The Heisenberg Effect sounds a lot like Ring of Gyges in Plato’s Republic, where the ring allows the wearer to become invisible and when someone is invisible, they will do things they wouldn't otherwise do when people could see them doing something wrong.
Jeff, you are also totally confused the Heisenberg's indeterminacy principle with the observer effect. I think the latter fits your case as an analogy better. So leave Heisenberg completely alone :-)
Yes, as I recall Heisenberg's principle was that you could know *either* the position, *or* the velocity of a particle, but not both. Or else I'm confusing that with yet another quantum principle... the perils of a popular-level vague familiarity with a subject.
Heisenberg and Schrodinger are driving in a car. A police officer pulls them over for speeding and approaches Heisenberg in the driver's seat and asks, "do you know how fast your were going?" Heisenberg answers "No, but I can tell you exactly where I was at the time." The officer thinks this odd answer constitutes grounds for a search of the vehicle and demands the keys. After examining the car he comes up to Schrodinger in the passenger seat and says, "Did you know you have a dead cat in your trunk?" Schrodinger exclaims, "Well I do NOW!"
One of my all time favorite jokes. I can't take credit for it but it is interesting to gauge peoples' reactions. It seems to function as both a joke and a test.
Another favorite:
Argon walks into a bar. Pointing to the door, the bartender shouts angrily, "We don't serve noble gases in here!!"
"My firm is currently preparing a major case challenging the Constitutionality of the PREP Act — the federal statute that shields Pfizer and Moderna from liability for their defective vaccine products.".
YES!!!!! Thank you. I've been expecting a tsunami of suits for a couple years now...
More and more is coming out about the preventive cancer screenings! Most are fake and produce nothing but fear and rushing you into the cancer treatment death merry go round.
I’m done with those too. I’d have to have a pretty good reason. My mother in law died from ovarian cancer. Medical records showed the elderly doc removed the wrong ovary. The doc was dead by the time it was noted. I had a hip replacement last year. They marked the leg and asked me which one before they put me under.
I've read about people marking their own bodies before they go to the hospital, one in fact had written "NOT THIS ONE" when he was to have a kidney removed
Yup. Been on that path for years. Even the functional medicine doc has missed that. They are ALL about supplements in most cases. I’m not returning except for a blood snd thyroid panel in February. I’m on a pro—metabolic energy journey now. Done totally with IF, low carb, keto and the carnivore misrepresentations. We have been deceived. No surprise. 😑🤔
look up functional nutrition alliance, I am currently enrolled in that course and am excited about it! This would be something you probably could do and work with others!
I had almost given up on my blood pressure ever being brought under control when inept billing by my last physician caused me to find a wonderfully competent nurse practitioner that followed my lead into the successful application of a tiny dose of a loop diuretic, curing the problem with two office visits. Since Medicare insists on a paid annual wellness visit and my new prescription requires mild monitoring of my potassium level (which isn't likely to be a problem for a dedicated carnivore like me), I'll be happy to comply.
I've had BP that is somewhat too high since I was in my 20s (I'm 74 now), no real explanation for it except perhaps a familial thing as I am not at all overweight, normal to low normal for my height, and no other conditions to deal with. My doctor tried different things for the BP, all of which I rejected, but we finally ended up with a very modest combo pill that sounds like the loop diuretic you described called Triamterene, which is defined like this:
Triamterene is a potassium-sparing diuretic often used in combination with thiazide diuretics for the treatment of high blood pressure or swelling. The combination with hydrochlorothiazide, is known as hydrochlorothiazide/triamterene.
This has kept my slightly elevated (so they say) BP in line for at least the last 15 years. I get no side effects except if I miss 2 or 3 days taking it I get horrible dry mouth, and I'm thinking my electrolyte levels get off balance, and then when I resume taking the pills it takes several days sometimes to get rid of the dry mouth. So once you are taking the Triamterene, it's best to take it without missing a day. They're extremely cheap...between $3 and $10 for a 90 day supply.
Can you imagine the number TV commercials from Class Action Litigation Firms, we will bombarded with, once the legal floodgates are open. I will welcome it.
I’m not defending pharma here, but keep in mind that pharma is a business. What’s the goal of business?- to create a product or service that makes money. Some businesses do that ethically, some do it unethically.
The real failure is that of government to protect its citizens- which should be the goal of government. This is where great legal minds (like Jeff) need to harness the power of laser focused surgical exploration and excision of the cancerous socialism that created this debacle. If pharma experiences collateral damage in the process- so be it, but collusion with government and pharma needs to be blown apart and government retooled to do the job it was created to do.
Remember “If the glove don’t fit, you must acquit?” Johnny Cochrane proved that nursery rhymes are persuasive. Vax-injury dream teams will remove all doubt from the minds of jurors with vapid lines like these. We’re going to need a lot of them.
They are an intl web register where you must legally include your mailing address and personal info when registering a domain name. I think to make sure you are a real human? Like a phone book of sorts 👀
Let's just hope Judges don't dismiss these cases on random 'standing' excuses as they have with the multiple voter fraud cases. The evidence will never be presented.
And what about the theory that the Dept of Defense was behind it all (Warp Speed), Pfizer and Moderna acting as the frontmen/distributor. In fact, I think at some point Pfizer actually said that they could not be sued because everything they did was approved and at the behest of the Government. If the government knew and approved then it was OK.
I've heard Attny John Barnes talk about this vis a vis his lawsuit.
Hahaha 😂 😆 😂 to NYC and all its dumb libbies and normies. Cuts in services. Library reduction - which means less drag queen story time! Oh the horror. Also, adams wants the parents to volunteer to provide security for the children at school
Hahaha 😂😂 Just some of the great things that happen when you vote dem. Reap what you sow!
Less homeless in the libraries on sundays I’m a retired librarian. Our old library was near the last stop on the commuter rail to snd from Chicago. We would get homeless all week except Sunday of course. Closed. We built a new one over a mile away and no homeless came then that we could reckon at anytime. .
Worked in a suburban Chicago library for a few years.. big homeless problem because of their mental health issues - creepy men would try to watch porn on the computers - the poor reference librarians had to keep dealing with that, chasing them off the computers. Had a bag lady who would just pee all over herself and then sit on the upholstered chairs. Would not use our brand new, spotlessly clean restrooms. Had to escort her out when we closed at 9 pm every night. The stench made your eyes water. It took an entire year but eventually the library got her permanently banned - she had been given a years worth of chances and all kinds of social services and money and whatnot. And the absolute crap we got when the wokesters found out she was banned - oh the threats we got - it was unbelievable. She really needed psychiatric care and they were taking up a collection to give her restaurant gift cards. She started hanging out at the bus shelter across from the library and then we really started to get complaints about how terrible we were. Our tax dollars at work. Not to mention the garbage that passes for literature these days. I feel sorry for kids.
Ugh I love how these pretend virtuous people are all up in arms about things like this and “care” when it isn’t something they have to deal with personally 🙄🙄🙄🤬🤬🤬
Big E, seems we Oregonians lost you to Idaho. I just subscribed to your substack and based on what I'm reading, it's Oregons loss and Idaho's gain. At leat I can follow you here and on your substack.
I was recently in NYC for a work trip. I couldn't help but wonder who is paying for all the homeless and dregs of society standing around on the sidewalks in the middle of the day wearing sweats or pajamas and smoking weed. Obviously, those individuals are not paying for their constant stream of weed themselves. Yet, they're all going to town on weed all day long. No wonder the city is broke. It's become a hostel operator and drug dealer who doesn't understand the basic economics of costs/revenue.
It really is. It's always been gross, but that's been ratcheted up a few notches since I was last there a decade or so ago. The crime, litter, urine, trash, poop, vomit, homelessness, and drug use is all on display constantly. Not just weed, but guys doing meth on the sidewalk as well. Looking out at it from 30 floors up you can see what must have been an incredible feat of engineering at one time. Now, it's just dead and decaying. The streets and sidewalks are crap, the subway is disgusting and barely functional, there are construction vehicles and signs everywhere...but seemingly no actual construction being done. All while a bunch of zombies walk around acting like none of that decay is happening. Very depressing place to be. Very out of touch with healthy living and values, but also just out of sync with human nature itself.
Wonder if all this has tempered the arrogance of my NYC friends, acquaintances now. We parted ways over politics of course, and I’m in Texas now, which to New Yorkers is nowhere. They voted for this s*it show. Who’s smarter now? Sung to the tune of....
I doubt it. Zombies don't know they're zombies. Delusional people don't know they're delusional. I hate to sound overly judgmental, but I really do believe it's a form of delusion to ignore the crime, violence, excessive costs, unnaturalness, and decay of the physical reality surrounding oneself in order to have access to "stuff." Which really just means having lots of overpriced restaurants and music venues to go to. Venues that can be found in any city, only without all the extra cost and physical assault. It's as if they pay 3x more and put up with 100x times more nonsense to be near what their peers consider "cool" "stuff." Which just seems incredibly superficial, ego-driven, and delusional to me.
Like when the dem mayors go to Biden to 'complain' .....not pressuring him to close the border, but to GIVE THEM MORE money to spend on the invasion force:-)
yes, more Fake $$$$ for processing, housing, services, and oh they want to work to pay back for the hospitality shown... do the bug-food processing plants need new wave of workers that can be unionized?
When you reduce services, HR will work to reduce staff since there not enough work for the staff. It is not good for either the staff and those who receive benefits.
Provide security with what?? The guns Adams and his ilk don’t want regular citizens to have? Maybe they could get a social worker to provide security by talking any potential perpetrators out of their violence 🙄
Isn’t it interesting that when the illegals drain your bank account, taxes dry up because you drove out small and large businesses, and you try to recover by making the children suffer, take away security measures, and cut education. 🤨 How about cut off the illegals living in 5 star hotels and getting free everything! How about you start there! The goal? Make the peasants suffer for govt stupidity and make it hurt as much as possible. They hate the American people. How much more proof do brain dead people need. 🤦🏼♀️
I still pay into S/S retirement because I have a sole proprietorship - but it does concern me a great deal that most of my income is my S/S retirement benefits. I pray about re-entering the workforce (which I did for about 10 years in my late 60's, early 70's...but I know I don't have the physical stamina to stand for even 4 hours a day anymore! I'm just now looking for a REMOTE customer service position that I can do for under 30 hours a week (that's the sticking point--all of the ones I've been approached for interviews want a FULL TIME worker--I just cannot sit OR stand for more than 2 hours at a pop!!
You should start selling things online. I’m in my 60’s, have been selling on EBay for 25 years. On average I make $2000-$3000 a month with very little effort. There are other platforms as well, it may be the answer for you. Start with items in your own house/closet.
