Special Edition: the best news day since the Pandemic. All the hot takes and headlines are wrong about yesterday's Supreme Court decision. It's all so much bigger and better than anyone imagines.
Judge Cannon was Justice Thomas's law clerk. Regardless, outstanding round-up. I am particularly grateful for your rational breakdown of the Trump decision. I kept shouting, "That's not what it means" as local liberals were plunging to their death from nearby bridges and tall buildings.
At first I thought Jeff made a mistake too. But then I realized he was saying Thomas was acting in the way a law clerk for Cannon would act, i.e., providing an outline and script to knock down Smith's position.
Thank you. So much for my knee-jerk attempt at humor. I knew Judge Cannon was super-smart in law school and a law clerk, so I just assumed.
From Wikipedia: "From 2008 to 2009, Cannon served as a law clerk for Steven Colloton, a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in Iowa."
True... but, of course... better by far than the Sotopig, Bulldyke Kagen or token Kunta-Ketangi...
And I am not thrilled with Roberts at all... or Kavanaugh, who seems to have a decided lack in the testicular dept...
Wouldn't it be great if a President who nominated a SCOTUS Justice could also, at will... remove them? I think Koward Kav and ACB would both be gone when TRUMP returns...
Well done, Justice Thomas. He has always been my favorite and most respected Supreme, but with this he has risen far and above my former high respect for him. Brilliant!
It was actually Biden, in Senate confirmation hearings, that caused me to latch on to Justice Thomas. I was impressed with Thomas’ fortitude in putting up with it, and very pleased he’s one of the Supremes. My hope is that we don’t have to ever go through any of that again. Ever. FJB.
I think what he meant was that Justice Thomas just wrote her decision for her, much as a law clerk would do. Here’s to hoping she grabs it with both hands and flings it in agent smiths face.
Jeff said it first…and there IS that photo of Agent Smith in the article…I just agreed that we should (from now on) refer to the man as such since he’s certainly NOT a “special prosecutor “ in the legal sense of the term.
I agree with your and T Kosse's interpretation. Given that everything you thrust into the universe of the internet is there in perpetuity (regardless of what most people think about 'delete my data' requests to Facebook), I usually research these things.
Oh! If only they were plunging to their deaths. I am soooo tired of their self-righteousness. The everyone is stupid and always wrong, just never them. We deserve punishment for the least little thing, but they are above the law. All the while they are behind bringing down our country.
Perhaps in a fair, rule of law universe where a 'uniparty' does not have exclusive control over the vast majority of social media and operates under two sets of rules.
I'll also be watching my neighbor with the 'yuge Trump and Gadsden flags who spends the weekend shooting AR-15s with his sons on his farm. Having come from Michigan, I remember the stories about the Nichols brothers blowing up things on their farm in Howell (the Michigan version of the deep-south) with their buddy Tim McVeigh. Very scary times we live in and I tend to agree with Tucker Carlson that supernatural things are afoot.
very supernatural. Acts2: 1-3 ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.
Actually "supernatural things" have been 'afoot' since prehistoric times...we just have more "media mites" jumping on juicy tidbits of 'news' now than ever before in human history.
Because the legislative branch of our Federal government is filled with MORALLY COMPROMISED 'leeches' instead of true Constitutionally sound 'legislators'!! They're ALL IN ON IT!!! There are a few "beacons of light" (like the Freedom Caucus legislators)...but they are very few and far between.
But they should, because I also saw what this meant to previous demon presidents, like the Shrub, Obongo, and Slick Willie. They should be shaking in their boots. As should Biden, if I believed he was actually still alive.
I just ran to my local DEI-free Tractor Supply here in Middle Tennessee to buy a large placard and paint. I'm putting a sign next to the Tennessee River overpass that reads: "Free Money for Neocons" with an arrow pointing downward.
I like this explanation from a post by Thomas Gallagher on Quora:
"Conservatism is a political philosophy that values tradition and established practices over social progress and new ideas. This isn't saying it's purely reactionary; anyone who believes recent developments in a particular area were harmful and should be reversed could be considered conservative in that area, e.g "I hate how cellphones have destroyed face-to-face communication!" In the United States, conservatism has traditionally identified with keeping with the spirit of the Founding Fathers; limited government, non-intervention in foreign affairs, a free market, and strong personal liberties.
Conservatism typically switches between parties; depending on the time, the coalitions they build, and the ideas that are popular. Now, Republicans are considered more conservative, but that wasn't always the case.
