URGENT:

I don't normally like to jump Jeff's C&C with other info because C&C is PRECIOUS and PRICELESS education and information for we who are seeking the truth in a world of lies and disinformation propagated by them!

Who is "them"? Read on.

But today? Today I tell you to read Jeff's C&C and then stop for 5-10 minutes and read Elizabeth NIckson's "Absurdistan". Europe, Australia, Japan, etc is awake and it is to a great extent - perhaps entirely - because of what President Trump has and is doing in the USA and around the world.

Absurdistand is absolutely MUST READ today: https://elizabethnickson.substack.com/p/trumps-economic-triumphs-will-end

"Trump's Economic Triumphs Will End the Murderous Mercantilist British Empire"

The People, around the world have had enough of the New World Order inbred, corrupt thieves, who have sacked the world for hundreds of years, and the USA since the early 1900's.

We can thank our GREAT President. If you didn't already understand, now you will understand why they want him dead and why we should protect him with our own lives.

Elizabeth Nickson is Canadian from a very prestigious well connected Canadian family. They go way back to England and pre confederation Canada. Her mother was MK Ultrad and she wrote a book about it. She is very good writer with reams of facts about the very depressing situation Canada faces AND the west. I was a little glad when she took a break because UNLIKE OUR HERO JEFF CHILDERS she almost never says anything uplifting. Only recently have her posts become positive about Trump saving the world. Plus she has no apparent sense of humor. Maybe because that extra U. Jeff is American through and through and always leaves us laughing and even during the darkest days of the scamdemic and the ugliest most UN qualified cabinet in history under the auto pen years he kept us sane and looking forward to the return of sanity. He is NEVER WRONG!

I lived in Toronto for 23 years. During that time I won a Peabody award for a dark comedy written by an also well connected Canadian Hugh Graham. Through him I once visited Morley Callaghan who served us whiskey in dirty glasses while his wife who had Bell’s palsy sat in the corner of the living room of their grand house in Rosedale. I declined the drink. You don’t have to be well connected or MK Ultraed to lose all sense of humor living there

It is true. A friend had an exchange student in her home. She is a very tactful person and they had a conversation where she asked him about how Germans felt about it. He told her that the Holocaust was a lie. She asked him more about it and he said that is what their history books tell them.

He said that it was just ‘propaganda’ by the ‘Jews’. She is a student of history and prophecy. She said he hated the Jews. He even attended church with her and her family.

This is one of the key beacons confirming that we'll likely be OK after this 4th turning. The people, particularly the young adults, have seen Oz behind the curtain. And they're pissed and not taking it anymore.

For those unfamiliar with Ms. Nickson, she grew up in the blue blood rich social circles. She knows how they think, how they mold their offspring, and just how evil they are. She's the former editor of a key publication in the UK. And now she does deep dive, investigative journalism to expose the rot, the con, and how to defeat it.

And she's a great writer. Cannot be recommended too much.

Matthew 7:7-8 NIV

Jesus answered, “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

John 14:6 NIV

Now let us put them together.

Ask, and the Way will be given to you. Seek and you will find the Truth. Knock, and the door to everlasting Life will be opened to you. So, what are you waiting for...take that first step and Ask.

Folks aren't allowed to desert one military and join another.

It's been illegal since day one. I've already been to Ukraine before-we did training with them and the things we taught them were used successfully to kill Russian tanks.

One of the problems with NATO is that it's based on the "an attack on one is an attack on all." Other than enriching arms manufacturers, I can't find a logical reason for it anymore, especially when Trump brings Russia into the West. And then it will have no basis for existing.

