The Tree reaches up into the sky, it’s branches forming an enormous canopy. Underneath the canopy, there is a bright glow shining up from within the Tree. The canopy of the tree stretches out over all the structures below. Second Image: Is a rounded doorway at the top of a stone stairway, built into the base of an enormous Tree. The doors are glass and there is a bright glow coming from beyond the doors. There are plants, vines and vegetation on either side of the stone steps. Third Image: Is an open room with comfy-looking futons, a fluffy throw rug and large throw pillows on a gleaming wooden floor. There are glowing lanterns positioned around on the floor. Fourth Image: Is President Trump walking outdoors, with two secret service agents behind him. He is holding up his left arm out to his side, giving a wave with his hand.

Wheatie’s Word of the Day:
Y’all
“Y’all” is a contraction of two words, that has been around longer than most people realize.
These days, we think of it as a contraction of the words ‘You’ and ‘All’.
But it dates back to a contraction of Ye and All, from the Old English that our Scots-Irish ancestors brought over with them.
Used in a sentence:
Ye all will perish if we listen to the lay-about fools who tell us that we should all share in the fruits of each others’ labours.
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Today is Presidents Day.
Presidents Day is celebrated on the 3rd Monday of February, and started out as a holiday for Washington’s Birthday on February 22nd, established in 1885.
Then, some states added a holiday for Lincoln’s Birthday on February 12th.
In 1968, the Uniform Monday Holiday Act was passed and went into effect in 1971, which combined the two birthday holidays.
There is some confusion, however, as to whether or not an apostrophe should be used after “Presidents”…because we see it both ways, and even before the ‘s’.
I don’t know which way is the proper way…but I don’t consider this guy to be in with the Presidents who are celebrated.

Found this…and thought I would post it for our Wolfie:

Violators will be temp-banned. Get used to it. Bad Wolf is in the War Room. He’s gonna make Sundance look like a softie. And there is FIGHTING in the War Room. Civility rescinded. Namby Pamby better get her ass out of here. I’m gonna make her cry with her widdle bullshit. We’re here to take down Ratseclisa and all her nasty coup friends.
Now – riddle me this – how the fuck did McCabe skate?
As far as I’m concerned, we got “OJ justice” on this. I hope you see what I did there. I reminded you that there is extremely strong precedent for the most “slam dunk” (COUGH) *MURDERER* getting off when PC, communism, shit-head media (remember what they did to Mark Fuhrman?), corrupt and ineffective criminal justice, and all that shit intervenes.
There are no guarantees here that whatever got McCabe off won’t work for Comey, Brennan, and all the others. No guarantees. And remember – in the OJ case, the forces of evil were not even CONTROLLING THE INSIDE. Yeah, the “Hollywood” prosecutor’s office was highly compromised in 1000 ways, but it’s not nearly as bad as what we have here, with the wrong tribe basically in control of the reservation, and Chief Barr nominally in charge but – well, something is not right. Cigar store Injun?
NO amount of “tick tock” saves this. NO amount of “trust the plan” saves this. No amount of breathless Hannity saves this. No amount of Sara Carter’s fucking tits saves this.
Yeah, I get all the morale stuff – I’m not a fucking idiot, you know. But this is fucking war now and I don’t have time for stuff that keeps the merry band happy when we’re designing an actual battle plan. It’s GARBAGE – keep it out of my way when I’m in the War Room.
I was trying to figure out WHY this bothered me so much. WHY the moving goal posts of Q were just not working for me. THIS is why.
Very simple – I want to figure out what THE HELL happened here, construct a massive logic bomb based on that, and position it somewhere in front of everybody’s sliding goal posts. It’s time to make Q, Barr, Wray, and everybody else who is not named TRUMP live up to more rules than “somebody can get into Wolf’s WordPress account and impress him.” FUCK THAT SHIT. Ratseclisa’s FIB friends can do that, and very likely ARE doing that. I have FIB planes flying over me every week in their little planephag chaos circles. Can Q send planes? NOT IMPRESSED.
I trust TRUMP. I’m starting to demand bona fides from everybody else.
As a “dangerous conspiracy theorist”, it is now my duty to do my job, and post a rather startling conspiracy theory. However, there needs to be a bit of context here.
This post – “done” and ready to go – sat in the can on my heavily FISA-monitored WordPress account for almost a week, allowing time for people of various kinds to see it and react to it. I chose NOT to publish it immediately. In fact, I am now CHANGING THE INTRO substantially to make allowances for the effects of having let people – both GOOD and BAD – see it.
I’m not changing the important parts – just this introduction. You will see why shortly.
Sometimes, you just have to let the other side make a move as a form of confirmation.
Originally, this post was framed from the viewpoint of “HOW ARE THEY GOING TO TAKE OUT BERNIE THIS TIME?” But NOW it seems like the forces of darkness and injustice are actually back to the same old problem they had before, and which became extremely clear to me as I researched the political context timeline of Dylann Roof…..
“HOW ARE THEY GOING TO TAKE OUT *BOTH* TRUMP AND BERNIE THIS TIME?”
How do I know that I got their goat?
Look what dropped today. It ain’t all me, but trust me – I helped. “BASELESS.”
Yeah, right. SUCKAS!
QAnon, a baseless but sprawling pro-Trump conspiracy theory, began online in 2017. It has since attracted thousands of followers, bringing what researchers call a cult and what the FBI says is a potential domestic terror threat into the offline world.https://t.co/mJ30CWyGbK
From its start, QAnon has been bound up with "MAGA" communities online. The core belief is that the president is heroically battling entrenched evil — however outlandish and unfounded — and it can now be frequently seen at Trump campaign rallies.
The seepage of conspiracy theorizing from the digital fever swamps into life offline is one of the more unsettling developments of the Trump era, in which the president has relentlessly pushed groundless conspiracies to reshape political narratives for his benefit. pic.twitter.com/1yXCy9pkUi
Several Republican politicians at local, state, and congressional levels have signaled interest in QAnon. Matthew Lusk, running unopposed in a Republican congressional primary in Florida, openly embraces it, saying its anonymous creator is a patriot.
Researchers who track conspiracy theories say there's a potential for violence by unstable individuals who fall under QAnon's sway, particularly in the fraught political climate of the 2020 election. pic.twitter.com/wfZ8egt25I
There have already been several such QAnon-linked incidences, including one in 2018 when a man with an AR-15 style rifle and handgun in an armored truck had a standoff with police and demanded the release of a report on the government investigation of Hillary Clinton's emails.
In its intelligence bulletin identifying QAnon as a potential domestic terror threat, the FBI warned that social media was serving as an incubator for groundless theories and inspiring followers to take action. pic.twitter.com/EUgvIKWNNU

There’s no “potential for violence”. Stop LYING, New York Times. YOU are on the side of murderers who have ABUSED the entire mechanism of government, and you will pay dearly for it, but NOT by the hands of your victims.
You will pay THIS WAY.

Funny that I am unable to access her tweet on Twitter, but the WordPress Twitter plugin API can do it. New York Times? No problem. But not Lisa.
It’s called censorship, folks. They feed us their communist Russia! Russia! Russia! hoax bullshit for 3 years, and then they DARE to call US the “conspiracy theorists”, as justification to SQUELCH OUR VOICES.
