Substack got me again. When I am preparing a post for publishing, there's a step where if I back up, it resets the selection on who can comment from "everyone" and to the default of paid subscribers only. Thankfully Margaret Anna Alice let me know and I have fixed it. Sorry about the trouble!

I figured that was it, when I wasn’t able to comment here earlier. Thank you so much for fixing the issue.

As an aside, I would really love to become a paying subscriber but right now the cost is too much for my current budget 😞 I hope that at some point you can negotiate to change your settings or limitations on your minimum charge. I know I am not alone in thinking this.

Same here. I would support all of the conservative writers on here if I could. But I can’t even afford my favorite, Jeff Childers. Sigh. His was the first Substack that I followed.and still the best

I'm with you CS. I get bummed on Sundays! My sister introduced me and I look forward to the post every morning when I wake up! I could swing $10/month maybe, but not $40. It's Bidenomics. Thanks Biden!

Same here, CS. I wish I were able to support Jeff Childers substack as well. His was the first I discovered and I feel like I was led to his substack when the coVid bs started. I can only say this, God is so GOOD!!!! If it were for this very substack, I honestly do not know how I would have survived that nightmare working in the health-care field. All of us, every single person here on Coffee & Covid are so supremely blessed. Jeff Childers has brought together a community of like minded, educated and informed people and all of us have been supportive of one another throughout this entire ordeal. We have found that we are not and will never be alone in this. We are truly blessed, and Jeff Childers is most definitely one of God's soldiers. I pray he is able to keep his substack free or low cost so that we may all benefit from the community that has been born from his expertise, incite and goodwill. I would love to be financially able to support him but unfortunately, I can't. I'm so thankful he gives us 6 days, even during his off times. I do support his multipliers, however, as that is doable. I'm so very thankful. Blessed. Honored.

There is a substack out there that says “buy me a coffee” and you can donate $5. Maybe something like that? I gave a one time $25 to C & C but I’m not opposed to buying Jeff a coffee every month. My budget no longer allows too many fun things like this.

How do you not understand his "complaint"? She said quite clearly that "the cost is too much for my current budget". How much clearer could he have said it?

FWIW, it's too much for my budget as well. I already pay $44/mo for a handful of other Substacks. I can't afford to double that cost. That's not a complaint. That's just a factual statement. Hopefully clear enough for you to understand.

Not a complaint at all. More like a lament that I can’t support him as I would like to. I am talking about the paid subscription here. I am extremely grateful that Jeff allows us to access this much content for free and not only that, allows us all to comment too. Some free subscriptions don’t allow for commenting at all. But I would actually rather be a paid subscriber and support him with a regular monthly payment.

Point is we WANT to support...perhaps just not at $500. There are SO MANY I want to support and do. Most are about $60-$80 annual, not more. Maybe $100 or even $250 would bring in tons more of us for our beloved Jeff---happily checkbooks in hand!

From a purely math perspective, 7 paying subscribers at $6/mo = 1 paying subscriber at $500/yr. (7 x $6 x 12mos = $504/yr)

If the subscription were $6/mo I wonder if the loss of each $500/yr subscriber would gain back at least 7 $72/yr subscribers. Anything more than 7 replacements for every 1 lost would be profitable (and fewer, unprofitable, of course).

And actually, it would only be 6 replacements needed to be found for each $500/yr subscriber lost, because one of the 7 replacements would be a current $500/yr subscriber who would certainly pony up the $72/yr since they're already doing $500/yr. (And maybe some who can afford it would even STILL pay the $500/yr even if $6/mo were offered.)

From what I understand, the issue is some prior agreement regarding rates that Jeff had that he had to carry over. Not clear about the details though (he posted about this a long time ago).

I just tried to subscribe yesterday but I can’t afford it either. I’d like to pay something but $500 a year or $50 a month is not doable. I hope he gives another option.

Jeff, your subscription prices are INSANE, buddy.

The Maui fires were no accident. Before the smoke even cleared in Lahania public officials (Josh Green) were already talking about stealing the land. They are going to transform the area into one of America's first 15 minute prison cities where your freedom and money will be heavily restricted and will be doled out in fragments based on your social credit, carbon footprint & vaccine status. This researcher explains - quite well - how all of this fits together:

Jeff is limited by what Substack allows in terms of subscriptions, he's explained in the past. It's really a free subscription, except for the Sunday edition (which I would also include in the free subscription). The $500 is to pay for one hour per year of Jeff's legal work. I'm all in for my hour of support, and with enough of us he can spend more time on work that may or may not pay him in the end, rather than on business law, which was his specialty area in the before times. (Sorry, business-law world! We need him on the freedom frontline.)