Pardon a bit of self-own, it’s troubled me all my life. I might hit send; only the thumbs know. When the ol’man (ret-E8 291/2) returned from Vietnam I was 17, he was 58. He a survivor of 7DEC41 Jap bombing-Hickam Field, Pacific WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Cold War EU nukes, and I a long-haired So Calif. A student w/ a Congressman interview upcoming for a slot @ USAF Academy. I learned many years later that he cancelled that interview. The only thing I knew was that it got cancelled, but he got in my face and told me that I would go to college and avoid the draft by “any legal means. Or we’ll fight in the street.” In response to my curiosity of his change he said, “we don’t want to win anymore and we don’t ever get in fights we don’t want to win.” That along with every form of marshall art had been drilled into me since before I can even remember.

I am all for straightforward, honest language. But what is wrong with Department of Defense? I get the gist here, that we have been starting wars for at least 60 - 70 years (and for the most part, failing at it). But why are we starting these wars anyway? Shouldn’t we be aggressively focused on defense?

I get it that we have to be prepared to fight IF WE ARE ATTACKED, but sounds like Jeff is saying, we have to be honest and realistic and move to an offensive posture. (Maybe rename to Department of Offense?).

Maybe I’m missing something.

Was listening to the great John Mearscheimer last night as he broke down the idiotic position of our current foreign policy. We are pushing Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea into a necessary coalition for their own survival. (ICYMI - check out China’s’s military parade a couple days ago, and ask yourself how we size up against that).

“Our side” is aligned with a crumbling European NATO, and a highly belligerent Israel that starts wars and requires the US to finish them.

You aren't missing anything.

People forget that Congress is supposed to declare war, not the President. Last time Congress declared war was in 1942.

"The Constitution grants Congress the sole power to declare war. Congress has declared war on 11 occasions, including its first declaration of war with Great Britain in 1812. Congress approved its last formal declaration of war during World War II. Since that time it has agreed to resolutions authorizing the use of military force and continues to shape U.S. military policy through appropriations and oversight."

That may be so, but it is the President who is the Commander-in-Chief and responsible for providing a trained, equipped and ready force to close with and kill our enemies. If we waited on Congress every time something was necessary, we'd be speaking a different language. Of course you want to have Congressional "buy in" to conducting operations, but in today's hyper partisan bullshit congress, do whatever you can to make the other side look bad instead of doing what's right for the country, you need a ready force and a President who can look the other side down, because of the ready force who can operate offensively, and if necessary deploy. And only deploy if you intend to let the Department of War do the necessary "kicking ass and taking names" to win decisively and set the conditions for unconditional surrender, otherwise, do not deploy them.

re: "This is a misuse of our military." You clearly don't know the uses of the US Military, so you should hush about it as you expose your ignorance.

re: Why not wait? How long? Until they bring another 250 kilos of fentanyl into the country? 500 Kilos, 10,000 kilos? How many times should we warn them to stop trafficking drugs into our country? 10, 100, 1000 times, just warn and warn. How many more dead and hopelessly addicted Americans?

Biden and his crew didn't give a fuck, in fact they let criminals in by the millions.

It was not a suspicion, they knew who and what it was and they saved a lot of Americans. And they destroyed a drug fast boat, a gang of terrorists and a dump load of drugs. What the fuck do you think they were doing speeding at 50 knots in international water? Instead of questioning it, you should say job damn well done.

Frankly, I say go in and regime change that drug cartel bastard and all his henchman. But that's me, you'd rather they show up at our door step, illegally enter the country and do their dirty evil work. Contemplating means exactly that contemplating, it doesn't mean an operation is about to kick off. Do you think it was a hard stop warning for the fuck up maduro?

This is what I voted for, a safe, secure, and prosperous USA. And President Trump is delivering, in spite of fools like yourself Marilynne.

First, don't tell me to "hush". Respect free speech.

Second, get your Mom to find the bar of Ivory soap and clean your mouth.

Third, you are the one who is ignorant about the role of the military and our constitutional principles.

The military is not there to fight the "War on Drugs". We have other civic federal agencies assigned that task. And the Coast Guard does patrol our waters and has been intercepting drug boats for decades. They board the vessel, find the drugs and arrest the suspects. Then there are charges filed and a trial is conducted with a verdict. That is how America handles crimes.

