Hanukkah for the year 2022 is celebrated/ observed on sundown of December 18 ending at sundown on Monday, December 26.
Hanukkah is an eight-day Jewish festival with the first day known as Chanukah, Festival of Lights, and Feast of Dedication. In the Jewish calendar, the first day of Hanukkah is on the 25th day of the month of Kislev. In the Gregorian calendar, Hanukkah may occur between late November to late December.
Why do Jewish holidays start at nighttime?
According to the Torah, the story of creation in Genesis says “And it was evening, and it was morning day one”, “And it was evening, and it was morning; the second day”, thus night comes before day. So for the Jewish calendar all days begin at nightfall and end the next day at nightfall including holidays.
Days to Hanukkah 2022
Sunday, December 18th is day number 352 of the 2022 calendar year with 14 days until the start of Hanukkah 2022.
SO – Hanukkah starts on the night of December 18th this year.
You can start celebrating by enjoying this music video!
If you want to learn more about how to actually light a menorah (which apparently isn’t a menorah, technically, even though everybody calls it that), go here:
And left to right, right to left, add lit candles, subtract lit candles – there is a certain amount of flexibility, although some aspects are basically requisite (kosher).
Hanukkah reminds me of Melania, Ivanka, and Jared, in particular, because the ladies always looked so nice in those Hanukkah pictures from the White House.
Enjoy this gallery of photos!
One of the first images from the White House website!
Trump and Melania at their first White House Hanukkah celebration.
I always love this picture!
Ivanka and Jared and family on the first night of Hanukkah.
Apple and Android beating the media to the story!
Look at those well-behaved kids!
Arabella and Joseph lighting the first candle!

So – there you have it!
Whatever your faith, enjoy the Festival of Lights!
I had hoped that this year, we would have a GREAT holiday season, like we almost experienced last year, other than the Phony Fake Impeachment featuring Polident and Pencilneck.
And then, suddenly, I realized that the commies have made EVERY YEAR a kind of hell for our side. But LAST YEAR, lacking the China Virus – their biological grinch – they failed really miserably.
President Trump and First Lady Melania had, in 2019, what was likely THE BEST Hanukkah celebration of the First Trump Term!
President Trump looked awesome, and Melania looked so good, the Jealous Left HOWLED in outrage, not quite sure what to criticize, but they did!
This year, it was interesting. The celebration was a day early (evening of December 9), and President Trump only made a late appearance. Some Fake News even LIED and said he didn’t appear, then did “updates” later to admit that he DID appear.
President Donald Trump spent his Wednesday White House Hanukkah party talking about the “miracle” he’s searching for after the November election.
“The Jewish people have endured a lot over the centuries but always overcame the most impossible situations,” Trump said after walking downstairs from the residence wearing a coat. “Miracles are possible. Maybe we’ll see one in the near future. Yes, we’re not giving up, and we’ll keep fighting to ensure four more years.”
NOW – listen to TWO videos from this little gathering, included in the article. They are VERY hopeful. It is really worth listening to their UPBEAT TONE!
The Jewish people have endured a lot over the centuries but always overcame the most impossible situations.
Miracles are possible maybe we'll see one in the near future.
VIDEO: Trump tells the crowd at the Hanukkah party that with the help of “certain very important people, if they have wisdom and if they have courage, we are going to win this election.” — remarks followed with loud chants of “four more years.” pic.twitter.com/FjCyFGOqPC
But you know – here is the thing. Here is the REAL Hanukkah gift!
Another HISTORIC breakthrough today! Our two GREAT friends Israel and the Kingdom of Morocco have agreed to full diplomatic relations – a massive breakthrough for peace in the Middle East!
I truly believe that GOD IS WITH US, and will not abandon those who are faithful and serve His cause!
Matthew 5:9
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”
Do you need a GODLY reason to WIN THIS THING?
We can elect TRUMP to FOUR MORE YEARS – and finish the job of securing peace and safety for Israel (and AMERICA – you know – as in AMERICA FIRST!) in these dangerous times, or we can stop HALF-WAY and go back to ENDLESS WARS with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
I have been on the Martin Gugino story since nearly the beginning, when I created this screenshot from an original video at exactly [TIMESTAMP]: Fri 05 Jun 2020 12∶52∶17 AM EDT.
I then blew it up 3X and focused in, taking another screenshot of the expanded screenshot, at Fri 05 Jun 2020 01∶02∶34 AM EDT.
From that moment on, #GuginoGate has been a FIGHT in my battlespace, and has escalated to international confrontation – as well it should.
THERE IS NO BACKING DOWN FROM THE TRUTH.
Not for this Wolf.
