NOW: There are “ADVANCED” Iranian plots to assassinate American officials overseas, according to a memo to Sec. MARCO RRUBIO from DNI Jay Clayton — Axios

PRAY FOR ALL OF THEM

Clayton says Iran has “substantially increased” its targeting of U.S. officials

The State Department is already pulling nonessential staff out of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Jordan and Lebanon

President Trump’s warning today: “We may do another little Operation Epic Fury” unless Iran caves

The regime is plotting to m*rder Americans, STILL…

Tehran should be VERY careful!

Just remember that 47 is in office through Jan. 2029. The midterms have NO BEARING on that. He can unleash, whenever.

I’m reposting this again in case you are late to the party.

Slow Guy feeling good about the mid terms.

BREAKING: FLORIDA REPUBLICANS DID IT AGAIN — they just led today’s early voting by R+12.7 POINTS with over 108,000 THOUSAND REPs casting a ballot Today:

Republican: 46.2% (+12.7)

Democrat: 33.5% With mail, Dems’ statewide lead is merely 8K ballots! WIPE IT OUT TOMORROW. More red counties will be opening

GOP netted almost +30K ballots on Democrats today alone. Some how, some way, GOP is still holding its own in the mail, which is R+0.1 from 2024 and 2022 while we catch up in-person Keep voting!

—

LET’S GO! In an election integrity LEGAL WIN, Lansing, Michigan just caved and BACKED DOWN on their attempts to stack its poll workers against Republicans and in favor of Democrats This is the state where Mike Rogers needs to crush Abdul!

Keep suing, they are trying to cheat EVERYWHERE. In the primary, Lansing used 140 Democrat poll workers and just 71 Republicans, nearly 2 to 1, even though Michigan law requires the parties to be as close to even as possible Now the city has to call and train EVERY GOP nominee and put at least one Republican inspector at every precinct and counting board Why do they not want Republicans looking at the polls?!

IT’S OFFICIAL: The Trump DOJ could go to the US SUPREME COURT after appealing to the 9th Circuit to sequester *20,000* California likely-noncitizen ballots ELECTION INTEGRITY, at ALL costs

“If they had such conclusive evidence we were wrong, they’d probably put it online! All they can say is we disagree about some names? Tell us! They think we’re right and they’re trying to RUN OUT THE CLOCK and we won’t let that happen.” LA County is as corrupt as it gets. These traitors are literally trying to count THOUSANDS of noncitizen votes to cancel out Americans California spent months fighting DOJ to keep its voter rolls hidden. Now that the feds found possible problems, the state’s answer is basically “trust me bro” DO NOT COUNT THOSE BALLOTS. We might need SCOTUS!

JUST IN: The Trump administration is offering El Salvador FULL SUPPORT as right-wing President Nayib Bukele surges special forces into Haiti to rescue four of his soldiers taken by gangs BUKELE is a great ally to the US, so we are returning the favor!

Gangs ambushed the four Salvadoran aviation technicians on Sunday According to Ambassador Mike Waltz, they hit the armored vehicle with hundreds of rounds and explosives, but officials believe all four SURVIVED. Bukele has now sent around 200 special operations troops, and he had a message for the gangs: “We’ve already finished off the gangs in El Salvador, and we can finish off yours too.”

Do not mess with@nayibbukele‘s troops!

UPDATE: Kaylub Giamanco, the dad who killed the Bend, Oregon school shooter, gives credit to the unarmed TEACHER who fought the gunman with her BARE HANDS

“I want to recognize HER. SHE gave me the opportunity to make my shot without losing my life…That’s a real TRUE hero, to not have a weapon and to put yourself in between your babies and a firearm.”

This man is pure selfless. Give him a medal of freedom!

Police say she threw her PHONE at the 16-year-old gunman, then tackled him and fought for the gun. That gave Giamanco the shot he needed

When the gunman went for his weapon again, Giamanco fired two more times “to make sure that he couldn’t move”

He saved countless lives, and he’s still apologizing: “I want to apologize for not saving their babies.”

Man, this guy is a hero with a heart of gold.

HUGE: Former Clarence Thomas clerk John Yoo reveals Ilhan “Omar” Nur Said Elmi must be EJECTED FROM CONGRESS as soon as it’s proven she’s operating as a citizen under false information

“This is NOT a laughing matter, no matter how much the Congresswoman is GIGGLING on TV.”

“The minute that it’s discovered that she either filed false naturalization papers or was part of conspiracy to do so, she’s not a citizen and she has to be ejected from Congress immediately, and she really was never legitimately elected to Congress for the last few years.”

The Constitution requires House members to have been citizens for at least seven years. If her citizenship was obtained by fraud, she never met that requirement!

A DOJ filing already referred to her as “Ilhan Nur Said Elmi.” When she was asked whether she’s related to Elmi, her answer was “not to my knowledge,” but the evidence is AGAINST HER

IT’S HAPPENING.

Time for Speaker Johnson to take the steps to disqualify her on the name ALONE

—

JUST IN: SecWar Hegseth announces the Pentagon designated CCP-linked Confucius Institutes as NATIONAL SECURITY THREATS and has now officially WIPED OUT 80 disguised Chinese propaganda cells hiding inside 30 American universities BIG WIN!

“These Chinese government-backed propaganda cultural programs had infiltrated our nation’s universities in almost every state… they came back disguised in new forms, just like DEI does.” “80 new propaganda cells across 30 universities had popped up using different names and different charters, but with the same mission: to steal intellectual property and to infiltrate the minds of American students.” Now the War Department has labeled them a national security threat and dismantled every one in the last two months. “No more, and never again.” BOOM.

—

BREAKING — IT’S HAPPENING: Secretary of State Marco Rubio just publicly called on Cubans to work with the CIA to BRING DOWN the communist regime THE REGIME IS SWEATING NOW…

“To those who seek to create positive change in Cuba – now is the time… seize this opportunity to create the change you desire through a discrete partnership with the CIA.” This comes after Trump confirmed on stage Cuba night be next and Marco would have a role!

For more than 65 years, the Castro regime has delivered nothing but poverty, blackouts and repression, while the ruling commies live in LUXURY A sitting Secretary of State openly inviting a regime’s own people to team up with the CIA is almost unheard of. IT IS TIME

Grateful our ancestors broke the British chains, again, and again…

Thankfully, Trump is finishing off the Brits, Canucks… Along with NATO. Ideally UN.

Stay The Course. Trust Trump. Remember…

Never, Ever, forget what they did to us.

Living in America: Monday Morning Quarterbacking – Education & Deportation

As many of you read this, we will be enjoying most excellent adventure known as the Fall Frolic in the lowcountry. As time permits I will return to post responses. I look forward to your comments.

Today’s thread is about two subjects with interconnections that run in parallel with one another. As one goes, so goes the other. Many who read my stories will spot that as a recurring literary theme. There is even the added flavor of a long standing Club Senate uniparty member holding We the People hostage to help enforce the status quo of an industry’s wannabe tyrants; a situation I will introduce at the end of today’s story.

The current states of institutionalized education and MAGA driven deportation are connected hand and glove. For the black hats, one is an enemy in their desire to use the other to undermine and help them dominate America. The first link below was provided by TheseTruths in a recent Daily thread. The second is more recent.

https://www.breitbart.com/immigration/2026/09/23/houston-schools-lose-21000-hispanic-students-state-saves-190m-tax-dollars

It is happening all over. I cannot help but smile about the local impact in east TN as folks discuss it in our communities. Nationwide the teachers and administrators as well as their associations and union leaders are concerned about the loss of jobs and power nationwide. The school system administrators are concerned about the loss of funding. The pandering politicians are concerned their campaign funding coffers are drying up along with the leftist votes. The publishers are feeling the pinch of people being over the woke Language Arts narratives as well as fake Science and History.

The fact is they have used our love of children to control We the People for far too long. In all of those red counties on the American map that dominate our landscape, there are two iconic institutions that attract the attention of the vast majority of residents; schools and churches. They are the glue that hold communities together. Both have been under horrific attacks for decades. It has come to the point that it is rare to see any large metro area with a sense of community anymore.

In the MAGA red areas, the two are very intertwined. Generally speaking, how one goes so goes the other. The commie tyrants know this and have established institutionalized education to undermine the God given natural rights ascribed to all of us in our founding documents. They use DEI, woke, support for sexual perversion, etc, to contaminate the minds of our children. If the laws are changed to end their “programs”, they continue them quietly or under other names. They have also infiltrated many denominations and churches through higher education and seminaries using the same tactics. This has led to some families and communities losing the cohesiveness of being united. People seem to have forgotten how to disagree without being disagreeable azzhats. We the People have come under siege when you add in the decline of industry and economic might, otherwise known as having good paying jobs, with the rise of Chyna and other totalitarian governed nations.

The good news is that is ending. MAGA and the Trump Administration are over target and figurative stealth bombers are obliterating the targets just like the real ones did in Iran.

🎯

Oh well. It sucks for them and is great for the rest of us.

Add in saying buh=bye to Indian H-1B Visa frauds and a kick in the azz to the chief offenders.

https://www.cnbc.com/2026/10/08/microsoft-adobe-green-card-labor-suspension.html

In contrast, with the increased deportations MAGA citizens are all happy to see no increases in taxes and bond issues to vote on for expanding school facilities due to overcrowding and ineffective teaching. They are happy to see American English spoken most everywhere with less crime, illegal drugs, vagrants, and bad drivers. They are enjoying the loss of packed drunken rat houses with foreign flags and bad hispanic music blaring. Our attention has now turned to rooting out Islamic BS with Sharia Law and blaring calls for prayer to their fake god. Some are more comfortable their kids can go out into their neighborhoods and play safely. More feel they can sit out on their front porches, visit with neighbors and enjoy the evenings without fear of being attacked or shot.

Soon there will be far fewer parents dealing with the effects of autism and other learning disabilities of their precious children as states revamp their jab regulations relating to public school enrollment. As it stands many parents have been opting out due to religious views.

