Our mission, as God-fearing and God-loving patriots, is to defend this Constitutional Republic and to increase its greatness, in all good things and ways, by using our voices in free but courteous speech, by discussing the happenings of the world and coming to a profound understanding of those things, and by sharing and promulgating these Truths on both this platform and others.
Happy Hour is commencing at Wolf’s Pub! We’re going to be serious about joy this fine Friday in January.
January, besides being the time of year when presidents are sworn in for their term in office, is also the time when seed catalogs arrive and gardeners begin planning for spring. I went on a seed buying spree today. I just needed a reminder that good things can happen, like seeds sprouting and flowers blooming. So I bought about 20 packets of seeds. And I’m just getting started.
Speaking of getting started, let’s get to our Drink Special: Bénédictine liqueur. The first time I tasted Bénédictine was like a revelation. The origin of Bénédictine is said to date back to a French Benedictine monastery in Normandy, France around the year 1510.
However, as Wikipedia and other sources say, it was “developed by wine merchant Alexandre Le Grand in the 19th century, and marketed as having been derived from an original recipe of Benedictine monks…”
The official Bénédictine website says, “Bénédictine is an elixir; a subtle alchemy of 27 herbs and spices carefully sourced from around the world and hand-selected by the Master Herbalist.” Many of the herbs are considered medicinal, which may be one reason that a nightcap of Bénédictine contributes to a restful night’s sleep.
The Benedictines are known for hospitality, so it is fitting that Le Grand named his liqueur after them. I have spent many a joyful evening sipping on this aromatic, mysterious and fascinating liqueur. Let us toast the Intrepids among us who made it There and Back Again, DC Edition. God bless you for your faithfulness and patriotism!
In a spirit of reconciliation, that our President has asked us to embrace for the moment, let our conversation here be one of civility. Let us be especially kind in our sorrows as we weep for our troubled nation, and let us find together that joy does indeed cometh in the morning.
If you really just need to vent and verbally brawl, head over to the UTree, where your inner beast can cut loose. And if you are new or need a refresher on the house rules, go here. Thank you in advance for giving our burly bouncers nothing to do.
I bet your heart plummeted to your feet when you first saw this. I know mine did. The sick, twisted, devilish and diabolical comments from assorted leftists, trolls, bots, and Trump haters confirms for me that we are in the thick of a darkness that threatens to completely overwhelm our nation. Looking for a ray of light.
“The Light shines in the darkness and the darkness comprehends it not.” (John 1:5)
Well, election reform is a good place to start and President Trump knows that better than anyone. Without that we will never have another election that we can trust. I hope we all do realize that we are going to have to do this on a local level.
We will have to get in the battle in our own communities. We will have to become experts at running elections and ensuring they are above board. Then we will have to move it to the county and state levels and ultimately the national level. How we will accomplish that with a nearly non-functioning republic is anyone’s guess, but somehow the light will shine and show us the way.
What got me going over the last couple of days is the persistent lies that the propagandists (aka MSM) spewed. It got so vile on Epiphany (January 6) that I knew the sheer number of patriots in DC had enraged the enemies of freedom and a feeding frenzy commenced. It hasn’t stopped yet. Just a bitter taste:
I have a love/hate relationship with Steve Bannon’s War Room.
https://youtu.be/dDuBIgbX6Hc
At the start of every show, he FORCES US TO LISTEN TO THE VILE STINKING WORDS of those in media and government who crave ultimate power over us, indeed who have been exercising despotic control over what we see, hear, know and understand. (That fire ring below has the Tolkien quote:
“One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.”)
It was torture to listen to yesterday’s podcasts. Back during the 2016 campaign and into President Trump’s early presidency, I was a devotee of Reddit’s The_Donald group. Over and over I saw young people coming to faith in God because of the evil they were seeing and hearing from those on the Left.
These young people could not believe the level of lying, character assassination, threats, and violence that they were experiencing.
Seeing the reality of evil up close led them to God because instinctively they knew such great evil had to have an opposite, and that opposite could only be Divinity. They understood that the evil was not just your run-of-the-mill human badness.
It was spiritual in nature. It was diabolical. Seeing it up close and personal awakened the young people. Isn’t God wonderful? “But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.” (Gen. 50:20)
Sidney Powell knows evil and how it is expressed in media. She felt the oppression of it recently and reached out for prayer. She’s battered but still standing. God grant her joy amidst the trouble and evil.
Brave journalist Lara Logan sees the effects of propaganda, too.
My husband spoke just yesterday to a colleague. The subject of the election came up. This poor fellow parroted the political and media-driven lie that, “This was the most secure election in history.”
The majority of the American population is still sucking at the teat of NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, FOX, etc. This is an existential problem. It is an addiction problem, and a brainwashing problem.
It has cost us dearly. The alternative media, while helpful, did not make enough inroads to overcome the distinct advantage ofcorporate Marxist media. We have to do better. We can do better. We will do better. We don’t have a choice, so we might as well pick ourselves up, wash our faces, smile large, and enter the fray.
I am proud of the thousands and thousands of patriots who showed up to make an historic statement that the other side could only TRY to stop, by besmirching its beauty with their LIES and TRICKERY.
Yes, their LIES and TRICKERY – to try to falsely portray themselves as VICTIMS, when in fact they are SCHEMING BETRAYERS of this great Republic.
LIES and TRICKERY which will fall with THEM as wheat and chaff before my SWORD OF TRUTH.
I am going to tell you what really happened. I will tell you THESE THINGS and much more.
How American Proles stormed the Queen’s Palace on our own Bastille Day
How weak men and women – betrayers, cowards and criminals – hatched a scurrilous plot to hide from the truth and to make themselves victims, as they voted to save themselves and condemn America
How I will not back down – how I am PROUD that I was there – and now rain SHAME on Washington and the corrupt, weak, and undeserving men and women who occupy it
How Pelosi’s plot backfires even now, for the TRUTH will hound her to HER GRAVE IN HISTORY
My call to arrest ALL of those who concocted this media plot to defame patriotic Americans
AN APPEAL TO HEAVEN
This is going to be a stream of consciousness recollection – a remembrance – in out-of-order snapshots – nearly unedited. I will update it in parts, and if it turns into an entire book, so be it.
This will take at least three days to tell. But when I am done, you will know that my fellow Americans – ordinary men and women – were HEROES, and our leaders in Washington are SHAMEFUL, NATION-BETRAYING COWARDS, who hide from TRUTH and JUSTICE behind Nancy Pelosi’s wicked trickery.
STAND BACK. IT’S ALL COMING OUT.
W
THE TRUTH WILL NOT BACK DOWN
1. Lupus contra mundum
I don’t know most of their names, but their faces, their smiles, their flags, banners and signs – they will all remain burned into my memory, and I will die a happy man remembering them. It was one of the most beautiful afternoons of my life, and if I am the ONLY person in the world who believes in it, then I will join Athanasius and stand against the world.
When media mouthpiece “blow-dries” who won’t even LOOK AT US – who don’t even KNOW these wonderful people – when politicians who would kick us off an airplane to get an extra seat for their toady staffers – DARE to call these people “domestic terrorists”, then I will drop my gun, pick up my Bible, and SHOW THEM which weapon to truly fear.