Neoconservatism (and the older conservatism, now called Paleoconservatism) represent an offshoot of conservative thought that emerged during the Cold War. Since Communism, the antithesis of all conservative ideals, seemed to be rapidly growing in strength during the 50's, many Conservatives began to question the wisdom non-intervention in other countries, a school of thought already badly discredited by World War II. Their brand of "New" Conservatism placed great weight on the strength of the military, the interaction of industry and the government, and a powerful investment in industry and science. As a result, many tenets of Paleoconservatism (older conservatism) were dropped; Government spending vastly increased, personal liberties were tempered with security concerns, and many wars and coups were started in the aim of increasing American power, although a strong moral puritanism remained.
Neoconservatism reached its peak under the administration of George W. Bush, but became deeply unpopular as a result of the Iraq War and the financial meltdown.
So to wrap this up,
Conservatives: Back to Basics (Tea Party)
-limited government
-restrained spending
-moral values
-free market
-smaller military
-strong personal liberties
Paleo-Conservatives: Democracy with a Heavy Dose of Patriotism (Most Republicans now)
-limited government
-restrained spending in theory, often deficit spending
The State of Jefferson gets more than it's share of getting sprayed from the overlords. I see it all the time on my trips back and forth to see my mom in NoCal. "They" are making me pray more, seek God and realize that God wins in the end. Pushing pushing pushing the people to realize our Godly prayers amount to everything against the huge evil that is everywhere we look.
No, it was here well before that. Before 1871 and the Organic Act. Before Abraham Lincoln was assassinated. Those forces were hard at work. But - they Are a lot more obvious now, less lurking-in-the-shadows.
Perhaps but what I meant is that our culture went through a fundamental and obvious morality change..I remember it clearly through television (everyone was having sex from the older ladies on Golden Girls to Frasier) and pop music took a sexual turn . Religious observation was being replaced by Sunday morning sports practice for children, brunch or jogs for adults. (I remember my Priest being upset about that.) Church going, Sunday school, was no longer the 'thing to do'. Clinton was talking about his wife's necromancy practice of communicating with Eleanor Roosevelt as if it was something everyone did. And his WH antics...
no one will forget, especially the children who were exposed to it and according to a middle school Principal I knew, emulating it behind the bleachers in groups.
Soros started buying up journalism schools and media outlets after Clinton in 2003 and the NWO agenda was in getting a foothold. The next year, the EU consciously removed all mention of its Christian foundation from its constitution.
All this on the surface. God only knows below the surface what was going on.
Thank Ann Richards for that one…but anyway, funny how hindsight changes everything . All those times I defended W and Dick Cheney, blaming Dhimmicrat Derangement Syndrome for their histrionics…I have repented of all that now! 🤦🏽♀️
I second that emotion as well, Susan!! They're "all on the take" in one way or another - they are SO FAR from being "public servants" - it's ludicrous!!
ok I STILL dont get it. can someone explain the Cannon/Thomas remark like Im 5 yrs old? I thought she's older than she looks, takes good care of herself, etc.
The more local liberals that plunge to their deaths from nearby bridges and tall buildings, the fewer trials that will be required to purge them from the DoJ.
And He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the lowly, for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
excellent point. like Cafeteria Catholics, they take what they like of the Bible and dump the rest. like the ones in the 400s who dumped the Gospels of Thomas and Mary Magdalene to twist the church away from Gnosticism and towards male domination/misogyny. "but the BIBLE SAYS"... etc.
The Lord does indeed teach us patience. And those who trust in His power receive His reward. Yesterday's announcements from SOTUS being a clear example.
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or understand, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
Definitely appreciate the summaries today on the various rulings. Still not crazy about the free speech and private orgs being influenced by the government ruling, but the rest are pretty good. I figured the "partial immunity where it makes sense in a sane world" ruling would be the way it came down. You couldn't rule "absolute immunity" nor could you rule "it's all fair game". You have to have the balance there and that _is_ a good thing.
The concern now is all of the nuts out there trying to claim the current admin could order drone strikes to take out Trump (or other political opponents) and do so with completely immunity. Those people are really concerning because they walk among us and genuinely think that's a good idea. These are all some great rulings, but just like we're seeing in France, we're ramping up for another "Summer of Love" type of insanity. :(
Now to see if courts start (or continue) ruling for people affected by the OSHA mandates and such. I saw the TN award for nearly $700k for one person, which I expect will be challenged and reduced, but that's the first case. We can only hope that this trend will start going far and wide. Companies should have taken a long look at what forcing their employees to take untested medical interventions would do to their bottom line.
I know my company thought that far ahead. I was able to fairly easily obtain an exemption for myself and multiple co-workers. They really only required that you ask for one. And, while not a hospital or medical office, it is a pharmacy with direct patient care giving covid shots (which I also did not do). But there were pharmacists who DID give the shots who were exempted as well so…. While I know they only did so to prevent a shortage of pharmacists (which they certainly would have had if they had denied) I was eternally grateful to have been able to keep my job as there was no force on earth able to make me take that shot.
