Dominion drops its billion-dollar war on Mike Lindell, an antifa cell draws 450 years for the ICE attack, and the DOJ's fraud blitz tops records — the greatest law-and-order era of our lifetimes.
Jeff is a white pill wonder. We must remain vigilant against the socialists who would start an unfathomable crime spree if they ever take power nationally, as they continue their long march through the cities. Hope the European World Cup fans channel their energy towards defending their homelands: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/european-world-cup-fans-letter
Jumping on to second this and recommend a few more channels that give great framing: Promethean Action (Susan Kokinda and Barbara Boyd), Rich Does Politics, and American Fire with Ace.
I appreciate Promethean Action so much and it's heartening to see young people getting involved in this conservative PAC. I donate when I am able and they have some very attractive, well made tee shirts which are imprinted with the Founding People of our Constitutional Republic (I chose the one with Alexander Hamilton on it because his economic policies are truly AMERICAN FIRST and almost buried over the past 100 years by the descent into socialism that was ushered in by Wilson and the British Imperialist monetary system.
Your comment is not exactly true. It gas specific international maritime traffic laws because of how narrow it gets between the territory of Iran and Oman. Do your research. Or listen to "what's up with shipping"...I got my info from a simple query but I am certain that it was explained on WUWS...Hell is in the details.
According to Britannica.com, the shipping lanes of the Strait of Hormuz are governed by international maritime law.
I copied the entry below from the Britannica website.
“Who controls the Strait of Hormuz?
The shipping lanes in the Strait of Hormuz are located primarily in Omani territorial waters, and partially in Iranian territorial waters, but they are governed by international maritime law and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Iran’s powerful naval force has the ability to exert a significant amount of control over the strait, as it has done during the 2026 Iran war. International forces have intervened in the past to guarantee safe passage, but the strait’s proximity to the Iranian coastline, and especially Iran’s naval bases and other military assets, gives Iran an advantage in dominating the strait.”
"International forces have intervened in the past"?
When? The Strait was open for the last 800 years of navigation, as far as I know. "International forces" is vague, and no timeline is given for the Britannica's claim.
Then the US and Israel attacked Iran, and the Strait was closed.
Every bad thing that has happened to Iran since the end of WW2, the wars, the dictators, the oppression, the invasions, the Mullahs, the droughts, has all been orchestrated and manipulated by City of London, using their private military attack dogs, the U.S.
All because Iran kicked British Petroleum out of Iranian oil fields after WW2. So City of London, the financial headquarters of the Evil, had the U.S. overthrow that Iranian government and gave Iraq everything it needed to invade Iran. Forcing decades of war and oppression onto the Iranian people.
British Petroleum is coming for Iranian oil. And when the Iranians started building weapons, Trump imposed sanctions on them.
And when they persisted Trump bombed them.
And then Trump attacked Iran.
Larry Johnson did a good outline (obviously written before the war) titled:
"Iran Does Not Hate Americans… But it Has Legitimate Reasons to Do So"
You take the Bill Clinton type response of what the meaning of is …is.
You refuse to accept the 99.99 % definition that these are international waters for rights of navigation. You accept the 0.01% analysis in your own mind that because these waters lie off the coast of Iran and Oman they are their territorial waters. Can never win an argument with that type of logic.
Neither Iran nor the US has ratified the Law of the Sea.
Even if they had, the only right ships have is for peaceful transit. In the middle of a war started by an unprovoked attack during negotiations, are you saying that Iran had no right to shut down the Strait?
The US was using it to transport weapons to its GCC bases that it was using to kill Iranians and destroy their infrastructure.
Are you seriously saying that they had no right to shut it?
If it was America being attacked and the attacker was using the San Luis pass to transport weapons, would your answer be the same?
That is what guns are for. Commit a crime and I will shoot you. Simple. Effective. Easy. And if done on my property, I will shoot you dead, like a doornail.
“Yes, the Castle Doctrine is still in effect in Florida. It is codified in Florida Statute 776.013, which allows individuals to use force, including deadly force, to defend themselves in their homes, temporary residences, or occupied vehicles without any obligation to retreat first
. This law presumes that a person reasonably fears for their life if someone unlawfully and forcibly enters their dwelling.”
Fraud steals the money I work hard for. Fraud steals money out of our pockets. You want to steal and in the millions, best you exit stage left. We can offer them MAID service as opposed to something quicker. You want to be nice to them and offer them cushy jail accomodations with rec time and tv, thats on you.
Rapes/murders/SRA crimes/gang members that distribute drugs and kill, the list goes on. Yup, give them death. Don't want to pay to keep them alive for years on my tax dollars. If you want to, knock yourself out.
Depends on the number of misdemeanors and the gravity of the crime. Most could be given a break.
Interesting thought, and hopefull it is true that the folks take the good/freedom they see here to heart and turn it to action back home! An unlikely source of activating dormant patriotism.
Exactly. Hopefully enough of the voting populace have broken through into the freedom side of the politically unacceptable outer limits of the Overton window. We need more Americans willing to break their own window glass of political politeness before the 2028 election. We’ve had enough exposure.
This is great news. We were all victims of the election rigging, and those Dominion machines were part of it. The lawfare was an attempt to silence and instill fear in those trying to expose it. I hope Lindell is the next Governor of Minnesota.
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous . . .”
"...what Jesus taught on that hillside wasn't meant for the crowd that day. It was meant for you right now. And the question is no longer whether you've heard his words, but whether you're ready to live them. H
He opened his mouth and began to teach them, saying, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." With that one sentence, Jesus overturned everything the world thought it knew about blessing. In that moment, Matthew 5:3, Jesus wasn't just giving comfort. He was redefining reality because the crowd that stood before him had lived under Roman oppression. They had been taught that blessing looked like wealth, status, or religious perfection. But Jesus looked at the broken, the outcast, the humble, and called them blessed. Not because of what they had, but because of who they were becoming.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, not the arrogant or self-sufficient, but those who recognize their deep need for God, the spiritually bankrupt, the ones who come to the throne not with trophies, but with empty hands. Jesus says that's where the kingdom begins. And then he continues, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4.
This isn't shallow sentiment. It's not keep your chin up. It's a divine invitation to feel, to weep over brokenness, sin, injustice, and to know that your tears are not wasted. Jesus promises comfort not by removing sorrow, but by walking into it with us.
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5. Now, this is where the crowd likely froze because meekness was not a virtue in that world or in ours. It sounded like weakness. But in Jesus' kingdom, meekness is controlled strength. It's the waror trained to move only at its master's command. It's having the power to retaliate and choosing instead to love." —Unknown
I used to struggle with the deep meaning of the Sermon on the Mount, Jayson--no longer though. As I approach my eternal life...it makes perfect sense as it speaks to our souls and not to our brains!
The meek shall inherit the earth sounds like a threat to me ! Being meek, will allow evil to take over the earth and then we would have to live with it!! Jesus wants us to be bold and strike down evil as soon as we see it
I struggle with this a great deal. On the one hand the activist journalist in me agrees completely, on the other, Luke 6 seems to say something different entirely and the stoic in me agrees with that:
———
The Beatitudes
20 Then He lifted up His eyes toward His disciples, and said:
“Blessed are you poor,
For yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are you who hunger now,
For you shall be filled.[e]
Blessed are you who weep now,
For you shall laugh.
