Stripping Away the Veils Sunday

A conversation yesterday on the Open Thread turned to observations on how America ended up where we find ourselves today. A faint shadow of the free people we became after throwing off the shackles of Britain and pioneering a new life in the New World.

We appear to have just avoided a point of no return outcome and now must not only fight out way back but engineer the safeguards to preserve that hard won place of restored freedom.

Most people do not understand the true nature of conspiracy. They will think “everybody knows everything, or nobody knew anything”. They have been made to think like CHILDREN by the Cabal.
— from comment where Wolfmoon points out we have been blinded.

The reply from Kalbo summed up so many important points, I’m quoting it all.

It’s a whole new paradigm being exposed, or some better word…perhaps as simple as TRUTH coming to LIGHT for all to see.
At the behest of Globalists, politicos with their adoring MCM have been feeding everyone well orchestrated BS for decades.
President Trump was drafted expressly to end the US’ slide into oblivion…but a memory or footnote in history.
MCM, Globalists, Uniparty knew this and tried to sabotage his campaign, and Presidency. Pure lies foisted on us from the highest levels. Truth comes out. MCM and Uniparty BUSTED. Half of America, seemingly shocked. But they now know the truth about muh Russia.
For three years President Trump has been extolling the sheer ignorance of trade deals forced on us by crooked complicit Presidents – Papa Bush, Slick Willy, Baby Bush, and hussein. President Trump blatantly calls out the STUPIDITY of trade agreements and climate BS…
The truth is obvious, we were sold a line of sh!t. And America was taking it all as gospel. America was sliding away…there is no magic wand, no more manufacturing, we’ll be a service economy…
Wars are not necessary to win. The US does not need to interfere militarily around the globe to gain positive results. Let countries take ownership and their fix their own issues to secure their future. Allow regional countries to leverage their influence.
MIC has been exposed and has lost great influence. Thankfully no name is toast. MS Lindsey and her ilk are throttled back a bit. No longer is the US footing the massive defense bill for countries we protect.
Globally, the US has the greatest leverage of all. Economic. President Trump is wielding that economic club with brilliance and precision. Winning across the spectrum of of the economy and broader issues.
More Internationally, countries around the globe are waking up to Nationalism and associated pride. Driving their focus to their roots. US, Britain, Australia, Italy… Many, many more countries. Nationalism is contagious.
The EU is thankfully disintegrating. Germany will be cast aside for the damage they’ve inflicted. France is waking up.
Inquiring minds may wonder…back home.
With all of the economic winning, in every category, why has the MCM not trumpeted (no pun intended), how utterly stupid and destructive trade agreements were. America First is the obvious answer.
Economic leverage the obvious answer to encourage other countries to behave, be fair…
MIC destroys lives, countries and is a perpetual self licking ice cream come of destruction.
— Reply to Wolfmoon by Kalbo

The warning could not be more emphatic.

BEWARE THE SIGNS OF BEING MADE INTO AN UNTHINKING PATRIOT BY FAKE NEWS. THEY DID IT BEFORE – THEY WILL TRY IT AGAIN.
— from comment where Wolfmoon describes how our pride was used to blind us.

We must not miss this warning!

“See to it that no one takes you captive
through philosophy and empty deception [pseudo-intellectual babble],
according to the tradition [and musings] of mere men,
following the elementary principles of this world,
rather than following [the truth—the teachings of] Christ.“

Colossians 2:8, AMP

3 monkeys. See no evil. Hear no evil. Say no evil.

“‘And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil.“

Matthew 6:13

Our protection against deception is to ruthlessly reject any and everything that is not 100% true. No matter who says it. Not even our favorite Christian leader. Not even our favorite governmental leader.
It’s something you set your mind to be. Choose to love the truth even when it leads where you do not want to go.

Dear Lord, I say yes, strip away the veils over my eyes. I say yes, grant me the grace to see with Your eyes all that is truly around me. I say yes, draw me ever more deeply into Your truth every day. In Christ’s Name. Amen.

When we choose to open our eyes and see the reality around us we will not be popular. It may become uncomfortable to be around us–even when we don’t open our mouths. And I say, bring it on.