I DO sell things--that's what my sole proprietorship is all about. I had a B2B website for over 19 years and in 2019 everything just dried up (due to Amazon mostly getting into 3rd party Sellers buying into using their platform). I would have to stock what I sell (maintenance products for industrial applications) and I did stock the rivets that my #1 client bought from me for many years. I lost that biz in 2014....so I mostly "drop ship" what I sell. I have friends who sell on Ebay and it is mostly "pin money" for them. You're doing very well, Gigi--what items do you sell on Ebay?
Yes, I notice that NYC's worse than useless, truly toxic Department of Health and Mental Hygiene isn't on the list for cuts. Why am I not surprised?
If I had won my campaign for City Council, defunding that agency and taking the pharma shill of a Health Commissioner to task would have been high on my agenda, even if the city's budget had been overflowing with money.
As the article stated, they actually passed a law that *mandates* providing things to "undocumented immigrants". They are screwed until they wake up and repeal that law.
NY citizens should take notes from Jeff and start hassling their legislators (but I doubt they read C&C).
Exactly the question I’ve asked watching them “walk” up through Mexico hundreds of miles 🙄 in their designer clothes and shoes 🙄 talking on cell phones. 🤔 Who is paying for those cell phones? I want to know who gave them rides and dropped them off before the cameras started rolling….
They will need a lot of fraud to overcome the supposed red wave. In 2016, Trump led none of these polls, yet won many of the contested states. For 2024 for the first time he's literally leading all of the pols by +4 and more.
They felt they had the fix in in 2016 but vastly under estimated his support and failed to hold him off.
In 2020 they felt they had the fix in but again, his numbers were overwhelming so much so that they stopped the counting in 6 states at the exact same time and took weeks to print up fake ballots to successfuly put Biden in office.
In 2022 they repeated their success. Election rigging by Dems has been active since 1985, possibly earlier than that but 1985 is the earliest year that records were still available in any quantity.
Will they do it again in 2024? Of course. For crime that pays is crime that stays as Catherine Austin Fitts has observed. Should you vote, absolutely, no question make it as difficult as possible for them. Will they get away with it, probably. Who do you see stopping them? History teaches us, coups are not voted out.
I agree with what you say until the end. You say to vote anyway, but then give an argument for not voting. Don't give up before there's an actual loss.
"This is a very important lesson. You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.” – VADM James Stockdale, USN
I understand your reasoning, my goal was to state what I see as the right thing to do and the plausible outcome. I wasn't giving up nor would I encourage others to. :)
@BFM I love your optimism, but we KNOW there was massive fraud in 2020, and not nearly enough has been done to rectify it. Oh sure, a few states have repaired the ridiculous laws they passed in the name of “safety” during the pandemic (spit), but until elections are severed from electronics, we will get the leaders “they” select. And if you complain you can just wait for the knock on your door to go join the J6ers in the gulag. How do you see it turning out any other way?
Yes! Phantom ballots/dirty rolls, which could be eliminated if we had in-person, voter ID, paper ballots, counted on-site the day of voting, and no absentee ballots allowed without a verifiable reason, like military or handicapped/ill voters. Without those safeguards, legitimate elections are a distant memory, unfortunately.
The other way I see it turning out is no election because our Commander In Chief, Donald Trump and the Military that is actually governing, will declare selective martial law and we will watch military tribunals to convict the criminals and then begin the process of reconstituting our Constitutional Goveernment.
Absolutely we have to rally behind him. He (and let's face it, almost all of us) greatly underestimated what we were up against in 2016 and even in 2020. He won't make the same mistakes again.
Vonu, you're asking why a human being made mistakes? Read the first part of the Book of Genesis in the Bible. Everything flows from that. We all make mistakes, large and small. Is there such a thing as a never-made-a-mistake office-holder? Is perfection a reasonable standard? Why do you think you know someone else's motivations, as you seem to imply you do?
OK, how many presidents have managed to all their campaign promises? I'll admit, if you judge by that metric, Trump WAS disappointing. But to vote for BIDEN as a result????
Exactly politico Phill! We cannot trust these polls because we know they lie but the fact that they cannot hide that Trump is leading makes me laugh. There is no way in the world Biden has anywhere near 40. But they have to keep it close so they can cheat and say well, it was always a close run. In 2016, Trump said he was going to win, in 2020 He said they were going to steal it, for 2024 He said they are not going to rig it. I am hoping they have a plan to stop the steal. Also remember the polls had HRC leading 98 to less than 2. Ha not even close!
All states need to use paper ballets and have more security watching every move for elections!!! Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is not the answer.
What if the polls are lying by showing Trump ahead when he's not really? Goal being to assure Trump gets nominated because he would be easier to beat than DeSantis. It's a distinct possibility.
Funny you should mention B2N... there is a person on here today that reminds me of him except it is about Trump instead of Putin. Talks and replies just like B2N. Maybe he is task with election stuff now.
BFM, It is SO scary and insane that the best you got is a choice between Biden (demented and already half dead) and Trump (a cheating narcissistic buffoon).
And what's even worse is - you all play along with it! No wonder the US is going down the pan. God help us all !
I think Trump could be leading 100 to 1 and the demoRATs would still win. No one in a place of authority has taken voter fraud seriously enough to do anything about it.
Did you see the unhinged video of the dude Michael Rappaport who’s a “celebrity” in his own mind 🙄 who was bat shit Trump hating since 2016 then covid crazy vaxx pushing biden supporter all over social media since 2020??? As he goes off the rails and calls Trump a bunch of nasty names he says he’s gonna probably vote for him because we need this stuff figured out and then proceeds to trash the one guy he says could fix it all. Hahahahaha His idiocy comes through loud and clear. It’s on Telegram but I’m sure it’s on X too.
Biden still holds 30-40% approval; these are the functionally mentally ill who need oversight and care or sent to Ukraine for asylum should Trump not get cheated and pull off a win with Putin's help in 2024. I will personally pay for Ken Buck to relocate from my state of Coloazuldo.
I wouldn't underestimate Kennedy. He's polling well in battleground states and has the highest favorability rating of the three as well...Time will tell
The SMO in Ukraine may be "drying up" in the Western MSM, but in the battle field reality it has entered into a 3rd phase. But enough of my yakkin....Big Serge has a decent overview and SitRep.
Adding a Heisenberg Effect on local pushback occurring with Pediatric Vaccination:
This morning, on my KTVB 7 (NBC affiliate) in Boise they reported the following: “More and more parents are choosing NOT to vaccinate their kids across the country, but none more than here in Idaho… The following numbers are from the CDC specifically for Kindergartners in the 2022-2023 school year: The report shows that Idaho leads the country with a 12.1% exemption rate… This is the highest exemption rate ever recorded in the US, with the CDC’s recommended rate of exemption being at 5% or lower.”
The local affiliate then used Dr. Michael Wheaton, a Pediatrician with St. Alphonsus Medical Center to push childhood injections in order “to prevent” diseases like COVID-19, measles, and polio. His soft spoken, slightly stuttering, eyes wandering all over the place delivery was a sight to behold as he expressly told our audience really just how uninformed he is about the ‘vaccinations’ he injects, as it didn’t even appear that he believed the BS he was peddling.
Now for the actual data the CDC reports on their site for Idaho’s 2022-2023-vaccination rate of Kindergartners.
In a groundbreaking study of political culture it was demonstrated that of the citizens of all fifty states Idahoans had the least trust in federal authorities of all Americans. Hence the low acceptance of the federally pushed voodoo mandates.
I still think those rates are artificially low. Just like tptb pushed higher rates of covid vaccinations to make it seem like you were the only one who wasn't getting the clot shot. There's a major shift on vaccinations in this country. Big time.
Absolutely. I made the decision over 15 years ago not to vaccinate my children. Back then, I was an outlier and you just didn’t discuss it openly - it would get you heavily harassed to admit it.
There’s definitely been a shift where people are not as die hard with their idolatry of science.
Kudos for you being ahead of the game. I apologized to my adult children for any vaccines given to them. We all avoid the msm medical and dental if at all possible. Screw them.
Great article, and it was written in 2015. Wonder what it would say today as we have sunk even further.
One just needs to use the polio ‘vaccine’ as an example. Polio is caused by DDT, not a virus, yet shots are still being given today. DDT was banned.
Excerpt from article...the rationale behind vaccines... it wouldn’t copy the first line...
vaccinated, dangerous viruses and diseases will spread through society and threaten life itself – the very existence of the human race.
That belief, however, is not backed by objective science. It is simply a belief system, based on historical plagues and what future plagues could potentially do.
It is a belief system that feeds on fear and makes no consideration that there is a God who has ultimate control over his creation. When one looks objectively at the history of diseases and vaccines, however, it is obvious that all these major diseases were already on the decline prior to the development of the vaccine, suggesting that God’s built-in natural immunity was sufficient, and probably superior, to vaccines. (See: An Honest Look at the Historical Evidence that Vaccines Eliminated Diseases)
Ellen, I have seen that referenced many times over the last 3-4 years. FDR’s polio started after he swam in the family pond, but I’m probably simplifying matters. I wish I could reference any one person. Perhaps Dr Lee Merritt has something on her website.
Oh, and they have never isolated a virus that causes polio.
FDR got "polio" shortly after visiting a Boy Scout camp which likely was heavily fumigated with something like DDT as well as was his summer home at Campobello on a marshy low island. He likely also had already fried his immune system in WW1 when he took all the latest jabs to go to Europe to "inspect" things on his fed job tourist trip. The Spanish Flu death cull on that ship, USS Leviathan, was horrendous on his passage home and worse in its next sailing back to France. US soldiers jabbed right before boarding were dying like flies before boarding, enroute, and after arriving in France. FDR got very seriously sick on board with "double pneumonia." https://fdr.blogs.archives.gov/2020/04/28/one-of-the-millions-fdr-and-the-flu-pandemic-of-1918-1920/ . https://www.thehistoryreader.com/world-history/ship-of-death-the-tragic-tale-of-the-uss-leviathan/
Still a lot of people who "trust the experts", though I think that it's getting harder and harder to deny that something is off with the mRNA shots - and that's leading more to question. It's one thing for some stranger many states away to claim injuries. It's another to see people everywhere and close to home dying suddenly or having major health issues pop out of nowhere. There's only so much "that means it's working" that people can swallow before even they have to admit that "this isn't the sort of working we should want".
Yes…. Very true. Many are treated for auto immune diseases and such… which are also skyrocketing. Many infusions are extremely expensive.also. Something is causing havoc on our immune systems. Thankfully pharmaceutical companies come to the rescue (sarcasm)
Wouldn’t be surprised. Pregnant moms are now getting several vaccines, and newborns, less than 1 hour old getting the Heparin B vaccine. Anything to wreck their immune system early!
I lived in Idaho for 7 years and during the convid sham. Idaho's government supported this sham 1000% and so did many of its population. I was refused service and kicked out of FedEx and upon entering a Natural Grocers full of terrified masked people I was given a large badge to wear that was a pathetic apology for not wearing a face diaper due to medical reasons... I still have that stupid pin. I did not put it on and I was so disgusted by all the cowards standing on the colored dots 6 feet apart, eyes narrowed in judgment - that was just the beginning and I knew humanity was going to bend over for this... and they did.
