CrowdStrike still striking airlines; experts baffled by hole in the ground; Reuter's truth bombs the Proxy War; bipartisan roasting of Secret Service Director sparks bureaucratic outrage; and more.
Thank you for that in depth segment about the Ukraine debacle.
And yes, despite their desire to prove otherwise, archeology has consistently found evidence confirming the historical accuracy of the Bible. Places, people, times, have continuously been corroborated.
I don't like Donald Rumsfeld, I think he was a snake, and showed signs of psychopathy for pushing aspartame through, for profit, regardless of its harms. Among other travesties. But I love the truth of that quote, its stark reality guaranteed it would be attacked, and it was.
I think it just speaks an obvious truth, no need to read between any lines. It does have many serious implications you could write a book about. But, the sentence itself is pure unvarnished reality. I'm a big fan of that.
Wouldn't THAT be a wondrous "first" for 45 to undertake - destroy the NEOCON citadel!!!
After reading J. C. 's blog for today...all I can say is..... "God's GRACE is magnificently shed on the once "United" States of America.
We have a SURPLUS OF FOOLS at the helms of so many CRUCIAL departments within the Federal government that one wonders how we EVER lasted as long as we have..... 09/11 was a precursor, friends...our ENEMIES know how feckless our leadership is - for now...they probably consider us "useful idiots"....we are indebted to China for floating bonds to subsidize our MASSIVE Federal deficit (that will NEVER go away)...and we are indebted to Russia for NOT attacking us from the Aleutian Islands - using TNT resources that are CHEAP and EFFECTIVE and that we apparently DO NOT POSSESS anymore.
As I've written too many times in the past 4 1/2 years...
And also, scientific discoveries keep agreeing with the Bible, not debunking it. Remember how God said the Israelites should circumcise their infant sons on the 8th day? Guess what day infants have the highest blood clotting factor?
I had an archeologist walk through the Jericho ruins, reviewing the notes from the original excavation when I was visiting Israel several years ago. All notes lined up with the Biblical account, but the conclusion was exactly the opposite. It was a fascinating visit and just one of many things confirming the Bible
The Bible is a fascinating and often reliable source of history. The human āchoiceā to settle down and build settlements meant the earth was no longer a garden, but needed constant tending. Life expectancy plummeted due to war and disease. All well documented and defensible based on other available evidence.
As for the magic wizards, I try to skip those parts.
Cheatle should have stayed home. What a monumental waste of time and first rate snooze fest....though the tough talk was palpable. 9 days into this and provides ZERO answers, ZERO clarity and more confusion....the ol' "I'm not going to comment during an ongoing investigation" ploy. A hackneyed example of bureaucratic stonewalling. (Paging Dr. Fauci.) Slopeheaded dope. I've got to try using that strategy at home. I bet I get slapped.
Itās a spiritual war. Satan doesnāt care who wins. Any war and any death is good to him. Cheatle is an agent of darkness, willingly or unwillingly. As for me, Iāll suffer and die as a Christian because this life isnāt even a blink of an eye compared to eternity.
WE went from the "Obamanation" and apparently the whore of Babylon is what they have in mind for us next. I was thinking that Joe Biden was the anti-Christ, but maybe that was really Kamala. Mitch McConnell is trying to say Whoa on this latest power grab, and Cheatle has resigned. Some good news at least.
Read Mart Armstrong's blog from today, Virtue - Marty has access to the "rumblings" within our government and those Western nations across the globe!! Kamala will NOT be the DEMONrats' POTUS candidate!!
Thomas came into this world, did his homework, to show that a lad with motivations to bring the house down on a Billion dollar a year security .GOV Gig.
With little more than items we can all buy from a sporting goods store, and with a little luck, find a huge gap to set up/ stroll thru with his own low tech drone vision.
I am truly saddened about civilians death and injuries. My vote of no confidence in any current SS abilities is off the hook. Just like the view from the drone. Ouch!
The first shot could not have physically come from Crooks position. At least from sources Iāve seen/read. God knows Iām clueless re ballistics but seems Iāve stumbled upon some who are experts in the field.
How insane that they can see the use of using others like waste paper but can't imagine anyone would see themselves that same way. š½ šŖ So long cabbage head. So long Thomas. So long jeff Eph. So long... So long...
Red State and Eugyppius have some interesting articles today about the "soft coup" perpetrated by the democrat elite where they forced Joe out under threats of invoking the 25th. And now enough delegates have said they'll vote for Kamala as the new running mate to Trump (prior to any dem convention); they have successfully picked a new candidate without a vote ever being cast in a primary for her.
Kind of reminds me of Bullwinkle--"Hey Rocky! Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!"
Weird the way their minds work. No consistency of thought. Also funny how such people gravitate to powerful positions. I think their shallowness give them a palpable (but unjustified) self-confidence and belief in their own entitlement that seems to be the single most useful trait for attaining power in a pathocracy, which is what we have.
During the Afghanistan war, intel folks couldnāt understand why Al Qaeda and Taliban were working together, since they were mortal enemies. Turns out, The Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend. After defeating their mutual enemy, apparently, they would then war with each other for the spoils. The Dems apply this same tactic. The people they collaborate with and consider ādisposable,ā i.e. Cheatle, et. al., are also euphemistically referred to as Useful Idiotsā¦..behind their backs, of course.
A new book by James Perloff describes how the body guard for Lincoln left his post at the theater. He was never punished, but others were sentenced to jail time. Seems like same playbook.
Wasn't she the first lady's first choice for the position and well liked by her? Strange how on the same day the first lady had a surplus of agents at her event leaving Trumps with a deficit. Now, no talkie-talkie?
She knows about the plot, and spent her remaining time as Director shredding documents or covering for her co-workers. Either one of those, or both, explains why she stayed on so long.
at this point I seriously wonder why we bother with congress at all as they have declined to fulfill their share of the government since o say never declaring war from vietnam forward.
Speaker "Hakeem" Johnson will ignore that remark. The UniRat* Party just Fully Funded a New FIB HQ so they/them can properly investigate and file "pigeon hole" this crucial evidence in the room with the Hunter Laptop / Weiner Laptop (forgot about that one didn't you? :-)
Can never forget the Weiner Laptop nor the young woman who had a young daughter in the car with her gunned down in October 2013 at the Obama white house.
How about WE ( U.S. Citizens ) need to prove our worth. We've allowed criminal intelligence agencies, corporate bribes, morale degradation - ( Start your own list ). MAGA ain't gonna be fast or easy.
They have no power. The ONLY thing they can do is file a charge w/ the DOJ. They look useless because they're hamstringed. Mayorkas controls all charges filed.
All theyād need to do is combine the onsite investigations with all the crowdsourced analysis happening online and theyād be done. Thereās even audio forensics analysis happening to determine shot distances and counts. Why go to congress without even a timeline? Only a few reasons.
I just listened to Darkhorse Podcast (Brett Weinstein) interview him about what he has found so far. I appreciate his willingness to be wrong...if only someone would provide evidence that he's wrong.
Heās ignored largely because he ends up being correct. I watched the same podcast- had never heard of him. I also very much appreciated his willingness to amend his conclusion(s) upon receipt of much more needed information.
Something I noticed yesterday while watching the congressional hearing is how, miraculously, there was so much bipartisan cooperation exposing this train wreck of a SS director. Even AOC sounded more like a rational person than unhinged Nancy Mace. On the surface, all the cooperation looked great but I couldn't help but wonder why there wasn't all this cooperation to impeach Mayorkis. Yes, attempted assassination is horrible but how many Americans have been victims of illegal migrants (death, rape, human trafficking, drugs, etc)?
Agree. I'm old enough to think people in positions of power (on any side) should set a good example, which in my book does not include swearing and vulgar language. It's a symptom of lazy thinking and disrespect for everyone listening.
How about the fact that she didn't even know the history of previous directors (e.g. the Director who resigned following the attempt on Reagan)? You'd think some staffer would have given her a little primer. Again. These people operate with impunity. They will never be held to account for anything no matter how massive the screw up. See exhibit A: Anthony Fauci, exhibit B: Deborah Birx.
Regardless of the politician, regardless of the party, and regardless of the crisis, making a trip to the site is usually little more than a photo op. A statement that they "care". And with filming and photos of the realities at the site, the politician can usually get an even better viewing of situation than the one or two staged photo op photoshoots provides. So even if Kamala did go to the border, it would have been a meaningless gesture of concern. What is more helpful would be an accurate assessment of the problems and issues by authorities, citizens, and victims on the ground. But "a man sees what he wants to see and disregards the rest". (Simon & Garfunkel) And when maintaining an agenda is the priority, that's all that matters.
If you think this was a waste of time, I can't wait for FBI director Wray's "testimony". We can spare us all the drama. His answer to every question will be, "This is an ongoing investigation. We do not comment on ongoing investigations."
but Worthless Wray will possibly regurgitate some more on the Violent Domestic Deplorable Insurgents as his FIB is still arreSSting those Insurgents from Jan 6th 2021, while Meritless Garland sends We the People off to the Feral Gulags.
At least Old Slo Joe survived the Stalinist-Nuland democRat Coup ..... didn't he??? Seems a purrfect time to have a USSA Stateless Funeral to displace all this "conspiracy talk".
I'm beginning to get a glimpse of life in the USSR, comrades. Ain't it fun???
Hilarity Rotten Clintoon is not out of the POTUS picture either and she certainly remarked that Deplorables need a "Happy Camp" trip. (of course I'm wearing the tin foil hat for remembering the Clintonistas........ or perhaps the Obamaites can "save us"??? Again as in 2008.
Under withering bipartisan crossfire, āmistakesā were made. Nothing burger once again. Cheatle will resign and another inept, āI know nothingā, will take her place.
But all of AOC's ire is just cover for her real goal: using this event to push for gun control. That's what all the libs are doing in their rantings. Yes, they acknowledge the failure of the process, but then lament, "if only we didn't have so many guns in our country!"
She and her pals can more easily act up, incite riots etc., when he's in the White House. She's like a bolshy adolescent - they need to fight an authority figure and ol' Joe was not that.
Unlike other false flag ( government sponsored terror) events of the past , with todayās citizen journalism and eye witness accounts and videos, we already know the truth .
She was hired for specific reasons and competency on securing Presidents wasnāt one of them. So she wont be fired for her incompetence in that area either.
I had all those reports on my kitchen table prior to heading out the door for this hearing.
It was left next to a beef roast thawing out on the counter next to the files, we have a four year old Great Dane with the nose of a blood hound. Our dog Rocky ate all that homework.
Considering the depth of this elaborate coup global takeover, and yes the elaborate matrix of controlled op coverup, not even Tucker would chance exposing itā¦ while diving deeper into this WEF coupā¦ I canāt help but think of Seth Richā¦ carefulā¦..
He's openly saying the attempt to kill Trump is a deep state plot and you are calling him controlled opposition? You need to stop calling everyone "controlled opposition" who doesn't believe every single thing you believe.
Yesā¦ I knowā¦ but he does expose information to normies who get their so called news (official narratives propaganda) from CNN, NPR, msnbc and government controlled mediasā¦
Tucker was one of my main sources and heroes and now my story single handedly exposes him and the rest of the conservative controlled opposition. My entire story is documented on my Substack with receipts and evidence.