Safety & Security Sunday

While our Lion, President Donald J. Trump, fights for our safety and security here at home, the very same media that was fully outraged by (maybe) shootings in mosques in New Zealand is giving absolutely zero coverage of oppression on a scale we may find difficult to comprehend.

New Attack in Burkina Faso—Christians in Hiding, Schools and Churches Closed

A day after militants ambushed a church and killed six, another attack in northern Burkina Faso targeting Christians has left four dead, including a church leader. These attacks on the church in the West African country, as well as others in the last few weeks, have invoked a state of panic among Christian communities in the region.
:
In the last 12 months, the increasing violence across Mali and Niger, as well as Burkina Faso, has led to a five-fold rise in the displacement of the local population. More than 330,000 people have left their homes, in addition to 100,000 refugees —creating what some news outlets have called an “unexpected humanitarian crisis.”

What a marvelous mystery.  How can it be, for those who believe, that both our Nation’s security and the horrors endured by the persecuted church around the world, the path from darkness to light is the same? Prayer. Turning our hearts to God to find the courage to live true to our convictions and His leading.

“They called the apostles in, had them whipped, and ordered them never again to speak in the name of Jesus; and then they set them free. As the apostles left the Council, they were happy, because God had considered them worthy to suffer disgrace for the sake of Jesus.”

Acts 5:40-41

For the first couple hundred years of the Church the persecution was intense. There were no “career clergy” looking for a comfortable job with nice benefits. In fact, those dedicated to obedience to Christ in a leadership role were the first to be arrested. To be physically harmed. To be killed.

And so it is to this day in most of the world we live in. Even in America those who live by their convictions are the first to discover the cost of standing by them. And so we come back to our courageous world-changer President, Donald J. Trump.

He stands tall and fights even when he knows it’s placed him in danger of experiencing all of the above. Thank God for this man who lives by his convictions and is not afraid to enter into the battle space we find ourselves in.

Not only to fight, but to WIN a victory we all need dearly.

Here is the EO itself:

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,

I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, find that foreign adversaries are increasingly creating and exploiting vulnerabilities in information and communications technology and services, which store and communicate vast amounts of sensitive information, facilitate the digital economy, and support critical infrastructure and vital emergency services, in order to commit malicious cyber-enabled actions, including economic and industrial espionage against the United States and its people.  I further find that the unrestricted acquisition or use in the United States of information and communications technology or services designed, developed, manufactured, or supplied by persons owned by, controlled by, or subject to the jurisdiction or direction of foreign adversaries augments the ability of foreign adversaries to create and exploit vulnerabilities in information and communications technology or services, with potentially catastrophic effects, and thereby constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States.  This threat exists both in the case of individual acquisitions or uses of such technology or services, and when acquisitions or uses of such technologies are considered as a class.  Although maintaining an open investment climate in information and communications technology, and in the United States economy more generally, is important for the overall growth and prosperity of the United States, such openness must be balanced by the need to protect our country against critical national security threats.  To deal with this threat, additional steps are required to protect the security, integrity, and reliability of information and communications technology and services provided and used in the United States.  In light of these findings, I hereby declare a national emergency with respect to this threat.

Accordingly, it is hereby ordered as follows: (see link below)

Stormy Sunday!

And yet very MOTHERLY MOTHER’s DAY

While the focus here may be on volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, and weaponized weather, there is a cozy place to go where reflections on the incredible mothers and other significant women in our lives has been launched by none other than our own amazing Daughnworks247.
Join in the fun here: Happy Mother’s Day to Doctor Lynn and Miss Lily.

What in the World is Going On?

For many decades the U.S. Military has been seeking to understand how to weaponize the weather. A paper written in 1995, Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the Weather in 2025, stated this in the abstract:

In 2025, US aerospace forces can ‘own the weather‘ by capitalizing on emerging technologies and focusing development of those technologies to war fighting applications. Such a capability offers the war fighter tools to shape the battlespace in ways never before possible. It provides opportunities to impact operations across the full spectrum of conflict and is pertinent to all possible futures. The purpose of this paper is to outline a strategy for the use of a future weather modification system to achieve military objectives rather than to provide a detailed technical road map.