I'm assuming the Natural Grocers was in Boise, which is or headed blue. There's a food coop there too, and vibrant liberal community. I've heard that pronouns are spoken; no nouns or verbs, just pronouns.
Yes, the coop... during convid their policy was no children (if you can believe it). When I first moved there the energy was clean and vibrant... now, it's covered in shadow. The progs move in and run for the local govt seats and then it all turns to sh*t. I'm a little bitter ;)
It's like every other "red" state. The left/right progs move into the most densely populated cities and take over the local government. It is also a college town so that always lends itself to an easy capture of young college minds. It's a recipe that works every time.
I got kicked out of a bookstore because the mask didn’t cover my nose. Yes I wore one when I had to most of the time. But NEVER at home in the car etc, outside, and I didn’t whenever I could get away with it. Looking back on that time, it’s like a bad bad dream
A really bad dream... feels like a dream because, even though the outcome has been injury and death from the jabs, everyone has strangely moved on and the next false flag has been raised, further dividing a public that has abandoned common sense once again in support of more madness.
I visited Boise in 2021 to escape the vax passport stuff … loved it there. Was so strange to see maskless people and to be allowed to enter a restaurant. The Covidian businesses stood out in their absurdly, such as a bookstore with lame signs about please wear a mask because kids under 5 couldn’t be jabbed yet lol. People were mellow and friendly, not terrified and deranged like where I live. Definitely will visit again!
There are definitely degrees of madness. It was very clear to me that the Police Chief (formerly the PC in Portland), the mayor, and all the decision makers were very much behind the agenda. The county representatives were cut out of all decision making as the governor created a select committee to neuter the whole political process and kept extending the "state of emergency" while he collected covid funds. So, just sayin', it wasn't as bad there as other places but it could easily go there as the culture continues to change. Ten years ago it was an awesome place to be...
I bet Boise was just like Salt Lake City, which is where I was. I was so disappointed in the healthy and natural demographic who went all in on restricted breathing and Pharma messiahs. But, I bet the real rural places that were not progressive paradises were doing a better job of keeping it real and old fashioned wholesome.
Okay, so from Boise I ended up in Ogden... and nearly got arrested at the Natural Grocers there (my friend did get arrested). Crazy times... My brother worked at the base and was forced to take the shots or lose his job. My idiot sister actually said he had a choice and didn't see anything wrong with this ultimatum (sigh). The denial then and now still sickens me. Utah based Good Earth grocers was great and never bothered its customers about masks, etc... the alternate health community really disappointed for sure. I do wonder if the smaller towns did better...
They did do better, both in Utah, and also in Minnesota, where I moved to in 2020. Rural is so much better.
The ultimatums, mandates, were not OK, but, I also think it highlights our integrity, our lack of. So many were mandated by their jobs and would use the language of "have to...". I think when you're clear about what you will and will not do, there is no room for coercion; there is only a NO. I had a government job for a stint which thankfully ended, but would have ended due to refusing any mandate anyways. I didn't anguish; I just know it will not happen. I guess I am fortunate in that I have never been wealthy, and know how to live resourcefully and on a very tight budget. I am not so intimidated by ending a bad work relationship.
If the pediatricians really wanted to encourage vaccinations, they would stop lumping covid in with measles and polio. The fact that they do would lead one to believe that they really want to get that covid jab into those children. It might also lead one to wonder were polio and measles as deadly as covid? It's akin saying there is an epidemic of colds and seasonal allergies around the country and it is at the same level of concern as sepsis, what will we do? Do they not see it damages their credibility?
Would be too early to see that correlation, if it was indeed vax-related. You'd need to allow several years for the kids to grow, and then more time to allow them to get diagnosed (or not diagnosed, as the case may be).
Praise God! - the people/ parents of Idaho are waking up. Too bad hell on Earth Oregon can't wake up. That is why half the state if Oregon wants to join Idaho. All I can say is that we remain in this hell hole pointing to the way, the truth & the light.
While I appreciate seeing the news about the blue cities slowly seeing that something may, just possibly, might be ill-advised in a position taken by someone in the past ... they still haven't really seen the root cause for the issues and seem to be insistent that more money from the Federal government will solve the issue. Adams can see that they don't have enough money, but still hasn't felt the pain enough to say "it's time to secure the border". Maybe as more and more NYC dwellers see their high taxes just go into nothing, they'll wake up and start calling for change. Sadly, I think the more sane people from NYC (sane for NYC, anyway) have already fled the city to other areas. I know my family in CT has noticed quite a bit of real estate being sold to former NYC residents.
Peter Schott - I noticed that right away, also. Mayor Adams' solution was wanting more of our tax dollars for his city to cover the costs of his city's choice to welcome all the visitors via the sanctuary city status. Instead of suggesting the abandonment of sanctuary city status and securing the border he goes straight to demanding our tax money to cover the costs of things he/New York are directly responsible for implementing.
Oregon Kathy - Someone in a later comment stated the sanctuary city law came about via an Executive Order by a former mayor (in the 80s?). If so, all Adams has to do to fix the problem is issue an Executive Order - not get our tax money to cover the consequences of decisions made in the past.
How would Adams make up all the "I am so virtuous points because I welcome all" if he rescinds the sanctuary city status. There are a lot of people that have been convinced that "welcome all" is this is the virtuous path. If he rescinded the order that would be a lot of votes and a lot of political clout in Dem circles that he would lose. I do agree with you that would be the way to proceed but then I am not a Dem.
Ok just for the record I doubt highly that Oregonians overwhelmingly passed BM legalizing drugs. We are 40 yr Oregonian residents transplanted to Florida in 2020. Oregon has been an election cheat state for most of its 40-50 yr mail in ballot experiment. It is ground zero where they practiced how to cheat. IMO. While oregon is definitely full of liberal idiocy when California began invading back in the 80’s I highly doubt most of these stupid ass ballot measure really passed. Part of the cheating comes by way of verbiage in the voters guide to deliberately confuse people so they don’t know what their yes or no vote actually means. It’s not just on Election Day (month 🙄). If they did legit pass it was only Portland and Eugene that voted for it. And the ones that actually did vote for the stupidity -they deserve what they have gotten. Shame on them! The rest of the innocents that voted against all this are soldiers in a war and have been fighting the good fight for a long time. They are the heros!
RJ - also in “ILL”inois - The “Chicago Way” of dead people voting has been alive & well since as long as I can remember (tongue in cheek there in the “alive” part.
But for columnist Dick Hughes, the news wasn't all great.
"Not getting enough media attention was what State Economist Mark McMullen and Senior Economist Josh Lehner said about Oregon’s population growth: It’s stalled. Deaths will continue to outnumber births for the foreseeable future. Any population growth must come from people moving here. But more folks are exiting Oregon."
And a stalled population puts a lid on economic growth.
If they couldn't cheat with mail in and sign up day of and college students and paid voters and nursing home cheaters and internet down and computer and printer glitches... I think the statistics would be different.
I witnessed these things. I swea one woman voted twice in the exact same clothes , same glasses, same height in the same polling place and I thought sure she'd get caught but maybe I was wrong. 🙈
That sounds better but still too high, I think. And that’s from living there, knowing the landscape, knowing a lot people in what used to be a conservative community. I say “used to” but really still is, but you wouldn’t know it because the ones who yell the loudest are the crazy liberals and they try to intimidate people into staying silent…which has worked. There really is still a silent majority.
I wish we could get an accurate representation of the numbers. 😔
NAB - until pastors, priests, rabbis, clerics, etc & folks who claim Christian virtues & morals stand up, speak up & are truthful about what this baby harvesting parts industry is - the horrific facts of this abortion-on-demand up to & including the day of birth will continue no matter how much money is put into this culture of death for profit.
I have thought the same thing here in Michigan. Even the most pro choice 20, 30, and 40 something’s would not vote for abortion to birth, or taking away parental health rights for children 12-18.. The language is so murky it sounds logical. Everything will be fought out in courts. That is the plan.
I thought the same exact thing. Once they know they can cheat they will do it to any race and any measure. Who knows what the people REALLY wanted. Although I agree it wasn’t abortion right to birth and removing parental rights to children. What a crock. And we have family in Michigan and go visit often so we are familiar with that landscape too.
They, the supporters of legalization are running ads on the radio extolling how wonderful it is to legalize hard drugs because it helps get users the help they need and keeps them out of jail where they can’t get help. It’s a very convincing lie.
They must be feeling the push, the backlash of legalization.
I wish I hadn’t voted to legalize pot all those years ago. The fallout has been horrible. Colorado has been feeling it big time citing an increase in traffic accidents. Weren’t they the first?
Do not be deceived. GOD is not mocked. Whatever a man sows, so shall he reap. Believers and unbelievers alike.
I’m sure they are pouring tons of money in to market to the people how great it is. Especially young people. Don’t believe your lying eyes sort of thing. They will douse marketing outlet with the lies so anyone who doesn’t have a brain will vote their way simply because they heard of it 🤦🏼♀️ just like name recognition.
Yes, Colorado was first and the information I keep hearing there (from years ago now) is how awful it is.
I know people don’t want the govt with their grubby hands in the pot industry but I’m sorry-it all leads to destruction one way or another. Any mind altering, personality altering, cognitive altering substance leads to destruction. And yes, look what alcohol and pain pills do. And I sometimes have a drink and have taken pain pills after surgeries. I get it. This could spur on a whole huge backlash against not legalizing pot, but it all starts somewhere and in the hands of a broken world with broken people-dulling the emotional pain, and escaping reality isn’t the answer. Put the money aside. Is it really beneficial to have our young people high all the time? To have them checked out? Legalization just blurs the line of what’s right/wrong or acceptable/not acceptable. I could go on but I won’t. Too much destruction happening all in the name of “it’s an herb and God created herbs” 🙄 whatever.
Mr. Childers, Would appreciate your perspective on the Florida Special Grand Jury called to investigate “any and all wrongdoing” with respect to the COVID-19 vaccines. I believe that Gov DeSantis called for this Grand Jury in December 2022, and the Florida Supreme Court approved it in January or February 2023.
We understand that the Grand Jury process is secret, but based on your professional understanding of the process, is there hope to hear something in the next few months? Also, is it unusual to not hear anything about what is being subpoenaed?
The WSJ is as much of the MSM as the NYT. The news section is as worthless as the NYT. There is only reason to read the WSJ and that is the opinion pages because they still have independence. It will soon be gone given that the Murdoch boys are in control. The future lies in things like this substack or Bari Weiss’s The Free Press also found on Substack.