Democrats have proven their ability to steal elections by a multitude of means: mail in ballots, ballot harvesting, electronic voting machines, a captured media, etc. Now they have just about all they need in place to repeatedly steal elections. The one thing left to conquer is dissent challenging a stolen election. This is what the Trump and company indictments are all about. Challenging an election will forever be a criminal offense. Even if the Democrats are ultimately not successful in court, nobody will be able to afford financially or politically to challenge them. Let us not forget the signers of our Declaration of Independence who pledged their fortunes, their sacred honor and their lives with full knowledge they were challenging the greatest political and military power of the world.

My husband and I share a subscription. Worth every penny and we occasionally support by buying merch. So.

Expand full comment

All true, & he's very prolific, but many of us already pay subscribe to many other Substackers who generally charge $50-70 per year. If I paid my 15 people $500 each, that would be $7,500/year, which I don't have a budget for. So I donate to him when I can.

Expand full comment

And that's why Jeff is so generous that 6/7ths, 86%, of his Substack is free to anyone to read. Otoh, I think I generate more value for good in the world by donating my $500 to Jeff than to support people whose work I might enjoy reading and perhaps learn something, but isn't the same as generating the work of an attorney, so I pay for very few Substacks. Just a different choice.

You are paying for the quality of the content here. You can do all the research yourself, alternatively, but the quality of his work is a fair value for the dollar.

The same could be said for hundreds of Substackers, Tori. I subscribe to many of them. Robert Barnes and Viva Frei are a great example of lawyers who put as much time into their week's work, but choose to charge a fee that the average person can afford. I've not bumped into any other bloggers asking for $500/year. Jeff made it sound as though it's not feasible for him to ask for less. It certainly is. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate his work greatly and have made modest donations.

Expand full comment

I don’t think he’s said it’s not feasible as in he can’t accept a lower rate because his time is too valuable (in any case I think the increased numbers of subscribers would make up for that), but that he was somehow locked into that rate due to a prior agreement when he switched to Substack. I don’t remember the particulars because he said this quite some time ago, but that was the gist of it.

Expand full comment

But it's not a commune where everyone's fees have to *equitable*. Viva Frei also has multiple monetized channels that can defray the expenses of running a substack. I'm not sure about Barnes, whom I like, as well...not intending to disparage him...but I don't think his material is as comprehensive, wide-ranging on a daily basis, as Jeff's.

Annette, you can get Jeff/C&C for free Mon-Sat. The $50 per month is for those who want to support his personal efforts as an attorney in regards to Covid, free speech, liberal control of local politics and to help other attorneys do the same.

I have seen other substackers offer "Founding Member" rates to allow the much higher rate than the typical going rate for subs on here, for those who want to contribute more. If there was an explanation for why ssu stack doesn't allow Jeff to do that here, I missed it. Maybe it was a Sunday post?

Expand full comment

Here's what I wonder (and I suspect Jeff's already done the analysis):

At 6/month (the seemingly standard Substack subscription price), that's $72/yr, and 7 subscribers at $6/month is the annual equivalent of 1 subscriber at $500/yr.

So, would a $6/mo subscription bring in at least 7 more paying subscribers than each one of the $500/yr paying subscribers who would be lost?

Expand full comment

Based on what he's said, I think Jeff's main concern is getting the information out, not on making income off it. People willing to pay $500 can clearly afford it, whereas one might tempt people with more marginal incomes to overspend with a smaller subscription fee.

Oh I understand all that, John, I've been a (free) subscriber since...[checking my inbox]...November 2021.

I was just posing the question about whether it would be more profitable (not that that's his objective) to have a $6/mo level of subscription, and whether that would bring in more than 6 subscribers (the break-even point) for each $500/yr subscriber he'd lose.

I thought his was a $500/yr rather than $50/mo so clearly the break-even point is higher than 6 new subscribers given the $50/mo level. It would be roughly 7.5 new subscribers at $6/mo to replace each $50/mo subscriber.

(And it would only have to bring in *six* more paying subscribers to break even, because one of the $500 subscribers would certainly sign up for the $6/mo level.)

I spoke to a friend yesterday who was in Lahaina 2 days before they got hit with DEWs. She said her friend in Lahaina was taking her son to work early that morning around 9:30am but "officials" would not allow them to leave the area. They were barricaded in the morning of the fires and even though the young man needed to get to work, outside Lahaina, they couldn't use the main roads. Because locals know the island like the back of their hand, they took less traveled roads. The other interesting piece of news reported was that schools were cancelled that day, so children were home... hmmm... THEY WERE ROUNDED UP TO DIE, like sacrificial lambs.........

You are saying there are no schools in the town? If so, they would still be in range of the fire. That area has had major wildfires before, one about 4 or 5 years ago. The terrain of the are is more like prairie than a lush green tropic, and those grasses are acutely flammable during drought, and wind further heightens the danger. The area was under a general wildfire alert or warning, because the drought-like conditions were likely to be unfavorably augmented by the winds of an offshore storm.

