It turns out Artificial Intelligence is parched, which raises important questions about humans versus machines; and a quick mini-roundup of fast takes on breaking news. Final vacation edition.
For those who asked for me to update on first grandbaby arrival: She flipped to breech at last minute last night, so my daughter had to have an emergency c-section. Baby is level 2 NICU. Daughter is ok, but it was a grueling 24+ hours. Prayers are appreciated. I will probably be staying near for as long as possible. Thank you.
šš Praise God for both their lives, and may He quickly intervene and surround the baby with vibrant health and strength while bringing peace to the heart of your daughter. I had three C-sections myself, my last ended up in the NICU and I remember the intensity of those first three days. God hear our prayers.
It's so difficult and challenging. Our son was a planned C because he was breach (and big) and our daughter was an emergency C (cord around her neck) just 17 months earlier. Delivery seemed fine but he had a stroke the next day. Thanks be to God our pediatrician was doing her first check of our son when he had a full seizure. Off to the NICU he went.....for 2 1/2 weeks. He's a healthy, kind, hard working college grad in a management position at Amazon. God is good....all the time.
Congratulations! What a joyful time despite that emergency c-section... We rejoice even as we pray for His healing to overwhelm every circumstance of her arrival and your daughter's care. We serve a God who is surprised by nothing! There is His presence even in this birth! May this precious baby girl never know a day without Jesus! Blessings Janice, to your a yours! Enjoy this and every moment! We celebrate with you!
Another brilliant flame sent into the world adding goodness and light. Angels will surround and protect her while God looks upon her with joy at the new life added to our world and to a loving family.
Yep. Hillary posted classified information on a personal server, deleted emails under subpoena and framed her political opponent with a blatant lie. The FBI caught herā¦..and immediately opened an intense investigation on ā¦ā¦Trump!
One of the first things Bill Clinton did when he was in office was to request the FBI files of everyone in Congress (and more if I recall). People played nice after that. I'm sure Hillary had access to that info.
It took a few prompts from ChatGPT to cough up references, because it kept trying to avoid mention of members of congress included in the records request. It's called "Filegate".
Here's what I finally go from chatgpt, and it included sources (don't know if the links come through)
Key Media Coverage on Congressional FBI Files
1. The New Yorker ā āDid the Feds Break the Law?ā (July 1996)
This investigative article explored the legal fallout of the FBI providing sensitive background files to the Clinton White House without individual consent. It highlighted that many recordsāincluding those of congressional interns and staffāwere included in the improper disclosure, and raised legal concerns under the Privacy Act of 1974
2. The Washington Post and The New York Times (JuneāSeptember 1996)
Press accounts and congressional hearing summaries made clear that the White House had obtained as many as 400ā900 FBI files, and some of those files pertained to congressional figures or their staff. Committee reports and media articles noted that Republican lawmakers discovered these files while probing both Travelgate and Filegate
3. Vanity Fair ā āWhite House Aides: They Who Serve and Sufferā (December 1996)
This piece reviewed the personal and legal consequences for aides involved in Filegate. While focusing mostly on staffers, it mentioned broader congressional involvement when discussing how investigations uncovered files on Capitol Hill personnel as part of the broader scandal
4. The New Yorker ā āLouis Freehās Last Caseā (2001)
In covering FBI Director Louis Freehās criticism of the White House, the article referenced the controversy that arose when the FBI turned over hundreds of dossiersāincluding those on congressional staffāas part of the Clinton administrationās efforts to update its personnel files
You'll be interested to know that all of the popular AI platforms are biased towards liberal causes. Here's a report regarding Claude being instructed to NOT assist in research regarding 2020 election fraud claims.
Yes. Look for "Filegate" references. I'd look on other search engines besides Google. They don't seem to be too trustworthy with news/info that exposes liberal figures.
Thanks, I used DDG. Do you know how āfilegateā relates to the files that were inexplicably āfoundā in the presidential living quarters - I think during Clintonās 2nd term?
Does anyone know why HRC would do something as stupid as posting classified information on a personal server, and send emails that she must have known were problematic? I donāt think Iāve ever seen an explanation for this downright dumb behavior.
Call me crazy but I wonder outside the box of reality although I'd prefer to stay in it.
When i think of HRC, I keep replaying her strange erratic behavior in several situations like she was tweaking out.
Then, compare that to the different looking and erratic behaviors of the Joe Bidens. One has to wonder what is going on with these people and what are they doing with them. They have have tools and technology they keep from us as well so is it such a far fetched theory they use masks and clones because they definitely can?
