Joe Biden claims credit for indescribably complicated prisoner swap; no death penalty for 9/11 mastermind; SpaceX rescues Boeing-stranded astronauts; NYC real estate, Moderna stock collapse; more.
Moving on? The media barely acknowledged it in the first place. I truly believe that Biden stepping down from the campaign was done a few days after the assassination attempt on Trump specifically so it could be memory-holed more quickly. How Trump handled it makes him look good, and the media will have none of that.
well we know the Trumps all said that the same forces (person/people) who went after his 2015-6 Campaign, his Administration and everyone close to him, then Lawfaring him for 9 years are the same ones behind the July assassination plot. Obama (enlisting Clinton, Biden, and Agency heads) certainly appears to be the main public figure of it all, and of course there are other less visible criminals who sway and control him and make him think he's significant. We shouldn't forget how Trump derailed the Jeb Bush presidency (he would have been the heir apparent even had 'Lary Rodhard Clinton won in 2016).... and earned the ire of McCains, Romneys, Cheneys, and others in the Republistocracy. These NeoCon Patricians despise his interloping even more than the Dems have and are Most Likely Colluding with Dems to take him out by whatever means required.
Certainly. Speaking of inside jobs, I'm not too worried that they reduced the "alleged 9/11 mastermind" sentence. See the masterful Richard Gage's ongoing analysis at https://substack.com/@richardgage911
Khalid Sheik Mohammed, that is not his real name, was not the 'Master Mind of 9/11'. If he even exists, he was likely a CIA operative
as Osama Bin Laden was. I sincerely doubt he was rotting away in prison all of this time. No outside conspirator could have arranged to have our entire defense apparatus being kept busy with war games, and have NORAD and all of our air defenses stand down. Only Israel with the cooperation of higher ups in the US government had the operational capability to pull off such an operation.
I think it is way bigger than obama, who was a useful, angry puppet. Look at those who show up at WEF to determine our fate. They have the redistributed wealth and the connections with the deep state who trained, equipped, and positioned crooks.
LEST we forget- possible cabinet appointees for djt include WEF's Young Global Leaders member Tulsi Gabbard. Also, Vivek's $50,000 from WEF toward college tuition.
For the record, I am very conservative. And, very concerned with these and other cabinet considerations.
Where do you live? What country? You have no clue. He brought Vance on precisely because he learned from Pence, Fauci, Wray, Barr, etc what a traitor really is.
Yeah, his Cabinet picks on his first go-round mostly stunk. But that can be overlooked on his standing as a rank amateur politician. VERY different world than his own, big business.
But this go-round if he doesn't do well on his minister choices he will simply be shoving his/our win off a very high cliff into deep water after dark. Or maybe using the Ship of State to sideswipe a long bridge because of that ship's being "not under proper command", and bringing that bridge down upon said Ship of State, effecting a full stop
WE THE PEOPLE have NO idea of the malicious, malevolent forces doing their 'most ut' TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY and grind us into the "dust of history". Plus...we do have the 'decay from within' in that the morality and social mores have become more and more pagan and despicable over the past 6 decades. "Without and within", we are indeed a NATION BESIEGED in need of our Creator God's MERCY and FORGIVENESS...but will WE THE PEOPLE ask for that mercy and forgiveness??
Fortunately, Trump is "wise" to their tricks and he has some 'inside help' going on that WE THE PEOPLE have no clue about. You do realize for many years Trump was a registered and faithful DEMONrat himself (until after 09/11)...then he registered "Independent" for a few years and finally--around 2005-2006 he registered Republican.
Interesting guy - and the only TRUE LEADER we have running for a Federal office! Most legislators start out 'honest' and get debauched very soon into their terms.
That's PRECISELY why I voted for Trump in 2016 and then, after seeing how he masterfully handled the POTUS position, I voted for him once again in 2020...and, God willing, will do so this year!
I should add, I have NEVER espoused to being MAGA or a Trump devotee--I voted on the person MOST qualified to honor our Divinely - inspired U S Constitution, who is a born leader and who doesn't support the USA being "the World's 'police'" by inciting or enlarging "world conflicts".
Then you would love 'moi' as well, J.C. - my surname is Zartman and I am Germanic 'influenced' through and through on BOTH SIDES of my 'family tree" (smile).
The Israelites went after other gods, and we know what happened to them. They are still in the battle for their lives thousands of years later. "Choose whom you will follow" has been the cry from Father God for all time. There is nothing new under the sun.
I know very little about the Masonic orders; I have had friends involved with Masonry--but they were very 'tight lipped' about its 'inner workings'. I believe Trump is a Mason--but doesn't flaunt that membership either! Secret stuff always 'bothers' me!! What do they have to "hide" anyway??
Dawn: I just started listening to Mr. Veith's dissertation on "The Secrets of Secret Societies" and it is JAMPACKED with very lucid, well documented (in both pagan and Holy Bible sources) information. I must 'pause' for awhile and continue listening to Mr. Veith--I plan on listening to more of his dissertations. He at one time was an ATHIEST AND EVOLUTIONIST follower (reminds me of Mr. C. S. Lewis' bio!!).
I'll get on that website you just linked and read up on "secret societies" which is just one of MANY controversial societal issues that Mr. Veith has vetted in his holistic research activities!
IDK much either but they talk about Solomon in their ceremonies. He wasn't a good king either.
Masons use their members to control and put them in positions of power to carry out what they need and to filter out those who can be corrupted. That is why there is a lodge in every city. That is how they control and protect the "brotherhood" by secrecy at the lowest level and they move up when they prove themselves getting higher positions. They do the same with the college kids in these secret clubs like the famous skull and bones. The hazing is necessary for them to go through as it makes them subservient to the club and fearful of consequences.
Secret clubs always left me "cold" - don't want to join any of them. I'm not a 'team player' but do appreciate an honest debate of different "trains of thought" with people who are critical thinkers and not "epithet spewers".
I certainly hope so, and it would not hurt us either to remember WHO our enemy truly is...From Ephesians 6 -
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is
More likely that he would have been next. Obama and crew 25’d Joe via Obama’s call to Joey on 2/21. The crew was at Pelosi, Schumer, Harris (consent) and likely the Clintons who had publicly just sworn to “do whatever it takes” to get Harris elected.
Voila on the same day a hasty letter of withdrawal “from Biden” on X was produced. Tellingly, Biden did not endorse Harris in it. That was a p.s. later.
I’ve read on the ever reliable internet about Vance being a deep state asset. Trump has been tricked before to choose traitors to the MAGA agenda. With Trump seeming to have a sure win particularly now with the failed assassination plot, having Vance, an alleged deep state player, as VP could be “plan b” of Trump elimination phase 3 or is it now phase 4 or 5?
If Vance was a deep state asset, they wouldn’t be going after him so furiously! They fear him almost as much as they do Trump. What would “they” do to undermine Vance? Spread rumors he’s a deep state asset, of course.
The deep state is onto plan B. They know Trump cannot be beat in November. The deep state now needs to get Trump/Vance elected. The attacks on Vance are a ploy; many Trump/Vance supporters will not suspect Vance is a deep state asset if they attack him. It’s twisted as most deep state maneuvers are. Just my guess …
Is he? So you’d prefer their pick Nicki Hailey? Cuz that was the plan. Give the nod to the next highest vote getter good ole Nicki. I’ll take my chances with JD, thanks.
Had Trump's brains been blown out as planned, I surmise that somehow DeSantis-Haley would have been his successor ticket scraped together at a frantic, panicked RNC
Nope. Florida Ron has made it very clear HE is dedicated to continuing his very effective cleanup of the State he is now pledged to serve and lead. He is a man of VERY high integrity. Keeps his commitments.
I believe he would be an excellent candidate a bi further down the road, after he is termed out n Florida. Let Trump "do bidniss" with the Deep State and swamprats (but I repeat myself here....) for the next four.. IF he can continue to dodge the "Oswald" lead.
For what it is worth, I make some very generalized assumptions about things. First, nobody goes down an escalator and gets up on the big debate stage, or survives what Trump has so for survived ... and survive it all by his little lonesome self. You and I? These folks attacking Trump? They would have had any of us for breakfast, lunch and dinner in about one flat Manhattan minute ... or less.
Trump probably learned the single most important thing in the real estate development business from his father, Fred. And that is, you are only as good as the people working for you. And Trump likes the people who work for him a whole lot more that the vacuous Manhattan social set. As to J. D. Vance, I suspect that he is maybe hated even more than Trump by the Radicals. And Vance appears to be no dummy, and maybe very, very sharp. Unfortunately, we are more the audience than not, which means that we will just have to wait to see how things play out.
As to the assassination attempt, who really knows what? And I am not going to pretend I know anything. All I see so far is a lot of jagged pieces which don't make a lick of sense and a lot of finger pointing. One can lose oneself in a well of deep speculation.
My last big guess here is that we can only expect amelioration. And if we don't hear the greatest economic crash in history of Mankind, that would be a major miracle.
@daverkb: great post. My short take on the assassination attempt based on what we "know" at this point is that they ("leadership") let it happen and set up the team on the ground for failure: denying the Trump detail adequate assets, fill in augmentation crew with minimal if at all training on how to protect a protectee, originally not have an SS counter sniper team at an open venue like that with all the vulnerabilities and adding it at the last minute (for planning purposes a week before is the last minute), no/poorly at best coordination of comms, no recordings of radio comms, SS not conducting the 0900 brief with the augmentation counter sniper teams, a "pac-man" drawn protected area, leaving the clearest vulnerability off of the plan, zero supervision of what you supposedly tasked to the "locals". The fed "bosses" completely side-stepping Congress during the hearings thusfar. This does not even take into account all the strange things that went on with the suspected shooter, Crooks. Everything that took place on that side of the venue (EGR building side), you couldn't have written a better Hollywierd "movie" with the way that all "happened".
Yeah, I try not to be a "conspiracy theorist", but the lack of accountability/transparency of this regime and these alphabet agencies can't help but lead one to not buying that this was not an inside job. Just too many "mistakes" for the world's supposedly "premiere" law enforcement/protection organizations.
It's just not plausible that his enemies would say: "Let's give him weak security & maybe someone will murder him."
If they wanted him dead - which IMO they did and do - they wouldn't hang around on the off-chance a 20-year-old would wander up one day and take a shot.
They set him up.
And they failed - but he needs MAXIMUM, LOYAL security now.
From the details I've been able to find, two FACTS stand out:
first, the shots HAD to have come from at least twodifferent rifles, one "open" the other suppressed/silenced. Multiple recordings of the shots confirm this, and leave open the possibility of a third unsuppressed rifle. The sound patterns of the eight shots are quite unambiguous.
Second, there WERE two bullet paths involved, thus at least two different shooters in at least two different locations.
One set definitevely originated from the position of the "lone assassin" on the roof of that unsecured building.... the one that was "too steeply pitched" to be usable.... that line of fire was descending.
One or more of the second set had a RISING trajectory, else it could not have done what those rounds did in the murder and injury of the three folks in the stands well above and, if memory serves, to Trump's right and behind him.
These being quite certain and uncontestable facts based on available evidence, there is no way this was an "Oswald" scenarlo. Interesting that in both cases (I was alive and watched both of these unravel) the ONE PERSON that could have provided sworn testimony to the "big picture"were both killed prior to any enquiry was possible. Case closed... as THEY would have us believe.
Then we had the Zapruder film, which has been proven since to be constructively altered to "protect the guilty". This time we have multiple video and sound recordings, hard to "jury rig" them all.
Given the multiple positions of fire and very different trajectory paths, we can surmise the steps that were/were not taken to secure some places and carefully "exempt" others, thus providing a thin veneer of "protection" efforts yet leaving a carefully cleared pathway toward their goal of One Dead Candidate.
We need to continue to thank God that their carelessness resulted in an epic fail and hope that HIS style of justice will be meted out.
Who by his own hand sheds innocent blood, by the hand of man SHALL his own blood be shed. That is God's justice.
As an aside, I think all assassinations/attempts are clown shows as everything cannot be controlled. But they rely on the success of the assassination and the resulting chaos to distract from and cover up all the anomalies. Since they missed, now they have a real problem.
Maybe I wasn't clear enough. By NOT doing what they should have been doing, they are enabling and creating a better and more deniable situation, had it gone the way they wanted it to go. Not having the 0900 briefing, having replacement SS support, no drone coverage, adding SS team at the last minute and the other items laid out above, helps their case in setting the condition to have THEIR patsy (Crooks) make the attempt. There is no way that punk did this on his own. There had to be help from the inside.
100% agree on the set up and the need for MAXIMUM LOYAL security.
1. The Blaze Media has a report that Crooks cellphone pinged a tower 7-8 times in DC where the FBI building known as FBI offices where they meet with confidential informants, etc. (I've been there when I worked for the US Courts Admin HQ next door.)
2. CNN contradicted long standing policy to live cover the Butler Trump rally.
3. The famous photo of the bullet in air was taken by the NYT at the super high shutter speed of 1/8000 of a second. Very unusual unless you're there to capture a pic of something going very, very fast.
The use of the term conspiracy theorist is a left wing birthed defecate to undermine the investigation, and discovery, of their sordid plots & plans. They consider their conspiracies successful when they can blame it on a "lone gunmen" or a "political operative" - like Vindman - and the sheeple buy the explanation*.
ya know.... that little escapade has often come to mind of late. Particularly whenever some wonk points back to some incident in the Second German War, or VieNam or Afghanistan, the Maine comes to my mind. That set a pattern and labelled it "OK to do this" back a century and a quarter now. Lather rinse repeat.
Yes, and I think that is part of the "what they did not do". They then use it as a sort of cover for what they wanted to have happen. Just like did with J6 on many levels. Incompetency, but willful negligence as well, to affect WHAT they wanted to have happen, have plausible deniability, and then just plead dumb (which they are good at, do it all the time, and get away with it (all the lies they told with the "dossier" and the fake impeachments, etc., etc.
Here’s what I don’t get, how did the snipers miss? The kid, ok, he could miss, but how did the other sniper miss? Snipers don’t miss do they? Or if there really wasn’t another sniper, why did they use this seemingly untrained kid?
I saw a video yesterday that showed something pass through Trump’s right breast pocket of his jacket. Could be fake of course but I saw one photo early on of a hole in his jacket.
I teach rifle marksmanship to a prtty high standard. There are SO many factors that ALL must be done to perfection. Of course, is range was not that exceptional, but sill not eveyone can do well at 150 yards. Once the basics then the fine pioints are learned, they must be practiced almost to fetish level to make them consistent and automatic. I doubt this kid has fired tens of thousands of rounds through the same rifle with any self-discipline.
I watched a man in his fifties, using an AR pattern rifle, put ten rounds in a one inch circle at four hundred yards range, and do it in thirty seconds. On his next go, one of his rounds was abou four inches away from the other nine.Still inside the top points ring, but hisgroup size had tripled. He had "called the shot" and knew it was off, which direction, and how far. Next course of fire, bac to a one inch group, same thirty seconds time.
They can, because they are human. There are a ton of variables that can lead to even a trained sniper to miss. The alleged shooter (Crooks) didn't miss, he hit the President in the head. The head turn saved his life (less than a quarter inch). Then the President did what he was likely trained to do in an active shooter situation and get down immediately, his SS team on the ground did what they were supposed to do and shielded him. The other five rounds seemed to be fired quickly (which leads to inaccuracy). Mike Adams from Natural News/Brighteon.com has a bunch of good analysis of the weapon, the weapon sights, and the audio breakdown of the shots. It seems to be leaning towards the first eight rounds were from where Crooks was found dead. We still don't know for sure.
Also, new footage released on Sunday from near the AGR building appears to indicate an officer fired his rifle (the 9th round), and that caused Crooks to pause, try to regroup, then he was taken out by the SS sniper.
Two great comments. You and Dave nailed it. I quit paying attention to all the chatter about the Butler event because it is just one big fog bank. What can be surmised, you and Dave pretty much described.
Yes, I've spent way too much time in speculation this year, but one scenario I envision is: they let Trump have it, then pull the rug out. War, currency devaluation, economic collapse, big infrastructure fails. It will be covid on steroids. Hope I am wrong.
A lot of my friends have gone down the Vance rabbit hole but I see that as a waste of time, it's a done deal now, especially since they are still going to vote for Trump, what choice do we have?
Since we cannot know with certainty because farmers never inform the cattle of their intentions aforehand, it could be anything. And it could be as easily that Trump is Mr. Fix-It and the VP choice might be a signal which affirms such.
What can be seen is that there is a roll back of Woke going on. This has been certain, at least to me, ever since Musk almost effortlessly bought Twitter. This trend now in motion is not expressly designed for 'our' benefit (you, me and us), but of necessity in order for the high orders of the ruling establishment (class) to retain control such as is necessary for the maintenance of continued power.
I think the first Trump presidency was beta-testing, probing the infrastructure for strengths as well as for weaknesses ... and an identification process of the lay of the land and its cast of characters.
Also, I noticed that whoever was behind Trump did NOT contest the Great Banana Republic Election of 2020, not with any determination whatsoever. In that sense, I think maybe that Sidney Powell and Lin Wood got played. And yet the mission got accomplished which was total exposure of the political rot, including election vote counting. And I think that the four years of President Cabbage was always in the game plan as preparation of ground. And after all, the ground is always prepared ahead of the planting. Show folks how bad things really are and get as many dummies on board with The Plan as possible.
I think that Trump will get in as Mr. Fix-It, a rebranding of the franchise requiring a total restructure (financial, economic, political and to a large extent, social and cultural). And it looks to me that the undertaking in this direction is well underway. But this is only my guess based upon perceived trends in motion. And one must allow that any serious derailment (like a McCackle presidency) of what is now trending could require a stark reassessment, even including Western Civilization in a catastrophic collapse (and right now, we are real close to lights out!).
So, this election is indeed pivotal. And everything is on the board for winner take all. High stakes. And if VP McCackle gets in, all bets are off. And most of the above is flawed and a total overhaul reassessment will be in order. However said, a big tip off is that Wall Street, a lot of it, is now for 'change we can believe in' and not the same old, same old slogan change.
Massive uncertainty about the future is pretty much baked into the cake these days, that's for sure. We are pretty much frozen from a planning any big expense at this point., we are keeping powder dry in case we need it to eat if it all hits the fan.
Uncertainty -- no doubt about that. Almost impossible to guess what comes next. And yet the tell tale thing I've been noticing over the past year or so is that the very best in the financial alternative community seem unable to say what is coming next other than comments on instability in markets, liquidity and so on. And so, what exactly is going to happen next is anybody guess. The only real agreement is that some kind a big monetary restructure has to happen, as big or bigger than Bretton Woods. Accordingly, the smart big money has been migrating from paper to hard assets, including the commodities sector, including gold and silver.
Whose is involved? All of "them?" It's an interesting conjecture ... and it is interesting not because the 'they' are necessarily acting in concert, in unison, and with a single mind, a single purpose. Instead, throw in the idea of circuit breakers, interventions, diversions and things just plum gone off the rails, and it all gets very wild. But then again, if one closes off the entire gamut of possibility, then one ends up with some absurd Master Mind and airplanes as the whole explanation of the 911 debacle. And such cannot be because everything is against it.
Bottom line: I am not buying anything I am being told because none of 'the news' makes a lick of sense. And you said it well. And better than I. And with fewer words. And God bless you! Because to read cogent thinking given to words is a positive joy. It makes my day!
Thanks. LOL. Bottom line... Not believing any of it either. In fact, I am not going to try to figure it out. It is manipulating and elevating Trump. I just wonder and don't get all crazy about it because there is nothing I can do.
I don't think that I will ever make sense out of it, but I would like to know what actually transpired.
It is a lot like the Las Vegas shootings. One could not make sense out of that either. But there were so many things wrong with the official 'narrative' and so many eyes on it that the Mockingbird Media finally memory holed the whole thing and one never heard anything more about it. Just went away. And Las Vegas was set up to be 'their' greatest gun grabbing pretext ever ... and failed.
I think that whatever it was at Butler, 'they' will just keep repeating the same things over and over again and forever flash The Perfect Picture. It will be The Perfect Picture which will be the representation of reality, real or not ... or in parts. (In the Empire of Lies, nothing is real. It's 1984 in 2024.)
You are a nice smart lady. Your family must be proud of you. Same as I am of my wife.
I ALWAYS appreciate your holistic, circumspect evaluation of "current and past events", daverkb! The more I ponder the supposed "clandestine activities" surrounding our country's governance--throughout the centuries--the more I KNOW it is the "Hand of the Great Physician" guiding WE THE PEOPLE through the "shoals" of our country's life span.
"And if we don't hear the greatest economic crash in history of Mankind, that would be a major miracle." it's baked into the cake. World government can't win until they break the back of the US economy, i.e. staggering ever increasing national dept, failing real estate (commercial and residential), clobbering the hegemony of the Petordollar, never ending wars..... a laundry list other economic catastrophes all this playing out in real time right before our eyes, all planned and executed by megalomaniacs. History repeating itself except the scope is bigger. Follow the money.
Later Jay
P.s. Think about this: if the FED did not approve of either of the 2 candidates in the forefront, they would not be there.
There may be some truth in this. But I try to remember that the FED is just branch office of the money franchise. Maybe the one of the handful of single most important front offices, but the real power and determinations are made at a much higher level.
I think that Globalism, One World Government as conceived by the people of my generation is already a smashed mirror. I think the multi-polar world is an established fact, not just some mirage or chimerical fool 'em again operation.
In this case, I think mistakes were made and mistakes are now trying to be rectified in the form of pushing forward a new multi-generation Super-Narrative. I think Milei is a visible example of the re-make plan. Will it work? I don't know. But we will see.
I also think C19/health terrorism, think bio-weapon, was a huge mistake in planning and the net effect is shattering of the old world system in which the West dominated. People don't talk about it. But I bet my boots that top key world leaders and their ruling elites have taken notice of the fraud, the injuries, the planned democide ... and tanking 'vaccine' sales are proof of a sort. But what do I know?
As you said, the failure of "vaccinating" the entire planet smashed the NWO mirror. BRICS arose in reaction to their efforts and, having failed, they now must consolidate their control of the Western territories under their domain and, especially in the US, they must subjugate the American people to secure their control. However, I don't think Americans are going to go willingly into that night. And I think they know this. In my mind (and what do I know?), they will necessarily have to resort to the iron fist to try and subjugate America. If so, this will lead to kinetic violence. The BRICS are just going to sit back, shaking their heads, and watch in disgust. (The wild card in my mind, however, is the CCP. They already have too many agents who have come across the border.)
All I have to go on is historical reading, and perceived patterns as they evolve, both over the decades and in near time. Over the decades, whoever has been and now is and/or remains in charge, have proven themselves to not be as smart as they thought themselves to be. Planning and reliance on a commercialized economic system (that being over and to the sacrifice of production based) as the chief mechanism of control to dominance ... this has been an utter bust. This modeling, buttressed by the whole 'fool 'em ideological spectrum of projections (UN, eco-terrorism, Agenda 21/30, DEI, private public, NGOs, etc.), this also has proven itself worse than stupid. And all of this program of orchestrating has one and only one discernible progeny, the spectacle of the rise of the failing Clown World West and its failing Clown World ruling class. The whole dang Collective West is one big cartoon show trying now to desperate reel itself in. And I in my wildest dreams twenty-four some years ago could not imagine anything as totally lunatic as what I am seeing these days!
As to the cattle, the preferred method is to just lead the cattle down another cow path with the promise of a yet still greener upper or lower pasture. This is where Milei and the new narrative multi-generational come in. It will be another fool 'em again thing complete with ameliorations, new fake freedoms, restoration of a new normal looking more like the old normal and with them hoping that we will kiss them on their royal behinds for their 'kindness' to us. They will again hold up some kind of new island of Manhattan, say that it is ours ... and then offer to buy it from us for $24.00 in trinkets.
Good points Jay. For those that dabble in eschatology, a world currency will be established, a one world government and ultimately one world leader, welcomed with open arms also. I'll leave the timing and disposition of the rapture class alone.
I think the "one world government" is now a smashed mirror as Dave put it. With the rise of the BRICS, the world is now a multi-polar world and there is no way to reverse that.
Yes, welcomed with open arms unfortunately just like the shot and many many other things leading down the wide path.
"“What will a man give in exchange for his soul?”—MATT. 16:26" I am not condemning cause I get it and it was scary times but it was a test; the Sovereign gave us free will.
"...And if we don't hear the greatest economic crash in history of Mankind, that would be a major miracle."
Yeah, I give that miracle about a 1% chance of happening. IMHO, the best I think I can hope for is for Trump to keep us out of any international wars. If he can do just that then he will have earned his angel wings. Domestically, I fully expect at some point America is in for some historic economic bad times. And given the breakdown of our social cohesion and the mass migration the Marxists have facilitated, I expect an unprecedented level of violence in this country. The two extreme alternatives I'm hoping against hope we avoid is total totalitarian submission versus civil war. Either of those developments will cause massive suffering.
I look at not just one or two things, but many things. Just look at cost/input pricing and ask one's self if the Collective West can compete against Russian cheap energy and China being Russian supplied. And if the geniuses in America think that they can cut Europe off from cheap energy a chief factor of production and create captive markets, they are merely planting the probable economic landmines of the future. Just let dollar hegemony collapse, including in Europe and see how fast Europe bolts to China and the so-called economic South. Just saying. Maybe for awhile, but longer term such plotting by government fails. Price will sooner or later be king and the chief determinate of the direction of future prosperity.
And look at the capital allocation structure of the West with it's inane central command economy (Green/Eco based) which can only be sustained by subsidies which cannot ultimately be sustained anymore than they were under the Soviet command economy. The recipe for failure is already written.
I read or heard something recently about the Collective West and it economic functioning being 'tje rip-off' society where everything is designed to extract the maximum that can be extracted whether in taxes, government licensing, products, etc. Just, for example, think about an Apple iPhone and what is in it ... and ask one's self if it can possibly be worth $800.00 to $1,000.00 new?
Well, here is another incarnation of 'the rip-off society'. You will even find out the biggest factor in the demise of Red Lobster, something I had wondered about.
I compare the above to something I listened about Russia which pointed out the reasonable cost of everything in Russia relative to wages. In the West, however, we are literally pricing ourselves out of life.
If by bozo your indoctrinated and mRNA infected brain means President Trump, then I will refer you to his great record as a business executive and President, accomplished in spite of the global marxists and deep state enemies of the USA and, or course, people* like you. I'm granting you a doctorate* in using ad hominems to make stupid statements! Doctorates* are given to people who spend their entire life in academia* accomplishing nothing because they cannot survive in the real world of merit.
None of the people who run for president have been president before (until now), thus lacking the credentials to be president. President Donald Trump for president, then!
I also think whatever happened in Las Vegas to Joe, cutting off his planned appearance had something to do with it. The week before they had all been proclaiming him “sharp as a tack”. Two unplanned occurrences. Tucker Carlson talked to Senator Mike Lee about what they think may have happened with coup of JRB.
Honestly, I think there is above a 50% chance that Biden has passed away or is so incapacitated that he can’t be in public anymore. They’re pulling out the last resort body doubles at this point.
I didn’t watch the “speech” after his return from Vegas, but hubby had it on. What caught my attention, going in and out of the living room, was the way “that” Joe talked with his hands! The “other” Joe never did that🤔
His eyes were very strange. Naomi Wolfe also noticed his hands were a purplish color? The speech itself could have easily been strung together from many of his previous videos. He never addressed WHY? It definitely seemed to be AI .
Valerie, agree with your assessment. Although I just watched an ABC News video of (supposed) Biden greeting the released political prisoners. If it’s not the real guy, he’s a very good actor. I wish we could’ve heard his comments on that, but his body movement was on par with what you’d expect from Pres. Cabbage.
The last speech given by him I thought was almost certainly a body double with AI voice over.
White House staff has explained he went on board to speak with the other 7 released prisoners and the crew of the airplane. They received no recognition otherwise. Stirring the boiling pot is not always good.
Could be true but I would prefer the information come from something more credible than White House staff who spent the last 4 years telling us how “Joe Biden” is sharp as a tack. 🤷♀️. I saw what I saw that is all.
I just watched that Maggie, and made the comment that if it’s not really him but a body double, the guy is just too good at acting. It appeared to be the old Joe shuffling around, most likely making nonsensical remarks, since we couldn’t hear them.
Kalamala 😂 good one. Her name is perfect for providing caricatures of her character. My latest favorite is Kakala.
I suspect LGB had a stroke or major fall in Vegas. He appeared to have heavy makeup on the left side of his face during his "speech" covering up a huge bump or bruise. Or did one of those Olympic "boxers" deck him?
Biden basically shook his fist in the face of God and double-dog-dared Him to do anything when he said he would drop out of the race "only if the Lord Almighty comes drown" and tells him to. I think the Lord Almighty afflicted him with hyper dementia.
BINGO! Although I continue to pray earnestly for our election to be free from fraud - there will be MASSIVE 'messing' with the election results from FOREIGN ENTITIES, OUR 'SNOOPS AGENCIES' AND THE D.N.C. What chance do we have with that "coalition" - ZIPPO - unless our Creator God is merciful and intervenes!!
“Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.”
I understand how that author felt.
Once we can set our frustration aside and understand what is going on in America we must unite under the flag.
Under the constitution.
Which is under God and indivisible.
We see what has gone on long enough and what we Americans must stand up for:
We must understand what our reasonable service to God is.
Our own constitution states our rights came from God:
There is a quote from Edwin J. Feulner, PhD that reads:
“The Declaration of Independence asserts that all men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. In other words, our rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are God-given, not government given.”
As for me and my family we believe that it is high time we come full circle back to the one who knew us before we were formed in our mothers womb.
To the One, Who gave us our rights and our life.
So we stand on God first, and become disciplined in His word.
We seek Him first in all things.
It is past time to be about His business.
We get close to Him so we can to shine light into the darkness.
I honestly believe the intelligence agencies are running rogue. Without impunity. Without concern. Without accountability. And they need to be stopped.
the media wants to normalize and mainstream violence against Anti-Progressives, whether political figures, churches, non-Public schoolers, any and all traditionalists are acceptable and expected targets of the triggered and underserved mentally unstable or passionate oppressed persons. Most people carry on like it was a normal occurrence and shrug it off and are unconcerned with the whole thing too. Even Vietnam War, 9-11, and CoVid-phobia policies were just inconveniences to the mass of morons whose main concerns are mental and physical comfort, being entertained, and not needing to be too strenuous in life's daily motions.
Attempted Mass shooting by lone, disturbed Rightwinger with assault rifle successfully thwarted by Secret Service Sniper at PA Trump rally. Small fragment caused part of Trump's ear to bleed as he clumsily fell fearfully behind podium after initial popping noises of several random shots fired into the crowd. Only 3 raucous pro-gun MAGA attendees were injured, one fatally. The convicted felon candidate Trump immediately took advantage of the situation claiming victimization by media and his opponents and called for his idolizing supporters to fight back insinuating a call to violence and political attacks on those who don't accept the Big Lies of Donald Trump and his controversial campaign. Once the alleged assailant was neutralized by the qualified professional security team it was immediately determined there was no further danger to the angered mass of Trump's acolytes who were being subjected to various mis-dis-and mal-information and incitement that is typically spouted during Trump's public spectacles.
This Russian prisoner swap story being a prime example. How many people does it personally affect, maybe a hundred in a country of 350 million? Yet it led all the newscasts.
And Biden asking “ why didn’t Trump accomplish this when HE was President??” Duh, those people were taken during YOUR administration moron cabbage brain 🙄 But I’m sure all the sycophants and useful idiots will be repeating that line 🙄🙄🙄
John 8:44 (NIV) - You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Very good and accurate article. Another FF tell Is shoes. Shoes all by themselves. Often Nikes. Happens all the time if you look. As we all know, when people are shot at or near explosions, the first thing they do is take off their shoes. Trump asked for his shoes 3X after the shots.
A polycrisis is a cluster of disparate crises and shocks that interact, entangle and mutually re-inforce one another.[1] It typically leads to more drastic effects than the sum of the parts.[2][3][4] The concept was coined in the 1990s but became popular in the 2020s to refer to the effects of the pandemic, war, inflation, climate change, energy shortages and democratic backsliding.
I don’t think so because it has to be something the Dems can pin on Trump. They can try a lot of things, but that’s not going to be it **I don’t think.**
BTW I did notice a big drop in the market in the last day, I believe (I try not to look at that too hard, as a one-day event is mostly meaningless). I usually just check it here and there to evaluate my 401(k).
Could be. I'm kind of holding my breath as to what it actually WILL be. The fact that there will be one is pretty much already a foregone conclusion, no?
I follow this guy as he is a contrarian and a sharp cookie. I am a scardie cat so I have been out of the market except bonds, Au and BC for a very long time; missing the run up.
The fact you had to be explained this wordplay should inform you that your nuance radar is broken. (There is no spite in rebranding Google to Goolag, simply sophisticated, biting humor.)
Yes! They are definitely trying to memory hole it. Charlie Kirk made a video talking about how abysmal Trump’s security STILL is (I guess he was at an event with Trump and witnessed it firsthand). We keep praying for his safety and strength and that of his family. Foil the plans of tue wicked, Lord!
President Trump is managing to stay in the news, albeit controversially, by his interview with the black journalists. He certainly keeps things entertaining. Could someone explain to me what it means to be "black?" I always thought it meant African-American. But I admit to being somewhat culturally inept.
Candace had a great video explaining that she was raised by her Indian mother and she obtained her Senate seat and was proclaimed the first Indian woman to be in the Senate. Leftists play the card that's most advantageous at the time hoping people won't remember the last card you played. I think that getting the information out there that she is pandering to people could make a difference. I may be overly optimistic.
The Sacramento Bee ran a story about Kamala being the first Indian American senator being sworn in. Google “first Indian woman in the US senate” and it’s one of the first stories to pop up.
I saw that video and it was excellent. The problem is with much of this 'reveal', including all of her past quotes and interviews that show her as a radical, will NOT be seen by the ones who need to see it. More and more ARE waking up to all of the lies and disinfo machine but not sure it's happening fast enough before the election.
There's a lot of empty minds out there who see her as the first female president. Never mind everything else. And they are looking forward to the next booster/mRNA cocktail for the next WEF/Ghate$ pandemic
Sadly, the sheeple who vote for her aren't smart enough to count cards. We are but I don't know if it's helpful. If it doesn't mater to them then it shouldn't matter to us. Trump needs to focus on something else.
Agree. The thing I like about him - he is his own man and not beholden to anyone is also the thing I can't stand - he doesn't listen to good advice and has no filter. Sometimes he would be much better served to just shut the heck up and let them destroy themselves.
Signs of personality and insane disorders to create insanity. Easily sucked in if you don't know what truth to stand on. They don't have any truth and will be "sucked" into their own delusions.
I agree, but any interview he grants will be race baiting. I say stick to the issues, what he has accomplished and what she has accomplished. The media will never give him a fair shake.
As far as I can see, Harris’ father is Pakistani, her mother is Indian. Her parents moved to Jamaica to manage the family plantation, which included slaveholding. In her earlier career, she said she was the first Indian in that position. No black or African American.
Spaniards brought African slaves to Jamaica, so… It is probable she is of African descent just like many Jamaicans and African Americans. Black means black lmao.
She is a descendant of Hamilton Brown (1776-1843). He was born in Ireland and was a plantation/slave owner in Jamaica. His son was also Hamilton Brown (1833-1918). Christiana “Miss Chrishy” Brown (1888-1951) was his daughter, who married Joseph Harris (1871-1939). They had a son, Oscar Joseph Brown Harris (1914-1976), who married Beryl Harris (1921-1960). They then had a son, Donald J Harris who is Kamala’s father. Christiana Brown was the daughter of a Jamaican mother and Irish father. From there until Kamala’s father married her mother, all of the ancestors were native to Jamaica. She has more Indian blood than she does Jamaican or Irish.
Nobody is white. Compare yourself to a sheet of paper. That's white. We are not white. We all have color. Skin color is determined by the amount and type of melanin in the skin. We ALL have melanin. We are all just different shades of melanin. "Blacks" do not own melanin as much as they like to claim. So when it comes to skin color, we are all the same - just different shades.
I have to add, we are too often so superficial in our thinking. We use the term "white" or "black" as a convenient linguistic convention to differentiate people. But we are intellectual lazy slobs when we actually believe that these terms are literal! I'll give another example. What comes to mind when you hear the term "Israel"? There is a 20th century political state called Israel. Also there is a collection of affiliated tribes from 4,000 years ago collectively called Israel. Then there are the people of Jesus' day referred to as Judah which we still refer to as Israel even though they are mainly composed of people from the tribe of Judah. Are these all the same? We treat them as such because we label them as all Israel and as a result of intellectual laziness, we literally believe they are the same. My purpose is not to start a theological debate. My only purpose here is to point out how intellectually lazy we all are in our employment of language and "truth". Reality, more often than not, is something other than the lazy way we think and talk. I'll give one more example. We STILL use the word "vaccine" to refer to a murder weapon of mass destruction that never fit the scientific definition of a vaccine. Why? Because the term "vaccine" legitimatizes the bio-weapon and thus legitimatizes the mass murder going on around us.
Thank you! I did not think to cover that in my earlier comment. "Races" is another one of those oxy-moron phrases. I guess I need to make a list. The intellectual sloppiness of thinking is appalling. THERE IS ONLY ONE HUMAN RACE just as there is only one God. We are many cultures and many shades of melanin. Nobody is white.
I had someone come to my door in 2020. He said they didn’t receive it. He was a young man and I witnessed his light bulb turn on when I explained to him why I am in the “other” category. His whole body language changed and he said, “you’re right”.
The fact that no one can provide a specific definition for what makes one person “black” and another “white”, besides saying vague things like “you just know” or giving archetypal examples instead of a set of immutable characteristics that we can base that definition on, is very telling. No one can tell me where the “black” skin tones on the foundation color swatches begins and where the “white” begins. Not to mention Asian and Hispanic. Also lumping in Indians because they’re on the same continent with the Chinese makes no sense. They are as unalike in many ways as so-called “white” people are compared to the Chinese, Japanese, and other East Asians. All of these attempts to categorize people and make them fit into boxes that clearly make no objective sense is just a failed simplification anthropologists tried to make that we’d be better served to jettison.
Yes! We are all one race - the human race. I won’t give them an inch on their terminology anymore.
Ironically, while they have humans all worked up fabricating and focusing on minor superficial differences they are working hard to destroy the human race and replace (what is left) with “transhumanism.” Satan will Satan.
Reminds me of that childen's Christian song, "Jesus Loves the Little Children"....."all the children of the world....black and yellow, red and white, they are precious in His sight...Jesus loves the little children of the world." (and we are ALL 'little children' in His sight).
So, years ago I had a position as a Russian language teacher, paid by a federal grant for magnet schools in inner cities. The premise was that providing unique educational offerings (like computer science - this was in late 1980's, Russian language, science labs) in these schools would attract white suburbanite students to these inner city locations. In order to "prove" this concept was working, when it came time to send in the grant reports, students were placed in the category of "white" if they had at least one white person in their bloodline. So, by that measure of our own federal government, Harris and Obama, had they attended this school, were white kids. There's the singular human race. PERIOD. Labels are a tool of Marxism to cause division.
Being Black is anything you want it to mean. I am white by day, but at night I am black and you can't see me.
My father was white, born of a white American female married to a white English father. My father was born in Cape Town, South Africa which makes my father African by birth (even though he was almost immediately registered with the consulate as being American). I am white and American born. But since my father is also African, that makes me an Afro-American. And since I am Afro-American, I must be black. And I could check that box on the government's paper. And guess what? I also pass for white all the time.
This is a bit of sarcasm. But there is some truth to it. After all, everything and anything these days can be what you decide it to be. As Humpty-Dumpty said, "Words are what I say they mean."
A couple of decades ago, we had a preacher and his family that were from South Africa. They all got their American citizenship’s the right way. When his kids went to apply for African-American scholarships, they were denied outright. Yes, they were white… Yes, they were South African. Make it make sense…
Ha! My dad born in Cape Town in 1920, if he were alive, would be shocked to find out that he was Afro-American, which strictly speaking ... he was! There was in dad's formative years and young adulthood, black and white and people did know their ethnic origins of which they took family pride in. BUT ... WE WERE AMERICANS back then. And what are we now?
Darn… I only have British, German, Swedish and a smattering of other north European and Iceland… my adopted mom was 1/4 Cherokee… Maybe I can identify is American Indian 🤔🤔🤔😇
There can be no clarification because the definition changes on an as needed basis. It’s like Calvinball or the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland.
POC: any person with dark hair and brown eyes who votes Democrat. Except for blue-eyed Jorge Ramos whose politics, accent, and suntan put him in POC territory.
It doesn’t mean anything. It’s an arbitrary distinction partly based on skin color and partly on physical characteristics and heritage/ancestry. But no one can provide a precise definition of what “black” is (or any other “race” for that matter). It’s all nebulous, “you just know” kind of stuff. There is no specific skin color range that corresponds with “black” only and that doesn’t overlap into anything else, and the so-called defining physical characteristics are imprecisely described and cannot be distinguished from those of another “race” in any quantifiable manner.
Since the media is controlled by the intelligence services, and the intelligence services tried to kill him, I’m not surprised they don’t want to talk about it.
Buried from the get go. I'm surprised the media didn't cut all the live feeds and claim technical errors and never let the footage out and never say a word. Of course, people with phones had footage but they could've claimed it was deep fake or just ignore.
Why did CNN, ABC, NBC, Etc attend? They have never covered a Trump rally this year. How did the AP/Rueters photographer get a picture of the bullet flying past his head? No photographer has his shutter speed set at over 800ft per second, period. They were ALL there to get the "pink mist" shot.
Of course, but didn't you know that was going to happen? You didn't think the Dems were just going to lie down and take it, did you, especially since so many people asserted that "DT just won the election!!" so breathlessly.....
Yes. I have to look for it on Twitter. A handful of people are digging and posting but haven't seen much in the way of new information other than the video shared by one of the shooting victims that shows someone running on the roof while Trump is speaking. A few claim it shows him being taken out while Trump is still speaking, but it's super grainy and not sure as it's so fuzzy. George Webb has a whole bunch of stuff he is looking into but most of it is behind a paywall and not sure it he is trustworthy or not.
I spoke to a dentist yesterday who used to work at one of the main VA hospitals. He left the VA when they mandated the jabs along with many others. He said his family will never take another vaccine. I was talking to him about graphene in the dental anesthetic. I pointed out what another dentist found here https://www.fargodentist.net/holistic-dentistry/anesthetic/. He wasn't aware of this, but he seemed like the type of person who would look into it. He took the time to look at article. We talked about a few things and he he's not clueless which was nice to see. He said he comes to Substack and knows another dentist here. It's good to see some in the medical field waking up to it.
There are honest and critical thinkers among doctors! When we lived in Ft Lauderdale, my acupuncturist was a young woman trained in Jacksonville and she said her gynecologist recommended AGAINST the HPV shot because there are 90+ different types of HPV virus and the vaccine supposedly works only against four or five but not the most common ones … So. Honest OB/gyn. Nice.
Personally, I think women get cancer from the pesticides on tampons, not some mystery virus.
Supposedly RSV is only for babies anyhow, not for older people, I wouldn't trust any of it, and like the commentor below, I won't let another needle puncture my skin except annual TB test as I am a nurse.
No one knew the long-term side effects of the MMR vaccine either. Walk amongst any older cemetery in the nation and note the alarmingly five percentage of of young people interned. There's a reason they almost disappear in the mid 60s. The vaccines were not combined until early 70s but the same dynamic was in place.
You're one of those people that doesn't play with house money when it's laying on the table, free to use. Pro tip…..
ALWAYS PLAY WITH HOUSE MONEY IF THE OPPORTUNITY ARISES.
Empty New York real estate will be converted into taxpayer funded free housing for illegals. Many hotel owners are already making fortunes from it, worth looking into the list. NYC is spending billions on 200,000 illegals. The NYPD is overwhelmed by all the criminal gang activity and it’s getting worse by the day. The Biden regime is turning every “Progressive” sanctuary city into a communist utopia favela.
Maybe, but does anybody believe that somebody bought a building for 332million without including the land? I don't know if the NYT article states as much but come on. They sold the land for 285m in 2019. So most of the 332 was recovered then.
The article said the rent on the land was more than the total rents currently being taken in from the low capacity. Apparently that’s a thing in NYC — sort of like trailer parks in Kansas. You own the “house” but not the land. Stupid imo for the homeowner. Great for the land owner.
Owned my ''mobile home'' but not the lot it was on. Paid mortgage and rent!
Still it appreciated so much in value that I had equity of $18K on a '70s double wide, after living in it for 5 years. It's called ''affordable housing'' in CA...
I don't understand. When you buy commercial real estate in NYC, don't you own the land your building is on?
I recently read about a popular diner closing in Queens, with the owner saying that although he owned the building, he didn't own the land, and something or other...and he decided to leave.
In simple terms, it is called ground rent. NEVER agree to buy a building in which you have to pay ground rent. You only own the structure in that scenario.
We and all the farmers around us here in commiefornia do the same. And it goes up depending on the crop - listed as “improvements”. Makes it very difficult financially. Once property taxes were legalized private ownership went out the window. Truly awful. So much so wrong with the government overreach.
In commercial areas, the cost of everything is so high because elitist investors own the land which you rent from them at exorbitant prices. They love their passive income. You will own nothing and you will be happy - sound familiar? This system makes the wealthy very wealthy and makes life exorbitantly expensive for the peons and surfs. It's like this in all cities and it's such a rip-off. It's worse than a time-share. As an example, hair salons are so expensive because of the rent - in an small city in a not so good part of town and in a not so well maintained building, we know of a salon where the rent is $5,000 a month. So just to break even, the owner has to clear $5,000 each month and that doesn't include other expenses.
AND in my city, as the older strip centers start to look ratty, the owners plead hardship to the city council and get them to pass CID's - a 1% sales tax on all purchases made in the center, where the money goes into a fund to fix up the property. And yet the city keeps incentivizing developments with EVEN MORE retail. It's hard to find places that don't have the added tax at this point. This is an issue state-wide.
A handful of our city council reps are starting to push back on this, but developers are BIG campaign contributors, and campaigns are expensive. Too few people donate - have friends running at all levels - local, state and even for congress, who are trying to not take PAC or special interest money but they are at a huge disadvantage to those who are flush with cash.
This isn't completely unheard of in other areas. Fifty years ago my first husband and I bought a house situated on a private lake. Beautiful lake, tucked away in NE Texas. Anyway, we were admonished that we only had a 99-year lease on the land, though we could/would own the home. I don't know if that's still the case, but I can tell you it was fairly obvious that the purpose was to exclude "undesirable" buyers. I'll leave it to you to determine who was considered "undesirable" in NE Texas in the 1970's.
Rural people here will buy a cheap parcel of rural real estate and then put a mobile home on it. They are low income but they are still self-supporting.
There is downtown building in my tiny MO town with that problem. The owners cannot afford to renovate the building because their land lease is about to expire and the landowner won't sell. (Maybe a deal cut a century ago by a shyster NYer.)
That's a lot easier said than done, unless they stop caring about things like "bathrooms" and such. Converting commercial buildings to residential takes a LOT of work, at least if you have to be up to code.
I wonder if The Big Guy is getting his 10% of the criminal gang revenue. Or has it shifted, like campaign donations, to The Little Lady. Oh wait...now I know how TLL raised so much so quickly.
I was thinking the same thing when I saw that space. Locally, we have motels loaded with them. I wonder what will happen when football season opens? Hmmmmm?
Its like selling tires for a 1965 Rolls Royce at $50K and throwing in the car for free. Its a workaround but instead saying the Owner pulled a fast one they instead make it a hardship story. Look out for an increase in taxes...
Ding ding ding 🛎🛎🛎… osama died of kidney disease having been on dialysis for years according to published obituaries before 9/11… and isn’t it curious that Mohamed is cited as the mastermind of 9/11…. How exactly would he have masterminded the strategic air command (SAC) training exercise that specifically involved jets hitting the twin towers at the very moment the actual towers are being detonated… who was in charge of that exercise?…. Dick Cheney….
LAZY Media can't get an updated photo, or look into the connection with the prisoner swap (Butt-kissing the Europee-uns?) to drop the death penalty for the "Masterminds of 9-11"...like that would ever be carried out in legal fashion anyway...only Epstein and Vince Foster types get the death sentence from Deep State.
“Where did the Towers go?” By Dr Judy Woods ~ This book contains physical evidence, not theories or speculation, but physical evidence that is overwhelming and conclusive as to what happened. But for the record, I do not believe that our government is responsible for executing the events of 9/11/01; nor do I believe that our government is not responsible for executing the events of 9/11/01.
This is not a case of belief. “This is a crime that should be solved by a forensic study of the evidence.” Before it can be determined who did it, it must first be determined what was done and how it was done.
Yes. That’s it. I have the link saved. I was blown away by the evidence. It’s a frightening thought this kind of weapon is in the hands of those who used it to kill and destroy first. We cannot trust this technology at all. I certainly don’t know the truth of who and why. Will we ever?
When I looked at that first picture of the Towers disintegrating, I had to ask myself if I have ever seen a demolition of a building with that effect. No... impossible. My first thought was of a small nuclear bomb at the base of the buildings producing that. But apparently, the base and the infrastructure underneath the buildings were relatively undisturbed. Secondly, while there was much evidence of "burning", there was NO EVIDENCE of heat connected with a lot of the "burning". What?! Apparently, objects like ceramic toilets and marble fascia on nearby buildings were completely vaporized into non-existence but paper objects were not burned at all. (I think physics might have a clue about this.) Furthermore, the sheer mass of the buildings simply vanished into thin air. What was left on the ground after the event could not even begin to equate to the mass of these buildings.
"After eliminating all plausible explanations, whatever remains, however implausible, is the truth." As far as I can tell, nothing plausible explains how this happened. The implausible explanation is that a "novel", unknown energy source that burns without producing heat was used to destroy the buildings. The rabbit trail leads to something called The Hutchison Effect which has always been disregarded as a "paranormal" phenomenon which is simply a scientific term for ridiculing something that can't be explained by the approved scientific paradigm. Among other things, the HE causes catastrophic fracture of metals. Now stay with me. This leads back to Nikola Tesla and his experiments. I don't understand any of this but apparently this rabbit trail also leads back to a part of quantum field theory called the Casimir Effect which has been described as "a force from nothing."
Now Nikola Tesla died in 1943 and upon his death all of his research was seized by the USG and has not seen the light of day since. Who knows what these idiot Gov't researchers have done with it? Nothing would surprise me anymore.
I can’t stop thinking about what I read and saw in the pictures. The antenna mast. Into dust. De-materialized into the air as it still stood in place. People there reported humans disappearing as they ran.
And who was sent in to evaluate the Tesla research for the USG? None other than Trumps Uncle John!
"Three weeks after the Serbian-American inventor’s death, an electrical engineer from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was tasked with evaluating his papers to determine whether they contained “any ideas of significant value.” According to the declassified files, Dr. John G. Trump reported that his analysis showed Tesla’s efforts to be “primarily of a speculative, philosophical and promotional character” and said the papers did “not include new sound, workable principles or methods for realizing such results.” https://www.history.com/news/nikola-tesla-files-declassified-fbi
The loss of revenue from commercial real estate will hit homeowners.
Wait for it...it is coming to your city.
In Pittsburgh, commercial buildings were able to get refunds on their tax assessments because of vacancy. So the Pittsburgh School District had to refund millions of $$$.
Next stop...coming after the homeowners.
Now the school district wants a reassessment of home values to make up the deficit.
Give it 3, 2, 1....and residential real estate crashes too. Austin is a harbinger of things to come for many areas. How will municipal governments cope? (Semi sarcastic)
68% of our property tax $ go to the school district. They just completed a $68 MILLION 'upgrade' to one of the high schools, have money to blow on DEI ('belonging') consultants, and 15 more superintendents in the last decade despite enrollment being flat. I could go on and on. And yet. constant handwringing over the 'lack of funding'.
In the last few years I have noticed - drive through any small town, especially those that are dying a slow death. Aging buildings, boarded up properties...but the government buildings are all shiny, new and well maintained. Gov sucks the life out of all it touches.
Boy, I’ll second that! In Joplin, all the nice, new, commercial construction projects are govt buildings. I can’t remember the last business that put in a new building.
If you are in Joplin do you know/are you voting for Chris Wright for gov? He's from there, really like him and think he is the only honest gov candidate on the ballot. Been knocking doors for him in the KC area.
Talked to him Monday, says he knows he is the dark horse in all this but that at this point he has done all he can and it's up to God now. I think he has practically lived in his car the past 6 months, MO is a big state!! As I am talking to voters at the doors, I am telling them all the big 3 do is bash each other - Chris is actually talking about the issues. I have a giant stack of postcards I've gotten in the mail - every one of them a negative bash your opponent message. Every one of those candidates lost my vote.
Yes - our town has 3 hospitals and all 3 have had expansion and update projects in the last 3 years. Suppose some of that is demographics, but still, makes me think they are flush with all that sweet sweet covid money.
Home prices across the country are 7-8 times annual earnings versus a 3x historic multiple. It's simply not sustainable. Reversion to mean is inevitable, just the timing is questionable. Check out the links I posted. Both are very interesting.
My experience in real estate is that somehow smart people become stupid when they join NAR (National Assn Relators) And keep in mind that the NAR narrative only represents existing housing. In the Boise area, for eg, Toll Brothers was recently offering up to $75k in incentives to purchase some of their homes. Those incentives are not showing up in the appraisal values (which is another simmering problem that will eventually hit the real estate market). Builders don't offer incentives in booming markets.
Stay tuned for the FOMO moment when all of a sudden home owners/boomers with equity realize that they need to sell NOW, before everyone else does. Give that panic a year of two, then it might be time to buy.
Depends on the market. Prices definitely accelerated here, but there are still reasonably priced homes to be had if you are patient, not looking for all the bells and whistles, like walk in closets, master suites, etc. Biggest problem is competing with investors offering 'cash', no inspection, no appraisal. They've been 25% of the sales the last 3 years. What happens if they go belly up due to no more cheap money and all those homes get dumped on the market?
There is a company called True Hold who is buying a lot of airtime on local radio, offering to buy your house, take over maintenance, taxes and insurance, and rent your home back to you. Seems like a house of cards and sketchy as heck.
Nations around the world are tired of the economic terrorism that the US does to countries...sanctions galore...kicking Russia out of the SWIFT system.
We are going to have bigger problems than just the price of houses.
Sort of - but mostly because of supply/demand. There are a LOT of people coming in to Texas (and especially Austin) as their companies move here. So there's a shortage of affordable housing and prices have shot up for homes - 3-4x what they were back in 2019.
Same thing happening around Raleigh. Our house has nearly doubled in price in less than 3 years. New homes, smaller, less land, going up for twice what we paid for our house 20 years ago. It is insane and I don't know how anyone is affording it because it ain't like salaries have doubled. We lived in CA over 20 years ago and it feels like the CA real estate market has moved to Raleigh. I hate it. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to move or I'd get the heck out.
My friend/neighbor moved up in 2020 to a bigger house to accommodate her mom and grandkids who stay over a lot. The single guy who bought their house has it back on the market. Only update/upgrade he did was added a backyard fence. (she went through it on an open house day) Asking $90K more than he bought it for in 2020! So not doubled, but still....has had 2 pending sales fall through though, so suspect a price drop may be coming.
Well and between materials costs, labor shortage, and massive over-regulation, there are few single family homes being developed, especially those in the 'affordable' range. I am in a suburb of KC and new homes are still being built, but they start at $500K, 2K+ sq ft and are crap builds. KC passed an ordinance slapping new green regs on development and has seen almost NO new SF home permits issued this year. In a city of 500K people! But every week a new apartment development is announced.
I will note, though, I knock a LOT of doors for candidates. The software is not all that accurate, but will give you the age and party of the resident (it's a guess, party registration is optional in MO) and I am constantly surprised how many people in their 70's, 80's and even 90's are still in their homes. These folks won't live forever, and a lot of homes will be coming on the market in the next decade as the boomers+ die off. Many of these homes are not updated/obvious maintenance issues and lack the amenities that too many want/expect today. So they will sell to investors who turn them into rentals.
We are in an HOA and saw this first hand - aging owners can't keep up, sell, but few takers for homes with shag carpet, yellow linoleum in the kitchen and flowered wallpaper, so investors buy them and rent them out. We voted to ban rentals going forward to stop this trend 2 years ago (but legally had to grandfather in existing ones) and are seeing some young families move in and renovate. My son and his wife started looking in 2020 and wanted 'move in ready' but reality set in and they bought a dated house with 'good bones' and are still working on it as cash allows, but took them 6 months to find something they could afford.
Agreed. Costs have gone through the roof and even with doing some of the work ourselves we have backed off plans for a kitchen reno as we don't do debt and can't cash flow it. The contractor who did our bathroom upgrades a decade ago had pivoted to almost all 'aging in place' projects but said that business is really slowing down.
Lots of older folks have out-of-pocket medicals bills to pay...Rx costs also.
Is a spouse in a nursing home? Are they saving their money to move into assisted living? Are they supporting deadbeat adult children? Are they taking care of grandkids? Have they decided not to spend $40,000 on a kitchen redo that they won't get many years to enjoy?
I was pretty annoyed at your original comment when you first wrote it. Probably because you used the term "boomer" which has turned into a pejorative.
And what is so wrong about an older person staying in their home? Lots of memories are embedded into homes. Baby's first walk. A child's first day of school. Proms and graduations. Why should an older person move into a soulless white box apartment? After all, they worked hard all those years to have a nice home to raise a family. Just because a house is outdated, doesn't mean it is not important to the person/s living there.
And maybe younger people need to lower their expectations. Unless they want to spend $700,000+ for a new build that has all the bells and whistles.
I am just thankful I have a roof over my head...in my outdated house that I grew up in. Lots of veterans are homeless and living on the street, so I thank God every day for what I do have.
Sorry! I did not mean to be pejorative. I am just saying the younger generation is bypassing these homes when they go on the market, opening the door to more investors moving in and turning more and more homes into rentals. Too many rentals in a neighborhood does depress property values as many investors just do the bare minimum, if that. Constant issues with the rentals in our neighborhood, dead trees, peeling paint, etc, and takes multiple letters and threats of fines to get landlords to take care of their properties. My son and his wife rented a home for 2 years in an adjacent suburb where the owners did NOTHING - tree damage from a storm sat for a month before my hubby and I came over with a chain saw and helped them clean it up as multiple calls to the landlord were ignored. Borrowed our ladder and cleaned out gutters as trees were growing in them, and so on.
My friend's dad passed away 2 years ago was still in the family home that she and her siblings had been helping him maintain (but no upgrades) and when they listed it, they said, no investors, we want to sell to a family. Offer after offer from investors and 2 private sales fell through and finally just wanted to be done and gave up. So, just saying mis-match between young buyers expectations and economic reality. They would rather rent than buy a fixer upper but then complain about how they can't afford a home. That is just MY market. I know hot markets are just insane period. A friend's daughter in Denver just bought a 900 sq ft fixer upper and paid twice what that would sell for here.
I just used the term boomer+ as a demographic term, not intending to be negative. In 2023, 51% of houses sold nationwide were sold by boomers or silent generation, and were only 38% of the buyers and that gap is only going to increase. My point was these homes WILL be on the market in the coming years and if younger buyers don't buy them, investors are going to accelerate their holdings. Sadly, the days of big extended family helping care for the older generation are dying. I spent the first 6 months of 2023 caring for my mom as she did not want to move out of her apartment she had lived in since my dad passed in 2014. Kept saying she just needed more time to recover from a leg injury but she could no longer get around well and had several falls with fortunately no broken bones, but she was not improving and her apt was not handicapped accessible for a wheelchair. Couldn’t move in with us as we have stairs, live in a split level.
So I 'get' wanting to stay in wherever it is you call home. But there is a tipping point somewhere. My sisters are on either coast. I could not work, self employed, save a small project here and there, I was sleeping on an air mattress most nights in her apartment and something had to give, we have bills too. If I don't work I don't get paid. So my perspective is colored by that, and have half a dozen friends in similar situations, spending alot of nights and weekends taking care of a parent(s) home as well as their own as they don't want to move.
Speaking for myself only, personally I am not handy at all and don’t like doing work like that either (partly because it doesn’t come easily to me and is thus very time consuming and fraught with do-overs). And I don’t have family or friends who could help me and/or teach me. I also homeschool my son and work part time (freelance) as well as take care of the household, cooking, etc. So I have a full plate as it is. My husband is more gifted as far as being handy goes, but he has two jobs and very little extra time. We have what was a new build when we bought it but now is almost two decades old. I’d like to make some improvements and updates now but will likely be paying someone else to do them, when we have the money. At least that helps give someone else a job! 😑😛
My little town of Carson City is building 3-level homes with only the required 10 ft between them. These “communities” are popping up all over. One of these was supposed to be “low income” housing but the starting price is between $4-500,000 each. We can’t even afford that, not at the current interest rates. There are no new neighborhoods with large lots for a family being built. The single family homes being built don’t have much of a backyard and the neighbors are too dang close. Might as well live in an apartment.
yep, one developer proposed an 'affordable' development that would have trashed all of the codes for setbacks, yard size, parking, etc. Didn't pass as the surrounding neighborhoods raised h*ll saying this level of density would hurt property values, increase traffic, etc. Prices still exceeded 'affordable' - defined as the payments for a person making the county-wide median family income could not exceed 30% of income, and they were the same, 3 story, tall skinny homes with no basements and almost no yard, save a 'common area' green space. Funny, they said would appeal to seniors since the tiny yards would be easy to maintain, but my parents downsized due to trouble navigating the stairs when they were in their 70's. - how many seniors want all those stairs a 3 story home would have?!
We’ve got a new subdivision being built behind us with smaller lots (still ok sized but not as big as the ones where I live) and the builders and developers keep saying people don’t WANT large yards anymore because they don’t want to maintain them. I’m not sure I completely believe that though 😕
We lived in CC back in the late 80's early 90's. Was a lovely place then. My husband worked for a building company and they were busy at work building houses in Minden and Gardnerville. I said to him then, one day this whole valley will look like one big city.
All of the ranches between Mica and the Arco in Minden are still there. Walmart moved to the top of the “hill” with Target and Home Depot further down by Jacks Valley Rd. I came here in 1997 and immediately fell in love with it. We lived in Dayton for about 10 years. Boy has that town grown! There are now 2 stoplights! LOL. It’s gotten more expensive but still has that small town charm. We even have an Olive Garden! 😂
Yea, we are looking at adding a screened in porch (a nice one) and/or a master bedroom downstairs. It is going to cost more than we originally paid for the house so yes, prices for everything are UP.
Yes, our ancient dishwasher crapped out and we buy our appliances from a place that sells floor models, scratch and dent. etc. for about 30% less than typical retail. Bought one that was $150 less than Home Depot with a slight scratch on the door. Thought we got a deal. $265 for the plumber to install it, and $45 for our trash company to haul away the old one. EVERYTHING is expensive. Getting ready to replace the flooring in our basement and bracing ourselves for sticker shock.

