The Zyrtec Rebellion

Everybody underestimates Spain. The last letter in “PIGS” is far less of an insult than an error.

Years ago, when I was at a conference, and Japanese industrial spies were getting me drunk (it was a great red wine), I decided that I had to give them SOMETHING for their time and effort, if only to keep them distracted, so instead of giving them any of our actual concerns, I gave them my personal assessment of “somebody else’s industry in Spain”. It was great information, and it was true – and as I always say, the TRUTH is the best cover of all. The Japanese were as surprised as I had been, when I realized how far and how fast Spain had come after it emerged from Franco – at that time almost as backwards as Cuba.

Whether I was ratting out Spain or bragging up Spain, DO NOT underestimate Spain. When Spain is FREE and prosperous, the WORLD prospers.

So when it came to my attention recently that “Spanish medical deplorables” had found the key to ending America’s COVID communism problem, I “trusted the science” immediately.

Reading the paper convinced me even more.

I don’t remember WHO on this site posted the first link to the “Spanish nursing home antihistamine paper“, or on what site that link was found (H/T to whoever!) [LATER – RAC found it – it was Deplorable Patriot, HERE], but the results described therein were every bit as impressive as the story of the American nursing home that saved all its residents by immediate administration of prophylactic hydroxychloroquine.

To briefly describe what happened, Spanish nursing homes were horribly impacted by the COVID pandemic, but TWO of them stood out by having almost no deaths at all.

The story there is a beautiful example of SCIENCE IN ACTION. It was a simple empirical observation, but the best science happens that way. And I quote…..

“We included antihistamines for the treatment of all patients after observing that when added to the initial treatment, our patients had a notable improvement in 24–48 h.”

After they did this – NOBODY DIED.

The Spanish crisis was between March and May of 2020. From May to August 2020, applying the therapy, there were no new cases or deaths. The results were researched and submitted for publication (received) on September 16, 2020. The paper was published online 4 months later, on January 16, 2021, and appeared in the April, 2021 issue of the journal.

Abstract

Background

Between March and April 2020, 84 elderly patients with suspected COVID-19 living in two nursing homes of Yepes, Toledo (Spain) were treated early with antihistamines (dexchlorpheniramine, cetirizine or loratadine), adding azithromycin in the 25 symptomatic cases. The outcomes are retrospectively reported. The primary endpoint is the fatality rate of COVID-19. The secondary endpoints are the hospital and ICU admission rates. Endpoints were compared with the official Spanish rates for the elderly. The mean age of our population was 85 and 48% were over 80 years old. No hospital admissions, deaths, nor adverse drug effects were reported in our patient population. By the end of June, 100% of the residents had positive serology for COVID-19. Although clinical trials are needed to determine the efficacy of both drugs in the treatment of COVID-19, this analysis suggests that primary care diagnosis and treatment with antihistamines, plus azithromycin in selected cases, may treat COVID-19 and prevent progression to severe disease in elderly patients.

Now – here is where it gets interesting.

BIG hat tip to barkerjim for bringing this BACK to my attention.

It really took Karl Denninger seeing this, to put a fine point on it.

LINK: https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=243683

ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/2HZzC

Here is Denninger:

Once Upon A Time…

… in a not-so-tiny nation called Spain, a nursing home had a nasty virus get into it.

It was March of 2020.  The nasty virus was called Covid-19.  And this nursing home, like so many others all over the world, was full of elderly, morbid people.  The mean age of residents was 85 and 48% were over 80 years old.  It was a killing field, like so many others…..

Within three months 100% of the residents had caught the virus.  Not presumed to have — proved to have.

How do we know this?  Because almost every one of them seroconverted.  All but three out of 84 of them, to be precise.

Think about that last sentence for a second.

Almost every one of them seroconverted.

How’s that possible?  Many of them died, right?  You can’t seroconvert if you’re dead.

No.  Not only did nearly none die none went to the hospital either because they rapidly figured out how to stop the virus from killing people — and did exactly that.

You would have thought this would have been all over the news.  In point of fact not one mention of it was made.  Further, not one write-up was made in medical journals either until January of 2021, which I missed.  My bad — out of the several hundred medical journal pieces, I missed this one.  It was brought to my attention on my forum and my jaw immediately hit the floor.

The jab train must continue, you see.  So must the ventilator train.  So must the money train, the mask train and the rest of the BS we have endured for the last 18+ months.

So must the slaughter for money, the fear, and the lies.

MORE (and it’s really worth reading the rest of Karl’s thoughts).

The answer isn’t vaccines. It isn’t remdesivir. It isn’t even blowdarts.

The answer was simply “use more OTC antihistamines”, plus Z-Pack, if you want to be extra certain, this flu season.

But you see, there would have been no crisis that way.

https://qalerts.app/?q=covid

SO – here are MY thoughts.

There are lots of ways to skin the COVID cat. The point is to do two things.

(1) Don’t die or suffer serious and lasting damage

(2) Gain as much immunity as you can, with NATURAL being almost certainly THE BEST.

I have always been a fan of hydroxychloroquine.

I have since then ALSO become a fan of ivermectin.

But I am now going to add an entire CLASS of drugs which can help guarantee survival of COVID-19.

And if colorful boxes don’t “impress” you enough….. try molecules!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cetirizine

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dexchlorpheniramine

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loratadine

Seriously, I think that one of the most FAILSAFE WAYS to deal with likely or confirmed COVID (antigen tests are basically $13) is to treat with antihistamines immediately, and ask the doctor for Z-Pack (azithromycin).

If you HAVE hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin, great – but if not, then antihistamines are the stuff.

The HORRIBLE CDC, FDA, NIH, and BIG PHARMA cannot – at this moment – restrict you from getting antihistamines. And I know for a FACT that these drugs last a LONG time. They remain effective LONG after their expiration dates.

So buy some now, and by the time you need more, you will be immune, and JOE BIDEN and KAMALA HARRIS will be LONG GONE.

Cheers!

2021·09·25 Joe Biden Didn’t Win Daily Thread

His Fraudulency

Joe Biteme, properly styled His Fraudulency, continues to infest the White House, we haven’t heard much from the person who should have been declared the victor, and hopium is still being dispensed even as our military appears to have joined the political establishment in knuckling under to the fraud.

One can hope that all is not as it seems.

I’d love to feast on that crow.