PREPARE FOR JUSTICE, NEW YORK TIMES. We do not need your fake news. You’re GOING DOWN.
And PEACEFULLY, you PRECIOUS PRICKS.
So let’s begin. Let’s look at what they’re SO AFRAID OF.
Part 1. The Background. Targeted Killings Hidden Under Psychological Trauma Events. THE PAST.
In 2015 and 2016, I saw many dirty tricks deployed against Bernie Sanders by the Hillary Machine, both in the news and in my community (broadly speaking). There is a “deep blue Hillary zone” nearby, which I was able to observed closely, and I was quite shocked how efficiently they put out the “Bernie burns” that would flare up. Posters ripped down. Chalking washed away. Hillary’s city employees were ALL OVER IT.
However, there was ONE slick move against Bernie that VERY few people saw. And even the people who saw it, were overwhelmed and instantly defeated by the unique and powerful psychology of “traumatic death unquestionability” – something which makes psychological trauma events so delicious to the highly conspiratorial, as dependably safe ways to murder problematic people like witnesses.
I have NEVER believed that the Dylann Roof murders – the Charleston church shooting – was anything less than an act of Bolshevik murder and blood hoaxing, using controlled and guided opposition. But it goes WAY, WAY beyond mere cui bono.
The reason is that I always had the murder in the correct context – deep suspicion – due to my intense interest in the 2016 Presidential Election, and all things affecting the 2015-2016 Presidential PRIMARY PROCESS.
Sundance, over at CTH, identified the Deep State / GOPe plan to – AT BEST – elect Jeb Bush, and – AT LEAST – remove Donald Trump. This “Roadmap” proved extremely useful in predicting most of the sneaky and downright malevolent moves made *by Republicans* against CANDIDATE Donald J. Trump.
There was, however, a similar but smaller-casted bit of kabuki theater going on in the Democrat party. I watched it with great interest, as all the intellectual Bernie lovers I knew from my old career days were thrown to the wolves by the DNC. Less politically astute – many of them being “self-unaware socialists”, they had no idea how badly Bernie was getting screwed. But in the same way that I could see TRUMP getting screwed, I could also see BERNIE getting screwed.
In the Democrat “roadmap”, “excused white guy” Bernie Sanders was to be USED as the “old white guy” to keep Hillary-phobic voters from fleeing the plantation for the left end of Trumpsville. This is not a bad ploy, actually. In fact, it’s pretty ingenious. The PRICE for whites and/or males to stay utterly unaccusable within the PC-DNC, was to move just a smidgen to the left, while still keeping all their guns and their now-unassailable white skin and/or testicles.
However, Bernie was NOT supposed to win. He was supposed to tag along in the slow lane, keep Democrats voting Democrat – to lose graciously – and to send his support afterwards to HILLARY CLINTON.
The problem? Hillary Clinton was such an incredibly and intrinsically terrible candidate, that Sanders actually polled very well against her. Too well. And worse still, Bernie was designed to work well for Hillary against wishy-washy, low-energy Jeb Bush – not stake-in-the-ground, high-energy Donald Trump. A “fake center” could not be created with Bernie Sanders, who Trump even referred to as a “communist” very early in the process.
Bernie Sanders became more of a liability than an asset to Hillary Clinton. SEE SETH RICH.
Candidate Sanders was probably “shields down” to Hillary Clinton’s spying, even in 2014, thanks to her strong Deep State support, but when Bernie announced his candidacy publicly on April 30, 2015, the fight was ON. The reactions to this choice were NOT what Hillary Clinton hoped to hear.
Bernie started raking in SUPPORT and MONEY. All of the BADNESS of Hillary Clinton – the YEARS of KARMA that had built up, were sending support to the most credible alternative – BERNIE.
In the immediate aftermath of the Charleston shooting, which happened 48 days later on June 17, 2015, I was able to find online evidence – multiple sources – that black political leaders in South Carolina, including Rev. Clementa Pinckney, the most important victim of the shooting, were still holding “pro-Obama, anti-Hillary” views, and were WELCOMING THE CHOICE of Bernie Sanders. One of the quotes I read was almost taunting Hillary and the DNC with the possibility of Bernie support. These black religious leaders – who have POWERFUL influence over the votes of “the black bloc” in South Carolina – were asserting leverage on Hillary’s campaign. They were part of the FORGOTTEN AMERICANS that President Trump loves to talk about – using the ONLY leverage they thought they had – their VOTES IN THE PRIMARY.
By the way, I dare anybody to find these articles now. I’ve tried many times. As far as I can tell, it all went down a classified memory hole. I should have taken screenshots. But I wasn’t yet schooled on the utter mendacity of not just FAKE NEWS but BAD COPS in June of 2015.
This was internal Democrat politics, which can be EXTREMELY ugly.
Remember when the communist wing of the DNC, aligned behind Tom Perez as candidate for DNC chair, and against Islamist-wing candidate Keith Ellison, actually used several black and brown radicals to topple Jewish gravestones, and a young hacker in Israel to phone in hoax bomb scares to Jewish community centers?
Did you notice that they let people with Q shirts and gear into the same Trump rally where there was a REALLY WEIRD Q post just a couple of hours earlier? I think there may be a connection. I know this is a much different (and less catastrophic) interpretation than a lot of them – …
Remember – these little media-saturating hoaxes were just minor, post-election ugliness. Nobody died. 2020 was a LONG ways off, and control of the DNC was not absolutely essential to save the possibility of Hillary 2020.
In contrast, when Bernie announced in late April 2015, there was a significant chance that he could overtake Hillary’s campaign as the “Obama inheritor”. The FUNDRAISING by Bernie was beginning.
It helps to look at a TIMELINE of Bernie’s campaign – HERE:
The big gap on the left is the time between when Bernie announced (04/30/2015) and the FIRST Democratic Debate (10/13/2015).
What happened in between these times? Well, during the time prior to 06/17/2015 – the date of the Charleston shooting, Bernie Sanders was already threatening to become the “Obama successor” over Hillary Clinton. More on that below.
And – oh – funny coincidence – ONE DAY BEFORE THE SHOOTING – on 06/16/2015 – guess who announced HIS bid for the Presidency?
https://youtu.be/Ab9AnZaLL1U
Yes. It was NO ACCIDENT – IMO – that the ANNOUNCEMENT of the Trump candidacy was LOST in the WIND of Charleston. By design. You will see more proof shortly.
My read of this is that the Dylann Roof shooting – possibly coordinated with anti-Trump CIA embeds in the FBI and “elsewhere” – was designed to deal with BOTH the Sanders problem and the Trump problem.
If you are having trouble with this concept – that politically useful “wing-nuts” under FBI surveillance might be not just USED but GROOMED for political gain rather than simply stopped, please read my own experience with the way that the Comey FBI seemed to try to groom hopeful shooters and other “left-politically useful” bots, and to some extent still does.
Based on the TIMING, Dylann Roof’s murderous act was far more than needed to take out Sanders, but it was potentially “not enough” to deal with Trump – hence the close timing to Trump’s announcement of candidacy. And, on February 19, 2016, that thinking was indeed proven correct. Roof was enough to take out Sanders – but not enough to stop Trump.
