I posted a comment on another Substack yesterday that if the draft is reinstated, then women should be drafted too.

Did my typical comment, "women want equal rights, until they have to do the hard stuff."

Sure did trigger the white liberal Karens.

Posted that if you voted for Biden, your kids should be drafted.

And especially if you have an Ukrainian flag in your bio or elsewhere.

They used to say that it was fat old men who wanted other folks' sons to risk death. When was that idea floating around--in the Vietnam years? (I have only 28 days left to say I'm 73).

I remember the casualties from the Vietnam War.

Didn't McNamara apologize later? And finally that evil old troll Kissinger died.

And all the injuries and deaths attributed to Agent Orange and the VA taking almost 3 decades to realize there was a problem.

Vietnam is the poster child for PTSD.

and no apology to the vietnamese for the invasion and for it being used as a testing ground for total destruction and chemical warfare. instead, america accused them of hiding the american dead. and continued economic warfare. for example, when india began the process of shipping them water buffalo to replace the ones actively killed by the invasion to create hunger, america threatened india with removal of economic activity if they continued to help vietnam. that was long after the invasion had been aborted.

The saddest thing is that over 20 of our beloved vets commit suicide every day and the VA ignores it.

Expand full comment
Kathleen Janoski's avatar

Yes, they do ignore it.

The VA pays a lot of lip service, but not so much concern.

A few months back here in Pittsburgh, a 73-year-old veteran committed suicide at a VA health care facility. The VA seemed to be more concerned about how he brought a weapon in, rather than why he chose suicide.

His life was important.

The VA needs to start asking us how the pandemic affected our mental health. For a very long time, if we did not wear a mask, we were denied needed medical care. In what universe is that even humane?

And no accommodations were made for veterans suffering from PTSD, traumatic brain injury, anxiety, depression, military sexual trauma. It says right on the box that masks do not prevent covid.

And I read for each month of isolation that a veterans endures, their chances of committing suicide go up.

The VA will probably wait 30 years to address the issue. Just like to took them 30 to acknowledge that exposure to Agent Orange causes multiple serious injuries and diseases.

What a fine concept!!!!

HIS is precisely wha Dwight d Eisenhower warned agains in his Farewell Speech. HE should know.. he was top general as the Second German War wound down. He plainly warned against the "military industrial complex". He had NO IDE how right he would be proven. And right he was.

There is an endless "turntable" of folks moving from elected government positions into and back out of top management positions in designers and manufacurers of the "toys" with which we make war not peace. And "smehow" as that table turns round and round, those on the turntable somehow get astoundingly wealthy. Then they hop off the table and get elected to some office, fromwhich they then enable their crones and partners to hop onto the turntable.

Funny how the Buy Dem dynasty seems to so closely follow that model, both in military and international banking and busines endeavours.

Very interesting… Not an area I have investigated, but I could see that happening.

If a female insists on doing a traditionally male job, she should do it at least equally as well. If she does it equally as well, then she won’t be raising a family and keeping the home. One of the two will always fall short.

I think the overall movement was part of the intentional destruction of the family unit, often blamed on men not doing their jobs… both can be equally true at the same time.

I believe it is Andrew Klavan who has long posited that once women take over something (a profession, the arts, etc...), that thing is then on the decline because it means men are no longer interested in it or are contributing to it and without the influence of men, that thing languishes. There are so many current examples which prove his assertion (just think of the whole Star Wars devolution taking place under the guise of AWFLs).

Women have an innate desire for having children. The Feminazi movement couldn’t kill that. They could only make it a miserable experience. I remember in those early takeover days, seeing very pregnant women cashiers and other laborers; on their feet all day. My heart broke for them. I felt very blessed to have been able to be at home, properly caring for myself through my four pregnancies.

Medical conditions resulting in C-sections and other interventions are common now. And with autism rates now being 1 in 5, and a proliferation of other ‘learning disability’ categories, we can see that things aren’t going well for those babies.

The War of Northern Aggression was NOT over he issue of slavery, which was already doomed by the beginnings of the Industrial REvolution and many in the South were well aware of this. No it was abusive taxes and import duties imposed by he North blocking trade with Europe by the Southern States. , to include the capture/sinking of southern ships When it went so far as to result in naval blockades against trade into/out of southern ports the South began to separate from the Union they volintarily joined. Lincoln saw this as an attack oh HIS personal sovereignty and arranged a false flag attack on a southern port, Charleston Harbor. , "triggering" a full fledged military rsponse to bring hose nasty rebels to heel.