Wasn't it Schroedinger that had a thing about cats and boxes? Heisenberg was the guy who said you couldn't know everything about particles. IIRC, one of those experiments showed particles shot at a board through a slit would behave randomly-ish if not observed, but if you observed them going through the slit they performed exactly the same each time. Something about being observed changed the behavior. Can't know position _and_ velocity at the same time.
You are correct about Schroedinger’s cats, but the double slit experiment shows that light is both a wave and a particle. You are also correct about Heisenberg principle stating you cannot know position and momentum at the same time. Jeff was correct in his point stating that the act of observing an particle changes the particle, which is what Heisenberg said.
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and the observation principle illustrated by Schroedinger's cat are related but two different things: "The uncertainty principle has been frequently confused with the observer effect, evidently even by its originator, Werner Heisenberg.[15] The uncertainty principle in its standard form describes how precisely we may measure the position and momentum of a particle at the same time"
My mistake - it's been a couple of decades now. I thought that double-slit experiment also tied in briefly with Heisenberg when a camera was put on the particles so you could see what was going on and the output changed from random/spread to pretty much a straight line. I do remember that it's just crazy that seeing something that basic changes outcomes.
I'm sure there's some sort of tie-in to voting here as well, but that's eluding me at the moment.... ;)
Long ago we found a deformed deaf kitten which we adopted and named Schrodinger, "Dinger" for short, sort of "ding dong Heisenberg" There used to be a great T shirt "Heisenberg May Have Slept Here" I thought it was a good shot at an analogy, though it might be that "priming" more literally describes what is going on. In Cognitive Science, which is usually reductionist materialist, so one wants to throw out the overarching paradigm, they use religious and disease and mortality "primes" to test responses, and come up with findings about those. People watch less porn on Sunday, for instance, just because it is Sunday and they are "primed" to think of God and religion. If a judge gets a disgust/disease prime, according to these researchers, he, she or zhe, will deliver harsher sentences. The Angelus Bell in Ireland is a prime to think of God and transcendence and the divine.
I wish there were a way to prime people not not get trapped in the doctrines of their religious denomination and in the arguments over that, how many angels on the head of a pin, and band together in our shared awareness of human divinity. Or a prime played hourly in the halls of Congress that reminded them of what they were elected for and to whom they should be responsible. Or we could just waterboard them in a big vat of mrna--just kidding! lol.
“Or we could just waterboard them in a big vat of mrna--just kidding! lol.” <- I’m not kidding. That would be GREAT! So sweet that you adopted the kitten.
This is pure evil and diabolical. Did Big Pharma clone Dr. Mengele to come up with these toxic products? It's a great two-fer for them--we give them piles of money while volunteering to reduce our population. The Nazis would have been so proud.
Lol, and that's what you can't get through to them.. that there's a big difference between "ingesting" something, which then goes through the alimentary canal where it can be filtered out like it's supposed to, and "injection" where it bypasses the entire protective system we have to filter out that kind of thing.
Unfortunately, brick walls tend to listen better...
Absolutely disgusting!!! Yet another reason that the FBI and the other alphabet agencies need to be completely dismantled!!! Our tax dollars at work!!!!!
That's because too many have elevated MAGA extremist to such villainous status and at the same time have accepted a softened stance towards "alternative sexualities" that we justify such a redirection of resources. My goodness.
Every single one of those FBI agents will be held accountable for every children that is hurt because of their neglect. God knows exactly what is in their selfish heart and they will pay accordingly.
Jeff, I’m so thankful for you! I am so glad you’re in the fight. I’m so thankful for the work that you’re doing regarding the PREP act!! This is INCREDIBLE!! I can’t understand why it took so long for an attorney to do this but I digress. We will pray that there is a reversal. Along those lines, you might want to consider a security detail. I mean this is all out war against BIG PHARMA!! I’m shocked, really. Reckoning is coming. I’m sure it cannot come fast enough for every parent whose child died or was injured from fake vaccines. It’s truly one of the biggest crimes in our country. It’s like a vaccine wild, Wild West. Sacrificing our children for profit. It’s so sad. May the PREP act die and go to hell.
ERRATA
— Schroedinger's cat properly attributed (thanks smart C&Cers)
Wass gonna say...but you could have made a Breaking Bad reference !
I immediately thought of Breaking Bad, too!
Heisenberg!
Right?! “Blown up bigger than a....” That kinda thing...
Isn’t that Hindenburg? 🎈
....oh and I was thinking Lab Explosion....but yeah The Hindenburg Principle might be a new win!!
Or is it 99 RedBalloons?!
99 Luftballoons I think
The Heisenberg Effect sounds a lot like Ring of Gyges in Plato’s Republic, where the ring allows the wearer to become invisible and when someone is invisible, they will do things they wouldn't otherwise do when people could see them doing something wrong.
I thought that was the Gollum Effect.
It's called the "Precious Postulate" in the language of Mordor, which I will not utter here.
Jeff, you are also totally confused the Heisenberg's indeterminacy principle with the observer effect. I think the latter fits your case as an analogy better. So leave Heisenberg completely alone :-)
Yes, as I recall Heisenberg's principle was that you could know *either* the position, *or* the velocity of a particle, but not both. Or else I'm confusing that with yet another quantum principle... the perils of a popular-level vague familiarity with a subject.
Heisenberg and Schrodinger are driving in a car. A police officer pulls them over for speeding and approaches Heisenberg in the driver's seat and asks, "do you know how fast your were going?" Heisenberg answers "No, but I can tell you exactly where I was at the time." The officer thinks this odd answer constitutes grounds for a search of the vehicle and demands the keys. After examining the car he comes up to Schrodinger in the passenger seat and says, "Did you know you have a dead cat in your trunk?" Schrodinger exclaims, "Well I do NOW!"
That's actually quite a neat explanation of those quantum principles!
One of my all time favorite jokes. I can't take credit for it but it is interesting to gauge peoples' reactions. It seems to function as both a joke and a test.
Another favorite:
Argon walks into a bar. Pointing to the door, the bartender shouts angrily, "We don't serve noble gases in here!!"
Argon...doesn't react.
Phew! Thought I was missing something...
"My firm is currently preparing a major case challenging the Constitutionality of the PREP Act — the federal statute that shields Pfizer and Moderna from liability for their defective vaccine products.".
YES!!!!! Thank you. I've been expecting a tsunami of suits for a couple years now...
Big pharma needs to go broke and be prosecuted to the fullest. Crimes against humanity.
What is needed is to have the courage to remove all immunities of all corporate and governmental actors.
After all , they are not curing anything. Period.
More and more is coming out about the preventive cancer screenings! Most are fake and produce nothing but fear and rushing you into the cancer treatment death merry go round.
All greed!
And they expose you to toxic radiation, which, unsurprisingly, can cause cancer.
I’m done with those too. I’d have to have a pretty good reason. My mother in law died from ovarian cancer. Medical records showed the elderly doc removed the wrong ovary. The doc was dead by the time it was noted. I had a hip replacement last year. They marked the leg and asked me which one before they put me under.
I've read about people marking their own bodies before they go to the hospital, one in fact had written "NOT THIS ONE" when he was to have a kidney removed
I joked I would do the same and add/-“F* this up and I’ll find you”
omg. Hilarious. (Sorta.) What next? Write "THIS SIDE UP" on one's stomach pre-op?
Agree 💯
Nutrition is the only thing that cures disease caused by nutritional deficiencies.
Yup. Been on that path for years. Even the functional medicine doc has missed that. They are ALL about supplements in most cases. I’m not returning except for a blood snd thyroid panel in February. I’m on a pro—metabolic energy journey now. Done totally with IF, low carb, keto and the carnivore misrepresentations. We have been deceived. No surprise. 😑🤔
look up functional nutrition alliance, I am currently enrolled in that course and am excited about it! This would be something you probably could do and work with others!
Thank you. I will.
I had almost given up on my blood pressure ever being brought under control when inept billing by my last physician caused me to find a wonderfully competent nurse practitioner that followed my lead into the successful application of a tiny dose of a loop diuretic, curing the problem with two office visits. Since Medicare insists on a paid annual wellness visit and my new prescription requires mild monitoring of my potassium level (which isn't likely to be a problem for a dedicated carnivore like me), I'll be happy to comply.
I've had BP that is somewhat too high since I was in my 20s (I'm 74 now), no real explanation for it except perhaps a familial thing as I am not at all overweight, normal to low normal for my height, and no other conditions to deal with. My doctor tried different things for the BP, all of which I rejected, but we finally ended up with a very modest combo pill that sounds like the loop diuretic you described called Triamterene, which is defined like this:
Triamterene is a potassium-sparing diuretic often used in combination with thiazide diuretics for the treatment of high blood pressure or swelling. The combination with hydrochlorothiazide, is known as hydrochlorothiazide/triamterene.
This has kept my slightly elevated (so they say) BP in line for at least the last 15 years. I get no side effects except if I miss 2 or 3 days taking it I get horrible dry mouth, and I'm thinking my electrolyte levels get off balance, and then when I resume taking the pills it takes several days sometimes to get rid of the dry mouth. So once you are taking the Triamterene, it's best to take it without missing a day. They're extremely cheap...between $3 and $10 for a 90 day supply.
Which Loop diuretic?
There is no money in a cure.
Can you imagine the number TV commercials from Class Action Litigation Firms, we will bombarded with, once the legal floodgates are open. I will welcome it.
🤣😑
I’m not defending pharma here, but keep in mind that pharma is a business. What’s the goal of business?- to create a product or service that makes money. Some businesses do that ethically, some do it unethically.
The real failure is that of government to protect its citizens- which should be the goal of government. This is where great legal minds (like Jeff) need to harness the power of laser focused surgical exploration and excision of the cancerous socialism that created this debacle. If pharma experiences collateral damage in the process- so be it, but collusion with government and pharma needs to be blown apart and government retooled to do the job it was created to do.
Please
Annie - we’ll... at least the Bigg P”HARM”us Quackcene Industry.
There are some drugs in the Pharmaceutical industry that are necessary.
Probably less than you think.
I think most people would find they can do without all of Big Pharma's wares.

With Jeff and ICAN's attorney, Aaron Siri, both working on this, the feds don't stand a chance! It's the attorney dream team!
Remember “If the glove don’t fit, you must acquit?” Johnny Cochrane proved that nursery rhymes are persuasive. Vax-injury dream teams will remove all doubt from the minds of jurors with vapid lines like these. We’re going to need a lot of them.
Their vax has failed; they must be jailed.
Schills of Big Pharma now must reap Karma.
Cohorts of Fauci each earned an ouchie.
Health taker, meet rainmaker.
Damage our communities and you get no immunities.
Good ones!
Those are awesome 😁
Yes. Just ask Siri!
And what is ICANN??
Informed Consent Action Network. One 'N'
https://icandecide.org/
See “thehighwire.com”.
They are an intl web register where you must legally include your mailing address and personal info when registering a domain name. I think to make sure you are a real human? Like a phone book of sorts 👀
I was wondering if that was the organization he was referring to, but it doesn’t make much sense to me for them to be bringing a lawsuit.