Many are noticing state cumulative comprehensive English and Math scores rising again after years of decline. As they rebound the need for taxpayer paid assistants, tutors and teachers of summer school reduces. All of which makes families happy not to have their summer vacations and plans messed up by the unresponsive, dimwitted education industry hacks and their supportive politicians who make bank off the mess. Who knew that removing children of illegals who could not speak English well from public schools could accelerate a reduction in the dumbing down and distractions from classrooms to go with reducing expenses and calls for tax increases?

Well, actually, many of us in MAGA country.

Possibilities

If things keep progressing the next thing you know even more sanity may be introduced; such as public schools not starting until after Labor Day like Back In Our Day When American Education Was King and Led The World. That will include reducing all of the teacher conference and in-service days, long breaks and vacations, and many fake inclement weather and illness cancellations that create longer school calendar years. They might even use long existing technology that provides for students to do their studies at home during closures. Yes – use homeschooling style methods. Which also demonstrates the great benefit of the freedom of schedule, thought, and expression that homeschooling provides; something these egotistical wannabe tyrants fear. Yet, I realize that some families cannot do homeschooling for many valid reasons. However, they can receive some of the same benefits technology provides.

Maybe, just maybe, if PDT and patriots really do provide that $9 K stipend back to families for a parent/guardian to take care of kids at home as was done frequently Back In Our Day before overburdening citizens with taxes and regulations; we will see even more successful homeschoolers hit the mainstream and fewer kids stored in daycares before going to the widget lines of factory schools.

Children might even develop a sense of what a good family can do for their physical and mental health.

The fantastic success of public schools is why the families of students who use them simply cannot wait to pay taxes for the purpose while the rest of America who do not have kids in schools do not have to pay – right? Wait…you mean that is not how it all works? Of course we know that already, it is a rhetorical, sarcastic question.

🤨

As we are too well aware, all taxpayers fund public schools regardless of whether the citizens have children and youth using the services. How very charitable and socialistic of our governing authorities to make it so and sell the patriotism of it all; while also undermining same with commie bullshiz in practice. What was desired for youth to be educated in the 1700’s and integrated into society over the next couple of centuries is not what necessarily works today. Blame technology improvements and the rest of the world succeeding as we fail if you desire. However, it seems to me the technology ship left port long ago and our nation’s education system is still standing on the dock. If you truly want to know why the ropes are still tied, you only have to follow the money.

Many of the inept school administrations and boards even leave it up to teachers and parents to come out of pocket to pay for some of the school supplies used in the classrooms.

It seems public education has intentionally missed their own “EFFECTIVENESS” bus. When that happens somebody wins and somebody loses. We know who they are.

What If?

For the supporters of traditional school schedules, what happens if education is truly designed for increasing the successful learning of citizen students as its highest priority? That being not only for their sakes, but for the security and prosperity of America and its real allies? I am not suggesting legal aliens be removed from public education. I am suggesting that they not be considered or provided for in how or what public school students are taught and administered. They should assimilate and conform to us. We should not be doing what has been the current accommodation practices in many areas of the country who desire to radically change America.

What happens if the public education system becomes totally achievement based? For example, what happens if students are granted the option of accelerating the school year to be over at any time of year when they accomplish the learning goals set before them? What if they can choose to not take those nearly three weeks off for the Christmas and NY holidays? Instead, maybe do like working America does and take a holiday and then head back to work the following day. Would their working parents appreciate not having to make provisions for somebody to watch their kids while they are at their jobs? Would the students stay in rhythm in their studies and lessons not need to be reviewed repeatedly to get them back on track?

The massive waste in time in public schools becomes very clear when one homeschools. All it takes is teacher videos with web access provided to students to move things along at a more even pace that shortens the timelines.

What about canceling a formerly non-existent week long “fall break” after being in school for two months or less? You know, the periods when so many youth are bored out of their minds sitting at home playing video games and on their mobiles when the teenagers are not cruising the streets? They could fully enjoy three plus months off in their summers to do kid things with some older youth actually being able to work part time seasonal jobs for employers who need them in the peak summer season. Places where they would learn how to work and make money for future use in continuing education and tech schools. Would that make better use of time and help keep some of them out of trouble? Some may decide to not take a summer break at all and continue their studies, especially the more academically accomplished who could accelerate into colleges and universities.

Let’s cut to the chase. Do I mean to pattern public schooling like successful real world businesses who know that the customer’s desires are always the most important factor to consider? These are the businesses who continue to win while the losers do not or figure it out too late by thinking it is all about everything and everybody else. You know, like choosing to Bud Lite yourselves. Which coincidently, is exactly what the public school systems are doing to themselves.

The same common sense and business world principles can and should apply to government controlled entities such as public schools. They are to be developers of productive humans for American society. Notice I said “American” and not anything relating to the rest of the world. Our license to exist is our own. It was delivered via a revolution against tyranny through the Declaration of Independence and Constitution with acknowledgement of God’s providence. We march to the drum of what our Creator has provided and not to anybody else’s.

Instead, many of our public and some private schools are being used to produce livestock and slaves for plantation owners.

Personally I would go much more radical. I would eliminate the mandated 180 day school year laws entirely. With elimination truancy would immediately be less of a problem and administrative loads would lessen. To replace there would be mandatory student involvement in some form of public, private or home schooling. Advancement would be based on stated levels of achievement that would be required before moving on to the next level. Drop outs would not be authorized until age 18 except under extreme family emergencies. No more passing the failing students to the next grade. If the 17 year old student still cannot read, he or she stays at a first grade level in the subject until 18 years old. There is much incentive from fear of being left behind. Yup, some would need to be isolated into alternative schooling environments and situations just as they are today.

Better that than dumbing down entire student populations to accommodate those without necessary learning ability who should not be mainstreamed as well as the slackers.The latter is how it is done today. No child left behind is to keep the widgets moving down the line regardless of the quality of product. Instead, it all would become focused on achievement and the performance of each student as an individual. That is the proper definition of No Child Left Behind.

All of which could mean that levels of achievement by age groups, called “grade levels”, would no longer exist. What happens if this learning can happen over the course of the entire year in physical and virtual classrooms with options given to parents who pay for it through user fees instead of broad based taxes? What happens if tax credits, dividends and such are provided to help pay for it as applicable? What happens if students who do not have the capacity to learn at the higher levels fit for college and beyond are off ramped into other areas of interest and need within society where they can succeed instead of wasting time and running up student debts that take forever to repay? What happens if SI is used by each state to monitor progress and do administrative functions that are now done in make-work, fake jobs that cost tax payers money?

In summary, what happens when all of the invisible, intentionally erected walls to learning and progress are removed? What happens if every child has an opportunity to become the best he or she can be without cabal driven institutional interference? What happens if we really can have life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness available to all American citizens?

🤪

Once again, a guy can dream, can’t he?

Deportation

Among PDT’s many achievements, this interconnected deportation issue of exiting of illegals while securing the borders; is the one that matters most to many of us. For immigration to work for our benefit it has to be legal. Entrance through the front door with verification and documentation only. There must be a need. America’s heart has always been to provide room for true asylum needs. Many American citizens with multiple generations of ancestry here realize that America opened its doors to their ancestors as immigrants. They also know the immigration was needed by the colonies and nation. They knew it occurred legally, was documented, and entered through the front door. However, they also know it required assimilation.

Today, that would be as the families of white farmers and ranchers who were being genocided out of South Africa by savages. They are contributors to society with expertise that benefits America. Sorry, opening the doors to more lawn service, maids, nannies, fake cleaning crews, drug cartel distributors, human traffickers, truck drivers who cannot read signs, etc. from all over the world does not meet the criteria. Most are illegals with no documentation and unable to even speak our language. Many are leeches that siphon the life out of everything good about America and never assimilate. The only people they help are the wicked politicians and other criminals who use them.

So why in the world should we believe their children would be different and should be provided schools and services funded by taxpayers that are reserved for citizens? Yet, that is what has been happening in public school districts in all 50 states until #47 arrived on the scene. Massive tax dollars have been spent to accommodate the needs of these illegal aliens. The uniparty has been more than willing to do so as their existence promotes their agenda.

Club Senate – Again

Backers of institutionalized education have a friend in Arkansas, Sen. Tom Cotton.

Cotton is a card carrying member of the uniparty’s Arkansas political mafia. Arkansans can do far better than him, but they have not yet. He uses their central time zone as his excuse for obstructing what is best for the entire country that the vast majority of We the People support. In my opinion the real reason he is using the “rules, procedures and practices” of Club Senate are much more self and cabal serving. To start, let’s look at his bio,

https://encyclopediaofarkansas.net/entries/tom-cotton-8443

We thank him for his military service. However, one reason we do not trust him is because he was a rural Arkansas farm boy who went to Harvard for his undergraduate and later, his law degree. I know the town he came from and the people who live there. The path to the elite was provided. Arkansas power players frequently do that with young people of promise. It was the same with Bill Clinton. They mold their operatives at a young age. Their hand picks are usually from modest upbringings, intelligent, leaders, ambitious, etc. Cotton’s political career is filled with examples of opportunism in his bio and background. Sometimes it can be a study in contradictions. Other times it is pure DS. He will do whatever the uniparty establishment leadership cabal dictates, including the following from the above link.

“However, soon after the first of the year 2021, Cotton announced that he would not support Trump’s attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election. When the results came before Congress for the certification process on January 6, 2021, Cotton stood by his promise—even in the midst of the Capitol insurrection. At the same time, he opposed all efforts to establish an independent commission or select a committee to investigate the violent events of January 6.“

Why investigate when you already know it was a Fedsurrection, right Tom? The House was already on tap for that role. Time to move along.

Despite the appearance he wants to portray, he is not his own man. The globalist cabal puppet masters are the ones who developed the institutionalized education system we see that is run in all fifty states that is tanking in world rankings for academic achievement. They are receiving the desired results they seek. They are also some of the same people objecting to SI advancement because they know it has the ability to make their power and business model burnt toast.

What do you think Elon could do with public education?

😂

PDT pulling the plug on DOE operational controls to make the department primarily just a funder to states upset their game. If it follows that public education becomes primarily achievement based rather than the current rigidly scheduled assembly line, schools will not need to be open for all students at set times and days. If parents in part of the country do not want little Johnny standing out at the bus stop alone in the dark, he would not have to, although it sure seems interesting that many of us gray hairs remember doing so without incident back in our days. If he is still going to school and is not a car rider, the bus can come by an hour later on a second run. He could get on his i-Pad or computer and video conference the classes until dark mornings become lighter. Flexibility in the manner described previously provides many options. Instead of rigid, they could try flexible that keeps the student as top priority.