Broke radius messily Fri. a.m. Saw surgeon yesterday. Wrote, in shaky handwriting, w. signature: no allografts, no xenografts, only autografts, no mRNA products, no blood transfusion from any but husband. Said to P.A. these words: I would rather die than take Covid-jab-tainted blood.
We wanted to “bank blood” for our mom during the height of the vax insanity (because we did not want her to have tainted blood either). It was not going to be an easy process by any means! So for anyone concerned about transfusions, I would research well in advance of any planned surgery what you need to do! Thankfully, my mom chose not to have the surgery so it became a moot point.
Autologous donation was the way to go before an elective procedure even pre-jabs. Seems to be more resistance to that approach now; well, except for the ortho docs.
I second what Jeanne said re: researching this well in advance. We looked into banking my daughter's blood before an elective surgery, and it's a paperwork nightmare that has to be started months in advance.
If you push hard enough, and have a cooperative doc, it can be done in as little as 3 weeks. Contact your local blood bank directly for assistance! (Just don’t mention unvaxxed blood.) Everyone knows it’s safer to use you own…
Yep; remember the baby who had extensive clotting after a transfusion?; parents were denied a directed transfusion. If anyone remembers the image, you could see the dilation of the superficial vessels on the chest and abdominal wall due to ‘rerouting’ of blood. 😢😡
In WW2, Australia used coconuts for plasma when there was a shortage of blood for their soldiers; it’s full of electrolytes and sterile. I’m inclined to start stocking them though I heard rumors of the Christian resistance about a hospital for the pure-blooded 🙏 (this is in The Netherlands but Jeff mentioned he joined a medical community that’s not gone mad). ❤️🥥
Check out ProtocolKills.com website & substack of same name. From attorney Greta Crawford. Tons of info and tips to prepare yourself PRIOR to hospitalization.
Tragically, I believe the remdesivir protocols are still in place.
Also Dr Margaret Aranda has similar info on her substack.
I dislocated my shoulder just short of a year ago. I was scared to death, going to the ER and then to the Ortho afterwards. I did not want to do surgery and as it worked out, they agreed! Reasoning was, my shoulder was so bad from previous abuse, surgery wasn’t recommended.
I’m sure they would have done it if I had asked for it though, and that’s a problem.
Aloha, Irunthis1! Can you share the name of your company? I’m an attorney representing employees fired for requesting a religious accommodation from the Covid vax. Generally the employer denied the accommodation on the basis of a purported undue hardship, that being the unvaxed were an alleged threat to others. But being able to tell the court that many companies- including those providing healthcare - granted accommodations can help to beat that dubious defense (indeed, even the CDC granted hundreds of accommodations and did not fire any of its employees who requested accommodations). If you’re comfortable doing so (I would not use your name, just the name of the company) feel free to email me at joegomesesq@gmail.com. Thank you in advance!
My husband was granted a religious exemption from the City of Milwaukee. Very grateful to Jeff to this day for helping lay out the format for us on this blog.
Consider using Conscientious Objector instead of Religious reasons. It indicates a thoughtful, rational decision to decline the vaccine. It would benefit those who don't have a religious belief.
I went with religious because of the stronger laws on the books in my state with regards to exemptions. I wanted to do a medical but so many doctors were just playing along and screwing it up for everyone who had legitimate medical concerns--e.g. telling people who clearly had a severe adverse event to get another dose or telling people with anaphylactic reactions they had to get one anyway---completely insane advice. So religious made more sense.
Well I’m catholic but there is plenty of doctrine out there that one can be a conscientious objector of something the church says is okay. Here is an example from a catholic organization of such a statement:
That's great news! Someone won a law against a company forcing the shot on them? I didn't see that. This would be a great start towards ending this madness permanently. Companies need to be sued to kingdom come for forcing shots on employees.
I can only hope that her attorneys fees were not 50% of the judgement. Any judgement such as this where a monetary reward is for lost wages should include an award for attorneys fees so as not to further harm the person who won. Not that I wouldn’t want her attorney paid mind you, it just doesn’t seem fair that she should have to be out that money since she wouldn’t have needed an attorney but for the negligence of BCBS.
Attorneys have bills to pay. Attorneys deserve huge fees in these kinds of cases, in my opinion.
They have to pay in front as a loan to the client for all of the expenses of the case, in order to win it. Filing fees, court, reporter fees, secretarial fees, jury fees, and on and on for thousands and thousands of dollars advanced on behalf of the client.
I don't think 50% is excessive. . . . Sure the client needs money, but to get a lawyer to even TOUCH this case. . . Very brave and trusting of the lawyer to do that
Wow!! In one way, xlnt!! In another... will this bankrupt our hospitals, which are already really hurting by being forced to provide free healthcare for Biden's 50 million illegal parasites?