The question Jeff asked in this article is a great question. Where was the Bar association for those lawyers being victimized by political lawfare? It occurred to me that the Bar is in the same place that the AMA was for the doctors being forced to comply with the experimental drug trial. That is AWOL and not on the side of its members or the public.

It clearly shows which side they are both on, does it not?

Regarding the DeSantis commentary on the government weaponization, I must agree it was lukewarm, but I admit that is a subjective adjective. It is also very ironic that the criminals would use the RICO act for their lawfare attack, when it was already suggested before that the RICO act should be used to remove those same organized criminals.

The rule of law is the most important issue for sure as you said.

Expand full comment

My thanks for the cogent reply. It is much appreciated.

Those who say the Bar is really adjunct to the Crown may well be right. Whatever the case and with certainty, the Bar associations are by praxis if not by fact extensions of the state. And I never yet a known a lawyer who looked to run afoul of the Bar. This I know well because I have posited questions to many lawyers, very difficult questions. And they would never give to me a direct answer because lawyers live fear the Bar. The Bar is a kind of cult of the legalistic status quo. The AMA is really the same. The AMA will always tow the state line. Why? Because the state licensing. And doctors too, live in fear of revocation of the license to practice.

This is why our American antecedents loathed licensing. Licensing is my book is a taking of property, the Liberty to the means of existence free of the Tyrant. It is quite likely that a lot of cowardly medical practitioners might have come forth against Covid Tyranny were they not captured creatures of the state (licensing/socialized medical establishment payment system).

Expand full comment

Indeed. Licensing is payment and participation in the system to be allowed to do what 'the system' allows you to do. What 'the system' is another story.

This gives a good clue on who 'the system' is for further historical investigation.

I am aware of this regarding the legal definition provided. And to a a large extent, 'civil rights' law is also a kind of permitting system ... even permitting in reverse. I know this is an odd way of putting it, but perhaps you may see the sense of what I am getting at. As well, I accept fully that the alleged 'United States of America' is foreign controlled. Indeed, public policy is an import into 'the country' international in character by origination. We really have been usurped. Not one man in a thousand understands this, the means and extent. Thus, reclaiming the country is nearly an impossibility ... at least in a wholly autonomous sense. I will much enjoy reading further into your steemit.com reference. Thanks much.

It sounds like we are very much in the same mind and on the same page with the history we are all dealing with now.

There are far more psychopathic criminals than I/we thought, and they have declared war on the non-psychopaths, which we are dealing with now until the end.

What’s most troubling to me is this

You have officials on the ground in Maui saying they don’t know what happened…

And If you goggle what caused the Maui wild fire

A fact check immediately comes up that says it was NOT directed energy weapons

How does anyone know that?

They JUST said no one knows what happens

And then in comes this book that says - or tries to- in some definitive way that it’s climate change that caused that fire and is presenting ‘solutions’

It’s actually enough to make people go crazy- people who are traumatized already by losing a loved one, a pet, loved friends, their community, everything they own.

All of this is pushing people to their psychological brink

Two more pieces of the puzzle for the Maui cabal hit job.

Remember the Las Vegas 2017 False Flag where 60 people were murdered and over 400 wounded, "by one guy"? Well two of the honchos in the Las Vegas Police Department at the time are the current/new chief of police and deputy police chief of Maui. Maui is the last of the major Hawaiian islands that have held out against big developers in many parts of the island , including of course Lahiana.

This centers on the exploitation of national crises (disasters or upheavals) to establish controversial and questionable policies, while citizens are too distracted (emotionally and physically) to engage and develop an adequate response, and resist effectively. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shock_Doctrine

Actually, the dose is really low, less than they would get standing 10 minutes outside in the beautiful sunshine. Also, MRI and/or thermography would be utilized so mammograms wouldn't be necessary annually. Ultrasound would likey go along with each modality

as needed. Technology has come a very, very long way in just the last 2 decades. Mammography isn't going to affect the reproductive system, the energy of the xrays are to low to expose the ovaries. There are lead shields for the wary. I know mammo saves lives, I've been a mammographer 25 years and I've seen A LOT. So many people just don't know the technology and only hear the words xray or radiation and think the worst and worse, tell others about what they think they know and then lives are not saved. You'd be surprised there is so much more radiation in your home and outside that you would get from many xrays at a medical facility. Oncology/PET CT is not in this category, of course. I pray for the family SB spoke of, that they will get tested. It's very safe and certainly outweighs any risks however small.

I made a comment about overthrowing my HOA. And I did. But the people I overthrew it with had their own agenda, lied to my face and did things behind my back, eventually shutting me out. Is that my failure?

Trump is not a politician. He never was. He's a businessman. I'm sure there's calumny in business, just as there is in politics, but business is constrained by law. The government is supposed to be constrained by law, but it IS the law, so how do you constrain it when it has been taken over by communists? I didn't know the depth of what he was up against. Did you? Should he have known that (according to RFK, Jr) no one in the upper echelons of DOJ believes in our Constitution? Apparently, Mike Pompeo knew, but whether he passed that tidbit on to Trump or not is anyone's guess. I tend to think he didn't because he was one of those people that praised Trump to his face and snuck around behind his back. With friends like that...

