Democrats hate twitter but can't stop; more 'far right' winning; three arrests; 4-day ceasefire begins; Dublin protests; more trouble for Eric Adams; great coffee news; police diversity; and more.
Sadly, weāve had Canadian loons move to the US. I donāt understand why they donāt move to the countries that have the governments theyāre so in love with. I wonder how long they would continue to be enamored of those governments after a few months. š
Brokeback Mountain was kinda sorta filmed in western Canada-ish Montana or Wyoming. Where the line, "I just can't quit you!" was delivered as dialogue between a couple gay cowboys. Progressives and Twitter: Sames.
All of those celebrities who keep threatening to move from the US. I keep waiting for them and hoping theyāll change their citizenship so they can no longer vote and mess with our elections.
FWIW A little research shows that the USAās āgiftā consists of loan guarantees for Israel and revenue guarantees for US arms manufacturers. All purchases via those loans MUST be spent on US products. Furthermore, the numerous Israeli innovations in arms tech can only be sold to America.
Many in Israel want to end all reliance on American āaidā, which gives total control of its policies to the US. Itās not a case of donating anything these days - looks like just another way of enriching the MIC.
Palestine already gets a ton of aid too. As do several Middle Eastern Arab Muslim countries. So this is on top of regular aid, I think they are saying.
They get approximately 600 million. But they have have half Israelās population. And other Arab/Muslim countries in the region get several times more than Israel when combined. I think simply looking at Israeli aid vs Palestinian aid is a little myopic and doesnāt take into account the regional situation in a more holistic way. Afghanistan, Egypt, Jordan, Yemen, combined get far and away more aid than Israel .
And why not send aid to Israel? They are the only free nation in the ME. You are very obvious in your hatred of Israel, yet never a peep when itās Islamic terrorist odumbo and his puppets support.
all those that stand with israel can move their and fight for it, especially the members of the govt with dual passports, which is very urgently disadvized to immigrants who want to become citizens. You must chose your nationality - but you can obviously both be US and Israeli
In government, at the federal level at least, I can see this being a fair argument. May I ask which people in government have dual citizenship (not just Israeli) and what documentation is there of it? Does Ilhan Omar still have Somali citizenship for example?
When I hear this anti Israel stuff, I think of what I see daily with my own eyes.
Pro-Palestinian rioters are in alignment with BLM, ANTIFA, Marxist over run universities with rabid insane nasty students, perverted pedophile celebrities, demented LGBTQ queer mobs, arsonist anarchistsā¦thatās all I need to see to know itās demonic, out of the gates of hell.
Liz is a Shamamic healer for 30 years. She may personally know a demon or two.
Well since youāre the one making this assertion, I kind of figured you had done the research and would have the information handy. Itās really not up to *me* to ādo the researchā to prove an assertion that *you* are making. I donāt just accept statements from a random person on the internet without evidence, sorry.
Again? Not sure what you mean by that since you didnāt post anything prior as evidence? š¤·āāļø
Ralph Nader is a start but I donāt take one personās word or pov as absolute truth. I prefer a variety of sources, either relatively neutral or from different viewpoints. I could be mistaken but it seems like you are reacting with aggression to my not unreasonable (in my opinion at least) request for sources and some sort of documentation for what you are saying. Iāve heard lots of people say things here and on other sites but I am only inclined to give them credence if they can back up their statements if they are framed as facts and not opinions. This is regardless of what the assertion is. So Iām honestly not calling you out personally or anything but I like to have a minimum of evidence before I start giving a claim credibility.
Define "has"? Do they keep them locked up somewhere? Have they implanted chips in their brains that gives them control? Does AIPAC have Epstein's client list?
Pro-Palestinian rioters are in alignment with BLM, ANTIFA, Marxist over run universities with rabid insane nasty students, perverted pedophile celebrities, demented LGBTQ queer mobs, arsonist anarchistsā¦thatās all I need to see to know itās demonic, out of the gates of hell.
Yeah I will listen to anyone who makes cogent arguments but you also have to be aware of implicit potential biases. He certainly doesnāt come at this from a neutral perspective.
What? The progs gave up on Mastodon already? They didn't like their leftist loony echo chamber? Hahaha! They need to get their next shots asap. ššš
not only dems. Yesterday I was at a party with all reps and they were planning to get their umpteenth shot next week. They just went for the flu shot... all believers. Dems and reps alike
About 35% of Republicans fell for covid shot scamdemic in my area. But I know a higher amount still believe flu shots or shingles or rsv shots are okay. I just shake my head in disbelief.
I keep saying, weāre something of an echo chamber here in this very specialized substack. We are not a majority in recognizing the harm of vaccines.
I was studying the subject independently in the early 1970s, but it was not a respectable subject and considered lunacy. Weāve not come that far, even with the evidence surrounding people.
I still have a smidgen of hope. My dim bulb 70 year old sister in law was as big a vax fanatic as you can imagine, and she rushed to get her 3 shots. She would barely go anywhere for about a year, and the protective head gear she would wear was hilarious to see. Her brother (my husband) and all of us are unvaxxed, and she didn't want to be around us. But NOW....her comment about getting another one is "I've had enough." Hmmmmm......
a very well-read old lady, her daughter and son and her grandchildren, and several friends, all well-studied. I was probably the only one who did not study on after 18.
All well-studied. In what? My brother-in-Law is a retired Hospitalist (Degree in Medicine, and residency in Internal Medicine.) He literally spouted the party line about everything COVID, but has no responses for the VAERS death and adverse effects curve that began in 2021, the complete gaslighting of the public on vaccination safety, the illegal activities of the NIH and NIAID in moving weaponization studies to China, the SADS phenomenon in general. He tried to gaslight me about Ivermectin with a letter to physicians from his hospital board. I picked the points of the letter apart and asked if this guy was on the payroll with Pfizer. Silence on the other end. He has no answer for why another colleague developed Giant Cell Arteritis within days of a COVID booster, except to spout the usual "correlation is not causation". Right. Especially when you don't look for it, which by the way, it was established to be vaccine related by the guys treating physicians.
Intelligent people are being hoodwinked by a disinformation campaign that is probably one of the most comprehensive criminal enterprises in Medical history. And that includes back surgery, which in 1980, orthopedic surgeon Dr Gordon Waddell won the Volvo Award in Medicine for having the courage to state, and I paraphrase, "back surgery is the single greatest evil fostered upon humanity in medical history"
seems like the more they studied, the harder they fell for the scam. A biologist, a social studies/English, 2 lawyers, several of whom I don't know what they studied, and a few of the youth that are still in school.
Don' t remember the name of that old study. But those ""educated"" people trust only "educated" people. So when a supposed expert says something, they swallow it hook line and sinker without question. I have a theory that people who never used their hands can' t really use their brain, and I am convinced it is true!
true! I remember some years ago, when one 'educated' friend had gone to the opera. I like classical music and she knew that. But she said, this was about the South and you wouldn't have understood it. Then I started humming Old Man River from... Porgy and Bess. They look down upon others as if we are retarded ! That was one of the first signs that I was mistaken in that person, I loved her like a sister. Now I avoid her, and notice she does the same. It was thanks to the scamdemic, that I finally had the courage to break up a one sided friendship. We now know who we can trust!
I saw the study yesterday and tried to find data about what temperature the coffee was consumed at. In Ayurveda (Indian natural health system) one sips a hot beverage, usually tea, first thing in the morning, along with other simple protocols like tongue scraping. As the hot liquid meets the mucous membranes lining the throat down to the stomach it has a sort of sterilizing effect, zapping potential pathogens stuck in there before they can enter the body. Hot coffee would act the same way.
I spotted a section where the study described the temperature the coffee was brewed at, but not the temperature it was consumed at. In order to prove causality that coffee itself provides protection and not just any hot beverage that factor would need to be controlled. By comparing results between hot and iced coffee consumption. And between hot coffee and hot tea (or hot cocoa).
In any event please continue with your coffee drinking for wellness - but I'd suggest hot coffee over iced for maximum effect!
Aww, it's not that bad. Our mucous membranes are the portals between the outside world and our inner body health. Most pathogens don't make it through the barrier, which is lined with microbiome, helpful and harmful, that leads into the stomach, which contains helpful and harmful gut microbiome. These microbiome are the key to 70-80% of our body's immune system. The key to good health is maintaining proper helpful microbiome, minimizing harmful microbiome. Fyi - sugar is rocket fuel for harmful microbiome.
For additional context, Fauci co-authored a study published in January, 2023, acknowledging that vaccinations are poor at protecting from infection because they only are designed to deal with the 20-30% of pathogens that get through our microbiome. So his and Big Pharma's next generation of "vaccines" are being created to "protect" at the mucous membrane level via nasal sprays and eye drops. And if that type of "protection" is ever unleashed on society it will have the potential to harm exponentially more people than the jabs. Wiping out good microbiome along with the bad, indiscriminate sterilizing effect on 70-80% of our immune systems. So stick with coffee, hot if you can overcome your preferences. For health. And refuse nasal and eye products from Big Pharma and Dr. Mengele...errr...Fauci.
Hmmm. So Big Pharma has inexplicably learned that the mucous membranes can be a part of the needed protection from outside invaders? Glad I've been focusing my preventive measures on the mucous membranes for years with Xlear nasal spray and iodine spray and antibacterial gargles to keep the nasty viruses and bacteria under control. However, I feel no need to utilize a drug company's profitable innovations in place of my current protocol. Thanks for the heads up on what they're trying next. I've read recently they were on the prowl for alternatives to needle-ey drugs to attract needle-averse people (and make their offerings less violent-feeling for anyone who might feel that forced injections are medical rape.
The study from the beginning of 2023 that Fauci coauthored where he admits the jabs for respiratory viruses like flu/cv don't work is very telling. It says next they want to attack mucous membranes to "protect" us since internal immune system jabs are known to be so ineffective (Yet they still push jabs into us?!?! )
Rethinking next-generation vaccines for coronaviruses, influenzaviruses, and other respiratory viruses
David M. Morens, Jeffery K. Taubenberger, Anthony S. Fauci
It's not an especially long or difficult read. Makes the case for nasal spray and eye drop "vaccines." And it's not like those experimental nasal spray "vaccines" will be safe or effective, either. They'll attack the protection that our own beneficial mucosal microbiome provides and leave that which is 70% of our natural immune system vulnerable to all of the microbial pathogens swimming in the ocean of air we breathe. Much like how hand sanitizer is indiscriminate killers of our natural hand microbiome that protects us.
The aerosolized delivery format is also very helpful for the progression to "Come step into zee vaccine inhaaler vroom, no injection needed! Just stand under zis showver nozzle and breathe in deeply ven you zee da gas come out. Do you haf any gold tooth fillings?" The stuff of eugenicist dreams!
Good to hear a medical doc "admitting" that Xlear/Xylitol is effective against the dreaded C. It's usually available on Amazon - I've always been able to get it from my local natural foods store (which we're fortunate to have in our smallish town).
For years, the anti-vaxx community has been saying that injection ā ingestion. Itās not just science, but also common sense. We have all of these defense systems set up by Mother Nature. Some day, people will realize that, with the right support (nutrition, exercise, rest, stress reduction, etc.), itās pretty infallible.
Havenāt you heard, they want to aerolyze it and spray it over our cities, so everyone is poisoned, er, vaccinated. (I believe thatās Gatesās idea.)
If you are truly pro-life how can you support vaccines? They were developed from aborted fetal tissue, and many of them still contain that aborted fetal tissue. (That info is around the 46-48 min mark.) This is a long clip, but it is worth watching. There are absolutely no studies that prove vaccines donāt cause autism. On the flip, there are no studies that support it either. Of course, the reality is that there are just no studies period.
Best delivered by the sun! Half hour a day on lots of uncovered skin. No UV sunscreen, which diminishes absorption of rays that produce Vitamin D. And no UV eyeglasses! Eyes are the best organ that converts sun into Vitamin D, more efficient than skin. Basically everything you've learned from "The Science" is false, the opposite. Moderation is your limiter.
Indeed, but that's not possible across the Northern Hemisphere at the 37th Parallel from November through February, and the time period vitamin D won't absorb increases going North. As you correctly note, UV sunscreen limits conversion in the sunny locales to the south, so many people in Florida are deficient as well, all year.
Supplements have their place, supplemental for what our diets may lack, but they have the lowest absorption rate. Especially the low quality brands found in most large retailers. Many higher quality suppliers out there, requires research. But you get what you pay for.
Sure, That's elemental. You get what you pay for, but reduced risk from death from all causes is still very inexpensive. Thorne, Life Extension, Integrated Therapeutics are all go-to sources, and further guidance can be found on ConsumerLab.com if you subscribe. Absorption can be boosted with a few simple measures. First, since D3 supplements are fat soluble, taking with a meal that includes fat helps absorption. Adequate amounts of magnesium in the diet is also key, since magnesium activates D3, Vitamin D also helps Mg absorption in the gut.
Seeing I tested as having low D, a doctor put me on prescription Dāit was just 12 capsules of high-dose D2, one per day, he said that would raise my blood levels to normal for a few years and no need to take additional D. I havenāt retested but plan to, to see if my levels really are normal now.
Tropical. Winter I need to supplement. I modify my diet to include foods rich in the D's. Next best absorption rate to the sun is food.
Supplements as tabs/pills only for what I can't get in my diet, they provide the lowest absorption rate. Better than nothing, find the best suppliers out there, though. Supplements sold at most large retailers are crap, very low absorption.
Which, conveniently, are the ones used by Big Pharma research studies intended to discredit the supplement market, because they are kinda really crap.
You get what you pay for in supplements. Do diligence researching your supplier for best results. Is why food rich in D's is preferable.
I buy a high quality brand and take it with K. Iāve been able to get it up to 109 in winter when I was younger. Iām 75 now and itās a bit harder but itās normal around 60 to 90. I never get sick. I get lots of sun in the summer. My diet is pro metabolic pro energy. Iām cycling off keto low carb. Iāve been on it too long and have experienced some thyroid damage. Studies have shown thyroid damage is caused by ultra low carb and keto because of creating glucose energy through the stress hormones of cortisol and adrenaline. Constant glucose/glycogen production through these stress pathways damages tissue repair, bone health, brain and heart function. Keto gurus gloss over this. A few years later on this I had thyroid problems, hypertension and bone thinning. (2 surgeries for broken bones within 3 years) Plus major under eating. I even went to a functional medicine doc and after thousands of dollars and tests, she never thought about this. A chance remark on substack and Mercola article tipped me off. Itās ok for awhileāvery beneficial ābut not for years and years. If I never see another salad againāIām happy. Iām enjoying fruit and traditionally prepared breads and potatoes again. Milk too. Plus seeing benefits.
...Microwave....not good. We disconnected ours above stove years ago. Irradiated food, including water, not good for us. Destroys anything and everything beneficial...but you will get whatever is left nice and hot!
How can the liquid be hot enough to significantly decrease harmful pathogens without being hot enough to harm either the living tissue or the helpful microbes?
For over 2.5 years my family and I have been using the FLCC recipe for a nasal povidone iodine spray, and every single time one of us has felt like something was coming on (either in the nose or throat) we've used this nasal spray and haven't gotten sick with anything. If we feel like we're getting a sore throat, the spray goes into the back of the throat and then of course, you spit it out.
Same way a normal fever kills off harmful pathogens without killing off all helpful cells. There's some collateral damage but not indiscriminate sterilization.
I'm skeptical that there are solid data for some of what you say. Who measured the presence and then following absence of both pathogenic and beneficial microorganisms following the swallowing of hot liquid, to be able to make this claim? Do fevers 'kill off helpful cells?' What is your reference for that statement?
Fever is a beneficial response that stimulates the immune system.
You're still a believer in Mr. I Am Science, aren't you?
The study you share is crapola, refuted by following its money.
Out of Health and Human Services. Government+Corporate Propaganda source
Funded by National Institute of Health. Mr. I Am Science Fauci's Government+Corporate Propaganda source
And Funded by Jennifer Linscott Tietgen Family Foundation. Established to research melanoma cancer. Also funded the Melanoma Education Fund. Which promotes the use of Big Pharma sunscreens that block out beneficial Vitamin D, works with Big Pharma developing drugs, including RNA-based, to treat melanomas that are best controlled by light-weight coverings and diet.
Yes, fever is beneficial - it is how the immune system naturally rids itself of uninvited harmful microbiological guests. It doesn't "stimulate the immune system," it is the result of the immune system stepping into gear in the first place.
Fever only harms the host when it becomes high fever - above the 103-104-degree area. Usually 99-103-degrees is sufficient to eliminate harmful microbiology in the body. And sipping hot beverages that does the same to harmful microbiology in mucous membranes.
The paper has it ass-backwards. Just like you'd expect out of NIH/HHS/Big Pharma/Fauci science. Where any immune response not coming out of petrochemical poisons made by Big Pharma is declared an "unsubstantiated claim." If they can't patent and profit from it then they declare it doesn't work.
I'm not one to do research for lazy people who can do it themselves. You go find out why hot liquids drank every morning under ayurveda works. It's a big, wide internet that will provide results to the terms you enter into a search bar. Have at it. Like I did to follow the money and agendas behind the paper you shared.
At the end of the day I'm not writing to convince you, Fla Mom of what you aren't inclined to believe. My shares are for those with open minds who will take morsels of information they get from me and explore them to learn the truth or falsity behind it. You've declared information about drinking hot beverages for wellness to be false. Your choice. You exist with the consequences of your belief system, not me. Others who learn the truth of the information I share will benefit where you do not. Your loss. Not mine.
I think Fauci probably deserves to be in jail. That has nothing to do with whether this particular article describes reality. You commit a logical error called 'genetic:' "Look at the source! It can't be true!" without ever actually engaging with the substance of the argument. It's not original research, and it suggests no commercial applications.
"Here, we review our current understanding of how the inflammatory cues delivered by the thermal element of fever stimulate innate and adaptive immune responses. We further highlight the unexpected multiplicity of roles of the pyrogenic cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6), both during fever induction as well as during the mobilization of lymphocytes to the lymphoid organs that are the staging ground for immune defence. Finally, we discuss the emerging evidence that suggests the adrenergic signalling pathways associated with thermogenesis shape immune cell function."
What problems do you have with what they actually said, not what you think they said? I'm completely open to logic and persuasion. Insults don't affect me.
You must look at source for science research. It's what every single proficient science researcher does, that's the single most important information a study contains. To say don't consider source is to say don't do quality research. Logical error/tilt. Science 101.
I've already stated the problem with what they actually said. They get it ass-backwards. Fever is a product of the immune system, intentional, part of God's grand design for our wellness.
We can only *help* along our own body's immune system by stimulating heat to mimic an immune response...like hot beverages do for mucous membranes. I've occasionally helped my immune system when fighting off a cold/flu by wearing thermals and crawling under the covers to help "sweat out" a bug. As long as I take care to not take myself into the dangerous fever zone I've knocked out bugs much more quickly than leaving it up to my body's lower grade fever could do. The soaked bed sheets a small price to pay for faster recovery. Just providing the assist, as hot beverages provide before a bug can even get me sick in the first place.
Wellness and health isn't provided by petrochemical Big Pharma/NIH/HHS/The Science Faucista's. God did the hard work making our space suit we walk around the earth wearing that is perfectly capable of protecting us from the life forms we share it with. We degrade the suit with our poor diets and habits. And we can improve our space suit God made us in with good diets and habits. Man playing God with chemicals and poisons isn't the path to wellness and health. Ever.
You are the one who won't see. You still haven't read the article, I'd bet, or even the part where they describe the physiology about fevers boosting immune systems. You just repeat your prior belief, without being open to the possibility that a standard-issue scientist could be right about something. You won't learn anything by being closed-minded.
3,000 years of Ayurvedic medicine informs. But you're welcome to place your faith in Rockefeller Allopathic chemical medicine and "The Science" of the pandemic and gender. I won't join you in worshipping false gods of Scientism. Nor should others. Remember to "mask up" and protect grandma by avoiding family this holiday season! Do your part!
Don't go all 'offended' when someone asks a polite question, FF! I'm open to lots of alternatives in these post-COVID years, and I've been a loud dissenter within my former professions of medicine and public health since they stopped using the science we used to know and switched to the Covidian religion. Your darts are not hitting the mark. I'm not insulting your belief system, I'm just asking you to explain it in detail. You're making claims; defend them.
wow I have to say I am so thrilled to be in smart company!
and also very pleased to witness an on line argument that stays civil and where I am not a protagonist /antagonist for a change. Rock on, ayurveda and recovering allopathic.
Studies have shown that nicotine actually displaces whatever ābugā that supposedly invades one neurologically post Covid and post Covid vaccine. That just a one-time 7 day use of the nicotine patch has a ācuringā effect on long Covid and brain fogā¦
And you can research nicotine on even the NIH website. It has many medicinal properties.
Read a while ago that it is actually the chemical/fertilizer used to grow and process tobacco that is bad/cancer causing. And not the actual tobacco/nicotine.
Nicotine is supposed to be good for treating Alzheimerās, but as a total nicotine addict, any form of delivery, Iāll pass for today. The negative effects, for me, outweigh the positives. Negatives include hair loss , aging skin, tooth rot, eyesight negatively affected not to mention the obsession and compulsion. I finally gave it up five years ago after getting addicted to the lozenges, which caused rashes, and were leading me back to smoking. Father died of lung cancer, I have had bronchitis since childhood, but not since giving up smoking. Nicotine is absorbed into all the organs of the body eventually which is one of the reasons it is such a difficult addiction to overcome for some people.
I hear you, and completely relate. Itās off limits to me too. I think if you can do a 7 day dose without problems, then the benefits could outweigh the negatives.
I would like to learn more about the pros and cons of nicotine because I keep hearing that itās beneficial for the body and some people who have never smoked a day in their life are starting to use nicotine patches. Iām very concerned about this so want to learn more.
My 37 year old son still smokes, I'm sad to say. I have never smoked. We are both unvaccinated. He had covid twice (first time in 2019) and I have never had it, nor has my non-smoking husband. So I'm not sure about the nicotine theory.
I read a review of dietary habits a few years ago that noted that for a considerable percentage of Americans at the time, coffee represented the largest source of polyphenols in their diet. Britain, depending on income level may be the same. A second study done on people with diets rich in polyphenols NOT obtained from coffee might show similar findings, since these potent inhibitors, like isocholorogenic acid A, are found in a variety of teas and vegetables.
What I found intriguing about the study, is it claims additives to coffee, sugar and milk, did not lower uptake, since my reading noted in the past that milk "binds" the polyphenols and makes them less bioavailable (https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/87559129.2017.1377225)
I smoked on and off, mostly off, since high school. I loved smoking! It was my little private peaceful few moments. My ex-husband was vehemently opposed, so I quit for the almost 30 years we were together. Good thing for our four children, Iām sure.
After the divorce, I enjoyed smoking again for awhile, but I had to conclude I was allergic, or additives were wreaking havoc and I quit again. Never smoked that much, maybe 5 cigarettes a day, and never had real difficulty quitting.
I still have great sympathy for smokers. Theyāve considered worse than murderers these days.
I seem to recall that in my early childhood (born 1951) some smokers of the rural areas rolled their own cigarettes. They carried ten rectangular boxes of loose tobacco (sort of like the old metal bandaid boxes, but taller).
I do remember knowing, when the war on tobacco started, that the tobacco companies were big supporters of the Republican Party and conservative causes.
The tobacco industry was decimated, and yet we seemed to have traded health problems. Obesity and accompanying heart disease appear to have skyrocketed. And cancer care is more a major health industry than ever.
smoked cigarettes age 14 to 58, on and off, mostly on. LOVED THEM SO MUCH.
saw me through so many changes, passages of my life.
American Spirits were my swan song.
if I get near them again, its trouble. patches maybe. considering how tough breathing was during my first covid bout, I dont think this is the greatest idea. just my 2c.
Lol, college me went through a Djarum Black phase, followed by a green Kool phase. Then my long-time smoker had started having really bad COPD issues and a heart attack and early 20s me decided I had better quit while I was ahead.
I love it when this happens. Hope it happens more often and these š¤”š¤” realize that whatās happening to Trump can happen to anyone when they displease the narrative.
I would love for Trump to invite Adams for a cup of coffee for a "discussion" about perhaps now Adams could throw his FULL support behind Trump. Wouldn't THAT be rich?
I definitely do not love it. The left punishes common sense and conservatism. It is painful to watch former leftists being converted in such cruel ways. It recently happened to a moderate Democrat in a place of leadership in my town ... the most vicious red pilling. I support sensible policies no matter who promotes them and it upsets me to see purveyors of such attacked. I suppose it is needed for the eyes of certain Democrat faithful to be opened? Still I do not like it
I donāt like it happening to anyone, agreed - but I think one of the only ways the left has a shot at waking up to what their side has been doing, is for it to happen to them. Theyāre ok with doing it to the right but when their own army comes for them...? Maybe we could hope for a wake up call.
going against the immigration invasion, and him a Black Man? its one of the pillars of their giveaway of the US . and god forbid people start asking WHY ALL THESE PEOPLE ARE COMING HERE and what has the cia been doing with our taxes all these decades of REGIME CHANGE. and who is refilling those debit cards of these single men on the move every month....
Ellen - Do you think the folks you have informed about the camps (and it falls on deaf ears) just think "it would never happen to me . . " or something else going on? They think you're being a conspiracy theorist and making up such a ridiculous idea?
its like "the government and media are allied in trying to kill you". its too fantastical and they have to blow it off or their heads will explode. I dont know about you but I was lucky to get this in small doses. over a period of time. My entire family thinks I am a full blown nutcase for following the counter narrative.. and not being committed to DT as the Anti Christ. oh well.
Liz - you put into words how I feel when I speak out: "it's too fantastical and they have to blow it off or their heads will explode . . . I was lucky to get this in small doses over a period of time" - it's hard not to gush out information when friends have not been exposed to what I've learned. I have often walked away and realized I just "firehosed" them with information!
Thank you, Jeff, for covering the arrest of the DoDEA Chief of Staff, Stephen Hovanic, in the human trafficking sting operation on November 15th. It is very telling to me that our military.com newsletter waited to cover this story for eight days, finally reporting it on Thanksgiving, when many people would likely not even read about it due to the holiday. Again, thank you for bringing this story the national & international attention it deserves!
I said from the beginning of Bidenās term--he is a pervert and he has appointed pedophiles, gender confused individuals, perverts and reprobates to positions within his administration. It is a hundred times worse than the Obama administration, and I thought that was pretty bad too. The term āswampā was purposeful because these people are vile and the murky waters of our government are putrid with their corruption and evil.
Itās like that meme with the two buttons and the guy sweating and trying desperately to decide between the two options š In this case, āDiss Elon Muskā or āKeep my Tesla so I can continue showing that I am part of the upper class elite and climate virtue signal at the same time.ā š°š
I have 2 Teslas, an S and a model 3. I love them, and I love Elon. But....I'm no progressive, so there's that. And I didn't buy them to be "green". So stupid. They aren't "green", but they are very VERY cool to drive :)
US Rep Tom Massie has a Tesla and he actually works on it. Plus he uses (I think 2?) giant Tesla batteries to run his solar set up on his KY property. Smart AND sensible!
Thank you! Weāve been looking for off-grid solutions for charging. This is one of the many reasons I love C&C. Brilliant, like minded people coming together to help each other out.
Same, but a model Y. When people thank me for my positive contribution to the environment, I say āThis? The only thing Iāve contributed to is child labor, over mining, and soil depletion. This car does nothing to save the environment. The only thing Iām saving is time and money. The time and $ I was spending to maintain my 2015 vehicle was ridiculous. And the tax break was incredibly enticing. This was purely a selfish purchase on my part. And I love this car!ā The looks on their faces? Priceless!
Exactly the same response I used to give, but now that the libs hate Elon, they hiss when they see my cars :( So stupid. And yes to the zero maintenance. My 2 cars have cost me nothing, I got free charging for life on both, and whenever (rarely) something is wrong, they come to my house and repair it, no charge. Love these cars!
Free charging for LIFE? Where do you live?? I need to move ;). In FL, my brother gets a break on his electric bill for charging his EV. I live in blue Colorado where they rape you for gas (natural and petrol), oil, AND electricity. š¤¦āāļø
Letās be honest. Men are physically stronger than women, have more skeletal muscle mass than women, more upper-body and lower body strength. There is no parity.
If Iām in danger, send me a āmaleā police officer.
Dumbing down of fitness standards, in the military and police/fire department forces, has been ridiculous.
Agree. Women should be allowed in these fields but should have to pass the same standards as men and maybe be limited in the types of roles they can take.
This came up as a memory FB post for me today. Being forced to be dishonest about obvious things is an old communist tactic.
"In a communist society, the dissenter remains silent, living in a splendid mental isolation in which his feelings, possibly held even by the majority, seem to him to be held only by himselfāabnormal, lonely ideas that are uncomfortable & too heavy a burden to carry. The Communists never hesitate to tackle a propaganda theme simply because it is ridiculous & untrue on the face of it; the more inconceivable, the more their propagandists appear to prefer it for its shock effect and probably because a denial of what is wholly untrue usually becomes so involved in detail that, in the confusion, sight of the intrinsic lie is lost."
They already lessened the requirements for the women who canāt pass the fitness tests. It is ridiculous. That was 2019. They were giving women waivers to pass them through basic.
By design. In Maoist China hire the Surgeon to be the Janitor and the Janitor to be the Surgeon. Watch society fall apart.
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao you ain't gonna make it with anyone any how.....don't you know it's gonna be all right....???? Are you sure?
Actually men have greater upper body strength,so it might not actually be fitness (though it might be). I have lost what little I had as I descend into the Golden Years (which, as they say, can kiss my a**), but even men considered elderly can still throw some torque into opening things and lifting things I would get a compression fracture trying to heave up. Last time I was at the airport, this black luggage handler was hurling 2 or 3 hundred pound suitcases around, and I told him I envied his upper body strength. He looked at me, having been trained by Customer Service to cope with demented old white people, and tried to respond flatly and stoically.
"Someone asked Bernard Shaw what, in his opinion, is the most beautiful thing in this world.
If thatās the case, the females officers are not being trained properly or the woke, diversity BS is allowing females special treatment which is only putting all officers in danger.
I'll have to give the flip side of this. Yes, here we see a low level suspect getting away. But think about all the times people have been killed by cops, and that does include a lot of people that shouldn't have been killed - a lot of people are killed that are mentally ill and in crisis, for example. Every single one of those cases I have heard of was a male cop. Every single one.
I'll grant that women are a poor fit for jobs as firefighters. But raw strength is not often used in police work. Those officers could have tased the guy, but recent political events have made tasing a black man a very risky proposition, and they correctly decided that it just wasn't worth it for a mere shoplifter. It's <possible> female cops in general do not make for good cops, but one single video does not convince me. Also in today's environment of not enough people wanting to BE cops, I'm pretty sure female cops are better than no cops.
As a bonus, take a look at the case of Joseph Lamantia (male and not diverse), who took part in killing 5 people in different cases, two of whom were unarmed. The last case was particularly egregious and led to him being fired, but since the victim was white there was little outcry, so Lamantia was only fired, not jailed.
I know of a couple of fairly recent cases near where I used to live (suburban Kansas City) where unarmed white guys with mental health problems got killed and no one was called to account. One was a 17 year old kid that was pulling out of his house in his car - the cop had just pulled up to his house. He had not even made contact with the kid. Cop just started shooting. He claimed the kid was trying to run him over. Neighbors' doorbell camera proved that was a lie. The city HAD quietly let the cop resign with $70,000 in separation money and no note as to WHY he was let go. This sort of sh** happens all the time.
"And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.ā John 3:19-21
I watched this on Weds and sent it to every like-minded person I know, as well as watching it again so my husband could see it and we could discuss our thoughts. REALLY great insight - Tucker has a way of motivating the viewer/audience with calm, rational enthusiasm. Such a gift!
The best!!! Especially his reference to freedom vs. slavery. Iām curious how he would suggest healthcare workers in the hospitals work around the CDC & ACOG narratives. They basically do not have free speech.

