I can’t fathom how “drag” is somehow less offensive and demeaning than “blackface.” Both feature people not part of a particular group making fun of that group.

Similar to the cries of Cultural Appropriation if we dress up as cowboys and indians.

But men acting as women? The ultimate appropriation to steal a whole gender class...

Also it is not enough for the Florida department of education to call that school. They should spend an unannounced week at that school and school district to see what else those groomers are up to. That district is rotten to the core. Don't trust the administration and teachers to not go underground with their perversion.

There is an old saying something about a rolling donut.

Maybe that's what the drag guys want since they don't like real women except to play on their sports teams?

Really...THIRD YEAR...Orlando’s Boone High School...

A “Drag and Donuts” event set to be held at a Florida school for a THIRD year has been canceled, officials said.

An LGBTQ student club at Boone High School in Orlando planned to welcome guest Jason DeShazo...He was scheduled to dress in drag and share his “story as a queer person” on Thursday, March 23, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

The annual after-school gathering wasn’t going to be a drag show but instead was an “opportunity for the students to hear a positive message of acceptance and love,” an Orange County Public Schools spokesperson told McClatchy News in an email.

Since when has lgbtq become an academic extracurricular activity? Teens don’t need to have that placed front & center at their school. They have enough distractions as it is with sex as it is at this age. Or is that the point of the clown show drag queen hour.

Expand full comment

It’s not an academic course and shouldn’t be an extracurricular activity in schools! But it shows that the mission of public schools is no longer to educate students in core academics, critical thinking or the sciences. The goal is to indoctrinate and influence young people to their perverted ideology and to sexualize children at a young age. They want a godless culture where there are no traditional values, no moral absolutes and no standards for behavior. Furthermore, it’s an assault on the traditional family structure.

It's all about the "global agenda" of the WEF - the "stakeholder" philosophy where corporations are now "graded" on their ESG policies (Environment/Social Equity/Governance). If they don't go along with the WEF's ESG policies they are "downgraded" on the various stock exchanges and their stocks will plummet. You see...it's not about "trannies"/lesbians/homosexuals/non binary/queers--it's REALLY about 'POWER AND GREED'. It's what "runs" this evil-minded world in which we all live (for now anyway).

Okay, maybe it's offensive, but I think it's a hoot.

I was in a very woke neighborhood the other day, buying some organic stuff in the food co-op, when in walks some guy in make-up, blowed-out hair, and high heels. That's all I could see out of the corner of my eye because I refused to look at him dead-on as he was so obviously BEGGING FOR ATTENTION, flailing about, using his higher register as he tried chatting with everyone in his sing-song "look-at-me-aren't-I-interesting-and-shocking" voice.

I was like, "No. You are not getting any attention or any validation from me. You will become invisible to me. Plus, you could NEVER outdo my ability to be a natural woman--or even come close. Just try to call me homophobic or transphobic. Just try you little character-acting weasel."

I know he was trying to engage me. I know it was bothering him that I blocked him. It was fun.

Ignoring outrageous behavior is best for sure, because they’re obviously seeking attention. But I stopped shopping at ULTA, the women’s cosmetics store, because they put their trans employees at the checkout counter where it’s hard to ignore them.

Expand full comment

Same here, ok fine do a drag show in some venue, people who want to see that sort of thing can pay to attend, I don’t care. If someone finds that entertaining, fine. Not my cup of tea, personally, but I’m not going to stop an adult from seeing them.

But where I draw the line is when they start saying that they ARE women, as real as biological women, just because they think they are and dress up in this wildly exaggerated way. They are not women and never will be. They are men dressing up as caricatures of women. Which is what my problem was with Ulta’s advertising. I don’t care if these people want to buy makeup in the stores where I am shopping or even if the company wants to advertise to that very small niche demographic. But stop calling them women. That’s just pandering and it is insulting to real women.

We went to a Rodizio brazilian steak house last weekend... and yes, they had a trans visiting the tables.

The difference is they expect us to take them seriously in clown costumes.

It is discriminatory and offensive to exclude women from their own spaces, and for a guy in sheep’s clothing showing women how much better physically s/he is than women.

The extremes bring the opposite side of the spectrum to the center. Happens all the time.

1960s “bra burners” were caricatures and changed laws.

1950s “coat hanger” fiction changed laws.

Kinsey’s fantasy (& child molestation) book with prostitutes and pedophiles as his “subjects” created statistics out of whole cloth, on which abortion stat voters still hang their hats. His “facts” on early child sexual experiences were conducted by pedophiles on babies and children.

