in a feeling, on my part, of gratitude that we have been able to do so much together.

We now stand ten years past the midpoint of a century that has witnessed four major wars among great nations. Three of these involved our own country. Despite these holocausts America is today the strongest, the most influential and most productive nation in the world. Understandably proud of this pre-eminence, we yet realize that America’s leadership and prestige depend, not merely upon our unmatched material progress, riches and military strength, but on how we use our power in the interests of world peace and human betterment.
******
Throughout America’s adventure in free government, our basic purposes have been to keep the peace; to foster progress in human achievement, and to enhance liberty, dignity and integrity among people and among nations. To strive for less would be unworthy of a free and religious people. Any failure traceable to arrogance, or our lack of comprehension or readiness to sacrifice would inflict upon us grievous hurt both at home and abroad.
Progress toward these noble goals is persistently threatened by the conflict now engulfing the world. It commands our whole attention, absorbs our very beings. We face a hostile ideology-global in scope, atheistic in character, ruthless in purpose, and insidious in method. Unhappily the danger it poses promises to be of indefinite duration. To meet it successfully, there is called for, not so much the emotional and transitory sacrifices of crisis, but rather those which enable us to carry forward steadily, surely, and without complaint the burdens of a prolonged and complex struggle-with liberty at stake. Only thus shall we remain, despite every provocation, on our charted course toward permanent peace and human betterment.
Crises there will continue to be. In meeting them, whether foreign or domestic, great or small, there is a recurring temptation to feel that some spectacular and costly action could become the miraculous solution to all current difficulties. A huge increase in newer elements of our defense; development of unrealistic programs to cure every ill in agriculture; a dramatic expansion in basic and applied research-these and many other possibilities, each possibly promising in itself, may be suggested as the only way to the road we which to travel.
But each proposal must be weighed in the light of a broader consideration: the need to maintain balance in and among national programs-balance between the private and the public economy, balance between cost and hoped for advantage-balance between the clearly necessary and the comfortably desirable; balance between our essential requirements as a nation and the duties imposed by the nation upon the individual; balance between action of the moment and the national welfare of the future. Good judgment seeks balance and progress; lack of it eventually finds imbalance and frustration.
The record of many decades stands as proof that our people and their government have, in the main, understood these truths and have responded to them well, in the face of stress and threat. But threats, new in kind or degree, constantly arise. I mention two only.
******
A vital element in keeping the peace is our military establishment. Our arms must be mighty, ready for instant action, so that no potential aggressor may be tempted to risk his own destruction.
Our military organization today bears little relation to that known by any of my predecessors in peace time, or indeed by the fighting men of World War II or Korea.
Until the latest of our world conflicts, the United States had no armaments industry. American makers of plowshares could, with time and as required, make swords as well. But now we can no longer risk emergency improvisation of national defense; we have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions. Added to this, three and a half million men and women are directly engaged in the defense establishment. We annually spend on military security more than the net income of all United State corporations.
This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence-economic, political, even spiritual-is felt in every city, every state house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.
Akin to, and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our industrial-military posture, has been the technological revolution during recent decades.
In this revolution, research has become central; it also becomes more formalized, complex, and costly. A steadily increasing share is conducted for, by, or at the direction of, the Federal government.
Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been over shadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields. In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers.
The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be regarded.
Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.
It is the task of statesmanship to mold, to balance, and to integrate these and other forces, new and old, within the principles of our democratic system-ever aiming toward the supreme goals of our free society.
******
Another factor in maintaining balance involves the element of time. As we peer into society’s future, we-you and I, and our government-must avoid the impulse to live only for today, plundering, for our own ease and convenience, the precious resources of tomorrow. We cannot mortgage the material assets of our grandchildren without risking the loss also of their political and spiritual heritage. We want democracy to survive for all generations to come, not to become the insolvent phantom of tomorrow.
******
Down the long lane of the history yet to be written America knows that this world of ours, ever growing smaller, must avoid becoming a community of dreadful fear and hate, and be, instead, a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect.
Such a confederation must be one of equals. The weakest must come to the conference table with the same confidence as do we, protected as we are by our moral, economic, and military strength. That table, though scarred by many past frustrations, cannot be abandoned for the certain agony of the battlefield.
Disarmament, with mutual honor and confidence, is a continuing imperative. Together we must learn how to compose difference, not with arms, but with intellect and decent purpose. Because this need is so sharp and apparent I confess that I lay down my official responsibilities in this field with a definite sense of disappointment. As one who has witnessed the horror and the lingering sadness of war-as one who knows that another war could utterly destroy this civilization which has been so slowly and painfully built over thousands of years-I wish I could say tonight that a lasting peace is in sight.
Happily, I can say that war has been avoided. Steady progress toward our ultimate goal has been made. But, so much remains to be done. As a private citizen, I shall never cease to do what little I can to help the world advance along that road.
******
So-in this my last good night to you as your President-I thank you for the many opportunities you have given me for public service in war and peace. I trust that in that service you find somethings worthy; as for the rest of it, I know you will find ways to improve performance in the future.
You and I-my fellow citizens-need to be strong in our faith that all nations, under God, will reach the goal of peace with justice. May we be ever unswerving in devotion to principle, confident but humble with power, diligent in pursuit of the Nation’s great goals.
To all the peoples of the world, I once more give expression to America’s prayerful and continuing inspiration:
We pray that peoples of all faiths, all races, all nations, may have their great human needs satisfied; that those now denied opportunity shall come to enjoy it to the full; that all who yearn for freedom may experience its spiritual blessings; that those who have freedom will understand, also, its heavy responsibilities; that all who are insensitive to the needs of others will learn charity; that the scourges of poverty, disease and ignorance will be made to disappear from the earth, and that, in the goodness of time, all peoples will come to live together in a peace guaranteed by the binding force of mutual respect and love.
Final Musical Selection
(Dedicated to Trump’s friend Shinzo Abe.)
President Trump & Melania share traditional Japanese dinner with Prime Minister Abe & wife.
Yesterday evening began a long discussion of Dark Brandon’s little speech with the odd lighting that created a Nazi eagle illusion in Independence Hall (yes, they’re THAT evil).
(H/T RAC)
Among the things I said was this:
I think this was for the literally satanic part of his audience.
This was a “rite” of some kind.
Later, I said this:
Several of the top Nazis were occultists. Two of the top BLM gals are practicing satanists. Hollywood loves it like a good fetish.
I am certain there is a big satanic component behind this puppet government.
Gil00 asked me to expand on this, as well as other comments further down the page.
First of all, do read Sadie’s comments HERE, which I am also including now.
DP posted this tweet upthread, but I wanted to make a separate thread about it.
Today—9/1—is the start of False Flag season. The numbers 9 and 1 almost always show up in their major ops (9/11, COVID-19, Route 91 Las Vegas concert).
So no, Ric, I don’t think this was a “huge mistake” at all. I think the date and set are deliberate. I think this is a ritual or, at the very least, the official start of their new psy-op for false flag season.
Dark blood red background, evil and condescending tone of voice & squinting eyes.
Negative words & themes – and constant condemnation.
4chan weighs in on The Ritual. Predictions are that they’re laying the groundwork for 1) arresting Trump, 2) executive order “fortifying” the upcoming mid-terms (prediction not pictured in screenshot), or 3) assassination psy-op (wouldn’t surprise me at this point if that’s how they discard the puppet). Only posting this in case one of the above actually happens. They’re clearly laying the groundwork for something.
I don’t really have insight into what the satanic or Luciferian goals are here, but I want to talk about some things that will assure you of exactly what we are up against, and why your faith in God – and from that, in His divine providence for America – through the most terrible times – is absolutely critical.
First, let’s look at the symbolism of “the red and the black”. The following web site is an amazing reference. I really encourage you to check it out, to see examples of red/black occult symbolism.
“To worship Lucifer, one must wear mostly red and black.”
Note that not everybody who ever wore red and black was a satanist or Luciferian. You can rightly assume that every occultist worshiping Lucifer has likewise not worn black and red, either. That’s not what I’m saying, and not what the reference implies. However, you can be sure that there are people in Hollywood and the music industry, who are actively promoting satanic and Luciferian memes, actions, images and references, to be fronted by the people they control. A fashion choice of red and black often has MEANING. Remember that LIES are fine with these people. Implications that their “stars” are on a satanic or Luciferian path may simply be one more deception. Or maybe not. The SYMBOLS, however, are often the point.
Now – I had learned about the “red/black” occult thing when I was much younger. I had a friend who had the most excellent Blue Oyster Cult double album, way back when, which made me an instant fan of their music.
Our peer group debated whether the members of Blue Oyster Cult were ACTUALLY occultists of some kind, or just making teasing references to occult things.
Some of my friends assured me that these people were just kidding around – that they were very smart and intelligent people, having a good time by making all these satanic references, but no way were they ACTUALLY occultists, which we thought was dumb.
I mean, the name of the album is “On Your Feet Or On Your Knees” – right? The gloved hand holding the song listing on the vinyl? YAGODDABEKIDDIN. Right? It is SO over the top. Just ridiculous.
Well, the occult symbolism is indeed so pervasive, that I figured out EVENTUALLY, one way or the other, it’s not good. My attitude about Satan and the occult NOW is that it’s all one big classic “fuck around and find out” scenario. You gonna dabble, even “not really”? You gonna die.
But back then? Aw, it’s just stupid and funny. These people can’t be REAL occultists. They’re just having a good time.
BUT – setting that all aside, one of my friends was very informed about Satanists, and he assured me that the song “The Red and the Black”, which appears on that double album, was glorifying the satanic colors – which were also the Nazi colors.
Using another BOC song, “ME 262” – about a German WWII airplane, this person convinced me that the members of the band were also, to some extent, what we called “Hitler freaks” – people who were fascinated by Hitler and the Nazis – but not ACTUALLY Nazis. Indeed, back in that day, a lot of Jewish guys laughed at and made fun of Nazis – both the originals and any reincarnations. ME 262 seemed in that vein. Again, THAT was part of why “The Red and The Black” seemed similarly unserious. It wasn’t just an occult joking thing – it was also a Nazi joking thing.
But LISTEN TO THE WORDS OF ME 262 NOW.
He told me that BOC “got off” on sliding nutty lyrics and topics past people – that this somewhat cynical love of fooling people was really what was going on – and NOT that these people were real occultists of any kind.
Even the band’s name, which can be abbreviated as “B. O. Cult”, was just guys with a sense of humor.
Now – you may accept that, or not. You may realize that “fooling people” is a HUGE part of the occult – or you may think one would be overreacting to be suspicious of comedy. But what I’m going to do now is to freak you out just a bit.
You have surely heard “Don’t Fear The Reaper”, and the innocent explanation thereof. We’ve discussed that on this site. As many have noted, there are even Christian interpretations of the song.
Here is an exemplary “normie” reaction to the song.
But where I want to take you next, is the transition from normie to how this song has “naturally” been used in movies and television.
If that album cover with the magician is going to wake you up a bit, now might be a good time.
Watch the transition in the first few minutes of this next video (which you have to watch on YouTube).
First, the song was used in the horror movie Halloween – and its remake.
It was also used in the TV adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Stand” – as the background music peering over dead bodies from a “real” pandemic.
The rest of the analysis shows that this really is an ingenious song – but I truly want to caution people that, just because there is definitely a nice, innocent, and almost (but not quite) pure reading of it – indeed, a very tempting reading of it – there are MANY other readings of it.