I had hoped to do a definitive piece on GuginoGate, and while planning it, I realized there would likely be many small pieces, missed at first, to be added later. THUS, I’m going to steal one of Daughn’s favorite tricks, and present this as a TIMELINE. Timelines are easy to update, yet stay coherent and relevant. They present the full story, and they are useful like crazy to other researchers – as was my early observation simply QUESTIONING the Gugino narrative, and providing a visual reason WHY.
So here we go – a TIMELINE OF GUGINOGATE. All times are Eastern Daylight Time (NYC).
I will start not at the moment of Gugino’s actions, but rather at the point where the PUBLIC became aware of them.
UPDATE
Thanks to a great comment by Dep Pat, now an article, I have decided to get this thing back out of the Drafts folder and publish it. WE have the goods. NOW is the time to get them out.
Click on the article link to see how GuginoGate was revealed to be a great example of REALITY HACKING.
I have preserved this tweet as an image, in case it is ever deleted.
If you go to look at WBFO’s managed timeline of replies to this tweet, you will see *EXCEPTIONAL* grooming of the responses. Only a very few, selected responses remain. Only a very few, very weak tweets contradicting the “MSM narrative” of Gugino are seen, and effective responses to those tweets are left in place. Absolutely no replies suggesting fraud or trickery are seen, even though (see below) we know that such responses began within a few hours elsewhere.
Indeed, among the early responses, only this thread of updates and replies by WBFO itself remain, ENDING IN A FUNDRAISING PITCH.
Note that the political payday began IMMEDIATELY – that night – June 4. This creates a new question – were WBFO and other media left-activists ready to pounce on the Police Commissioner with this “reporting”? Worse still, was there any collusion with Democrat government officials – possibly deniable?
Note the close association of WBFO and NPR (Twitter profile logo). This will become extremely relevant.
11:42 PM
Kim Dotcom tweets about the Desmond/Gugino footage, characterizing it as “attempting to shake hands”. This is the video from WBFO that I analyzed.
A peaceful man who just wanted to shake hands with Police officers, a gesture of respect, was pushed to the ground, smashed his head on the concrete, blood coming from his ears, unconscious, and Police just keeps walking like nothing happened. Insane USA. https://t.co/ApFigpMqcx
Here is the video’s introductory image, which shows the initial phone positioning quite well, with excellent resolution.
JUNE 5
12:25 AM
New York Times is already fronting the story.
Two police officers in Buffalo, New York, were suspended after shoving a protester in this incident that was caught on video. An official said the man was hospitalized with a head injury.
As a follower of Kim Dotcom on Twitter, I see his late tweet of the WBFO/NPR footage.
I watch the footage for the handshake, but it’s clearly not a handshake, because something is in his extended right hand. Interestingly, it appears that his hand and arm motions are designed to appear plausible in TWO NARRATIVES:
Trying to shake hands with two cops
Trying to “do something” with the cop’s belts
I will come back to this later.
My initial theory is that Gugino is FILMING the cop weaponry, so that ANTIFA or other [probably violent] leftists engaging the police can see what the police are carrying in real time. I’m also thinking that this is a form of “bird-dogging” as described by associates and underlings of Robert Creamer, such as Scott Foval, in undercover videos from Project Veritas. The waving at the cop belt is meant to provoke the police, since they are trained to NEVER let people grab at their belts, and to react swiftly if people DO grab (or even point closely) at their belts.
1:30 AM
I tweet about my observations.
Watch how ANTIFA or some other violent group gets REAL TIME intel on cop armaments, and BIRD-DOGS THEM at the same time. They send an old guy up to engage the marching cops, and he walks up to them filming. At the right moment, he makes his move, and films tac belt & weaponry. pic.twitter.com/33hVpPsqXm
I also point out that Kim Dotcom calling this “offering to shake hands” was quite disingenuous.
Kim Dotcom tried to pass this off as the bird-dogger walking up to shake hands with the cops, but it was pretty clear that he had something in his hand. Not cool that Dotcom tried to gaslight us.
Note by what I say in the second tweet, that I have at this point ALREADY seen theories that the blood on the ground was somehow STAGED, but I am not contending for those theories – just mentioning them.
2:00 AM
Sundance is already spotting the problematic hand-motions – one way or another they are “not innocuous”. Sundance is leaning toward a new theory – radio skimming.
Watch the old guy's right hand closely. This was not innocuous. He's attempting to either record the police tactical belt, and/or skim the radio… Watch it a few times; you'll see. https://t.co/eV3GaoWRqR
Sundance’s Twitter post includes a long thread outlining the radio-skimming theory. My initial reaction is to admit the radio-skimming theory as being, OVERALL, just as reasonable as the tactical-belt-video-capture theory.
