“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
We continue to mourn the untimely passing of our beloved compatriot DePat, known in real life as Susie Sampson, and also as author Patricia Holden.
Until we have a dedicated author for the Tuesday daily open thread, I will be posting “placeholders” like this one, which may or may not be spiced up with additional content.
Gudthots will take DePat’s old Thursday daily open thread.
Please notify me in advance if you would like to post anything in lieu of the Tuesday placeholder. We welcome all content – the topic doesn’t matter.

Get Smart – Buy a Globe!
When I was trying to get somebody to take DePat’s Tuesday open thread – meaning THIS thread – and there were no takers, I toyed with the idea of turning this open into a kind of comedy hour. The satire would be brutal – brutal enough that somebody would quickly decide to shut me up by volunteering to take the open. OR SO I HOPED!
I was going to call myself Flat Earth Wolf, and I planned to ferociously but facetiously advocate everything that most people here disagreed with, if not depise. Flat earth, no virus, deep state Trump, woke right – the worse, the better!
Yeah, at first it sounded kinda fun, but then I realized that it would just drive people away. And even I wouldn’t enjoy it.
SIGH.
Eventually, I just decided to use this open to post my own honest opinions about things. The beauty of that is, if somebody disagrees with me, they only have to volunteer to take the open to shut me up – but I don’t have to be funny or interesting, which is work.
I can just spout off and state my piece – and that is exactly what I’m going to do!
Now, as you have seen, I’ve spent a lot of time being “fair” to flat earth, by making sure people who want to post any side of any debate can do so here – and that is still happening. Most of the time, I’m encouraging people to post views that may oppose not only my own views, but everybody else’s, too.
But it’s time to be more….. how shall I say….. “complete” about things.
I try to be “nice” about a lot of “science” that “has issues”. I just try to smile and not pull out any deadly weapons of argumentation.
No serrated blades. No 100-round clips. No razor-studded baseball bats. Maybe a hanky. Yes. A perfumed hanky. Cough. Cough. Pardon me!
WELL – NOT TODAY, AND NOT RIGHT HERE, AND NOT RIGHT NOW.
¿Comprende?
Pardon me for just one moment. I’m gonna be tougher about science. Because we have to be tough. We are up against a very organized force.
The Yellow Berets, also known as Public Health Service trainees, were a group of physicians who participated in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Associate Training Program during the Vietnam War era. They were often derogatorily referred to as “Yellow Berets” by supporters of the war who viewed them as avoiding military service.
We are up against some really bad people, who are fully prepared to tell any lie for their purposes. So this opposing army – OUR army – can’t tolerate weak, wrong, and misled science in the forward combat positions. SURE – if you want to work on the base back in safe territory, you can believe all the bad and broken science you want. But if you want to get out in front, you have to subject your own biases to the relentless sharpening forces of TRUTH – and in particular EVIDENCE.
Some things are very certain out in the front lines. One of them is that this planet is a sphere, roughly.
NOW – like most other professional scientists, I haz science skilz in a lot of different areas, because most true scientists are like that. We don’t turn off the science when we walk out of school or job – and our opinions can be particularly relevant in looking at other people’s “expert” stuff, and asking terrible, sharp, venomous questions that the “experts” in those areas are hiding from, or pretending don’t exist.
Much “organization” in current, problematic, sick, “mainstream” science is done to insulate compromised insiders from pesky intelligent outsiders.
Decorum, you know. That’s it. Decorum.
Well, too bad.
BUT we have to hold ourselves to the same revolutionary standards.
Yadig? Of course! What’s good for vaccines, is good for “no virus”, “flat earth”, and many other things.
Globe Earth Wolf has a recommendation that will ultimately test your faith in God, by beating on it. He’s gonna BEAT your armor until it is HARDER, and the first beat-down is that you need to buy an actual globe and STUDY IT.
They’re CHEAP AS DIRT. Most are made in CHYYYNA. But you still have to buy one. I don’t care where it’s made. BUY A GLOBE. And if you already have one, pull it out of the closet, attic or basement.
Buy one at a garage sale, if you have to.
I recommend buying a globe that is at least 12 inches in diameter, and is mounted so that the tilt of Earth’s axis relative to the sun is clearly demonstrable.
Blue oceans which are highly differentiated in color from the land masses are very helpful. Political boundaries are somewhat immaterial, although they do help you LOCATE things more quickly and precisely, and if they are current, the globe can be used to increase your current geopolitical understanding. On the other hand, a vintage globe can be useful for more historical understanding. In either case, I recommend blue oceans, because some vintage globes hide this physically useful truth, by making everything somewhat off-white, sepia and tan, simply to look good on furniture, as opposed to BEATING ON YOUR BRAIN, which is my purpose.
What I am doing is actually a stupid trick from science – a silly secret among the “top men”. And top women, but let’s not get TOO bogged down in DEI.
You see, MODELS – simple physical models – are behind so much of the best science and so many of the best scientists. I have watched this throughout my entire life, and it’s hilarious. Good models are what won Watson and Crick the Nobel Dynamite & Bankster Prize for DNA, and Doudna and Charpentier the same for CRISPR-Cas9. Good models are how all the best work on C60/Buckyballs/Fullerenes was done.
Good models are how stereochemistry was explained in the late 19th century. Good models are – over and over – how organic chemistry and then biochemistry were worked out in the 19th and 20th centuries.
When I went to school with a bunch of scary smart people, I quickly realized that I could use my cheap plastic molecular model set, which I was ironically forced to buy, but wisely chose to actually use, to find all sorts of science which had apparently evaded older students and even our professors for years. Simple, stupid, cheap, plastic and aluminum, “straws and jacks” (not even balls and sticks) was all it took to figure out realities that would ALWAYS show up in chemical behavior, spectroscopy, and quantum mechanical calculations.
I would SHOW PEOPLE this stuff with models – and you could always tell the winners from the losers by how fast they would start using their own “required but never used” model set to figure things out – by how carefully (or stupidly and carelessly) they would cut their little bonds – by how carefully or carelessly they would grab the right “jack” to get the right angles at the atoms – by how strongly they would reason past the limitations of the cheap models – and by how quickly they would spend some of their hard-earned but very limited cash to buy a SECOND or THIRD model set, to make even bigger and better models possible.
I am doing the exact same thing here, to make you smarter – to make YOU a winner.
Because we can’t have too much winning if you aren’t on the same page as Trump, as well as the historical patriots who really did walk this SPHERICAL planet and built this great civilization – and GOD – who made this WORKING BALL on which WORKING LIFE not only EXISTS but THRIVES and then hopefully carries on His PRO-LIFE MISSION of creating and persisting a life-filled and God-loving universe, which is something GOD WANTS BECAUSE IT’S GOOD.
Just my opinion?
Yeah. But still – buy a globe. You will learn so much from it.
I recommend keeping your globe in some place you visit regularly. I stand in front of my globe generally 2-4 times a day, and I probably toy with it at least daily. When we’re having science discussions here, especially after one of Steve’s science posts, I may spend a half hour with that globe.
What am I looking at?
I am looking at seasons. I’m looking at angles of the sun. I’m looking at hours of daylight, twilight, and darkness. But that’s just the beginning.
Most importantly, I’m looking at thousands of tiny details and saying “OH, THAT MAKES SENSE”. Airplane flights. Jet lag. Shipping routes. Planetary distances. Phone conversations. Satellites. “4 AM”. Russia, CHYYYNA, Japan. Burma Shave. TAIWAN. Why Hawaii has always been filled with trouble and bullshit. Look at your globe and every little thing starts to make sense.
This is very critical. When you have a real, true, winning solution in science, like a spherical planet, it just makes all the little stuff WORK. All the thousands of minor details WORK for any scientist who looks at the model, and kicks the tires. This is why Newton is not “replaced” by Einstein – he’s just being helped out around the edges where things get weird.
The problem with “Flat Earth” (and other things I’ll talk about later) is that one big mistake made from an emotionally attractive bias to the past tries (and fails) to upset all the little yet critical stuff other people are doing or have done – meaning millions of honest, good-faith observations. THEN, the same people who break all the little yet critical stuff for everybody else, when confronted, just throw back some non-working, “causes even more trouble”, evasion of an answer, and pretend that they answered the problem, when they didn’t. And that is exactly why nobody takes them seriously, and most people ignore them.
In science, you have to make something that lets OTHER PEOPLE explain or predict stuff on their own, successfully, nearly every time, to actually have a product that sells AND GETS RE-SOLD. Newton did that. Chemistry did that. Electromagnetism did that. Relativity did that. Quantum mechanics did that. Particle physics did that.
When you look at the globe, try to predict how long automobile trips and plane flights take. Look at where islands are. Look at where history happened. Look at where mankind started, wandered, and settled. Look at climate. Look at weather. Look at temperatures. Look at where those temperatures are on the globe.
Right there, the semi-frozen pizza stumbles hard, but the globe, with two poles on one axis, just works like crazy. Everything is nicely – no – perfectly explained – and it’s explained all together at the same time, by a very simple model.
Your actual globe will make you a solid and strong glober. And scientist. And lover of truth.
And then you will become even stronger, because – believe it or not – you will become stronger in FAITH. You will start to see how God makes stuff WORK – and I mean REALLY WORK – simply, powerfully, independently – and that pattern is something you can predict will show up again, and again, and again.
God makes stuff that WORKS. And KEEPS WORKING.
But I’m getting ahead of things.
So buy that globe, or get the old one out, and let’s talk about it. Make that globe WORK for you. Let it help you see the TRUTH.
And as it brings you closer to TRUTH, it will bring you closer to GOD.

“Is there anything as great as a Trump rally?”

I have noticed what I think is a thread throughout history. In my article, on Operation Gladio, I mentioned Mercantilism. Investopedia defines Mercantilism thus:
Mercantilism is an economic policy designed to increase a nation’s wealth through exports, which thrived in Great Britain between the 16th and 18th centuries. The country enjoyed the greatest benefits of mercantilism between 1640 and 1660 when the prevailing economic wisdom suggested that the empire’s colonies could supply raw materials and resources to the mother country and subsequently be used as export markets for the finished products.
The resulting favorable balance of trade was thought to increase national wealth and Great Britain was not alone in this line of thinking. The French, Spanish, and Portuguese competed with the British for colonies under the belief that no great nation could exist and be self-sufficient without colonial resources. Because of this heavy reliance on its colonies, Great Britain imposed restrictions on how its colonies could spend their money or distribute assets…
Key Takeaways
Mercantilism exists to increase a country’s wealth through its exports.
British economic growth was propelled by raw materials supplied by its colonies so the nation could export finished products.
Mercantilism brought about many acts against humanity, including slavery and an imbalanced system of trade.
During Great Britain’s mercantilist period, colonies faced periods of inflation and excessive taxation, which caused great distress.
Angry and frustrated American colonists revolted against the British, which led to the American Revolution and the end of mercantilism.
Although current understanding holds that Mercantilism, as an economic philosophy, is long obsolete, it was never really abandoned by the Cabal. Instead, it was just hidden.
The second useful concept is Monopsony. It is what we now see in the USA today, especially in the food industry.
A monopsony is a market condition in which there is only one buyer, the monopsonist. Like a monopoly, a monopsony also has imperfect market conditions. The difference between a monopoly and a monopsony lies in the difference between the controlling entities. An individual seller controls a monopolized market while a single buyer dominates a monopsony. Monopsonists are common in areas where they supply most or all of the region’s jobs.
Key Takeaways
A monopsony refers to a market dominated by a single buyer who has a controlling advantage that drives its consumption price levels down.
A monopsony can arise due to geographical constraints, government regulation, or unique consumer demands.
Monopsonies commonly experience low prices from wholesalers and an advantage in paid wages.
Unlike a monopoly where one seller creates upward pricing pressure, a monopsony is a market condition with only one buyer who may cause downward pricing pressure.
Trade is the voluntary exchange of goods or services between different economic actors. Since the parties are under no obligation to trade, a transaction will only occur if both parties consider it beneficial to their interests….
Trade seems to be as old as civilization itself—ancient civilizations traded with each other for goods they could not produce for themselves due to climate, natural resources, or other inhibiting factors…
Trade and bartering seems to be a uniquely human trait and it is seen through out history. It is a reason for empire building. Empires like the Roman empire or the Aztec empire were based on trade.
The Aztec economy was based on three things: agricultural goods, tribute, and trade. Aztec trade was crucially important to the empire; there could be no empire without it as many goods used by the Aztecs were not produced locally. Prized white cotton could not grow at the altitude of the Valley of Mexico and had to be imported from conquered semi-tropical regions further south, as were cacao beans, from which chocolate is made…. Pochteca were professional merchants, traveling long distances to obtain the luxury goods desired by the nobility: feathers from tropical birds, rare gems or jewelry and pottery created by other Mesoamerican cultures. The pochteca obtained anything rare and special, as well as the white cotton and cacao beans, earning them a special place in the Aztec society. They had their own capulli, laws and section of the city, even their own god, who watched over traders.
I am using the Aztecs to make the point that the critical factor in looking at the bits and pieces that I am assembling is THE MERCHANT PRINCES and not religion! As I said in last week’s article, today religion is used as a diversion to keep people from looking further. Scream Islamophobia or antisemitism and you have successfully shut down the conversation. I am also making the point that the merchant princes/bankers have a tremendous amount of power over the government.
…..
Last week I took another look at the Khazars and I want to make this additional comment about their history written by Arthur Koestler. Koestler would have access to the memories of his parents and grandparents, neighbors and even further back. From WIKI:
Koestler was born in Budapest [Very near Poland -GC] to Jewish parents Henrik and Adele Koestler (née Jeiteles). Henrik’s father, Lipót Koestler, was a soldier in the Austro-Hungarian Army.[7] In 1861, Lipót married Karolina Schon,the daughter of a prosperous timber merchant, and their son Henrik was born on 18 August 1869 in the town of Miskolc in northeastern Hungary….
I think from his mom and grandparents he would have first hand tales to substantiate what he wrote, in addition to the information he gained in his visits to Russia.
…Some particular trades became virtually a Jewish monopoly in Poland. One was dealing in timber— which reminds one that timber was the chief building material and an important export in Khazaria;another was transport. “The dense net of shtetls,” writes Poliak, “made it possible to distribute manufactured goods over the whole country by means of the superbly built Jewish type of horse cart.
[Has a lot about the history of Jews, Italians and Banking.]
…The word mammon can denote wealth or profit in the original Syriac dialect but also is the name of a Syrian deity who was the god of riches. The Mishnaic Hebrew word mamôn means money, wealth, possessions, and “that in which one trusts.”
Eventually, due to the Christian injunction against charging interest for money that is loaned to another person (usury), the entire idea of money (mammon) became a pejorative, a term that was used to describe pride, greed, gluttony, excessive materialism, and unjust worldly gain. The “worship” of money was seen as a sin, and the work of the demon of greed, Mammon. Later, money becomes synonymous with hellish intent and bondage to the physical world which leads humans into the dark realms; therefore, Christians were warned to stay away from practices of usury and the glorification of Mammon. It was a common belief that usury is the work of the devil and certainly not fit for a Christian. A Christian should be faithful with “another” and help them out of love, not for the purposes of money mongering for personal gain. The Christian is careful not to be contaminated by the “unrighteousness” of wealth and money and the lure of Mammon.
…The first “modern” bank was established in Venice with a guarantee from the State in 1157 AD and operated until 1797 acting in the interest of the Crusaders of Pope Urban the Second. This activity developed into the Bank of Venice, with an initial capital of 5,000,000 ducats. This bank was the first national bank to have been established within the boundaries of Europe.
In the middle of the 13th Century, when certain rich Italian families saw the profits that the Venetian banking families were making, groups of Italian Christians, particularly the Cahorsins and Lombards, invented “legal fictions” to get around the ban on Christian usury. One method of Christians effecting a loan with interest without calling it usury was to offer money without interest, but also require that the loan is insured against possible loss or injury, and/or delays in repayment. The Christians effecting these legal fictions became known as the Pope’s Usurers and reduced the importance of the Venetian and Italian Jews to European monarchs….
Italian and Jewish bankers… An interesting side note to keep in the back of your mind:
Did you know there were primarily two distinct mafia/mobster networks operating in the United States in the early 1900’s.
One consisted of Italian mafia families that had emigrated to America. They settled primarily in New York and Chicago and focused on trafficking liquor during prohibition, gambling, and prostitution.
The second were Jewish mobsters like Louis “Pretty” Amberg, Moses Annenberg (newspaper/media for Hearst Corp), Abe Bernstein (Purple Gang), Mickey Cohen (Los Angeles), Meyer Lansky (formed the National Crime Syndicate focusing on Cuba and Las Vegas), and Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel (New York and Las Vegas). While they were into all the same crime syndicates as the Italian mobsters, they also were used by large business enterprises that needed assistance in making things happen—for example, dock workers, newspapers, bankers, etc….
The mafia and mobsters didn’t disappear after World War II; much of their activities were folded into the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The prohibition era liquor networks gave way to drugs like heroin and cocaine, with the profits being used to fund covert functions of Operation Gladio, with prostitution transformed into human trafficking networks, the funds being used for covert operations as well. Lastly, in order to keep this operation protected and to provide weapons to the stay-behind-units, a weapons trafficking network was incorporated into the CIA….
And now we come to career choices. Would you rather sit at home and LEND money, money that is insured and brings interest? Or would you rather be the merchant that treks all over the world?
October 26, 2011 Stefania Vitali, James B. Glattfelder, Stefano Battiston
Abstract
The structure of the control network of transnational corporations affects global market competition and financial stability… We present the first investigation of the architecture of the international ownership network, along with the computation of the control held by each global player. We find that transnational corporations form a giant bow-tie structure and that a large portion of control flows to a small tightly-knit core of financial institutions. This core can be seen as an economic “super-entity” that raises new important issues both for researchers and policy makers.
In contrast, we find that only 737 top holders accumulate 80% of the control over the value of all TNCs [transnational corporations ]… This means that network control is much more unequally distributed than wealth. In particular, the top ranked actors hold a control ten times bigger than what could be expected based on their wealth. (Think MUTUAL FUNDS & PENSIONS! -GC]
To hear more about how the study was conducted there was a Ted Talk. Interestingly this ted talk has also been removed but the transcript is still available HERE:

Now, you’ve probably all heard of similar criticism coming from people who are skeptical of capitalism. But this is different. This is coming from the heart of finance. The first quote is from Jean-Claude Trichet when he was governor of the European Central Bank. The second quote is from the head of the U.K. Financial Services Authority. Are these people implying that we don’t understand the economic systems that drive our modern societies? It gets worse. “We spend billions of dollars trying to understand the origins of the universe while we still don’t understand the conditions for a stable society, a functioning economy, or peace.” [LIE MUCH? -GC]
Next time the Fake News mentions the stock market remember this.
A pair of physicists at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich did a physics-based analysis of the world economy as it looked in early 2007. Stefano Battiston and James Glattfelder extracted the information from the tangled yarn that links 24,877 stocks and 106,141 shareholding entities in 48 countries, revealing what they called the “backbone” of each country’s financial market. These backbones represented the owners of 80 percent of a country’s market capital, yet consisted of remarkably few shareholders.
“You start off with these huge national networks that are really big, quite dense,” Glattfelder said. “From that you’re able to … unveil the important structure in this original big network. You then realize most of the network isn’t at all important.”
The most pared-down backbones exist in Anglo-Saxon countries,.. these same countries are considered by economists to have the most widely-held stocks in the world… But while each American company may link to many owners, Glattfelder and Battiston’s analysis found that the owners varied little from stock to stock…
(The author should not have used the word Capitalist since it is NOT capitalism.)
…..
It would seem the Cabal decided banking was the better career choice. However they obviously have a vested interest in seeing that the ‘Merchant Princes’ aka Transnational Corporations make as much money as possible since they owned them. Hence they would want as much power over governments as possible.
Originally corporations were granted charters by Royalty. As an example the East India Company was granted a charter by Queen Elizabeth I on December 31, 1600 The charter allowed it to have exclusive trading rights with the East Indies.
For an amusing retelling of the history of the British East India Company see:
“Those few who can understand the system (check book, money and credit) will either be so interested in its profits, or so dependent on it favors, that there will be little opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of people mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system, will bear it burdens without complaint, and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests.” – — ROTHSCHILDS BROS. OF LONDON
“Banking was conceived in iniquity, and was born in sin. The Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of the pen, they will create enough deposits, to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But if you wish to remain the slaves of Bankers, and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits.” — SIR JOSIAH STAMP, (President of the Bank of England in the 1920’s, the second richest man in Britain)
Can’t get more blunt than that!
Now that we have introduced two major methods for making money, trade & lending let’s re-introduce the CIA and the NAZIs…. AND FASCISM.
The “Third Way” is the ‘Capitalism’ that those on the left complain about. It is a nasty mix of Corporate/government governance like we see now in the USA but it is NOT capitalism, it is a form of ‘socialism’.
E. M. Smith, who is an economist by training, explained it in 2011 in
“What a corporation wants is a monopoly where they can achieve the profit maximizing price point. Not competition. No “market” with many sellers…
EPA is used to forbid all sorts of things that can be done easily and cheaply, and where the alternative is very expensive (and available from very few, or one, supplier). So, want to make your own “trash to fuel FT machine”? Well, better check out all the “regulations” on fuel refining and production … if you don’t have a few full time lawyers to fill out the paperwork and a few more to defend against the EPA suing you, it’s a no-go. And who DOES have those lawyers? AND the already established refineries? Oh yeah…
Once corporations figure out that it is cheaper and easier to get the competition banned and them mandated, than to create new products; and that they can make lots of money as the sole provider of a crappy product but not that much making good products in a competitive market; well, lets just say that the campaign contributions flow…
That would be bad enough, but the greedy bastards want it ALL. They want complete control of the entire world and everyone in it.
The current S&P 500 Index has the most top-heavy weighting the US has ever known. In 2025, the top 5 companies in America account for 33% of the S&P 500 Index weighting. For reference, in 2010, the top 5 companies accounted for 11%. In 15 years, the top 5 companies tripled in their weighting. One-third of the current weighting is in 1% of the S&P 500 companies. This means the S&P 500 doesn’t appropriately represent the US stock market. In fact, only 1% of American businesses are even publicly traded companies and a part of the stock market. The stock market doesn’t represent the economy, and the S&P 500 doesn’t properly represent the stock market.
Now that that is established, what do the five biggest companies in America all have in common, besides being megalithic in size? I believe they all have the same master, the CIA. They are all used to influence Americans and the world. They are all critical in propagandizing and controlling the world….
So lets stop here and look at the pieces of information we have.
* Trade is the life blood of empires.
* Lending money facilitates trade AND is easier and less risky especially if you are a national bank using fractional reserve banking practices.
* If you can create money out of thin air you can BUY all the corporations you want.
So, HOW do you MAXIMIZE profits and control?
Enter the World Bank, IMF and their Economic Hitmen. They are the first step. If you remember the “Confessions Of An EconomicHitman“ This is the first arrow in the quiver of our Hidden Rulers.
John Perkins: This is how Economic Hitmen (EHMs) destroy countries
…That is what we Economic Hitmen do best: we build a global empire.
We are an elite group of men and women who utilize international financial organizations to foment conditions that make other nations sub-servient to the corporatocracy running our biggest corporations, our government, and our banks. Like our counterparts in the Mafia, EHMs provide favors. These take the form of loans to develop infrastructure — electric generating plants, highways, ports, airports, or industrial parks . A condition of such loans is that engineering and construction companies from our own country must build all these projects.
In essence, most of the money never leaves the United States; it is simply transferred from banking offices in Washington to engineering offices in New York, Houston, or San Francisco.
Despite the fact that the money is returned almost immediately to corporations that are members of the corporatocracy (the creditor), the recipient country is required to pay it all back, principal plus interest. If an EHM is completely successful, the loans are so large that the debtor is forced to default on its payments after a few years. When this happens, then like the Mafia we demand our pound of flesh.
This often includes one or more of the following: control over United Nations votes, the installation of military bases, or access to precious resources such as oil or the Panama Canal. Of course, the debtor still owes us the money—and another country is added to our global empire….
[The article has an one hour video interview of Perkins.]
JOHN PERKINS: We economic hit men, during the last 30 or 40 years, have really created the world’s first truly global empire, and we’ve done this primarily through economics, and the military only coming in as a last resort. Therefore, it’s been done pretty much secretly. Most of the people in the United States have no idea that we’ve created this empire and, in fact, throughout the world it’s been done very quietly, unlike old empires, where the army marched in; it was obvious. So I think the significance of the things you discussed, the fact that over 80% of the population of South America recently voted in an anti-U.S. president and what’s going on at the World Trade Organization, and also, in fact, with the transit strike here in New York, is that people are beginning to understand that the middle class and the lower classes around the world are being terribly, terribly exploited by what I call the corporatocracy, which really runs this empire…. what we’ve done — we use many techniques, but probably the most common is that we’ll go to a country that has resources that our corporations covet, like oil, and we’ll arrange a huge loan to that country from an organization like the World Bank or one of its sisters, but almost all of the money goes to the U.S. corporations, not to the country itself, corporations like Bechtel and Halliburton, General Motors, General Electric, these types of organizations, and they build huge infrastructure projects in that country: power plants, highways, ports, industrial parks, things that serve the very rich and seldom even reach the poor. In fact, the poor suffer, because the loans have to be repaid, and they’re huge loans, and the repayment of them means that the poor won’t get education, health, and other social services, and the country is left holding a huge debt, by intention. We go back, we economic hit men, to this country and say, “Look, you owe us a lot of money. You can’t repay your debts, so give us a pound of flesh. Sell our oil companies your oil real cheap or vote with us at the next U.N. vote or send troops in support of ours to some place in the world such as Iraq.” And in that way, we’ve managed to build a world empire with very few people actually knowing that we’ve done this.…
And after the World Bank is finished the IMF steps in.
“Today I resigned from the staff of the International Monetary Fund after over 12 years, and after 1000 days of official fund work in the field, hawking your medicine and your bag of tricks to governments and to peoples in Latin America and the Caribbean and Africa. To me, resignation is a priceless liberation, for with it I have taken the first big step to that place where I may hope to wash my hands of what in my mind’s eye is the blood of millions of poor and starving peoples. Mr. Camdessus, the blood is so much, you know, it runs in rivers. It dries up too; it cakes all over me; sometimes I feel that there is not enough soap in the whole world to cleanse me from the things that I did do in your name and in the name of your predecessors, and under your official seal. “
With those words, Davison Budhoo, a senior economist with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for more than 12 years, publicly resigned in May, 1988.
The article continues.
The IMF and World Bank are separate institutions with distinct roles. While the bank makes loans for development projects, the IMF lends to governments to ease deficits and make their economies appear stable to the international market. The World Bank was created in April 1944 as a lending institution composed of member governments to help rebuild post-war economies. The IMF was created to restructure and organize the market systems of member nations by promoting international economic cooperation and trade, and by encouraging stable currencies.
The bank introduced Structural Adjustment Programs in 1980 to increase export production in debtor nations to provide cash for debt-service payment. Under “structural adjustment,” developing countries typically are required to devalue their currency; dramatically cut spending on social services, medical care and education; eliminate barriers to foreign multinationals and trade; privatize national assets; deregulate business; decrease wages; restrict credit and raise interest rates.
Due to the radical reorganization of national economies, people in “SAPed” countries often pay for their governments’ loans with extreme poverty, hunger and disease. Using figures provided by UNICEF and UNDP, the editors of the IMF-World Bank Watchdog estimated that more than six million children under the age of five have died each year since 1982 in Africa, Asia and Latin America as a result of IMF / World Bank policies.
SAPs often carry heavy ecological costs as well. The forced privatization of nationalized industries and public or communal lands often opens Third World countries to opportunistic multinational corporations resulting in degraded (or destroyed) and polluted environments. Placing the emphasis on exports rather than local needs in a time of falling world commodity prices results in exploitation and depletion of oil, minerals, forests and other natural resources….
If the leaders of a country do not cooperate with the World Bank and IMF, the CIA and its Gladio Units step in and foment unrest and if needed assassination. So while the CIA is part of the mechanism, the ENFORCERS if you will, it is not running the show as Eric Carlson thinks.
As Colonel Towner pointed out, the funding of the CIA is ‘Off Books’ Some is from the USAID, but the CIA also makes a lot of its money pushing drugs and child sex trafficking. Just in case you were wondering, in 1914, Just after the Federal Reserve Act was passed, the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act was passed. It regulated and taxed the production, importation, and distribution of opiates and coca products.
Congress passed the Food and Drug Act in 1906, which required the labeling of all ingredients in these patent medicines and cure-alls.
1914 Harrison Tax Act
By 1914, various groups wanted to ban various drugs. Congress and most Americans at the time thought that a ban of any drug was unconstitutional as our constitutional guarantee of liberty gave us the right to consume any product we wished (which is why the prohibition against alcohol required a constitutional amendment rather than merely a law). The plan was to ban drugs by making them nearly impossible to obtain. The law required that you must pay a tax on drugs. To ensure that the tax was collected, you had to get the drugs from a doctor via prescription (all prescriptions were therefore registered with the tax office which enabled the government to track which doctors were prescribing which drugs)
….
If we go back and look at the East India Company, it had its own army.
The East India Company (EIC) was first England‘s and then Britain‘s tool of colonial expansion in India and beyond. Revenue from trade and land taxes from territories it controlled allowed the EIC to build up its own private armies, collectively the largest armed force in South and South East Asia.
The EIC mixed British and Indian soldiers (sepoys), hired regular regiments of the British Army, and funded its own navy, the Bombay Marine. The vast resources of the company allowed it to eventually employ over 250,000 well-trained and well-equipped fighting men. This force expanded the EIC’s domains, seeing off competition from Indian princely states, pirates, and other European trade companies.
This time around they have naive Americans funding their army via taxes (USAID) drug, child and weapons trafficking. It is nothing new, only the faces have changed.
Opium for medicinal purposes was first manufactured in China toward the end of the 15th century. It was used to treat dysentery, cholera and other diseases. Not until the 18th century were there any accounts of opium smoking in China.
In 1729, the Chinese imperial government, alarmed at its debilitating effect, prohibited the sale of opium mixed with tobacco and banned opium-smoking houses. Selling opium for smoking “was classed with robbery and instigation to murder, and punished with banishment or death,” wrote Joshua Rowntree in “The Imperial Drug Trade,” published in London in 1905…
Britain’s East India Company would wage three wars on the people of China in order to secure the right to sell opium there….
They were the world’s first drug wars. Their sole purpose was to secure the importation of an addictive substance that provided a bountiful flow of profits.
Opium sales had risen gradually from 2,330 chests in 1788 to 4,968 chests in 1810. But once the British got a monopoly, they forced it up to 17,257 chests in 1835, worth millions of British pounds.
Britain’s governor-general of India wrote in 1830, “We are taking measures for extending the cultivation of the poppy, with a view to a large increase in the supply of opium.”….
The Chinese are now returning the favor by pushing fentanyl into the USA. At least according to the CIA controlled Mockingbird Media.
Finally these are other articles I have written that describe some of the threads I am trying to pull together to determine who actually rules the world.
Please save all crucial information about the attempted assassination of President Trump HERE. There may be other articles later – we will make sure to link those HERE. Please also add reference links back to this post.

Trump vs. the Cult of Cthulhu
Constantin von Hoffmeister (@constantinvonh) illuminates how the recent assassination attempt underscores Donald Trump’s defining role in thwarting the insane acolytes of Cthulhu from unleashing World War Three.
I am going to put this up fast. It will be a hodgepodge of data in no particular order… lots OF DATA!
My goal at this point is just to capture the information and not to actually write an article.
We will start with my raw notes THAT ARE ALL FROM SOMEONE ELSE. I am sorry if I ‘Stole’ your work without including your name. I AM NOT GOING TO DO QUOTES. It takes to long!
Afternoon Treepers. I have “held my mud” since Saturday to try and sort through all the lies and distortions on the assassination attempt. I think this stinks worse than day old tuna in the Sahara.
Lets state some OBVIOUS.
This is NOT incompetence. This was PLANNED. Meticulously PLANNED.
Hint, it was NOT Crooks who did the planning
Crooks was a set up radicalized PATSY
SS, and some local PSP had to be in on it
the cover up is WELL underway
This will NOT go away or be explained away like 1963. The TRUTH is coming, and it will put the FINAL nails in the DS Cabal.
Guys. Lets be REAL here. NO ONE gets within 500 yards of a former and leading candidate for President in an outdoor setting with an ELEVATED position. NO ONE. There is a REASON that this had not happened since 1963. ALL elevated line of sight positions became the FIRST priority of the SS sight team.
Trump was a sitting duck. The SS and PSP had NO confusion on where to cover, that is complete horse shit. Remember my axiom. When the MSM or DS have to change a narrative more than ONCE, the original narrative, and ALL subsequent narrative to support it are a LIE.
As soon as the SS Director said the reason the roof at AGR was not covered was because of the pitch, I knew it was ALL a lie, and the circle jerk had began.
Too many “”omissions” for this to be mere incompetence.
1)Short perimeter instead of 500 yards it was 200, leaving the nice elevated and deserted AGR building just outside the SS “:perimeter. 2) Convenient “confusion” on what group was responsible for covering AGR )PSP or SS) 3) Supposed lack of comms between local, state, and SS LE running this site. NO WAY they were not ALL monitoring each others comms. 4) a suspect walks around with a range finder for HOURS before the event and NO ONE confronts him. SS and LE tactical units are trained to EXACTLY spot suspects like that. Loner, lurking around, scouting with a range finder…RIGHT. 5) SS supposedly stationed IN AGR building instead of ON the ROOF of AGR. Anyone that has ever been even moderately trained knows about sight lines, interlocking fire, triangulation, and the high ground. The FIRST thing is to scout and eliminate the OBVIOUS vulnerabilities. They did not, they left this OPEN, WIDE open, more on that in a bit. 6)the lack of air support even a drone. NO WAY someone of Trump’s stature politically is NOT given close air support, even infrared. To pretend that Trump was not a former President, not the presumptive Republican nominee, not the odds on favorite to once again be President, and did not have political threats and enemies looking to take him out, especially after Iran issued a threat that DAY is laughable. It is not just Trump, there were expected to be 20-5- THOUSAND people in attendance. Who are they trying to kid here. 7) a kid of 20, with no know military training was able to evade SS, with a range finder, a riffle, and perhaps a ladder, to find THE perfect spot. So close it was almost unbelievable. Like shooting fish in a barrel. Come on. 8) The PERFECT location was left WIDE open. No perimeter or roof presence, the building was likely deserted because it was a Saturday. The building was just far away enough to avoid regular LE detection. Easy road access, EASY roof access with concealment.. The perfect height and distance for line of sight. Hell the SS snipers positioned behind Trump could have just as easily been positioned at AGR for sight coverage. Why was it omitted? . 9) poor comms when the shooter was spotted (by the CROWD) no less than 30 minutes before he took the shots. 30 seconds would have been PLEANTY of time to remove the President AND neutralize the shooter. Which is EXACTLY what should have happened. 10) Trumps regular team was diverted, or over worked so that the pony tail brigade was brought in…furthering the “tragic circumstance” narrative
They did not need to WAIT to remove Trump, OR take out the shooter. See, not ONLY Trump was in DANGER. That is where their narrative FAILS. There were @ 20000 CIVILIANS there as well as Trump. The shooter could have EASILY randomly opened fire into the crowd after his initial volley at Trump. That ALONE was reason enough to terminate the target.
Think about it. person on WHITE roof, with a weapon, outside perimeter, aiming toward protectee AND crowd. 3 seconds to know that he was NOT part of the detail. One outside perimeter, two, NOT in SS or LE attire, three, no comms to suspect. Execute, bang…threat neutralized. Medals for valor conferred later, as well as TV appearances, and hero accolades for acting quickly and SAVING lives. Think I’m off base, try posing on a roof with a weapon outside any open air venue after Las Vegas. You will get properly ventilated expeditiously.
Now, back to the shooter. How did a kid from 1 hr away get the perfect location scouted? How did he KNOW there was not someone stationed on that roof waiting to take out a threat. How did he KNOW there was no close air support or elevated surveillance? How did he carry a ladder and a riffle around undetected?
Answer, he was TOLD where to go, where to set up, that he would be un accosted, and that he would have a free shot, be a “hero” and that he would get away. Bank on it. Hell, I bet the reason the ladder theory of 5 ft does not fit the building is because he did not NEED a ladder. Looks to me like that building has what we call a mechanical “penthouse” I bet the reason he was not seen at first is because he was either let in the building, or told where an unlocked door was and how to get to the roof position from INSIDE. Then he was seen by the CROWD as he crawled into position. Curious how that could happen.
Remember folks. It did not have to be a detailed comm message. Simply “possible shooter on the roof” would have sufficed.
Trump would have (should have) been immediately covered and rushed away. The shooter would have been targeted by the SS snipers and eliminated. Hell they were watching him purportedly for THREE minutes. “awaiting authorization to fire” BULL SCHIFF. Any ONE of the listed items could have been an oversight. The vast amount of “oversights” can only lead to ONE conclusion. .Trump was set up by insiders to be assassinated right before the convention when he had not yet named a VP. They were going to fill the vacuum with their DS choice, who would take the sympathy and be their Manchurian candidate puppet.
Almighty God had other ideas. That slight head turn, milliseconds before the bullet would have struck (it was already on its way) was NOT luck, it was not planned, it was God’s will and his hand. PERIOD.
Now, they are in full coverup mode, but this time, it is not still cameras, BW photos, or even grainy 35mm film that captured it ALL I GUARANTEE someone has some smoking gun video. They should not give it to the FBI so it will be lost or destroyed. They should give it to Trump or James O keefe. So the WORLD will see.
Lastly, LOTS of people KNEW this was supposed to happen. Why was THIS rally out of ALL the others so extensively covered by ALL the major networks…LIVE. Why was the AP photographer able to perfectly capture the bullet in flight in frame (because he was WAITING for the head shot…that is also why he used fast shutter speed, to capture the head explosion in gory detail) Why were politicians like Obama so quick to come out with statements? Answer because they were PRE written, and they only had to change a word from “attempted” to “assassination”
The Cabal left an opening, put in a patsy, and showed him the way to do it to a tee. Trump was supposed to die that day, and leave us all in morning with nowhere to turn. Their plan FAILED and now they are FUBAR. They KNOW IT.
The old adage holds. “If you are going to go after a king, you’d best not MISS”
They MISSED. I expect a LOT of mea culpa’s, fleeing the country, and yes even suicides soon. This was STUPID. They thought this was their way out, and it was 1963 all over again where they could take out the countries leader, line up a patsy and a BS story, and insert their puppet in our blind emotion.
No apologies rex, there’s a whole lot to this assassination attempt and it takes time and length to put the pieces together….I hope you don’t mind if I add the following as a consideration to be taken in regard to to your comment 6)the lack of air support even a drone.
I picked this up while I was crawling through social media this morning:
Anonymous insider testimony on the Trump shooter incident. This will eventually be submitted to the Congressional tip line. In the meanwhile, it’s your too! The people deserve to know. My person has access to the PA State Police, Butler County Sheriffs, and Butler Police Department. Now let’s begin.
1. The water tower is still very much in play.
2. The Pennsylvania State Police are usually allocated to events such as the Trump rally.
3. Secret Service told the State Police not to show up.
4. All SERT tech (Strategic Emergency Response Team) would have been leveraged by the State Police that were disinvited.
5. Tech for State SERT services also includes drones, bombs, and snipers. So State Pol ice was not allocated and local police were only allocated to traffic control.
6. If SERT is the normal unit to provide permitted security and technology, how did the Secret Service intend to augment without them?
7. Only four state police were permitted onsite. They were stationed near to local police who had been restricted to crowd/vehicular traffic.
8. State SERT would normally be the team on the roof. (But the Secret Service told them not to show up.)
9. Sheriffs department is suggesting someone fell off the roof and broke both ankles. This has not yet been confirmed. [Would this be the local police officer that fell after he peeked over the edge and the cop that the Shooter pointed his weapon at?]
10. The Butler County Sheriff is largely corrupt. Many are questioning his messaging on Main Stream Media outlets. [such as this press announcement he gave on July 13, 2024: In a recent development, the Butler Police Department has announced the arrest of the suspect involved in the shooting incident targeting former President Trump. The alleged shooter has been identified as Mark Violets, who is reported to be a member of the Antifa group. Prior to the shooting, Violets posted a video on YouTube in which he ominously declared that “justice is coming.”
It appears to me that the Secret Service was deeply involved in perpetrating an assassination upon a political candidate…and it also appears at this time that the FBI, the DOJ, and the DHS are deeply involved in covering it up.
Cheato doesn’t deserve to be allowed to resign and walk away. She is a traitor who facilitated a murder against three civilians that her “team” put in harms way. I think she deserves to hang, but maybe that’s just me.
….
“Eyewitnesses from the ground who saw the shooter on the roof at the Butler Trump rally describe seeing snipers in the second story building of the AGR Building in Butler Township, Pennsylvania.
Speaking yesterday exclusively to the Gateway Pundit, the eyewitnesses said there is a lot more to the story that is not being reported by the mainstream media.
Though they could not get a clear look at them, they describe seeing one sniper in particular with a sleeve tattoo. The building staff had been chasing off Trump supporters earlier that day, people who wanted to walk up on the property to the security fence to get a better shot of America’s President. Later, when the group tried again the security was nowhere to be found so they went onto the field.
While there, they witnessed a man crawling on the roof and for what ABC admits is at least twenty minutes, and witnesses say was at least thirty minutes, trying to warn security as to what was going on, but there were no police and no security on this entire side of the Trump rally.
But they did notice some kind of security team inside the building on the second floor. The windows for the second story were open so that the team of snipers inside had a clear view of the Trump Rally field.”
Where we left off last night late at the end of our Monday thread was with some tweets from a CBS reporter Olivia Rinaldi and a live blog from CBS. The way this news is presented is rather disjointed with mish mash of information crammed together. It certainly does not read like a cohesive piece but it is telling a very strange story of what occurred in Butler PA. By all means read it yourself but your going to have to keep plowing through it to get to the salient parts as it is disjointed IMO or maybe I don’t understand modern writing. For the above reason I’m going to provide the basic out line. In the building that Crooks fired from were 3 local police department snipers inside the same building Crooks fired from. They had visual contact with Crooks two to three times as Crooks sat outside the building fiddling with a range finder. At one point Crooks left but returned minutes later carrying a bag. Shortly after the police sniper team went outside after being alerted someone had gone up on the roof. When they went out and looked up onto the roof is when the cop looking got faced off by Crooks with Crook’s rifle turning on him. The cop dropped to the ground and before they could get back up on the roof, Crooks was already firing at the President, approximately 8 shots. Now we switch over to the Snipers we’ve all been seeing with vids and pictures. That sniper team never got off a shot apparently. The ones that shot Crooks were on the roof of the other building next to theirs. They were covering the other side of the venue but readjusted when Crooks started shooting and engaged after the other team failed to engage and it is them that killed Crooks with one shot.
Other source showing the other SS Sniper team engaging Crooks
While much attention has been on one of the Secret Service Sniper teams posted closest to the shooter, line of sight analysis indicates a second team, here, was more likely responsible for the return fire that killed President Trump’s would-be assassin.
In the above video you see Trump is still talking before the shooting. You also see the SS sniper team is already deployed from their primary sector of fire to their secondary sector of fire which means two things. Both sniper teams on both roofs knew about the threat before Crooks fired. For what ever reason the closest SS sniper team did not take a shot so the other team took it for them.
Here’s some conversation from the tweet in case you can’t read it. Some disambiguation on if it was this team or one much farther away then these two teams. These two are 120m and about 180m away and they are talking about another team about 400 plus meters away. Which is still close for well trained snipers given their gear.
If there were line of sight issues with that specific roof top and building, the fact that it wasn’t secured or constantly monitored is a major lapse in security and seems negligent.
Next question, how does one have knowledge of the threat, location of target, eyes on target, and yet security detail doesn’t move in to protect their man. Now, does that sound routine?
The video of the other team looked like they were taking cover from shots. Never looked like they were shooting. These guys look far more likely. Good post.
Erik Prince said the sniper who took out the shooter was 488 yds away. Likely from an angle that had visibility on the shooter who had cover behind the ridge of a roof from these guys.
Seems more plausible. You don’t risk bad shots when your teammate has a lock on a perfect one.
I know some people are saying its the same shooters but The guys in one shot seem to be wearing boonies hats and the guys in the other shot seem to be wearing baseball caps. Or maybe I’m missing something
And that makes sense depending on what side of the roof slant the shooter was on. People keep pointing out sniper team one wasn’t firing but they were probably trying to get comms confirmation shooter wasn’t another sniper team.
So they were totally disorganized.
WolfM00n
….this point.
Crooks wasn’t stupid, to go up on the building where cops were operating from. That is extremely devious and smart. Note that he was not only boldly claiming the best vantage point – he was forcing the countersnipers to FIRE BACK ON THEIR OWN.
Think about that. He used a contradiction to suppress USSS fire. It was not incompetence. It was a brilliant strategy, programmed into him with MK technology.
We are up against some brutal adversaries, who know the USSS playbook, and have overcome it by a combination of agency weakening and strong MK tech.
Here’s what happened in PA. MK-seduced “wanna-be assassin”, possibly “overshadowed” with “professional assassin(s), use BlackRock-owned facility as backdrop/stationing area to try and kill President Trump. Stationing area on roof of building hidden by “sudden” appearance of tall, thick trees (in contrast to the rest of the greenery around the building.) Possible “professional assassins” are stationed on water tower of facility. “President Biden’s” handlers create “Jill Biden speech at local Italian-American League dinner” TO BE GIVEN ON THE SAME DAY as the assassination attempt on President Trump. DHS and DEI-led USSS “possibly collaborate” to “divert” USSS protection for President Trump over to “Jill Biden speech at Italian-American League dinner.” “Substitute” USSS team for President Trump includes some real USSS + untrained / unqualified / DEI hires from other departments. Local LEO ** possibly ** told to “stand down” if “persons with ill intent” are noticed at President Trump’s rally. USSS snipers at President Trumps’ rally literally wait until “wanna-be assassin” and/or “professional assassin” make their first shots BEFORE engaging. “Wanna-be assassin” becomes room temperature. USSS “substitute team” at President Trump’s rally remove him from the scene. Removal clumsily and unsafely done — President Trump was exposed to more potential gunfire during the removal. At least two female “substitute USSS” ringers, too short and/or overweight, either panic or act unprofessionally. Any questions?
Google Maps street view of that location. It is from November 2023, the date is shown. This even shows the “new” looking mulch under the trees:

another theory SeekerOfTruth July 15, 2024 9:49 am
Rule #1 – Follow the money. Possible theory below. BlackRock reveals link to failed Trump assassin The shooter appeared in a commercial for the investment behemoth Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspect in Saturday’s attempted assassination of former US President Donald Trump, featured in a 2022 ad for BlackRock, the investment giant has revealed. There you have it! Let’s do the math. Black Rock bought the best assets in Ukraine for 10 cents on a dollar. Practically a theft. It enrolled the neo-Nazi regime. Unleashed NATO and ISIS. All to protect its investments. There comes Trump saying he will stop the war in 24 hours, forcing Ukraine to settle the conflict. Black Rock will lose billions if that were to happen. They dust off their shooter who appeared on their commercial and was not paid on the books – but off the books. Wait… there is more. Black Rock calls its CIA assets to direct the Secret Service to ‘loosen up’ the security around Trump. This is why there were security mishaps, designed to allow the shooter to fire his shots. So, to stop the shooter from talking and revealing his Black Rock connection, he was shot dead. All scripted by Black Rock, but there was poor execution. Black Rock is the one behind Ukraine war, there are others too. Last, do not count on an investigation or punishing the masterminds. They are the government within the government! Major conspiration similar to the one that killed JFK. his brother, MLK, Malcom X and John Lennon. Trillions of dollars are at risk. Blackrock has long wanted to steal the Rich mineral and Agriculture assets of Ukraine. and there you have the motive and setup. Large corporations control the government and other military and intelligence entities needed to make easy money for themselves (CEO and executives). PS. The secret service is now a diversity DEI hiring group. Enough said about their performance. Bunch of bumbling keystone cops.
DEI head of the Secret Service — IMO, complicit in the assassination attempt on President Trump, perhaps?
Prison, NOW. Biden’s Secret Service director admitted the decision to leave the roof unguarded was deliberate. And her rationale is insane. Absolutely insane. You cannot come to any other conclusion than this: Biden’s Secret Service and DHS deliberately created every single condition that led to Trump nearly being assassinated. They did it on purpose. They’re admitting they did it on purpose. And they’re fine with the results, which is why no one has been fired. How long until we discover the shooter was in communication with fed informants or assets prior to the event? Pretty wild how he just happened to pick the one event with the one spot that Biden’s Secret Service deliberately kept unguarded. https://t.co/jCZdlYqQDn
Secret Service director says the decision to leave the roof unguarded was deliberate, because it was unsafe to have snipers on a sloped roof. “That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there’s a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn’t want to put somebody up on a sloped roof,” Cheatle said. The director of the U.S. Secret Service deliberately allowed the former and future president of the United States to be shot in the face because she didn’t want a Secret Service agent to be on a roof with a minimal slope.https://dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13639613/amp/Secret-Service-director-wasnt-roof-gunman.html
https://media.scored.co/post/NnncyLqK8E4A.png
https://media.scored.co/post/NnncyLqK8E4A.png
The other issue is whether the roof has enough of a slope to be dangerous to anyone who was on it. Someone posted this pic, which is basically a flat roof.
https://media.scored.co/post/wvfZc5RuJDhy.png
Everyone needs to see this photo to appreciate the tactical negligence that occurred during the assassination attempt on DJT. This photo was taken just minutes before the first shots were fired. DJT is oriented towards the shooter at this point.
Look in the upper left of this photo. That is the building. Look how fucking close it was. Direct line of sight to DJT.
You can see my wife & I to the right of the SS agent in the front row.
There is no excuse to not have someone on that roof. None.
It amounts to the most stunning incompetence & negligence in a tactical situation that I have ever been a part of. Ever.
It’s simply incomprehensible to me how this happens.
The only thing that is more incomprehensible to me is how the Director of the Secret Service still has a job. — https://x.com/SeanParnellUSA/status/1813240829919539633
WOAH Listen To This: Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle “She has close ties to the Cheneys, the Bidens and is responsible for the J6 deleted texts scandal”
She “evacuated vice president Dick Cheney on 9/11”
You can not tell me this wasn’t an inside job
“She would know. The 28 year veteran was on the team that evacuated vice president Dick Cheney on 911, and she served on then then vice president Biden’s protective detail. He named her director in mid 2022.
New election. Amid a swirl of controversy agency deleting nearly all of its text messages from January 6th.
The agency says that was due to a data migration. System migrations happen. But I think for a lot of Americans, it just doesn’t pass the smell test given the timing and the volume of messages deleted.
Well, it’s unfortunate that that would be the assumption that people would make. Our integrity is everything, and there was nothing nefarious attached to that.“
WOAH Listen To This: Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle “She has close ties to the Cheneys, the Bidens and is responsible for the J6 deleted texts scandal”
She “evacuated vice president Dick Cheney on 9/11”
Some of this we have already heard. According to this report, the SS says it was not responsible for the rooftop where the shooter was because it was outside their perimeter. I call complete on that. There should be no outside perimeter for the SS. They should be overseeing everything.
The Butler police also say they were not responsible for that rooftop but that another local law enforcement agency was. The reporter does not know which agency that was. She says there were four cops. One of them got hoisted to the roof, looked the shooter in the eye, had a gun pointed at him, and dropped 8 feet to the ground. Because he was hanging on to the side of the building, he was not able to pull a weapon to engage the shooter and could not notify anyone.
So when the officers heard reports of a person on the roof from the rally attendees, instead of standing with the attendees and letting them show them where the guy was, they decided to peek over the side of the roof with no ladder, no ability to engage the shooter, and apparently no plan. It’s unbelievable.
NEW: Dan Bongino says an “unimpeachable source” tells him that someone was supposed to be on the roof where Thomas Crooks shot from but “didn’t show up.”
Bongino also claimed that the Biden admin is telling the USSS director to keep her mouth shut if she wants to keep her job.
“According to my source, that roof was supposed to be a police post… [there] was so supposed to be someone there.”
“They’re now making up excuses saying the pitch of the roof. My source says to me that no one knows why the post didn’t show up.”
“I was also told that the USSS director has been given instructions from the administration and the DHS secretary: ‘If you wanna keep your job, you’ll keep your mouth shut about this.’”
Why they didn’t put people on the roof of the building where Crooks shot from.
‘That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there’s a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn’t want to put somebody up on a sloped roof,’ she told ABC News in an interview Tuesday.
‘And so, you know, the decision was made to secure the building, from inside.’
Meanwhile I’m wondering how long we can keep it a secret from her that the other two locations where snipers were deployed had a march higher and sharper roof.
Or the fact that the same building complex had other roofs, one of which was flat and higher than the one chosen by Crooks and would have been a great vantage point in all directions to include the roof below them where Crooks set up.
Heck they could of tossed rocks at the guy and accomplished the mission of keeping the president safe. “plink! plink! plink! Hey you laying down there with the gun! Don’t make us come down there! . Plink! Go on get!”.
Trump rally shooting could have been MUCH worse Police and Secret Service locked themselves inside the security fence and were not able to get to Thomas Crooks. If counter-snipers had not already taken him out, he’d have time to use all his ammo on crowd
Scattered through the short article.
Shooter.
Bought a ladder.
Carried a very tall ladder past SS, to get on the roof.
Picture of the ladder against the building in the article.
Ladder barely reaches roofline.
Dope drove a Hyundai Sonata an hour to the rally site.
Article says ladder purchased was five foot ladder. <<< ???
“It’s not clear whether Crooks used the ammunition or the ladder that he bought on Saturday during his attack later that day.” However, a ladder was prominently propped up against the building where Crooks would shoot from.
Purchased 50 rounds of ammo from gun store. No mention of caliber…

They dust off their shooter who appeared on their commercial and was not paid on the books – but off the books. Wait… there is more. Black Rock calls its CIA assets to direct the Secret Service to ‘loosen up’ the security around Trump. This is why there were security mishaps, designed to allow the shooter to fire his shots. So, to stop the shooter from talking and revealing his Black Rock connection, he was shot dead. All scripted by Black Rock, but there was poor execution. Black Rock is the one behind Ukraine war, there are others too. Last, do not count on an investigation or punishing the masterminds. They are the government within the government! Major conspiration similar to the one that killed JFK. his brother, MLK, Malcom X and John Lennon. Trillions of dollars are at risk. Blackrock has long wanted to steal the Rich mineral and Agriculture assets of Ukraine. and there you have the motive and setup. Large corporations control the government and other military and intelligence entities needed to make easy money for themselves (CEO and executives). PS. The secret service is now a diversity DEI hiring group. Enough said about their performance. Bunch of bumbling keystone cops.
Here is the BlackRock commercial!
Notice that it’s connected to TEACHERS’ PENSIONS.
Thomas Crooks was in this “BlackRock” commercial while in high school.
ALARMING NEW DETAILS AROUND THE BUILDING USED BY THE SHOOTER TO ALMOST ASSASSINATE PRESIDENT TRUMP!
WHY IS THE COMPANY THAT OWNS THE BUILDING NOT TALKING? AND WHY HAVE THEY NOT RELEASED A STATEMENT?
AGR International, the building Thomas Matthew Crooks shot from, was just sold in March to a Clayton, Dubilier and Rice (CD&R)
@CDRBuilds
subsidiary called INDICOR.
It is worth noting that Joseph L. Rice III is the Founder of Clayton, Dubilier & Rice. Rice is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and he is also a member of the Brookings Institution, the same Brookings institute
@BrookingsInst
that has perpetuated lawfare campaigns against President Trump in an effort to keep him off the ballot for the 2024 Presidential election.
It’s important for people to understand how the DEEP STATE has a history of using proprietary companies as cutouts.
According to filings and their own press releases, Indicor was officially formed in Jan 2023 by CD&R, who just partnered Jon Selib
@Jselib
.
Prior to joining CD&R, Jon Selib was the Senior Vice President of Global policy and public affairs and Pfizer, a position he remained in until 2022.
As the Senior VP of Global policy and public affairs for
@Pfizer
, Selib was a MAX DONOR to Joe Biden’s campaign when he ran against President Trump.
The current CEO of Indicor is Doug Wright, who was previously deployed with defense contractor Raytheon Technologies. Doug Wright, CEO of Indicor, confirmed that “law enforcement was on the premises of the building before the shooting took place”, since it was deemed to be a high security risk location by the Secret Service. Wright also said the office was closed on the day of the attempted assassination of President Trump.
Roberto Quarta is the Chairman of the Private Equity group (CD&R) that owns Indicor/AGR. His photo is listed on the World Economic Forum (WEF)

website.
Oddly enough, John Stroup the Indicor Chairman and CD&R partner, recently announced his resignation from the board of directors of Crane Company on June 5th, 2024, effective July 22nd, 2024.
On March 18, 2024, the change of registered office by entity for the building the shooter shot from was changed to “Corporation Service Company”. Corporation Service Company is registered as a foreign business corporation in Delaware.
In December 2023, CD&R made Jon Selib a partner, after he joined CD&R in 2022. Selib was the former chief of Staff to Democrat Montana Senator Max Baucus
@MaxBaucus
(D), the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. In 2013, Barack Obama chose Senator Baucus to be the US ambassador to CHINA.
Selib spent 12 years working in the US Senate and became Chief of Staff to Senator Baucus after Baucus’ former chief of staff Jim Messina left to fill the same position for Democrat Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.
In 2020, Ambassador Baucus went on CNN and said President Trump’s rhetorical attacks on China make him “a little bit like Hitler” when President Trump was blaming China for the COVID outbreak.
Ambassador Baucus currently lives in Bozeman, Montana, where he and his wife, Melodee Hanes, formed a consulting firm called Baucus Group LLC. Ambassador Baucus provides consulting services to American and Chinese businesses and he serves on the Board of Directors of Ingram Micro, and the Board of Advisors to the Chinese Communist Party owned Alibaba Group. https://x.com/LauraLoomer/status/1813962283673903535/photo/3

NEW REPORT
ALARMING NEW DETAILS AROUND THE BUILDING USED BY THE SHOOTER TO ALMOST ASSASSINATE PRESIDENT TRUMP!
WHY IS THE COMPANY THAT OWNS THE BUILDING NOT TALKING? AND WHY HAVE THEY NOT RELEASED A STATEMENT?
And through the tangle of it all one word jumps out “Pfizer”

Excellent. All speculation, but it’s speculation in the right direction.
CUI BONO.
Reader’s Digest version from the article.
“Malice Or Massive Incompetence”: Erik Prince Gives Detailed Assessment Of Secret Service Failure Former Navy Seal and Blackwater founder Erik Prince gave a detailed assessment of yesterday’s Secret Service debacle in the wake of a failed assassination attempt on former President Trump.
DJT was not saved by USSS brilliance.The fact that USSS allowed a rifle armed shooter within 150yds to a preplanned event is either malice or massive incompetence.
The law enforcement sniper (unclear if USSS) in newsreels was clearly overwhelmed as his face came off his rifle instead of doing his job to kill the shooter.
Clearly USSS failed at the basics of a secure perimeter and once shots were fired their extraction was clumsy and left DJT highly exposed to follow on attacks
Merit and execution must be the only deciding factors in hiring and leadership, not the social engineering priority of the day.
When looking at the circumstances in favor of Thomas Matthew Crooks, the identified alleged suspect in the attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Butler, PA, it’s hard to see how the guy failed.
The rooftop used by Crooks was a mere 140 yards away from the event with a clear line of sight to the right of Trump.
The Secret Service is supposed to secure all obvious “sniper perches” well before the arrival of a protectee –
The idea of Crooks being able to get that close with an elevated position on the stage is unthinkable.
Finally, there’s the dismal lack of response time.
That building was supposed to be secured by local police. The snipers in the pic were local cops. They knew that. At first, they thought it was one of their guys, doing the same job they were doing.
One of the sniper cops lifted his head from a ready-to-shoot position to get a different look at the rooftop person, probably because he heard people yelling and pointing at the killer’s perch. They didn’t realize he was a threat until the killer took his shots.
They immediately fired on the killer, although the actual neutralizing shot could have come from USSS sniper team at a different location.
Two trillion dollar deficit, massive budget increase for IRS, yet USSS has bread-and-water rations for its budget.
Plus a D E I bitch for a leader. A cherry on top of a shit sundae.
…
Not to mention, but… President Trump should have been secured at the 1st HINT of an issue.
kalbokalbs
Candidate Trump rally Reno, NV November 2016.
Someone near the stage yelled “gun”.
SS rushed Trump off stage.
Crowd tackled the asshole. SS & LE took him away.
Slow guy in the crowd, ~100′ from excitement. No one ran.
Trump return in, I’m guessing <ten minutes.
i read this, this morning. true? not sure. but it makes sense in a way–kill a guy who’s got a telescope? seems out there, but maybe that IS their policy. I dunno.
@susancrabtree Here’s my reporting on why the Secret Service did not shoot until AFTER the shooter engaged and some context about the House Republicans’ investigation already underway (months before Trump’s assassination attempt) into whether the agency’s DEI policies are affecting its readiness. The blowback against the Secret Service started within the hour of the assassination attempt and continued even after Trump and other credited the agency with saving Trump’s life by quickly killing a shooter crawling across a nearby rooftop. But a source within the Secret Service community tells RealClearPolitics that the agency rules of engagement in this situation are to wait until the president is fired upon to return fire. “You want to take a shot then find out the guy was holding a telescope?” the source suggested. “The Secret Service is by nature reactive…and you better be right when you do react or you’re f—–d.” The Secret Service protocol requires that a counter sniper aware of a potential shooter to radio directly to intelligence division team to respond and investigate. In this case, the investigation may have been cut short by the shooter firing his weapon, so the counter sniper then fired as quickly as possible in return. The source praised the counter sniper who acquired the target and responded within three seconds, calling their performance “incredible.” “The counter snipers are highly trained and extremely accurate,” he said. Others with law enforcement and military backgrounds want to know whether the Secret Service utilized drones, i.e. small unmanned aircraft systems, to provide detailed situational awareness. If the agency did not use drones, why not, these experts ask. The use of drones has been a controversial issue within the agency since at least 2016. Implementing drones would have provided detailed line-of-site analysis and aerial surveillance that would have easily identified the rooftop as a potential threat area. “The USSS has access to all the best imagery and elevation data,” the military expert told RCP. “I’m not saying they didn’t [use drones], but it’s an open question.” The once vaunted Secret Service lost some of its former respect after a string of fence-jumping incidents and other security lapses came to light during the Obama administration. At the beginning of the Trump administration, a senior special agent in the Secret Service came under fire for suggesting in a Facebook post that she wouldn’t “take a bullet” for Trump. Kerry O’Grady, the former agent in question, was placed on administrative leave but was allowed to retire with full benefits, which outraged many in the Secret Service community. The agency, more recently, has come under scrutiny for its diversity, equity and inclusion policies, after a female agency attached to Vice President Kamala Harris’s protective detail and identified as Michelle Herczeg, had an apparent mental breakdown and physically attacked her senior officers at Joint Base Andrews before a trip. An agency spokesman called the issue a “medical incident,” but other members of the Secret Service launched a petition over the agency’s diversity, equity and inclusion hiring and vetting policies during the Biden administration, as first reported by RCP. In addition, after the attempted assassination of Trump Saturday night, conservatives blasted Rep. Bennie Thompson, the ranking Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee, for earlier this year introducing a bill co-sponsored by several other Democrats that would have denied Service Service protection to Trump if he were convicted of a felony. The measure never gained traction in the GOP-controlled House. After the attempted assassination, which killed one innocent spectator and injured at least two others, Thompson tweeted that he is “glad that the former president is safe” and is “gratefully for law enforcement’s fast response.”
Pat – this is key – this is how the bad side controls evil outcomes through good intentions.
FIRST – remember what Sundance calls them – the INTELLIGENCE BRANCH.
Now look at this quote from what you posted…..
The Secret Service protocol requires that a counter sniper aware of a potential shooter to radio directly to intelligence division team to respond and investigate.
This is how they took over DOJ, too – using the “NSD” – the National Security Division. It’s the same thing. The shadow government uses the “intelligence group” within agencies to control them.
The Intelligence Branch can control outcomes in the Secret Service.
Now keep looking at why Trump survived.
In this case, the investigation may have been cut short by the shooter firing his weapon, so the counter sniper then fired as quickly as possible in return.
This broke the USSS out of the IC control loop!!!
The source praised the counter sniper who acquired the target and responded within three seconds, calling their performance “incredible.” “The counter snipers are highly trained and extremely accurate,” he said.
That 3 seconds CONFIRMS the audio of the shots, and my assessment of the first six bullets.
Crooks fired three shots in the video I watched, at 8.0, 9.0 and 9.9 seconds, with the countersniper getting three shots back at 12.0-13.0 seconds.
The head shot to the assassin happened at 24 seconds.
This is how the wicked Comey IC takes over. SS is under shadow government control, and they use “good things” as cover for bad things.
The same IC has total compartmentalization and deniability on weakening USSS and then sending secret forces against their hobbled Secret Service. Quite evil.
New #QAnon. I believe Q to be saying “Bigger than 25th amendment attempt to remove”, meaning there have already been major assassination attempts on @realDonaldTrump, and we have evidence for these. Let’s thread down memory lane for the backstory. pic.twitter.com/juNXMT2JK9
Last year on June 12th, Q posted this photo of what looked to be a missile, saying “this is not a game”. This photo was taken June 10th overlooking Whidbey Island in WA by a weather photographer. When this was taken, Trump was on his way to the summit with N Korea in Asia. pic.twitter.com/G8wTSnbp8d
The mainstream media tried playing this off as “just a helicopter” that the photograph was taken of. The cover story Q was mentioning today. That sure looks like a photo of a helicopter to me. (not) pic.twitter.com/nOCHIrlBCY
Back on June 12th, Q then quickly gave us this saying “think hack”, which could infer that rogue actors hacked the sub that launched the missile directed at AF1 en route to Asia. pic.twitter.com/xYi0CxpwzB
Ironically on June 8th, 2 days before the “helicopter” incident, the MSM reported that “China Hacked U.S. Navy Contractor To Obtain Sub Secrets”. Were they setting up the markers for a false flag here? If POTUS was downed, blame on China? Interesting. huffingtonpost.com/entry/china-ha…
News comes a day after Trump agrees to drop sanctions against Chinese telecom giant ZTE.
Thankfully, an assassination never happened. A few hours before posting about the missile and sub on June 12th, Q gave us this photograph, which Anons determined was an original photo from Q taken over Alaska. If you zoom in, you can see it looks like the missile was intercepted. pic.twitter.com/uoN1G0u3tH
Q posted today, “Coincidence re: AF1 re: CA route NK?” A flight path from California to the Korea’s would take you over a small portion of Alaska’s Aleutian Islands, which has 57 volcanoes. More evidence that our photograph above was the missile interception. pic.twitter.com/JA2B6mYiXR
Then, in another Q post from this morning, they linked a tweet from @SevenFlamingos, who noticed that the US Army tweeted about the THAAD anti-ballistic missile defense system the same day Q brought back the June 12th “helicopter/missile” incident. What a coincidence. pic.twitter.com/TmHCXOVkwM
In a quick search on THAAD, I found this Stars & Stripes article about a successful test over the North Pacific last year. “The target missile… was detected, tracked and intercepted by a THAAD battery at Pacific Spaceport Complex Alaska in Kodiak..” stripes.com/news/pacific/a…
Kodiak, that’s right there next to the Aleutian Islands. If there was, in fact, a missile heading for AF1, the THAAD system based in Kodiak is likely what was activated to take it down >> Q’s photograph over Alaska of what looked to be an intercepted missile. pic.twitter.com/r6wPplJqpP
So let’s hypothetically say… A president for freedom, truth, and prosperity that a horribly corrupted Deep State wants to take out is on his way to North Korea. The jet that the president is in is heading from CA to Asia over the North Pacific.
They send a missile his way, hacked from a sub near Whidbey Island, WA. Missile gets taken out by THAAD missile defense systems over Alaskan islands in the North Pacific. We learn of this all through hints told via a backchannel communication line popularly known as #Qanon
Moral of the story, don’t f*ck with the military. The president is very well insulated, and him and his family are putting their lives on the line for us. These corrupted Deep State folks will go to no ends to avoid defeat, but their defeat is inevitable. Hypothetically. /end

