Talk about dodging a vice presidential bullet. Holy smokes!....between It and that Kamala creature we'd be deader than a rusty cross dressing nail. I'll never forget that video during the Covid Operation of his cronies - purported to be National Guard - launching rubber slugs at some rambunctious folks who had the audacity to be out on their porch during a seasonal flu. Lesson leard....No more freaks!

Operation Covid.....and not a single person yet to be held culpable. (David Martin's systematic revelations be damned!) How lovely, and not the least bit infuriating. Since there doesn't appear to be anything on the table concerning this matter, here's a thought: If we’re going to get REALLY serious about drug trafficking can we make a little boy’s (Okay, it’s me) Make-A-Wish dream come true? Can we scrape some funds together for Fauci so he can enjoy an all expense paid vacation to Aruba? What a great opportunity for him and some of his buddies to get out on the open waters and relish the day on a rented ā€œfishing boat."šŸ˜‰šŸ’„šŸ”„

The East side is far more sane and conservative than the Maritime side, so unless your house abuts Whitman, or WSU, you're spared a significant amount of lunacy, but still stuck with the destruction derby of Olympia.

I served my time in Washington and my wife and I both retired from practice. After the nonsense of COVID, the stranglehold of Pharma and the Insurance industries, we went to our financial planner and asked, "when?". He said, "why not now"?

We chose to move close to our daughter, but it was also based on what we like to do, which is hike, rock climb, garden, have a good fitness center nearby, and plenty of open space and little traffic. We each have a space to explore our passions--her's is quilting, mine is writing music.

What is your dream place? What appeals to you? If still working, what about that? If retired, how much support from family, a community, and healthcare do you anticipate needing?

I wish I could say you were wrong. In my blue county, 2022 voters re-elected a county executive and legislature that was overwhelmingly incompetent, grifty (and maybe some fraud in there) and who raised property taxes with an assessment process that was totally devoid of reason. Voters rose up and we successfully recalled the executive. All 9 legislators are up for re-election this year, plus the new D interim exec. There are 2 red districts, 4 blue ones and 3 at-large seats. Would put money on seeing the same 7-2 split and a D exec getting elected. Knocked a lot of doors for the conservatives who ran in 2022, and all I heard at the doors was "are they Trump supporters?" and "are they pro-Choice?". Never mind this was a COUNTY race.

Locally, people don't like to know that things are not as sunshine and roses as they think it is. I remember the local news people interviewing voters as they came out of polling places after suburban school board races a couple of years ago, where nearly every district in the area had a slate of 'reform' candidates, pushing back on the porn in the libraries, DEI, and pointing out falling math and reading scores. Every single one of them lost, and most were not even close. Voters interviewed almost all said things like "they were trying to make our schools look bad, we love our schools/teachers" or "these candidates were so negative, we have a wonderful community here". In other words, head in the sand is very comfortable, don't disturb my illusion. They'd rather punish the messenger rather than face reality.

We had something similar happen in my city this past election.

Now, all of these policies and crap the people voted to stop by putting in common sense candidates in the election before this last one is being unraveled due to this idiocy of the voting public.

Then, again, someone also made a comment where they think our side actually won because the one of the candidates that is now city council was behind surged to win over the next three weeks of ā€œvote counting.ā€

MO does have voter ID, and I have worked as election judge for almost every election since 2019 and have seen the ID rule enforced consistently since it passed in 2022.

Yes, I try to preach this to anyone who will listen. LOCAL MATTERS!

I have many friends sending me clips from national stories all day long. But if I send something about a school board meeting or county hearing, crickets. Oh there's a handful of us, but many have dropped out due to losses, or think Trump's win solved the problems. Our county-wide monthly grassroots group used to have ~250 people every month.

Yes, it was Tom Emmer, his remarks played on one of the talk radio shows I was listening to in my car. Can't find the clip, Newsweek covered the blowback he is getting:

At the 2015 event, Emmer said, according to the podcast: ā€œI'm going to tell you, the Somalis, according to the measurements that have been used over time, are some of the fastest-assimilating populations that we've had."