Not to surprising to see the Netherlands move right. Isnāt that the country that banned most dairy farming because of climate change or something? When I traveled there I recall the country as bicycles and cheese. Kinda hard to make cheese without dairy farmers.
Michael Yon (former Special Operator, then embedded combat journalist, then war correspondent) says the WEF plans to build the 'TriState City' using the main port in the Netherlands and they need the farmland to be converted to city. It will be the western terminus of a new rail system from China to there.
Thereās a lot of similarity in how the left loved Trump for decades and then turned him into Orange Man the moment he challenged any of their beliefs. Same thing with Musk. They will use whoever they can, then toss them like trash the moment they are no longer useful.
And hey, the left can always go to Truth Social! Itās freeee! Or suffer through the addiction withdrawals and take a Twitter break.
The vast majority of women should NOT be on the beat cops, wrestling male perps, that's for certain. Muscle mass, weight, height, strength all matter a lot in wrestling or hand to hand combat!
That said there are plenty of places women can serve in law enforcement and the military where their intuition, conscientiousness, & intelligence will be of great use.
Witness the latest information on Pentagon & DOD child sexual abuse, trafficking & pornography surfacing, watch "The Keepers," on Netflix, and realize that in places where men wield all the power, police departments, Religious organizations, like the Catholic Church where women have been excluded for many centuries, or even in the Boy Scouts, rampant sexual abuse and abuse of power reins, all too often.
So, back to the cops- men, mostly on the beat, some rare exceptions, perhaps, where the women pass stringent physical requirements like the men.
But truly the women should be in administrative jobs, positions like detectives and prosecutors, as well as forensics & victims advocacy roles, especially with other women and children.
Seattle too. When you are vilified and prosecuted for doing your job and laws are passed to prevent you from pursuing anyone without probable cause (as opposed to the old standard of "reasonable suspicion") why would you stick your neck out? There are plenty of surrounding jurisdictions that pay as well or nearly as well and support law enforcement so you wouldn't even have to move.
Yes BUT the leftards deny nature! The fact checkers never fact-checked that, errrr, women's frame does not allow them to be as strong as our men counterparts.
Ah! I was going to forget... UNLESS we chop our boobs and get a d!ck graft!
This whole democrat-twitter thing reminds me of situation when Neil Young and other old rockers quit Spotify in protest to Joe then eventually tails down sneaked back it. Cowards, weaklings however still dangerous.