Justice Must Be Done.

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

The Audit

On that note, reading comments on the Friday thread, there seems to be mixed opinions on whether the audit was good news, bad news, and if good news, exactly what could be done with it.

I suspect a lot of discussion will be going on today, as we digest what we’ve seen and read.

But at least it finally is out.

Lawyer Appeasement Section

OK now for the fine print.

This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines,  here, with an addendum on 20191110.

We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.

And remember Wheatie’s Rules:

1. No food fights
2. No running with scissors.
3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
4. Zeroth rule of gun safety: Don’t let the government get your guns.
5. Rule one of gun safety: The gun is always loaded.
5a. If you actually want the gun to be loaded, like because you’re checking out a bump in the night, then it’s empty.
6. Rule two of gun safety: Never point the gun at anything you’re not willing to destroy.
7. Rule three: Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to fire.
8. Rule the fourth: Be sure of your target and what is behind it.

All prices are down from a few weeks ago, however this week some are up a bit and some are down a bit. Perhaps we’re bottoming out? Or just reversing for a bit before continuing the trend? Who knows? I was in a local coin shop and people were buying silver, taking advantage of the relatively low prices.

I fought a futile battle to write something coherent.

About halfway through, I realized it needed rework, and probably should be split into two posts. So perhaps next week…

NIH and Gilead Blamecasting Remdesivir Renal Toxicity to an Excipient

Well, they can lock us out of The Q Tree, but they can’t stop the truth from getting out.

Enjoy a post first over on The U Tree and now HERE.

Here is a quickie in my WAR ON REMDESIVIR.

Fellow Treeper barkerjim dropped an interesting document today, from back in July, which showed the NIH mentioning black sheep IVERMECTIN on the same page as REMDESIVIR.

LINK: https://www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/tables/table-2e/

ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/VNwhF

Such a beautiful misdirection. These guys are MAGICIANS.

This is a perfect example of my postulate that fighting FOR ivermectin will not yield results for restoring real science as fast as fighting AGAINST remdesivir.

In fact, I would go so far as to say that the enemy realized that getting us to fight FOR the saving drug would keep us from expending our energy fighting AGAINST the murdering drug that kills us off and gives them money for doing it.

You may recall my previous posts about remdesivir.

Remdesivir Is How We Bring Down The Temple of Faucism

The Murder of Veronica Wolski by Fauci and Gilead’s Zyklon D

My next piece was going to be an expansion on Karl Denninger’s recent post which places remdesivir/ivermectin and remdesivir/hydroxychloroquine in the context of Anthony Fauci and the disturbingly similar case when he was “all about AIDS” – namely, AZT/bactrim.

LINK: https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=243640

YES. As Cthulhu has said before, “This is not Fauci’s first rodeo.”

Before there were hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin as innocent victims – good Samaritans accused falsely before the world – there was BACTRIM.

And there was FAUCI on all of them. AZT played the murderous part of remdesivir long before we forgot that “miracle drug”.

However, this new information from barkerjim’s drop right here needs to get out right away. The Q Tree site was brought down YET AGAIN as I started working on this, and again when I resumed, so I know it’s critical stuff. The ChiComs have a huge investment – both financial and military 4GW – in the American-killing drug remdesivir. They WILL protect it.

We know from doctors and scientists quoted in my first two articles, that remdesivir has a horrible track record – shocking, really – of renal toxicity. Studies of the drug against Ebola were TERMINATED because it was killing people in the hospital.

How déjà vu.

But here it comes again.

I read the same study results that the above celebratory announcement was made over. Those results were nothing to cheer about, with shot kidneys just the horrifying icing on the death cake. In my opinion, the results were far WORSE than any prior results for hydroxychloroquine. The results – to me – made HCQ look EXCELLENT in comparison.

Yes – by controlling what is acceptable science and what is not, Fauci was able to force the world to field a BAD, DANGEROUS DRUG that made money for Gilead, over a safe, mildly (but critically) effective drug, that made money only for the generics industry, and a French company.

And to top it off, Fauci USED Trump, who could do absolutely nothing about it, to take a KILLER drug into market as the ONLY way to treat his little pandemic.

So let’s take a look at that page dropped by barkerjim. I have captured it as SIX IMAGES.

Again, the link: https://www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/tables/table-2e/

As you can see by our comments on The U Tree, most people will look at this table and think they are seeing positive and reasonable behavior by NIH. Adverse events are being discussed, and it appears that things are “even-handed” between different drugs.

And that is EXACTLY the style in which EVIL ABOUNDS IN WASHINGTON, DC (or Atlanta). Good and evil are forced into compromises where GOOD LOSES and EVIL WINS – but the result is called “meeting in the middle”.

CLOSER INSPECTION of the table gives you this, under Adverse Events for remdesivir.

  • Nausea
  • ALT and AST elevations
  • Hypersensitivity
  • Increases in prothrombin time
  • Drug vehicle is SBECD, which has been associated with renal and liver toxicity. SBECD accumulation may occur in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment.
  • Each 100 mg vial of RDV lyophilized powder contains 3 g of SBECD, and each 100 mg/20 mL vial of RDV solution contains 6 g of SBECD.
  • Clinicians may consider preferentially using the lyophilized powder formulation (which contains less SBECD) in patients with renal impairment.

This is some of the most remarkable “medical misinformation” I’ve ever seen. It’s truly a work of art.

NIH has HIDDEN – completely hidden – the pronounced renal toxicity of remdesivir. They have hidden it COMPLETELY. It’s GONE. What you are seeing there – the talk about renal and liver toxicity – is a BLAME-SHIFT to a substance that is used WIDELY in intravenous formulations, called sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin, or SBECD for short.

This substance is an EXCIPIENT.

An excipient is a substance that is used to MIX with a drug, and take that drug into a form where it can be ADMINISTERED easily. Thus, an excipient may DISSOLVE the drug, or help to dissolve it, into a liquid form. It may help POWDER the drug, so that it can be pressed into tablets or filled into capsules.

Excipients are often considered “inactive ingredients”, even though – YES – they very much can change the effective amount of a drug that the patient gets.

If I had to describe SBECD as something, it would be as a DETERGENT FOR DRUGS. It’s a kind of SOAP made from a cyclodextrin, instead of from some kind of fat or lipid.

And what is a cyclodextrin?