The foolish elitistsā corollary to āyou shall own nothing and be happyā is āwe will own everything and be happy.ā It will more likely be similar to the French Revolution where nobody was happy or safe, especially for the elitists at the top.
Cheatle could have Ignored the Suponea like Herr Holder of the DOJ did under Obamy. She might have evaded consequences that Bannon & Navarro received with "only" a flimsy excuse of Executive Priviledge from the Deposed President Trump.
Welcome to life in the USSA where "expectations" never seem to quite materialize, but hopium and fentanyl/psych pharma drugs are in Ample Supply for the sheeples.
I heard a rumour that Howdy Gowdy, Repub Chairman of the fabled Benghazi Hearings may even return to show House Repubs how to "Really" nail down the evil doers. (sarc) because someone would probably think it would be a "Great Idea"!!!
Rinse & Repeat, Comrade. They/Them rinRats like democRats are Still Rats.
Though while expecting little from Them, We can Push Them further along the road to redemption........ by We/Me/You constantly pushing their noses into the Feral GrubMint's Excrement.
I absolutely think it was a test for whatās to come. We all need to flag this event. I keep trying to tell everyone I know that life is going to be very difficult in the next few months into next year.
I think the opposite. Iām so sure Trump has everything done for us and as soon as the country is told who is the President and who has been president since 2016, he will be able to show exactly what heās been doing. This coming week is another big week. Iām thinking money in our accounts that wasnāt there the previous day. That Balance will be big, especially if youāre over 61. We will get everything back that they stole from us for their Nefarious reasons. We will have one flat tax. So much will change pretty instantly. So not to argue or be mean, I have just kept my excitement level high, my vibrations high, staying away from social media and very close to Nature.
Niki: my suspicions were immediately in this direction. And maybe a warning something like ... 'we are watching you' and 'don't think you don't have vulnerabilities'. (Like being run out of business ... maybe.)
Some people here at C & C know things. And so, I am happy to listen to them and see what they say.
Strange, but I haven't been affected in the least and according to one map, my area was part of the target zone. I use Linux so maybe that made a difference.
My sister-in-law and brother-in-law were flying back to CA from a wedding in NY State yesterday and got stuck in Detroit overnight due to Delta cancelling their flight. They will eventually get back home....I think.
crowdstrike does sell software for Linux and managed to crash a couple flavors like debian a little while back with their crapware... it's just on the quiet because most industry is dumb enough to use window$ almost exclusively instead so when they crash that OS it is too big an event not to make the Nooz
you (or corporate IT if a business device) have to pay for crowdstrike "security" software to be affected. window$ itself is hot garbage but it was a kernel level access vulnerability triggered by bogus crowdstrike driver files which caused the issue.
it's hard to completely disable automatic updates on win 10 or 11. you can half ass disable them for a while in settings, but to actually turn them off requires registry edits and few people are comfy typing in things that could potentially brick your system if you enter any syntax errors or typos
SomeDude: my guess based on what you are saying is that this CrowdStrike thing was a targeted attack. And just purely guessing, quite possibly part of something larger ... maybe as to send some kind of message or warning. And maybe Selection Season connected ... as in something to do with voting and/or vote counting?
But what do I know? It just that the look of it stinks.
Just a guess. You were not targeted, but the servers (whichever ones) were. I think this is a totally good assumption. SomeDude below explains this very well.
Everyone downstream of what happened, especially medical facilities, 911 and airlines better be looking to switch to Linux or Apple asap. Honestly, they are just as much at fault for not having better backup strategies.
Same here. This was a Windows-specific version flaw. Mac & Linux were unaffected. It was an invalid bit of C++ code that accessed an off-limits memory address, causing windows to crash as a result. I have fixed dozens of them since Friday. No biggie.
I am typing this reply on Mint. That said, I have rolled out a few PCs using Pop!_OS (also debian.Ubuntu-based) and I like it very much. *We have options*. Just refrain from installing Microsoft Edge. Brave is great, and you can sync profiles between machines (even Windows).
Watch out! You could turn into a Super-Hero, at least in my book!
I use Mint and Mint has been my long time favorite. I have used Pops a good bit ... and Fedora somewhat, plus a quite a few other OSs most of which I switched out shortly after the install. I also notice that Mint has shot up in DistroWatches ranking list ... and battling it out with MXlinux. I can't figure it out, but MXlinus must hold some attraction for some people.
I use Cinnamon, and I like Mint Cinnamon better than having to load Cinnamon over Gnome in Pops!_OS. I like Mint's customizing features, and I think Mint's software store is better. And so hard to guess ... right. I'm writing on Mint too.
I have five browsers which I use. My favorite and most used is Yandex (the Google of Russia). I do use Brave and I also very much like Falkon. And all now working well on my System76 Oryx since it tested the memory, found it corrupted and replaced the old memory with an upgrade to 32 GB Crucial. the corrupted memory was, according to the terminal readout, something called Gold Star. I bet you never heard of them. And I bet System76 never used that brand again after the failure complaints began to roll in. Just a guess.
Well, thanks for the heads up. I never use Edge ... nothing MSFT at all. And I guess you can tell I always get excited over anything having to with Linux.
Yes, it only hit Windows operating system, not Linux or Apple so also most cell phones were fine because they don't typically run Windows. My computer was find because I don't have automatic updates available and it's old as the hills.
Close, but not true. The only ones affected were computers and servers running Windows, with Crowdstrike installed, and that were *running* when the update was released. People who shut down nightly and boot up in the morning were unaffected because they got the fixed update as soon as they connected to the internet.
Yes, but by bigger, it was a test to short a stock, hobble the product, and make a crap-ton of money when the stock plummets. That's all this was, kinda like how CNN suddenly started to broadcast Trump rallies on J13.
More cheating via the election machines?! I would venture to say. I dont want to be pessimistic but it feels impossible to win. So many people love Trump. Many have changed. But we all thought Trump would and did win in 2020
I agree - have you seen that creepy speech by the repellent Herr Schwab threatening humanity with a "cyber pandemic" that will bring almost the end of the world?!
These mafia goons have hijacked global power. And they're using it to commit evil.
Do you watch Yahweh's Restoration Ministry (YRM MINISTRY) on YouTube? They (and House of Yahweh) are the only church that I found that doesn't purposely falsify the Father's name.
I disagree with the statement things have calmed down a bit, no one has seen the president in six or seven days Kamala Harris apparently raised $81, million and 24 hours and itās caught on tape saying we still have Joe on the recā¦phone.. and Biden apparently or someone acting as Biden is delegating his presidential authority, this is a major shit show!
We have just witnessed the Left pull a soft coup on one of their own right in front of our eyes. They set up Biden to fail at the debate, tried to take out his opponent, and then forced Biden out to install the Cackler. And all in less than four weeks. Anyone who honestly thinks we are going to have a legitimate election in November isn't paying attention.
Looks like that. But what comes next? We will have to just tune into the Dem National Convention. Either it will be smooth sailing or upset apple carts. ???
While I agree with the first part of that statement, I think your forgetting that this DJT has his eyes wide open and knows more about the corrupt deep state then they could ever imagine. I think weāre watching the playing field be leveled and crowdstrike was a part of that.
I wonder how much of that $81 million was just reconfirming the 90 million that had been pulled when it looked like Buyden wasn't going to step down - if it's the same then they haven't raised any new money and in fact are still 9 million short
I agree. And someone on some video made the point that 'the announcement' of Dropout Joe was made on social network platform, not out of the White House. That is, a coup by a preemptive strike. Somehow, Someway ... another orchestrated show. Or so I am thinking for the moment.
Jeff, just an update on the crowdstrike crash... I did some digging
First, I'll note that the actual driver was not updated at the time of the crash, and has not been updated since the crash. The issue looks to be corrupt data files that are loaded into the driver. Drivers like the one they develop require a very non-trivial certification process, which made me suspect that it was bad code that got released. That aside, it was updated previously (for me anyway) on the 9th.
On my laptop, the update included 17 files, 4 or which were corrupt.
As I had reported the other day, the crash was not a simple null pointer (meaning an unchecked/uninitialized value of zero), but a rogue pointer, which is usually due to memory corruption or memory overrun.
Internally, the data files look (to a nerd ha) to have a fairly typical binary layout. However, the files in question contain corrupt binary values, values that represent offsets into the file, and values that are well beyond the length of the actual file. How this generally works is: the file gets read into memory, the program (in this case the driver) uses values in the memory block as addresses to jump around to other positions in the memory block, and so on, and so on, until the whole thing is processed. If one of those values is wrong then the program will read outside the bounds of the memory and then things blow up. Does this all sound fragile and unreliable, sure, and not to sound glib, but welcome to your computer.
Could (or should) the driver have done better checking to prevent this? Most likely. In this case they probably (and incorrectly) assumed it was a closed system (their driver, their files that they create, and all locked out of reach of most users), so there would be no issues. Unfortunately, somehow their release pipeline spit out a turd (which is still unacceptable btw).
"While initial reports focused on a dodgy update, a user named Brody, who is director of CrowdStrike Overwatch, posted on X (formerly Twitter) that it is 'a faulty channel file, so not quite an update.' "
Side note: given the likely audience of this stack, I think we should know enough by now to be skeptical of any post that begins with "and I have all these credentials" or "and I work at this important company" <cough zack cough>
Since we know Crowdstrike is deep state, and was involved in the coverup of the Seth Rich "hack" of the DNC emails, I tend to think they are war gaming for a total shutdown prior to the election. Yes, a conspiracy theory, but......
I understand very little about this but could it have been timed for the assassination which almost happened? Somehow tied into that to create even greater chaos? Then Trump lived. Now they need a cover up
I too am woefully ignorant, but the shorting of Trump's stock right before the assassination attempt seems like a smoking gun. Someone please explain where I am wrong here.
Canāt we just call them theories? Because they tend to always lead to facts. So conspiracy in front of it makes one think of secret people getting together to hatch a plot, and then executing it until it becomes fact. Kinda like the whole federal bureaucracy. All of it. They conspire, behind closed doors, daily, to create the news, leak it to their favored outlet of the day, then hold up their hands saying āmelts in your mouth not in your hands. ā no,the conspiracies happen around us hourly. We should refer to our suspicions as theories.
So, does this point to 'just accidental bad input' coding, or 'too stupid to just be accidental' ... or alternatively 'nobody can say, but has the smell of rotten fish'?
I don't know enough about coding to form a conclusion, and yet I am thinking in the direction of 'smells of rotten fish'.
Linux people are always telling that Linux hard to attack because of the kernel is isolated (well, maybe comparted to MSFT Windows and registries. I however, believe anything can be made by Man can penetrated and I am guessing that the cyber-genius in 'intelligence' have figure this all out long ago. But yet I have to put this all on the 'hunch rack' .... because of 'what do I know' and 'a little knowledge is dangerous'. And so my rubric is 'never assume based on whatever you merely think or suspect, but don't know or can't know'.