A high risk, high reward endeavor, weather modification offers a dilemma not unlike the splitting of the atom While some segments of society will always be reluctant to examine controversial issues such as weather modification, the tremendous military capabilities that could result from this field are ignored at our own peril. From enhancing friendly operations or disrupting those of the enemy via small scale tailoring of natural weather patterns to complete dominance of global communications and counterspace control, weather modification offers the war fighter a wide range of possible options to defeat or coerce an adversary. …

Technology advancements in five major areas are necessary for an integrated weather modification capability: (1) advanced nonlinear modeling techniques, (2) computational capability, (3) information gathering and transmission, (4) a global sensor array, and (5) weather intervention techniques. Some intervention tools exist today and others may be developed and refined in the future.

It would be wise to keep our hearts prayerful concerning our world’s weather. Since the election of President Donald J. Trump, we have seen some extreme and even bizarre hurricanes, wildfires, and other phenomena that one can only hope were not expressions of unconventional and unusual covert warfare.

Psalm 29

Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)
A psalm of David:

Give Adonai his due, you who are godly;
give Adonai his due of glory and strength;
give Adonai the glory due his name;
worship Adonai in holy splendor.

The voice of Adonai is over the waters;
the God of glory thunders,
Adonai over rushing waters,
the voice of Adonai in power,
the voice of Adonai in splendor.

The voice of Adonai cracks the cedars;
Adonai splinters the cedars of the L’vanon
and makes the L’vanon skip like a calf,
Siryon like a young wild ox.


The voice of Adonai flashes fiery flames;
the voice of Adonai rocks the desert,
Adonai convulses the Kadesh Desert.
The voice of Adonai causes deer to give birth
and strips the forests bare —
while in his temple, all cry, “Glory!”

Adonai sits enthroned above the flood!
Adonai sits enthroned as king forever!

May Adonai give strength to his people!
May Adonai bless his people with shalom!

What Does This Mean?

Earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis and extreme weather have always been given spiritual meaning by those affected by them. These forces, when experienced up close and personal have a way of bringing into clarity how very small we are.

And that is just about the time we begin to look beyond ourselves for something bigger, anything that can help us give meaning to our suffering and regain some sense of safety.

Revelation 16:17-21

The Message (MSG)

The seventh Angel poured his bowl into the air: From the Throne in the Temple came a shout, “Done!” followed by lightning flashes and shouts, thunder crashes and a colossal earthquake—a huge and devastating earthquake, never an earthquake like it since time began. The Great City split three ways, the cities of the nations toppled to ruin. Great Babylon had to drink the wine of God’s raging anger—God remembered to give her the cup! Every island fled and not a mountain was to be found. Hailstones weighing a ton plummeted, crushing and smashing men and women as they cursed God for the hail, the epic disaster of hail.

Not even insurance contracts are atheistic with their “Acts of God” exemption clauses. Right or wrong, is it any wonder that we blame God?

But things are likely far more nuanced than this simplistic perspective. There is also a reason for “Acts of War” exemption clauses and a reason why warfighters talk about collateral damage.

definition of collateral damage

A quick search at Qmap.pub on the keyword, “weather” appears to only have 3 hits, and most likely for all three the term weather is a euphemism for warfare activity. However, it would be interesting to review the weather conditions following this post last June.
Qmap.pub post 1448

What Then Should We Do?