7:00 AM
By daybreak, I’m already receiving flak on this, which will grow to be more than I’ve gotten in YEARS. Example:
Nothing wrong with me – and I don't engage in YOUR malicious pretense that a bird-dogging hoaxer trying to score phony media points is some innocent old gent. You THINK with your feelings – your "good lies". Yeah, you're a "good person" to socialism, but you promote LIES. pic.twitter.com/wSGfwDTBoq
I found it interesting at the time, that Buffalo’s mayor was taking steps to keep the police placated and to stay on their side. Clearly he was not ready to go down the road of some Democrat mayors, turning on their police forces.
Alert viewers of the video are already pointing out the suspicious use of medical tubing on the inner mask of Gugino’s double mask, and positing more strongly that it was a STAGED event.
Gugino is also spotted talking on his phone soon afterward. This is normal for a simple bonk of the head – it is absolutely not normal for blood running out of the ear. Something is wrong here.
Note that the Twitter user who spotted the tubing is being responded to with the artful deception that “it’s just two masks”. This is a partial truth – yes, there is a second mask – and it’s clear on closer inspection that the “second mask” is a real but modified mask that is used as a plausible architecture to get tubing into play and then get it to the ears.
This is why it’s important to understand how PLAUSIBILITY is used as a weapon by the left, to create compelling LIES.
6:00 PM
Sundance posts a DEFINITIVE article on Gugino, collecting numerous threads, which is then used as background by all researchers, including (undoubtedly) OAN. This will prove critical later.
Sundance’s article includes the RED MEAT PHOTO of Gugino talking with video submitter Mike Desmond, a reporter for WBFO/NPR before the incident, but does not identify Desmond as the man in the picture.
JUNE 7
There is now a MASSIVE online response, including both AI bots and live leftists. Whoever or whatever is noting here that Gugino’s fall does not look natural, that user is double-teamed by deniers – one live, one likely a bot.
This is the day that all hell breaks loose, and attacks between corporate media entities begin.
OAN’s Pearson Sharp does a 5-minute segment on Gugino – this creates a MASSIVE frenzy on the left.
8:30 AM
Trump tweets about Gugino, with attribution to OANN TV coverage, and the left descends into paroxysms of angst.
Buffalo protester shoved by Police could be an ANTIFA provocateur. 75 year old Martin Gugino was pushed away after appearing to scan police communications in order to black out the equipment. @OANN I watched, he fell harder than was pushed. Was aiming scanner. Could be a set up?
MSNBC Producer Kyle Griffin attacks OAN reporter Pearson Sharp with “Muh Russia” conspiracy theory angle.
The OANN reporter behind the false report that led to Trump's tweet is a Russian national who also writes for Kremlin-owned Sputnik, according to The Daily Beast.https://t.co/ugqxgK6Igz
A hit job on Trump, attempting to discredit Trump’s tweet by linking it to Sundance and The Conservative Treehouse, is launched by Will Sommer of The Daily Beast.
I cautiously ask for more information about who Gugino is talking to in the photo of him with Mike Desmond. I don’t yet realize who it is – I think it’s somebody I know in a completely different context, which would constitute a major national security problem.
If anybody has more or better pictures or video of the bystander he's talking to in this photo, please post. pic.twitter.com/57w6ShSrot
Trump's theory that injured Buffalo protester Martin Gugino is a high-tech antifa spy comes from The Conservative Treehouse — one of the most bizarre, but surprisingly influential, parts of the conservative internet. https://t.co/r3vQy97uEx
I am already starting to realize – in part thanks to Will Sommer’s criticisms of the “wanding” theories (quite ironic) that:
Gugino’s “wanding” was clearly provocative / malevolent in nature, and
Kim Dotcom shilling on “handshake offer” is also very bogus, but
theories of it are sketchy and could be wrong, so
what if BOTH wanding and handshake lie are a kind of Hegelian misdirection, meaning
wanding was designed to provoke the cops and create misdirection, and
the “bridge too far” of stage fakery on blood is the real hoax?
Thus, I began a reply thread which led me to the key experiment. Here, I am only describing a “gedanken experiment” – this will later become an ACTUAL experiment.
Exactly. At first I thought a blood-to-ear hoax was a bridge too far, but I can actually make the trick work with stuff I have on hand RIGHT NOW. It's actually very ingenious.
The too-fast, too-soon, over-and-done flow is key. Flow is from a static pool, driven by gravity.
cc: @TheLastRefuge2. Here is how it works. An inner mask w/ med tubing ear loops creates plausibility for med tubing. That inner mask holds a thin bladder of blood, probably from a lefty nurse draw, with 2 openings at the top *when standing* – 1 to ear tube, 1 to air inlet.
It is the act of falling itself to a back-down horizontal position that activates blood flow. Ear is above chin before fall. Ear is below chin after fall. This can also explain somebody's observation that blood appeared in the ear in one frame BEFORE HITTING THE GROUND.