Being this was a vessel, it was the Coast Guards job to make sure those drugs did not reach our shores.

If it is ok to you that the US military can just blow things/people up and get proof later than that philosophy should apply to other nations too, correct?

So there is a bad guy living next to you. Russia says they are criminals, can Russia fly a drone over there and take him out? Inadvertently, killing you and your 3 kiddies, but we are to cheer that Russia got the bad guy, right? I say no, as that would not be ok for me. But we are doing those things with drones in Yemen, etc and it is not the American way.

Be careless all you want with your constitutional rights. But when you give them an inch (by normalizing and agreeing with this), they will take a mile. This won't end well.

I actually find it pretty simple and straight forward.

Department of War means we will have a federal cabinet level organization of warriors ready, trained, and equipped to wage war in any theater(s) of operation and decisively win, be it an offensive or defensive requirement. And we wont send it, willy nilly to do the globalists bidding or resupply them with our arms and money as we have done for decades.

Otherwise why have one?

If you wait to be attacked, you are not ready, sometimes you have to start and stay on offense, which justifies forward bases (but not nearly the number we have now). Which means you also have a robust industrial base - which was stolen from us by the globalists - to provide the means for offensive or defensive warfare.

You are wrong, WE HAVE HAD, under cabbage, ovomit, bush, clinton idiotic people, part of the NWO, running our foreign policy to run our country into the ground. We do not under President Trump.

Marxists, aka Progressives I knew and heard about in the 1980's and 1990's were always talking about this weird Marxist professor, Noam Chomsky, who they would go see give speeches, shared widely in media of the age, quoting song and verse from his books verbatim as though they had found divine wisdom that would transform the world into their utopia.

Noam Chomsky became an inescapable name from any conversation that drifted into politics with any leftist. He had a massive cult-like following on college campuses and in the political chattering classes, inspired millions and millions of students of the era to take his "wisdom" and apply it in their lives, proselytizing all who would listen.

Not being a Marxist-leftist I only knew of him, and knew the rantings of his disciples to be cotton candy ideas and concepts that would dissolve upon contact with reality. Like Marxism does. It was easy to dismiss him.

What I didn't know until a couple decades later was that he was a professor of Linguistics. Not political science as I had assumed.

His influence on the little Marxists in training was massive. I can't overstate that enough. Only the rise of the internet and the success of others on the political left whose voices were able to reach more minds than his technology-limited era makes him seem like less of a significant influence than he was/is. Those who came after him and gained wide audiences are part of his debased legacy.

Linguistics, as Jeff explains, is what most of their power is built on. Deceptive language. That, like cotton candy, is an illusion that only remains desirable when protected from the real world. Marxism needs propaganda and censorship to acquire and maintain power. Which inevitably leads to totalitarian control of language, the criminalization of real world speech. (See the UK, Germany, Europe, D-controlled states today, Biden's US for evidence)

Words have power. Chomsky knew this. Orwell knew this. Lawyers, politicians and courts know this. Alexander Solzhenitsyn knew this when he wrote 'Live Not By Lies' and counseled to never let a lie leave your own tongue at the demand of others. Words are the spellbinding power of linguistic sorcerers. Merlins and Rasputins in the employ of weak kings and rulers who need illusion to acquire and retain power.

Linguistic spells are broken by truth. Making truthtellers the most powerful opponents of the sorcerers. Note: God's word is truth, he alone needs no lies. That is Satan's need. And there is no lie in nature.

It's not accidental that Marxists hate true faith, have no use for God, and either ban religions or control them. As they try to control nature (including the microbiological world.) Their control is an illusion, truth cannot be denied or controlled. And they will fail in the end. They always do. But those who try to control and destroy truth can do a lot of damage before they lose power.

Care for a deeper dive given your background with Latin? Does "Lingua Tertii Imperii" sound familiar?

