“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
A great day to celebrate friends – another victory in the war against Fake News!
There’s so much I could say, but it’s better to let the videos speak for themselves.
First, James O’Keefe drops the mic on CNN in a HUGE way…
Then the Tapes start to Drop…
There so much here I won’t even try to unpack it all. The ridiculousness of comparing the presumed Trump-Biden transition to 9/11 is rich, given that all CNN cared about in the Obama-Trump transition was “Russia Russia Russia” and nothing of genuine NATSEC threats!
And James O’Keef on the Right-Wing Mark Levin Show (apparently his first name is “Right-Wing” and not “Mark,” who knew?)
Today we have some more Videos Drop… starting with actual proof of what we already knew, that CNN was carrying the water protecting Hunter Biden…
CNN Execs SPIKE COVERAGE Of New York Post Hunter Biden Laptop Bombshell:
Next comes this exposure of outrageous comments by Cynthia Hudson…
CNN Senior Vice President Cynthia Hudson TERRIFIED That Cubans Support Trump; “Attracted to bullies”
…and a third recording of Jeff Zucker directly:
Jeff Zucker Labels Donald Trump A Bigger Threat To National Security Than Voter Fraud
None of this is really that revelatory to Qtree readers, other than of course having smoking gun evidence of things we’ve known all along. Howard Beale fans knew this a long time ago:
Now that the realities of just how crooked the election system is in this country is all coming out in the open no matter how hard the dinosaur legacy media tries to hide it and insist that the 2020 presidential contest went to a man who couldn’t fill a McDonald’s dining room, it’s worth the reminder that we – the ones who long ago recognized we were being lied to – are not the target of all the gaslighting efforts.
The ‘blue checkmark’ FAKE NEWS Twitter personalities are out in full-force today attempting to push another FALSE narrative that arrests were supposed to occur today. Controlled Narrative? #FactsMatter How much attention does “Q” receive from the FAKE NEWS MEDIA? Why are they working so hard to try and discredit something they label as a “FAKE CONSPIRACY.” People awake are what they FEAR THE MOST. LOSS OF CONTROL THE GREAT AWAKENING. WWG1WGA!!! Q
Worth repeating. MSDNC pushes coordinated FAKE, FALSE, MISLEADING DISINFORMATION based on a biased [D] political viewpoint [controlled mouthpiece(s)]. Blue checkmarks then defend and attack [target] opposing viewpoints using slander, aggression, suppression, group-think, etc. [suppression tactics]. Non-blue checkmarks then defend and promote attacker(s) [blues] viewpoint(s) [leftwing ‘cult’] to instill echo_chamber wall-to-wall amplified narrative for each designated subject. Select [public discovery] topics are deemed and ranked in priority order [ranking determines use of assets [big-to-small]]. [How to herd the sheep (you) 101] If you do not follow [remain in-line] with their political viewpoints you are deliberately made to feel in the minority [isolated] and inferior [using aggression-slander]. [If majority thinks x then x must be true _projected false reality _minority projected as majority using news _ social media platforms to spotlight designated viewpoints [the ‘narrative’]]. A public (person) that thinks for themselves [independent free-thought] is what they FEAR the most [loss of control]. Q
Your ability to spread information across the digital battlefield and bypass their control is what they fear [narrative failure] and why they are doing everything in their power to disrupt [false labeling [daily attacks], censorship, termination, gov hearings > foundation to term/censor, etc]. Keep charging, Midnight Riders! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ci0Kgdpgsw Information Warfare. Hunters become the Hunted. Q
To be blunt, the normies out there have to be feeling a lot like one of our own:
Please don’t flame me. We are all frustrated. It’s just that with information over-load, the masses (myself included) easily get confused and tune out. To re-iterate, it is my opinion that the Trump legal team should be laser focused on presenting only a few very large areas of concerns. Keep it simple.