Cyclodextrins are rings of sugar molecules that falls somewhere in between being a smaller chain sugar (like sucrose) and a starch. Cyclodextrins have lots of uses, because they form tubes that act like waffle cones for other molecules. Febreze uses cyclodextrins to trap molecules which have unpleasant odors, at the same time that they release more pleasant ones. A genius application, quite frankly.

Thus, if you make a SOAP that has a little waffle cone for drugs, you can EASILY get drugs to dissolve into a concentrated liquid form by using that soap.

See those sidechains hanging off the cyclodextrin ring? Those are the “SBE” part of SBECD. They are typical of DETERGENTS.

This SBECD stuff and things like it are VERY useful for delivery of drugs. AND they’re relatively safe, too. They are rapidly excreted through the kidneys. Yeah, you don’t want a SOAP piling up in your blood if your kidneys are not working, and THAT is the fact that is being TWISTED by NIH when they say:

Drug vehicle is SBECD, which has been associated with renal and liver toxicity. SBECD accumulation may occur in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment.

Did you catch that sleight of hand? I’m gonna show it to you.

What exactly is causing the renal problems in the FIRST PLACE that you MAY have to be careful about, so that you don’t build up the excipient FOR IT, which MAY constitute a FURTHER risk?

REMDESIVIR.

It’s a crafty little lie. If you have good kidneys, you don’t have anything to worry about with this SBECD crap. But if you have bad kidneys, the LEAST of your problems is SBECD buildup. It’s the remdesivir IN the SBECD that’s gonna kill you.

Weakened kidneys do NOT need to be hit with remdesivir.

Which doesn’t even work ANYWAY. Except to keep people LONGER in the hospital.

Now what you SHOULD be getting, when they administer remdesivir, at the point where the VIRUS is basically gone, and you’re dealing with spike protein damage, cytokine storm, and all that nasty crap, are antiinflammatory, antithrombotic, and immunomodulatory drugs. Even HCQ (a known antirheumatic) at reasonable doses had some antiinflammatory effect in late-stage hospitalized COVID cases, although steroids and other things work better.

When the virus is basically gone, and a bunch of its CRAP is left behind, there is no point administering a toxic antiviral like remdesivir, other than to send money to Gilead Pharmaceuticals and their Deep State friends.

Now, let me stop here and validate this stuff.

HERE is a link that explains how SBECD can be filtered out of blood ANYWAY if a patient has renal impairment.

LINK: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4338618/

Do you see what that means? SBECD is a nothingburger. It’s a DEFLECTION.

The renal problems of remdesivir are never mentioned, by quickly bringing up the risks of the excipient due to the unmentioned damage BY remdesivir.

What NIH did here was to quickly point their finger at THE OTHER GUY and said “HE DID IT!”

This is pure politicized science, where the politics is to defend the drugs and vaccines that enable the shared profits of both the Deep State and the companies that NIH, CDC, and NIAID are in bed with.

Let’s go back to that link I just gave you. THIS part of the conclusions comports very nicely with the reality of SBECD as a widely used excipient.

The finding that SBECD can be effectively removed by CVVH is clinically important, because some cyclodextrins have been associated with hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity due to vacuolation [3]. Although our study was small, no evidence to suggest SBECD as a cause of hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity was demonstrated in our study patients. This finding is consistent with other SBECD safety studies in humans [3,18]. Additionally, animal studies have only been able to demonstrate cyclodextrin toxicities when dosages more than 50-fold greater (3,000 mg/kg) than those used in humans were administered [3,19,20]. Unlike other cyclodextrins used in these animal studies, SBECD undergoes only minimal tubular reabsorption and limits concentrations within the intracellular tissues of the kidney, potentially reducing the risk of nephrotoxicity. Nevertheless, the FDA labeling for voriconazole recommends that IV therapy be avoided, if possible, in patients with a CrCl <50 ml/min [5]. Our data suggest that IV voriconazole can be safely administered in this population if the patient is concurrently undergoing CVVH.

But if you don’t believe THAT study, try THIS ONE.

Abstract

Delafloxacin, a fluoroquinolone, has activity against Gram-positive organisms including methicillin-resistant S aureus and fluoroquinolone-susceptible and -resistant Gram-negative organisms. The intravenous formulation of delafloxacin contains the excipient sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBECD), which is eliminated by renal filtration. This study examined the pharmacokinetics and safety of SBECD after single intravenous (IV) infusions in subjects with renal impairment. The study was an open-label, parallel-group, crossover study in subjects with normal renal function or mild, moderate, or severe renal impairment, and those with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis. Subjects received 300 mg delafloxacin IV or placebo IV, containing 2400 mg SBECD, in 2 periods separated by ≥14-day washouts. SBECD total clearance decreased with decreasing renal function, with a corresponding increase in area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-∞ ). After IV delafloxacin 300 mg administration, SBECD mean total clearance was 6.28 and 1.24 L/h, mean AUC0-∞ was 387 and 2130 h·μg/mL, and mean renal clearance was 5.36 and 1.14 L/h in normal and severe renal subjects, respectively. Similar values were obtained after IV placebo administration. In subjects with end-stage renal disease, delafloxacin 300 mg IV produced mean SBECD AUC0-48 values of 2715 and 7861 h·μg/mL when dosed before and after hemodialysis, respectively. Total SBECD clearance exhibited linear relationships to estimated glomerular filtration rate and creatinine clearance. Single doses of IV delafloxacin 300 mg and IV placebo were well tolerated in all groups. In conclusion, decreasing renal function causes reduced SBECD clearance and increased exposures, but SBECD continues to exhibit a good safety and tolerability profile in IV formulations.

Keywords: Delafloxacin; Hemodialysis; Pharmacokinetics; Renal Dysfunction; Sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin.

I’m going to repeat that.

“In conclusion, decreasing renal function causes reduced SBECD clearance and increased exposures, but SBECD continues to exhibit a good safety and tolerability profile in IV formulations.“

Now, the above is not the only “New York Times” style trick that NIH plays here.

Let me list, without going into long-winded explanations, my additional favorites.