Victor Klemperer has received scant attention. But his story is perhaps even more important to learn from in these times than other more widely referenced books about life in Nazi Germany. He wrote the books, I Will Bear Witness (Vols 1 and 2) and The Lesser Evil. Note: Victor Klemperer's cousin was Werner Klemperer, who co-starred in Judgement at Nuremberg. Most know Werner as Col. Klink from Hogan's Heroes.

Christopher Hitchens wrote a review of Victor's work in The Atlantic in December, 2004.

Survivor by Christopher Hitchens

The Atlantic, December, 2004 https://web.archive.org/web/20120823234807/https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2004/12/survivor/303614/

Klemperer chronicled his life journey as the Third Reich ascended in his daily diary. His voice reveals his sense of entitlement, how he didn't think the horrors being visited on others would visit on him. And when they did he became embittered that he, a man of his position, had been lumped in with the others who may have deserved their fate. He had converted from Judaism to Protestantism, yet was forced to endure the humiliations of Jews he didn't even like.

Not even aware of his own responsibility for his plight that allowed him to become a victim. Because he did nothing, he even mildly supported the treatment of those who opposed the Nazi regime.

Much like those who mildly supported the treatment of those who opposed mask and jab mandates. And censorship. And the arrest and indefinite detainment of J6 political prisoners. And the indictments of Pres. Trump. "THEY deserve(d) it!!"

Klemperer was a professor of linguistics before the rise of the Third Reich. One of his books, The Language of the Third Reich (LTI) explains exactly how Nazi's in Germany used clever linguistics to hijack a constitutional republic and turn it into a massive criminal enterprise under Hitler.

Lingua Tertii Imperii

https://www.academia.edu/42705102/Viktor_Klemperer_and_LTI_Language_of_the_Third_Reich_

Another interesting piece on Victor Klemperer and his works in this June, 2000 Commentary piece discusses LTI

I Will Bear Witness:

https://www.commentary.org/articles/daniel-johnson/what-victor-klemperer-saw/

Klemperer's writings are first-hand accounts of the banality of evil. How oblivious those who've experienced its injustices and deprivations are to it. The rationalizations and justifications for evil that a human mind is capable of going through.

He's a sort of anti-hero. Not a sympathetic victim. But a victim nonetheless. Which makes his story compelling and must-reads. And they serve as a mirror of reflection that I dare say most of society would also see if we were forced to atone for our conduct and complicity with evil that we've been responsible for in our lives to get us to today. Some moreso than others, namely the Karen scolds and those who enforce unjust laws and rules.

It's hard to link Tylenol to autism since babies are given Tylenol just before they are given their shots. A study could be conducted tomorrow to determine the outcomes in vaccination with no Tylenol, vaccination with Tylenol, and no vaccination. Well over 3 million babies are born each year in the US and doing this with 1k babies in each category in 50 states would be simple. You're only looking at 50k unvaccinated of all babies. The stakes are too high for those that make money off of this. If it shows that's most or all vaccines are unnecessary, the fallout would be huge. The boomers (and I'm one) will not put their retirement on the line. We created many of the laws that this nightmare is made of. If we were to be honest about the chemicals and other developmental poisons we put into children's bodies via food, skin, medicine, technology, the stock market would crash. The children of the future would be better off but I can assure you, there is no stomach for doing the right thing.

This is exactly right. In fact the treatment for a Tylenol overdose is immediate administration of N-Acetyl Cysteine, the rate-limiting ingredient needed in the body's synthesis of glutathione.

Glutathione is key component of the body's detoxification pathways. Now consider a toddler given multiple vaccines in a single doctor's office visit. The child has an adverse reaction, is obviously in terrible pain, and crying uncontrollably. The desperate parent calls the pediatrician and is told to give the baby Tylenol!! It's the absolute worst thing to do, and is nearly criminal in it's recklessness.