Had brain surgery two years ago. My insurance sent me an Explanation of Benefits statement. The hospital charged over $50K, Insurance approved $20K, I was asked to pay $200! talk about greed! I wonder how much the actual surgeon got paid
OK, close them down... but AFTER my upcoming minor surgery!! 😬
Seriously... we need them... and maybe TRUMP's HHS guy and a GOP House and Senate can regulate the hell out of them... once he deports ALL the illegals... the pressure will lessen...
So what? They will have to reorganize under a bankruptcy court, or get sold for pennies on the dollar to another, hopefully saner and more ethical management.
More likely an investment entity purchases them creating another mega corporation & they don't give 2 whoots about anyone that requires their services. A very sad state of affairs.
Especially as more and more people have family members and friends potentially affected by all this. And the tide is turning so those people who go with the crowd will also go along with the anti jab crowd once this builds up more steam I think.
I always thought that that official line about how many took the shot was b.s. Based upon personal anecdotal evidence I'd wager that the number is much less. Regardless, I know too many people who were stridently pro-shot but now feel the need to confess to me that I may have been right all along. These people will comprise the jury pool pretty much everywhere.
The one comment to that article is rage inducing. The science does NOT show it prevented Covid or deaths. That commenter and his comment is a direct result of only getting your facts from a corrupt media and believing everything they tell you to believe, for that is the only way you could come to his opinion.
Read the foolish comment on that article! I wanted to comment, but I’m not a subscriber to that paper: “Read the work of Denis Rancourt and others. There were no excess deaths in 2020. Excess deaths leapt after the vaccines started being administered.”
You and a while lot of others didn't see that. When folks would complain to me "well, you can't sue big pharma or the government, I'd have to point out that you CAN sue a company," and watch the little light bulbs go on.

She may have put herself into the running for a SCOTUS seat...
Maybe we can convince Barret to step down and replace her with Cannon
ACB has been such a disappointment.
True... but, of course... better by far than the Sotopig, Bulldyke Kagen or token Kunta-Ketangi...
And I am not thrilled with Roberts at all... or Kavanaugh, who seems to have a decided lack in the testicular dept...
Wouldn't it be great if a President who nominated a SCOTUS Justice could also, at will... remove them? I think Koward Kav and ACB would both be gone when TRUMP returns...
''Humanity is about to be tested....... mayankjeptha.substack.com/p/qbpe
YES!! Barrett has been a HUGE disappointment!!
GREAT idea!
Just use nicotine patches and take Ivermectin at least 2X/month.
Yes, seriously.
I also use Chlorine Dioxide Solution (CDS) daily, but most have never heard of it... Big Pharma calls it "bleach".
More info please. I also do Ivermectin 2x a month
I read it 3 times and thought Jeff turned it around accidentally…I now get it 🤦🏻♀️
I didn't get it until I read the comments. Vaccine injury, I presume.
Yeah, I didn't get it either. I guess I'm too literal.
Being "literal" with Jeff Childers is anathema--LOL!! His pungent wit always aces his commonality - :-)
Well done, Justice Thomas. He has always been my favorite and most respected Supreme, but with this he has risen far and above my former high respect for him. Brilliant!

Agent Smith. Oh! The irony! (The Matrix, for those that shun Sci-Fi.)
Jeff said it first…and there IS that photo of Agent Smith in the article…I just agreed that we should (from now on) refer to the man as such since he’s certainly NOT a “special prosecutor “ in the legal sense of the term.
the laser beams coming out of Justice Thomas's eyes like Godzilla

Need a good video editor to put Biden's face on that first video, as he burns down our country.
Unlike the noxious, flatulencia roaring from the backside of Sotopig Mayor!
IKR?! I loved that pic. Justice Thomas seems like he would have laser beam eyes.
that pic gave me a belly laugh!!
Yea and he is the cockroach!

They have voided their hearts and souls of God, and in its place, demonic, illogical hysteria has implanted itself into their hearts, minds and souls.
I see their hysteria (usually over abortion, alphabet, and sexual themes) as demonic possession.
Coretta Scott King once said: "When the heart is right, the mind and body follow".
(notice how the left has become so demonic that they don't even like Martin Luther King anymore because his words are too logical and spiritual).
What makes you think MLK was a "good" guy? Check again, my friend...
I found this article on ZeroHedge this morning. It shows how truly nuts these people are:
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/democrats-hint-assassination-repsonse-supreme-court-immunity-decision
I am not understanding how all those posts weren't taken down as hate speech. Can the one CA rep be charged with inciting an insurrection?
