ERRATA:

— ExxonMobil leads a consortium with Hess Corporation (acquired by Chevron this year), partnering with Guyana to develop the Essequibo reserves, not Texaco.

Jeff, your posts are both informative and powerful, thank you.

Is there any similarities between what Venezuela is doing to try and secure Guyana offshore oil fields — and what Boko Haram & its offshoot Islamic State West African Province (ISWAP) are doing to eliminate Christian populations who are concentrated in the very oil-rich southern Niger Delta region?

Both oil rich countries now under Trump spotlight (Canada too), and seems that can’t be a coincidence.

It’s also not lost on me (or the Iran mullahs it seems) that 10/7/23 occurred shortly after 6/18/23. What is significant about June 18, 2023? That’s the date Israel, after 23 years of resistance, finally agreed to co develop the gas-rich Gaza Marine w/ Egypt and the PA. IMO, Trump push to now ‘re-develop’ Gaza is also about monetizing the lucrative natural gas field discovered by BP in year 2000, just offshore. Which could be a bit of a positive game-changer to people groups in the region. Could they all have something jointly to protect that staves off further conflict, and Iran knew it and tried to stop it…?

Dots… fossil-fuel dots.

Oil is not from fossils. That is a lie to induce scarcity mentality.

One day soon free unlimited unpolluting energy will ONCE AGAIN be available.

At that threshold there is no reason to create a war to steal resources.

In the meantime in answer to your question Yes the blockage around Venezueala is more about the oil $$$ that the Fentanyl and Cocaine racket.

Iran has its own self interests. They are not the same as the US.

No idea about your speculation. The facts you present are poignant.

My current understanding is that oil is product of ancient fossilized plankton & algae (not dinosaurs). The only energy I can think of to reduce oil use is nuclear. On the back forty of Washington State’s Hanford Nuclear Reservation there is a vast field of machinery used to clean up the site, from atomic bomb development there in WW2. That machinery is radioactive and awaiting to be buried. These radioactive machine burials have been going on there repeatedly, for decades and decades.

The next go-around at nuke energy is going to need to be safer than Hanford, Chernobyl, 3 Mile Island and Fukushima. I think it can be done, but trust is a bit low nowadays. And all it takes is a spike in cancers or emergence of 3 headed frogs to derail the enterprise, again.

That said, I’ve successfully ridden LEU (Centrus) stock all year long, the only domestic maker of yellow cake.

Was not trying to split hairs. However the issue of creating scarcity mentality is the reason oil or shale is referred to as "Fossil Fuel" As you mention best origin info has to do with ancient plants. It constantly renews and is horribly polluting.

Retired friend was Health Physicist in charge of Nuke Plant including evacuation for emergency. Stressful job. He was a relative risk person.

As you point out genetic mutations are no joke. Whether nuke energy can be relatively safe or not is a wildcard. If and when there is a problem its not containable.

Was not joking about the free energy prognosis.

Free energy from the "ethers" existed a very very long time ago. Building artifacts show harnessing, storage, and transmission capabilities at a time when there was no known modern building tools or engineers.

We are as cave dwellers by comparison.

How absolutely sickening that the offspring of former soviets have infiltrated so deeply! 😕 🤮 Everything is connected in the most bizarre ways. I follow the Badlands News Brief. We never get the real story about anything... only the soap opera script of what the cabal wants us to believe. The MSM is priming the masses that we will lose the midterms because of "an affordability issue". How perfect! And how mae-believe. The term "affordability" is a nebulous, "moving target" kind of term, at best. Our people have been trained to live above their means and to "covet their neighbor's goods", when they should have been living according to "what they can afford" at any point in time. Let's help each other wake from this hypnotic spell! Our elections are fake. And treason traces back to Venezuela engineers and Fidel Castro. Listen to Lara Logan's "stolen elections" podcast, which POTUS referenced in a recent tweet or truth on X or TruthSicial, respectively. Thank heaven fo the C&C army!!

Yes, that may be a stunt, and it is interesting that it was done by the Dumocrats, but this may be the only time they are technically right, and it is NOT sedition.

The 10th Amendment says it is everyone's duty to ignore and/or nullify any unlawful or unconstitutional laws. Especially for those who swore an oath to uphold the constitution.

If we want to bring up sedition, let's not forget all of the sedition during Bidung's entirely seditious term.

Posted on X by Glenn Beck:

“This is the law @realDonaldTrump is looking for: 18 U.S.C. § 2387 — Activities Affecting Armed Forces General

This statute makes it a federal crime to do any of the following with the intent to interfere with U.S. military operations:

1.Advise, urge, or attempt to cause:

•insubordination,

•disloyalty,

•mutiny, or

•refusal of duty

among members of the U.S. military.

2.Obstruct or attempt to obstruct:

•recruiting,

•enlistment,

•or general military operations.