The beauty of this device is that there is nothing to it other than the inner mask w/ hidden pouch – THE ENTIRE DEVICE – easily separated and pocketed as a bloody mess, then tossed in medical rubbish. It is almost undetectable, its function camouflaged by the tubing ear loops.
The whole thing is a stage prop, hidden by 1.5 masks and plausible ear loops, almost fool-proof because the mechanism is so simple – GRAVITY. If the drainage is complete, even the emptied inner mask arouses no suspicions if the pouch is well designed and concealed btw. layers.
We will come back to this later, when I add a tweet about the ACTUAL experiment, done because somebody wanted me to do a video demo.
Clearly, I am not going to do a doxxing video through Menshevik YouTube, but I did something even better – a HOME EXPERIMENT that anybody can do.
7:30 PM
OANN tweets about their Gugino coverage.
Startling new details reveal Martin Gugino may be an anarchist with ties to radical left-wing terrorist group Antifa. Video from before the event also suggests he was actually trying to provoke police. One America's @PearsonSharp reports.@realDonaldTrumphttps://t.co/gqnqXJje99
This is when I realize the full extent – the ingenious nature of the stagecraft. Follow along.
12:30 AM
I just did an experiment that worked perfectly, so you can prove it to yourself.
Take about 18-22 inches of 1/4-inch clear plastic tubing. Hold the two ends UP, together, and pour water into one end until the tubing fills with water. Keep the two ends both pointed UP.
The tubing will curl to help hold itself in place. Placing your chin in the center of the "U", curl the two ends behind your ears and over the tops of them. The water will still fill the tubing, but the tubing should hold on like you're wearing glasses. Reverse it if not.
On a waterproof floor like linoleum, fall *smartly* backward, leading with the side where you want the water to spill. The acts of looking and leading will direct the water to that side. Fall all the way back, butt, hips, back, head, with head hitting and resting on the floor.
Stay down for a few seconds, then get up. Look at the floor. There should be a small puddle of water of the same size and shape as was seen next to Gugino's ear.
This method is even better, because no special bladder is needed – it uses the delivery tubing as the reservoir.
Given that this method is so simple and elegant, fits the path of the "inner mask" tubing in the video, and could easily be practiced, plus it leaves so little evidence after the liquid drains, this is now my preferred theory – inner mask lower tubing section as reservoir.
Sure did. Just remember – lying about medical conditions is – COUGH – child's play (Munchhausen syndrome). What is even more remarkable is that an ADULT can do it *through* a child (Munchhausen by proxy).
Head injuries are very easy to malinger on – as easy as walking off.
My buddy Michael then swoops in with the napalm. Then I TAUNT on defunding NPR. Watch how ShadowGate defends, including “pretending not to know” what I’m talking about, but then gets blown away by multiple logical thinkers.
.@OANN needs to stick to this story – it's going to get YUGE. There is a reason CANKLES jumped in. The left knows that the Trump lion and OAN has their favorite pet dog by the tail.
HINT – where did you *always* hear the word "DEFUND" before it was "defund the police"?
I think the big story is THIS GUY. I initially thought I knew who Gugino was talking to, before the incident. If it would have been that person, it would have been a big shocker, and would have had serious IC implications. HUGE story. Very dangerous. So I asked. pic.twitter.com/t0K1kx48CS
Somebody answered my question somewhere – they said it was the same guy who shot the video. Mike Desmond of WBFO/NPR. And oddly he does look like who I thought it was, but only from the side profile.https://t.co/t2h3JHbC00pic.twitter.com/LIIoqCphXZ
THIS is why the story is so radioactive, IMO, and OAN is taking so much heat, undeservedly.
If there IS hoaxing and/or left-rad comms activity involved here, this reporter becomes a MATERIAL WITNESS at the very least – and it could be much worse.
There must be consequences for hoaxing at all levels, from Ferguson to Jussie Smollett to #GuginoGate. We particularly need to scare off hoaxing designed to be amplified by the media. The idea that it's "just a prank" is serving as an escape clause that needs erasure.
Good grief, to say nothing of the "Muh Russia" Hoax which tried to FRAME A PRESIDENT. Hillary Clinton is STILL using that one! If there are no laws which touch MA CANKLES for her role in THE HOAX, then there need to be new laws written AFTER the #ObamaGate hoaxers go down.