OH, I think they do!
1. PDJT campaign to have Nasty Nan the Pigloser as Speaker of the House.
<a href=”https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/08/10/president-trump-urges-democrats-to-support-nancy-pelosi/”>President Trump Urges Democrats to Support Nancy Pelosi</a>
2. PDJT shuts down government.
3. Nasty Nan and 100 of her friends and family take a bus to the airport to catch a Government Plane to EU andthen Afghanistan. This included:
Adam Schiff, D-CA
Mark Takano, D-CA
Susan Davis, D-CA
Stephen Lynch, D-MA
Eliot Engel, D-NY
Elaine Luria, D-VA
4. While in route, PDJT orders the plane GROUNDED!
<blockquote> Hilarious Trump waited to release the letter while Nancy was en route to the airport and law makers were on a Air Force bus about to depart for the airport.

5. MEANWHILE the FIB catches a Jihadist in Atlanta GA buying anti-tank weapons, small arms and such for a planned attack on the White House and other parts of DC. (We are not told anything further, but the possibility exist the Jihadist was one of a group.) This attack could have taken out BOTH PDJT AND VP PENCE, leaving Nasty Nan as president…. Who was ‘convienently’ out of DC at the time of the attack.
From INFOWARS…
<i>”…The suspect allegedly <b>planned on using IEDs and an anti-tank rocket to inflict “mass casualties,”</b> reports WSBTV.com.
“His alleged intent was to attack the White House and other targets of opportunity in the Washington, D.C. area,” the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Georgia Byung Pak told reporters….
<blockquote>ABC News…
[…]Taheb allegedly told the informant that “jihad was the best deed in Islam and the peak of Islam,” adding that “it was not complicated at all to do jihad today,” according to the complaint.
In a meeting with the informant and an undercover FBI agent on Dec. 2, Taheb allegedly stated that “they could do more damage” in the U.S. because abroad they would be “one of many.” He also allegedly said that he wanted to be a “martyr” and cause as much damage as possible, the complaint states.
[…]<b>“He said the group would fight to the end and make it a big bang,”</b> according to the document.
[…]…He also discussed the need for <b>a “base” where they could regroup</b> and “give a speech to motivate people” and show clips of “oppressed Muslims,” the document states.
6. That this was the plan was hinted at by Nasty Nan’s claims at the time that she was CO-EQUAL to President Trump (preparing for her ascent to the White house maybe?)

As a reminder, Doug Leone of Sequoia Capital publicly voiced his support for Trump 6 weeks ago.
Sequoia Capital is the biggest US Venture Capitalist firm in China & they’ve been caught investing US Pension fund $$ into Chinese Military Tech Industries
Sequoia is largest US tech investor in China, including TikTok. Sequoia has been paying GOP members, *millions* to not investigate & to protect Adam Schiff
The biggest US investor in Chinese businesses is also one of the biggest GOP donors in the House & Senate. The man in charge of Sequoia is Doug Leone, an agent for the Chinese Communist Party.
We now know why House Intelligence Committee Representative Mike Turner protected Adam Schiff from censure.
Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy’s top donor, has become Doug Leone (and wife) from Sequoia.
Jeopardizing America’s security while funding China’s rise damages US economic growth and poses grave threat to the nation.
I can only assume that PDJT is adhering to the old adage: “Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.”
This was posted shortly after Trump was shot and is worthy of consideration:
“The building that the shooter was on is owned by AGR aka American Glass Research. They specialize in the manufacturing of various glass products. AGR was bought in March 2020 by Indicor.
Indicor’s website indicates that Indicor is a freestanding, diversified industrial solutions company formed in 2022 by CD&R. It owns and operates a portfolio of industrial businesses that provide specialized, highly-engineered, mission-critical products and solutions for manufacturers. Indicorruns their companies under the ESG Green New Deal ideology.
Indicor’s Certified Equity Professional is Doug Wright, who used to work for Raytheon, Honeywell and Ingersoll Rand.
Honeywell & Raytheon both refused to donate to any persons who voted against certifying Joe Biden’s 81 Million votes on January 6. Both Honeywell & Raytheon are government contractors.
Alex Soro’s infamous “assassination” tweet from January 21, 2024 features a photo of glass with a bullet hole in it and the fact that Trump’s would be assassin fired from the roof of a glass factory seems to be quite a coinky dink.
One or two mistakes is one thing. But when you have 10-plus anomalies on the same day, it certainly begins to look intentional. Here’s a summary, as provided by @McCulloughFund: 1. No local law enforcement was on the rooftop used by the shooter. 2. When law enforcement was notified by citizens of the shooter, there was no prompt action at the rooftop to neutralize the shooter. 3. Local law enforcement failed to initiate active shooter protocol to protect Trump and the crowd. 4. There was no apparent communication from local law enforcement to the USSS to get Trump to a secure location. 5. Police snipers on the roof used binoculars to track the shooter’s position and did not warn the USSS below to get Trump off the stage. 6. Police snipers under scope vision allowed the shooter to get set and shoot six rounds at Trump. 7. A police sniper got off the scope and looked with the naked eye to be sure the shooter had taken his shots and never looked down at Trump. 8. Finally, a police sniper shot Crooks. 9. No local police went up on the roof immediately after Crooks was shot to take away his gun and check on his status. 10. All the while, there was no active shooter protocol, and no warning was given to Trump or the audience.
𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Austin Private Wealth with CONNECTIONS to the Bush family shorted 12M shares of $DJT via a put option on July 12, just ONE DAY before the assassination attempt. Did the Bush’s know something was going to happen to Donald Trump? This massive trade represents 6% of total shares and over 16% of the float, given Trump’s 60% ownership. Their $1B AUM makes this a significant bet. Austin Private Wealth is connected to the Bush family through James A. Baker III, a Senior Policy Director with longstanding ties to the Bushes, having served as Secretary of State under George H.W. Bush and in various roles under Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. George W. Bush has strongly shared his support AGAINST Trump despite everything happening in our country. While these connections don’t imply direct involvement, they highlight significant professional relationships.. Sources: @JoshWalkos, @Gene_SD

Hawley Reveals New Whistleblower Allegations Exposing ‘Loose’ Security Ahead of Trump Assassination Attempt
Friday, July 19, 2024
Today, U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), wrote a letter to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, demanding answers behind the U.S. Secret Service’s botched security rollout at President Donald Trump’s July 13 rally. The letter comes after multiple whistleblowers contacted Senator Hawley’s office with disturbing new information behind the assassination attempt on the former president.
21:30, Gardner mentions the shorting of Trump stock and ALSO RUMBLE. [Think Game Stop and the attempted destruction of that company]
21:58 is the actual Bongino Clip
“There is a serious dispute right now going on with the SS. The SS knows that there were some lapses on the side of locals.
There were — TIMEOUT –IT IS THE SECRET SERVICES FAULT It’s their job to secure the Presidents life, I get that, period.
They do have local partners however. There were some significant lapses. Here’s What I’m hearing. There is an Actual Text Record, so it’s not disputable. there’s text. Phone text, you know what I mean right? That this threat may have been recognized at about 05:01 PM an hour before Donald Trump got on stage. And there are some people telling me that there was a failure in the beginning to properly get that information out. I’m just telling you what I am hearing.
And let me give you the other side. The Locals and some of the Butler County officials are disputing that saying, Hey, we told the secret service about the threat and they didn’t do anything. That is going to come out in the wash, once we get these records FOIA’d and out in the public. [GOOD LUCK WITH THAT DAN. I am sure they are already shredded and wiped, “Like with a cloth”. -GC] You’re going to see via the text record who was notified when and what was done about it. I’m hearing from Secret Service sources that it was roughly a 1/2 an hour. In other words, 5:31 before they got a picture of this potential threat.
Folks again this is coming from the top.
Now, the Secret Service has a political problem right now. The political problem is serious. The Secret Service needs local partners to do protection. Follow me, because this is really important.
They can not do their job without local police departments. NYPD, LAPD…Butler county. It’s not possible. The Secret Service has what 5 to 6000 agents now, or when I was there it was like 3000 or so. It is not physically possible to do presidential protection with out Law Enforcement.
They are not only partners, they are integral partners. You get what I am saying? They are in a real Political Quandary Right Now. And I do not feel bad for anyone… They SCREWED UP PERIOD.
They do not want to throw the locals under the bus after they appeared to throw the locals under the bus. So they are in this bind right now.
Now my advice to them, if you’re listening right now is Ladies and Gentlemen the truth doesn’t have an agenda. The Truth is the Truth. Just tell the Truth.
I get it. Local Partners in the future are probably going to be pissed off and we’re going to have to mitigate a lot of that and do liaison wor But you got to fix this thing.
So I’m hearing again that there was some communications failure, but there is again, Media people are you writing this down? There is a Text Record Documenting this. That there was some failure to notify about the threats.
Stephen Gardner: As I mentioned a few minutes ago, Senator John Barrasso, who has been up dated, as part of a committee member, he said they knew of the shooter one hour before. They had snipers on him 20 minutes before. So there is a record of all of this stuff.
Dan: Second I have it confirmed from a source that there was no or very limited drone surveillance that day. There was no aerial, No effective aerial surveillance plan, basically what so ever. aerial surveillance would have detected this threat on the roof.
I’ve told you over and over again, I’m going to get to this in a second in with a secret service memo that was sent to me that’s going to prove to you that there couldn’t have been an air security personnel there because they changed the plan after we highlighted it. There was no drone.
So we can now confirm that. Which is an Absolutely ABOMINABLE SECURITY PLAN.
Stephen Gardner summarizes:
There were no dogs sniffing around [Explosives, gun powder?]
The additional snipers were in the building near Crooks.
There were no drones. SS and DHS sent no aerial/drones. But you know who had drones? Somebody who was up on the water tower.
Now 10 wittnesses have come forward, not family, not friends, at different times. Coming forward to authorities telling them “We saw somebody on the water tower just as Trump was being shot.”
I could not get the video to load. however if you go to google maps 3D, the water tower perfectly aligns with shooting Donald Trump. The roof and water tower align from different angles…. There is a video of the person on the Water tower appearing and disappearing at the same time you can hear pop pop…pop pop… We are not being told the full truth…but it gets weirder.
According to the FBI crooks has 3 encrypted bank accts overseas. [I thought the first story was encrypted phones -GC] WHY? What is a 20 year old doing with encrypted international bank accts?….. Was he a distraction the entire time so someone from the Water Tower could take shots? I do not know….
Stephen Gardner: Madcow said Poll out today of African Amer. Women showing that there has been a 31% DROP from 2020 to 2024 in terms of plans to vote for Biden.
Second video from Singingsoul1

~ 2:30 JD Vance fought in Iraq, thought he got lied to. I talked to him for hr & 1/2 before he came out against Ukraine war. I saw Karl Rove, his hands were shaking with rage when he got the news that JD was going to be the pick… US is unique, we are the only country that always has a ‘Lone Assassin’…
Multiple shooters coming out, Red flag Security lapses. A sign of a false flag is unusual and unexpected security lapses. That means someone on the inside is making sure certain events can occur.
Looks to me, multiple shoots, shots were excellent shots from sniper perspective…. When Trump stood and said Fight, Fight Fight he was signaling HE KNEW. Since then he is talking to RFK Jr about incorporating his vaccine policy. Talked to RFK jr about Biden asking why did you turn your head Don… gets leaked. Picks JD and accelerates nomination to Mon instead of Thurs.
I have talked to Don Jr and some other people. So I think Trump, KNOWS who wants Trump out of the way. And I think their attempt is going to backfire on them in Public Policy and a whole bunch of other ways.
I have ZERO doubts that at some level it was an inside job.
8:50 – First, many of Trump’s normal team was given the day off.
The second is the region had some high quality SS but THEY were re-assigned to Dr Jill…
The third is they had STAKED OUT THAT PRECISE LOCATION. There had been SS snipers on that roof and then they decide NOT to secure the roof… lists impossibles. [New] Had SS snipers on the roof THE DAY BEFORE and then the excuse of sloped roof...
Now coming out they IDed Crook 3 hours before because he is walking around with a range finder! … Almost like the profile of a patsy… He was so over the top that randos were screaming this guy is on the roof with a gun, minutes BEFORE he even fired a shot. They have video of him crawling across the roof! They have video of him near the building with the range finder so we KNOW he was on the SS radar.
He is acting so over the top it is being apparent he is playing a game. Can SS adequately protect a president and that president is a Trump president and he made comments on those games days before AND HE WAS GOING TO REALLY WIN THE GAME IN A SURPRISING WAY. So he is behaving like someone who is meant to be a patsy… couldn’t hit right side of barn according to tryout for rifle team.
And this guy is the one who snuck by SS & local LEOS and got off 5 or 6 shots? In THE primo location too?
So we know he was on everyone’s radar. SS was in the bldg, why were they doing nothing because we now know local Leos notified them TEN MINUTES before saying there is a guy with a gun on the roof. They all got that notice.
I do not buy the do not shoot after alerted. But the real question is WHY was Trump still on the stage AFTER THEY WERE ALERTED A MAN ON THE ROOF WITH A GUN 100 YDS AWAY???
THEY even set him UP!!
They get the notice and then say ‘Hey Don time to go up on stage!’
So the probability of incompetence as a likely explanation, when you go thru step by step, diminishes with each step.
And now we have Chris Martensen doing the sounds… [SEE: RAC contribution — https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1814095415127449600/vid/avc1/1280×720/3FjK8z8DFZjvqgvf.mp4?tag=14 ] and people at the scene said they heard shots from multiple locations. Some times that can be tricky.. echoes & all that. BUT Chris and other sound experts have been breaking down the sound and they are saying there are multiple shooters.
There is at least two maybe three. There may have been one on the Water Tower and there may have been someone in the building. The reason they were not taking out the supposed assassin, is because someone may have been shooting from that building. Making it difficult to know how many shots from that area and who.
As Trump said…, there were bullets still going everywhere going over me. That is more like 8 -12 shots instead of the 2 or 3 they guy should have had time to get off at all under their own time line.
Discussion about the photo of bullet path near Trump’s head… Was it flat and not angled down from roof? experts are analyzing.
CNN streaming rally live. Why was photographer taking that photo? My understanding is it was a NY TIMES photographer and had his camera speed at like 800 or what ever which is very rare. very unusual. He apparently is the same guy who caught fellow whispering in GW Bushes ear during 9/11. So this guy has a magical way of showing up during ‘interesting times’
People are curious whether the guy was tipped off. [REMEMBER the CIA has a LOT of Agents in the Fake News. -GC]
You can see how the Deep State would want Trump killed in a public way. The message was: “DO NOT EVER MESS WITH US!”
The message was, not only will we bankrupt you and indict you, we will FLAT OUT MURDER YOU!
After all that is what they did to JFK, RFK, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, ALL those assassinations at some level had govt complicity and conspiracy. The only question… is what is the scale and scope…. AND I think Trump knows it. You have seen a different tone from him… Thankful to be alive but he will be more aggressive than he might otherwise have been.
His reach out to RFK jr signaled that. Pick of JD Vance signaled that.
The cases to bankrupt him, to put him in prison did not shake him up very much. These are crap political cases and will get overturned at a higher level. But the attempt to assassinate him DID WAKE HIM UP. And you saw… “We need to do some radical change in America” AND he is much more committed to it…
18:30 Rebel Capitalist : Robert, Can you explain the Patsy roll not just this time but thru out history…
And I quit there.
History of assassinations 18:20 t0 24:28
Rebel Capitalist: Can you explain the Patsy role a little bit better. Not just Sat but thru out history. Because that will be the Push back. If that is the Deep State doing this, why on earth would they use this kid who can not hit the broad side of a barn, 20 years old, some say with an inadequate weapon. Why wouldn’t they have a guy there who could get the job done….
Also motivation for the kid? “what’s in it for him?”
Barnes: So there are already inconsistent stories about the kid. So we will start with the profile of a Patsy…. Every great crime needs a great patsy. Particularly a political crime. You need a convenient narrative script. A design. You need somebody that the event can be blamed on that won’t implicate powerful actors, institutional actors, government actors… Ad preferably THEY DIE. So they can never talk. Lee Harvey Oswald shot before he could meaningfully talk. The Vegas Shooter, we will never know if it was even him because he got shot before he could talk.
In America there is a profile pattern of trying to blame a SINGLE CRAZY ASSASSIN for an event. Or in some cases 2 or 3. But it is always some ‘crazy people’ involved….[gives examples] They usually have mental illness issues.
Rebel Capitalist: Legitimate!
Barnes: Yeah and there is already information. With this kid his parents were both mental health councilors which is a little weird.
You can go back to the Manchurian Candidate film, The Parallax View[1974] which Warren Beatty starred in that hinted at this kind of thing in the early 70s because people were wondering how some crazy person keeps getting in and murdering prominent critics of the Military Industrial Complex.
WHY don’t the Crazy People ever kill the Military Industrial Complex? Right? Why isn’t it THOSE GUYS? Why isn’t it the Federal Reserve???
No one has EVER thought to assassinate anyone in the Federal Reserve?? [LOL from Rebel Capitalist] It is just the CRITICS of the Federal Reserve. I am sure that is just a coincidence.
So, they need someone who is a little bit crazy who is a loner, doesn’t have a lot of friends. doesn’t have a lot of family, Doesn’t have a lot of people who can COUNTER THE NARRATIVE. Who can say “No, No this doesn’t make any sense.” And he fits that pattern.
But you are right, these are people you would RARELY trust to be able to pull something like this off.
I was intrigued by Trump talking last night. Saying when he was on the ground, there were still bullets coming. That means someone who was very very good, kept shooting…. That would suggest that did not come from that kid.
His [The Kid’s] social media was non-existent which is very rare in these times.
Rebel Capitalist: They can’t find ANYTHING on him. you mean you can’t find his cell phone record? You do not have a text to a buddy? Every time you have a crazy you have a Manifesto. If he is not leaving any trail, what is his motivation? I mean he KNOWS he is going to die, so that [a manifesto] would be the only motivation. It was to make yourself look like a hero. You are a nobody but this is how you can be a somebody.
Barnes: EXACTLY. That is the usual profile of your mass school shooters and the like. And now TAKE A GUESS what they ARE going to blame on him in a certain way?
If you are the Deep State what sort of an ENEMY, institutional ENEMY if you will?
Rebel Capitalist: Gun Control or something?
Barnes: CRYPTO!
[NOW the Windows CRASH and INDIA CRYPTO LOSS makes a bit more sense! – GC]
That he has CRYPTO ACCOUNTS. So some how CRYPTO is part of the reason for the assassination. That is his reason for the attempt on Trump.
Rebel Capitalist: Is this the narrative that is coming out? I have not heard of this!
Barnes: Nods yes.
YES! The only thing they have found so far, they could not get thru the encrypted aspects of his phone.
Rebel Capitalist: How could you not? Are you kidding me? How could the SS, CIA, NSA, I do not know who is in charge of that, the kids 20 yrs old! It is not like he is Jason Borne for heaven sakes! How do you NOT get into his phone? [Remember back doors?? – GC]
Barnes: This kid has very little foot print, but according to the new report, he had 3 secured crypto accts. around the world. And so the goal is to say: “SEE this is what happens when people use Crypto! They become assassins!” [Hmm Kinda explains Sam Bankman-Fried getting hung out to dry. -GC]
One minute Bitcoin, the next minute they want to kill the president. It is that kind of logic. I figured they would try to demonize crypto some how. And maybe that is the link to Iran. Some how this guy was paid by Iran. And they did it using crypto because Crypto is ONLY FOR CRIMINALS. Good Honest people only use Central Banks and their money and their banking institutions. Because that is a great way to secure your money [Said snickering] And so that is the next step in the narrative.
And the CIA leaked over the weekend that Iran had been making threats and plans to assassinate Trump…
To round it out do not miss Wolfie’s comment about the Church.