Ron Wyden is a FREAK. A “soft-serve communist” – the very definition of nebbish – who lives comfortably in a nation built by far better men. Wyden is one of the greatest hypocrites to ever walk the face of this earth. This is the man who – while he coddles ANTIFA and BLM (who not surprisingly figure into Pelosi’s plot against us) – dared to call the men, women and CHILDREN I met that afternoon “domestic terrorists”.
I was driving home from Washington, DC in the middle of the night – somewhere in the darkness on the highway in Virginia – when I heard Wyden’s sound byte for the second time. It just GALLED ME to no end, and in fact it is because of that sniveling bicycle Bolshevik that I resolved to write this article.
So I guess I can thank him for something.
America, I’m going to tell you something SHAMEFUL. President Trump was the ONLY one who defended leftists LIKE US at Charlottesville.
WHUUUUUT? “Leftists like us?”
Most of you WEAK – PARTIAL – PARTISAN BASTARDS and BITCHES – just like me – did not catch this. In the massive desire to proclaim YES THEY’RE NAZIS or YES THEY’RE COMMUNISTS, only President Trump dared to call INNOCENT lefty protesters LIKE US IN THE MIRROR “good people”.
It just passed unnoticed by everybody.
The “fine people hoax” mostly ends up being a hoax on the people who pull it, when KARMA comes around. Only WEAK people – like China Joe Biden – either USE or FALL FOR the “fine people hoax”.
TRUMP. STOOD. UP. FOR. THEM. He stood up for leftist peaceful protesters.
Just like he stands up for us.
We don’t DESERVE a man like Trump.
I have TEARS in my eyes as I write that.
Trump is HISTORY GRADE, and WE THE PEOPLE KNOW IT.
Whether it’s really “goodbye” to Trump now, and “hello” to WEAK, WICKED, China puppet Joe Biden – or whether “Q” and the WEAK men behind it, come riding in on our innocent CHUMP DREAMS to save us from Communist China, doesn’t matter.
WE. SAVE. OURSELVES.
And if you do not have the BACKBONE to stand up to this treasonous media sliming of our great President, based on a TRICK by that wicked witch Nancy Pelosi, then you CANNOT BE IN MY ARMY.
2.
It’s weird how their images are embedded in my memory. Every one had a story why they were there.
As we started walking down Constitution Avenue, I began following a small group of other patriots who had just met. I was now separated from the group I had been talking to during Trump’s speech and those before it.
One person was a woman with short blonde hair, carrying what seemed to be a very unique flag at the event.
The Tree Flag (or Appeal to Heaven Flag) was one of the flags used during the American Revolution. The flag, featuring a pine tree with the motto “An Appeal to God” or, more usually, “An Appeal to Heaven”, was used originally by a squadron of six cruisers commissioned under George Washington‘s authority as commander in chief of the Continental Army in October 1775. It was also used by Massachusetts state navy vessels in addition to privateers sailing from Massachusetts.[1]
The design of the flag came from General Washington’s secretary, Colonel Joseph Reed. In a letter dated October 20, 1775, Reed suggested a “flag with a white ground and a tree in the middle, the motto AN APPEAL TO HEAVEN” be used for the ships Washington commissioned.[2]
The following summer, on July 26, 1776, the Massachusetts General Court established the flag of the state navy with a resolution that stated in part: “…that the Colours be a white Flag, with a green Pine Tree, and an Inscription, ‘Appeal to Heaven’.”[2]
“And where the body of the people, or any single man, is deprived of their right, or is under the exercise of a power without right, and have no appeal on earth, then they have a liberty to appeal to heaven, whenever they judge the cause of sufficient moment. And therefore, though the people cannot be judge, so as to have, by the constitution of that society, any superior power, to determine and give effective sentence in the case; yet they have, by a law antecedent and paramount to all positive laws of men, reserved that ultimate determination to themselves which belongs to all mankind, where there lies no appeal on earth, viz. to judge, whether they have just cause to make their appeal to heaven.”[10]
She was explaining to the others that it was her desire to carry THIS PARTICULAR FLAG in the march. And yes – not only did she carry it in the march – she carried it up to the balcony at the House!
I spotted her flag at a distance numerous times during the afternoon.
My last picture of her flag showed her going up the stops on the opposite side of the balcony.
This, my friends, is true patriotism.
When I heard the fake news media and Ron Wyden calling us “domestic terrorists”, I immediately thought of this woman – whose desire was to carry THIS PARTICULAR historic flag, connected to George Washington, in Washington, DC.
I’m sorry, but these are not terrorists. They are not even “extremists”. These are the PEOPLE of the United States of America. These are people who revere and respect HISTORY.
OUR HISTORY.
Which the Bolshevik Democrat party CRAPS ON every time it can.
HOW can these people like Ron Wyden even TALK about LAW AND ORDER, when they STOLE AN ELECTION with BLATANT BOLSHEVIK CHEATING? A CRIMINAL ACT – immoral at its very core – which, through the plainly stated Bolshevik THEORY of Marxist control of the media, they KNOW they are unanswerable for?
No. WE are not “terrorists”. But YOU are CRIMINALS.
Now – let me be PLAINER THAN HELL, and maybe even PLAIN AS HEAVEN.
I TRESPASSED ON CAPITOL HILL PROPERTY AND I AM PROUD OF THAT FACT.
I follow in the steps of GREATER MEN who believed in ONE MAN, ONE VOTE.
When I was a student back in the Triassic period, and the great Martin Luther King, Jr. had been assassinated – in my opinion as a FALSE FLAG operation by COMMUNISTS and SOVIETS – we were “forced” to read his writings.
As a young “pretend radical”, I carried a copy of one of Alinsky’s books which I never actually read, but which had a super-cool title – “Reveille For Radicals“. It went well with longish hair and acting out. But the thing is, I actually DID read Martin Luther King, Jr. I will admit that I did it because we had to, but sometimes adults just know better.
King’s most fascinating idea – to me – was that if we engaged in non-violent civil disobedience, we had to be prepared to be arrested, charged, and punished, and to accept this peacefully. Those were the DUES of non-violent civil disobedience.
Well, I am hopeful that my FIRST ARREST will be for trespassing on the steps of OUR HOUSE.
There are plenty of pictures. Here’s some help. Just add math.
When you find pictures of me, you will know it. My picture is a CELEBRATION of exactly what Martin Luther King, Jr., who I hope to meet someday, taught me.
THIS is my appeal to heaven.
3. In The Cold And Rain, We Became The Storm
A rare privilege it was indeed, for me to be in Washington, DC early, on the afternoon of January Fifth, to hear a variety of “second tier” speakers at the early rally.
The “highlight” for me was not the fiery Alex Jones, pounding his fists and looking dark and ominous, as the sputtering electrical system put him in a terrible side-lighting, until the system almost miraculously exploded and then fixed itself two-thirds of the way through his rant, calling for a return to GOD to save us.
Nor was it the showman Roger Stone, prancing about in his pin-striped zoot-suit and fedora, with Nixon victory signs raised in the air. As the “headliner”, cheers abounded for the man who ALMOST single-handedly showed us the corruption of the federal judiciary, laced with toxic, politicized “Obama judges”, which theoretically do not exist, but which are in practice a shockingly bounteous problem.
No – the highlight was ANOTHER victim of that politicized judiciary – General Michael Flynn – who like President Donald J. Trump and GENERAL George Washington, is a master of “playing from the downside”.
But let’s start at the beginning.