I was trying to just report the facts. The initial report by the google "expert" was claiming that it was a trivial coding error in an "unsafe" programming language. The "unsafe" part is just nonsense since that is the only language that drivers can be programmed in. The trivial coding error also turns out to be false.
R.e. accidental or not: it's anyone's guess but I'm just telling you what happened. Also, again, this wasn't a "coding" error so much as a borked data file error.
R.e. Linux... the windows/linux debate is a theological discussion as much as anything with tech (or wanna be) tech people. Yes windows has had more than it's share of problems, but also, until recently it had something like 90% of the desktop market, so MUCH bigger attack surface. Again, not a windows fan-boy, just stating facts. Also, note that Linux has a similar "big brother" type system like this crowdstrike driver called eBPF. It is claimed that it can't crash the operating system, but it can definitely do similar things like intercept (and change) data returned by low level system calls. The Linux version though is completely wild west and programs can can be installed by anyone with administrative access, vs the microsoft version that requires a physical security dongle to digitally sign (i.e. verify the validity of) the driver.
For those who are interested, I got a random solicitation in the mail for a magazine called 'Biblical Archeology Review' - it was only about $25 so I subscribed. There is a whole discipline out there of people who study ancient sites and provide context to the passages/places in the bible, it's interesting reading.
I've subscribed to that mag for over 5 years. The publisher organizes group archaeological tours of digs usually in Israel (as the surrounding nations are not overly friendly) that provide students of archaeology a chance to work a primary-level resource site.
Iām not a biblical person but Turkey has the house where Maria last lived, and theyāre a very friendly country. Plus: the original of The Last Meal was made in a cave in Cappadocia where monks had retreated after being persecuted by the Romans.
Thereās also an Archaeological Bible. I want to read though this Bible with itās additional archaeological articles lending supporting evidence to Biblical texts. Plus, I like pictures when I read š
All you have to is believe that Moses received the Torah from HaShem on mt Sinai. With that belief you are relieved from worrying about the truth of the Bible. Itās all true. Faith.
Yes, but the context is interesting - the stories of the bible take on more life when you understand more about how everything from the geography to the politics of the era played into the stories.
Well I know next to nothing about archeology, but always found it interesting. My son went through a hard core dinosaur phase in pre-school and early elementary and we did take him to a lot of natural history museums and even went to a couple of active paleontology dig sites while on vacations. There was one site in the Badlands of SD where the diggers let him down into the pit and explained what they were doing - he talked about that for months. So I learned stuff through him and also found that the discipline also has an 'expert' problem, where people with out PhD's are often marginalized and not taken seriously.
Yes, my daughter was obsessed with the Little House on the Prairie series, I read them the entire series when they were too young for chapter books, which then led to other books, and 'field trips' to museums and such. We even went to "Little House Days" in Mansfield MO. Definitely gained a lot of perspective for how tough life was for the early pioneers. Those people would laugh at how soft we have become today, myself included, lol.
We did our best. They are both independent adults with spouses and good jobs, but neither go to church and my daughter is a full on leftist. Of course I still love them fiercely and pray for them every day.
Oh my daughter did for sure. She and her hubby both got the first 2 and she screamed at us that we were going to 'kill her grandmas' by being around them unvaccinated, which she did later apologize for but shuts down the minute the topic has come up since. My son never bought into any of the fear porn but he and his now wife (who is a nurse and did not question the shot and refuses to talk to us about it) had booked a cruise for their honeymoon after their Sept 2021 wedding. If he did not get the shot he would not be able to get off the ship at any of the ports and would be restricted on the ship. So he caved. He has assured me that he has gotten no boosters since, and his employer never required the shot.
Interesting, of course another reason to question what we thought we knew as truth. Whether dinos were 'real' or not, the Sternberg museum in Hays KS does have a big collection of underwater creatures that swam through western KS when it was underwater, first specimens collected in the 1860's.
Thank you for sharing. Have you ever read any of Institute for Creation Researchās publications? They are also an excellent resource, not just for Creation issues, but well beyond in other Biblical areas as well. Highly recommend.
No, I have only gotten 2 issues of the magazine so far. I am old and still like reading on paper, but also have bandwidth issues. Had cut back on the number of subscriptions due to not being able to keep up but then added this one.....so many interesting subjects, and not enough hours in the day!
Jeff, you missed the highlight of the Cheatle hearings, when TX Rep. Pat Fallon admonished her to "go back to guarding Cheetos", referencing her former job as head of security for PepsiCo. BOOM.
My understanding is testimony gets it on the record which can then be used in a court case. It also sets a historical record for things that gets lost in the history books:
What pisses me off is these people get SUBPEONA'd and STILL SIT THERE AND LIE UNDER OATH AND DEFLECT QUESTIONS.
Sorry for yelling but this is just more waste of our tax dollars, and with every second of testimony I watched yesterday, it just seemed more and more fruitless, frustrating, and devoid of fact.
Why do people like Cheatle get away with such B.S. testimony? Someone needs to start using a really big gavel on these liars and cheats.
You sure seem easy to impress. Until people are arrest and tried for dereliction of duty and several other serious charges, the entire thing is meaningless.
My point was that before questioning she still had a job and after questioning she did not. I did not say that any other progress had been made. But your interpretation that it is all meaningless - I won't be able to counter that.
āBehold, bless the Lord, All you servants of the Lord, Who by night stand in the house of the Lord! Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, And bless the Lord. The Lord who made heaven and earth Bless you from Zion!ā
I will agree with the "these things do happen sometimes for Crowdstrike, but ... these things also have consequences like companies being sued out of existence for loss of revenue and breaches of contract. I fully expect that CrowdStrike will no longer exist within the year (probably sooner) just because of the lawsuits coming. If they do exist, it will be as a shell of its former self, begging customers to stay. Even now there's a lot of "we don't have a better option" talk but that is followed by the "but we're looking" hints.
No idea how Cheatle still has a job. Someone has to be protecting her. The gross incompetence and stonewalling and lying really can only go so far and you'd think that _every_ congress critter would be up in arms about this. If the directory of the SS can be political to allow assassination attempts against a person they don't like or were given orders to let it go, where does that stop? It definitely doesn't stop with Trump. If anything, it escalates. :(
Thankfully, The unfortunate thing about being protected is that she can and will be unprotected at any time. Not it really matter with respect to what is going on. Iām just thinking out loud .
It seems that 'if you are in the club', you can do no wrong. And that's the problem, nobody gets bounced (seldom, if ever). And no rule of law anywhere.
I think this country and our government is in a deep spiral. I trust nothing I hear or read ( except C and C ). It is very depressing actually. Enjoy your life. Live each day as if itās your last for surely one of these days you will be right. And pray. š
I feel you Cathy. I feel the exact same. And many agree - God has given his country over to their debased minds. If you listen to any solid preacher this literally means they cannot think. They cannot make sense. They are not rational. This is what we are dealing with. Once given over they do not come back.
Charlie Kirk reported that Biden had a Medical Emergency in Las Vegas last week. Covid these days is not an emergency, unless youāve had one too many drug cocktails. Bobert was demanding proof that Biden is still alive. Kamala flew to Delaware yesterday to visit Biden. Whatās going on?
Jordan Schachtel also did an in-depth piece using sources from the LVPD and local reports. His piece was posted late last night. Sounds like Biden had some sort of stroke that was probably treated on Air Force One. If they had taken Biden to the hospital, what happened would have become public, so the decision was made to high tail it back to Delaware in order to cover it up is my guess.
Get an MRI fast enough and the typical TIA white spots will show up on a brain scan if done within an hour or so of the obvious stroke symptoms clearing up.
Schactel's report of racing to a Las Vegas hospital with police clearing the roads and then suddenly diverting to Air Force 1 for a super fast flight to the east sounds to me like a TIA which began clearing up within about an hour of the 1st stroke symptoms.
I've a relative who had a TIA. I got her to an ER within 30 minutes of witnessing first symptoms. After 15-20 minutes in the ER her stroke symptoms of getting words out and some balance issues started to clear up. Got her into an MRI after less than 1 hour of arriving at the ER. The next morning the entire hospital neuro team was at her bedside slack jawed because most had never seen a live TIA patient with an MIR showing the TIA tiny white spots on any scans.
That's my thought especially since Biden walked off Air Force One by himself. Meds he would have been mostly ok to walk with some difficulty. And that might explain why he may be well enough to return to the White House.
I read the Snopes fact check but it's dated 2020. It's true he did not have a TIA as part of his health record, but at his age now, a TIA would explain why there was an emergency but yet also explain why he could leave Air Force One under his own steam, albeit gingerly.
Let us know if you "see" Dirty Joe at all today as he's supposed to meet with P.M. Netanyahu from Israel who is visiting to "give me more funds" solicit from our U. S. Congress for the "Gaza War".
Or perhaps the press will just totally "blindside" us and give us the AI version of the "State get together"!!! I hardly believe ANYTHING I see in still photos anymore!
I wonder if enough Americans have learned that DEI is giving us some of the most incompetent decision makers since so many of those women and minorities have been publicly exposed (Harvard and Penn presidents, Kim Cheatle, etc.) that it will help defeat Harris. Of course, Dems will never be able to come to grips with reality, so there's that.....
It is for the elderly. My FIL in dementia care couldn't get himself out of bed & 2 others went to the hospital. So far only 1 came back. I quietly brought him the FLCCC protocol and the next day, he got himself up & a few days later he wanted to leave his room.
I was listening to Mark Levin in the car last night and he played a clip where AOC, of all people were grilling Cheatle! Wow upside down world for sure, and AOC actually sounded somewhat lucid in her rant.
Also saw where Lauren Boebert was tweeting that she wanted 'proof of life' by 5 PM. Don't think she got her request. A second secret service failure?
I think the angle is that she gets lots of threats herself (there are plenty of loons on the right) and she suddenly realized the people tasked to protect her are morons.
Yes that makes sense. But I still canāt help but wonder if thereās more. Because I donāt think theyāre just morons, I think there was something more deliberate about it. But maybe sheās worried about the same people wanting her gone too.
It is all bizarro world. The worst part of it is that I am super busy at work right now and my phone will not stop blowing up with people texting stuff, and it is so distracting. My productivity has sucked ever since the 13th, as have my hours of sleep due to late night scrolling on X.
When covid hit, though I had been a traditional church goer all my life, my church closed for 3 months. Nothing. I rediscovered God when I started attending a charismatic church that reopened after only a monthās closure. They reopened maskless, full praise band in attendance. I kept attending because the pastor was Biblical based in all his teaching and asks us every week if we have our Bibles with us. As I have gone along now, nearly four years, in, there are things that donāt mesh with my traditional church upbringing, so I have returned at times to my old church. My husband would never leave our old church. I had to forgive a lot of covid excesses at the old church, but I have come to appreciate that people were frightened and just needed to be told what to do. They were the sheep, so to speak, but the shepherd was not the Good Shepherd but the Prince of Lies. Many now realize that they were gaslit and lied to. They may not say it aloud, but they know. Weāll see where the rubber meets the road.