Sean Davis @seanmdav Here’s an abbreviated list of extremely basic factual questions about the Trump assassination attempt that for some reason haven’t been definitively answered (anonymous leaks don’t count): 1) What make, model, and caliber of firearm was used, and when/where/by whom was it purchased? 2) What make and model of ammo was used (including the weight of the bullet used)? 3) Did the rifle used have any type of magnified optic or red dot sight on it, and if so, what make/model, and what exact setting was the optic on when the shooter used it? 4) Have authorities put identical rounds through the rifle with the identical optics settings and confirmed both the zero and the result of shots fired at the range at which they were fired on Saturday? 5) How many shell casings were recovered from the crime scene? How many remaining rounds were in the magazine that was found in the rifle? 6) How many rounds were fired by the shooter on the warehouse rooftop? Has each round been accounted for (i.e., do investigators know where each round landed, and does the number of bullets found or accounted for match the number of shell casings found? 7) Have investigators confirmed, via the recovered bullets and the known trajectory of the bullets, that the shooter on the rooftop fired each one? 8) Have investigators reconstructed the shooter’s precise movements over the past days, weeks, and months? If so, have they put together a list of every person with whom he interacted over that time period, but in person and virtually or online? 9) Have investigators reviewed video surveillance of the shooter at all various locations he recently visited (e.g., gun range, gun dealer, restaurants, traffic cameras, etc.)? If so, have they canvassed and interviewed each person seen with the shooter?
These aren’t difficult questions to answer. These are usually the types of details promptly provided by authorities in the days following shocking, violent events of national importance. Yet we do not have a single one of these questions definitely answered on the record by an official authority. Not one. Why the heck not?
SUMMARY – In addition to bringing explosives, a detonator, a ladder, a range finder, a backpack and an AR15 rifle to the rally, while finding a way to sit atop the counter-sniper position, the 20-year-old without a social media footprint apparently had air superiority.
(Via Wall St Journal) […] The gunman who tried to kill Donald Trump was able to fly a drone and get aerial footage of the western Pennsylvania fairgrounds shortly before the former president was set to speak there, law-enforcement officials briefed on the matter said, further underscoring the stunning security lapses ahead of Trump’s near assassination. Thomas Matthew Crooks flew the drone on a programmed flight path earlier in the day on July 13 to scour the Butler Farm Show grounds ahead of Trump’s ill-fated rally, the officials said. The predetermined path, the officials added, suggests Crooks flew the drone more than once as he researched and scoped out the event site. […] The use of the drone was just one way in which authorities have said Crooks planned his attack. Crooks, described by friends as very smart yet withdrawn, began researching the site shortly after the Trump campaign announced the rally on July 3, and registered for the event on July 7, officials said. He visited the farm show grounds a few days later to scope it out.
On July 13, officials said, he returned with a pair of homemade bombs that appeared to be designed to be set off by remote control, as they were fitted with a receiver like the kind used to set off fireworks remotely. Investigators found the rudimentary explosives in Crooks’ car parked close to the grounds, along with a ballistic carrier, or vest, with three, 30-round magazines in it, an indication that he might have wanted to cause greater carnage.

Who was on that WATER TOWER?” 10 Witnesses Come Forward | Redacted with Clayton Morris (14 minutes)
at 5:20:
Senators got private meeting. Marsha Blackburn: SS KNEW about a threat PRIOR to POTUS Trump walking out on stage.
So let me see if I have this Crowdstrike story straight…. When Hillary Clinton was Sec. of State, she was illegally funneling sophisticated weapons through Libya to terrorists in the MidEast in an effort to take out Assad in Syria for Israel.
When the weapons transfer went sideways and the US Ambassador was killed in Benghazi, it was discovered she was using an illegal private server for secret communications.
She destroyed the server, but not before its contents were leaked by Wikileaks, including communications about bizarre occult rituals and inexplicable code words involving children and pizza. Instead of investigating the leak themselves, the FBI relied on a Crowdstrike investigation that falsely claimed the server was hacked by Russia.
The FBI cleared HC despite admitting she broke the law, and launched the Russiagate investigation, using more fake Clinton campaign disinfo to tie Trump to Russia to get a FISA warrant and spy on Trump while leaking dirt to the press to undermine first his campaign, then his presidency.
When Trump had a call with Zelenskyy and asked about Crowdstrike, a “whistleblower” falsely claimed quid-pro-quo and launched the first impeachment to stop Trump’s inquiries. (It was in the midst of this impeachment trial, btw, when Event 201 took place.
But that’s another story.) Fast forward to 2024 and Trump is dominating Biden when he miraculously survives a deep state orchestrated assassination attempt two days before the RNC. Two days later Crowdstrike causes the biggest computer network crash in all of history, knocking millions of corporate and government systems offline for hours.
Other than the fact that Blackrock owns Crowdstrike and a Blackrock affiliated investment firm placed millions of dollars betting against DJT in the hours before the assassination attempt by a shooter who was featured in a Blackrock promo, did I miss anything?