And THAT gets to the heart of BOC’s music, IMO. It is indeed poetic, having layers of meanings. And if you’ve read anything about the poets of yore, you know that they themselves often had multiple levels to their own personas, many of those levels FAR from moral.
Now – let’s get back to “The Red and the Black”.
Another version of the song:
Here are the lyrics.
[Verse 1: Eric Bloom] Canadian Mounted, baby Police force at work Red and Black It’s their color scheme Get their man In the end
[Chorus: Eric Bloom] (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) oh yeah, my honey knows it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (All right) oh yeah, baby knows it’s all right (You’d kill, you’d maim) ah, c’mon kill ’em (You’d kill, look out) [Verse 2: Eric Bloom] C’mon my husky Frontenac Chateau, baby I cross the frontier at ten I got a whip in my hand, baby And a girl or a husky At leather’s end
[Chorus: Eric Bloom] (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) oh yeah, baby knows it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (All right) oh yeah, baby, yeah it’s all right (You’d kill, you’d maim) ah, c’mon kill ’em now (You’d kill, you’d maim)
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3: Eric Bloom] Hornswoop me bungo pony on dogsled on ice! Make a dash for freedom, baby Don’t skate on polar ice It’s too thick to be sliced by the light! Of long and white polar nights [Chorus: Eric Bloom] (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) oh yeah, baby knows it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (It’s all right) it’s all right (All right) yeah, knows it’s all right (You’d kill, you’d maim) ah, c’mon and kill now (You’d kill, you’d maim) maim ’em too Ah, break it up
[Instrumental Outro]
Ah – so “The Red and the Black” is just a fun, nutty song about the Canadian Mounties?
Maybe the same mounties that seem to have gone the way of the FBI vis-a-vis those truckers who didn’t want to get injected with a globalist depopulation shot?
TRUDEAU'S MOUNTED STORMTROOPERS TRAMPLE ELDERLY LADY. Trudeau must be stopped. This is not Canada. pic.twitter.com/3YWsIqegkv
What I find interesting is that by making a bit of a “Canada to Germany” switch, the song makes a lot more sense. My friend back in the day swore that the song was a thinly disguised glorification of “S&M”, and that it was indeed about the Nazis.
Who knows?
And if band members said otherwise, would you believe them?
No matter what, I think we should all take note of which B.O. Cult album that song happens to appear on.
Tyranny and Mutation
Kind of an odd coincidence, for sure. But that’s how things roll in the Satanic world, IMO. Signs and warnings. Which is also why “symbolism is their downfall”.
(Hat tips WSB and Sadie)……
Seriously, the back of that album tells you a lot about the band. Worth a close reading.
“Diabolically imagistic lyrics”?
Or as stated by a critic…..
Robert Christgau, writing for The Village Voice, praised the band’s disregard for “the entire heavy ethos”, but wondered if the “parody-surreal refraction of the abysmal ‘poetry’ of heavy” in the lyrics could be a start for a return to conformism.[9]
In cases of religious mass suicide/homicide, such as Jonestown, Heaven’s Gate, and Aum Shinrikyo, it is very difficult to regain a humanitarian understanding of the key participants after the infamy of defining events sears the conscience and redefines reality.
Even more difficult, however, is the opposite – to BEGIN to think the unthinkable and speak the unspeakable, that we all seem to know is true, but which we can only comprehend in principle, not in reality.
It is almost impossible to leave the past where we could trust – and yet, we were warned about this.
Who are we taught to trust the most? This will not be easy. The END. Q
You don’t understand “revolutionary suicide”. But you need to understand it – and soon.
Those who believe in “revolutionary suicide” for most of humanity as a “solution”, are acting on that belief, because “there’s no time”.
This message about “there’s no time” was not meant as much for you, as it was meant for the people with the pitchers of Koolaid, and the people with the guns, stationed around the perimeter of the compound.
Put on your seatbelts. The truth about what is going on is going to blow you away.
Those who first noticed and described the “religion of climate change” likely had no idea that they were literally correct, but they were. It’s a cult.
The Frankfurt Marxist experiment called “Peoples Temple” and its fateful concept of “revolutionary suicide” explains all aspects of the current deadly social experiment, from Green New Deal, to Great Reset, to the semi-failed population control shot, meant to transition us into integrated population control as part of [socialized] medicine.
The climate-conned progressives had a dream. That dream, being built on a stolen election, is already “pre-failing”, but not fast enough.
We are dealing with a cult. As in the case of many cults, they are a group of well-meaning, good-intentioned people, who have a bit too much faith in their human leadership obsessed with human solutions, and not quite enough faith in God.
When the convincing argument met a pesky commandment, exceptions were made.
Now before you tell me I’m wrong, and that they’re all distinguishably and remarkably evil, unlike us, the good guys and better girls, take a minute to cool off and remember why your Bible said why we should not take too much pride in ourselves, my fellow sinner. Kurt Vonnegut turned the clarity of his PTSD-enhanced vision for our hypocrisy into a career. We could all use a bit of that vision.
Oh, there is evil mixed in – swirled into the goodness like poison until it’s tasteless – and that’s exactly why it’s hard to detect.
It’s easy to think of cults as purely evil and therefore incomprehensible, but it’s not a great way to comprehend their danger. It is when you examine their humanity, as we walk among them and smile, and they smile back with an equally human face, that you see WHERE and HOW the danger arises.
I have learned so much about God in following this story. Hopefully some of that EXTREMELY important part will help to freely convince you that you, too, need God – even if that God exists for you in the most abstract way possible – to keep you from falling into mental traps which, paradoxically, come from our human self-reliance and “realism”.
God is a weird idea that almost has to exist by emergent self-creation from our reality, like calculus does. Where does God come from? For that matter, where does math come from? What is the weird mathematics of infinity a subset of?
Simply believing there is more, and that it is not inherently against us, but for us, as demonstrated by our own existence, seems to be key to avoiding error. If you can accept that much of a Cartesian “God”, good. It is enough.
Ground yourself in God before you go on reading this. It is our lifeline back from diabolical error.
Why [Sometimes] Jones Was Right and We Were Wrong
I’m shocking you with that title of this section for a reason.
Jones was not right about everything, obviously. But he was right about enough, that if you can use that to begin to understand his motivations, and his correct thinking on some things, you can see where and how he and his followers were led astray.
This quality of being “right about too much, but misleading in the end” is VERY typical of communism, and Jones was, if you read Peoples Temple thinking, a communist of the Frankfurt School type. His Peoples Temple was a living experiment in resolving all the accused bugaboos of Western society – the “oppressions” – that critical theory challenged.
Jones saw unnecessary, systemic, racial problems and wanted to do something about them. Jones saw marginalization of women and felt it inherently wrong. Jones saw the collectivist aspects of earlier forms of Judaism and Christianity, and felt that they could not be ignored. Ironically, he did not see the power and possibility of the “greatest collective” – all of us living independently and harmoniously in a free and truthful world – but that is what made Jones perfect as a micro-reactor experiment for the creation of a very progressive “woke Christianity”. And that is exactly what he was. Woke Christianity, only 40 or 50 years ago.
Jones saw that American Christianity could be made more “social” – or socialist – and discovered that it actually worked, when judged by metrics of earthly success.
When I began to read some writings by a leftist sympathizer of Peoples Temple, based largely on the viewpoints of insiders and survivors, and she described my own deficient thinking about the People’s Temple correctly, and how I was part of the misunderstanding and minimizing thereof, I gained deep insight into not only the truly leftist nature of the Peoples Temple, which was clearly a fellow traveler of cultural Marxism, but also how seductive both critical theory is, and the Peoples Temple was. Even the analysis itself was seductive, in correctly describing the flaws of my own views of Jonestown. However, the devil is in the details, because sympathy for the people of Jonestown can easily whitewash the truth about bitter flaws in their collective, and collectivist, dream.
In the end, it’s Jesus versus Stalin. Stalin, sadly, beat Jesus in the world of Jim Jones.
Stalin will mislead you into demanding or committing harm of others for the good of the whole, whereas Jesus will lead you as an individual into sacrifice of self for the good of others.
It’s a subtle difference, but it makes all the difference in the bigger outcome.
To gain the same insights I got, you can beneficially read the same writings I did. Start here.
Not the least reason to read this, is that it reviews the FACTS of the history and the shocking, sad end of the Jonestown experiment.
Even more importantly, this reading exposes and explains strong parallels to the Climate Cult. It does so by exposing the thinking of Peoples Temple members from the inside. This thinking very obviously maps to the thinking of the Climate Cult.
Formation of the collective – mass formation psychosis – creates a world layered on this one, beautiful and addictive as hell, and soon to be enhanced by the “metaverse”. But threaten that world, or merely create the perception of threat, and the mass can be manipulated into remarkable behaviors.
Ah, the FURY that Malone’s utterance of “mass formation psychosis” provoked in the media.
To provide some contrast with the Jonestown collective’s broken view of itself, I am providing a short “outsider bibliography” on the Jonestown cult, which is differently broken, as you can see from the demonstrated preconceptions, psychological defenses, and capitalist myopias that the insider narrative points out. But be careful. Sympathy for the Jonestown victims, and understanding of them as good people much like us, can lead to sympathy for the devils that seduced them. Just because our devils hounded them, doesn’t mean that their devils didn’t destroy them.
Same goes for the Climate Cult.
If you ever had any sympathy for the Branch Davidians, you will get what I’m saying. It is much easier to see the evil in Cankles and her crew of nogoodniks in the Climate [Control] Cult, by having at least some sympathy for one of their victims – the flawed Christian cult of David Koresh. (Yeah, that gets complicated.)
Anyway, some comparisons. Here – let’s trivialize the victims!
This next one is a rough gem – very anti-Jones, but exposes the dynamic of the suicidal closest layer of followers, who are willing to be homicidal to the greater outer layer – and THAT is exactly what applies to the Climate Cult.
Now – I told you that you didn’t understand “revolutionary suicide” – so let’s fix that.
Revolutionary Suicide
What is revolutionary suicide? It is – at its core – simply taking the ultimate exit from an unjust society, instead of fighting against it. Here is Jim Jones in his own words:
We committed an act of revolutionary suicide protesting the conditions of an inhumane world.
Looking beneath that statement, trying to understand what constitutes “the conditions of an inhumane world”, I believe that what we find is the failure of the Peoples Temple cult to navigate reality. Jim Jones tried everything he could, to make his utopian vision take hold in reality, but his vision ran into more and more conflicts with the real world outside his cult, until the legal and judicial systems had Jones in a state of constant challenge. Even fleeing America itself did not work. In Guyana, the conflicts grew, until legal actions against Jim Jones were imminent. Jones correctly realized that he had nowhere left to go, and thus could not maintain his vision of the Peoples Temple. Jones could not even flee to the Soviet Union – one of the options that was always on the group’s table of discussion. Jones knew that he was politically radioactive, and no longer useful to the Soviets.
“Revolutionary suicide” is the ultimate “take your bag of marbles and go home” move – but remember – THAT is also a perfect description of individual suicide.
As a number of individuals in the Jonestown cult felt the world crashing down upon them, with the increasing problems of the cult, some felt suicide was the answer. Jones was sorely tempted by this route.
I have to ask – was the Climate Cult moved ahead in its schedule by external forces? Ask the question, because it seems to me that the answer is yes. The very defects in their plan that allowed us to see it all, may have been the result of schedule changes forced by the Trump election.