The corrupted box of the cabal is not desired and no longer needed by anybody.

Conclusion

Continue getting the illegals outta here! So many good things trundle into everyday life as the cabal’s power erodes and the foreign criminals are exited to never return. Public education is one of those things. The systemic dumbing down of students in classrooms reduces. The voter rolls recede to actual citizen levels. This is a win-win for citizens and the nation as a whole.

Which leads to another Monday Morning Quarterbacking story down the road about why the Democrat Party must be exterminated from the planet. We have become so accepting that there must always be black hats to oppose white hats. That is a false premise of our existence. It is OK for the United States of America to actually be united. It is OK for there to be NO political parties at all. There will still be plenty of points, courter points, disagreements and such to keep things moving and interesting.

Until next time, be blessed, PRAY, VOTE, trust the plan, and most of all trust God.

Chiefio delivers…

But first. What the hell is Polymath Truth?

Brave.

The polymath truth is the concept that genius and exceptional achievement are not innate traits reserved for a select few, but are instead driven by intense curiosity and the ability to connect disparate ideas. Rather than being defined by deep expertise in a single narrow field, a polymath is characterized by their refusal to silo knowledge, allowing them to recognize patterns across boundaries and synthesize insights from multiple domains.

Key aspects of this perspective include:

  • Curiosity over Credentialism: True polymathy is about what you chase and how you see connections, rather than simply accumulating facts or awards.
  • Pattern Recognition: The core superpower of a polymath is seeing how different fields echo each other, modeling systems, and translating complexity into clarity.
  • Creative Synthesis: Polymaths create by letting inputs from diverse areas collide, resulting in novel solutions and insights that specialists might miss.
  • Action-Oriented: It is not just about knowing many things, but about applying that broad knowledge to solve specific problems and generate innovation.

Back to Chiefio.

Globalist GroupThink & “Consensus” vs Polymath Truth

Globalism requires a “shared vision” or a kind of Group-Think. Polymaths do not.

I don’t find this presenter particularly compelling (she plays with her hair a lot, and hesitates at the limits of her training), but does cite published literature on the topic and seems to have understanding of it). Her basic exposition is that Polymaths (people with skill and understanding in multiple domains of knowledge) are resistant to Group-Think while many (most?) others are not.

I think I have seen that in real life (rather too often…)

It also explains some of my social interactions as I am a polymath, don’t do group-think, and have often got “the hairy eyeball” from a group of agreed people when I point to something that shows them wrong. (Covid, The Jab, Global “Warming” and a long list at work over the decades). What I see as “Keeping a Tidy Mind” where new assertions must integrate with the proven body of knowledge spanning multiple domains – such as Geologic History which “Global Warming” ignores… they see as an attack on The Consensus.

8:51

Where this leads me to ponder

There are a few ponderings that come from this.

1) To what extent is Globalism a case of Group-Think?

2) Have the sociopaths at the very top learned to harness Group-Think to promote Globalism?

3) Is that why the “Leaders In Charge” seem more like the “Idiots In Charge” since they were selected by the sociopaths for their submission to the Group-Think Narrative being pushed from the top? (Think Klaus Schwab to the WEF hoard of followers / “leaders” to be…)

4) Is this why so many of the Best & Brightest who call out Bull Shit in The Narrative get attacked and smeared by said apparatus? The Sociopaths at the top pushing to “name & shame” (or Dox & Destroy…) them via using their “Idiots in Charge” (and their “useful idiot follower hoards – Antiffa, BLM, etc.) for the attacks. Those in a Group-Think Consensus Group absolutely hate anyone in the out-group showing they are wrong. They can’t accept being shown stupidly wrong.

5) Is this also why the push for Boss Babes? Women are MUCH more interested in “consensus” and “agreement”, so would naturally push for expulsion of the Polymaths and adoption of the Group-Think Narrative. Plus, a Female Sociopath is far more sinister (vicious?) in their attacks and quite indirect in their revenge. So put Ursala at the top as the sociopath manipulator, then Kaja Kallas falls in line easily without thinking.

I asked Brave Browser “Women leaders of the EU” and the A.I. answered:


Four women currently hold the five most powerful positions in the European Union,
leading a significant shift toward gender parity in the bloc’s top institutions.

The current female leaders are:

Ursula von der Leyen: President of the European Commission (since 2019, re-elected 2024).

Roberta Metsola: President of the European Parliament (second term secured in 2024).

Christine Lagarde: President of the European Central Bank (since 2019).

Kaja Kallas: High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy (appointed 2024, succeeding Josep Borrell).

The only male in this top tier is Antonio Costa, the President of the European Council. Von der Leyen has been named the world’s most powerful woman by Forbes four consecutive years (2022–2025) and has actively pushed for gender parity in her Commission team, appointing women to six of the eight top vice-presidency roles in her second term.

AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts.

I note in passing that “gender parity” in Ursela’s POV means ONE man in five top rolls and TWO men out of 8 at the next tier. So 5:1 and 3:1 women over men. Yeah, that’s “parity” all right… /snark;

Is the whole “meritocracy bad” and DIE Diversity Inclusion Equity based on race and gender due to this? The desire to put more “Group-Think” prone folks in authority and exclude the Polymath who disrupts the Group-Think and derails the Narrative Railroad?

I find it an interesting frame for looking at these questions, even if I can’t provide any definitive answers.

BUT it does seem to fit all the known facts. And, putting on my Sociopath Emulator Hat: it sure looks to me like, were I a socipath at the top, I’d NOT want a widely knowledgeable polymath who would fight me on The Narrative (of deception?) I was pushing, and I would want a lot of emos under me who would just follow my lead and conform to group pressure…

https://study.com/learn/lesson/emo-subculture-traits.html

What is an emo person like?
An emo person tends to be quiet, introspective or shy, and can be creative. They spend time alone or with people who share their interests listening to music or making emo-influenced art. They have deep emotions but aren’t always only angry or sad.

One also wonders if the Gay Guy stereotype comes into play here too. More emotional, less likely to be a polymath. More into music, art, clothes and other “girly stuff”… just a speculation / question. It would be amusing to look into group-think vs polymath tendency by social group with gender & “orientation” as markers.

In Conclusion

So there you have it. Insight of the day, but consisting more of questions than answers.

But it sure points toward more conformance to “all the known facts” than “doesn’t fit”…

WHY the hell is gas double OR more, than it was one year ago, in the USA?

  • VDH gives part of the answer. But neglects to speak of Lloyd’s, London, Chuckles…

OFF The Wall?

  • What IF IRGC is not attacking tankers in the Strait of Hormuz?
  • What if Strait of Hormuz tanker attacks are rooted in one or more of: Lloyd’s, London, Chuckles, EU, NATO…WEF Globalists.

Will Trump bring back incandescent bulbs. (I wish.)

Prion & Huntington’s Treatment, & LEDs Getting Worse

Two Stories here, both Medical. In 2028 LED Bulbs get worse, & we might fix Huntington’s & Prion Diseases

I’ll start with the not so good so we can end on a good note.

LED Bulbs to get worse for health in 2028

Current pending regulations will make LED Bulbs even more narrow spectrum (and in a very bad way), so even the better color spectrum bulbs with both aesthetic and health benefits will be banned in the USA.

This will not bother me much, since I have a lifetime supply of IC and CFL bulbs; but I might stock up on a few of the better LEDs and encourage LED using friends to do so.

14:12

For those who have not got an inventory of Incandescent bulbs: You can make work-arounds.

There are Y adapters to turn one socket into 2, then put 40 W “appliance bulbs” in it for an 80 W IC lamp. I also bought some adapters with 3 to 1 sockets and then 3 x 25 W bulbs gives you a 75 W, while 3 x 40 gives 120 W of light.

I also have 2 “three way” floor lamps and, for now, you can still find IC 3 way bulbs ( I bought a bunch of 50 / 100 / 150 from Amazon recently). Then, running it on the low setting, when that burns out, you still have a bulb of the higher wattage that works in a regular socket (since the power comes from the center pin for that filament). I use the 50W as “all day long” ambient light in my office and about once a year get a bulb with only the high power 100W setting left, and move it to the Den Lamp on a dimmer. Run at about 90% of power, they last for several years.

Finally, “Rough Service” bulbs are not “general service” so you can still get “rough service” IC bulibs. I also have some 200 W “High Power” bulbs, that, turn on a dimmer will last nearly forever (though with low efficiency, but with LOTS of healthful IR light 😉

So with some work it is still possible to bypass the lousy LED light.

Booting islamis MUST be a Major 2028 Theme.

  • Zero immigration.
  • No mosques.
  • No sharia.
  • America wide. NO dual citizenship in federal offices. Elected, appointed, or otherwise. NONE.

France Burning, UK Rotting, Left & Muslim Riots

France Imported the 3rd World, now it burns. UK is importing it too, so far just rot

I do not know who “at the top” made the decision to import a load of leftists, Muslims, and the 3rd World and thought that would be a good thing for Democratic Christian Republics in modernity; but they were wrong. Very very wrong.

So now a bunch of “students” by the thousands in France are burning down their schools with the excuse that they are not good enough… though how a pile of ashes will provide a better education is unclear… The UK continues to force invading “migrants” onto an existing population that is already struggling. I doubt anyone at the decision making point in this migrant invasion has actually read the Koran or knows what it says is mandatory (hint: it is NOT what a Muslim will tell you thanks to Taqiyya – the Koranic permission to lie to the Infidel about Islam until you have converted them and their country (which is also commanded)).

There are fundamental incompatibilities between Islam and Christianity (including that the Koran says to try to convert Christians and only kill them after you give it a good attempt and they won’t pay you a special tax to stay alive… Then there’s the “kill the Jews where you find them” which sure sounds like a “hate crime” to me… and the stoning of anyone gay unless you can toss them off a high building… and more. And yes, I have read the Koran and it does say it is OK to enslave the infidel).