Notice that Trump’s very astute failure to eliminate “Little Marco” Rubio early on, gave him the edge in South Carolina, by keeping Rubio votes from going to Cruz. Rubio polled very well in Pinckney’s district – see full details here:
That support would have gone to CRUZ, had Rubio been no longer viable.
Notice how STRONGLY Hillary defeated Bernie in South Carolina. Bernie actually did somewhat BETTER in Pinckney’s district (State Senator, 45th district, Charleston), probably because of lingering distrust of Hillary Clinton.
Now – stop for a second and re-read what I just wrote.
STATE SENATOR. Where did THAT come from? I thought this was just the killing of 9 worshipers. Sure, one was a Reverend if you read through to the end of the article – but – wow – a State Senator, too?
Clementa C. Pinckney, South Carolina State Senator, 45th District, 2001-2015. Prior to that, for 4 years, he was a State Representative.
Notice that the Fake News media AVOIDED characterizing this as being, in any way, potentially POLITICAL, or even directed toward a politician, or even directed toward a political leader. If you watched the fake news positioning of the man and the incident, Pinckney was a churchgoer victim first, a reverend second, a political activist third, a politician fourth, an elected official fifth, a former state representative sixth, and a CURRENT STATE SENATOR last.
This is how LOOK SQUIRREL works. Very subtly.
In fact, I found it remarkable that the media tried to concentrate on all victims EXCEPT Pinckney. The Fake News sure seemed to want to talk about the oldest lady, or the bravest woman victim, or the two who hugged each other, but they seemed LOATH to talk about the Reverend, or to single him out in any way.
FAKE NEWS. They truly are the enemy of the People. Even when they’re being “nice” and sympathetic.
So WHY did the media frame this as a CHURCH SHOOTING, when in reality, the most important person to die there was not just a Reverend, but a STATE SENATOR?
When the whole affair REEKS of POLITICAL ASSASSINATION – NOT MERELY HATE?
Let’s look at that in detail.
If you don’t understand how the Dylann Roof shooting worked, to secure Hillary Clinton the Democratic 2016 Presidential nomination, I will spell it out completely.
The MOTIVE is clear. If Clementa Pinckney wasn’t solidly behind Hillary, she was WOBBLY. If he was behind Bernie, she was GONE. Fundraising was already beginning – more on that later. A BERNIE win in South Carolina – right around the time that people regard Iowa and New Hampshire FLUKES as being washed out – would DEVASTATE Hillary’s chances to get back into the White House.
South Carolina was a classic bottleneck. Hillary had to go through it, and Clementa Pinckney was the GATEKEEPER. He was the QUEENMAKER.
Or the KINGMAKER.
Pinkney KNEW he had good cards. But he had no idea how much of a CHEATER he was playing against, in Hillary “Ma Cankles” Clinton. And it was worse than that. Hillary had forces behind her which had killed PRESIDENTS. He didn’t stand a chance. NONE. Wiped off the map as a HERO. The easiest way to remove him.
Stalinism – Maoism – they don’t take prisoners when DEATH serves their interests better.
So what about MEANS and OPPORTUNITY?
Yeah. Now THAT part is interesting.
Mass shootings are PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA. They are designed to HIT YOU – and hit you HARD. What you THINK later is not as important as what your GUT tells you right away. Your GUT REACTION will echo in your head for the rest of your life. Your logical thoughts may actually change. Your gut response won’t. And it will be STUCK to any later mention of the event.
The immediate message of Dylann Roof to normal people – even those who logically understand the ERROR of the thinking, is as follows:
Oooooh. Gotta do something about those guns.
Oooooh. Gotta do something about the hate.
Oooooh. It was a church. This is just wrong. No guns in church.
Oooooh. White man bad. Even the young ones. Can’t be trusted.
Oooooh. Poor black woman good. Black good. Woman good.
Psychological trauma events don’t care about your logic. That is why they work so well. They just override all that. And that is why the Cankles Left loves them so much.
And yet, psychological trauma events – especially TERRORISM – are SO USEFUL for targeted attacks at the same time, “because random”, and as I mentioned earlier, because they have a certain “unquestionability” which arises out of the psychological trauma itself.
People begins ADAPTING to the psychological trauma immediately. It’s like poured concrete. It just starts setting immediately. NOBODY wants to UNDO that – to PICK THE SCAB – to BREAK AND RESET BONE – just because there’s something wrong underneath. They just want to get back to normal in what looks like the easiest way possible.
Thus, the social psychological response to terrorism is usually stuck on the first and most obvious explanation. And THAT means that all other reasoning will adapt to it.
Bury an otherwise suspicious potentially targeted killing in a terrorist event, and “RANDOM” will simply be applied to it, no matter what.
Check THIS out – Clinton Foundation vaccine / AIDS researcher who was killed in that Kenya mall terrorist attack where the killers checked IDs. Her fiance (also killed) was creating treatment centers. I am convinced this was a targeted killing.https://t.co/2WghmF5cD0
Back to the BERNIE KILLERS. Yeah, let’s take out that old white guy’s campaign. Dig the psychology.
Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump were both OLD WHITE GUYS who support – more or less – the Second Amendment. Bernie’s support for RKBA is really QUITE abysmal, now typically getting a “D-” from the NRA. In fact, I think he may even be “going for broke” by matching the confiscation talk of his opponents. HOWEVER, among “Bernie bros”, the fact that Bernie will make clumsy, waffling defenses of the Second Amendment, is actually enough to make a difference to those on the left who own guns. Bernie is within THEIR Overton window on guns. And sure enough, Hillary repeatedly used Bernie’s limited defense of the Second Amendment to attack him.
But Bernie wasn’t the ONLY person who Hillary was attacking, early in the primary season, immediately AFTER the Dylann Roof Operation:
You need TWO URLs here – one for the original article, and one in case “they” do some cleanup here, similar to what “they” did with Clementa Pinckney’s critical comments about Hillary.
You need to read the article, but THIS MUCH is key. AND I QUOTE:
Behold, Hillary Clinton somehow blaming Dylann Roof killing nine people on the stupid crap that comes out of Donald Trump’s mouth. Via Politico:
“We have to have a candid national conversation about race and about discrimination, prejudice, hatred,” Clinton said in an interview with KNPB’s Jon Ralston. “But unfortunately the public discourse is sometimes hotter and more negative than it should be, which can, in my opinion, trigger people who are less than stable.”
“For example,” the former secretary of state added, “a recent entry into the Republican presidential campaign said some very inflammatory things about Mexicans. Everybody should stand up and say that’s not acceptable. You don’t talk like that on talk radio. You don’t talk like that on the kind of political campaigns.”
There is much more in this amazingly short article, including TWO LINKS (one and two) to Hillary Clinton’s support for a constitutional amendment to prohibit crowd-funding of political media (meaning the results of Citizens United, such as the Tea Party). Yeah, let that sink in. She wants a “First-Killer” amendment.
But let’s get back to the timeline. There is some REALLY interesting stuff here.
There is so much here, it’s easy to get overwhelmed.
For starters, you may not have internalized ANYTHING after your JAW DROPPED while reading that Hillary was in Charleston the SAME DAY that the church was hit and the Bernie holdout was assassinated. But yes, she was.
WHAT ARE THE ODDS?
If you click on this speech – which is not easy to find – it obviously has NOTHING to do with any issues which Hillary is going to be able to fire up her voters with. This is BORING. There is no way that she is going to fire up her base over jobs.