Whether individuals or groups are hounded by their own perception of external criticism, or by actual hounding, it doesn’t matter – suicide can be the result. See January Sixth, as well.
The greatest moral problem with all group suicides, including “revolutionary suicide”, is that these deaths are not free of hounding or worse, this time internal, and themselves approach or even constitute murder. Hounding, tricking, and otherwise coercing the GROUP to fully participate is the reality of the act.
Innocent people who want to LIVE are forced to DIE.
Thus, there is a HUGE footprint of MURDER in “revolutionary suicide”. This is clear in the records of the Jonestown incident. A layer of “diehards” and “inner circle” were used to enforce the group decision, leaving only a few who managed to escape by using their wits.
Shades of the jab.
Most people do not want to commit suicide. Most religions teach against it. But not all, and I believe that the truest believers at the center of the Climate Cult are quite ready to kill and be killed for their goals.
If a CIA operative suggested “revolutionary suicide” to the Jonestown cult, it would not surprise me. Their collectivist nature was highly vulnerable to this form of exploitation. Indeed, the same may apply to other cult suicides.
Either way, whether spontaneous or provoked, the possibility of group error, including group entry into a suicidal choice, is a viral vulnerability of social beings.
So now, let’s apply this fully to the Climate Cult.
Revolutionary Climate Justice
It is my contention that the Climate Cultists who are knowingly behind the Population Control Shot are mostly recruited true believers, much like those closest to Jim Jones. This would be the most obedient layer. Beyond them, however, are many who believe most of the climate cult canon, but could not be counted on to obey morally contradictory orders such as murder or suicide.
So who took the shots? Did they all play “climate roulette”?
Doubly Vaxxed and Boosted
AND logic is your friend here. Some of the “knowing” likely virtue signaled to the climate goal by taking the statistically lethal depopulation shot – others less courageous and more cowardly rationalized their “need to survive for the sake of climate justice” and did not. Bill Clinton is a great example of the latter type of thinking – his view of actual obedience to feminism in men was that “exceptions need to be made for the leaders”.
Hypocrisy. It seems to be “baked in” in communism.
Either way, shot or no shot, the true-believing “there’s no time” climate cultists are, I am certain, committed to the group goal of “saving the world from climate destruction by acting now”.
You can see this in every OTHER hare-brained scheme they are rushing forward now. The “clot shot” was merely one avenue of “saving humanity”. The others are happening right now, as food and energy systems are being destroyed, both economically and physically.
Shades of Pol Pot. Who even the Vietnamese communists knew was wrong.
Yes. It’s all backwards. It’s all deluded. It’s all destructive.
They had to show us. And we are being shown.
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) were joined by Democratic lawmakers from both the House and Senate on February 7, 2019, to introduce Green New Deal legislation.
Does this all seem a bit overwhelming? Having doubts? Is it just too much?
Here are two “public” explanations I have given for “higher credibility”. First on Steve Kirsch’s blog, then on Sundance’s post on The Burning Platform. These are the same explanation, only a bit softer and easier to digest.
Great article and statement of principled science.
People refuse to speak up about the nuttiness of it all, even though most know something is wrong, and many suspect that there is an intentional component.
I’ll spell it out. Somebody has to go first. I’m retired. I can’t lose a license or chair, or my pension (yet).
To me this was a fairly smart attempt to integrate top-decided and down-to-the-individual-tunable (see “bad batch phenomenon”) population control into medicine, and in fact a rather ingenious strategy, too. A vaccine – hero of a media-led crisis – unquestionable by the masses or the media – with a known dose-response mortality curve (see again “bad batch phenomenon”) that can in principle be dialed up to achieve ZPG, as long as denial of adverse events is enforced by holding all questions outside the Overton window. The dual nature (decrease BOTH longevity and fertility/productivity) is quite smart. It’s a bit “cinematic” and even “sci-fi”, but it worked pretty well due to human psychology.
The phony climate crisis (“there’s no time!”) was surely used to recruit many of the needed life scientists to carry it out or protect the plan. THAT was ingenious. Use an alleged crisis in one part of science to find unquestioning believers as recruits in a different part of science, who could “do something” about it.
Something very interesting here, is that this theory – which I find neatly explains all the “mistakes” people in charge have made – is crystal clear once you have “sympathy” for solving the population problem. Our leaders have encouraged desperation over the “climate crisis” in the susceptible population, and scoffing in the remainder – a very useful division for concealing the plan. The desperation messaging thus bounces off the very people who would have any inclination to look critically for such a plan or planners. Those people don’t understand the desperation of a scientist driven to “save humanity”, and thus would never bother to REALLY look for such a plan. It just seems too fantastic. One has to open up to the possibility that they might, in principle, be right, just to make the idea conceivable. But just try it. What if people REALLY BELIEVED we were going to all die in ten years, or some other typical “climate scare story”? Would you “join a global team out to save the planet”? Almost sounds like something people have been trained to do by our “entertrainment”.
So have sympathy for the devil – I mean the plan – or at least its motivation – the idea that people who really think we all will die if some are not sacrificed now – why then it all makes sense.
Now, as Steve points out, the numbers aren’t there yet on the shot, although I suspect that the long numbers on cardiac and immune deaths are more than we know yet. And beyond that, perhaps this is a bit like Hiroshima and Nagasaki – a THREAT to force us to get population under control by other means. I suspect they have a strong “Plan B” for us catching them. What is it?
I don’t like being brought to a negotiation at gunpoint, and having grabbed their gun, I’m a bit pissed. But nevertheless, here we are and it is now (and I know that what I’m selling smells like moonshine, but bear with me). Are they going to try something else, or are we going to talk about this reasonably? Judging from CDC falling back to the real science now, methinks the inevitable cover-up is going on. While I myself hang around with a crowd that screams “tribunals”, and look across the aisle at Democrats who would be the first to cry “amnesty for the climate do-gooders” (I suspect the plan counted on this), I think it does behoove us to make this stuff not able to happen again, as the most important solution. Whatever phony “lessons” come out of CDC, just ain’t gonna cut it. Human science and medicine have been damaged incredibly, but I think not irreparably, as I have faith in the truth winning in the end.
I know it all sounds fantastic, but go back over the “errors” people have made, driving toward “fair” universal deployment of the shot, and imagine that they were “trying to help”. Things start to make sense. But yes – it would be a bit cult-like, and it helps VERY much to read about the very lefty People’s Temple and “revolutionary suicide”, which is almost a model for this.
I will say this. These are NOT unforeseen consequences. They are “necessary consequences” in the eyes of the true-believing “climate cult”. A literal cult which was very intentionally created. Created to do exactly what it’s doing. And I have some new thinking on it that is difficult to speak just yet, but essential to understand.
I am now absolutely convinced that the “dumb vaccine” was a very intentional plan by these same people to achieve the same goal.
When people assert that the CIA was behind Jim Jones and Jonestown, or studied Jonestown – oh – they don’t know the half of it.
If you know anything about the Frankfurt school, their fingerprints are all over this lab experiment.
They were WAY ahead of us.
In the last couple of days, I have come to understand the relationship of Jones as a model for the Climate Cult. Even the race obsession and CRT figures into prepping this psychological attack on humanity. The weird racial and sexual psychology of that cult was a key feature, also present now.
There is a joke meme about Jonestown and Fauci, but ironically, the very communist followers of Jim Jones who survived have an excellent, critical theory-based, Frankfurt-school critique of how we, the capitalist dupes, joke about their “revolutionary suicide”, as they called it, and don’t take anything they did seriously.
They can describe us accurately. We need to describe THEM accurately. This is no longer a joke.
That mentality has been WEAPONIZED against not just America, but THE WORLD.
I’ll have more about this later today, in my “population control shot” series.
The point is, it all ties together. “They” – whoever “they” are at the top – have used a CULT they have created – to “downsize” and “disempower” humanity against its will, in defiance of all common sense.
It’s VERY culty behavior – the irrationality and schizoid behavior of the key participants (Pete Buttigieg and his SUV-to-show-bike stuff) is a feature, not a bug.
Hopefully those explanations have helped you formulate your own opinions – whether you now think I’m onto something, whether you just can’t buy any of this stuff, or something in between.
Either way – where do we go from here?
Reject Climate Insanity Completely
The world is being destroyed by foolish choices, based on insane “solutions” to BAD SCIENCE which was LOCKED IN BY MONEY.
But don’t worry – we have time.
Trump is right – we can “build back a third time” after their latest destruction, even if many lives are lost or worsened in the process.
It’s tough, but accepting bad elections has consequences. Both GOPe and RINOs need to suffer for their sins. Smart solutions will now take time, where rush jobs (like AGW) lead to HACK SOLUTIONS like Windows Me or the spike protein, take your pick.
I’m not in a rush – I think we can wait until we’re at the brink, so that everybody agrees – this is all nuts.
BUUUUUT – I do have a solution, of how to get to that brink of “all the sane people agree” much faster.
In many ways, I am going to back up Sundance’s approach.
Stated differently, SCREW THE VIRTUE SIGNALS. We can’t afford to politely agree with the CRAP any more. Let people KNOW that it’s crap, that you don’t agree with it, and that you will not vote for anybody who even puts up with the crap when THEY are faced with it.
The CRAP is destroying the world, and WE don’t go along with it.
I repeat. You need to stop virtue signaling to the mainstream narratives, and most importantly THE CLIMATE NARRATIVE, in any form.
It you want to know the ONE REASON why Trump was not “allowed” to be President, I can tell you with near certainty – it is because he REJECTS the “climate games” in their entirety.
Trump LOVES the environment, but he REJECTS the weird corporate “bad science” that was layered into it, with the absurd CO2-based climate change story. And so do I. I reject their bad science and even more their toxic workarounds that stem from the bad science.
[Note: I have watched “climate science” from the beginning, and I have NEVER seen science that convinced me of anthropogenic global warming climate change being real – much less a threat to humanity, even if it was real. Indeed, I see an incipient ice age as the far greater threat – and one that is EASILY dealt with by following the path we were on before SOMEBODY decided to downgrade humanity rather than upgrading our technology. ]
No. Just NO. We don’t put up with climate insanity (please call it that), nor do we put up with those who TOLERATE IT. Not just those who advocate it. Those who TOLERATE IT.
And THAT gets to the SECOND point.
This point bears on Sundance’s shrewd recognition of the “DeSantis problem”.
We need to goad all GOP candidates into the “WEF unacceptable zone”.
Why is DeSantis acceptable to the establishment Republicans? Is it because he will tolerate climate nuttiness? The ONE necessity for a nod from Davos?
Personally, I like DeSantis, but I see clearly that the other side is using him to derail Trump. They have a smart strategy there. Evil, but smart.
Well, one way to thwart that is for DeSantis to join Trump in denouncing the climate insanity in no uncertain terms. In terms that are so strong, they make him utterly unacceptable to WEF and the quislings in GOPe.
“It’s wrong. It’s a hoax. It’s destroying the planet. It has to stop.”
And then, to spread it, a little criticism of even the slightest climate belief as a RINO position should put the fear of God in Washington.
Oh, DeSantis’s RINO advisors will go through the ROOF, but tough times call for tough measures. Klaus Schwab, Larry Fink and the Rothschild entourage need to burn in anger at the rejection. And while we’re on Fink, ESG needs to DIE. Kill it, before it kills humanity.
Climate insanity is crap, and it needs to end. NOW.
