“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
Welcome back to Wolf’s Pub! It’s Friday. Can you say “AMEN!”
One can hardly keep up with all the information, news, disinformation and misinformation that’s out there. It can really sap one’s spirit.
Trying to keep up, sort the truth from the lies, be well informed but not overwhelmed, is a challenge. It was beginning to get to me. I sat around fuming for a few weeks and then it dawned on me to cloister ourselves for a weekend. What if we stayed away from media? What if we put the mobile down, cut out social media, even got out of range of various adult kids and grandkids?
What if we spent time in the Word, and with each other? What if we ate very simply and prayed more than usual? Grandpa was up for it, so a few weeks ago we shut out the WORLD and found that there is a whole universe inside that we’d neglected.
From Friday evening until Sunday evening we had an extended Sabbath rest. Meals were simple soups and hearty bread. We did the minimum of chores. Mostly, we just RESTED. A lot of time was spent reading the Bible, devotionals, and praying.
By Sunday evening we felt refreshed. It was as if TIME had slowed down to a manageable pace again. We reconnected with God in a deeper way (and boy did we need that). We were better able to discern needed course corrections.
The upshot is that we felt a freedom come upon us during that time. We had been feeling enslaved to media, to keeping up with the ever-changing news. We had been feeling burdened with the cares of this world.
I think in a way, I was slipping into feeling a sense of responsibility for things that were outside my control. I needed that cloistered weekend retreat to regain a proper sense of perspective.
That weekend made me look around my surroundings and see where I had been neglecting some of the things that make life wonderful. Remember when we were kids and we could lay in the grass and watch the clouds go by, seeing all kinds of creatures and shapes in them?
Remember quiet, sunlit corners of a house where you could curl up and read a book? Remember watching twilight come on, when the birds still sing but fireflies have begun to twinkle?
Someone once said that if we want to know the proper pace of human life, we should spend a day in nature just observing…and then go and do likewise.
That weekend was a revelation. I haven’t been the same since. I got something back that these last couple years have tried to steal from me—a sense of peace and freedom.
Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
They answered Him, “We are Abraham’s descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, ‘You will be made free’?”
Jesus answered them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.
John 8:31-36
Freedom is a hallmark of our Republic. This is the “Land of the Free.” The darkness that overshadows our institutions is not permanent. It is no more permanent than the shape of a cloud. It will dissipate as we hold onto the freedom that first comes from within.
The battle is always in the mind first. The Synagogue of Satan seeks to reign through despair and fear and tyranny.
I do not consent to fear. I do not consent to tyranny. I do not consent to despair.
I consent to Faith, Hope, and Charity.
I am free born.
And I aim to stay that way.
HOUSE RULES
We’ve got gallons of Sangria coming along at the bar, but first let’s review the Rules. Wolf has managed to keep this place going through thick and thin, and we salute him with a sense of gratitude and camaraderie.
Those who need to have a case of the nasties can head over to the Utree (where there’s some “dangerous freedom”), which is also a place to reconvene in case something happens here.
THE PARTY SPIRIT
I’ll never forget the summer party we had one year in upstate New York. I can’t remember the exact reason for the party, but we ended up with about 100 people in the backyard. Father Brown (God rest his soul) had insisted we serve Sangria, which the Italians in our group had perfected.
We went through gallons of the stuff that night. The Party Spirit was upon everyone. It reminded me of one of those times when my parents used to have bridge parties and us kids could hardly sleep for all the laughter that wafted up the stairs for hours on end.
It was like that. There seemed no end to the Sangria. Let’s put it this way, I don’t even remember what kind of food we served. I vaguely remember a grill. I just remember laughter and friendship and more laughter.
We will have times like that again.
SANGRIA IS SUMMER SIPPING AT ITS BEST
Sangria is a Spanish/Portuguese wine punch, and there are many different recipes for it. In general, sangria has red wine (sometimes white), fresh fruit (typically oranges, apples, and lemons) and often brandy or another spirit. Here’s a couple videos that give different recipes. They both look scrumptious:
Also, here’s a whole bunch of recipes for Sangria. Take your pick! For our teetotalers here’s a recipe for a Virgin Sangria. You can find some history about Sangria here and here and here. And just because Sangria is all the rage in tapas bars nowadays, I’ve included an ancient Roman recipe for an olive spread in this video below:
Whether today is a day that will live in infamy, or a day where nothing much happens, I salute the Qtree! I’m singing along with this video:
It’s Fight the Good Fight Friday at Wolf’s Pub. Welcome everyone.
Know your enemy is an important rule in spiritual warfare. The minions of Evil roam the earth, looking who they may devour.
We see this not only in our own lives when we are spiritually attacked, but in the lives of nations. Can you say ‘The Great Reset’?
The Occult is Out There
An individual in my extended family has been involved in the occult for many years. It has been an education, and for that I am grateful. Other aspects, not so much.
NOT THE PAINTING I WAS GIVEN
At any rate, years ago this person gave me a watercolor painting of an owl. The artist was obviously talented and I liked the painting, but I immediately saw there was an occult element to it, the all-seeing eye for one thing. My relative was adamant that I have the painting framed and hung on my wall. I was assured that I was being given a valuable item.
Needless to say, as soon as the relative left, I looked up the artist. Not a well-known artist, I was still able to access social media to find that this artist was a practicing witch. I knew the painting was a talisman or token of some type, which was meant to exert control, to gain knowledge, to basically have an occult tie to our household.
Pagan DOES NOT MEAN GODLESS or ATHEISTIC. Pagans worship and traffic with creatures (spiritual beings), not the Creator. Many spiritual creatures desire to be worshipped as gods. Unfortunately, there is no shortage of people who will comply.
In past times, I would’ve simply put the painting (it was rolled up like a scroll) in a drawer and forgotten about it. It would not have occurred to me that it might forge a tie or bridge of some sort. But I had learned the hard way (a story for another time) that these things should be disposed of properly so that any spiritual ties are completely severed.
The owl has a storied occult history in many cultures. It is associated with death, darkness, the hunt, the all-seeing eye, wisdom, hidden knowledge, etc. The Qtreepers had a little conversation about the owl the other day and provided some great links about the meaning of the owl in some systems.
We all have been lately introduced to the understanding that the elites who dominate this world are deeply involved in these esoteric systems. That said,
“There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.”
William Shakespeare
The owl is not intrinsically evil. It is merely a part of creation, a lovely creature. However, evil ensues when its personified characteristics are bent to malicious aims by those who traffic with demons.
I wanted the painting gone as soon as possible. I looked up how to destroy a talisman. Be careful, there is a lot of silly stuff out there. One certainly does not want to try and confront the demonic without being well prepared.
Many a worse entanglement has happened when an unprepared individual tries to take on the demonic. Even very experienced people stumble. Just as this world is carved up into hierarchies, so is the spiritual world. On the whole, I would say that one must understand it is the power of the Christ that does the work, and not any self-induced power. Even the Son of Man, while speaking of the Father’s judgment said, “I can of mine own self do nothing…” (John 5:30).
I followed a simple procedure that concurred with what a priest had shared with me, an exercise that a lay person could do.
Late the next afternoon I performed the little exercise (perhaps exorcise would also work): prayers to break the spiritual attack, burning the object, and scattering the ashes in running water. A stream down the road received the ashes of the painting.
I didn’t feel any sudden sense of freedom, but it did feel right to have that item out of our home and to have disposed of it through the elements of prayer and meaningful action. It was very satisfying to burn that thing to ashes and then disperse it in running water.