Another link, just in case you don’t believe me. Also dated 06/17/2015.
Notice that Hillary was on the NORTH side of Charleston in the AFTERNOON, with the article posted at 2:46 PM EDT, and updated at 4:47 PM EDT.
Dylann Roof’s murders were THAT NIGHT – at 9:05 to 9:11 PM EDT. He had last modified his manifesto website at 4:44 PM EDT, presumably before leaving for Charleston, saying “at the time of writing I am in a great hurry.”
Roof apparently left Columbia at 6:13 PM EDT, per the lead FBI investigator, and arrived in Charleston around 7:45 PM. He walked into the Church around 8:16 PM, and walked out at 9:06 PM (some disagreement with numbers above are noted).
It is very interesting to read the Wikipedia entry for the shooting, and these words about James Comey from that entry:
Roof had a prior police record consisting of two arrests, for trespassing and drug possession, both made in the months before the attack.[56][57] According to then FBI DirectorJames Comey, a police report detailing Roof’s admission to a narcotics offense should have prevented him from purchasing the weapon used in the shooting. An administrative error within the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICBCS) excluded Roof’s admission (though not the arrest itself) from appearing on his mandatory background check.[58][59]
I simply have to wonder if Hillary had a bad meeting with Pinckney, or if Pinckney had actually stood up a meeting with Hillary. North Charleston was part of his political stomping ground, by the way.
Several commentators noted a similarity between the massacre at Emanuel AME and the 1963 16th Street Baptist Church bombing of a politically active African-American church in Birmingham, Alabama, where the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) killed four black girls and injured fourteen others, during the civil rights movement. This attack created support for federal civil rights legislation.[21][23]
But enough about this strange coincidence, at which point Hillary no longer had to give boring speeches about jobs for young millennials and black people – speeches that she knew damn well nobody would believe anyway.
The next point in the timeline is the next day. Hillary Clinton has LITERALLY left the scene of the crime, and is now in Las Vegas.
Just listen to Hillary’s speech.
It’s even more uncomfortable to watch her “telepromptering” from a distance in this version.
Something bothers me about this, but it’s subtle, so I’m going to let others figure it out themselves, and we’ll compare notes.
Now we move forward to the NPR interview with Hillary Clinton, where she began linking Roof to Trump, also on the 18th, and the media which picked it up on the 19th and 20th.
Note that Hillary didn’t use Trump’s name in her remarks, but made it extremely obvious who she was talking about, and the media then supplied Trump’s name in many of the headlines the next day.
This is the perfect example of the “wrap-up smear” that Nancy Pelosi spoke of so fondly. Only it’s worse, because it’s very clear to me that SOMEBODY backing Hillary Clinton killed a FLOCK OF BIRDS with ONE STONE.
removed the problem of Clementa Pinckney and other black leaders playing hard-to-get
sucked all the oxygen out of the Trump “escalator ride” entrance into the race
began attaching a VIOLENCE MEME to the Trump campaign from DAY TWO
began psychologically conditioning black voters on WHITE MALES AND GUNS
made it impossible for Bernie to win the support of South Carolina’s black bloc
opened up a cultural Marxist front on “Confederate statues”
created the Charleston precursor event for Charlottesville psychological operation
Oh, and don’t forget how JIM COMEY helped on the little “background check” accident.
Yeah. THAT Jim Comey.
Once one realizes what was going on here – how blacks were actually treated in this scenario – while the Democrat old-guard then sucked up to the survivors with their “who cares for you, baby” lines, in a way that matches up beautifully with Malcolm X and what happened to HIM when he stood up to the Democrat party – it’s not all that hard to understand why Q, the Oathkeepers, Dinesh D’Souza, and others with deep psychological insight on the Hillary Left, tend to view them as closer to Nazis than Bolsheviks. Indeed, this makes great historical sense – particularly if one views NATIONAL SOCIALISM as simply a watered-down and more “patriotically acceptable” version of INTERNATIONAL SOCIALISM.
But now for the grand finale. A FANTASTIC link with many images of the funeral of State Senator Clementa Pinckney, where Hillary Clinton, of course, shows up on 06/26/2015.
Here is just SOME of what Flep is seeing. This is all FLEP talking.
LINK 2:
More and more evidence is coming out that shows the Establishment Democrats and MSM are petrified that Bernie Sanders will be the Democrat nominee. They will claim it is because Bernie can’t beat our President. That is not the number one motivating factor. It is the fact that the Democrat Party will belong to Bernie and his crazy disciples (AOC, Talib, Ilhan etc.) going forward.
The loss of power is what scares them the most.
DNC Members Discuss Changing Rules To Stop Sanders From Getting Nomination At Convention, Report Says | The Daily Wire https://t.co/xKA3F7ekVP
Members of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) have reportedly started discussing the implementation of a plan aimed at harming Democrat presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), a socialist, in hopes of derailing his campaign.
“In conversations on the sidelines of a DNC executive committee meeting and in telephone calls and texts in recent days, about a half-dozen members have discussed the possibility of a policy reversal to ensure that so-called superdelegates can vote on the first ballot at the party’s national convention,” Politico reported. “Such a move would increase the influence of DNC members, members of Congress and other top party officials, who now must wait until the second ballot to have their say if the convention is contested.”
Failed far-left Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein responded to Politico’s report by writing on Twitter: “Desperate DNC members consider rule change to let superdelegates vote on 1st ballot to stop Sanders. If the DNC rigs another election against its voters, it’ll be asking for biggest #DemExit yet by those who want an actually democratic party. #DNCRigging”
Dave Wasserman, U.S. House editor of the non-partisan Cook Political Report, wrote: “Yeah, this is going to end well.”
Another move to try and stop Bernie from becoming the nominee occurred the other day when the DNC changed their rules to assure Bloomberg being on the debate stage in a state he won’t even be on the ballot in.
The DNC drastically shifts debate requirements, opening the door for Bloomberg to join the stage starting in mid-Februaryhttps://t.co/vusk0JBTQS
The Democratic National Committee is drastically revising its criteria to participate in primary debates after New Hampshire, doubling the polling threshold and eliminating the individual donor requirement, which could pave the way for former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg to make the stage beginning in mid-February.
Candidates will need to earn at least 10 percent in four polls released from Jan. 15 to Feb. 18, or 12 percent in two polls conducted in Nevada or South Carolina, in order to participate in the Feb. 19 debate in Las Vegas. Any candidate who earns at least one delegate to the national convention in either the Iowa caucuses or New Hampshire primary will also qualify for the Nevada debate.
The new criteria eliminate the individual-donor threshold, which was used for the first eight debates, including next week’s debate in New Hampshire. Bloomberg, the self-funding billionaire, has refused to take donations from other individuals, which has thus far precluded his participation in any of the debates since he joined the race late last year.
Larry is absolutely right! The Democrats are screwed on both ends of the sword.
What they don't realize is that the "anyone other than Dinobernie" apocalypse will be equally bad when Bernie-ites stage a no-vote revolt. https://t.co/CRaMTpN6Vm
But it gets better, if you’re Bernie. Again, FLEP talking.