Unlike Wednesday, January Sixth, when the Metro was FILLED with Trump supporters, those train cars were desolate on Tuesday afternoon.
I took this picture for a reason.
I have a kind of “romantic memory” of looking down the aisle in subway and train cars. This view is a cross-cutting memory in my life – in reality – in dreams – in a gift from my wife – even in a story I never wrote down.
I emerged from the Metro at Federal Triangle. I heard loud noises and simply followed them. After so many Stop The Steal rallies with only a dozen people, or 100 people max, this group in the distance was indeed a sight to behold.
This man is the soldier who got me to General Flynn. “Saving Private Wolf”. Allow me to explain.
Disguised as a homeless person on the street, he asked for a handout, but I was instructed by Highest Command not to give him any money. I don’t know why – usually I get the OK to give money. This time I did not, and I felt a bit guilty. I could not understand why God said no. However, I have to obey HQ. I am a loyal soldier in God’s Army.
We got to talking, and the soldier passed on what he knew about the rally. I thanked him and adjusted my gear. Before I walked away, I put my hands in my pocket and felt my big bottle of sports drink. An image of William Barr shrugging with his water bottle passed through my mind, and I shrugged, pulled out my bottle and asked him if he wanted it.
He happily took it, and we smiled.
Only later did I realize that I never had to pee that afternoon, which guaranteed that I did not miss General Flynn’s short speech.
God works in wonderful ways!
As I got closer, I could see more and more people, and I could almost hear the speaker clearly. I was going to be a good day!
It was cold and cloudy, but the sky was almost bright.
Getting closer, however, the sky grew darker. The wind picked up.
I took a picture of a Betsy Ross flag, and thought of Steve!
I didn’t catch the first speaker, but I think he may have said the equivalent of “Don’t trust China – China is asshoe.” No, seriously – I came in at the end. Kinda missed it all.
Media coverage was rather sparse. This, despite the fact that the lineup included quite a few very interesting people. George Papadopoulos, for example, and his wife Simona, who is even more attractive in person!
This man influenced me very strongly. He is a pastor who frequently asked for AMEN, which of course is MY LINE!
He wears black in honor of the “black-robed regiment”. This was a derisive term coined by a British loyalist, for American colonial clergy who advocated for revolution and independence, and who were considered more of a problem than the actual rebellious colonists.
THIS LADY is now one of my favorite patriots! Christie Hutcherson of Women Fighting For America!
She was absolutely ON FIRE, and had the crowd WARMED UP from cheering, clapping, and roaring in response. She makes no bones about what is needed – REVOLUTION!
The crowd was really ready now.
RAIN!!!
This was one of the last pictures I took, before I had to get all my electronics bagged up and out of the rain and wind. The speakers were already going under umbrellas, which almost nobody else had.
The STORM was upon us!
There were several speakers, including Pastor Mark Burns, who was great. I was VERY proud of the fact that almost NOBODY left. People just bundled up the best they could and gritted their teeth.
The rain finally settled down into an annoying drizzle, and the wind picked up enough that it evaporated the wetness appreciably. Of course, that combination was also pretty darn cold.
All my sensitive gear was staying dry, but just barely, as the water was getting everywhere.
Somewhere along the way, I was surprised to hear the name of our next guest:
General Mike Flynn!
I got one picture of General Flynn at the last minute – pulling my camera out quickly and not focusing or zooming – forgetting to turn off the flash – basically one of the worst pictures of my life. I *THINK* this is it. The man is standing there with no umbrella in the rain, which you can see in the light beams if you zoom in.
General Flynn was impressively low-key, and I thought to myself – yeah – this guy really is some kind of spy. He pointed out that none of us were leaving – that we were staying right there in the cold and rain and wind, much like General Washington’s men. I have to say, THAT compliment warmed me as much as an extra layer would have, right then.
But then something happened that I did not expect. He talked about patriotism, and then he talked about our ancestors, who had fought for freedom, and our duty to them.
What came to my mind was not the ancestor who served in the American Revolution, nor the Texan who fought for the Confederacy, nor my grandfather who served in World War I.
I remembered my mom. My mother who, as a strong and resourceful teenager, led a group of fellow refugees across what is now Poland and the Czech Republic, to get to the American lines in Germany. How in what little English she remembered from early childhood, she proudly told the astonished American soldiers that she, too, was an American. And how she finally came home to America on a transport ship, and saw the Statue of Liberty, and cried at the very sight of it, along with everybody else who was returning.
And although I was smiling at the same time, I, too, was crying just a bit in the rain.
As darkness fell, we were tired and beat, standing for hours. Nothing cures that like some music that makes you want to MOVE!
The kid in the center in the white pull-over is only 16, but he had one heck of a speaking ability and a powerful message about patriotic values. We’ll be hearing more from him.
C. J. Pearson was there, too, earlier, but I don’t have any pictures of him because of the rain.
This man gave a rousing speech about the flag – all the while with his father’s own folded flag held aloft. Don’t even think about burning a flag within 100 miles of this guy!
Speaking of flags, my attention was constantly drawn to this one.
Patrick Byrne was there, and he had a GREAT elevator pitch about how the STEAL worked, and Obama’s role in it.
Look at that crowd. Nobody left. Nobody paid us a dime. We got rained on, blown by wind, our asses froze off, and we STILL stuck it out.
And THAT is what I’m talking about.
We are not “domestic terrorists”, and anybody who says so is LYING TO THEMSELVES.
We are patriots who believe not merely in this country, but in its founding purposes.
We believe in the life-saving, life-giving, and life-loving FREEDOMS which our founders so wisely chose as the best principles of enduring popular government.
We are not merely anti-tyrannical. We are pro-freedom.
And we are willing to fight in the rain, the cold, and the wind, to help defend that ideal.
So help us God.
4. Trail of Tears
The fact that this writer – descended from two of the Five Civilized Tribes later subjected to Indian removal – reveres the thundering populist President Andrew Jackson who removed them – is oddly reminiscent of why I followed Trump’s order to vacate the House grounds, where I had moments earlier defied law enforcement under his ultimate authority.
Don’t ask history to be simple. It’s not.
History is a complicated business.
Let us EMBRACE that complication, as I explain to you what I did, and why I did it.
Crossing the Senate parking lot, we entered the lawn of the House complex itself. The highly ignored “AREA CLOSED” signs around statues were my first indication that people were going “where they weren’t supposed to go”.
I had a bit of an urge to jump the barrier and take pictures of the statues, but I resisted the temptation. I still felt like respecting the signs.
What point would there be to disobeying? I could see the statues fine. The signs seemed sensible, even if humorously ignored. The rule may have been something smart like preservation, and not something stupid like COVID.
I was better than that, I told myself. I would respect the signs. I would obey.
The crowd was still moving fairly rapidly at this point. Here you can see a Confederate flag, and one of the Pine Tree flags I had been documenting.
I like the Confederate flag as part of history. I have no desire to own one. Nevertheless, I deeply respect those who DO own them, because these flags are a hard part of history to own. You must be BRAVE to openly own one. People will judge you negatively. It takes GUTS to own a Confederate flag.
Even if you call somebody who owns a Confederate flag an enemy, you are not wise if you cannot respect that enemy as BRAVE.
However, I respect the woman who carried the Pine Tree flag more.
She had a strong purpose to bring that particular flag. It was literally a mission. To me, this kind of allegiance to symbolism, to the level of personal duty, has to be respected.