The next morning was beautiful and sunny. I glanced out the window and saw something at the end of our driveway. I called to my husband and we went out to investigate. There in the street, without a discernible injury, was a huge Great Horned Owl. It was dead as a doornail. It was still warm. Its wingspan was nearly five feet.
We looked at one another in wonder. We believed this was a sign that the evil intent had been destroyed. There was no tie between us and those who were desiring to gain some sort of occult power over us. To God belongs the glory. He it is that performs wonders. We are merely witnesses.
Now the modern rational mind, the scientific mind, if you will, can have a lot of issues with stories such as these. They may immediately begin calculating the odds of destroying an owl talisman one day and finding a dead owl at the end of your driveway the next day.
They may shrug off the incident as a coincidence. They may not believe the story. But those of us who have experienced such things throughout our lives, or even infrequently but with great impact, are not unduly shocked.
It is manifestly NOT SHOCKING to many Christians that there is an organized and devious movement to destroy Christendom and hence the western understanding of what it means to be human.
The machinations of Herod live on in those who desire power. What is Bill Gates but another Herod who desires to depopulate the world through birth control, abortions, and now vaccinations that cause sterility. Who was Jeffrey Epstein but another Herod type who thought of young girls as something to be used and discarded. There are many heinous things attributed to the elites and we don’t need to enumerate them here.
But, get a load of this. The elites have run mad (again) with the idea they are gods and have the power to build and create that which has already been done. Really, the whole paper below is full of this kind of stuff. It’s a gold mine of info about what They have in store for us:
As we continue to better understand and control the mechanisms that underlie biology, we could see a shift away from vitalism – the idea that living and nonliving organisms are fundamentally different because they are thought to be governed by different principles.12 Instead, the idea of biology as having predictable and digitally manageable characteristics may become increasingly common as a result of living in a biodigital age.” (Get it? You are no different than an inanimate object.)
“Digital technology can be embedded in organisms, and biological components can exist as parts of digital technologies. The physical meshing, manipulating, and merging of the biological and digital are creating new hybrid forms of life and technology, each functioning in the tangible world, often with heightened capabilities.”
“There is also the potential for malicious, reckless, or accidental release of deadly lab-made viruses. For example, a virologist at the University of Alberta was able to use synthetic biology techniques to recreate horsepox (a virus similar to smallpox) by stitching together DNA ordered by mail to match the horsepox genome sequence published in 2006.74“
“Maximizing healthiness could involve a broad array of more precise behavioural and nutrition-related interventions. As data becomes more widely accessible, health could become a status symbol. Access and funding for nootropics (drugs to improve brain function) could raise social policy issues.”
“63] Bioprospecting – the search for naturally occurring chemical compounds and biological material – is an activity currently applied to non-human organisms. The importance of large datasets related to the biology and behaviour of individuals means that bioprospecting could be extended to humans as well, with researchers and firms actively looking to sample specific racial, ethnic or cultural groups for specific genes or micro-biome characteristics.”
BACK TO THE HOOTS
Remember when Alex Jones infiltrated the Bohemian Grove? Good times, eh? Gosh, I was so innocent back then.
https://youtu.be/FpKdSvwYsrE
This slow reveal of the depths of evil that infect our world is a good thing. When evil is revealed it begins to lose power. Bill Gates has fallen from grace. Speaking of Alex Jones, here he is talking about the fall of Gates (video won’t embed, so click on the link).
The World Economic Forum has canceled its latest meeting. Dr. Fauci is going to take the fall for all his lies in service to the Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex. Let’s enjoy these small victories but prepare for the next onslaught. Time to fortify ourselves.
Sloe Gin is Back!
This spiritual war we’re in is slow going. Time for a drink as we contemplate this existential battle against evil. Today’s special is the Sloe Gin Fizz. Us Americans took this autumnal British alcohol (you can read about its history here) and ‘summer-ized’ it.
I admit to having fond memories of the Sloe Gin Fizz from my salad days. From what I’ve read, Sloe Gin had lost its popularity in the 70s, but I guess the small taverns and bars of rural Illinois were behind the times, because us girls drank an awful lot of those back then.
Well, it’s back. And there are a lot of distilleries offering Sloe Gin nowadays.
Basic recipe for a Sloe Gin Fizz:
HOUSE RULES
Thanks to Wolf, we have this lovely place to gather and converse upon the important topics of the day. Please honor him and each other and keep things civil here. We don’t know what this day will bring, but we can face the bad and laud the good with arms entwined and a toast on our lips.
Review the rules here. If you need to act out, the Utree is a great place to go, as well as if we need to reconvene there for some reason.
Let us consider an important thing: man is made in the image of God in the sense that he reflects, in his faculties, the attributes of the Most Holy Trinity: the power of the Father, the wisdom of the Son, the love of the Holy Spirit. The Great Reset wants to overturn this connatural correspondence of man with his Creator, Lord, and Redeemer in a blasphemous parody: unhinging his memory, distorting his intellect, and perverting his will.
Everything that is done in the name of globalist ideology has this unacknowledged but very evident purpose: we must no longer remember our past and our History, we must no longer know how to recognize Good and Evil, we must no longer desire virtue and reject vice; indeed, we are driven to condemn the Good as intolerant and to approve Evil as a liberation and redemption from Christian morality. And if God is rejected as Father, there must no longer be paternity even in the natural order, because natural fatherhood is a mirror of divine paternity. This is why there is this theological hatred against the natural family and against unborn life. If God did not die for us on the Cross, there must be no more suffering, no more pain, no more death, because in pain we are able to understand the meaning of sacrifice and accept it for love of Him who shed His Blood for us. If God is not Love, there must no longer be love among men but only fornication and the satisfaction of pleasures, because if we desire the good of others, we are led to share with them the most precious gift that we have, Faith, and we cannot abandon them to fall into the Abyss in the name of a perverse concept of freedom. They are not atheists; they do not deny that God exists; rather, they hate Him, just as Lucifer hates Him.”
Archbishop Vigano
Now for some interesting links and videos
Episode 962 on War Room. (Also, do take the time to watch Saturday morning’s War Room for more information on transhumanism).
Wolf’s Pub is open for business. We’re gonna concentrate on the good news today and enjoy an Elderflower Fizzy (aka Elderflower champagne or wine) a beloved summer drink in the UK. We’ll get to that in a moment.
Can you feel the change? Our President is BACK and his “From the Desk of” comments are lighting up the political scene again. Thank you, Mr. President! We missed you very much.
The establishment Republicans are going down like bowling pins in a strike. Lib Cheney had her sorry butt kicked to the curb, and wasn’t it so satisfying? Kevin McCarthy is now in line for retirement. Asa Hutchinson, we’re coming for y’all. Your time “serving” in government is almost up. MAGA is here to stay.
And yes, Texas RINOs, we are coming for you too! Hear that, Jared Patterson? LOL.
That duplicitous Michigan GOP chair, Heider Kazim, had his clock cleaned the other day. Adios, buddy. Don’t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya.
MAGA is a juggernaut. It won’t be stopped. Nothing can stop what is coming.
Here’s one of our favorite MAGA fighters. This woman has more fight in her pinky finger then a bear. The Washington Post had a hissy fit because Mighty Marjorie confronted that buck-toothed AOC. AOC ran for the hills. See folks, that’s how you do it. CONFRONT THE LIES AND THE LIARS. Call a spade a spade.
Since we’re in a garden party mood, let’s all lift our pinkies in the air and be extra civil today. The sun is shining, the weather is warming, and the good news is flowing. Wolf’s rules are here. The Utree is here for any brawling, and in case we need to reconvene for some reason.