Emmer also said, ā€œIf you're asking me how I feel about immigrant populations who are in this country legally, and who are actually trying to find a better way for themselves and their families, I support it wholeheartedly. I mean, the Germans had the same problem when they came over. The Polish had the problem. The Chinese had the problem.ā€

Jeff Childers mentioned Trump took on Minnesota first to get traction with a smaller win, but there is another aspect. This one was easy because the crooks are incredibly stupid.

As you mention, Somalians have an absurdly low average IQ, the most reliable number I've seen quoted is 68. So fully half of Somalians would be considered mentally retarded under US legal standards.

It has been demonstrated over and over that low IQ people have poor impulse control, and don't fully grasp delayed gratification. They think in the moment and don't consider long term consequences (which is why so many street criminals are often really stupid people). There are countless research papers on this, but for anyone who has ever watched the TV show COPS, it is painfully obvious.

So there was unimaginable wholesale fraud occurring, but the people perpetrating it were too stupid to cover their tracks in any way. They figured since they hadn't been caught yet they'd never get caught. It was all right there in the open, that's why a 22 year old youtuber was able to easily expose the whole thing.

Since most of the perpetrators where imbeciles, that means someone(s) in authority had to be covering for them if not orchestrating the whole thing. That's why Walz is going down, he obviously knew and was facilitating it. Which also shows Walz is a complete moron, as no one of any intelligence would ever have their fate wrapped up with the actions of a crooked 68 IQ clan.

I have a question about the Somalians in MN, I do not know if anyone can answer it. But are there a lot of cousin marriages among them? This is extremely common in some Muslim societies. That could be a big part of the explanation. An extremely unhealthy practice.

That plays a role no doubt, but there is almost certainly a genetic aspect.

Now couple that low IQ, low impulse control, with a near total absence of Western Christian morality. Not only do they lack the intelligence to comprehend the consequences, but they have no moral framework to constrain their behavior.

This was as predictable as the rising sun, but Americans have been brainwashed to think they are never allowed to notice such things.

I agree. And disagree with Jeff that the Minnesota governorship is already lost for Democrats. In fact betting lines still favor the dems by a large margin. Between 81 and 87 percent odds of Democrat victory. Jeff is wise and insightful in many areas, but seems to have rose-colored glasses when it comes to assessing the minds of blue state residents. They are hopeless automatons who cannot be reached. Add in the fact a Republican would have to win a legitimate vote count by a large margin to overcome "other factors".

As soon as RFK and the Admin have removed 55 of 88 Quaxcines from the "schedule"

and funded monies for health improvement we have this turd: (Credit Natalie Winters

Jan 6)

The swamp is deep and wide:

An exclusive review of Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) grants reveal nearly $350 million in taxpayer funds funneled into vaccine promotion campaigns to combat ā€œmisinformationā€ and ā€œvaccine hesitancy.ā€

Many of these grants - which cover 40 states and 7 territories - focus on promoting vaccine use among children. Despite HHS removing the Hepatitis B vaccine from the children’s immunization schedule, million-dollar grants have gone towards promoting this vaccine in children.

In plain terms: public money is being used to change what Americans think. Skepticism itself is treated as a public health threat.

The 54 grants totaling $338.36 million began on July 1st 2025 and are slated to end June 30th, 2030.

Universal Vaccines

One state, Maine, is using the funds to roll out a Universal Adult Immunization program.

ā€œA significant component of MIP’s future efforts involves developing a universal adult immunization program, ensuring equitable vaccine access for individuals over 19 while reducing healthcare costs,ā€ summarizes the Maine grant. ā€œThrough sustained funding, MIP aims to safeguard public health by ensuring vaccine accessibility, countering misinformation, and maintaining high immunization rates across Maine,ā€ it continues.

Children Are the Target

A major share of the funding focuses on child vaccination campaigns, including school-linked outreach and parent-directed messaging. Even more striking: several programs explicitly promote Hepatitis B vaccines for children, pouring millions into awareness and compliance campaigns.

