Yes, it’s Monday…again:
But it’s okay! We’ll get through it. We’ve got the good stuff:
And our President is on a road trip to LOL-don where he will be hob-knobbing with the Royals…who will no doubt, be trying to intimidate him with their opulent digs and pageantry.
But our President is no stranger to opulence…he bought his own, years ago. So he will not be intimidated:

Meanwhile, our President has left an energized Honey Badger on duty here at home:

Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is an aerial view of the River Thames in London. It features the ‘London Eye’ on one side of the river and the Big Ben clock tower on the other side. The ‘London Eye’ is the enormous Ferris wheel that was built in 1999…they call it an “observation wheel”. In this photo, the support structure that connects to the center of the wheel, makes it look like a giant letter ‘Q’. 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: The Good Stuff…is an image of a cup of coffee, held by a man’s hand. On the surface of the coffee is a capital ‘Q’, floating in the cream on top. A small pitcher of cream is above the coffee cup, pouring additional cream into it. Fourth Image: Under the text about how “he bought his own” opulence, is an image of a younger President Trump. He is standing in an ornate and very opulent room at his Mar A Lago estate, which rivals the best castles in Europe. He is holding a golf club at each end, at arms length across the top of his legs…and has an amused look on his face. Fifth Image: Is a picture of President Trump standing on the landing of a gangway pushed up to the door of Air Force One. He is waving and has a solemn look on his face. Sixth Image: Is a group photo of the British Royal Family. They are on a balcony, looking skyward…with goofy looks on some of their faces, especially Prince Charles. The one missing is Nasty Meghan Markel. Bottom Image: Is a picture of President Trump and Attorney General Barr. They are in mid-stride, walking down the side of a room at the White House that has a chandelier. President Trump is grinning. General Barr has a serious look on his face and has blue energy streams crackling around on his body, as though he is “crackling with electricity”. There is a blue energy glow coming from President Trump’s eyes, as well.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from DTD Music, titled ‘Rise Into Heaven’:
Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is a gigantic Tree, sitting on a hill in the middle of a group of buildings and homes. 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 a graphic of President Trump, giving a thumbs up with his right hand. The words, “Where We Go One”, are above his head…and the words, “We Go All”, are below his image.

I’m very happy that our VSGPOTUS got to spend this time in Japan. Very few countries BROADEN THE MIND like Japan. Taking part in this changing of the guard in the Japanese royal family is truly historic – a great honor and I’m sure a great blessing for both nations.
This is exemplary of the positive future that can be had in a world with RESPONSIBLE NATIONS learning to get along with each other, while sticking up for the good of their own peoples!
With all that said, however, it’s still REALLY GOOD to have our VSG back home.
For LOTS of reasons!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
And what’s even better – all the GREAT NEWS while President Trump was away, means he can just hit the ground running.
I was actually sticking up for Sleepy Joe Biden while on foreign soil. Kim Jong Un called him a “low IQ idiot,” and many other things, whereas I related the quote of Chairman Kim as a much softer “low IQ individual.” Who could possibly be upset with that?
I’d like to take a moment and thank OUR FLEP for those great news roundups. These things are a true service to MAGA, and I’m quite proud that we have such REAL NEWS here.
THREE CHEERS FOR FLEP!
So – now it’s time to roll up our sleeves, FOLD OUR ARMS, and get to work on those nasty FINAL PROBLEMS!
Note from Wolf:This post, under a different title that I don’t remember, went up last night, but was taken down by the author due to a misunderstanding between Authors. It went into the TRASH, where it did not belong, and then went into DRAFTS, where it cannot get the attention that it deserves NOW.
Thus, I take a rare BOARD OWNER prerogative to post it NOW.
It is my habit, at the Memorial Day parade I always attend, to RESCUE and BRING HOME those tiny, cheap American flags that get dropped on the ground for one reason or another. Sometimes broken, sometimes forgotten, sometimes dropped by a baby or stolen by a happy dog. It doesn’t matter why. I pick them up, bring them home, and THOSE FLAGS take the place of honor as my most important flags for the coming year.
If you think that’s a message, then I hope you read this post. Treat any imperfections as the ones found in Navajo rugs – proof of authenticity, and recognition of the Creator.

When I was a young boy my father, who was an aviation enthusiast, would take me to airshows, and he passed his passion on to me. As far back as I can remember I have loved ANYTHING to do with flight. I would spend hours and days gluing together Revell model airplanes that I bought with money I made mowing lawns and doing chores, painstakingly painting them as accurately as I could using pictures from magazines and books, then hang them from the ceiling in my bedroom. At night after I went to bed, I would stare up at them and imagine myself being one of the pilots of these awesome machines.