I find myself, too often scrolling through this substack reading through comments. This is the only substack I follow, though I often read, other commenters suggestions. I am not on X and most social media, but I can still too often find myself going down online rabbit holes. I have to stop and ask myself if this is what Jesus really wants me doing? Is this my God given purpose? The answer is No. so, I pull back and start over again to find my gift from God and use it.
I don't think there is a single person on this page that has not had changes in their lives since 2020, and have had to deal with the feeling of loss in one way or another. Including changing churches, friend groups, jobs and so on. While most of us have not met in person we are a kind of 'family', and have learned a lot and gotten a lot of encouragement here.
I agree that balance is key, life in rabbit holes is not a great life, although it's hard for me. I do (business) research for a living and have for over 25 years now and digging into stuff is in my blood. But am also really into my flower beds which is my opportunity to unplug, reflect and pray.
Then we really do have something else in common, one of my many loves is flowers and my Michigan flowers keep expanding against my best efforts to throttle down. Being outside is a great calming influence. This is a place where many of us have so much in common.
I ADORE growing beautiful flowers, Donna - and looking at them always REAFFIRMS my belief in the CREATOR OF ALL LIFE!!! Thank you for posting this about what you do to offset the stressful 'aura' of today's world.
About half of our yard is flower beds. This time of year it's 30 min to an hour a day most days, more on the weekend. I have been transitioning to more perennials in the past few years but you can't beat annuals for continuous color. Of course the MO season is roughly March - Oct/Nov with some random clean up days in the winter. But I also have a lot of house plants. Have a few pepper plants on my deck but have mostly given up on vegetables as we have too much shade and too many squirrels/rabbits/raccoons.
WOW--our growing season here in southcentral PA is from late April to late October and I have chosen to stick with "annuals" for my yearly "plantings". My friend, Jeff, with whom I cohabit is a magnificent gardener and landscaper - he took the "tangled mess of illogical plantings" all around this condo he bought in late 2019 and now 5 years later...it is pristine and SO magical to observe as his perennials are usually a delight. He has had to "move around" some of them as they weren't getting sufficient sun to thrive. He finally found a perennial that thrives in "shade" - called ASTILBE--do you know of it, Donna? I am an avid gardener...but not as knowledgeable as Jeff. I wish I could share some "BEFORE" and " AFTER " pics of this condo!!
KEEP ON PLANTING, Donna!! As the saying goes..."You're closest to God in a garden!!"
Donna, today is the first day in a week I have felt productive on the job, so you are not alone.
I learned a long time ago to turn off my phone during working hours. Honestly, I'd never get any work done if my phone was always blowing up with "breaking news," texts from friends/family, app notifications, etc. I know this is very 70's behavior, but the information overload is a killer for me, and I was a lot less stressed in the 70's!
I didn't even know until 7+ hours after the fact that Cheatle resigned, and I'm no worse off for not knowing. :)
Well I am in the middle of a project where I am making a lot of phone calls. So I am stuck with leaving my phone on in case I get a call back. But yeah if I am in a research/report writing mode I do tune out. And the only notification I have turned on is for severe weather on my weather app. Actually have very few apps on my phone, I do most things on a laptop. But 3 emails and they are all out of control.
Some people think sheās a plant. I couldnāt see it but in hindsight she has definitely had situations that have moved us forward in this ā¦ show. Yesterday was a š¤ for sure. We may never know but itās interesting.
Thank you for that in depth segment about the Ukraine debacle.
And yes, despite their desire to prove otherwise, archeology has consistently found evidence confirming the historical accuracy of the Bible. Places, people, times, have continuously been corroborated.
Not only is this a Ukraine debacleā¦itās a defense debacle. Maybe Trump can scrape together enough TNT to blow up the Pentagon and start over.
We go to war with the army that we have.
Donald Rumsfeld
I don't like Donald Rumsfeld, I think he was a snake, and showed signs of psychopathy for pushing aspartame through, for profit, regardless of its harms. Among other travesties. But I love the truth of that quote, its stark reality guaranteed it would be attacked, and it was.
It shows how money comes before strategy.
I think it just speaks an obvious truth, no need to read between any lines. It does have many serious implications you could write a book about. But, the sentence itself is pure unvarnished reality. I'm a big fan of that.
We go to war with the aspartame we have. A toxic tactical alternative.
And deadlier than our star wars high tech boondoggles
The ammunition will come later on.
Ammunition is here now. The Czech initiative came through.
Wouldn't THAT be a wondrous "first" for 45 to undertake - destroy the NEOCON citadel!!!
After reading J. C. 's blog for today...all I can say is..... "God's GRACE is magnificently shed on the once "United" States of America.
We have a SURPLUS OF FOOLS at the helms of so many CRUCIAL departments within the Federal government that one wonders how we EVER lasted as long as we have..... 09/11 was a precursor, friends...our ENEMIES know how feckless our leadership is - for now...they probably consider us "useful idiots"....we are indebted to China for floating bonds to subsidize our MASSIVE Federal deficit (that will NEVER go away)...and we are indebted to Russia for NOT attacking us from the Aleutian Islands - using TNT resources that are CHEAP and EFFECTIVE and that we apparently DO NOT POSSESS anymore.
As I've written too many times in the past 4 1/2 years...
ALMIGHTY GOD...SAVE US FROM OUR 'LEADERS'!!
Shalom! I yearn for the day when "their swords will be beaten into plowshares" (paraphrased) https://biblehub.com/isaiah/2-4.htm
I think youāre onto something!
BEST IDEA YET
And the UE parliamentary building looks like the Tower of Babel, they always say itās all in plain sight for those with eyes to see....
And also, scientific discoveries keep agreeing with the Bible, not debunking it. Remember how God said the Israelites should circumcise their infant sons on the 8th day? Guess what day infants have the highest blood clotting factor?
You guessed it---
Good thing I was only 8 days old. I wouldnāt want to remember that.
I had an archeologist walk through the Jericho ruins, reviewing the notes from the original excavation when I was visiting Israel several years ago. All notes lined up with the Biblical account, but the conclusion was exactly the opposite. It was a fascinating visit and just one of many things confirming the Bible
Yes. See Immanuel Velikovsky. http://www.varchive.org/
Those books were so great!
The. Bible š you idiots still believe in the cloud wizard. HAHA!!
If thatās your take on God, this wonāt be an echo chamber for you. I sincerely hope your eyes are opened and you choose to see.
The Bible is a fascinating and often reliable source of history. The human āchoiceā to settle down and build settlements meant the earth was no longer a garden, but needed constant tending. Life expectancy plummeted due to war and disease. All well documented and defensible based on other available evidence.
As for the magic wizards, I try to skip those parts.
Our Bible says that it was written by men inspired by God. Who wrote what you believe, Scott?
Explain all that to Jesus when your face to face with him
I hate to break the news to you, but heās dead. Big hole in his side where he bled out. Heās been a corpse for thousands of years.
You forgot about Easter!
Nah, he just thinks it's made up. Maybe one day he'll realize that the alternatives are far more improbable.
Cheatle should have stayed home. What a monumental waste of time and first rate snooze fest....though the tough talk was palpable. 9 days into this and provides ZERO answers, ZERO clarity and more confusion....the ol' "I'm not going to comment during an ongoing investigation" ploy. A hackneyed example of bureaucratic stonewalling. (Paging Dr. Fauci.) Slopeheaded dope. I've got to try using that strategy at home. I bet I get slapped.
She knows more than she lets on, I'm convinced she knew about the plot.
But, of course. Another tool of the "Establishment." Sheās either a willing participant or they've got something on her....real or manufactured.
Itās a spiritual war. Satan doesnāt care who wins. Any war and any death is good to him. Cheatle is an agent of darkness, willingly or unwillingly. As for me, Iāll suffer and die as a Christian because this life isnāt even a blink of an eye compared to eternity.
We will probably be called to do JUST THAT, D.D. GOD HELP US TO BE COURAGEOUS IN THE FACE OF THE ONSLAUGHT OF LUCIFER AND HIS MINIONS!
WE went from the "Obamanation" and apparently the whore of Babylon is what they have in mind for us next. I was thinking that Joe Biden was the anti-Christ, but maybe that was really Kamala. Mitch McConnell is trying to say Whoa on this latest power grab, and Cheatle has resigned. Some good news at least.
Read Mart Armstrong's blog from today, Virtue - Marty has access to the "rumblings" within our government and those Western nations across the globe!! Kamala will NOT be the DEMONrats' POTUS candidate!!

Willing participant. 10 bucks says she hates Trump
$100 she'll quit, golden parachute, case closed. Evgerything swept under the BIG rug.
Thomas came into this world, did his homework, to show that a lad with motivations to bring the house down on a Billion dollar a year security .GOV Gig.
With little more than items we can all buy from a sporting goods store, and with a little luck, find a huge gap to set up/ stroll thru with his own low tech drone vision.
I am truly saddened about civilians death and injuries. My vote of no confidence in any current SS abilities is off the hook. Just like the view from the drone. Ouch!
We can see it too !!! Laid back and lax.
More was afoot than a little luck.
Who is Thomas?
Thomas Matthew Crooks
the shooter
Alleged shooter.
The first shot could not have physically come from Crooks position. At least from sources Iāve seen/read. God knows Iām clueless re ballistics but seems Iāve stumbled upon some who are experts in the field.
How insane that they can see the use of using others like waste paper but can't imagine anyone would see themselves that same way. š½ šŖ So long cabbage head. So long Thomas. So long jeff Eph. So long... So long...
Use people then discard like yesterdayās garbage.
Dems ought to be apoplectic over being used/manipulated into āJoeās fineā & capable to run for prez. He alone can save you. Vote early & often.
Then BOOM; heās no longer useful as a manipulative front guy. Get rid of him fast & replace w/ another stooge.
So what you Dems took time to vote for Joe in ur primaries. Trust us & do what we tell you to do.
Donāt Dems see how the Party of caring for all āgenders,ā illegals, BLM, & little people is FAKE???
Once they do as told (again) theyāll be sidelined until next call up.
Rinse & repeat. Mercy! Sheeple.
Red State and Eugyppius have some interesting articles today about the "soft coup" perpetrated by the democrat elite where they forced Joe out under threats of invoking the 25th. And now enough delegates have said they'll vote for Kamala as the new running mate to Trump (prior to any dem convention); they have successfully picked a new candidate without a vote ever being cast in a primary for her.
Kind of reminds me of Bullwinkle--"Hey Rocky! Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!"
The whole ploy is just so bizarre.
Weird the way their minds work. No consistency of thought. Also funny how such people gravitate to powerful positions. I think their shallowness give them a palpable (but unjustified) self-confidence and belief in their own entitlement that seems to be the single most useful trait for attaining power in a pathocracy, which is what we have.
During the Afghanistan war, intel folks couldnāt understand why Al Qaeda and Taliban were working together, since they were mortal enemies. Turns out, The Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend. After defeating their mutual enemy, apparently, they would then war with each other for the spoils. The Dems apply this same tactic. The people they collaborate with and consider ādisposable,ā i.e. Cheatle, et. al., are also euphemistically referred to as Useful Idiotsā¦..behind their backs, of course.
This IS MAN'S history... Destiny.
Or Camela as POTUS & Barack as VPOTUS?