Soon we came to a place where an Uncle Sam with a megaphone told us to MOVE ON toward the Capitol Building (not where he’s pointing here, but rather straight ahead). People asked where to go, and if we should go on. They asked if they were on the right path. He said we were – just move on straight ahead.toward the Capitol Building.
As we got closer, things started slowing down, and the crowd grew tighter – denser. Somewhere along the way in here, a woman moved quickly through the crowd, giving us a message. She told us that we would not have any loudspeakers, microphones, crowd leaders, or other direction on the West side of the building, and that we would have to just chant LOUDLY together on our own.
That is in fact what happened. But that is not ALL that happened.
I did not realize that the first loud explosions were actually tear gas canisters. The very first one, I thought might be fireworks – or a mechanical sound – something whipping hard like a slapping cable.
The second time I heard one, I thought it was a flash-bang, like when police are bursting into an apartment and arresting somebody. I was shocked, quite frankly. Looking ahead, nobody was close to the building that I could see. Why were they using flash-bangs?
The third explosion, I think I heard the propulsion of it, before it went off. Or maybe it was louder, or something. I don’t know what, exactly, it was about it, but it made me think it was utterly overkill. I was angered that they were launching explosives at peaceful Trump supporters simply rallying outside the Capitol Building. So as soon as it went off, I took a huge breath, reared back, and yelled “FUCK YOU!” at whoever was firing these things, in my loudest voice.
Getting closer, somebody told me it was TEAR GAS. I was shocked, quite frankly. Tear gas? REALLY?
Around that time, I crossed my first downed “Area Closed” sign.
The utter ABSURDITY of the situation struck me right then.
So – we are having a rally at the House, but we can’t even get close to it, and we’re too big a crowd for wherever the microphones and loudspeakers are, which is NOT on the most obvious side of the complex – meaning right in front of us – particularly for a big crowd – and there is not a single person to control the crowd or lead us. Not only that – we’re being hit with flash bangs or tear gas or whatever, and even the POLICE are not trying to direct us to the right spot, or talk to us out here, but are simply ENGAGING US WITH EXPLOSIVES AND CHEMICAL AGENTS from a distance?
WHAT THE FUCK?
We’re not murderous terrorists with AK-47s. We’re a bunch of guys and chicks and GRANDMOTHERS and KIDS. We look like a FOOTBALL GAME CROWD with TRUMP FLAGS.
So you can’t come down and TALK to us, but you have to shell us from wherever?
Now, at this point, my attitude was: Well, you folks sure are stupid, but I’m going to get as close as reasonable, because we’ve got a lot of people here, and we need room for the crowd. We can still do this peacefully.
However, I was DONE with their “Area Closed” fairly tale. We were there to protest the selling out of America to China by a fraudulent election, and that was it.
Getting closer, I could see people had climbed the scaffolding near the Building.
Obviously I’m not going to do that, but I’m thinking, WOW – is THAT why the tear gas? Doesn’t seem like it’s going to work, guys.
The crowd was now getting really thick and not moving at all. We were all nearly STOPPED.
However, there were some people moving, both forwards and backwards, in a kind of very thin and crooked “trail” through the crowd.
I called it the “Trail of Tears”.
At first, the trail was moving mostly BACKWARDS. Men and women and children, what I would call definite “non-combatants”, were moving BACK with tears, red eyes, drooling, and obvious effects of TEAR GAS.
Some of these were clearly families, and it was BECAUSE there were women and children and old men who could not take the tear gas, that they were retreating. Each group coming back angered me more.
Meanwhile, moving in the other direction, were small groups of almost exclusively younger men, many of them wearing similar clothes. Many had helmets, padding and goggles.
This group shown here was the “Sons of Liberty” – obviously named after the historical “Sons of Liberty” group from the American Revolution. Others were “Proud Boys” or similar – very much like the people who had protected us from BLM at our smaller “Stop The Steal” rallies.
Don’t ask me to denounce the Proud Boys. They didn’t attack anybody that I ever witnessed. I only saw them – by their mere presence – keeping satanic BLM from disrupting our prayer meetings at the Great Seal which says “WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE”. Disruption and threats of violence happen when the Proud Boys are NOT there. DO THE MATH. I have thanked them personally for protecting us.
I got the impression that these groups were prepared for attacks by ANTIFA, and therefore had helmets and goggles – useful for dealing with tear gas and pepper spray.
Were they involved with any violence at the Capitol, other than defending old people like me? There should be plenty of video evidence to find the truth.
Speaking of evidence, you can see the tear gas very clearly in this picture.
This is when I decided to advance. I had seen enough. I decided that I was going to move forward by tagging along on the end of one of these groups of young men, and risk the tear gas.
I piled in behind several different groups in order to get where I wanted to go. First, I moved forward on the left of the West side, including over the low wall. That group was going left, so I followed others forward and right to get closer to the front of the crowd. At that point, I followed two women laterally across the front to the right, to get to a short wall next to stairs.
I was then pulled up onto the top of that wall, directed through some scaffolding, and up some stairs to the top of some scaffolding in front of bleachers on the right of the area.
Here is the view of my path.
I had basically advanced from the parking lot behind the big trees on the LEFT in the back, toward the trees in the upper right. Crossing a low wall running roughly from the center tower to the trees in the upper right, I then moved forward and right, until I was below this shot.
Looking down, you can see somebody negotiating the side of the stairs near where I went up, which would be down and to the left from this picture.
You can also see some people going through a door in this photo. I don’t know where the door goes, but as I said in the comments, I was not going to go there.
Here is the big picture:
And here is the bigger picture:
Some of you Senators and Representatives may call us “domestic terrorists”, but you know that is a lie, and saying it makes you liars.
I would say we were mostly “non-violent civil disobedience protesters”.
What we did outside was thousands of minor crimes. What YOU did on the inside was just one crime, but it was one of the biggest crimes in human history.

The Wolf’s Head Pub is open for business. It’s Free-for-All Friday and your first well drink is on the house. Tonight’s special is the English classic, Gin and Tonic. If you want to get fancy, add a star anise to the bottom of the glass. It adds a hint of licorice and blends beautifully. And lime. Always lime and never lemon.
Here’s a Brief History of Gin. Let’s just say juniper is the Thing when it comes to gin. My favorite is good old Beefeaters Gin, although nowadays you can find some really delicious gins from boutique distillers.
Speaking of England, let’s take a trip to The Eagle and Child, also known as The Bird and Baby, a pub in Oxford, England that was frequented by Tolkien and Lewis of 20th century literary fame. It has been a pub since the 17th century.
Lewis, who was known to drink three pints of beer for breakfast, spent a great deal of time in the Rabbit Room there, reading from his manuscripts and critiquing the writings of his group of friends known as the Inklings.
The featured image above is the Rabbit Room. I can almost hear Lewis reading in his booming voice…
“In fighting those who serve devils one always has this on one’s side; their Masters hate them as much as they hate us. The moment we disable the human pawns enough to make them useless to Hell, their own Masters finish the work for us. They break their tools.” — That Hideous Strength
Do we not see this in action this very day?
The human tools of the NWO, globalists, communists, socialists (whatever you want to call them) are in the process of being disabled. Broken.