How to Distinguish a Key Principle of Reason, Logic and Science, from Irrational Exuberance in Contrarian Explanation
I really try to avoid using the term crackpot.
In science, the term crackpot is a bit like the terms Nazi, pedophile, and antisemite are in politics. The word freezes conversation. It strikes fear – often very unfairly – into all who are listening. Indeed, it is used in science for that very reason. Crackpot is very similar to the word crank, only worse. Using it in regards to a single person rarely helps, and using it against the wrong person can actually hurt – both the individual, and science as an enterprise.
As a young but very real scientist, I met MANY emerging young crackpots, who considered me a potential sounding board – and I like to think that I converted most of them to either outright scientists, or scientifically literate aficionados of real science. In fact, I don’t recall ANY junior crackpots who I could not make more logical and scientific by patience, understanding, and teaching of the sublime joys of REAL understanding and discovery.
More than that, was the GOOD that crackpots did for me. By patiently trying to understand what crackpots were saying, I invariably walked away a better scientist. Errors don’t just force you to ask ONE right question – they force you to ask MANY excellent questions. Sometimes it requires the patience of Job, but that’s just one more reason why reading my Bible has been so helpful.
Crackpottery, analyzed deeply, always leads back to real science, often including things I didn’t know, or didn’t know well enough. Most crackpot science is – in my experience, one of three things: (1) some very illustrative, useful, and “teachable” error, or (2) some well-known and very beautiful aspect of science or mathematics, which seems novel, but isn’t, or (3) some kind of “old science” which is very intuitive, but is now understood to be wrong.
Of course, there can be many layers of JUNK on top of the key scientific mistake, as the crackpot uses even more crackpot ideas to hold everything together, as the key idea fails. However, I would not want to laugh too loudly about such a dubious tactic, as “Bondo and paint” are also used very effectively in real science, politics, and law.
Sometimes, when discussing crackpottery in science, I like to say this.
“There is a potential scientist in every crackpot, and a potential crackpot in every scientist.”
I find that crackpot ideas are a great introduction to a conversation about real science. The trick is turning the exuberant crackpot away from the dopaminergic lust of superficial logical connections – and getting them addicted to the patient romance of deep conceptual relationships and understanding. If the latter reminds you of real love – Biblical, academic, humanitarian, or philosophical – you are absolutely right. I believe it is our duty, as people who LOVE science and math, to elevate crackpots from their trap, even if we fail, but in the process, to “teach to the fourth wall”. And that is exactly what I’m doing now.
The hot pants of OMG / string of buzzwords / “maybe this stuff is all related and I can see it” is the addictive pseudoscientific experience that crackpots cannot get out of their minds. But let them experience a “fellow scientist” showing them that they are TRULY CORRECT about something that they said, and how this idea was explored by famous scientists in history, and you can begin the process of instilling the DISCIPLINE that the crackpot so sorely needs.
Reforming a crackpot can take days, weeks, months or years. The key is to nurture the healthy joys that come from disciplined understanding, as a substitute for the toxic buzz of loose conjecture rooted in loose quasi-understanding.
Some crackpots are beyond help, and scientists who are teaching to more open minds (think about our own SteveInCO) cannot afford to waste their time on those few minds that will never attain self-skepticism within this lifetime. Walking away from crackpots who have very intentionally broken and super-glued the keys of reason in the corresponding locks, is simply necessary.
I get this. For all my criticisms of Neil deGrasse Tyson, and scientific disagreements with him, I completely understand his need to tell Terrence Howard to “move along, thank you” and to stop listening to the nonsensical ideas of Terryology.
Note that Joe Rogan does NOT get this, and he will need to be gently schooled on this point. I admire that Joe will listen to Terrence, but Joe is also a bit too easily swept up into Terrence’s world of delusional mumbo-jumbo.
Terrence Howard and Terryology are where we begin this discussion.
To be brief, Terrence was known more as an actor than as a pseudoscientist, but when he appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience, he exploded into the national consciousness. I am including the entire 3-hour interview, but I strongly caution against watching the whole thing without having some of the context I’m going to provide. On the other hand, a few random clicks will give you the flavor in a most enlightening way.
Terrence Howard – Full Interview on The Joe Rogan Experience
Terrence Howard is clearly a nice guy, and I am certain that I could be his friend. We might even have some profound discussions about the periodic table, as he comes very close to real science there, and THAT is where I would strike to try to reform him (see sidebar in Appendix). However, he is unlikely to ever gain the discipline of self-skepticism, to temper his equally welcome skepticism of scientific orthodoxy. The best that can be done, is to use him as a living example of an important dysfunction in science, and to educate the masses by reacting to him.
Surprisingly, that works really well, and that’s why I’m here.
Terrence is (in my humble opinion) a living example of the idea that a little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing.
Terrence is an actor, but before that, he ALMOST became a scientist – specifically, a chemical engineer. However, at the exact moment when accepting some discipline from his teacher would have helped him become a true scientist, he rejected the teaching, and dropped out of school.
To get to the heart of that break, Terrence believes that, because 2 times 2 equals 4, 1 times 1 should equal 2. Now, I will admit that the feeling that something should be different is extremely useful in scientific discovery, but we also know from experience that should is extremely dangerous in almost any context. Psychologists routinely repair people by getting them to understand that their list of shoulds has grown too long and nonsensical to be mentally and physically healthy.
Terrence claims that the issue of this mathematical argument is why he dropped out of college – that his teacher could not accept this new form of math, which is part of what Terrence calls Terryology.
I have no idea if that account is true, or the full story, and I strongly suspect that Terrence was having more trouble than just a disagreement with his teacher over math. There is even some doubt that Terrence was ever in college, but let’s just set that aside, and assume that Terrence did start to attend college. It is very likely that Terrence had a bad understanding of math at very basic levels, and was not able to follow the teachers in his classes, due to that faulty understanding. However, in the hubris of academic freedom, which new students often experience, I suspect that Terrence basically went off the rails. Here is a teacher talking about his theory of Terrence’s defective education.
Many people think that Terrence is conflating addition (where 1+1=2 and 2+2=4 are true) with multiplication. I have my own theory – that Terrence is simply intuiting a new operation – unfortunately rather ill-defined – which is basically y=2x but poorly expressed as y=x*x or y=x^2 (y equals x squared).
And once I realized this, I noted something else.
If you ever had any differential (first semester) calculus, you may have noted that y=2x is – more or less – the first derivative of y=x^2 (y equals x squared).
This video explains what that means.
My explanation of Terrence’s idea would then be that the thing that should be 2 at 1, but is also 4 at 2, is in fact the derivative of self-multiplication – not self-multiplication itself.
I’m definitely NOT saying that Terrence Howard “re-invented calculus”, but what I am saying is that his “invention” – in a very typical crackpot way – is in fact a personal rediscovery of something real, known, and actually very beautiful – and THAT is part of the seduction of crackpottery. Terrence is able to see it, but he doesn’t have the patience and rigor to realize what he’s intuiting, nor the language to communicate it. He TRIES to communicate it, but he fails to use the language others have agreed to use. He uses new terms – neologisms – and people almost get it, in a similar way. As Terrence piles on more analogies and scientific verbiage, people nod and make sounds of insight, but nobody really, truly, understands.
Normal people having beautiful mathematical realizations is not uncommon. Moreover, these realizations are sometimes hard to put into words. Thus, these ideas may seem novel and inventive – and they are in fact novel to the person thinking them, and they were likely inventive, to at least some extent (unless they were just badly remembered math lessons). But the idea that this new thought is a NEW INVENTION TO THE WORLD is a huge leap that is almost never true.
The aforementioned near-tangibility of crackpot ideas, and the communicability of that near-tangibility, are part of the danger of crackpottery – the fact that others “kinda get it” just like Terrence does. This crackpot virality spreads a sort of vague almost-thinking which reminds me of the feckless and far-too-innocent Eloi in H.G. Wells story of The Time Machine.
However, don’t expect me to push for “Big Sister” and her net nanny censors to crack down on crackpots. Instead, we need more people to understand math, and to see the beauty in things like y=x^2 and its derivatives.
Biology – same thing. Remember – the vague “almost tangible idea” that men can be women if we all believe they are, is another great example of a viral crackpot idea – in this case, one that the current government endorses.
Trans women are real – they just aren’t truly women, even if we all try to believe that they are. I’m not calling for censorship of that idea, either. I’m calling for no censorship on the questioning of it, just like I would call for no censorship on Terrence Howard’s ideas, nor on the criticism of his ideas.
If you have already been somewhat seduced by Terrence Howard, you really need to listen to some of his critics. That said, I recommend an attitude of love and sympathy – even when you feel frustrated and annoyed. See if you can “do better” than these two critics, in terms of sharing their ability to be skeptical of what is obviously wrong, and remaining firm in your resistance to “feeling” the truth of what Terrence is saying, while still maintaining open-mindedness, and a desire to “make Terrence make sense” – but without compromising your skepticism.
What is the key difference between scientists like me and Steve, and pseudoscientists like Terrence?
Speaking for myself, the difference for me, is that I test and beat up my crackpot ideas, so in almost all cases where my “brilliant” idea isn’t simply WRONG, I discover that I’ve rediscovered something beautiful. Very few of my crackpot ideas have value, and most of those end up being hypotheses and conjectures that are not only limited, but need more work.
In my opinion, you’re not a true scientist unless you’ve rejected literally hundreds or thousands of your own ideas – refining just a few of the survivors into something that might have some limited value.
Self-skepticism is necessary. Enough to tame crackpot ideas, but not so much as to stifle innovative thinking.
What is the difference between, say, Robert Malone, who I deeply respect as a scientist, and Terrence Howard?
In a nutshell, Malone has been skeptical of his own ideas – and at a level which required extreme honesty and moral courage. His willingness to admit that his own technological children – mRNA therapeutics and vaccines – have problems and still need work, is just mensch level eleven. Time after time, Malone sees though the bullshit of a scientific orthodoxy which has cowered before self-interest, money, and power.
Malone, like many who question the current media-and-government-driven “new consensus” in vaccine and therapeutic science, points out the hypocrisy of the sudden new orthodoxy, relative to many of its backers’ own well-established principles of ethics and morality. Examples include the Hippocratic oath, “first do no harm”, patient rights, medical privacy and freedom, and a host of other ideas which were unassailable, just a few years ago. In essence, Malone calls upon the orthodoxy to live up to its own ideals, not in the Satanic Alinsky way that actually hates and despises those ideals, but in a Godly way that deeply loves and respects those ideals.
Crackpots, in contrast, tend to reject the orthodoxy in a dismissive way, without respecting any, or most, of its underlying and fundamental tenets. They almost always fail to explain what’s wrong with the consensus view, or the underlying principles. They dismiss it without adequate explanation. In fact, crackpots who disrespect Einstein without actually doing the hard work of understanding Einstein first, are so pervasive that disrespect of Einstein is almost diagnostic for crackpottery.
Although spotting and pointing out crackpot thinking is important, it is also important for us to push back, when the crackpot term is applied unfairly to people who are simply not crackpots.
Robert Malone, who my friends and I admire, is an obvious example to us of somebody who is not a crackpot, but Neil deGrasse Tyson and Peter Hotez, who we disagree with and don’t like, are also not crackpots, if we are honest. Neil and Peter and their ilk may have other problems, including extreme bias, corruption, and compromise by unethical government involvements, but they are not crackpots.
Even when they look and sound like crackpots!
Now, there are thousands if not millions of true crackpots, most of whom labor in obscurity, and I can’t show them all, but I would be remiss not to include at least one, a man named Roger Spurr, whose awful theories have been discussed on this site very much in the last few days.
Note the disrespect for Einstein – this is very typical.
If you can’t abide listening to his very vague and loose reasoning in the video, try this website, where you can read it instead. For me, that’s easier.
Now, to be completely honest, I (and everybody else with any significant background in physics) have my own “crackpot” speculations on what may be right or wrong with the Standard Model of particle physics, as well as the top competitors for extending or replacing it. My personal crackpottery includes disrespect for supersymmetry, and massive side-eye on what I would call “irrational exuberance by the mainstream in regard to dark matter.” Nevertheless, I am always eager to test those thoughts, trash those thoughts, or modify those thoughts, based on the latest experimental results. Indeed, when the definitive experiments come in, supporting either supersymmetry or dark matter, I will be converted by them – as I should be. What I can say with certainty about Spurr’s reasoning, is that I would have thrown out nearly all of his thoughts long ago, based on the huge quantities of very solid and very basic evidence against them.
In many ways – like the term used by Wolfgang Pauli, that became (fairly or unfairly) the title of a book criticizing the non-productivity of string theory – Spurr is not even wrong.
So what is the path forward?
How do we deal with “bad science” – pseudoscience – crackpot theories – whatever you want to call them?
The Founding Fathers had a very excellent idea with Free Speech.
It is my belief that the ultimate protection against crackpottery is free speech. As long as we can criticize not only the orthodoxy, but the ideas of our fellow critics, then everything is subject to healthy sunlight. When secrecy is used to protect ideas from challenge, or government uses its punitive powers to protect its own very open crackpottery, bad things happen.
To quote a certain blog, quoting a certain scientist:
“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.”
J. Robert Oppenheimer
I’m good with sunlight, as a way to help us find truth. And I hope you are, too.
One place where Terrence Howard comes very close to actual innovative thinking is in his personal interpretation of the periodic table of the elements. This, despite many, many problems.
Terrence’s thinking about the elements is still (IMO) rather crackpot, and although his view of the table in terms of frequencies seems fascinating, it’s truly unnecessary, as his critics point out. Terrence’s few predictions are also quite wrong. Thus, his very different viewpoint is not clearly any BETTER than any other view of the elements, when gauged by the very basic metric of prediction generation. What Terrence is saying simply doesn’t appear to be useful.
HOWEVER, Terrence does come up with a very nice concept, which is hidden by his crackpot terminology, and almost lost by his inability to create a truly marketable neologism for it.
I happen to be good at neologisms, so I’ll do it for him.
As I’m watching Terrence, I am quite certain that he has “rediscovered” or “repackaged” some well-known concepts which are an important part of freshman chemistry. In particular, the concepts of electronegativity and electropositivity, which are powerful ideas about how different elements behave due to their electronics, seem to be things he’s describing.
Even more, if we accept that Terrence has rediscovered electronegativity and electropositivity, then he also seems to be proposing a very nice idea which bridges those two concepts, and which is frankly very needed, that idea being what I might call, more marketably, electroneutrality.
This is not Earth-shattering, but it’s nice.
So let me just be very clear. In a crackpot way, using bad terminology, making bad predictions, and wrapping it all in an unnecessary “musical” paradigm which most people don’t find useful at all, Terrence has still pushed a rather innovative idea – that highly “electroneutral” elements like carbon are a special thing we need to talk about in that context.
None of that is anything that my freshman chemistry professor didn’t say in different, more conventional ways. That’s exactly how I spotted it in Terrence’s ramblings. But bear in mind – that man was a true genius – with a photographic memory. He was a highly awarded and esteemed scientist, who worked on the Manhattan Project and many other such things. He was a rock star at the university. Students fought with each other and with the campus bureaucrats to get into his classes.
And while that great educator came close, but didn’t quite do it, Terrence straight-up pinpointed the fact that a curve inflection (think second derivative!) located between electronegativity and electropositivity is actually something worth conceptualizing, appreciating, and TEACHING.
I can imagine Terrence in my college chemistry class, taking that idea up to my professor, and that wonderful man not only listening and understanding through the broken terminology, but doing a complete lecture to us on what Terrence had just told him, or using it to create a test question, which he often did when somebody said something he found to be profound. I can see that same professor pushing the idea in chemical education – maybe even writing a paper on the concept. And in doing so, he would have demonstrated discipline to Terrence, showing him the true value of his thinking, and helped him to become an honest-to-God scientist.
I’m not certain if Terrence’s musical and frequency viewpoints have any real value in chemistry, but I do find them fascinating for both scientific and artistic reasons. Beyond that, the reason I don’t dismiss the possibility outright, is that Terrence put his finger on the undervaluing of electroneutrality in chemistry, using his bizarre methodology. So the fact that he came up with a worthwhile thought using it, may say something for the methodology used, especially if the latter could be cleaned up and made practical. I would bet against it, but not so much that I might not actually try to fully understand his frequency methodology at some point.
Like I said earlier, I have always gained something by trying to understand crackpots. Because, as I said, in every crackpot, there is a real scientist trying to get out and say something.
In closing, I’d like to thank Brave and Free for bringing the above video, which started all of this discussion. That is precisely why we’re here, practicing Free Speech – so that we can all learn something!
Yeah, good luck with that. Just read from here down to the TL;DR if you need to get out of here fast.
There are two main ways that people try to infiltrate this site.
One is by hacking into existing accounts by attempted logins using guesswork on credentials. We have a nice solution to that problem which I will not get into.
The second is by making comments, as either new commenters, or spoofed existing commenters, which comments have to be approved. This second form of infiltration, by comments seeking approval, is what we will discuss today.
So what is happening there?
TL;DR
Somebody just stepped up the level of phony commenting, by using AI to generate a “spam” comment which is substantially more convincing than our normal phony poster spam. It’s probably Ukrainians backed by the CIA, but we’ll never know for sure. The bottom line is that the latest AI allows non-English speakers to generate much better phony messaging, as you will see. I expect that intelligent, targeted, AI comments and “solutions” to the problem will be part of the other side’s big attack before the election.
Background
Since my recent whistle-blow about Boeing, we’ve had some obvious CIA probes, which I have mentioned obliquely in my own comments, and this incoming AI comment may actually be part of that campaign.
For those who are unfamiliar with “spam comments on blogs and websites”, I am presenting some background which others can skip over. Either way, the following sections present some history on my having to deal with spam comments. This provides context to what I just noticed.
Spam and Anti-Spam as a Pincer Move
Comments on this site are one of the primary vectors used by people trying to get into here to undermine things. By far the biggest portion of these comments are spam – people simply trying to post ads, links, and junk.
But things get worse. Beyond spam as a problem, there are fake solutions to the spam problem, and those are also very insidious. The combination of “spam and anti-spam” can be used to censor and control.
I strongly suspect that anti-AI-spam software, with a strong, designed, and desired side-effect of censorship, will be part of future problems, too.
It’s a lot like control by virus and vaccine, if you know what I mean!
Anyway, let’s dig into spam-vs-anti-spam, because it explains a lot about spam comments.
Anti-Spam as a Trojan Horse for Censorship
We have a very nice spam filter, which actually WORKS, because it’s not the phony spam filter called Akismet, which is supplied for “free” by WordPressDotCom. WordPress.com pretends that Akismet is a different company, but it’s just a dodge. Akismet is WordPress.
I spent years dealing with “bugs” in the Akismet and JetPack plug-ins, before I realized that those bugs are actually features for the other side. Akismet, for example, doesn’t like certain wonderful ladies and gentlemen on this site, such as Duchess01, scott467, GA/FL, Linda, and other commenters, both past and present. Akismet would basically hide these people’s comments as “spam”, trying to annoy them and get them to leave the site.
Imagine if Duchess wasn’t here. We would be half-naked, spiritually. And that’s not any way to be, in the middle of a spiritual war. Armor up, baby! I am SO GLAD that I fought the good fight against Akismet, and managed to keep Duchess on the site. Listening to the Lord with my heart is ALWAYS one of the smartest things I can do.
Fake anti-spam software is an amazing form of censorship. WordPressDotCom has some other ways of doing that, too, through “defects” in the JetPack plugin’s features. Those “defects” prevent people from posting. I was very fortunate that Linda’s husband knew which feature to turn off to get out of one of these “bugs”, and that was the beginning of my road to freedom from WordPressDotCom shenanigans.
Hiding weaponized software as carefully fed and watered “bugs” was a sharp gig, but it was too obvious to a developer, coder, builder, tester and debugger like me. Once I figured out that it was THEM and not us, I pressured Akismet in various ways to “fix things” for the particular people who were being locked out, despite the fact that Akismet makes this hard as hell. They slow-walked me through various processes, but each time I would up the ante of public disclosure quickly and exponentially, until they would very rapidly BTFO.
All of this was later solved by getting off WordPressDotCom and having our own, pure, WordPress DOT ORG site.
Here are three prior posts where I called out Automattic – the company behind WP.com. I got INSTANT BTFO on their censorship with these posts.
On our new site – this one – I was able to ditch Akismet for a far better spam solution, which I will not name. The spam filter isn’t perfect, but it’s close. VERY little spam gets past it.
Amazing what one can do, when one HONESTLY tries to stop spam.
But HERE is the kicker.
What spam does get past, is always VERY interesting.
Sometimes, it’s not actually spam, but something even more insidious – a targeted attempt to get a registered commenter on the site.
Let’s talk about that.
Site Infiltration Through Fake Spam
There is a level of website comment spam that is just straightforward and obvious links to websites, companies, crazy people, and malware. Stuff like VIAGRA, ONLINE GAMBLING, and CHURCH OF BABYLON FIVE REVELATION. Let’s call that “level zero“.
We’re not talking about that. Almost any anti-spam software eliminates that stuff immediately, or lets just a wee bit of it through for approval or rejection on lighter settings, to let the administrator know that the software is “on the job”.
At levels of spam intelligence beyond that, comment spam is designed to look – barely – like a legitimate NEW poster, hoping to get on the site. Most caught spam that I see (level one) looks like that. It’s often obsequious, cringeworthy, and eye-rolling. The most likely purpose is simply to get a stupid link on a website, by getting a comment approved. The main targets are self-deluded blog owners who either want comments on their site, no matter how degrading, or “want to believe” the fawning praise or mild constructive criticism offered by the phony commenters.
Here is some “normal” level one spam.
Keep up the amazing work! Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us next.
This is really interesting, You’re a very skilled blogger. I’ve joined your feed and look forward to seeking more of your magnificent post. Also, I’ve shared your site in my social networks!
Every time I read one of your posts, I come away with something new and interesting to think about. Thanks for consistently putting out such great content!
The “skilled blogger” stuff just makes me laugh out loud.
OH, NOES, DON’T FLATTER ME SOES!!!
That’s the normal spam. There is typically a web link to some sketchy client business that goes with it. Real rubes may fall for it, but most will not. If a moderator approves it, some stupid link gets posted on the internet, some spammer gets paid, and that’s that.
Sometimes we get dozens of spam comments that are absolutely identical, except for the link. Doesn’t matter – our filter finds them all and stops them.
However, it’s the spam comments that are not really spam comments that are more interesting. These are comments that – if you look a bit more closely – seem with some certainty to be the product of a real human intelligence posting. Those are “level two” and above.
These comments may even seem to be responding to individual commenters on our site – but are worded carefully, so that they are still likely to be dismissed as spam. Targeted infiltration does not want to stir up new, active, and knowing defenses on the target site.
We periodically get these out of Pakistan, but they’re probably coming from somebody else, because false attribution and spoofing are so common. Some of the phony comments are pretty ingenious, because they try to spoof (pretend to be) actual commenters on our site, like scott467 or DePat. Clearly those attackers have STUDIED this site. Thankfully, there are other “tells” that can be used to dismiss such comments.
The people behind these attacks are especially active when people are fighting and arguing here, because that is when it’s more likely that the moderator (ME!) will make a rash decision to approve a post, for various reasons. The psychology behind some of their moves seems quite intelligent.
Then there is “level three” infiltration, which has to be solved by Wolf’s Extreme Vetting. You may remember that term, which was more of a thing when there were lots of people clamoring to get on the site. We’ve had actual FBI agents and known CIA assets try to get on the site. NOPE. Ain’t gonna happen.
But let’s drop back to level two.
AI-Assisted Fake Spam
Yesterday, we got something quite interesting. We had a piece of “uncaught spam” in the “level two” bin, which had the following characteristics:
probable origin – Eastern Ukraine – Nazi area not too far from the front lines
spam alibi – shilling for an online casino gambling site out of India
AI tactic – made its pitch by discussing the site tagline from Oppenheimer
Check out the spam pitch.
This is a great quote from Oppenheimer that highlights the importance of transparency and critical thinking. Freedom of inquiry and open criticism are indeed necessary to prevent errors and move towards truth. How can I help you further?[LINK TO SPAM SITE]
I hate to say this, but that sounds much more like a real person to me, than all this other crap I’m getting. It was certainly a WAY better grade of level two spam than we normally get, and it got right past our excellent spam filters. Based on my own reaction, it was also way more effective than most infiltration attempts, which tend to get more and more instant side-eye. This spam actually based its pitch on the site itself – not just the “skilled blogger” bullshit.
It actually had me going for a fraction of a second!
And – in my opinion – the analysis of the site goes beyond just the tagline.
Who does the commenter sound like?
Quite frankly, to me, that wording sounds a lot like either Wolf Moon, or TheseTruths.
Of course, AI has no trouble “sounding like” specific, actual people. It can read this entire site in seconds.
Now THAT is targeting! By somebody who QUICKLY knew how to sound to get the “moderator” to approve the post.
This is what a slick bullshitter does. He tries to appeal to the mark by sounding like either the mark or a trusted person. If you’ve ever known criminals, they come on very quickly in that way.
The last little bit, which is much more stupid (“How can I help you further?”) throws it back into the spam category, and IMO that tag-on sentence is very intentional, so that if I the recipient’s spidey senses are being triggered, those suspicions will be relieved by the thought that “it’s just spam.” The recipient will flush it, rather than doing what I’m doing now, which is to take note, to realize what is actually going on, and to dig in, looking at future risks.
But imagine how deceptive that comment could have been, if the authors had not added the “spam” dodge at the end!
The comment is designed for me to not read it too closely. They were hoping that I would either just approve it, or dismiss it as spam.
The thing is, to me, this comment is CLEARLY the result of AI.
It sounds VERY much like many of the AIs I’ve dealt with.
And if it were me programming it, I would have done exactly what I think they did, which is to have it read the site and construct a comment to try to get an account on the site, but not raise any awareness of the attack, so that they could “try again” if it failed.
My theory?
Somebody, somewhere, such as Langley, is helping the Ukrainians use AI in cyberwar, and giving them lists of people to target. Very likely the CIA and their “friends”. You know – the people who are assassinating, or attempting to assassinate, honest politicians like Abe, Fico, Bolsonaro, and others.
I suspect that the evil powers will milk this form of attack for a while, letting it get more and more sophisticated and pernicious, until the “problem” is pumped up by the media, and is ripe to be “solved”. Probably using woke AI that the BLOB controls.
SO – we get screwed – both as the problem builds – AND when they offer solutions at the expense of truth and freedom.
Yeah. Anyway, I now expect an increasing load of hard-to-handle AI comments to hit before the election. Along with calls by the commies to “do something” – that being something that harms freedom.
Get ready. This is your distant early warning, patriots. Trouble is coming, as winter approaches, and it stinks of government-abused AI.
Emerald Robinson Drops the Must-Read CCP Reich-Speech in the Aftermath of What Looks Like WWII Nazi Sabotage with a Cyber Update
Speaking of “coincidences” in the aftermath of the “accidental” destruction of a critical bridge, I think it’s no coincidence that the brave and prescient Emerald Robinson dropped this particular post.
Emerald doesn’t do any more than present this speech – she makes no further comment than what she says at the beginning. She does not connect it to any other events.
That is left for you, the reader.
I am reproducing Emerald’s article in its entirety here, because I do not trust Substack to preserve Emerald’s account, or this post in particular, if the owners of Substack come under CCP financial or political control.
At the end, I will add some context from my own observations and experiences, having been exposed to many, many Chinese scientists, immigrants, and (most importantly) spies.
However, if you cannot read it on her site, you can read it as follows.
Editor’s Note: Chi Haotian is a famous (and now retired) general in the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. He served as China’s Minister of Defense for a decade as well. Two of his speeches were posted on Chinese language websites in 2005, and the newspaper Epoch Times subsequently published this speech — which was apparently given to an audience of Communist Party elites before his retirement in 2003. This speech has never been disclaimed by official sources in China. The speech has been edited here due to length restrictions for email. All italics are mine.
Comrades,
I’m very excited today, because the large-scale online survey sina.com that was done for us showed that our next generation is quite promising and our party’s cause will be carried on. In answering the question, “Will you shoot at women, children and prisoners of war,” more than 80 percent of the respondents answered in the affirmative, exceeding by far our expectations.
The central issue of this survey appears to be whether one should shoot at women, children and prisoners of war, but its real significance goes far beyond that. Ostensibly, our intention is mainly to figure out what the Chinese people’s attitude toward war is: If these future soldiers do not hesitate to kill even non-combatants, they’ll naturally be doubly ready and ruthless in killing combatants. Therefore, the responses to the survey questions may reflect the general attitude people have towards war. Actually, however, this is not our genuine intention. The purpose of the CCP Central Committee in conducting this survey is to probe people’s minds. We wanted to know: If China’s global development will necessitate massive deaths in enemy countries, will our people endorse that scenario? Will they be for or against it?
As everybody knows, according to the views propagated by Western scholars, humanity as a whole originated from one single mother in Africa. Therefore, no race can claim racial superiority. However, according to the research conducted by most Chinese scholars, the Chinese are different from other races on earth. We did not originate in Africa. Instead, we originated independently in the land of China. The Peking Man at Zhoukoudian that we are all familiar with represents a phase of our ancestors’ evolution. “The Project of Searching for the Origins of the Chinese Civilization” currently undertaken in our country is aimed at a more comprehensive and systematic research on the origin, process and development of the ancient Chinese civilization. We use to say, “Chinese civilization has had a history of five thousand years.” But now, many experts engaged in research in varied fields including archeology, ethnic cultures, and regional cultures have reached consensus that the new discoveries such as the Hongshan Culture in the northeast, the Liangahn Cutlure in Zhejiang province, the Jinsha Ruins in Sichuan province, and the Yongzhou Shun Emperor Cultural Site in Hunan province are all compelling evidence of the existence of China’s early civilizations, and they prove that China’s rice-growing agricultural history alone can be traced back as far as 8,000 to 10,000 years. This refutes the concept of “five thousand years of Chinese civilization.”
Therefore, we can assert that we are the product of cultural roots of more than a million years, and a single Chinese entity of two thousand years. This is the Chinese entity of two thousand years. This is the Chinese nation that calls itself, “descendants of Yan and Huang,” the Chinese nation that we are so proud of. Hitler’s Germany had once bragged that the German race was the most superior race on earth, but the fact is, our nation is far superior to the Germans.
During our long history, our people have disseminated throughout the Americas and the regions along the Pacific Rim, and they became Indians in the Americas and the East Asian ethnic groups in the South Pacific.
We all know that on account of our national superiority, during the thriving and prosperous Tang Dynasty our civilization was at the peak of the world. We were the center of the world civilization, and no other civilization in the world was comparable to ours. Later on, because of our complacency, narrow-mindedness, and the self-enclosure of our own country, we were surpassed by Western civilization, and the center of the world shifted to the West.
In reviewing history, one may ask: Will the center of the world civilization shift back to China?
Comrade He Xin put it in his report to the Central Committee in 1988: If the fact is that the center of leadership of the world was located in Europe as of the 18th Century, and later shifted to the United States in the mid-20th century the center of leadership of the world will shift to the East of our planet. And, “the East” of course mainly refers to China.
Actually, Comrade Lui Huaquing made similar points in the 1980s. Based on an historical analysis, he pointed out that the center of world civilization is shifting. It shifted from the East to Western Europe and later to the United States; now it is shifting back to the East. Therefore, if we refer to the 19th century as the British century, and the 20th century as the American century, then the 21st century will be the Chinese century.
We must greet the arrival of the Chinese Century by raising high the banner of national revitalization. How should we fight for the realization of the Chinese Century? We must borrow the precious experiences in human history by taking advantage of the outstanding fruition of human civilization and drawing lessons from what happened to other ethnic groups.
The lessons include the collapse of communism in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, as well as the defeats of Germany and Japan in the past. Recently there has been much discussion of the lessons of the collapse of communism in the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries, so I will not dwell on them here. Today I’d like to talk about the lessons of Germany and Japan.
As we all know, Nazi Germany also placed much emphasis on the education of the people, especially the younger generation. The Nazi Party and government organized and established various propaganda and educational institutions such as the “Guiding Bureau of National Propaganda,” “Department of National Education and Propaganda,” “Supervising Bureau of Worldview Study and Education,” and “Information Office,” all aimed at instilling into the people’s minds, from elementary schools to colleges, the idea that German people are superior, and convincing people that the historical mission of the Aryan people is to become the “lords of the earth” whose right it is to “rule over the world.” Back then the German people were much more united than we are today.
Nonetheless, Germany was defeated in utter shame, along with its ally, Japan. Why? We reached some conclusions at the study meetings of the Politburo, in which we were searching for the laws that governed the vicissitudes of the big powers, and trying to analyze Germany and Japan’s rapid growth. When we decide to revitalize based on the German model, we must not repeat the mistakes they made.
Specifically, the following are the fundamental causes for their defeat: First, they had too many enemies all at once, as they did not adhere to the principle of eliminating enemies one at a time; second, they were too impetuous, lacking the patience and perseverance required for great accomplishments; third, when the time came for them to be ruthless, they turned out to be too soft, therefore leaving troubles that resurfaced later on.
Let’s presume that back then Germany and Japan had been able to keep the United States neutral and had fought a protracted war step by step on the Soviet front. If they had adopted this approach, gained some time to advance their research, eventually succeeded in obtaining the technology of nuclear weapons and missiles, and launched surprise attacks against the United States and the Soviet Union using them, then the United States and the Soviet Union would not have been able to defend themselves and would have had to surrender. Little Japan, in particular, made an egregious mistake in launching the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. This attack did not hit the vital parts of the United States. Instead, it dragged the United States into the war, into the ranks of the gravediggers that eventually buried the German and Japanese fascists.
Of course, if they had not made these three mistakes and won the war, history would have been written in a different fashion. If that had been the case, China would not be in our hands. Japan might have relocated their capital to China and ruled over China. Afterwards, China and the whole of Asia under Japan’s command would have brought into full play the oriental wisdom, conquered the West ruled by Germany and unified the whole world. This is irrelevant, of course. No more digressions.
So, the fundamental reason for the defeats of Germany and Japan is that history did not arrange them to be the “lords of the earth,” for they are, after all, not the most superior race.
Ostensibly, in comparison, today’s China is alarmingly similar to Germany back then. Both of them regard themselves as the most superior races; both of them have a history of being exploited by foreign powers and are therefore vindictive; both of them have the tradition of worshipping their own authorities; both of them feel that they have seriously insufficient living space; both of them raise high the two banners of nationalism and socialism and label themselves as “national socialism”; both of them worship “one state, one party, one leader, and one doctrine.”
And yet, if we really are to make a comparison between Germany and China, then, as Comrade Jiang Zemin put it, Germany belongs to “pediatrics” – too trivial to be compared. How large is Germany’s population? How big is its territory? And how long is its history? We eliminated eight million nationalist troops in only three years. How many enemies did Germany kill? They were in power for a transient period of little more than a dozen years before they perished, while we are still energetic after being around for more than eighty years. Our theory of the shifting center of civilization is of course more profound than Hitler’s theory of “the lords of the earth.” Our civilization is profound and broad, which has determined that we are so much wiser than they were.
Our Chinese people are wiser than the Germans because, fundamentally, our race is superior to theirs. As a result, we have a longer history, more people, and larger land area. On this basis our ancestors left us with the two most essential heritages, which are atheism and great unity. It was Confucius, the founder of our Chinese culture, who gave us these heritages.
This heritage determined that we have a stronger ability to survive than the West. That is why the Chinese race has been able to prosper for so long. We are destined “not to be buried by either heaven or earth” no matter how severe the natural, man-made, and national disasters. This is our advantage.
Take response to war as an example. The reason that the United States remains today is that it has never seen war on its mainland. Once its enemies aim at the mainland, these enemies would reach Washington before its congress finishes debating and authorizes the president to declare war. But for us, we don’t waste time on these trivial things. Comrade Deng Xiaoping once said, “The Party’s leadership is prompt in making decisions. Once a decision is made, it is immediately implemented. There’s no wasting time on trivial things like in capitalist countries. This is our advantage! Our Party’s democratic centralism is built on the tradition of great unity. Although fascist Germany also stressed high-level centralism, they only focused on power of the top leader, but ignored the collective leadership of the central group. That’s why Hitler was betrayed by many later in his life, which fundamentally depleted the Nazis of their war capacity.
What makes us different from Germany is that we are complete atheists, while Germany was primarily a Catholic and Protestant country. Hitler was only half atheist. Although Hitler also believed that ordinary citizens had low intelligence, and that leaders should therefore make decisions, and although German people worshipped Hitler back then, Germany did not have the tradition of worshipping sages on a broad basis. Our Chinese society has always worshipped sages, and that is because we don’t worship any God. Once you worship a god, you can’t worship a person at the same time, unless you recognize the person as the god’s representative like they do in Middle Eastern countries. On the other hand, once you recognize a person as a sage, of course you will want him to be your leader…. This is the foundation of our democratic centralism.
The bottom line is, only China is a reliable force in resisting the Western parliament-based democratic system. Hitler’s dictatorship in Germany was perhaps but a momentary mistake in history.
Maybe you have now come to understand why we recently decided to further promulgate atheism. If we let theology from the West into China and empty us from the inside, if we let all Chinese people listen to God and follow God, who will obediently listen to us and follow us? If the common people don’t believe Comrade Hu Jintao is a qualified leader, question his authority, and want to monitor him, if the religious followers in our society question why we are leaving God in churches, can our Party continue to rule China?
Germany’s dream to be the “lord of the earth” failed, because ultimately, history did not bestow this great mission upon them. But the three lessons Germany learned from experience are what we ought to remember as we complete our historic mission and revitalize our race. The three lessons are: Firmly grasp the country’s living space; firmly grasp the Party’s control over the nation; and firmly grasp the general direction toward becoming the “lord of the earth.”
Next, I’d like to address these three issues.
The first issue is living space. This is the biggest focus of the revitalization of the Chinese race. In my last speech, I said that the fight over basic living resources (including land and ocean) is the source of the vast majority of wars in history. This may change in the information age, but not fundamentally. Our per capita resources are much less than those of Germany’s back then. In addition, economic development in the last twenty-plus years had a negative impact, and climates are rapidly changing for the worse. Our resources are in very short supply. The environment is severely polluted, especially that of soil, water, and air. Not only our ability to sustain and develop our race, but even its survival is gravely threatened, to a degree much greater than faced by Germany back then.
Anybody who has been to Western countries knows that their living space is much better than ours. They have forests alongside the highways, while we hardly have any trees by our streets. Their sky is often blue with white clouds, while our sky is covered by a layer of dark haze. Their tap water is clean enough for drinking, while even our ground water is so polluted that it can’t be drunk without filtering. They have few people in the streets, and two or three people can occupy a small residential building; in contrast, our streets are always crawling with people, and several people have to share one room.
Many years ago, there was a book titled Yellow Catastrophes. It said that, due to our following the American style of consumption, our limited resources would not long support the population and society would collapse, once our population reaches 1.3 billion. Now our population has already exceeded this limit, and we are now relying on imports to sustain our nation. It’s not that we haven’t paid attention to this issue. The Ministry of Land Resources is specialized in this issue.
But the term ‘living space’ (lebensraum) is too closely related to Nazi Germany. The reason we don’t want to discuss this too openly is to avoid the West’s association of us with Nazi Germany, which could in turn reinforce the view that China is a threat. Therefore, in our emphasis on He Xin’s new theory, “Human rights are just living rights,” we only talk about “living,” but not “space,” so as to avoid using the term “living space.” From the perspective of history, the reason that China is faced with the issue of living space is because Western countries established colonies ahead of Eastern countries. Western countries established colonies all around the world, therefore giving themselves an advantage on the issue of living space. To solve this problem, we must lead the Chinese people outside of China, so that they could develop outside of China.
The second issue is our focus on the leadership capacity of the ruling party. We’ve done better on this than their party. Although the Nazis spread their power to every aspect of the German national government, they did not stress their absolute leadership position like we have. They did not take the issue of managing the power of the party as first priority, which we have. When Comrade Mao Zedong summarized the “three treasures” of our party’s victory in conquering the country, he considered the most important “treasure” to be developing the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and strengthening its leadership position.
We have to focus on two points to fortify our leadership position and improve our leadership capacity.
The first is to promote the “Three Represents” theory, stressing that our Party is the pioneer of the Chinese race, in addition to being the pioneer of the proletariat. Many citizens say in private, “We never voted for you, the Communist Party, to represent us. How can you claim to be our representatives?”
There’s no need to worry about this issue. Comrade Mao Zedong said that if we could lead the Chinese people outside of China, resolving the lack of living space in China, the Chinese people will support us. At that time, we don’t’ have to worry about the labels of “totalitarianism” or “dictatorship.” Whether we can forever represent the Chinese people depends on whether we can succeed in leading the Chinese people out of China.
The second point, whether we can lead the Chinese people out of China, is the most important determinant of the CCP’s leadership position.
Why do I say this?
Everyone knows that without the leadership of our Party, China would not exist today. Therefore, our highest principle is to forever protect our Party’s leadership position. Before June 4, we realized vaguely that as long as China’s economy is developed, people would support and love the Communist Party. Therefore we had to use several decades of peacetime to develop China’s economy. No matter what-isms, whether it is a white cat or a black at, it is a good cat if it can develop China’s economy. But at that time, we did not have mature ideas about how China would deal with international disputes after its economy becomes developed.
Comrade Xiaoping said then that the main themes in the world were peace and development. But the June 4 riot gave our Party a warning and gave us a lesson that is still fresh.
The pressure of China’s peaceful evolution makes us reconsider of these two main themes of our time. We see that neither of these two issues, peace and development, have been resolved. The western oppositional forces always change the world according to their own visions; they want to change China and use peaceful evolution to overturn the leadership of our Communist Party. Therefore, if we only develop the economy, we still face the possibility of losing control.
The June 4 riot almost succeeded in bringing a peaceful transition; if it were not for the fact that a large number of veteran comrades were still alive and at a crucial moment they removed Zhao Ziyang and his followers, then we all would have been put in prison. After death we would have been too ashamed to report to Marx. Although we have passed the test of June 4, after our group of senior comrades pass away, without our control, peaceful evolution may still come to China like it did to the former Soviet Union. In 1956, they suppressed the Hungarian incident and defeated the attacks by Tito’s revisionists of Yugoslavia, but they could not withstand Gorbachev thirty some years later. Once those pioneering senior comrades died, the power of the Communist Party was taken away by peaceful evolution.
After the June 4 riot was suppressed, we have been thinking about how to prevent China from peaceful evolution and how to maintain the Communist Party’s leadership. We thought it over and over but did not come up with any good ideas. If we do not have good ideas, China will inevitably change peacefully, and we will all become criminals in history. After some deep pondering, we finally come to this conclusion: Only by turning our developed national strength into the force of a first striking outward – only by leading people to go out – can we win forever the Chinese people’s support and love for the Communist Party. Our party will then stand on invincible ground, and the Chinese people will have to depend on the Communist Party. They will forever follow the Communist Party with their hearts and minds, as was written in a couplet frequently seen in the countryside some years ago: “Listen to Chairman Mao, follow the Communist Party!” Therefore, the June 4 riot made us realize that we must combine economic development with preparation for war and leading the people to go out! Therefore, since then, our national defence policy has taken a 180 degree turn and we have since emphasized more and more “combining peace and war.” Our economic development is all about preparing for the needs of war! Publicly we still emphasize economic development as our center, but in reality, economic development has war as its center! We have made a tremendous effort to construct “The Great Wall Project” to build up, along our coastal and land frontiers as well as around large and medium-sized cities, a solid underground “Great Wall” that can withstand a nuclear war. We are also storing all necessary war materials. Therefore, we will not hesitate to fight a Third World War, so as to lead the people to go out and to ensure the Party’s leadership position. In any event, we, the CCP, will never step down from the stage of history! We’d rather have the whole world, or even the entire globe, share life and death with us than step down from the stage of history! Isn’t there a “nuclear bondage” theory? It means that since nuclear weapons have bound the security of the entire world, all will die together if death is inevitable. In my view, there is another kind of bondage, and that is, the fate of our Party is tied up with that of the whole world. If we, the CCP, are finished, China will be finished, and the world will be finished.
Our Party’s historical mission is to lead the Chinese people to go out. If we take the long view, we will see that history led us on this path. First, China’s long history has resulted in the world’s largest population, including Chinese in China as well as overseas. Second, once we open our doors, the profit-seeking western capitalists will invest capital and technology in China to assist our development, so that they can occupy the biggest market in the world. Third, our numerous overseas Chinese help us create the most favorable environment for the introduction of foreign capital, foreign technology, and advanced experience into China. Thus, it is guaranteed that our reform and open-door policy will achieve tremendous success. Fourth, China’s great economic expansion will inevitably lead to the shrinkage of per-capita living space for the Chinese people, and this will encourage China to turn outward in search for new living space. Fifth, China’s great economic expansion will inevitably come with significant development in our military forces, creating conditions for our expansion overseas. Ever since Napoleon’s time, the West has been alert for the possible awakening of the sleeping lion that is China. Now, the sleeping lion is standing up and advancing into the world, and has become unstoppable!
What is the third issue we should clinch firmly in order to accomplish our historical mission of national renaissance? It is to hold firmly onto the big “issue of America.”
This appears to be shocking, but the logic is actually very simple.
Comrade He Xin put forward a very fundamental judgment that is very reasonable. He asserted in his report to the Party Central Committee: The renaissance of China is in fundamental conflict with the Western strategic interest, and therefore will inevitably be obstructed by the western countries doing everything they can. So, only by breaking the blockade formed by the western countries headed by the United States can China grow and move toward the world!
Would the United States allow us to go out to gain new living space? First, if the United States is firm in blocking us, it is hard for us to do anything significant to Taiwan, Vietnam, India, or even Japan. How much more living space can we get? Very trivial! Only countries like the United States, Canada and Australia have the vast land to serve our need for mass colonization.
Therefore, solving the “issue of America” is the key to solving all other issues. First, this makes it possible for us to have many people migrate there and even establish another China under the same leadership of the CCP. America was originally discovered by the ancestors of the yellow race, but Columbus gave credit to the white race. We the descendants of the Chinese nation are entitled to the possession of the land! It is said that the residents of the yellow race have a very low social status in the United States. We need to liberate them. Second, after solving the “issue of America,” the western countries of Europe would bow to us, not to mention Taiwan, Japan and other small countries. Therefore, solving the “issue of America” is the mission assigned to the CCP members by history.
I sometimes think how cruel it is for China and the United States to be enemies that are bound to meet on a narrow road! Do you remember a movie about Liberation Army Troops led by Liu Bocheng and Deng Xiaoping? The title is something like “Decisive Battle on the Central Plains.” There is a famous remark in the movie that is full of power and grandeur: “The enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road, only the brave will win!” It is this kind of fighting to win or die spirit that enabled us to seize power in Mainland China. It is historical destiny that China and the United States will come to unavoidable confrontation on a narrow path and fight each other! The United States, unlike Russia and Japan, has never occupied and hurt China, and also assisted China in its battle against the Japanese. But, it will certainly be an obstruction, and the biggest obstruction! In the long run, the relationship of China and the United States is one of a life-and-death struggle.
One time, some Americans came to visit and tried to convince us that the relationship between China and the United States is one of interdependence. Comrade Xiaoping replied in a polite manner: “Go tell your government, China and the United States do not have such a relationship that is interdependent and mutually reliant.” Actually, Comrade Xiaoping was being too polite, he could have been more frank, “The relationship between China and the United States is one of life-and-death struggle.” Of course, right now it is not the time to openly break up with them yet. Our reform and opening to the outside world still rely on their capital and technology, we still need America. Therefore, we must do everything we can to promote our relationship with America, learn from America in all aspects and use America as an example to reconstruct our country.
How have we managed our foreign affairs in these years? Even if we had to put on a smiling face in order to please them, even if we have to give them the right cheek after they had hit our left cheek, we still must endure in order to further our relationship with the United States. The United States is the most successful country in the world today. Only after we have learned all of its useful experiences can we replace it in the future. Even though we are presently imitating the American tone “China and the United States rely on each other and share honor and disgrace,” we must not forget that the history of our civilization repeatedly has taught us that one mountain does not allow two tigers to live together.
We also must never forget what Comrade Xiaoping emphasized: “Refrain from revealing ambitions and put others off the track.” The hidden message is: we must put up with America; we must conceal our ultimate goals, hide our capabilities, and await the opportunity. In this way, our mind is clear. Why have we not updated our national anthem with something peaceful? Why did we not change the anthem’s theme of war? Instead, when revising the Constitution this time, for the first time we clearly specified “March of the Volunteers” is our national anthem. Thus we will understand why we constantly talk loudly about the “Taiwan issue” but not the “American issue.” We all know the principle of “doing one thing under the cover of another.” If ordinary people can only see the small island of Taiwan in their eyes, then you as the elite of our country should be able to see the whole picture of our cause. Over these years, according to Comrade Xiaoping’s arrangement, a large piece of our territory in the North has been given up to Russia; do you really think our Party Committee is a fool?
To resolve the issue of America we must be able to transcend conventions and restrictions. In history, when a country defeated another country or occupied another country, it could not kill all the people in the conquered land because back then you could not kill people effectively with sabers or long spears, or even with rifles or machine guns. Therefore, it was impossible to gain a stretch of land without keeping the people on that land. However, if we conquered America in this fashion, we would not be able to make many people migrate there.
Only by using special means to “clean up” America will we be able to lead the Chinese people there. This is the only choice left for us. This is not a matter of whether we are willing to do it or not. What kind of special means is there available for us to “clean up America”?
Conventional weapons such as fighters, canons, missiles and battleships won’t do; neither will highly destructive weapons such as nuclear weapons. We are not as foolish as to want to perish together with America by using nuclear weapons, despite the fact that we have been exclaiming that we will have the Taiwan issue resolved at whatever cost. Only by using non-destructive weapons that can kill many people will we be able to reserve America for ourselves. There has been rapid development of modern biological technology, and new bio-weapons have been invented one after another. Of course, we have not been idle, in the past years we have seized the opportunity to master weapons of this kind. We are capable of achieving our purpose of “cleaning up” America all of a sudden. When Comrade Xiaoping was still with us, the Party Central Committee had the perspicacity to make the right decision not to develop aircraft carrier groups and focus instead on developing lethal weapons that can eliminate mass populations of the enemy country.
From a humanitarian perspective, we should issue a warning to the American people and persuade them to leave America and leave the land they have lived in to the Chinese people. Or at least they should leave half of the United States to be China’s colony, because America was first discovered by the Chinese. But would this work? If this strategy does not work, then there is only one choice left to us. That is, use decisive means to “clean up” America and reserve America for our use in a moment. Our historical experience has proven that as long as we make it happen, nobody in the world can do anything about us. Furthermore, if the United States as the leader is gone, then other enemies have to surrender to us.
Biological weapons are unprecedented in their ruthlessness, but if the Americans do not die then the Chinese have to die. If the Chinese people are strapped to the present land, a total societal collapse is bound to take place. According to the computation of the author of Yellow Peril, more than half of the Chinese will die, and that figure would be more than 800 million people! Just after the liberation, our yellow land supported nearly 500 million people, while today the official figure of the population is more than 1.3 billion. This yellow land has reached the limit of its capacity. One day, who knows how soon it will come, the great collapse will occur any time and more than half the population will have to go.
We must prepare ourselves for two scenarios. If our biological weapons succeed in the surprise attack, the Chinese people will be able to keep their losses at a minimum in the fight against the United States. If, however, the attack fails and triggers a nuclear retaliation from the United States, China would perhaps suffer a catastrophe in which more than half of its population would perish. That is why we need to be ready with air defense systems for our big and medium-sized cities. Whatever the case may be, we can only move forward fearlessly, for the sake of our Party and State and our nation’s future, regardless of the hardships we have to face and the sacrifices we have to make. The population, even if more than half dies, can be reproduced. But if the Party falls, everything is gone, and forever gone.
In Chinese history, in the replacement of dynasties, the ruthless have always won and the benevolent have always failed. The most typical example involved Xiang Yu the King of Chu, who, after defeating Liu Bang, failed to continue to chase after him and eliminate his forces, and his leniency resulted in Xiang Yu’s death and Liu’s victory …. Therefore, we must emphasize the importance of adopting resolute measures. In the future, the two rivals, China and the United States, will eventually meet each other in a narrow road, and our leniency to the Americans will mean cruelty toward the Chinese people. Here some people may want to ask me: What about the several millions of our compatriots in the United States? They may ask: aren’t we against Chinese killing other Chinese?
These comrades are too pedantic; they are not pragmatic enough. If we had insisted on the principle that the Chinese should not kill other Chinese, would we have liberated China? As for the several million Chinese living in the United States, this is of course a big issue. Therefore, in recent years, we have been conducting research on genetic weapons, i.e., those weapons that do not kill yellow people. But producing a result with this kind of research is extremely difficult.
Of the research done on genetic weapons throughout the world, Israel is the most advanced. Their genetic weapons are designed to target Arabs and protect the Israelis. But even they have not reached the stage of actual deployment. We have cooperated with Israel on some research. Perhaps we can introduce some of the technologies used to protect Israelis and remold these technologies to protect the yellow people. But their technologies are not mature yet, and it is difficult for us to surpass them in a few years. If it has to be five or ten years before some breakthrough can be achieved in genetic weapons, we cannot afford to wait any longer.
Therefore, we have to give up our expectations about genetic weapons. Of course, from another perspective, the majority of those Chinese living in the United States have become our burden, because they have been corrupted by the bourgeois liberal values for a long time and it would be difficult for them to accept our Party’s leadership. If they survived the war, we would have to launch campaigns in the future to deal with them, to reform them. History has proved that any social turmoil is likely to involve many deaths.
Maybe we can put it this way: death is the engine that moves history forward. During the period of the three kingdoms, how many people died? When Genghis Khan conquered Eurasia, how many people died? When Manchu invaded the interior of China, how many people died? Not many people died during the 1911 Revolution, but when we overthrew the Three Great Mountains, and during the political campaigns such as “suppression of the reactionaries,” “Three-Anti-Campaign,” and “Five-Anti-Campaign,” at least 20 million people died. We were apprehensive that some young people today would be trembling with fear when they hear about wars and people dying.
During wartime, we were used to seeing dead people. Blood and flesh were flying everywhere, corpses were lying in heaps on the fields, and blood ran like rivers. We saw it all. On the battlefields, everybody’s eyes turned red with killing because it was a life-and-death struggle and only the brave would survive.
It is indeed brutal to kill one or two hundred million Americans. But that is the only path that will secure a Chinese century in which the CCP leads the world. We, as revolutionary humanitarians, do not want deaths. But if history confronts us with a choice between deaths of Chinese and those of Americans, we’d have to pick the latter, as, for us, it is more important to safeguard the lives of the Chinese people and the life of our Party. That is because, after all, we are Chinese and members of the CCP. Since the day we joined the CCP, the Party, life has always been above all else! History will prove that we made the right choice.
Now, when I am about to finish my speech, you probably understand why we wanted to know, whether the people would rise against us if one day we secretly adopt resolute means to “clean up” America.
Comrade He Xin pointed out to the Hong Kong Business News during an interview that: “The U.S. has a shocking conspiracy.” According to what he had in hand, from September 27 to October 1, 1995, the Mikhail Sergeevich Gorbachev Foundation, funded by the United States, gathered 500 of the world’s most important statesmen, economic leaders and scientists, including George W. Bush (he was not the U.S. president at the time), the Baroness Thatcher, Tony Blair, Zbigniew Brzezinski, as well as George Soros, Bill Gates, futurist John Naisbitt, etc., all of the world’s most popular characters, in the San Francisco Fairmont hotel for a high-level roundtable conference, discussing problems about globalization and how to guide humanity to move forward into the 21st century. According to what He Xin had in hand, the outstanding people of the world in attendance thought that in the 21st century a mere 20 percent of the world’s population will be sufficient to maintain the world’s economy and prosperity, the other 80 percent or 4/5ths of the world’s population will be human garbage unable to produce new values. The people in attendance thought that this excess 80 percent population would be a trash population and “high-tech” means should be used to eliminate them gradually.
Since the enemies are secretly planning to eliminate our population, we certainly cannot be infinitely merciful and compassionate to them.
Certainly, in spreading Comrade He Xin’s views, we cannot publish the article in the Party newspapers, in order to avoid raising the enemy’s vigilance. He Xin’s conversation may remind the enemy that we have grasped the modern science and technology, including “clean” nuclear technology as well as biological weapons technology, and we can use powerful measures to eliminate their population on a large scale.
The last problem I want to talk about is of firmly seizing the preparations for military battle.
Currently, we are at the crossroad of moving forward or backward. Some comrades saw problems flooding everywhere in our country – the corruption problem, the state-owned enterprise problem, the bank’s bad accounts problem, environmental problems, society security problems, education problems, the AIDS problem, various appeals problems, even the riots problem. These comrades vacillated in the determination to prepare for military battles. They thought: they should first grab the political reform problem, that is, our own political reform comes first. After resolving the domestic problems, we can then deal with the foreign military battle problem.
This reminds me of the crucial period in 1948 in the Chinese Revolution. At that time the People’s Liberation Army’s “horses were drinking water” in the Yangtze River, but they faced extremely complex situations and difficult problems everywhere in the liberated areas, and the central authority received emergency reports daily. What to do? Should we stop to manage rear areas and internal matters first before moving forward, or press on to pass the Yangtze River with one vigorous effort? Chairman Mao, with his extraordinary wisdom and mettle gave the marching order “Carry on the revolution to the end,” and liberated all of China. The previously thought “serious” conflicting problems were all resolved in this great forward moving revolutionary wave.
Now, it seems like we are in the same critical period as the “horses were drinking water” in the Yangtze River days in the revolutionary era, as long as we resolve the United States problem at one blow, our domestic problems will all be readily solved. Therefore, our military battle preparation appears to aim at Taiwan but in fact is aimed at the United States, and the preparation is far beyond the scope of attacking aircraft carriers or satellites.
Marxism pointed out that violence is the midwife for the birth of China’s century. As war approaches, I am full of hope for our next generation.
WOLF AGAIN…..
I was not aware of this speech until I read it last night in Emerald’s post.
I was immediately struck by the fact that this speech authenticates my impression, which began even years before the speech was given, that the “ChiComs” are in many ways more like “ChiNazis”.
Even more shocking is the open and proud admiration for, emulation of, and self-comparison to…. wait for it….. THE ACTUAL NAZIS.
And if that wasn’t enough, there is blatant discussion of “mistakes” that the Nazis made, and how China can “fix” them by stealth, patience, deception, and cunning.
I found the discussion of “lebensraum” – not just the idea, but the actual word – fascinating. The general and his CCP ilk realize that they can’t openly speak of such things, so they take the Orwellian approach of couching their envious greed for the land of others under the banner of “human rights”. And this guy explains it – right there, to his fellow communists!
Good GRIEF – it’s sick.
Now – some of what you (hopefully) just read may sound a bit unbelievable, but in my experience it’s not. I was in school when the first CCP students arrived in American universities, during the 1970s, and it was fascinating to observe them. They were very good at observing, while giving away nothing. They were clearly military or spies – and very different from the Taiwanese and Hong Kong Chinese, who were much friendlier.
However, the biggest wake-up call for me, was something that happened in the 1980’s, as a young scientist with many friends in medicine. One of my young doctor friends was working with a visiting CCP doctor, not quite as young. The man was very professional, self-confident, and reasonably talkative, unlike earlier CCP assets.
This doctor seemed quite in control of himself – except for one time when American Indians were casually mentioned in a normal way – i.e., not in a bad or good context – just factual. At that point this doctor became visibly angry in a kind of “two minute hate” way. He was almost foaming at the mouth. It almost struck me as fully psychotic. In fact, the closest experience I ever had to it, involved a person who actually WAS psychotic.
It became apparent that this guy had been trained in the idea that American Indians were basically CHINESE, and he was extremely angry about their treatment – despite the facts that (1) he didn’t know a damn thing about American Indians, (2) he was culturally as far away from American Indians as one could possibly be, and (3) it was obvious that he loathed American Indian values. The fact that these three distinguishing characteristics sound very much like our current suburban “AWFULs” (Affluent White Female Unstable Liberals) may imply the origin of the latter’s belief system propaganda. But I digress.
What I was hearing at that moment was so weird, I chose not to respond in any way, and to just let the guy cool off, which is often the best approach with psychotics. I didn’t argue or agree, nor mention anything about my own Choctaw background, or knowledge of American Indians.
But I always remembered that moment. I had never seen or heard any similar sentiment from any Chinese – until I read this speech – which was given about 20 years AFTER my experience.
Over the years, I have always thought that the idea of Chinese having a kind of racial ownership of the American Indians sounded remarkably like the Nazi idea of Germany “owning” Germans and “Germanic people” everywhere else. Thus, as Red China has become more and more aggressive in asserting “ownership” of the “racially Chinese” in foreign lands, such as controlling them with their “police stations”, this parallel became quite obvious to me.
Now, I know where it came from. It’s in this speech. It is literal CCP DOCTRINE which the ChiNazis are using to justify their “ownership” of the American hemisphere.
I know this doctrine sounds CRAZY, but I heard it with my own ears in the 1980s, so it has been AROUND, and it was clearly drilled into people that China sent here. I don’t know if such supremacist thinking predates Chinese communism and the CCP, but even if it’s just 40-70 years old, then it really explains a LOT.
This is “lebensraum” thinking. This is Nazi thinking.
In the context of what just happened in Baltimore, which would have been immediately suspected of being Nazi sabotage during World War II, I have absolutely no problem suspecting that China is – as China says to its own people – preparing for war with the United States. And that China is training both its own people, and even some of ours, to believe that they OWN the United States.