Both of my brothers are in Buda and my best friend is in Kyle. Years and years ago, these areas were rural. Now there isn’t much separating them. Same in the Boise area. There’s not a lot of distinction between Boise, Eagle, Meridian, Star, Nampa, and Caldwell. Middleton is a little “out of the way” but is also growing and merging with Star and Caldwell. It’s no longer affordable to people who have been there their entire lives. Wages aren’t keeping up, either.
It's been the plan the whole time. They're turning the major cities into s**tholes so the monied people and businesses leave and the junkies and homeless stay, then buy up the real estate for pennies on the dollar. They're working on doing the same thing to the middle class; drive up costs until homeowners default....
Just happened where I live and it’s going to happen next year as well. My taxes went up 50% but I feel lucky, others went up 100% and others even more than that! A lot of retirees as well as a huge diverse population here that were just trying to get away from the city’s crime…I bet there will be tons of tax sales for property…wonder if BlackRock shows up 🤦🏻♀️🤔
I’m glad our property taxes got capped at max 1% of assessed value under the governor who was in power when we moved here. At least that way you don’t get a big surprise increase from one year to the next. Our taxes have remained relatively reasonable for the most part.
They want to tax us out of our property. The reality, though, is that we don't really own our property if we have to pay property taxes on it. How can you own a property if the government can take it from you if you don't pay the taxes? It is a form of extortion and has its origin in feudal Europe and the serf system. Furthermore, you pay taxes when you purchase the property and then have to pay taxes yearly afterwards so it is also double taxation.
Time to defund "public" education which are nothing more than corruption centers to proselytize children into woke, marxist, sexually undefined, morally rudderless, intellectually handicapped "idiots" - and I only use that term in the literal sense.
Yes it should be an opt in system where parents who want to their kids to attend public schools pay for the schools. The government requires kids to attend school then makes all property owners pay for it. It’s a racket 😕
YES!! Our county reassessed property values in 2022 and many saw HUGE increases in our property tax bills last year. Our city has given property tax breaks to THIRTEEN apartment/mixed use developments in the last 5 years. The MO legislature passed a 'break for seniors' to where those over 62 can freeze their value. Problem is, not all seniors are poverty stricken, but they VOTE. The rest of us are going to be picking up the tab for the lost revenue, and for young people with mortgages, their house payments will keep going up to cover the escrow. + insurance rates going through the roof after 2 years of a lot of hail and severe weather damages. We 'own' our home, but that is an illusion. Don't pay property tax after 3 years and the county will sell your house on the courthouse steps. Bill comes out in November, due Dec 31. We paid it but Christmas was very lean last year, ours went up almost $1500. And then the Chiefs and Royals convinced the county to put a tax increase on the ballot in April for upgrades to Chiefs and a new downtown ballpark for the Royals. Went down in flames, and the county is baffled!? People are fed up. Question is, will all these D voters change in November?
yes, but then the government then needs to shrink to account for the revenue loss, or everyone else needs to start paying more.
And the sports teams are talking to KS about taxpayer giveaways - not sure if they are just doing so for leverage, but be wary -more of your tax dollars may be used to give tax breaks to wealthy team owners.
Many counties in Ohio, starting last year and continuing have had huge jumps in house evals. Taxes skyrocketed. It's ridiculous and I keep asking what are we paying for?
As an aside, I have always voted for school levys. Never again after all the covid bribe money they got.
Small towns are definitely appealing on many levels. However, one of the cons is that when your kids grow up they leave to go to college or job training, and after that they most likely won't be able to get a job in their small hometown.
I would love to live in a small town. But Iiving closer to kids and grandkids is more important. And as one gets older, the importance of living near family is increases even more. My in-laws, after years of pleading with them to move closer to their children, finally did. As their health and ability to care for themselves declined, we were all very grateful to have them living closer so that it was much easier to provide the help they needed.
And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up; and as was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath, and stood up to read. And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. And He opened the book and found the place where it was written,
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor.
He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives,
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set free those who are oppressed,
To proclaim the favorable year of the Lord.”
And He closed the book, gave it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on Him. And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
This scripture gives me goosebumps. To think those in the room were in the human presence of Christ. He is telling them who he is. I often run this scripture visually in my mind. I try to hear the murmurs or experience the shocked looks. The moment Jesus hands back the scroll. The sound of rustling robes. It calms me and puts me to sleep if I can’t get there. Thank you, Janice.
Have you seen The Chosen? You can stream on Amazon prime and probably other places. It follows the Bible and this scene is powerful. I’m not sure which season.
I feel the series really brings Jesus to life and humanizes him. it is so emotional. Oh I am sure there are haters of the show for whatever reason, but it brings people closer to Jesus. Which is the best thing!
People complain about the show's theology or who's associated with it (personally I haven't seen any serious problems) and that it doesn't stick strictly to the Bible, but if you approach it as a dramatization ["based on a true story"] I find it really good.
(It adds some made-up backstory to some of the characters for the sake of drama, but as I said I didn't find any of it inappropriate or theologically terrible.)
If you have never been to Israel, I highly recommend going. There is just something about walking the streets where Jesus walked and cross the Sea of Galilee as Jesus did. It brings reality to the Scriptures that we read. It shouldn't make it more "real" but somehow it does.
I almost did once with a church group. But the first Gulf War was ramping up and the trip was canceled. I did get to the hill in Athens where Paul was and walked the streets of Ephesus. Sat in the coliseum there.
A local pastor of a mega church just took a group to Israel. He was encouraging groups to go as their economy is mostly based on tourism. Just as an aside, I was shocked that Temple Mount, Bethlehem and Nazareth are all under Muslim control. We still went to those places, but it was strange. Also, go with a group and do what the tour guides tell you and you should be safe. They listen to the chatter and they know where to go and where not to go.
Yet Jesus died for the ungodly while we were yet His enemies. I'm so thankful for His grace.
Romans 5:6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! 11 Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
Can you imagine the uproar that caused in Synagogue? He declared himself God to all the men who believed they had something to do with their own salvation. The self-righteous indignation and outrage would have been fun to watch but unfortunately it turned them into men of violence.
They thought well of Him, until He said the next things. Then:
And all the people in the synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things; and they got up and drove Him out of the city, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city had been built, in order to throw Him down the cliff. But passing through their midst, He went His way.
For the time had not yet come for Jesus to fulfill His purpose of dying on the cross to redeem us from our sins. That day had been set since before the foundation of the world and it had to take place during Passover so that The Passover Lamb could be sacrificed.
Robin, it is supremely comforting to me (and amazing) that it all happened according to God’s timeline, not man’s. He would merely slip away or disappear from their sight. Until it was time.
Now go look at midwifery school websites. There aren't many but I think only 1 remains that didn't cave to the word police. That change happened in 2015ish? La Leche league was first to go after a lawsuit in Canada in 2011.
They used to caution against it. But about ten years ago, they changed the angle to "pregnant women are especially vulnerable to infections, so they and their babies need to be 'protected'," without even acknowledging possible adverse effects.
All vaccines have the risk of fever. Maternal fever is a known cause of birth defects. I cannot understand why anyone would take that risk. I can’t imagine how much $ pharma must be throwing at ACOG.
Kathleen...If you're available come to Huntsville, AL on 8/24. Part of the all day Patriots Unite & Push event is a screening of the movie "Let My People Go". Professor David Clements will screen his movie, discuss J6 and the J6 prisoners, discuss election integrity and have a Q&A.
Many wrongly believe the J6'ers are now all free because of SCOTUS decision.
Are you sure you are blaming the right people. Think you should do your research. The guilty ones have been free the whole time to do repeated damage to our country.
But Jeff needs to know the government of Florida is still pushing this stuff. Got this today from Sarasota County:
"DOH Sarasota back-to-school immunization clinics
The Florida Department of Health in Sarasota County (DOH Sarasota) is slated to host a back-to-school immunization clinic. All required immunizations for entry into school will be offered. Each child must be registered in Florida Shots and parents must bring each of their children’s birth certificates and their valid ID.
Upcoming back-to-school immunizations clinics:
Saturday, Aug. 3, from 8 a.m. to noon, at DOH Sarasota's Ringling Immunizations Clinic, located at 2200 Ringling Blvd., Sarasota. Click here for more information.