Do you know what the second "N" stands for in Jeff's reference to ICANN?
It's a mistake. Maybe Jeff was thinking about our friend, Benjamin Two NNs. 😁
Let's just hope Judges don't dismiss these cases on random 'standing' excuses as they have with the multiple voter fraud cases. The evidence will never be presented.
And what about the theory that the Dept of Defense was behind it all (Warp Speed), Pfizer and Moderna acting as the frontmen/distributor. In fact, I think at some point Pfizer actually said that they could not be sued because everything they did was approved and at the behest of the Government. If the government knew and approved then it was OK.
I've heard Attny John Barnes talk about this vis a vis his lawsuit.
Lots of good news, as if our patience and pressure is paying off.
-Sanctuary cities are backsliding on their failed policies.
-Ukraine war is drying up now that the West moves on.
-Trump is leading all polls, indicating a MAGA 2024 blowout.
Hahaha 😂 😆 😂 to NYC and all its dumb libbies and normies. Cuts in services. Library reduction - which means less drag queen story time! Oh the horror. Also, adams wants the parents to volunteer to provide security for the children at school
Hahaha 😂😂 Just some of the great things that happen when you vote dem. Reap what you sow!
Less homeless in the libraries on sundays I’m a retired librarian. Our old library was near the last stop on the commuter rail to snd from Chicago. We would get homeless all week except Sunday of course. Closed. We built a new one over a mile away and no homeless came then that we could reckon at anytime. .
In my experience, having the homeless in libraries might be better than having more staff members than patrons...
Having homeless in libraries is precisely why THIS patron stopped visiting a local library in Oregon.
Worked in a suburban Chicago library for a few years.. big homeless problem because of their mental health issues - creepy men would try to watch porn on the computers - the poor reference librarians had to keep dealing with that, chasing them off the computers. Had a bag lady who would just pee all over herself and then sit on the upholstered chairs. Would not use our brand new, spotlessly clean restrooms. Had to escort her out when we closed at 9 pm every night. The stench made your eyes water. It took an entire year but eventually the library got her permanently banned - she had been given a years worth of chances and all kinds of social services and money and whatnot. And the absolute crap we got when the wokesters found out she was banned - oh the threats we got - it was unbelievable. She really needed psychiatric care and they were taking up a collection to give her restaurant gift cards. She started hanging out at the bus shelter across from the library and then we really started to get complaints about how terrible we were. Our tax dollars at work. Not to mention the garbage that passes for literature these days. I feel sorry for kids.
Ugh I love how these pretend virtuous people are all up in arms about things like this and “care” when it isn’t something they have to deal with personally 🙄🙄🙄🤬🤬🤬
I know, the children! Mostly, all They offer them these days is electronic devices, not even books!
Big E, seems we Oregonians lost you to Idaho. I just subscribed to your substack and based on what I'm reading, it's Oregons loss and Idaho's gain. At leat I can follow you here and on your substack.
Just subscribed to your Substack Big E!
Having been legally homeless since 1985, I have never been denied access to a library or any business desiring my patronage.
I was recently in NYC for a work trip. I couldn't help but wonder who is paying for all the homeless and dregs of society standing around on the sidewalks in the middle of the day wearing sweats or pajamas and smoking weed. Obviously, those individuals are not paying for their constant stream of weed themselves. Yet, they're all going to town on weed all day long. No wonder the city is broke. It's become a hostel operator and drug dealer who doesn't understand the basic economics of costs/revenue.
Also a sh*thole.
It really is. It's always been gross, but that's been ratcheted up a few notches since I was last there a decade or so ago. The crime, litter, urine, trash, poop, vomit, homelessness, and drug use is all on display constantly. Not just weed, but guys doing meth on the sidewalk as well. Looking out at it from 30 floors up you can see what must have been an incredible feat of engineering at one time. Now, it's just dead and decaying. The streets and sidewalks are crap, the subway is disgusting and barely functional, there are construction vehicles and signs everywhere...but seemingly no actual construction being done. All while a bunch of zombies walk around acting like none of that decay is happening. Very depressing place to be. Very out of touch with healthy living and values, but also just out of sync with human nature itself.
Wonder if all this has tempered the arrogance of my NYC friends, acquaintances now. We parted ways over politics of course, and I’m in Texas now, which to New Yorkers is nowhere. They voted for this s*it show. Who’s smarter now? Sung to the tune of....
I doubt it. Zombies don't know they're zombies. Delusional people don't know they're delusional. I hate to sound overly judgmental, but I really do believe it's a form of delusion to ignore the crime, violence, excessive costs, unnaturalness, and decay of the physical reality surrounding oneself in order to have access to "stuff." Which really just means having lots of overpriced restaurants and music venues to go to. Venues that can be found in any city, only without all the extra cost and physical assault. It's as if they pay 3x more and put up with 100x times more nonsense to be near what their peers consider "cool" "stuff." Which just seems incredibly superficial, ego-driven, and delusional to me.
We had a saying growing up in Lancaster PA - when a couple of new Yorkers move in, their goes the neighborhood.
Cuts in services.... does that mean city employees will be fired or will it be just a reduction in services to the legal residents of the city?
My guess is they keep the same amount of staff... lower workload, same pay. What’s not to like?? SMH
Like when the dem mayors go to Biden to 'complain' .....not pressuring him to close the border, but to GIVE THEM MORE money to spend on the invasion force:-)
better them than the penis-piano-playing "democratic" president of Ukraine - or is he "dictator"
yes, more Fake $$$$ for processing, housing, services, and oh they want to work to pay back for the hospitality shown... do the bug-food processing plants need new wave of workers that can be unionized?
Cuts like trans-surgeries may be painful and perhaps lasting
When you reduce services, HR will work to reduce staff since there not enough work for the staff. It is not good for either the staff and those who receive benefits.
probably just a reduction in services: the legal residents are not unionized, whereas the city employees have a strong union
Could be both.
I guess it's time for DeSantis and Abbot to send more busses of illegals to NYC. NYC is lovely at the holidays.
they can enjoy the Rockefeller Plaza Tree and all the window-shopping
And their luxury 5-star hotel
Plus they pay enormous taxes and now they're getting even less for their money!
Provide security with what?? The guns Adams and his ilk don’t want regular citizens to have? Maybe they could get a social worker to provide security by talking any potential perpetrators out of their violence 🙄
Isn’t it interesting that when the illegals drain your bank account, taxes dry up because you drove out small and large businesses, and you try to recover by making the children suffer, take away security measures, and cut education. 🤨 How about cut off the illegals living in 5 star hotels and getting free everything! How about you start there! The goal? Make the peasants suffer for govt stupidity and make it hurt as much as possible. They hate the American people. How much more proof do brain dead people need. 🤦🏼♀️
I think its important to remember what is really draining our bank accounts: the military industrial complex.
And big pharma
That budget is dwarfed by Social Security and Medicare.
I still pay into S/S retirement because I have a sole proprietorship - but it does concern me a great deal that most of my income is my S/S retirement benefits. I pray about re-entering the workforce (which I did for about 10 years in my late 60's, early 70's...but I know I don't have the physical stamina to stand for even 4 hours a day anymore! I'm just now looking for a REMOTE customer service position that I can do for under 30 hours a week (that's the sticking point--all of the ones I've been approached for interviews want a FULL TIME worker--I just cannot sit OR stand for more than 2 hours at a pop!!
You should start selling things online. I’m in my 60’s, have been selling on EBay for 25 years. On average I make $2000-$3000 a month with very little effort. There are other platforms as well, it may be the answer for you. Start with items in your own house/closet.
I DO sell things--that's what my sole proprietorship is all about. I had a B2B website for over 19 years and in 2019 everything just dried up (due to Amazon mostly getting into 3rd party Sellers buying into using their platform). I would have to stock what I sell (maintenance products for industrial applications) and I did stock the rivets that my #1 client bought from me for many years. I lost that biz in 2014....so I mostly "drop ship" what I sell. I have friends who sell on Ebay and it is mostly "pin money" for them. You're doing very well, Gigi--what items do you sell on Ebay?
The budget is dwarfed by the military.
At least we have paid into Social Security and Medicare.
Social Security + Medicare + 'Health' + other social services = 57% (excluding 'commerce and housing credit)
Defense = 19%
The Constitution doesn't authorize the federal government to do any of the 57%.
It specifically authorizes the 19% (but that's only that high because of the corrupt relationship between defense contractors and politicians)
Source (scroll down to 'spending categories, by percent):
https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/americas-finance-guide/federal-spending/
The details:
Soc Sec 25%
Defense 19%
Net interest 16%
'Health' 15%
Income security 7%
Medicare 5%
Education, training, employment, social services 5%
Commerce and housing credit 4%
Veterans benefits and services 3%
Transportation 2%
Other <1%
Notice they will cut all sorts of things, but never their own salaries and benefits!
🎯
Yes, I notice that NYC's worse than useless, truly toxic Department of Health and Mental Hygiene isn't on the list for cuts. Why am I not surprised?
If I had won my campaign for City Council, defunding that agency and taking the pharma shill of a Health Commissioner to task would have been high on my agenda, even if the city's budget had been overflowing with money.
I sooooo wish you would have won. Thank you for being courageous and running. I hope you try again!
In Portland they are holding Black Friday sales in Empty WalMart buildings this year?
You have to call it African American Friday there though 😑
As the article stated, they actually passed a law that *mandates* providing things to "undocumented immigrants". They are screwed until they wake up and repeal that law.
NY citizens should take notes from Jeff and start hassling their legislators (but I doubt they read C&C).
Exactly the question I’ve asked watching them “walk” up through Mexico hundreds of miles 🙄 in their designer clothes and shoes 🙄 talking on cell phones. 🤔 Who is paying for those cell phones? I want to know who gave them rides and dropped them off before the cameras started rolling….
Or major upcoming voter fraud. Please check on me if that happens. I will not b ok and will need backup lol.
They will need a lot of fraud to overcome the supposed red wave. In 2016, Trump led none of these polls, yet won many of the contested states. For 2024 for the first time he's literally leading all of the pols by +4 and more.
And on top of that, polls cannot be trusted. I would assume that the actual support for Trump is much greater than what the "polls" indicate.
Thinking we can COUNT on that being true!
They felt they had the fix in in 2016 but vastly under estimated his support and failed to hold him off.
In 2020 they felt they had the fix in but again, his numbers were overwhelming so much so that they stopped the counting in 6 states at the exact same time and took weeks to print up fake ballots to successfuly put Biden in office.
In 2022 they repeated their success. Election rigging by Dems has been active since 1985, possibly earlier than that but 1985 is the earliest year that records were still available in any quantity.