Because hate speech is a totally made up concept that criminalizes people's thoughts. It's not real thus it's only applied in one direction.
There are already laws against threating to kill people.
Nothing is hate speech when it comes from a dumbocrap.
love that word "dumbocrap"
Thank-you. I made it up many, many years ago. It describes them pretty well.
Perhaps in a fair, rule of law universe where a 'uniparty' does not have exclusive control over the vast majority of social media and operates under two sets of rules.
IF it was a conservative threatening assassination... the FBI would be visiting them the next day, if not within hours... with a CNN camera crew...
If it was a conservative talking about the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand in a lecture at Hillsdale College, the FBI would be paying a visit.
They've been talking assassination for awhile now. Way before this decision. I think it's been their plan all along.
All eyes on Judge Merchan.
I'll also be watching my neighbor with the 'yuge Trump and Gadsden flags who spends the weekend shooting AR-15s with his sons on his farm.

I read this as spiritual awakening.
What we are seeing is demonic possessions.
AMEN!!! May it ever be thus!!!
McVeigh was a patsy for the Deep State.
My thinking about Tim McVeigh and Waco has changed radically over the years. I was horrified then and still am. Now, for different reasons.
Actually "supernatural things" have been 'afoot' since prehistoric times...we just have more "media mites" jumping on juicy tidbits of 'news' now than ever before in human history.
You sound a tad paranoid.
I am a tad paranoid. Joe Biden is president. Taylor Swift is ubiquitous. How did that happen?
When they actually ARE out to get you, you are not paranoid. Just a realist.
Not just talking - I have read of several attempts, if the accounts are credible.
dont they have some SERIOUS security, those guys? as a result of those threats?
That does not surprise me at all.
All these who believed "The Science" are now Constitutional scholars "doing their own research."
It's tiresome.
The irony
No, don’t go there. Never wish evil on anyone ‘cause…. it’s evil to do that. And to be sure, you’re not evil
💯
Because the legislative branch of our Federal government is filled with MORALLY COMPROMISED 'leeches' instead of true Constitutionally sound 'legislators'!! They're ALL IN ON IT!!! There are a few "beacons of light" (like the Freedom Caucus legislators)...but they are very few and far between.
A 'vaccine' syringe does have a plunger, so there's that.
But they should, because I also saw what this meant to previous demon presidents, like the Shrub, Obongo, and Slick Willie. They should be shaking in their boots. As should Biden, if I believed he was actually still alive.

Great comment. I particularly appreciate the additional perspective. You have offered much to think about and truly consider.
The Clintons ushered into our culture and society, the demonic element, fully pushing Christian values and morality aside for good.
I think we can look at things as BC ( before Clinton) and AC (after Clinton).
No, it was here well before that. Before 1871 and the Organic Act. Before Abraham Lincoln was assassinated. Those forces were hard at work. But - they Are a lot more obvious now, less lurking-in-the-shadows.
Perhaps but what I meant is that our culture went through a fundamental and obvious morality change..I remember it clearly through television (everyone was having sex from the older ladies on Golden Girls to Frasier) and pop music took a sexual turn . Religious observation was being replaced by Sunday morning sports practice for children, brunch or jogs for adults. (I remember my Priest being upset about that.) Church going, Sunday school, was no longer the 'thing to do'. Clinton was talking about his wife's necromancy practice of communicating with Eleanor Roosevelt as if it was something everyone did. And his WH antics...
no one will forget, especially the children who were exposed to it and according to a middle school Principal I knew, emulating it behind the bleachers in groups.
Soros started buying up journalism schools and media outlets after Clinton in 2003 and the NWO agenda was in getting a foothold. The next year, the EU consciously removed all mention of its Christian foundation from its constitution.
All this on the surface. God only knows below the surface what was going on.
We truly could not stomach what is "going on" all across the globe. Yahweh is merciful - but NOT FOREVER!
good one
Come on man, you know Biden isn’t shaking in his boots…he doesn’t even know he has boots on!
As I said, I don't even think Biden is still of this earth
You called him Shrub 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank Ann Richards for that one…but anyway, funny how hindsight changes everything . All those times I defended W and Dick Cheney, blaming Dhimmicrat Derangement Syndrome for their histrionics…I have repented of all that now! 🤦🏽♀️
Yes I did the same . You're not alone there .🤦🏻
I second that emotion as well, Susan!! They're "all on the take" in one way or another - they are SO FAR from being "public servants" - it's ludicrous!!
I can take no credit for that. It's what his own ( Bush , actually Scherff) family called him .
Ah ok - well even more hilarious then !
Were they given scores on the way down? :-)
I gave them all "10". The outcome alone justified the effort.