Regarding mass letter campaigns, not sure if they are helpful, since no one has to listen to the State Surgeon General anyway.
But a good issue to go after is the Day 1 vaccine - Hep B. No one can really defend that part of the vaccine schedule. What are they doing with the toddlers in pre-school that they are worried about them getting Hep B?
I’m not in Florida so can’t help much there but I would like to see these dominoes start falling. Funny, the hospitals and schools slavishly went along with the state health department and their recommendations on masks, social distancing and so on during Covid, saying they “had” to but conveniently decide to ignore them when it doesn’t suit them 🙄 I guess they must be following only the CDC now. Also funny how they seem to like following the directives when they can make money on them 😑
Could not agree more about HepB, neither of my kids got that and I think it’s especially stupid to recommend, let alone require, HepB shots at birth 😡
When my kids were young, we watched the 60’s old sitcoms and a few drama shows, “The Fugitive” and “Combat.” The my kids would come home from school complaining they knew nothing about the current TV shows their classmates talked about. Made my husband and I happy they were missing the current culture.
Hah! We just revisited this discussion last weekend while we sat around the family fire pit! My husband insists, he is a Maryanne Man but I remind him that he married a woman with ginger hair :)
I will change the names in one of my favorite jokes...
Biden is walking down the steps of AF1 carrying two miniature pigs, one under each arm. The Marine at the bottom says "Welcome home sir. What's with the pigs?" To which Biden responds "I got one for Jill and one for Hunter." The Marine says "Sounds like a good trade sir."
MRNA stock peaked three years ago at $497. The government has recently given them about $176 million to develop mRNA based injections for birdy flew. So, despite flagging sales, they are being funded to continue to be a factor in the mRNA arena.
You have to wonder what the next fake pandemic will look like. RSV becomes CoV-3? Birdy flew lockdowns? A worldwide emergency of some sort declared by WHO and the UN? Beware, the globalists still want billions of humans erased from the planet. No politician is gonna save us.
So there are already plans for the bird flu pandemic and the psychopaths are meeting in DC on October 2-4 to discuss the mass casualties. They even have a website to put it all out there! So I guess it’s all up to us to ignore this next round of BS!
I wonder if there really is a bird flu or if it’s 5G being released into the air and if that maybe causes killer flu symptoms for those that took the unsafe and ineffective shot … 🤷♀️
It is all part of the FDA's "future framework" paradigm. They want the platform so they can develop and deploy "vaccines" in record time by just changing the payload. Little to no testing required and the money train keeps on rolling!
Keep your ears tuned to developing news if another pandemic hits. Those of us who have sworn off vaccines, prescription drugs, etc may be the victims if the next plandemic release DOES require a vax or an antidote. That way those pesky citizens who stand up against big pharma will be the ones to go and the sheep who will take any big pharma product will survive (just what the deep state want). So keep your eyes and ears sharp for developments in the next big pharma scam.
Not so. When presented with accurate facts, a proven safe medical intervention, and informed choices, we as an informed populace will make wise choices.
"avian flu" is their focus now. Remember, Redfield knew it too, and announced it on his departure 4 years ago. It made my blood curdle when he said it would be a 40% death rate.
They got my poor brother-in-law. Had a massive bleed in his chest and dropped dead suddenly and unexpectedly after a second Pfizer. Supposedly from thrombocytopenia, which of course he had never been diagnosed with before. I tried to talk him out of it but there was nothing I could do.
Oh, I'm really sorry to hear this. I have friends who took the shots and now have cancers, some have died. I have one daughter who took one shot because her employer said jab or job. She tells me, she hasn't felt properly healthy since then.
I have a lot of friends that tell me they haven't felt well since. Two of my good friends, again, I couldn't talk them out of it, both developed atrial fibrillation right after their shots. It's so sad. I live in Boston and I just went by St. Elizabeth's hospital and at the bus stop they have a big sign of a young black woman holding her beautiful baby that says here are the reasons why you should vaccinate... 🧐🤨😓
That's an informative link. Thank you for sharing it. I remember when Redfield was leaving CDC, when Biden came in and appointed Wolinsky, I saw Redfield on the mainstream news on TV and he looked right in the camera and said you're all going to see that eventually that the covid was due to gain of function. And now he's been chanting. that's how we're going to get the avian flu pandemic. It's just disgusting.
They are trying real hard to whip up fear to get the coming Birdie VooDoo jab. I don’t hear anyone around me talking about it (all of them still nursing at the boobs of MSM). That might be a good thing.
I absolutely would not be surprised if bird flu somehow manages to shut down normal elections this year.
I've been thinking the whole year with Trump seriously looking like he'll win that there is no telling what the demorats will pull. We've already seen a lot this year. They are a cornered rabid animal. I do NOT doubt how far they will go to stay in power. I'm BEGGING God to let Trump win.
Anybody else think we are moving on from the Donald Trump assassination plot a little too quickly?
Moving on? The media barely acknowledged it in the first place. I truly believe that Biden stepping down from the campaign was done a few days after the assassination attempt on Trump specifically so it could be memory-holed more quickly. How Trump handled it makes him look good, and the media will have none of that.
Agreed, the timing of the biden coup and removal was directly connected to the failed assassination plot.
well we know the Trumps all said that the same forces (person/people) who went after his 2015-6 Campaign, his Administration and everyone close to him, then Lawfaring him for 9 years are the same ones behind the July assassination plot. Obama (enlisting Clinton, Biden, and Agency heads) certainly appears to be the main public figure of it all, and of course there are other less visible criminals who sway and control him and make him think he's significant. We shouldn't forget how Trump derailed the Jeb Bush presidency (he would have been the heir apparent even had 'Lary Rodhard Clinton won in 2016).... and earned the ire of McCains, Romneys, Cheneys, and others in the Republistocracy. These NeoCon Patricians despise his interloping even more than the Dems have and are Most Likely Colluding with Dems to take him out by whatever means required.
Definitely an inside job!
Certainly. Speaking of inside jobs, I'm not too worried that they reduced the "alleged 9/11 mastermind" sentence. See the masterful Richard Gage's ongoing analysis at https://substack.com/@richardgage911
Khalid Sheik Mohammed, that is not his real name, was not the 'Master Mind of 9/11'. If he even exists, he was likely a CIA operative
as Osama Bin Laden was. I sincerely doubt he was rotting away in prison all of this time. No outside conspirator could have arranged to have our entire defense apparatus being kept busy with war games, and have NORAD and all of our air defenses stand down. Only Israel with the cooperation of higher ups in the US government had the operational capability to pull off such an operation.
Excellent link.
Yes, great link. Thanks for posting.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
I think it is way bigger than obama, who was a useful, angry puppet. Look at those who show up at WEF to determine our fate. They have the redistributed wealth and the connections with the deep state who trained, equipped, and positioned crooks.
Two leaders block the global mafia's One World Government project:
Presidents Trump & Putin.
The WEF have a temporary alliance with Xi - not the world's first fascist-communist pact.
The WEF think they'll dispose of Xi later on.
Xi's pretty sure he'll destroy the Davos billionaires when it suits him.
Yes, he's just the pretty face for them for public/media consumption, a middleman.
Chain of command:
1. Xi, Gates & other WEF-CCP billionaires.
2. Obama & other politicians.
3. Media hacks.
4. Clooney, DeNiro & other celebs.
Soros sits at the top of pushing the agenda aimed at the destruction of the nuclear family
Look at his ‘open society’ foundation where they’re pushing legalization of sex work