Theyāre going to run Michelle Obama for POTUS and Barack Obama for VPOTUS.
A new book by James Perloff describes how the body guard for Lincoln left his post at the theater. He was never punished, but others were sentenced to jail time. Seems like same playbook.
WOW, never knew that. Agree on the similarities.
Wasn't she the first lady's first choice for the position and well liked by her? Strange how on the same day the first lady had a surplus of agents at her event leaving Trumps with a deficit. Now, no talkie-talkie?
With only a 3 day in advance plan!
which, according to Naomi Wolf is an IMPOSSIBILITY
Exactly!
She obviously has been threatened to remain silent .
that is how the demonocrats work, kill off your opponent.
The CIA just put a new order in for horse heads ...........
Threats or promises. The list of those in this category is getting very long indeed.
Being Jill's close friend, I'm sure the two were trying to improve the odds for a Biden reelection.
No doubt
She knows about the plot, and spent her remaining time as Director shredding documents or covering for her co-workers. Either one of those, or both, explains why she stayed on so long.
Iām sure she got a nice severance packageā¦
I wonder how long she would last ....... with a little guy proficient in waterboarding asking
her to come out with the truth !
oh yeah, we don't do that kind of thing anymore (wink, wink )
She was told she'd better keep her mouth shut.
Why isn't the Congressional committee asking her if the 'colossal failure' was INTENTIONAL??!!
All congressional hearings are nothing but theater to give the appearance that they are doing SOMETHING.
at this point I seriously wonder why we bother with congress at all as they have declined to fulfill their share of the government since o say never declaring war from vietnam forward.
Getting in Congress is akin to hitting the lottery.
I always wondered why they kept voting down bills that would make Congressional insider trading unlawful....š¤Ø
I always wonder why they get to vote on their own benefits.
No shit
Iām starting to believe this - absolute twilight zone watching this circus unfold
Who can remain sane when all is insanity? Christ is our only hope. There is no other who has truth. So thankful is it written down forever!
He is the only constant in a shifting world of chaos & turmoil
My pastor's message last Sunday: "The same yesterday, today and tomorrow." Zero deviation!
Oh, I like this!
ā¤ļø
Bottom line- hearing was a total show! Those with critical thinking skills know the attemptā was an inside job!!
I loved the Twilight Zone SO much I bought the DVD series!
Several of the episodes apply to today's circus. Almost like Rod was creating predictive programming!
Speaker "Hakeem" Johnson will ignore that remark. The UniRat* Party just Fully Funded a New FIB HQ so they/them can properly investigate and file "pigeon hole" this crucial evidence in the room with the Hunter Laptop / Weiner Laptop (forgot about that one didn't you? :-)
* Rat Party= democRat$ & rinoRat$
and now wiener ex "engaged " to "soros " kid?!?!?
Keeping "It" all in the Mother WEFer family, Comrade.
Viewing Weiner's laptop supposedly made NYPD "murder detectives" Throw Up.
Epistein/Clintoons/ & Others. Data Trove also on Twitter Servers, Stay Tuned and keep nausea remedy close by.
God's timing is perfect...HE will bring justice upon the evildoers at the right time.
Can never forget the Weiner Laptop nor the young woman who had a young daughter in the car with her gunned down in October 2013 at the Obama white house.
Only on the right. The left throws people in jail for defying Congressional summonses.
My thoughts exactly. Congress was outragedā¦. So?
Those government actors are professionally outraged all the time, yet what difference does it make?
ā¤ļø
Congress has to prove it's worth SOMEHOW.
How about WE ( U.S. Citizens ) need to prove our worth. We've allowed criminal intelligence agencies, corporate bribes, morale degradation - ( Start your own list ). MAGA ain't gonna be fast or easy.
what, isn't President Obama, Biden, and potentially Harris who all came from Congress proof enough of their "worth"?
Well, it IS nice to get them on record and such, for perjury reasons. Since they ALL perjure themselves.
They have no power. The ONLY thing they can do is file a charge w/ the DOJ. They look useless because they're hamstringed. Mayorkas controls all charges filed.
All theyād need to do is combine the onsite investigations with all the crowdsourced analysis happening online and theyād be done. Thereās even audio forensics analysis happening to determine shot distances and counts. Why go to congress without even a timeline? Only a few reasons.
John Cullen (on X) has done an interesting deep dive into J13. He solved the Vegas shooting. Fascinating guy.
I just listened to Darkhorse Podcast (Brett Weinstein) interview him about what he has found so far. I appreciate his willingness to be wrong...if only someone would provide evidence that he's wrong.
Heās ignored largely because he ends up being correct. I watched the same podcast- had never heard of him. I also very much appreciated his willingness to amend his conclusion(s) upon receipt of much more needed information.
Hope he isnāt epsteined any time soon.
The wolf guarding the hen house?
They always are...just a waste of time. The cliff notes version is always the same.
Q: Why did you screw up?
A: I didn't.
OK, lets have a drink now
no.
why did you screw up?
i dont recall. Or I donāt remember. or I plea the fifth. Or its an ongoing investigation I canāt comment.
Just like ācircle backā Psaki!
Something I noticed yesterday while watching the congressional hearing is how, miraculously, there was so much bipartisan cooperation exposing this train wreck of a SS director. Even AOC sounded more like a rational person than unhinged Nancy Mace. On the surface, all the cooperation looked great but I couldn't help but wonder why there wasn't all this cooperation to impeach Mayorkis. Yes, attempted assassination is horrible but how many Americans have been victims of illegal migrants (death, rape, human trafficking, drugs, etc)?
What was unhinged about Nancy Mace?
Swearing, name calling, the kind of talk unbecoming of a Congresswoman. There are intelligent ways to articulate oneself.
I agree. She insisted on Yes/No answers to stop Cheatle's gaslighting and prevarication. That was good.
But she undermined herself with her vulgarity/swearing.
Agree. I'm old enough to think people in positions of power (on any side) should set a good example, which in my book does not include swearing and vulgar language. It's a symptom of lazy thinking and disrespect for everyone listening.
Nothing wrong with her saying what everyone watching was feeling. She just had the guts to do it.
Agree
I thought she was incredible. Like a brunette mtg
YES
Good observation.
Those dems that were cooperating see themselves possibly as victims, therefore the interest in a competent secret service. Saving their own butts.
She never even went to the scene.
How about the fact that she didn't even know the history of previous directors (e.g. the Director who resigned following the attempt on Reagan)? You'd think some staffer would have given her a little primer. Again. These people operate with impunity. They will never be held to account for anything no matter how massive the screw up. See exhibit A: Anthony Fauci, exhibit B: Deborah Birx.
Someone needs to check her timeline about her career.
What year did she first retire from the Secret Service?
Was it the year Trump was elected?
What time frame did she work for Pepsi?
What year did she leave Pepsi and go back into government service?
Was it when Joe Biden stole the election?
LIKE
well Harris never went to border, yet she was the "border czar". Why do they need to go? Their actions and answers will be the same
Regardless of the politician, regardless of the party, and regardless of the crisis, making a trip to the site is usually little more than a photo op. A statement that they "care". And with filming and photos of the realities at the site, the politician can usually get an even better viewing of situation than the one or two staged photo op photoshoots provides. So even if Kamala did go to the border, it would have been a meaningless gesture of concern. What is more helpful would be an accurate assessment of the problems and issues by authorities, citizens, and victims on the ground. But "a man sees what he wants to see and disregards the rest". (Simon & Garfunkel) And when maintaining an agenda is the priority, that's all that matters.
Like I said, the answers will be the same whether they go or not
If you think this was a waste of time, I can't wait for FBI director Wray's "testimony". We can spare us all the drama. His answer to every question will be, "This is an ongoing investigation. We do not comment on ongoing investigations."
It will be the same, but with 10x the smugness.
but Worthless Wray will possibly regurgitate some more on the Violent Domestic Deplorable Insurgents as his FIB is still arreSSting those Insurgents from Jan 6th 2021, while Meritless Garland sends We the People off to the Feral Gulags.
At least Old Slo Joe survived the Stalinist-Nuland democRat Coup ..... didn't he??? Seems a purrfect time to have a USSA Stateless Funeral to displace all this "conspiracy talk".
I'm beginning to get a glimpse of life in the USSR, comrades. Ain't it fun???
Hilarity Rotten Clintoon is not out of the POTUS picture either and she certainly remarked that Deplorables need a "Happy Camp" trip. (of course I'm wearing the tin foil hat for remembering the Clintonistas........ or perhaps the Obamaites can "save us"??? Again as in 2008.
Sheesh, I've run out of spittle.
Under withering bipartisan crossfire, āmistakesā were made. Nothing burger once again. Cheatle will resign and another inept, āI know nothingā, will take her place.
Cheatle will not really resign ... she will fail up, as Democrats always do, landing a cushy position in the Harris administration.
She just resigned
Golden parachute-EVERYTHING swept undera big rug. "See, we made her resign!" End of story.
They Them will try but We Me You can refuse to let it "move on."
Post contrary links, and Speak out. Surprising How many people think It was an Inside Job !!!
VP perhaps.
I bet Sgt Schultz would give more meaningful answers than Cheatle!
She just resigned.
She just resigned!!!
I just saw this too.
Yeah it was pretty sadā¦I couldnāt believe I actually agreed with AOC! š³ What the heck is happening?!
But all of AOC's ire is just cover for her real goal: using this event to push for gun control. That's what all the libs are doing in their rantings. Yes, they acknowledge the failure of the process, but then lament, "if only we didn't have so many guns in our country!"
I suspect AOC wants Trump to win.
She and her pals can more easily act up, incite riots etc., when he's in the White House. She's like a bolshy adolescent - they need to fight an authority figure and ol' Joe was not that.
AGREE
Unlike other false flag ( government sponsored terror) events of the past , with todayās citizen journalism and eye witness accounts and videos, we already know the truth .
Clearly a cliche nonanswer
She was hired for specific reasons and competency on securing Presidents wasnāt one of them. So she wont be fired for her incompetence in that area either.
I had all those reports on my kitchen table prior to heading out the door for this hearing.
It was left next to a beef roast thawing out on the counter next to the files, we have a four year old Great Dane with the nose of a blood hound. Our dog Rocky ate all that homework.
I will file this under the SS/ Cheat-R Dog Saga.
Haha!
Rocky sounds smart.
Reminds me of a local hunter here who told me the opposite about one of his dogs.
He told me: "those 2 over there are great but this one [affectionate pat on the ear], he couldn't find a leg of lamb on a kitchen table" !
she should be drug tested before appearing--STONER most likely
https://www.marcpalasciano.com/p/why-exposing-t-mobile-is-important
Horrifyingā¦ thank you for sharing albeit a hopeless seemingly irreversible state for we the peopleā¦
Thank you for appreciating it! Iām 10 months into this and I completely underestimated how much controlled opposition is in our world.
Considering the depth of this elaborate coup global takeover, and yes the elaborate matrix of controlled op coverup, not even Tucker would chance exposing itā¦ while diving deeper into this WEF coupā¦ I canāt help but think of Seth Richā¦ carefulā¦..