Not sure where you are getting your information but the number of females becoming firefighters is fairly significant and unfortunately, just like with female police officers, the standards have been lowered in order to increase the percentage even higher!
My husband spent over 30 years in the fire service and worked with a couple of great women, who did the job very well, but also with several who got the job because they checked a box that HR wanted filled!
Even worse, IMHO, the lowering of standards (specifically for height and upper body strength requirements) meant that several guys got hired who shouldn't have been in the job either!
My only criteria for the job was whether or not someone could drag my 6'2" 200# husband out of a building if necessary and sadly, in the last 10 years of his career, the number who could NOT do that (male or female) increased and that should be concerning to everyone!
Conor McGregor has been very outspoken on Twitter about this (how I found out about it yesterday). Would be awesome to see him run for elected office and become the Geert Wilders of Ireland.
Mike Benz has a great twitter site where he takes on the CIA-led censorship machine. He puts it beautifully; the establishment has redefined "democracy" to longer mean "the will the people" but to now mean "the will of the institutions".
By institutions he means the intelligence community, NATO, World Bank, IMF, Atlantic Council, etc. In their narcissistic egotism they truly believe that these organizations have preserved "democracy" therefore anyone who doesn't support them is a threat. So even if someone is overwhelmingly supported by the people, they are labeled "the biggest threat to our democracy". Up truly is down.
It's why you see people like Dick Cheney and his ugly ilk calling Trump a threat to democracy but never can explain why. In their minds "democracy" no longer means will of the people, but their will.
Yes! Mike Benz is awesome. I actually fear for his safety. Anyone with their eyes open is cast as an enemy and a threat to democracy. I have zero trust at this point for anything that is on TV news programs. Most newspapers as well.
Mike has a lot of short ten-minute clips where he walks through what's going on in the world and how it ties into the censorship complex. He also has great clips that explain the history, going back decades, regarding how all this evolved. It's a must for anyone who wants to truly understand where all this came from and why its happening.
I've dug into this myself and found his conclusions to be right on the money. Definitely worth following.
Anytime Dems and leftists say ādemocracyā is being āthreatenedā they mean Democratcy (absolute Democrat rule).
Anytime you see, hear or read about the āfight for soul of our democracy,ā āend of democracy as we know it,ā āthreat to democracy,ā and any other similar scare phrases, see, hear or read DEMOCRATCY. You will then see that it is a projection of a shadow on the wall. āDemocracyā is a strong word tool used by leftists/Dems to stop people from thinking, to just react.
First, the US is a republic, not a democracy (or politicians would not have a job). To repeatedly say the US is a democracy is deliberate misinformation. Stop the conversation and correct the language, educate the person.
Second, The end of democratcy is what Dems are afraid of.
Third, what action is supposedly ending democracty is a ātellā of what they are actually and already doing, while deflecting blame for it onto conservatives.
Wish I could agree, but it's not the Dems, it's the Uniparty. Lindsay Graham, Mitch McConnel, Kevin McCarthy, and a good half of the GOP use the same "democracy" talking points on people who believe America's interests must come first.
When painted as only Dems/leftists we are being misled as to the real enemy. It's not Dem vs. GOP, it's globalists vs. America First. Good Republican John McCain was one of the worst offenders and no one would call him a leftist.
ā A "populist problem" for the Dutch. So doing what a majority of Dutch people want is a bad thing now?ā
C Rabbit ā¦ Just like here, many officials saying Trump must not be allowed to run for the presidency instead of letting the people decide who they want to vote for. I thought this was a country Of, By, and For the people. A country that is supposed to be run by the people though representatives, not candidates chosen by those representatives.
So we are only allowed to elect those that TPTB decide may or may not be on the ballot. š”