What does all that mean?
Makes me wonder what crazy sinister stuff they are doing to people. The truth is stranger than fiction and realistically, I'm not sure I could handle the whole truth. It is incomprehensibly evil.
Thinking outside the box might should include this Scripture:
Ephesians 6:12 (NKJV)
āFor we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.ā
And Romans 1 (TLV) here is a portion
28 And just as they did not see fit to recognize God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what is not fitting. 29 They became filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents. 31 They are foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know Godās righteous decreeāthat those who practice such things deserve deathāthey not only do them but also approve of others who practice the same.
There are those who have been āā¦.turned over to a reprobate mind and be damnedā¦ā¦ā
So are these those who who sit in āhigh places ā?
Because they certainly seem to have been turned over to a reprobate mind. And she was depraved, wicked BEFORE the current technology. It seems to me, from reading about her, she made some evil choices as a very young woman whom she would serve. And she chose self
I believe those in high places are demonic powers and principalities. After all, if our fight is not with flesh and blood, then the enemy is not the human bot in front of us, but the spiritual entity holding the game boy controller to move them.
Good verses and speaking about spiritual battles...
It will be revealed. 1000 years to us is like a day to God so I will try to be patient.
Hillary and those in power are tares... probably all of them. I doubt even Trump or anyone gets a position without these principalities' control BUT God's plan works beyond our pea brains and works through all people.
The John 16 verses tell say we cannot bear it and i think because it is so heinous and unthinkable what these devil worshippers do.
Galatians 6:9 ESV
[9] And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
Matthew 13:38-42
[38] the field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; [39] the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. [40] As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. [41] The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; [42] and shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Philippians 4:6-7 ESV
[6] do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. [7] And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
John 16:12-13
[12] āI still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. [13] When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.
Anything is possible. I keep an open mind. Look what the jabs have done to people and we don't know everything that was in them. They have been shown to cause neuro issues. Imagine with tech, slipping a microchip into someone and resetting their physiology/neurology in some way.
Or, one could just assume she is infested with demons. Back in the 90s when I was living in California, I heard rumors she was involved with a witches coven there. No idea if itās true, but just look at her eyes. Crazy resides there.
She is a pathetic character and I do not think she is truly loved by many close to her. Her husband cheated on her time and time again which is an embarrassment, she is not attractive inside or out and she is wanting for peace in her life, true peace. I think she also has low self esteem which is easy to see even if she has hubris. We should thank God that we are not like her and do not have to suffer the awfulness of her life.
@Dawn- She was at a dinner I attended and stood 5' from me when she entered. The hairon the back of my neck went up and I immediately thought Good God. She's a sociopath." No exaggeration.
She is a psycho, whose documented emotional issues and aggression required heavy tranquilizers. Similarly to Biden, it was clear to objective observers.
...heavy tranquilizers, heavy uppers, downers and everything else in between. Like in the movie RFK when then First Lady Jackie confesses to the queen of England that they are given a "vitamin cocktail" to keep them going...from event to event...in that crazy, hectic paced life of a POTUS and FLOTUS
She is a psycho, whose documented emotional issues and aggression required heavy tranquilizers. Similarly to Biden, it was clear to objective observers.
Oh, remember the former FBI lady that talked about how the government employed the Hollywood mask makers? Hillary in the Trump debate that looked slim, young and confidentādefinitely not her. So many times Biden not real. You could look at his hands and tell. Not wrinkled and age spotted. Didnāt use them the same way.
Donna, yes I say that and they likely do it all the time even with Trump and Putin... whatever we see on TV, none of it can really be trusted.
At this point I can only trust the Bible and even that gets questioned. The Word is living and was in the beginning. If God is God, He can preserve the Bible for His people.
Well, she's most likely MKUltra'ed and that makes people "glitch," the most famous being Britney Spears while being interviewed, went from one emotion and personality to another in 1 second.
I grew up near HRC, just a few miles apart in Park Ridge, IL. We are a day apart in age. I knew people who hung out and went to school with her. She was from a very conservative, religous, Republican family.
That is interesting. How did she become a monster? You never know what goes on behind closed doors. I never let my children have sleep overs and kids were always at my house instead.
She practices occult and necromancy..she delights in seeing dead people, she worships power..all this, to me, says that she has opened her soul to demonic entities which may have possessed her.