Will they do it again in 2024? Of course. For crime that pays is crime that stays as Catherine Austin Fitts has observed. Should you vote, absolutely, no question make it as difficult as possible for them. Will they get away with it, probably. Who do you see stopping them? History teaches us, coups are not voted out.
I agree with what you say until the end. You say to vote anyway, but then give an argument for not voting. Don't give up before there's an actual loss.
"This is a very important lesson. You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.” – VADM James Stockdale, USN
I understand your reasoning, my goal was to state what I see as the right thing to do and the plausible outcome. I wasn't giving up nor would I encourage others to. :)
Maybe it was Jeff, not sure who wrote recently that Trump and Republicans are working on the election rigging problem in a big way.

@BFM I love your optimism, but we KNOW there was massive fraud in 2020, and not nearly enough has been done to rectify it. Oh sure, a few states have repaired the ridiculous laws they passed in the name of “safety” during the pandemic (spit), but until elections are severed from electronics, we will get the leaders “they” select. And if you complain you can just wait for the knock on your door to go join the J6ers in the gulag. How do you see it turning out any other way?
"until elections are severed from electronics"
I like that! Punchy and it's exactly what we need.
Electronic voting is only half of it. The other half is mail in ballots and "dirty" voting rolls.
Yes! Phantom ballots/dirty rolls, which could be eliminated if we had in-person, voter ID, paper ballots, counted on-site the day of voting, and no absentee ballots allowed without a verifiable reason, like military or handicapped/ill voters. Without those safeguards, legitimate elections are a distant memory, unfortunately.
The other way I see it turning out is no election because our Commander In Chief, Donald Trump and the Military that is actually governing, will declare selective martial law and we will watch military tribunals to convict the criminals and then begin the process of reconstituting our Constitutional Goveernment.
I’m red pilled. Pretty sure in my mind now I will vote for him. I’ve been wobbling.
Absolutely we have to rally behind him. He (and let's face it, almost all of us) greatly underestimated what we were up against in 2016 and even in 2020. He won't make the same mistakes again.
Why did he make them in 2016?
Vonu, you're asking why a human being made mistakes? Read the first part of the Book of Genesis in the Bible. Everything flows from that. We all make mistakes, large and small. Is there such a thing as a never-made-a-mistake office-holder? Is perfection a reasonable standard? Why do you think you know someone else's motivations, as you seem to imply you do?
I answered that I'm what you're responding to but I'm not going to change your mind so I'm not engaging further.
Who knows but he is 7 years wiser now.
Part of the plan: to expose the corruption so We The People could see it and and support change and not rebel and burn down the country.
Trump did my red pilling by failing to keep the campaign promises he made in 2016.
These two points alone are all I need to decide to vote for Trump:
1) He left office with less money than he had coming into office.
2) He is the one the Demonrats fear the most and the one they are obsessed with destroying.
This tells me he is our weapon.
🎯

Losing money is a reason to win an election?
Everyone that fears him does so because he is a loose cannon on a ship on high seas.
I don't fear crooked elected officials, I abhor them.
Trump has never been as much a weapon as he has always been a tool of the elite.
You poor thing. 🥱Were you asleep during those 4 years?
Let us not forgot he got rolled by the permanent state.
OK, how many presidents have managed to all their campaign promises? I'll admit, if you judge by that metric, Trump WAS disappointing. But to vote for BIDEN as a result????
I have never voted for Biden and if you make that specious accusation again, I will ignore you henceforth.
Exactly politico Phill! We cannot trust these polls because we know they lie but the fact that they cannot hide that Trump is leading makes me laugh. There is no way in the world Biden has anywhere near 40. But they have to keep it close so they can cheat and say well, it was always a close run. In 2016, Trump said he was going to win, in 2020 He said they were going to steal it, for 2024 He said they are not going to rig it. I am hoping they have a plan to stop the steal. Also remember the polls had HRC leading 98 to less than 2. Ha not even close!
All states need to use paper ballets and have more security watching every move for elections!!! Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is not the answer.
And mail in ballots only for the handicapped and overseas military.
And you believe these polls?
It's just data. But as aggregates, they do indicate voter direction.
As aggregates, they indicate what the poll's funders wanted them to.
Bingo.
Remember google swayed millions of voters in the last election. I'm sure that will happen again...
I just have to weigh in as another Susan. Cheers!
What if the polls are lying by showing Trump ahead when he's not really? Goal being to assure Trump gets nominated because he would be easier to beat than DeSantis. It's a distinct possibility.
Interesting with the narrative shift about the Ukraine, we haven’t heard a peep from B2N and Horsey. Be interesting to see their take on Israel/Hamas.
Funny you should mention B2N... there is a person on here today that reminds me of him except it is about Trump instead of Putin. Talks and replies just like B2N. Maybe he is task with election stuff now.
BFM, It is SO scary and insane that the best you got is a choice between Biden (demented and already half dead) and Trump (a cheating narcissistic buffoon).
And what's even worse is - you all play along with it! No wonder the US is going down the pan. God help us all !
These are our options. Dr. Demento or Dr. Vaxx.
Out of a population of 320 Million there MUST be better options! Your $elections are totally corrupt and broken!
For sure. Two sides of the same coin.
But is he leading the polls?
Fed
"Fed?"
You are being to remind me of Benny 2N... are you two related?
I have never heard of Benny 2N.
New identity. Identifies as...
I think Trump could be leading 100 to 1 and the demoRATs would still win. No one in a place of authority has taken voter fraud seriously enough to do anything about it.
just like the '22 "red blowout" did(n't) happen
When it's a fraudulent vote count, you get an installed president. It was a landslide until the flood gates of fake votes poured in!
I hear ya. Although the wave is bigger now. Mainly as Biden's negatives are historical lows.
Did you see the unhinged video of the dude Michael Rappaport who’s a “celebrity” in his own mind 🙄 who was bat shit Trump hating since 2016 then covid crazy vaxx pushing biden supporter all over social media since 2020??? As he goes off the rails and calls Trump a bunch of nasty names he says he’s gonna probably vote for him because we need this stuff figured out and then proceeds to trash the one guy he says could fix it all. Hahahahaha His idiocy comes through loud and clear. It’s on Telegram but I’m sure it’s on X too.
That guy is unhinged.
Oh and that’s just one of his unhinged videos. 😝 He has TDS so bad he can barely be coherent. 🤦🏼♀️
Biden still holds 30-40% approval; these are the functionally mentally ill who need oversight and care or sent to Ukraine for asylum should Trump not get cheated and pull off a win with Putin's help in 2024. I will personally pay for Ken Buck to relocate from my state of Coloazuldo.
I wouldn't underestimate Kennedy. He's polling well in battleground states and has the highest favorability rating of the three as well...Time will tell
Based on current government run media, Russia is conducting a Peaceful Protest.
YES!!!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
The SMO in Ukraine may be "drying up" in the Western MSM, but in the battle field reality it has entered into a 3rd phase. But enough of my yakkin....Big Serge has a decent overview and SitRep.

Great site for Ukraine war info.
Military has Combat Camera... just saying that MSM / journalist are pushing an agenda that supports propaganda.

I'm not sure how this relates...
Adding a Heisenberg Effect on local pushback occurring with Pediatric Vaccination:
This morning, on my KTVB 7 (NBC affiliate) in Boise they reported the following: “More and more parents are choosing NOT to vaccinate their kids across the country, but none more than here in Idaho… The following numbers are from the CDC specifically for Kindergartners in the 2022-2023 school year: The report shows that Idaho leads the country with a 12.1% exemption rate… This is the highest exemption rate ever recorded in the US, with the CDC’s recommended rate of exemption being at 5% or lower.”
The local affiliate then used Dr. Michael Wheaton, a Pediatrician with St. Alphonsus Medical Center to push childhood injections in order “to prevent” diseases like COVID-19, measles, and polio. His soft spoken, slightly stuttering, eyes wandering all over the place delivery was a sight to behold as he expressly told our audience really just how uninformed he is about the ‘vaccinations’ he injects, as it didn’t even appear that he believed the BS he was peddling.
Now for the actual data the CDC reports on their site for Idaho’s 2022-2023-vaccination rate of Kindergartners.
• 2-dose MMR = only 81.3% received
• DTaP = only 81.0% received
• Polio = only 81.8% received
• VAR = only 80.7% received
https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/wr/mm7245a2.htm
I’m proud of Idaho for having the highest exemption rate but the vaccination rate of 80-81% is still too high!
In a groundbreaking study of political culture it was demonstrated that of the citizens of all fifty states Idahoans had the least trust in federal authorities of all Americans. Hence the low acceptance of the federally pushed voodoo mandates.
Voodoo mandates.... I like that!
They’re clearly one of the states with the most critical thinkers! God bless them for not trusting the federal government!
I still think those rates are artificially low. Just like tptb pushed higher rates of covid vaccinations to make it seem like you were the only one who wasn't getting the clot shot. There's a major shift on vaccinations in this country. Big time.
Absolutely. I made the decision over 15 years ago not to vaccinate my children. Back then, I was an outlier and you just didn’t discuss it openly - it would get you heavily harassed to admit it.
There’s definitely been a shift where people are not as die hard with their idolatry of science.
https://created4health.org/medicine-idolatry-in-the-twenty-first-century/
Kudos for you being ahead of the game. I apologized to my adult children for any vaccines given to them. We all avoid the msm medical and dental if at all possible. Screw them.
I found an honest dentist..not all natural or holistic, but not lying to do unnecessary procedures for $ either.
🤯
Great article, and it was written in 2015. Wonder what it would say today as we have sunk even further.
One just needs to use the polio ‘vaccine’ as an example. Polio is caused by DDT, not a virus, yet shots are still being given today. DDT was banned.
Excerpt from article...the rationale behind vaccines... it wouldn’t copy the first line...
vaccinated, dangerous viruses and diseases will spread through society and threaten life itself – the very existence of the human race.
That belief, however, is not backed by objective science. It is simply a belief system, based on historical plagues and what future plagues could potentially do.
It is a belief system that feeds on fear and makes no consideration that there is a God who has ultimate control over his creation. When one looks objectively at the history of diseases and vaccines, however, it is obvious that all these major diseases were already on the decline prior to the development of the vaccine, suggesting that God’s built-in natural immunity was sufficient, and probably superior, to vaccines. (See: An Honest Look at the Historical Evidence that Vaccines Eliminated Diseases)
I never heard that connection between polio and DDT! Do you have a link or reference I could read? Thank you.

Thanks!
Ellen, I have seen that referenced many times over the last 3-4 years. FDR’s polio started after he swam in the family pond, but I’m probably simplifying matters. I wish I could reference any one person. Perhaps Dr Lee Merritt has something on her website.
Oh, and they have never isolated a virus that causes polio.
Wonder if google has censored this info?