Trump is the only president in my time who has done a whole list of things he said he was going to do. He didn't do 100% of them, but he did more than any other politician I've ever voted for. And he didn't work to line his pockets with wars while he was in office, either. That's something else every other politician has done. I'm tired of the old. I want a fighter. Trump is a fighter.

Jeff I agree that tit for tat prosecution may not be the way to go. I am a strong believer in fighting fire with fire but we have seen an escalation at this point that is a recognizable pattern. Trump just threatens to go after Hillary. Democrats actually go after Trump. The question should be in that case what will be the escalation be by democrats in that scenario and is it an acceptable risk. And democrats have already played their hand here as to who their next target. The Supreme Court. Not just stacking the court but removing judges. That's their next big push.

This ethics code push will be next and they will try to remove Clarence Thomas. So rather than wait for that to happen we need a strategy to combat that or some leverage to pull so it doesn't come about.

I’d like more information on the overthrow of the HOA! We just moved into our first one and it is a mini federal govt dictatorship that we have zero rights against. They are horrible! They all need to be dismantled! We bought our house and it isn’t truly ours when they can put a lien on it because we don’t trim our landscaping they way THEY like! They made us paint our house which did not need painting! We had to plant all new sod!! All of it was subjective! We bought the place because it didn’t need a bunch of work!! Uh guess we were wrong. Insert expletives!

How did you find your like minded neighbors??? If we even mention the HOA people clam up and act like they are being watched and recorded!

Please write up a short book with exactly how you did it. 😂 Was it all under the radar? How did you do fundraising? We’ve talked about this with one neighbor and agreed we’d have to keep it secret so the HOA president and minions didn’t know we we’re gonna do it. We went to the meeting to vote in new board members so we got to watch the ones in power. Ugh. 🤮 EGO and drunk on power! So gleeful that they get to go around taking pictures to force people into the changes they want. It was shameful! Aaaaand we didn’t even get to vote them out because there wasn’t a quorum. Nobody shows up to these meetings!!!! They are just letting it happen because they think nothing can change the dictatorship. Sounds exactly like the federal government!!! Within 6 months we wanted to sell and get the hek out of there. But we’re stuck. Once you buy your house…….your doomed with the HOA.

So our president decided to increase dues by 47% one year. That brought a lot of people out. I went around at meetings and asked people if they were in support of what the HOA was doing. They were not. I asked if they'd be willing to take action and if they answered in the affirmative, I asked them for their name, email address and phone number. Then I created a mailchimp account because my email limited the number of emails I could send. Anyway, we got together and went over our governing documents. We found out that each year, dues can only be raised by a certain amount tied to CPI, so they had violated our governing documents. There were other violations as well. We stood on street corners in the HOA with signs denouncing what they were doing, and waved people over to stop and sign our petitions. We held garage sales where members cooked chili dogs and lumpia and other things and offered those for sale during the garage sale. (We rented storage space for $1 and combed Craig's List looking for free items to put in our sale.) We knocked on doors and explained to people what was going on and asked them to vote for us at the annual meeting. We took the proceeds from the garage sale and hired an attorney to file suit against the HOA.

The big thing that sticks out to me is that we went over our governing documents. Each city, town and county has its own set of governing documents, too. They spell out what the city, town or county can and cannot do. I know that our cities, towns and counties are violating our rights. So I think it would be smart to start local and find out where they're doing things they shouldn't. Then you bring lawsuits. It takes a lot of work though. I didn't sleep very much for a couple of years. I'm sure it would take more work to bring such action against a true government entity. I just have this idea in my mind of creating all these little groups across the US that are each focused on their own area, with each little group being part of a nation-wide group that is working to bring sanity back to the country.

Something has to be done. We can't wait for "if" Trump or DeSantis or whoever gets back into the White House. I think we should have taken action years ago.

Wow!!! Thank you for that information. That was a lot of work. I’ve been hesitating because I know how much work it is….along with the lack of people even showing up for meetings at all. So I don’t know if people are happy with them or not. They only give us 48 hours notice of a meeting and it’s a little sign posted at the entrance to the neighborhood. It’s almost like they don’t want anyone at the meetings 🤨 so they can do whatever they want. It’s infuriating. We’ve only been to one big one because that’s the one we had advanced notice on. The rest, by the time we find out about it we already have previous commitments. It’s not right. We don’t even get an email or flyer or anything. I need to look at our contract/bylaws and see what’s required. That’s my place to start I guess.

Again. Thanks!

And GREAT JOB! 💪🏻 Way to stand up to those tyrants!!