((That’s not saying that Trump’s team shouldn’t be pursuing ALL avenues of reports of fraud, even the small potatoes. But, don’t dilute the public MESSAGE… Rather, focus on a few major bullets. One powerpoint slide for now…))
Anyhow, just my frustrated two cents.
Well…President Trump had something to say about that. Here is his speech from yesterday in case you missed it. One of the most important speeches in the history of the Republic.
(H/T FG&C and MAGA Mom for posting the full video)
This exercise we are witnessing is about helping people like Chimpy and one woman I know who is hopelessly confused on how the Electoral College works. It is not about us. We’re just here to be shepherds and life guards for those joining us in understanding that the people who control the flow of information have been lying to the people for well over a century for their own gain.
In that spirit, today’s dance piece is one near and dear to my heart.
(No zs or ys…the name is spelled correctly for once….)
Please, add your own dance favorites in the comments.
_______________________________________________
As usual, this is the daily thread, the place to put all information that needs to be out there – Q drops, Q drop decodes, riot information, news flashes, Chy-na flu updates, fashionable mask photos, satire, memes, and of course cute animal videos.
In the meantime, the short and sweet version of “THE RULES” is here borrowed from Tuesday:
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.
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:
No food fights…unless it involves cheese in a can
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
Since it is almost the weekend, the reminders are in place to not swing from the chandeliers, wash your hands and face, and be nice to the liberals whether they deserve it or not. Making your bed, OTOH, is optional.
21“Not every one who says to me, `Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 24“Every one then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rock; 25and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26And every one who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house upon the sand; 27and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell; and great was the fall of it.”
The old site (wqth.wordpress.com) remains up, with a “GO TO THE NEW SITE” message at the top, but has been closed to comments, and will be decommissioned later, at some future date and time.

JetPack News
You know the little bell at the right end of the black bar from WordPress? The one that gives you notifications about likes and replies to your comments? The one that makes it very easy to have a conversation with somebody – or to check if people have replied to your comments?
That “bell notifier” is powered by a plugin called JetPack, from WordPress.com (DOT COM). While we are moving OFF WP.com, we are still using both WordPress itself, from WordPress.org (DOT ORG), and the JetPack plugin (free version).
If you want those notifications, you have to allow WP.com to link to your account here using JetPack. I have done everything I can in settings to make that simple yet reliable, based on our early testing of the new site.
If you want to get “bell notifications” for posts here, you just need to do the following:
WHITELIST this site, or allow it to use ALL COOKIES, particularly for wordpress.com
Be sure to have your browser remember your login username and password
Find JetPack in your SETTINGS, and LINK TO WORDPRESS.COM
If your first comment gets moderated, wait for approval, then try another comment
Get my attention if you have problems. Others may offer some help.
If you have done all this correctly, you will start seeing “bell notifications” of replies to any comments on this site.
Right now, 23 of our 56 registered users have JetPack notifications working!
There is another notifier on any page with comments – the “green circle with orange numbers”. That is a “new comment” notifier in wpDiscuz, the commenting plugin. That plugin is separate from JetPack, even though the two plugins both handle the same comment data. Likes in JetPack are not reflected in the “+1 / -1”, like / dislike system in wpDiscuz.
I will discuss the wpDiscuz plugin more later.

We seem to have settled on a new comment layout manager, known simply as [COUGH] “Number Two”. This one has nice vertical lines to show indentation, but it also has fairly wide text. We were using “Number One” at first.
More Information: https://wpdiscuz.com/docs/wpdiscuz-7/customization/comment-layouts/
Number 1
Number 2
Number 3
We have CHANGED the voting method from “up/down” to “standard likes”. That was a fairly easy decision by our members!
We have also ENLARGED THE FONT and MADE IT BLACK – this got almost entirely POSITIVE response.
There will be more technical discussions – stay tuned!
No matter that it seems like we’re waiting on President Trump, or Sidney Powell or Lin Wood or AG Barr or the Federal and Supreme Courts . . . or whoever . . . we’re really waiting for God, the LORD, to show his power in righting the wrong that has become or Presidential election.