Agreed. BIG. They're deploying a lot of what appear to be AI psych-bots. I think this is what @laralogan may be talking about. The DEM PAC admits to AI bots boosting anti-@realDonaldTrump, but I believe they are also subtly acting against our side, too.https://t.co/RubVnsuYuH
PS – I just did a test of this theory using 21 inches of 1/4-inch plastic tubing filled with water, and it worked perfectly to deliver a Gugino-sized puddle, so I'm able to remove the reservoir and just use the tubing, leaving almost no evidence.https://t.co/FqfgIpjZvv
A critical post. The blood looked “off” to me – I was not alone. Note also that Sundance’s tweet is a DIRECT response to Trump’s tweet, made the previous day.
ER tech for yrs. Many red flags on this that make no sense from start. But dead giveaway w no getting around it and no legit reason for it -WRONG COLOR BLOOD. Not even touching on other red flags this was staged. Wrong color blood=fake.
Others are calling out problems with the blood hoax, but in the end, it’s all the same. Honest skeptics vs. paid ShadowGate insincere questioners.
JUNE 11
The Atlantic publishes a hit piece on OAN’s Chanel Rion, stepping up the game by a flanking strike on OAN’s most well-known and recognizable reporter. Note that Rion was mercilessly effective on Biden’s Ukraine corruption, and thus the Biden campaign is part of this strike.
I immediately link this back to Pearson Sharp’s reporting on GuginoGate.
Here's 'sup. @OANN's @PearsonSharp is on #Gugino like white on rice, and the left is freakin' cuz that NPR reporter who filmed was (IMO) likely in on the hoax. IMO the belt-waving w/ phone was phony provocation – media blood hoax was goal.
You can see that my thinking has evolved at this point in time. “The Wave” – meaning Gugino waving his phone at the cop’s belt – may have been totally ineffective and PHONY in terms of being either filming or skimming – only FBI investigation can really ascertain the truth there. However, the MOTION of “the wave” was likely to have been VERY intentional – a means to bait the police into a blood hoax.
Note also that Twitter highly restricted engagement on this tweet.
11:30 PM
The Daily Caller publishes sourced (but sources not revealed) allegations that Gugino suffered skull fracture and brain injury (can’t walk), per his lawyer. I do not see this.
75-Year-Old Protester Pushed To Ground By Buffalo Police Suffered Brain Injury, Lawyer Says https://t.co/PH8qC1zL4i
In the morning, Pearson Sharp issues a devastating televised response to the “mainstream” Fake News media, challenging them to point out any factual inaccuracies in his reporting.
I realize that the “dual plausiblity” of the motion at the cop belts was not just intended to fraudulently provoke the police, but to actually provide a phony narrative of “shaking hands”. This raises the question of whether Kim Dotcom was tricked into supporting the phony handshake narrative by a phony tip, or whether he was a knowing part of the scam.
I lean to KNOWING at the point of editing this timeline.
JUNE 15
The relationship of Desmond and Gugino gets major scrutiny. It turns out to be much deeper than just chatting by chance.
When I started at the Courier-Express, I sat next to Mike Desmond, who took that video in Buffalo. Turns out the man at the center of it is Mike's high school classmate.https://t.co/pzttqSjEaj
I immediately question this information, which came through Gugino’s attorney. My suspicion is a tiny possible fracture and malingering very typical of union worker’s comp scams.
Gugino is a SCAMMER. REALITY CHECK. After all these lies and scammy statements, take nothing from these people at face value.
I'm betting Gugino and Desmond are both going to the mat on lies to protect NPR from the hoax. Gugino waved hand like failed handshake (far, Kim Dotcom shill) AND skimmer wave (close, for cops). Provoked a shove, tubing rig obvious and works (check my timeline).
I posit that the Brady piece is “cushioning the fall” for Desmond and Gugino.
This might be termed "cushioning the fall". They did this when it turned out that Loretta Lynch was a family friend of Eric Holder. Before the news of that scandal got out through Orly Taitz, the leftist media pimped a fluff version of the relationship through Chicago Tribune.
NPR gets into trouble AGAIN in a different incident. Follow the thread.
This story went from bad to worse. First, local news (@WLK) said police were interested in interviewing a driver who struck a protester. @WLKY purposefully omitted the first part of the video showing protesters attacking the driver.pic.twitter.com/kUnw7BlpTb
This is when I set aside timeline construction. Tweets about my experiments were not added yet – so I just added them now in preparation to publish. I did the BELOW yesterday (9/3/20).
Post-GuginoGate NPR Follies
Once I realized just how FAKE NPR could be – how DEFUNDING NPR is not only a duty, but a requirement – in fact, how PROSECUTING NPR is a more rational response – I began to see how NPR cheats and lies everywhere.
For example, NPR / PBS put out propaganda – a “wear a mask” “public service” announcement – which literally LIED about the hypoxic effects of masks. That one involved a soy-boy saying masks don’t affect oxygen, while showing a PPE-encrusted doctor in a mask, who is showing an oximeter reading “99” and shrugging.