This means that a lot of GOP need to feel the STING – the BURN – of rejection.
When they so much as NOD to the bullshit, they PAY WITH THE BASE.
Are we clear? GOOD.
BURN THEIR GOD, CLIMATE CHANGE, AT THE STAKE.
Final Thoughts
We have to grab the steering wheel. It’s that simple. We’re not going to kill anybody. We’re not going to have an “insurrection”. We’re going to demand that these assholes who have fucked everything up, stand down with their insanity and their corruption.
EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. DAY. You are going to have to make these people feel like CRAP for supporting INSANITY and causing HAVOC.
Get tough. It’s the only way forward. But you can do it.
Why the Communist Chinese Behavior of DOJ and FBI Makes Proof of Life Necessary to Prevent Secret Indictment and Arrest of Trump and Associates
We are entering a dangerous phase, patriots. The DOJ and FBI are becoming desperate liars. Each day, they act MORE and MORE COWARDLY, like their Chinese and North Korean counterparts, who “disappear” people in the interest of “national security” without the slightest apology.
Think it can’t happen here? Think they might not “secretly” arrest Trump, to “prevent violence”?
Let’s walk through this.
Here is one side of that equation. (H/T phoenix)
TUCKER: You can feel it. Trump can feel it. He asked for calm. This could get very bad, very fast for our country pic.twitter.com/Frgfk7mzQG
As you will see from the conversation link above, not everybody was ready to believe that Trump even SAID this. I’m a bit ambivalent about it myself, and have theorized both ways.
I tend to believe he DID say it, but I see an extreme need to be skeptical going forward.
Scott467 did some meticulous digging, and cannot find actual proof that Trump said it, such as a video. And given that Red State was once an anti-Trump oasis, and Fox News literally ASSISTED in the electoral coup against Trump, why should we believe them? I agree. It’s time to be skeptical.
And NOW THIS.
Melania steps out and goes to Trump Tower. As discussed HERE. (H/T Bfly)
We got into bit of discussion about the mask. Take a look.
I mean, take a look.
I mean, really take a look.
Now you all know that I’m a massive skeptic of “doubles” allegations, because in most cases, they’re just disinformation. That disinformation is not only used to make our side look silly – it also protects the REAL cases of stunt doubles, by a kind of “seeded disbelief”.
The fact remains, doubles ARE a real trick, used by all sides. Retired military and DEA operator Jeffrey Prather, who spotted the current use of operators against the American people in recent years, including January Sixth, even talked about the use of doubles in America, on Americans, as the recent “PIT” meeting.
VIDEO: (You’ll have to listen to the whole wonderful thing – I don’t remember where he talked about the doubles.)
Prather mentions MASKS as being part of the “doubles” scam. He also talks about “doubles” being used as part of discreditation, blackmail, and false evidence. Hopefully somebody can get the exact transcription.
I still remember the time that Kamala Harris, that dopey Indian-Jamaican valley girl who can screw up anything, had a political stunt double “screw up” a simple glad-handing job in Palm Beach, thanks to the brilliant provocateur Laura Loomer, who knew that “Real Kamala” was somewhere else as that very moment, and sent the double running for her vehicle.
FAKE KAMALA GOT LOOMERED! – Laura Loomer Catches Kamala Harris BODY DOUBLE at Palm Beach Polling Place! (VIDEO -PHOTOS)
SO – doubles ARE a real thing, but they can be desperately hard to catch.
You have to admit – this lady looks a LOT like Kamala Harris.
Take a look at Melania again. Are you POSITIVE it’s Melania?
Even if it IS Melania, we are going to have to think hard about KAPO’S next move.
We KNOW that this LAWFARE REGIME will literally SANCTION its own illegal and unconstitutional acts against us. Just like every dirty trick they used against Trump – all of which I believe were “globally sanctioned” by horrifying and ANATHEMA secret treaties.
Remember – it’s how they SLEEP AT NIGHT. They tell themselves that everything they do is “legal”.
SO – let’s consider this scenario.
Let’s assume that KAPO – Merrick Garland – acting under the orders of Stalinist ASSHOLE Barack Obama, via the grubby lips of professional LIAR Susan Rice, needs to INDICT or even ARREST Donald Trump.
This may even be a SECRET indictment, under SECRET LAW.
Our pathetic and evil government has clearly been caught with their pants down, SECRETLY but “not so secretly” injecting children with poison to fight “climate change” – or so they tell themselves.
Why would they not secretly arrest Trump?
Would it not be better “for national security” to order some kind of hoax-protected secret arrest “in the interest of public safety”?
Would it not be better FOR THEM to seed disinformation that “all is well”?
Maybe even on social media?
Think about how COWARDLY these asshole DODGE and FIB communists actually are.
SPIT
These people are NOTHING like the old FBI and DOJ.
How do we know this? Because they’re not the same people carrying the guns.
I don’t know about you all, but I don’t trust this government. AT ALL.
Prepare for them to take down our rightful and true President in the most underhanded ways possible. Nothing is beneath them.
Remember what they did to us on January Sixth – how they STOLE our peaceful protest right out from under us.
Because they don’t want us to protest. They want us to give up. They want to “normalize” the removal of Trump.
After all, when is the last time the “Joint Terrorism Task Force” actually arrested a real live foreign terrorist, and not a “racist” American livestreamer, a politically convenient “red flag law” patsy, or a box of documents from a former President?
It’s kinda funny, but when I saw the biography of the Palm Beach sheriff who helped the EVIL FIB raid President Trump, I could not help but notice the letters “JTTF“.
You see, I knew what that meant. “Joint Terrorism Task Force“.
But the difference was, THIS TIME, I knew EXACTLY who those “terrorists” are, that “JTTF” was designed to go after.
That’s right, American brothers and sisters.
It’s YOU and ME who are the “terrorists” JTTF was created for.
And maybe Presidents that YOU and ME might vote for.
It took me a while to figure out why the “JTTF” just keeps growing and growing – and expanding and expanding – when actual, real terrorism just keeps declining here in America.
WE are the “terrorists” they’re going to go after.
WE are the “domestic violent extremists” they will pursue.
WE are the dangerous people who require a special group of state and local law enforcement agencies who are forced to follow the FBI’s “training” and “lead”.
Yeah, baby, you see where this is going now, don’t you?
But let me explain just a bit more.
I got clued into this “JTTF” back when a harmless but crazy guy who I christened “Red Flag Poster Boy” happened on the scene in Portland Oregon.
Intro: Comey’s Giant Plot I’m surprised it took me THIS LONG to see how Comey’s multi-layered scam worked, but hey – James Comey is one slick bastard, as you can tell from his long and complex play against President Trump. Why, Comey’s REALLY BIG PLOT is still unfolding right now. His CRAP is of an …
If you bother to read that rather long article, you’ll see that I know a thing or two about how patsies, informants, and other politically useful victims are “groomed” by the FBI.
You can skip over this article unless you’re dying to know everything about this patsy, “Red Flag Poster Boy”, and my opinions about how he was created.
The main point being that this dubious if not hilarious “politically perfect” guy showed up outside the MAYOR of Portland’s house, making the perfect case for “red flag laws” in Oregon – and maybe even nationally, thanks to the convenient national media coverage. AND this whole episode was handled by – YOU GUESSED IT – the “JTTF” in Oregon – which didn’t want to give too many details to the press – at least, beyond the original “propaganda payload”. It was all very “McCabe”, so to speak.
The FBI declined to provide additional details about the case or answer questions submitted by The Oregonian/OregonLive.
“The Portland JTTF’s role is to assess, address, and mitigate any given threat against the people of Oregon appropriately,” Beth Anne Steele, a spokeswoman for the bureau’s Portland office said in an email Friday.
“Sometimes that mitigation takes the form of criminal prosecution, and sometimes it involves a holistic response, including consultation with threat assessment teams or others to divert a person before a significant violent crime occurs.”
So JTTF is looking pretty sketchy at that point, but it gets worse.
If you think that the FBI had a bad look here, “taking a knee” with BLM….
…..wait until you see what’s next.
If you combine those folks right there with their “JTTF” local gophers, and send them all on a mission to take down a “racist livestreamer on Telegram”, you get THIS, as featured on “Yahoo / ATT Something”:
Feds Arrest White Supremacist Livestreamer in Dawn Raid, Rattling Supporters
Will Sommer
March 2, 2021·2 min read
The FBI arrested a notorious white supremacist livestreamer in an early morning raid in Florida on Tuesday.
FBI agents, working with Fort Lauderdale police and the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, arrested Paul N. Miller, 32, on one charge of being a “convicted felon in possession of a firearm.” The FBI said in a press release that Miller was arrested without incident.
Miller’s neighbors in Fort Lauderdale’s Riverside neighborhood reported hearing flashbangs during the raid, which took place around 5 a.m. ET, local TV station NBC 6 reported. One neighbor described seeing law enforcement officers carrying out a box that appeared to have “a shotgun on the front or an AK.”
Miller, who goes by the name “Gypsy Crusader” online, has amassed more than 40,000 followers on Telegram, a messaging app and social media network popular with far-right extremists. Many of Miller’s videos feature him dressing up as characters like the Joker or Nintendo’s Mario, then hurling racial abuse at strangers, including children, through the randomized chat app Omegle. Miller can be seen holding a gun in some of his videos.
A grand jury indicted Miller on the firearms charge on Feb. 25, according to court records unsealed Tuesday. Miller is charged with illegally possessing a gun on Jan. 17, 2018. The indictment doesn’t describe the 2018 incident in which Miller allegedly had the firearm.
Miller’s Tuesday arrest sent shockwaves through internet extremist circles. Miller had recently sold patches promoting his channel to his supporters, with his arrest raising fears among other extremists that the FBI could access his customer files and find out their own names and addresses.
In messages captured by extremism researcher Hilary Sargent, Miller’s supporters worried about the possibility that they could soon become FBI targets themselves.
If convicted, Miller faces up to 10 years in prison on the gun charge.
Just read this crap. I mean, REALLY?
We have a guy who doesn’t actually appear to be a violent criminal, but who used a gun as a prop in videos, and who uses “racist” language, being arrested by the “JTTF” for using the gun as a prop when not being able to own guns – at least, that’s what it looks like to me.
Racist language? Owning a gun when “not allowed”? And you called out the freaking “Joint Terrorism Task Force”? Because you could label him a “white supremacist”?
He’s a fucking “YouTuber” who’s not even on YouTube! He’s a PUTZ. He’s a NEBBISH.
Crap. From the looks of it, he’s not even “white” – or could claim more “POC” clout than most “spokespocs” out there. The dude is the Shaun King of AOCs if he wants it.
This is BULLSHIT and you all KNOW IT.
This guy was arrested because he makes fun of REGIME VALUES and has a following online.
Some fat angry libtard purple-haired trans lesbian doxxer presumably phoned it in that the guy had a gun but had something on his record – AMIRIGHT?
And the FBI is now being PUSHED to make everything about “domestic violent extremism” – AMIRIGHT?
And “white supremacist” – which he likely isn’t even THAT in reality – is close enough for media hand grenades – AMIRIGHT?
Because that is how you have to build up your army to go after conservatives when January Sixth didn’t give you all the amount of PRETEXT you needed – AMIRIGHT?
Look, friends. Nothing good is going to come from continuing this JTTF charade.
JTTF is a way for bizarre, messed-up, leftist FBI values to undermine sane state, county, and local law enforcement.