Earth phenomena intrudes on the “just and the unjust alike.” May I propose that for those of us that are drawn to pray for peace for the people of the earth–especially in the context of earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, extreme weather and related phenomena–that we learn to discern not only God’s heart, but also utilize available research material to develop our awareness of what is going on and how it all might be connected.
Image of slide showing 2 photos of toridal fields lines around a sun and a planet.
There is a large body of scientific work available for the curious mind–thanks to the internet–that past generations would never have had access to. And some citizen-analysts have used that access to not only become deeply informed, but to develop astute alternative working hypothesis about how things work, along with new predictive models. And–based on the push back–public access to their work might even be a threat to the controllers of the world.
As a prime example, may I recommend DutchSinse for not only big-picture, earth movement observations in near real-time, but also for his highly informed analysis.
https://twitter.com/dutchsinse/status/1125425034724556800
For almost a decade now Dutch has been finding correlations between not only solar activity and deep earthquakes, but earth movements and major wildfire activity, and also how deep earth movements lead to surface earthquakes with strong predictability, especially where there are breaks in the earth’s crust. He also gives basic disaster preparedness tips near the end of most of his videos. I find his passion for educating others along with his passion for accurate reporting of sensor data both engaging and entertaining.
If you would like to sample his work without taking up an hour or more for an entire video, the 8:30 min point on this May 6 video is a good place to start. Also, don’t forget, you can use the settings gear to change the playback speed to 1.5x (or higher). I often run his videos to the side of my main work so I can pay attention when I catch him saying something new or interesting about our earth’s current activity.

Apparently his observations make some of the FAKE SCIENCE shills uncomfortable. He’s had the typical harassment we have been seeing so frequently online including the demonitization of his YouTube channel.
I wonder who would NOT want us pray with understanding about what’s happening in and around our planet?

The shooting at the synagogue in Poway has interesting details
that we might want to keep discussing as we ponder
the aims, successes, and yes, failures of the puppet masters
behind these despicable attacks.

Synagogue First Responder

Combat Vet Who Stopped The Synagogue Shooter: ‘I Scared The Hell Out Of Him’

Rachel Stoltzfoos | Staff Reporter at DailyCaller.com

The man who fired a semi-automatic weapon inside the Chabad of Poway synagogue in San Diego on Saturday froze, dropped his gun and sprinted to his car when he saw Oscar Stewart come barreling toward him, yelling so loud the priest at a neighboring church could hear.

“Get down!” Stewart yelled, according to his wife and others who were at the scene. “You motherfucker! I’m going to kill you!”

Others who were there later told him it sounded like four or five people were shouting. He thinks maybe an angel was standing behind him and speaking through his voice. When the shooter ran, he immediately gave chase.

Stewart, 51, told The Daily Caller on Sunday he doesn’t remember any conscious thought from the moment he heard the gun shots until it was all over — he just acted on instinct to stop the shooter and prevent him from leaving so he couldn’t hurt more people somewhere else. The Iraq combat veteran said his military training kicked in.

“I knew I had to be within five feet of this guy so his rifle couldn’t get to me,” Stewart said. “So I ran immediately toward him, and I yelled as loud as I could. And he was scared. I scared the hell out of him.”

Stewart served in the Navy in explosive ordnance disposal from 1990 to 1994, then enlisted in the Army in 2001 because of the Sept. 11 terror attacks.

“Looking back, it was kind of a crazy idea to do, but I did it.” He was deployed to Iraq in 2003 and left the military in 2004, as a staff sergeant. He’s now in construction work.

When the gunman opened fire, he was in the back of the synagogue. By the time he got to the lobby, the shooter had killed one woman, blown the finger off of a rabbi, and injured two others.

“I heard gunshots,” Stewart said. “And everybody got up and started trying to get out the back door, so I — for whatever reason — I didn’t do that. I ran the other way. I ran towards the gun shots.”

“When I came around the corner into the lobby area, I saw the individual with a gun, and he fired two rounds. And I yelled at him and I must have yelled very loud, and he looked at me, and I must have had a really mean look on my face or something, because he immediately dropped his weapon and turned and ran. And then I gave chase.”

Stewart said he chased him all the way out to his car and began pounding on it — the shooter had managed to lock himself in. When Stewart saw him reach for a rifle, he punched the side of the car as hard as he could, intending to figure out a way to drag him out of the car. That’s when a Border Patrol agent who attends the synagogue came running out to the parking lot, yelling for Stewart to get down because he had a gun.

Stewart says this man may have saved his life and pointed to his use of a civilian’s gun as evidence that gun control isn’t the answer to these kinds of tragedies. Stewart was off-duty and was apparently handed the weapon by someone else on the scene.

