The prime focus of the administration of Donald J. Trump is to restructure the cultural, political, and most importantly, the financial basis upon which the United States transacts business as a government and a nation state.. Anything else which gets in the way or distracts from this prime existential repurposing is goint to get shoved way down the list. Saving the country from cultural and financial ruin is real Realpolitik focus of the highest order.

Now let's set the stage, as in yesterday's presser with the South African leader Ramaphosa. Gazing upon this spectacle and would have the United States already come clean about its sordid part in covid terrorism which has so far murdered millions and irreversibly damaged hundred of millions (if not more), what would we have had sitting there in the Oval Office? Would it not be two world leaders of sovereign countries sitting there with (directly or indirectly) blood dripping from their hands. And Ramaphosa could have smugly said to his counterpart, "You are no better. And maybe a thousand times worse."

The United States coming clean respective its dark darker history of the past several decades is not going to get headline priority status because the immediate peril is the country on the brink going down the drain in a leveling devastating financial ruin. Therefore, the best we can realistically expect from the government and any administration trying to save the country is partial remedy, not out right confession and cleansing. Yeah! This is a bitter pill for me. But realistically saving the country from going down the tubes is going to be the focus, not the confession booth.

Still, all this said, its the job of the American people to always shout the truth in a way which cannot be ignored. It is a moral duty to do so. Otherwise bad things happen again and again.

Thank you for posting that comment. Nothing like a cold dousing of reality to give one a sense of clarity. I can complain with the best of them but what Trump is accomplishing to save this nation and, by extension, the American people is clearly more than anyone had a right to expect. And also clearly, those goals are his sole focus. And I am grateful. I nevertheless do think hard times are coming but survivable. As long as Trump can keep us out of war, the American people are more than capable to handle what comes. Janice's verse today is apropos.

Well, and after all, and realistically, real life is a very messy affair. And what Trump is doing, neither political party would have done. They were just too corrupt. And I've seen that much up real close with my own eyes. And realistically, Trump has to pick his fights carefully.

None of us are apt to come out of this mess totally happy, and maybe not even close. But if we don't completely go over the cliff, that will be a major miracle.

And I am reading how the Treasury bills sales are in trouble. After Liberty Day (a bit of salesmanship going on there), hardly anyone showed up for US obligation sales. At least, that is what I am hearing. (But what do I know?) At any rate, I am guessing that it is possible to handle the debt trap situation. But! And this is a big 'but', the situation is very serious and it is likely to go into crises and thus occasion the visible reason for a monetary reset. Given what I am seeing, the folks behind Trump probably want to jettison dollar reserve currency status as being economically incompatible with the desired re-industrialization. And so, given that, maybe that is why we are seeing huge gold inflows into the United States and a push to real resource commodity extraction. These and capital inflows, also a part of the strategy.

It's going to be messy, real messy because really ... there are no free lunches ... and the bill for excesses, decades of excesses and excessive behavior sooner or later comes due.

Very well said @daverkb.

If not for the SALT purple district (blue state) RINOs as well as the slow phase out of the windmill and solar panel fleece, I mean "deduction", the bill would have been okay. The leftists will whine about the SALT deduction. They will claim the "SALT" deduction is a gift to those not "paying their fair share". But those RINOs don't care, because they are looking out for their backsides and their "seat at the grift table". Heck they couldn't even "defund" National Socialist Public Radio and Planned Parenthood.

But, if they get the HPA to clear the senate hurtle, then that is a win for the 2A, and our God given rights. No one expected that to happen, so we will reserve final judgement until that is a reality.

daverkb's avatar

With Trump, his administration and with the power elite factional segment who are behind him being totally purposed toward a total restructure of the United States and all of its spheres of influence, then the entire Trumpian ambition is a long term project with a long view attached. This being so requires a huge amount of planning by a huge number of people. This is no Jack in the box sprung operation. Hence, Long View are the operative words here.

With regard to a long view, everyone is trying to figure this out. For example, what does a multi-generational monetary reset look like ... and how does the reset work on the pocket book ... and where does one place his or her bets in order to come out the other side as best as can be. The things going on now are super-huge and none of this have we ever seen something like this in our entire lives.