Tucker is controlled oppositionā¦
He's openly saying the attempt to kill Trump is a deep state plot and you are calling him controlled opposition? You need to stop calling everyone "controlled opposition" who doesn't believe every single thing you believe.
lol - itās ok you still havenāt figured it out
Yesā¦ I knowā¦ but he does expose information to normies who get their so called news (official narratives propaganda) from CNN, NPR, msnbc and government controlled mediasā¦
Tucker was one of my main sources and heroes and now my story single handedly exposes him and the rest of the conservative controlled opposition. My entire story is documented on my Substack with receipts and evidence.
Definitely on my reading scheduleā¦ stay safeā¦
Thanks! Iāve been at this point all of 2024 so Iām used to it and welcome it.
T-Mobile is different than AT&T, Verizon, Crowd Strike, etc. ??? Whatever, perhaps the Answer to AI is in Ben Franklin's Lightning Experiment.
Electricity the Alpha & the Omega of Civilization.
Yup - only one you listed is the German government and digital arm of the WEF. You should read my expose, Iām now censored on every single platform for exposing T-Mobile. https://www.marcpalasciano.com/p/every-american-should-know-this-about
I read it, Seems quite Logically Tyrannical from a Mother WEFer view. My point is They/Them "never put all their eggs in one basket".

Makes you wonder if the CrowdStrike mess was a planned test run for something bigger. Feels like we are living in a movie.
I absolutely think it was a test for whatās to come. We all need to flag this event. I keep trying to tell everyone I know that life is going to be very difficult in the next few months into next year.
I think the opposite. Iām so sure Trump has everything done for us and as soon as the country is told who is the President and who has been president since 2016, he will be able to show exactly what heās been doing. This coming week is another big week. Iām thinking money in our accounts that wasnāt there the previous day. That Balance will be big, especially if youāre over 61. We will get everything back that they stole from us for their Nefarious reasons. We will have one flat tax. So much will change pretty instantly. So not to argue or be mean, I have just kept my excitement level high, my vibrations high, staying away from social media and very close to Nature.
AGREE Sweettea. November 2024
Oh it was, I can see Crowdstrike happening during the so called elections. All computerized voting booths down forever.
Only if infiltrated with red votes. Blue votes get counted twice so problem. And if itās an obvious minority voting, they get ten times the value.
So no problem
Niki: my suspicions were immediately in this direction. And maybe a warning something like ... 'we are watching you' and 'don't think you don't have vulnerabilities'. (Like being run out of business ... maybe.)
Some people here at C & C know things. And so, I am happy to listen to them and see what they say.
Strange, but I haven't been affected in the least and according to one map, my area was part of the target zone. I use Linux so maybe that made a difference.
I had to order my coffee in person on Friday! My App didnāt work. The horror, the horror..
As Dire Straits puts it
"Maybe get a blister on your little finger

My sister-in-law and brother-in-law were flying back to CA from a wedding in NY State yesterday and got stuck in Detroit overnight due to Delta cancelling their flight. They will eventually get back home....I think.
Ahhh goodāol Romulus airport.
crowdstrike does sell software for Linux and managed to crash a couple flavors like debian a little while back with their crapware... it's just on the quiet because most industry is dumb enough to use window$ almost exclusively instead so when they crash that OS it is too big an event not to make the Nooz
I do use Microsoft on my desktop, and I wasn't affected. But then I try to avoid updates, so maybe my computer wasn't updated with the bug.
you (or corporate IT if a business device) have to pay for crowdstrike "security" software to be affected. window$ itself is hot garbage but it was a kernel level access vulnerability triggered by bogus crowdstrike driver files which caused the issue.
it's hard to completely disable automatic updates on win 10 or 11. you can half ass disable them for a while in settings, but to actually turn them off requires registry edits and few people are comfy typing in things that could potentially brick your system if you enter any syntax errors or typos
SomeDude: my guess based on what you are saying is that this CrowdStrike thing was a targeted attack. And just purely guessing, quite possibly part of something larger ... maybe as to send some kind of message or warning. And maybe Selection Season connected ... as in something to do with voting and/or vote counting?
But what do I know? It just that the look of it stinks.
Avoid updates and malware protection. I believe thats a big part
Just a guess. You were not targeted, but the servers (whichever ones) were. I think this is a totally good assumption. SomeDude below explains this very well.
Maybe....JUST MAYBE, this will FINALLY be the year of the Linux desktop.
Everyone downstream of what happened, especially medical facilities, 911 and airlines better be looking to switch to Linux or Apple asap. Honestly, they are just as much at fault for not having better backup strategies.
It's hard to find good Linux knowledgeable staff.
Looks like my marketability just went up.
SomeDude, Some Interesting Info. Thanks. I understand a lot of servers run on Linux because it is faster.
I read that Linux and Mac were not affected.
Same here. This was a Windows-specific version flaw. Mac & Linux were unaffected. It was an invalid bit of C++ code that accessed an off-limits memory address, causing windows to crash as a result. I have fixed dozens of them since Friday. No biggie.
Thanks. I a Linux Mint user and only know enough to keep my machines up and running. I always appreciate your kind of info.
I am typing this reply on Mint. That said, I have rolled out a few PCs using Pop!_OS (also debian.Ubuntu-based) and I like it very much. *We have options*. Just refrain from installing Microsoft Edge. Brave is great, and you can sync profiles between machines (even Windows).
Watch out! You could turn into a Super-Hero, at least in my book!
I use Mint and Mint has been my long time favorite. I have used Pops a good bit ... and Fedora somewhat, plus a quite a few other OSs most of which I switched out shortly after the install. I also notice that Mint has shot up in DistroWatches ranking list ... and battling it out with MXlinux. I can't figure it out, but MXlinus must hold some attraction for some people.
I use Cinnamon, and I like Mint Cinnamon better than having to load Cinnamon over Gnome in Pops!_OS. I like Mint's customizing features, and I think Mint's software store is better. And so hard to guess ... right. I'm writing on Mint too.
I have five browsers which I use. My favorite and most used is Yandex (the Google of Russia). I do use Brave and I also very much like Falkon. And all now working well on my System76 Oryx since it tested the memory, found it corrupted and replaced the old memory with an upgrade to 32 GB Crucial. the corrupted memory was, according to the terminal readout, something called Gold Star. I bet you never heard of them. And I bet System76 never used that brand again after the failure complaints began to roll in. Just a guess.
Well, thanks for the heads up. I never use Edge ... nothing MSFT at all. And I guess you can tell I always get excited over anything having to with Linux.
Nice to know about Brave. Thanks!
Same here, only Iām a Mac.
My vaccum cleaner store was still down Monday. Cash or check only. Florida.
Yes, it only hit Windows operating system, not Linux or Apple so also most cell phones were fine because they don't typically run Windows. My computer was find because I don't have automatic updates available and it's old as the hills.
Linux wasn't affected.
Close, but not true. The only ones affected were computers and servers running Windows, with Crowdstrike installed, and that were *running* when the update was released. People who shut down nightly and boot up in the morning were unaffected because they got the fixed update as soon as they connected to the internet.
It's All a Movie until it comes knocking at your door and I'm not talking about just a FIB raid.
Grid Down, No Electricity, Try Living in 1880, 90% Failure Rate.
Yes, but by bigger, it was a test to short a stock, hobble the product, and make a crap-ton of money when the stock plummets. That's all this was, kinda like how CNN suddenly started to broadcast Trump rallies on J13.
Could be...or they could be making up by shorting Crowdstrike as the short on the DJT stock didn't work when the assasination failed.
And yes, a movie, but when I see the weird clots, heart attacks, turbo cancers, etc., it's more like a nightmare.
Someone made a crap load of money shorting them
Yep, just like shorting Trump's stock just before trying to kill him. There are no coincidences, only undiscovered truths.
Like 911 ... and if making a boat load of money, then connected.
More cheating via the election machines?! I would venture to say. I dont want to be pessimistic but it feels impossible to win. So many people love Trump. Many have changed. But we all thought Trump would and did win in 2020
also. So.
I agree - have you seen that creepy speech by the repellent Herr Schwab threatening humanity with a "cyber pandemic" that will bring almost the end of the world?!
These mafia goons have hijacked global power. And they're using it to commit evil.
Much bigger! Iām thinking around election time.
You can "Put-Bet" your last dollar on that. Wait, that might be backwards. Nevermind.
I'm not scared of anything these people attempt. There are billions of us and a few thousand of them.

Do you watch Yahweh's Restoration Ministry (YRM MINISTRY) on YouTube? They (and House of Yahweh) are the only church that I found that doesn't purposely falsify the Father's name.
I have not.
I disagree with the statement things have calmed down a bit, no one has seen the president in six or seven days Kamala Harris apparently raised $81, million and 24 hours and itās caught on tape saying we still have Joe on the recā¦phone.. and Biden apparently or someone acting as Biden is delegating his presidential authority, this is a major shit show!
We have just witnessed the Left pull a soft coup on one of their own right in front of our eyes. They set up Biden to fail at the debate, tried to take out his opponent, and then forced Biden out to install the Cackler. And all in less than four weeks. Anyone who honestly thinks we are going to have a legitimate election in November isn't paying attention.
Looks like that. But what comes next? We will have to just tune into the Dem National Convention. Either it will be smooth sailing or upset apple carts. ???
Only The Shadow knows. Or maybe Obama?
Truth bomb!
Agree
While I agree with the first part of that statement, I think your forgetting that this DJT has his eyes wide open and knows more about the corrupt deep state then they could ever imagine. I think weāre watching the playing field be leveled and crowdstrike was a part of that.
What is SO frustrating is we see it, but the dems just keep on their rat-free rosy glasses as IF all is okay
Exactly my feeling!!!!!!!
I wonder how much of that $81 million was just reconfirming the 90 million that had been pulled when it looked like Buyden wasn't going to step down - if it's the same then they haven't raised any new money and in fact are still 9 million short
Well, there was the threat from a mega donor that they wouldn't get the 90 million until Biden was off the ballot.
Well son of a b*itch, what do you know, they fired him.
Ironic words to go out on.
He reaped what he sowed.
So will she...
awesome - comment of the year
Good one Justin!
That sounds more likely. The big money folks stopped giving when Biden wouldn't leave.
She meant to say record player yeah not recording. Joe is talking on the record player...

Hopefully they will not be able to steal this election too, and things will calm down on January 20th . Before then, God help us and God SAVE THE USA
We may be about to learn just how good AI really is.
I agree. And someone on some video made the point that 'the announcement' of Dropout Joe was made on social network platform, not out of the White House. That is, a coup by a preemptive strike. Somehow, Someway ... another orchestrated show. Or so I am thinking for the moment.
Money laundering!
A coup happened right before our eyes and the MSM is perfectly happy with it. We're fecked
Trump may have to change his hats to "48"
harris did not raise any money and biden has been dead for years.
Jeff, just an update on the crowdstrike crash... I did some digging
First, I'll note that the actual driver was not updated at the time of the crash, and has not been updated since the crash. The issue looks to be corrupt data files that are loaded into the driver. Drivers like the one they develop require a very non-trivial certification process, which made me suspect that it was bad code that got released. That aside, it was updated previously (for me anyway) on the 9th.