SHUT THIS SHIT DOWN. GET OUT OF IT. TELL THE FEDS TO GO HOME TO WASHINGTON.
You know it’s the right thing to do. And if you don’t, it will only bring trouble.
Mark my words.
W
THIS IS NOT REALITY, OTHER THAN THE VERY VISIBLE POLITICS. THIS IS HOLLYWOOD EMOTIONAL SALES.
When you get time and if you are interested in the subject of the Uniparty and The Club, I hope you will consider reading this HOH four part series. Please forgive my writing style and focus on the content and implications because stories like this one give us big clues.
That said, let’s finish this and move on. Time to Monday morning quarterback this puppy and put it to bed (H/T to Catturd). I want to start by asking an off-the-wall question of our resident numerologists, symbolism experts, and those skilled in family planning and development.
Why would all of the major members of the subject Haslam family each have THREE children?
Big Jim and Cynthia – Three: Jimmy, Ann, Bill
Natalie – Three Children from first marriage
Jimmy and Dee – Three: James (Jimmy adopted Dee’s son), Whitney and Cynthia
Ann and Steve – Three Children from Steve’s first marriage
Bill and Crissy – Three: Annie, Leigh, Will
Coincidence? Seems strange. What if one or more had gone off the rails and only had one or two? Would it have brought the whole family circus down or something?
Cynthia’s Death
This one is a whole lot more serious. Why no autopsy of Cynthia with a sudden, unexpected death at age 42 in the middle of the day? Big Jim and her family knew her father reportedly died of a heart condition in his 30s. Not having an autopsy started rumors, possibly unfounded. Why would Big Jim not want to know for sure about the cause of death of his wife and mother of his children since a similar condition may affect one or more of his children or anticipated grandchildren in the future? The rumors grew over time when two years after her death Big Jim married his long time friend, fellow UT classmate and former Miss Tennessee, Natalie. She had divorced her first husband a year after Cynthia’s death. The rumors quieted down two decades later when his daughter, Ann, was diagnosed and had surgery for an aorta dissection in a similar age bracket as her mother. Did Cynthia ever exhibit symptoms? Would Big Jim know if he was on the road as much as has been reported? Would he have insisted on her going to a cardiologist if symptoms occurred in front of him?
What if Cynthia had lived a normal, longer life? So much to question and unpack.
Ann was strongly impacted at age 18 by discovering her mother dead in the couple’s bed. She never really got her act together after that. She went to UT but did not finish. Did not marry Steve until she was well into her thirties. Family life had become more complicated with her trying to take over for her mom and Big Jim marrying Natalie with her three children to add to the family dynamics so soon. She discovered her personal aorta problem after marriage to Steve. Was it causing her problems all along?
More importantly, how would the children have turned out if Cynthia had lived? A reportedly grounded, kind, giving soul who took care of family and friends. In the public eye, but no socialite beauty like Natalie. Would Big Jim have been as aggressive in business nationwide with all of the galas, events and dinners? Would Jimmy have been more careful and considerate with his mom in his ear? Would Bill have gone to seminary and become a pastor as he planned, or, would he have even been involved with people who kindled the desire? Would Bill have ever started going to Young Life, which made such an impact on his life. Would the family have joined The Club, or, just been a regionally successful, pay it forward family in the local Club?
Natalie’s Divorce/Remarriage to Big Jim
Wow, that was quick. Apparently, Natalie’s first marriage had been on the rocks for several years. But it completely cratered quickly when Big Jim became available. Natalie was already a big thing in local high society and could handle herself well with powerful people.
What if Natalie had remained in her first marriage? How would things have gone for the children of both Big Jim and Natalie? What would have happened to Pilot? Natalie proved herself highly valuable in both the local and big Clubs.
Big Jim’s Early Career Choice and Financial Missteps
What if Big Jim had gone into the other career he considered upon his return from military service – marketing and advertising for radio and this new fangled thing being developed and sold called a television, which he thought was just a fad (his comments)? Would he have been as successful? What impact would it have on his family and their futures? What if Big Jim had adopted a slower, more measured expansion rate in the early years? What if Marathon, his supplier, had not agreed or been capable of stepping up and buying an interest in Pilot while also providing more money for expansion when he over expanded and the company finances tanked? Banks were reeling from the Ford/Carter years with sky rocketing interest rates. Money was tight for small businesses in particular.
To Big Jim and Marathon’s credit, they were loyal to each other from that first deal on. That’s the way it should work. There were periods when they did less business together based on individual circumstances, but each always stepped up for the other as the situation and opportunity presented itself.
Religion
Big Jim’s faith is old school. It’s there, just not discussed much in the media. But people know he is a believer and a benefactor. In the local Club, historic St. John’s Episcopal Cathedral is high on the list and apparently that may have been where they went based on a few media reports. We do know Big Jim did not ever drink alcohol or smoke per Jimmy.
But he deemed it OK to sell both to customers in the business. He just chose not to partake.
Jimmy does what Jimmy does. Who knows.
Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church has been the choice of Bill since his youth after his mom died. It has always been highly evangelical in approach, outreach and worship services. Bill became very active in Young Life as a teenager, an international Christ based organization. It had a profound effect on his faith journey. You can look it up to learn more. It has been effective over the decades in its outreach to all young people to bring the message of Christ in a more fun and relaxed environment. Bill is on the Board even today.
What if the rest of the family had gone the route of Bill? What if Bill had gone the route of the rest of his family?
Philanthropy
What would the University of Tennessee, its facilities, its athletic programs, and the many charities and community organizations who benefited greatly from the philanthropy of this family look like today if Big Jim and Pilot never happened to the scale it did?
Pilot Business Expansion
What if the bank President I worked for had not taken Pilot and Big Jim on as a customer such that he trusted them enough to make an out of policy financing package? It was a career limiting move if it had failed. What would Pilot have done from that point on? Between the efforts of Pilot and its primary competitor, TA, the travel and trucking industries were changed forever in North America. What if Marathon had not continued as a supplier with their buyout by Big Jim in 1988? What if Marathon had not reentered the picture in ownership later to push the expansion of travel centers such that the Flying J merger occurred? Would Buffett have ever been interested enough to make the move after Jimmy’s mess, which probably still would have happened with Jimmy being who Jimmy is and doing what Jimmy does.
Ross, Dee, and Jimmy
What if Ross had never left Knoxville to go to NY to learn the globalist television production business? What if Big Jim and Ross had never met and became friends and birds of a feather? What if Jimmy never went to see Ross about going into state politics that day? Would Dee and Jimmy have ever hooked up on their own, even with both families presenting opportunities to make it happen? What if Dee remained married to her first husband or had married somebody else first who was more compatible?
Informant/Whistleblower
The confidential informant for the FIB investigation is a guy named John Verble, although he had to sue to try to be recognized as a whistleblower, presumably to make some money since he was fired from Morgan Stanley afterwards for reported non-Pilot related violations of company policies. Verble had recorded conversations with former Pilot sales exec Greco who had left the company who knew about the rebate fraud. Greco was supposedly angry at having been passed up for a promotion and became concerned about it all.
It also appears MS did not want Verble revealing other incriminating stuff about them and other clients per Verble. Which he may have known before making the decision to go to FIB first about Pilot. Was he a bastion of integrity who just wanted to preserve truth, justice and the American Way with no other motives?
It was not long after Greco/Verble did their thing that another Pilot employee came forward about the fraud. The following articles give some good info:
But, what if John Verble had remained in his previously chosen profession of 20+ years before becoming an investment advisor for MS? Why did he leave being a therapist and licensed marriage counselor with a doctorate in psychology from UT? He made a mid-life change to the investment career in his mid-late 40’s. Why? Again, why did he not go to HR at MS when he first learned of the fraud from Greco, why immediately contact FIB and agree to record future conversations? The situation seems really weird to have happened organically, does it not? One might even think Mr. Verble was created or otherwise turned into what he became for purposes we later see. Why would he (or anybody) risk a $350 K per year job at MS that he needed education, training and licensing to receive, to just chunk it all and turn FIB informant with no guarantees of anything other than being embroiled in a legal mess for years? Those type jobs with that much personal income do not grow on trees in the Knoxville, TN area. Did FIB have stuff on him concerning other MS clients that they used to compel him into the role to avoid personal prosecution, which he has managed to do despite MS’s allegations of improprieties?
What is that smell in here?
What if Jimmy and his gang of crooks had never been discovered? Greco states it had been going on since 2003. Why did the charges only relate to 2008-2013? Who are the feds protecting by limiting the dates of the scheme? Who was the Pilot outside accounting firm and why did they not suspect cooking of the books during their exams, or did they and looked the other way? Did they suffer consequences for “missing” this?
Better yet, what if the USPS decided to honestly investigate Verble’s charges of defrauding them with the rebate scheme? Why didn’t they?
As PDT might say, it’s nasty business, folks.
Berkshire
Again, how long had the Berkshire purchase of Pilot Flying J’s stock been in the works? Warren Buffett was a keynote speaker at UT’s College of Business as far back as 2003 that Pilot sponsored among others. Berkshire had purchased Knoxville based Clayton Homes along with their mortgage companies that same year. They are now the nation’s largest manufactured home company. If not before that point, Buffet would have spent time with founder Jim Clayton’s friend, Big Jim Haslam and family during the visit and beyond.
Would Berkshire’s planned purchase of Pilot ownership have influenced the USPS decision? Remember, Obama and Buffett are very close. Would FIB have been sent in to rattle Pilot’s cage to lower the future deal value for Barry’s super rich benefactor friend? Buffett and Berkshire study industry leaders for years and perhaps decades before pulling the trigger to do a deal. The Pilot purchase is a big dollar deal even for Berkshire. They will be reportedly borrowing $11 billion for the second PFJ stock purchase next year. Jimmy is already out as CEO and will be out as Chairman. With an 80% ownership position, Berkshire will have a restricted subsidiary in their holding company (control) with the Haslam family still being able to enjoy the 20% ownership position’s financial upside in the future. Deals like this don’t happen quickly. There is a lot of estate and tax planning that occurs beyond the business aspect. How much, if any, did Jimmy’s antics cost the family and other investors during the period in terms of monetary valuation?
Employee Attitudes/Morale
In one published survey with individual active employee responses I read recently, Pilot ranked at 3 out of 5 stars. Average. The interesting part was the vast majority in the survey ranked them 1 (poor) or 4 (good). Mundane work without much career upside in a stressful environment with long hours were the gist of the complaints. One of the top positives was that it was a good place to learn for the next job in their employment careers. Pay and benefits reflected the average rating, not great but OK.
Which is basically what I observed back in my day. I saw many people there under the age of 40 with very few happy faces. They were polite and professional, but seemed tightly wound and intimidated by management. I’m sure they would be called energetic and enthusiastic by Jimmy. Job turnover was high in many lower rung positions because of the lack of upward mobility.
So, what if the environment was more relaxed with stronger positional upside that would encourage people to make Pilot their career employment and increase productivity via good incentive programs that ensured integrity? Would they see employees willing to risk their futures and that of the company by doing stupid things like committing rebate fraud against their lifelines – the customers? Would the job hopping be less, meaning quality people stayed for longer periods adding to better productivity. What would that mean to customer satisfaction and the potential for fraud and corruption from within?
What if Big Jim Never Went to UT
Woah. Something like that could probably be asked of all of us. Pass. It hurts the brain.