Well, for better or for worse, this is what I wrote (and not anonymously):

For the love of God, and for the future of mankind, please stop the increasingly more evident NOT-safe and NOT-effective so-called COVID-19 "vaccines", which are in fact experimental bio-mechanical devices (EBMDs) for producing spike proteins!

Despite the claims that these injections will remain solely in your injected arm and dissipate after a short period of time, these EBMD "vaccines" spread throughout the body almost immediately - especially to ALL of our organs, and persist there for years, as evidenced by recent peer-reviewed studies. They cross both the blood-brain barrier, and the placenta.

Most disturbingly of all, the all-cause mortality statistics have revealed a historically-unprecedented jump in deaths coincident (with a short lag) with the roll-out of these EBMD "vaccines". I suppose you could claim that plagues (like the Black Death in Europe) and war-time genocide can increase all-cause mortality as well, but do you really want to make that comparison?

For example, if your goal is to depopulate the planet, then keep injecting these experimental bio-mechanical devices into our children, including pre-natal "shots", and be sure to keep those EMBD "boosters" coming... at least until our immune systems are totally compromised!

And by that I mean the recent, again peer-reviewed, studies that show our immune systems, at some point, stop recognizing the spike proteins as invasive and, unfortunately, "learn" to ignore them. Our immune systems become compromised, and our cells turn into little spike protein "factories".

Please stop producing these mis-named and virtually-untested EBMD "vaccines" ASAP.

As the heartfelt saying goes, let your conscience be your guide.

Some theories are that IS Satan and that’s why they can’t explain how it works, and since only God is omnipotent this was a way Satan could become omnipotent himself and reach as many minds at the same time as possible. If true those without the Holy Spirit inside them will suffer. And of course in the beginning it will masquerade as good and more and more people will let down their guard, letting it into their lives in ways they don’t even let God in. I wonder if the anti-Christ will actually be AI? There’s something we never considered. Christ was real, while AI is the opposite. Both will lead and be worshipped and loved, but Christ leads to God, and AI wouldn’t. Not in the end.

It is very lengthy, but I copy and pasted this from Jon Fleetwood:

What to Write:

Beware—the FDA warns: anything you write, including your name, email, medical details, or sensitive data, will become part of the public record and published online—permanently:

“Because your comment will be made public, you are solely responsible for ensuring that your comment does not include any confidential information that you or a third party may not wish to be posted, such as medical information, your or anyone else's Social Security number, or confidential business information, such as a manufacturing process. Please note that if you include your name, contact information, or other information that identifies you in the body of your comments, that information will be posted on https://www.regulations.gov,” writes FDA.

When you visit the link to submit a comment, you can either type in a written comment up to 5,000 characters or attach a document that does not exceed 10MB.

You can write whatever you like, but here’s an example of what you can copy/paste into the comment box, under 5,000 characters (I clicked ‘Individual Consumer’ in the “What is your comment about?” selection):

To Whom It May Concern:

I am submitting this public comment regarding the May 22, 2025 meeting of the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee to formally urge the FDA to halt the authorization of any new COVID-19 vaccine formula for the 2025–2026 season and to re-evaluate the continued presence of these products on the U.S. market.

The public has never been given informed consent about the genetic contents of the current mRNA vaccines. COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers have failed to produce the full plasmid DNA backbone sequences used to produce the shots. Despite independent confirmation of plasmid DNA fragments—including SV40 promoter/enhancer sequences, bacterial origins of replication, and antibiotic resistance genes—neither manufacturers nor federal agencies have released the complete sequences or safety studies evaluating their risk of: Genomic integration, Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Fertility impairment, Teratogenicity.

This is a staggering violation of scientific transparency and medical ethics.

Plasmid DNA is not inert. It can integrate into the human genome via nonhomologous recombination, potentially altering or damaging genes—including tumor suppressors or germline DNA. The inclusion of SV40 elements—a sequence historically linked to oncogenic risk—amplifies those concerns. The FDA has not released any evidence it has conducted safety reviews on this plasmid material.

The FDA’s own permitted residual DNA limit (10 ng per dose) was exceeded by over 500 times in some vials according to independent lab testing. Yet these injections remain authorized.