“It takes a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun,” he told the Caller.

The agent fired several rounds into the lower part of the vehicle, intending to disable it, but the shooter managed to drive away. The two of them then grabbed a phone from someone and called the police to report his license plate. The shooter later turned himself in.

After he sped off, Stewart ran back into the synagogue and found a woman he knew, 60-year-old Lori Gilbert Kaye, unresponsive on the floor in the lobby. He began CPR and continued trying to bring her back to life as a couple of doctors arrived and began to assist him. She didn’t make it. The two had talked occasionally, and he remembers her as a passionate and kind woman.

“She had different political views, so we had interesting discussions when we talked,” he said. “We didn’t just talk about the weather. It was kind of cool. She was a very loving woman.”

Stewart considers her the real hero. Eyewitnesses said she jumped in front of the rabbi to save his life.

“People in the aftermath here have been saying it’s important to be strong and defend ourselves. I also think it’s important to know that being strong and defending ourselves requires a lot of sacrifice too.”

“I don’t know if I consciously made the choice to potentially sacrifice myself,” he added. “But I did. And this lady, she stood and she jumped in front of the shooter and she saved the rabbi’s life. When somebody said I was a hero, I’m like, she was a hero. I just did it instinctively, like an animal. There was no conscious decision. I just did it.”

He may not call himself a hero, but Stewart believes his actions effectively stopped the shooter. He doesn’t think reports of the shooter’s gun jamming as the reason he fled are likely to be true, because he was using a semi-automatic rifle. “Full automatic weapons will jam,” he said. “Semi-automatic weapons do not jam.” He thinks maybe the shooter had emptied his magazine. Whatever the case, the shooter let the slung weapon drop and fled.

“He was in the act of shooting when I saw him,” Stewart said. “When I yelled at him he turned and looked at me, and he like froze. And then the look on his face was one of amazement at first, and then one of fear. He saw me coming, and I was ready to do whatever I had to do to stop him.”

For his part, Stewart doesn’t attribute the shooter’s actions to a larger agenda and was reluctant to connect him to a larger political context. He doesn’t blame President Donald Trump and expressed hope that people don’t try to blame anyone else for the man’s actions. “He was an individual acting alone,” he said.

“If you’re ignorant and you don’t know what people are like, you don’t know that I’m a person just like you. I go to work every day in a manual labor job. I’m not some, you know – supposedly he said in his manifesto that the Jews control this and that — I don’t control anything. I go to work just like you every day. He didn’t know that.”

“If he had gotten to know me, he would know that I’m a great person, that I’m a nice guy, that I’m a very caring person,” he continued. “My apprentices — they all love me. They say that I’m the best teacher in the world, you know, that I care, that I try to teach them, and if he had known any of these people, like the lady Lori who died. She would go give Easter baskets to kids and that’s not even a Jewish thing, you know. … She was just a warm person.”

If anything’s to blame, he says it’s social media and the increasingly disconnected world we find ourselves in. “The whole media thing — people don’t get to know people, and they get to sit in a cocoon, and sit and make opinions on what somebody writes. It’s not good. We need to interact more.”

“The most important thing I want to share is that we need to know each other,” he said. “If you make an opinion on anyone, you need to know what they’re about, and who they are. You can’t generalize and say every blue person is evil because they’re blue. That’s ridiculous.”

The funeral service for Kaye is on Monday. He expects the synagogue will be totally packed.

POWAY, California — Jonathan Morales, an armed off-duty US Customs and Border Patrol agent who recently discovered his Jewish roots, was among the worshipers at Chabad of Poway on Saturday when John Earnest entered the synagogue near San Diego during Passover services and began shooting.
The 19-year-old gunman killed Lori Gilbert-Kaye, 60, and wounded three people: Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, 8-year-old Noya Dahan and her uncle, Almog Peretz.
“Morales recently discovered his Jewish roots. He would travel three and a half hours from [the California town of] El Centro to pray with us at our shul,” Goldstein told media at a Sunday press conference outside the synagogue. “He felt this was his house of worship. And many times I said, ‘Jonathan, you work for the border patrol. Please arm yourself when you are here; we never know when we will need it.’”
US President Donald Trump spoke with Goldstein on Sunday and took to Twitter to praise the rabbi and Morales, writing: “He may have been off duty but his talents for Law Enforcement weren’t!”