Back in those days, the new heros of flight were the Mercury and Apollo astronauts…but they themselves came from the ranks of men who willingly strapped themselves into several tons of finely machined metal and dared to challenge the harsh and unforgiving ethers above the earth.
For me, both then and now, this was where GIANTS tread.
Men of such courage, ability, fortitude, and character that today their feats are FAR too many to list here, their accomplishments and sacrifices SO IMPOSSIBLY GREAT…so well known….worldwide….that even a shmuck like me is granted some of the respect THEY earned…..simply because I, too, am a pilot.
Bullshit. I am not even a pimple, ON A pimple, on such men’s behinds. Reread that.
It is not an exaggeration to say that most of today’s federal aviation regulations are written in blood. Hard lessons learned and iron-clad rules set in place from tragic circumstances that cost people their lives….and most of those came from the blood of military pilots and test pilots. For one thing, you must remember that for most of avaiation history aircraft design was done BY HAND…there were no computer models/modeling to test equipment before it was tried out for the first time in actual flight….all too often at the cost of a courageous man’s life. Back in those days, HALF of all US test pilots lost their lives. 50% of them!
Then, too, there were the combat pilots…especially those of the 40’s through the 60’s. This was the time when piston-driven aircraft had reached the limit of that kind’s performance, followed by the subsequent birth of turbine engines (jets) that would rocket man beyond the speed of sound. Try as I might, I cannot possibly convey to you how dangerous and challenging these times were for the young men who had the fortitude, courage and ability to face the odds and learn how to push the edge of a high performance aircraft’s envelope…to do that IN COMBAT…and try to survive.
However, there is one statistic that might give you some idea, some inkling, of how dangerous it was in those days.
Think of all the kinds of combat taking place in WWII. Sailors, marines, army. Submarines, for example, where one small breach of the hull at depth would send the vessel and all aboard into the crushing pressure of the deep. Or how about soldiers and marines in landing craft, daring to land on a beach while facing a hail of enemy gun fire and artillery as they rushed through the open to try and find some kind of cover and survive. Brave, courageous men….all of them!
That said, of all the different types of armed combat during WWII, which one was the most dangerous for the US serviceman….the one with the greatest casualties out of them all?
Was it the virtually fearless US marines landing on islands across the pacific, facing the fanatical Japanese? How about our troops going up against the Nazis in places like Bastogne? Or the aforementioned submariner forces in the Atlantic and Pacific?
Nope.
The single most dangerous combat job during WWII was to be a crew member of the US 8th Army Air Corps…the Mighty 8th…flying daylight combat missions over occupied Europe. Of ALL combat units of ALL types and service branches during WWII, the Mighty 8th suffered the highest casualty rates of the entire war.
In fact, it was SO bad…so incredibly dangerous….so UNLIKELY for someone to survive….that the US high command instituted….for the very first (but not the last) time….a maximum number of combat missions to be flown before a crew member was deemed to have fulfilled his wartime service obligation and get sent home.
The magic number? 25 combat missions.
Just 25.
Sounds easy, eh? Well, statistically speaking, every single person who stepped into an Mighty 8th airplane and flew combat missions over occupied Europe would get killed by the 13th mission, if not sooner. So they took that number and doubled it to 25, with the belief that if you could survive 25 missions, you earned the right to be honorably discharged and sent home.
And just to drive the point home…no other military occupation across all branches of service was afforded this priviledge. They called it “The Mighty 8th”, but in reality it was the Bloody 8th.
WATCH….
At 25,000 feet….5 miles above the earth….the altitude most World War II bomber missions were flown….air temperature ranges from -30° to -45°F. Modern aircraft have sealed cabins and heaters to protect pilots and passengers from wind blast and cold air. Not the crews of WWII. Pressurized cabins hadn’t been invented yet, and it wasn’t until the development of the B-29 (of “Enola Gay” fame) that bombers had such a luxury.
If the enemy fire and flak didn’t get you, the lack of oxygen and/or cold air could….and all too often did.
Have a look at this chart…these guys were regularly flying in the dark blue and purple parts at the right side. Note the amount of time it takes for exposed flesh to suffer frostbite.
Moreover, where can you take cover in a thin aluminum skinned aircraft? A: you couldn’t.
These planes had no armor…THAT was too heavy…and that weight was needed for the bombs and defensive machine guns. There were no foxholes or brick walls or trees to hide behind. No, you were stuck there, with your proverbial ass hanging out in the breeze, hoping it didn’t get shot off…that you could make your 25 missions in one piece and go home.