Interesting that Israel isn't getting any aid. Here I thought that billions of US tax dollars were going to Bibi.
3.8 billion of US aid has gone to Israel annually since the 60's.
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/10/11/how-big-is-israels-military-and-how-much-funding-does-it-get-from-the-us
https://www.foreignassistance.gov/cd/israel/
The latest $105B US gift to Israel is in addition to this annual aid.
FWIW A little research shows that the USAās āgiftā consists of loan guarantees for Israel and revenue guarantees for US arms manufacturers. All purchases via those loans MUST be spent on US products. Furthermore, the numerous Israeli innovations in arms tech can only be sold to America.
Many in Israel want to end all reliance on American āaidā, which gives total control of its policies to the US. Itās not a case of donating anything these days - looks like just another way of enriching the MIC.
Palestine already gets a ton of aid too. As do several Middle Eastern Arab Muslim countries. So this is on top of regular aid, I think they are saying.
so is Palestine getting BILLIONS? in MILITARY WEAPONS too? how big is their "military"?
They get approximately 600 million. But they have have half Israelās population. And other Arab/Muslim countries in the region get several times more than Israel when combined. I think simply looking at Israeli aid vs Palestinian aid is a little myopic and doesnāt take into account the regional situation in a more holistic way. Afghanistan, Egypt, Jordan, Yemen, combined get far and away more aid than Israel .
13 BILLION to Israel
And why not send aid to Israel? They are the only free nation in the ME. You are very obvious in your hatred of Israel, yet never a peep when itās Islamic terrorist odumbo and his puppets support.
I let the mainstream media brainwash do that for you.
all those that stand with israel can move their and fight for it, especially the members of the govt with dual passports, which is very urgently disadvized to immigrants who want to become citizens. You must chose your nationality - but you can obviously both be US and Israeli
yes please! if you are in US government you should be DISQUALIFIED if you have DUAL CITIZENSHIP, or if you had dealings with Jeffrey Epstein.
Yes, as if those were the only dual citizenship passports out there in the world.
The horror of it all.
Choose your country, if you are in government. US or ISRAEL.
I see no need.
In government, at the federal level at least, I can see this being a fair argument. May I ask which people in government have dual citizenship (not just Israeli) and what documentation is there of it? Does Ilhan Omar still have Somali citizenship for example?
When I hear this anti Israel stuff, I think of what I see daily with my own eyes.

Ralph Nader is a start but I donāt take one personās word or pov as absolute truth. I prefer a variety of sources, either relatively neutral or from different viewpoints. I could be mistaken but it seems like you are reacting with aggression to my not unreasonable (in my opinion at least) request for sources and some sort of documentation for what you are saying. Iāve heard lots of people say things here and on other sites but I am only inclined to give them credence if they can back up their statements if they are framed as facts and not opinions. This is regardless of what the assertion is. So Iām honestly not calling you out personally or anything but I like to have a minimum of evidence before I start giving a claim credibility.

Yeah I will listen to anyone who makes cogent arguments but you also have to be aware of implicit potential biases. He certainly doesnāt come at this from a neutral perspective.
What? The progs gave up on Mastodon already? They didn't like their leftist loony echo chamber? Hahaha! They need to get their next shots asap. ššš
not only dems. Yesterday I was at a party with all reps and they were planning to get their umpteenth shot next week. They just went for the flu shot... all believers. Dems and reps alike
About 35% of Republicans fell for covid shot scamdemic in my area. But I know a higher amount still believe flu shots or shingles or rsv shots are okay. I just shake my head in disbelief.
Can you imagine what that cocktail of chemicals is doing to their system š¤¦š»āāļø
I try not to.
I keep saying, weāre something of an echo chamber here in this very specialized substack. We are not a majority in recognizing the harm of vaccines.
I was studying the subject independently in the early 1970s, but it was not a respectable subject and considered lunacy. Weāve not come that far, even with the evidence surrounding people.
I still have a smidgen of hope. My dim bulb 70 year old sister in law was as big a vax fanatic as you can imagine, and she rushed to get her 3 shots. She would barely go anywhere for about a year, and the protective head gear she would wear was hilarious to see. Her brother (my husband) and all of us are unvaxxed, and she didn't want to be around us. But NOW....her comment about getting another one is "I've had enough." Hmmmmm......
before you know it non vaxxed will be a majority. wont be pretty, the process, either.
That is alarming. Were these folks relatively limited in their reading? Older, and convinced by a PCP how little risk the shots pose?
a very well-read old lady, her daughter and son and her grandchildren, and several friends, all well-studied. I was probably the only one who did not study on after 18.
All well-studied. In what? My brother-in-Law is a retired Hospitalist (Degree in Medicine, and residency in Internal Medicine.) He literally spouted the party line about everything COVID, but has no responses for the VAERS death and adverse effects curve that began in 2021, the complete gaslighting of the public on vaccination safety, the illegal activities of the NIH and NIAID in moving weaponization studies to China, the SADS phenomenon in general. He tried to gaslight me about Ivermectin with a letter to physicians from his hospital board. I picked the points of the letter apart and asked if this guy was on the payroll with Pfizer. Silence on the other end. He has no answer for why another colleague developed Giant Cell Arteritis within days of a COVID booster, except to spout the usual "correlation is not causation". Right. Especially when you don't look for it, which by the way, it was established to be vaccine related by the guys treating physicians.
Intelligent people are being hoodwinked by a disinformation campaign that is probably one of the most comprehensive criminal enterprises in Medical history. And that includes back surgery, which in 1980, orthopedic surgeon Dr Gordon Waddell won the Volvo Award in Medicine for having the courage to state, and I paraphrase, "back surgery is the single greatest evil fostered upon humanity in medical history"
The COVID scam is much worse.
seems like the more they studied, the harder they fell for the scam. A biologist, a social studies/English, 2 lawyers, several of whom I don't know what they studied, and a few of the youth that are still in school.
Don' t remember the name of that old study. But those ""educated"" people trust only "educated" people. So when a supposed expert says something, they swallow it hook line and sinker without question. I have a theory that people who never used their hands can' t really use their brain, and I am convinced it is true!
true! I remember some years ago, when one 'educated' friend had gone to the opera. I like classical music and she knew that. But she said, this was about the South and you wouldn't have understood it. Then I started humming Old Man River from... Porgy and Bess. They look down upon others as if we are retarded ! That was one of the first signs that I was mistaken in that person, I loved her like a sister. Now I avoid her, and notice she does the same. It was thanks to the scamdemic, that I finally had the courage to break up a one sided friendship. We now know who we can trust!
This pseudo pandemic has been so revealing in many ways! Most have lost friends only to find new friends. Always walk on the sunny side of the street!
Yes and we are having an outbreak of the cold in our small town. They got the shot and still got sick but no one is talking about that