As for why there weren’t any active duty guards at the synagogue, in an earlier interview with CNN Goldstein said, “Unfortunately, we couldn’t afford to have an armed security officer at every service, so whenever we had extra help, we were grateful for it.”
In a moment that Goldstein referred to as “miraculous,” Earnest’s gun jammed, and congregant Oscar Stewart, a 51-year-old Army veteran, and Morales attempted to subdue the gunman. Morales was also able to open fire and give pursuit.

After Earnest fled the building, Morales followed in his own vehicle and shot and hit Earnest’s car. Earnest soon turned himself in to law enforcement.
On Sunday, Goldstein, his two hands in fresh blue bandages, gave a detailed recounting of Saturday’s harrowing shooting in Poway, a suburban town just north of San Diego.
“I was preparing for my sermon, I walked out of the sanctuary and into the lobby and I saw my dear friend Lori Kaye,” said Goldstein. “I walked into the banquet hall to wash my hands, walked two or three footsteps and I heard a loud bang.”
That bang was the sound of the first shots fired by Earnest, a college student who entered the Chabad House undetected amid a flow of mourners who were gathering for Yizkor, the traditional memorial service held on the final day of Passover.
“I turned around and saw something indescribable,” Goldstein continued. “Here is a young man standing with a rifle pointing right at me. He had sunglasses on. I couldn’t see his eyes, I couldn’t see his soul.”
The rabbi said that when he saw the shooter he initially froze, then raised his hands to cover his face. Two of his fingers were blown off; one was reattached by surgeons at Palomar Medical Center in San Diego late Saturday.
Gilbert-Kaye, whom relatives and friends on Saturday described as a woman of unconditional love and unbounded generosity, was the only fatality of Earnest’s mass shooting.

Goldstein took several minutes to thank San Diego County law enforcement and to praise the wellspring of warmth and support that the local community has offered in light of the tragedy.

A chain of miracles

In a remarkable series of events, the rabbi and a handful of congregants were able to save a group of children playing in the adjacent banquet hall, preventing a full-fledged massacre.
“I ran [to gather the children],” Goldstein says. “My granddaughter, who is four and a half years old, saw her grandpa with a bleeding hand. She saw me shouting, ‘Get out! Get out!’ She didn’t deserve to see her grandfather like that.”
Aided by Peretz, an Israeli war veteran who was also at Chabad of Poway with his family Sunday, Goldstein was able to usher the children out of the banquet hall with the shooter in pursuit.
But in what Goldstein referred to as a “miracle,” Earnest’s gun jammed. Even while Morales was still on Earnest’s trail, congregants — who had been gathered in the sanctuary and would have made easy targets for Earnest had his gun not jammed — fled to Chabad’s front entrance.

Goldstein’s hand was bleeding badly and his two fingers were dangling by cartilage. “I grabbed a prayer shawl,” he said, wrapped his wounds, and stood on a chair to address his congregation.
“I said, ‘I gotta do something,’” he said. “I said to our congregation: ‘Am Yisrael chai [The People of Israel live]. We are a Jewish nation that will stand tall and we will not let anyone or anything take us down.’”

Farewell to an ‘angel’

“Lori took the bullet for all of us. She died to protect all of us. She didn’t deserve to die,” Goldstein said.
Gilbert-Kaye was one of the congregation’s oldest and most devoted members, the rabbi told media. A former employee of Wells Fargo, she was instrumental in helping Chabad secure the loan for the building in the early 1990s. She and her husband Howard were so close with the rabbi and his wife that two weeks ago they flew to New York City for Goldstein’s youngest daughter’s wedding, and danced together with the bride.