Soros is merely a 'handmaiden' of Lucifer and his evil minions!
LEST we forget- possible cabinet appointees for djt include WEF's Young Global Leaders member Tulsi Gabbard. Also, Vivek's $50,000 from WEF toward college tuition.
For the record, I am very conservative. And, very concerned with these and other cabinet considerations.
JD Vance’s wife was a Bill Gates Cambridge scholar- paid for my Gates foundation
They’re all in bed together
I’ve started to see it all as a huge uni- party!!
He already blew it with his selection of Vance. It shows us he learned nothing from his bad selections in his first term.
Where do you live? What country? You have no clue. He brought Vance on precisely because he learned from Pence, Fauci, Wray, Barr, etc what a traitor really is.
Sad to say in the Democratic paradise of Illinois. /s
That IS another country--sad to say!!
Yeah, his Cabinet picks on his first go-round mostly stunk. But that can be overlooked on his standing as a rank amateur politician. VERY different world than his own, big business.
But this go-round if he doesn't do well on his minister choices he will simply be shoving his/our win off a very high cliff into deep water after dark. Or maybe using the Ship of State to sideswipe a long bridge because of that ship's being "not under proper command", and bringing that bridge down upon said Ship of State, effecting a full stop
WE THE PEOPLE have NO idea of the malicious, malevolent forces doing their 'most ut' TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY and grind us into the "dust of history". Plus...we do have the 'decay from within' in that the morality and social mores have become more and more pagan and despicable over the past 6 decades. "Without and within", we are indeed a NATION BESIEGED in need of our Creator God's MERCY and FORGIVENESS...but will WE THE PEOPLE ask for that mercy and forgiveness??
Trump said years go the Swamp are "vicious".
He has been proven to be absolutely right.
They use every filthy trick in the book.
Fortunately, Trump is "wise" to their tricks and he has some 'inside help' going on that WE THE PEOPLE have no clue about. You do realize for many years Trump was a registered and faithful DEMONrat himself (until after 09/11)...then he registered "Independent" for a few years and finally--around 2005-2006 he registered Republican.
Interesting guy - and the only TRUE LEADER we have running for a Federal office! Most legislators start out 'honest' and get debauched very soon into their terms.
Maybe because Trump doesn't need any money, so cannot be bribed ?
That's PRECISELY why I voted for Trump in 2016 and then, after seeing how he masterfully handled the POTUS position, I voted for him once again in 2020...and, God willing, will do so this year!
I should add, I have NEVER espoused to being MAGA or a Trump devotee--I voted on the person MOST qualified to honor our Divinely - inspired U S Constitution, who is a born leader and who doesn't support the USA being "the World's 'police'" by inciting or enlarging "world conflicts".
I love love love Trump and I am not even an American born.
Just love his straight forward German way. Hee Hee.
Then you would love 'moi' as well, J.C. - my surname is Zartman and I am Germanic 'influenced' through and through on BOTH SIDES of my 'family tree" (smile).
That’s good Sharon Beautiful
evening!
When I get annoyed is when someone tells me "Trump is so rude," or "Trump isn't nice to people." Really? After they tried to kill him and everything?
I LOVE LOVE LOVE his mouth…the way he pisses off the deep state🤣😂😂
And it started right after the elevator ride.
“You don’t want to know what your government is doing behind your back with Mexico…China” 🤣😂🤣😂
I thought WTF…I had to sit down and watch this stuff! 🤣😂
It hurts their little feelers😂🤣😂
The Israelites went after other gods, and we know what happened to them. They are still in the battle for their lives thousands of years later. "Choose whom you will follow" has been the cry from Father God for all time. There is nothing new under the sun.
That last sentence was spoken by Solomon - and he was the "wisest monarch" ever!
Solomon was wise but not godly which trumps wisdom.
He brought back the asherah poles and baal worship.
I wonder why the masons use Solomon in their reenactments and rituals. Lots of mysteries.
I know very little about the Masonic orders; I have had friends involved with Masonry--but they were very 'tight lipped' about its 'inner workings'. I believe Trump is a Mason--but doesn't flaunt that membership either! Secret stuff always 'bothers' me!! What do they have to "hide" anyway??
I just saw this and haven't watched yet but it looks like it will explain a lot.
The secrets of the SECRET SOCIETIES who control the world with Walter Veith
https://www.bitchute.com/video/wnham6fqvyLy/
Dawn: I just started listening to Mr. Veith's dissertation on "The Secrets of Secret Societies" and it is JAMPACKED with very lucid, well documented (in both pagan and Holy Bible sources) information. I must 'pause' for awhile and continue listening to Mr. Veith--I plan on listening to more of his dissertations. He at one time was an ATHIEST AND EVOLUTIONIST follower (reminds me of Mr. C. S. Lewis' bio!!).
I just did some research on this author and what a fantastic testimony he has online anyway: https://dev-adtv.aws.amazingdiscoveries.org/speaker/walter-veith
I'll get on that website you just linked and read up on "secret societies" which is just one of MANY controversial societal issues that Mr. Veith has vetted in his holistic research activities!
MUCHOS GRACIAS, Dawn!!
IDK much either but they talk about Solomon in their ceremonies. He wasn't a good king either.
Masons use their members to control and put them in positions of power to carry out what they need and to filter out those who can be corrupted. That is why there is a lodge in every city. That is how they control and protect the "brotherhood" by secrecy at the lowest level and they move up when they prove themselves getting higher positions. They do the same with the college kids in these secret clubs like the famous skull and bones. The hazing is necessary for them to go through as it makes them subservient to the club and fearful of consequences.
Secret clubs always left me "cold" - don't want to join any of them. I'm not a 'team player' but do appreciate an honest debate of different "trains of thought" with people who are critical thinkers and not "epithet spewers".
Solomon strayed from God because of his 700 wives & 300 concubines. Same with David, Samson...
And they want to sexualize children and pervert them at a young age so they will surely be corrupted later on
I certainly hope so, and it would not hurt us either to remember WHO our enemy truly is...From Ephesians 6 -
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is
the word of God
MAY IT EVER BE THUS!! BLESSED BE THE WORD OF THE LORD!
Absolutely! Satan’s minion fully propped by the globalists who are trying so very hard to ruin planet earth and humanity. They are losing though...
And they really do NOT like having control over certain people who cannot be controlled. Target and eliminate is always their plan.
Can’t be killery’s people… they don’t miss.
Their MO is two shots at close range,
and they are always self-inflicted somehow.
I think Biden would still be in the running if the assassination had gone according to plan.
and according to Laura Loomer (so, grain of salt, even though she gets alot right...), Nikki would be "our" candidate...
And vast numbers of Republican voters would not have voted for her, including myself, throwing the election to puppet Biden once again.
More likely that he would have been next. Obama and crew 25’d Joe via Obama’s call to Joey on 2/21. The crew was at Pelosi, Schumer, Harris (consent) and likely the Clintons who had publicly just sworn to “do whatever it takes” to get Harris elected.
Voila on the same day a hasty letter of withdrawal “from Biden” on X was produced. Tellingly, Biden did not endorse Harris in it. That was a p.s. later.
Yup
Exactly...
Yes
Absolutely. They depended on Trump not being here.
The VP Vance is in place.
I’ve read on the ever reliable internet about Vance being a deep state asset. Trump has been tricked before to choose traitors to the MAGA agenda. With Trump seeming to have a sure win particularly now with the failed assassination plot, having Vance, an alleged deep state player, as VP could be “plan b” of Trump elimination phase 3 or is it now phase 4 or 5?
If Vance was a deep state asset, they wouldn’t be going after him so furiously! They fear him almost as much as they do Trump. What would “they” do to undermine Vance? Spread rumors he’s a deep state asset, of course.
Or a member I’d the WEF Young leaders - like they did to Vivek. He threatened to sue i& they didn’t take it off their website.
The deep state is onto plan B. They know Trump cannot be beat in November. The deep state now needs to get Trump/Vance elected. The attacks on Vance are a ploy; many Trump/Vance supporters will not suspect Vance is a deep state asset if they attack him. It’s twisted as most deep state maneuvers are. Just my guess …
Is he? So you’d prefer their pick Nicki Hailey? Cuz that was the plan. Give the nod to the next highest vote getter good ole Nicki. I’ll take my chances with JD, thanks.
Agree 100%!
Had Trump's brains been blown out as planned, I surmise that somehow DeSantis-Haley would have been his successor ticket scraped together at a frantic, panicked RNC
Nope. Florida Ron has made it very clear HE is dedicated to continuing his very effective cleanup of the State he is now pledged to serve and lead. He is a man of VERY high integrity. Keeps his commitments.
I believe he would be an excellent candidate a bi further down the road, after he is termed out n Florida. Let Trump "do bidniss" with the Deep State and swamprats (but I repeat myself here....) for the next four.. IF he can continue to dodge the "Oswald" lead.
Disagree it would be a Harris-XXX ticket. Whoever is selected as XXX is the DS cabal’s true candidate. Something will happen to Harris.
Hope USSS and FBI learn how to protect people again without political interference. Maybe take them out of DHS Mayorkas’ pocket.
For what it is worth, I make some very generalized assumptions about things. First, nobody goes down an escalator and gets up on the big debate stage, or survives what Trump has so for survived ... and survive it all by his little lonesome self. You and I? These folks attacking Trump? They would have had any of us for breakfast, lunch and dinner in about one flat Manhattan minute ... or less.
Trump probably learned the single most important thing in the real estate development business from his father, Fred. And that is, you are only as good as the people working for you. And Trump likes the people who work for him a whole lot more that the vacuous Manhattan social set. As to J. D. Vance, I suspect that he is maybe hated even more than Trump by the Radicals. And Vance appears to be no dummy, and maybe very, very sharp. Unfortunately, we are more the audience than not, which means that we will just have to wait to see how things play out.
As to the assassination attempt, who really knows what? And I am not going to pretend I know anything. All I see so far is a lot of jagged pieces which don't make a lick of sense and a lot of finger pointing. One can lose oneself in a well of deep speculation.
My last big guess here is that we can only expect amelioration. And if we don't hear the greatest economic crash in history of Mankind, that would be a major miracle.
@daverkb: great post. My short take on the assassination attempt based on what we "know" at this point is that they ("leadership") let it happen and set up the team on the ground for failure: denying the Trump detail adequate assets, fill in augmentation crew with minimal if at all training on how to protect a protectee, originally not have an SS counter sniper team at an open venue like that with all the vulnerabilities and adding it at the last minute (for planning purposes a week before is the last minute), no/poorly at best coordination of comms, no recordings of radio comms, SS not conducting the 0900 brief with the augmentation counter sniper teams, a "pac-man" drawn protected area, leaving the clearest vulnerability off of the plan, zero supervision of what you supposedly tasked to the "locals". The fed "bosses" completely side-stepping Congress during the hearings thusfar. This does not even take into account all the strange things that went on with the suspected shooter, Crooks. Everything that took place on that side of the venue (EGR building side), you couldn't have written a better Hollywierd "movie" with the way that all "happened".
Yeah, I try not to be a "conspiracy theorist", but the lack of accountability/transparency of this regime and these alphabet agencies can't help but lead one to not buying that this was not an inside job. Just too many "mistakes" for the world's supposedly "premiere" law enforcement/protection organizations.
Didn't "let 'it happen," IMO.
They made it happen.
That was an attempt at murder by Trump's enemies.
It's just not plausible that his enemies would say: "Let's give him weak security & maybe someone will murder him."
If they wanted him dead - which IMO they did and do - they wouldn't hang around on the off-chance a 20-year-old would wander up one day and take a shot.
They set him up.
And they failed - but he needs MAXIMUM, LOYAL security now.
They made it happen.
Yup.
From the details I've been able to find, two FACTS stand out:
first, the shots HAD to have come from at least twodifferent rifles, one "open" the other suppressed/silenced. Multiple recordings of the shots confirm this, and leave open the possibility of a third unsuppressed rifle. The sound patterns of the eight shots are quite unambiguous.
Second, there WERE two bullet paths involved, thus at least two different shooters in at least two different locations.
One set definitevely originated from the position of the "lone assassin" on the roof of that unsecured building.... the one that was "too steeply pitched" to be usable.... that line of fire was descending.
One or more of the second set had a RISING trajectory, else it could not have done what those rounds did in the murder and injury of the three folks in the stands well above and, if memory serves, to Trump's right and behind him.
These being quite certain and uncontestable facts based on available evidence, there is no way this was an "Oswald" scenarlo. Interesting that in both cases (I was alive and watched both of these unravel) the ONE PERSON that could have provided sworn testimony to the "big picture"were both killed prior to any enquiry was possible. Case closed... as THEY would have us believe.
Then we had the Zapruder film, which has been proven since to be constructively altered to "protect the guilty". This time we have multiple video and sound recordings, hard to "jury rig" them all.
Given the multiple positions of fire and very different trajectory paths, we can surmise the steps that were/were not taken to secure some places and carefully "exempt" others, thus providing a thin veneer of "protection" efforts yet leaving a carefully cleared pathway toward their goal of One Dead Candidate.
We need to continue to thank God that their carelessness resulted in an epic fail and hope that HIS style of justice will be meted out.
Who by his own hand sheds innocent blood, by the hand of man SHALL his own blood be shed. That is God's justice.
Amen brother.
As an aside, I think all assassinations/attempts are clown shows as everything cannot be controlled. But they rely on the success of the assassination and the resulting chaos to distract from and cover up all the anomalies. Since they missed, now they have a real problem.
Maybe I wasn't clear enough. By NOT doing what they should have been doing, they are enabling and creating a better and more deniable situation, had it gone the way they wanted it to go. Not having the 0900 briefing, having replacement SS support, no drone coverage, adding SS team at the last minute and the other items laid out above, helps their case in setting the condition to have THEIR patsy (Crooks) make the attempt. There is no way that punk did this on his own. There had to be help from the inside.
100% agree on the set up and the need for MAXIMUM LOYAL security.
My conspiracy items in addition:
1. The Blaze Media has a report that Crooks cellphone pinged a tower 7-8 times in DC where the FBI building known as FBI offices where they meet with confidential informants, etc. (I've been there when I worked for the US Courts Admin HQ next door.)
2. CNN contradicted long standing policy to live cover the Butler Trump rally.
3. The famous photo of the bullet in air was taken by the NYT at the super high shutter speed of 1/8000 of a second. Very unusual unless you're there to capture a pic of something going very, very fast.
Completely agree.
Amen!
The use of the term conspiracy theorist is a left wing birthed defecate to undermine the investigation, and discovery, of their sordid plots & plans. They consider their conspiracies successful when they can blame it on a "lone gunmen" or a "political operative" - like Vindman - and the sheeple buy the explanation*.
Yup, good point. I think they started using it after the JFK assassination and the Warren Commission Report (non-report).
"fairy tale" works well.
This is sort of an illustration of my view, too many jagged edges. Something stinks to high heaven here.
“Conspiracy theorists” only know the news before the narrative news allows others to know.
They see the real conspiracies and are whistle blowers and truth tellers. All provable.
The phrase was concocted by intel to deflect from their actions. Classic narcissist behavior.
They Fkers have been at it on large scale since at least 1898 with blowing the Maine to pieces in Havana Harbor.
ya know.... that little escapade has often come to mind of late. Particularly whenever some wonk points back to some incident in the Second German War, or VieNam or Afghanistan, the Maine comes to my mind. That set a pattern and labelled it "OK to do this" back a century and a quarter now. Lather rinse repeat.
Or....have we considered that the INCOMPETENCY of the present administration has "infected" ALL DEPARTMENTS of the Federal regime???
I have often considered this of late, and my verdict is always and ever YESSIREE. that is exactly how things are and have been going down.
This is the direct result of the infestation of everything with the DIE or DEI or whatever,
Yes, and I think that is part of the "what they did not do". They then use it as a sort of cover for what they wanted to have happen. Just like did with J6 on many levels. Incompetency, but willful negligence as well, to affect WHAT they wanted to have happen, have plausible deniability, and then just plead dumb (which they are good at, do it all the time, and get away with it (all the lies they told with the "dossier" and the fake impeachments, etc., etc.
Here’s what I don’t get, how did the snipers miss? The kid, ok, he could miss, but how did the other sniper miss? Snipers don’t miss do they? Or if there really wasn’t another sniper, why did they use this seemingly untrained kid?
I saw a video yesterday that showed something pass through Trump’s right breast pocket of his jacket. Could be fake of course but I saw one photo early on of a hole in his jacket.
https://x.com/bossblunts1/status/1818898308468740161?
HOW could they miss?Easy. Just miss.....
I teach rifle marksmanship to a prtty high standard. There are SO many factors that ALL must be done to perfection. Of course, is range was not that exceptional, but sill not eveyone can do well at 150 yards. Once the basics then the fine pioints are learned, they must be practiced almost to fetish level to make them consistent and automatic. I doubt this kid has fired tens of thousands of rounds through the same rifle with any self-discipline.
I watched a man in his fifties, using an AR pattern rifle, put ten rounds in a one inch circle at four hundred yards range, and do it in thirty seconds. On his next go, one of his rounds was abou four inches away from the other nine.Still inside the top points ring, but hisgroup size had tripled. He had "called the shot" and knew it was off, which direction, and how far. Next course of fire, bac to a one inch group, same thirty seconds time.
Glad to know this chap's on our side.....
They can, because they are human. There are a ton of variables that can lead to even a trained sniper to miss. The alleged shooter (Crooks) didn't miss, he hit the President in the head. The head turn saved his life (less than a quarter inch). Then the President did what he was likely trained to do in an active shooter situation and get down immediately, his SS team on the ground did what they were supposed to do and shielded him. The other five rounds seemed to be fired quickly (which leads to inaccuracy). Mike Adams from Natural News/Brighteon.com has a bunch of good analysis of the weapon, the weapon sights, and the audio breakdown of the shots. It seems to be leaning towards the first eight rounds were from where Crooks was found dead. We still don't know for sure.
Also, new footage released on Sunday from near the AGR building appears to indicate an officer fired his rifle (the 9th round), and that caused Crooks to pause, try to regroup, then he was taken out by the SS sniper.
🎯
Two great comments. You and Dave nailed it. I quit paying attention to all the chatter about the Butler event because it is just one big fog bank. What can be surmised, you and Dave pretty much described.
Yes, I've spent way too much time in speculation this year, but one scenario I envision is: they let Trump have it, then pull the rug out. War, currency devaluation, economic collapse, big infrastructure fails. It will be covid on steroids. Hope I am wrong.
A lot of my friends have gone down the Vance rabbit hole but I see that as a waste of time, it's a done deal now, especially since they are still going to vote for Trump, what choice do we have?
Since we cannot know with certainty because farmers never inform the cattle of their intentions aforehand, it could be anything. And it could be as easily that Trump is Mr. Fix-It and the VP choice might be a signal which affirms such.
What can be seen is that there is a roll back of Woke going on. This has been certain, at least to me, ever since Musk almost effortlessly bought Twitter. This trend now in motion is not expressly designed for 'our' benefit (you, me and us), but of necessity in order for the high orders of the ruling establishment (class) to retain control such as is necessary for the maintenance of continued power.
I think the first Trump presidency was beta-testing, probing the infrastructure for strengths as well as for weaknesses ... and an identification process of the lay of the land and its cast of characters.
Also, I noticed that whoever was behind Trump did NOT contest the Great Banana Republic Election of 2020, not with any determination whatsoever. In that sense, I think maybe that Sidney Powell and Lin Wood got played. And yet the mission got accomplished which was total exposure of the political rot, including election vote counting. And I think that the four years of President Cabbage was always in the game plan as preparation of ground. And after all, the ground is always prepared ahead of the planting. Show folks how bad things really are and get as many dummies on board with The Plan as possible.
I think that Trump will get in as Mr. Fix-It, a rebranding of the franchise requiring a total restructure (financial, economic, political and to a large extent, social and cultural). And it looks to me that the undertaking in this direction is well underway. But this is only my guess based upon perceived trends in motion. And one must allow that any serious derailment (like a McCackle presidency) of what is now trending could require a stark reassessment, even including Western Civilization in a catastrophic collapse (and right now, we are real close to lights out!).
So, this election is indeed pivotal. And everything is on the board for winner take all. High stakes. And if VP McCackle gets in, all bets are off. And most of the above is flawed and a total overhaul reassessment will be in order. However said, a big tip off is that Wall Street, a lot of it, is now for 'change we can believe in' and not the same old, same old slogan change.
Massive uncertainty about the future is pretty much baked into the cake these days, that's for sure. We are pretty much frozen from a planning any big expense at this point., we are keeping powder dry in case we need it to eat if it all hits the fan.
Uncertainty -- no doubt about that. Almost impossible to guess what comes next. And yet the tell tale thing I've been noticing over the past year or so is that the very best in the financial alternative community seem unable to say what is coming next other than comments on instability in markets, liquidity and so on. And so, what exactly is going to happen next is anybody guess. The only real agreement is that some kind a big monetary restructure has to happen, as big or bigger than Bretton Woods. Accordingly, the smart big money has been migrating from paper to hard assets, including the commodities sector, including gold and silver.
Echoing Jay, "Good insight" in this and your follow-on comments. Please add to it as things develop.
"what choice do we have" I see that as a/the problem. No real choices; better the devil you know than devil you don't-scenario?