So John Cleese (Monty Python / Faulty Towers comedian) pointed out some of these inherent incompatibilities and the result is that the police (the Thought Police department of the Government Security apparatus) has put this 86 year old man on a potential terrorist list of some kind for speaking a truth that made someone (muslim) uncomfortable. Britain is toast. Cold and soggy toast at that.

Oddly, Better Bachelor who usually covers the Feminist Gender War On Men, has the news about it:

33:40

Here’s the link to the same story on Rumble for when YouTube takes down the original to comply with some European dictate or other:

IMHO, this will continue getting worse until one of two things happen:

1) Most likely is the collapse of European Christian Democratic Republics as Europe becomes Yet Another Islamic Mess like the rest of the Muslim World.

2) Least Likely is that the Native Europeans do what they did in the 1200-1500 A.D. era and once again drive out the invading ideology.

BOTH of them will involve a LOT of death and bloodshed. At present, with demographic collapse among the existing populations of Europe (largely due to the feminist ideology of “career no kids” and blame men), in another generation there will be a majority Muslims in Europe and they will just vote in an Islamic State. Then it will be “conversion by the sword” for any minority population of Europeans. That’s what the Koran mandates.

What would it take for a revival of a Christian Europe? Good luck with that… I don’t know what it would take, and I don’t see anyone making it happen. I do see a LOT of “import fighting age 3rd world Muslim Men”, and the fantasy that this is somehow going to end well.

Islam is NOT just some kind of “Christianity Lite”, and do not buy the lie that it is. Read your history. Read the Koran. THINK for yourself. Speak truth to power (and everyone else too…)

Me? Happily retired and NOT going to ever visit Europe again. Not the UK. Not the EU. Not Switzerland or the Nordic countries. Maybe Latin America selectively… Oh, and I will continue to advocate for stopping the flood of invaders to the USA and removal of the ones already here. It would be nice to save Canada from the European Disease, but as long as Carney and his ilk are in charge, closing the northern border is probably the best we can do. Might be nice to connect Alaska with the lower 48 via the Western Provinces becoming States (should they wish it), but not interested in Ontario / Toronto / Montreal…

I also hope that Australia can reverse some of their Cranial Rectal Inversion… but not seen any evidence there either.

IF anyone has sussed out the origin point for the idiocy of our Idiots In Charge in the West, I’d love to know about it. Is it all just the WEF? Or is something behind those curtains too? Cultural Marxism and Islam seem like strange bedfellows, and why Feminist Women are all for it is a mystery too (as being put in a tent without education and part of a harem seems counter to their POV)… I have trouble believing that our “Leaders” are really so stupid as to think they can benefit from the Chaos that they are causing. They ought to look at the results of prior French Revolutions and the resulting French Haircuts… So it all remains a mystery to me. But a cure can start without knowing where the root cause is located… for now.

Another take on plagues. Well, the plague in Californicate.

Plague Panic! – not so much…

There’s a lot of Russian Lab Plague Panic! stories going on.

Why do I not care? Because I lived 60+ years with Plague in California.

I asked Brave A.I. for a summary of “Plague endemic in California” and it said:

Showing results for California, US

Plague is endemic in many parts of California, specifically in rural and undeveloped foothill and mountainous areas, as well as some coastal regions. The disease is naturally present in wild rodent populations, primarily ground squirrels, chipmunks, and woodrats, which serve as the main reservoir for the Yersinia pestis bacteria.

The South Lake Tahoe area in El Dorado County is a known hotspot, having recorded a human case in 2025 and evidence of plague in rodents since 2021. Other high-risk areas include the Angeles National Forest and San Gabriel Mountains in Los Angeles County, as well as higher elevations in Tulare County. Plague is not found in the Central Valley or the southeastern desert regions, and human cases in urban areas have not been reported in nearly 100 years.

Transmission to humans typically occurs through the bite of infected fleas from wild rodents or by handling infected animals. Pet cats are particularly susceptible and can carry infected fleas into homes or transmit the disease via respiratory secretions if they contract pneumonic plague. The average number of human cases in the United States is about seven per year, with most occurring in western states, and these cases are effectively treated with antibiotics if diagnosed early.

AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts.

Bolding done by me.

BTW, it isn’t just California.

From: https://www.cdc.gov/plague/maps-statistics/index.html

So ask me again how worried I am about ONE case of plague in a guy in Russia?

It is one big Ho Hum.

Many more cases outside of Russia:

3, 2, 1…Queue lawsuits.

3, 2, 1…Software stock(s) selloff?

Don’t “Learn To Code” – Do an A.I. Clone…

Well this is going to be huge…

A small group used A.I. to write an open source clone of Photoshop in Rust in a few weeks. The whole thing.

Software companies just took a major hit to their business model. Even if nobody makes an A.I. Windows Clone, or Micro$oft manages to sue folks to prevent it: Any group could now make a ‘work alike” that was better than their crap, and a LOT more efficient, that required minimal changes to work flow and user skills, and make it free or minimally priced.

Going to Programming Classes and “learning to code” is no longer a viable career path. Learning to prompt an A.I. is.

Expect a flood of cheap software that works FINE from places like India, China, and frankly, just about anywhere. Were I, say, the Chief Tech Officer of the Government of Some 3rd World Country: I’d NOT be cutting a check for ANY Western Software. I’d either use the existing Open Source stuff, OR if some particular need existed and no open source product existed – I’d tell my computer department staff to whip up a clone using A.I. tools.

IMHO, there will be a huge reduction in valuations of Software Companies… the survivors will make it on “consultants” and “maintenance” fees. Not a software license fee.

10:40

Time to change from “learn to code” to “learn to prompt A.I.”

It looks (from what they said) like even the Q.A. & Validation was done with A.I. assist.

OK so I was bouncing around YT and saw below video. Being a geezer, thought, what the hell…

  • Not in the market for a new vehicle until, I hope 2028.

15:13

Then I wondered, would geezer car insurance rates go down. So I asked Grok.

  • Yea, grok would have no conflict of interest here.

Grok

71yo driver. No accidents OR moving violations since 1975. Texarkana, TX. Typical insurance rates for a Tesla Y FSD?

Typical full-coverage rates for a Tesla Model Y in Texarkana, TX, for a 71-year-old with an exceptionally clean record (no accidents or moving violations since 1975) are roughly $180–$320 per month ($2,200–$3,800 per year), depending on exact coverage, deductibles, mileage, credit, and insurer. Liability-only is substantially lower. These are estimates based on 2025–2026 published averages and comparisons; actual quotes vary and require personalized shopping.

Key Benchmarks

  • Texas Model Y averages (full coverage, typical middle-aged clean-record driver, 100/300/100 limits + $500 deductibles): Around $4,169 per year / ~$347 per month. Liability-only (higher limits) averages closer to $1,495 per year. insurance.com
  • National Model Y full-coverage averages: Often $3,000–$4,600 per year (~$250–$380/month) for similar profiles, with some sources lower for safer/older drivers. insurance.com
  • Age effects: Rates for seniors in Texas rise modestly after ~65–70. A typical 70-year-old pays about 8% more than a 65-year-old for full coverage on an average vehicle (e.g., statewide senior full-coverage averages near $2,800–$3,000/year). Tesla premiums run higher due to vehicle value, battery/repair costs, and parts. Clean multi-decade records and mature-driver discounts help offset this. carinsurance.com
  • Texarkana specifically: Lower than major Texas metros (DFW/Houston averages for Model Y clean-record full coverage often $220–$400/month). Overall city auto averages for full coverage are frequently in the $170–$180/month range for typical cars—noticeably below the Texas statewide average—due to lower urban density/claim frequency. insurify.com

Tesla Insurance Advantage (Available in Texas)Tesla Insurance prices primarily on the vehicle’s Safety Score (and mileage/garaging) rather than age or credit score, which can benefit a very safe senior driver. It also offers an FSD (Supervised) usage benefit/discount in Texas (up to ~10% on eligible coverages for ≥50% of miles with FSD engaged; higher usage can produce larger effective savings in examples).

Example order-page estimates (Austin-area Model Y context, not Texarkana-specific): ~$205/month without heavy FSD use vs. ~$148/month with high FSD usage. Real rates depend on your Safety Score, ZIP, and coverage. High scores can produce competitive or lower-than-traditional rates.

Factors That Help or Hurt Your Rate

  • Helpful: 50+ years clean record, potential low annual mileage, mature/defensive driving course (common 5–10% discount for 55+ in Texas), multi-policy bundling, higher deductibles, Tesla’s advanced safety features, and strong Safety Score/FSD usage with Tesla Insurance.
  • Higher cost drivers: Newer/higher-trim Model Y, low deductibles, high mileage, urban ZIP nuances, or comprehensive coverage in hail-prone areas.
  • Company variation is large: In Texas Model Y data, full-coverage quotes have ranged widely (e.g., State Farm or Incline often lower; others substantially higher). USAA can be competitive if eligible. insurance.com

Practical AdviceShop quotes from Tesla Insurance, State Farm, GEICO, Progressive, Nationwide, local/independent agents, and others (or comparison sites). Provide your exact ZIP, model year/trim, desired limits/deductibles, annual mileage, and any other vehicles/homeowners policy. Complete a Texas-approved mature driver course if you haven’t recently. Rates are not guaranteed and change with market conditions, claims experience, and underwriting.These figures assume standard full coverage on a typical recent Model Y; liability-only or higher/lower limits will differ materially. Get multiple personalized quotes for the most accurate picture.

Me. Interesting it appears some insurance company rates go down with increased FSD engaged. Minor plug for Tesla insurance. 🙂

Maintenance appears to be minimal, as compared to ICE.

EVs still have a ways to go.

Are EV fires still an issue OR was that mainly non-Tesla EV fires for the most part. Based on Grok search, does not appear to be a significant issue. I spose, keep the Tesla out of water and hope it doesn’t catch on fire for any reason.

Cold weather issues. Charge time. Charge limits. Increase charge drain. Long distance travel on holidays likely long wait times to charge EVs.

Then I looked at Tesla weight Vs my Ram and Grand Cherokee L. Ram 25% heavier. Grand Cherokee L about the same. So much for the EVs are too heavy hype.