22 Blessed are you when men hate you,
And when they exclude you,
And revile you, and cast out your name as evil,
For the Son of Man’s sake.
23 Rejoice in that day and leap for joy!
For indeed your reward is great in heaven,
For in like manner their fathers did to the prophets.
Jesus Pronounces Woes
24 “But woe to you who are rich,
For you have received your consolation.
25 Woe to you who are full,
For you shall hunger.
Woe to you who laugh now,
For you shall mourn and weep.
26 Woe [f]to you when [g]all men speak well of you,
For so did their fathers to the false prophets.
Love Your Enemies
27 “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. 29 To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. 30 Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. 31 And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.
32 “But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. 35 But love your enemies, do good, and lend, [h]hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. 36 Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.
“All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations..." Matt. 28
Dominion over the world was given to the First Adam who, believing the lie, submitted his authority to Satan's word. Through His life and sacrifice, the Second Adam redeemed mankind thus divesting Satan of authority both in heaven and on earth; and seeing "Satan fall like lightning from heaven" (Lk 10:18), Jesus declared that "ALL authority has been given to Me"... both in heaven and ON earth.
The world IS our home. Satan is simply a squatter to be evicted by the body of Christ on earth.
Jesus never taught that we be complicit toward lawlessness and evil. Judge rightly. Do not accept bribes. Show no favoritism. Hear the cases of the poor. And when lawless men abound fight to expose their evil deeds.
Maybe “meek” shouldn’t be interpreted as complacency and submission. Tri is right, it’s controlled strength, but he’s wrong that it’s only choosing not to retaliate. He nailed it with “trained to only move at its master’s command.” We will fight and retaliate when God makes it clear that it is time to.
Exactly. Jesus was not promoting "meek" men, such as most would understand the meaning of meek today. Brings to mind all the young "soy boys" I see these days that parade around like peacocks and wilt at the first hint of a real challenge.
Jesus was the epitome of a "meek" man. He cleansed His Temple with righteous strength and He challenged the god-image of Caesar on the Roman coinage which was treason and sedition under Roman law and said "give unto God those things that belong to God" thus plainly stating that Caesar was NOT god thus earning for Himself a Roman death sentence. Jesus then marched willingly as the Son of God to His death on a Roman cross to ransom repentant mankind from the penalty of breaking God's Law-Word.
Meek is not weak! American Christian culture, literature and film used to be replete with examples of "meek" men who had great strength and fortitude, men who were gentle and hard as iron. Even in my lifetime, the John Wayne's and Clint Eastwood's of the era portrayed the kind of men who were both gentle and strong.
The point is that such men are motivated by righteousness, hate evil and enforce with strength what is good and just.
Although our dictionaries like to tie it to “submissive”, and I’m not sure that’s the correct definition. Maybe submissive to God, but not to just any man. I feel as if it became that on purpose by those who wished to exploit it.
Well, in the meantime, those sick twists that are performing SRA on infants and drinking their blood, law enforcement is being mowed down, America haters are destroying our country while we wait for the signal, gangs are raping and pillaging and the list goes on. I opt for proactive with due respect to God.
The meaning of ‘meek’ in Greek is ‘strength under control’ or “praus”. In Hebrew ‘meek’ is translated as ‘controlled strength’ or “anaw” which is a humble and gentle spirit w/ total dependence on God. These are the meanings from the original, source Scriptures and were well understood by 1st century followers of the Way. The translation to English in Middle Ages has distorted the interpretation, unfortunately.
You might be interested to check out 14th century Christian mystic, Julian of Norwich. She was what we call a hermit who wrote of seeing the entire universe contained within a small hazelnut in the palm of her hand. Her writings illustrate how spiritual gentleness and trust allow the soul to "inherit" the earth by beholding the cosmos's absolute dependence on God's love.
Yes, 'controlled strength', 'strength under control' and the opposite of 'out of control' mobs that draw attention to themselves, as we saw with the BLM and ANTIFA, and gang activities, since the decade began. Law biding citizens did not rush to take up arms, they remained in control, watched and learned. We controlled our emotions, bided our time and 'Voted' for our chosen human leader to shepherd us out of the latest turning of Sodom and Gamora.
I often wonder if Jesus was inferring that all things are cyclical. Tyrannical leaders and their minions will come and go, but we must remain calm and not become a target. We do ourselves and our children, our souls no good by getting ourselves drawn into the corruption and other evil doings.
Anyone who studies history and human nature can decipher patterns that occur with human overcrowding, as seen in cities. The gentle, patient agrarian shepherd who does not join in the fraud and gluttony, but carries on, steady and focused shall prosper in natural ways and in the hereafter.
When Jesus spoke of the meek inheriting the earth, I believe he was talking about a future time when He will reign and King, and all criminals will be dealt with with a rod of iron. it will be a time of peace the world has yet to experience.
It is my understanding that those who inherit the earth to be with Christ when He reigns will not be with those who were unrepentant criminals. Those who did not chose Christ will have already been dealt with.
Damn right. That is what guns are for. You don't act meek and let demons, commies, socialists, SRAers and other evil just plop down in your country or living room. Hell NO.
In this context, "meek" does not mean "weak", or "docile" or easily intimidated. It means disciplined, with self-control, and humbleness (the opposite of vain pride). One can be meek, and at the same time a complete BADASS. For example, St. Joseph is also known as "The Terror of Demons". St. Mary is the also known as "Queen of Heaven". With her humility and humble heart (meekness), she is perhaps the most profound threat against evil among any human who has ever and will ever live.
I will have a gun in my hand while I weep over brokenness and sin. Anyone that lets evil willy nilly come on down and do nothing, you get what you deserve.
Yes Janice, we know this. Not all evil will be conquered, nor darkness however. And we don't just sit around and let evil take over. The adage, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
Everything is shifted in His Kingdom. If you want to have, give (Luke 6:38). If you want to be first, be last (Mark 10:31). If you want to be exalted, humble yourself (1 Peter 5:6). If you want to live, die (Romans 8:13). Our earthbound minds see this as all backwards because Jesus confounds the wise and turns earthly wisdom on its ear (1 Corinthians 3:19-20). Hallelujah, we can trust Him to do what He promises even when it doesn’t make sense to us (Hebrews 10:23).
Mine too!!!!! It had to be the Holy Spirit in her for her to forgive her former enemies.
(But it just occurred to me. It was not until that guard had asked God for forgiveness that she was able to forgive him……so, I wonder. Does the enemy have to repent to God first, before we can forgive them? I had never had that thought before.)
He draws all men to Himself (John 3:16; John 12:32), and all are His creation, but not all are His children until they repent and surrender to Christ (1 John 3:10). There are two kinds of people in the world: Children of God and children of the devil.
Better you than me. A demon in a skin suit that can drink an infant's blood after slitting the infant's throat for the high of the adenochrome is not who I would ever pray for. There are some evils that are too far gone.
Praying for God to intervene or save someone does not mean I approve of their sin or plan on sitting there when attacked. 🤦🏻♀️ We are certainly supposed to combat evil! But I can say a prayer for their soul. Y’all are parsing my words and it’s silly.
I cretainly agree with the scripture, but we must remember that Jesus specifically aimed it at interpersonal , me to you and you to me relations. Apostle Paul (Romans 13:1-4) admonished us to respect government who carries the sword. When our government acts in honest, honorable way to "carry out God's wrath on the wrongdoer". We must appreciate and commend it.