ABCD++ want to move the goalposts to allow any cravings for anyone in any clothes or skin. Destroy the person, destroy the family, destroy resistance. I feel for the confused who are being manipulated into further mental distress. And when they realize there is no going back...

You know I wonder how much it has to do with environmental estrogens, or social media. When I was a teenager, back in the Paleolithic, we all wanted to be androgynous, David Bowie-ish, but it was something internal, and mostly about not wanting to be like our parents. My sister was a major tomboy, hated pink, didn't want to play with dolls. None of this was medicalized or pathologized, and we changed, as teenagers do. Turned out my sister was an actress, ended up in theatre and in Ringling, and then running a circus program. All the young students were from what she called "the island of misfit toys," theatrical kids, clowning kids, creative kids. The significant thing was their uniqueness, which might've involved traditional male or female thinking or behaviors or sexuality. I think it is just really profitable but psychologically devastating to freeze these children when they are growing up or

The typical retort is that drag is different from blackface because it somehow "celebrates" women. But if you think about it: What was so offensive about blackface?

Jim Olson-yes, exactly! But seeing this complete refusal to engage with any reason, logic or critical thinking (on which succeeding in education used to be based) - in favour of coercion "just because" (as in my workplace currently, where managers are selected for this automaton- like logic- blindness and simply state their authority and what you "must" do in a new diktat, even when you make a clear, reasoned and logical case based on a health condition for eg, and their logic is not only illegal in the discrimination laws but also patently flawed as it's not applied consistently, making their appeals to "health and safety" completely redundant) - the ability to make a reasoned, logical case has been not only demoted but thrown out.

Just coercion because " I say so" and rising authoritarianism is in vogue, since it was officially "authorised"- & those to whom it appeals got the taste for it, I guess.

Expand full comment

You strike at the core of it. Absent reasoning, and all of the skill and knowledge it takes thereunto, what is left? An empty shell of a human being? And thus the non-thinking automaton becomes wholly dehumanized.

As I read your rather nicely crafted comment, my mind wandered to Transhumanism and Singularity. With 'augmentation', as they like to say, what is left of the human being and his humanity? Especially once the words 'programmable, hacked and/or other-directed' are taken into account. And by the way, stripping everyone of their humanity is intrinsic to the whole damnable Tyranny/Control Model being imposed upon us.

When I was young, appearance counted a lot in getting hired. How one looked and acted, carried himself, counted for much. Why? Because an employer used that as an indication of judgment. Moreover, employers wanted someone who could 'think on their feet'. A non-thinking person was not wanted. But what do we now get with Woke? A very compromised pre-programmed person. And in the World of Woke only the Woke of the Moment counts and none of the damage done to the long term viability of a civilization is ever considered. Instead, everything is only an automated means to a dubious end. The Ukraine Debacle is a prime example of nothing thought out. No off ramp. No reverse gear. No contingency plans.

I always thought old-school Drag shows were to celebrate women. I think back to that 90s movies "To Wong Fu, Thanks for everything Julie Newmar" or "The Birdcage".

These days it's all sexual perversion. The drag queens are all gross, ugly men who get their jollies enticing little kids.

How does drag celebrate women though? I don’t get that assertion, makes no sense to me.

It doesn't - it denigrates women AND men...that's always been my thinking. Never thought it was "entertainment" and NOW...it's just plain desperately DISGUSTING!

Those shows got their drag foot in the door.

Evil creeps in a little at a time so it goes unnoticed and unchallenged, until it rears its ugly head.

That happens with pretty much everything...food, morals, music, TV language/sex, clothing, pedos, medical, schools/curriclum, false history...

Actually...I was never a fan of cross dressing or drag--considered it to be gender bending and not that entertaining. But...to each his own. HOWEVER...the caveat for ME is NO DRAG SHOWS IN SCHOOLS or DRAGSTERS giving "talks" to children under the age of 12. It's ludicrous--a pastor couldn't give talk about Biblical subject matters--even "bible clubs" are discouraged now! Our moral decay is SO apparent!!

It's definitely not over. My 18 year fire career is over.

We all had approved religious exemptions and she still fired us.

I’m so sorry. I also live in Washington state and lost my job not because of the federal mandate but because the company I have been with for 25 years decided to mandate it.

It’s such a beautiful place but we really need to change the political culture here, and we really need to get rid of it Governor Inslee.