  • The table authors note that clinical drug-drug interaction studies have not been done, but nonetheless, they say “CQ or HCQ may decrease the antiviral activity of RDV; coadministration of these drugs is not recommended.1” – with a hanging reference.
  • For three OTHER potential drug interactions, communications from Gilead are cited as sufficiently exonerating. One is a non-competing generic steroid (dexamethasone) and the other two are patented big pharma antivirals from corporate “frenemy” Genentech. The interaction and “C-level mind-melding” between these two companies is very interesting. Look who just went from one to the other. Interesting times.
  • Some crafty shade is thrown at ivermectin by citing a possible adverse event risk and then retracting it, lawyer-style: “Neurological AEs have been reported when IVM has been used to treat parasitic diseases, but it is not clear whether these AEs were caused by IVM or the underlying conditions.” Meanwhile, the DEMONSTRATED risks of remdesivir are not even mentioned.

Bottom line – NIH is protecting Gilead on the toxicity of remdesivir, and they used FAKE NEWS tricks to do it. I keep telling people – science journalism is bad, and science governance is WORSE. It’s been CHINATIZED and OBAMATIZED.

And we’re going to UNDO THAT.

DEAR KAG: 20210924

“So, I think the real question in this crisis is what is there on our view of man and our world, and on the way in which we look on life, that makes us experience a lack of sensemaking.  In my opinion, I think we must conclude it is something in our materialistic, mechanistic view of man and the world that leads up to radical destruction of the real social structures and social bonds and the feeling that life makes sense.  If you believe that human beings are biological machines, then this implies, by definition, that life is senseless.”

Professor Mattias Desmet

Welcome back to Wolf’s Pub!

The Arizona audit report drops today. Let the fireworks begin. It feels like we’ve been trudging through a mucky swamp trying to get somewhere and we can see the shore but can’t quite get there.

I really hope that Maricopa blows the whole thing sky high. And it was really nice to see President Trump (our real President) take Texas Governor Greg Abbott to task about auditing Texas. We know Abbott and his cronies across the state don’t want audits because many Republicans will be implicated. This is not about Republicans and Democrats.

It’s about Good and Evil. It’s been enormously painful to see the depth of corruption in our nation’s institutions. Very, very painful.

IT’S A SPIRITUAL PROBLEM

One question that has dogged me since the whole Great Reset was kicked off with the CCP Virus, is how can so many people be so fooled for so long when the truth is being trumpeted across the width and depth of independent media?

Well, I ran across an interview that Reiner Fullmich conducted with Belgian psychologist and professor, Mattias Desmet: The Psychology of Covid-19 (Mass Formation and Totalitarian Thinking):

This is an utterly fascinating discussion regarding how large groups of people fall willingly into totalitarianism.

Light bulbs were going off in my head as I listened to this interview. Professor Desmet says four things must be present in order to facilitate the conditions for a people to go down the road of societal madness:

  1. A lot of socially isolated people,
  2. A lot of people who lack sense-making in life
  3. Free floating anxiety
  4. Free floating psychological discontent

These four conditions existed prior to Covid. Larry Turner writes about Professor Desmet’s interview here. He explains:

“If these four factors are present in enough members of any given society, Desmet says the society in question is at risk for the ‘crystallizing’ action of “mass formation” where large numbers of discontented, anxious, confused, and isolated people simultaneously and suddenly seize upon some single apparent threat and give it their entire attention and energy. The basic reason for this attention and energy seizure, according to Desmet, is that putting focus on a single apparent threat provides immediate and palpable relief from a constellation of the longstanding chronic pressures of social isolation, lack of sensemaking, and free-floating anxiety and discontent.  This mobilization of individual attention and energy against some single perceived threat unfortunately, according to Desmet’s explanation of the phenomena, segues easily into increasingly totalitarian government behavior.

Desmet believes that this is exactly what has happened and is happening to greater or lesser degrees all over the globe in response to the COVID19 virus pandemic. He posits that – judging from measures of high and increasing drug use, increased job burnout and economic dissatisfaction, and increasing social isolation – that prior to the arrival of COVID19 a significant number of humans were extremely uncomfortable with their lives. With the arrival of the virus, however, they were able to unload their longstanding unfocused anxiety and discontent onto the ‘COVID19 crisis’, thereby obtaining a welcome and immediate release from their chronic discomforts and tensions.  Desmet refers to the immediate feeling of relief felt by those previously heavily burdened with isolation, lack of sensemaking, and free-floating anxiety and discontent as a “mental intoxication”.

Larry Turner

Turner writes more about this phenomenon and Dr. Desmet’s explanation of it here.

What about those who don’t get caught up in the lies and mass formation? Desmet says:

“Usually it is only about 30% [of a population that gets] grasped in a mass phenomenon or hypnosis.  An additional 35-45% usually does not want to raise a dissonant voice in the public space because they are scared of the consequences.  So, usually about 70% who shut up – 30% because they are convinced by the mainstream narrative and 40% because they don’t dare to speak out.  And then there is an additional 20-25-30% who does not go along with the narrative and says it in certain situations.”

Professor Mattias Desmet

Those who are immune tend to be independent thinkers. Take a bow, guys.

Very worth your time to listen in. I definitely feel smarter after listening to the interview and reading about it. 😊

HOUSE RULES

Well, since we’re a pretty durned sense-making and cohesive group here at the Qtree, it only requires a reminder of the rules of this place. Go here to review.

If you don’t feel like fitting in for the moment here, the Utree is a welcome and present aid to run to blow off some steam. It’s also our place to reconvene during various attacks on this site, the server, and the hosting company. Prayers all around to keep us all up and running.

SACROSANCT BEER?

Since today’s opener features Professor Desmet, a Belgian, I thought it appropriate to offer a nice selection of Belgian beers today. Here’s a nice article that explains the seriousness with which the Belgians feel about their beer.

According to the author, Tom Green,

“In Belgium, beer is sacrosanct. Committed to tradition, Belgian brewers make some of the world’s greatest and most timeless beer. In the thousands of local pubs spread across the small country, beer is a unifying source of pride for the Belgian people.”

Tom Green

I watched the video embedded within the article that talks about the fact that there are over 1,500 different Belgian beers, which is amazing considering the small size of Belgium. These people are serious about beer. I mean, beer-making and beer-drinking is pretty much the national past-time.

When all this Great Reset has been beaten to death, I want to go bar-hopping in Belgium.

Meanwhile, I present the iconic (in America) version of Belgian beer: Blue Moon Belgian White

I’ve always found it very palatable. Read here how Blue Moon came to be. And for astronomy buffs, the next Blue Moon will appear in our skies on Friday, August 30, 2023.