Link 2:
I truly believe that we are in the mist of watching the Democrat Party collapse right in front of our eyes. The 2020 Democrat Primaries are exposing that fact for us. The Democrats will have two parties coming out of the 2020 election. The Establishment Democrats and the Progressive/Socialist/Communist Democrats.
The problem for the Establishment Democrats and MSM is that they represent the old guard. The Progressive Democrats represent the new guard. By having the Progressive Democrats win the nominee will guarantee TRUMPISM reigning for the next 50+ years. There is no way that either party can beat the Trump Republican Party.
Bernie Sanders guarantees not only our President getting re-elected but he will win with over 350+ electoral votes and he will win the popular vote as well. He is a pure communist. Yes 30% of Americans love him and will vote for him. 55% of Americans LOVE our President and will vote for him.
The remaining 15% is what I consider the Establishment Democrats. Many will vote for our President or will sit out the election. Our President will not only win every state that he won in 2016, he will also win Virginia, Minnesota, New Mexico and New Hampshire. I also wouldn’t be surprised if he wins Nevada, Colorado and my long shot, Oregon.
Democratic donors and party insiders are warning that large swaths of their voters could stay home — or even defect to Trump — if Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders snags the nomination.
“I’ll still put a Bernie Sanders bumper sticker on my car, but a lot of people won’t,” said Jim Kessler, executive vice president for policy at Third Way, a Democratic think tank not aligned with any candidate. “They’ll say ‘I don’t like Donald Trump, but I don’t like Sanders either. We survived four years of Trump, maybe we’ll survive another four years.’ They’ll stay home, vote third party, or vote for Trump.”
With all that being said, the Establishment Democrats and MSM realize that Bernie is going to be the nominee.
It’s a tradition for The Des Moines Register to publish the final poll of the campaign season on the Sunday before the Iowa caucuses. Except this year, they refused to publish the results citing a “polling problem“.
The CNN/DMR cover story is that one pollster may have pronounced Buttigieg name incorrectly. The real reason…. Bernie has a big lead.
They even tried to float another balloon on Sunday. John POS Kerry sent out a tweet (which he deleted) before the Mullahs and the entire Iranian government could emphatically back his run.
John Kerry — one of Biden's highest-profile endorsers — overheard Sunday on phone at Des Moines hotel explaining what he would have to do to enter the presidential race amid "the possibility of Bernie Sanders taking down the Democratic Party— down whole." https://t.co/htAdgv5vaE
Former Secretary of State John Kerry — one of Joe Biden’s highest-profile endorsers — was overheard Sunday on the phone at a Des Moines hotel explaining what he would have to do to enter the presidential race amid “the possibility of Bernie Sanders taking down the Democratic Party — down whole.”
Sitting in the lobby restaurant of the Renaissance Savery hotel, Kerry was overheard by an NBC News analyst saying “maybe I’m f—ing deluding myself here” and explaining that in order to run, he’d have to step down from the board of Bank of America and give up his ability to make paid speeches. Kerry said donors like venture capitalist Doug Hickey would have to “raise a couple of million,” adding that such donors “now have the reality of Bernie.”
Biden’s top surrogate has no faith in Biden to beat Bernie? With friends like these … https://t.co/zJSlaAUnPQ
The fear is wonderful to watch! Even in the one state SleepyCreepy Joe is suppose to win, things are heading in the wrong direction for him, the Establishment Democrats and MSM.
“New South Carolina Poll is a Disaster for Joe Biden”
Joe Biden may have just received the worst news of his campaign, as a new poll shows his support in his firewall state of South Carolina collapsing along with his once-dominant support among black voters, with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Tom Steyer closing the gap.
Biden’s support in South Carolina had held steady all campaign season, and the hope was that it was strong enough to allow him to survive early defeats in Iowa and New Hampshire and pull off a big win ahead of Super Tuesday when the largest single-day haul of delegates is available. If the new Post and Courier-Change Research poll is right and his lead is evaporating, then it puts much more pressure on him to win either Iowa or New Hampshire.
While the poll shows Biden still in the lead, he’s at just 25%, with Sanders at 20% and Steyer (who has carpet-bombed the state with TV ads) at 18%. Biden once led in the poll by as high as 31 points.
Especially alarming for Biden is that he’s down to 30% support among black voters, who make up two-thirds of the South Carolina electorate and are a crucial voting bloc in the later states. Last summer, Biden captured half of black voters. Steyer is now at 24% among black voters, with Sanders at 16%.
California has 416 delegates up for grab on Super Tuesday. Biden once again is in a free fall.
Updated 2020 California Democratic Primary Polls + Spread + Average
Look at the decline of Joe Biden in California, one of the two big prizes on Super Tuesday March 3.
The other is Texas, where he's also in free fall while Bernie surges.

If you want a taste of where it went from here – to the caucuses in Iowa that were SABOTAGED by some sketchy defective app designed by HILLARY ASSETS (yes – can you believe it?), then check out Flep’s NEXT round-up!
Nevada Democrat party paid Shadow $58k in August & the Iowa Democrat party paid Shadow $63,183 in two payments over Nov & Dec, suggesting app wasn't developed until just months ago.
Shadow is a spin-off from PACRONYM, a New Democrat dark money/superPAC hybrid. pic.twitter.com/4URUwr68le
How convenient for @JoeBiden that not only was the Iowa Poll showing him in fourth place spiked but also him fighting @amyklobuchar for fourth place won’t dominate coverage for the next 48 hours.
Well, that was something else. I am trusting Flep on this. Bernie is appearing to be a BIGGER problem for the DNC than he was in 2015 and 2016. But worse still (for the DNC), we are already into 2016, and there is no “Bernie-killer” in sight. This isn’t like June of 2015, when the NUKE for Bernie had already been delivered in Charleston.
Now, Q
This is the CLINCHER. This is the question to ask yourself when it’s ALL OVER.
Look at it again. REMEMBER – it started the moment that Bernie holdout Clementa Pinckney died, and Hillary flew away to Las Vegas, to speak to that Latina organization.
Trump announced, and the operation to take him down began, taking out Bernie in the same stroke.
It is very simple – and Q keeps referring to it as the D-CON, because that is what it is – a CON JOB.
How the Division / Demoralization Circus Works
to skin type A, offer sympathy which requires acceptance of ideology and victimhood status
to skin type B, offer repentance which requires acceptance of ideology and victimizer status
secretly support real cross-type victimizers of both types, to create victims of both types
stoke mutual blame and recrimination, both publicly and secretly
ideology creates division through self-consciousness and required perception of difference
So how do we fight back? By understanding what they are doing, and not allowing it to complete.
“they want you divided” – spot their division memes and refuse to play along
“endless war” – spot the scams and refuse to get sucked in
“let’s you and him fight” – hit the “referee” instead of each other
“they are keeping you down on the farm” – don’t accept “one’s place”
“assertions of privilege” – refuse to accept or perform self-criticisms
“sweet lies with trade-offs” – just walk away
“societal rewards for accepting status” – refuse to accept either
“implicit superiorities in accusations” – accept NEITHER
The most important overall rule is simply NOT TO PLAY THEIR GAMES.
PUSH BACK.
YOU are not Dylann Roof.
And even more importantly, YOU are not one of the sick people who sent Dylann Roof to kill Reverend Clementa Pinckney, so that Hillary Clinton would be President of the United States.