So far, I have a good deal of confidence in President Trump, a fair amount in Attorneys Powell and Wood, but less in AG Barr.
But, I must, we must, hold total confidence in God in this matter. We know God put President Trump and others in positions of authority for His purposes. We know God is omniscient and omnipotent and that His plan is perfect, ultimately working for the good of those who love Him.
Now, here’s the rub. We also know that God’s ways are not our ways and that we have no hope of understanding His specific plans for our future. We must, however, hold our faith in God and wait for Him . . . and pray.
We have no other choice.
Psalm 130
1 Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord; 2 Lord, hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.
3 If You, Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? 4 But there is forgiveness with You, That You may be feared.
5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, And in His word I do hope. 6 My soul waits for the Lord More than those who watch for the morning— Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.
7 O Israel, hope in the Lord; For with the Lord there is mercy, And with Him is abundant redemption. 8 And He shall redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
Psalm 27
1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? 2 When the wicked came against me To eat up my flesh, My enemies and foes, They stumbled and fell. 3 Though an army may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me, In this I will be confident.
4 One thing I have desired of the Lord, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the Lord, And to inquire in His temple. 5 For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.
6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me. 8 When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.” 9 Do not hide Your face from me; Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not leave me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation. 10 When my father and my mother forsake me, Then the Lord will take care of me.
11 Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies. 12 Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence. 13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.
14 Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!
Never Be Discouraged There is really nothing we need to know or even try to understand. If we refuse to be discouraged and trust God’s guiding hand. So take heart and meet each minute with faith in God’s great love, Aware that every day of life is controlled by God above… And never dread tomorrow or what the future brings, Just pray for strength and courage and trust God in all things. And never grow discouraged be patient and just wait for “God never comes too early and He never comes too late!” Helen Steiner Rice
Patience Most of the battles of life are won By looking beyond the clouds to the sun And having the patience to wait for the day When the sun comes out and the clouds float away Helen Steiner Rice
Since Attorney General Barr is being dragged through the ringer all over the internet, maybe some people who have been known to break it down might calm a few trigger fingers and pushes to the front of the queue.
If We the People really are going to DO SOMETHING, this might me it:
As Law Abiding Tax Paying Citizens of the United States Of America, we DEMAND a Full Forensic Audit of every State, every Machine, every Internet Connection, every Ballot, every Signature.
Each State should be made to prove that they did not defraud their citizens or the system!
It’s not just the swing states. It’s the whole system top to bottom, sort of like being run by the MOB.
And yes, I know this is about the IRS, etc., but demanding action from people who are following their actual role in this production…here’s one of Ennio Morricone’s less considered scores:
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:
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
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.
A few other vital notes:
Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.
29And Jesus went on from there and passed along the Sea of Galilee. And he went up on the mountain, and sat down there. 30And great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the maimed, the blind, the dumb, and many others, and they put them at his feet, and he healed them, 31so that the throng wondered, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel. 32Then Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days, and have nothing to eat; and I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.” 33And the disciples said to him, “Where are we to get bread enough in the desert to feed so great a crowd?” 34And Jesus said to them, “How many loaves have you?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.” 35And commanding the crowd to sit down on the ground, 36he took the seven loaves and the fish, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. 37And they all ate and were satisfied; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces left over.
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, members of the Cabinet, first responders and those working behind the scenes.
And please add all the legal teams as they take our fight to court.
OK – here is an update on the new site. I’m putting it here ON the new site, so people can start getting used to commenting over here.
I have decided to go for SMOOTHNESS OF TRANSITION rather than CLEAN FAST BREAK.
PATIENCE. It’s a virtue.
Most of the posts transferred. We only have about a week at the end of November, plus whatever days in December before we move, to be moved later. Almost all our images have transferred. If we’re not OCD and/or perfectionist about things, the copying of the sites has been 99.9% successful.
On the PLUS side, we can use more modern commenting systems that use modern technologies like REST and AJAX to avoid reloading entire pages for EVERY SINGLE COMMENT. In particular, we are now using the wpDiscuz plugin, which is a bit like Discus for WordPress.