FDR got "polio" shortly after visiting a Boy Scout camp which likely was heavily fumigated with something like DDT as well as was his summer home at Campobello on a marshy low island. He likely also had already fried his immune system in WW1 when he took all the latest jabs to go to Europe to "inspect" things on his fed job tourist trip. The Spanish Flu death cull on that ship, USS Leviathan, was horrendous on his passage home and worse in its next sailing back to France. US soldiers jabbed right before boarding were dying like flies before boarding, enroute, and after arriving in France. FDR got very seriously sick on board with "double pneumonia." https://fdr.blogs.archives.gov/2020/04/28/one-of-the-millions-fdr-and-the-flu-pandemic-of-1918-1920/ . https://www.thehistoryreader.com/world-history/ship-of-death-the-tragic-tale-of-the-uss-leviathan/
They are now questioning FDR polio diagnosis. They think it could br Guillaume Barre syndrome- a vaxx side effect.
I have a 17 year old that has never had a vaxci and my oldest, 27, has not had one since she was two.
It's easy!
Thank you for the reference link to medicine idolatry. I found another article there, "The Zionism Cult" of great interest, as well.
MW - thx for the link
Annie - Hallelujah on people waking up to this horrific “Quackcene” “Industry”!
Still a lot of people who "trust the experts", though I think that it's getting harder and harder to deny that something is off with the mRNA shots - and that's leading more to question. It's one thing for some stranger many states away to claim injuries. It's another to see people everywhere and close to home dying suddenly or having major health issues pop out of nowhere. There's only so much "that means it's working" that people can swallow before even they have to admit that "this isn't the sort of working we should want".
I agree! I’m also seeing so many cancer treatment centers popping up, and when I drive by, the parking lots are always full! Anyone else notice this?
There are other drugs, biologics, that are administered at “cancer care” centers. They use the same infusion techniques.
Yes…. Very true. Many are treated for auto immune diseases and such… which are also skyrocketing. Many infusions are extremely expensive.also. Something is causing havoc on our immune systems. Thankfully pharmaceutical companies come to the rescue (sarcasm)
Deb, what I’ve read is that there are “pediatric” cancer centers popping up all over as well.
Wouldn’t be surprised. Pregnant moms are now getting several vaccines, and newborns, less than 1 hour old getting the Heparin B vaccine. Anything to wreck their immune system early!
Hepatitis vaccine.
"Something is off with the mRNA shots?"
There isn't anything wrong with political management of medical science?
Moving Idaho up on my list of potential relocation states :)
I lived in Idaho for 7 years and during the convid sham. Idaho's government supported this sham 1000% and so did many of its population. I was refused service and kicked out of FedEx and upon entering a Natural Grocers full of terrified masked people I was given a large badge to wear that was a pathetic apology for not wearing a face diaper due to medical reasons... I still have that stupid pin. I did not put it on and I was so disgusted by all the cowards standing on the colored dots 6 feet apart, eyes narrowed in judgment - that was just the beginning and I knew humanity was going to bend over for this... and they did.
I'm assuming the Natural Grocers was in Boise, which is or headed blue. There's a food coop there too, and vibrant liberal community. I've heard that pronouns are spoken; no nouns or verbs, just pronouns.
Yes, the coop... during convid their policy was no children (if you can believe it). When I first moved there the energy was clean and vibrant... now, it's covered in shadow. The progs move in and run for the local govt seats and then it all turns to sh*t. I'm a little bitter ;)
That is the impression I have gotten from a distance.
It's like every other "red" state. The left/right progs move into the most densely populated cities and take over the local government. It is also a college town so that always lends itself to an easy capture of young college minds. It's a recipe that works every time.
😂
I got kicked out of a bookstore because the mask didn’t cover my nose. Yes I wore one when I had to most of the time. But NEVER at home in the car etc, outside, and I didn’t whenever I could get away with it. Looking back on that time, it’s like a bad bad dream
A really bad dream... feels like a dream because, even though the outcome has been injury and death from the jabs, everyone has strangely moved on and the next false flag has been raised, further dividing a public that has abandoned common sense once again in support of more madness.
I visited Boise in 2021 to escape the vax passport stuff … loved it there. Was so strange to see maskless people and to be allowed to enter a restaurant. The Covidian businesses stood out in their absurdly, such as a bookstore with lame signs about please wear a mask because kids under 5 couldn’t be jabbed yet lol. People were mellow and friendly, not terrified and deranged like where I live. Definitely will visit again!
There are definitely degrees of madness. It was very clear to me that the Police Chief (formerly the PC in Portland), the mayor, and all the decision makers were very much behind the agenda. The county representatives were cut out of all decision making as the governor created a select committee to neuter the whole political process and kept extending the "state of emergency" while he collected covid funds. So, just sayin', it wasn't as bad there as other places but it could easily go there as the culture continues to change. Ten years ago it was an awesome place to be...
I could see it’s in the works to be the next Austin.
Your alias makes me laugh... I don't know why ;)
I bet Boise was just like Salt Lake City, which is where I was. I was so disappointed in the healthy and natural demographic who went all in on restricted breathing and Pharma messiahs. But, I bet the real rural places that were not progressive paradises were doing a better job of keeping it real and old fashioned wholesome.
Okay, so from Boise I ended up in Ogden... and nearly got arrested at the Natural Grocers there (my friend did get arrested). Crazy times... My brother worked at the base and was forced to take the shots or lose his job. My idiot sister actually said he had a choice and didn't see anything wrong with this ultimatum (sigh). The denial then and now still sickens me. Utah based Good Earth grocers was great and never bothered its customers about masks, etc... the alternate health community really disappointed for sure. I do wonder if the smaller towns did better...
They did do better, both in Utah, and also in Minnesota, where I moved to in 2020. Rural is so much better.
The ultimatums, mandates, were not OK, but, I also think it highlights our integrity, our lack of. So many were mandated by their jobs and would use the language of "have to...". I think when you're clear about what you will and will not do, there is no room for coercion; there is only a NO. I had a government job for a stint which thankfully ended, but would have ended due to refusing any mandate anyways. I didn't anguish; I just know it will not happen. I guess I am fortunate in that I have never been wealthy, and know how to live resourcefully and on a very tight budget. I am not so intimidated by ending a bad work relationship.
Have you been there recently?
If the pediatricians really wanted to encourage vaccinations, they would stop lumping covid in with measles and polio. The fact that they do would lead one to believe that they really want to get that covid jab into those children. It might also lead one to wonder were polio and measles as deadly as covid? It's akin saying there is an epidemic of colds and seasonal allergies around the country and it is at the same level of concern as sepsis, what will we do? Do they not see it damages their credibility?
Curious if the Autism spectrum is also down 20%?
Would be too early to see that correlation, if it was indeed vax-related. You'd need to allow several years for the kids to grow, and then more time to allow them to get diagnosed (or not diagnosed, as the case may be).
Praise God! - the people/ parents of Idaho are waking up. Too bad hell on Earth Oregon can't wake up. That is why half the state if Oregon wants to join Idaho. All I can say is that we remain in this hell hole pointing to the way, the truth & the light.
Thank you Jeff for all you research to inform us.
While I appreciate seeing the news about the blue cities slowly seeing that something may, just possibly, might be ill-advised in a position taken by someone in the past ... they still haven't really seen the root cause for the issues and seem to be insistent that more money from the Federal government will solve the issue. Adams can see that they don't have enough money, but still hasn't felt the pain enough to say "it's time to secure the border". Maybe as more and more NYC dwellers see their high taxes just go into nothing, they'll wake up and start calling for change. Sadly, I think the more sane people from NYC (sane for NYC, anyway) have already fled the city to other areas. I know my family in CT has noticed quite a bit of real estate being sold to former NYC residents.
Peter Schott - I noticed that right away, also. Mayor Adams' solution was wanting more of our tax dollars for his city to cover the costs of his city's choice to welcome all the visitors via the sanctuary city status. Instead of suggesting the abandonment of sanctuary city status and securing the border he goes straight to demanding our tax money to cover the costs of things he/New York are directly responsible for implementing.
So why don't they just change their sanctuary laws? There must be enough appetite by citizens to do so?
Oregon Kathy - Someone in a later comment stated the sanctuary city law came about via an Executive Order by a former mayor (in the 80s?). If so, all Adams has to do to fix the problem is issue an Executive Order - not get our tax money to cover the consequences of decisions made in the past.
How would Adams make up all the "I am so virtuous points because I welcome all" if he rescinds the sanctuary city status. There are a lot of people that have been convinced that "welcome all" is this is the virtuous path. If he rescinded the order that would be a lot of votes and a lot of political clout in Dem circles that he would lose. I do agree with you that would be the way to proceed but then I am not a Dem.
Adams can see that they don't have enough money, but still hasn't felt the pain enough to say "it's time to secure the border".
----
He can't say that as he serves interests intent on balkanizing and weakening America.
I listen to Megyn Kelly’s podcasts and I know she and her family bailed out of NYC to Connecticut during Covid.
Ok just for the record I doubt highly that Oregonians overwhelmingly passed BM legalizing drugs. We are 40 yr Oregonian residents transplanted to Florida in 2020. Oregon has been an election cheat state for most of its 40-50 yr mail in ballot experiment. It is ground zero where they practiced how to cheat. IMO. While oregon is definitely full of liberal idiocy when California began invading back in the 80’s I highly doubt most of these stupid ass ballot measure really passed. Part of the cheating comes by way of verbiage in the voters guide to deliberately confuse people so they don’t know what their yes or no vote actually means. It’s not just on Election Day (month 🙄). If they did legit pass it was only Portland and Eugene that voted for it. And the ones that actually did vote for the stupidity -they deserve what they have gotten. Shame on them! The rest of the innocents that voted against all this are soldiers in a war and have been fighting the good fight for a long time. They are the heros!
I don't want to get into an arm wrestling match over which state has been cheating best, longest but I'm in Illinois.
Winner/Loser. 😣
🤣🤬🤣
Even your dead people cheat.
RJ - also in “ILL”inois - The “Chicago Way” of dead people voting has been alive & well since as long as I can remember (tongue in cheek there in the “alive” part.
Now da ballot system is verrrry profitable.
Hahahahah
😂 Touché 🫣😡 🤯
Sunnydaze, I just saw this:
But for columnist Dick Hughes, the news wasn't all great.
"Not getting enough media attention was what State Economist Mark McMullen and Senior Economist Josh Lehner said about Oregon’s population growth: It’s stalled. Deaths will continue to outnumber births for the foreseeable future. Any population growth must come from people moving here. But more folks are exiting Oregon."
And a stalled population puts a lid on economic growth.
Chickens coming home to roost.
Me too. 🤯😭🤬😤
Illinois really doesn't need to cheat, as so many ignorant or gov't-connected voters.
If they couldn't cheat with mail in and sign up day of and college students and paid voters and nursing home cheaters and internet down and computer and printer glitches... I think the statistics would be different.