But you might be somebody who will help me pick up the sword of justice, so that we can bring the “killers behind the killers” TO JUSTICE.
Part 3. Stopping The Race-Igniting Killers, And The Killers Behind The Killers, Who Use Violence And Psychological Trauma To Change Our Elections And Our Country. THE FUTURE.
Most people are utterly unable to “go there” and raise suspicions that Dylann Roof – who turned out to be SO politically useful to the Clinton Machine – was somehow PUSHED to do exactly WHAT HE DID, WHEN HE DID.
Hey – I have nothing to gain or lose. There are many things I know are FACTS that others simply don’t believe. I am happy to be there. Adding some strong suspicions that others see as “conspiracy theories” bothers me not in the slightest.
However, I believe that publishing these thoughts is going to INHIBIT the Clinton Machine and their dubious and dangerous allies from trying this sort of thing again. EVERY TIME they use these “MK Killers” to pull a job, they are closer to the WHOLE SHEBANG blowing up in their faces.
This is exactly why I posted this article. SUNSHINE makes people think twice about doing things that do NOT bear scrutiny.
Right now, the Clinton-Biden-Buttigieg-CIA Cabal “wing” of the DNC is clearly trying to take out Bernie using “unethical but not illegal” means. At some point, it’s going to be clear that they need stronger and not necessary legal means, where the “normal” litmus test of Democrat ethics will be applied – the question of “will we get caught?“
If people are WATCHING for the scam, it’s much less likely they will USE THE SCAM.
So let’s WATCH FOR THE SCAM.
However, watching for the scam is not enough.
This is where I need to give some LOVE TO THE ENEMY.
Yes. If you are a follower of Christ on this principle – no matter what your religion – then you can’t just sit there and say “good, good, good” while those lovably DUMB Bernie Bros fall into nasty traps, thereby making sure that our wonderful VSG has FOUR MORE YEARS.
FOR EXAMPLE – what about all those Bernie Bros who give people the impression that VIOLENCE is OK?
BREAKING: #Expose2020 Part IV: Two More @BernieSanders Staffers Radicalism EXPOSED; ‘Gulags and Kulaks Exaggerated’; “Make Plans For Extreme Action”; “Destroy Property” and “Abolish Landlords…So we Don’t Have to Kill Them”
I mean, it’s time to be really honest. The Clinton people tried to dump the “violence” rap on the TRUMP supporters, but if anybody out there has a problem with “pushable yahoos” – well, it’s gotta be the Bernie Bolsheviks.
The Gambino Family “QAnon Hit Man”? Spare me! That was CA3 and Reagan-Hinckley cover-up, I’m very certain. There was “Staten Island” and Gambino all over that one. Very bad hoax plus discreditation operation. A lot of internal Mafia hit, too.
Nope – a QAnon rap ain’t gonna stick, because it’s gonna be very obviously BOGUS.
Bernie is the guy who’s “at risk” here.
Most of these Bernista yahoos who are being busted by Project Veritas are really just embarrassing, mouthy, simplistic dopes. They are not only a problem for the left – they are EVERYWHERE – on the right AND the left. The Alt-Right is full of similar yahoos, with the same tattoos and piercings.
Mouthy yahoos who say dopey extremist things are not – in my opinion – significantly dangerous in a stable political environment like we live in now – meaning the TRUMP administration. These people DO BECOME MUCH MORE DANGEROUS under a socialist regime, like the Soviets or the Nazis, because they WILL carry out extreme, cold-blooded acts, when the STATE OR PARTY ASKS THEM. As long as the STATE is benign, and the PARTY is forced to be benign, THEY are – more or less – benign.
Thus, it is very legitimate for Project Veritas to “expose the Bolsheviks”. But they are not the really severe threat that I want to talk about. They are a slight danger to the possibility of Bernie winning the general election, but let’s be honest – THAT is already NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, in my opinion.
No – it is the Congressional baseball shooter – James Hodgkinson – and people like Dylann Roof – who are the real danger. These are the unstable boulders that can be pushed to roll down on the innocent at the right time and place, by unscrupulous intelligence agencies and others who are in possession of advanced tools descended from CIA’s MK ULTRA toolkit.
They can provide the PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA that shifts votes by DOUBLE DIGITS.
However, another disconnected mock-up / frame-up creation like Roof is NOT going to stop either Trump OR Bernie. NOPE. It will have to be another James Hodgkinson – somebody STRONGLY linked to Bernie – THAT is what can stop Bernie.
In my opinion, Bernie can protect himself against these sorts of dirty, bloody con jobs by engaging in the same kinds of preventative measures which have helped the Trump base STAY COOL. “Base pacification” is possible, and it’s a good thing.
COLD ANGER is the way to get hot-tempered people off the highly poisonous diet of hot anger.
From cold anger, LOVE isn’t that far away.
Will the Bernie Bros listen? Who knows. But even if they don’t, WE can watch out for them, because even though they may be across the political spectrum, WE can choose to be our brothers’ keeper.
Hey – we know ALL ABOUT being PUT DOWN by the HILLARY MACHINE.
Stay VIGILANT, my brothers and sisters. On everybody’s behalf.

A ‘miasma’ is a noxious, toxic atmosphere or exhalation. It was thought that a poisonous ‘miasma’ would rise from swamps and putrid, decaying matter, that would cause disease.
‘Miasma’ comes from the ancient Greek word for “pollution”, a noxious form of “bad air”.
Used in a sentence:
The leftist Enemedia spews forth a miasma of nastiness, lies and false narratives.
Or:
Areas under Democrat control exude a miasma of despair and decay, from poverty, unemployment and machinery lying idle.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from Ryan Forrest, titled ‘Hero’s Grit’:
A poltroon is a craven and dastardly coward, devoid of any spirit or courage.
The word ‘poltroon’ has been around since the 16th century and was also used to describe a lazy, idle sluggard, or a devious mean-spirited wretch.
‘Poltroon’ is said to be derived from the Latin word pullus, which meant young animal or chick…and is thought to be the origin of calling someone “chicken” for being cowardly.
Used in a sentence:
The perfidious poltroon, Adam Schiff, should be prosecuted for the lies he has told the American people.

Visual Descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful:
Header Image: Is a massive Tree growing up out of a deep canyon; the base of which has an intricate internal structure of several floors of large rooms with arched openings and long windows. A soft light is shining out from them. There are two suspended pathways, leading to the base of the Tree on opposite sides of the canyon.
There are streams of water falling magically off of the huge leafed-out branches of the Tree…cascading down into the canyon below. It’s as though the Tree itself, is the source of the water. The sides of the canyon are covered in lush, verdant tree growth…but none are as massive as the Tree growing up from the canyon. Second Image: Is a cozy interior view of a stairway against the wall leading down into a large area with overstuffed chairs, a couch and soft lighting. There is a bannister made of winding tree branches. Throw pillows and throw rugs add to the comfy atmosphere. Third Image: Is President Trump with a solemn look of resolve on his face.
If you actually look at Drudge any more – if you can stomach the relentless negativity – you can see that it’s simply not the same.
Or later…..
And of course with the “Heroic Bernie” artwork you will see below.
There is some interesting history on the downfall of the Drudge Report, which may explain things. Once you hear this stuff, you will realize that there is NO HOPE for the Drudge Report.