On my laptop, the update included 17 files, 4 or which were corrupt.
As I had reported the other day, the crash was not a simple null pointer (meaning an unchecked/uninitialized value of zero), but a rogue pointer, which is usually due to memory corruption or memory overrun.
Internally, the data files look (to a nerd ha) to have a fairly typical binary layout. However, the files in question contain corrupt binary values, values that represent offsets into the file, and values that are well beyond the length of the actual file. How this generally works is: the file gets read into memory, the program (in this case the driver) uses values in the memory block as addresses to jump around to other positions in the memory block, and so on, and so on, until the whole thing is processed. If one of those values is wrong then the program will read outside the bounds of the memory and then things blow up. Does this all sound fragile and unreliable, sure, and not to sound glib, but welcome to your computer.
Could (or should) the driver have done better checking to prevent this? Most likely. In this case they probably (and incorrectly) assumed it was a closed system (their driver, their files that they create, and all locked out of reach of most users), so there would be no issues. Unfortunately, somehow their release pipeline spit out a turd (which is still unacceptable btw).
This article in Forbes looks to confirm: https://www.forbes.com/sites/kateoflahertyuk/2024/07/19/crowdstrike-windows-outage-what-happened-and-what-to-do-next/
"While initial reports focused on a dodgy update, a user named Brody, who is director of CrowdStrike Overwatch, posted on X (formerly Twitter) that it is 'a faulty channel file, so not quite an update.' "
Side note: given the likely audience of this stack, I think we should know enough by now to be skeptical of any post that begins with "and I have all these credentials" or "and I work at this important company" <cough zack cough>
Since we know Crowdstrike is deep state, and was involved in the coverup of the Seth Rich "hack" of the DNC emails, I tend to think they are war gaming for a total shutdown prior to the election. Yes, a conspiracy theory, but......
Or scrubbing every bit of damaging evidence against the Clinton-Obama-Biden cartel.
Donāt forget the Bushās!
Agree.
I understand very little about this but could it have been timed for the assassination which almost happened? Somehow tied into that to create even greater chaos? Then Trump lived. Now they need a cover up
I too am woefully ignorant, but the shorting of Trump's stock right before the assassination attempt seems like a smoking gun. Someone please explain where I am wrong here.
Yep... a lot of short purchases on Crowdstrike before the outage too
There were many hands in this card game. All linked together.
The rabbit hole on this is a deep and dark.
Just FYI, the huge short was placed on or about 6/28. It was simply reported shortly before.
Interesting. Thanks.
Or perhaps a major distraction?
YES!!
I seem to remember that it affected Dominion machines (in AZ , who were in a primary) which arenāt supposed to be connected?
Yep, voting sites in Maricopa County were affected. Officials posted info on which sites were not impacted. Makes you go, hmmmā¦
True the Vote put out great info for "on the day voters".
Keep your "mail-in ballot", fill it out, deposit it in your local voting center box on election day. No machine intereference.
That is right up there in the 10 most important reveals of the strike!
what if. itās a whitehat probe at deep state vulnerability with turds like dominion machines floating to the top of the punch bowl?
Canāt we just call them theories? Because they tend to always lead to facts. So conspiracy in front of it makes one think of secret people getting together to hatch a plot, and then executing it until it becomes fact. Kinda like the whole federal bureaucracy. All of it. They conspire, behind closed doors, daily, to create the news, leak it to their favored outlet of the day, then hold up their hands saying āmelts in your mouth not in your hands. ā no,the conspiracies happen around us hourly. We should refer to our suspicions as theories.
YEPPIR!!! SPOT ON, Dave!
The only part of your explanation I really understood was that "their release pipeline spit out a turd".....but I get the gistš¤£.
So, does this point to 'just accidental bad input' coding, or 'too stupid to just be accidental' ... or alternatively 'nobody can say, but has the smell of rotten fish'?
I don't know enough about coding to form a conclusion, and yet I am thinking in the direction of 'smells of rotten fish'.
Linux people are always telling that Linux hard to attack because of the kernel is isolated (well, maybe comparted to MSFT Windows and registries. I however, believe anything can be made by Man can penetrated and I am guessing that the cyber-genius in 'intelligence' have figure this all out long ago. But yet I have to put this all on the 'hunch rack' .... because of 'what do I know' and 'a little knowledge is dangerous'. And so my rubric is 'never assume based on whatever you merely think or suspect, but don't know or can't know'.
I was trying to just report the facts. The initial report by the google "expert" was claiming that it was a trivial coding error in an "unsafe" programming language. The "unsafe" part is just nonsense since that is the only language that drivers can be programmed in. The trivial coding error also turns out to be false.
R.e. accidental or not: it's anyone's guess but I'm just telling you what happened. Also, again, this wasn't a "coding" error so much as a borked data file error.
R.e. Linux... the windows/linux debate is a theological discussion as much as anything with tech (or wanna be) tech people. Yes windows has had more than it's share of problems, but also, until recently it had something like 90% of the desktop market, so MUCH bigger attack surface. Again, not a windows fan-boy, just stating facts. Also, note that Linux has a similar "big brother" type system like this crowdstrike driver called eBPF. It is claimed that it can't crash the operating system, but it can definitely do similar things like intercept (and change) data returned by low level system calls. The Linux version though is completely wild west and programs can can be installed by anyone with administrative access, vs the microsoft version that requires a physical security dongle to digitally sign (i.e. verify the validity of) the driver.
For those who are interested, I got a random solicitation in the mail for a magazine called 'Biblical Archeology Review' - it was only about $25 so I subscribed. There is a whole discipline out there of people who study ancient sites and provide context to the passages/places in the bible, it's interesting reading.
I've subscribed to that mag for over 5 years. The publisher organizes group archaeological tours of digs usually in Israel (as the surrounding nations are not overly friendly) that provide students of archaeology a chance to work a primary-level resource site.
Iām not a biblical person but Turkey has the house where Maria last lived, and theyāre a very friendly country. Plus: the original of The Last Meal was made in a cave in Cappadocia where monks had retreated after being persecuted by the Romans.
Thereās also an Archaeological Bible. I want to read though this Bible with itās additional archaeological articles lending supporting evidence to Biblical texts. Plus, I like pictures when I read š
All you have to is believe that Moses received the Torah from HaShem on mt Sinai. With that belief you are relieved from worrying about the truth of the Bible. Itās all true. Faith.
Yes, but the context is interesting - the stories of the bible take on more life when you understand more about how everything from the geography to the politics of the era played into the stories.
Itās a great magazine for keeping current on whatās being dug up from the past. Somewhat critical in tone, but lots of good info as well.
Well I know next to nothing about archeology, but always found it interesting. My son went through a hard core dinosaur phase in pre-school and early elementary and we did take him to a lot of natural history museums and even went to a couple of active paleontology dig sites while on vacations. There was one site in the Badlands of SD where the diggers let him down into the pit and explained what they were doing - he talked about that for months. So I learned stuff through him and also found that the discipline also has an 'expert' problem, where people with out PhD's are often marginalized and not taken seriously.
I love when our children can be our greatest teachers! It is all fascinating !
Yes, my daughter was obsessed with the Little House on the Prairie series, I read them the entire series when they were too young for chapter books, which then led to other books, and 'field trips' to museums and such. We even went to "Little House Days" in Mansfield MO. Definitely gained a lot of perspective for how tough life was for the early pioneers. Those people would laugh at how soft we have become today, myself included, lol.
You exemplify a great parent Donna!
We did our best. They are both independent adults with spouses and good jobs, but neither go to church and my daughter is a full on leftist. Of course I still love them fiercely and pray for them every day.
Did they āTrust The Scienceā, Donna? šš¢š
Oh my daughter did for sure. She and her hubby both got the first 2 and she screamed at us that we were going to 'kill her grandmas' by being around them unvaccinated, which she did later apologize for but shuts down the minute the topic has come up since. My son never bought into any of the fear porn but he and his now wife (who is a nurse and did not question the shot and refuses to talk to us about it) had booked a cruise for their honeymoon after their Sept 2021 wedding. If he did not get the shot he would not be able to get off the ship at any of the ports and would be restricted on the ship. So he caved. He has assured me that he has gotten no boosters since, and his employer never required the shot.
Keep praying! Train up a childā¦Your example will always speak volumes to them.
all "dinosaurs "are FAKE...
https://open.substack.com/pub/chemtrails/p/history-hoax-bone-fraud-are-dinosaur?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=b7m4j you may find this series fascinating. Food for thought
Interesting, of course another reason to question what we thought we knew as truth. Whether dinos were 'real' or not, the Sternberg museum in Hays KS does have a big collection of underwater creatures that swam through western KS when it was underwater, first specimens collected in the 1860's.
Museum displays are "replicas" according to Agent.
Thank you for sharing. Have you ever read any of Institute for Creation Researchās publications? They are also an excellent resource, not just for Creation issues, but well beyond in other Biblical areas as well. Highly recommend.
No, I have only gotten 2 issues of the magazine so far. I am old and still like reading on paper, but also have bandwidth issues. Had cut back on the number of subscriptions due to not being able to keep up but then added this one.....so many interesting subjects, and not enough hours in the day!
My husband loves this magazine!
Some more interesting resources for those interested.

Jeff, you missed the highlight of the Cheatle hearings, when TX Rep. Pat Fallon admonished her to "go back to guarding Cheetos", referencing her former job as head of security for PepsiCo. BOOM.
He said "Doritos."
Don't eat either.
Since they both contain aborted fetal cells, I don't either.
No-I'm not going to give you links. Do your own work, like I did.
Yep - remember Glenn Beck rubbing his face in a bowl of crushed Cheetos to get that "Orange Man" look.
Glenn Beck did have a "come to Jesus moment" and is now supporting Trump.
Yep, that ācome to Jesus momentā occurred when he lost about three quarters of his audience.
Lol
The Cheetos part is kind of ironic considering the Democratsā nickname for Trump š
Having politicians question bureaucrats is a waste of time; a dog and pony show for the rubes.

Suzanne Sommers was taken out the day after publically mentioning it.
What pisses me off is these people get SUBPEONA'd and STILL SIT THERE AND LIE UNDER OATH AND DEFLECT QUESTIONS.
Sorry for yelling but this is just more waste of our tax dollars, and with every second of testimony I watched yesterday, it just seemed more and more fruitless, frustrating, and devoid of fact.
Why do people like Cheatle get away with such B.S. testimony? Someone needs to start using a really big gavel on these liars and cheats.
We obviously get the government we deserve, which speaks volumes .....
Sigh... I heard Sky News call all of this "American political spectacle." They nailed it.
Bingo!!!
Well she wasn't going to resign before the questioning by the bureaucrats. She has now resigned (after questioning by the bureaucrats.)
You sure seem easy to impress. Until people are arrest and tried for dereliction of duty and several other serious charges, the entire thing is meaningless.
My point was that before questioning she still had a job and after questioning she did not. I did not say that any other progress had been made. But your interpretation that it is all meaningless - I won't be able to counter that.
Just wish theyād back it up with actual actions.