Her generosity and kindness was lauded on Sunday by Roneet Lev, who was at the Chabad of Poway to mourn. Lev described herself as Kaye’s best friend.
“Lori Kaye is an angel on this planet,” Lev said. “She’s touched many lives in her own life. Not just in this community but throughout the entire world.”
Describing a woman who always carried gifts cards and greeting cards to offer as presents and who would regularly purchase extra coffees and donuts for homeless people on the street, Lev explained that Kaye was at Chabad of Poway to say the first Kaddish mourner’s prayer for her mother, who had recently died.
Kaye’s daughter Hannah lives in Los Angeles and had driven down to be with her mother for the service.
Lev offered hope and optimism as she spoke of her friend.
“Even in this horrible, painful event, we know good will come out of it,” Lev said. “Lori is known for bringing out the good in people. And look at these flowers. Look at this law enforcement. Look at the good people of San Diego. Lori is now bringing them together.”

p.s., another article about the shooting from a local paper was originally posted with some odd wording that cast some shadows on the synagogue’s use of DHS funds to strengthen security. The second and third versions fixed this gaff and added a quote from the local ADL spokesperson.

Dear MAGA: 20190408 Open Topic

This MILITARIZE THE BUCKING FORDER MONDAY open thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA world.

https://twitter.com/gbroh10/status/1114997795658903554

You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on.

Free Speech is practiced here. ENJOY IT. Use it or lose it.

AND WE WILL DO MORE.

WE WILL DEFEND FREE SPEECH TO VICTORY, STANDING DEFIANTLY OVER THE RUINS OF THEIR CRUSHED FAKE NEWS.

Keep it SOMEWHAT civil. They tried to FORCE fake Orwellian civility on us. In response, we CHOOSE true civility to defend our precious FREEDOM from THEM.

Our rules began with the civility of the Old Treehouse, later to become the Wolverinian Empire, and one might say that we have RESTORED THE OLD REPUBLIC – the early high-interaction model of the Treehouse – except of course that Q discussion is not only allowed but encouraged, and speech is considerably freer in other ways. Please feel free to argue and disagree with the board owner, as nicely as possible.

Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here in the January 1st open thread. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven.

Remember – your greatest gift to President Trump is FIVE WORDS:

I AM PRAYING FOR YOU.

Our movement

Is about replacing

A failed

And CORRUPT

Political establishment

With a new government controlled

By you, the American People.

Candidate Donald J. Trump

Also consider Wheatie’s Rules:

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

Well, look at this!

But WHY??? This, from one of my OAN faves….

David Martosko retweeted this, so even though it’s “BROOMBERG”, it has some credibility…

Do we have successorsign? YES! We have successorsign!

Needless to say, the JACKALS are circling around the apex predator’s kill….

Even “Dead-Eyes Broomwitch”, the handler of both Treason McCabe and Two-Door Ford, had to get in on the act. Wasn’t this worthless piece of SHIT a buddy of Avenatti? And he’s talking about integrity? Hopefully he’ll continue to do so from GITMO.

And don’t forget GODWIN’S LAW – already reached!!!

Although we ARE seeing some better commentary…

Love seeing how clueless SOME of the commies are….

Oh, yeah, babe. You think you’re happy now.

Wait for it.

My recommendation?
Joe Arpaio for Secretary of DHS.
Matt Whitaker for Deputy Secretary of DHS.
Make ’em SCREAM.

PS – Thanks to our lovely MARICA for the brilliant recommendation of BIG MATT!

Dear MAGA: 20190131 Open Topic

This THROW OFF THE CLOWARD-PIVEN RADICALS THURSDAY Open Thread is VERY OPEN.

You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on. Keep it civil. Rules much like the Old Treehouse, except of course Q discussion is not only allowed but encouraged. A couple of other important things to consider. This link….

https://wqth.wordpress.com/2019/01/01/dear-maga-open-topic-20190101/

….contains some general guidelines for things that are really, really not kosher to post here.

Also consider Wheatie’s Rules (as amended by SteveInCO):

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
  4. No shooting at the nuclear warheads.

Remember – this is a free speech zone. The greatest weapon you have here is that banning is controlled by a guy who can’t stand to ban people, and who doesn’t give a shit what people say, except for the VERY FEW THINGS that can be used by the HOLDER DOJ (because he’s basically still running it) to shut this place down.