That is not SCIENCE – that’s PROPAGANDA. I have done the experiments myself, and shown that masks not only lower blood oxygen in a periodic way which alternates with “recovery breathing” – they result in cumulative cognitive defecit.
See my results, and how you can demonstrate it to yourself, HERE:
Do the experiment yourself – I challenge you. THAT is science.
All this – HIDDEN by NPR / PBS – because the politics of “wear a mask” and “obey stupid orders” is more important.
But wait – there’s more.
NPR has now enlisted the great (and I still love the guy) Rick Steves to do a documentary about the dangers of fascism, based on his travelogues from Europe – which are always wonderful.
Full disclosure – I have a Rick Steves section on my bookshelf. He’s a hero, even if he’s a bit of a lefty and “political pilgrim”. So he’s getting a lot of benefit of the doubt here.
Steves’ point about “leaving the baggage at home” is actually a very good one. Understanding other places and cultures is immensely facilitated by doing this. HOWEVER, I find that REMEMBERING what my baggage looks like and what is in it, allows me to decipher and understand even more deeply.
Now – let me just start off by saying that I WELCOME but have absolutely no deficiency of warnings about the dangers of “fascism”. I was raised on stories of Hitler, to the point that almost everybody who knows me, but who doesn’t believe that oppressive government is a danger in America, says the exact same thing, in these exact words – “Your mother brainwashed you about Hitler!”
Oh – people have no idea. It’s not just “Hitler is bad, and it could easily happen to America, too.” It was WAY beyond that. Someday, I’ll get into the details.
One of the most important ideas, however, was this. Whenever I probed my mother for a way to stop “Hitler or anything like him” from coming to America – asking my mother WHY Germany allowed Hitler to take power, she was resolute. It was ALWAYS the same answer – it was because of communists rioting in the streets. Communist violence was what was needed to make the German people “reach” for the stupid solution of Hitler.
Anybody who thinks “Trump is Hitler” is an idiot, and a victim of propaganda. Trump’s own daughter is married to an orthodox Jew, who Trump trusts like a son. SPARE ME.
Oh, trust me – I know who the “dumb but still somewhat cunning” real Nazis are. I keep my eye on those people on Gab, and maybe you understand why. But those are not the real danger now. The real danger is their antithesis – the people who are also victims of different propaganda – who DREAM of conflict with an antithesis that they themselves are “tasked to create”, albeit somewhat unknowingly.
Extremism gins up its antithesis. Smart, cunning, and devious extremism gins up its antithesis FASTER and more obviously, to promote itself.
Trump’s “both sides / both fine and not fine” recognition evidences true understanding.
Biden’s furthering of the “fine people hoax” evidences devious understanding. Biden knowingly promotes the furthering of violent and destabilizing extremism.
The Rick Steves documentary fails to fully understand the role of international communism – socialism – leftism – whatever – in generating fascism. Absolutely NOT MENTIONED. And there is no way he could have gotten an NPR gig on this if he DID mention it, but – well – that’s life in media land.
Communism tries to sell its own paltry benefits and massive downside under the guise of “anti-fascism” – in America’s case, before there really IS any fascism. Again, “ginning up” or “spinning up” an antithesis is what they’re doing.
I hope you all are beginning to see the danger. Calling out an alternative form of socialism, set up as an empowering antithetical co-target by a different form of socialism, is simply a dirty trick designed to work on “feeble” minds – where feeble are people who may be highly educated and even clearly smart, but who have not been exposed to ALL FORMS of socialist trickery.
“He did it!” “No, HE did it!” “No, SHE did it!” And thus, true popular government is DESTROYED.
It is very UNSAFE for us to condemn “fascism” without condemning the communism/socialism which promotes other useful front movements like “anarchism” (violence) and “fascism” (national socialism) as TOOLS.
If we condemn fascism and not communism, we are DECEIVED.
So – back to the story – Rick Steves is now a TOOL of what I call our new “anti-national” socialists. Sure, he’s very much on the money talking about the dangers of fascism, but (1) it ain’t Trump, and (2) he’s missing the CAUSE of fascism that will gin up new/old forms of fascism over and over and over again, so that we play whack-a-mole with EFFECTS instead of CAUSES.
NOTE – Rick Steves never SAYS Trump is fascist, but there is a kind of “pregnant vacuum” that sells DVDs, let’s just say. It may even be that Steves editorially REFUSED to point at Trump, and I would applaud him for that, because the REAL fascist is going to be somebody else. But still, it’s very clear that his documentary will fuel the thinking of “Trump = Hitler” types.