Even after the war was concluded, the North invaded and "remade" the South imposing harsh regulatons, martial law, etc. Many of the leaders in the South either opposed slavery on its koral principles or on practical ones, realising that thing like Eli Whitney's cotton gin, and shortly after harvesters made massive numbers of field hands an economic impracticality. But rather than allowing things to change gradually and non-destructively at the end of the war ALL slaves were instantly declared free.. nowhere to go, no income, no marketable skills, millions suddenly rendered homeless and destitute. A plantation owner could not even keep some of them on as salaried employees for a fair wage.. they HAD to leave the only home most of them had ever known. To go... where, exactly?

So proud she was to have campaigned for Obama for his first to last elected offices. When the professor got dementia she was set to put him in a very expensive nursing home until I suggested as a WW2 vet he'd likely get much better and cheaper care in a VA facility which is what happened.

But I can’t speak for you, you’ll have to decide

If even the Russians have God on their side

But now we’ve got weapons of chemical dust

If fire them we’re forced to, then fire them we must

One push of the button and they’re shot the world wide

And you never ask questions when God’s in you side

So now as I'm leavin', I'm weary as hell

The confusion I'm feelin' ain't no tongue can tell

The words fill my head, and they fall to the floor

That if God's on our side, he'll stop the next war

Kathleen, you know well that I am a conservative woman. But I think that women should not be drafted, for at least two reasons. 1) protection of the human species---if 4 M men are killed in battle, one man can still impregnate many women. And 2)--with all respect due to you yourself, I suspect that women lower the aggression-quotient of the battling male (lowered bar for endurance tests, etc).

My point with saying that women should be drafted is to force the issue about the futility with the forever wars.

I was on a USFS fire crew (type II, two 10 person crews from 2 ranger districts) that got sent to Yellowstone NP in 1988. The crew was probably 40% female.

Three weeks into the assignment, a new Incident Management Team rotated in and the Safety Officer was all concerned about keeping any menstruating females in camp (y’know, the bears…🙄🙄🙄).

Ignorance is your problem, not stupidity.

Treason is defined in the Constitution at Article 3, Section 3, as consisting "only in levying War against (the United States), or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort."

All members of the American military take an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; (and to) bear true faith and allegiance to the same."

When the military is committed to foreign actions without a declaration of war by Congress, as required by Article 1, Section 8, Paragraph 11 of the Constitution, that is a violation of the Constitution, arguably the action of domestic enemies.

When a member of the military participates in an unconstitutional foreign military deployment, s/he violates both the Constitution and his/her oath to "support and defend" it, giving "aid and comfort" to it's "domestic enemies," committing treason by the definition given by the Constitution.

Positive Outcomes of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Durable in Long-COVID

Convincing One-Year Data from Small Randomized Trial

PETER A. MCCULLOUGH, MD, MPH

https://petermcculloughmd.substack.com/p/long-term-outcomes-of-hyperbaric

Expand full comment
Politico Phil's avatar

This is good news and I'm grateful that McCullough is willing to talk about "alternatives". However, at some point we have got to quit characterizing bio-weapon injuries as Long-Covid or even as "vaccine" injuries! By using the terminology of those attacking us and killing us, we are aiding them in their psyops that prevents the American population from seeing their attacker.

McCullough still consistently calls these injection injuries Long-Covid in the posts I've seen. The injuries suffered by Americans from the bio-weapon shot are being covered up by denying that they are injuries but rather they are long-covid symptoms. This is how they are deflecting blame and liability. The only sentence in the post where McCullough references injury is at the end: "In summary, this is good news for those suffering with long-COVID and with vaccine injury syndromes." Syndrome? Really?

Here's an example my son told me about who was referred to him for IVIG treatment. The 55 year old patient was referred by his neurologist and PCP who diagnosed him with long-covid. He is retired military and was very physically active, exercising and muscular. He got his first covid injection in 1/22 and got covid infection later that month. He began suffering loss of energy and significant weight loss which increased over time. After getting his second injection, he again caught covid and became completely debilitated in June, confined to a wheelchair unable to walk or stand, difficulty swallowing and holding his neck up. Long story short, a muscle biopsy was done in 3/23 revealing muscle necrosis and was referred at that point to my son for IVIG therapy. He has been treated with IVIG for one year and is now able to walk and the MD has discontinued treatments.

Who gets a second shot when symptoms start with the first one?? But of course, it's just long-covid.