I attended drag shows in Columbus, Ohio in the mid 90s with a pair of close, gay friends. They would start after midnight at a bar in downtown. The performers clearly put a lot of energy, time and money into making themselves look like women, and at first glance, I really couldn't tell they weren't. Mostly the height and large feet and hands gave it away. Most wore full length gowns and tried to look classy. One performer wore a 1 piece swimsuit for one routine, but it was not revealing. No one was exposing any parts. No one was overweight. There wasn't any bad makeup, gaudiness, sexualized moves, and there sure as hell were not any children there. Even a show like that, even though there was no trashiness, would not have been a good place for kids. I can only imagine what a drag show would look like now (I have no desire to go) but judging from videos I've seen, they are trash and sexualized fetish shows. I think the real question is why would the adults WANT children at those shows? Who wants to perform explicit acts for children? Answer to both: they're pedophiles.

I think they ushered in these drag shows and desensitized people to trans whatever…. By keeping it “classy” (says with sarcasm) …. Until it wasn’t. By then, they had already swung the pendulum in their favor. Now they are showing up everywhere and we can’t figure out why. Take it back to the 80’s and 90’s (and much further back) and then it’ll make sense.

That was so disturbing that I couldn’t finish it. Skimmed. If it is that hard for us to read about it’s beginnings imagine what is actually happening with more than just mere words. Blah. I don’t need to imagine that filth.

Reminds me (but no correlation as I am not okay with kids having access to pornographic books) of the school boards that refuse to listen to the filthy books being read aloud that they are ok with the kids reading on their own. Criminal.

It also reminds me of abortion and if people really wanted the know the origin of something they would take an honest look at Margaret Sanger and see why she championed abortion. It’s shameful.

But it’s better to plug our ears so we can’t hear the truth than to face the facts of these things. None of this just appeared out of thin air. It started somewhere. Like I said, I couldn’t even finish reading about where the drag stuff originated.

I hope this comes out right - it's hard sometimes in writing.... From where I sit (and this is only my opinion) I have no problem with adults doing what they want to do providing no one is getting hurt, everyone is actively consenting (meaning they aren't just doing something because they're so drunk they have no idea what is going on) and *everyone* involved is an adult. However, I am absolutely disgusted and infuriated by any type of sexual or even slightly suggestive acts or displays around children. That is the lowest class of a person that does this and they need to be in jail or worse. The drag story hours and perversion around kids would NOT have been happening even 10 years ago. It's wrong and it absolutely should be 100% illegal. There's something wrong with parents who take their kids to these things. As a survivor of sexual abuse, this whole idea of exposing kids to anything sexual makes me irate. Perhaps early shows like the ones I saw lead to a slippery slope - I don't know. I do know that what is going on now is wrong.

Well said. The only problem I see is tracing this back to its inception the whole goal of live and let live, was supposed to lead to the children. It’s their sick evil depraved minds that will never let it stop at live and let live.

But how do you decide when "No one" is getting "hurt"? No man is an island.

That can't be my determination - it has to be the determination of the participants. I just don't see a problem with consenting adults (adults only) doing what they want with their lives. If an adult male wants to dress up like a girl and whack his parts off - as insane and completely mentally ill as I think that is - that's his business. I think it's totally messed up if he has children who have to witness that fiasco, but where do we draw a line in the sand or do "we" even have a right to? It's not an easy answer. I'm sure there are plenty of folks who would define my absolute refusal to go anywhere near a doctor for over 30 years as harming myself and harming family because my life "might" be shortened as a result. Should someone have the right to tell me I must see a doctor because someone might get hurt? I certainly was/am accused of harming others for three years by refusing to stay home, to mask or use sanitizer, and refusing all tests and jabs, not to mention calling it the "scamdemic". My actions had consequences: I lost a job opportunity and all but one family member, plus all friends. I was called a lunatic, dangerous, evil, and even a murderer once. You're absolutely right that no one is an island, but I also support peoples' rights to make their own decisions.

When Obama termed America a post-Christian society, the alleged Christians of the country were all indignant, very angry. But Obama was right. Let me give you an example. My wife and I were around five years in a little Virginian country Baptist church. Very nice people ...BUT not once did we ever study from the Baptist Confession of Faith of 1689 or the Catechism (1693). And we barely knew what this was other than something we had never seen. And we never heard anything about adoption, justification and sanctification. Didn't not even know that these existed. No church history. No reading of historical documents. In short, deader than a dead anechoic chamber. Once I read R. J. Rushdoony's Institutes of Biblical Law, vol. 1 and Edward Gibbon on Church history, my jaw nearly dropped off. I now realize that most of what passes for Christianity in America is in fact largely heretical. And if they who profess and yet are invincibly steeped in ignorance, if these have even have an inkling of what I am getting at, then most of these 'Christians' would be in fits of anger.