Your governing documents likely spell out monthly meeting requirements. You should check and make sure your board is following them. This is why the governing documents are so important: they spell out what the board can and cannot do. Same with our laws, which is why I think something like this could be done in cities, towns and counties across the US. You should have CCRs, Articles of Incorporation, and bylaws. If your bylaws class with the articles, the articles carry. Build can be amended but require a certain percentage of membership to vote to change them. Also look at your state laws regarding HOAs. The POAA for your state will likely say how much notice is required for a meeting. If they're building that, you can file a complaint with the your department of professional and occupational regulations or whatever you have that's similar have a complaints process.

I know. I set up a committee to stop hostile take over by developers and then went door to door and spoke all 120 owned. I got the needed by law amendment passed with 2/3 vote. It precluded one person owning more that two units directly and indirectly. When I lost the election by 1 vote which I believe the election was rigged. 😂 but I was glad I lost in the end. The next board voided the amendment by allowing competing developers to own more than allowable under by laws. Basically voided the amendment.

Truthfully, there actually ARE hereditary conditions that can cause sudden cardiac death, particularly during physical activity. Those annual sports physicals that most schools require are intended to screen for indications of such conditions.

Also, bystander CPR is often, unfortunately, not effective. I don’t know stats for trained responder CPR, but I don’t believe it is really all that much better.

I don’t think that in this case we can assume it was the injection. Especially since the news reports state a hereditary condition was found. We must be as careful with our assuming as we want the other side to be with theirs. And NO, I am NOT saying it was NOT the injection. What I AM saying is that we have to keep our minds open to other options as well.

I know many people who are past ready to see some serious jail time for a lot of democrats and even some republicans. I think many of the C&C audience feel that way. Not doing anything is only allowing the situation to get worse. Honestly, at this point, I don't even care if they are complete witch hunts if for no other reason than to burn some holes in their cash, too. They are not going to stop until every person bows at their feet and they are in complete control so the only thing left to do is fight back. Keeping them in court will at least hit them where it hurts, the purse.

Fantastic, now they don't even bother to lie cleverly, all we get is moronic lying. See, they know they don't even have to try hard, so just get them all on any type of indictment and let's start emptying their purses!

Trump fans, why do you love him so? I voted for him in 2020, for Ron Paul 3 times before that. I did not understand why dems were so upset when he won on 2016, as at the time I thought he was as liberal as Obama, so they should be thrilled. Then he started doing some truly conservative, good things. Quite a lot of them. I was happily surprised. But he appointed some awful, awful people who are causing rampant harm to this day. Then the lockdowns, jabs. My father died of turbo cancer (3 kinds developed in less than 8 months, all stage 4!) from the shots. That is murder, y’all! MURDER. And tons of people have died since and continue to do so. And Trump’s still pushing the shots. His ego has always been a problem. I can overlook that, to a degree. I can overlook a lot of his shortcomings to a degree. I do believe the 2020 election was stolen. I do believe he’s being MEGA unfairly prosecuted and treated like absolute garbage without merit. But MURDER. I can’t get past that one. Especially given that it’s ongoing. Help me understand why you still support him. This is a serious question that I am asking respectfully.

The one and only reason many people have awakened to all this BS going on is because of Trump. I would never know everything I do now if Trump hadn't been president (and sometimes I wish I was still ignorant of it all). I was not a supporter when he came down the escalator and announced he was running for president. The thing I asked myself at that time is why do all of them hate him so much? Not just the Democrats, but Republicans, also. They hate him because he ran in their circles socially. He knows what they have been doing. And he was good friends with JFK, Jr. I believe JFK, Jr would have been the one to expose everything but they killed him. JFK Jr said that he was going to run for president and then expose his father's killers. Well, who would that be? The intelligence agencies (specifically the C I A) and Military Industrial Complex. They know Trump was going to expose what they have been doing since its inception in 1947 and it ain't good. How many lives have been ruined by our intelligence agencies? How many wars created? How about all the unrest all over the world so those f'ers could get rich making weapons for all those wars? How about the human trafficking? The cartels are now making billions of dollars trafficking humans. Well, you know what? I am sticking with Trump. There isn't anyone who has the backbone and balls he has to take all of them on. I will support him to the bitter end.

My reason for liking Trump is he's a known commodity, I like his policies very much and when he was in office he made them happen. Our economy was soaring. He was not a politician, he trusted people he appointed to a fault not understanding the dynamics of corrupt Washington. Mike Pence was appointed the head of the COVID response. Birx, Fauci, Collins and Pence led Operation Warp Speed. Trump is not a doctor or scientist, he depended on his experts. His ego won't allow him to admit the vaccines are deadly. I would prefer someone else. But I don't know that those running on the GOP side are adequate. I look at Kennedy with interest because he does understand the vaccine issue, Ukraine-Russia and the need to close the border. And he understands the corruption in Washington.

I guess we must all set our priorities. My first and foremost is vaccine safety and accountability. I have two great grandbabies this year.

