“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.

This FOURTH OF JULY 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 MAGAKAG! KMAG world (KMAG being a bit of both).
You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on.
Free Speech is practiced here. ENJOY IT. Use it or lose it.
Keep it SOMEWHAT civil. They tried to FORCE fake Orwellian civility on us. In response, we CHOOSE true civility to defend our precious FREEDOM from THEM.
Our rules began with the civility of the Old Treehouse, later to become the Wolverinian Empire, and one might say that we have RESTORED THE OLD REPUBLIC – the early high-interaction model of the Treehouse – except of course that Q discussion is not only allowed but encouraged, and speech is considerably freer in other ways. Please feel free to argue and disagree with the board owner, as nicely as possible.
Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here in the January 1st open thread. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven.
And what do we want to be able to tell our VSG?
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU!
AND WHAT TIME IS IT?
TIME TO….
DRAIN THE SWAMP
Our movement
Is about replacing
A failed
And CORRUPT
Political establishment
With a new government controlled
By you, the American People.
Candidate Donald J. Trump
Also remember Wheatie’s Rules:
No food fights.

A Look at Fourth of July at the White House, Past and Present
Well worth a visit for the EXCELLENT slideshow which puts the absolute LIE to the contention that President Trump’s Salute to America is in any way a vanity project.
Just take a look at WHICH past Presidents of the United States did this before. (You got a TINY HINT of JUST THE BEGINNING at the very top with TEDDY ROOSEVELT.)
FAKE NEWS IS FAKE.
UNMASKING TRUMP IS UNMASKING.
And yes, our LION isn’t ALONE!
Look VERY CLOSELY and you may see a HONEY BADGER!
NO! Not THAT ONE! THIS ONE!!!
Yes, our HONEY BADGER has a message for us that I used for the header!
SO – without further ado, I am now honored to post THIS JULY 4th OPEN THREAD, in which WE THE PEOPLE provide THE NEWS.
This WE LOVE OUR FLAG WEDNESDAY 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 MAGAKAG! KMAG world (KMAG being a bit of both).

BETSY ROSS FLAG
Forget about Nike! Thanks to their silly flag flap, I’m excited about the Betsy Ross Flag!
The “circle” of 13 stars is actually a “tridecagon”, or a “triskaidecagon”, or a 13-gon.
Here is how you make one, shown as an animated GIF image:

Yes, it’s Monday…again.
But it’s okay! We’ll get through it.
Free Speech is practiced here at the Q Tree. In fact, our host Wolfmoon encourages us to use it…and Enjoy it. “Use it or lose it”, he tells us.
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 in the January 1st open thread. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from Audiomachine, titled ‘Godspeed’:
Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is President Trump outside of the White House, giving a little wave with his right hand. He is grinning with his head tilted slightly to the right. It is a bright, sunny day, so he is squinting a little. Second Image: Is a moving image, a gif, of a polar bear with his head and shoulders down on the ice. He is pushing forward with his hind legs. He looks tired…but is pushing himself forward, even with his front half down on the ice. Third Image: Is another moving image, a gif, of a dog laying down on a carpeted floor. His head is on the floor and he is looking forward with a patient look on his face, as an endless stream of kittens runs past his head. Fourth Image: President Trump is standing on the stairway outside the door of Air Force One. It is night time and the lights shining on him create a shadow of him on the aircraft door that looks like the head of an Eagle.
This Shining Light Saturday 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 KMAG world.
Come on in and get comfy:

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from Twelve Titans Music, titled ‘Bound By Purpose’:
Visual Descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Top Image: Is a gigantic Tree reaching up into white fluffy clouds. Rays of the sun are emerging through the clouds and are streaming through the Tree’s leafy canopy and massive branches. There are wisps of clouds around the lower sections of the Tree’s giant trunk. Second Image: Is a view of a winding stone path surrounded on each side by a thick growth of a variety of colorful flowers. The path leads to an arched doorway with double doors. There is an ornate metal gate as an outer cover for the doorway. More flowers and lush green ivy completely surround the doorway on all sides. Third Image: Is a rounded open room-sized viewing deck, looking out over tree tops. There is a cushioned S-shaped seating console in the center of the room, with lots of throw pillows. Round cushioned ottomans are positioned against it, fitting into the concave sections of it’s S-shape. Towards the outer edge of the deck is a small fire pit in the center of a round cushioned bench. There is free-form railing around the outer edge of the deck. Fourth Image: President Trump is sitting at his desk in the oval office, reading some papers. Sunlight is streaming in from one of the windows behind him, illuminating both him and the papers he is holding. An aide is standing beside the desk, and looks like he is waiting for President Trump to read what he is looking at.
Okay, folks. Think of this as recon #101. We’re scoping our opponents, looking for good memes for the 2020 election season. Yes, in order to be informed citizens, we have to watch the debates. We KNOW the press takes comments out of context, on the left and on the right——– so let’s be accurate, at least.
And there’s the chance our President will be tweeting comments to keep life interesting. Keep in mind, however, he leaves for the G20 at 1:00pm today and might be over the Pacific or otherwise engaged.
Hey Treepers, do us all a favor while you are here. If you have info about a particular Dem Candidate, please drop the info into the thread below. We can then come back to this thread as a reference.
Should be a fun evening. No throwing television sets into the driveway! Put on your happy face and come to the party!
This WE WILL WIN AND WE WILL KEEP WINNING WEDNESDAY 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 MAGAKAG! KMAG world (KMAG being a bit of both).