Expand full comment
daverkb's avatar

Agreed. The term 'Covid' is totally non-descriptive. The word Covid is believed in only because the perpetrators behind the crime used the world non-stop repetitively over and over again. And there was only sham testing and attribution. The sheep always believe the talking electronic dots on their indoctrination machines (TV, cable, captured media outlets).

If they get away with this, they will do it again. Just the way of criminals.

Speaking of doing it again... I just listened to an interview with Michael Yon. If he's right, we are about to go to the next level. I'll be posting on it Mon. Sent this to my sons.............

Guys, when you listen to this, be prepared. Two interviews about the war going to the next level. Yon is talking about what is being rolled out in Japan tomorrow and the second interview is about UN troops now being staged - from the illegal immigrants - in the western countries to enforce orders on the population, something which Yon also talks about.

It appears it's about to get real.

Yes!! I can only speak to my experience: I was experiencing horrible neuropathy due to an allopathic treatment - burning & tingling all the way up my shins, couldn't sense the ground when walking, couldn't bear to wear socks/shoes or have even the sheets over my feet at night, it was in my hands, causing a loss of coordination and dexterity. In addition, my speech was affected - couldn't find the words for which I was looking or form complete sentences - and the MD said that there was nothing they could do for it, I would just have to learn to live with it. Oh, and to continue the treatment that was causing all of that!! 😒🙄 I saw a naturopath who said, "We absolutely can treat that!" After ONE 90-minute session, the neuropathy was 50% gone!!!! After 12 weeks, there was only a little residual tingling between the big and 2nd toes on my feet. Three years later, it has remained just that little bit of tingling. The dexterity in my hands isn't what it used to be, however, I am not dropping every other item, so that is a huge improvement. I still have trouble finding some words when I am talking or typing, which is why it takes so long to post!! 🤣😂🤣

I did use the "sleeping bag" HBOT, but the last time I was at the clinic, they had a "sit in the chair" version, which I used.

I did feel a little trepidation the first time, but it was fine, and the results were so amazing that I looked forward to the treatment every week.

Feel free to ask any questions you might have.

It truly was an answer to prayer - we did not know where to turn, medically speaking, and we spent hours crying out to the Lord for direction, researching every bit of info that came our way, and we were led to this answer. We are very grateful!!

And of course it is not covered by insurance! Compared to all the other medical bills, it really was not expensive, $110 for 90 minutes in 2021.

That’s an amazing story Mrs. The Knife. Glad it helped and glad you found the right naturopath.

A friend’s husband was doing them fairly recently for his cancer and the only bad side effect was vision problems, he had to keep changing his prescription.

If I recall his treatments were more expensive, something like $200-300. But I can double check that. Maybe it varies by region.

Nearly every kind of treatment, type of doctor or medicine that works is not covered by my insurance. Or recommended by the doctors who count. Only allopathic medicine approved of by the pharmaceutical companies and insurance companies as well as the CDC and FDA. That includes naturopathic and functional medicine, herbalism, TCM, Ayurvedic medicine, Hyperbaric Oxygen, nutritionists who don't follow the approved food pyramid, chiropractors and others. I have concluded that in most cases, to get the help I need, I must pay out of pocket. All while paying for my medical insurance and Rx plan, which I must maintain in the event of an emergency.

No, you don't need insurance for an emergency that's unlikely to happen.

State and federal law require treatment for life-saving measures. (Not that I would ever trust the Medical cartel for anything at all )

Do what we've done at age 61 & 55: refuse to fund these asshats and simply opt out. Stick the thousands of dollars you were paying for insurance into a separate account.

Can you expand on this logic Fred? It sounds like what you’re saying is dump the insurance. And rely on what? Concierge medicine? Medicare? And if you do have a serious accident or illness are you implying they have to treat you regardless? And if so, what happens when you get the $200k bill that takes all your savings?

I’m being sincere in challenging you for more info b/c we are also looking for an alternative. My husband is staying at a job he hates for a few more years just for the insurance.

"And if you do have a serious accident or illness are you implying they have to treat you regardless? And if so, what happens when you get the $200k bill that takes all your savings?"

Great questions.

My wife has been an RN for 25 years now. I noticed several years ago that her hospital patients were mostly uninsured. They waltzed into the ER without insurance or ability to pay, and they waltzed right back out days or weeks later without a thought to the bill because the hospitals are required by law to treat them, and you.