From what I know now, Christianity in the America is now a profession of the blind leading the blind. And if there ever was a verse applicable to the state of the present day American Church, it is Hosea 4:6. And the part of this that anguishes me the most these days is the abandonment of the children to a most squalid culture ... and so bereft of a wholesome Christian upbringing both in faith as well as in studied letters.

Your words are music to my ears brother. I extensively read good ol' RJ Rushdoony when he was alive and learned so much. And it is so true you never hear of the bedrock Biblical doctrines of adoption, justification and sanctification. I don't even remember hearing them in a PCA church I use to attend.

Hosea 4:6 is THE prophecy for our time and it is heart breaking....

They just happened to be gay and just wanted to live their lives, not parade or boast about their sexuality. I've lost contact with them, but last I heard, they are still together since 1990.

Yes, I used to know a 'woman' who did drag, but she was older, she was like a mother hen to that particular gay community.

IMO he recently disqualified himself for president in 2024 by caving to neocon pressure and spouting the old "Russia is just a gas station posing as a country" trope. He said that in February 2021 and then didn't seem to talk about Ukraine until recently. (I assumed, apparently incorrectly, that this was because he realized that he didn't know enough about the subject to knowledgeably opine on it publicly.} Given his recent statements, I have concluded he currently lacks necessary understanding and backbone.

This really set me aback too! And how stupid is it to use a trite clown trope as in 'stupid is what stupid does'. And as to Russia, the alleged 'gas station' appears to be dancing circles around the Great Woke Empire whose only expertise lies in blowing up pipelines ... and not in building them!

And your second point regarding being out 'out of his depth' on policy considerations also hit me like a ton of bricks. I figure that the Cretins will run circles around the clueless ... and we certainly don't need more of that.

Yes. He is on the board of Fox News. Swamp creature and traitor. He did everything he could when in office to advance the uniparty agenda including working against Trump.

Love what DeSantis is saying about CBDC. Voted for Trump twice but truly cannot stand him now. The jabs at DeSantis anger me deeply. I went from being 'meh' on DeSantis in 2018 to believing he's the best governor I've seen in my lifetime, having lived in Florida for over 20 years. We need real competence in leadership, not some fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants management style. I won't forget everything DeSantis did to mitigate covidianism. Nor will I forget everything Trump did to tee it up.

I can get this...I was kind of split until recently I saw that he funded GAVI when he pulled us out of the WHO. Wow, so let the fox directly into the hen house, then. GAVI is Gates organization, how could he have not known better than to give him 1.6 billion of our tax dollars?

We can’t definitively know the answer...but I usually end up backing Trump. His record for good domestic and international decisions overall is the best of any POTUS we have had in my lifetime...unless we can bring back the other actor...Ronnie Reagan.

I respect some of the things Gates personally did. I admit I haven't read his biography. Yet I know that he and his fledgling Microsoft can take personal credit for Microsoft BASIC, one of the better operating systems of the late 1970s. That's why it was found on many of the very earliest home PCs in the late 70s early 80s. Gates's and Microsoft's later success can largely be laid to luck; in 1981 IBM picked his as the OS for their not-yet-released PC. It wasn't even their first choice.

yeah, my issues with him are not so much about his Microsoft days, and more around his trying to reduce population, testing vaccines on African countries for years, messing with our food supply, bribing politicians to get our tax dollars, and then of course everything related to his adventures on Epstein Island.

Remember history correctly, though. DeSantis was following the advice of his then Surgeon General, a true lefty, as are about 99% of everyone in Public Health. Who closed the beaches, for example? Was that counties or cities? I think it was close to November 2020 or so before DeSantis started really realizing, or at least acting on, the truth, and he had Kristi Noem as an example of someone taking the constitutional stand.

Another fact, that I only remember because I moved back to Palm Beach County in JULY 2020 - when we got here our beaches were open. I distinctly remember it because I live across from the beach and the very first night my spouse and I spent in our new home - we walked over there.

It was around spring break that they were closed, if I remember correctly. At the time, I said it made more sense to close the hotels and open the beaches.

True, and he's done far more than that, once he figured things out.