Before I get to the good news, civility is what keeps the Qtree a place of sanctuary and intellectual inspiration. Cutting completely loose belongs over at the UTree, not here at the QTree. Civility is king. Rules here if you need a refresher or are new. Thank you in advance for giving our burly bouncers nothing to do. Play nice and say a little breath prayer for our great President and his cabinet and family, and all patriots.
Okay, now to the good news. WE ARE WINNING.
* The State of Georgia’s feckless Gov. Kemp, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and their cronies are being absolutely crushed by public opinion and the unfolding truth of their involvement in election fraud. DISABLED.
* The States of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia are in a tailspin ever since the State of Texas (and about 19 other states at last count) sued in the Supreme Court for relief from the unlawful changes in voting laws in the battleground states. Their responses have been limp.
“Trump broke every other news entity even before he took office in 2017. CNN, MSNBC, the Washington Post, the New York Times, and the rest have always been left-wing, only with an illusory veneer of neutrality. Trump smashed the veneer, accurately calling them “fake news” amid their swirl of lies about him…”

As one of We The People, I have standing to file suit against Sec. of State when election is conducted under rules not adopted by state legislature.
GA unlawfully diluted my in person vote & violated equal protection. Your votes too.

Get a load of her low-class response to Sen. Paul:
.@RandPaul is currently holding up passage of the #NDAA, blaming America, and delaying hazardous duty pay to hundreds of thousands of our service members and their families. Inexcusable.
Rand and I do have one thing in common, though. We’re both 5’2” tall. https://t.co/l0XebRLW3Q
We could go on and on and on. Hard times are ahead, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. THEY ARE NOT GOING TO GET AWAY WITH IT. WE ARE WINNING.
Remember the pub scene in Waking Ned Devine, when the evil witch meets her just end while everyone is celebrating in the pub? That’s how it feels just now. God bless us and keep us safe as we get ready to fight another day! Oh heck, the second round is on the house, too!
Absentee Ballots are fine. A person has to go through a process to get and use them. Mail-In Voting, on the other hand, will lead to the most corrupt Election is USA history. Bad things happen with Mail-Ins. Just look at Special Election in Patterson, N.J. 19% of Ballots a FRAUD!
I was already thinking about doing this post, because after the SECOND or THIRD mailer from Trump, urging us to get our absentee ballots, I figured that MAYBE – just MAYBE – Trump sees something coming that WE DON’T.
Let’s rotate that sucker…..
I will be an absentee voter. We have a lot of absentee voters. It works, so we are in favor of absentee.
President Trump 7/30/20
Sure enough, if you go looking for images about Trump and absentee ballots, you can even find an image of one of his absentee ballot REQUEST FORMS, filled out – or at least the bottom of it.
SO – the first thing I’m going to do, is to suggest that – NO MATTER WHAT – I think it’s a good idea to get your absentee ballot request in NOW, but if not NOW, then AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Without leaning on ANY reason other than the knowledge that TRUMP TWEETS AGE WELL – and the THEORY that this also applies to these official mailers – which all say…..
PRESIDENT TRUMP NEEDS YOU TO ACT NOW.
President Trump is Counting on You.
TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION:
MAKE A PLAN TODAY…..
Well, that sure is interesting…..
SO – let me just say this. Without reading ANYTHING beyond this, I’d suggest making this moment right here a decision point. CAN YOU PULL OFF ABSENTEE? If so, then either COMMIT TO VOTING ABSENTEE, or HOLD THAT THOUGHT.
OK?
Now – let’s look at WHY this might be a good idea.
Why Things Are Going To Get Interesting
Tonight the attempted illusion has burst. No amount of media spin, punditry or polls can convince the American public that this election is close. And if the American public does not believe it is close, the Biden chance for cheating a win is gone. Trump has won.
Phoenix posted this tonight, and I was very glad to see it. I had tried to say the same thing on Twitter, but Twitter suppresses me horribly.
My take was a bit different – I was pointing out that the ShadowGate people are RESPONDING right now to this changed perception by attacking people like Daughn with “demoralization bots”, and by getting her group BANNED on Facebook (she had to fight to get it reinstated). I see this as psychological warfare.
This is all about CHANGING our perceptions – about trying to psych us into believing that Trump does not “have it sewed up”.
It’s ALL perceptions – just like Q has told us over and over and over. If we think the majority are for Trump, and they really ARE for Trump, no cheat will hold.
SO – let me ask you – how do they change mass psychology?
WITH MORE EVENTS.
That is almost ALWAYS how it is done. There are almost no other ways to do it – particularly with roughly two months to the election.
Now – here is the deal. The other side has OTHER REASONS for more events.
The Comey Faction in FBI has always responded to big news negatives with EVENTS like “false flags”, MK killings, etc. And we KNOW that there will be more indictments shortly, and they WILL BE top people in the Comey FBI.
There is no way around this. I’m not being negative – we have materially WON the 2020 election. And yet, we must face the realities that we are up against.
And THIS NEXT THING is very important. It’s why I think things are accelerating.
This is the thought that was prompted when Phoenix said the following…..
phoenixrising37 August 28, 2020 at 18:21
Wolfie, we all are hearing that Antifa etc are being tracked, monitored… a few are suggesting that this will hopefully lead to evidence of Soros funding… what do you think?
wolfmoon1776 August 28, 2020 at 18:40
I think you need to do like Trump says and get your request for an absentee ballot in NOW.
I’m going to answer your question with a post. You just made me realize something HUGE.
OK – my realization was not directly related to DOJ going after ANTIFA, but it’s very close. It stems from what Phoenix is saying. What I am seeing is that a lot of people who have been fighting are all correct, if we just analyze what happened correctly.
It is becoming clear that Brian Cates and Wictor/Carlos are right. DOJ and FBI – the “white hats” – are bringing in – as in ARRESTING – boatloads of Antifa, rioters, leftist radicals, etc. DOJ spox Kerry Kupec is tweeting out TONS of stuff on arrested ANTIFA types. DOJ is going after these folks in a HUGE way.
This is exactly what Thomas Wictor assured us WOULD HAPPEN. This is what Brian Cates said WOULD HAPPEN. The “but nothing’s happening” crowd are ALL WRONG. They’re either demoralization bots, or people who got suckered by these Eeyores.
Now you remember Kerry Kupec, the K-MAC of HONEY BADGER (Barr), is that lovely lady who Sundance was copying on all his stuff – and you will notice that Sidney Powell is retweeting Sundance’s stuff all over the place – so she knows SD is “right” as well.
But how can this be? How can the “Trump’s got this” and the “Trump doesn’t have this” group both be right?
Now, some of you may think I listen to Carlos and Brian and that crowd, so that means Sundance is “wrong”. And others may think I’ve been listening to Sundance lately, so WTH – why am I saying these guys that disagree with him lately are right? And note – that is a weird fight – totally ginned up by the other side, IMO. I think ShadowGate bots are behind that fight.
NO – what Phoenix got me to see is that they’re all right, but Sundance triggered something.
And Aubergine helped trigger it!
WHAT? Well, it’s complicated, but I will explain.
HERE WE GO.
Everything that I am seeing is telling me that Trump and Barr have the other side almost cornered on the chessboard, in terms of LEGITIMATE PLAY.
There is clearly a huge fight between SDNY and main Justice, which parallels the fight between the New York commies and Trump. The fight with SDNY is old, and goes back to Preening Preet Bharara, and the hiding of the Weiner laptop, Hillary exoneration, and so much more.