Indeed, I regret to inform you that the DRUDGE REPORT is DEAD.
You are hereby STRONGLY ADVISED to FIND A REPLACEMENT. And WE are going to HELP.
Hey, it’s not like I’m the only person who noticed…..
What’s Going on With Drudge? Rasmussen Claims ‘Matt’s Not There Anymore…Word Is He Sold’
One can even go back to the late 2018 and see that an author at the wonderful site Fellowship of the Minds could see something was VERY WRONG over at Drudge Report.
Now – a third piece (link also below) was published still later, and it is the biggie. Note that all three of these were published AFTER Fellowship Of The Minds was TAKEN DOWN by WordPress, before being restored later, without apology, and with total damage to most if not all previous links.
In the third post, Dr. Eowyn of FOTM recalled the site history on Drudge, and put together a fascinating timeline. This timeline points out that prior to FOTM being taken down, Eowyn had noted the problems with Drudge, only to be suddenly abusively attacked by a previously sugary poster who denied any such change in Drudge’s site. Let’s just say that it sure seems like a “ROLCON” taking action to me.
I believe that I may have even been one of the commenters who left a rare comment on one of the two earlier FOTM articles on Drudge, which Eowyn mentions in the THIRD article, regarding rumors that Drudge had a new left-leaning boyfriend.
It turns out that Eowyn investigated this claim, and found what appears to be some sort of relationship change which happened around or before January 2016.
A couple of our readers speculated that Matt Drudge turned to the dark side because he’s gay and has a new boyfriend. The never-married and childless Drudge has consistently denied the rumors of him being homosexual, but in January 2016, Southfloridagaynews.com reported that he had given away half of his real estate holdings to Juan Carlos Alvarado, his roommate of eleven years.
THIS then figures into some kind of combined BUSINESS PLUS FAMILY relationship change, which Eowyn discovered in the following article and the video it references. You can read about it in the FOTM piece, the article below, or just check out the video.
The bottom line here is that PERSONAL CHANGES in Matt Drudge’s life brought him back into the company of leftists and Democrats, so that is very likely a factor, in addition to BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP CHANGES.
Allow me to dump some links that are helpful for getting even finer details:
Now – there is ONE OTHER LINK that I think is VERY critical to look at. I believe that this connects to Dr. Eowyn’s earliest observations that Matt Drudge was getting “wobbly”.
Matt Drudge Might Have Sold Drudge Report or Just Sold Out
There is something in this article that shocked me. See if you can pick up on what that was.
Some are reporting that Matt Drudge has moved left politically to please his new owners. Allegedly, he signed up with Google recently. Google had purchased his father’s website, RefDesk.
Others say a former Weekly Standard writer — a never Trumper — bought Drudge Report.
Matt Drudge, the founder and editor of the influential site DrudgeReport.com, has hired Daniel Halper, two sources familiar with the move confirmed to POLITICO.
Halper was most recently Washington bureau chief of The New York Post, a position he held for just under a year. Halper was previously online editor at the conservative magazine The Weekly Standard and in 2014 published the book “Clinton Inc.” It was not immediately clear what his new position will be at The Drudge Report.
He’s out there, and he does have some interesting comments that show he’s maybe a Weekly Standard kinda guy, although probably not a communist spy like I suspect his namesake may be.
Is this guy related to FAHT BASTAHD? I have no idea, and I’m not sure it actually matters.
Drudge Report simply ain’t the same anymore. I think it’s safe to say at this point that Drudge Report was GOOD WHILE IT LASTED.
One of the problems with the “Drudge model” of extreme privacy and isolation from his fans, is that the mystery of the site allows for silent decapitation and replacement. That has a lot of effect. So naturally, if an adversary wanted to take over Drudge report AND not indicate WTH was going on, that would work very nicely to mislead millions of voters. So thus I find it kinda interesting that Drudge got wobbly BEFORE 2016, and then descended to new depths of wobble before 2020.
WHATEVER. It’s done. MOVE ALONG.
Do I Need a Drudge Replacement?
The answer is most assuredly YES. Every minute that you hang out on Drudge, you are exposing yourself to what amounts to communist propaganda, forwarded to you by sad tools of America-hating globalists and Trotskyist Kristol-family CIA puppets. You are letting #NeverTrump decide what you need to be reading.
I mean, COME ON. Chris Christie on a BICYCLE.
Now, there are people who are going to tell you stories about how you “need to hear both sides”, and that it is therefore not a problem that Drudge is “leaning left”. They will tell you lies that “you need balance”.
There is a problem with that – the ASSUMPTION OF SYMMETRY.
Consider that you have an idea that is very close to the truth. Some LIAR comes along. He says “you need to hear both sides”. “The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.”
You see where this goes? Right?
COMPROMISE WITH SUCCESSIVE LIES – EVEN THE FIRST – WILL DRAG YOU AWAY FROM TRUTH.
YOU. DO. NOT. NEED. TO. COMPROMISE. WITH. LIES. OR. LIARS.
EVER.
EVER.
EVER.
NOT EVEN THE FIRST TIME.
Are we good? Do you see?
You really need to DROP FAKE NEWS like a RED HOT STEAMER!
And DRUDGE is now FAKE NEWS.
Drudge Replacements
We now turn to the problem, of who to turn to, to replace Drudge.
Not everybody needs the same medicine here. So I’m not going to recommend ONE. I’m going to recommend THEM ALL, and give you the tips that will help you pick the right one FAST.
All of them have great features. I’m going to point them out. And what I DON’T like as well.
Option 1: THE LIBERTY DAILY
The Liberty Daily is probably my favorite, because it keeps as much of the Drudge Report as possible, but it has an outraged sense of humor which has really grown on me. Almost every reference to nasty Democrat Jerome Nadler prefaces his name with “Stomach-Stapled Stalinist”. Likewise, “Bug-Eyed Burbank Bolshevik Adam Schiff” is seen almost daily.
The famous Drudge format is kept – albeit with too many ads. Red text, columns, simple underlined text, and one or two big items, probably with a picture.
This is an excellent option for those who LOVE Drudge for its simple, familiar look and feel.
What if – instead of trying to STAY with Drudge – you went to an aggregation site that was MOAR? What if the site tried to be almost a SUPER-AGGREGATOR – to aggregate the aggregators?
This site is highly recommended by Dr. Eowyn of Fellowship Of The Minds. It is also highly recommended by ME. If I wasn’t so hooked on some of the stupid features of The Drudge Report, I’d go STRAIGHT to Whatfinger.
Check out the MIX of styles that Whatfinger uses to provide a wide variety of information. Also, the text is very BIG for us oldsters.
Very nice.
There are then PAGES AND PAGES down, just like that, with TONS of items in three columns.
Example:
And it just keeps going on – TONS of information – WAY more than a typical Drudge Report.
Option 3: CITIZEN FREE PRESS
You can tell how effective Citizen Free Press is, by the fact that WordPress sends their links STRAIGHT to the SPAM BUCKET – if not simply deleting the posts as “KNOWN” SPAM, so that I never see them, even in the spam bucket.
People here are frequently 100% UNABLE to post links to articles with CFP URLs.