Same here. I’d like to see their little feud disappear into the night with DeSantis focusing on Florida. There’s a lot more problems here than just protecting our rights and medical freedom. A LOT.

Don’t know what all the answers are for these issues, but they are getting worse everyday that he does not address them. 🤷‍♀️

The feud is not really Trump vs. DeSantis. It’s Trump vs. the GOPe. Too bad DeSantis elected to align himself with the Globalists. He seemed to have potential, but that’s looking more and more like a media mirage.

Expand full comment

Just one problem with that. If DeSantis is aligned with the Globalists then he has become a traitor to them by opposing the Gov't owned CBDC scheme. This is a lynch pin in their plans to subjugate America. Don't pay attention so much to what is said but rather to their actions. With this action, DeSantis has openly declared war on the Globalists and I can hear the grinding of teeth all the way from DAVOS because they know he can cause the liberty states to close ranks and follow him in a frontal assault against the Nazi/Bolshevik Neo-cons occupying the seats of power in DC. He is the Nation's Governor.

Trump is our President in Exile and the point man America will back to challenge the illegitimate usurpers in the White House who took control of the apparatus of power through a fraudulent election coup in 2020.

There are two fronts to this war and the enemy desperately wants to convince us that our enemy is each other and keep us divided against each other. This tactic will fail. Both Trump and DeSantis by now are fully aware what is involved in this war and who the real enemy is. This is not an election campaign for office. This is a war for the survival of a nation against a Nazi/Marxist enemy that has taken the hill and now occupies all the apparatus of power in this Gov't. Do you see the difference? Trump and DeSantis do.

Understand, we cannot win the election in 2024. The Dems control the elections and the ballot rigging will be even more thorough than in the last 3 election cycles. Have we learned nothing from 2020 and the 2022 Kari Lake "loss" in Arizona? They control the elections and the courts are AWOL. The problem the NWO Globalists have is the Constitutional Republican structure of the United States. This is not a top-down autocratic gov't. Per the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution, ALL POWER resides with the States and the people thereof. The Fed Gov't only has such power as is specifically delegated in the Constitution to the Fed Gov't by the States WITH THE CONSENT OF THE PEOPLE. If the States close ranks behind the leadership of DeSantis and Trump, the Neo-con Globalist Nazis will lose their control and will be routed from the City on the Hill they now occupy against the American people.

We must stand united and gird our loins for battle.

I could be wrong but I don't think DeSantis had any intention of running for POTUS. I think he may have just been using this opportunity to build national recognition and standing. Intentionally or otherwise, he has established himself as the Nation's Governor and is in the position of leading the liberty states and governors against the Marxist Feds. He has already done this with the FL bill banning a Gov't controlled CBDC from FL... AND calling on other states to follow FL's lead.

BTW, we should realize this is EXTREMELY significant. The CBDC is *key* to the Bolsheviks' plan to impose TOTAL surveillance state control on all Americans. With that control, not one penny can be spent without their approval and such control can be used to completely control what we do and say. If they don't like what you are doing, they simply "turn off" all your money so you have zero access! The CBDC is their key lynch pin.....that and getting rid of the First and Second Amendment freedoms. They have done a pretty good job of negating the First Amendment rights. The only other thing standing in their way is the Second Amendment and the American people....and all their guns. Thank God there is A governor that is intentionally taking this fight "head-on".

I agree, BFM. DeSantis’ polling numbers have been going down in the past 3 months. DJT’s majority will be a daunting task to overcome. DeSantis is not as well-known in the rest of the country.

"Next DeSantis explained that China is the biggest threat to American interests, not Russia:"

Yet clearly Trump and Russia were the biggest threat to the WEF agenda. Trump had China dancing to his tune, and the USA energy independent.

Trump didn’t know enough virology to be able to single-handedly defeat Fauci, Birx, the CCP, the Democrats, Big-Pharma, FBI corruption, The Lancet, and the CDC. Especially true while he was fighting two impeachments. and the entire media and deep state, and numerous other lawsuits. But his gut instinct to shut the border was spot on. His instinct that those who spoke of HCQ were right was accurate and brave. His withdrawal of funds from the culpable WHO was better than any other western leader.Also he advocated States Rights, and did not advocate forced injections. Trump did over trust, yet he was desperate to keep his global economic success going, and was watching it being destroyed.