What most of them don't do, bult I highly recommend to responsible people, is that they negotiate the final bills. and offer to pay cash. The $200,000 bills you hear about are fake medical cartel rates that the hospital corporations - with the help of Medicare / Medicaid - pretend to charge the insurance companies.

Tell the medical provider you're paying cash, and the bill drops by 70% or more. If you're unable to pay that, they'll gladly setup a payment plan that you can afford.

If you're an average family, you're paying $500 - $1200 a month for health insurance. That's $6,000 - $14,400 per year that you COULD put into a savings account and pay for whatever you need out of pocket, and at a 50-70% discount.

My wife and I eat real food, and avoid processed anything. Neither one of us goes to "well checkups" or has seen a doctor since Jan. 2020.

Nor would I ever do so again, excepting a major injury like a broken bone, etc.

We also don't have any Rx's nor will we ever again. (She ditched her SSRIs last year.)

Let's say you *did* have an auto accident that required surgery, God forbid.

The hospital is required by law to treat you regardless of ability to pay. After you get the ridiculous bill, you negotiate a discount. If still unable to satisfy the bill, you simply setup a payment plan with the hospital, paying what you can reasonably afford.

Free yourselves from the Medical-Pharma Industrial Complex shackles, and walk away from the plantation. As you're leaving, give Massa Big Pharma the finger. Your great grandparents didn't need or likely have medical insurance plans. You don't need them either.

Keep in mind though, the requirements to treat only extend to the point of “stability.” Some facilities may extend a person’s care, but there is no requirement to do so.

I was hit by a car while walking in 2007. Because it was an "auto" accident, the person's "auto" insurance was supposed to cover it. Had I had regular medical insurance, it would not cover anything because it was a car accident. That's Ohio, anyhow.

Thanks for the information. I have full intention of refusing to sign up for any medicare program. After watching how hard they screw over our customers in the pharmacy and after the past 4 years, they will not see a dime from me.

My husband is self employed and we have used a medical need sharing program (Samaritan Ministries) for all our married life since insurance without a group policy was more than our house payment (even with a high deductible). It’s been a beautiful thing and we use it for any approach to medical care we choose! :)

Those are what they charge Big Insurance. Cash payers pay something like 30% of that rate.

A friend of mine is an anesthesiologist who is partners in a surgery center here. They accept no insurance, no Medicaid - nothing but cash. As a result, their fees are a tiny fraction of the fake fees that the medical cartel pretends to charge the insurance companies.

If you spent a few years extricating yourself from this absurd system, pocketing the insurance premiums you would have paid, and skipping the BS biannual pharma sales pitch (oops, I mean, "wellness checks") you'd have tens of thousands of actual dollars in a segregated savings account to be able to deal with whatever real medical issue comes up.

Throw in eating right and maybe a little exercise and you'll never have to deal with your medical abusers again.

If bump stocks are ever going to be illegal then rubber bands need to be addressed also. The same effect can be accomplished with either. In fact the rubber band technique may (arguably) be more accurate than bump stocks. There is also a technique that utilizes a belt loop for the rapid trigger reset.

IMO the best bands for finger guns are the heavier ones like those found on broccoli at some produce stores. They are very similar to the ones I've referenced only about twice the length. As for your son's situation (no doubt some Karen for a teacher), kids today get into trouble for just holding up their hands in the imaginary pistol shape.

This may be slightly off topic, but in my experience the "finger gun" rubber band method is not nearly as effective as the two hand "sling shot" method. The thicker bands are definitely better and I regularly dispatch flying insects with them. Mostly when they alight but I have taken some very large, slow-flying, house flies on the wing. And even one hornet. Happy hunting!

A big thumbs up for being able to take them on the wing. I used to be good with a variation on the sling shot using paperclips for ammo.

Expand full comment
St. Alia the Knife's avatar

Paper clips can cause collateral damage. It has been awhile, but back in school we used to take small scraps of paper, fold them over and over then flatten them and bend them in the middle. We could then use them to pull the rubber band stretched between the thumb and forefinger of the opposite hand taut then let fly. With the right tension and at short distances they could raise a welt on bare skin but a miss was very unlikely to break anything. Ah, memories!

We would make blow darts out of uncooked spaghetti noodles by wetting the end to make it sticky then attaching a small amount of cotton from a cotton ball or q-tip. Not to mention making very small darts with needles, pencil erasers, and tape. Just shows that kids will find a way to entertain themselves when there are no "smart" phones or computers available!