Yes, possessed no doubt, she's done much worse like what was on Weiners laptop but she has done so much more. Nothing in this world could punish her enough.
I viewed the Candace Owens - Tucker Carlson interview. It's long but fascinating ... and as a kind of 'where we are' in the shifting sands of the moment.
She has a lot to say about all the gaslighting going on. This sort of speaks to your post.
It has seemed to me, especially if late, that the two of them are doing a LOT of gaslighting, themselves. Beginning to believe Tucker is a DS operative.
It was a great interview. How anyone can say she's crazy after listening to her, I don't know. Even more compelling was the interview with Professor Mearsheimer. It's a must-see!
The enemies of Truth most likely could have gotten away with 'Candace is crazy' but Covid really did tear the veil off and opened up eyes. People are now very skeptical of 'media' claims.
Want a laugh? Here's Wikipedia's first two sentences on their Candace Owens Farmer file:
[2] Stets, Regina; Walubengo, Peris (March 20, 2024). "Candace Owens' husband: what is known about George Farmer?". Legit.ng. Retrieved December 30, 2024. (I clicked on the the information link and found George is the hated privileged rich white dude with a net worth of some one hundred and eighty millions. But still worse, he studied Christian theology.)
[3] "'Stalin was Jewish, Kabbalists are pedophiles': Candace Owens's antisemitic conspiracies". The Jerusalem Post. August 15, 2024. (This strange. But this is the Jerusalem Post whose banner in blue background with white lettering reads: TRACKING ANTISEMITISM WORLDWIDE. 24/7. And if Stalin was Jewish, he was a strange one because he attended the Gori Church School and later studied for the Russian Orthodox priesthood at the Tiflis Theological Seminary. Candace probably didn't assert this. Maybe Tate in the interview did. But who knows? And in Wikipedia Land the footnotes just have to look impressive because nobody reads them anyway)
I'll take a look at your recommendation. Take good care of yourself Natalie!
Iām not understanding the AI water thingā¦once it cools the computers, why canāt it be recycled? Let the hot water cool down and water lawns with it? Idk can yāall enlighten me? Even dirty water can be used on a lawnā¦
Anne - absolutely. And add the so called āeliteā mindset - āRules for thee but not for me.ā Sheās always done exactly as she pleased politically as there have been no consequences.
Yes. Just like a toddler who is constantly testing you to see what they can get by with. When bad behavior results in negative consequences you get a reasonably well adjusted child and later adult. When bad behavior results in nothing, or is even rewarded, you get a bratty kid and an adult who is entitled and will stop at nothing to get their way. The political machine has been that toddler and too many parents (citizens) have either ignored the behavior or voted for those who engage in it, as catching them in the act and holding them accountable is too much trouble.
Surely she must have been told by someone that using a personal server was leaving herself open to being exposed to foreign government spying. But maybe I am underestimating the power of hubris.
Those who have access to classified information receive very thorough training in necessity security measures. She had the training and chose to ignore it.
Surely you mean all the money they've stolen from the American citizens, donations for the Haiti people who are still waiting for their homes to be built...not holding their breath. ONLY silver lining in these dark clouds is that God is NEVER mocked! He will repay with due interest!
An insecure server can operate as a sort of dead drop. She can feign innocence when it gets hacked by shady foreigners, and then she can act grateful when shady foreigners donate millions to the ācharityā that keeps her family comfy.
You ask that question as a normal, ordinary, responsible person. You ask that question as an honest, law abiding citizen. You ask that question as someone who believes there are consequences to actions. Hillary is none of those. Her ways are not your ways. She is surrounded by like-minded individuals and systems that allow her to do the complete opposite of what an honest, conscientious person would do. And she has had decades of getting away with her actions, crimes, and fraud. Why would things be difference with her posting classified information on a personal server or sending problematic emails? She does whatever evil, criminal acts she does because she can. And even now, with all the exposure of the truth I am not holding my breath that she will not get away with everything again.
Hillary is not alone - she is part of a culture and cabal where morals and accountability are foreign. I still think often of the interview with Lyndon Johnson's mistress gave a a year before she died that I first ran across several years ago. She was not part of the inner circle, but had a bird's eye view of it. Her matter of fact accounting of how people were 'disappeared', ruined or run roughshod over in pursuit of power and money was chilling. And this was >60 years ago. Made me realize that many powerful people in our history would stop at nothing to hold on to power. Worth a watch (but it's long) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POmdd6HQsus It's dated 2011, but the actual interview was in 2001; she died in 2002.