But I live on a pension and inflation is really affecting my personal expenses. I want someone like Trump to jumpstart our economy. However, I am raising twin 11 year old granddaughters and homeschooling them due to the current trend of CRT and the insistence of the left to teach them inappropriate sexuality at very early ages.

My 29 year old grandson and his wife are the exact opposite. They insisted everyone who wanted to see the baby have a dTap vaccine.

They didn't take the COVID vaccine for which I am thankful. They have been brainwashed by the medical establishment. My other grandson, age 25 is my hope. He wants data so he can judge for himself.

Unfortunately, the Deep State is deeply ingrained in both Dem and Rep parties. Our freedom is mainly an illusion now, and soon all pretense of freedom will be removed, and our constitution will be shredded permanently. I think it is probably too late for America to get rid of the evil permeating our nation and leadership, sadly...no matter whom we elect. I am old now, but I was a Kennedy Democrat when I was young. I was driven away from the party during the Carter administration. I am as disillusioned by the Republicans now as I was with the Dems then. They pretend they will fight for us, but once elected, they just do their own thing and forget those who elected them. Either that, or they are too intimidated to fight for us. We need strong, courageous leaders who will do the right thing no matter what the cost. I watched Tucker's full interview with RFK Jr on YouTube last night and found it very insightful. You can still find it on YouTube, but I don't know for how long, and it is definitely worth watching. I could almost be persuaded to vote for a Dem if it was him. But he doesn't stand a chance. His party left him behind long ago, too. He will be persecuted and vilified the same way Trump has been. Even if he were to miraculously be elected, his own party AND the Republicans would fight him tooth and nail. If we think Trump and his lawyers will be the only ones persecuted, hang on. He was right when he said that sooner or later, they will come for everyone who voted for him or has publicly supported him on any social media, attended any of his rallies, or made even a small financial donation to his campaign. I do not think there will ever be a fair and free election from now on. I worked in two different county election departments when I was young. When we went to the digital election system, I warned everyone who would listen to me of the dangers. I was laughed at and made fun of. "That only happens in 3rd world countries. It will never happen here." Well...we are now a 3rd world country apparently. I keep thinking things can't get any worse...and then they do. Every day there is some new atrocity. It breaks my heart because I love my country. I am deeply patriotic and always have been. My heart bleeds for the nation I once knew. It is painful. But I know that my true citizenship is in Heaven. None of this has caught God by surprise. We just continue to fight the good fight and persevere until our Lord returns for us.

This may sound harsh, but we have free will and Trump NEVER insisted that the jabs be a universal thing, in fact suggesting them only for the small demographics that normally are most vulnerable to flu. Prior to that, he pitched heavily for HCQ and other safe and effective non-vax treatments. I'm you recall the savagery and mockery with which he was attacked for proposing what we know to be effective prophylactic and treatments. It was Fauci, Birx, Walensky, Pence, et al, who pushed hard for the jabs. Birx, in fact, in her book and in interviews admitted, smugly, that she and they willfully lied to Trump about not just the jabs that they knew were crap, but about lockdowns, masks, the absurdity of social distancing. I imagine your pain is justifiably profound, but your anger is misdirected and the actual miscreants are skating free while Trump takes their blame. You should also know that Vivek Ramaswamy was very pro-jab. The focus on the jabs---and I do not mean to minimize your personal pain---also ignores the extreme successes he has had economically and diplomatically. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater is too extreme, especially in a time when we have a very narrow window to reverse course, and essentially one guy who has the drive and will to do just that.

Thank you for this. I was too tired yesterday to do an effective pushback. Like Jeff said about useful idiots in tomorrow’s post, ‘They are idiots!’ I watched intently as the whole Covid nightmare unfolded. I had been waiting to see what evil the left was going to unleash in 2020. It came earlier than I expected, but I recognized it immediately for what it was.

I saw President Trump pushing back against the hysteria the media was drumming up. I saw him trying to calm people with comparisons to regular flu seasons, with talk about fresh air and sunshine and treatments, including Ivermectin and hydrochloroquine. He was not for lockdowns. He warned about the cure being worse than the disease. I heard him say these things in daily briefings.

But the useful idiots were eating up what the media was putting out and demanding a vaccine. He gave them one in hopes of calming them down and saving the economy. He only knew what the ‘experts’ were telling him, filtered through the ‘traitor’ Mike Pence, who was claiming some public health management credentials.

All the World had lost its collective mind.

The people wanted ventilators and vaccines and they wanted them ‘Now’! He gave them what they asked for. There are still those today who claim ‘millions of lives were saved”. I don’t believe that, but they do and always will.

I Corinthians 10:13 says, “No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful, he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.”

Is God a liar? President Trump never promoted a mandate for the vaccines. Once they were mandated, how many simply caved instead of looking for that way out, because the way out would ‘be hard’? What a worthless, wussified generation of people that now look for someone to blame.