🙌
I’m pretty sure he was making a wink remark about Thomas acting like a clerk on behalf of cannon…
I was thinking that seemed like it should be the other way around, thanks for correcting!
Oops should have read the rest of the comments first 🤪 Now I get it but it wasn’t clear to me either when I read it 😜
I didn’t sleep well. My first thought was How Old IS she?? 😆
😆😂
Having seen pictures of her I knew she couldn’t be older than Thomas so was thinking it must’ve been the other way around 🤪
ok I STILL dont get it. can someone explain the Cannon/Thomas remark like Im 5 yrs old? I thought she's older than she looks, takes good care of herself, etc.
It was a backwards/sarcastic remark meant to imply that Thomas had done the grunt work that Cannon can use for her ruling.
As I read it in the blog, I thought that was backwards so thanks for that clarification.
Awesome analogy!
The more local liberals that plunge to their deaths from nearby bridges and tall buildings, the fewer trials that will be required to purge them from the DoJ.
Aw, let 'em plunge. If they don't do it now, they might when Trump wins in November. LOL.
That sounds more like it.
I took it literally too lol. Glad I checked the comments section.
And He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the lowly, for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
— Matthew 5:2-12 LSB
The Beatitudes. We don’t read or use them often enough. ❤️
Maybe we can get those in schools
excellent point. like Cafeteria Catholics, they take what they like of the Bible and dump the rest. like the ones in the 400s who dumped the Gospels of Thomas and Mary Magdalene to twist the church away from Gnosticism and towards male domination/misogyny. "but the BIBLE SAYS"... etc.
🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣
This passage is a lovely and moving way of expressing the truth that things in the Kingdom are done exactly opposite of the world.
The Lord does indeed teach us patience. And those who trust in His power receive His reward. Yesterday's announcements from SOTUS being a clear example.
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or understand, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
— Ephesians 3:20-21 LSB
One of my top three favorite Bible verses. 😍
Amen!
Thank you for the deep breath and exhalation there, Janice…rather like striking a tuning fork to get us back into the right “vibration”…🙏🏼😇🙏🏼
Lovely reminder! Thank you, Janice!
♥️✝️ Blessed truths from Jesus that will endure throughout eternity, and give us comfort in the here and now.
💜
Ah yes....best to recite these Beatitudes as they will have special significance in the coming months!! Thank you, dear Janice!
Thank you! The Beatitudes are printed on the inside of my kitchen door. I have them there as a reminder before I walk out the door!
❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

The rich, until recently, were right behind this, especially:
Blessed are the lowly, for they shall inherit the earth.
the rich have never been behind that. unless it was as a fantasy to keep the working class in line.
Definitely appreciate the summaries today on the various rulings. Still not crazy about the free speech and private orgs being influenced by the government ruling, but the rest are pretty good. I figured the "partial immunity where it makes sense in a sane world" ruling would be the way it came down. You couldn't rule "absolute immunity" nor could you rule "it's all fair game". You have to have the balance there and that _is_ a good thing.
The concern now is all of the nuts out there trying to claim the current admin could order drone strikes to take out Trump (or other political opponents) and do so with completely immunity. Those people are really concerning because they walk among us and genuinely think that's a good idea. These are all some great rulings, but just like we're seeing in France, we're ramping up for another "Summer of Love" type of insanity. :(
Now to see if courts start (or continue) ruling for people affected by the OSHA mandates and such. I saw the TN award for nearly $700k for one person, which I expect will be challenged and reduced, but that's the first case. We can only hope that this trend will start going far and wide. Companies should have taken a long look at what forcing their employees to take untested medical interventions would do to their bottom line.
I know my company thought that far ahead. I was able to fairly easily obtain an exemption for myself and multiple co-workers. They really only required that you ask for one. And, while not a hospital or medical office, it is a pharmacy with direct patient care giving covid shots (which I also did not do). But there were pharmacists who DID give the shots who were exempted as well so…. While I know they only did so to prevent a shortage of pharmacists (which they certainly would have had if they had denied) I was eternally grateful to have been able to keep my job as there was no force on earth able to make me take that shot.
Broke radius messily Fri. a.m. Saw surgeon yesterday. Wrote, in shaky handwriting, w. signature: no allografts, no xenografts, only autografts, no mRNA products, no blood transfusion from any but husband. Said to P.A. these words: I would rather die than take Covid-jab-tainted blood.
May you heal well and quickly. God bless!
We wanted to “bank blood” for our mom during the height of the vax insanity (because we did not want her to have tainted blood either). It was not going to be an easy process by any means! So for anyone concerned about transfusions, I would research well in advance of any planned surgery what you need to do! Thankfully, my mom chose not to have the surgery so it became a moot point.
Autologous donation was the way to go before an elective procedure even pre-jabs. Seems to be more resistance to that approach now; well, except for the ortho docs.