With that knowledge, why would you even want to be near him (heard he was a real pric*) let alone sleep with him. Vomit moment for sure. That broad must have had a screw loose for sure.
Have watched it a couple of times since as I was thinking the same thing. I see it as the typical path of sin. We do something wrong, and then justify it to ourselves, but that then requires more sin to both cover our butts and continue the lie we tell ourselves that we are still a 'good person'. It amazed me that she really seemed to have few regrets - despite the death of her son (that she did tear up) that was the direct result of the Johnson's people. I think she was living an exciting life as part of that circle and never really wanted to give that up. At the time of the interview she knew her time was short and likely liked the attention. But her use of the words 'colorful' to describe these criminals seemed to indicate to me that she never really reckoned with her acceptance of this life.
In her interview with Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens talks large to valuing the things of the world over Truth and the consequences thereof. And if its money, power or fame, then these things control a person and that person loses personal autonomy. That is, such people become some else's and/or something else's puppet on a string. Basically, it boils down to 'he who so loves the world does not love me (Christ/God)'. The application is that we as life must choose between the Truth over the whims of self-aggrandizement. But in my own little life's experiences I observe that most people, even people said to be 'of Faith', fudge things at the drop of a hat and all the time.
And I will give you a little example. Around 2018/2019 one could Bitcoin in the form of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF (GBTC) for $3.59 to $6.00 some ... and now GBTC is $90.00 a share. And also one could buy actual Bitcoin and quite possibly with much greater profit.
At any rate, this was a lot of USD to pass up but I did so because Bitcoin is a fraud. That is, Bitcoin disappears the second the grid is off. Bitcoin simply is not money of substance and so there weight or measure to it. Like, FRNs or any digital coin, it's imaginary fake 'money' sold to the public as something real. Digital anything is simply control coin/currency. And because people love the things the world more than the Lord, they will walk into the snare with eyes wide open.
Donna, the book, "Thanks For The Memories" exposes the MKULTRA program by a young woman that was mind controlled from her childhood. The stuff she was exposed to is unbelievable but believable. It is an eye-opener and MANY of the big name Hollywood people and politicians, ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP, are involved. It's a difficult read but worth learning the truth.
You reminded me of her past, when Bill was still governor. There were signs then of her sense of entitlement. And then there was the question of who fathered Chelsea.
It wasn't stupid, it was all intentional. Why? For the $$$-honey! Selling Top Secret info to our enemies can be a lucrative business. Straight thru the Clinton "Money Laundering" Foundation into so many pockets. The Clintons alone (setting aside all the co-conspirators) made MILLIONS, with Bill & Hillary's gross estimated personal wealth reaching over 250 MILLION. That kind of $$$ doesn't come from "speeches" as they like to claim. Straight up Treason! There's your explanation! A tough pill to swallow, for sure, but many Americans have yet to face this TRUTH - and must do so if we are to save this country.
And Biden trying to follow in her footsteps with his son and brothers ..... he just couldn't get as much money and was dumb enough to get caught too many times.
just saw biden on the news. he looks like a skeleton, his face is so thin and he overall is in bad shape. can you imagine if he were the president? autopen would not have been enough.
When have the rules ever applied to the Clintonās? Why would it be any different sending classified emails. Their whole modus operandi has been to do whatever they want, get help covering up their bad deeds, murder anyone who might talk, shrug their shoulders when they get caught, ask, āWhat difference, at this point, does it make?ā and walk away from any consequences. Why would she have thought it would be any different with the emails?
excellent summary. now we need to find out why she deleted thousands of emails. What was she hiding. Of course, the Mockingbird media has never had any interest.
Yep. They have all electronic records, but somehow we never find the answers. Kind of like how Maxwell gets imprisoned but her stories never come to light.
Crazy when Trump later was praising as 'good people' Hill and Bill and toasting them at a big gala. Was he just playing politics, or is he just as much swamp as them?
Like his full support and complicity with Israel's mass-slaughter of innocent Gazans... like his war crime unprovoked bombings of Yemen and Iran... like rope a dope delays on releasing the Epstein files, let alone the promised 911 and JFK files (all to protect Israel and Mossad)... like his refusal to ban the Covid death-jabs outright... like his ongoing funding and arming of Ukraine... like his constant clownish attempts to bully, threaten and harass good guy Putin and Russia... like his insane push to start QE again (lower interest rates) which will put a final nail in the US dollar and, perhaps, collapse the markets as well...
