“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
This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!
Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.
Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!
Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.
The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.
And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.
And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.
OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.
If there is nothing beyond the “W” below, then this is a placeholder. For health reasons, I can’t always post a timely opinion before each Thursday, but I will try. Otherwise, you have this placeholder post, where YOU provide the content. Enjoy!

Fresh Thursday Trinkets! Come and GET ‘EM!
(1) Remember the Titan? More reality about the supposed “recovery of presumed remains” from the Merry Mortician.
(2) OK, after that, a little comedy is in order. Especially for you Gen X folks!
(3) Do you remember how Steve explained atoms, where electrons “orbited” the nucleus in “orbitals” that weren’t really like planetary orbits, but rather more like something else?
Here is a very intuitive, and very non-mathematical explanation of “something else” – by that guy who likes to understand these things at a gut level.
HINT/TLDR: Take a vibrating string, distort it into three dimensions, where one end becomes a point at the center, and the other end becomes infinity in all directions. Interesting things happen, but they make sense.
(4) Wanna see something enjoyable? Watch Ilhan Omar and Margaret Brennan mutually annihilate after Scott Bessent drops delayed-action bombs on Brennan’s show!
(5) Remember how Hussein the Disastrous, a.k.a. “Globama”, had his “Furies” – Susan Rice, Avril Haines, and Lisa Monaco – who caused all sorts of wicked trouble in this world? Here is the real story on the Fates and the Furies of Greek mythology.
Speaking of Avril, that month is now well underway. Have a great weekend!
Suddenly I remembered one of my FAVORITE videos of all times – the one where Tom Petty understood FAKE NEWS, FAKE ENTERTAINMENT, FAKE SCIENCE and FAKE HISTORY literally DECADES before we did.
Here are the original lyrics, as nearly as I can tweak them to the ad libs of the video:
Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers Lyrics

“Scammin’ Me”
(Try playing the song while you read – it really helps!)
You got us in a corner
You got us against the wall
We got no – where to go
We got no – where to fall
Take back your crap insurance
With Obama’s guarantee
Take back your global warming
‘Cause we cut our T.V.s free
You’re scammin’ me
You’re scammin’ me
Quit scammin’ me
Hey you can keep us punched in a corner
But we will walk away, and it’s not over
You’re scammin’ me

Quit scammin’ me
Yeah you can keep us punched in a corner
But we will walk away, and it’s not over

Take back your city slackers
You’re tryin’ so hard to import
You’re scammin’ me
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) were joined by Democratic lawmakers from both the House and Senate on February 7, 2019, to introduce Green New Deal legislation.