Conclusion
I have provided a snapshot of American capitalism at work that led a family that I briefly had involvement with on their journey to the inner circle of Club membership. The patriarch is getting closer to meeting his maker after being a pioneer of sorts in his industry He parlayed his business prowess into political service for the RINO faction of the GOP. The eldest son achieved his dream of playing with the big boy owners of the NFL, stepping on whoever he needed to along the way and since. He is widely regarded by most sources as the first or second worst owner in the league with Dan Snyder of the Washington Football Team. The daughter is just happy to be there, she just loves being a Haslam (her words). Then there is the youngest son, conflicted for most of his life with his occupation, who spent his political capital as a NeverTrumper in a Trump MAGA state, creating a situation of having peaked at a relatively young age for politicians. He waits for a Bush type RINO Revival Train that may never come in his lifetime, despite the prep work the GOP provided to have him work his way into the oval office when it was his turn.
Does having great access to F U money and power make it worth the sacrifices of integrity and character you have to make to be accepted members into The Club? You decide. I personally passed on following that pathway several decades ago. Evidence of that is that I am a QTreeper.
Next Up
Less darkness, more light. Fun and butterflies. Until then…
My hope is that you have invested time into the HOH series. I believe you will find it worth it starting today if you have questioned the commitment. I wanted to shorten this one. Impossible. It simply has too many nuggets to shorten.
There is a soothing peace one receives in his or her spirit when he or she is no longer chained to the expectations of others and the world. The black hats will still throw their spears at you. Friends and loved ones will still disappoint you on occasion. The bank account and gas tank may run low along with your patience. However, you know what you know and evil can no longer have access to your heart and soul. Your wisdom and discernment regarding what you see and experience grow rapidly.
At this point in life in the mid-90’s my personal rebuilding project had begun. I received confirmation quickly that my career choice was blessed as there was early success. Even back then I was doing what now is in vogue, working from a bedroom office at home, calling on prospects and referral sources at their places of business while taking them to lunch occasionally. Using an old school approach with personal service. My faith journey at church and at home began to evolve quickly.
Almost a year after I left my ill-fated job with the equipment dealer, our lives would change dramatically through a very difficult experience that proved to be priceless in value. We learned the Godly principle that our prayers are always answered, just not always as expected. This will be discussed in a future story with more Goober Gump adventures.
Let’s begin with: Are you aware you can commit a federal white collar crime, whether with intent or not, in such a way that it is difficult to prosecute in criminal court, or, can be sheltered by the alphabets in a legal and judicial way to make it appear difficult to prosecute? A constructed situation on both sides of justice, which they will then allow you to buy your way out of potential prosecution in a federal investigation. Sort of a federal pre-trial or even pre-charge intervention. Maybe you have heard about this or suspected it happened.
You are about to learn MOAR! I’ll try not to bore our attorney/legal expert Qtreepers on here who know far more about the specifics than I do. However, average folks may want to know the method exists and a summary of how it works with an example.
Guess which POTUS exponentially increased the usage of that negotiated settlement in civil court for criminal claims maneuver? There’s that name again – Slick. HW’s good buddy. Cranked it up in the mid-1990’s while causing raised eyebrows in the legal community; definition of “is” being what it “is” and all.
Guess which past AG paved the way for its higher usage going back to PRR and as AG for HW? Yeah, this guy…
Some of us PRR fans will remember B2’s impassioned defense of the use of pardons, which was highlighted in the Iran-Contra mess. He pushed them across the finish line later for HW. As far as the previously referenced negotiated settlement of potential charges or trial issue, in a largely scrubbed TV interview in discussion of the bad cops in the FBI who were exposed during the Mueller Investigation and FISA scandals, he stated that not all criminal actions of government employees should rise to the level of imprisonment (paraphrased from memory). He clearly indicated that bad cops like Comey, McCabe, etc. losing their jobs and possibly their pensions was probably enough unless they were proven to have committed more heinous crimes. What could be more heinous to America than committing treason with foreign nations and conspirators to frame a sitting POTUS? In essence B2 promotes softening the landing of the players with pardons and negotiated settlements for gotcha’s and caughtya’s regardless of intent. He set up a system that gives discretionary authority to DODGE and the judiciary.
At the same time he covers for this discretionary administration of justice principle he pushed across by lamenting and bashing the two scales of justice we see today.
We did, jackwad. They stole the elections and you knew they would before it happened.
Hypocrite. May not have been the mastermind, but he was the promoter and implementer of two scales of justice over a long period of time. B2’s a card carrying member of the inner circle of The Club who has been activated as needed. Sundance has stated rightly, he’s the Bondo.
We can even begin to see why PDT agreed to bring him in as AG to kill the corrupt Mueller farce, which would better protect those he hired and family members.
We can also see serious potential downside of these pre-trial/charge interventions with how they can be used to extort people not in or involved with The Club via false allegations and charges such that bad cops can rip them off for money that goes into the alphabets’ coffers. We can also see where it is used by those in power to achieve nefarious purposes with payback being escape from charges and trial if caught.
Which begs the question – where do the real intervention case settlement funds and the extorted money go after collection? I confess to not knowing the answer, but I am quite sure it does not go for the benefit of We the People.
We have now established the predicate for what happens next.
In addition to media reports and other personal experiences; the legal sources of my information about interventions were senior partners in the law firm of now deceased GOP Senator Howard Baker. He of Watergate, Senate Majority and Minority leader fame. For what it is worth, one of the senior partners was a business associate and a lifelong Democrat. That says something about the Uniparty for those paying attention.
Pilot’s Progress
As previously discussed, Pilot was flying even higher through the period. I will no longer bore you with a lot of operational detail, just will discuss key events in their history that are important for seeing how The Club works a bit better. The official Pilot Flying J corporate history is available for all to see on the web.
My personal involvement with the Haslam’s stopped at this point, however, what I learned from others in the local business and legal community continued. I learned I was not alone in my reformulation of opinions about Big Jim, Jimmy and others in the Haslam family’s circle of influence, which included many attorneys and business associates. At this point Big Jim was less involved with daily operations due to age and other interests, yet, used his profile and influence in other ways. Philanthropy, sports, UT and politics appeared to dominate his and Natalie’s days. As an example The Warrior Queen highly benefited from Big Jim’s and the local Club’s support. With the huge, newly constructed Thompson-Boling Arena opening in 1987, the largest on campus facility in America at that time, the basketball floor was later named The Summitt as the Lady Vols program became the gold standard in women’s collegiate athletics. Pilot sponsored all UT sports programs and athletic events since Big Jim was carrying a big stick at the university along with a handful of other wealthy businessmen, boosters and donors.
However, the following made a lot in my circle wonder about the reality at the time. Pilot sponsored an annual Chamber or Rotary (cannot remember – does it matter?) event at the Hyatt that I attended with this guy as keynote speaker…
NEW YORK, NY – OCTOBER 22: Ted Turner attends the 2014 Global Leadership Dinner at Cipriani 42nd Street on October 22, 2014 in New York City. (Photo by Mike Pont/FilmMagic)
Fidel’s comrade. That along with many other horrible things he said, did and promoted.
Then there was this guy who spoke at UT as recently as 2013. The same UT where the Haslam family donated millions to build the Howard H. Baker, Jr. Center for Public Policy. Better known as the Future Uniparty Student Development Center.
H/T to Wolf for the photo reminder today…
Before Brokaw and after Turner, there was Tim Russert as keynote speaker at the Hyatt sponsored by Pilot among others. It finally dawned on me years later that a key groomer and intermediary into it all was Mr DIY himself, GOP RINO Ross Bagwell…
Ross with daughter, Dee Haslam
Ross went to NY to finish school. Afterwards he went to work at NBC – media home to all things globalist. He was introduced and worked with the Uniparty globalists and brought methodology back home to Knoxville and to inject into state GOP politics. He connected the Haslam family tighter to the politics and media in DC and NY, including marrying Dee into the family.
Think about the subtle ramifications. Pilot sponsored an evil globalist business/media mogul commie along with two globalist commie media hacks to speak at globalist events to spread more commie propaganda to whoever would listen in a nationally perceived red flyover hillbilly state.
Maybe Tennessee was not the red flyover hillbilly state the MSM portrayed it to be. Maybe it was being operated undercover, sort of like Arkansas. More on that in later Goober Gump stories.
But I am getting ahead of this story, so back to the Pilot history at the turn of the century. Big Jim really had taught his boys the business. Jimmy had continued to assert himself and company control with his no holds barred management style and borderline ethics, which was not Bill’s style at all. Bill was more thoughtful, analytical and reflective in his approach; with a nature more like his deceased mother. After twenty years in the family business he had learned a great deal, handled his role well, and become wealthy. However, his heart was elsewhere and he no longer seemed to want to play the game with Jimmy anymore. He left and appeared to have employment flings with Saks and Harold’s. In reality he needed something to do while GOP RINO Victor Ashe was finishing his second term as Knoxville’s Mayor. He needed time to prepare out of the spotlights of Knoxville and Pilot. What better way to do it than by spending time in NY with Saks and other globalists while learning the ropes for a few years. Realizing another big opportunity, Big Jim pulled in the GOP support and the campaign began. Bill’s sister, Ann, even campaigned for him door to door. Bill won with 53% of the vote. Politics became another family enterprise.
The key events of Pilot from the 90’s forward were about going nationwide and becoming even more dominant. It led again to partnering up with old friends, Marathon, in 2001. This time they rolled in 223 travel centers into one investment entity that included the centers I had underwritten and our bank participation financing handled a decade before. Marathon had merged with Ashland and grown their supply to handle much more volume. They saw the joint ownership opportunity as an investment for future marketshare and capital if their interest was ever sold.
In 2010 they merged the company with anther industry stalwart, Flying J. The combined company was then over 550 travel centers with Pilot having management and Board control. They had grown to top ten nationally in privately held businesses for market value. In 2017, the ownership sold a 38% ownership stake to Berkshire Hathaway. With the deal Buffett and Berkshire also gained the rights to buy up to an 80% stake in Pilot Flying J in 2023. The company now has over 750 travel centers in the U. S. and Canada while doing over $20 Billion in revenues annually.
After decades of honest intent as well as intentional deception, acceptance into the inner circle of The Club will be complete next year. But it did not happen the way it was planned or anticipated.
NFL & White Collar Crime
As stated in Part One, Jimmy and Dee are controlling owners of the Cleveland Browns. They paid $1 B+ for it from Randy Lerner in 2012. Jimmy had set his sights on NFL team ownership well before then. He was able to purchase an ownership interest in the gold standard org of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2008. With that experience he was accepted into the NFL owners’ inner circle, which made the purchase of the Browns easier to get done. It is interesting that the Times of Israel reported the purchase ended 51 consecutive years of Jewish ownership of the team. Maybe the purchase of the Browns was coincidental. However, the stadium for the team is located just 15 minutes away from the headquarters of Pilot Flying J’s primary competitor, TravelCenters of America.
Soon the highs of realizing that long held dream and love for a sport would be nuked into the low point in their company’s history. Unannounced, FIB walked into the Knoxville headquarters of Pilot Flying J in 2013. They left with everything they needed to make a strong federal criminal case against key personnel in the company with Jimmy himself under the microscope. Seems key senior management, including the Pilot President, Mark Hazelwood, had knowingly participated in a scheme to steal contracted rebates from many commercial trucking company accounts over a period of 5 years. Millions of dollars were involved and the participants received part of the ill-gotten gain as personal income with Pilot Flying J pocketing the rest. There were blatant racist statements and defamation of some of their less sophisticated commercial customers on tapes made by a whistleblower turned informant.