3.Distribute written materials advocating any of the above.

This law does not require advocating the overthrow of the government — that is § 2385.

Section 2387 is specifically about undermining the functioning of the U.S. military.”

https://x.com/glennbeck/status/1992661661606461538

Captain Mark Kelly is also subject to military code for the rest of his life, since he “retired” from the military (not just resigned as the other veterans in the seditious video did). He can be recalled to active duty, then court martialed under applicable military justice. And that would be exactly what Gollum deserves. As another commenter on this thread said, others have been court martialed for far less.

Plenty of Constitutional conservatives have always advocated refusing unconstitutional orders.

I believe that the oath to the constitution supersedes any other comitment , as did Edward Snowden who gave up life in his country to warn us.

I think Mark Kelly agrees with you or he would not have done this. Not only that but I’m not sure what the consequences might be other than taking away his military pension, which he doesn’t need since he’s worth tens of millions? Take away some of his medals? Apparently he has forgotten how to put them on his uniform anyway according to an observant retired military blogger ( if he’s correct), so they’re not super important to him either, I’m guessing. Doubt he will be put in jail. So the calculus may have been worth it to him for the damage it might cause. He’s did that calculation in his head before agreeing to make the video.

In addition, the other five face no real consequences which is a problem as well. This type of behavior will not stop if there are no painful consequences, figuratively or literally.

Elissa Slotkin was elected to the Senate from Michigan in last year’s election. Trump handily carried Michigan and Mike Rogers the GOP candidate for Senate was ahead of Slotkin until the late morning hours of the next day. His lead disappeared until Slotkin was declared the winner by less than 20,000 votes. And our SoS, Jocelyn Benson is now running for governor. Crossover voting is blamed for Roger’s loss to Slotkin. We are really supposed to believe voters who overwhelmingly voted for Trump decided that they weren’t voting for the name below Trump’s on the ballot. The media ignores all of it. Until we get election integrity, this will keep happening.

issues almost immediately. My niece went partially blind, developed a bizarre rash on her trunk, lost

feeling in areas, fainted, and more. She had to get her appendix out, became septic— it was nuts. Months later, most of her vision returned but she can’t see peripherally anymore. They tried to get her to take another jab! She filed a complaint and was eventually ok’d. Nephew had much of the same thing occur, and developed a turbo cancer which has since been healed. BOTH are young— late 20’s, early 30’s, super fit, and healthy. It’s tragic ehat they did/do to our military. I am

convinced a lot of the Gulf War Syndrome, depression, alcoholism and homelessness many experience likely stems from some of the vaccines they are required to take.

He made the right choice (he knows several former colleagues with heart damage who can no longer fly). Delta Airlines hired him right after he separated so he has no regrets, though he misses the sense of team and close friendships he had for so many years. Commercial pilots don’t have that at all.

He was truly an outstanding officer and a highly skilled KC-135 pilot and trainer of pilots. He tried to explain in his exemption request (I thought very eloquently) that the character traits that made him excel also made him unwilling to subject himself to the vaccine, and was very concerned as well about the extreme adversarial division being forced on his men, vaxed vs. unvaxed; he felt it was a really dangerous mentality to encourage and actively worked against military cohesion.

I asked him recently if he’d ever re-enlist (they’d probably take him) and he said “No” immediately.

When he left the service they had to sell their lovely first house finally purchased after years of base housing, and leave the wonderful town where he was last based, but now they have a 4th child, and a house on an acre with chickens and fruit trees only 30 minutes from an airport, so it’s all worked out for their best.

I don't think it was enticing at all. Before he signed the final separation papers I asked him about the option of not leaving because they'd halted the mandate and halted the forced separations.

He explained that it's either "up or out;" once he'd said "no" to something (in this case the vax) he'd been pulled out of the track for promotions. He figured that he would have spent the rest of his career in a vault somewhere and his ability to pilot would have deteriorated and cost him the second career in commercial flight he'd always planned on.

If Delta hadn't taken him he would have applied to others based on their hubs and where he wanted to raise his family. He briefly considered Alaska but didn't apply as they're kind of a mess, and went to Delta instead.

They've treated him well and he's content with his choice even though it was forced on him 8 years too early.

A former military officer suggesting that some kind of unspecified illegal orders--what exactly is he referring to, do you think, given current events--might be given and that active military should be refusing unspecified orders they might think are illegal is unconscionable. If you can't see that this is a direct attempt to undermine the chain of command, and most specifically the Secretary of Defense and the Commander in Chief, well, you aren't familiar with the military at all.

Also think for a minute about the fact that nearly 8,000 servicemen and women were involuntarily separated from the military because they respectfully refused through exemption requests and appeals--almost all of which were denied--an order to inject their own bodies with an untested vaccine, because orders are orders and you follow them.