Ortho yestday said ~2 WK window on repairing fractures. Currently 500 mi from home base.
My husband refused the shot and banked his blood before his colon cancer surgery in 2021.
I second what Jeanne said re: researching this well in advance. We looked into banking my daughter's blood before an elective surgery, and it's a paperwork nightmare that has to be started months in advance.
If you push hard enough, and have a cooperative doc, it can be done in as little as 3 weeks. Contact your local blood bank directly for assistance! (Just don’t mention unvaxxed blood.) Everyone knows it’s safer to use you own…
Woman dies from blood clots after receiving blood transfusion.
https://lionessofjudah.substack.com/p/netherlands-woman-63-dies-from-blood
This is alarming!
Yes, we figured it would happen since the medical community is taking vaxxed blood.
I would grieve for my beloved husband of 52 years, but I am confident of going to the Lord if (a minor) surgery should go awry.
Yep; remember the baby who had extensive clotting after a transfusion?; parents were denied a directed transfusion. If anyone remembers the image, you could see the dilation of the superficial vessels on the chest and abdominal wall due to ‘rerouting’ of blood. 😢😡
Correct.
Did you save a link?
In WW2, Australia used coconuts for plasma when there was a shortage of blood for their soldiers; it’s full of electrolytes and sterile. I’m inclined to start stocking them though I heard rumors of the Christian resistance about a hospital for the pure-blooded 🙏 (this is in The Netherlands but Jeff mentioned he joined a medical community that’s not gone mad). ❤️🥥
Check out ProtocolKills.com website & substack of same name. From attorney Greta Crawford. Tons of info and tips to prepare yourself PRIOR to hospitalization.
Tragically, I believe the remdesivir protocols are still in place.
Also Dr Margaret Aranda has similar info on her substack.
I'm sorry to hear you've been injured. Via, may your recovery be uneventful.
Oh no! Prayers for you and your medical team. May you heal perfectly, quickly. 🙏🤗♥️
I dislocated my shoulder just short of a year ago. I was scared to death, going to the ER and then to the Ortho afterwards. I did not want to do surgery and as it worked out, they agreed! Reasoning was, my shoulder was so bad from previous abuse, surgery wasn’t recommended.
I’m sure they would have done it if I had asked for it though, and that’s a problem.
So sorry! ❤️🙏🏻❤️
And did they respect your requirements?
You are the exception, unfortunately for the rest of the country or the world.
But I’m so happy for you and I’m sure your company is looking really smart now.
Aloha, Irunthis1! Can you share the name of your company? I’m an attorney representing employees fired for requesting a religious accommodation from the Covid vax. Generally the employer denied the accommodation on the basis of a purported undue hardship, that being the unvaxed were an alleged threat to others. But being able to tell the court that many companies- including those providing healthcare - granted accommodations can help to beat that dubious defense (indeed, even the CDC granted hundreds of accommodations and did not fire any of its employees who requested accommodations). If you’re comfortable doing so (I would not use your name, just the name of the company) feel free to email me at joegomesesq@gmail.com. Thank you in advance!
My husband was granted a religious exemption from the City of Milwaukee. Very grateful to Jeff to this day for helping lay out the format for us on this blog.
Consider using Conscientious Objector instead of Religious reasons. It indicates a thoughtful, rational decision to decline the vaccine. It would benefit those who don't have a religious belief.
I went with religious because of the stronger laws on the books in my state with regards to exemptions. I wanted to do a medical but so many doctors were just playing along and screwing it up for everyone who had legitimate medical concerns--e.g. telling people who clearly had a severe adverse event to get another dose or telling people with anaphylactic reactions they had to get one anyway---completely insane advice. So religious made more sense.
Curious which religion provides that exemption.
Well I’m catholic but there is plenty of doctrine out there that one can be a conscientious objector of something the church says is okay. Here is an example from a catholic organization of such a statement:
https://www.ncbcenter.org/ncbc-news/vaccineletter
That's great news! Someone won a law against a company forcing the shot on them? I didn't see that. This would be a great start towards ending this madness permanently. Companies need to be sued to kingdom come for forcing shots on employees.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of TN had to pay $700,000 to someone they fired for not taking the jab. The damn has been breached!
I can only hope that her attorneys fees were not 50% of the judgement. Any judgement such as this where a monetary reward is for lost wages should include an award for attorneys fees so as not to further harm the person who won. Not that I wouldn’t want her attorney paid mind you, it just doesn’t seem fair that she should have to be out that money since she wouldn’t have needed an attorney but for the negligence of BCBS.
Attorneys have bills to pay. Attorneys deserve huge fees in these kinds of cases, in my opinion.