MUSIC!
We offer multi-song selections from multiple genres. Take your pick!
Here’s something that wasn’t on your bingo card for the New Year – Indian Christian music!
A little too Eastern? Try Western! Medieval Western! Note the interesting similarities – and differences.
OK – let’s celebrate LAST YEAR – with an BIG WOLF epic / heroic orchestral music mix from 2023!!!
Feeling uninspired? Try some INSPIRATIONAL electronic music that’s used to addict people to VIDEO GAMES.
And if you still feel like partying, and want some energy, here is an interesting genre called “nightcore” – which is basically sped-up music, like we loved when we were kids, playing 33 1/3 rpm vinyl at 45 rpm.
https://youtu.be/s5nLNf_5jrs
And how can we celebrate a turn of the Gregorian calendar, without a selection of real, live, Gregorian chants, by Spanish monks?
Sorry, but we can only provide a link to this one.
If you can’t do links, here is an alternative – an hour of “Gregorian pop” with a female vocalist!
https://youtu.be/Y6nf7nz58zA
OK – if you’re still looking for something, try an oddball collection of classic country. This is a strange mix, but it’s got its moments, like riding in somebody else’s pickup truck with an 8-track player and an eclectic selection of tapes strewn everywhere.
https://youtu.be/7sXhvCn5Olo
Still feeling the Christmas spirit, but DONE with trees, ornaments, and all that “not about Christ” stuff? How about hours and hours of hymns on piano and cello, with soothing videos of nature in the background?
Sorry boys – the AI-generated “big fiddle” gal only appears on the cover!
OK – time to finish with SIREENS. Real ones. In a STAIRWELL!