Ironically Mark Kelly didn't believe in vaccine mandates for civilians, but he did for the military, and initially he did not want people reinstated once they were kicked out for refusing the vax, because (and I quote him) "As a soldier, soldiers should follow orders."

What the hell is he doing calling for the military to question orders now?

“Public housing should be safe”…

I would argue that public housing by definition cannot reliably be safe. Anytime someone is given a handout for free, they are less likely to take care of it. Also, when government gives out housing, whatever organization is managing the free housing wants to make sure the units are filled, so that said organization remains relevant and keeps getting government money. That is how unsavory characters get into these free housing units. They are likely not well vetted. That leads to those we would agree need help end up in unsafe situations.

True, but it goes well beyond that. I've given my kids gifts and though they may not treat them as well as I would, they don't actively destroy them.. There are luxury apartment buildings in nice areas that have nothing but renters, and they are beautiful. It's not just indifference but a pathological mindset.

Why are affluent areas generally well-maintained, clean, and low crime? Why aren't there blow out parties going past midnight and teenagers racing motorcycles up and down the street? Why don't the people who live in them trash their own neighborhood? It's because affluent people (generally there are always exceptions) are responsible and have good impulse control. They think things through, delay gratification, and follow proven systems rather than reacting to everything in the moment. That's how they got affluent in the first place.

Having skin in the game (i.e. ownership) is helpful no doubt, but it's not a panacea. You still have a huge number of people that cannot, or will not, control their behavior all thrown together. Immediate gratification and low impulse control are usually associated with low intelligence, and an inability exercise good judgement. Short of a life-changing spiritual awakening, these people will continue to make one disastrous decision after another.

There's a reason "the projects" were/are quite literally hellholes on Earth. Read about the Cabrini Green project in Chicago, it was designed to be a nice place but was completely trashed within a decade by it's own tenants.

Just like a HOA, public housing has rules that preclude tenants from "taking care" of anything. If your druggie/dysfunctional neighbors cause problems, you can't get them kicked out, no matter how tidy your unit or how well you manage your fixed income. It's not that they are not "well vetted" but that vetting is irrelevant. Unsavory characters have the same access bc the purpose of public housing is to provide housing. Criminal records are in the past and do not preclude s/o from access. For the non-criminal tenants and former offenders who wish to go on the straight-and-narrow, this is unfortunate.

Speaking as an exmilitary, we were never mandated to follow illegal orders. This is not a new concept.

I am not sure what these congressman thought they were doing. This is a sticky situation. Although, I believe this legal or illegal situation is decided by the military not civilian courts. Certainly not by congressman.

I’m pretty sure they knew exactly what they were doing: drive a wedge between our military and the Commander in Chief to destabilize the perceived power of this administration, and poise the military to support the Democrat/liberal views so they would be ready and waiting once Dems were back in charge, who plan on using the military the very way they are accusing Trump “might”, to literally get rid of MAGA once and for all. The NG won’t shoot at innocent civilians unless they are attacked first, and even then they’ll use every non-lethal means possible. But after Jan 6 I’m convinced under Democrat control they WILL shoot at any MAGA stink-eye they think they see, and jail every one they can get their hands on. THAT’s when the military will have to disobey illegal orders. This administration has not done what the democrats are saying they fear, but the Democrats already DID do it back in 2021. Which side is truly worthy of fearing?

We were trained to disobey orders that were illegal on their face, like lining up non-combatant civilians and then shooting them.

If there was grey area, as in the fog of war and we were not privy to actionable intelligence, we should have been able to go to the chain of command with questions, assuming the chain was not riddled with moral cowardice.

These Congressmen have a mechanism to assess the quality of the intelligence being relied on: The various oversight committees. They are first being derelict in their oversight duties, and then weaponizing their own incompetence for the sake of political narrative.

They are pushing moral hazard down to the lowest level of the chain of command.

Moral cowardice in Congress, writ large.

Note who is first in Revelation 21:8:

"But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”

I have a sense that there may have been a culture that led to the order being given, but not in so many words. Or, Medina may have been lying outright.

There is civilian law that addresses this behavior. Glenn Beck posted this on X:

“This is the law @realDonaldTrump is looking for: 18 U.S.C. § 2387 — Activities Affecting Armed Forces General

This statute makes it a federal crime to do any of the following with the intent to interfere with U.S. military operations:

1.Advise, urge, or attempt to cause:

•insubordination,

•disloyalty,

•mutiny, or

•refusal of duty

among members of the U.S. military.

2.Obstruct or attempt to obstruct:

•recruiting,

•enlistment,

•or general military operations.

3.Distribute written materials advocating any of the above.

This law does not require advocating the overthrow of the government — that is § 2385.