Some grants are quite explicit: ā€œincreased access to vaccines for eligible children.ā€

So they voted him off the flying monkey team."

The flying monkey analogy is best ever. Another DemonRat deposed summarily. Life is but a dream.

T Waltz (intentional) is on the short list for further prosecution. He is one of those weak defendants mentioned.

The fake news as always deflects and publishes fake news.

Venezuelans Rejoice – Socialism Failed Yet Again

...Over 7.7 million people have fled Venezuela due to one of the worst economic collapses in modern history not attributed to war. GDP contracted 80% from 2013, according to the IMF. Inflation reached an astounding 130,060% by 2018, the bolivar collapsed, prices doubled daily, and people were forced to carry carts of worthless cash for basic purchases. Around 30% of the population lived in poverty in 2013. Fast forward to 2025, roughly 87% to 90% of the population lives in extreme poverty and despair.

People wonder why Venezuelans are cheering Maduro’s downfall from the safety of their first-world suburbs. Older generations remember a time when Venezuela was a thriving economic powerhouse before it rapidly fell under socialism. Oil was insufficient to sustain a system that rendered innovation and productivity worthless...

Thanks, CC. That is a fact-filled rundown of CIA allying with drug runners since the 70s.

I have noticed that that coup is routinely left off the list of US-backed coups that circulate every time the US overthrows another government. Why? Is it because a Nazi ratline survivor was involved?

Anyway, that was a nice, if brief, round-up of the US government's double standards for drug running, and how they use it.

Since then, I've lived in Ventura Cnty and Orange Cnty... yes, I dare say CA is more conservative, even RED than what they want us to believe... Remember, DECEPTION is the name of the game!

The Childhood Schedule may have been slashed, but unfortunately a mom or dad can still make a "shared decision" with a pro-jab doctor to inject the kid with a Covid vaccine.

As someone who’s covered vaccines for quite sometime, this is a phenomenal win.

But you’re absolutely right. We need to keep on going because when you examine the data even further, you realize that vaccines have no benefit and actually increase harm and sickness. Covid vaccines are the worse.

Reducing it down from 55 doses is a huge win, but when we get rid on the schedule completely, then we can truly celebrate.

If it is not on the "schedule" the Covid vax will lose its liability shield and it could become unavailable because the manufacturers won't want risk of payouts for lawsuits. I don't think in reality people will have that choice for too long. But for those who still think they want it, it softens the blow to think they can still get it and HHS has not taken it away from them. It's not being unapproved but it's just not on the schedule. And its brilliant because the manufacturers know it is not safe, and they will pull it themselves if they are outside the parameters for the liability shield. Plus, I hope Congress will do away with the liability shield anyway. But the manufacturers know. Pfizer knows.

A shocking whistleblower from within the hospital system has come forward with a grave warning: the term ā€œvaccineā€ is quietly disappearing from medical consent forms — replaced with the broad and deceptive category of ā€œBiologicsā€ or ā€œBiogenics.ā€ So watch what you sign if you have to get something done.

Under this new classification, patients could be injected with vaccines and other biological products without their explicit consent — even while unconscious under anesthesia.

Walz is owed a debt of gratitude. Against all odds and despite his obvious shortcomings, he oversaw an enviable money and vote harvesting machine that cemented MN as a Democrat stronghold. Not because there were more Democrats than republicans, but that there were more democrat votes. It only takes a few thousand votes to swing the local and state balance of power, locking in a cushy sinecure for Amy Klobuchar. MN's other Senate seat is up for grabs this year, so damage control is a high priority. Everyone's hands are dirty, but Walz is a comical boob that almost generates his own memes.

Fewer expectations of, and less money to, big nanny fed govt (and little tyrants on local/state levels) and greater self-reliance -- renewing these traditional pioneer values will be a long battle, really never-ending as long as human nature and centralizing-power incentives remain.