Hopefully RFK Jr lets the bigger story be told, as it's much more than simply a pregnant woman taking a few Tylenol now and then.

The truth is every baby born in America is a guinea pig, and that is not an exaggeration. Explain to me how they actually do any longitudinal testing on vaccines or any of these injections when they are given within four hours of birth.

Which parents out there signed up their newborns to be part of a trial?

Where is the control group?

Good point! … A voluntary control group, but a controlled group nonetheless. Also, the Amish and Mennonites, the Hasidic Jews, and the rural Mormons— three Natural US populations that do not jab their kids. Virtually no autism, no autoimmune disease, and no Alzheimer’s.

Same with C19 jab. Those who said no are much healthier and had far lower incidences of Covid.

I couldn't agree more and sadly, the experimentation continues through public schooling. As soon a they walk through the door, they are ushered in for a free ultra processed breakfast, filled by terrible curriculum, followed with data mining through i-ready and other shitty tech programs, onto the recommendation of amphetamines for the mostly males that don't sit and listen for 3 or 4 hours before going outside, followed by now processed foods, candy given by fellow teachers for bribery, dunkin donuts brought in daily by parents given to the whole classroom, and the list goes on. This has all been normalized for young parents and there is no better cheerleader for corporate bullshit than your local school district. I'd suggest all of the retired folks out there go and volunteer in the cafeteria and the classroom for 3 weeks to see that I am not exaggerating in the least.

It breaks my heart and I’m sickened over what I did to my kids 😢 They’re adults now but I had them fully vaxxed, supplemented with disgusting garbage formula. Fed them cereal and pop tarts for breakfast, Lunchables, oh they loved Doritos, sprayed sunblock all over their tiny bodies, sent them to public schools where they were forced to sit for hours with little fresh air. One boy was diagnosed with a learning disability, maybe it was ADHD they don’t know. Why wouldn’t he just sit still, pay attn, and listen? they wondered. THANK GOD they played tons of sports. But now that they’re all out of the house and I’m an empty nester I have time to look back and beat myself up over what I didn’t know and what their future will hold because of

It. I pray they open their own eyes and go down a better path with their children. I’m just so sorry and envious of those who did it right.

I’ve had those same thoughts.

Appalled at what I fed them growing up. How was I so ignorant of the crap we were eating and things we did?!

So discouraged that I vaxxed up my kids without once even questioning it. Not even one time. How could I NOT question injecting them over and over as kids?!

I finally got it right and woke up, and my kids now adults did not get the fake coofid vax. I implored and woke my son up from the mention of a vax on 2020, and he refused it. My other adult daughter has special needs and all of the special needs community was jabbing their adult kids up and I said HELL NO! And we walked the lonely road of a family that woke up and stood against all of that crap. Better late than never. We eat different. We live different. We make decisions different since 2020.

Me too. My twins were 3 months premature in 1993 and were given hepB shots within 12 hours of birth and s shot one and two months later. The dosage is the same whether they were 2 pounds or 10 pounds. I never realized it until I recently looked at their birth notes. Perhaps the motor tremor in their hands is a result of this, who knows. They had a lot of other issues so it could have been any of the medical problems that arise from ventilation, steroids, Lasix, theophylline, etc. Other than lung damage, they are successful 32 year olds. Without medical intervention, my second twin would have most certainly died.

Gonna put this here since it's on the topic... a small quibble from Jeff's post. Tylenol actually shouldn't be especially "profitable", since acetaminophen/paracetemol is out of patent and therefore free for generic manufacture by anybody.

Perhaps a reason why they're more willing to throw it under the bus? "Take the safe generics off the market so we can profit more from out new, patented cures"? (And by "safe" I mean in general terms -- if the studies are true, then not so safe for pregnant women or babies, but long usage suggests it's pretty safe for adults and older children.)