The US GEBs (working closely with the European GEBs, - Greedy Evil Bastards) appear to be maniacally desperate to harm Russia, precisely perhaps because Putin won’t play their One World GOVERNMENT games. And Trump was a beacon to all nations to also not play their “Rule the World” games, and exercise strong self interest. Keeping Trump and Russia apart appears, in retrospect, to have been the deeper benefit of the “Russia Russia Russia” manufactured attack on Trump. The number one goal was to remove Trump and an independent nationalist USA, and two, aligned with that goal, keep the nationalist US and nationalist Soviet Union apart, punish them, and you crush Nationalism everywhere.

Trump’s economic success, and beacon call to rational Nationalism made his removal necessary, made Covid 19 ( almost certainly a man made manufactured crisis) necessary. And Trump’s success was massive and growing! He had China begging for talks they had at one point refused, India was fully aboard, Mexico was cooperating, Asia was cooperating, Eastern Europe was cooperating, anti "indiscriminate immigration" ideology was growing, bilateral and tri -lateral trade deals were rewriting global trade, with the number one economy and super power in the world, a strong USA. Canada was being dragged , against their will, to the trade table. Even North Korea was bowing to the Trump doctrine. It took Covid 19, two illegal Impeachment attempts, and “Russia Russia Russia” to stop Trump, and the world from getting on board his train of rational Nationalism.

Controlling a nation is so 20th century passe, just as corporations are global, ruling the world is so tantalizingly close. Breaking a few eggs to make the One World Omelette, now means destroying National Sovereign ideology. Trump's desperation to fight this, and an unfortunate trust in "science" led to the vaccines. His continued support is somewhat unfathomable. Yet I tend to support those they hate the most, and they hate and even fear Trump. Trump even had "Climate Change" correct,

Many speak of Putin, as they do of Trump, a compliment of them, along with a disclaimer of the "obvious" flaws. (Trump is rude and egotistical, Putin is a killer) When I watch Trump, yes, I understand the criticism at times, yet so often I have seen him deliver amazing speeches, and stay as cool as a cucumber in "doing the job" situations where he respectfully listens to folk in complicated emotional situations, that he opened up to public recording of. (Something for obvious reasons "Hiden Biden" never does) Trump was fearless of the press, taking them on daily. His "You are fake news" was classic directness. His indefatigable battle against the deep state was amazing, The details of how he fought the legal system, the left, the RINOS and turned Mexico's resistance to support on illegal immigration, was astounding and will full, finding solution after solution.

I do not know if Putin is a cold blooded killer, or if he is a "William the Conqueror" type killer, that actually built a nation in a very violent time. Were the "Oligarchs" Putin attacked, wealthy WEF backers? I do not know. I do know his speeches are sane, calm, informed, and mostly accurate with some political elements.

You say it right. The Federation is not the USSR/CCCP of old. And Putin has said, nobody wants to go back to all of that. And nice to see this comment.

The irony of history is that we beat the NAZIs and then become them, and actually exceeded them in becoming a Marxist hybrid ... largely Fascist but with Communist elements blended in. And so, the Old Ones who said that in winning the Second World World we actually lost? These were right! It took me a long, long time to figure how this came to be so. I still find this most astonishing! And it was the in fact nothing less than the overthrow of what was left of the Old American Order.

Why does everyone expect Putin to be a Boy Scout? Why do 'they' call Putin a killer? But not the Woke Five Eyes/EU/NATO Empire? Which has killed millions more of people in endless wars, color revolutions and so on? Maybe Putin should be ashamed of himself that he has so 'under-performed'?

There are always these assertions. But so seldom a proper weighing of things out.

Your thoughts provoked me to think that the only way for the Old (Traditional) American Order to be protected would have been to stay out of those European wars that became I and II.

And there is something amiss here because Trump knows how the Fake News works and there they were ... the Perfect Parrot Covid Chorus all chirping it out in unsettling unison. I cannot forgive him this. At the minimum there could have been halting resistance and a sowing of doubt.

I acknowledge the truth of Trump's accomplishment as per much of the commenting. And without doubt, a Trump 2020 win ... and we might not be arguing over the neat little NeoCon proxy war, the Ukraine Project. So yes, there is another side to the continental divide.

From the sources I’ve read, Trump was told about the planned lockdown. There was no way he could stop it - the bioweapon had been unleashed on us already. The only mitigating action he could take was to believe the vaccine would “flatten the curve”. He was told that; we were told that. If you remember, after he got the virus he got HCQ and monoclonal antibodies. He recommended HCQ and for the people not to be afraid. He made the antibodies free to everyone. The way the people reacted with such fear was much more than the DS expected. They piled on after that. That was not his doing. Everyone had a choice to do what they believed was the best for them.