That fight between Barr and Berman was the fight really starting to show, and then SDNY goes after Bannon, and shortly after that, action is announced by Barr against New York on nursing homes.
So NY/Cuomo/deBlasio/SDNY vs. USA/Trump/Barr/mainDOJ is actually a THING.
NOW – I believe that SDNY was going to go after Bannon from word GO on his wall stuff. SDNY is activated in all possible ways for the continuous, ongoing COUP, and they only pulled the trigger on Bannon because they wanted to do it WHEN THEY DID IT.
Why did they do it then? I suspect multiple reasons.
ONE was to pre-empt Barr on nursing homes. They knew that was coming, so they timed things defensively. It’s all very SDNY.
However, I think the main reason SDNY busted Bannon was to find out what Sundance may have passed to him, to pass to President Trump.
Aubergine theorized recently (link welcome – I can’t find it) that Sundance passed his stuff to STEVE BANNON. I agreed with this, because I believe (1) Sundance’s main purpose was to get his expensively bound presentation to TRUMP, (2) Sundance’s passing of the material to journalists was used as cover for this, and (3) Bannon is the perfect individual to get the information to Trump quietly.
Now don’t think that Aubergine gave away the game – these SDNY traitors have had Bannon under surveillance for a long time. However, I think they are trying to cook up a story, and busting Bannon on a Chinese billionaire’s yacht is all part of that hopeful story.
Remember – the Rosenstein-Gauhar-Weissmann DOJ was going after ME during the first two years of the Trump administration, albeit they were just trying to get me shot in certain STORES where they might gain an edge in creating a likely story. They certainly weren’t going to catch me on some China guy’s yacht. But again – THESE are the “Event People”, and THEY are the ones who create manipulative stories, both to escape punishment for their crimes, and to alter human history, creating – literally – FAKE HISTORY.
In my opinion the main brains of the INFECTION in DOJ has now moved out of main DOJ, and is located in SDNY, where it needs less cover. Weissmann is clearly freaking out, and Sundance saying he has it all figured out, and having delivered “whatever” to all kinds of people. Yeah – the CONTAGION is SKEERED REAL GOOD by the thought that Sundance might know something they didn’t cover up well enough.
SO – what does all that mean?
Conclusions
I believe that we are in for more events. I believe that it will be 60 days of a fight to the finish. I believe that the left knows it cannot win, but it will try to:
demoralize us into thinking Biden has a chance
cheat like they have never cheated before
cast enormous doubt on the election
obfuscate and tarnish the results as much as possible
try to make the Trump second term seem as illegitimate as they can
try to get the UN and especially CHINA involved to bail them out
deploy new mass psychological events
deploy false flags and MK killings timed with FBI bad news and scrutiny
try to flip people at the last minute with all kinds of lies and hoaxes
BUT HERE IS THE BIG ONE.
I believe that the left will sabotage Election Day so badly, many will choose not to go to the polls.
Thus, to make sure that we get our votes in, we need to DO IT NOW.
I therefore suggest that you vote early, by absentee ballot, to remove all possible election interference tools from the left.
I predict that you will not regret it.

UPDATE
I just got a SECOND robo-call from Donald Trump, Jr., asking us to do ABSENTEE BALLOT.
I then checked my email and messages, and YES – yesterday I got an email and a text message from PRESIDENT TRUMP, asking us to “vote the safe way” – by absentee ballot.
So check your email, text messages and phone calls. Depending on your state, the GOP may be asking you to vote absentee!
Author note: please tell me if the docs are posting for you. They aren’t for me and I need to pull the chicken out of the oven.
Oh, my, the last one of these was in late May. Well, thanks to today’s drop(s) from various places, we have new DECLAS documents courtesy of the Judiciary Committee of the United States Senate:
July 17, 2020
WASHINGTON – Today, as part of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s ongoing investigation into the Crossfire Hurricane investigation and related FISA abuses, Chairman Lindsey Graham (R- South Carolina) released two recently declassified documents that significantly undercut the reliability of the Steele dossier and the accuracy and reliability of many of the factual assertions in the Carter Page FISA applications.
“I’m very pleased the investigation in the Senate Judiciary Committee has been able to secure the declassification of these important documents,” said Chairman Graham. “I want to thank Attorney General Barr for releasing these documents and allowing the American People to judge for themselves.
“What have we learned from the release of these two documents by the Department of Justice? Number one, it is clear to me that the memo regarding the FBI interview of the primary sub-source in January 2017 should have required the system to stop and reevaluate the case against Mr. Page.
“Most importantly after this interview of the sub-source and the subsequent memo detailing the contents of the interview, it was a miscarriage of justice for the FBI and the Department of Justice to continue to seek a FISA warrant against Carter Page in April and June of 2017.
“The dossier was a critical document to justify a FISA warrant against Mr. Page and this DOJ memo clearly indicates that the reliability of the dossier was completely destroyed after the interview with the primary sub-source in January 2017. Those who knew or should have known of this development and continued to pursue a FISA warrant against Mr. Page anyway are in deep legal jeopardy in my view.
“Secondly, the comments of Peter Strzok regarding the February 14 New York Times article are devastating in that they are an admission that there was no reliable evidence that anyone from the Trump Campaign was working with Russian Intelligence Agencies in any form.
“The statements by Mr. Strzok question the entire premise of the FBI’s investigation of the Trump Campaign and make it even more outrageous that the Mueller team continued this investigation for almost two and a half years. Moreover, the statements by Strzok raise troubling questions as to whether the FBI was impermissibly unmasking and analyzing intelligence gathered on U.S. persons.
“These documents, which I have long sought, tell a damning story for anyone who’s interested in trying to find the truth behind the corrupt nature of the FBI’s investigation into the Trump campaign in 2016 and beyond.”
Thanks to acting Director of National Intelligence, Richard Grenell, a number of previously withheld behind closed doors questioning transcripts are now available for public viewing. As with many deposition type documents, they can be long, but hopefully will be informative. Here’s the list with live links.
The United States Intelligence Community (IC), at the bipartisan request of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), reviewed 53 transcripts for classification. The IC made appropriate redactions, lowering the classification level of all 53 transcripts to UNCLASSIFIED. Each transcript can be accessed by clicking on the names below.

The links are live to the documents that have been declassified. WARNING: most of them are REALLY long, as in over 80 pages, so for those whose bedtime reading is not legal documents, this thread will serve as a place to gather what the anons have been finding and sharing online in addition to what any of us find.
Please, post any findings, Tweets, images, emails, etc., found in the space below, and they will be added to future posts as the documents are made public.
As this declas effort is new, and will likely be dribbled out for proper public digestion, there will be new posts regularly sharing updates. It all depends on the volume of information, and the intensity as to whether or not this will recur daily, weekly, or as it happens.

Twitter Plugin and Manual Bypasses
As you can see by my Chillum tweet above, I am AVOIDING the use of bare Twitter URLs, because Twitter has figured out that it can disrupt our interaction and real-time comms by slowing down the display of our pages. And how is that done? By slowing down the response of the Twitter Plugin for WordPress – or at least on our horrible Trump Supremacist website.
Twitter videos may need to be posted as Twitter URLs, thus engaging the plugin. But almost everything else can be manually copied and pasted. Screenshots of Twitter posts, hosted somewhere, can be added as URLs and visible through the Twitter plugin. Even IMAGES on Twitter, can be linked here, and DISPLAYED by massaging the URLs back into normal image URLs.