BACK TO THE AUDIT

This picture of the Canary Islands, where that volcano has been erupting is some firework, eh? Intense video images here.

It has been said, repeatedly and truly, that if the 2020 election is not fixed, then 2022 and 2024 don’t matter. The audits in all 50 states will reveal that our votes have been stolen, are being stolen, and will be stolen if election reform is not enacted.

This type of propaganda is what we’ve had to fight: AZ State Sen: Results of sham GOP ‘audit’ will be a ‘clown show’

You know what? We aren’t going away. We aren’t giving up. The audits will be done. And the commie/globalists can take that and stuff it.

The entire world is watching.
Patriots from around the world are praying for AMERICA.
We are all bound by a feeling deep inside, a feeling that cannot be publicly expressed for fear of ridicule, a feeling that challenges the mainstream (narrative), against that which we are told to accept and dare not question, put simply, that people are being abused by those in power and time is running out.
Remember the battles of Lexington and Concord – “Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death!”
For far too long we have been silent and allowed our bands of strength, that we once formed to defend FREEDOM and LIBERTY, to deteriorate.
We became divided.
We became weak.
We elected TRAITORS to govern us.
We allowed EVIL to prey on us.
Those who claimed to represent us gave us false hope, made false promises.
The evil and corruption only grew.
——————————
This is more than party politics.
This is about restoring OLD GLORY.
This is about saving our land and our people from those who wish us harm.
This is about preserving our REPUBLIC.
This is about preserving our SAFETY.
This is about restoring our STRENGTH.
This is about LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.
This is about PROTECTING our children.
THIS IS ABOUT SAVING AMERICA.
We are all God’s children.
We are, FATHERS.
We are, MOTHERS.
We are, DAUGHTERS.
We are, SONS.
We are, BROTHERS.
We are, SISTERS.
We do not look at race.
We do not look at skin color.
We are UNITED in these STATES OF AMERICA.
We are, and will always be, PATRIOTS.
WE MUST RISE AGAIN.
WE MUST UNITE AGAIN.
WE MUST FIGHT AGAIN.
FOR GOD & COUNTRY.
GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Q

Have you ever stopped to think about what life would be like here in the United States if we did not have the Bill of Rights?

A quick look around the world as the “COVID” lockdowns continue shows us just what could happen if we:

  • Did not have the right to speak our minds even if social media platforms take down the messaging. No one has been jailed for it, and effectively, the censorship is magnified when this happens.
  • Did not have the right to peacefully assemble, even if the local governments think they can limit the numbers of people in any one place. (Who actually paid attention to this one when whoever it was said, no more than six family members? I know families that max that out just with their kids.)
  • Did not have the right to religion, and not having an official state religion, the leaders of the various branches of worship technically do not have to really go along with government edicts.
  • Did not have the right to not just petition the government, but sue when human rights are on the line.
  • Did not have the right to point a weapon at a physical threat. Just being able to own a weapon keeps things more civil.
  • Did not have the right to refuse entry to government forces, i.e., police, FBI, and others, without cause.
  • And, this is not enshrined in the founding documents of the nation, but what if we did not have the right to privacy for our medical records?

What if?

We’re seeing “what if” in video and stories coming from Australia, specifically, among other places around the world. The people there are living a nightmare we CAN and ARE avoiding due to the foresight of our founders. The Biden camp is giving it a shot, putting us in a tyrannical situation, but it really isn’t working the way they intended given that we have these rights and there’s not a darn thing they can do about it.

Not only that, we exercise those rights.

Are we making good use of it?

It’s a good question given that in the United States, compared to the rest of the world, the public demonstrations have been muted largely due to the threat of the movement being blamed for a false flag. Yes, there is a lot of movement at the local level, which is a good thing, and people are being entrenched in the election system, but are we really giving it all to protect the freedoms that the founders secured?

That is a question yet to be answered. When the Patriot Act is rescinded, we’ll be on the right track. No more of this going along to get along.

Understanding this point, is, IMO anyway, what constitutes THE GREAT AWAKENING.

Are we there yet?

Carlin:

A little mood music.

Brings back memories.

And now for the business portion.

Please review our HOST and site owner’s Guidelines for posting and discussion for this site. Wolf is kind enough to put up with *most* of us and our antics after thorough vetting. Violators of the baiting and deliberately attempting to divide the group rules WILL face consequences.

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Company manners are appreciated. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog out discussions best saved for a wrestling mat. If, for some reason, this site is not available, head over to the UTree and visit the post at the top of the list or the closest rescue thread.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

THAT MEANS THAT ALL OF US HERE ARE ENTITLED TO OUR OPINIONS AND PREJUDICES, ETC., SO LONG AS THEY CAUSE NO PHYSICAL HARM TO OTHERS OR DOXX OUR FELLOW TREE DWELLERS.

All opinions here are valued for the diversity they bring to the issues, and the shaping of understanding regarding topics for which many of us do not have all information. Correcting the record on any one topic is appreciated.

Be careful in expressing thoughts as we would all like to think well of the rest of the group, and ill-thought out comments have a way of wrecking that for everyone.

Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights
  2. No running with scissors
  3. If you bring snacks, be sure they are made with bacon

Auntie DePat’s requests as we are all supposedly adults and don’t just play them on TV like the body doubles pretending to be the squatter in chief:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

HAGGAI 2:1-9

1in the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet, 2“Speak now to Zerub’babel the son of She-al’ti-el, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehoz’adak, the high priest, and to all the remnant of the people, and say, 3`Who is left among you that saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Is it not in your sight as nothing? 4Yet now take courage, O Zerub’babel, says the LORD; take courage, O Joshua, son of Jehoz’adak, the high priest; take courage, all you people of the land, says the LORD; work, for I am with you, says the LORD of hosts, 5according to the promise that I made you when you came out of Egypt. My Spirit abides among you; fear not. 6For thus says the LORD of hosts: Once again, in a little while, I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land; 7and I will shake all nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with splendor, says the LORD of hosts. 8The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, says the LORD of hosts. 9The latter splendor of this house shall be greater than the former, says the LORD of hosts; and in this place I will give prosperity, says the LORD of hosts.