That is just wrong. NEOCONS strike me was the best and most fertile ground for a real form of American fascism. But it could even be something else – an emergent alt-neocon wing which “gets” the role of communists but does not “get” restraint and rule of law – which embraces draconian measures against leftists. THAT is where Rick Steves is very useful for people to BONK THEMSELVES ON THE HEAD and say “am I embracing fascist methods against other forms of socialism?”
Same problem, a different way.
We have to keep things in BALANCE, which is HARD. If you’re thinking that Chris Wray’s statement about going after criminal behavior and not ideology is dumb, think again. He gets heaps of praise from me for that one. He GETS the DANGERS. And it is dangerous.
And yes, I could add CHURCHES, SATANISTS, MASONS, BANKERS, ROYALS, and other groups [COUGH] to this drama, particularly in Europe, where transnational groups have always been at an advantage – or disadvantage, in times of persecution – but then we get into a level of complexity that we don’t need right now. Let’s stick to POLITICS and PROXIMATE CAUSES.
Bottom line – ideologically – NPR = ANTIFA. Watch the Rick Steves programming – you will see exactly what I’m saying. The script does everything to glorify “antifascist” as an ideal. That’s dangerously close to ANTIFA, for y’all paying attention. It’s “armchair Antifa propaganda” for liberal PBS viewers.
I know that’s hard to accept, but if you’re having difficulty, then try NPR = KPD.
Think of it this way. WOLF here is an “anti-fascist”. But I’m not ANTIFA, and I refuse to virtue signal on this without anti-virtue-signaling the other way, to media denigration, as an anti-communist.
It’s time for the PEOPLE to put a stop to this manipulative nonsense.
European-born political extremism serving their traditional elites has no place in America. Americans have long felt REPULSION at hoaxing, and it’s time to admit, that repulsion is NOT a bad thing.
Maybe the “common wisdom” seeded to us that “if fascism comes to America, it will be called Americanism” was a LIE fed to us by the ANTI-NATIONAL LEFT and ENEMIES OF AMERICA.
Forget WHO said it. Human authority itself is a kind of lie.
When is reporting on leftist DEFENSE a form of wrap-up smear? Well, probably when something is so damaging to the left, they actually have to defend on it. Whatever.
For the record, Schiff is married and his wife is “not unattractive”. She’s named Eve, and supposedly they get a lot of jokes about the “Adam and Eve” thing.
Also, for the record, it’s a bit of karma that the left’s cynical pushing of the right’s REAL rumors of REAL Democrat pedophilia (you know – the tacky, sordid, normal, kind, like HERE) “over the edge” into “crazy, unbelievable, pizzagate” territory should now come back to bite Schiff – if these rumors are NOT true, but whatever.
TIME WOUNDS ALL HEELS.
Seriously – THE NEWS is THE NEWS now. So as SNOPES accidentally TWISTS THE KNIFE on Adam Schiff, WE REPORT and YOU DECIDE.
Personally, I think it’s incredibly stupid for them to aggressively defend on this unless Schiff is guilty. But then when it comes to stupid AND evil, the left excels, trying to hide the LATTER under the FORMER so often, we simply expect it.
For the record, I believe that something is up with Schiff, but I have no idea what it ACTUALLY is. Could be more along the lines of corruption involving China and the Long Beach port. I do suspect that he likes money and power more than little boys, but you never know.
You can actually go to WD-40’s site, and they debunk a lot of myths, but NOT this ad in particular, that I can find. Maybe a more diligent search would find this particular ad. Seems like a weaponized omission to me – make people search their site more deeply. AH, NUMBERS.
But anyway, when I “googled” using NOT GOOGLE, the SNOPES entry was already showing not merely the Schiff defense right through in the text, but even the ANTI-TRUMP.
If you look at the TOP ITEM (from Snopes), you can see the ANTI-TRUMP, and PRO-CHICOM stuff just leaking right through:
Nov 12, 2014 Is a 1964 WD-40 Ad Full of Sexual Innuendo? … Hundreds of fake account admins and 1,929 Facebook advertising violations only begin to tell the story of the Epoch Times-linked, pro-Trump empire …
This had the effect of reminding me of how, during the Trump campaign – particularly the PRIMARIES, there was an INCREDIBLE amount of MALICIOUS ADS targeting Donald Trump on INCESTUOUS PEDOPHILIA. Yes. NASTY. Pictures of Businessman Trump with his daughter Ivanka, insinuating very ugly stuff.
Remember those ads? They were too cringey to even take screenshots, although I wish I had. I was not as versed in the art of DISARMING psychological malware to STUDY THE BOMB back then.
Kinda like THIS, only in salacious ad form. I think they led to a lot of sites like these:
They were EVERYWHERE, and a lot of them went past ad blockers and privacy software, because they were FORCED onto conservative websites and blogs by Soviet CIA front companies that specialize in nasty politics by malicious ads.