Tire prices comparable to what I buy these days. Maintenance appears to be much less than ICE.

Charging station availability on demand, likely my biggest concern. 2028 charging station availability may not be an issue.

So much for the Tesla rabbit hole deep dive of sorts.

This looks interesting.

Elon Musk Makes A Move On The Banks

When Elon Musk took over Twitter, fired four out of five employees, and rebranded it X (just because he thought it sounded cool), the talking heads predicted doom for the company. The opposite happened. It is now one of the most popular sources of news in the world, and a major delivery system for what social media is supposed to be.

He always had more in mind. He explained at the outset that he wanted to turn X into the “everything app.” I winced when I heard those words. As someone who worked in web development for years, I learned to regard every promise of a “one-stop shop” to be foolish. It never happens. Best to pick one thing you do well and stick with it.

To my own amazement, X is indeed taking steps toward being the Everything App. Not yet, of course, but the advent of his X Money platform is major and serious. It is being rolled out gradually to premium members. Under the new content-creators payout program, people are paid within the app and invited to use the service for transferring money.

Described thusly, it would seem to be another version of Zelle or Venmo and therefore not that much to notice, much less celebrate. But when you look at the details of what X Money is doing, another reality emerges. It would appear that this app is making a move on the banks themselves.

The evidence is on the app now. It offers a way to link your paycheck to X Money to enjoy a quicker payout than if your paycheck flows to your bank account. Speed is one thing, and a good thing, but why else would you do this?

The key comes in the details which have not been advertised (Musk doesn’t like old-style marketing). These are not regular dormant cash accounts like you get in a regular checking account. They pay a return. Not just any return. The return is higher than you would otherwise get in a normal money market.

For now the Annual Percent Yield (APY) is an eye-popping 6 percent as an initial customer-acquisition rate.

Not only that, the X Money card that comes digitally with the service (and physically on the ask) offers fully 3 percent cash back.

A high rate plus instant peer-to-peer transmission, a metal Visa card with 3 percent cash back, and early direct deposit is meant to pull balances and daily activity onto the platform.

What you notice from these terms is that this goes way beyond a mere money-transmission service. What’s being provided here, with quick and easy signups, is a highly lucrative vehicle for serious investment. Put your cash in and have it earn 6 percent. That beats inflation. With 3 percent cash back, you are way ahead of the game. That is reason enough to switch.

As a user I immediately found myself in a bind. Initially I thought I would enjoy spending my X Money on groceries and movie tickets or something along those lines. But with this level of earning power, I will lose money if I do that. I would be forgoing the return from the money held. Better to use the cash in my bank or my credit card that also pays 3 percent cash back.

The calculation here favors keeping the money in X Money, not spending it. Indeed, the calculator favors moving cash from banks into X Money and earning the return. To be sure, that 6 percent could change in a year or two or three. It would be up to how the app is managed.

Meanwhile, do you understand what this means? It means an actual reward for … saving money! Imagine that. Cash that earns a return on an app that allows peer-to-peer transfer at zero cost. This is disruptive innovation of the sort we’ve come to expect from this man and his companies.

Elon has designated the X Money app for now to be a loss leader in direct revenue but a huge investment in becoming what he likely thinks it can be in the long run: an actual option to the banks.

There might even be more afoot here. The banking rails themselves are provided by Cross River Bank. Founded in 2008, the bank carved out a special niche in working with new digital companies that focus on in-app service provision and edgier products like cryptocurrency. It is FDIC-insured but eschews traditional banking in favor of innovation. Even with its smaller capitalization, it is an ideal partner for a disruptive technology like X Money.

Recall too that Elon Musk was one of the founders of PayPal. It was started with a high hope of developing a new form of money transmission and even a new form of money. It eventually found itself regulated out of that vision to become what it is today, which is a highly valued means of payment for the digital age.

X Money seems to learn from mistakes made in those days to build out fully banking services from the very foundation. With the inclusion of crypto as part of the banking rails, we can easily imagine a future in which X Money integrates with a service like Coinbase to move money from dollars to crypto and back again.

One thing that is notable to me is the effortlessness of the signups and verifications. The developers have learned that customers recoil at too many screens, too much language, too many aggressive demands for passwords and accounts. They are using the latest technology to make signups and management extremely easy and clean.

That said, X Money does of course comply with all the arduous federal regulations concerning Know Your Customer laws and tax-reporting requirements. This is by no means an app that places a premium on your privacy. Even to make it work requires government IDs and 3D facial scans from our phone. I despise all of that while also understanding that this is the price any financial entrepreneur pays to make anything innovative these days. X Money is compliant across the board, which, from my point of view, is unavoidably regrettable.

It’s entirely possible that Elon has a big vision for this platform that he has not yet shared. Indeed, I’m struck by how much of the system that he has built so far has not been advertised at all. It’s extremely interesting how the rollout is going. The app presents direct information to the customer screen by screen, the pitch, the conditions, the advantages. Normal advertising speaks to the masses; Elon’s way is to speak to the individual user. It’s very different.

We can imagine two polar opposite futures with this new service.

Optimistically, it becomes the innovator of a new form of money and monetary services that eventually replaces paper money and even the dollar.

Remember that the app is global. What if the assets of X and other companies emerge as the asset baking of a new form of currency?

Pessimistically, X Money becomes just another new layer of the emergent financial control grid that spies on us and even worse: the integration of money and social media reminds one of China’s Social Credit System. This future sometimes feels baked into the technologies we use and the deep relationship of tech companies and the government.

Which will it be? We do not know. But from what I can see, there is a strong rationale for expecting this platform to be a major player and going concern in the future world of money and finance.

Living in America: Monday Morning Quaterbacking – Pete & DS Operatives

Today’s subject is more frequently asserted conspiracy theory that turns out to not be conspiracy theory. The following is my dot connecting and should be viewed as such. So the rename of my threads has become Monday Morning Quarterbacking to honor the day they will occasionally occur, the football related connection that all fans have, as well as our human tendency to look back in the rear view mirror of life and see reality.

As many have observed, Pete Hegseth attacks have been on the upswing as of late. It is also clear our military is achieving many goals at PDT’s direction. So I could stop the story here and the conclusion as to the reasoning for the attacks would be easy to determine.

However, in the bigger picture it is also clear that some war pig industries as well as aligned nations housing our bases are losing income streams and influence in the process of our military upgrading tech, weaponry, strategic asset placement, methods of engagement, and so on. For example deemphasizing Germany and moving to the proposed Fort Trump in Poland with a nation that is all in with America would cause great consternation in globalist as well as some war pig supporting industries.

https://unn.ua/en/news/nawrocki-expects-a-permanent-us-military-base-to-be-established-in-poland-which-will-be-named-fort-trump

Then there is Pete’s recent retooling of the requirements for generals and admirals,

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/news/hegseth-announces-new-pentagon-battlefield-test-for-generals/ar-AA2cLJgy

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/pentagon-overhauls-officer-promotion-process/ar-AA2cLDwW

He is stirring the hornet’s nest. It appears that testing for the ability to conduct war fighting instead of buying into the lip services of desk jockeys is a requirement with Pete. Imagine that. All of which has already been instituted into the rank and file. This bottom up approach is inspiring to all patriots.

As a result the media and internal DS military operatives with the help of the uniparty have been called into action in an attempt to upset and redirect the plans; which leads to treasonous and seditious media involvement, of course.

As I posted recently, I believe it is obvious that Pete Hegseth knows all too well that Jennifer Griffin is a DS cabal plant for the Murdoch’s and fellow Chyna connected globalists. They worked at Fox News together at one point. His counterattack on her in front of peers during the Iran conflict presser in the early days, which embarrassed the gal to no end on national TV, spoke volumes to me about how he knows the game has been played.

https://thehill.com/homenews/media/5370774-hegseth-briefing-jennifer-griffin-fox

Ever since then she has narrowed her focus and become quite one sided and shrill in her reporting about Pete and the military on Fox at times. My observations are that she played the game of getting back into sync with Pete and the military until recently activated to do the dirty by the Murdoch’s. It will not work. Pete, PDT, and We the People are way too far ahead of their treachery to fall for it.

For what it is worth, this is a perfect example as to why I continue to watch the globalist presented news of the traditional networks (fake news) on a rotating basis. I know they are all cabal and clown controlled. I want to know the narratives they are presenting to the many sheeple Americans so I can counter their garbage and plant seeds of truth around me. My influence is small, but seeds of truth being planted have a tendency to grow abundant fruit when more of us are planting them. Which is a Biblical principle as many on here know.

Media

When you run in the same circles with DS globalist operatives in any setting, you tend to blow off the signs that are right in front of you because you think you know the person behind the smiling face that you run into when you are out and about. They act friendly and helpful – until they don’t. Glad to see Lara finally figure one of them out.

Jennifer Griffin has long appeared to me to be a tool of the deep state & numerous sources over the years have come to me about this. But I always thought it was a real mark of her character that she was a source for a WaPo hit piece on me when I was at 60 Minutes & they came after me for my Benghazi reporting. Right before the hit piece came out, it was Halloween & I was with my young children “trick or treating” in the neighborhoods around our DC home. I ran into Jennifer that night & we spoke – the one person I saw who knew me & would have immediate access to reporters. Amazingly, the next day the article quoted an anonymous source as describing me dressed like a stripper when out with my kids for Halloween. Actually My four-year-old daughter had asked me to be the Pink Power Ranger because my children loved that show so that’s what I was – for them. And I was wearing some standard Power Ranger pink & white one piece from Walmart. It was such a personal attack that had literally nothing to do with my work. So small.

Then when I was reporting at Fox News on the disastrous Afghan betrayal/withdrawal, she complained about me to the “front office” & I was notified by my agent.

Many of us know the highs and lows of Lara Logan’s career along the way. However, the same is true for all of us in some regard. What is good is that she has a large following of those who believe her or are even her quiet enemy. Her words have now been widely read about operatives like Ms. Snake Griffin.