Here…have a look…this is not too far off from what it was like. See if you can count ALL the dangers present in this short clip…
Mind shattering.
My point is simply this.
This weekend we historically honor those who have lost their lives in service to our country. And I wanted to give you a taste of the dangers some of them faced and all too often fell prey to.
They did it for us, the next generations to come. They did it because they loved America, for the deepest and most cherished hopes they had for this country, and all this country has historically stood for.
It is for such heros….who fought and died to establish, protect, and grow our nation…that we honor and remember their sacrifices this weekend.
And some do it every day, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
No. Matter. What.
2 of 4: But America's Regiment endured. They found low ground and held fast through the wind and the rain. Some had to be to ordered to stand down from planting flags, still determined to continue to #HonorTheFallen. pic.twitter.com/zt8EN3twh4
4 of 4: As thunder shook the ground & rains washed down, the Tomb Sentinel pierced through the elements w/breath-taking precision. He knelt & placed the flags in honor of the Unknowns. Humans have their limits, but @USArmyOldGuard has yet to meet theirs. #KnowYourMilpic.twitter.com/t1VA3c8dDd
Today, some of America’s finest young warriors have emerged to carry forward the legacy of the men and women who came before them. And they have put their creed into word and sealed it with their own blood, spilled often and only rarely known by us.
This is their sacred code….written with the sacrifices of all those who came before them firmly in mind….
This weekend is a weekend of the fiercest PRIDE…
….of the most breathtaking AWE….
….of inexpressible GRATITUDE…
…..and undying APPRECIATION…
…..for all those who have ever fought and died to establish, protect and defend our great nation. The greatest nation the world has ever known.
To be an American is nothing less than knowing that, regardless of your personal circumstances, we are among the Lord God Almighty’s most highly favored children. And this is NOT our “right”. No. It is a terrible privilege of the most profound kind.
This Memorial Day 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 world.
This is a day when we honor our fallen warriors, who…along with their families…have sacrificed so much, so that we can enjoy the freedoms that we have.
Our Nation owes a debt of gratitude to our fallen warriors…and to our wounded warriors.
Even though they do not ask for thanks, we can never thank them enough.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this composition from Ivan Torrent, titled ‘Skyborn’:
Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is a view of a lone Knight on a white horse, slowly approaching on a pathway leading to a gigantic Tree. The enormous Tree is the size of a skyscraper, with a gnarled trunk and huge branches. There is a rough hillside in front of the tree…so we cannot see the base of it. Some stone ruins are off to the side of the Tree.
In the distance are some other gigantic Trees, which give us an idea of the scale of the one that the Knight is approaching. It is a sunny day with blue sky overhead and there are fluffy white clouds in the distance. Second Image: Is a set of arched doors that come to a pointed arch at the top. One of the doors is slightly ajar. There is ornate scrolled iron-work on the doors at their hinges, that covers quite a bit of each door. A large metal circle serves as the handle on one door…the other door has a metal gate across the lower half.
There is a stone path and couple of stone steps in front of the doors. There is ivy and green vegetation all around the door frame. Above the top of the doors, is a stone carving of a circular emblem of some sort. Sunlight is streaming down on this stone emblem and onto the steps leading up to the doors. Third Image: Is an open lounge with a view, filled with comfy-looking couches and over-stuffed chairs. There are lanterns all around, on the tables, on the guard rails and on out of the way places on the floor. There is a round free-standing stucco fireplace, with a warm-looking fire crackling within it. Large branches serve as supports for the ceiling, with cross-branches forming the structure for the ceiling. Fourth Image: Is our President, standing at a podium in the Rose Garden at the White House. He has a slight scowl on his face, as he is dealing with the press weasels…and looks like he would rather be somewhere else. He is wearing a dark blue suit with dark blue striped tie and there is flag pin on his lapel. Fifth Image: Is our Attorney General William Barr, looking forward with a no-nonsense, determined look on his face. Caption underneath: “Come on, Honey Badger…release the Kraken!”

It’s important to remember WHEN Hillary lost her shoe:
The TIMING of the 9/11 ceremony during one of her Parkinson’s “off days” was key to making this happen. Hillary had managed to schedule, reschedule, and SKIP events very carefully to avoid giving away the game of her Parkinson’s. She appeared on good days, and disappeared on bad days. This was not possible on 9/11. KARMA.