So when someone is coming into your home to rape your child, should we wait for God to intervene at that moment or take action? God would want us to take action and stop the crime. That was then, this is now and there is more evil that we are dealing with. Hate the enemy works for me.
But, Christ was unfairly crucified for being a pacifist. We could have turned the other cheek with Hitler, or Bin Laden but we couldn’t in good conscience do that. There are good causes worth fighting for; if the pen is mightier than the sword to persuade us, it should be neutral in its assessments. (Haha).
You can be kind to animals, kind to the paperboy, kind to every stranger who crosses your path. But kindness to strangers is not the measure of our character. Kindness at home is the real test.
Because strangers don't carry our history, and strangers don't activate our wounds, and strangers don't mirror back the parts of us that we've avoided for years. Our spouse does. Our children do. Our home does.
And here's the uncomfortable truth that most people dodge. If all of your graciousness is saved for strangers, that's not kindness. That is image management.
The real measure of who we are isn't the polite smile that we give to the grocery clerk. It's the tone we use with the partner who loves us. It's the patience we offer when our children are overwhelmed. It's the softness we choose on the days our egos want to snap.
Because marriages don't typically collapse from one major betrayal. They erode slowly from daily neglect, from casual disrespect, from the slow leak of everyday unkindness and indifference. Kindness to strangers might make people like you. Kindness to your spouse makes you trustworthy.
Kindness to strangers creates an image. Kindness at home creates a person of character.
And if we are kind everywhere except our own house, that's not kindness. That's performance. That is image management dressed up as Virtue.
The 8 members of "an idea" that got convicted and sentenced to prison need to also be charged by the state of TX for attempted murder of their police officer so that the next dem Pres can't just pardon them all and let them out.
We could fix the voting process by requiring voters to understand why the Constitution was supposed to restrain the government. (Legal) immigrants must pass a citizenship test to become citizens so why do we allow people who have no understanding of the Constitution to vote? (Some states will never do this since they might not like the results.)
Furthermore, if a person is not a taxpayer, or worse – someone who sucks off the government teat rather than contributes, isn’t that a conflict of interest to be able to vote? That person (and many rounded up by community organizers) should not be able to vote for my taxes to go up when they won’t be paying in. How is that not a conflict?
Social security is a savings program for retirement. Funded 50/50 by employees and employers through FICA withholding. Only $184,500 of income is applied to Social
security so the big income people stop contributing after that figure is reached. We could easily fund SS if we simply lifted the cap. By the way, Medicare deductions have no cap.
But we have no choice not to pay into it. If we were truly a free people, we would have the choice to opt out but it's basically a ponzi scheme so we get no choice to opt out. And, as my article explained, if you took the $2,480.00/year of social security taxes taken out of a paycheck based on 40K for forty years - which is below the average annual salary - after 40 years @ 10% which is average investment, you would have around 1.2 million dollars, earning 50K in dividends a year (more than the 40K salary). But we are forced to pay into SS. How can we claim to be free Americans when we don't get a choice how to invest our own money?
The Founders created a system where only those who actually owned land in the USA had the voting rights! They thought through the consequences and the unintended consequences of giving every citizen the vote, but discovered that it would eventually result in non-landowners' voting themselves largess from the purse of the landowners!
I believe it was Congress, decades on that decided to use the Vote to enable renters to steal from the farmers, homeowners, business owners, etc.
Ok, this is not in any way to diminish what the Antifa terrorists did or were convicted of. But please don’t use the term assault weapon. It is a made up term by the anti gun left and if you use the term assault weapon, it gives it credibility. There is no specific definition for the term. You referenced .556 caliber bullets which is one caliber used by AR-15 semiautomatic rifles which are legal and widely owned in the USA. The anti gun left would like to make that rifle illegal. Don’t feed into that narrative. The anti gun left defines any gun that looks scary as an assault weapon. Automatic weapons are already illegal save massive regulatory requirements and those guns might be more appropriately called assault weapons.
AR is short for Armalite Rifle which is a brand name. NOT assault rifle.
Yes. If you’re going to have “assault rifles” then you also need “defense rifles”. Can an “assault rifle” be used for defense? What happens if the tide of a battle turns and the assailant becomes the defender and vice-versa? Do they change weapons?
Does the intent of the carrier define the function or the legal classification of a firearm? What if the intent is to just enjoy shooting? Does the “assault rifle” magically become a “sporting rifle”?
Exactly! What does "assault 5.56 caliber rounds" really mean? Are these different from the completely legal "regular" 5.56 rounds? I was disappointed in today's article and the usage of terms that are known to be inflammatory and complete BS. JMO.
I hear Europe is experiencing record heat as well, 100+ F. Your 90's are headed my way the first of the week. But first I am under a flood watch the next two days. I already had a gullywasher yesterday evening in a popup severe storm.
Here in Florida, one doesn’t need to install an expensive sauna in the home, one just needs to walk out the front door. 😂🤣😂 It’s incredibly hot & humid here.
During the summer of 2021, I was going back and forth to PHX. That year the PNW experienced a "heat dome" for a week or so, during which time we broke temperature records 4 days in a row. It was 114 degrees at my house on that hottest 4th day. When I flew back to PHX 6 weeks later, it was 114 degrees, and the difference between dry heat and the humid heat was quite something to experience. For the record, both are just too doggone hot!! 😂🤣
I remember that heat wave too, Knife. It was perhaps last year or the year prior that the burnt / singed rhododendron leaves in my yard from that heat dome finally disappeared. The plant life in PNW kept reminding us of what had been.
Amazing June we have had. Literally high 60s to low 70s almost every day. In 20 years we have never had a season where we didn’t swim once in our pool before July-but here we are!
Yep, forecast all next week is mid 90s high and it never gets a low beneath 74. Going straight from March to August in one week. 😂🤣
Here in south central Pennsylvania, living between two mountain ranges, even on the hottest days of summer in the 90's, by morning it is down to a cool 70 degrees.
There's something to be said about sleeping on the ground floor in summer.
Come to Michigan, it's a "pleasant peninsula"! Been in 70's in day, 60's at night (best sleeping weather) and all the storms have been worn out by time they cross the lakes. (Of course i just jinxked myself, probably be double digits next week ! ;)
There are some cool —pun intended— homemade AC units on sites like INSTRUCTIBLES. We made one for the barn several years ago. I seem to remember a small styrofoam cooler, ice, a small copper pipe and some sort of battery operated fan? Duct tape was involved as well. Copper and ice together, really pack a punch.
When our AC was out for a couple of days, we slept with shallow dishes (sheet cake/casserole sized) filled with ice, and fans blowing over/across them. The shallow aspect was so the fans weren’t blowing onto the side of a bowl, but rather, blowing directly over and onto piled ice. It was not a replacement for AC but it did help.
A Moscow Mule in a real copper cup is a wonderful, cooling thing, and if you have enough of them, you won’t care whether or not you have AC. 😜
KC, I had to laugh - we moved to Denver at the start of a 45-day heat wave. Our bedroom was on the top floor, with the afternoon sun pouring in the one window. No A/C. The Mr. rigged a fan-and-ice combo at the foot of the bed on moving boxes and I soaked large bath towels in cold water in the tub, then draped them over us for the evaporative effect from the fan. We had to get up and re-soak the towels a couple of times each night, but we got through it. Ah, young newlyweds, living on love and not much else!!