That is an important point. It would be a parent decision. They can choose any category. The study would close out at 1,000 random (just a number I'm throwing out there) in each category. No personal information needs to be disclosed. They don't have to participate at all. I'm not in a field that conducts studies. My point was that if they want robust studies, they could easily be done.

Renaming something to sound more acceptable is euphemism. It's also a main tool of Orwellian schemers. Kudos to Trump for daring to return to older, more accurate naming conventions. I'm sure there's a long list of other candidates. Here's one suggestion: Let’s call our prisons prisons instead of “correctional institutions.” Memo: one doesn’t need a degree in criminology to know no one is “corrected” in correctional institutions. Call it a prison. Problem solved.

While it’s not quite worthy of Shakespeare, a somewhat edgy yet very apropos meme said (edited slightly for this being a family forum): “Call a thing by its name. Just because you stick a flower into a [rectum] it doesn’t become a vase.”

Something about that needs unraveling. When Trump was an informant for Giuliani as they prosecuted the mafia, the associated DoJ figures were Comey, Rosenstein, Mueller, Barr, and Terwilliger.

At the time that article was written, all of them were involved one way or another in the Russia hoax. At the time, it appears the author thought they were white hats, but now it’s abundantly clear they were black hats.

Were they always black hats? Was PDT wrong to think they were actually using him to help stop crime? Or did something happen to corrupt them?

Whichever it was, I can understand why he gave them trust they didn’t deserve, if he thought they were actually trying to do the right thing 20-30 years ago.

My kids' pediatrician once told me never to give aspirin (or anything else) to reduce fever. His advice was to offer only hydration.

I have found that to be true since I haven't kept aspirin (or Tylenol) in the house for decades now.

So jealous. Last fall I finally made a determined effort for my husband and I to learn to use guns. I went so far as to get us both our FOID cards. Then started calling around to find the best training in our area. I was looking for a place that also had a gun club because I’ve learned in life that they always offer the best support and advice. But then financial things hit and kept hitting, and we aren’t of a status that can absorb hits AND advance in life. Lol. So we never got training!! And never bought a gun.

The cost of a couple classes is doable, but I want to be able to purchase one or two guns afterwards, as well as the safes to keep them in, and ammo, and good lord the cost of all of that really adds up to what a used car is and competes with some medical expenses and home improvements. But I wanted to make this more important than all of that and am looking for a window of reprieve when we can finally get trained and become confident and capable owners.

For that matter, start with an uber-inexpensive BB gun[1] to learn the basics of safety and shooting. You can practice with that in your back yard with targets affixed to a cardboard box WHICH you do NOT set up on your neighbor's fence...

[1] Could be a 177-cal/0.177 in "pellet" gun, but I haven't seen any that are other-than-single-shot, and reloading after each shot gets to be so tedious that you're liable to give the whole thing up. Most BB guns hold 50 or more BBs and reload with a quick action allowing you to keep your focus.

Your legal background and summation skills were truly "at the fore" in this statement you made today, J. C.

"Optics matter. What we call things and what they look like isn’t just cosmetic— it’s strategic. Other countries don’t just measure our troop deployments, they also watch the words we use and the way our capital city presents itself. A nation that names its military “Defense” while maintaining 750 bases abroad looks sneaky and untrustworthy; a capital with parks that look like third-world dirt lots looks weak and structurally broken.

Trump’s point is that perception shapes power: restore the grass, restore the name, and you restore credibility. Allies see resolve, adversaries see strength, and the American people see a plain-talking government that’s finally willing to stop hiding behind ever-denser lexicons of euphemism."

I have mentioned to several friends and neighbors over the past 20 years how I see the "creeping decay" of our country throughout the world - the 'deep state' shenanigans abroad and the 'infrastructure disarray' within our borders. Soooo...what you have stated in today's C & C blog just reaffirms my observations over the past several decades--and for that, I thank you - because when I would broach these matters to friends and family--most of them just shook their heads and looked at me askance.