And now they want an easy road out of the mess we’re in. If they can just find the right man; someone who looks good in a suit and doesn’t distress them with strong attacks on the enemy. A nice Mitt Romney type. These useful idiots are beyond pathetic and no way will they be able to bear up under what’s coming.

Trump? Who is he? And indeed a puzzle.

Who or what was so big that Trump got onto that debate stage? This is a largely unanswered question. But it was not the MAGA crowd because they are not initiators, they are largely camp followers and supporters at the ready once the big ball gets rolling.

I agree with the implications surrounding you use of the word MURDER. But in the midst of the flood the zone mass formation media campaign which stampeded the entire planet of the mostly non-thinking, there were limits to what anyone could do to reverse the tide. Historically, once panics, hysteria and manias take hold, they inevitably run an unstoppable course to conclusion. However, the push back was less than lackluster. And subsequent the posturing DJT continues to severely tarnish the image. And by the way, and with DJT I do think that we are dealing with images presented to the hapless lumpenproletariate ... to use a word of Marxist coin.

It seems that the DoD and the CIA were the ones behind Covid Health Terrorism and its murderous objectives. This is a bit hard, especially at onset, to take on. It is like trying to move a mound with a child's beach sand shovel. I have to factor that in too. And also, in spite of the many, many deficits, I have to say that Trump largely was the single most important catalyst of Woke Reversal within the Collective West. The bottom line is that DJT is a mixed bag, seriously flawed in some respects but also in other respects ... highly effective. And the MAGA crowd also cannot be neatly pinned down because MAGA coverS a spectrum from highly astute eyes wide open to the informationally challenged but with better natural instincts than to be had in Wokedom.

Like most here, I am not at all happy where we are in Totalitarian Land. But nonetheless, I am grateful for any traction in the opposite direction. And yours was a good post as it raises issues which should never be swept under the rug in a posture of non-thinking adulation.

Ahem...just possibly, pompously posturing in the entirely self-perceived *enlightenment* of maligning and diminishing Trump's supporters---ahem, me---as largely witless, slack-jawed, moral cretins cowed into an idolatrous kneeling posture before Trump, is not a way to sway us away from what we have seen is a powerful track record of economic and diplomatic prosperity.

True, that!

A classical mistake would be to lump people together as a monolith of uniformity. Again, MAGA people are people like you and me caught in a Totalitarian Tyranny and looking for a way out. For Americans, the situation present of extreme enslavement is unprecedented. We never had anything so overwhelming oppressive going as far back as four hundred some years.

If there is one great gift from Trump, it is the exposure of the Banana Republic for what it is. That is, with the advent of Trump and all the subsequent fallout the push of the jackboot against our necks can no longer be denied. Things are now at a head. We will either fight. Or they will kill us all, either figuratively and/or literally.

We must never make idols out of people. To do so is an affront to the glorification of God. But we always must make assessments, and thereby act Godly in behalf our our own self-interest and that of our posterity.

There is more video documenting Donald Trump’s life and his take on politics, I would dare say, than most any other human being on this planet. His origins are no mystery. His stance is no mystery. As if God has specifically been preparing him for this role for his entire life.

With no credit to Obama, Trump is the one the MAGA ‘crowd’ has been waiting and praying for. He came and filled an aching need for someone to care about us, the average person on the planet. There is no non-thinking adulation here. We’ve been thinking hard for many decades. I say for those who cannot recognize this, that says a lot for their non-thinking adulation for the status quo.

You criticize Trump - in hindsight by the way. Okay. What about the so called "experts" like Anthony Fauci who advised Trump? What about all the other politicians who mandatded vaccines and masks and lockdowns? Can you say Biden? You should name them as well. Oh, and Trump never violated anyone's rights by mandating anything.

The same Fauci that Trump bestowed the Medal of Freedom on when he was leaving office, and still defends to this very day?

President Trump is the only one offering America First economic policies, foreign policies and domestic policies. He’s the only one the globalist Uniparty enemy is massively attacking —-translation the other candidates are not a threat or are actively puppets.

Kennedy? He has said he wants to jail climate change deniers. He’s for gun control. He’s far far far extreme on Green Energy -no nuclear – no gas –no oil–no coal–no hydro. And in 2020 he said lockdowns were good for the climate. That’s MAGA?

Vivek? Soros family foundation ties — Has a company in Covid vaccine industry and ties with Pfizer — WEF proudly listed him as one of its 2021 graduating class of Young Global Leaders you know the WEF trained agents of the Great Reset (own nothing be happy).

I like RFK and would vote for him if he didn't support abortion, and wasn't so interested in environmental issues. Trump's Achilles heel is the vaccine program, and it's more like an Achilles leg, or two. But he does maintain that peope should choose whether to get the shot or not. If he's the winner in the primaries, I would vote for him over a Democrat. Vivek? He says the right things, but seems glib.

Vivek's Open Society past makes him seem a LOT like Obama...