Mrs. "the Knife"
P.S. Everyone in Denver was complaining how humid it was, but coming from the PNW, we found it was too dry, as we were experiencing dry, brittle hair and nails, and nosebleeds! One's perspective is just that to which one is acclimated!
They still make them and they are better and cheaper to maintain and run than isa standard air conditioning unit! They are a must in certain inland areas of California! Even little town hardware stores stock the woven thatch replacement mats. We call it 'poor mans' air conditioning!
• The inside of the fridge gets cold because the fridge pulls heat out of the food and air inside and pushes that heat out the back (you can feel the warm air coming from the coils behind it). A heat pump works exactly the same way — just bigger, and it can run in both directions.
You would be better to install an Evaporative Cooling Unit, or Swamp Cooler! They are far less expensive to operate and create just enough humidity to keep the sinuses clear and moist. Also, you can keep a few windows open and here the birds and the kids frolicking outside!
I, for one, am THRILLED that the DOJ is finally using computer work to find fraud before the check goes out. Why haven’t they been doing this for years?
Also, I have a client who works for the IRS in IT supporting their original legacy system, their original computer system, from like 1955 or something. She’s been telling me that they’re working on integrating the data now into their current systems, and again, I think…shouldn’t this have been done years ago?
Large organizations move slowly, for the most part, when it comes to technology. And the Government even more so. Congress doles out the $$, remember? Why vote to spend money on updating IT systems for government agencies when you can use that money for your favourite pokk-laden bill?
One of the most destructive weapons an authoritarian regime can use is putting the full weight of the government on subversives. Usually these people are put on a list, a list of opposition that are to be harassed. Tyranny cannot exist without lists of subversives, just look at the January 6ers!
From the beginning Lindell had a big target on his back. This common sense pillow salesman was cancelled, picked up by the FBI, sued, harassed, all weapons used by the tyrant.
America was always a place where the average person could count on the police, the justice system, a government that protected your freedoms and your property. This was a constant until the Marxist Communists infiltrated our institutions one by one. The vast majority of Americans want stability. They don’t want to close prisons, get rid of the police, let millions of unvetted illegals flood into America. Tyrants want chaos, it’s a weapon they use that allows them to clamp down on their political opponents. Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, Alejandro Mayorkas, Dr. Fauci, Christopher Wray, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, what a team of corruption!!
This is why we have rogue leftwing (Marxist) activist judges stopping Trump from restricting illegals from voting. The thing is this is already illegal, Trump is just doubling down on only allowing actual citizens to vote. These communist ideas are not wanted by the average democrat, republican or unenrolled voter. The only way they can win is by stealing elections. This is why F’n Thune must do his F’n job and get the votes to pass the Save Act. The Save Act isn’t perfect but it’s a good start.
Thune never will. It’s maddening that so many of us spend our words and influence to appeal that he do. It’s wasting time. We need to be focused on the truth about him and get him pushed out, stat!
I know you know Trump is trying to pressure him. He needs to eventually get, I believe, 5 senators to require a vote to force Thune out. Again though we’re wasting time with this bum!
The shadow government that still thinks it runs the world has deep roots in the CIA and MI6. Politicians that aren't on board are either among them, are being extorted by them, or are simpletons who don't even realize they've been coopted by their ideology, which itself was crafted and curated by the same deep-state shadow government.
So right, James. Thune is not only a traitor to America by allowing illegal aliens from all over the world the chance to vote in our elections and alter the course of history in our nation, Thune, by doing so is committing treason by giving these illegal aliens, through their illegal votes, opportunities to basically overthrow the United States of America government.
And, the Democrats are complicit in this endeavor.
Clearly the NY Times editors and reporters require full scrutiny and surveillance due to their open sympathies and possible connections to ANTIFA and other Leftist Domestic Terror Groups
Thank you for this update Laura. I pray for him and his family. I have made donations. He is the strongest young man to endure all this. It makes me all the more enraged that those responsible have not been punished yet. Would you be so kind to post the link to the donation site?

I couldn’t agree with you more, Emily!! 👍
No mention of "international waters"?
Found some inaccurate reporting there such as the Strait of Hormuz is international waters.
Artificial MAGA site.
Your comment is not exactly true. It gas specific international maritime traffic laws because of how narrow it gets between the territory of Iran and Oman. Do your research. Or listen to "what's up with shipping"...I got my info from a simple query but I am certain that it was explained on WUWS...Hell is in the details.
According to Britannica.com, the shipping lanes of the Strait of Hormuz are governed by international maritime law.
I copied the entry below from the Britannica website.
“Who controls the Strait of Hormuz?
The shipping lanes in the Strait of Hormuz are located primarily in Omani territorial waters, and partially in Iranian territorial waters, but they are governed by international maritime law and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Iran’s powerful naval force has the ability to exert a significant amount of control over the strait, as it has done during the 2026 Iran war. International forces have intervened in the past to guarantee safe passage, but the strait’s proximity to the Iranian coastline, and especially Iran’s naval bases and other military assets, gives Iran an advantage in dominating the strait.”
"International forces have intervened in the past"?
When? The Strait was open for the last 800 years of navigation, as far as I know. "International forces" is vague, and no timeline is given for the Britannica's claim.
Then the US and Israel attacked Iran, and the Strait was closed.
A perfect example of FAFO.

Every bad thing that has happened to Iran since the end of WW2, the wars, the dictators, the oppression, the invasions, the Mullahs, the droughts, has all been orchestrated and manipulated by City of London, using their private military attack dogs, the U.S.
All because Iran kicked British Petroleum out of Iranian oil fields after WW2. So City of London, the financial headquarters of the Evil, had the U.S. overthrow that Iranian government and gave Iraq everything it needed to invade Iran. Forcing decades of war and oppression onto the Iranian people.
British Petroleum is coming for Iranian oil. And when the Iranians started building weapons, Trump imposed sanctions on them.
And when they persisted Trump bombed them.
And then Trump attacked Iran.
Larry Johnson did a good outline (obviously written before the war) titled:
"Iran Does Not Hate Americans… But it Has Legitimate Reasons to Do So"

The strait covers the territorial waters of Iran and Oman.
No international waters involved.
You take the Bill Clinton type response of what the meaning of is …is.
You refuse to accept the 99.99 % definition that these are international waters for rights of navigation. You accept the 0.01% analysis in your own mind that because these waters lie off the coast of Iran and Oman they are their territorial waters. Can never win an argument with that type of logic.
Neither Iran nor the US has ratified the Law of the Sea.
Even if they had, the only right ships have is for peaceful transit. In the middle of a war started by an unprovoked attack during negotiations, are you saying that Iran had no right to shut down the Strait?
The US was using it to transport weapons to its GCC bases that it was using to kill Iranians and destroy their infrastructure.
Are you seriously saying that they had no right to shut it?
If it was America being attacked and the attacker was using the San Luis pass to transport weapons, would your answer be the same?
Mrs. RW
As always, you are incorrect, when you are not actually delusional.
How so. See my recent post.
You need to take your own advice and read other's post.....about facts.
That is what guns are for. Commit a crime and I will shoot you. Simple. Effective. Easy. And if done on my property, I will shoot you dead, like a doornail.
Is the "castle doctrine" still in effect in Florida?