Compounding this is the gross failure of these products to perform. Peer-reviewed studies have shown: The Pfizer shot has “no significant effect” against infection or transmission (BMC Medicine, 2024); Protection wanes within months, while prior infection provides stronger, longer-lasting immunity (The Lancet, 2023); 1 in 10 recipients suffer vaccine-related injury (Royal Society of Medicine, 2024); COVID-19 vaccines do not protect against Long COVID (Open Forum Infectious Diseases, 2024); Spike protein persists in critical organs long after vaccination (Pathology International, 2024; Biomedicines, 2023).

In fact, vaccine spike protein has been found in the blood up to six months (Proteomics Clin Appl., 2023) and even 709 days (Yale researchers in medRxiv, 2025) post-injection, and is now recognized by multiple studies as a pathogenic factor in myocarditis, neurological damage, and Long COVID-like symptoms.

These are not hypothetical concerns. They are published, peer-reviewed, and growing.

Furthermore, thousands of physicians, scientists, and elected officials around the world have called for a moratorium or full withdrawal of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines due to safety failures. These include: Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, who cited DNA integration risks and SV40 contamination in his call to halt mRNA COVID vaccines; The World Council for Health; Over 17,000 doctors and scientists at the COVID Summit; Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency; The McCullough Foundation, Research Triangle Park, and MIT affiliates.

Americans were injected with unknown DNA constructs. We still don’t know exactly what was in them. We still don’t have the safety data. That alone is grounds to halt all current and future COVID vaccine approvals until full transparency and rigorous safety reviews are complete.

Respectfully, I urge the committee to: 1) Reject the proposed 2025–2026 COVID-19 vaccine formula; 2) Immediately disclose the full plasmid DNA backbone sequences used by Pfizer and Moderna; 3) Release all safety studies on plasmid integration, carcinogenicity, and reproductive toxicity; 4) Suspend further use of DNA/RNA-based COVID vaccines until these concerns are addressed; 5) Investigate informed consent failures regarding plasmid DNA and SV40 disclosure.

Without this information, it is impossible for the American people to give informed consent—and impossible for the FDA to claim these products meet basic safety standards.

Sincerely,

Concerned American

Ok y’all might be interested… my FBI client and my IRS client were in back to back yesterday. My asylum officer client had to cancel his last appt but I really want to ask him about the South African situation.

IRS client told me that it’s around 40k of 102k IRS employees that have left or are leaving. She thought that was horrible but I said that as a taxpayer I approve.

FBI client told me that they are all doing deportations. They’re still doing their regular jobs, but prioritization is on deportations.

Apparently they’re being put into groups with one person from FBI, homeland security, ICE, and a couple of others. She said there are 5 in each group. But none of their radios will communicate with each other (of course not, this is the government we’re talking about), and they all have different things they’re allowed by law to do. She can carry a firearm for example but only one of the others can. The warrants they have can only be executed in a public place so they have to park outside homes at 4 am and wait for the person to leave for work.

So anyway, it’s going about as expected, lol. Just thought I’d give you an update.

Also, FBI client said the Hoover building is falling apart and she’s glad they’re moving out.

Luisa Codevilla's avatar

Hi Leo,

I live in Italy. I’m Italian born but grew up in South Africa as my parents immigrated there. I still have my home in Cape Town. And yes, the koeksisters are probably my favourite pastries! SA and Cape Town are beautiful, and the country has many, many challenges but one can still have a good life there under the right circumstances. Crime, unemployment, corruption and poor economic conditions are unacceptably high; farm killings and gang crime (especially in CT) very much a reality. Many people are shielded from that, but many more are not! It’s a contradiction but not exaggerated; I am glad that President Trump raised awareness in some of these areas, he’s right to but it’s only the tip of the iceberg! Maybe now these incidents will get the attention they deserve. Thank you for responding, Leo, and I hope you have a good life :)

Italy and Cape Town - two of the most beautiful places! You know how to choose well. Since you enjoy koeksisters, and I doubt you'll find them in Italy, I wonder if you make them? I did! Once. They turned out great, but oh so much effort. Wishing you well.

Luisa Codevilla's avatar

lol, I do choose well, thank you 😊. Good on you for making them! I’d never make koeksisters as I’d eat them all! They’re my treat for when I visit, amongst the other great and varied cuisine that CT has to offer! Take care, Leo.

This is something most people don't know. Unlike the conquest of the American continent, the Boer was not an invader. Southern Africa was largely unoccupied land.