The only power they have is to request charges be brought against a person THROUGH the DOJ. Mayorkas (sp) has made them powerless. Period.
Like the old British shows "Yes Minister" and later "Yes Prime Minister" where the bureaucrats led the politician by the nose

I will agree with the "these things do happen sometimes for Crowdstrike, but ... these things also have consequences like companies being sued out of existence for loss of revenue and breaches of contract. I fully expect that CrowdStrike will no longer exist within the year (probably sooner) just because of the lawsuits coming. If they do exist, it will be as a shell of its former self, begging customers to stay. Even now there's a lot of "we don't have a better option" talk but that is followed by the "but we're looking" hints.
No idea how Cheatle still has a job. Someone has to be protecting her. The gross incompetence and stonewalling and lying really can only go so far and you'd think that _every_ congress critter would be up in arms about this. If the directory of the SS can be political to allow assassination attempts against a person they don't like or were given orders to let it go, where does that stop? It definitely doesn't stop with Trump. If anything, it escalates. :(
Agreed on both thoughts.
Thankfully, The unfortunate thing about being protected is that she can and will be unprotected at any time. Not it really matter with respect to what is going on. Iām just thinking out loud .
And sheāll end up with a seven figures cushion on MSNBC. Or dead
I had been wondering if she will turn up at Raytheon or a Blackrock company.
Or Epsteined
She knows to much, I highly doubt there is a seven figure consulting job in her short future.
CrowdStrike is CIA.

Sheās gonna have an accident.

Shit's gonna get real and us guys won't have a clue.
Charlie Kirk reported that Biden had a Medical Emergency in Las Vegas last week. Covid these days is not an emergency, unless youāve had one too many drug cocktails. Bobert was demanding proof that Biden is still alive. Kamala flew to Delaware yesterday to visit Biden. Whatās going on?
Jordan Schachtel also did an in-depth piece using sources from the LVPD and local reports. His piece was posted late last night. Sounds like Biden had some sort of stroke that was probably treated on Air Force One. If they had taken Biden to the hospital, what happened would have become public, so the decision was made to high tail it back to Delaware in order to cover it up is my guess.
Laura Loomer has posted that Joe had a TIA.
It uncommon to see evidence of TIAā¦
Get an MRI fast enough and the typical TIA white spots will show up on a brain scan if done within an hour or so of the obvious stroke symptoms clearing up.
Schactel's report of racing to a Las Vegas hospital with police clearing the roads and then suddenly diverting to Air Force 1 for a super fast flight to the east sounds to me like a TIA which began clearing up within about an hour of the 1st stroke symptoms.
I've a relative who had a TIA. I got her to an ER within 30 minutes of witnessing first symptoms. After 15-20 minutes in the ER her stroke symptoms of getting words out and some balance issues started to clear up. Got her into an MRI after less than 1 hour of arriving at the ER. The next morning the entire hospital neuro team was at her bedside slack jawed because most had never seen a live TIA patient with an MIR showing the TIA tiny white spots on any scans.
That's my thought especially since Biden walked off Air Force One by himself. Meds he would have been mostly ok to walk with some difficulty. And that might explain why he may be well enough to return to the White House.
I just found this "fact check" on SNOPES putting in this search term "did Joe Biden have a TIA"?
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/biden-two-brain-aneurysms/
I read the Snopes fact check but it's dated 2020. It's true he did not have a TIA as part of his health record, but at his age now, a TIA would explain why there was an emergency but yet also explain why he could leave Air Force One under his own steam, albeit gingerly.
Let us know if you "see" Dirty Joe at all today as he's supposed to meet with P.M. Netanyahu from Israel who is visiting to "give me more funds" solicit from our U. S. Congress for the "Gaza War".
If we see him at all it might just be only a photo op of the two men and the real talk will be between Netanyahu and Blinken.
Or perhaps the press will just totally "blindside" us and give us the AI version of the "State get together"!!! I hardly believe ANYTHING I see in still photos anymore!
Kamala had the Scalia pillow with her.
Kamala would like to run as an incumbent and first woman President. The ultimate DEI achievement.
š¤®
But that's make Kamalama's Term #47 (if RE-elected) her SECOND as POTUS.
Two and done.
I wonder if enough Americans have learned that DEI is giving us some of the most incompetent decision makers since so many of those women and minorities have been publicly exposed (Harvard and Penn presidents, Kim Cheatle, etc.) that it will help defeat Harris. Of course, Dems will never be able to come to grips with reality, so there's that.....

Incontinence episode š©
Rhymes with incompetence

It is for the elderly. My FIL in dementia care couldn't get himself out of bed & 2 others went to the hospital. So far only 1 came back. I quietly brought him the FLCCC protocol and the next day, he got himself up & a few days later he wanted to leave his room.
Brain fog lasted a while though.
I wonder if they've withdrawn his drug cocktail and now the real Biden is exposed.
I had no idea TNT was in short supply. Oh, I'd heard of the shortages, but assumed it was being blown out of proportion. "For want of a nail . . . ."
"blown out of proportion"
I saw what you did there..
Subtlety, around this crowd, isn't.
Right? š
Hmmā¦ I wonder if Mike Lindell would open a TNT factory - āMy TNTā factory. I bet we would be glad he did! š
I think Mike would "sleep on it" if you asked him to.
Time for the Sisterhood of the Truro synagogue in Rhode Island to cook up more saltpeter for gunpowder as they did in 1776.

I was listening to Mark Levin in the car last night and he played a clip where AOC, of all people were grilling Cheatle! Wow upside down world for sure, and AOC actually sounded somewhat lucid in her rant.
Also saw where Lauren Boebert was tweeting that she wanted 'proof of life' by 5 PM. Don't think she got her request. A second secret service failure?
I saw AOCās comments too and couldnāt help but think what her angle might be. I donāt trust her at all.
Yes still no proof of life, itās very bizarre š¤Ø
I think the angle is that she gets lots of threats herself (there are plenty of loons on the right) and she suddenly realized the people tasked to protect her are morons.
Yes that makes sense. But I still canāt help but wonder if thereās more. Because I donāt think theyāre just morons, I think there was something more deliberate about it. But maybe sheās worried about the same people wanting her gone too.
I think all the Dems are using the incident as a backdoor way of getting at guns.
Yes itās true that at least some of them brought up gun control at the hearings š
They never waste any opportunity to do so.
Never let a crisis go to waste. James Carville
Of course they are. At least only two of them really grandstanded on the topic of gun control yesterday.
But where is the gun? How come we haven't seen the gun yet? The Dems should be using that to their "gun control" advantage.
I had the same thoughts as I watched her speak yesterday.
It is all bizarro world. The worst part of it is that I am super busy at work right now and my phone will not stop blowing up with people texting stuff, and it is so distracting. My productivity has sucked ever since the 13th, as have my hours of sleep due to late night scrolling on X.
When covid hit, though I had been a traditional church goer all my life, my church closed for 3 months. Nothing. I rediscovered God when I started attending a charismatic church that reopened after only a monthās closure. They reopened maskless, full praise band in attendance. I kept attending because the pastor was Biblical based in all his teaching and asks us every week if we have our Bibles with us. As I have gone along now, nearly four years, in, there are things that donāt mesh with my traditional church upbringing, so I have returned at times to my old church. My husband would never leave our old church. I had to forgive a lot of covid excesses at the old church, but I have come to appreciate that people were frightened and just needed to be told what to do. They were the sheep, so to speak, but the shepherd was not the Good Shepherd but the Prince of Lies. Many now realize that they were gaslit and lied to. They may not say it aloud, but they know. Weāll see where the rubber meets the road.
I find myself, too often scrolling through this substack reading through comments. This is the only substack I follow, though I often read, other commenters suggestions. I am not on X and most social media, but I can still too often find myself going down online rabbit holes. I have to stop and ask myself if this is what Jesus really wants me doing? Is this my God given purpose? The answer is No. so, I pull back and start over again to find my gift from God and use it.
I don't think there is a single person on this page that has not had changes in their lives since 2020, and have had to deal with the feeling of loss in one way or another. Including changing churches, friend groups, jobs and so on. While most of us have not met in person we are a kind of 'family', and have learned a lot and gotten a lot of encouragement here.
I agree that balance is key, life in rabbit holes is not a great life, although it's hard for me. I do (business) research for a living and have for over 25 years now and digging into stuff is in my blood. But am also really into my flower beds which is my opportunity to unplug, reflect and pray.
Then we really do have something else in common, one of my many loves is flowers and my Michigan flowers keep expanding against my best efforts to throttle down. Being outside is a great calming influence. This is a place where many of us have so much in common.
I ADORE growing beautiful flowers, Donna - and looking at them always REAFFIRMS my belief in the CREATOR OF ALL LIFE!!! Thank you for posting this about what you do to offset the stressful 'aura' of today's world.
About half of our yard is flower beds. This time of year it's 30 min to an hour a day most days, more on the weekend. I have been transitioning to more perennials in the past few years but you can't beat annuals for continuous color. Of course the MO season is roughly March - Oct/Nov with some random clean up days in the winter. But I also have a lot of house plants. Have a few pepper plants on my deck but have mostly given up on vegetables as we have too much shade and too many squirrels/rabbits/raccoons.
WOW--our growing season here in southcentral PA is from late April to late October and I have chosen to stick with "annuals" for my yearly "plantings". My friend, Jeff, with whom I cohabit is a magnificent gardener and landscaper - he took the "tangled mess of illogical plantings" all around this condo he bought in late 2019 and now 5 years later...it is pristine and SO magical to observe as his perennials are usually a delight. He has had to "move around" some of them as they weren't getting sufficient sun to thrive. He finally found a perennial that thrives in "shade" - called ASTILBE--do you know of it, Donna? I am an avid gardener...but not as knowledgeable as Jeff. I wish I could share some "BEFORE" and " AFTER " pics of this condo!!
KEEP ON PLANTING, Donna!! As the saying goes..."You're closest to God in a garden!!"
Donna, today is the first day in a week I have felt productive on the job, so you are not alone.
I learned a long time ago to turn off my phone during working hours. Honestly, I'd never get any work done if my phone was always blowing up with "breaking news," texts from friends/family, app notifications, etc. I know this is very 70's behavior, but the information overload is a killer for me, and I was a lot less stressed in the 70's!
I didn't even know until 7+ hours after the fact that Cheatle resigned, and I'm no worse off for not knowing. :)
Well I am in the middle of a project where I am making a lot of phone calls. So I am stuck with leaving my phone on in case I get a call back. But yeah if I am in a research/report writing mode I do tune out. And the only notification I have turned on is for severe weather on my weather app. Actually have very few apps on my phone, I do most things on a laptop. But 3 emails and they are all out of control.
Some people think sheās a plant. I couldnāt see it but in hindsight she has definitely had situations that have moved us forward in this ā¦ show. Yesterday was a š¤ for sure. We may never know but itās interesting.
Her angle is the Demoncrats don't want to be left "holding the bag" on this colossal failure of an assassination attempt.
Yeah I had to look twice it was AOC. I guess she wants to keep Harris safe
Same here!!
AOC for President?
Don't give the Dems any more bad ideas.