Yes, it is:
“Yes, the Castle Doctrine is still in effect in Florida. It is codified in Florida Statute 776.013, which allows individuals to use force, including deadly force, to defend themselves in their homes, temporary residences, or occupied vehicles without any obligation to retreat first
. This law presumes that a person reasonably fears for their life if someone unlawfully and forcibly enters their dwelling.”
No idea Roger. I think so but not sure. I am not in Florida.
misdemeanors or just felonies? fraud too?
Fraud steals the money I work hard for. Fraud steals money out of our pockets. You want to steal and in the millions, best you exit stage left. We can offer them MAID service as opposed to something quicker. You want to be nice to them and offer them cushy jail accomodations with rec time and tv, thats on you.
Rapes/murders/SRA crimes/gang members that distribute drugs and kill, the list goes on. Yup, give them death. Don't want to pay to keep them alive for years on my tax dollars. If you want to, knock yourself out.
Depends on the number of misdemeanors and the gravity of the crime. Most could be given a break.
Interesting thought, and hopefull it is true that the folks take the good/freedom they see here to heart and turn it to action back home! An unlikely source of activating dormant patriotism.

Great article Yuri!!
Exactly. Hopefully enough of the voting populace have broken through into the freedom side of the politically unacceptable outer limits of the Overton window. We need more Americans willing to break their own window glass of political politeness before the 2028 election. We’ve had enough exposure.
Shameless indeed. The C&C is major cause for celebration. ~ 1.5 years into the greatest
Presidentcy in the history of this Republic in the nic of time.
The fraudsters have been and continue to be outed, including their NGO's.
Crime is down, manufacturing is back. Oil is down gas following.
Starmer gone, time for Brits to reclaim their nation.
As others mention, Promethian action, has fully outed the City of London and its
stranglehold on this country.
Mike Lindell has prevailed, cost him 20 mil plus. He must be the next MN governor.
The machine co. Smartmatic has been sold. Lets hope the new owner is trustworthy.
This is great news. We were all victims of the election rigging, and those Dominion machines were part of it. The lawfare was an attempt to silence and instill fear in those trying to expose it. I hope Lindell is the next Governor of Minnesota.
Yay for Mike! He is a good man and I am so elated for him.

I think Barbara Boyd on Promethean Action must have read C&C before her comments just now about the Dominion machines.
If she had she would have given C&C a shoutout… I’ve heard her do that before. She’s amazing.

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous . . .”
— Jesus, Matthew 5:43-45
✝️✝️✝️
"...what Jesus taught on that hillside wasn't meant for the crowd that day. It was meant for you right now. And the question is no longer whether you've heard his words, but whether you're ready to live them. H
He opened his mouth and began to teach them, saying, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." With that one sentence, Jesus overturned everything the world thought it knew about blessing. In that moment, Matthew 5:3, Jesus wasn't just giving comfort. He was redefining reality because the crowd that stood before him had lived under Roman oppression. They had been taught that blessing looked like wealth, status, or religious perfection. But Jesus looked at the broken, the outcast, the humble, and called them blessed. Not because of what they had, but because of who they were becoming.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, not the arrogant or self-sufficient, but those who recognize their deep need for God, the spiritually bankrupt, the ones who come to the throne not with trophies, but with empty hands. Jesus says that's where the kingdom begins. And then he continues, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4.
This isn't shallow sentiment. It's not keep your chin up. It's a divine invitation to feel, to weep over brokenness, sin, injustice, and to know that your tears are not wasted. Jesus promises comfort not by removing sorrow, but by walking into it with us.
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5. Now, this is where the crowd likely froze because meekness was not a virtue in that world or in ours. It sounded like weakness. But in Jesus' kingdom, meekness is controlled strength. It's the waror trained to move only at its master's command. It's having the power to retaliate and choosing instead to love." —Unknown
I used to struggle with the deep meaning of the Sermon on the Mount, Jayson--no longer though. As I approach my eternal life...it makes perfect sense as it speaks to our souls and not to our brains!
The meek shall inherit the earth sounds like a threat to me ! Being meek, will allow evil to take over the earth and then we would have to live with it!! Jesus wants us to be bold and strike down evil as soon as we see it
I struggle with this a great deal. On the one hand the activist journalist in me agrees completely, on the other, Luke 6 seems to say something different entirely and the stoic in me agrees with that:
———
The Beatitudes
20 Then He lifted up His eyes toward His disciples, and said:
“Blessed are you poor,
For yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are you who hunger now,
For you shall be filled.[e]
Blessed are you who weep now,
For you shall laugh.
22 Blessed are you when men hate you,
And when they exclude you,
And revile you, and cast out your name as evil,
For the Son of Man’s sake.
23 Rejoice in that day and leap for joy!
For indeed your reward is great in heaven,
For in like manner their fathers did to the prophets.
Jesus Pronounces Woes
24 “But woe to you who are rich,
For you have received your consolation.
25 Woe to you who are full,
For you shall hunger.
Woe to you who laugh now,
For you shall mourn and weep.
26 Woe [f]to you when [g]all men speak well of you,
For so did their fathers to the false prophets.
Love Your Enemies
27 “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. 29 To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. 30 Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. 31 And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.
32 “But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. 35 But love your enemies, do good, and lend, [h]hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. 36 Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.
Same TriTorch . And Jesus laid down his life . This world is not our home 🙌
"The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell therein." Psalm 24
“All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations..." Matt. 28
Dominion over the world was given to the First Adam who, believing the lie, submitted his authority to Satan's word. Through His life and sacrifice, the Second Adam redeemed mankind thus divesting Satan of authority both in heaven and on earth; and seeing "Satan fall like lightning from heaven" (Lk 10:18), Jesus declared that "ALL authority has been given to Me"... both in heaven and ON earth.
The world IS our home. Satan is simply a squatter to be evicted by the body of Christ on earth.
Appreciate you Phil 🙏 but I’m more in the new heaven and a new earth camp .
And I’m so thankful for you, like-minded C&Cers, and righteous warriors like Mr Childers fighting the good fight 🙌
I think we agree …we are the light of the world , not meant to be hidden ☀️
That is a lot of tough stuff! I do pray for the lefty loonies though
Jesus never taught that we be complicit toward lawlessness and evil. Judge rightly. Do not accept bribes. Show no favoritism. Hear the cases of the poor. And when lawless men abound fight to expose their evil deeds.
Gotta read the whole book s.
👏👏👏👏
It’s right there in the book: “Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.”
Romans 12:9 NIV
Maybe “meek” shouldn’t be interpreted as complacency and submission. Tri is right, it’s controlled strength, but he’s wrong that it’s only choosing not to retaliate. He nailed it with “trained to only move at its master’s command.” We will fight and retaliate when God makes it clear that it is time to.
Also, isn’t meek the opposite of arrogant? Don’t be arrogant, submit to the Lord.
The word is also translated as “gentle.”
Exactly. Jesus was not promoting "meek" men, such as most would understand the meaning of meek today. Brings to mind all the young "soy boys" I see these days that parade around like peacocks and wilt at the first hint of a real challenge.
Jesus was the epitome of a "meek" man. He cleansed His Temple with righteous strength and He challenged the god-image of Caesar on the Roman coinage which was treason and sedition under Roman law and said "give unto God those things that belong to God" thus plainly stating that Caesar was NOT god thus earning for Himself a Roman death sentence. Jesus then marched willingly as the Son of God to His death on a Roman cross to ransom repentant mankind from the penalty of breaking God's Law-Word.