PSALMS 43:1-4

1Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause against an ungodly people; from deceitful and unjust men deliver me! 2For thou art the God in whom I take refuge; why hast thou cast me off? Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? 3Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me, let them bring me to thy holy hill and to thy dwelling! 4Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; and I will praise thee with the lyre, O God, my God.

Interview With A Victim of Jab-Haul COVID

I have here an absolutely fascinating video (end of article) from Gab TV that fits right into everything I know about COVID-19 and the spike protein vaccines, like the last piece of a puzzle.

The video is just under 1/2 hour in length, but it is FILLED with little AHA moments.

An extremely articulate, healthy, successful, C-level professional woman got the jab voluntarily, for the best of reasons, and caught a nasty case of something which is very similar to “LONG-HAUL COVID”, describes exactly what happened to her. She clearly has “brain fog”, but under excellent questioning by an interviewer who has talked to her before, she is continuously prompted to get the whole story out.

And her story is a DOOZY.

Her case is – in the days after injection – almost identical to the NURSING HOME PATIENTS who were also injected with Pfizer, but who DIED several days later, correlating to injection, and whose deaths were blamed FALSELY on a “super-spreader”, to cover for the vaccines – except this lady was too healthy to die, so she’s just DISABLED.

Here is the comparison video about the nursing home victims.

LINK: https://rumble.com/vdaicp-cna-nursing-home-whistleblower-seniors-are-dying-like-flies-after-covid-inj.html

One of the things to listen for in the new video is the MAYO CLINIC. All your suspicions about the compromise of the Mayo Clinic will be confirmed here in spades.

Another is LYMPH NODE INFLAMMATION, which I see as a metric of vaccine migration, localization, and persistence. Based on what happened to this lady, viewed in light of what was learned from the Sorrento vaccine, which primarily concentrates in and immunizes from the lymph nodes, we can see exactly what is wrong with the mRNA approach in the Pfizer vaccine. This lady was clearly cranking out tons of spike protein into her system for 3 MONTHS.

LINK 1: https://investors.sorrentotherapeutics.com/news-releases/news-release-details/sorrento-announces-its-lead-protein-based-covid-19-vaccine

LINK 2: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.17.456704v1.full

Is that due to the JAENISCH PAPER? Is genetic incorporation in some cases creating durable spike protein generation excesses?

LINK: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.12.12.422516v1.full

Here is a link to the video. I can’t show it here without it auto-starting. Just click the link!

VIDEO LINK:

https://tv.gab.com/channel/creativedestructionmedia/view/episode-15-american-conversations-with-614470f051dee48dd91d53f1

It’s very helpful to compare this DIRECTLY with information from a doctor named Bruce Patterson, who is likely the world’s expert on long-haul COVID.

This lady’s symptoms are EXACTLY what is described for long-haul COVID in patients who can no longer engage in strenuous physical activity.

Start at around 5:00 minutes if you are pressed for time – the answers come in the next 3 minutes after that.

What you will learn is that the spike protein hangs around long after it was created, and can in fact be carried in the bloodstream by monocytes for 15 MONTHS.

Is everything starting to make sense now?

GOOD.

Stay the HELL away from boosters.

mRNA vaccines were NOT designed in the patients’ best interests. They were designed to get approval for gene therapy.

Thank you, Suzanne Newell. Your testimony of TRUTH will SET US FREE.

Please Pray For Our Hosting Company

As we have been repeatedly warned – even by the VERY ENEMIES who are attacking us (i.e., KlauSS “Hog-Jowls” SSchwab and the WEFFEN SS), there was going to be a “cyber war” this summer – obviously timed to deal with the “fall” of the FAKE ELECTION and the CHINA VIRUS.

Thus, between the CHINAZIS and the EUNAZIS, plus the BIDENAZIS and assorted American PROGZIS, to say nothing of the GLOBONAZIS, we have a bunch of people ready to attack us.

While I try not to give away too much potentially useful (to THEM) strategic information about what is going on, it has become obvious that various forces want to make life rough for the commenters on this site.

The attack on our site include attacks on our server (and service) directly, on the people who are commenting on or viewing the site, AND on the hosting company itself.

The attack on the hosting company has been particularly insidious.

If our hosting company (who I refer to as “COUGH-COUGH.com”) can be brought down, several patriot sites will fall, including one of the most important players of all, GAB.

There has been much back-and-forth in this war. Both I and our hosts have been forced to take a variety of evasive actions over the summer.

I have never, in the entire history of this site, had to be so restrictive in terms of registrations (which must now be done MANUALLY) and user features (which had to be turned off for the non-registered users), as I have in the last few months.

And yet, despite all those measures, we just experienced one of our most serious attacks yet, locking many people out of the site, and attempting some really NASTY “get the users to turn off security” attacks, so that ANY of our registered users (and especially our authors) might get spoofed.

They are desperate, and they are persistent.

Now – with ALL of that stuff going on in MY world (remember 60,000 “Russian” phony registrations?), there is now a sustained and multifaceted attack on our hosting company, trying to distract them from the coming AUDIT ATTACKS (in my opinion).

This attack on the hosting company is a threat to ALL sites hosted by them, but most of all it is a threat to the honorable name and reputation of that company. That’s how the other side works. They are DESTROYING what they cannot legislate out of existence.

Our hosts are grateful for the support and prayers of their customers, as they, even in their time of trial, are praying for us. Thus, I ask all of you, to say a quick prayer for our hosting company.

We continue to use The U Tree as a backup, and it is functioning well in that regard. Please feel free to assemble there and to CARRY ON.

Simply carrying on is perhaps the greatest thing you can do to defeat the ChiNazi menace and the WEFFEN SS. Make their attacks pointless in the end. If you attack them TWICE AS HARD for sending you to The U Tree, then you have just invalidated all their work to get you there.

Be of good cheer, live your best life, and fight your best fight. Fear not an enemy without God.

We not only have something they don’t – we wish our treasure to be theirs as well.

Dear KAG: 20210922 Open Thread

I did not expect today to be spiritual warfare day here at Wolf’s sanctuary, but a handful of things changed my mind.

The first was an article by Dennis Prager.

Here is something any honest person must acknowledge: As America has become more secular, it has become less free.

Individuals can differ as to whether these two facts are correlated, but no honest person can deny they are facts.