Tonight’s message is FIRST THE BAD, THEN THE GOOD.
The BAD:
Apple just threatened Parler, telling Parler CEO John Matze that Parler had to censor “certain individuals” or be banned from the app store.
Do the math. They are talking about Alex Jones and Laura Loomer. AMONG OTHERS.
I did not react “nicely” to this.
If you are not SERIOUSLY considering ditching your @Apple products, you should. APPLE wanted @parler_app to BAN certain individuals.
This is NAZI behavior. This is SOVIET behavior. SURVIVORS told me about this stuff.
I’m not quite sure how this changes my plans, because I have numerous contingency plans for our network, and they orbit fairly close to Gab and Epik in places. But NOW….
Well – CRISIS may have become OPPORTUNITY.
I just need to think about it. We need to SEE what becomes of Gab with this change.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from Audiomachine, titled ‘Breath and Life’:
Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is President Trump in the oval office, with an amused look on his face. We don’t know who he was looking at when the photo was taken, but I get the impression that he didn’t think much of them. Second Image: Is a moving image, a gif, of a polar bear with his head and shoulders down on the ice. He is pushing forward with his hind legs. He looks tired…but is pushing himself forward, even with his front half down on the ice. Third Image: Is a cup of coffee with a frothy layer of bubbles on the surface of the coffee. Two large bubbles resemble eyes and an even larger bubble resembles an open mouth. It is a moving image and one eye winks at us while the mouth closes a little. Fourth Image: President Trump is having to endure both the press and the insufferable Justine Trudeau…at the same time. He has an exasperated look on his face, like he can’t wait for the event to be over.
Welcome! The door is open, come on up and get comfy.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this mix from Fearless Motivation of two tracks, titled ‘Face Your Demons’ and ‘Learn From Your Haters’:
Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is a natural-looking doorway into the side of a giant Tree with a foot bridge leading up to it. Just inside the doorway is a stairway leading upward. Branches form the railings on the foot bridge and there is dense leafy vegetation on either side. A thick growth of ivy and moss nearly covers the bark of the Tree. Second Image: Is an open-sided room with a view of the treetops. There are over-stuffed couches covered in throw pillows, with lots of lanterns placed around giving off a soft glow. The ceiling is supported by gnarly tree trunks and the railing along the open side is made up of bark-covered branches. Third Image: Is a picture of President Trump, waving from just outside Air Force One. He is squinting from the bright outdoor light and has a solemn look on his face.

Always be able to tell our VSG this POWER STATEMENT in TRUTH:
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU!
AND WHAT TIME IS IT?
TIME TO….
DRAIN THE SWAMP
Our movement
Is about replacing
A failed
And CORRUPT
Political establishment
With a new government controlled
By you, the American People.
Candidate Donald J. Trump
Also remember Wheatie’s Rules:
No food fights.