Jimmy pled ignorance. Audio tapes recorded by the whistleblower seemed to indicate otherwise. The statements made about less sophisticated commercial customers by several managers started a firestorm that was uncontrollable.
So he followed the raid with these remarks at a hastily called press conference:
As a result in a wise move, Pilot Flying J and Jimmy decided they better cut deals. As part of the deals, they agreed to continue to pay for legal representation of the employees that contested federal charges until their cases were adjudicated. The media questioned why would they do that if the employees violated company policies and the law? Jimmy claimed it was company “tradition” to do so. Or, in my opinion it was code for, “It’s payment for them to keep quiet and protect my tail.” You decide.
Word is that the mess cost them $190+ million in federal fines and customer restitution along with taking it on the chin with many commercial corporate clients. The tapes were damning. Many lower level staff members and managers pled guilty for plea deals after coming clean with details. A handful of senior mangers, including Hazelwood fought on. Interestingly, he lost in his first trial. That judge is African American with Hazelwood being white. He filed an appeal for a new trial as he felt he was not treated fairly at all through the proceedings. He made charges of reverse discrimination against the judge during his first trial. His request for a new trial was approved by a federal appellate court this year, along with that of two other employees. In essence, Jimmy’s crony that knows the extent of his boss’ involvement is working a path toward freedom or a reduced sentence/fine that is being provided through the judicial system. That is happening combined with the statute of limitations running out for charging Jimmy in April 2018. Shocked face…
That statute of limitations expired about 6 months after the 38.6% interest in the company was purchased by Berkshire. It would appear that DODGE gave the all clear to Buffett to complete the deal as Jimmy remained the Chairman and the family retained 50.1% majority interest with the provision that Berkshire would purchase an additional 41.4% in 2023, leaving them with the remaining 20% interest.
The fines Pilot willingly agreed to pay the feds were related to a negotiated financial settlement to avoid trial expenses and potentially even higher losses. There was no Weissmann, Enron style attacks. I guess Andrew was too busy with other legal schemes at the time. More likely he knew they were Club members. We would never be granted access to see it all, but I can almost guarantee there was a personal check or funds transfer written by Jimmy for a settlement of criminal claims against him through the civil system. No admission of guilt required, no public release of documents, and on with life.
With this behind him, Jimmy has turned his attention to pro sports and trying to make the Browns better while buying franchises in other pro sports. In a typical, tone deaf move he recently made a deal with the Houston Texans for Deshaun Watson as their QB. The same Watson who has been accused of sexual advances and harassment by over 25 masseuses and been suspended by the NFL for one or more seasons, who recently wrote checks to settle over 20 of the lawsuits. Right up Jimmy’s alley. All while they disrespected their existing injured starting QB, Baker Mayfield, who they later unceremoniously traded to Carolina. Use ’em, abuse ’em and toss ’em away when they become less useful.
A sign in the lobby of Pilot Flying J headquarters says, “We do the right thing — Integrity comes first.” Big Jim had it installed there decades ago. See the above referenced scandals.
Big Jim was quoted in an ESPN story not long after the FIB raid. “You ask what I’m proudest of Jimmy for?” Big Jim says. “It’s how he’s handled all this since April 15. It’s just like I would’ve hoped he’d handle it. He realizes he’s in charge and he’s going to stay in charge.
“We’ve learned a lot, and nothing like this will ever happen again.”
Revealing, huh? Apple did not fall far from the tree it appears. Why did it happen at all, Big Jim? I mean, it was five years of it. That’s not a mistake. It appears you are covering for your son and company getting caught, not for having done it. Are we supposed to believe nothing like that had ever occurred under your watch?
Words mean one thing, actions frequently mean another. The Club uses money and media influence to cover the intent and purpose as needed.
Some things never change. But when you are in the inner circle of The Club, what does it matter? Pay some money after mistakes and scandals and they simply go away. There will be even more money to make up for it when you get to play in the bigger leagues. Like what was announced last week.
In recap, we have Berkshire controlling Burlington Northern railroad which transports oil, fuel, fertilizer, etc.; while Dem politicians are shutting down oil and gas pipelines; while the RINO’s stand down with their thumbs up their arses; while Berkshire buys 80% control of Pilot to have the largest fuel distribution network for commercial trucking in North America; who has entered into a national EV charging network arrangement that caters to GM’s EV vehicle expansion; while buddy Gates and others globalists and nations who hate us are buying up farmland and into food production of all types. And so it goes on and on.
Yeah, the RINO’s are as thick as thieves with the Dems. They plan to do the green idiocy anyway. Follow the money. They don’t even need congressional approval and they certainly don’t care about the desires of We the People. Be informed. The moderate (RINO) wing of the GOP has been controlled opposition for over 70 years. The only person on the planet who has been proven able to stop it and reverse course for We the People is named Donald J. Trump, along with the help of his supporters and patriots.
As far as where We the People stand, we either acknowledge we are in a civil war and fight it, or just go quietly into the good night. Fighting well does not necessarily include violence, but it does include the righteous delivery of justice and truth as each situation may demand.
We will conclude the HOH series with some what ifs and other stuff with the next part. It’s time to have some fun, get some R&R, jump into some rabbit holes, make some observations and ask some thought provoking questions. Until next time…
In the wake of Wheatie Warrior’s passing, we renew the site mission by directly addressing “things unspoken” – now brought into the light.
In the immediate aftermath of the passing of our dear Wheatie, announced last Monday, I chose to deal with only the most substantive technicalities, in large part so that we could properly grieve, and not get caught up in mundane and mortal technicalities. Thus, many important questions for discussion were set aside.
I will deal with those items, and much more, in this post.
(More mood music from Wheatie can be found at the end.)
Wheatie Warrior
Unlike the expected passings of some of our other comrades, Wheatie was, for lack of a better term, “missing in action”. There are reasons for this, and they bear explanation.
In giving you some explanations, I will be limiting what I tell you for TWO reasons.
ONE is out of respect for Wheatie’s desire for privacy. All authors and posters here can expect the same respect. If you want to consciously, knowingly, and with extreme intention, tell the world who you are, that is fine with me. Otherwise, I will assume you want some privacy, and by default will protect that privacy – even upon your illness, death, or simply leaving of this site – no matter under what circumstances. Maintaining your privacy does not include legitimate concerns of law enforcement, blah-blah-blah. Note, however, that I said “legitimate”.
TWO is in order to maintain site security. Keeping the enemy guessing is useful.
SO – why was Wheatie “missing in action”?
In contrast to most of the authors and commenters here, Wheatie was extremely careful to shield her identity. She did not wander far from this site. She didn’t post on “big tech” social media, other than Gab, and that was only after its security was proven, and after Gab was chosen as a secure posting back-up for this site.
Wheatie’s computer security was “minimally divulged” and “not negotiable”. Very often, with authors, I have to deal with security (or lack thereof) and/or permissions needed to work on posts or to upload information, the requirements of which are more rigorous than for merely commenting. Thus, I often learn a lot about an author’s practices of and attitudes toward computer security. They range, and that’s OK.
I will not get into Wheatie’s exact security measures, but they were substantial. Wheatie NEVER allowed convenience to trump security. She would NEVER lower security in order to comment on a site, create an account, watch a video, etc. Wheatie was a ROCK on the items needed to keep this site safe, and her identity private.
Indeed, the only people who appear to have ever gotten past her security, of which I am aware, was the Q team.
That is, in fact, why Wheatie was trusted by me, as she was trusted “in real life”. She NEVER let emotions get in the way of logical thinking, when it came to security. She was cool as a cucumber in tricky situations.
SO – without giving you the details, which would help our enemies, I can tell you that Wheatie’s own security measures likely prevented her from contacting us when she became ill, and until her death.
I want to repeat that. Wheatie was so mission-focused that she did not break her own security policy, or allow somebody else to break it, to let us know that she was in trouble.
Indeed, Wheatie tended to keep mum about most of her medical dealings, other than minor details about symptoms she was experiencing.
All of this combined to make it very difficult to find out what happened to Wheatie, when she went missing. We were very lucky, in fact, that she had divulged a few small things to me, ironically in the interest of assisting with site security. That was enough to help make a “positive ID”. Without that information, we might have never known for sure what happened to her.
Now – this would have all been a “bonk on my head” to start opening up a bit more with you – not just about my own situation, but about YOUR need to “make arrangements”, so that you, too, are not “missing in action” someday.
But there was another death that hit me particularly hard, which gave me a “double-bonk”.
My Friend, The Spy Popular Guy
There is nothing that will wake one up to one’s own mortality faster than a younger friend or relative dying. And that is exactly what happened to me.
At some point during the first half of this year – basically while Wheatie was MIA – I had another friend – a close friend – who “died suddenly and unexpectedly”. And “suspiciously”, I might add, in the words of the police.
Yeah, you are immediately thinking EXACTLY what I’m thinking.
IT WAS PROBABLY THE FUCKING JABS.
I do know that my friend HAD to have been jabbed, because it was a condition to go back to on-site work, after roughly two years of work-at-home. Indeed, he had JUST started going back to on-site work at that employer – which I can tell you for a FACT is “deep state” as all get-out.
That employer has a rather sneaky total vaccination requirement. Everybody has to go back to partial on-site work, and everybody who works on-site has to be jabbed. That kind of “two-step from hell” logic is par for the course with this DS outfit.
“Oh, no – we don’t require our employees to be vaccinated. Only if they are on site.”
“But you’re requiring everybody to work on site.”
“People who are required to work on-site are only required to work on site part of the time.”
“But on the days they are required to work on site, they’re required to be vaccinated – no?”
“You’ll have to talk to our Washington office about the exact specifics of the policy.”
OMG – the double-talk.
Now – as far as I know – the circumstances of death point to stroke or heart attack. The trouble is that, when I go into “I’m not a medical examiner, but I slept at a Holiday Inn Express” mode, I realize without too much deep thought, that it could also have been a “George Floyd” type of death – e.g., a fentanyl-induced heart stoppage, or something similar. AND – sadly – because this person had been a known toker and party guy in his youth, any murder with drugs will likely stick as a drug death, despite the fact that this guy NEVER did hard drugs or popped pills, to my knowledge. He had not even toked in decades, to my knowledge. But unfortunately for the truth, a past like his can be used quite easily as cover. Families and survivors will ASSIST in the cover-up of a drug death.
You may be asking “why would Wolf worry that his friend might have been murdered?” Hang in there – I’ll get to it.
My friend was in excellent health – mild high blood pressure being treated – but otherwise robust. Running, cycling, tennis, ping-pong, backpacking – you name it, he did it. Good weight, good habits, good lifestyle.
It was definitely NOT suicide. No note, no obvious means, and the most happy-go-lucky guy on Earth, with everything going right and looking forward to an excellent retirement.
He could have retired at any time, and THAT is where I’m guilty of not saving him from the jab.
You see, this guy – I am certain – was connected to some agency or entity – I just don’t know who. White hat – black hat – gray hat – sun visor – whatever – he was either working for somebody, informing for somebody, or (and this is quite certain) had friends who were “somebody”. It could have even been that he was “nobody” – but EVERYBODY was watching him because of his connections.
And it gets MORE complicated. My friend was everybody’s friend. “Everybody” included absolutely anybody and everybody who you might think was a foreign or domestic spy, a player, an asset, an informant, a defector, or even just a potential mass shooter. He just “accidentally” made it a point to know all the “interesting” people. It was uncanny.