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

Q posted today – in preparation for the Qth of July – and I thought it was worth covering, because a great thought really struck me from these posts.
This president would love nothing more than to divide our country based on race, religion, gender, orientation, ability, or immigration status. This is the only way he thinks he can prevent the solidarity of working people.
What happens when the ‘controlled’ are told to create a new false ‘racist’ narrative [disinformation campaign]?
Do the ‘SHEEP’ follow?
Think for yourself.
SEE truth.
Q
Q Post 3437
Take a look at Islamist agent Omar’s words:
This president would love nothing more than to divide our country based on race, religion, gender, orientation, ability, or immigration status. This is the only way he thinks he can prevent the solidarity of working people.
We’re not falling for it.
Ilhan Omar, July 16, 2019
What I find remarkable here is that these two women standing here, in the video in this tweet by Ilhan Omar – namely Ilhan Omar and Ayanna Pressley – minus their comrades, Rashida Tlaib and Alexandria Ocacio-Cortez – represent two things which both want WITH INCREDIBLE FEROCITY to take away MY rights and MY freedoms.
Namely, COMMUNISM and ISLAMISM.
In fact, they want to take away EVERYBODY’S rights – all in the name of “equality”.
In doing so, those two things – communism and Islamism – have LITERALLY gerrymandered REALITY ITSELF in every possible IMAGINARY way except the ways that matter.
But what I find MOST ODD is the following.
THEY ARE THE ONES WHO CREATE THESE DIVISIONS.
They FEED on these divisions.
They NEED these divisions.
They STOKE these divisions.
They START these divisions.
They SPARK these divisions.
They CREATE these divisions.
They EXPAND these divisions.
They MAKE TOXIC these divisions.
And now – at long last – they actually have the GALL and the HELL-DESERVING CHUTZPAH to BLAME these divisions on somebody else.
I can in no way say this more strongly.
YOU are the fucking racist, Ilhan Omar. YOU are the fucking racist, Ayanna Pressley.
If you hate this country, which you do, please leave and go to CHINA.
IF you EVER come back, you may think differently about America. But I will tell you ladies this. We will NEVER let you turn this place into another China, where they have REAL socialism, and REAL concentration camps for Muslims, and REAL SLAVERY for PEOPLE LIKE ME.
SO GO TO HELL, SOCIALISTS.
We will NEVER let you bring socialist concentration camps here.
NEVER.
EVER.
Oh, and by the way, I posted about that earlier. Have a look.
Speaking of CHINA and the FOUR HATEWOMEN, I posted this on Gab, about “GO BACK”….
Why should the Four Horseladies go back? Enlightened SOCIALISM and KINDA SORTA EX-SOCIALISM IN China and Russia await their new citizens!
“Comrades Ocacio-Cortez, Omar, Tlaib and Pressley! Welcome to your new home in CHINA!”
China actually has REAL concentration camps for Muslims. You all should go to CHINA and be part of the real drama. Omar and Tlaib get to go INSIDE China’s concentration camps for Muslims, while AOC and Pressley can protest outside for one entire minute, if they’re very lucky, before they get sent to LAOGAI (otherwise known as concentration camps for politics), where they will surely be raped many times before they die, in lovely SOCIALIST CHINA!!! Where there is no racism, as long as you are the “right” kind of Chinese!
SOCIALISM! IT’S AWESOME – FOR THOSE IN CHARGE – FOR A WHILE!
This strikes home for me, because it really tells the tale of how I ended up over at CTH, as a TRUMP SUPPORTER seeking shelter at a TRUMP BASTION, before we all came here with Q.
I was all over Disqus and Breitbart for years, under Obama. I knew that we HAD to STOP the Obama insanity, soon to become Hillary insanity, in 2016, or we were in real trouble. And I was absolutely unsure WHICH Republican presidential hopeful was the one to END the Prog-Nazi insanity that we were all slowly marching toward.
I was probably behind EVERY one of the GOP presidential hopefuls for at least 30 minutes, some for 30 hours, and a few for 30 days or more. Significant among them:
Rand Paul
Ted Cruz
Ben Carson
John Kasich
I even had a few flirtations with Carly Fiorina until learning about her strong CIA associations, and “feelings” toward Marco Rubio, until I realized that he was being strongly manipulated by others (neocon pool-boy). I tried to talk myself into “acceptance” of Jeb Bush a few times, as a feasibility test, and I learned to love Chris Christie as he warmed up to Trump.
However, it was TRUMP who stole my affections from the four listed above, and from TED CRUZ most of all. TED actually stayed on top of my list for quite a while, until Trump came along. Indeed, speaking up nicely but a bit too strongly for TRUMP got me kicked off of The Right Scoop. Imagine that.
Ultimately, I agree with Sundance – only Trump had the special street smarts to get past the cunning communists.
ANYWAY….
We have all been through a lot of fascinating shared history with Trump. But I think it’s time for me to quote myself on this, for the very first time:
Get used to it. Trump speed is the new normal. Some will call it flip-flopping, but that’s not what it is. Trump is dodging and weaving through reality faster than the reality can react to disrupt his plans.
I was explaining this to my wife. This is a roller-coaster now. Trump is no longer waiting for people to keep up. He is taking his bewildering art-of-the-deal campaign schtick into geopolitics, and for a lot of people who can’t keep up or hold on, it will be a rough ride.
[…]
They can’t keep up, either.
Neither can many around him. I think that half of the problem with advisers crashing into each other is they don’t realize what Trump is doing.
And people will trash you, and they will trash me. Get used to it. I’ve already caught plenty of people mocking me. Well, just wait a week in Trump time. Look stupid and conned by Trump one minute, and you look like a sage three days later.
[…]
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
[…]
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!” 😀
This TO DESTROY ANTIFA (AND #AUNTIFA) TUESDAY open thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGAKAG! KMAG world (KMAG being a bit of both).