About the foiled assassination... We can analyze and point the finger but it doesn't matter.
1. They want us confused and distracted.
2. One kid didn't do it alone.
3. If they wanted Trump dead, he would be.
4. What are the chances they only got his ear?
So, if the above is true, then who is involved? All of "them?"
Whose is involved? All of "them?" It's an interesting conjecture ... and it is interesting not because the 'they' are necessarily acting in concert, in unison, and with a single mind, a single purpose. Instead, throw in the idea of circuit breakers, interventions, diversions and things just plum gone off the rails, and it all gets very wild. But then again, if one closes off the entire gamut of possibility, then one ends up with some absurd Master Mind and airplanes as the whole explanation of the 911 debacle. And such cannot be because everything is against it.
Bottom line: I am not buying anything I am being told because none of 'the news' makes a lick of sense. And you said it well. And better than I. And with fewer words. And God bless you! Because to read cogent thinking given to words is a positive joy. It makes my day!
Thanks. LOL. Bottom line... Not believing any of it either. In fact, I am not going to try to figure it out. It is manipulating and elevating Trump. I just wonder and don't get all crazy about it because there is nothing I can do.
I don't think that I will ever make sense out of it, but I would like to know what actually transpired.
It is a lot like the Las Vegas shootings. One could not make sense out of that either. But there were so many things wrong with the official 'narrative' and so many eyes on it that the Mockingbird Media finally memory holed the whole thing and one never heard anything more about it. Just went away. And Las Vegas was set up to be 'their' greatest gun grabbing pretext ever ... and failed.
I think that whatever it was at Butler, 'they' will just keep repeating the same things over and over again and forever flash The Perfect Picture. It will be The Perfect Picture which will be the representation of reality, real or not ... or in parts. (In the Empire of Lies, nothing is real. It's 1984 in 2024.)
You are a nice smart lady. Your family must be proud of you. Same as I am of my wife.
I ALWAYS appreciate your holistic, circumspect evaluation of "current and past events", daverkb! The more I ponder the supposed "clandestine activities" surrounding our country's governance--throughout the centuries--the more I KNOW it is the "Hand of the Great Physician" guiding WE THE PEOPLE through the "shoals" of our country's life span.
SHALOM...fellow C & C "army" buds!!
"And if we don't hear the greatest economic crash in history of Mankind, that would be a major miracle." it's baked into the cake. World government can't win until they break the back of the US economy, i.e. staggering ever increasing national dept, failing real estate (commercial and residential), clobbering the hegemony of the Petordollar, never ending wars..... a laundry list other economic catastrophes all this playing out in real time right before our eyes, all planned and executed by megalomaniacs. History repeating itself except the scope is bigger. Follow the money.
Later Jay
P.s. Think about this: if the FED did not approve of either of the 2 candidates in the forefront, they would not be there.
There may be some truth in this. But I try to remember that the FED is just branch office of the money franchise. Maybe the one of the handful of single most important front offices, but the real power and determinations are made at a much higher level.
I think that Globalism, One World Government as conceived by the people of my generation is already a smashed mirror. I think the multi-polar world is an established fact, not just some mirage or chimerical fool 'em again operation.
In this case, I think mistakes were made and mistakes are now trying to be rectified in the form of pushing forward a new multi-generation Super-Narrative. I think Milei is a visible example of the re-make plan. Will it work? I don't know. But we will see.
I also think C19/health terrorism, think bio-weapon, was a huge mistake in planning and the net effect is shattering of the old world system in which the West dominated. People don't talk about it. But I bet my boots that top key world leaders and their ruling elites have taken notice of the fraud, the injuries, the planned democide ... and tanking 'vaccine' sales are proof of a sort. But what do I know?
As you said, the failure of "vaccinating" the entire planet smashed the NWO mirror. BRICS arose in reaction to their efforts and, having failed, they now must consolidate their control of the Western territories under their domain and, especially in the US, they must subjugate the American people to secure their control. However, I don't think Americans are going to go willingly into that night. And I think they know this. In my mind (and what do I know?), they will necessarily have to resort to the iron fist to try and subjugate America. If so, this will lead to kinetic violence. The BRICS are just going to sit back, shaking their heads, and watch in disgust. (The wild card in my mind, however, is the CCP. They already have too many agents who have come across the border.)
All I have to go on is historical reading, and perceived patterns as they evolve, both over the decades and in near time. Over the decades, whoever has been and now is and/or remains in charge, have proven themselves to not be as smart as they thought themselves to be. Planning and reliance on a commercialized economic system (that being over and to the sacrifice of production based) as the chief mechanism of control to dominance ... this has been an utter bust. This modeling, buttressed by the whole 'fool 'em ideological spectrum of projections (UN, eco-terrorism, Agenda 21/30, DEI, private public, NGOs, etc.), this also has proven itself worse than stupid. And all of this program of orchestrating has one and only one discernible progeny, the spectacle of the rise of the failing Clown World West and its failing Clown World ruling class. The whole dang Collective West is one big cartoon show trying now to desperate reel itself in. And I in my wildest dreams twenty-four some years ago could not imagine anything as totally lunatic as what I am seeing these days!
As to the cattle, the preferred method is to just lead the cattle down another cow path with the promise of a yet still greener upper or lower pasture. This is where Milei and the new narrative multi-generational come in. It will be another fool 'em again thing complete with ameliorations, new fake freedoms, restoration of a new normal looking more like the old normal and with them hoping that we will kiss them on their royal behinds for their 'kindness' to us. They will again hold up some kind of new island of Manhattan, say that it is ours ... and then offer to buy it from us for $24.00 in trinkets.
You have good insight in my opinion, Brother from Another Mother.

You know because you are clearly a DEVOTED CRITICAL THINKER (we need more minds like yours, daverkb!).
SOOO true.
Good points Jay. For those that dabble in eschatology, a world currency will be established, a one world government and ultimately one world leader, welcomed with open arms also. I'll leave the timing and disposition of the rapture class alone.
Love your salutation also Jay.
Just for the record, if they ever ask me to take a mark on my right hand or forehead the answer will be "no".
I choose to go to my real home and not this fake home we live in now.
I think the "one world government" is now a smashed mirror as Dave put it. With the rise of the BRICS, the world is now a multi-polar world and there is no way to reverse that.
Yes, welcomed with open arms unfortunately just like the shot and many many other things leading down the wide path.

"...And if we don't hear the greatest economic crash in history of Mankind, that would be a major miracle."
Yeah, I give that miracle about a 1% chance of happening. IMHO, the best I think I can hope for is for Trump to keep us out of any international wars. If he can do just that then he will have earned his angel wings. Domestically, I fully expect at some point America is in for some historic economic bad times. And given the breakdown of our social cohesion and the mass migration the Marxists have facilitated, I expect an unprecedented level of violence in this country. The two extreme alternatives I'm hoping against hope we avoid is total totalitarian submission versus civil war. Either of those developments will cause massive suffering.
I look at not just one or two things, but many things. Just look at cost/input pricing and ask one's self if the Collective West can compete against Russian cheap energy and China being Russian supplied. And if the geniuses in America think that they can cut Europe off from cheap energy a chief factor of production and create captive markets, they are merely planting the probable economic landmines of the future. Just let dollar hegemony collapse, including in Europe and see how fast Europe bolts to China and the so-called economic South. Just saying. Maybe for awhile, but longer term such plotting by government fails. Price will sooner or later be king and the chief determinate of the direction of future prosperity.
And look at the capital allocation structure of the West with it's inane central command economy (Green/Eco based) which can only be sustained by subsidies which cannot ultimately be sustained anymore than they were under the Soviet command economy. The recipe for failure is already written.
I read or heard something recently about the Collective West and it economic functioning being 'tje rip-off' society where everything is designed to extract the maximum that can be extracted whether in taxes, government licensing, products, etc. Just, for example, think about an Apple iPhone and what is in it ... and ask one's self if it can possibly be worth $800.00 to $1,000.00 new?
Well, here is another incarnation of 'the rip-off society'. You will even find out the biggest factor in the demise of Red Lobster, something I had wondered about.

I compare the above to something I listened about Russia which pointed out the reasonable cost of everything in Russia relative to wages. In the West, however, we are literally pricing ourselves out of life.

Yep. He worked for Peter Thiel. Thiel pumped $30 million into JD's senate campaign. Several of Thiel's entities have ties to the CIA, among others.
I have a really hard time believing djt is just naive or stupid as to the backgrounds of these people that he puts in charge.

Vance has sold his soul to the Israeli lobby.
Vance has never been VP.
But if he is, he is in place.
He isn't and has never been VP, lacking the credentials to be in place.
But Kakala has the credentials? The loon rears its head again...
Vance has the credentials to be President. Which is one of the reasons Trump selected him. Of course you wouldn't understand how leadership works.
I can only assume that you hold the leadership credentials of BoZo in high esteem.
If by bozo your indoctrinated and mRNA infected brain means President Trump, then I will refer you to his great record as a business executive and President, accomplished in spite of the global marxists and deep state enemies of the USA and, or course, people* like you. I'm granting you a doctorate* in using ad hominems to make stupid statements! Doctorates* are given to people who spend their entire life in academia* accomplishing nothing because they cannot survive in the real world of merit.
None of the people who run for president have been president before (until now), thus lacking the credentials to be president. President Donald Trump for president, then!
You've never heard of FDR?