Within the comments (always read some of the comments) of the X post you will find one with Griffin’s husband’s photo in it. You will learn that he has NY Slimes, AP, and currently NPR among other clown controlled fake news organizations in his bio. Below is his bio link at NPR.

https://www.npr.org/people/348766539/greg-myre

From the above:

“Myre is a scholar at the Middle East Institute in Washington and has appeared as an analyst on CNN, PBS, BBC, C-SPAN, Fox, Al Jazeera and other networks. He’s a graduate of Yale University, where he played football and basketball.”

For those who have access, spend some time here:

Seems hubby has been spending quality time in Ukraine of late. 😂 my azz off with his Al Jazeera analyst connection. Note that he is a graduate of … Yale. Surprised?

Note that Daniel Driscoll is also a graduate of Yale Law School – same as JD. JD and he knew each other well while in law school. They both enrolled at Yale on the GI Bill after serving in Iraq. Note also that Driscoll came through another clown university – University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill – the home of Dr. Ralph Baric and his Coronavirus bioweapons research. Note that like JD, Driscoll also went into investment banking and management of venture capital at BlackArch and Flex Capital. See his Army bio below:

https://www.army.mil/e2/downloads/rv7/leaders/bio/driscoll_bio.pdf

How does it make you feel when you realize 16 Dem Senators voted to confirm Daniel Driscoll to U. S. Army Secretary in 2025? Did you go, “Aha!” or get a bit queasy. It tells me he was a uniparty pick for the role and PDT went along with JD’s friend having the job. Until he didn’t.

Was Driscoll playing JD in hopes of booting Pete and taking the job? If he was, PDT would already know what team he played on, which means JD would also have been made aware. The resignation coming when it did appears to be another hit job attempt to portray things in upheaval within the military before the midterms.

Or…was he a plant within the cabal part of the military by the white hats? Did he fulfill his mission and is now moving on to other things?

Presently I opt for the former, but also realize that the way things appear are not the tale of the tape at times. That leaves this Monday Morning Quarterback with the only thing left to do from here, and that is to follow where Daniel Driscoll goes after he works out his notice. Does he go back into the M&A or other venture capital functions? Or, does he use his “drone” expertise and expanded industrial military complex connections to his personal and team’s advantage? Who he works and aligns with going forward will be a big tell. Now that he has the resignation from the Trump administration due to “policy differences” on his resume while still remaining a friend of Vance; it sure makes him more marketable to the cabal going forward without severing ties to our likely POTUS after the 2028 election.

The way we will know is from observation of future activities and events. I bet there will be a bingo on the card with him entering at a high level into the war pig industry. Whether that is for the white or black hats is the question to be resolved. Regardless of the team, there will be interconnections that can be traced and mapped going forward.

The neocons will keep breeding their own operatives. However, what we really learn from this story of three operatives of the DS globalist cabal – Griffin, Myre, Driscoll – is that the apparent object of their contempt and skullduggery is a true patriot and a person we should value very highly. Who loves and respects Pete? The right people, including us.

When you have the time, enjoy the digging for the associations and interconnections of the players. Enlist the AI that is developing that you trust to assist. Follow where they go next and know that the white hats are mapping all of it as well. It is just a modern form of war gaming.

All of that is also why our VP (“friend of Driscoll”) needs to stay somewhat connected to the other team. Same as Marco when he was in the uniparty enemy camp; a man who may be the second most powerful leader in the world today. Who on here would have ever thought that a few years ago? It is the same as with Scott Bessent when he was in the pit with the Soros/Rothschild beast as well as the same with Pete when he was getting screwed within the Bush/Soetoro military. They are building their own network of patriots. PDT himself was deep into the uniparty for a time. That’s how you obtain intel for future endeavors and learn who the secret operatives are. Today, all of the folks above have proven to be white hat patriots in support of We the People and the views of our founding documents.

When and how they personally became white hats is not for us to necessarily know or even in some cases, to judge. Somebody and/or something helped them to the proper conclusion. There is no applicable purity test required for clandestine dirty work. Much of this obviously took military intelligence involvement going back decades. For example, how else can you explain the systematic worldwide economic strangulation you see Bessent executing with Iran? The world saw how quickly Venezuela came to heal when we put an end to their criminal operations by cutting the head off the snake. Many nations operating in the fringe have become much less combative as a result of what they observed and felt. Ask Denmark and Mexico. More will be added over the coming days.

USAID funded much of the cabal’s operations in the Caribbean basin, Central and South America. With that funding gone we now see new leaders elected in Latin America that all align with the Trump Administration, which aligns with We the People. By extension we can surmise that the previous MO for CIA operations in the region are being neutered. Which leads the remaining elements of the cabal’s politician operatives to reinvent themselves as Democratic Socialists with Muslim Brotherhood Islamic ties in a last gasp attempt to stay relevant and in the money.

It’s not in our pay grade to know the details. However, we can be in the know of general direction and steps we can take through observation and even our own mapping of current and future events.

The patriots have been and will continue to spring the traps at the appropriate times.

Q said to enjoy the show. Q said we have everything we need. Q said to follow the wives, which also means to follow the husbands. And everybody should know by now to always follow the money.

Wonder why Leon Black refused a House subpoena to appear and is now suing same? Oopsie, did they hit a nerve within the DS Epstein beast? Seems both GOP and Dems now want that guy in the hot seat and held in contempt. Why both sides?

🤨

And I am off to the next conspiracy theory, which will probably lead to more Monday Morning Quarterbacking.

Stay safe, be blessed, VOTE, PRAY, and may God bless America

What the hell does Elon naming a car Tesla, have in common with Nikola Tesla?

  • Was naming Tesla homage to the brilliance of Nikola Tesla?

Data Centers. Gotta Have Them, MeThinks.

Locals Were There First. Assimilate with locals for the Win-Win. Cost AND availability of water AND power should NOT increase over whatever locals currently pay.

Ideally locals utility cost will be reduced. Modern technology ought to be able to deliver lower costs. Data centers are already going to improve local utility infrastructure.

  • Win-Win for everyone.

WAIT A Second. STOP The presses!

Below article addresses none of the concerns mentioned above. Though, those concerns Must AND I believe will be addressed to fairly meet local concerns, needs.

Energy reality forces tech to ditch climate virtue-signaling

If we want the data centers to run, we have to ditch the global warming propaganda.

In Pecos County, Texas, crews are clearing scrubland for a power plant that will burn natural gas and answer to no one but Amazon.  With 35 turbines and a generating capacity of more than 7 gigawatts, the plant will be able to produce more electricity than the Grand Coulee Dam.  A state permit allows the facility to emit 33 million tons of greenhouse gases a year, roughly double what comes from an Alabama coal-fired generator that has topped America’s emissions tables for years.

Now recall who founded the company building the gas behemoth.  That would be Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, who just 5 years ago told delegates at a U.N. climate summit that a rocket ride had shown him a planet that was finite and fragile, prompting a pledge of $2 billion to “restore” nature.  The applause was warm.  The carbon-intensive private jet that carried Bezos to the Scotland meeting was noted by critics and forgotten by everyone else.

Now his company is financing what may become the largest point source of carbon dioxide in the United States, whose contribution to the greening of ecosystems should be welcome.

You are watching a conversion, and it deserves your attention because of what forced it.

The template, not the exception

Enverus Intelligence Research projects that user-owned turbines will account for about 40 percent of new data center capacity through 2030.  Microsoft has signed a 20-year deal for power from a Chevron gas plant in neighboring Reeves County.  Interconnection subscriptions are full, transformers are back-ordered, and the only metric that matters is the time it takes to get a power plant in operation.

In 2021, Facebook’s parent company Meta declared climate change one of the most pressing challenges facing the world and positioned itself among the largest corporate buyers of clean electricity.  Then came its Hyperion data center in Louisiana.  Regulators approved three combined-cycle gas plants for it in August 2025.  In March 2026, Meta tripled the order, funding seven more and making the totals 10 gas plants and nearly $11 billion of investment.  Meta will underwrite 15 years of revenue, while the turbines will run for 30 — a mismatch that has a dissenting member of the Public Service Commission warning that households may inherit the balance.

Elon Musk built an empire on the premise that combustion belongs to the past.  In 2024, he said that a carbon tax was the only action needed to solve climate change.  More recently, addressing G20 ministers, he warned of a significant power shortfall next year and defended data center construction against negative public sentiment.  Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, in the same meeting, asked governments for more electricians and more electricity.  Neither man requested more wind and solar installations.

Energy physics forces a hard reset

Big Tech’s turn toward dedicated gas power does not settle the climate debate, but it exposes the distance between a political narrative and a power grid capable of supporting industries.  When servers must run, physics gets a vote.

For example, at the start of 2026, every grid-scale battery in the United States combined could meet national demand for only 15 minutes.  Modeling the PJM regional power system through 2045, Jonathan Lesser and Mitchell Rolling found that a grid of wind, solar, and batteries would need 10 times the generating capacity of gas and nuclear power.  It would also cost about seven times as much and cover a land area larger than the PJM service area, which comprises most of the Mid-Atlantic and parts of the Midwest.

Yet despite these facts, pseudo-scientists, grifters, and demagogues lectured for 20 years that coal is immoral, natural gas is a bridge to nowhere, and so-called green technologies are the planet’s salvation.  Banks denied financing for hydrocarbon projects in developing countries where surgeons operate under lights powered by unreliable generators and where hundreds of millions cook with sooty wood and dung. 

The lesson is the same for data centers and households: Prosperity requires electricity that is available when needed.  Dependable systems of conventional energy sources will continue to power the tech revolution and human progress for decades.

Dumocrat Michigan…

Man Justifiably Kills Shooter In Self-Defense, Still Gets Punished By Blue State Anyway

By Harold Hutchison

A 19-year-old man who protected others by killing a gunman received two years of probation from a Michigan judge who accused him of using “poor judgment.

Martinez Long, 19, was with Cania Cain at the Fairlane Town Center in Dearborn, Michigan, on July 3 when Cameron Watkins fatally shot Keonte Seaborn,. Long shot Watkins to prevent Watkins from harming anyone else. Long, while found to have acted in self-defense, was still charged with carrying a concealed firearm, The Detroit News. (RELATED: Armed Citizen Halts Shooting Rampage By Man Who Went Berserk Over Vape)

“He didn’t plan on using it that day. He thought he kept it for protection,” Long’s attorney told the court. “He didn’t instigate the fight. He didn’t start the fight, and he did pull it out for protection of others.”