It turns out that we can thank LAURA INGRAHAM for tonight’s theme / meme of “The Four Horsewomen of the Apocalypse“.
If you need proof, here it is – right in the TREACHEROUS HUFFPO.
I find it remarkable that Laura SO QUICKLY and SO LONG AGO spotted the PERNICIOUS PESTILENCE that is this coven of new and remarkably un-American – no – I take that back – ANTI-AMERICAN congresswomen – who seek power over America.
If you want to watch that episode, here it is:
https://youtu.be/haslnW-eOlo
And YES – the “four horsewomen” comment comes at 4:25 in the video, if you want to check it out.
I found something rather remarkable, thanks to the FAKE NEWS SOCIAL MEDIA (YouTube) and its massive and omnipresent BIAS against all things Trump, Republican, etc.
The fake news was REALLY SCARED OF THIS SEGMENT. Not only did I find the HuffPo piece very quickly (and before I found Laura’s actual monologue) – I also found right next to it a “Young Turks” panel of women who spent 12 minutes going off on Laura’s criticism.
Here is THAT video – without the benefit of showing. Sorry, ladies – all you get is a link: https://youtu.be/GgQ53kzqcUM
Fortunately, our wonderful VSGPOTUS – defending AMERICA from those who despise it, has maximally unmasked these bitter agents of COMMUNISM and ISLAMISM.
So much so, that even the HORRIBLE COMMUNIST David Axelrod was forced to the surface, from his bottom-feeding mud-hole somewhere in Chicago….
YOU get to defend both the VIOLENT #ANTIFA and the SUBVERSIVE #AUNTIFA.
Or should I say – #AUNTIFAH.
There you go – it comes in two varieties – COMMUNIST and ISLAMIST. Take your pick.
So while we’re at it, using the TRUMP DOCTRINE to make the COMMUNISTS and ISLAMISTS behind the Democrat Party responsible for the angry loony radical communist and Islamist ladies of AUNTIFA(H), it’s time to also make them responsible for the VIOLENCE of ANTIFA.
And on that note, a VERY interesting video from NORWAY.
AH – the COMFORTING PRESENCE of a peaceful family man – STRONG ENOUGH TO DEFEND WHAT’S RIGHT, from those who USE CONFLICT AND HATRED to advance an UNWANTED AGENDA OF CONTROL over the PEOPLE.
Check out this man’s wonderful testimony.
HOW NORWAY GOT RID OF ANTIFA.
The video is painfully long, but the man’s slow, controlled, precise, oddly “West-Germanic” Norwegian-accented English, is weirdly soothing, and worth at least a short listen.
His prescription (as interpreted / analyzed / augmented by me) comes down to this:
they have to be arrested, every time they are violent or do something illegal
they need to be ridiculed as LOSERS – not bullied – but regularly ridiculed
their hatred of traditional masculinity and family must be recognized and criticized
they ALL have personal issues – FIXING THOSE weakens their abuse by communists
the abuse of these mental patients by communists to fill the ranks must be criticized
the TRANS movement that FILLS ANTIFA must be shut down as mental abuse
the TRANS movement is designed to GENERATE CONFLICTOS to become ANTIFA
the antifa groups now have support from the INTERNET – weaken / oppose it
they now have too much support from journalists – ridicule, criticize, warn and shame
journalists labeling normies AS NAZIS is exactly what the NAZIS did – demand they stop
antifa have both support and CREATION from academics – weaken, criticize, spotlight
antifa are “farmed” in universities – weaken, criticize, and SUE OUT THE WAZOO
the centrist politicians who will define the future of a peaceful nation must shun them
the contradictions of the movement (hatred and violence) must be made clear
ban the wearing of masks to force members to face both consequences and contradictions
members have to be given a PATH OF RETREAT to leave the movement, #WALKAWAY
(Thanks to Wheatie for a reminder about the banning of masks – VERY important!)
I can tell you, that after I listen to this video, then cross-reference it with the video at the end, in which UNIVERSITIES are identified as ANTIFA INCUBATORS, and catalog the individual points above, I am quite confident that we can destroy ANTIFA and make Democrats, and particularly the COMMUNISTS who are in control of the party, fully responsible for the mess.