For instance, here is a screenshot of a tweet (actually a retweet):
Here it is as text:
Cari Kelemen liked David ShoelessJoe@yohiobaseball· But we’re not political and we don’t use our platform to influence people Quote Tweet Twitter@Twitter · 8h You can have an edit button when everyone wears a mask
Here it is as a link which won’t turn into an embed (add a period at the end):
Here is how to fix it to make an image (remove ? on but save image extension and “dot” it on)

Now remove the asterisk:

ANYWAY, I want to THANK everybody who is helping to speed up our pages by foregoing the nice FAT tweet embeds in favor of lean, mean text and sexeh “bare images”!
Y’all are AWESOME.
OANN App
Yes, there is an OAN app. Strongly consider helping out REAL NEWS by getting it.
It will tell you what’s on OAN right now, and can also take you straight to OAN’s web content.
It’s kind of hilarious that Apple will immediately attempt to get you to install the New York Times app when you begin using OANN‘s app.
Sorry, suckas. REAL NEWS ONLY.

Retirement is Only a Thing Under Freedom
A very powerful realization is the following.
Socialism wants to OWN OUR LIVES. It COVETS that TIME and MONEY. It desires to TAKE that extra work we do so that we can retire and enjoy life for a few worn out, broken down, but WISE and GENTLE years.
Whether by Pelosi’s financial crisis used to install Obama and rob our life savings, or by Obama’s medical socialism with its death panels, or by a Chinese virus that steals our very lives above 60, or by Nursing Home Killer’s stealthy promotion of that virus, it’s the same thing.
They STEAL our…..
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
We never fully appreciated just how PROFOUND this little point really is.
Have a VERY HAPPYFourth of July, otherwise known as Independence Day.
NOTE: This is an old, unfinished article from LAST SUMMER, which dug into some troubling aspects of the origins of ANTIFA in America, and particularly the roots in academia. It is FAR from complete, and I have no desire to finish it, but I decided to publish what is there, RIGHT NOW, as ANTIFA is being declared a terrorist organization, because I believe researchers looking into ANTIFA will benefit.
ANTIFA is being HELPED by academics, and those incubator institutions and “bad shepherd” academics need to answer for what they created. THIS will help us return freedom of thought to universities, IMO, because the radical student footsoldiers of uniform leftist thought and mind control will lose their backing by Marxist and crypto-Marxist professors and administrators.
Some editorial comments are added in bold.
“This morning’s attack…was a horrific act of violence that has shaken us all.”
Whether one considers my neologism of “STANTIFA” to come from ANTIFA-encouraging, “Stef”-Halper-producing, “Two-Door”-Ford-backing STANFORD UNIVERSITY, or the notorious and frankly dubious ANTIFA-defending professor STANISLAV VYSOTSKY – who may have actually GIVEN BIRTH to Portland ANTIFA – it is all about what falls out of the following video.
EDIT: A video which was apparently REMOVED by ANTIFA-backing YouTube Menshevik Susan Wojcicki and her clan of crypto-radical enablers of the radical left.
Gabriel Nadales: I’m a former Antifa member and enough is enough — Antifa must be stopped
https://youtu.be/ojoOlwmKTGc
If you don’t have time for the video, consider this summary from the video’s page on YouTube.
EDIT: Fortunately, I kept this transcript:
The video showing Quillette reporter Andy Ngo being savagely attacked by Antifa at a demonstration in Portland, Oregon, last weekend has rocked the nation. The footage of masked thugs beating him with blunt objects and throwing “milkshakes” allegedly filled with quick-drying cement is shocking to many. But I’m not surprised by this horrific behavior—I was once behind the mask.
PORTLAND POLICE SEEK OTHERS TAKING PART IN VIOLENT ANTIFA ASSAULTS, AS MORE DETAILS OF ATTACKS REVEALED
I first became involved in Antifa in 2010 while I was in high school, and over the course of two years I participated in several demonstrations throughout Southern California. Although I never hurt anyone, I yelled obscenities, I destroyed property and I am ashamed of my actions. While I walked away from the movement over seven years ago, I have been following its growth and today’s Antifa members are far more brutal, thuggish and bold than anything I experienced. How did it get to this?
Antifa has been encouraged and allowed to thrive on our college and university campuses. Police are often forced to work with their hands behind their backs, as we saw from the footage of Ngo’s attack, and administrators have failed to hold those who commit acts of violence and intimidation accountable. We are now seeing it spill over into our communities. Antifa will only grow more aggressive if it is not stopped, and we must target it where is has found fertile ground—our college and university campuses. The seeds of this violence have been planted and are encouraged by leftist professors in the classroom.
Over the last few years, there has been a growing trend of extremist professors advocating for violence and intimidation to force leftist ideology onto society. Examples can be found from coast-to-coast:
— Mark Bray, a visiting scholar at Dartmouth College, is a staunch defendant of Antifa’s use of violence and even wrote “Anti-Fa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook,” in which he claims that ‘violence is a “legitimate response” to groups with incendiary views.’
— Then there is Assistant Professor Stanislav Vysotsky at University of Wisconsin – Whitewater who writes in an op-ed that: “On America’s Streets, Antifa’s Militant Anti-fascism Isn’t Terrorism – It’s Self-defense.”
— Professors at Purdue and Stanford Universities, have worked to create a “Campus Antifascist Network” (CAN) to bring together “anyone committed to fighting fascism.”
— Unsurprisingly, students are following the guidance of their teachers. Just a few weeks ago, Campus Reform reported that the Autonomous Student Network at the University of Texas Austin threatened to doxx incoming first-year students if they join Young Conservatives of Texas or Turning Point USA chapters.
Make no mistake, Antifa’s violence is being fueled by professors in the classroom who incite their students to enact political violence against others. That is not preparing the next generation of leaders, it’s preparing the next generation of thugs. Universities ca……
Gabriel Nadales, alleged former ANTIFA member
There is more in the video, and I encourage you to watch and read it (the text appears as captions IN the video).
The above video finally prompted me to make this post, rather than just make comments to the effect of what you are about to read, as I have been doing.
I have been sitting on some explosive research which – in my opinion – backs up what this person is saying – that university “professors” are the ones who are actually behind ANTIFA. In fact, I believe there is circumstantial evidence that Portland ANTIFA was actually ginned up by the very same communists who are pushing the propaganda meme of:
“Trump supporter” equals
“white & nationalist” equals
“white nationalist” equals
“white supremacist
It’s a rather cunning meme, and to see this meme being PUSHED into the American law enforcement community by an ALLEGED CRIMINOLOGIST is – quite frankly – shocking.
Speaking of law enforcement, there is ANOTHER THING which pushed me to make this post – today’s news about an ANTIFA fire-bomber “martyring” himself at an ICE facility, and now being LAUDED by ANTIFA THUGS.
[EDIT: Tweet gone but residue stuck in WordPress – saving as an image in case the above remainder is lost.]
There is a lot of breaking news about Willem van Spronsen, and before I get on with this, I call on ALL HONEST RESEARCHERS to begin looking for connections of him to any of the following:
Russian expats and descendants in Washington State
Known communists or “red diaper” families
European ANTIFA and other global anarchists
Portland ANTIFA
Stanislav Vysotsky or his various contacts in ANTIFA or academia
Professors, grad students, and other potential Seattle-area “ANTIFA creators” starting in 2006 – particularly in 2007-2010 – until the present time
“Friends” who encouraged van Spronsen’s martyrdom complex, possibly by regular phone calls of consistent length
You will understand WHY I am suggesting these things, by the END of this post.