Re Coffee....
Headline I saw yesterday:
"Coffee and COVID: Study finds coffee inhibits SARS-CoV-2, offers new dietary defense strategy"
Perhaps this ends the question of potentially changing the name of C&C! Who knew Jeff was predicting the future when he named Coffee and Covid š
https://www.news-medical.net/news/20231116/Coffee-and-COVID-Study-finds-coffee-inhibits-SARS-CoV-2-offers-new-dietary-defense-strategy.aspx
I saw the study yesterday and tried to find data about what temperature the coffee was consumed at. In Ayurveda (Indian natural health system) one sips a hot beverage, usually tea, first thing in the morning, along with other simple protocols like tongue scraping. As the hot liquid meets the mucous membranes lining the throat down to the stomach it has a sort of sterilizing effect, zapping potential pathogens stuck in there before they can enter the body. Hot coffee would act the same way.
I spotted a section where the study described the temperature the coffee was brewed at, but not the temperature it was consumed at. In order to prove causality that coffee itself provides protection and not just any hot beverage that factor would need to be controlled. By comparing results between hot and iced coffee consumption. And between hot coffee and hot tea (or hot cocoa).
In any event please continue with your coffee drinking for wellness - but I'd suggest hot coffee over iced for maximum effect!
Well rats. I hate hot drinks, so I only drink iced coffee. With cream and sugar.
I suppose Iād better keep up the zinc and vitamin c. š«¤
Aww, it's not that bad. Our mucous membranes are the portals between the outside world and our inner body health. Most pathogens don't make it through the barrier, which is lined with microbiome, helpful and harmful, that leads into the stomach, which contains helpful and harmful gut microbiome. These microbiome are the key to 70-80% of our body's immune system. The key to good health is maintaining proper helpful microbiome, minimizing harmful microbiome. Fyi - sugar is rocket fuel for harmful microbiome.
For additional context, Fauci co-authored a study published in January, 2023, acknowledging that vaccinations are poor at protecting from infection because they only are designed to deal with the 20-30% of pathogens that get through our microbiome. So his and Big Pharma's next generation of "vaccines" are being created to "protect" at the mucous membrane level via nasal sprays and eye drops. And if that type of "protection" is ever unleashed on society it will have the potential to harm exponentially more people than the jabs. Wiping out good microbiome along with the bad, indiscriminate sterilizing effect on 70-80% of our immune systems. So stick with coffee, hot if you can overcome your preferences. For health. And refuse nasal and eye products from Big Pharma and Dr. Mengele...errr...Fauci.
Hmmm. So Big Pharma has inexplicably learned that the mucous membranes can be a part of the needed protection from outside invaders? Glad I've been focusing my preventive measures on the mucous membranes for years with Xlear nasal spray and iodine spray and antibacterial gargles to keep the nasty viruses and bacteria under control. However, I feel no need to utilize a drug company's profitable innovations in place of my current protocol. Thanks for the heads up on what they're trying next. I've read recently they were on the prowl for alternatives to needle-ey drugs to attract needle-averse people (and make their offerings less violent-feeling for anyone who might feel that forced injections are medical rape.
The study from the beginning of 2023 that Fauci coauthored where he admits the jabs for respiratory viruses like flu/cv don't work is very telling. It says next they want to attack mucous membranes to "protect" us since internal immune system jabs are known to be so ineffective (Yet they still push jabs into us?!?! )

It's not an especially long or difficult read. Makes the case for nasal spray and eye drop "vaccines." And it's not like those experimental nasal spray "vaccines" will be safe or effective, either. They'll attack the protection that our own beneficial mucosal microbiome provides and leave that which is 70% of our natural immune system vulnerable to all of the microbial pathogens swimming in the ocean of air we breathe. Much like how hand sanitizer is indiscriminate killers of our natural hand microbiome that protects us.
The aerosolized delivery format is also very helpful for the progression to "Come step into zee vaccine inhaaler vroom, no injection needed! Just stand under zis showver nozzle and breathe in deeply ven you zee da gas come out. Do you haf any gold tooth fillings?" The stuff of eugenicist dreams!
Xlear is GREAT but hard to find in some places. I had a medical doc say it kills the dreaded C
Good to hear a medical doc "admitting" that Xlear/Xylitol is effective against the dreaded C. It's usually available on Amazon - I've always been able to get it from my local natural foods store (which we're fortunate to have in our smallish town).
so lucky! I have one bottle that I treasure, cant find it down here in Mexico and had a heck of a time finding it in the states!
For years, the anti-vaxx community has been saying that injection ā ingestion. Itās not just science, but also common sense. We have all of these defense systems set up by Mother Nature. Some day, people will realize that, with the right support (nutrition, exercise, rest, stress reduction, etc.), itās pretty infallible.
Havenāt you heard, they want to aerolyze it and spray it over our cities, so everyone is poisoned, er, vaccinated. (I believe thatās Gatesās idea.)
If you are truly pro-life how can you support vaccines? They were developed from aborted fetal tissue, and many of them still contain that aborted fetal tissue. (That info is around the 46-48 min mark.) This is a long clip, but it is worth watching. There are absolutely no studies that prove vaccines donāt cause autism. On the flip, there are no studies that support it either. Of course, the reality is that there are just no studies period.

And especially vitamin D3!
And vitamin D!
Best delivered by the sun! Half hour a day on lots of uncovered skin. No UV sunscreen, which diminishes absorption of rays that produce Vitamin D. And no UV eyeglasses! Eyes are the best organ that converts sun into Vitamin D, more efficient than skin. Basically everything you've learned from "The Science" is false, the opposite. Moderation is your limiter.
Indeed, but that's not possible across the Northern Hemisphere at the 37th Parallel from November through February, and the time period vitamin D won't absorb increases going North. As you correctly note, UV sunscreen limits conversion in the sunny locales to the south, so many people in Florida are deficient as well, all year.
sunscreen likely to be a carcinogen as well as killing reefs, so , no thanks
Sunlight is best. Next best is foods rich in the Vitamin D's.

Supplements have their place, supplemental for what our diets may lack, but they have the lowest absorption rate. Especially the low quality brands found in most large retailers. Many higher quality suppliers out there, requires research. But you get what you pay for.
Sure, That's elemental. You get what you pay for, but reduced risk from death from all causes is still very inexpensive. Thorne, Life Extension, Integrated Therapeutics are all go-to sources, and further guidance can be found on ConsumerLab.com if you subscribe. Absorption can be boosted with a few simple measures. First, since D3 supplements are fat soluble, taking with a meal that includes fat helps absorption. Adequate amounts of magnesium in the diet is also key, since magnesium activates D3, Vitamin D also helps Mg absorption in the gut.
Seeing I tested as having low D, a doctor put me on prescription Dāit was just 12 capsules of high-dose D2, one per day, he said that would raise my blood levels to normal for a few years and no need to take additional D. I havenāt retested but plan to, to see if my levels really are normal now.
I am amazed he is using D2. Both D2 and D3 will raise levels, but D3 will maintain levels longer. Studies show D3 is better, but the NIH, in their inherent lack of interest in preventing disease, offer no distinction between D2 and D3, and recommend an intake that is woefully inadequate for preventing disease, fighting infections, or diminishing the risk of death from all causes. A study way back in 2012 established D3 as a superior choice. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3349454/#:~:text=Vitamin%20D3%20was%20shown,combined%20(P%20%3D%200.01).&text=Vitamin%20D3%20was%20calculated,raising%2025(OH)D.)
My app tells me I wonāt get natural D until March. Like millions and millions of us, supplementation is necessary. Where do you live, Freedom?
we got a uv light for the winter--but haven't tried it yet
I buy a good supplement. Thatās what Iāll continue to use.
Tropical. Winter I need to supplement. I modify my diet to include foods rich in the D's. Next best absorption rate to the sun is food.
Supplements as tabs/pills only for what I can't get in my diet, they provide the lowest absorption rate. Better than nothing, find the best suppliers out there, though. Supplements sold at most large retailers are crap, very low absorption.
Which, conveniently, are the ones used by Big Pharma research studies intended to discredit the supplement market, because they are kinda really crap.
You get what you pay for in supplements. Do diligence researching your supplier for best results. Is why food rich in D's is preferable.