Cernovich and I were among the people who were convinced that Hillary Clinton had Parkinson’s. One of the opinions that I followed very closely on this was Ted Noel, who watched her closely in the news for signs of Parkinson’s. Here is one of his many videos on this:
https://youtu.be/eY5CqjmqWVI
Note that Dr. Noel warns that Hillary might show these eye symptoms in the then-upcoming debates – which SHE DID NOT. It is my contention that she had MUCH practice controlling all her outward symptoms of Parkinson’s. Similarly, the MEDIA was careful to do things and arrange things in a way that covered up for her. Thus, I’m not terribly surprised that she almost completely succeeded in covering things up at that first debate.
One of the things I was most proud of, was discovering (albeit somewhat later) that she was MASKING the classic Parkinsonian “pill-rolling tremor” in the first debate. It was interesting how she did this, with her hand flattened out on the podium. The KEY to seeing this was actually her trolls and shills, who tried to sell the “Hillary analysis crowd” on various extremely cunning bits of disinformation.
One of these disinformation items was to claim that Hillary’s index finger motions on the podium in the debate were some kind of hidden “scrolling mechanism” to look through her pre-prepared answers to questions. As you can imagine, such an idea is highly discrediting if it’s WRONG, and I could tell that I was being shilled VERY HARD on Parkinson’s stuff, so I (1) knew I was on the right track, OVER THE TARGET, and (2) whatever “extreme” things the shills were selling was probably disinformation.
Here is Hillary at the FIRST debate – the debate with Lester Holt and the mysterious podium-paper-snatching man known as “The Cleaner”. There was also some guy who removed a LIGHTING element from Hillary’s podium – presumably the element for the light-box prompter.
You can see that Hillary has her right hand in the air. At many points, she laid her hand FLAT on the wooden surface to the right of her papers, and rubbed her index finger back and forth on the surface in a very subtle way. I believe she was trained to do this whenever she felt a “pill-rolling tremor” coming on.
I do not have close-ups of Hillary’s fingers on the podium, but I did at the time we were analyzing this. They were quite interesting.
Based on the heavy shilling of the idea of a hidden scrolling mechanism, as well as the OBVIOUSNESS of three things that would have supported the bogus idea of the scrolling mechanism: (1) light-box turned on, although no apparent images on it, (2) the “Cleaner”, and (3) the guy removing the lighting element (clearly real), I now suggest the following scenario.
Hillary was NOT terribly worried about the idea that she was getting fed either questions or answers. THOSE IDEAS were not significant dangers for her to lose voters or potential voters. People, frankly, didn’t care if she was fed some answers. THAT is just CHEATING. Most Dems are actually not too bothered by cheating.
Thus, “cheating on questions and answers” – either by the “Cleaner” mechanism or by the lightbox mechanism – was an acceptable “lesser scandal” to promote and NEUTRALIZE the Parkinson’s scandal.
What Hillary WAS afraid of was the idea of Parkinson’s slipping out. THAT had the potential of taking a LOT of votes from her.
THEREFORE her people constructed the RUSE to both DISTRACT and to support the idea that her finger movements, even though well masked, were actually something ELSE. The elements of the ruse were the very obvious “Cleaner” (a distraction), the lightbox being on (likely needed to help Hillary see, anyway, versus Trump, who did not turn his on), and the removal of the lighting element from the podium DURING A TIME IT WOULD BE OBVIOUS. The POINT of all this was to put together a sexy, distracting, and discrediting alternative narrative to the truth – that Hillary was simply hiding her Parkinson’s pill-rolling tremor.
Do you see what we’re up against? And the fake news was ZERO help in this regard.
Nevertheless, justice was served. The Hillary “shoe” event – also known as the “side of beef” event – was when many people realized that Hillary Clinton was NOT WELL – and that she was lying about it. The fake news did its best to cover up, but they failed.

There may be some question about what speech is allowed here.
My goal is to be as expansive as possible, as far as RULES. My preference is to be no more restrictive than the First Amendment.
So far, the only LEGAL speech I’ve acted against is metaphorical “targeted violence” against famous individuals that is probably NOT a real threat, but is easily misinterpreted as one by our enemies, and thereby used to shut us down, or to paint me as a legitimate target in an abused law enforcement set-up.
I don’t actually LIKE that stance. I would prefer to fight it out on those cases, should the speech ever be questioned, when I know the person is NOT actually a threat. However, I’ve been CONNED before, and SETTING PEOPLE UP to come to the aid of BAIT VICTIMS is a specialty of the left. Just look at SPYGATE to see how this works.