Last week, I asked some stupid people how they KNEW their child's vax (chickenpox) made their bout with chickenpox less severe. The answer I got was, "science!". I told them to read Turtles All the Way Down.

What I don’t get is, how can you prove what “would have” happened? You can never know that. It’s pure faith.

Some "vaccine"! Safe ,effective and non functional.

No, at least not that I know of but I live in a different part of the country than them now so I only have frequent contact with one of the group. I think he knows but that conversation has become off limits. I am certain he has a vax injury. The condition was treated but I sense he just doesn't want to talk or think about it anymore.

Trek Travel is doing the same thing. They want their guests to “feel safe”. We were happy to give our money to another travel company.

Just curious- how do they “verify” your vaxx status? The little white cards are very very easy to duplicate and no way to check... my son “may or may not” have used a homemade card for employment with one very large corporation run by a mouse in Orlando. They had an independent company verify an uploaded photo of a vaxx card. Same card got him in and out of England in Jan 2022. Also both sons presented “cards” to attend the symphony in 2022- volunteers checked everyone’s “cards” to have entry.

Well, they could run an EKG and a stress test. If you fail, you're probably vaxxed and boosted.

My 92 yr old MIL's feet swelled up like loaves of bread and turned BLACK after her first jab. She couldn't feel her feet anymore. At first, they were afraid her feet would need to be amputated, but they actually got better with a bunch of different meds. She developed heart issues requiring meds and blood thinners. And guess what? The same EXACT thing happened after shot #2!! But, of course, all the many doctors are "baffled". Actually, we're amazed (but happy) she's still alive but she's declining for sure. Longevity runs in that side of the family, tho. She was perfectly healthy and active prior to the jabs. Other fam members are popping up with various health problems Luke seizures, heart problems, kidney problems and non-healing surgical wounds. All of these are attributed to "getting older", like "getting older" is a now disease itself. 🙄 We are the only non-jabbed and we've been totally ostracized, and mocked for the last 2+ yrs and our health has actually improved in the last 2 yrs. Just "baffling"...

We took a Viking cruise in France years ago. It was pure awesome. I really hate how these places are so insane now. You can't fly, go on a cruise, or even return to the USA without a Death Jab. Or putting up with pilots and drivers that could stroke out at any moment.

At this point I'm content with trips around Florida. From Daytona it's 7 hours to Pensacola or 7 hours to Key West... so much to do in between.

You can definitely fly overseas and return to US with no jab if you’re a U.S. citizen. And hopefully for everyone come May.

So the jab requirement is for visitors. Thanks for the correction.

Yup for non citizens.

Unless you intend to take up citizenship here illegally and make the border crossing with cartel backed coyotes. Then you don’t need the vax.

Yep. Just dragged heavy suitcases through 8 miles of corridors in Miami airport yesterday to complete customs rigmarole.

Consider giving your business to a travel company that isn’t discriminating against the unvaxxed. The upside is that the companies that keep pushing the vax narrative will eventually go out of business. Let’s face it, their clientele will be dwindling as they die off from the vax and boosters or become so unhealthy and injured that they can no longer travel.

Expand full comment

Yes. Vote with your wallet. Screw the vaxx mandaters.

Expand full comment

Not a lawyer, but my understanding when the employer mandate actions were launching was they can make any corporate policy they like. That said, if they have a policy that harms people, especially employees, they are also legally liable where Beijing Biden and "Rochie" of CDC are not.

Expand full comment

I hate that argument though. They CAN’T just make any policy they want and this idea needs pushback. They can’t require every female employee or customer to have sex with the boss for “health reasons.” They can’t ban people who have a lowered immune system function because they might catch and transmit disease more easily. Which they have as much proof of as for the jabs’ effectiveness. It’s just that vaccines have become a sacred cow and too many people assume that it is reasonable to require them, even in the absence of any evidence that they do what they are supposed to do (see flu shots).

Your last sentence explains it all. Vaccines have become the sacred (cash) cow that NO ONE can speak against. That makes you as bad as a racist or semite, in their eyes. I'm surprised they have coined a better derogatory word than "anti-vaxxer".

Seriously, why would you want to travel with people who might suddenly and unexpectedly keel over?!

Just the fact that they require their employees to be jabbed is enough for me.