Meek is not weak! American Christian culture, literature and film used to be replete with examples of "meek" men who had great strength and fortitude, men who were gentle and hard as iron. Even in my lifetime, the John Wayne's and Clint Eastwood's of the era portrayed the kind of men who were both gentle and strong.
The point is that such men are motivated by righteousness, hate evil and enforce with strength what is good and just.
Dena, That was my thought. I interpret meek as being humble.
Yes. Not timid. Not weak.
Humble, patient, measured, non-reactive, calm.
Although our dictionaries like to tie it to “submissive”, and I’m not sure that’s the correct definition. Maybe submissive to God, but not to just any man. I feel as if it became that on purpose by those who wished to exploit it.
Thank you.
Precisely so. We might yet need a whip of cords to clean the temple.
Might?
Yes, well said.
Well, in the meantime, those sick twists that are performing SRA on infants and drinking their blood, law enforcement is being mowed down, America haters are destroying our country while we wait for the signal, gangs are raping and pillaging and the list goes on. I opt for proactive with due respect to God.
The meaning of ‘meek’ in Greek is ‘strength under control’ or “praus”. In Hebrew ‘meek’ is translated as ‘controlled strength’ or “anaw” which is a humble and gentle spirit w/ total dependence on God. These are the meanings from the original, source Scriptures and were well understood by 1st century followers of the Way. The translation to English in Middle Ages has distorted the interpretation, unfortunately.
Oh I like this explanation! Thanks
You might be interested to check out 14th century Christian mystic, Julian of Norwich. She was what we call a hermit who wrote of seeing the entire universe contained within a small hazelnut in the palm of her hand. Her writings illustrate how spiritual gentleness and trust allow the soul to "inherit" the earth by beholding the cosmos's absolute dependence on God's love.

https://julianofnorwich.org/
Yes, 'controlled strength', 'strength under control' and the opposite of 'out of control' mobs that draw attention to themselves, as we saw with the BLM and ANTIFA, and gang activities, since the decade began. Law biding citizens did not rush to take up arms, they remained in control, watched and learned. We controlled our emotions, bided our time and 'Voted' for our chosen human leader to shepherd us out of the latest turning of Sodom and Gamora.
I often wonder if Jesus was inferring that all things are cyclical. Tyrannical leaders and their minions will come and go, but we must remain calm and not become a target. We do ourselves and our children, our souls no good by getting ourselves drawn into the corruption and other evil doings.
Anyone who studies history and human nature can decipher patterns that occur with human overcrowding, as seen in cities. The gentle, patient agrarian shepherd who does not join in the fraud and gluttony, but carries on, steady and focused shall prosper in natural ways and in the hereafter.
When Jesus spoke of the meek inheriting the earth, I believe he was talking about a future time when He will reign and King, and all criminals will be dealt with with a rod of iron. it will be a time of peace the world has yet to experience.
And, in the meantime, praise President Trump and his band of Brothers and Sisters devoted to Truth, Justice, and the American Way.
I would say thank them not praise them. That is not for humans but reserved for the FATHER, the Great I AM.
New heavens and new earth.
It is my understanding that those who inherit the earth to be with Christ when He reigns will not be with those who were unrepentant criminals. Those who did not chose Christ will have already been dealt with.
Damn right. That is what guns are for. You don't act meek and let demons, commies, socialists, SRAers and other evil just plop down in your country or living room. Hell NO.
In this context, "meek" does not mean "weak", or "docile" or easily intimidated. It means disciplined, with self-control, and humbleness (the opposite of vain pride). One can be meek, and at the same time a complete BADASS. For example, St. Joseph is also known as "The Terror of Demons". St. Mary is the also known as "Queen of Heaven". With her humility and humble heart (meekness), she is perhaps the most profound threat against evil among any human who has ever and will ever live.
You do mean, don’t you, that it wasn’t ‘jUsT’ for those on that hillside that day, but for everyone for all time and eternity……..correct?
Of course 👍
I’m very ‘literal’ 🥴
Whenever Chuck Norris says something ‘literally’,
reality then scrambles to align itself with whatever he said.
👀😂
I will have a gun in my hand while I weep over brokenness and sin. Anyone that lets evil willy nilly come on down and do nothing, you get what you deserve.
Jesus died to conquer evil, darkness, and death, both in our souls and in the world for eternity.
Yes Janice, we know this. Not all evil will be conquered, nor darkness however. And we don't just sit around and let evil take over. The adage, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
Think new earth as spoken of in Revelation 21.
Amen. Your post brought tears to my eyes with the profound words of Jesus reminding us to love.
Everything is shifted in His Kingdom. If you want to have, give (Luke 6:38). If you want to be first, be last (Mark 10:31). If you want to be exalted, humble yourself (1 Peter 5:6). If you want to live, die (Romans 8:13). Our earthbound minds see this as all backwards because Jesus confounds the wise and turns earthly wisdom on its ear (1 Corinthians 3:19-20). Hallelujah, we can trust Him to do what He promises even when it doesn’t make sense to us (Hebrews 10:23).
Love this Janice 🙌
“Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.“
Completely backwards! Upside down kingdom…a King who laid down his life .
“Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels?”
Won’t let me like but I do
I can only pray for my enemies when under the extreme influence of the Holy Spirit - (smile)!!.
As Corrie ten Boom said the “The Hiding Place”
Corrie is one of my FAITH HEROINES!
Mine too!!!!! It had to be the Holy Spirit in her for her to forgive her former enemies.
(But it just occurred to me. It was not until that guard had asked God for forgiveness that she was able to forgive him……so, I wonder. Does the enemy have to repent to God first, before we can forgive them? I had never had that thought before.)
Double the forgiveness and repentance is always Godly "C"--I believe you're 'spot on' about this new take on 'loving our enemies'.
Better you than me.
Amen amen. We must pray, God want ALL OF HIS CHILDREN, and as evil as some of them are, no one is beyond the reach of GOD.
He draws all men to Himself (John 3:16; John 12:32), and all are His creation, but not all are His children until they repent and surrender to Christ (1 John 3:10). There are two kinds of people in the world: Children of God and children of the devil.
Nope. You pray for those that commit SRA on infants and children? I will hunt them down and kill them instead.
Agreed, but I do pray that the Holy Spirit helps them see the evil of their ways
Better you than me. A demon in a skin suit that can drink an infant's blood after slitting the infant's throat for the high of the adenochrome is not who I would ever pray for. There are some evils that are too far gone.
Praying for God to intervene or save someone does not mean I approve of their sin or plan on sitting there when attacked. 🤦🏻♀️ We are certainly supposed to combat evil! But I can say a prayer for their soul. Y’all are parsing my words and it’s silly.
But He didn't say not to kick the money changers out of the temple!
I cretainly agree with the scripture, but we must remember that Jesus specifically aimed it at interpersonal , me to you and you to me relations. Apostle Paul (Romans 13:1-4) admonished us to respect government who carries the sword. When our government acts in honest, honorable way to "carry out God's wrath on the wrongdoer". We must appreciate and commend it.
So when someone is coming into your home to rape your child, should we wait for God to intervene at that moment or take action? God would want us to take action and stop the crime. That was then, this is now and there is more evil that we are dealing with. Hate the enemy works for me.
Definitely take action, which includes prayer.
Then you pray for evil and filth. Not me.