I buy a high quality brand and take it with K. Iāve been able to get it up to 109 in winter when I was younger. Iām 75 now and itās a bit harder but itās normal around 60 to 90. I never get sick. I get lots of sun in the summer. My diet is pro metabolic pro energy. Iām cycling off keto low carb. Iāve been on it too long and have experienced some thyroid damage. Studies have shown thyroid damage is caused by ultra low carb and keto because of creating glucose energy through the stress hormones of cortisol and adrenaline. Constant glucose/glycogen production through these stress pathways damages tissue repair, bone health, brain and heart function. Keto gurus gloss over this. A few years later on this I had thyroid problems, hypertension and bone thinning. (2 surgeries for broken bones within 3 years) Plus major under eating. I even went to a functional medicine doc and after thousands of dollars and tests, she never thought about this. A chance remark on substack and Mercola article tipped me off. Itās ok for awhileāvery beneficial ābut not for years and years. If I never see another salad againāIām happy. Iām enjoying fruit and traditionally prepared breads and potatoes again. Milk too. Plus seeing benefits.
My acupunture therapist, after assessing my health, suggested I consume only cool beverages to help balance my chi (qi).
Iced coffee was hot at one time... ;)
I like my coffee hot as I can take it. I usually reheat it in the microwave once or twice before I finish a mug.
...Microwave....not good. We disconnected ours above stove years ago. Irradiated food, including water, not good for us. Destroys anything and everything beneficial...but you will get whatever is left nice and hot!
Oh, dear!
Throw your microwave away!
How can the liquid be hot enough to significantly decrease harmful pathogens without being hot enough to harm either the living tissue or the helpful microbes?
You are correct. I think the theory is that hot liquid loosens them from the lining and sends them to the gut where the stomach acid destroys.
Similar to using a xylitol nasal spray that prevents virus attaching to the nasal cavity lining.
For over 2.5 years my family and I have been using the FLCC recipe for a nasal povidone iodine spray, and every single time one of us has felt like something was coming on (either in the nose or throat) we've used this nasal spray and haven't gotten sick with anything. If we feel like we're getting a sore throat, the spray goes into the back of the throat and then of course, you spit it out.
Same way a normal fever kills off harmful pathogens without killing off all helpful cells. There's some collateral damage but not indiscriminate sterilization.
I'm skeptical that there are solid data for some of what you say. Who measured the presence and then following absence of both pathogenic and beneficial microorganisms following the swallowing of hot liquid, to be able to make this claim? Do fevers 'kill off helpful cells?' What is your reference for that statement?
Fever is a beneficial response that stimulates the immune system.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4786079/
Fever stimulates the immune system?!?! Wild, uninformed interpretation of cause/effect. Our host body's microbiology withstands higher temperatures than invasive microbiology. Fact. Scientific. Medical. That's the mechanism that helps the immune system. Learn basic biology.
I suggest you trouble yourself to read the paper and refute those data, rather than simply make more unsubstantiated claims.
"Unsubstantiated claims."
Spoken like a true Faucista!
You're still a believer in Mr. I Am Science, aren't you?
The study you share is crapola, refuted by following its money.
Out of Health and Human Services. Government+Corporate Propaganda source
Funded by National Institute of Health. Mr. I Am Science Fauci's Government+Corporate Propaganda source
And Funded by Jennifer Linscott Tietgen Family Foundation. Established to research melanoma cancer. Also funded the Melanoma Education Fund. Which promotes the use of Big Pharma sunscreens that block out beneficial Vitamin D, works with Big Pharma developing drugs, including RNA-based, to treat melanomas that are best controlled by light-weight coverings and diet.
Yes, fever is beneficial - it is how the immune system naturally rids itself of uninvited harmful microbiological guests. It doesn't "stimulate the immune system," it is the result of the immune system stepping into gear in the first place.
Fever only harms the host when it becomes high fever - above the 103-104-degree area. Usually 99-103-degrees is sufficient to eliminate harmful microbiology in the body. And sipping hot beverages that does the same to harmful microbiology in mucous membranes.
The paper has it ass-backwards. Just like you'd expect out of NIH/HHS/Big Pharma/Fauci science. Where any immune response not coming out of petrochemical poisons made by Big Pharma is declared an "unsubstantiated claim." If they can't patent and profit from it then they declare it doesn't work.
I'm not one to do research for lazy people who can do it themselves. You go find out why hot liquids drank every morning under ayurveda works. It's a big, wide internet that will provide results to the terms you enter into a search bar. Have at it. Like I did to follow the money and agendas behind the paper you shared.
At the end of the day I'm not writing to convince you, Fla Mom of what you aren't inclined to believe. My shares are for those with open minds who will take morsels of information they get from me and explore them to learn the truth or falsity behind it. You've declared information about drinking hot beverages for wellness to be false. Your choice. You exist with the consequences of your belief system, not me. Others who learn the truth of the information I share will benefit where you do not. Your loss. Not mine.
I think Fauci probably deserves to be in jail. That has nothing to do with whether this particular article describes reality. You commit a logical error called 'genetic:' "Look at the source! It can't be true!" without ever actually engaging with the substance of the argument. It's not original research, and it suggests no commercial applications.
"Here, we review our current understanding of how the inflammatory cues delivered by the thermal element of fever stimulate innate and adaptive immune responses. We further highlight the unexpected multiplicity of roles of the pyrogenic cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6), both during fever induction as well as during the mobilization of lymphocytes to the lymphoid organs that are the staging ground for immune defence. Finally, we discuss the emerging evidence that suggests the adrenergic signalling pathways associated with thermogenesis shape immune cell function."
What problems do you have with what they actually said, not what you think they said? I'm completely open to logic and persuasion. Insults don't affect me.
You must look at source for science research. It's what every single proficient science researcher does, that's the single most important information a study contains. To say don't consider source is to say don't do quality research. Logical error/tilt. Science 101.
I've already stated the problem with what they actually said. They get it ass-backwards. Fever is a product of the immune system, intentional, part of God's grand design for our wellness.
We can only *help* along our own body's immune system by stimulating heat to mimic an immune response...like hot beverages do for mucous membranes. I've occasionally helped my immune system when fighting off a cold/flu by wearing thermals and crawling under the covers to help "sweat out" a bug. As long as I take care to not take myself into the dangerous fever zone I've knocked out bugs much more quickly than leaving it up to my body's lower grade fever could do. The soaked bed sheets a small price to pay for faster recovery. Just providing the assist, as hot beverages provide before a bug can even get me sick in the first place.
Wellness and health isn't provided by petrochemical Big Pharma/NIH/HHS/The Science Faucista's. God did the hard work making our space suit we walk around the earth wearing that is perfectly capable of protecting us from the life forms we share it with. We degrade the suit with our poor diets and habits. And we can improve our space suit God made us in with good diets and habits. Man playing God with chemicals and poisons isn't the path to wellness and health. Ever.
You are the one who won't see. You still haven't read the article, I'd bet, or even the part where they describe the physiology about fevers boosting immune systems. You just repeat your prior belief, without being open to the possibility that a standard-issue scientist could be right about something. You won't learn anything by being closed-minded.
3,000 years of Ayurvedic medicine informs. But you're welcome to place your faith in Rockefeller Allopathic chemical medicine and "The Science" of the pandemic and gender. I won't join you in worshipping false gods of Scientism. Nor should others. Remember to "mask up" and protect grandma by avoiding family this holiday season! Do your part!
Don't go all 'offended' when someone asks a polite question, FF! I'm open to lots of alternatives in these post-COVID years, and I've been a loud dissenter within my former professions of medicine and public health since they stopped using the science we used to know and switched to the Covidian religion. Your darts are not hitting the mark. I'm not insulting your belief system, I'm just asking you to explain it in detail. You're making claims; defend them.
wow I have to say I am so thrilled to be in smart company!
and also very pleased to witness an on line argument that stays civil and where I am not a protagonist /antagonist for a change. Rock on, ayurveda and recovering allopathic.
this comments section beats Facebook by miles!
Kudos!
Liz, this is a great community. It has a lot of esprit-de-corps.
yeah but Willing Spirit scares the crap out of me.
different molecules denature at different temperatures
Good point, but for human pathogens they usually live quite well at temperatures tolerated by the human body.
Excellent share! The coffee study seemed a bit weak ;)
I see what you did there - just make your coffee on the strong side, just in case!
Also nicotine inhibits Sars/covid. So coffee and a cigarette.
Iāll pass on the cigarette thanks. Just nasty šš
You can use the nicotine patches. Apparently very effective.
Yes the gum and patches would be better options.
yes I ALSO hear this about the patches!
Nicotine gum 10 min 2x day for a few days is supposed to inhibit viral infections and long COVID.
Ardis discusses it. And donāt overdo it.
Interesting.
Or chew nicotine gum...
Studies have shown that nicotine actually displaces whatever ābugā that supposedly invades one neurologically post Covid and post Covid vaccine. That just a one-time 7 day use of the nicotine patch has a ācuringā effect on long Covid and brain fogā¦
And you can research nicotine on even the NIH website. It has many medicinal properties.
Read a while ago that it is actually the chemical/fertilizer used to grow and process tobacco that is bad/cancer causing. And not the actual tobacco/nicotine.
Nicotine is supposed to be good for treating Alzheimerās, but as a total nicotine addict, any form of delivery, Iāll pass for today. The negative effects, for me, outweigh the positives. Negatives include hair loss , aging skin, tooth rot, eyesight negatively affected not to mention the obsession and compulsion. I finally gave it up five years ago after getting addicted to the lozenges, which caused rashes, and were leading me back to smoking. Father died of lung cancer, I have had bronchitis since childhood, but not since giving up smoking. Nicotine is absorbed into all the organs of the body eventually which is one of the reasons it is such a difficult addiction to overcome for some people.
I hear you, and completely relate. Itās off limits to me too. I think if you can do a 7 day dose without problems, then the benefits could outweigh the negatives.
I would like to learn more about the pros and cons of nicotine because I keep hearing that itās beneficial for the body and some people who have never smoked a day in their life are starting to use nicotine patches. Iām very concerned about this so want to learn more.
Iām gonna try it!
Lol!
So many things found in nature also inhibit sars...
Hahaha!
My 37 year old son still smokes, I'm sad to say. I have never smoked. We are both unvaccinated. He had covid twice (first time in 2019) and I have never had it, nor has my non-smoking husband. So I'm not sure about the nicotine theory.
Tobacco those days is nothing like our ancestors' tobacco. It is full of s!it, ammonia, arsenic, you name it...
Agree. My grandfather chewed tobacco but it was pure dried tobacco. Not the crap nowadays with all the additives in it.
The coffee study, which apparently was done in Taiwan, has also been archived at https://archive.is/CUAST . Just in case.
I'd like a refill , please
You think Starbucks will develop an ACE2 Dark Roast?
Yes, but would they expect you to show you're up on your booster to get a discount?
Lol....would love to see the marketing on that!
Uh Oh There goes Coffee š¤¦š¼āāļø expecting a crop disaster and price inflating! Stock up now!
Cute...but viruses and SARS-Cov-2 are a myth, They don;t exist.
Exactly just ask Dr. Sam!
I read a review of dietary habits a few years ago that noted that for a considerable percentage of Americans at the time, coffee represented the largest source of polyphenols in their diet. Britain, depending on income level may be the same. A second study done on people with diets rich in polyphenols NOT obtained from coffee might show similar findings, since these potent inhibitors, like isocholorogenic acid A, are found in a variety of teas and vegetables.
What I found intriguing about the study, is it claims additives to coffee, sugar and milk, did not lower uptake, since my reading noted in the past that milk "binds" the polyphenols and makes them less bioavailable (https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/87559129.2017.1377225)
Newer research is suggesting milk proteins actually help polyphenols reduce inflammation. (https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/can-adding-milk-to-a-cup-of-coffee-have-anti-inflammatory-effects)
Nicotine works too! Who knew! I might smoke a Virginia Slim Menthol again someday š¤Ŗ It was a short phase in college.
I smoked on and off, mostly off, since high school. I loved smoking! It was my little private peaceful few moments. My ex-husband was vehemently opposed, so I quit for the almost 30 years we were together. Good thing for our four children, Iām sure.
After the divorce, I enjoyed smoking again for awhile, but I had to conclude I was allergic, or additives were wreaking havoc and I quit again. Never smoked that much, maybe 5 cigarettes a day, and never had real difficulty quitting.
I still have great sympathy for smokers. Theyāve considered worse than murderers these days.
I seem to recall that in my early childhood (born 1951) some smokers of the rural areas rolled their own cigarettes. They carried ten rectangular boxes of loose tobacco (sort of like the old metal bandaid boxes, but taller).
I do remember knowing, when the war on tobacco started, that the tobacco companies were big supporters of the Republican Party and conservative causes.
The tobacco industry was decimated, and yet we seemed to have traded health problems. Obesity and accompanying heart disease appear to have skyrocketed. And cancer care is more a major health industry than ever.
smoked cigarettes age 14 to 58, on and off, mostly on. LOVED THEM SO MUCH.
saw me through so many changes, passages of my life.
American Spirits were my swan song.
if I get near them again, its trouble. patches maybe. considering how tough breathing was during my first covid bout, I dont think this is the greatest idea. just my 2c.
Lol, college me went through a Djarum Black phase, followed by a green Kool phase. Then my long-time smoker had started having really bad COPD issues and a heart attack and early 20s me decided I had better quit while I was ahead.
I remember those nasty things. I had to smoke 2 at a time to get the same effect as a Kool.
ā1993! The alleged sexual assault ā kept under wraps for all this time ā allegedly happened literally thirty years ago.ā
As to Eric Adams: didnāt he realize the Democrats eat their own? Foolish man.
I love it when this happens. Hope it happens more often and these š¤”š¤” realize that whatās happening to Trump can happen to anyone when they displease the narrative.
I would love for Trump to invite Adams for a cup of coffee for a "discussion" about perhaps now Adams could throw his FULL support behind Trump. Wouldn't THAT be rich?
Beer Summit redux.
I definitely do not love it. The left punishes common sense and conservatism. It is painful to watch former leftists being converted in such cruel ways. It recently happened to a moderate Democrat in a place of leadership in my town ... the most vicious red pilling. I support sensible policies no matter who promotes them and it upsets me to see purveyors of such attacked. I suppose it is needed for the eyes of certain Democrat faithful to be opened? Still I do not like it
I donāt like it happening to anyone, agreed - but I think one of the only ways the left has a shot at waking up to what their side has been doing, is for it to happen to them. Theyāre ok with doing it to the right but when their own army comes for them...? Maybe we could hope for a wake up call.
Itās like the ātough loveā concept.
I've been surprised at how they have gone after Adams, given his race and all. He must have been threatening them more greatly than we realize.
going against the immigration invasion, and him a Black Man? its one of the pillars of their giveaway of the US . and god forbid people start asking WHY ALL THESE PEOPLE ARE COMING HERE and what has the cia been doing with our taxes all these decades of REGIME CHANGE. and who is refilling those debit cards of these single men on the move every month....
Now they need to find something on Hochul, besides her desire to lock people up for having the sniffles (or not having the sniffles).
She is so evil and wicked and nasty!
More than a desire, itās now the law in NYS! New Yorkers are not so tough afterall.
I have informed friends,family and clergy about the new quarantine camps and the information falls on deaf ears.
Ellen - Do you think the folks you have informed about the camps (and it falls on deaf ears) just think "it would never happen to me . . " or something else going on? They think you're being a conspiracy theorist and making up such a ridiculous idea?
its like "the government and media are allied in trying to kill you". its too fantastical and they have to blow it off or their heads will explode. I dont know about you but I was lucky to get this in small doses. over a period of time. My entire family thinks I am a full blown nutcase for following the counter narrative.. and not being committed to DT as the Anti Christ. oh well.
Conspiracy theorists was a derogatory label invented by the CIA to discourage people from asking questions about JFK assassination
Liz - you put into words how I feel when I speak out: "it's too fantastical and they have to blow it off or their heads will explode . . . I was lucky to get this in small doses over a period of time" - it's hard not to gush out information when friends have not been exposed to what I've learned. I have often walked away and realized I just "firehosed" them with information!
I feel you! its tough to figure out when enough is enough, because we really want to help them wake up and save their own lives.....
Yes to both. These are āwell educatedā āprofessionalā people.
I think DOH in NYS will target elderly and take their homes. Also good way to clear out certain populations like the orthodoxā¦.

