So many topics to comment on, but I'll comment on the DeSantis/Trump one. I'm also in Florida and loved DeSantis for keeping us open. (I wrote this piece on him back in May 2020 on Medium, before I got kicked off of that platform: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/ron-desantis-the-hero-we-didnt-know)
However, I'm not a fan of his running for the presidency. I fear that the presidency is controlled by the oligarchs that they would either stop him at all costs, or take him out if he really started to make true changes (https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/who-are-the-bad-guys). Same reason I'm not a fan of Kennedy as well. Means well, but realistically, can you change an oligrachical system?
I've always said Trump was a candidate who's controlled by the Deep State, but tells us about the Deep State (if that makes sense). I forsee a Trump/Biden election all over again because all these indictments against Trump is only increasing his popularity, hiding out true politicians who can really make change (Think Ron Paul 2008.)
Interesting times to come! Agree that this will be one of the most electrifying elections in our times!
PS: Harvard just released a study on adrenochrome which shows that if you give old mice blood from young mice, the old mice live longer. The Free Press ran a sarcasm piece on it, but I don't think that's something to joke about.: https://www.thefp.com/p/nellie-bowles-tgif-everyones-a-fraud/comment/21848398
Oh geez. My kooky neighbor has been on this adrenochrome thing for years, and I have, in last two years, come to realize that she is NOT kooky, but way ahead of the curve, because most of the frightening things she passes on to me become accepted as real/true.
There are some of us who have been “awake” for a long time, trying to tell people. I personally wish I had woken up before I vaxxed my children with the childhood vaxxes. But sadly, I was more like 2014, after they had them. “Trance formation of America” book … which was actually written in 1995 … was a big part of my wake-up call. I realized then that almost all politicians are compromised by sex, money or both.
Same here. I apologized to my kids saying if I had done my due diligence and not blindly trusted, they wouldn't have gotten most or any vaccines.
I apologized recently to my daughter, too, about her health issues early on. And congratulated her on not vaccinating her children. Of course, back then we had nothing to clue us in to the danger.
I as well, regarding children and vaxxes--youngest was born in '86, so fortunately missed much of the poisons (but was doctor-conned into taking HPV).
I have, personally, wondered whether the young global leader weffies (given that when you are young, you are not wise) are feted at cocktail parties, perhaps with interesting concoctions, propositioned by beautiful members of opposite? same? sex, with offers of same, go to hotel room thoughtfully provided with hidden recording equipment.....and then, from then on.......verbum sapienti satis est.
I would totally find that plausible.
I've been thinking about this phenomenon recently, of kooky-sounding stuff that may be or is true, particularly in regards to the resolutions being passed in Florida county Republican Executive Committees calling the injections 'biological weapons' and calling for their seizure and destruction. Right now, I'm not persuaded that this is the best tactic, as it sounds too kooky, so I don't think it's persuasive to enough average people, though I think that given how they were developed, not tested, and then fielded without informed consent, they shouldn't be put into any more humans. I just think that the argument needn't be on the basis of 'biological weapon,' but rather no science, no ethics, and no informed consent. What do you think?
I agree--using term 'bio weapons' would just allow an easy go-around. No science (well, how do you define 'science'?), no ethics (same), no informed consent--that leaves less wiggle-room, I think
On the ethics question, we could use the standards of the mandatory course in the ethics of humans subjects research which all of us who lead such studies have to take, all thrown in the wastebasket for the injections. For science, there's a millennia-long history of how it's defined and conducted, and it would be trivially easy to point out how the methods used for the injections didn't satisfy modern standards; many have already done so.
I would love to see desantis lead the red state governors to tackle the blob called the feds. Right now I see this area as his biggest contribution and positive impact. The swamp needs to be completely drained and maybe returned to nature. On a state level, he is showing all how to get it done.
What has he said and done about the Capitol Police setting up an office in the Tampa area? What has he said and done about the many Floridians who have been prosecuted and held without bail for J6 so-called crimes? What has he said and done about the persecution, not just prosecution, of Trump? Not nearly enough. Is that only because it would advantage his opponent? I've supported the Governor enthusiastically, but I've also seen that some of his major funders are not on my side, and I've started to notice the dogs that aren't barking (apologies to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle).
I noticed that too. The states need to block together to address the monstrous federal government
President Trump hasn't said or done much about those things either, though. He could have pardoned himself and all J6 defendants on his way out the door in January 2021. But he didn't.
Governors have no power to stop Federal prosecutions, even obviously bogus ones. Legal authority and jurisdiction still matter. We can't expect Gov. DeSantis to do things that he doesn't have the power to do.
We can expect him to pledge that he WILL do them when (God willing) he gets that power. I think he's done that, but maybe we can quibble that he should be more emphatic about it.
President Trump may be (slightly, at least, given his personality) constrained by his legal counsel on what he can say or do. Pardoning himself and all J6ers (some of whom were likely Dem plants leading the violence) would have been seen by many as a bridge too far, at least at that time. Gov. DeSantis is being flanked on his right by Vivek Ramaswamy, though, who is saying a lot of what needs to be said, in an unapologetic way. Gov. DeSantis speaks that way on 'woke' topics and somewhat on COVID, though he refused to veto the bill allowing hospitals to keep mandating remdesivir and the other dangerous parts of their protocol and allowed them to keep getting the bonus money for coding everything as COVID, so he's not really 'clean' on that topic, either. Some people are pointing out the difference between what he says and what he does, and sometimes they're right. He's all-in on woke; what else is he all-in on?
I never pictured the hand basket going to hell being so full of grotesque things. or ...more that they were an imagination thing, now we can visualize them. 😠🤮
Almost, if not actually, to a man (and woman), the trainers in my basic political activism training course offered by the Foundation for Applied Conservative Leadership were former Ron Paul supporters who concluded that supporting a candidate who will never win isn't a winning strategy. Their bottom line is that politicians must fear you or they will never bend to the will of citizens, but rather only to money, power, influence. They teach how to gain enough power to be influential.
I'm not seeing that paper; do you have a direct link? The link you provide just says I need to be a subscriber to comment on FP. However, I did find this from 2020, which is creepy enough:
"Parabiosis, blood exchange and plasma transfer experiments have highlighted the rejuvenating properties of young blood. Our Communications Biology study demonstrated that young bone marrow transplantation attenuates cognitive decline in old mice, with preservation of hippocampal synapses and reduced microglial reactivity. We now discuss subsequent studies that shed additional light on how blood impacts cognitive function, and potential clinical applications, including ongoing clinical trials with young plasma and experimental strategies targeting the hematopoietic system to slow or reverse cognitive decline."

If they are doing this, it isn’t working! See all the dusty incompetent fossils in the government.
Exactly. I was just thinking the same thing!
Right???