“I know there was a gun fight at the Fairlane mall, and the lawyers have agreed, according to this court’s evaluation, that you were acting in self-defense or the defense of others, so that’s a valid legal defense,” the judge said to Long. “Why did you walk into the mall with a gun in the first place?”

Michigan is a “shall-issue” state that requires a Concealed Pistol License (CPL) to carry a concealed handgun for any applicant over the age of 21 who meets certain criteria, according to the NRA’s summary of the state’s gun laws. The laws distinguish between concealed and open carry, treat pistols in vehicles as concealed, and impose specific duties and location restrictions on CPL holders.

Due to his age, Long was placed under the provisions of the Holmes Youthful Trainee Act, a 2021 law that will allow him to expunge his criminal record if he successfully completes probation.

If ya missed or chose to not listen to RFK Jr speech at the recent R-Con mid term convention in Dallas, ya missed an excellent take down of everything Dumocrat.

100% worth the listen. Watch or play in background to RFK Jrs excellent messaging.

>>> Video for speech at the link. Full transcript within the article. <<<

Robert Kennedy, Jr. Delivers ABSOLUTELY HISTORIC Speech at RNC Midterm Convention in Crushing Blow to Democrat Anti-Americanism (VIDEO).

Robert Kennedy Jr., the outstanding US Health and Human Services Secretary, delivered an absolutely historic speech at the RNC Midterm Convention in Dallas, Texas on Thursday night.

Kennedy spoke about his long history in the Democrat Party, a once great party that represented the working man and woman and stood for individual rights and Freedom of Speech. Kennedy tells the sad story of how almost every police officer and fireman belonged to the Democrat Party and how they protected women and the downtrodden.

RFK Jr. described a party that is an absolute shell of its former self. He tells how the former president had his social media taken down for conflicting with the lies they were telling the American people during the COVID epidemic.

Robert also spoke about Democrats’ support of Israel and the party’s clarity on the radical Islamic threat. That is long gone.

And, then Robert Kennedy, Jr. delivered the most powerful and moving history of his relationship with President Donald Trump.

He ended with, “And I am so grateful to God for giving our country a leader like this.”

This was truly a historic speech. We hope you take the time to listen to this piece of history.

Here is the transcript:

Robert Kennedy Jr.: I’m 72 years old. And for 70 years of my life, I would have bet any amount of money that I would not be addressing a Republican convention.

Let me tell you something.

The irony of my presence here is inescapable. I attended my first Democratic convention in 1960 when I was 6 years old, and I attended most of the conventions, the Democratic conventions after that, and I spoke as a keynote speaker in many of them. I grew up in a Democratic Party of Franklin Roosevelt, of my Uncle John Kennedy, of my father, Robert Kennedy. And ours was a party— Ours was a party of strong principles, of clear policies, and an inspiring idealistic vision for America. My uncle ran on a platform of tax cuts, strong defense, and fighting communism. Does that sound familiar?

The Democrats of that era stood with labor and working people and the American middle class. Nearly every cop and firefighter was a Democrat. Our party was a champion of the Bill of Rights and particularly for unbridled free speech. It was wary of centralized government power and corporate privilege and secret intelligence agencies. My uncle and father understood the connection between free markets and functional democracy. They stood firmly against crony capitalism on the right and socialism on the left. They were all for competition, for meritocracy, and for excellence, which they thought should be a universal aspiration for Americans.

My father and uncles had served in World War II, and they understood the difference between forever wars that they opposed and wars to protect our national security, which they believed we should never hesitate to defend.

My family played critical roles in building NIH and CDC into centers of gold standard science that transformed America into this relentless dynamo. of international research. They promoted physical fitness, and they protected women’s sports. My Uncle Ted Kennedy wrote Title IX, which— because he wanted to make sure that women, real women, were able— were able to have a safe and guaranteed spot in college sports. And they stood with Israel as the bulwark of democracy. And as a beacon for press and religious freedoms, a haven for oppression— from oppression to gays and women and ethnic and religious minorities. amidst a regional sea of intolerance, of misogyny, of child marriage, of human slavery, and of ethnic and religious genocide. They saw Israel as America’s most critical frontline ally in fighting the toxic ideology of Islamism.

That’s right.

Which by its own accounts is waging an existential war against our country and against Western liberal democracies. It’s an ideology that has subjugated and impoverished and tyrannized and tortured the people of Palestine and the people of Iran, and they openly promise to do the same to us. Democrats opposed government coercion, defended individual rights, believed that government should give Americans information, good information, and then let them— trust them to make up their own minds. Democrats and labor leaders fought fiercely in my generation to stop illegal immigration at the border.

During COVID I watched the Democratic Party turn against every one of its essential values, its principles, and all of the policies that define my party. Democrats turned away from gold standard research and blindly defended industry-sponsored, agenda-driven science written by corrupt and captive regulatory agencies.

And the Democrats, which were once the champions of the American Constitution, systematically obliterated the Bill of Rights. And particularly beginning with the First Amendment, under the guise of combating misinformation, Democrats censored hundreds of scientists, and physicians who questioned the government’s dubious COVID pronouncements and orthodoxies. 37 years— 37 hours after President Biden took the oath of office, he ordered Facebook and Instagram to remove my accounts in order to prevent public debate.

Crowd:  Boo!

RFK Jr.: I’m not complaining about what happened to me, but it was a bad thing for our country. Democrats obliterated the first— the second leg of the First Amendment, the right to the guaranteed right of assembly, by social distancing regulations that were completely unscience-based. Democrats violated the third leg of the First Amendment, the freedom to worship. They closed every church in our country for a year. Who could imagine that would have ever happened? And they kept open the liquor stores and the big box stores as essential businesses. Democrats torpedoed the 7th Amendment right to jury trial by giving liability shields to the giant pharmaceutical companies. No matter how negligent they were, no matter how reckless, no matter how toxic the ingredients, no matter how grievous your injury, You could not sue them. Democrats violated the 5th Amendment by shutting down 3 million businesses with no due process and no just compensation. Democrats shut down the 4th Amendment, protection from unlawful searches and seizures, by forcing Americans to disclose their medical information before they could exercise their constitutional rights. In a single year, my party obliterated 250 years of constitutional guarantees. The only Bill of Rights that they left unscathed was the Second Amendment, and probably only because there is a Second Amendment.

Crowd:  Booo!

RFK Jr.: 

And then the party of my body, my choice forced citizens to wear masks and to submit to invasive and intrusive medical interventions against their own wills. The party of MeToo— remember that we were all supposed to listen to women and to believe women— they cruelly silenced the voices of tens of thousands of mothers who believed that their children had suffered vaccine injuries. The Democrats declared war on women’s sports, effectively destroying Title IX.

Democrats condemned meritocracy openly and celebrated mediocrity. The Democratic Party became the party of elites, labeling working Americans as deplorables. Democrats cultivated deep ties with Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Ag, Big Food, Big Insurance, and the mainstream media. They embraced policies that divided Americans along racial lines. They abolished my uncle’s physical fitness test because they said that competition was bad for children.

Crowd:  Boo!

RFK Jr.: 

The Democrats abandoned all of these values and all of their traditional values, offering Americans only one policy, the one policy that they stood for, the unbridled, sociopathic, and blind hatred of a single man, Donald J. Trump. And they were so confident that Trump hatred alone was sufficient to win elections that they abandoned accountability and made our government a predatory organism of monumental incompetence and corruption.

The Democrats dismantled the public— public integrity safeguards and opened the floodgates to thieves and fraudsters who fleeced the American medical regulatory agencies for $100 billion annually during every year of the Biden administration. They somehow— they somehow lost 360,000 children, and they turned our federal government into the biggest child trafficking operation in world history.

Crowd:  Booo!

RFK Jr.:  The Democratic Party, in short, lost its way. I mourn the fact that neither my father nor my uncle would recognize the Democratic Party of today. It struck me this was no longer about left and right. It was about sane and insane. It was about common sense and communism. In April 2023, I ran for president hoping to summon my party back to its bedrock values. But the Democratic Party had lost faith in American voters and utterly ironically lost faith in American democracy. They were convinced that they would lose the ballot box. They couldn’t win. And so they unveiled a lawfare strategy to prevent an election from occurring. They sued every candidate who dared to run against Joe Biden. and then attempted to remove us all from the ballot. A lot of you think that the lawfare was just against Donald Trump. It was mainly against him, but they sued Dean Phillips. They sued Marianne Williamson. They sued Cornel West. They sued Donald Trump 50 times in 38 states to remove him from the ballot.

And they sued me in 12 states to remove me from ballots where I had legally qualified. And then— this is almost comical— after I endorsed President Trump and I tried to remove myself from the ballot so that he could have my votes, they sued me to keep me on the ballot. I’m not joking. Oh, here was the Democratic Party that in my youth, the biggest issue that we had that my father and my uncle fought for was voting rights, and particularly in the southern states, to guarantee that every American had a right to cast a ballot. And here’s that same party 60 years later using all of its ingenuity and all of its power to make sure that Americans could not vote for the candidates that they wanted to vote for. They excluded me from the debates. They canceled the primaries. The Democratic Party changed the rules to make sure I could not win, and neither could the other people who were running as Democrats, no matter how many votes we got. And for the first time in history, they canceled their own convention. No voter ever cast a primary ballot for Kamala Harris. No elected delegate was ever consulted.

A party of no kings simply anointed a queen.

Handpicked by secretive party elites who nobody even knows who they were. They’re just faceless guys with lanyards who were calling all the shots from the upper decks of that convention center, and they— nobody can see their face any more than you can see the face of the people up there. But that’s who was making the decision. And then they canceled the convention and they held a coronation. The day that President Trump was shot in Butler, Pennsylvania, within 3 hours of his shooting, he called me and asked me for a meeting. And during the series of talks that followed, I realized that everything that I had heard about President Trump and everything I believed about him from the mainstream media was a lie. Everything. I discovered, I discovered a self-effacing man of superior intelligence, of empathy and compassion, with an encyclopedic grasp of the issues and within, in molecular detail, and most of all, a near reckless courage to challenge vested interests and official orthodoxies. I found a man who cared deeply about transparency in government, who believed in protecting free speech more than anything, and the entire United States Constitution. We talked about lowering drug prices, supporting farmers and ranchers, standing up for working Americans, restoring law and order, and protecting public safety and security and national safety as well.