It seems to me indisputable that they are correlated. To deny this, one would have to argue that it is merely coincidental that free speech, the greatest of all freedoms, is more seriously threatened than at any time in American history while a smaller-than-ever percentage of Americans believe in God or regularly attend church.

The United States became the freest country in the world, the sweet land of liberty, the recipient of the Statue of Liberty, the country whose flag freedom fighters around the world have often waved. This freedom was rooted in the deeply religious nature of its founding ideals. America was founded by God-centered individuals to be a God-centered country. The claims that America’s founders were mostly deists and that America was founded to be a godless secular society are not true.

The Couch Commando protests that “less Christian” is what Prager was aiming for (how that works given that Prager isn’t Christian, I’m not sure), but the kicker comes later in the piece.

The Founders linked freedom inextricably to God. That is why the inscription on the Liberty Bell is from the Bible: “Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land Unto All the Inhabitants thereof.” The verse comes from Leviticus, the third book of the Bible. The Founders knew their Bible. The present adult generation of Americans is more ignorant of the Bible than any in American history. And most young people know even less. I suspect that most students at Harvard could not identify Leviticus, let alone cite any of its verses.

The bell was named “the Liberty Bell” by the abolitionists. Their opposition to slavery was based entirely on the Bible. Their motivating principle, “All men are created equal,” came from the Bible. They did not get it from the ancient Greeks, who would have scoffed at such a notion.

Freedom permeates the Old Testament: The Bible begins with the story of Adam and Eve, a story about man’s assertion of his God-given freedom … freedom even to disobey God. The primary story of the Old Testament is the Exodus, a story about God liberating slaves.

For the Founders, the most obvious reason freedom was dependent on faith in God was that only if God is regarded as the source of freedom could men not rightfully take it away. If men are the source of the freedom, men can rightfully retract it. This is precisely what is happening today. Freedom is being destroyed primarily by those who scorn the idea that freedom comes from God.

For those among us who do not believe, this can be irritating as a concept, but is it really? That tyranny is a feature of man, not God, and that freedom does include the option to ignore God’s commands.

The rule that the end of religion means the end of freedom does not mean that secularism would not be a welcome replacement for totalitarian theocracies such as Iran. But eventually that, too — a secular Iran — would lead to tyranny. Wherever God is delinked from freedom, freedom ultimately withers. When Christianity died in Europe, it was replaced by fascism, Nazism and communism.

And in the United States, it was replaced with consumerism. In the spiritual realm, that is known as materialism.

This popped into my feed.

As did this:

Pope Benedict XVI@P_BenedictXVI·

Be afraid neither of the world, nor of the future, nor of your weakness. The Lord has allowed you to live in this moment of history so that, by your faith, his name will continue to resound throughout the world. — Benedict XVI

And here we are. Spiritual warfare. We’ve done this before:

Time to take it all back, and that’s for all people of faith.

Obligatory memes:

Remember this?

https://twitter.com/WhiteRabbitNN/status/1440415575595880451

Was someone trying to tell us something?

Have a good day y’all.

(I don’t remember who brought this to a daily in the comments, but thanks.)

And, of course, the obligatory George Carlin:

Per the Boss:

The common, used man beats the machine with the help of God.

And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:

Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.

Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone

Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.

Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.

Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out.

Auntie DePat’s requests as we are all, ahem, adults, not uncivilized pygmies:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

One other vital note:

Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.

Thanking everybody for your patience. Whether happenstance, coincidence, or enemy action, I’m dealing with some technical issues. In addition to those, and the obvious spiritual attacks, I am dealing with the obvious site stuff in what are best maintained as unobvious ways.

I suspect we struck a nerve.

A combined technical / spiritual / strategic response by all of us will prevent this attack from succeeding. Hold the line – bite the bullet – gird the loins – bite the lip – pray for guidance, discernment, and strength – whatever YOU believe keeps the ship aright for the moment. Everything else is lower priority.

In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.

This describes half the people in music I know.

Andrew Torba Stands Against Merkel Nazis

I was surprised and DELIGHTED to learn that Andrew Torba has decided to take a stand against German NAZI bullshit.

Torba Fights Back Against German Censorship, Refuses To Block Access To Gab Or Implement Speech Regulations

“Why should we block an entire country from accessing Gab because their government is sending us fines we won’t pay and veiled legal threats that mean nothing to Gab as a US corporation?”

Jack Hadfield

by

JACK HADFIELD

September 20, 2021

Andrew Torba, the CEO of Gab, has declared that he will neither restrict German IP addresses from his accessing his site, nor implement German censorship regulations, following a demand from the country’s government.

In a blog post, Torba, who has been running Gab since its inception in 2016, revealed that the free speech social network had received “a huge packet of documents with fines and legal threats” from German authorities, due to the fact that Gab has never enforced the country’s controversial Network Enforcement Act, known more commonly by the NetzDG acronym.

MORE…..

Andrew Torba had initially thought he would go along with the much more practical route of blocking German IP addresses. I was OK with that…. kind of….. but it BOTHERED ME.

Evidently, it bothered Torba, too. Enough that he changed his mind.

HALLELUJAH!!!

This is EXACTLY how to take a stand against GLOBONAZIS.

It is VERY instructive to read Andrew Torba’s open letter on his decision.

LINK: https://news.gab.com/2021/09/20/germany-wants-to-force-gab-to-censor-its-not-happening/

Please give that a click, although I am reproducing the letter here in its entirety for this site’s historical records.

This week we received a huge packet of documents with fines and legal threats from the nation state of Germany. Gab is refusing, and has refused for many years, to comply with the German Network Enforcement Act. Gab is a US company and as such we are under zero obligation to obey foreign laws from tyrannical governments.

For those unfamiliar, the Network Enforcement Act is a draconian German law aimed at combatting “fake news” on social networking websites. “Fake news” is of course, whatever the German Government says it is.

For example this week Facebook deleted 150 accounts belonging to an anti-lockdown movement in Germany, likely at the behest of the German government under the Network Enforcement Act.

Because of Gab’s unwillingness to participate in State-mandated censorship of free speech, the German government is now coming after our bootstrapped tech startup with heavy fines and other legal action.

Gab is not a lawless website. We work diligently to stop and prevent illegal activity from taking place on our platform. We have great relationships with many foreign countries who understand and respect our position on free speech and appreciate our zero tolerance for criminal activity. The German government isn’t concerned about any actual criminal activity, they are concerned with Thought Criminals who dare to dissent against their globalist regime.