But, Christ was unfairly crucified for being a pacifist. We could have turned the other cheek with Hitler, or Bin Laden but we couldn’t in good conscience do that. There are good causes worth fighting for; if the pen is mightier than the sword to persuade us, it should be neutral in its assessments. (Haha).
As Corrie ten Boom said in “The Hiding Place”
Who Are You When You're At Home? By unknown
You can be kind to animals, kind to the paperboy, kind to every stranger who crosses your path. But kindness to strangers is not the measure of our character. Kindness at home is the real test.
Because strangers don't carry our history, and strangers don't activate our wounds, and strangers don't mirror back the parts of us that we've avoided for years. Our spouse does. Our children do. Our home does.
And here's the uncomfortable truth that most people dodge. If all of your graciousness is saved for strangers, that's not kindness. That is image management.
The real measure of who we are isn't the polite smile that we give to the grocery clerk. It's the tone we use with the partner who loves us. It's the patience we offer when our children are overwhelmed. It's the softness we choose on the days our egos want to snap.
Because marriages don't typically collapse from one major betrayal. They erode slowly from daily neglect, from casual disrespect, from the slow leak of everyday unkindness and indifference. Kindness to strangers might make people like you. Kindness to your spouse makes you trustworthy.
Kindness to strangers creates an image. Kindness at home creates a person of character.
And if we are kind everywhere except our own house, that's not kindness. That's performance. That is image management dressed up as Virtue.
❤️🙌❤️
You have, unfortunately, described my father.
My FIL would show kindness to strangers over his own family.
I agree.
True kindness begins at home.
Excellent post TriT!!! Will share with many! (Like button not working or it would be lit)
Amen!
The 8 members of "an idea" that got convicted and sentenced to prison need to also be charged by the state of TX for attempted murder of their police officer so that the next dem Pres can't just pardon them all and let them out.
I DO have a question. What, pray tell, is "military-grade first-aid kits"?
Is it filled with extra gauze pads? More tubes of antibiotics? The ability to carry it on a belt loop or chest pack?
Enquiring minds want to know.
That made me laugh. Good question.
I'll guess adding a tourniquet. Put in a thick strip of latex and charge double for the kit.
Mrs. RW
IV and morphine come to mind.
Super Glue! loads and loads of Super Glue!
Hehe😂 good question Justin.
Then best we make their lives so abominable in prison, they take Epsteins way out.
So who cares. Save taxpayers money on feeding the scum.
I care and yup, save our money by our ridding of them and hence not having to house and feed them.
Maybe morphine?
Along with IV supplies.
Great idea
State charges are pending.

We could fix the voting process by requiring voters to understand why the Constitution was supposed to restrain the government. (Legal) immigrants must pass a citizenship test to become citizens so why do we allow people who have no understanding of the Constitution to vote? (Some states will never do this since they might not like the results.)
Furthermore, if a person is not a taxpayer, or worse – someone who sucks off the government teat rather than contributes, isn’t that a conflict of interest to be able to vote? That person (and many rounded up by community organizers) should not be able to vote for my taxes to go up when they won’t be paying in. How is that not a conflict?
Very good points. If “ no taxation without representation” was important to the founders then what about “no representation without taxation”?
https://dispatchesfromheck.blogspot.com/2018/10/representation-without-taxation.html
One issue with SS is that we are not free to opt out of paying taxes for Social Security, medicare, welfare, etc. We are forced to pay up or else, unless we are members of a religious sect pre -1950, which on its face seems like discrimination against non-Amish: https://lizlasorte.substack.com/p/form-4029-the-application-for-exemption?r=76q58&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web
Social security is a savings program for retirement. Funded 50/50 by employees and employers through FICA withholding. Only $184,500 of income is applied to Social
security so the big income people stop contributing after that figure is reached. We could easily fund SS if we simply lifted the cap. By the way, Medicare deductions have no cap.
But we have no choice not to pay into it. If we were truly a free people, we would have the choice to opt out but it's basically a ponzi scheme so we get no choice to opt out. And, as my article explained, if you took the $2,480.00/year of social security taxes taken out of a paycheck based on 40K for forty years - which is below the average annual salary - after 40 years @ 10% which is average investment, you would have around 1.2 million dollars, earning 50K in dividends a year (more than the 40K salary). But we are forced to pay into SS. How can we claim to be free Americans when we don't get a choice how to invest our own money?
The Founders created a system where only those who actually owned land in the USA had the voting rights! They thought through the consequences and the unintended consequences of giving every citizen the vote, but discovered that it would eventually result in non-landowners' voting themselves largess from the purse of the landowners!
I believe it was Congress, decades on that decided to use the Vote to enable renters to steal from the farmers, homeowners, business owners, etc.
Or bribes elected officials like the Trotskyites?
Ok, this is not in any way to diminish what the Antifa terrorists did or were convicted of. But please don’t use the term assault weapon. It is a made up term by the anti gun left and if you use the term assault weapon, it gives it credibility. There is no specific definition for the term. You referenced .556 caliber bullets which is one caliber used by AR-15 semiautomatic rifles which are legal and widely owned in the USA. The anti gun left would like to make that rifle illegal. Don’t feed into that narrative. The anti gun left defines any gun that looks scary as an assault weapon. Automatic weapons are already illegal save massive regulatory requirements and those guns might be more appropriately called assault weapons.
AR is short for Armalite Rifle which is a brand name. NOT assault rifle.
Vaccines are assault weapons.
Yes. If you’re going to have “assault rifles” then you also need “defense rifles”. Can an “assault rifle” be used for defense? What happens if the tide of a battle turns and the assailant becomes the defender and vice-versa? Do they change weapons?
Does the intent of the carrier define the function or the legal classification of a firearm? What if the intent is to just enjoy shooting? Does the “assault rifle” magically become a “sporting rifle”?
Exactly! What does "assault 5.56 caliber rounds" really mean? Are these different from the completely legal "regular" 5.56 rounds? I was disappointed in today's article and the usage of terms that are known to be inflammatory and complete BS. JMO.
Good morning, C&C, from the beautiful Pacific Northwest, where it has been in the 90s for several days, and most of us are wishing we had A/C! 😂🤣

I hear Europe is experiencing record heat as well, 100+ F. Your 90's are headed my way the first of the week. But first I am under a flood watch the next two days. I already had a gullywasher yesterday evening in a popup severe storm.
Here in Florida, one doesn’t need to install an expensive sauna in the home, one just needs to walk out the front door. 😂🤣😂 It’s incredibly hot & humid here.
During the summer of 2021, I was going back and forth to PHX. That year the PNW experienced a "heat dome" for a week or so, during which time we broke temperature records 4 days in a row. It was 114 degrees at my house on that hottest 4th day. When I flew back to PHX 6 weeks later, it was 114 degrees, and the difference between dry heat and the humid heat was quite something to experience. For the record, both are just too doggone hot!! 😂🤣
Mrs. "the Knife"
I'm used to the dry heat. But shade is golden in the desert.
I remember that heat wave too, Knife. It was perhaps last year or the year prior that the burnt / singed rhododendron leaves in my yard from that heat dome finally disappeared. The plant life in PNW kept reminding us of what had been.
Same in Oklahoma - steambath
Amazing June we have had. Literally high 60s to low 70s almost every day. In 20 years we have never had a season where we didn’t swim once in our pool before July-but here we are!