My poor brother is giddy with anticipation of someone finally going to jail. Iām less optimistic as in nope not going to happen. He told me more whistleblowers have come forth. I laughed: āyea, I bet they have. They can see the writing on the wall. They know the Hilary Clintons and Barack Obamas of the world will never face a moment of reckoning so theyāll come after all the peons down chain for retribution.ā
Yea, I bet theyāre coming forward and making deals.
There is a Bureaucratic/Administrative State embedded inside āthe governmentā which has been metastasizing throughout the US for 75 years. It replenishes itself with like-minded sycophants through each generation. Its reach now extends globally. Those favored few that attain protected leadership status are above the law. The Media is a captured facilitator of the Agenda. It appears Donald Trump is a threat to this Agenda.
I can just imagine the guy they had following her around with a tranquilizer needle for every time she went manic/bipolar. Like Sigourney Weaverās character in Ghostbusters.
For the water problem from AI. They just need to set up closed cooling circuits like are used in Nuclear Power Plants (because of radiation) or automobiles (because they have to carry their cooling systems). Theyāre evaporating the water because itās cheaper. Charge them for it and theyāll find another way.
I read up on what it would cost for an average DC to use a closed loop system, similar to geothermal. Once filled it just circulates through the system and back. In geothermal the pipes are usually 3-6ft deep and the water stays at the ground temperature at that point. Where we are it's about 55 degrees. In TX you might need to go deeper for the cooler temperatures.
The system alone for an average sized DC would be $5M and at least $20M for larger ones. They would rather just pump water from a source, than to pay for a recycle system.
Any approval board needs to force them to use closed loop or build a new reservoir (around $1B). SMRs will pretty much take care of both, but they still need to be forced to use a closed loop system.
We put in a geothermal heating/cooling system about 15 years ago. We have limestone rock about a foot under the grass, so we had 6 360 foot vertical shafts drilled. Works great. At the time it was considered a new technology in this city, and ours was the first property to have it. We wound up with piles of limestone dust that was distributed around our neighborhood by the wind. š®šµāš«ššµāš«
We put one in a house we built (for a customer) and ran it horizontally because we had the area to do it. We ran 8 lines, 600 ft total (300 out and back). We had a split system (one 3 and another 5 ton unit) in the house (6300 sq ft house) house. That was in 2008 and it's been working great from what we hear.
It's much more expensive to have to drill vertically rather laying out horizontally.
Look at it that someone else will be paying for the energy it produces. It will help with the stress on the Grid.
A funny story for you. My FIL was a nuclear boiler designer for 50 years. The day TMI had it's meltdown, he was awakened in the middle of the night and told to GET THERE NOW. The and the NRC wanted him there to determine what happened. He was (I think) the first or second outside person to go inside. I was fascinated when I found this out as I remember the incident well. I spent many hours talking to him about what happened. He stated NOTHING bad (outside the reactor) was damaged, NOTHING leaked. All the systems worked as they should have. There were no three legged cows, no 20' across freak sunflowers. The media, as usual, freaked and stoked all kinds of rumors. Always remember when the media "hair" is on fire, their slogan is "if it bleeds, it leads". They are all about hysteria.
On top of that, I live about 15 miles from a Nuclear plant that went through one of the worst earthquakes on the east coast, a 5.8 with it's epicenter probably 10 miles =/- from the nuclear plant. As a precaution it was shut down to check that there were no issues. After the inspection it was found that it weathered the quake just fine. It has been running since 1978. It provides 17% of the states energy. It's operation has been approved through 2060 at this time.
I think you'll be ok when they reopen the one reactor at TMI. The other reactor has still been running all this time.
That is a super cool story and I thank you. I was a young bride and nurse working in public health at the time. We would have been responsible for distributing iodine pills to prevent radioactive iodine poisoning had the situation escalated. We also would have needed to help evacuate the area and frankly, I remember thinking I wanted to run the other way! But those of us in the area were not as panicked as outsiders. When visiting my parents in VA, President Carter was visiting the reactor and I had no idea it was national news. That summer tourism in Lancaster County died as we also had the Polio scare and the gas crisis.
Yes, but what about withstanding ballistic missiles? No one ever talks about how war might impact down-winders living near these smaller nuclear power plants that are being considered.
In 1988, when we built our house, geothermal was very new and we got a PP&L rebate for putting it in. It is "pump and dump" which uses a lot of water. We would have to put in an entire new system if we went closed loop, but after the recent drought here in southeast PA, we have been thinking about what to do. We have been inundated with rain this spring and summer, so our decision is on hold. Geothermal is very efficient, particularly the AC.