When you see the wounded hostage girl in the middle of the road, you don’t help her. You dump 50,000 rounds of ammo into every conceivable ambush point. Then you inspect the bodies, remove the booby-traps from the girl, and interrogate her to see if she’s a true hostage. Probably not.
Now you understand why I dealt severely with these cases. Do it that way once, and they don’t happen again.
So what about child pornography?
Easy. It’s illegal. Not allowed. Along with any other clearly illegal speech.
NOW, that said, NOT all illegal speech will actually be removed from this site. Child pornography would be removed, obviously, because just looking at it intentionally is a crime. However, an ILLEGAL THREAT will remain posted PUBLICLY as EVIDENCE which the PUBLIC has a right to see. I would likely preserve the EVIDENCE and BAN THE ACCOUNT so that the evidence could not be deleted.
Unlike all these places that seem to think it’s OK to hide social media accounts once they become important, I will not hide evidence that the PUBLIC has a right to see. All arguments AGAINST this involve forms of PRIOR RESTRAINT, and I simply don’t buy that shit. Journalists have a RIGHT to see it. That includes citizen journalists.
Now – in the interest of investigations – into scandals like NXIVM, “pizzagate”, and the Podesta brothers, we may actually end up DISCUSSING child pornography. I don’t have a problem with that. AT ALL. If we have to label the threads NSFW, not a problem.
What about “plain old pornography”? Well, if it’s relevant to MAGA or citizen journalism in some way, like in the news, then not a problem. We may have to label a thread NSFW. That’s reasonable, IMO. We can work that out.
Personally, I think that LINKS will get us by for such cases, and I will definitely NOT censor such links. Authors, however, are free to enforce stricter or looser LEGAL standards on their own threads. We’ve already had NXIVM tattoos and barely-covered Stormy breasts on here, and there WAS that HC porn tweet on the Ted Cruz account that made big news, and I would have allowed that tweet to be posted in a comment. People had to CLICK IT to SEE IT. That’s pretty much the same as a link, IMO.
What about plain old “people want to look at porn”? I’m not sure if that violates the terms of service for WordPress, but there is that to consider. As it is, I don’t think any of our authors are likely to start a porn thread, but if it happened, I would insist that it be clearly marked and NOT have a graphic featured image. I would actually prefer it be passworded, but not sure if I have that capability on this site. I’ve never really looked into that.
We will cross that HIGHLY UNLIKELY bridge if and when we come to it. Personally, I think porn threads would be highly unpopular here, if only because most of us know it’s a form of cultural Marxism.
What about graphic violence?
Honestly, this stuff is going to appear routinely in any Daily Thread in a world with Communists and Muslims, and there is little point in labeling these threads all NSFW, but I think that people CAN consider using links instead of images.
HOWEVER, I am NOT going to restrict such speech. In some cases, I may even encourage it, as TRAINING. I would prefer to simply let people FIGHT IT OUT over content, rather than impose rules. Indeed, I have not seen you good people fight enough with each other over content. I feel like a free speech drill sergeant with a bunch of raw recruits who refuse to ENGAGE in fighting drills. Y’all are gonna need some toughening up.
To me, beheading pictures and “little-girl-run-over-by-a-jihadist” pictures are exactly what is needed to make people WAKE THE FUCK UP about the reality of the Red-Green axis and why it needs to be shut down HARD, with various Clintons and Podestas in PRISON, and suffering as many riots, rockets, and false flags as it takes. I mean, seriously. Are you folks ready for a NUKE OR TWO to shut down the cabal? I’m not seeing it. If you aren’t willing to see NUKES GO OFF – probably false flags or psychological terrorist actions by THEM – nuclear 9/11 – in our fight to protect free speech, you’re not ready for this fight. You will WIMP OUT on 1A.
The WOLF will not wimp out on 1A, 2A, or any of the rest. If we push THEM into some kind of “sum of all fears” action, TOUGH. THEY pay for THEIR crimes.
NO. PRIOR. RESTRAINT.
In addition, analysis of FAKE graphic violence is KEY to stopping the censorship movement, as PALLYWOOD and KIWIWOOD have both demonstrated.
SO – expect bloody and lurid as we topple the FAKE WORLD that has been imposed on us. If you need to look away, look away. Nobody will blame you.
This By-The-Book 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 world.
Yes, it’s Monday…again:
But it’s okay! We’ll get through it. We’ve got the good stuff:
And even the Polar Bear makes it through:
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.
Remember – your greatest gift to President Trump is FIVE WORDS:
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU.
Wheatie’s Rules:
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