Same here exactly. It’s not right that he’s being prosecuted for stupid crap but that doesn’t mean I ALSO don’t want him to “go away”. There’s got to be a way to defend him without looking like you’re a supporter which is how everyone views it bc that’s how TRUMP views it - narcissists like to make you “for” or “against” them - no nuance. Trump is definitely a narcissist! However I am 100% for DeSantis. He’s like Trump without the poison tongue and a MUCH higher IQ. If you’ve ever listened to how he made his Covid decisions - people around him were blown away by the fact that he read all of the studies as they came out - something even FAUCI was incapable of doing!

RDS is NOT the *Nice Trump*. That is a calculated, deceptive image contrived by his RINO and Democrat backers. Unlike Trump's small Main Street donor base, his donors are mostly Wall Street corporatists. He is owned. And a careful vetting of his background makes it clear that he is nothing like Trump. Since you mention narcissism, here is RDS' (I am God* campaign video...https://youtu.be/U9oTBA-MvZk

Another reply you might appreciate: To all you attackers of President Trump; you are fleas after an elephant. Since the globalist s are still utterly terrified of him, as evidenced by the energy they’re exerting in attempts to bring him down once and for all, you can probably get hired for some internet work. If you aren’t already. And Can we take a moment to remember that at that time, the whole d*mned world, not just this country, was a blazing inferno, roaring with fear and panic? And TPTB, especially Big Pharma and their media slaves, were pouring fuel on that fire every hour of every day ? Try to picture that as you claim President Trump should have done so much better, because how hard could it be, when you can see exactly what he should have done? Beware the memory hole we’re being programmed to fall through.

Trump did the following:

1) stopped ISIS cold
2) EO stopping the drug companies from charging medicare more than what they charged foreign countries
3) EO forcing hospitals to disclose their prices
4) Move the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem
5) ENERGY INDEPENDENCE for the first time in my lifetime of 70 years, and record low energy prices
6) Started no new wars
6A) Abraham Accords, bringing peace to the middle east instead of war
7) Elimination of regulations, required to eliminate 8 to add a new one
8) Cut Taxes across the board
9) Increased the individual tax credit eliminating the need to file more complicated returns
10) Started the space force, sorely needed today
11) Replaced NAFTA with an agreement better for American workers
12) Put tariffs on china, starting the process of moving American production out of the enemy’s land
13) Brought back massive amounts of money saved in foreign countries
14) Withdrew from the farce know as the Paris Climate Accords
15) Withdrew from the Iran deal
16) Increased the $$$ of the average family by over 5K
17) Started the process of fixing the VA
18) Increased the spending by other NATO countries
19) Killed the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)
20) Created several million jobs, actual creation not bafflegab bullshit
21) Economic growth rates were going up, somewhere around 4% before the marxist killed the economy with the scam chinaVirus
22) Lowest rate of unemployment ever, across the board for blacks, hispanics, asians, veterans, etc.
23) Opened ANWAR and had the Keystone pipeline being constructed

There is much more of course. Makes your pathetic attempt to paint Trump poorly look just like it is.

I totally agree with you, Caracat. RFK Jr met with him before the vax rollout and warned him about the problems we would face with this type of vaccine. He had ample warning a pushed it forward - and defends it to this day.

Personally, I think he’s deep state, and there is no escaping the depravity of both parties. It will take a miracle of God to turn this around. I do believe in miracles.

Since I don't watch or read MSM, I was unaware of this alleged new variant. It explains why I was seeing so many masked idiots in the garden section of Lowe's over the weekend.

I didn’t know about the Worrysome Variant, either, until yesterday when a friend brought it up. I had commented that I didn’t want to fly anytime soon and she thought it was because of The New Covid Variant. No, it’s just because I don’t like being herded like livestock.

“her office was just ‘testing the system’”

Hmm, I’m having déjà-vu here:

“A Fox affiliate TV station in Arizona said it mistakenly published test election results during a live broadcast, and the move triggered conspiracy theories about rigged voting.…

“‘This graphic was never meant to go on air — the numbers were only part of a test. The station has taken steps to make sure this cannot happen again,’ Fox 10 said.”

“One screengrab of the newscast posted to Twitter by Arizona GOP Rep. Paul Gosar showed the test election results giving Hobbs 53% of the vote with Lake obtaining 47%.” (https://www.businessinsider.com/fox-affiliate-phoenix-mistakenly-shares-test-election-results-sparks-conspiracies-2022-10)

Perhaps it was done to demoralize. To let people know what they're doing, and to imply that nothing can be done about it. Just like a vote tally that takes a vertical bend in the middle of the night.

I was talking to a friend yesterday and regarding the heartless "no comment" comment from jrb she said playing devils advocate, maybe he just did not hear the question and no comment was a safe reply instead of "huh"? Ummm, maybe I guess, ummmm me thinks no.

As to why Biden answered as he did, it’s perhaps because no one has been home for quite a long time.