I witnessed these things. I swea one woman voted twice in the exact same clothes , same glasses, same height in the same polling place and I thought sure she'd get caught but maybe I was wrong. 🙈
RJ—we “win” Hands Down! 😁
Articles (many) say 58% supported
That sounds better but still too high, I think. And that’s from living there, knowing the landscape, knowing a lot people in what used to be a conservative community. I say “used to” but really still is, but you wouldn’t know it because the ones who yell the loudest are the crazy liberals and they try to intimidate people into staying silent…which has worked. There really is still a silent majority.
I wish we could get an accurate representation of the numbers. 😔
Confusingly worded referendums is the way that terrible abortion amendment passed in Ohio. That and getting outspent by the opposition by 2:1. Sigh.
NAB - until pastors, priests, rabbis, clerics, etc & folks who claim Christian virtues & morals stand up, speak up & are truthful about what this baby harvesting parts industry is - the horrific facts of this abortion-on-demand up to & including the day of birth will continue no matter how much money is put into this culture of death for profit.
My brother was adopted, not aborted...thankfully.
Don’t get me started! 🤬
Another reason to get into office honest Secretary of States.
That's how the drug initiative passed in Oregon, too.
I’m lately hearing radio ads in favor of retaining legalization. Very convincing lies.
I have thought the same thing here in Michigan. Even the most pro choice 20, 30, and 40 something’s would not vote for abortion to birth, or taking away parental health rights for children 12-18.. The language is so murky it sounds logical. Everything will be fought out in courts. That is the plan.
I thought the same exact thing. Once they know they can cheat they will do it to any race and any measure. Who knows what the people REALLY wanted. Although I agree it wasn’t abortion right to birth and removing parental rights to children. What a crock. And we have family in Michigan and go visit often so we are familiar with that landscape too.
How can that 1988 mail in ballot law ever be reversed?
They, the supporters of legalization are running ads on the radio extolling how wonderful it is to legalize hard drugs because it helps get users the help they need and keeps them out of jail where they can’t get help. It’s a very convincing lie.
They must be feeling the push, the backlash of legalization.
I wish I hadn’t voted to legalize pot all those years ago. The fallout has been horrible. Colorado has been feeling it big time citing an increase in traffic accidents. Weren’t they the first?
“very convincing LIE” 🎯
You just nailed it!
Do not be deceived. GOD is not mocked. Whatever a man sows, so shall he reap. Believers and unbelievers alike.
I’m sure they are pouring tons of money in to market to the people how great it is. Especially young people. Don’t believe your lying eyes sort of thing. They will douse marketing outlet with the lies so anyone who doesn’t have a brain will vote their way simply because they heard of it 🤦🏼♀️ just like name recognition.
Yes, Colorado was first and the information I keep hearing there (from years ago now) is how awful it is.
I know people don’t want the govt with their grubby hands in the pot industry but I’m sorry-it all leads to destruction one way or another. Any mind altering, personality altering, cognitive altering substance leads to destruction. And yes, look what alcohol and pain pills do. And I sometimes have a drink and have taken pain pills after surgeries. I get it. This could spur on a whole huge backlash against not legalizing pot, but it all starts somewhere and in the hands of a broken world with broken people-dulling the emotional pain, and escaping reality isn’t the answer. Put the money aside. Is it really beneficial to have our young people high all the time? To have them checked out? Legalization just blurs the line of what’s right/wrong or acceptable/not acceptable. I could go on but I won’t. Too much destruction happening all in the name of “it’s an herb and God created herbs” 🙄 whatever.
They use God when it’s convenient.
They could always smoke nightshade or poison ivy. Those are plants created by God too 😑
Hahahaha. That made me laugh out loud 😂 😂
😁😁😁
Also they want people to be on drugs and to be high because then they can be easily controlled.
Mr. Childers, Would appreciate your perspective on the Florida Special Grand Jury called to investigate “any and all wrongdoing” with respect to the COVID-19 vaccines. I believe that Gov DeSantis called for this Grand Jury in December 2022, and the Florida Supreme Court approved it in January or February 2023.
We understand that the Grand Jury process is secret, but based on your professional understanding of the process, is there hope to hear something in the next few months? Also, is it unusual to not hear anything about what is being subpoenaed?
Great question!
Yes, please. I've been wondering the same.
God bless you and your law firm Jeff. Thank you.
The WSJ is as much of the MSM as the NYT. The news section is as worthless as the NYT. There is only reason to read the WSJ and that is the opinion pages because they still have independence. It will soon be gone given that the Murdoch boys are in control. The future lies in things like this substack or Bari Weiss’s The Free Press also found on Substack.
Only good for lining the bottom of a bird cage.
Paper towels are far more absorbent.
Annie - or kitty litter liner 🐈⬛
even the opinion page is, mainly, for shilling...
When was it ever meant for anything else?
Ahhh... today your Substack articles could be called, “Coffee and Covid and Crack(s)” ...
Ohhh... the fissures are being revealed here there and everywhere! Oh my! 😝🤔
Wasn't it Schroedinger that had a thing about cats and boxes? Heisenberg was the guy who said you couldn't know everything about particles. IIRC, one of those experiments showed particles shot at a board through a slit would behave randomly-ish if not observed, but if you observed them going through the slit they performed exactly the same each time. Something about being observed changed the behavior. Can't know position _and_ velocity at the same time.
You are correct about Schroedinger’s cats, but the double slit experiment shows that light is both a wave and a particle. You are also correct about Heisenberg principle stating you cannot know position and momentum at the same time. Jeff was correct in his point stating that the act of observing an particle changes the particle, which is what Heisenberg said.
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and the observation principle illustrated by Schroedinger's cat are related but two different things: "The uncertainty principle has been frequently confused with the observer effect, evidently even by its originator, Werner Heisenberg.[15] The uncertainty principle in its standard form describes how precisely we may measure the position and momentum of a particle at the same time"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_effect_(physics)#Thermodynamics
My mistake - it's been a couple of decades now. I thought that double-slit experiment also tied in briefly with Heisenberg when a camera was put on the particles so you could see what was going on and the output changed from random/spread to pretty much a straight line. I do remember that it's just crazy that seeing something that basic changes outcomes.
I'm sure there's some sort of tie-in to voting here as well, but that's eluding me at the moment.... ;)
Peter - if you can see the ballots - they don’t exist? 😎🤨😏
BOOM!
The double slit shows that light is either a wave or a particle, not both simultaneously.
Yes! That’s what I was thinking. He mixed up Schrödinger’s cat with the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.
Long ago we found a deformed deaf kitten which we adopted and named Schrodinger, "Dinger" for short, sort of "ding dong Heisenberg" There used to be a great T shirt "Heisenberg May Have Slept Here" I thought it was a good shot at an analogy, though it might be that "priming" more literally describes what is going on. In Cognitive Science, which is usually reductionist materialist, so one wants to throw out the overarching paradigm, they use religious and disease and mortality "primes" to test responses, and come up with findings about those. People watch less porn on Sunday, for instance, just because it is Sunday and they are "primed" to think of God and religion. If a judge gets a disgust/disease prime, according to these researchers, he, she or zhe, will deliver harsher sentences. The Angelus Bell in Ireland is a prime to think of God and transcendence and the divine.
I wish there were a way to prime people not not get trapped in the doctrines of their religious denomination and in the arguments over that, how many angels on the head of a pin, and band together in our shared awareness of human divinity. Or a prime played hourly in the halls of Congress that reminded them of what they were elected for and to whom they should be responsible. Or we could just waterboard them in a big vat of mrna--just kidding! lol.
“Or we could just waterboard them in a big vat of mrna--just kidding! lol.” <- I’m not kidding. That would be GREAT! So sweet that you adopted the kitten.
yup
Please tell us that you aren't employed in cosmology or metaphysics.
Mount Fagradalsfjall, or however you say it, which last blew its stack in 2015.

I want to personally thank Mount Fagradalsfjall, for releasing millions of tons of plant food,
aka CO2, into the atmosphere to help feed humanity.
Shhhhh. Don't point that out, or the EU will convert all Icelandic volcanoes to electric eruptions.
The international "community" will fine Iceland until they bring their volcanoes into compliance.
I am triggered. Lol 😅 😉
I'm in contact with a resident ICELANDER who claims media exaggeration however she DOES expect magma to "OOZE" from the ground as happened before.
It's shocking. 😉 Lol. Volcanoes have been doing this for centuries and longer.
I would strongly advise reading this about Aluminum in vaccines , and vaccine "placebos" before deciding to take any more.

This is pure evil and diabolical. Did Big Pharma clone Dr. Mengele to come up with these toxic products? It's a great two-fer for them--we give them piles of money while volunteering to reduce our population. The Nazis would have been so proud.
The Nazis ARE proud.
The common comeback to "aluminum in vaccines" is that "there's more aluminum in a pear that you eat and you eat those..."
This is the kind of mindset that most people have. That and "they didn't hurt me, what are you whinging about"
I don't mainline pears into my circulatory system, for good reason.
Lol, and that's what you can't get through to them.. that there's a big difference between "ingesting" something, which then goes through the alimentary canal where it can be filtered out like it's supposed to, and "injection" where it bypasses the entire protective system we have to filter out that kind of thing.
Unfortunately, brick walls tend to listen better...

This is absolutely sickening and so disturbing. How can anyone in the FBI live with themselves for the miscarriage of justice they’re part of??
Same way every sinner loves his selfish self. No truth in him.
Don't look here LOOK! OVER THERE!
Even a small child stops looking after a few times but American Voters... Not so smart. Could public schooling be the reason?
Did i just use public education and reason in the same sentence?
This was just broken by Luke Rosiac DW. Absolutely disgusting
Absolutely disgusting!!! Yet another reason that the FBI and the other alphabet agencies need to be completely dismantled!!! Our tax dollars at work!!!!!
“When you use politics to guide your law enforcement priorities, it necessarily means that public safety takes a back seat”
The FBI has used J6 as a political mission statement . The whole agency needs to go.
That's because too many have elevated MAGA extremist to such villainous status and at the same time have accepted a softened stance towards "alternative sexualities" that we justify such a redirection of resources. My goodness.
Every single one of those FBI agents will be held accountable for every children that is hurt because of their neglect. God knows exactly what is in their selfish heart and they will pay accordingly.
😮😮😮😡WTH. 😭😭😭
Jeff, I’m so thankful for you! I am so glad you’re in the fight. I’m so thankful for the work that you’re doing regarding the PREP act!! This is INCREDIBLE!! I can’t understand why it took so long for an attorney to do this but I digress. We will pray that there is a reversal. Along those lines, you might want to consider a security detail. I mean this is all out war against BIG PHARMA!! I’m shocked, really. Reckoning is coming. I’m sure it cannot come fast enough for every parent whose child died or was injured from fake vaccines. It’s truly one of the biggest crimes in our country. It’s like a vaccine wild, Wild West. Sacrificing our children for profit. It’s so sad. May the PREP act die and go to hell.