Oh yeah, him too, and a few other second-termers, duh
It is telling that Biden only stepped down after the failed attempts to both jail and kill Trump.
👆🏻🎯👆🏻
And adding in the prisoner exchange..
Suspicious indeed.
I also think whatever happened in Las Vegas to Joe, cutting off his planned appearance had something to do with it. The week before they had all been proclaiming him “sharp as a tack”. Two unplanned occurrences. Tucker Carlson talked to Senator Mike Lee about what they think may have happened with coup of JRB.
Honestly, I think there is above a 50% chance that Biden has passed away or is so incapacitated that he can’t be in public anymore. They’re pulling out the last resort body doubles at this point.
I didn’t watch the “speech” after his return from Vegas, but hubby had it on. What caught my attention, going in and out of the living room, was the way “that” Joe talked with his hands! The “other” Joe never did that🤔
His eyes were very strange. Naomi Wolfe also noticed his hands were a purplish color? The speech itself could have easily been strung together from many of his previous videos. He never addressed WHY? It definitely seemed to be AI .
He's almost a foot taller...
More like 4-6” but it’s still an excellent point
Gives credence to the Tartarians’ existence! The enemy (yes, fellow Americans) cannot gaslight us into believing that was the one & only Joe.
It’s probably Obama in a mask.
Nice! LOL
LMAO... Right?! Good one. I think the only reason he isn't is because he would rather sit in the basement and control the sock-puppet remotely.
AI will play big in the captured MSM this election.
I think the body double did that in an effort to squash the dementia claims. Those with bad dementia leave their hands by their side or in their lap.
Did you ever see the movie, "Dave"? Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver. The president is in a coma and they get a body double.
Is Netflix playing it? Gee, I wonder why not?
Bongino hears Xiden is really cognitively gone at this point, they're just working around him as if he's dead.
Bongino has been a must-listen the past couple of weeks!
Valerie, agree with your assessment. Although I just watched an ABC News video of (supposed) Biden greeting the released political prisoners. If it’s not the real guy, he’s a very good actor. I wish we could’ve heard his comments on that, but his body movement was on par with what you’d expect from Pres. Cabbage.
The last speech given by him I thought was almost certainly a body double with AI voice over.
The real Joe Biden is in Walter Reed hospital drooling. The actor replacing him is doing a commendable job....IMHO.
Maybe it is time for AI to do its stuff.
All one has to do is watch last night's arrival of the former prisoners from Russia...
Joe looks gone.
The expression on his face as Kalamala (🤣) speaks word salad is all one needs to see...
He boarded the airplane after everyone got off like he thought he was going home!😂🤣😂
White House staff has explained he went on board to speak with the other 7 released prisoners and the crew of the airplane. They received no recognition otherwise. Stirring the boiling pot is not always good.
Could be true but I would prefer the information come from something more credible than White House staff who spent the last 4 years telling us how “Joe Biden” is sharp as a tack. 🤷♀️. I saw what I saw that is all.
LOL
I just watched that Maggie, and made the comment that if it’s not really him but a body double, the guy is just too good at acting. It appeared to be the old Joe shuffling around, most likely making nonsensical remarks, since we couldn’t hear them.
Kalamala 😂 good one. Her name is perfect for providing caricatures of her character. My latest favorite is Kakala.
a stroke...he went blank and fell, hitting his face...most likely. Then his master Barry O. threatened him.
I suspect LGB had a stroke or major fall in Vegas. He appeared to have heavy makeup on the left side of his face during his "speech" covering up a huge bump or bruise. Or did one of those Olympic "boxers" deck him?
Biden basically shook his fist in the face of God and double-dog-dared Him to do anything when he said he would drop out of the race "only if the Lord Almighty comes drown" and tells him to. I think the Lord Almighty afflicted him with hyper dementia.
Biden's cronies and his cabinet are still shouting out that same lie! Maybe they think it will eventually stick! Disgraceful!
BINGO! Although I continue to pray earnestly for our election to be free from fraud - there will be MASSIVE 'messing' with the election results from FOREIGN ENTITIES, OUR 'SNOOPS AGENCIES' AND THE D.N.C. What chance do we have with that "coalition" - ZIPPO - unless our Creator God is merciful and intervenes!!
“unless our Creator God is merciful and intervenes!”

There is a quote from H. L. Mencken that reads:
“Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.”
I understand how that author felt.
Once we can set our frustration aside and understand what is going on in America we must unite under the flag.
Under the constitution.
Which is under God and indivisible.
We see what has gone on long enough and what we Americans must stand up for:
We must understand what our reasonable service to God is.
Our own constitution states our rights came from God:
There is a quote from Edwin J. Feulner, PhD that reads:
“The Declaration of Independence asserts that all men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. In other words, our rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are God-given, not government given.”
As for me and my family we believe that it is high time we come full circle back to the one who knew us before we were formed in our mothers womb.
To the One, Who gave us our rights and our life.
So we stand on God first, and become disciplined in His word.
We seek Him first in all things.
It is past time to be about His business.
We get close to Him so we can to shine light into the darkness.
Thankfully, “It is one day at a time.”
To wake up each day and thank God for each day.
Prayer changes everything.
May God bless you all this day.
Agreed!
The captured MSM is the Transnationals main weapon.

Agreed!
the media wants to normalize and mainstream violence against Anti-Progressives, whether political figures, churches, non-Public schoolers, any and all traditionalists are acceptable and expected targets of the triggered and underserved mentally unstable or passionate oppressed persons. Most people carry on like it was a normal occurrence and shrug it off and are unconcerned with the whole thing too. Even Vietnam War, 9-11, and CoVid-phobia policies were just inconveniences to the mass of morons whose main concerns are mental and physical comfort, being entertained, and not needing to be too strenuous in life's daily motions.
Good point
Attempted Mass shooting by lone, disturbed Rightwinger with assault rifle successfully thwarted by Secret Service Sniper at PA Trump rally. Small fragment caused part of Trump's ear to bleed as he clumsily fell fearfully behind podium after initial popping noises of several random shots fired into the crowd. Only 3 raucous pro-gun MAGA attendees were injured, one fatally. The convicted felon candidate Trump immediately took advantage of the situation claiming victimization by media and his opponents and called for his idolizing supporters to fight back insinuating a call to violence and political attacks on those who don't accept the Big Lies of Donald Trump and his controversial campaign. Once the alleged assailant was neutralized by the qualified professional security team it was immediately determined there was no further danger to the angered mass of Trump's acolytes who were being subjected to various mis-dis-and mal-information and incitement that is typically spouted during Trump's public spectacles.

Why wasn’t Marc Fogel included in the swap? His crime was the same as Brittany Griner’s.
And still no word as to what an American newspaper reporter was doing talking to employees of the largest tank factory in the world in front of it.
Thus, "The Father of Lies".
John 8:44 (NIV) - You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Very good and accurate article. Another FF tell Is shoes. Shoes all by themselves. Often Nikes. Happens all the time if you look. As we all know, when people are shot at or near explosions, the first thing they do is take off their shoes. Trump asked for his shoes 3X after the shots.

A polycrisis is a cluster of disparate crises and shocks that interact, entangle and mutually re-inforce one another.[1] It typically leads to more drastic effects than the sum of the parts.[2][3][4] The concept was coined in the 1990s but became popular in the 2020s to refer to the effects of the pandemic, war, inflation, climate change, energy shortages and democratic backsliding.
And just think - we haven't arrived at the "October surprise" yet. That's going to be a real dooozy.
We have the DNC in Chicago in a couple of weeks. That should be umm, interesting, and not because of what will happen inside.
I’m assuming war.
I don’t think so because it has to be something the Dems can pin on Trump. They can try a lot of things, but that’s not going to be it **I don’t think.**

Bevis and Butthead must be your favorites.
I, perhaps, am closer to autistism than you. I see zero humor in Beavis and Butthead or in your comment, if you were attempting humor.
What is autistism? Are you talking about autism?
Yes! They are definitely trying to memory hole it. Charlie Kirk made a video talking about how abysmal Trump’s security STILL is (I guess he was at an event with Trump and witnessed it firsthand). We keep praying for his safety and strength and that of his family. Foil the plans of tue wicked, Lord!
President Trump is managing to stay in the news, albeit controversially, by his interview with the black journalists. He certainly keeps things entertaining. Could someone explain to me what it means to be "black?" I always thought it meant African-American. But I admit to being somewhat culturally inept.
Harris doesn't have an African American background, but she does have a Jamaican background (along w/Indian).
Therefore, the media talking point is black instead of African American.
Frankly, it's a losing fight for Trump. He needs to focus on how she has treated people she has had power over compared to those she didn't.
Candace had a great video explaining that she was raised by her Indian mother and she obtained her Senate seat and was proclaimed the first Indian woman to be in the Senate. Leftists play the card that's most advantageous at the time hoping people won't remember the last card you played. I think that getting the information out there that she is pandering to people could make a difference. I may be overly optimistic.
That’s why Google and MSM sites are scrubbing clean past stories so they can’t be found
The Sacramento Bee ran a story about Kamala being the first Indian American senator being sworn in. Google “first Indian woman in the US senate” and it’s one of the first stories to pop up.
Possibly an Afdian? Kamala pioneering a new race. Indian identifies as African.
Ha! I think you discovered a new race! Gotta give her credit, though. Should it be the Kamalafdian?
Ha! She suffers from an indigenous condition, kamalaufdia
I saw that video and it was excellent. The problem is with much of this 'reveal', including all of her past quotes and interviews that show her as a radical, will NOT be seen by the ones who need to see it. More and more ARE waking up to all of the lies and disinfo machine but not sure it's happening fast enough before the election.
I agree. I wish more people would be awakened more quickly.
There's a lot of empty minds out there who see her as the first female president. Never mind everything else. And they are looking forward to the next booster/mRNA cocktail for the next WEF/Ghate$ pandemic
Indeed...a very sad and duped group of people.
Sadly, the sheeple who vote for her aren't smart enough to count cards. We are but I don't know if it's helpful. If it doesn't mater to them then it shouldn't matter to us. Trump needs to focus on something else.
Agree. The thing I like about him - he is his own man and not beholden to anyone is also the thing I can't stand - he doesn't listen to good advice and has no filter. Sometimes he would be much better served to just shut the heck up and let them destroy themselves.
Signs of personality and insane disorders to create insanity. Easily sucked in if you don't know what truth to stand on. They don't have any truth and will be "sucked" into their own delusions.
Yep. And if you're white, you can just say you're Native American...
Well done Trump for mercilessly demolishing that other total phony, Warren.
These liberals are absolutely shameless.
I love that Rush Limbaugh used to call E. Warren - fauxcahontas (play on Pocahontas)
I agree, but any interview he grants will be race baiting. I say stick to the issues, what he has accomplished and what she has accomplished. The media will never give him a fair shake.
As far as I can see, Harris’ father is Pakistani, her mother is Indian. Her parents moved to Jamaica to manage the family plantation, which included slaveholding. In her earlier career, she said she was the first Indian in that position. No black or African American.
And her birth certificate says she's Caucasian!
Indians from India/Pakistan are technically Caucasian, yes. So her birth certificate is accurate.
Then she needs to campaign as a Caucasian.
I think Canadian-American would fit, too, if she indeed lived there before coming to the States...
Years ago I knew a lady who was adamant that she was Jamaican, NOT black.... 😁
Yes but apparently the Jamaican part of her family has mainly English and Irish ancestry.
Agreed. He would have been better off not going there. But - Trump is Trump. A willingness to say whatever he wants has been a big part of his charm.
Spaniards brought African slaves to Jamaica, so… It is probable she is of African descent just like many Jamaicans and African Americans. Black means black lmao.
She is a descendant of Hamilton Brown (1776-1843). He was born in Ireland and was a plantation/slave owner in Jamaica. His son was also Hamilton Brown (1833-1918). Christiana “Miss Chrishy” Brown (1888-1951) was his daughter, who married Joseph Harris (1871-1939). They had a son, Oscar Joseph Brown Harris (1914-1976), who married Beryl Harris (1921-1960). They then had a son, Donald J Harris who is Kamala’s father. Christiana Brown was the daughter of a Jamaican mother and Irish father. From there until Kamala’s father married her mother, all of the ancestors were native to Jamaica. She has more Indian blood than she does Jamaican or Irish.
so was miss chrishy was the product of h.brown banging his African slaves? (also this nitpicking feels gross - why do we care??)
Jamaican is not a race, any more than American is. Dad was born in Jamaica and has Brahman (very light skinned Indian) and Irish ancestry.
Nobody is white. Compare yourself to a sheet of paper. That's white. We are not white. We all have color. Skin color is determined by the amount and type of melanin in the skin. We ALL have melanin. We are all just different shades of melanin. "Blacks" do not own melanin as much as they like to claim. So when it comes to skin color, we are all the same - just different shades.
I have to add, we are too often so superficial in our thinking. We use the term "white" or "black" as a convenient linguistic convention to differentiate people. But we are intellectual lazy slobs when we actually believe that these terms are literal! I'll give another example. What comes to mind when you hear the term "Israel"? There is a 20th century political state called Israel. Also there is a collection of affiliated tribes from 4,000 years ago collectively called Israel. Then there are the people of Jesus' day referred to as Judah which we still refer to as Israel even though they are mainly composed of people from the tribe of Judah. Are these all the same? We treat them as such because we label them as all Israel and as a result of intellectual laziness, we literally believe they are the same. My purpose is not to start a theological debate. My only purpose here is to point out how intellectually lazy we all are in our employment of language and "truth". Reality, more often than not, is something other than the lazy way we think and talk. I'll give one more example. We STILL use the word "vaccine" to refer to a murder weapon of mass destruction that never fit the scientific definition of a vaccine. Why? Because the term "vaccine" legitimatizes the bio-weapon and thus legitimatizes the mass murder going on around us.
This USMC wife remembers we all are shades of “green” OOhRah!
As Christians, we are
“Gentile or Jew, Servant or Free, Woman or Man - no more”… (Hymn One Bread One Body)

The latter was created by God, the former by the New World Order.

But you spend very little time thinking about Israel; even less attacking her no doubt. Such dishonesty.

I once heard someone say “there is only one race - the human race.” I wish we could embrace that truth.
Thank you! I did not think to cover that in my earlier comment. "Races" is another one of those oxy-moron phrases. I guess I need to make a list. The intellectual sloppiness of thinking is appalling. THERE IS ONLY ONE HUMAN RACE just as there is only one God. We are many cultures and many shades of melanin. Nobody is white.
Every Census I mark the box “other”. I am pink with brown polka dots.
Been doing that for 3-census’s…and write in American. If we don’t want racism, let’s stop categorizing by race!
I had someone come to my door in 2020. He said they didn’t receive it. He was a young man and I witnessed his light bulb turn on when I explained to him why I am in the “other” category. His whole body language changed and he said, “you’re right”.
Right. They keep us brainwashed by repetition and habit.
Oh, I like that one… 💖
The fact that no one can provide a specific definition for what makes one person “black” and another “white”, besides saying vague things like “you just know” or giving archetypal examples instead of a set of immutable characteristics that we can base that definition on, is very telling. No one can tell me where the “black” skin tones on the foundation color swatches begins and where the “white” begins. Not to mention Asian and Hispanic. Also lumping in Indians because they’re on the same continent with the Chinese makes no sense. They are as unalike in many ways as so-called “white” people are compared to the Chinese, Japanese, and other East Asians. All of these attempts to categorize people and make them fit into boxes that clearly make no objective sense is just a failed simplification anthropologists tried to make that we’d be better served to jettison.
Yes! We are all one race - the human race. I won’t give them an inch on their terminology anymore.
Ironically, while they have humans all worked up fabricating and focusing on minor superficial differences they are working hard to destroy the human race and replace (what is left) with “transhumanism.” Satan will Satan.
Reminds me of that childen's Christian song, "Jesus Loves the Little Children"....."all the children of the world....black and yellow, red and white, they are precious in His sight...Jesus loves the little children of the world." (and we are ALL 'little children' in His sight).
So, years ago I had a position as a Russian language teacher, paid by a federal grant for magnet schools in inner cities. The premise was that providing unique educational offerings (like computer science - this was in late 1980's, Russian language, science labs) in these schools would attract white suburbanite students to these inner city locations. In order to "prove" this concept was working, when it came time to send in the grant reports, students were placed in the category of "white" if they had at least one white person in their bloodline. So, by that measure of our own federal government, Harris and Obama, had they attended this school, were white kids. There's the singular human race. PERIOD. Labels are a tool of Marxism to cause division.
Being Black is anything you want it to mean. I am white by day, but at night I am black and you can't see me.
My father was white, born of a white American female married to a white English father. My father was born in Cape Town, South Africa which makes my father African by birth (even though he was almost immediately registered with the consulate as being American). I am white and American born. But since my father is also African, that makes me an Afro-American. And since I am Afro-American, I must be black. And I could check that box on the government's paper. And guess what? I also pass for white all the time.
This is a bit of sarcasm. But there is some truth to it. After all, everything and anything these days can be what you decide it to be. As Humpty-Dumpty said, "Words are what I say they mean."
A couple of decades ago, we had a preacher and his family that were from South Africa. They all got their American citizenship’s the right way. When his kids went to apply for African-American scholarships, they were denied outright. Yes, they were white… Yes, they were South African. Make it make sense…
Ha! My dad born in Cape Town in 1920, if he were alive, would be shocked to find out that he was Afro-American, which strictly speaking ... he was! There was in dad's formative years and young adulthood, black and white and people did know their ethnic origins of which they took family pride in. BUT ... WE WERE AMERICANS back then. And what are we now?

POC: any person with dark hair and brown eyes who votes Democrat. Except for blue-eyed Jorge Ramos whose politics, accent, and suntan put him in POC territory.
I'd like to get clarification of the Britishness of the term.
Well then, feel free to go get it (clarification).
Like moms and dads used to say, go look it up.
Be sure to consider the source.
Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you read...
Think for yourself.
Etc.
Misnomers require no clarification.
Are you a glutton for punishment, hanging out here?
Would you like to get clarification? or do you need no clarification?
Make up your minds...
I only have one mind, unlike an apparent schizophrenic like yourself.
Actually black is a lack of color. White is all the colors.
Actually you have that visa versa. 😉
Black is an absence of light.
But in pigments, it's the reverse.
When mixing colors for paint it's one thing, with light, it's another.
Yes depends on the context.
But for light, there would be no need for pigments.
light is all the colors until it's broken down with a prism or filters
no need for pigment but there is ''color''
Refraction doesn't break anything down.
and remember, we don't ''see'' most of the spectrum of light
Harris could certainly be called "African-American" since Black people in Jamaica have ancestors from Africa.
You can't really use the term for black people in other countries, like Blacks in England or France.
It doesn’t mean anything. It’s an arbitrary distinction partly based on skin color and partly on physical characteristics and heritage/ancestry. But no one can provide a precise definition of what “black” is (or any other “race” for that matter). It’s all nebulous, “you just know” kind of stuff. There is no specific skin color range that corresponds with “black” only and that doesn’t overlap into anything else, and the so-called defining physical characteristics are imprecisely described and cannot be distinguished from those of another “race” in any quantifiable manner.
Since the media is controlled by the intelligence services, and the intelligence services tried to kill him, I’m not surprised they don’t want to talk about it.
What assassination plot?😏
You mean when Trump fell and had to be escorted off stage by the SS because there was an "incident"? Nah - nothing to see there. </s>
Like..maybe...they are trying to hide something...
Buried from the get go. I'm surprised the media didn't cut all the live feeds and claim technical errors and never let the footage out and never say a word. Of course, people with phones had footage but they could've claimed it was deep fake or just ignore.
Why did CNN, ABC, NBC, Etc attend? They have never covered a Trump rally this year. How did the AP/Rueters photographer get a picture of the bullet flying past his head? No photographer has his shutter speed set at over 800ft per second, period. They were ALL there to get the "pink mist" shot.
Bank on it.
That was a NY Times photographer and the shutter speed was 1/8000 second, but your point is exactly correct.
Someone tried to assassinate Trump? What?
Of course, but didn't you know that was going to happen? You didn't think the Dems were just going to lie down and take it, did you, especially since so many people asserted that "DT just won the election!!" so breathlessly.....
Yes. I have to look for it on Twitter. A handful of people are digging and posting but haven't seen much in the way of new information other than the video shared by one of the shooting victims that shows someone running on the roof while Trump is speaking. A few claim it shows him being taken out while Trump is still speaking, but it's super grainy and not sure as it's so fuzzy. George Webb has a whole bunch of stuff he is looking into but most of it is behind a paywall and not sure it he is trustworthy or not.
Chris Martenson @ Peak Prosperity is still covering it almost daily. He has a you tube channel (for now) and a podcast. They are both free.
He has his own website: PeakProsperity.com. He's on rumble as well.
according to google it neverhappened.
What Happened?!! Did I miss something!?!
If someone tried to murder a Democrat - any Democrat - it would be headline news ALL YEAR.
My doctor, having learned a brutal lesson with the Covid shots, refuses to give the RSV vaccine because, “We don’t know the long term side effects.”
Progress.
It’s a sign of intelligence that your doctor admits there is something he or she doesn’t know!! I hope more follow this trend!
Need more medical professionals with that sort of thinking rather than "I get $$$ for more people getting shots".
Better late than never!
👏👏👏👏
I spoke to a dentist yesterday who used to work at one of the main VA hospitals. He left the VA when they mandated the jabs along with many others. He said his family will never take another vaccine. I was talking to him about graphene in the dental anesthetic. I pointed out what another dentist found here https://www.fargodentist.net/holistic-dentistry/anesthetic/. He wasn't aware of this, but he seemed like the type of person who would look into it. He took the time to look at article. We talked about a few things and he he's not clueless which was nice to see. He said he comes to Substack and knows another dentist here. It's good to see some in the medical field waking up to it.
Wow! 🤩
There are honest and critical thinkers among doctors! When we lived in Ft Lauderdale, my acupuncturist was a young woman trained in Jacksonville and she said her gynecologist recommended AGAINST the HPV shot because there are 90+ different types of HPV virus and the vaccine supposedly works only against four or five but not the most common ones … So. Honest OB/gyn. Nice.
Personally, I think women get cancer from the pesticides on tampons, not some mystery virus.
Excellent!
Yes progress!!!
Supposedly RSV is only for babies anyhow, not for older people, I wouldn't trust any of it, and like the commentor below, I won't let another needle puncture my skin except annual TB test as I am a nurse.
No one knew the long-term side effects of the MMR vaccine either. Walk amongst any older cemetery in the nation and note the alarmingly five percentage of of young people interned. There's a reason they almost disappear in the mid 60s. The vaccines were not combined until early 70s but the same dynamic was in place.
You're one of those people that doesn't play with house money when it's laying on the table, free to use. Pro tip…..
ALWAYS PLAY WITH HOUSE MONEY IF THE OPPORTUNITY ARISES.