“We are proud to be flag-waving American patriots, and we could not care less about what they say and think. Also, we will continue to recite the Pledge of Allegiance with the phrase “one nation under God.” As Americans, we will not shut up and quit. We will be victorious over the Marxist insurrectionists in this country. We will never wave the white flag of surrender to the Marxist cancel culture movement, but we will keep our God, Constitution, guns, and freedom of speech. To say less than the truth is not the truth. The truth cannot be compromised or negotiated.”
Add to that, a plethora of independent blogs, conservative political sites and websites where patriots are fighting the good fight. Our duty is to pass them along to friends, family and frenemies. I know I’m driving a few people nuts, but I’m not giving up.
Now to our fizzy summer drink, Elderflower Champagne. This refreshing drink weighs in at a light 3-5% alcohol content, unless you are using an Elderflower liqueur. But today, we are working with the old-fashioned elderflower fizz, which countless UK households have been making for generations:
Good Ol’ Traditional Elderflower Wine (this is a simple recipe although you can find recipes that do NOT use the yeast and nutrients). Many home brewers simply use the wild yeasts present on the elderflowers themselves to begin the fermentation process. Using wine yeast will ensure fermentation and a higher alcohol content. Watch here for the simplest of recipes, using only the wild yeasts on the flowers:
Here’s another video with some different techniques. There is a plethora of recipes to brew your own Elderflower Champagne.
In addition to Elderflower wine (champagne, fizz) there are Elderflower cordials, liqueurs and cocktails.
Here is a nice video by Lady Carnarvon of Highclere Castle (not up on the Fine Folk but she seems delightful) making elderflower cordial:
In honor of our growing gardens, today’s drink special is an English Garden:
And just for nice, here’s an article about the wonderful things you can do with elderflowers for food and meds.
CCP/FAUCI VIRUS NEWS
They are having to give away money, food, hunting licenses, college tuition and gift cards to get people to submit to the jab. Simple desperation. I’m almost embarrassed for them, if they weren’t such evil eugenic jackasses. The side effects up to and including death are turning people away in droves from taking the experimental shot.
Dr. Fauci is headed for justice. He is a murderous traitor. Do you think he’ll turn before he’s arrested, or will he stay loyal to his Big Pharma masters and the CCP scientists?

HERE COME THE WARRIORS
The military (at least the retired officers) are speaking out. They are being blunt. Finally. Ya gotta know it’s not just the retired officers. Let’s leave it at that.
“The flag officers take aim at the Democrats’ “tyrannical government,” their “full-blown assault on our Constitutional rights in a dictatorial manner,” and their “population control actions,” including “censorship of written and verbal expression.” After enumerating what can only be called “a long train of abuses,” including the government’s intentional creation of a crisis at the southern border and intentional destruction of America’s newly won energy independence, the administration’s decision to give aid and comfort to Iran’s regime of terror, and the Democrats’ use of the military as “pawns” to intimidate conservatives while coddling Antifa and Black Lives Matter insurrectionists, the retired U.S. generals and admirals warn Americans as bluntly as the French generals warned France: “The survival of our Nation and its cherished freedoms, liberty, and historic values are at stake.”
HIS FRAUDULENCY’S FIRST 100 DAYS
Epic fail.
The discredited fact-checkers, pretend journalists and assorted Deep State propaganda outlets are lauding Joe’s glorious first three months as Resident of the United States. What buffoons they’ve all turned out to be. They can’t stop lying.
From America First to America Last. Read it and rejoice that the Trump Curse remains powerful. Scroll down for a LONG LIST of Puppet Biden’s strings being pulled every which way but loose.
In order to tamp down the outrage over the Biden-induced border crisis, Uncle Joe had to pretend to start up the wall construction again. LOL. What a guy.
QTREE FORUMS ARE UP AND RUNNING
Go here and take a look around. Pretty durned nice, eh?
I’m gearing up to start the Pub Club. The Great Books await. The Iliad first? Meet at the forum one day a week? Suggestions, please.
PATRIOTS AND PRAYER WARRIORS
Last, but not least, our prayers are music to God’s ears. Like a sweet savor that rises heavenward, our petitions and praise please Him. Let’s not forget to keep praying for our nation, the White Hats wherever they may be, and each other. Special prayers for those going through physical, financial, and emotional struggles right now. God bless and keep us and make His face to shine upon us.
The ACTUAL forum is ready for people to begin USING IT.
AND I’M READY.
RULES are minimal, other than basic civility as per HERE, in all forums but ONE.
THE EXPLAINER.
There are THREE types of forums.
Main Forums
Q&A Forums
Test Forums
The number of forums will GROW AS NEEDED in each of the 3 types.
Main Group Forums
The MAIN group is where most posting will be.
Right now, there are FOUR forums in the main group:
General Non-Political
General Political
Article Discussion
The U Tree Air B&B
There is a sticky welcome message as a TOPIC in each of these.
General Non-Political
This is the forum to start any topic which does NOT fall into “ranty stuff” – which would be contentious points of religion, culture, and politics.
None of that stuff here, please.
Bring all the nicey-nice stuff here. Also the sads, the personal, and the poignant. GOOD STUFF. Religiously motivating – NOT religiously argumentative.
Do you have a non-political forum or subforum idea? Let me know. Or just try it as a TOPIC or series of topics first. Experiment!
But keep this place NICE and FRIENDLY.
Abortion, euthanasia, desecration, news, libtard insanity and ChiCom mendacity – all of THAT belongs on the next forum.
General Political
This is where to start topics on the FIGHTS in politics, culture, and religion – where most of our normal discussion goes. This is the WAR ROOM. There may be some war here, but it will be CIVIL. So to speak. If it gets out of hand, WE’VE GOT OPTIONS.
Article Discussion
This is where AUTHORS can re-direct commenting on their articles, or where discussion about one or more articles ON THE MAIN SITE can be held.
I will demonstrate this with the commenting for this very article. There is a LINK at the end that leads to the discussion.
The U Tree Air B&B
This is a substitute for MOST of the discussion on the U Tree. Advantage – it’s OURS and not a property of WokePressDotCom. Disadvantage – if you can’t get on the main site, you can’t get on this one, either. So continue to use The Real U Tree to get back in here, when you’re locked out.
Rules will be like The U Tree.
Civility? Shirley, you jest!
Q & A Group Forums
This is where we will put any forums which need to use the special “reddit style” / “tech style” format.
Right now, there are only two forums – regular and test. Our 2 prior test threads are in the TEST forum. People can use that to TEST ideas for this forum group, too.
As we gain experience and people have ideas about something the want to try here, we can add forums. I suspect this won’t get a lot of use, but I could be wrong.
Test Group Forums
This is where I stuck all the old test threads from the different formats EXCEPT Q&A, which don’t really translate to the THREADED format used in both the MAIN GROUP and the TEST GROUP.
The Simplified and Extended tests are now here, in Threaded format. They won’t make a lot of sense that way, unless you keep that conversion in mind. Most of our testing was in the Threaded format, like here, so it all makes sense.
Feel free to TEST USE OF THE SITE HERE. However, try not to encourage discussion here. We want most of the discussion to be on the main board. This is a place to test stuff, then bring it back to the main discussion board.
But if you mess up here, no biggee!
This place is like a quarry where you can shoot guns, blow things up, and try JACKASS stuff, to see if it works.
I could call these the “Hold My Beer, I’m going to try the EXPLODING BACON VIDEO SPOILER” forums.