I never knew where my friend took information, but it was clear he was scooping up knowledge for somebody – and also carrying out some kind of “orders of influence” – but it was impossible to separate the real person from his apparent “mission”. And on top of that, his life was full of contradictory cover. He could have been a very good spy – or just a nobody.
Trust me – he was not a nobody.
This guy was an exceptional person – as in an exceptionally good person. He wasn’t a church-goer – far from it – but he had been raised in a godly family, by a deeply religious mother, and it showed. Despite hanging out with some of the most anti-Christian people you can imagine, he showed all of the Christian virtues in spades, to an almost Biblical degree. There were times that I wondered if he wasn’t some kind of “undercover angel”, if you know what I’m saying.
And all of that ended – mysteriously – some time after he took the jab.
But here’s the thing.
One of the biggest reasons he took the jab is because I stopped giving him information.
I stopped giving him information because of January Sixth.
I stopped giving him information because I knew that my conversations with him were always recorded by somebody – probably FIB – and that whoever was behind him would pressure him into asking about January Sixth.
And it’s not just because I expected ANYTHING I said about January Sixth to be abused by the disgraceful DODGE and FIB.
You see, there are things about January Sixth – things I saw that day – that I have not told anybody. Things that I have not told you all. Things that have implications I don’t understand.
Things that are – as I like to call them – potential “nukes”.
For my own selfish battle reasons, I didn’t tell him the information that could have saved him, about the jabs.
What could I have done differently?
Were I a better and more courageous person, I would have taken his calls. I would have warned him about the jab. I would have – ultimately – talked him out of it. I would have told him everything I knew – all my scientific thinking about it. I would have let him follow along on my journey from “hopeful believer” in the jabs, to “red-pilled realist” warning people against them. I would have said “RETIRE NOW! Take your money and GTFO while you can. Don’t let that place kill you!”
And yet, all of that is still “love of this world”. What if HE did the right thing by just letting the jabs kill him, innocently? What if – weirdly – the disease and the jabs are God’s way of evacuating the righteous from this sinful world?
I will always be second-guessing what I did and didn’t do – just like the guy who I let the ChiComs destroy and drive nuts at “shallow state”, so that I wouldn’t spill my secret knowledge that his boss had been identified to me as a ChiCom asset.
THIS MORTAL WORLD IS ROUGH. Our actions suck. Our inactions suck. Our justifications stink in the nostrils of The Lord. Or reasoning is foul and filled with error.
So – where does that leave me? Other than two steps from hell?
Wolficarditis
I have generally been vague about my health issues or lack thereof, to create as much uncertainty as possible. The “event people” are constantly looking for plausible excuses for their little arranged deaths, so it’s generally advisable to keep as much medical privacy as possible.
The problem is, both openness and secrecy can be used by the other side. Sometimes, oddly, openness is more of a friend than secrecy. After Wheatie’s passing, and that of my friend, I’ve begun to see more virtue in a bit more openness.
So you’re going to get some.
I’m actually in pretty good health for my age, but after my initial bout of Wuhan-vintage COVID, in January 2020, my level of health became erratic.
What I did NOT tell people here, when I talked about “taking care of health matters”, is that I was in the hospital a few times.
Generally speaking, I don’t like to let people know that I’m in the hospital, if I can possibly avoid it. Worse still, I also found it easier to just keep the secret after getting out of the hospital. I don’t know if that was such a good idea now.
I definitely had a cardiac inflammation which I’m going to call “wolficarditis”, to retain just a wee bit of ambiguity on the diagnosis. We will never be exactly sure what caused it, but I can tell you that it was not the jabs, because I never took one.
There is some possibility that my wolficarditis was “smoldering” since either Wuhan (Jan 2020) or Delta (Nov 2021). Or, alternatively, it could have been caused by a later brief, mild, illness which was probably either omicron or flu (but which tested negative for COVID on the initial and only test).
The first time in the hospital, between Wuhan and Delta, was mysterious. It involved odd and extremely unusual high blood pressure, weak pulse, altered vision, and distorted time perception. Looking at it now, it may very well have been what our member Happy go luckydescribed to us recently – a lacunar stroke – or perhaps a similar type of intermittent blockage.
Anyway, ironically, I’m now doing exactly what I need to do for BOTH wolficarditis and wolfmoonar stroke. I feel great, and will continue to do so, until I don’t.
And when I don’t, I will make sure that there is a PLAN in place, to deal with the issue, and any potential aftermath.
So let’s start talking about plans.
Your Personal Plan
If you are happy with being able to come and go from this site unnoticed, to depart with quiet mystery from this site forevermore, when you depart this world, then we’re done here. You can move on to the next section of this post. You like your privacy, and…..
“Privacy is not a crime.”
People here have no need or right to know what happened to you, if you leave the site for any reason – temporarily or permanently.
That said, friendships develop, and we worry about our friends worrying. Many of us have been together on this site for approaching 4 years, and for many of us, 4 to 8 years on CTH before that. Think about it! That’s a long time. We have talked more to each other online, than with many “real” friends in “real life”!!!
Thus, if you’re one of those people who feels a need to “stay in touch” with the group here, in the event of hospitalization or death, then please read on.
When I talked about what happened to Wheatie, two people – cthulhu and Aubergine – immediately commented about making arrangements for the blog to be notified in the event of tragedy. Cthulhu estimated only a 30% chance of this “digital legacy” working – Aubergine estimated 15%. That will do in a pinch, but hopefully this post will give all of you some tips to raise the percentage.
First, let me explain something important. ANYBODY can post on this site, and I WILL see it. This means that you can always get word to the gang via me or one of the authors.
So – if you are in the hospital, and can get online somehow, or can instruct somebody else to get online, all they have to do is get on this site (theqtree.com) on somebody’s phone and leave a comment AS A GUEST on any post, and I WILL see it, and it will NOT publish. If you want it to be for my eyes only, then make the comment on any one of my posts, such as the Monday open thread – otherwise, depat, bakocarl, SteveinCO, or any other author of that post particular post will ALSO see the comment (in addition to me).
You don’t have to use your normal information on this strange device, although you can do it if you want to do it. Perhaps you’re using a trusted relative’s device. Perhaps you’re borrowing a phone from a nurse or hospital staff member. The point is, you can identify yourself in the message of the comment. If I need to, I’ll respond to you in the same article or daily open thread.
The reason this works is that ALL NEW COMMENTS from new users, as well as comments with a new origin or some other change (including spelling errors), will always go into moderation, where I will see them.
You are “never alone” from your friends from this site, if you can get on the internet somehow.
However, this only takes care of situations where YOU are able to communicate. What if you can’t? What if you are intubated in an ICU, in a coma, or even GONE?
For these situations, you need to leave instructions with SOMEBODY. Those instructions can be at any level of formality or legality. AGAIN, your friends and relatives can ALL comment on this site, and I will get their comment in moderation, if they have never commented here before. I can then make a judgement of what information should be passed on to the group, per the instructions passed on to me.
You are welcome to test this out on a friend or family member’s device. I will NOT approve the comment, but I will tell you if it worked. That way it will work exactly the same, the next time, in a real situation.
Some people leave a digital legacy – which is a new feature in the Apple world. This means that people can leave control of their devices to a spouse, friend, relative, or business partner.
Other people leave their usernames and passwords to their survivors. Still others end up having some computer or phone professional get into the devices – if it’s even possible.
Please feel free to discuss personal plans in the comments, or to “test out” your plan, if you’re unsure.
But now, we have to talk about something else.
We have to talk about my plan for the site.
The Group Plan
The advantage of having a single admin who is a “security hardcore” is that there are very few social hacks that can get around site security. The disadvantage is that this single point of failure means that the entire site may fail. And yet, THAT is part of the plan. Most members here are already active on several allied sites. We also have a Gab group where people can meet freely. We have plenty of back-up. This site can disappear tomorrow, and the GROUP survives.
The value of our site is not in the archival content, as much as it is in the organic continuity of research and understanding. The primary strength of the site is in our evolving conversation and thoughts, which include many alternative viewpoints and beliefs.
Our strength is in our community, not in this site per se.
Thus, I always regard our community as its own failsafe plan. If something happens to me, and/or to this site, you all will figure out what to do.
Indeed, some of us made continuity plans in the very beginning of the site. The strategy was somewhat Alexandrian. By many of us secretly preparing to lead future alternative sites, the regime would have to play whack-a-mole to stop us.
And look at us now. Look how many healthy, viable, and active or potentially active blogs and discussion sites were created by members here.
THAT is our true safety net. This site can literally VANISH OVERNIGHT, and yet the GROUP lives on.
Now, since none of you noticed my being in the hospital, any of the times it happened, it would seem that my plan for such circumstances is both working and well-tested.
The problem is, that if I die, there need to be further arrangements. I will be shoring up the contingency plans for my “sudden departure” during the next few months. My main concern is preservation of the contents on the internet. It is likely that I can leave a small trust to support the site for a number of months or years, or at least long enough to copy the contents, if desired. The problem is then handing over administration. That gets tricky, and I need to consider the options. That will not be arranged in the open.
Right now, the cost of the site is roughly $1500 a year, but it will likely rise rapidly under Bidenomics. For other reasons, however, we may also want to move the site to a new host, depending upon what happens with our nutty regime trying to start World War III. In that event, the cost may increase or decrease. We have already been hit by a 10% energy cost increase. Don’t ask about the exact circumstances – just know that Biden is why.
Therefore, in the event of my demise, it may be best to “start over” on a free site somewhere, with a new admin, and then re-grow from that colonization.
We’ll see. I will say this. I’m not worried.
In God We Trust
You can worry about your legacy here – or you can forget about it. Ultimately, God is in control, and will correct your errors. Trusting in God will see you through.
The world to worry about is not this one – it is the spiritual world that only vaguely but beautifully intersects our own world, through us. Stand up for Truth, and the Spirit of Truth which defends Truth. Defend the Kingdom of Heaven, and its footprint in this world.
Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust. But from that fire, arises a light that pleases The Lord. Help to make it so.
I am PROUD to have been marching to the Capitol Building in the same parade as Kathy Barnette. I VERY MUCH understand why Trump didn’t endorse her, but we all have to make choices.
She chose to be there, and to protest peacefully, just like me. Just like thousands of other decent, hard-working, law-abiding AMERICANS who cannot STAND the injustice of a blatantly stolen election.
Many days, I regret that I’m not in DC GITMO with those other protesters. Yeah, I was smart, thanks to my friend Suspicious Cat, not to go inside the Capitol Building, but I will not let that “Robert The Bruce” moment keep me from doing the right thing now. I need to use my freedom on the outside to champion for those who suffer under this criminal regime, run out of Eric Holder’s corrupt, partisan, socialist DOJ.
I would rather LOSE with Kathy Barnette, than WIN with Dr. Mehmet Oz.
I find it funny and ironic that there could indeed be “too much winning” with Oz. I never thought that I would be the one to yell “Too Much Winning!”, but yeah – here we are!
I may depart from Trump on this one, but I fully trust TRUMP GRAVITY to hold this movement together!
No matter how you feel about the candidates in the Pennsylvania primary, I will respect your choice. Barnette, McCormick, Oz, or one of the others. Whoever you choose, listen to your conscience, but I urge you to keep your peace and good cheer with patriots who choose differently.