Wow, you're right, that's a terrible web design. I would at least expect to be met with a pic of a huge cruise ship sailing into a beautiful fjord or some attractive scenery. And there's no doubt about how they feel about the vax AND testing! 😕

Expand full comment

My neighbors went on, I believe, a Viking cruise. They had to be jabbed to get on board and yet they were tested daily. More than half the boat tested positive and they left all of them at a port and sent them to a hotel. Believe it or not, the very next day, everyone who was kicked off tested negative! Imagine that! However, they were not allowed back on the boat and yet the cruise stopped testing the remaining passengers. I felt bad that my neighbors could not continue their trip, but they're also a big proponent of the jab. So....

Expand full comment

So they kicked them off and just left them at some random port? That's nuts! 😡

Why would anyone want to be around the jabbed? Just saying that I doubt there would be much common ground in conversation.

Expand full comment

I wouldn't give my money to a company like that. With jabbed being more likely to get ill (from anything/everything now due to their diminished immune systems), I have no desire to fraternize with a group of jabbed folks, especially in a confined, isolated space such as a cruise ship.

That is probably EXACTLY what the WEF wants. Eliminate ‘frivolous’ travel for the plebeians - especially airlines that will be shut down because vaxxed pilots will die or be grounded- while the global elite gets to do whatever they please and fly around to all of their worldwide mansions in their private jets with UNvaxxed pilots. Not sure I agree with that happening. I don’t want to be one of their slaves.

Yes, the ultimate goal for the ones left after the great culling is 15 min cities with constant AI surveillance and a social credit system. These things are not conspiracy theories. Their plans have been documented time and time again, online (Rockefeller Foundation Lock Step 2010 , et.al) and books, like Klaus' Covid19: The Great Reset.

All those hollyweird types kicking off from Jab deaths... Before covidmania, I don't recall all these specific and graphic death details like dying from a 'torn aorta” or “spontaneous brain hemorrhage.” It's really pretty creepy. Had an argument with a family member about how long the Jab can stay around in your system before it's 'gone'. He though it was just weeks. Seems you can have problems even a year after your shots.

I have a hard time attributing ALL of these to the jab. Those folks live unhealthy lifestyles with a lot of stress (real or imagined). And 60+ is old if you're not taking care of yourself. Could easily be we're just hearing about screenwriters and producers and folks we'd never otherwise hear about because we'll click the link.

Expand full comment

Nope, that's how it works now. They got to claim every death was due to Covid, so now we get to claim every death is from the Jab.

Expand full comment

Sad to say my conversations with those who have both been jabbed AND had the cvd infection and now have trending medical issues are saying their current problems are infection sequelae rather than jab side effects. So I’m concerned that vaccine harms will be blamed on the virus and the remedy will be harsher restrictions and increased mandates.

Like 'long covid'. Oh, it's not your 4 jab shots?

No no, it's not those shots. Long covid.

Hmm.

it's all the death vax UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE

Expand full comment

I don't think anyone is attributing ALL of these to the jab. But it's important to keep the possibility of it being the jab top-of-mind.

Expand full comment

Yeah, at these ages it could be anything but certainly the jab could’ve hastened things. But we’ll never know because no one will actually investigate.

Expand full comment

It’s hard because anyone over 50 who dies unexpectedly will be assumed to be old and about to die anyway. And maybe years of bad living or genetics did cause their death? But I also know these shots had to have at least contributed. They can’t be deadly to a 20yo but not a 70yo. It is likely BOTH. My 71yo bro in law fully jabbed and boosted just died with 4 blocked arteries and kidney failure. Because he was a T1 diabetic most of his life, no one is questioning all those shots he took. I’m sure this is very common.

"The case builds on the principle that employers shouldn’t be able to mandate medical procedures that aren’t specifically related to the job."

My concern is my daughter's job is Occupational Therapy, and historically (hysterically), those employers all require flu shots... which are turning to mRNA tech. And they still have the CV-19 jab mandate on the books, although they're not enforcing boosters.

How do we get ALL medical procedure employer mandates banned everywhere??

How about refusing to comply? An independent contractor should be independent. If enough people refuse the employers will need to bend. Employers need employees.

Jeff you are so right. Every one assumed the fed fight was over. We just were allowed to travel again late February. Well after the passing of the NDAA removing the requirement. Huge win but the fight for freedom is not over F4MF is still trying to do great things in the fight for freedom. Their mission is not over with this win. It only helps fuel their fire. I know you multiplied them once but if you did it again to celebrate this and give them momentum to keep fighting for freedom that would be awesome!