They have to pay in front as a loan to the client for all of the expenses of the case, in order to win it. Filing fees, court, reporter fees, secretarial fees, jury fees, and on and on for thousands and thousands of dollars advanced on behalf of the client.
I don't think 50% is excessive. . . . Sure the client needs money, but to get a lawyer to even TOUCH this case. . . Very brave and trusting of the lawyer to do that
Especially since every lawsuit is a crapshoot. I've won cases that I thought were unwinnable, and lost cases I initially thought were unloseable.
Typically, though it does vary, plaintiff attorneys reap about 30% of a settlement or jury award. See Lamed's excellent comment.
But also without that attorney taking the case when nobody what’s wheeling it could never had happened.
Thanks to the lawyer for risking everything and got it to the other said.
In other jurisdiction the losing side also has to pay the winning side's legal fees.
Wow. That is good news. My husband had said wait until the companies are sued for requiring it.
I am so thankful his company never did and we did not need an exemption.
It will be good to see college administrators being sued as well.
Yes! It is really a travesty what many kids went thru feeling like they would never have college without it. I know few who abstained. 😩
A good few of the kids who didn't have since abstained from life.
Bingo! And they should. It's the same dynamic
They will be
Same!!
❤️❤️❤️
Wow!! In one way, xlnt!! In another... will this bankrupt our hospitals, which are already really hurting by being forced to provide free healthcare for Biden's 50 million illegal parasites?
Not one drop of pity for these greedy hospitals!
They’ll charge you $500 for a Kleenex without blinking an eye. Make them pay.!💰
And hospital administrators should be tossed out on their a#$es . . . and that is the nicest thing I can hope for them.
Had brain surgery two years ago. My insurance sent me an Explanation of Benefits statement. The hospital charged over $50K, Insurance approved $20K, I was asked to pay $200! talk about greed! I wonder how much the actual surgeon got paid
OK, close them down... but AFTER my upcoming minor surgery!! 😬
Seriously... we need them... and maybe TRUMP's HHS guy and a GOP House and Senate can regulate the hell out of them... once he deports ALL the illegals... the pressure will lessen...
I’m with you
So what? They will have to reorganize under a bankruptcy court, or get sold for pennies on the dollar to another, hopefully saner and more ethical management.
More likely an investment entity purchases them creating another mega corporation & they don't give 2 whoots about anyone that requires their services. A very sad state of affairs.
Unfortunately, won’t happen in Michigan. Our governor’s daddy is a bigwig in Michigan BCBS.
Juries are funny. You would be surprised. If I am BCBSM, I would be worried.
Especially as more and more people have family members and friends potentially affected by all this. And the tide is turning so those people who go with the crowd will also go along with the anti jab crowd once this builds up more steam I think.
I always thought that that official line about how many took the shot was b.s. Based upon personal anecdotal evidence I'd wager that the number is much less. Regardless, I know too many people who were stridently pro-shot but now feel the need to confess to me that I may have been right all along. These people will comprise the jury pool pretty much everywhere.
what is BCBSM?
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan that also is being sued by several hundred employees who were fired for refusing to take the shot.
Lot of pressure to run Big Gretch to replace O'Biden.
Big Retch
The "BitchWitch"?? She is hideous, inside and out.
🤮
Wow!! I didn’t know that. I wonder if they both took the shot… or just pretended to??
Biden's meteoric downward spiral since taking them, implies he actually did. Plus, just after he caught so-called covid multiple times.
https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/p/jury-awards-687000-to-bluecross-blueshield
That’s fantastic!!!!
Yes Second Smartest Guy SubStack did a story on it all.
Was wonderful to read others may pursue as well
I sure did not know about that !

The one comment to that article is rage inducing. The science does NOT show it prevented Covid or deaths. That commenter and his comment is a direct result of only getting your facts from a corrupt media and believing everything they tell you to believe, for that is the only way you could come to his opinion.
Gates/Soros etc. have hired thousands of social media 'warriors'. Plus all the bots.
Read the foolish comment on that article! I wanted to comment, but I’m not a subscriber to that paper: “Read the work of Denis Rancourt and others. There were no excess deaths in 2020. Excess deaths leapt after the vaccines started being administered.”
https://www.globalresearch.ca/covid-19-vaccine-associated-mortality-in-the-southern-hemisphere/5832840
He also found a death rate of 5% for very elderly after their 4th jab.
Thanks for the link!
Thank you !!!
AND colleges!!
Great add! May those nests of Marxist indoctrination be bankrupted and SOON!
Slimy Teachers Unions too?
Them too!!
You and a while lot of others didn't see that. When folks would complain to me "well, you can't sue big pharma or the government, I'd have to point out that you CAN sue a company," and watch the little light bulbs go on.