Thank you, Jeff, for covering the arrest of the DoDEA Chief of Staff, Stephen Hovanic, in the human trafficking sting operation on November 15th. It is very telling to me that our military.com newsletter waited to cover this story for eight days, finally reporting it on Thanksgiving, when many people would likely not even read about it due to the holiday. Again, thank you for bringing this story the national & international attention it deserves!
Btw, 25 others were also charged for āprostitution, pimping, and pandering, as well as drugs, weapons, and warrant related crimes.ā To view mug shots of some of those arrested, a few of which resemble prototypical cartel members, check out: https://www.times-herald.com/news/ccso-human-trafficking-victims-located-during-sting/article_401a8888-8597-11ee-8bdd-03c3be40c119.html.
I said from the beginning of Bidenās term--he is a pervert and he has appointed pedophiles, gender confused individuals, perverts and reprobates to positions within his administration. It is a hundred times worse than the Obama administration, and I thought that was pretty bad too. The term āswampā was purposeful because these people are vile and the murky waters of our government are putrid with their corruption and evil.
Biden is Obama's third term, this time with all disguises removed and the true agenda on full proud display.

I wonder how many of those progressives who hate Elon will turn in their Teslas. š¤£
Itās like that meme with the two buttons and the guy sweating and trying desperately to decide between the two options š In this case, āDiss Elon Muskā or āKeep my Tesla so I can continue showing that I am part of the upper class elite and climate virtue signal at the same time.ā š°š
I have 2 Teslas, an S and a model 3. I love them, and I love Elon. But....I'm no progressive, so there's that. And I didn't buy them to be "green". So stupid. They aren't "green", but they are very VERY cool to drive :)
And that is imo the most valid reason to buy one! Itās a great car and meets your performance criteria, whatever those might be.
Will Prowse on youtube has a large solar array to charge his teslas. A great off-grid solution.
US Rep Tom Massie has a Tesla and he actually works on it. Plus he uses (I think 2?) giant Tesla batteries to run his solar set up on his KY property. Smart AND sensible!
Thank you! Weāve been looking for off-grid solutions for charging. This is one of the many reasons I love C&C. Brilliant, like minded people coming together to help each other out.
You must not live in Minnesota!! š
Or the Northern California mountains in the tall pines. No solar usually possible here.
Elon is part of the problem:
https://anamihalceamdphd.substack.com/p/cyrus-parsas-lawsuit-from-2019-excellent
Same, but a model Y. When people thank me for my positive contribution to the environment, I say āThis? The only thing Iāve contributed to is child labor, over mining, and soil depletion. This car does nothing to save the environment. The only thing Iām saving is time and money. The time and $ I was spending to maintain my 2015 vehicle was ridiculous. And the tax break was incredibly enticing. This was purely a selfish purchase on my part. And I love this car!ā The looks on their faces? Priceless!
Exactly the same response I used to give, but now that the libs hate Elon, they hiss when they see my cars :( So stupid. And yes to the zero maintenance. My 2 cars have cost me nothing, I got free charging for life on both, and whenever (rarely) something is wrong, they come to my house and repair it, no charge. Love these cars!
Free charging for LIFE? Where do you live?? I need to move ;). In FL, my brother gets a break on his electric bill for charging his EV. I live in blue Colorado where they rape you for gas (natural and petrol), oil, AND electricity. š¤¦āāļø
Some did try but having an ev is so virtue signaling.
It depends on whether their loans are upside down or not.

Someone commented that there should be a man with every female officer.
Imagine being the man responsible for doing all of the work your female partner is incapable of!
Sadly this pathetic situation is coming to an armed forces near you.
Letās be honest. Men are physically stronger than women, have more skeletal muscle mass than women, more upper-body and lower body strength. There is no parity.
If Iām in danger, send me a āmaleā police officer.
Dumbing down of fitness standards, in the military and police/fire department forces, has been ridiculous.
Agree. Women should be allowed in these fields but should have to pass the same standards as men and maybe be limited in the types of roles they can take.
This came up as a memory FB post for me today. Being forced to be dishonest about obvious things is an old communist tactic.
"In a communist society, the dissenter remains silent, living in a splendid mental isolation in which his feelings, possibly held even by the majority, seem to him to be held only by himselfāabnormal, lonely ideas that are uncomfortable & too heavy a burden to carry. The Communists never hesitate to tackle a propaganda theme simply because it is ridiculous & untrue on the face of it; the more inconceivable, the more their propagandists appear to prefer it for its shock effect and probably because a denial of what is wholly untrue usually becomes so involved in detail that, in the confusion, sight of the intrinsic lie is lost."

Perhaps we should start all our 911 calls with "I need a male officer immediately due to . . ."
Probably should ā¦
I am triggered. Lol š š
Just as insane to lower qualifications for women as it would be to,allow blind people to drive. Just. Pain. Stupid.
They already lessened the requirements for the women who canāt pass the fitness tests. It is ridiculous. That was 2019. They were giving women waivers to pass them through basic.
They fired all the men, you know, defund the police. Then hired unfit women? Nothing makes sense anymore.
Right you are. 4 women and not a single male cop to be seen...... that is just wrong - on the streets of chicago's south side.
By design. In Maoist China hire the Surgeon to be the Janitor and the Janitor to be the Surgeon. Watch society fall apart.
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao you ain't gonna make it with anyone any how.....don't you know it's gonna be all right....???? Are you sure?
Actually men have greater upper body strength,so it might not actually be fitness (though it might be). I have lost what little I had as I descend into the Golden Years (which, as they say, can kiss my a**), but even men considered elderly can still throw some torque into opening things and lifting things I would get a compression fracture trying to heave up. Last time I was at the airport, this black luggage handler was hurling 2 or 3 hundred pound suitcases around, and I told him I envied his upper body strength. He looked at me, having been trained by Customer Service to cope with demented old white people, and tried to respond flatly and stoically.

My friends daughter is a police officer and she would take offense to these 4 officers. Certain she used a few choice words when she saw video.....
If thatās the case, the females officers are not being trained properly or the woke, diversity BS is allowing females special treatment which is only putting all officers in danger.