If the tech giants want to censor political speech & advance a political viewpoint, fine. But then they should be treated like any other publisher
We need to move the #Section230 debate into the 21st century. Question is no longer how to encourage an infant industry. Question is whether the industry’s biggest, monopoly platforms can use 230 to stifle competition, censor speech, and invade privacy
This guy totally gets it. Silicon Valley is now a COMMUNIST THUG OPERATION, operating out of ENEMY TERRITORY in CHINA-OCCUPIED CALIFORNIA.
There was a point in time when people realized we needed to go after Section 230. I remember posting quite a bit about it. THAT was when we finally had some kind of idea WHERE to attack the beast. But BEFORE THAT, we merely recognized that something was WRONG with Silicon Valley, and they would have to be ORDERED not to censor – possibly even BROKEN UP.
Steve Bannon was the first on populism’s side to prominently suggest this. What was NOT obvious THEN, but is extremely obvious NOW, is that the left’s MASSIVE attacks against Steve Bannon began IMMEDIATELY AFTER he began talking “anti-trust” against Silicon Valley.
Now – after talking to Tonawanda today, I realize COMPLETELY how socialism in general, and Silicon Valley in particular, snuff out ideas that they don’t like – by a very stealthy campaign to keep the discussion level of that item below some critical value that THEY UNDERSTAND.
SO – now that I understand how Google and YouTube are actually run by RED DIAPER SOCIALIST THUGS – certain things make sense – that these organizations might “farm out” the silencing of viewpoints they don’t particularly want to reach whatever critical value they must not reach. And we all know that OUTSOURCING is actually a form of denial of “how it got done”. When “methods” have to be used – why – just outsource! Outsourcing – oddly enough – turns out to be a form of the MAMET PRINCIPLE – “pretending not to know”.
On July 30, 2017, I made the unknowingly risky decision to publish a piece SUPPORTING Steve Bannon’s “radical” and “unthinkable” idea of reining in Silicon Valley censorship. It was based on the idea that SOME kind of “information anti-trust” was fully in line with Trump’s form of populism – that this was almost DESTINY for the MAGA movement.
It was NOT HARD for me to figure out that, after ALL the left-provoking things I’ve risked over the Obama years, the FIRST EVER STAKING OUT of my lowly abode JUST MIGHT HAVE BEEN CONNECTED to that little article, and the surprisingly warm reception it got. (Don’t trust the numbers on Twitter – more on that later.)
The intimidation actually got way worse, as in “classic thug type”, but there is no way that I, personally, can positively connect it to Silicon Valley. But I simply assume that the threat came from there. I stepped on SOMEBODY’S hedge fund.
I should note that whatever I or others did in response, it ended the problem. For a while.
Great Awakening, baby. Think they don’t use violence? Don’t think they use threats? Think again. The bogus staged Charlottesville incident (August 11-12) and the Las Vegas Massacre (October 1) followed shortly after this.
Followed – thankfully – by the firing of Treasonous McCabe and the deployment of QAnon, due to – in my opinion – militarily significant actions by the communists in conjunction with a politically motivated COUP ATTEMPT using the FBI and the Soviet American media.
Vegas was the last straw for “puttin’ up with the coup”. And I’m very glad people did what was needed after that, to end that bullshit.
Go on from there, to see how I was “awakened” to censorship at Twitter. This is actually a lot of fun to read, because in it, I am SPECULATING WILDLY about all sorts of stuff that we now know was not just true, but RIDICULOUSLY TRUE. Oh, man, that was fun.
From there, I eventually got on the “230” bus, almost a year later. Here is a nice thread:
The way to end social media censorship is to modify 47 U.S. Code § 230 (c) (1) (A) which is used to censor us.
The mod is that all PROVIDERS between any creator and any user must provide legal speech with an uninfringed FREE SPEECH PATH between the two.https://t.co/wB9XWRXN9V
Clearly, BANNON’S idea of actually CHALLENGING Silcon Valley took hold. Red Diaper Sergey and Google pulled back from China to Communist California, and – well – now we can see that….
IT TAKES A VILLAGE OF PATRIOTS ON THE INTERNET TO SPREAD THE WORD TO EVERY OTHER VILLAGE OF PATRIOTS IN REAL LIFE.
Heck – I may just have a Sam Adams.
And ponder the beauty of my new favorite composite number, 230.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from Fearless Motivation, titled: ‘Never Give Up’:
Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: A giant image of President Trump is looming up over the edge of a rocky cliff. He is grinning and pointing his finger at a small James Comey, who is standing on the cliff. There is blue sky and ocean waves in the background. Second Image: Is a moving image, a gif, of a polar bear with his head and shoulders down on the ice. He is pushing forward with his hind legs. He looks tired…but is pushing himself forward, even with his front half down on the ice. Third Image: Is a photo of First Lady Melania and President Trump. Melania is smiling and looking over to the side. President Trump is grinning and looking straight at us, and is giving us a thumbs up. Fourth Image: President Trump is standing in front of a window in the Oval Office, looking out at the grounds. The view is of his back. His elbows are bent, with his forearms in front of him, perhaps they are crossed…or he is holding something.