The main NEGATIVE, however, is that we are having a LOT of trouble getting comments to integrate with the WordPress-dot-com notification system which is part of their “JetPack” – what most of us refer to as “The Bell” or “The Bell Icon”, located in the “WordPress.com Menu Bar” – a.k.a. “The Black Band”.
While I was able to get SOME notifications about replies on the new site to propagate in the “bell notification system”, most people saw either spotty or no performance this way. This may be a function of whether individuals have properly identified themselves to JetPack on the new site – something that is frankly too tenuous to be trusted. We cannot count on this to communicate.
Bottom line – we no longer have “bell icon notifications” on this site. I will keep trying to get them, but they’re not likely to happen soon.
I do have some good workarounds that I’ve been using. The WordPress-dot-com comment page is actually a pretty good ticker of posts as they are happening. I’m not sure if everybody can see it, or how much they can see, but it may be a start.
I did get the “Home” and “Contact” links to appear in the top menu. See above!
I will have the sidebar updated to match – ROUGHLY – the sidebar on the old site, very soon.
All our categories and key words transferred. All our old comments. I *MAY* lock the older posts, but not yet committed to this. WordPress has a setting for closing commenting after 14 days. It’s something I plan to consider.
During testing, we ran into some interesting capacity for EDITING OF COMMENTS that looked like a bug. Turns out that this capability has always been there for AUTHORS on their own posts. Daughn actually found and used this capability to deal with a flame war on one of her posts, once, in the early days of this blog. Otherwise, she followed my preferred practice of NOT editing things, but rather letting the record stand – 100% sunlight – no deletions except under extreme circumstances – KEEP THE EVIDENCE – DON’T DESTROY IT.
This is why we count on authors to show EXTREME integrity, and not everybody is an author here!
Now – one more point.
What would you think about actually becoming a FORUM? Or just ADDING ONE?
I found a plugin that we may REALLY like. It is a plugin for WordPress that creates a FORUM.
SO – if we wanted to actually become a FORUM – we could do it. We could even ease into it, by keeping our current model, but creating a “forum next door” with a link on our main page.
Something to think about.
Bottom line – there are MANY possibilities awaiting us. My first step is simply to get the new house ready for occupancy! From there – who knows?
Have a great week!

As the hearings in state legislatures continue regarding the election counts, this about sums it up:
Thank you, Arizona secretary of state. You just helped make Rudy Giuliani's claim of election fraud by certifying the election during the hearing on election fraud. You just lied to the United States of America. That's a federal crime. You screwed up big time.
After listening to the AZ hearing for the majority of the day, it's very easy to see why the "governments" do not want to open up Pandora's Box. If you follow the bread crumbs, it becomes abundantly clear that most of our governments (local, state, and federal) are illegitimate.
There are some bright spots in the political landscape right now, though. Just in case you haven’t seen what Mrs. Trump did in the White House this year:
In the end, this is what we need to remember right now:
Just something a little different this week as the President’s Own Marine Band has been on a chamber music kick:
Oh, to be in the room while that is being played.
And a reminder to take the pledge:
“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.”
And now for the nitty gritty of the Q Tree 5 minute, stand up, Tuesday morning meeting version of the Daily Thread.
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 with anyone who happens to still be hanging out there.
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.

1There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch shall grow out of his roots. 2And the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD. 3And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD. He shall not judge by what his eyes see, or decide by what his ears hear; 4but with righteousness he shall judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he shall slay the wicked. 5Righteousness shall be the girdle of his waist, and faithfulness the girdle of his loins. 6The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid, and the calf and the lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them. 7The cow and the bear shall feed; their young shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. 8The sucking child shall play over the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den. 9They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea. 10In that day the root of Jesse shall stand as an ensign to the peoples; him shall the nations seek, and his dwellings shall be glorious.
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome. Via con Dios.