Section 2387 is specifically about undermining the functioning of the U.S. military.”

https://x.com/glennbeck/status/1992661661606461538

Senator (ret. Captain) Mark Kelly is also subject to UCMJ for the rest of his life, since he “retired” from the military (not just resigned as the other veterans in the seditious video did). He can be recalled to active duty, then court martialed under applicable military justice. And that would be exactly what Gollum deserves. As another commenter said, others have been court martialed for far less.

Like all other federal employees, the military swear an oath to support the Constitution. Any orders in conflict with the Constitution should not be obeyed. While it is difficult at best to disobey, for instance being sent off to fight and kill foreigners in an undeclared war, knowing and supporting our Constitution should be the goal of every individual, who is required with the acceptance of his or her position, to swear an oath to support the Constitution.

is it worth disobeying when you have a Secret Clearance at best and do not sit in the meetings that decide these orders? The very servicemembers who would would be wrong. Now they lose their benefits, get a dishonorable discharge and end up in Leavenworth because they chose the hate in those 6 Congressmen instead of listening to their Chain of Command.

As Comey and Latitia James charges are dropped by another Democrat activist judge dozens of Trump appointed district judges wait in the wings for country club, deep state lover, South Dakota senate majority leader John Thune to do his job and start confirming these judges. What is he waiting for? As we enter the 2nd year of Trumps term time is ticking. When Chuck Schumer came to the end of his control of the senate he had an interview on PBS and stated the democrat controlled senate confirmed 235 federal district judges and if Trump gets back in the White House they will tie him up at every corner. What is the problem with republicans doing their dam job, confirm these judged and start putting these people away? Treason is a crime but all of these heinous crimes go with zero jail time.

Steve Bannon, Peter Navarro, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, Allen Weisselberg, George Papadopoulus, etc. all went to prison or faced prison time on technicalities, most of these jail sentences that set precedent. President Trump himself faced 500 years in prison on technicalities, but Comey and James’s cases are brushed on technicalities.

Why are these country club republicans so afraid of the deep state? If this does not get corrected we, the frogs, will end up right back in the pot of slow boiling water.

Sadly, gonna guess that a point that managed to disappear would be "accountability for all of the US funds that made it over to Ukraine". Still annoyed that we couldn't even get our own congress-critters to force that through to say "we need to know where this money we're printing for you is going". :(

On the other hand, would love to see some actual work done on the benefits for illegals - to cancel that funding would be a good boost for our economy and free up those benefits for others. (almost said hard-working citizens, but just couldn't do it....)

Boris Johnson Urges Ukraine to Continue War

Posted Nov 25, 2025 By Martin Armstrong

Trump’s proposal for peace in Ukraine has been met with an overwhelming condemnation from the world’s neocons. Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson reemerges from the shadows whenever he hears word that a war may be winding down. He played an instrumental role in persuading Zelensky not to negotiate a peace treaty with Russia when it was apparent that Ukraine could not easily win, and now, Johnson is urging Ukraine to continue the war....

Plain and simple—Russia invaded due to the West’s failure to honor the Minsk Agreement. The neocons disregard the proposal entirely and conveniently disregard the original signed agreement when discussing conceding territory...

LET THE PEOPLE VOTE! The ethnically Russian people living in Ukraine have been unable to decide on their leadership. Zelensky outlawed their religion and language. Everyone believes they are protecting the people in these regions from the other side, but only one side is open to learning the people’s wishes. The 28-point plan saves the PEOPLE of both Russia and Ukraine. Russia cannot abandon the war without guarantees that NATO will back down and Ukraine is merely an EU puppet. Zelensky now has two days to decide whether he is willing to destroy his nation for the neocons.

Is European Leaders Being Manipulated by NATO?

The European leaders are ignorant and are the puppets of NATO. They are too stupid to see that the Neocons are manipulating them. This nonsense that Ukraine should not be split is insane. That was the ONLY way to stop the ethnic killing in Yugoslavia. Czechoslovakia split in two as well. The Minsk Agreement, which even Germany signed, was to allow the Donbas to vote. Merz refusal to honor the word of Germany is dooming Europe to World War III.

There will NEVER be peace with Russia because people like Kallas hate the Russian people.

Just thinking out loud. It seems like Floridians like having multiple jobs. [Exhibit A- Marco Rubio.] With the Kelly and Vindmans scurvy behavior, a lot of military justice will need to be released on them, and the other clowns like seditious retired generals. Seems DeSantis could be brought in as a "special advisor" to the DOJ and the Military justice system in 2026. Let him advise next steps, etc. Get the Left all in a lather. Since he is just an unpaid advisor they can't touch him. Then, if he acts well in that role in 2026 while he is finishing up his last year as governor, in 2027 he takes a paid role in the Trump administration and replaces Bondi before the end of 2027. Then the Vance/Rubio ticket announces they will look to keep DeSantis as Attorney General. This then sets DeSantis up nicely as a future VP pick in 2036.