Test it here – if it works – use it on the main forums. Actually, I don’t really care if you do stuff on the main forums, either, but some people need extra reassurances, and I REALLY REALLY don’t care if the test forums get messed up.
That’s it. Go for it.
Discussion and comments are at the link below. This is a demo. I will close “normal” comments on the article itself.
Another Friday, and time to gather at Wolf’s Pub. Welcome, and sit back for the smackdown! I’ve had it with the liberals. Enough is enough. We are long past niceties.
Our drink special today is a dose of Liquid Liberty, aka Hard Cider. Americans were cider drinkers from before we became the United States of America. The Founding Fathers were drinkers and fermenters of hard cider. It was pretty much the drink of choice for a long while, until ale and beer slowly supplanted hard cider, and it fell on hard times. The Revolution, birthed partly in the many taverns of the colonies, was fueled on alcohol, according to this article.
“It’s tough to say, but John Adams may have been the biggest drinker of the Sons of Liberty. He began every day with a draft of hard cider before breakfast. He drank three glasses of Madeira, a wine fortified with rum, every night before bed. During the bad old days under British taxation, Adams wrote to his wife, “I am getting nothing that I can drink, and I believe I shall be sick from this cause alone.” He died at 90. Of old age.”
A bar tab at the time of the Constitutional Convention included eight bottles of hard cider, among an astonishing amount of other alcohol:
“It is impossible for Americans to accept the extent to which the Colonial period—including our most sacred political events—was suffused with alcohol. Protestant churches had wine with communion, the standard beverage at meals was beer or cider, and alcohol was served even at political gatherings. Booze was served at meetings of the Virginian and other state legislatures and, most of all, at the Constitutional Convention.
Indeed, we still have available the bar tab from a 1787 farewell party in Philadelphia for George Washington just days before the framers signed off on the Constitution. According to the bill preserved from the evening, the 55 attendees drank 54 bottles of Madeira, 60 bottles of claret, eight of whiskey, 22 of porter, eight of hard cider, 12 of beer, and seven bowls of alcoholic punch.”
And check out Cider Scene for a history lesson on the Way Back history of hard cider.
Today, hard cider has made a big comeback. Funny how things come round at just the right time. Angry Orchard is probably one of the best known hard ciders today, but then it’s owned by the Boston Beer Company, which also owns Sam Adams. Here’s a page of ciders for your perusal.
There are many local breweries that also make hard cider. You should check out your own area. You might find a delicious cider made locally.
Head over to the bar for a nice selection of hard ciders. Then we can get down to brass tacks.
HOUSE RULES
We’re supposed to be civil…with each other. Wolf’s rules are simple and finite:
If the American Revolutionaries can keep it together drinking hard cider during a battle then we can, too.
The Utree is for the knockdown stuff and to reconvene in case of emergency. On to the business.
An Open Letter to Liberals
Dear Liberal Friends (or not),
This letter has been rolling around in my head for awhile now, and I guess it’s time to let you know how I really feel about your politics. I’ve been quiet around you. I don’t share much because I know how it will cause division, and you’ve already caused enough division in our country. But I guess we are well past that now. I have seen how you treat others who are more open with their support of the Trumpian America First agenda.
You’re downright mean, nasty, uncivil, immoral and bullying. You are Anti-American. You are Un-American.
I want to address the hollowed out bubble you have lived in for many years. Some of you went to Ivy League schools. You got great jobs, met all the right people and settled in the typical enclaves of the elites. You live, work, shop, and educate your kids in these places where the people of color you see are often as educated and wealthy as you are. Have you noticed there’s no shortage of minorities in all sectors of our institutions? Surely, you see that. I mean, it’s right in front of your faces.
The hospitals in your area have lots of minority nurses and doctors. And yes, some of the more mundane jobs are done by minorities, like the landscapers, grocery clerks, and pool cleaners, and those who wipe the bottoms of the old people in nursing homes.
But somehow, you don’t see that plenty of white people are doing those mundane jobs, too. To you they are invisible. Just the color of their skin makes them not worthy of your paternal attention because…white privilege.
You’ve been convinced to feel guilty about your wealth and societal privileges. To feel better about it, you denigrate the great masses of working- and middle-class white people, who you call rednecks, racists, bigots, homophobic, ignorant and downright stupid.
If only you were somehow compelled to get to know the regular working-class and middle-class individuals that fill the everyday lives of MOST Americans. I wonder if you would be surprised to know that we all get along just fine.
Our communities have been integrated for decades. We have intermarried and raised kids together. Few think a thing about it. We appreciate each other’s diverse cultures. We work together, worship together and hob nob with each other.
Yes, there are Spanish-language masses on Sundays (that liberal dioceses have added), and there are Baptist churches that cater almost exclusively to blacks, but that is a choice we are all free to make. Are there still racist people? You bet. And they are as likely to be people of color as whites.
Your group of people has been very busy bringing back racial division. It’s you and your fellow Democrat/Socialists who are the racists and always have been. How terrible, and what an indictment of your political ideology. You have made everything about race, just when America was on the verge of making nothing about race.
The strategies of the politicians you favor have divided our national house like no other. You sit back in your wealthy enclave, protected from the outcome of these racist and divisive policies. Do you really think that you are improving the lot of anyone?
The liberal policies of the Great Society created an underclass of minorities (with TRILLIONS OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS), the descendants of which populate sections of our largest cities. Fatherless, directionless, these lost populations have turned to drugs and gangs and trafficking. It is this group of people who have most been harmed by liberals such as yourselves.
And your planners have been whipping up anger and despair in order to effect a revolution against the people who have done more to make America a prosperous and free nation—the plumbers and soldiers, and teachers and machinists, the waitresses and small business owners, the office workers and homemakers (people of all stripes). In short, the people who support an America First agenda, the Deplorables. A name with which your High Priestess, Hillary Clinton, baptized us.
Well, let me tell you something. You have lost any claim to a moral authority, let alone the authority to rule over us. And we aren’t going to give up our right to have an equal share in the governance of this great nation. You are not our betters. In fact, your nihilistic death-cult politics has put you far beneath the Average Joe.
You are the ones who are touting post-birth abortions, the mutilation of gender-confused kids, the eugenic fantasies of the academics amongst you. You are the ones who give the masses depraved entertainment that glorifies violence and hedonistic sex, and then point fingers at the mess society has become.
You have the money to mitigate the problems your politics and policies cause on a personal level (your kids are a mess, by the way.) The rest of us are left having to deal with the carnage on the ground with little resources to fix things.
For all your education and connections, you don’t know much at all. I consider you the useful tools in this revolution to overturn our Constitution and usher in a tyrannical world government. History tells us the useful tools always get consumed in the end.
However, the Deplorables will win and you will be saved. But I know you won’t be grateful. You’ll go to your graves lamenting the loss of authority and power of your tribe. The wokeness of the ruling class is a laughable testimony to your gullibility. Mark Twain once said, “All schools, all colleges, have two great functions: to confer, and to conceal valuable knowledge.”
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Your whole political identity is based on the lie that education, money, and position confer intrinsic worth. And that the higher you are in the Ivory Tower (of Babel), the more godlike you become.
I am no longer astonished at your blindness. It’s all been written about before in that Book you either willfully misinterpret or reject outright.
God have mercy on you all. You’re going to need it.
It’s Friday and thank goodness for it. Welcome back to Wolf’s Pub, the best place in town to find intelligent talk, stellar wit and wisdom, and amazing camaraderie all in one cozy accommodation.