According to our legal team, who has been working with us on this issue for several months, we have three choices.

  1. Obey German censorship laws and start censoring content that the German Government doesn’t like (this is not going to happen)
  2. Disobey German censorship laws and pick a fight with the nation state of Germany (I likely wouldn’t ever be able to leave the US again, they would come at us from every possible angle through state-sponsored deplatforming, heavy fines, they would possibly leverage contacts in the Biden Admin to come after Gab in other ways, and Lord knows what else.)
  3. Temporarily stop providing this service in Germany by blocking German IPs.

I hate everything about these choices, which is why we went public with this information to gather feedback and consensus from our community on the topic.

The overwhelming majority of people have been very supportive of the third option. Our lawyers are suggesting this option. Our community is suggesting this option. I’ve had many people email me and reach out privately to say that this is our best course of action. We seem to have a consensus.

Yet it doesn’t sit right with me.

Ultimately as the CEO of Gab I alone need to make this decision. These are the types of decisions that define a man and make history. If we block German IPs to appease the German government that sets a precedent that other countries will want to follow. We are not IP blocking ourselves into a corner here. If the German government wants to stop German IPs from accessing Gab they can block us themselves.

Why should we block an entire country from accessing Gab because their government is sending us fines we won’t pay and veiled legal threats that mean nothing to Gab as a US corporation? I won’t be able to travel to Europe anyway because I’m not getting injected with an experimental substance. On the bright side I now have a huge stack of kindling paper for my wood stove this winter.

The reality is the German government has zero authority or jurisdiction over how we operate Gab. We have no corporate entity in Germany, we have no employees in Germany, and we are not German citizens. We are Americans.

In America you play by our rules, we don’t play by yours. Germany is a guest in our community and they will respect our values and way of doing things, not the other way around. I have nothing but love for the German people and they too deserve the fundamental human right to speak freely on the internet.

Our mission is to defend free speech online for all people, everywhere. Including in Germany. We will continue to do that, regardless of any threats from foreign governments. If we bow to Germany today, what’s to stop us from bowing to literal tyrants, such as those in Russia (like Google and Apple did just last week) or China (as Apple has done for years)?

In matters pertaining to serious crime, German police forces already know how to reach us, as indeed they have done many times in the past. We will continue to respond to those requests and provide prompt assistance to those police forces on a voluntary basis. What we will not do is restrict access to, or remove, content which is legal in the United States on or from servers in the United States.

As I write this today is the day the American Constitution was signed over 234 years ago. We must stand up now to defend it and fight for the freedoms enshrined in it, which come from God, for all nations.

I’m not sure what will come of this decision, but I will not make an important choice like this from a position of fear. I leave the outcomes of this decision in the hands of God Almighty and I pray that the German people will take back their country and freedoms very soon.

Until then: wir werden nicht nachgeben, “Nuts!”. (we will not comply, Nuts!)

Christ without the cross is NOT Christianity – it’s what SATAN offers as a cowardly substitute.

So we are going to have to stand up, and it will mean CONTACT WITH THE ENEMY.

So be it!

Putting this here at 7:55 pm CDT. I hope it’s there when you view this post.

Let’s just get this out of the way.

Let’s see…about science as a religion….

Or maybe vaccines.

Seriously, this is the most schizophrenic disease epidemic ever.

Of course, this time around, the truth isn’t being reported at all, let alone on page twenty below the fold.

It’s not like some of this stuff hasn’t surfaced before.

Hopefully, exposure of corruption in the mainstream media leads here.

Oh, and for those wondering about the actors in the rubber masks idea:

Something to remember, always.

Per the boss’s instruction:

I’d throw in a few Rockefellers and Rothschilds also.

Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.

And now for some mood music:

Somehow, I missed this one performed in the Washington National Cathedral.

Your weekly reminder to take the pledge, and if the non-mainstream people are to be believed, including Lin Wood, we will need to take this seriously very soon:

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”

New message from General Flynn

@RealGenFlynn

Be fearless and don’t wait for the next superstar to stand up and fight back against this health tyranny…each of us has our own inner strength to take the harder right path. In your communities, at your local city council meetings, school board hearings, zoning board meetings, everywhere elected officials reside, we should be in there ensuring they are doing what we the people voted for them to do. Get involved now, no more waiting for someone else to do it…it is our time, our moment in history and our obligation to the next generation and the one after that…Local Action has a National Impact 

And now for the nitty gritty of the Q Tree 5 minute, stand up, Tuesday morning meeting version of the Daily Thread.

Ahem.

Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And Auntie DePat’s requests as we are all, ahem, allegedly adults:

If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

Yesterday was the feast of the Korean Martyrs. There are two options for readings, and some are appropriate here:

LUKE 8:16-18

16“No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, that those who enter may see the light. 17For nothing is hid that shall not be made manifest, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come to light. 18Take heed then how you hear; for to him who has will more be given, and from him who has not, even what he thinks that he has will be taken away.”

WISDOM 3:1-9

1But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them. 2In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was thought to be an affliction, 3and their going from us to be their destruction; but they are at peace. 4For though in the sight of men they were punished, their hope is full of immortality. 5Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them and found them worthy of himself; 6like gold in the furnace he tried them, and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them. 7In the time of their visitation they will shine forth, and will run like sparks through the stubble. 8They will govern nations and rule over peoples, and the Lord will reign over them for ever. 9Those who trust in him will understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are upon his elect, and he watches over his holy ones.

LUKE 9:23-26

23And he said to all, “If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. 24For whoever would save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake, he will save it. 25For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself? 26For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

And, actually two from today’s Mass readings.

EPHESIANS 4:1-7, 11-13

1I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2with all lowliness and meekness, with patience, forbearing one another in love, 3eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call, 5one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6one God and Father of us all, who is above all and through all and in all. 7But grace was given to each of us according to the measure of Christ’s gift. 11And his gifts were that some should be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, 12to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 13until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ;

MATTHEW 9:9-13

9As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him. 10And as he sat at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples. 11And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12But when he heard it, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 13Go and learn what this means, `I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

>>148156518
Amen brother.
Q

As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome. Via con Dios.

BTW:

This is what passes for satire in the blue pilled world. Just wait until they find out we’ve been right all along. (And trying to sing phrases that long without a catch breath is not for amateurs.)