The Best Thing In The World
What's the best thing in the world?
June-rose, by May-dew impearled;
Sweet south-wind, that means no rain;

Memory, that gives no pain;
Love, when, so, you're loved again.
What's the best thing in the world?
—Something out of it, I think.

Best wishes for a precious grandbaby! What joy!
Empty New York real estate will be converted into taxpayer funded free housing for illegals. Many hotel owners are already making fortunes from it, worth looking into the list. NYC is spending billions on 200,000 illegals. The NYPD is overwhelmed by all the criminal gang activity and it’s getting worse by the day. The Biden regime is turning every “Progressive” sanctuary city into a communist utopia favela.
Modharmya needs to lobby getting all those intruder-community members fully vaxxed--how did they miss that low hanging fruit?
That would be inhumane.🙄
It might be wishful thinking but my gut says if Trump is back in control NY might get a second wind.
He (and Giuliani) *were* the face of NYC! They were the Kings of its Renaissance after the 70s...and now they have been exiled. So sad.
Careful where you enthrone folks. Giuliani is a politician. IMO, 9/11 forever marks him as one of the criminal cartel. Evidence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RClIv7sG64I&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.protectingall.org%2F&embeds_referring_origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.protectingall.org Fast forward to ~1:15:00 or so; Giuliani implicated in the surrounding 5-7 minutes of footage. (The entire film is worthy of a watch, particularly if one has never strayed from accepting the narrative or by contrast has any nagging suspicions.)
Maybe, but does anybody believe that somebody bought a building for 332million without including the land? I don't know if the NYT article states as much but come on. They sold the land for 285m in 2019. So most of the 332 was recovered then.
The article said the rent on the land was more than the total rents currently being taken in from the low capacity. Apparently that’s a thing in NYC — sort of like trailer parks in Kansas. You own the “house” but not the land. Stupid imo for the homeowner. Great for the land owner.
I had the same thing in California.
Owned my ''mobile home'' but not the lot it was on. Paid mortgage and rent!
Still it appreciated so much in value that I had equity of $18K on a '70s double wide, after living in it for 5 years. It's called ''affordable housing'' in CA...
I don't understand. When you buy commercial real estate in NYC, don't you own the land your building is on?
I recently read about a popular diner closing in Queens, with the owner saying that although he owned the building, he didn't own the land, and something or other...and he decided to leave.
In simple terms, it is called ground rent. NEVER agree to buy a building in which you have to pay ground rent. You only own the structure in that scenario.
I pay "ground rent" to the government on my rural land. They call it "property taxes".
We and all the farmers around us here in commiefornia do the same. And it goes up depending on the crop - listed as “improvements”. Makes it very difficult financially. Once property taxes were legalized private ownership went out the window. Truly awful. So much so wrong with the government overreach.
My mother owned commercial real estate in Brooklyn, NY. No ground rent that I know of at that time. (Before 2000)
In commercial areas, the cost of everything is so high because elitist investors own the land which you rent from them at exorbitant prices. They love their passive income. You will own nothing and you will be happy - sound familiar? This system makes the wealthy very wealthy and makes life exorbitantly expensive for the peons and surfs. It's like this in all cities and it's such a rip-off. It's worse than a time-share. As an example, hair salons are so expensive because of the rent - in an small city in a not so good part of town and in a not so well maintained building, we know of a salon where the rent is $5,000 a month. So just to break even, the owner has to clear $5,000 each month and that doesn't include other expenses.
AND in my city, as the older strip centers start to look ratty, the owners plead hardship to the city council and get them to pass CID's - a 1% sales tax on all purchases made in the center, where the money goes into a fund to fix up the property. And yet the city keeps incentivizing developments with EVEN MORE retail. It's hard to find places that don't have the added tax at this point. This is an issue state-wide.
A handful of our city council reps are starting to push back on this, but developers are BIG campaign contributors, and campaigns are expensive. Too few people donate - have friends running at all levels - local, state and even for congress, who are trying to not take PAC or special interest money but they are at a huge disadvantage to those who are flush with cash.
This isn't completely unheard of in other areas. Fifty years ago my first husband and I bought a house situated on a private lake. Beautiful lake, tucked away in NE Texas. Anyway, we were admonished that we only had a 99-year lease on the land, though we could/would own the home. I don't know if that's still the case, but I can tell you it was fairly obvious that the purpose was to exclude "undesirable" buyers. I'll leave it to you to determine who was considered "undesirable" in NE Texas in the 1970's.
That’s the law in Hawaii also. All those buildings, condos, homes, high rises built since the 1950s are sitting on 99-year land leases.
Interesting.
That is definitely medieval.
You must be rural America
We have that here. They’re called trailer parks aka tornado magnets.
Rural people here will buy a cheap parcel of rural real estate and then put a mobile home on it. They are low income but they are still self-supporting.
There is downtown building in my tiny MO town with that problem. The owners cannot afford to renovate the building because their land lease is about to expire and the landowner won't sell. (Maybe a deal cut a century ago by a shyster NYer.)
LOL! Uhhh... no... because the new buyer is priced in at $285m and is not receiving any income on which that appraisal/ purchase was based.
Yep, my first thought was illegal housing
Bingo. And they just happen to be able to buy up prime real estate at Pennie’s on the dollar. Hmm. What a fortuitous coincidence.
I seem to remember someone who writes a witty blog predicting this outcome with real estate prices toppling and being gobbled up.
That's a lot easier said than done, unless they stop caring about things like "bathrooms" and such. Converting commercial buildings to residential takes a LOT of work, at least if you have to be up to code.
Code schmode! They’re Democrats, they don’t need to follow the rules! 😑
I wonder if The Big Guy is getting his 10% of the criminal gang revenue. Or has it shifted, like campaign donations, to The Little Lady. Oh wait...now I know how TLL raised so much so quickly.
One way or another a 15 minute city will emerge.
What a country!
I was thinking the same thing when I saw that space. Locally, we have motels loaded with them. I wonder what will happen when football season opens? Hmmmmm?
Thanks YB. Good reads, Sir.
Later Jay
Its like selling tires for a 1965 Rolls Royce at $50K and throwing in the car for free. Its a workaround but instead saying the Owner pulled a fast one they instead make it a hardship story. Look out for an increase in taxes...
Dang it, beat me to it.
💯
The stock market too, may suffer from the fumes of such a slow burning liquidation.
Adding more stones to the rocky election.

THIS! got us thru COVID.
I understand now why that was my first husband’s favorite verse. It is so true. Bless his memory. My children ‘s dad.
Oh, I am pretty sure that the 9/11 "masterminds" are still free and living in the suburbs of DC. Probably drawing a check from FedGov, too.
Probably on some ranch in Texas and Wyoming.
One of them might be named "Cheney".
Ding ding ding 🛎🛎🛎… osama died of kidney disease having been on dialysis for years according to published obituaries before 9/11… and isn’t it curious that Mohamed is cited as the mastermind of 9/11…. How exactly would he have masterminded the strategic air command (SAC) training exercise that specifically involved jets hitting the twin towers at the very moment the actual towers are being detonated… who was in charge of that exercise?…. Dick Cheney….
Traitors
Yes, probably retired by now and living off that sweet, sweet government pension.
More than likely.
LOL. yeup. TX
Crawford, TX.
🎯
Poor Mohammad. Still in that same shirt. Do we know that he is alive? Maybe he can do a Tucker interview.
LAZY Media can't get an updated photo, or look into the connection with the prisoner swap (Butt-kissing the Europee-uns?) to drop the death penalty for the "Masterminds of 9-11"...like that would ever be carried out in legal fashion anyway...only Epstein and Vince Foster types get the death sentence from Deep State.
Have you ever seen another photo of him? Not sure I have. Does the guy even exist?
Probably has a body double.
LOL
Indeed. My way of thinking. Read a post with the author of “Where Did the Twin Towers Go”. Fascinating and compelling.
“Where did the Towers go?” By Dr Judy Woods ~ This book contains physical evidence, not theories or speculation, but physical evidence that is overwhelming and conclusive as to what happened. But for the record, I do not believe that our government is responsible for executing the events of 9/11/01; nor do I believe that our government is not responsible for executing the events of 9/11/01.
This is not a case of belief. “This is a crime that should be solved by a forensic study of the evidence.” Before it can be determined who did it, it must first be determined what was done and how it was done.
The order of crime solving is to determine
1) WHAT happened, then
2) HOW it happened (e.g., what weapon), then
3) WHO did it. And only then can we address
4) WHY they did it (i.e. motive).

Yes. That’s it. I have the link saved. I was blown away by the evidence. It’s a frightening thought this kind of weapon is in the hands of those who used it to kill and destroy first. We cannot trust this technology at all. I certainly don’t know the truth of who and why. Will we ever?
Is there a book? I followed the link but it just took me to an introduction.
The link I got below was an archived book with 500 pages. Maybe this works? The book on Amazon is $50.00.

Was this post on Substack?
https://unbekoming.substack.com/p/dustification
When I looked at that first picture of the Towers disintegrating, I had to ask myself if I have ever seen a demolition of a building with that effect. No... impossible. My first thought was of a small nuclear bomb at the base of the buildings producing that. But apparently, the base and the infrastructure underneath the buildings were relatively undisturbed. Secondly, while there was much evidence of "burning", there was NO EVIDENCE of heat connected with a lot of the "burning". What?! Apparently, objects like ceramic toilets and marble fascia on nearby buildings were completely vaporized into non-existence but paper objects were not burned at all. (I think physics might have a clue about this.) Furthermore, the sheer mass of the buildings simply vanished into thin air. What was left on the ground after the event could not even begin to equate to the mass of these buildings.
"After eliminating all plausible explanations, whatever remains, however implausible, is the truth." As far as I can tell, nothing plausible explains how this happened. The implausible explanation is that a "novel", unknown energy source that burns without producing heat was used to destroy the buildings. The rabbit trail leads to something called The Hutchison Effect which has always been disregarded as a "paranormal" phenomenon which is simply a scientific term for ridiculing something that can't be explained by the approved scientific paradigm. Among other things, the HE causes catastrophic fracture of metals. Now stay with me. This leads back to Nikola Tesla and his experiments. I don't understand any of this but apparently this rabbit trail also leads back to a part of quantum field theory called the Casimir Effect which has been described as "a force from nothing."
Now Nikola Tesla died in 1943 and upon his death all of his research was seized by the USG and has not seen the light of day since. Who knows what these idiot Gov't researchers have done with it? Nothing would surprise me anymore.
I can’t stop thinking about what I read and saw in the pictures. The antenna mast. Into dust. De-materialized into the air as it still stood in place. People there reported humans disappearing as they ran.
Well I guess those eye-witness accounts weren't worthy of an interview.
And who was sent in to evaluate the Tesla research for the USG? None other than Trumps Uncle John!
"Three weeks after the Serbian-American inventor’s death, an electrical engineer from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was tasked with evaluating his papers to determine whether they contained “any ideas of significant value.” According to the declassified files, Dr. John G. Trump reported that his analysis showed Tesla’s efforts to be “primarily of a speculative, philosophical and promotional character” and said the papers did “not include new sound, workable principles or methods for realizing such results.” https://www.history.com/news/nikola-tesla-files-declassified-fbi
Wow...never knew that. I have so many questions..................

Yep
Yep, and they were all the pawns of the true masterminds - the Zionists at the very top who orchestrate everything.
The loss of revenue from commercial real estate will hit homeowners.
Wait for it...it is coming to your city.
In Pittsburgh, commercial buildings were able to get refunds on their tax assessments because of vacancy. So the Pittsburgh School District had to refund millions of $$$.
Next stop...coming after the homeowners.
Now the school district wants a reassessment of home values to make up the deficit.
It's gonna get ugly.
Give it 3, 2, 1....and residential real estate crashes too. Austin is a harbinger of things to come for many areas. How will municipal governments cope? (Semi sarcastic)
68% of our property tax $ go to the school district. They just completed a $68 MILLION 'upgrade' to one of the high schools, have money to blow on DEI ('belonging') consultants, and 15 more superintendents in the last decade despite enrollment being flat. I could go on and on. And yet. constant handwringing over the 'lack of funding'.
In the last few years I have noticed - drive through any small town, especially those that are dying a slow death. Aging buildings, boarded up properties...but the government buildings are all shiny, new and well maintained. Gov sucks the life out of all it touches.
Boy, I’ll second that! In Joplin, all the nice, new, commercial construction projects are govt buildings. I can’t remember the last business that put in a new building.
If you are in Joplin do you know/are you voting for Chris Wright for gov? He's from there, really like him and think he is the only honest gov candidate on the ballot. Been knocking doors for him in the KC area.
Definitely. I go to church with him and he’s a great guy!
Talked to him Monday, says he knows he is the dark horse in all this but that at this point he has done all he can and it's up to God now. I think he has practically lived in his car the past 6 months, MO is a big state!! As I am talking to voters at the doors, I am telling them all the big 3 do is bash each other - Chris is actually talking about the issues. I have a giant stack of postcards I've gotten in the mail - every one of them a negative bash your opponent message. Every one of those candidates lost my vote.
Lots of money is invested into very nice medical buildings as well.
Yes - our town has 3 hospitals and all 3 have had expansion and update projects in the last 3 years. Suppose some of that is demographics, but still, makes me think they are flush with all that sweet sweet covid money.
Are home prices over valued in Austin?
Home prices across the country are 7-8 times annual earnings versus a 3x historic multiple. It's simply not sustainable. Reversion to mean is inevitable, just the timing is questionable. Check out the links I posted. Both are very interesting.
My experience in real estate is that somehow smart people become stupid when they join NAR (National Assn Relators) And keep in mind that the NAR narrative only represents existing housing. In the Boise area, for eg, Toll Brothers was recently offering up to $75k in incentives to purchase some of their homes. Those incentives are not showing up in the appraisal values (which is another simmering problem that will eventually hit the real estate market). Builders don't offer incentives in booming markets.
Stay tuned for the FOMO moment when all of a sudden home owners/boomers with equity realize that they need to sell NOW, before everyone else does. Give that panic a year of two, then it might be time to buy.
Depends on the market. Prices definitely accelerated here, but there are still reasonably priced homes to be had if you are patient, not looking for all the bells and whistles, like walk in closets, master suites, etc. Biggest problem is competing with investors offering 'cash', no inspection, no appraisal. They've been 25% of the sales the last 3 years. What happens if they go belly up due to no more cheap money and all those homes get dumped on the market?
There is a company called True Hold who is buying a lot of airtime on local radio, offering to buy your house, take over maintenance, taxes and insurance, and rent your home back to you. Seems like a house of cards and sketchy as heck.
USD is gonna collapse.
USD will no longer be the reserve currency.
Nations around the world are tired of the economic terrorism that the US does to countries...sanctions galore...kicking Russia out of the SWIFT system.
We are going to have bigger problems than just the price of houses.
Sort of - but mostly because of supply/demand. There are a LOT of people coming in to Texas (and especially Austin) as their companies move here. So there's a shortage of affordable housing and prices have shot up for homes - 3-4x what they were back in 2019.
Same thing happening around Raleigh. Our house has nearly doubled in price in less than 3 years. New homes, smaller, less land, going up for twice what we paid for our house 20 years ago. It is insane and I don't know how anyone is affording it because it ain't like salaries have doubled. We lived in CA over 20 years ago and it feels like the CA real estate market has moved to Raleigh. I hate it. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to move or I'd get the heck out.
My friend/neighbor moved up in 2020 to a bigger house to accommodate her mom and grandkids who stay over a lot. The single guy who bought their house has it back on the market. Only update/upgrade he did was added a backyard fence. (she went through it on an open house day) Asking $90K more than he bought it for in 2020! So not doubled, but still....has had 2 pending sales fall through though, so suspect a price drop may be coming.
Well and between materials costs, labor shortage, and massive over-regulation, there are few single family homes being developed, especially those in the 'affordable' range. I am in a suburb of KC and new homes are still being built, but they start at $500K, 2K+ sq ft and are crap builds. KC passed an ordinance slapping new green regs on development and has seen almost NO new SF home permits issued this year. In a city of 500K people! But every week a new apartment development is announced.
I will note, though, I knock a LOT of doors for candidates. The software is not all that accurate, but will give you the age and party of the resident (it's a guess, party registration is optional in MO) and I am constantly surprised how many people in their 70's, 80's and even 90's are still in their homes. These folks won't live forever, and a lot of homes will be coming on the market in the next decade as the boomers+ die off. Many of these homes are not updated/obvious maintenance issues and lack the amenities that too many want/expect today. So they will sell to investors who turn them into rentals.
We are in an HOA and saw this first hand - aging owners can't keep up, sell, but few takers for homes with shag carpet, yellow linoleum in the kitchen and flowered wallpaper, so investors buy them and rent them out. We voted to ban rentals going forward to stop this trend 2 years ago (but legally had to grandfather in existing ones) and are seeing some young families move in and renovate. My son and his wife started looking in 2020 and wanted 'move in ready' but reality set in and they bought a dated house with 'good bones' and are still working on it as cash allows, but took them 6 months to find something they could afford.
The reason why some older homeowners do not do improvements is because they don't have the money.
Agreed. Costs have gone through the roof and even with doing some of the work ourselves we have backed off plans for a kitchen reno as we don't do debt and can't cash flow it. The contractor who did our bathroom upgrades a decade ago had pivoted to almost all 'aging in place' projects but said that business is really slowing down.
Lots of older folks have out-of-pocket medicals bills to pay...Rx costs also.
Is a spouse in a nursing home? Are they saving their money to move into assisted living? Are they supporting deadbeat adult children? Are they taking care of grandkids? Have they decided not to spend $40,000 on a kitchen redo that they won't get many years to enjoy?
I was pretty annoyed at your original comment when you first wrote it. Probably because you used the term "boomer" which has turned into a pejorative.
And what is so wrong about an older person staying in their home? Lots of memories are embedded into homes. Baby's first walk. A child's first day of school. Proms and graduations. Why should an older person move into a soulless white box apartment? After all, they worked hard all those years to have a nice home to raise a family. Just because a house is outdated, doesn't mean it is not important to the person/s living there.
And maybe younger people need to lower their expectations. Unless they want to spend $700,000+ for a new build that has all the bells and whistles.
I am just thankful I have a roof over my head...in my outdated house that I grew up in. Lots of veterans are homeless and living on the street, so I thank God every day for what I do have.
Sorry! I did not mean to be pejorative. I am just saying the younger generation is bypassing these homes when they go on the market, opening the door to more investors moving in and turning more and more homes into rentals. Too many rentals in a neighborhood does depress property values as many investors just do the bare minimum, if that. Constant issues with the rentals in our neighborhood, dead trees, peeling paint, etc, and takes multiple letters and threats of fines to get landlords to take care of their properties. My son and his wife rented a home for 2 years in an adjacent suburb where the owners did NOTHING - tree damage from a storm sat for a month before my hubby and I came over with a chain saw and helped them clean it up as multiple calls to the landlord were ignored. Borrowed our ladder and cleaned out gutters as trees were growing in them, and so on.
My friend's dad passed away 2 years ago was still in the family home that she and her siblings had been helping him maintain (but no upgrades) and when they listed it, they said, no investors, we want to sell to a family. Offer after offer from investors and 2 private sales fell through and finally just wanted to be done and gave up. So, just saying mis-match between young buyers expectations and economic reality. They would rather rent than buy a fixer upper but then complain about how they can't afford a home. That is just MY market. I know hot markets are just insane period. A friend's daughter in Denver just bought a 900 sq ft fixer upper and paid twice what that would sell for here.
I just used the term boomer+ as a demographic term, not intending to be negative. In 2023, 51% of houses sold nationwide were sold by boomers or silent generation, and were only 38% of the buyers and that gap is only going to increase. My point was these homes WILL be on the market in the coming years and if younger buyers don't buy them, investors are going to accelerate their holdings. Sadly, the days of big extended family helping care for the older generation are dying. I spent the first 6 months of 2023 caring for my mom as she did not want to move out of her apartment she had lived in since my dad passed in 2014. Kept saying she just needed more time to recover from a leg injury but she could no longer get around well and had several falls with fortunately no broken bones, but she was not improving and her apt was not handicapped accessible for a wheelchair. Couldn’t move in with us as we have stairs, live in a split level.
So I 'get' wanting to stay in wherever it is you call home. But there is a tipping point somewhere. My sisters are on either coast. I could not work, self employed, save a small project here and there, I was sleeping on an air mattress most nights in her apartment and something had to give, we have bills too. If I don't work I don't get paid. So my perspective is colored by that, and have half a dozen friends in similar situations, spending alot of nights and weekends taking care of a parent(s) home as well as their own as they don't want to move.
Why is it that younger people don't want to do updates on a house?
Not hard to pull up shag carpeting and refinish existing hardwood floors. Even I was able to it after a friend showed me how.
Speaking for myself only, personally I am not handy at all and don’t like doing work like that either (partly because it doesn’t come easily to me and is thus very time consuming and fraught with do-overs). And I don’t have family or friends who could help me and/or teach me. I also homeschool my son and work part time (freelance) as well as take care of the household, cooking, etc. So I have a full plate as it is. My husband is more gifted as far as being handy goes, but he has two jobs and very little extra time. We have what was a new build when we bought it but now is almost two decades old. I’d like to make some improvements and updates now but will likely be paying someone else to do them, when we have the money. At least that helps give someone else a job! 😑😛
My little town of Carson City is building 3-level homes with only the required 10 ft between them. These “communities” are popping up all over. One of these was supposed to be “low income” housing but the starting price is between $4-500,000 each. We can’t even afford that, not at the current interest rates. There are no new neighborhoods with large lots for a family being built. The single family homes being built don’t have much of a backyard and the neighbors are too dang close. Might as well live in an apartment.
yep, one developer proposed an 'affordable' development that would have trashed all of the codes for setbacks, yard size, parking, etc. Didn't pass as the surrounding neighborhoods raised h*ll saying this level of density would hurt property values, increase traffic, etc. Prices still exceeded 'affordable' - defined as the payments for a person making the county-wide median family income could not exceed 30% of income, and they were the same, 3 story, tall skinny homes with no basements and almost no yard, save a 'common area' green space. Funny, they said would appeal to seniors since the tiny yards would be easy to maintain, but my parents downsized due to trouble navigating the stairs when they were in their 70's. - how many seniors want all those stairs a 3 story home would have?!
We’ve got a new subdivision being built behind us with smaller lots (still ok sized but not as big as the ones where I live) and the builders and developers keep saying people don’t WANT large yards anymore because they don’t want to maintain them. I’m not sure I completely believe that though 😕
Is that Carson City, Nevada?
Yes. I can’t get my best friend to move out here because they can’t afford to buy anything. Rents aren’t cheap either.
We lived in CC back in the late 80's early 90's. Was a lovely place then. My husband worked for a building company and they were busy at work building houses in Minden and Gardnerville. I said to him then, one day this whole valley will look like one big city.
All of the ranches between Mica and the Arco in Minden are still there. Walmart moved to the top of the “hill” with Target and Home Depot further down by Jacks Valley Rd. I came here in 1997 and immediately fell in love with it. We lived in Dayton for about 10 years. Boy has that town grown! There are now 2 stoplights! LOL. It’s gotten more expensive but still has that small town charm. We even have an Olive Garden! 😂
Yea, we are looking at adding a screened in porch (a nice one) and/or a master bedroom downstairs. It is going to cost more than we originally paid for the house so yes, prices for everything are UP.
Yes, our ancient dishwasher crapped out and we buy our appliances from a place that sells floor models, scratch and dent. etc. for about 30% less than typical retail. Bought one that was $150 less than Home Depot with a slight scratch on the door. Thought we got a deal. $265 for the plumber to install it, and $45 for our trash company to haul away the old one. EVERYTHING is expensive. Getting ready to replace the flooring in our basement and bracing ourselves for sticker shock.
Take a look. Present home prices in that city are insane.