The Yule log, Yule clog, or Christmas block is a specially selected log burnt on a hearth as a winter tradition in regions of Europe, and subsequently North America. The origin of the folk custom is unclear. Like other traditions associated with Yule (such as the Yule boar), the custom may ultimately derive from Proto-Indo-European religion as similar traditions have been recorded in Celtic, Germanic, Baltic and Slavic paganism, among others.
American folklorist Linda Watts provides the following overview of the custom:
The familiar custom of burning the Yule log dates back to earlier solstice celebrations and the tradition of bonfires. The Christmas practice calls for burning a portion of the log each evening until Twelfth Night (January 6). The log is subsequently placed beneath the bed for luck, and particularly for protection from the household threats of lightning and, with some irony, fire. Many have beliefs based on the yule log as it burns, and by counting the sparks and such, they seek to discern their fortunes for the new year and beyond.[1]
Watts notes that the Yule log is one of various “emblem[s] of divine light” that feature in winter holiday customs (other examples include the Yule fire and Yule candle).[1]
Need some Christmas music fast? Here is your one-stop shopping solution!
I don’t know – I need something more “Wheatie” – so check this out!
Have an EPIC Christmas, friends!
Need something more classic? An hour of Christmas piano!
OK – I don’t normally do “ads for musicals featured on MSN”, but this is kinda cool, in a Hollywood way.
Well, now let’s try some more modern stuff just for comparison. Check out some “dub-step” electronica for Christmas!
Let’s recover from that, with a smooth orchestral version of a classic – with some false advertising, as there’s no Bing in sight…..
Time to JUMP THE WOLF – with a bunch of great orchestral and “big choral” Christmas tunes – and a RIDICULOUSLY BIG WOLF!
Finally – what’s Christmas without some DS-approved Hollywood?
OK, we can’t finish with that. Merry Christmas — in Latin!

In molecular biology, G-quadruplexsecondary structures (G4) are formed in nucleic acids by sequences that are rich in guanine.[2] They are helical in shape and contain guanine tetrads that can form from one,[3] two[4] or four strands.[5] The unimolecular forms often occur naturally near the ends of the chromosomes, better known as the telomeric regions, and in transcriptional regulatory regions of multiple genes, both in microbes[6][7] and across vertebrates [8][7] including oncogenes in humans.[9] Four guanine bases can associate through Hoogsteen hydrogen bonding to form a square planar structure called a guanine tetrad (G-tetrad or G-quartet), and two or more guanine tetrads (from G-tracts, continuous runs of guanine) can stack on top of each other to form a G-quadruplex.
The placement and bonding to form G-quadruplexes is not random and serve very unusual functional purposes. The quadruplex structure is further stabilized by the presence of a cation, especially potassium, which sits in a central channel between each pair of tetrads.[3] They can be formed of DNA, RNA, LNA, and PNA, and may be intramolecular, bimolecular, or tetramolecular.[10] Depending on the direction of the strands or parts of a strand that form the tetrads, structures may be described as parallel or antiparallel. G-quadruplex structures can be computationally predicted from DNA or RNA sequence motifs,[11][12] but their actual structures can be quite varied within and between the motifs, which can number over 100,000 per genome. Their activities in basic genetic processes are an active area of research in telomere, gene regulation, and functional genomics research.[13][14]
Those genetic bases (the little flat molecules with one or two rings and lots of “N” and “O” in them) can not only bond to each other in PAIRS between different bases – the base guanine (G) can bond to itself if it makes a circle big enough for FOUR of them instead of just a pair (see left picture above). Sometimes a metal ion in the center can help this happen.
This competing form of binding disrupts the nice, neat, normal “double helix” binding, but not permanently.
When G4 binding happens, there are many working ways that the little squares can form. These squares tend to STACK just like in normal DNA, and so sequences that are rich in guanine can build these stacks easily, if the guanines are in the right places. Alternatively, two or more strands of DNA or RNA can join in these knots, but at a minimum, a single strand can do it, as shown on the right of the graphic above, where the sequence knots up against itself.
Note that this is more like “knots in velcro”, and not like various circling knots we are familiar with.
Used in a sentence
“For over two decades, the prime objective of the chemical biology community studying G-quadruplexes (G4s) has been to use chemicals to interact with and stabilize G4s in cells to obtain mechanistic interpretations.”
The COVID vaccine mRNA is not natural – and not only in that normal bases are substituted with modified bases. It also has been “codon optimized”, meaning the very sequence of bases was changed from the viral sequence, by substituting base triplets with synonymous ones, that are known to process faster in humans. But the problem is that these changes are rich in guanine, making the knotting more likely. This not-fully-equivalent substitution has potential pharmacological consequences. In a sense, viral evolutionary intelligence was ignored (a beautiful point made by Kevin McKernan).

Let’s start off with some LIVE DRINKABY
Sadly, DRINKABY line dancing hasn’t just infected the other side of the Pacific – it has become a destructive influence in Spongebob’s hometown of Bikini Bottom.
https://youtu.be/xGTdVy7t1K8
This led to me watching (please skip, unless you desire to prove the full effect that follows) a video compilation of the times the town of Bikini Bottom was destroyed in the cartoon “Spongebob Squarepants”.
When that destructive propaganda of mayhem was over (yes, even Spongebob is one of their tentacles), I needed the following.
This is only 18 minutes – and worth every one of them.
But here is the one you need right now!
You know, maybe we’ll just leave it right there and skip the usual worldly “stuff”!
Although I did promise PAVACA that I would explain something, so we’ll try that.
MOAR DNA and RNA STUFF
Check out this video, which shows TRANSCRIPTION – the normal, natural way that DNA is turned into RNA in living organisms on this planet.
NOW – the molecular biologist who found the DNA contamination problem in the mRNA vaccines – Kevin McKernan – reposted the latter video with a comment about something which is NOT in the video, but which would change it. Here is his comment.
Now add N1 methyl Pseudouridine and watch that yellow strand turn into quadruplex G knot. https://t.co/0S5raeEjpT
Kevin is not commenting about the transcription process shown here. He is NOT talking about the red DNA strand, either. He is commenting about the yellow strand of mRNA which is being produced.
“Now add N1 methyl Pseudouridine and watch that yellow strand turn into quadruplex G knot.”
He is saying that if you change the uridines in that molecule to N1-methyl-pseudouridine, as was done in the Pfizer vaccine, the yellow strand of mRNA will “kink up” with G-quadruplex knots.
He explains that further, when somebody wrongly claims the video is showing translation (creation of proteins) and not transcription (creation of mRNA). Observe.
Nope. Try modeling transcription with N1 methyl PseudoU. It radically alters the melting temperature of RNA and accelerates quadruplex G formation/R-Loops.
They also GC enriched the sequence via codon optimization.
Then try feeding that knot into a ribosome. Ribosomal pausing
So to sum up, he is saying that the “good” “yellow” mRNA produced in the video was corrupted by the modifications that were made to it by Pfizer.
He says the following things:
it’s transcription, not translation, that is being shown
the “pseudo-uridine” changes done to the viral mRNA sequence make the mod-RNA dissociate more easily
the same changes make the mod-RNA form G4-quadruplexes easier
Pfizer also changed the code to include more guanines (G), which means more quadruplexes
all the G4-based KNOTS that are present in the mod-RNA cause the subsequent TRANSLATION step (looks similar to the video, but it’s PROTEIN being formed) to suddenly PAUSE, just like a KNOT in a climbing rope will lock up against a device until it is untangled. This is the “ribosomal pausing” he’s talking about.
So how does the DeMarinis paper figure into this?
The DeMarinis paper showed that the Pfizer vaccine can be reverse-transcribed from mod-RNA back into DNA by human liver cells. Reverse transcription would look pretty much like the video of transcription, except that RNA would be read, and DNA would spit out.
Whether that DNA is incorporated into the genome or not is unknown, but it is a huge concern, because another group (Jaenisch paper) showed that the COVID virus SARS-CoV-2 can and does incorporate its spike into the genome of some patients, AND yet another group (Mehedi paper) showed that the viral spike shepherds its own mRNA into the nucleus of human cells, where reverse transcription could happen.
I wanted people to see a bigger point – that this repeated and coincidentally connected “bungling” by Pfizer and its allies, which weirdly matches WEF’s dream of “hacking humanity”, is worthy of a bit of suspicion.
When a trail of disconnected yet matching footprints goes in some direction, it’s rather logical that somebody was purposefully passing that way.
New pinned Tweet. This paper clarifies the purpose of the full spike protein mRNA vaccines, which create a hack and portal into the cell nucleus and thence into the human genome. Straight out of WEF and Harari's ravings, it's amazing that they did it. https://t.co/q2oocDyD4s
It sure looks to me like the various “negligent” yet clearly convenient aspects of this whole exercise, add up to an attempt to gain a population-wide hack into the human cell nucleus.

The following may be a bit “heavy” — please regard it as a kind of rich “Christmas Pudding” of COVID-19 “vaccine” knowledge base. Not a “lump of coal!”
Just in time for Christmas, Yours Truly presents a list of what she considers to be the “Top 12” types of damage that the COVID-19 “vaccines” can do to the body of the “vaccine” recipient. This list has been gathered from the 1600+ hours of investigating “all things COVID-19” that Yours Truly has done since March 2020. Therefore, it is only her opinion. People who read through the report that Pfizer-BioNTech gave to the FDA on 30 April 2021, regarding the over 1,000 serious adverse events medical conditions that the company’s COVID-19 “vaccine”, BNT162b2, caused in persons who took this “vaccine” IN FEWER THAN THREE MONTHS after the FDA granted the initial EUA for this “vaccine” in December 2020 for its use in the United States, may come up with “Top Lists” of their own. The report can be found here: https://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/reissue_5.3.6-postmarketing-experience.pdf, BNT162b2 5.3.6 Cumulative Analysis of Post-authorization Adverse Events Reports. The APPENDIX 1. LIST OF ADVERSE EVENTS OF SPECIAL INTEREST, found at the end of the report, lists these serious adverse events conditions reports that BNT162b2 caused in “vaccinated” persons.
However, what is NOT opinion is that the FDA then knew, on 30 April 2021, that the Pfizer-BioNTech “flagship” COVID-19 “vaccine” BNT162b2 (actually, an untried gene therapy injection), was capable of damaging the body of the “vaccine” recipient in over 1,000 different ways, including the ways on Yours Truly’s “Top 12 List..” However, instead of performing its regulatory (and moral and ethical) obligations to immediately pull BNT162b2 off the market and out of use until the situation could be further investigated, the FDA chose to CONTINUE the EUA that it granted in December 2020 for BNT162b2. Not only that, but the FDA went ahead and granted “full approval” for the use of the European version of BNT162b2, called COMIRNATY, in the United States. Not only that, but the FDA granted EUA’s for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “bivalent vaccine” to be used in the United States. Finally, in the spring of 2023, the FDA quietly stopped all use of BNT162b2 in the United States — in Yours Truly’s opinion, after mounting reports of serious adverse events, including deaths, being caused by this “vaccine” were beginning to circulate widely and to be confirmed by professional researchers and by doctors — and substituted the use of the Pfizer-BioNTech (and the Moderna) “booster vaccines” for the Omicron variant. In the summer of 2023, the FDA granted EUA’s for both the Pfizer-BioNTech and for the Moderna “2023-2024 Formula COVID-19 Vaccine”, which had only been tested on mice.
Here is Yours Truly’s “Top 12 List”: The first nine, from the APPENDIX 1. cited above:
Death: neonatal and Sudden unexplained death in epilepsy (page 3 and page 8); Myocarditis and Pericarditis (page 6 and page 7); Stroke (Cerebral artery embolism page 2; Cerebral thrombosis, page 2); Thrombotic Stroke (page 9), among other types; THIRTY different types of Autoimmune disorders (page 2); FORTY different types of Herpes disorders (page 4 and page 5); THIRTY-PLUS different types of Liver disorders (page 4); TWENTY-FIVE different types of Immune System disorders (page 5); SIXTEEN different types of Neurological (brain and/or central nervous system) disorders (page 6); and, COVID-19 and COVID-19 Pneumonia (page 3).
As an example, here is a handy-dandy image of page 4 of the APPENDIX 1., with Yours Truly’s notes:
To round out the “Top 12 List” of COVID-19 “vaccine” damage to the body of the recipient, there are these three:
One: Heart tissue and lung tissue damage / destruction: Please refer to: https://doctors4covidethics.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/causality-article.pdf, by Michael Palmer, MD, and Sucharit Bhakdi, MD; Two: Fetal / Neonatal disorders, including 1p36 deletion syndrome (also listed on page 1 of the APPENDIX 1.): Please refer to the following regarding 1p36 deletion syndrome: https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/1p36-deletion-syndrome/ (more on this condition below); and, Three: Cancer induced with the assistance of the SV40 cancer promoter DNA that has been recently discovered in the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccines” (more on this below): Please refer to the following: https://osf.io/preprints/osf/mjc97, “DNA fragments detected in monovalent and bivalent Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna modRNA COVID-19 vaccines from Ontario, Canada: Exploratory dose response relationship with serious adverse events”, David Speicher, Jessica Rose, Kevin McKernan, et al. From lines 94-95 of this paper: “McKernan, et al., found SV40 promoter-enhancer-ori [DNA], and SV40 polyA signal sequences in the Pfizer vaccines.” The SV40 promoter-enhancer DNA is also in the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccines” that were used in the United States: https://rumble.com/v3r1pqf-vaccine-adulteration-wkevin-mckernan-byram-bridle-chris-martenson-steve-kir.html, beginning at 3:32 in the video. Please also refer to the letter of December 2023 from Florida Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, to the directors of the FDA and the CDC: www.floridahealth.gov/about/_documents/12-06-2023-DOH-Letter-to-FDA-RFI-on-COVID-19-Vaccines.pdf. Yours Truly will posit that, since the modRNA + its spike protein and the “Process 2” manufacturing method for the current “2023-2024 Formula COVID-19 Vaccine” by this company in use in the United States are both based on its original “vaccine” formulations (BNT162b2 and the “booster and bivalent vaccines”), it appears that this opens up the possibility that the SV40 promoter-enhancer DNA is present in this “vaccine” also. Important: The SV40 promoter-enhancer DNA in the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccines” is not the entire code, only a part of it. In and of itself, this “partial code” likely would not cause cancer; however, it can be involved in the general damage / destruction that the COVID-19 “vaccines” do to the “vaccine” recipient’s body, which can, in turn, be involved in the onset of cancer, or the re-emergence of cancer already in remission, in that person’s body. In addition, Pfizer-BioNTech DID NOT TELL the Canadian health authorities, nor, apparently, the FDA in the United States, about the SV40 issue.
About the 1p36 deletion syndrome caused by the modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines”: This is particularly troubling, since it effects UNBORN children and THE SPERM AND THE EGGS OF THE “VACCINATED” PARENTS. 1p36 deletion syndrome is a multi-faceted condition that negatively affects fetal development. Infants born with this condition have severe intellectual difficulties; weak muscle tone; have vision, hearing, and heart issues; and either do not speak, or can only speak a limited vocabulary; among other things. Please refer to the MedlinePlus link, above, for further information. It has been proven that large amounts of the dangerous lipid nanoparticles AND the enhanced spike protein + its modRNA in the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccine” migrate to, and lodge in, two important areas of the recipient’s body — the OVARIES and the TESTES. Please refer to the image below, directly from Pfizer-BioNTech, on page 8 of a document that the company gave to the FDA on 21 January 2021. The document is called BNT162b2 2.6.5 Pharmacokinetics Tabulated Summary. It is available through https://phmpt.org/.
Please also refer to this graphic, which shows what the modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” do in the pregnant mother’s body and in the body her unborn child or her nursling child (this is from a CDC presentation):
1p36 deletion syndrome is “...caused by a deletion of genetic material from a specific region in the short (p) arm of chromosome 1…Most cases of 1p36 deletion syndrome are not inherited.” (per the MedlinePlus link, above.) Think about that.
A final note on the current “2023-2024 Formula COVID-19 Vaccines” by both Pfizer-BioNTech and by Moderna: These apparently do include the ingredients (although in smaller amounts) of the original modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” made by each company (BNT162b2 by Pfizer-BioNTech; and, mRNA-1273 by Moderna), with additional elements of the Omicron XBB 1.5 variant lineage. Please refer to the following: www.fda.gov/media/167211/download, page 39 (Pfizer-BioNTech); www.fda.gov/media/167208/download, page 34 (Moderna); and, https://covid19.nih.gov/covid-19-vaccines.
As an aside, in case readers hear someone “congratulating themselves” for their taking either the Novavax or the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) COVID-19 “vaccines”, because they believed that somehow these “vaccines” are “safer” than those of Pfizer-BioNTech or of Moderna: The Novavax COVID-19 “vaccine” uses the same modRNA + its spike protein as in the Pfizer-BioNTech and the Moderna COVID-19 “vaccines.” The difference with the Novavax COVID-19 “vaccine” is that the SARS-CoV-2 virus is “marinated” in an insect culture, with the resulting modRNA “harvested” and mixed with “adjuvants” made from soap tree bark; this “vaccine” also uses lipid nanoparticles (LNPs.). The Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) COVID-19 “vaccine” was removed from use (revoked) in the United States by the FDA in May 2023. However, persons who took this “vaccine” prior to May 2023, are at risk for Thrombosis and Thrombocytopenia, as listed on the “black letter warning” area on the (revoked) FDA Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers for this “vaccine.” Please refer to the following: for the Novavax COVID-19 “vaccine”: www.fda.gov/media/159897/download, page 33; www.hackensackmeridianhealth.org/en/healthu/2022/08/09/novavax-vaccine-how-its-different-and-how-it-works; and, for the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) revoked COVID-19 “vaccine”: www.fda.gov/media/146304/download, page 1.
Yours Truly will make it clear she believes that COVID-19, in its variants forms, is still a threat to health. Since one is a concerned citizen, not a healthcare practitioner, one can only offer the following thoughts:
First: it is of primary importance that all people have, and maintain, the best level of personal health and immunity that is possible; “un-vaccinated” people have a primary responsibility here to themselves. Second: It is of primary importance that all “un-vaccinated” people follow a protocol for prophylaxis against COVID-19, such as those outlined at https://covid19criticalcare.com/, and including judicious exposure to sunlight and daily mild to moderate exercise. Third: It is of primary importance that all people follow “common sense” approaches, such as washing the hands, and staying away from sick people if possible. Fourth: It is of importance that “vaccinated” people know about various protocols to try and mitigate the dangerous effects of the COVID-19 “vaccines” at work in their bodies; https://covid19criticalcare.com/treatment-protocols/. Fifth: It is of great importance to have and keep a positive connection with a Supreme Being.
“Then will you know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” John 8:32
It is past time, in Yours Truly’s opinion, to bring to justice those who were/are involved in the development and manufacture of the COVID-19 “vaccines”; and those in the FDA / CDC / AMA, and other medical agencies and organizations, who either know, should have known, or knew of, the dangers of these “vaccines” — but still continue to push them. Some examples: Albert Bourla, DVM (CEO of Pfizer Inc.); Stephane Bancel (CEO of Moderna); Alex Gorsky (CEO of Johnson & Johnson until 2022); Anthony Fauci, MD (former head of the NIAID); Francis Collins, MD (former head of the NIH); Janet Woodcock, MD (former Acting Commissioner of the FDA); Rochelle Walensky, MD (former Director of the CDC); Peter Daszak, CEO of EcoHealth Alliance; Robert Califf, MD (current Commissioner of the FDA); Mandy Cohen, MD (current Director of the CDC); Jesse M. Ehrenfeld, MD, (current head of the AMA); and, Ralph Baric, PhD, of the Baric Lab at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