We’ll have some liquid courage in a bit, but let’s get to brass tacks. It’s going to take courage to overcome the globalists/communists. There is no shrinking from the task of speaking up, speaking out, and standing firm against their lies and machinations. And let’s not forget the obsequious and disgusting RINOs and other assorted tools who GO ALONG TO GET ALONG. Spit. Spit. Spit.
The sociopaths don’t think like normal people. They will kill us and feel justified in doing it simply because we don’t go along with their pogrom…I mean program. Incidentally, Wolf has a fabulous Wuhan Virus/Abortion Jab post, so I won’t say anything beyond this:
That is prescription Ivermectin at 1%. It is used to treat the Rosacea form of acne. In the USA it costs $600 for 1.67 oz of Ivermectin to topically treat acne (around $50 if you have good insurance). You could head down to the local feed store and buy Ivermectin paste to treat worms in your horse and buy it for $5 for 1.87% and a quarter pound of paste.
They aren’t like us
Big Pharma has been withholding effective treatments from us for a long time and charging the citizens of the USA ungodly amounts of money for cheap meds. The truth will come out. God have mercy on the professional criminals who have imposed their ungodly rule upon us.
They LIE TO US ROUTINELY and feel justified in it. THEY DON’T THINK LIKE WE DO. These are moral zombies. You can’t reason with them. Emerald Star gets it:
House Rules
The drill: We disagree, sometimes vociferously. Fireworks are cool. But we don’t lose our cool. If MAGA Mom and I can make nice, then everyone can make nice. 😊
If you need to kvetch, head over to the Utree, where a free-for-all is allowed. Otherwise, review the Rules, and give the bouncers nothing to do but bourbon shots when the boss ain’t looking.
Standing Up to Totalitarianism
Thank goodness prudence was not at the forefront of parents’ thinking in Vail, Arizona. Whenever people stand up against the totalitarian instinct that has taken over our government, they are WINNING. The Vail, Arizona parents who stood up to the school board are a great example. In yesterday morning’s War Room, Steve Bannon interviewed one of the parents who said that their movement started with two parents, then it went to five and then hundreds showed up at a school board meeting. Watch here, or HERE:
Yesterday, President Trump told us to keep the faith and have courage. Watch here. Or (maybe, Wolf’s fingers crossed) here:
It’s more than obvious by now that our government is NOT being run by (s)elected representatives. It is being run by Big Pharma, Big Tech, assorted globalists and communists within the bureaucracy, and the CCP among other foreign influences. The RINOs are potent examples of the sellout of our nation.
Who Needs a Drink Now?
Yep. We’re going to celebrate family and family culture with Ouzo today. Opa!
Piggybacking on Absinthe from last week, Ouzo is another liquor that has its own culture and ritual, and that also utilizes anise, a licorice-flavored herb. Ouzo and Absinthe are often compared.
Here’s a nice little introduction to Ouzo, which is really quite young (19th century) but has achieved epic fame in Greek culture and abroad. Ouzo is made from must, or the leavings from winemaking, which is basically the skins and stems of grapes. Add anise and several other herbs, and there it is. Here’s a short and lovely video on how Ouzo is made:
Here’s some additional history and information about Ouzo:
And just because we love to watch Greeks dance, Dance 2019:
Out of Slavery
“Courage is the rarest of all the good traits. There are far more kind and honest people than there are courageous people.”
Dennis Prager
I have been reading Dennis Prager’s commentary Exodus: God, Slavery, and Freedom. Prager’s Rational Bible takes Scripture and makes it applicable and relevant for our times in a unique way.
He gives a great perspective on why God chose Moses to lead the Israelites out of Egypt:
“Moses fights evil. He is instinctively intolerant of suffering and injustice…Moses…was not raised among them [Israelites]. That made him far more worldly than people who were raised as slaves…Moses does not have a slave mentality. Unlike his fellow Hebrews, who were so demoralized that they could only cry out…Moses does not share their demoralization and does not merely cry out; he takes action.” (P. 24., Exodus, Slavery, and Freedom.)
Prager says, further, when discussing the God-fearing midwives who helped save Hebrew babies (Exodus 1:17),
“There is another important moral aspect to fear of God. People fear those who are more powerful than they are. Therefore, the only way not to fear powerful people is to fear God…It was the midwives’ fear of God that liberated them from fear of the Egyptian tyrant. This point is often overlooked: Fear of God is a liberating emotion, freeing one from a disabling fear of evil, powerful people.”
Dennis Prager
When I read that, a bright light went on in my head. Megawatt.
God-fearing people are the ultimate target of the Biden crew and other globalists/communists because they know such people are able to defeat evil. They may say God-fearing people are “white supremacists” or “Deplorables”, but what they really mean to attack are the People of God.
For every martyr that a totalitarian regime makes, a hundred spring up in their place. We won’t give up. We will win. We are winning.
“The secret to happiness is freedom…And the secret to freedom is courage.” Thucydides
So, some links for your reading pleasure, as we plot and plan to stand up to evil…and overcome:
Welcome back to Wolf’s Pub. It’s La Fée Verte Friday (aka Green Fairy Friday) here and we shall get to our magical drink soon. First, let us reiterate that Joe Biden did not win the 2020 presidential election. He’s an utter fraud, as are the monsters who installed him in the White House. May the Green Witch overtake them and put them where the sun doesn’t shine.
Wednesday was Earth Day. Duly noted. Eye roll to the max. Let’s put it this way: there is green, and then there is Green. Let us discern.
While world ‘leaders’ attempt to keep the dying Covid-19 scam (aka the Wuhan Virus) going, they are linking it with Climate Change and the Green New Deal. The Great Reset continues apace, although the sparkplugs aren’t firing as cleanly as the globalists and their communist lackeys would wish.
That Greenie False Prophet at the Vatican is sponsoring a New Age globalist health conference in early May. Here’s his super short speech at Joe Biden’s “Leaders Summit on Climate” yesterday, and the image below is for next month’s “Global Health Care Initiative.”
If you have any doubts about this religio-communist pretender, they should be dispelled here, where we see that God Himself is portrayed as wearing a glove, supposedly to prevent either infecting or being infected by Adam, and vice versa. What a disgusting, blasphemous act.
Archbishop Vigano speaks out. Here’s more about “Exploring the Mind, Body & Soul. How Innovation and Novel Delivery Systems Improve Human Health” conference on May 6-8th. A few of the speakers:
“Truth Over Fear summit is a three-day online gathering of 40+ frontline doctors, scientists, attorneys, researchers, and journalists, who will share invaluable and eye-opening insights into the truth behind the headlines, Covid-19, the rushed vaccine, and the Great Reset.
Big Tech does not want you to hear this information and is working hard to censor us. Most of our presenters have been silenced. In fact, the same day we published this summit, YouTube terminated our account and we are now shadow banned everywhere.”
You can sign up for free at the link. Limited time to do so. The speakers are stellar. Here’s a few:
Dr. Judy Mikovits, PhD
Arch. Carlo Maria Viganò
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr
Dr. Lee Merritt
Dr. Reiner Fuellmich
Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg
Alex Newman
Vladimir Zev Zelenko, M.D
Vera Sharav
Peter A. McCullough, MD
Senator Scott Jensen, M.D
Dr. Pierre Kory
Little Greta-the-greenhearted Thunberg (thanks Cuppa Covfefe!!) was spouting some nonsense the other day about animal diseases being linked with climate change and so on, completely ignoring that real scientists are experimenting with viruses in labs for gain-of-function use against humans, but whatever.
She’s got a new special on PBS. The propaganda is so easy to spot now and so very tiresome:
Well, let’s get to our drink special today. ABSINTHE. Oh, the humanity! This “beautiful madness” (from a poem by Peggy Amond) was known as the Green Fairy by many artists and writers of the Belle Époque.