Yeah.
SO…..
Is Adam Schiff a pedophile? And is he still beating his lovely wife?
This TEA PARTY TUESDAY open thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA world.
You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on.
Free Speech is practiced here. ENJOY IT. Use it or lose it.
Keep it SOMEWHAT civil. They tried to FORCE fake Orwellian civility on us. In response, we CHOOSE true civility to defend our precious FREEDOM from THEM.
Our rules began with the civility of the Old Treehouse, later to become the Wolverinian Empire, and one might say that we have RESTORED THE OLD REPUBLIC – the early high-interaction model of the Treehouse – except of course that Q discussion is not only allowed but encouraged, and speech is considerably freer in other ways. Please feel free to argue and disagree with the board owner, as nicely as possible.
Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here in the January 1st open thread. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven.
Especially NOW, our VSG and his loved ones need to know this:
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU!
AND WHAT TIME IS IT? TIME TO….
DRAIN THE SWAMP
Our movement
Is about replacing
A failed
And CORRUPT
Political establishment
With a new government controlled
By you, the American People.
Candidate Donald J. Trump
Also remember Wheatie’s Rules:
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
I’m going to keep this short. Let’s pray for our VSG to have GREAT SUCCESS in England. He really seems to be hitting it off with the Queen. Her gift to him of a rare Churchill book – this is a great sign.
Prayer warriors – to arms!

This WE ARE Q 2 / SECOND STEP TWO’S-DAY open thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA world.
Some advocates had urged deeper sentencing reforms in a second major criminal justice reform bill.
Troy Powell, whose crack cocaine sentence was shortened by the First Step Act, spoke at the event Monday and called for more action to release inmates.
“There’s more that can be done. I left so many people behind in prison doing 40, 50 years for nothing, I mean absolutely nothing,” Powell said. “I think there should be a second step.”
Trump applauded Powell. “Could I have said it better than that? His statement about so many people? And that’s true, so many people are there that really are serving 40 and 50 year sentences for things you wouldn’t even believe, for things some people wouldn’t even be going to prison for today,” he said.
You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on.

FIRST of all, let’s just say that I am SERIOUSLY glad that our VSGPOTUS is taking a victory lap over the First Step Act. With that brilliant bit of penal reform, our VSG and his VSG son-in-law Jared Kushner just uprooted the “revolutionary legacy” of the Clinton administration. And it’s not going to end there. I LOVE that he “went there” and called out the Clinton Crime Bill – so awesome.
Obama’s legacy isn’t the only “legacy of communism” that is going to be eradicated.
Like I have said, the GREATEST Cloward-Piven sneak attack in our history.
This special PRAYERS FOR PROTECTION topic is a place to share
prayers for the safety of All those working to Bring Good to the World.

Lorica of Saint Patrick†
I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through a belief in the Threeness,
Through confession of the Oneness
Of the Creator of creation.
I arise today
Through the strength of Christ’s birth and His baptism,
Through the strength of His crucifixion and His burial,
Through the strength of His resurrection and His ascension,
Through the strength of His descent for the judgment of doom.
I arise today
Through the strength of the love of cherubim,
In obedience of angels,
In service of archangels,
In the hope of resurrection to meet with reward,
In the prayers of patriarchs,
In preachings of the apostles,
In faiths of confessors,
In innocence of virgins,
In deeds of righteous men.
I arise today
Through the strength of heaven;
Light of the sun,
Splendor of fire,
Speed of lightning,
Swiftness of the wind,
Depth of the sea,
Stability of the earth,
Firmness of the rock.
I arise today
Through God’s strength to pilot me;
God’s might to uphold me,
God’s wisdom to guide me,
God’s eye to look before me,
God’s ear to hear me,
God’s word to speak for me,
God’s hand to guard me,
God’s way to lie before me,
God’s shield to protect me,
God’s hosts to save me
From snares of the devil,
From temptations of vices,
From every one who desires me ill,
Afar and anear,
Alone or in a mulitude.
I summon today all these powers between me and evil,
Against every cruel merciless power that opposes my body and soul,
Against incantations of false prophets,
Against black laws of pagandom,
Against false laws of heretics,
Against craft of idolatry,
Against spells of women and smiths and wizards,
Against every knowledge that corrupts man’s body and soul.
Christ shield me today
Against poison, against burning,
Against drowning, against wounding,
So that reward may come to me in abundance.
Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of every man who speaks of me,
Christ in the eye that sees me,
Christ in the ear that hears me.
I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through a belief in the Threeness,
Through a confession of the Oneness
Of the Creator of creation
† Also known as the Breastplate of Saint Patrick, this prayer is attributed to St. Patrick in 433 A.D.. however many scholars believe the author to be anonymous.