I’ll be blunt – Citizen Free Press almost certainly has a case to SUE WORDPRESS – or more specifically their parent company, Automattic (automattic.com). In particular, the spam control vendor Akismet is almost certainly involved in this censorship. But no matter who is at fault, for a few thousand dollars, an IT forensic firm could EASILY prove that Citizen Free Press is somehow being blacklisted. (HINT – you want a JURY TRIAL).
Note that I generally like WordPress – but that “like” does not extend to not pointing out that they or their spam operation Akismet are interfering with our free speech by limiting the speech of CFP. Yes, we can use “tricks” to get around a SMALL part of the censorship, but not most of it.
Valued members of our community who persist in posting things that WordPress does not like, but that WE DO, risk being nearly PERMA-BANNED to the SPAM BIN.
Sorry. We are NOT putting up with this.
Note that it would be dead easy for WordPress to provide baseline tools to keep people out of spam – but they DO NOT provide these. Nor does Akismet. Likewise, there is no machine learning of who gets liberated from spam, to KEEP THEM OUT. Oh, this is HIGHLY intentional. It would give the PEOPLE control.
Like I said, easy lawsuit.
Now – back to our regularly scheduled article.
Citizen Free Press is like a . . . . . L – O – N – G – E – R – , – S – P – A – C – E – D – – – O – U – T . . . . . version of the Drudge Report. Each section is LONGER and H I G H L Y _ S P A C E D and in RED, WHITE, AND BLUE.
I will only give you SAMPLES of each section.
Personally, I just don’t like the look and feel of CFP. All that space makes me very uncomfortable. However, MANY people love the site.
My thinking is, if you are still on Drudge, TRY THIS. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
Here goes. It’s YUGE and there’s MOAR! I’m cutting a LOT out here…..
Option 4: THE BONGINO REPORT
The Bongino report – like everything else about our lovable fellow patriot Dan Bongino – is DRAMATIC.
That’s just his schtick. Bongino does DRAMA. He does TICK-TOCK. He does BOMBSHELL, and EXPLOSIVE, and HANNITY and LOVELY SARA CARTER.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. SIGH. But still, if you LOVE THE EXCITEMENT (and we all need to feel that TRUMP RALLY EXCITEMENT of POLITICS AS ENTERTAINMENT), then you may want to try a WRITTEN version of Dan Bongino – a kind of TEXTCAST instead of a PODCAST.
One of the things I REALLY like about the Bongino report is that it has a nice mixture of TEXT and VISUALS.
I also like that it’s SHORT and SWEET – a lot like the Drudge Report. Maybe even shorter.
The Bongino Report is slick and professionally produced. A lot of folks like that. It’s very “Fox News without Paul Ryan”.
Give it a look. If you’re on Drudge and the other alternatives look too primitive and amateurish, even by Drudge standards, then consider The Bongino Report. It’s CLEAN and ATTRACTIVE.
The following is an example of the Bongino Report IN ITS ENTIRETY.
Option 5: GAB TRENDS
There is no Drudge replacement option that is more rebellious than Gab Trends. While there is commenting on some of the other sites (such as CFP), Gab is the leader in free speech commenting, and Gab Trends is infused with that capability.
Again, the basic format is standard 3-column Drudge, but there is deeply built-in voting and commenting.
Give it a look. You may like it – especially if you already like Gab. Like Gab, the commenting leans more toward young, anon, alt-right, non-boomer, etc. Could be exactly your thing!
Option 6: NOQ REPORT
The NOQ Report is a little like all of them – something like a mixture of Whatfinger, Bongino Report, Drudge, and Citizen Free Press. It’s a nice average, and you may like it.
One of the best features, for those who like categories of special interest, are the categories of special interest that float at the top of the page, and are shown in some of the images below. Each menu item in the menu bar has a nice menu of popular alternatives (LIKE GUNS!) underneath it.
Check it out. NOQ Report is very no-nonsense. They also don’t give out much information about themselves – PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA – so I can’t really say much more.
Option 7: NEWSAMMO
NewsAmmo is beautiful simplicity, and I think a lot of Drudgies would migrate here if they knew about it.
NewsAmmo is almost “more Drudge than Drudge”. The site is clean, simple, and designed to be easy on the eyes. They don’t even have those “upper left corner” headers like Drudge – the title is right at the top. No excess frills.
IMPORTANT: It’s specifically intended to be good for mobile devices.
You’re gonna love it, even if you ultimately choose something else. It is the work of anonymous patriots in Texas and Nebraska. It has a very comfortable feel for that reason. Folks just like you.
Option 8: ZENITH NEWS
Zenith News (https://zenith.news) is ALMOST a Google replacement. Imagine Drudge Report designed around SEARCHING through it. That is what Zenith News is – DRUDGE SEARCH.
It’s best to take this one TWO WAYS.
First, look at the SEARCH PAGE which serves as the homepage.
Now you can click directly in the top menu to go to different news categories and functions, but let’s look at a SEARCH first. Let’s say you are going to “Drudge” specifically for news about something. Well, try searching HERE instead, and you WILL get results – like these.
I searched on “elise stefanik impeachment” (no quotes). Here is what I got.
Alternatively, the same search terms, but clicking on images, gave me these:
Now, if instead you go to the top and click on “Z-News”, you will get a “Zenith-curated” selection of news, a bit like the Drudge Report, but in one column with pictures:
Likewise, clicking on World News will give you PLAIN OLD NEWS about everything, in two columns.
There are MANY other functions here that veer away strongly from the rest of the pack, and I’m not going to cover them. There are ways to SUBMIT ARTICLES. There are ways to register and log in. Zenith is much more than just an aggregator – it’s like a fledgling alternative news agency.
Check it out. VERY interesting. A proud product of WYOMING.
Option 9: INFOGALACTIC NEWS
Infogalactic is a bit like Wikipedia, but it has a news function – Infogalactic News – that is a LOT like Drudge Report.
Infogalactic News seems a bit youngish and “alt-right” to me. It’s almost like the Twitter Banned Alt-Right built their own Wikipedia, Google, and Drudge Report.
Not necessarily a bad thing. Will you like it? Take a look!
The list of articles is a bit shorter than what you get with any of the others, BUT there are a few interesting differences:
every article cited is ARCHIVED (with a link)
for every article, a link to an Infogalactic SEARCH is provided
two pages are issued per day (AM and PM for that day)
links at the top lead to the prior and next page
At the bottom of the page is a list of people (and links to their sites) which gives a flavor, IMO, of the content chosen for the site. Do you like those people? If you do, Infogalactic News may be just the right thing for you.
We finish our roundup of Drudge alternatives with one that feels a LOT like a conservative “super-Drudge” – known as Rantingly.
If none of the other options seem appealing, try this one.
Rantingly has good coverage of Twitter pundits and Twitter threads. It’s also more visual than Drudge, yet the link text feels very much like Drudge Report.
SO – my recommendation?
Give them ALL a try!
And do you know what?
I’m just betting you can find one that brings back the magic of the old days!
This Merry Warrior Monday Open Thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KMAG/KAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
Yes, it’s Monday…again.
But it’s okay! We’ll get through it.
Free Speech is practiced here at the Q Tree. But please keep it civil.
Discussion of Q is not only allowed but encouraged. Imagine that! We can talk about Q here and not get banned.
Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.
With the Storm upon us…please remember to Pray for our President.