Yep, forecast all next week is mid 90s high and it never gets a low beneath 74. Going straight from March to August in one week. 😂🤣
Here in south central Pennsylvania, living between two mountain ranges, even on the hottest days of summer in the 90's, by morning it is down to a cool 70 degrees.
There's something to be said about sleeping on the ground floor in summer.
Dave, stay safe! Having been through a few floods, praying your home remains high and dry!
Mrs. "the Knife"
Stay dry 🙏🏻😍
Come to Michigan, it's a "pleasant peninsula"! Been in 70's in day, 60's at night (best sleeping weather) and all the storms have been worn out by time they cross the lakes. (Of course i just jinxked myself, probably be double digits next week ! ;)
Well, Europe is experiencing what Hell feels like since they welcomed it with open arms.
There are some cool —pun intended— homemade AC units on sites like INSTRUCTIBLES. We made one for the barn several years ago. I seem to remember a small styrofoam cooler, ice, a small copper pipe and some sort of battery operated fan? Duct tape was involved as well. Copper and ice together, really pack a punch.
When our AC was out for a couple of days, we slept with shallow dishes (sheet cake/casserole sized) filled with ice, and fans blowing over/across them. The shallow aspect was so the fans weren’t blowing onto the side of a bowl, but rather, blowing directly over and onto piled ice. It was not a replacement for AC but it did help.
A Moscow Mule in a real copper cup is a wonderful, cooling thing, and if you have enough of them, you won’t care whether or not you have AC. 😜
KC, I had to laugh - we moved to Denver at the start of a 45-day heat wave. Our bedroom was on the top floor, with the afternoon sun pouring in the one window. No A/C. The Mr. rigged a fan-and-ice combo at the foot of the bed on moving boxes and I soaked large bath towels in cold water in the tub, then draped them over us for the evaporative effect from the fan. We had to get up and re-soak the towels a couple of times each night, but we got through it. Ah, young newlyweds, living on love and not much else!!
Mrs. "the Knife"
P.S. Everyone in Denver was complaining how humid it was, but coming from the PNW, we found it was too dry, as we were experiencing dry, brittle hair and nails, and nosebleeds! One's perspective is just that to which one is acclimated!
A swamp cooler helps in non-humid heat. I don't know if they still make them, but in the pre-AC days, I appreciated my swamp cooler.
Mrs. RW
They still make them and they are better and cheaper to maintain and run than isa standard air conditioning unit! They are a must in certain inland areas of California! Even little town hardware stores stock the woven thatch replacement mats. We call it 'poor mans' air conditioning!
Had to install our heat pump a decade ago and it sure helps during these 1-2 weeks of the year where it gets hot up here.
Heat pump? Explain to this ignorant Midwesterner…
Super Simple Analogy
Think of your refrigerator.
• The inside of the fridge gets cold because the fridge pulls heat out of the food and air inside and pushes that heat out the back (you can feel the warm air coming from the coils behind it). A heat pump works exactly the same way — just bigger, and it can run in both directions.
Isn’t that an A/C unit? Do we just have a different term for the same thing?
I can’t explain it but they are different systems
AC is a bit different. Uses refrigerant and doesnt heat your house just cools

Hello from sunny NoVA …low 80’s here. Hopefully you guys will get some heat relief soon! 🙏🏻☀️
Hi, NoVA, it is supposed to rain Fri and Sat (of course!) so it will cool off a bit. Just hope it does not rain on the 4th of July! 😂
Mrs. "the Knife"
You would be better to install an Evaporative Cooling Unit, or Swamp Cooler! They are far less expensive to operate and create just enough humidity to keep the sinuses clear and moist. Also, you can keep a few windows open and here the birds and the kids frolicking outside!
I, for one, am THRILLED that the DOJ is finally using computer work to find fraud before the check goes out. Why haven’t they been doing this for years?
Also, I have a client who works for the IRS in IT supporting their original legacy system, their original computer system, from like 1955 or something. She’s been telling me that they’re working on integrating the data now into their current systems, and again, I think…shouldn’t this have been done years ago?
Well past time! I believe the Doge team work in updating the fed technology is what is happening here.
The last thing any sane person wants is an efficient IRS...
Exactly. It's all by design, and the design works for their purposes. Fraud.
You think? I think there’s a huge opportunity to catch more fraudsters.
Large organizations move slowly, for the most part, when it comes to technology. And the Government even more so. Congress doles out the $$, remember? Why vote to spend money on updating IT systems for government agencies when you can use that money for your favourite pokk-laden bill?
I’m so thrilled about the Mike Lindell news I have to say so before I even read this piece. 🙏🙏
One of the most destructive weapons an authoritarian regime can use is putting the full weight of the government on subversives. Usually these people are put on a list, a list of opposition that are to be harassed. Tyranny cannot exist without lists of subversives, just look at the January 6ers!
From the beginning Lindell had a big target on his back. This common sense pillow salesman was cancelled, picked up by the FBI, sued, harassed, all weapons used by the tyrant.
America was always a place where the average person could count on the police, the justice system, a government that protected your freedoms and your property. This was a constant until the Marxist Communists infiltrated our institutions one by one. The vast majority of Americans want stability. They don’t want to close prisons, get rid of the police, let millions of unvetted illegals flood into America. Tyrants want chaos, it’s a weapon they use that allows them to clamp down on their political opponents. Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, Alejandro Mayorkas, Dr. Fauci, Christopher Wray, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, what a team of corruption!!
This is why we have rogue leftwing (Marxist) activist judges stopping Trump from restricting illegals from voting. The thing is this is already illegal, Trump is just doubling down on only allowing actual citizens to vote. These communist ideas are not wanted by the average democrat, republican or unenrolled voter. The only way they can win is by stealing elections. This is why F’n Thune must do his F’n job and get the votes to pass the Save Act. The Save Act isn’t perfect but it’s a good start.
Thune never will. It’s maddening that so many of us spend our words and influence to appeal that he do. It’s wasting time. We need to be focused on the truth about him and get him pushed out, stat!
I know you know Trump is trying to pressure him. He needs to eventually get, I believe, 5 senators to require a vote to force Thune out. Again though we’re wasting time with this bum!
Thune needs to go. He is bad news.
But we also know Pres Trump has a Plan B, and probably C,D,E, etc
The shadow government that still thinks it runs the world has deep roots in the CIA and MI6. Politicians that aren't on board are either among them, are being extorted by them, or are simpletons who don't even realize they've been coopted by their ideology, which itself was crafted and curated by the same deep-state shadow government.
So right, James. Thune is not only a traitor to America by allowing illegal aliens from all over the world the chance to vote in our elections and alter the course of history in our nation, Thune, by doing so is committing treason by giving these illegal aliens, through their illegal votes, opportunities to basically overthrow the United States of America government.
And, the Democrats are complicit in this endeavor.
Mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent....
DAMN RIGHT.
Week after week, Jeff’s thorough dismantling of the NY Times’ pathetic journalism is priceless.
Clearly the NY Times editors and reporters require full scrutiny and surveillance due to their open sympathies and possible connections to ANTIFA and other Leftist Domestic Terror Groups
And two days ago Trump described the Times as "TREASONOUS"
I've been waiting two years for this apt describer to be unrolled
“assault rifles”
Please don’t use that term.
Why not?
See George de Luna comment above.
Yes, just read it. TY.