šš Love this
ARM THEM. Firearms equalize disparate physical strength. How difficult is it to understand this?!
Yeah. If I was a guy I wouldn't want to deal with a female officer who clearly cannot do their job. You know you will be the fall guy.
I'll have to give the flip side of this. Yes, here we see a low level suspect getting away. But think about all the times people have been killed by cops, and that does include a lot of people that shouldn't have been killed - a lot of people are killed that are mentally ill and in crisis, for example. Every single one of those cases I have heard of was a male cop. Every single one.
Our nations lack of a system to deal with mental issues has nothing to do with our poor choice of having women do a job they are not qualified to do.
I'll grant that women are a poor fit for jobs as firefighters. But raw strength is not often used in police work. Those officers could have tased the guy, but recent political events have made tasing a black man a very risky proposition, and they correctly decided that it just wasn't worth it for a mere shoplifter. It's <possible> female cops in general do not make for good cops, but one single video does not convince me. Also in today's environment of not enough people wanting to BE cops, I'm pretty sure female cops are better than no cops.
As a bonus, take a look at the case of Joseph Lamantia (male and not diverse), who took part in killing 5 people in different cases, two of whom were unarmed. The last case was particularly egregious and led to him being fired, but since the victim was white there was little outcry, so Lamantia was only fired, not jailed.
I know of a couple of fairly recent cases near where I used to live (suburban Kansas City) where unarmed white guys with mental health problems got killed and no one was called to account. One was a 17 year old kid that was pulling out of his house in his car - the cop had just pulled up to his house. He had not even made contact with the kid. Cop just started shooting. He claimed the kid was trying to run him over. Neighbors' doorbell camera proved that was a lie. The city HAD quietly let the cop resign with $70,000 in separation money and no note as to WHY he was let go. This sort of sh** happens all the time.
Patrick Johnson-Henry, 32, would have NEVER escaped if PD had hired more trans-men.
That's assuming we have a country left...
Tucker says out loud what we are ALL feeling and thinking.................
Pure genius!

In regards to Tuckers speech.................
"And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.ā John 3:19-21
I watched this on Weds and sent it to every like-minded person I know, as well as watching it again so my husband could see it and we could discuss our thoughts. REALLY great insight - Tucker has a way of motivating the viewer/audience with calm, rational enthusiasm. Such a gift!
It's great you can share such things and discuss with your husband!
Thank you for this link!!! Very inspiring and hits right at the heart of the matter! My gut tells me Tucker is speaking the truth.
Thank you for sharing this clip! Fantastic words from Tucker...
I loved the Oreo analogy. Spot on!
Spent the past couple days catching up on Tucker-vids. WELL worth my time. The man is a joy to listen to. Icing on the cake? The left HATES him.
Awesome clip, and spot on!
The best!!! Especially his reference to freedom vs. slavery. Iām curious how he would suggest healthcare workers in the hospitals work around the CDC & ACOG narratives. They basically do not have free speech.
Most Patients do āwhat the doctor saysā ...the doctor that receives payments for recommending something that may not be in the patientās best interest. The patients have no idea of these kickbacks.
That is phenomenal.
As everyone has stated above, thank you for sharing this link! An absolutely phenomenal speech. ā¤ļøšš»šš»
Interesting you have the same last name as I do. My grandfather came from western TENN via Michigan.
Grew up in Michigan! I married into the Morris family (CA) and the elder, Jess, was originally from AZ. š
Ditto! Thank you! š šš¼
Not to surprising to see the Netherlands move right. Isnāt that the country that banned most dairy farming because of climate change or something? When I traveled there I recall the country as bicycles and cheese. Kinda hard to make cheese without dairy farmers.
My Dutch friend, here in the States, says the Netherlands is embedded in wokeism. She cringes in disgust when she goes home to visit.
Netherlands is woke, but perhaps waking. They also legalized pot in 1976. A Dutch visitor told me abou the coffee shops on every street: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/article/amsterdam-marijuana-ban-cannabis-tourism#:~:text=Since%20the%20Netherlands%20decriminalized%20cannabis,be%20worth%20%2417%20billion%20annually
We visited Amsterdam in 1973, when I was 9 years old. I remember Dad being disgusted that everyone was smoking weed in the coffee shops š¤
Michael Yon (former Special Operator, then embedded combat journalist, then war correspondent) says the WEF plans to build the 'TriState City' using the main port in the Netherlands and they need the farmland to be converted to city. It will be the western terminus of a new rail system from China to there.
https://michaelyon.com/media-appearances/michael-yon-farmers-continue-their-uprising/
everything with these jerks from WEF is a land grab.
Thereās a lot of similarity in how the left loved Trump for decades and then turned him into Orange Man the moment he challenged any of their beliefs. Same thing with Musk. They will use whoever they can, then toss them like trash the moment they are no longer useful.
And hey, the left can always go to Truth Social! Itās freeee! Or suffer through the addiction withdrawals and take a Twitter break.
TDS prevents them.
The vast majority of women should NOT be on the beat cops, wrestling male perps, that's for certain. Muscle mass, weight, height, strength all matter a lot in wrestling or hand to hand combat!
That said there are plenty of places women can serve in law enforcement and the military where their intuition, conscientiousness, & intelligence will be of great use.
Witness the latest information on Pentagon & DOD child sexual abuse, trafficking & pornography surfacing, watch "The Keepers," on Netflix, and realize that in places where men wield all the power, police departments, Religious organizations, like the Catholic Church where women have been excluded for many centuries, or even in the Boy Scouts, rampant sexual abuse and abuse of power reins, all too often.
So, back to the cops- men, mostly on the beat, some rare exceptions, perhaps, where the women pass stringent physical requirements like the men.
But truly the women should be in administrative jobs, positions like detectives and prosecutors, as well as forensics & victims advocacy roles, especially with other women and children.
Beat cops, not so much! ; ))

This documentary explains how we got to this place. If at all possible, the good cops have fled.
Seattle too. When you are vilified and prosecuted for doing your job and laws are passed to prevent you from pursuing anyone without probable cause (as opposed to the old standard of "reasonable suspicion") why would you stick your neck out? There are plenty of surrounding jurisdictions that pay as well or nearly as well and support law enforcement so you wouldn't even have to move.
Couldn't have said it better!
Thx!
Yes BUT the leftards deny nature! The fact checkers never fact-checked that, errrr, women's frame does not allow them to be as strong as our men counterparts.
Ah! I was going to forget... UNLESS we chop our boobs and get a d!ck graft!
Haven't tried that yet!
This whole democrat-twitter thing reminds me of situation when Neil Young and other old rockers quit Spotify in protest to Joe then eventually tails down sneaked back it. Cowards, weaklings however still dangerous.
I had a wonderful Thanksgiving. My homemade eggnog is tasty. I wish I had used more cream and less 1/2 & 1/2 : )
Oh thanks for letting us know how the eggnog turned out! š
I wonāt go back to store bought. : )
Was it hard/complicated/time consuming to make?
I love āeggnog seasonā...the rich & creamy treat...I washed my citrus bergamot caps down with a big chug of eggnog the other day...and was laughing at the irony...ššš
You cant really nog anyone for enjoying the seasonal beverage.
Confirms my belief that if I were needing to be rescued from a burning building, I sure hope my rescuer is a man.
That is likely to be the case because very few women have any interest in becoming fire fighters.
Not sure where you are getting your information but the number of females becoming firefighters is fairly significant and unfortunately, just like with female police officers, the standards have been lowered in order to increase the percentage even higher!
My husband spent over 30 years in the fire service and worked with a couple of great women, who did the job very well, but also with several who got the job because they checked a box that HR wanted filled!
Even worse, IMHO, the lowering of standards (specifically for height and upper body strength requirements) meant that several guys got hired who shouldn't have been in the job either!
My only criteria for the job was whether or not someone could drag my 6'2" 200# husband out of a building if necessary and sadly, in the last 10 years of his career, the number who could NOT do that (male or female) increased and that should be concerning to everyone!
you'd be surprised these days
I think you would be surprised
Conor McGregor has been very outspoken on Twitter about this (how I found out about it yesterday). Would be awesome to see him run for elected office and become the Geert Wilders of Ireland.
I saw a post yesterday calling the far-right Irish extremists āindigenous.ā True. LOL.

A "populist problem" for the Dutch. So doing what a majority of Dutch people want is a bad thing now? Black is white. Up is down. Camus is smiling.
Mike Benz has a great twitter site where he takes on the CIA-led censorship machine. He puts it beautifully; the establishment has redefined "democracy" to longer mean "the will the people" but to now mean "the will of the institutions".
https://twitter.com/MikeBenzCyber
By institutions he means the intelligence community, NATO, World Bank, IMF, Atlantic Council, etc. In their narcissistic egotism they truly believe that these organizations have preserved "democracy" therefore anyone who doesn't support them is a threat. So even if someone is overwhelmingly supported by the people, they are labeled "the biggest threat to our democracy". Up truly is down.
It's why you see people like Dick Cheney and his ugly ilk calling Trump a threat to democracy but never can explain why. In their minds "democracy" no longer means will of the people, but their will.
I have a meme that says: When the left says they want to protect democracy, what they want to protect is their bureaucracy.
Yes. They want to protect their Democratcy not the republic.
I've been translating "our democracy" as either "our color revolution" or "our oligarchy." Or both, I guess.
Well said!
Yes! Mike Benz is awesome. I actually fear for his safety. Anyone with their eyes open is cast as an enemy and a threat to democracy. I have zero trust at this point for anything that is on TV news programs. Most newspapers as well.
Mike has a lot of short ten-minute clips where he walks through what's going on in the world and how it ties into the censorship complex. He also has great clips that explain the history, going back decades, regarding how all this evolved. It's a must for anyone who wants to truly understand where all this came from and why its happening.
I've dug into this myself and found his conclusions to be right on the money. Definitely worth following.
Anytime Dems and leftists say ādemocracyā is being āthreatenedā they mean Democratcy (absolute Democrat rule).
Anytime you see, hear or read about the āfight for soul of our democracy,ā āend of democracy as we know it,ā āthreat to democracy,ā and any other similar scare phrases, see, hear or read DEMOCRATCY. You will then see that it is a projection of a shadow on the wall. āDemocracyā is a strong word tool used by leftists/Dems to stop people from thinking, to just react.
First, the US is a republic, not a democracy (or politicians would not have a job). To repeatedly say the US is a democracy is deliberate misinformation. Stop the conversation and correct the language, educate the person.
Second, The end of democratcy is what Dems are afraid of.
Third, what action is supposedly ending democracty is a ātellā of what they are actually and already doing, while deflecting blame for it onto conservatives.
Wish I could agree, but it's not the Dems, it's the Uniparty. Lindsay Graham, Mitch McConnel, Kevin McCarthy, and a good half of the GOP use the same "democracy" talking points on people who believe America's interests must come first.
When painted as only Dems/leftists we are being misled as to the real enemy. It's not Dem vs. GOP, it's globalists vs. America First. Good Republican John McCain was one of the worst offenders and no one would call him a leftist.
ā A "populist problem" for the Dutch. So doing what a majority of Dutch people want is a bad thing now?ā
C Rabbit ā¦ Just like here, many officials saying Trump must not be allowed to run for the presidency instead of letting the people decide who they want to vote for. I thought this was a country Of, By, and For the people. A country that is supposed to be run by the people though representatives, not candidates chosen by those representatives.
So we are only allowed to elect those that TPTB decide may or may not be on the ballot. š”
A majority is a threat to our democracy!
Right you are. And it all makes perfect sense to Franz Kafka, George Orwell, and Joseph Heller.
āIām not a crack negotiator like Joe Biden.ā
Crack negotiator. Crack. I see what you did there.š¤šš š¤£
Hunter is definitely a crack negotiator though!