We talked about ending official corporate influence, unraveling the corporate capture of our regulatory agencies, and restoring gold standard science and public trust. We, we talked about ending fraud, waste, and abuse. And most importantly to me, We talked about ending the chronic disease epidemic and restoring the health of our children. President Trump told me that he wanted safe food available to all Americans. He wanted to end chronic disease. He wanted to restore our kids’ health. He found it unacceptable that this country pays 2 to 3 times what every developing nation in the world pays, and yet we have the sickest children in the history of the world. We have the highest chronic disease burden ever recorded. These conversations changed the course of my campaign and my life. I realized that many of the foundational values of the Democratic Party had found a new home, and it was called the Republican Party.

Crowd:  USA! USA! USA! Bobby! Bobby! Bobby! Bobby!

RFK Jr.:  Now, out of a sense of fairness, after my conversation with President Trump, I tried to have the same conversation with Kamala Harris. You think she would agree to meet with me? Did she even pick up the telephone?

So on August 23rd, 2024, I suspended my campaign and I endorsed President Trump.

Later that day, on stage at the Turning Point rally in Arizona, I met President Trump, and that moment would never have happened without my friend Charlie Kirk. Charlie played a critical and indispensable role at bringing me and President Trump together. In fact, it was something that he was trying to do for almost a year, the last year of my campaign. And today, on the first anniversary of his assassination, I can’t stand here without thinking about him. Charlie believed that people from all different political traditions could find common ground in their love of country. That we were— we, in this age of algorithms driving us all apart and creating this terrible, destructive polarization, the only way that we were going to rescue our country is if we started talking to each other and having congenial conversations. And he helped build the bridge that President Trump and I walked across that day. And I like to believe that Charlie is looking down on all of us now. And, and seeing the seeds that he planted.

That afternoon, President Trump and I stood together in front of thousands of Americans.

We shook hands and we made a promise to the American people. Together, we promised to make America healthy again.

Some of my— some of my Democratic friends told me that I was a fool for trusting President Trump. And so I want to make the record clear right now. President Trump has kept every single promise that he made to me, without exception.

And we have kept our promise to the American people.

Today, 2 years into this administration, Americans are eating more real food. Real food sales were up 8% in 2025.

Americans are eating less processed food. Since President Trump took office, obesity is down by 7% after 40 years of increasing.

And this is best of all— preliminary data that I received 2 days ago. from CDC indicates that we have now reversed a 30-year decline in longevity.

President Trump has ended 9 wars.

He’s restored competency to our government. He’s restored public faith. He’s restored America’s leadership across the globe.

And I am so grateful to God for giving our country a leader like this.

And I’m grateful to President Trump for including me in his administration and giving me a place.

In this extraordinary revolution that is happening in our country, where we’re going to restore American democracy and restore the America that my uncle and father believed in, the exemplary nation respected and emulated across the globe. We are making America healthy again. It’s up to you now. We need to elect a Republican Congress to keep this momentum going. Let’s go out and do that. God bless you.

God bless America. Thank you all very much.

US Economy Added 3 Times as Many Jobs as Economists Projected in August

“HOLD ON TO YOUR SEATS!”: The economy added 162,000 new jobs last month — shattering economists’ expectations.

More than one million private sector jobs have been added since President Trump took office.

BREAKING: STUDY FINDS mRNA “VACCINES” COULD INDUCE OR ACCELERATE CANCER VIA 35 DISTINCT MECHANISMS

The most comprehensive analysis to date examining the link between mRNA “vaccines” and cancer identifies convergent mechanistic, clinical, and population-level evidence of turbo cancer.

by Nicolas Hulscher, MPH

Cancer is rising at an increasingly alarming pace. Early-onset malignancies are climbing in younger adults, aggressive cancers are appearing in patients with little warning, and U.S. cancer mortality has departed sharply from its pre-pandemic trajectory. Against this backdrop, one of the most important questions in medicine is whether the unprecedented mass deployment of nucleoside-modified mRNA technology could be contributing to cancer initiation, reactivation, or accelerated progression.

We have now fully answered this question in a new paper titled “Potential Oncogenicity of Synthetic mRNA Vaccines: Convergent Mechanistic, Clinical, and Population Evidence for a Concurrent-Hit Model of Accelerated Malignancy” authored by John A. Catanzaro, NMD, PhD; Nicolas Hulscher, MPH (myself); Raphael B. Stricker, MD; Jamie K. Waselenko, MD, FACP, FICT; and Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH.

In the most comprehensive analysis to date examining the link between mRNA “vaccines” and cancer, we brought together mechanistic biology, published clinical cases, large population cohorts, U.S. cancer-incidence data, and national mortality records to evaluate whether these gene products could induce, accelerate, or unmask malignancy.

The findings converge on the same alarming picture: TURBO CANCER IS REAL.

And the implications extend far beyond COVID-19 vaccination, because the same underlying mRNA technology is now being pushed directly into cancer treatment.

Below is a concise breakdown of what we found:

MECHANISTIC EVIDENCE

We identified 35 distinct cancer-promoting mechanisms converging through 4 major routes: (1) protooncogene activation, (2) mutation pressure, (3) protein–protein interaction network interference, and (4) cancer stem-cell clonal acceleration.

Key mechanisms include EGFR/RAS/MAPK and STAT3–MYC activation, p53/BRCA suppression, impaired DNA repair, residual plasmid DNA and SV40 regulatory elements, LINE-1 reverse transcription, m1Ψ-associated frameshifting, chronic LNP inflammation, immune suppression, and cancer stem-cell expansion—pathways capable of promoting genomic instability, uncontrolled growth, immune escape, dormancy reactivation, and metastatic outgrowth. The full inventory of cancer-promoting mechanisms can be found in Table 4 of our study.

Our central concurrent-hit model proposes that these processes do not necessarily operate independently or sequentially. Multiple cancer-promoting hits overlap in the same susceptible host, compressing the time required for dormant, indolent, or microscopic disease to become clinically aggressive.

CLINICAL EVIDENCE

The published clinical literature includes 333 documented turbo cancer cases across 27 countries, involving lymphomas, leukemia, melanoma, breast cancer, lung cancer, glioblastoma and other glial tumors, sarcomas, and pancreatic cancer. The vast majority of these cases occurred following COVID-19 vaccination, with a minority following SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Approximately 86% of the post-vaccination cases occurred after nucleoside-modified mRNA products—about 56% after Pfizer-BioNTech, 25% after Moderna, and another 5% after exposure to both mRNA products across different doses.

Across these cases, recurring patterns include rapid cancer progression, short-latency recurrence, reactivation of previously controlled disease, and tumors involving the injection site or nearby draining lymph nodes.

Lymphoid malignancies represent the largest category in the published case literature, while glioblastoma and pancreatic adenocarcinoma were among the cancers most consistently associated with reports of unusually rapid progression.

POPULATION EVIDENCE

The population-level evidence reinforces these clinical and mechanistic signals.

OUR CDC WONDER ANALYSIS: At least 119,130 EXCESS U.S. CANCER DEATHS, rising to approximately 153,000–197,000 after accounting for mortality displacement.

INDEPENDENT CDC WONDER ANALYSIS: 154,330 excess U.S. cancer deaths, closely matching the lower end of our corrected range.

UNITED STATES (SEER): Early-onset cancer incidence surged 6.4% in just 2 years, from 2021–2023, alongside sharp increases in brain and nervous-system tumors (+19.5%), colorectal cancer (+19.4%), small-intestine cancer (+15.5%), ovarian cancer (+12.8%), stomach cancer (+7.3%), and female breast cancer (+3.6%).

SOUTH KOREA: A nationwide cohort of 8.4 million people found vaccinated individuals had an increased 1-year cancer risk across 6 cancer types: thyroid, gastric, colorectal, lung, breast, and prostate cancer.

ITALY: Vaccinated residents had a 23% higher risk of cancer hospitalization, with an adjusted hazard ratio of 1.23 compared with unvaccinated residents.

These findings come from entirely different data streams and study designs, yet they repeatedly point toward the same concern: accelerated cancer emergence and progression following the era of widespread mRNA exposure.

mRNA ONCOLOGY DANGER

The very mRNA platform now linked in our paper to 35 oncogenic mechanisms is being repurposed to treat cancer itself.

Modern individualized mRNA cancer products encode patient-specific mutated tumor proteins and package them into RNA delivery systems designed to generate a strong immune response against those targets.

But the fundamental safety problem remains: where does that encoded antigen actually get expressed?

The platform can distribute systemically, causing vulnerable tissues including the heart and brain to express tumor-derived antigens—raising the risk of off-target immune attack, cardiac injury, and neurological damage.

Even more concerning, the LNP delivery vehicle itself promoted metastatic outgrowth in mice even without mRNA cargo, suggesting that some oncologic liabilities reside in the platform itself—not only the encoded antigen.

And now the first randomized test of individualized mRNA as monotherapy in residual cancer has FAILED. The Phase 2 BioNTech BNT122-01 trial enrolled 327 patients with molecularly confirmed residual colorectal cancer, crossed its futility boundary, and was terminated due to a mortality imbalance.

This matters enormously because these therapies are being moved into precisely the patients most vulnerable to accelerated disease: people already subjected to multiple mRNA boosters with residual cancer and genomic instability.

OUR CALL

On the combined weight of the mechanistic, clinical, and population evidence, we call for IMMEDIATE MARKET WITHDRAWAL of nucleoside-modified mRNA-LNP products from broad preventive use and a halt to their expansion into adjuvant and neoadjuvant cancer treatment.

35 mechanisms. Hundreds of documented turbo cancer cases across 27 countries. Up to ~197,000 excess U.S. cancer deaths by our analysis. A failed randomized mRNA cancer trial. And the same technology is now being pushed deeper into oncology.

It’s time to END this madness.