Both of my brothers are in Buda and my best friend is in Kyle. Years and years ago, these areas were rural. Now there isn’t much separating them. Same in the Boise area. There’s not a lot of distinction between Boise, Eagle, Meridian, Star, Nampa, and Caldwell. Middleton is a little “out of the way” but is also growing and merging with Star and Caldwell. It’s no longer affordable to people who have been there their entire lives. Wages aren’t keeping up, either.
It's been the plan the whole time. They're turning the major cities into s**tholes so the monied people and businesses leave and the junkies and homeless stay, then buy up the real estate for pennies on the dollar. They're working on doing the same thing to the middle class; drive up costs until homeowners default....
Just happened where I live and it’s going to happen next year as well. My taxes went up 50% but I feel lucky, others went up 100% and others even more than that! A lot of retirees as well as a huge diverse population here that were just trying to get away from the city’s crime…I bet there will be tons of tax sales for property…wonder if BlackRock shows up 🤦🏻♀️🤔
Property taxes will be used to selectively force people from their homes.
BlackRock probably paid off the politicians.
Well it’s IL sooooo…
Illinois is the worst!
Real estate prices have been suppressed in Hellinois due to our exorbitant property taxes.
I’m glad our property taxes got capped at max 1% of assessed value under the governor who was in power when we moved here. At least that way you don’t get a big surprise increase from one year to the next. Our taxes have remained relatively reasonable for the most part.
“You will own nothing and be happy” ?
They want to tax us out of our property. The reality, though, is that we don't really own our property if we have to pay property taxes on it. How can you own a property if the government can take it from you if you don't pay the taxes? It is a form of extortion and has its origin in feudal Europe and the serf system. Furthermore, you pay taxes when you purchase the property and then have to pay taxes yearly afterwards so it is also double taxation.
Time to defund "public" education which are nothing more than corruption centers to proselytize children into woke, marxist, sexually undefined, morally rudderless, intellectually handicapped "idiots" - and I only use that term in the literal sense.
Then we won't need high property taxes. An absolute win/win.
Yes it should be an opt in system where parents who want to their kids to attend public schools pay for the schools. The government requires kids to attend school then makes all property owners pay for it. It’s a racket 😕
YES!! Our county reassessed property values in 2022 and many saw HUGE increases in our property tax bills last year. Our city has given property tax breaks to THIRTEEN apartment/mixed use developments in the last 5 years. The MO legislature passed a 'break for seniors' to where those over 62 can freeze their value. Problem is, not all seniors are poverty stricken, but they VOTE. The rest of us are going to be picking up the tab for the lost revenue, and for young people with mortgages, their house payments will keep going up to cover the escrow. + insurance rates going through the roof after 2 years of a lot of hail and severe weather damages. We 'own' our home, but that is an illusion. Don't pay property tax after 3 years and the county will sell your house on the courthouse steps. Bill comes out in November, due Dec 31. We paid it but Christmas was very lean last year, ours went up almost $1500. And then the Chiefs and Royals convinced the county to put a tax increase on the ballot in April for upgrades to Chiefs and a new downtown ballpark for the Royals. Went down in flames, and the county is baffled!? People are fed up. Question is, will all these D voters change in November?
Question is, will all these D voters change in November?
No. The D politicians have those D voters convinced it’s the R’s fault. Even though the R’s haven’t held any positions of power in many years.
City of Topeka has done the same for retired people. They're giving rebates on property tax going forward.
yes, but then the government then needs to shrink to account for the revenue loss, or everyone else needs to start paying more.
And the sports teams are talking to KS about taxpayer giveaways - not sure if they are just doing so for leverage, but be wary -more of your tax dollars may be used to give tax breaks to wealthy team owners.
Ugh it’s all so disgusting!!! 😡
Many counties in Ohio, starting last year and continuing have had huge jumps in house evals. Taxes skyrocketed. It's ridiculous and I keep asking what are we paying for?
As an aside, I have always voted for school levys. Never again after all the covid bribe money they got.
Illinois pays 63000/student to keep blacks down!
Makes living in a small town more appealing....
Small towns are definitely appealing on many levels. However, one of the cons is that when your kids grow up they leave to go to college or job training, and after that they most likely won't be able to get a job in their small hometown.
My days of raising kids is well over. But I understand how difficult it is for young people to find employment in smaller towns.
I would love to live in a small town. But Iiving closer to kids and grandkids is more important. And as one gets older, the importance of living near family is increases even more. My in-laws, after years of pleading with them to move closer to their children, finally did. As their health and ability to care for themselves declined, we were all very grateful to have them living closer so that it was much easier to provide the help they needed.
“Well, yeah, the money (we spend haplessly) has to come from somewhere…” (they’ll say)
And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up; and as was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath, and stood up to read. And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. And He opened the book and found the place where it was written,
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor.
He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives,
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set free those who are oppressed,
To proclaim the favorable year of the Lord.”
And He closed the book, gave it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on Him. And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
— Luke 4:16-21 NAS
This scripture gives me goosebumps. To think those in the room were in the human presence of Christ. He is telling them who he is. I often run this scripture visually in my mind. I try to hear the murmurs or experience the shocked looks. The moment Jesus hands back the scroll. The sound of rustling robes. It calms me and puts me to sleep if I can’t get there. Thank you, Janice.
Have you seen The Chosen? You can stream on Amazon prime and probably other places. It follows the Bible and this scene is powerful. I’m not sure which season.
I feel the series really brings Jesus to life and humanizes him. it is so emotional. Oh I am sure there are haters of the show for whatever reason, but it brings people closer to Jesus. Which is the best thing!
People complain about the show's theology or who's associated with it (personally I haven't seen any serious problems) and that it doesn't stick strictly to the Bible, but if you approach it as a dramatization ["based on a true story"] I find it really good.
(It adds some made-up backstory to some of the characters for the sake of drama, but as I said I didn't find any of it inappropriate or theologically terrible.)
I downloaded the app. I will watch. I’ve seen some of the first season. Powerful. Thanks.
If you have never been to Israel, I highly recommend going. There is just something about walking the streets where Jesus walked and cross the Sea of Galilee as Jesus did. It brings reality to the Scriptures that we read. It shouldn't make it more "real" but somehow it does.
I almost did once with a church group. But the first Gulf War was ramping up and the trip was canceled. I did get to the hill in Athens where Paul was and walked the streets of Ephesus. Sat in the coliseum there.
A local pastor of a mega church just took a group to Israel. He was encouraging groups to go as their economy is mostly based on tourism. Just as an aside, I was shocked that Temple Mount, Bethlehem and Nazareth are all under Muslim control. We still went to those places, but it was strange. Also, go with a group and do what the tour guides tell you and you should be safe. They listen to the chatter and they know where to go and where not to go.
I would love to do the Mediterranean tour.
Just heard that all flights into Israel have been canceled.
God forbid that I would have been part of the mocking, angry mob.
Yet Jesus died for the ungodly while we were yet His enemies. I'm so thankful for His grace.
Romans 5:6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! 11 Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
I pretty much focus on the presence of Jesus and His words at that moment. It’s calming.
The Babylon Bee recently did an article on this, saying at that point, Jesus had the first mic drop✌🏼🫶☺️
Can you imagine the uproar that caused in Synagogue? He declared himself God to all the men who believed they had something to do with their own salvation. The self-righteous indignation and outrage would have been fun to watch but unfortunately it turned them into men of violence.
They thought well of Him, until He said the next things. Then:
And all the people in the synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things; and they got up and drove Him out of the city, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city had been built, in order to throw Him down the cliff. But passing through their midst, He went His way.
— Luke 4:28-30
For the time had not yet come for Jesus to fulfill His purpose of dying on the cross to redeem us from our sins. That day had been set since before the foundation of the world and it had to take place during Passover so that The Passover Lamb could be sacrificed.
Robin, it is supremely comforting to me (and amazing) that it all happened according to God’s timeline, not man’s. He would merely slip away or disappear from their sight. Until it was time.
Strengthens our faith to know God is in control now as He was then!
And we are back in Isaiah again today as Jesus was reading from Isaiah. ❤️
Pregnant women are told not to smoke, drink, eat certain foods, or even change kitty litter.
But shooting toxic "vaccines" into their bodies are OK.
As I commented to Jeff, thank you for using the refreshingly accurate term 'pregnant women '! 🩷
I must have read the term 'pregnant *people*' dozens of times recently in articles, from news sources to medical sources! 🙄
What a 🤡 world this country has become! 🤬
Now go look at midwifery school websites. There aren't many but I think only 1 remains that didn't cave to the word police. That change happened in 2015ish? La Leche league was first to go after a lawsuit in Canada in 2011.
Yup… don’t change the kitty litter and don’t eat tuna (because of trace amounts of mercury).
But never tried before bio weapons that are packaged in mercury, aluminum and formaldehyde… No problem
Bingo!
They used to caution against it. But about ten years ago, they changed the angle to "pregnant women are especially vulnerable to infections, so they and their babies need to be 'protected'," without even acknowledging possible adverse effects.
They learned nothing from Thalidomide and DES.
Well, yeah, else we’ll never know how “safe and effective” the jab is for pregnant people…Duh.
All vaccines have the risk of fever. Maternal fever is a known cause of birth defects. I cannot understand why anyone would take that risk. I can’t imagine how much $ pharma must be throwing at ACOG.
Yea, they told me not to even take Sudafed.
We still have J6ers as political prisoners.
You mean the elite fighting force that came within a hare's breath of overthrowing the US government armed with nothing but cell phones and straws?
Ding ding ding 🛎🛎🛎 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻
Kathleen...If you're available come to Huntsville, AL on 8/24. Part of the all day Patriots Unite & Push event is a screening of the movie "Let My People Go". Professor David Clements will screen his movie, discuss J6 and the J6 prisoners, discuss election integrity and have a Q&A.
Many wrongly believe the J6'ers are now all free because of SCOTUS decision.

Thank you for the humor:
"You couldn’t get me near an RSV shot even if you offered me a free ticket to Fauci’s sentencing hearing. Tempting, but hard pass."
But Jeff needs to know the government of Florida is still pushing this stuff. Got this today from Sarasota County:
"DOH Sarasota back-to-school immunization clinics
The Florida Department of Health in Sarasota County (DOH Sarasota) is slated to host a back-to-school immunization clinic. All required immunizations for entry into school will be offered. Each child must be registered in Florida Shots and parents must bring each of their children’s birth certificates and their valid ID.
Upcoming back-to-school immunizations clinics:
Saturday, Aug. 3, from 8 a.m. to noon, at DOH Sarasota's Ringling Immunizations Clinic, located at 2200 Ringling Blvd., Sarasota. Click here for more information.
Sunday, Aug. 4, from 8 a.m. to noon, at DOH Sarasota's North Port Immunizations Clinic, located at 6950 Outreach Way, North Port. Click here for more information.

I went to the link where you need to register, https://rwces.floridahealth.gov/Immunization/ImmunizationForm, look at the information they are collecting:
CHILD AND ADULT SCREENING: Please mark if any of the following apply today to the client to be seen.
Client has fever or is sick today.
Client has allergies to medications, food, latex or vaccine.
Client has had a serious reaction to a vaccine in the past.
Client has had chicken pox.
Client has received vaccinations in the past four weeks.
Client has had seizures or any other brain problem.
Client is pregnant or could become pregnant in the next month.
Client has cancer, leukemia, HIV/AIDS or other immune problem.
Client has received a transfusion of blood or blood products, or immune (gamma) globulin in the past year.
Client has had prednisone, steroids, anticancer drugs or radiation treatments in the past three months.
Client has asthma or smokes cigarettes.
Interesting. I wonder if they still give the vaccine to the kid that shows up with a fever?
I wonder what they’d do if someone checked all of those? 🤔😆
And I would like to see some way of shutting this propaganda and pressure down. Maybe a mass letter campaign to Ladapo??
I am not sure.
But here in Sarasota, our public hospital refuses to put Ladapo's Covid 19 vaccine recommendations on their website. They don't agree with it.
https://www.wusf.org/health-news-florida/2024-05-22/sarasota-hospital-board-not-endorse-ladapo-covid-19-vaccine-claims
Regarding mass letter campaigns, not sure if they are helpful, since no one has to listen to the State Surgeon General anyway.
But a good issue to go after is the Day 1 vaccine - Hep B. No one can really defend that part of the vaccine schedule. What are they doing with the toddlers in pre-school that they are worried about them getting Hep B?
I’m not in Florida so can’t help much there but I would like to see these dominoes start falling. Funny, the hospitals and schools slavishly went along with the state health department and their recommendations on masks, social distancing and so on during Covid, saying they “had” to but conveniently decide to ignore them when it doesn’t suit them 🙄 I guess they must be following only the CDC now. Also funny how they seem to like following the directives when they can make money on them 😑
Could not agree more about HepB, neither of my kids got that and I think it’s especially stupid to recommend, let alone require, HepB shots at birth 😡
Ok, I know it’s a serious topic, but did anyone else read “eight day mission” and hear “🎶a three hour tour, a three hour tour🎶” in their heads? 🫣
Now, if only they had the professor and a coconut-powered radio...
@St. Alia the Knife perfect 😂
That is a very generational cultural reference! But I did, yes.
Used to play a “Gilligans Island” Board game with my daughter over and over. And over again. Ah, the memories.
I must have watched those reruns 1000 times when I was a kid (sighs with nostalgia).
We actually bought the series on DVD along with the Brady Bunch for our kids when they were young, they loved both.
When my kids were young, we watched the 60’s old sitcoms and a few drama shows, “The Fugitive” and “Combat.” The my kids would come home from school complaining they knew nothing about the current TV shows their classmates talked about. Made my husband and I happy they were missing the current culture.
I loved watching those reruns at my grandma’s house across the street ❤️
I used to sing the theme song while playing in the pool.
Sit right back and you’ll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip..
Ah, the age old question: Ginger or Maryanne!
Hah! We just revisited this discussion last weekend while we sat around the family fire pit! My husband insists, he is a Maryanne Man but I remind him that he married a woman with ginger hair :)
😁
No but now I'll sing it all day, LOL!
I didn't until you brought it up...thanks 😂
🤣🤣🤣❤️.
Was Joe Biden freed from Jill as part of the prisoners swap?
I will change the names in one of my favorite jokes...
Biden is walking down the steps of AF1 carrying two miniature pigs, one under each arm. The Marine at the bottom says "Welcome home sir. What's with the pigs?" To which Biden responds "I got one for Jill and one for Hunter." The Marine says "Sounds like a good trade sir."
🤣 The joke should permanently change to your version. Lol Even 50 years from now THAT will be funny
Hope you don't mind, but I shared your joke on my Fakebook feed. I gave you credit. It's hilarious. 😂
You mean "Doctor" Jill?🙄

You win 🤣
MRNA stock peaked three years ago at $497. The government has recently given them about $176 million to develop mRNA based injections for birdy flew. So, despite flagging sales, they are being funded to continue to be a factor in the mRNA arena.
You have to wonder what the next fake pandemic will look like. RSV becomes CoV-3? Birdy flew lockdowns? A worldwide emergency of some sort declared by WHO and the UN? Beware, the globalists still want billions of humans erased from the planet. No politician is gonna save us.
So there are already plans for the bird flu pandemic and the psychopaths are meeting in DC on October 2-4 to discuss the mass casualties. They even have a website to put it all out there! So I guess it’s all up to us to ignore this next round of BS!
I wonder if there really is a bird flu or if it’s 5G being released into the air and if that maybe causes killer flu symptoms for those that took the unsafe and ineffective shot … 🤷♀️
It is all part of the FDA's "future framework" paradigm. They want the platform so they can develop and deploy "vaccines" in record time by just changing the payload. Little to no testing required and the money train keeps on rolling!
Keep your ears tuned to developing news if another pandemic hits. Those of us who have sworn off vaccines, prescription drugs, etc may be the victims if the next plandemic release DOES require a vax or an antidote. That way those pesky citizens who stand up against big pharma will be the ones to go and the sheep who will take any big pharma product will survive (just what the deep state want). So keep your eyes and ears sharp for developments in the next big pharma scam.
The ones who ingest the poison will also go. We who will not will be herded into the concentration camps, for the public good, of course.
One of my friends in another state asked if we could request to be in the same camp together. 😉
When we are, we'll be in stellar company!!! 🤩
It’s a good thought. It always seemed a little stupid to me to kill off the malleable.
Not so. When presented with accurate facts, a proven safe medical intervention, and informed choices, we as an informed populace will make wise choices.
You are assuming the government will give accurate information when to date they have lied consistently.
It will work ONLY if we allow it. Do. Not. Comply.
"avian flu" is their focus now. Remember, Redfield knew it too, and announced it on his departure 4 years ago. It made my blood curdle when he said it would be a 40% death rate.
I'm only guessing but if this is true it will likely be the immunocompromised, AKA, those who took the C shot.
OMG I hope they don't get that far. These people are monsters. We are all expendable to DARPA. 🤷♀️
Yes, we are all expendable to them.
They got my poor brother-in-law. Had a massive bleed in his chest and dropped dead suddenly and unexpectedly after a second Pfizer. Supposedly from thrombocytopenia, which of course he had never been diagnosed with before. I tried to talk him out of it but there was nothing I could do.
Oh, I'm really sorry to hear this. I have friends who took the shots and now have cancers, some have died. I have one daughter who took one shot because her employer said jab or job. She tells me, she hasn't felt properly healthy since then.
I have a lot of friends that tell me they haven't felt well since. Two of my good friends, again, I couldn't talk them out of it, both developed atrial fibrillation right after their shots. It's so sad. I live in Boston and I just went by St. Elizabeth's hospital and at the bus stop they have a big sign of a young black woman holding her beautiful baby that says here are the reasons why you should vaccinate... 🧐🤨😓
I’m so sorry 😞 Far too many stories like these 😢
Not only announced it....but announced it 4 times!
https://winepressnews.com/2024/06/18/former-cdc-director-robert-redfield-adamantly-warns-for-4th-time-we-will-have-a-bird-flu-pandemic-with-25-50-mortality/
That's an informative link. Thank you for sharing it. I remember when Redfield was leaving CDC, when Biden came in and appointed Wolinsky, I saw Redfield on the mainstream news on TV and he looked right in the camera and said you're all going to see that eventually that the covid was due to gain of function. And now he's been chanting. that's how we're going to get the avian flu pandemic. It's just disgusting.
They are trying real hard to whip up fear to get the coming Birdie VooDoo jab. I don’t hear anyone around me talking about it (all of them still nursing at the boobs of MSM). That might be a good thing.
I absolutely would not be surprised if bird flu somehow manages to shut down normal elections this year.
I've been thinking the whole year with Trump seriously looking like he'll win that there is no telling what the demorats will pull. We've already seen a lot this year. They are a cornered rabid animal. I do NOT doubt how far they will go to stay in power. I'm BEGGING God to let Trump win.
Another mRNA mandate will prop up sales, the stock price and all cause mortality.
A bird flu pandemic could surely help out the stock price of Moderna, no?!
Buddy flew. Lol
"You really don't hate the media nearly enough"........statement of the DECADE, Jeff! So much truth in SO few words!!!!!
Moderna should be out of business and the monsters behind it arrested and put on trial. Including "Doktor" Bill Gates.
Moderna is DoD.