The fact that ANTIFA is now clearly being ginned up to “defend open borders” – the same open borders that are being rushed by RUSSIA-CHINA-CUBA-VENEZUELA-backed migrants – tells me that this is INTERNATIONAL – that ANTIFA in America has OVERSEAS ORIGINS.
Mandy and I have discussed the appearance of ANTIFA in America, and I expounded on two theories of it – (1) that the German, Stalinist, KPD-connected ANTIFA of the 1930’s never really went away, and (2) that it died out after World War II, and was ginned up anew in the United States. In that discussion, I postulated that European anarchists may have provided some form of continuity and encouragement to the early movement in America. Indeed, one frequently sees pictures of VIOLENT EUROPEAN ANTIFA being posted either mistakenly, or as a kind of disinformation, in discussions of American ANTIFA.
If that sub-theory of European ANTIFA providing a bridge is correct, then violent ANTIFA activist Willem van Spronsen seems like a potential fit.
AND – if Willem van Spronsen was a LINK between Soviet / Communist backers of ANTIFA and its origins in the United States – as in maybe Willem van Spronsen was a WITNESS or POTENTIAL WITNESS – well, sure would be convenient for those backers if he DIED. Right? And maybe was a martyr for the cause at the same time?
You starting to see this?
So let’s begin. The discussion will take two parts. The first part centers on ANTIFA violence in general, and Willem van Spronsen in particular. The second part concerns Portland ANTIFA, its origins, and its close relationship with Stanislav Vysotsky.
Because this article – excellent journalism, I might add – received IMMEDIATE push-back from ANTIFA and allied socialist forces, when it appeared, I am frankly surprised it’s still around. Since it will very likely be pulled down soon by leftists, once I expose it, I have made sure to locate an archived copy:
While this article provides an EXCELLENT window into ANTIFA and its enemies in late 2009, the real importance, is that it demonstrates how closely current ANTIFA defender Stanislav Vysotsky was working with the group when it was still quite young:
Rose City Antifa was founded in 2007, when anti-racists organized to shut down a meeting of the neo-Nazi Hammerskin Nation set for the Sherwood Elks Lodge (see “Skin Cancer,” WW, Oct. 3, 2007). The group posts cards and fliers at the Red Black Cafe, the Black Rose Collective Bookstore and other places where anarchists and the far-left gather, but its total membership is unknown.
On Saturday, Sept. 19, the group set up a recruitment table at a punk concert in North Portland benefiting the volunteer group Portland Books to Prisoners. Stanislav Vysotsky, a Willamette University sociology professor who studies anti-racist groups, was at the table laying out anti-fascist literature next to a sign that said “Rose City Antifa.”
Vysotsky denied he’s a member of the group. But he defended its tactics in an interview with WW.
Vysotsky says publicly outing one’s enemies—including publishing their home addresses and pressuring their employers to fire them—is a widely accepted practice by progressive social movements. (It’s also used by the right wing, which publishes addresses of abortion doctors on far-right websites.)
“The strategy is to shut them down.” Vysotsky says. “Someone can’t be active if they are out looking for a job, and homes are their base of operation. If you put yourself in the shoes of a movement member, there is very much a logic to this.”
My impression, reading this article, is that it was simply good, balanced, old-school journalism, digging for small facts and larger issues on both sides of the natural controversy of the story.
And – clearly – that was going to get it in trouble.
The Willamette Weekly article, published on September 22, 2009, received a published response, two days later, on September 24.
I simply let these articles stand for themselves. It is obvious that the reporter of the first article, at the time of the reporting AND the writing, was at least motivated to ASK if Stanislav Vysotsky was in fact a member of Rose City ANTIFA, taking note of (and clearly refusing to spike) the fact that Vysotsky was seeming to help the group hand out flyers.
Let the facts speak for themselves.
Sadly, I can only get a limited amount of information about Vysotsky and his academic writings. I don’t have the massive academic resources of a professor (it’s all very “pay to play”), nor do I have the commercial information resources of a journalist. I pretty much have the same thing as you all – an increasingly censored internet, controlled by the leftists who control SEARCH.
However, I am going to share whatever solid information I CAN get, in hopes that others with more resources take up the case. There is enough here to see that:
“Portland, we have a problem.“
For starters, Vysotsky’s curriculum vitae is – quite frankly – damning, in terms of his time in Portland. Timeline his arrival and academic history, and you will see the rise of ANTIFA in Portland correlating very strongly with those things.
Because there is some risk that it will be taken down, I have preserved the evidence as images:
There is also a true wealth of academic references. Because I refuse to buy into the bizarre alternative universe of “ANTIFA-think” propaganda as academia, which gerrymanders reality into an assortment of racial and historical grievances (which just happen to advance Soviet communism in America, but please don’t notice THAT), you won’t even see me arguing with “Vysotsky-think”, other than to state the following:
it is ALARMING that Stalinist thinking is being uploaded into CRIMINOLOGY
I suspect Vysotsky’s writings may ORIGINATE this thinking in academia
the primary effect looks like NORMALIZATION of “ANTIFA-think” in ACADEMIA
the secondary effect looks like NORMALIZATION of “ANTIFA-think” in NEWS
The latter point comes from the fact that Vysotsky gets interviewed by the news media, and the result is a bizarre framing of radical leftist talking points as “news”. Or, if not news, opinion.
I really don’t have to say anything here. There are people who buy into this stuff, and to me it’s just as contorted and nonsensical as the ginned-up opposite of the national socialists.
Socialists – national socialists – anarchists – international socialists – democratic socialists – WHATEVER. I let them speak for themselves. and I really don’t need to do much more.
READ THE ARTICLE. NORMALIZATION OF RADICALIZATION.
So THERE YOU HAVE IT.
Now – this is not all the information we have. There is MUCH more on Stanislav Vysotsky’s background that is, quite frankly, very damning, but we lack the resources to get a SECOND SOURCE VALIDATION which would pin things down. Thus, we encourage journalists with MORE RESOURCES to publish what THEY have, and we may then chose to VALIDATE if our information agrees.
Thanks to acting Director of National Intelligence, Richard Grenell, a number of previously withheld behind closed doors questioning transcripts are now available for public viewing. As with many deposition type documents, they can be long, but hopefully will be informative. Here’s the list with live links.
The United States Intelligence Community (IC), at the bipartisan request of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), reviewed 53 transcripts for classification. The IC made appropriate redactions, lowering the classification level of all 53 transcripts to UNCLASSIFIED. Each transcript can be accessed by clicking on the names below.

The links are live to the documents that have been declassified. WARNING: most of them are REALLY long, as in over 80 pages, so for those whose bedtime reading is not legal documents, this thread will serve as a place to gather what the anons have been finding and sharing online in addition to what any of us find.
Please, post any findings, Tweets, images, emails, etc., found in the space below, and they will be added to future posts as the documents are made public.
As this declas effort is new, and will likely be dribbled out for proper public digestion, there will be new posts regularly sharing updates. It all depends on the volume of information, and the intensity as to whether or not this will recur daily, weekly, or as it happens.