– – · –

The current plan for Dear MAGA threads is to switch to a format where people have ONE NIGHT A WEEK that they take care of the thread. For example, Wheatie will put up the SATURDAY thread on FRIDAY NIGHT.

  • Monday – Wolf
  • Tuesday – Wolf
  • Wednesday – Wolf
  • Thursday – Wolf
  • Friday – Wolf
  • Saturday – Wheatie
  • Sunday – ThinkThinkThink

If anybody else would be interested in being a Dear MAGA author one night a week, feel free to let me know.

The theme of tonight’s post is simple. The LEFT is getting very weird and desperate. They are throwing EVERYTHING at us.

  • infanticide abortion
  • House of Commies LYING about Nielsen at DHS
  • social justice hoaxing
  • Khlamydia Harris for President (automatic civil war when she grabs the guns – false flags everywhere – gonna be exciting for sure)
  • Krassenstein psycho twins screaming impeachment as any hope of it vanishes
  • Mueller making desperation indictments in the Three Stooges (Jones, Corsi and Stone)
  • Maduro shipping his GOLD to MOSCOW and preparing to FLEE
  • caravans moving for the border
  • Mafia Nan and Cryin’ Chuck still refusing to budge on the border
  • FBI mystery players, possibly Ohrs and Fusion GPS, catching HEAT

Hey – it’s just getting WEIRD.

And YET we PERSIST. AND WIN.

And then the stock market (D-J) goes over 25K.

Yeah. SMILE for the SJW-DEBUNKING CAMERAS EVERYWHERE.

These are the TRUMP TIMES, BABY.

WINNAMINS IS GOOD FOR WHAT AILS YA.

[D20] / D2O – Tales of Moderation and Nukes

This may or may not be [D] Day, but this is one hell of a day. NUKES FALLING. WALLS GOING UP. Another day of TRUMP!!!

First, I was allowed back on CTH. How in the HELL did that happen?

But not just me – everybody! All the Q people seemed to be “unbanned”!!!

Then BOMBS started falling….

And then something which EXPLAINS the back-out of the BLACK HATS from CTH and QTH was made known….

https://twitter.com/dbongino/status/1075798804358680577

Makes sense that MUELLERITES were being used against us! Time to SHUT DOWN THE OPS! NEW SHERIFF IN TOWN! Radium Rod was G-O-N-E GONE!

Of course, METHINKS the money started talking, too…. 😉

And I summed up a theory of it all on Twitter like this:

I prepared the place [The Q Tree] earlier so Q people could “get a room” and not annoy Sundance. But then it became a lifeboat when we started getting banned. The history of the posts there track our growing understanding of what was happening. We turned our crisis into an opportunity and began rational inquiry on many things that were very nasty, including 9/11, which I was able to relate to other things I know about, not in the news or generally known. Meanwhile, I was being shadowed heavily in real life by people who were looking for information only useful to those wishing to do me harm. Once I figured out that it was FBI-related, things started clicking – Trump’s enemies in old IC were leaning on and using resources in the local FO. I started connecting dots and exposing stuff. I figured out that SD was likely being hit with National Security Letters related to ME. Then it all clicked. I dumped bigly and I think the White Hats were back in the game on a lot of stuff. As for the ban hammer, I never blamed SD, because early on, somebody tried to trick me into doxxing him (allowing their doxx post to go through moderation). That’s when I figured it was a divide-and-conquer operation against Sundance. These people are NASTY. I think that SD outsmarted them.

Then *Q* started posting like mad!!!

Spot the difference? Yes – go to the article and spot the difference.

Then read this final part of it.

No – read it to the end. Read the bio for the byline.

Jimmy Carter’s chief handler – whoops – I mean speechwriter.

He knows. He knows EXACTLY what is coming.

“Whoever comes next to the Oval Office should feel confident enough to put those battle flags back where they belong.”

Yeah, well, when we’re done, you’ll be telling us everything you know, buddy. My big question is how much you know about Three Mile Island.

Notice that once you understand that the “governmedia” is what it is because of WHO it is, it all makes sense.