“Absinthe began in France in 1789, initially as a healing potion. It was used to purify water and as an antiseptic. Absinthe gained in popularity during the Franco-Algerian war where many French soldiers had developed a taste for the high alcoholic “medicine.” and it became more and more popular. Because of its greenish tint, it became known as La Fée Verte (The Green Fairy). This is why French Absinthe is among the most popular.
As a result, by the end of the 19th century, absinthe was the favored cocktail of Paris and famous people were drawn to absinthe, like Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Edgar Allan Poe, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and Lord Byron, to name a few.
The popularity of absinthe wasn’t limited to Europe, as it soon found its way to the United States and in particular New Orleans, because of its large French population. Ernest Hemingway, Mark Twain and Oscar Wilde all enjoyed drinking absinthe at The Old Absinthe House on Bourbon Street. The Old Absinthe House is still there, by the way.”
Want to buy one of these? A traditional Absinthe fountain!
Here’s an article: The Five Biggest Absinthe Myths that gives a little info on its supposed hallucinogenic properties and the infamous way of serving it with a flaming sugar cube.
Be well warned that drinking Absinthe straight is a recipe for epic drunkenness. I had a bottle disappear from the house one night when my kids were at “that age.” Finally connected with my daughter the next morning after she and a friend had awoken from an Absinthe stupor.
I think she was sick for two whole days afterward. Has never had it since. I can laugh now. NOW.
Outlawing Absinthe: Gov’t thought it subversive
Watch the fun vid below about Absinthe. Around the two-minute mark your host tells how TPTB were not happy that the working man would gather around drinking Absinthe and talk politics. That and the winemakers in France were unhappy that Absinthe was cutting into their profits:
For a lovely and magical explanation of Absinthe’s attraction, watch this Swiss video that shows a second-generation distiller of Absinthe:
And here’s a last one. Basically a six-minute ad for a particular distillery, it is beautiful and dramatic:
“And the name of the star is called Wormwood. And the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.”
And here from the Prophet Amos (Chapter 5:6-8):
“Seek ye the Lord, and live: lest the house of Joseph be burnt with fire, and it shall devour, and there shall be none to quench Bethel.
You that turn judgment into wormwood, and forsake justice in the land,
Seek him that maketh Arcturus, and Orion, and that turneth darkness into morning, and that changeth day into night: that calleth the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name.”
So much to ponder there…
There was a 2017 docudrama from Netflix (yuck) that is named Wormwood, and tells the story of Frank Olsen, who may have been an MK-ultra victim.
The Russian word ‘Chernobyl’ means Wormwood, btw.
House Rules
Keep it civil. Absinthe is purportedly an aphrodisiac and gets your inner muse going, so I don’t think we’ll have a problem with incivility. However, go here for Wolf’s rules before you hoist a Wolf Shot, and we’ll all do fine.
If you need to make a date with the Green Witch, head over to the Utree. Or, if we get separated from here, head over there to meet up. And lookee here, we’ve got a forum just about up and running.
The Green New Deal is the color of money
Well, now that we have our green drinks in hand, let’s get back to Climate Change, aka as the continuing saga of sick globalists and their communist henchmen as they try to take over the world and turn it into some type of dystopian nightmare.
We must have the obligatory mention of Arch Villain Bill Gates, who is buying up farmland like there’s a fire sale somewhere.
“The report highlights one of these so-called technical ‘solutions’ through the example of synthetic food, which aims to replace animal products with highly processed ingredients, usually through synthetic biology. Billionaires are heavily investing in this growing market: Gates alone has spent $50 million in leading company Impossible Foods and actively finances several others.
Fake food is advertised as a solution to climate change and environmental degradation, but in reality, fake food has a carbon footprint seven times larger than less-processed plant proteins. Cell-based meat also emits more GHG than some animal products and recent research even suggests that over the long-term, its environmental impact could be higher than that of livestock. Far from ending climate change or world hunger, fake food still relies on an industrial agricultural model, based on monocultures, toxic pesticides and GMOs, that is destroying our ecosystems and threatening our health.
“We’re about 16 months into this GSM, with 32 more years to go. Already 2019 and 2020 saw record low numbers of sunspots. We’ve had lower than expected crop harvests due to unseasonable rains both years. The April 2021 USDA World Agricultural Product report has articles detailing Taiwan’s expected 20% decrease in rice production this year over last, Cuba’s rice production 15% below its five-year average, Argentina’s corn, Australia’s cotton, Malaysia’s palm oil — all down, all due primarily to the weather. There are some expected bumper crops, all based on expanded acreage.”
The Greening of Communism
The White House Resident of the United States has jumped in with both feet to destroying the economy and jobs of our nation with a plan:
“The U.S. emissions cuts are expected to come from power plants, automobiles, and other sectors across the economy. Sector-specific goals will be laid out later this year.
The new U.S. target nearly doubles former President Barack Obama’s pledge of an emissions cut of 26%-28% below 2005 levels by 2025,” according to a Reuters article.
AOC and Sen. Markey have introduced some type of bait-and-switch bill to take our money and pretend to provide good jobs. There’s some social justice stuff wrapped up in it, so we all know it is another shot at taking from the barely-haves and giving to the have-nots. The rich elites will laugh all the way to the bank. It’s the Civilian Climate Corps, doncha know. Channeling FDR…
It’s one small step for us. Start small and step out boldly. Small farms, and even small gardens are going to save the world from starvation. Big government in cahoots with Big Ag has given us Fake Food System Models to scare and threaten us, take our money and steal our health.
Just like the fake numbers we get from just about every institution today, do read the above article to see how hoodwinked we’ve been. It’s just sickening.
In World War II there were Victory Gardens everywhere. People grew their own vegetables and fruits so that farm production could feed the troops. We can do this. Garden science has come a long way. Urban farming is a large and growing movement.
Gardeners in suburbia have turned their grass into raised beds. You would be amazed at how much food you can grow over a year in a small plot. Container gardening has blossomed, too. Even in apartments, you can grow all kinds of crops on a balcony. Gardening year-round in cold climates has also come a long way.
Here’s a great video about a family in California who grow annually 6,000 pounds of food on 1/20th of an acre. They even have chickens and little goats.
Here’s their website. They are teaching others the way to food freedom.
Four Season Farm with Eliot Coleman (great for year-round gardening in cold climates)
Charles Dowding and No Dig Gardening (great Youtube Channel)
The Plummery in Australia (a lot of good advice for new gardeners):
Here is a balcony garden in Germany. Lovely:
There is a giant mountain of books, videos, blogs, podcasts and even local gardening clubs that can help us toward food freedom. Hmmm…Food Freedom. Sounds like a great forum topic.
At any rate, the way to beat the Giants is to be small. Lots and lots and lots of small gardens producing big. Seek out and support local food producers, many of whom live hand-to-mouth raising produce, meat, eggs and other products in a Good Steward way.
The more we can grow, make and produce, the less we have to rely on the Giants. We can defeat the globalists and their communist henchmen one garden plot at a time.
Let me begin by thanking everybody who helped test out the forum, including a couple of “new” posters. I want to emphasize that the forum is going to be designed to bring more people to the discussion, which is basically designed to be like Twitter or Gab – talk about whatever.
I want to THANK Tonawanda for pushing this aspect IMMEDIATELY, because I want the forum to be a real forum. Patriots talking about WHATEVER. We will likely create subfora which may ask for either HIGHER levels of civility, or allow for LOWER levels of civility – basically being “The U Tree“, only not under the control of WordPressDotCom. We will leave The U Tree where it is, as a kind of lifeboat in case this whole site goes down, but otherwise, I want to move the “get a room” stuff back to this site – just in a back room.
Likewise, thank you to Bfly for BRINGING HOME THE BACON.
Our friend rayzorback also gets it. ANYTHING.
NOW – let’s get down to BUSINESS.
I want to start making this sucker more like what it’s supposed to be – to get it OUT of beta test mode – very quickly.
We have different formats – the default is THREADED, which is much like on our blog, with the wpDiscuz commenting system.
Threaded has INDENTATION of REPLIES to REPLIES.
Threaded ALSO seems to be the most popular of the formats:
Now that is SOMEWHAT not fair, because I put up a threaded forum first, and people gravitated to it. HOWEVER, I put up the other three formats fairly quickly, and they DID draw replies, but NOT new topics (or “posts” in some parlance), as the THREADED format did.
Based on my observations, the big hit was conservative cultural discussion using the threaded format.
The threaded format simply drew MORE participation.
The next most popular was PROBABLY the Simplified layout. This layout depends heavily on QUOTING. It’s linear with embedded quotes that refer back to prior replies. This is an older but very common style of layout.
The Extended layout is pretty much the same as simplified, only LOOOONGER. It also depends on quoting.
Finally, there is the Q&A layout, which is a bit like Reddit, and a bit like technical “questions answered” forums.
This one is weird and confusing, yet has strange charms. It’s easier to show you how it works. The most important principles are as follows.
(1) The title asks a question, which is fleshed out in a top-level “reply” which can be commented upon.
(2) Responses to the title question are also top-level “replies”, which are called “Answers”, which have changeable titles, and can be upvoted or downvoted, affecting their display order.
(3) All top-level replies, both the fleshed-out question AND the “answers”, can draw COMMENTS, which are next-level replies, to which one CANNOT reply or “like”.
NOW – with that understanding in mind, observe FOUR disjoint snippets from a single Q&A session, which illustrate all these features and limitations.
1
2
3
4
Now, there seems to be some love for the Q&A format, despite its weird limitations. But there is also a lot of HATE.
We are almost led to the idea – well – can we have MULTIPLE layouts?
The answer is technically YES. However, there are RISKS in breaking up the forum too much. But let’s set those risks aside, and assume we are smart and don’t succumb to the risks – that we can avoid them. Let’s assume we “break things up smartly”. The next question is – HOW can we do this?
What is technically possible in terms of mixing styles?
There IS some “hybridization” possible, where we BLEND into a single style. It is complicated and probably won’t be done right away. This involves taking features from one style and grafting them into others. The software is designed to allow this, but it’s not simple, and it’s LIMITED. Small features, yes. Big ones – only if possible, and probably not even THAT.
So let’s set THAT aside. What is still possible in terms of multiple styles?
It turns out that EVERY FORUM AND SUB-FORUMS of that forum must have the same style. In other words, if I set up a forum, any forums “within it” or “below it” must be of the same style. Basically, anything in a hierarchy obeys the layout above it.
I can have MULTIPLE forums, but whatever layout is used in the top-level forum, carries down to ALL subforums.
Thus, if we want a “Q&A” forum like on technical sites, where answers “compete”, which can also be viewed as a reddit-style forum, where trendy consensus moves to the top, then that forum has to be DISTINCT from the main “threaded” or “simplified” forum, which is more likely to be the consensus forum layout. Likewise, if we want BOTH threaded and (simplified and/or extended) forums, then they ALL have to be separate, parallel, forums.
NOW your are ready to see what we have – FOUR parallel top-level TEST forums.
This will all get modified when I take the FORUM (as a whole) out of “beta test” into production. I may keep these old forums and their contents for historical purposes, or change them into new ones, but this is where it starts.
OK – here is an update on the new site. I’m putting it here ON the new site, so people can start getting used to commenting over here. I have decided to go for SMOOTHNESS OF TRANSITION rather than CLEAN FAST BREAK. PATIENCE. It’s a virtue. Most of the posts transferred. We only have about …
I am planning to create a “forum extension” to this site, which will allow for growth and “full free speech zones”, without significantly changing the nature of THIS site. I decided AGAINST simply bringing The U Tree over to Epik. I don’t really feel like that site has much of a future. I don’t feel …
I have given the authors MODERATOR status on the FORUM so that they can help me build. All registered subscribers have REGISTERED status. This is somewhat how most forums work – people have to register to start threads.
Don’t worry – we’ll work through it.
ANYWAY, let’s have fun and start playing with the forum and building stuff. I encourage people to tinker with the forum and comment here. I will make adjustments and add organization as needed.
Welcome to Wolf’s Pub, where Wokeness comes to die! Let us get out the sharp knives of intellect and just plain common sense, and stab it to death. Then we can sit back and enjoy a drink.
First, a fantastic Heritage Foundation Panel that gives the foundation of Wokeness and its genesis in Marxism. Give it your time, if you can. Very informative. Know your enemy, right?
Here’s the situation as we know it:
JOE BIDEN DIDN’T WIN.
He cheated his way into the White House and is not the real President.
Donald Trump is our President. Let us drink to President Donald John Trump with a glass of tea.
The bartenders happen to have made a batch of Backyard Iced Tea, and glasses of it are being passed out this moment at the bar. There are numerous recipes for it, but this one beckoned them:
Here’s a recipe for Backyard Sweet Tea, and here’s a recipe for making perfect iced tea (several ways with lots of additions if you want).
Wreck the Reset
The bottom line is the election of Donald Trump in 2016 (and 2020) messed with the Great Reset (is that not the most banal slogan you’ve ever heard?), the Green New Deal (another winner), and other assorted Cabal plans in a BIG WAY. So much so that they have been forced into showing us their stinking rotten underbelly…basically a small group of power-crazed wannabe gods. Small group being the operative words.
Their plans are doomed to fail. How many times in history does this have to happen before the megalomaniacs figure out that centralization of power is a losing proposition? The natural world is not organically organized in such a way. It will never be organized in such a way (“…until He comes whose right it is…”.)
Hence man, who is a part of nature, will never be permanently organized in such a way, either. There will always be clans, tribes, cities, nations and neighborhoods. No matter what techno ghetto they put us in; no matter what economic stranglehold they throttle us with; no matter what medical controls they put on us; and no matter what centralized political system they impose on us, it will fail.
People have a way of overcoming the machinations of tyrants. History is on our side. I am speaking of that pivotal moment in History when the Son of God overcame the world.
Their Black Swan event will be a thing to behold, I have no doubt.
The Cabal fancies themselves to be higher beings who are destined to reign over a greatly-reduced population of peons who serve their every whim, and who can be used in any way they please. I’ve read they greatly desire to attain physical immortality. Oh, I think the Second Death may have them no matter how long they cling to biological life.
These crazies concocted a web of plans to implement their desires: The Great Reset, the Green New Deal (see Dark, Cold Years are Coming, So You’d Better Get Ready), Agenda 21, Critical Race Theory, Marxist groups like BLM, the Covid Plandemic, and so on. But they have been flushed out in the open, and I suspect this exposure was part of a plan all along.
House Rules
One of the articles below uses this image:
This! Stay united, my friends! We can disagree, but we must remain united. We can put aside our differences and fight to win against our common enemy. Go here for Wolf’s rules. And if you feel the need to brawl, the bouncers will personally conduct you to the Utree, where we can all meet in case of need, too.
UNITE AND CONQUER.
Let us keep our skin thick and our heart fleshy, and we shall dwell together in unity.
WE HAVE IT ALL
The truth about the Wuhan Virus—that it did indeed originate in the lab in Wuhan, and that it appears to have Gain of Function (human engineering), is now hitting the mainstream media (AKA Fake News). They can’t deny it any longer.
Dr. Fauci is tap dancing his way to infamy. One can see the cracks in the Big Lie about the Wuhan-Fauci Virus. A recent interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes was just precious. “The sun is beginning to set on Dr. Saint Tony Fauci,” according to Steve Bannon.
“As to whether SARS-CoV-2 was genetically engineered, it is here where Dr. Fauci enters this dangerous picture: In 2017, without sufficient warning to the Trump White House, Dr, Fauci and his NIH colleague Dr. Francis Collins re-authorized the use of so-called gain-of-function research inside China’s Wuhan Lab.
Gain-of-function is a genetic engineering tool that improves the ability of a virus to cause disease. In pushing for gain-of-function, Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins unilaterally overturned a 2014 decision by the Obama White House to restrict such experiments because of their inherent dangers.
In fact, SARS-CoV-2 exhibits several highly unusual functional characteristics that suggest the virus has been genetically engineered. For example, unlike SARS-CoV-1 and most other viruses, SARS-CoV-2 is characterized by a high degree of “asymptomatic spread.” This makes the virus far more contagious — and therefore far more deadly.
The high degree of asymmetric spread — along with the rapid and deadly mutations of the virus we are now observing — suggest the possibility of a weaponized virus. Here, the U.S. State Department has revealed that the Wuhan Lab has engaged in research on behalf of the People’s Liberation Army since 2017 — the same year Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins approved gain-of-function research in Wuhan.
The last piece of this “Fauci as the Father of the Pandemic” puzzle is this: Dr. Fauci’s NIH funneled American taxpayer dollars — some $7 million — into the Wuhan Lab through a shadowy figure named Peter Dasak. Mr. Dasak, himself, bragged about genetically engineering viruses at the Wuhan Lab prior to the pandemic.”
LINKS GALORE
Excuse my wordiness and excess of links today, but so much seemed important. Pick and choose!
“Even Amazon’s internal documents exposed that the company rates their stores using a “diversity index,” and determined the threat of unionization is “higher” at stores with “lower diversity.” This is what the WOKE movement is all about — DIVIDE & CONQUER! Julius Caesar was able to conquer Gaul despite being outnumbered more than 10 to 1 because the Gauls never united until it was too late. Even in the final battle during September 52 BC, Julius Caesar sealed his fate as a legendary military commander at the Battle of Alesia where his army of 50,000 Romans defeated 200,000 Gauls in what is now modern-day Burgundy, France. The Celtic tribes were never united. Caesar defeated the Belgae tribes as well as the Helvetia. Had they all united, Caesar surely would not have conquered Europe. Hence, keep your opponents divided and you will win. This is the entire object of the woke movement — divide and created hatred between the groups.”
Here’s a piece of pure propaganda from the Houston Chronicle. Those redneck Trump voters just won’t get in line for the pricks. Of course the article needed numerous writers to author it. Good Lord, I’m so embarrassed for my former profession.
Do read the above. I thought I would pull a quote out of it, but every paragraph has something important to say. Wait until you get to the eugenics part…
Here is a doctor’s website that has information about Gain of Function with the Wuhan/Fauci Virus. Fleming Method.
“Then there is woke “science,” most visible these days in the arenas of response to the Covid-19 virus and of climate change. Here the principles are a little different. In woke “science” there is no falsifiable hypothesis. In place of that, we have the official orthodox consensus view. The official orthodox consensus view has been arrived at by all the smartest people, because it just seems like it must be right. The official orthodox consensus view must not be contradicted, particularly by the little people like you. Based on the official orthodox consensus view, those in power can take away all your freedom (Covid) and/or transform the entire economy (climate). After all, it’s the “science.”
“It’s highly destructive to “teach” Americans to assume that their coworkers and neighbors harbor racial biases. These studies finding “biases” are the product of pandering and wishful thinking by researchers who understand that studies “confirming” the narrative will lead to fame and increased funding. These flawed studies and the propaganda that grows out of them stoke mistrust and tribalism. Academia has become a noxious echo chamber.
Ironically, the continued reliance on flawed studies shows exactly the opposite of what these researchers wish to prove: America is not a racist country.”
“Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, one of America’s most prominent teaching hospitals, plans on offering “preferential care based on race” and “race explicit interventions” as part of its new “antiracist agenda for medicine.” Such a program uses a “reparations framework” to allocate medical resources…
How ironic that the vision of the Mass General Brigham health system is dedication to delivering medical care that is, among other things, “equitable.” Nothing promotes equity like a racist concept of “preferential care based on race.”
CULTURAL APPROPRIATION? NOPE. IT’S ONLY BAD IF WHITE PEOPLE HAVE BLONDE HAIR.
Here’s several provocative articles from Taki’s Magazine, which is delightfully NOT PC:
We all know why Wal-Mart, aka China-Mart, is fence-riding between its manufacturing operations in Communist China and American consumers. The multi-nationals are really all in with the CCP because the CCP uses obscenely cheap laborers (as in slave cheap) in its factories to produce products to fill their monopolistic stores. They make money off the backs of enslaved people.
That is the stark truth.
US Wal-Mart workers are kings and princes compared to Chinese workers and Wal-Mart would rather fill its stores with cheap crap from Chinese workers than pay US workers to make quality items or buy quality made goods from the USA.
Ever notice how they make a pretense of having items made in the USA? They put those in the aisles or on the endcaps, but they are few and far between.
It is very difficult to avoid shopping at Wal-Mart. Not only did they kill off the mom-and-pops years ago, but they are often the only game around for small towns and people of few means.
That Zoom call the other day, in which 100 woke corporations discussed opposing election reform, shows how deeply hypocritical these companies are. They don’t give a rat’s ass about slave workers in China, or even about the working poor here. They are all about the bottom line: making a buck no matter who it exploits.
Fair elections would put people in office who are not in the pockets of huge corporations, and would make laws to advance the good of Americans, not the CCP or amoral corporations.
Speaking of China’s manufacturing hegemony, have you heard about Equity for Africa? Imagine investing in business ventures with the countries of Africa! Imagine what kind of competition that would make for China’s manufacturing dominance?
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo kicked off the Equity for Africa Summit at Liberty University a few days ago. From his keynote speech:
“The faith-based forum is assembling major government, business, and faith leaders from America and Africa to share visions of making Africa a more prosperous, secure, and flourishing continent. (Go to the event website to watch the livestream and view panel discussions and participants.)
“Every African, and indeed every human, wants the same basic things,” Pompeo said in his address from Liberty University’s campus on Tuesday night.
“They want freedom and the ability to take care of their families, and they all understand that there’s very little that is more noble than the dignity that comes with a job and opportunity to work and to deliver on behalf of their families and community. And Africans who get the opportunity to do so are obviously better, and their nation more prosperous and secure.”
Last, but not least, here is Democrat Naomi Wolf with a MUST WATCH 15-minute video about the deadly danger of vaccine passports. This is a video that you can send to all your liberal friends. It is a red pill with a pink tint…easy on the Woke Among Us. Naomi was also on War Room Pandemic Wednesday and you can see that here.
Naomi is extremely concerned, even to the point of fright. Those of us who are Christians and other like-minded courageous friends, must not succumb to fear. We will overcome. Praise God and pass the Backyard Iced Tea. Amen!