This sounds like the system my parents put in their new build in 1985. They laid a loop coil out in the front yard, which was about 2.5 acres. They had ongoing problems with the AC from the moment we moved in. That guy was out there fixing it every week in the summer. My parents finally sold the house and moved.
SMR - a small nuclear reactor. I don't want one anywhere in the US unless the owners not only will personally use all their money to clean up any mess, but will personally go in to clean it up. And they need to guarantee that 25% of their family members will personally live on site for 6 months and go into the plant to clean it up too.
With those kind of guarantees, we would know they would make safety a priority.
As I said above, I live close to a nuclear plant. My FIL was a nuclear boiler designer. I've lived here for 32 years and there has never been an issue with the plant. It powers 450k homes on just over 1000 acres compared to a utility solar plant even closer to me that barely powers 75k homes and covers 6400 acres (10 sq miles).
No one around here worries about the plant (which is approved until 2060). We just wish they'd finally build the third reactor.
It's a lot harder to get solar and wind developers to pay for or clean up their messes. I'll take nuclear over those any day. Far more efficient and cleaner than any "green/renewable" energy.
It would have to go through all kinds of filtering going in and out, I am sure. That's why closed loop is best. Fill it once and maybe just have to top it off occasionally. It just recirculates the same water.
PRECISELY what I was thinking too!! AI and its minions are supposed to be so smart and progressive??? Duh! Why in the Heck arenāt they using closed system cooling to conserve precious resources???? Water and O2 Are as basic as needed get, yes? ššš
Something needs to be done. I see arrangements already all over the country to set up AI data centers, with little to no discussion about the water and energy requirements. Just setting it up with rural cities that are run by clueless people. Very concerning because there doesn't seem to be any incentive to protect or support the locals through energy and water conservation. Dumping-ground mentality.
My first thought as well - the climate change/environmentalists seem to have dried up concerning AI wastefulness of both electricity and water. And their vast buildings destroying greenspace.
Well, AI is interesting. Sometimes very good at finding correct answers quickly. Sometime very bad, especially if you ask about any of the Marxist shibboleths. Probably thinks if you find Sydney Sweeney attractive youāre a fascist. Just sayināā¦
Well, interestingly Grok got the Sydney Sweeney thing right. But ask it about Climate Change or the relationship between Fascism, Socialism & Communism and it starts spouting the approved narrative. Sometimes a useful tool, but bears watching.
And, of course, itās still a free country, despite attempts to make it otherwise. Do as you will.
I know that Lori is not going to touch it. But for you other adventurersā¦
Well, just for completeness I asked Grok about the Covid vaccines. You will not be surprised to discover that the Covid vaccines are safe and effective, donāt cause SAEs (itās all anecdotal donāt you know), saved millions, etc. Like I said earlier: good with some things, not with others and certainly not trustworthy about the Approved Narrative.
The covid vaccines are now the number one way to evaluate the neutrality of any AI-spewed info. I wonder if Grok is pushed about its truthiness concerning the vaxxes will it fess up and give the true info?
Let A/i die of thirst and lack of power. Humans will always be a million times more important than any A/i thing. Nuclear reactors are fine but don't they also require tons of water? If A/i had any brains, it would build itself in the ocean and figure out how to draw power from it and cool itself off at the same time. Like walking and chewing gum simultaneously...maybe too much of a challenge for those silly techno-nerds.
Yes AI first job should be how to cool itself and use less energy(or find a good way to create more energy). Hope some ones chat bot is working on it. Why donāt we all ask AI this morning to figure it out.
Maybe itās not so smart. Like a baby duck who lost its mom and found a cat to mommy it. Itās amazing and adorable but itās still a duck that imprinted with a cat!
I think the concern is nations that donāt have strong AI will become subservient toā¦possibly even enslaved byā¦those that do.
Itās the new nuclear weapon.
And this concern is founded, no matter how much we wish it werenāt. The government with the biggest guns will be the boss. And if your governments guns are powered by humans making calculations in seconds or minutes and the opponentās guns are powered by AI making decisions in the tiniest fractions of secondsā¦they do have a battlefield advantage. (Not that this is entirely unmanageable but just saying the concern of being behind in AI is valid.)
āIf you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.ā
Let AI design a fake "system" set like the one made for the fake moon landing and let the world think we won the AI race without advancing what we already have.
In a closed world that would work. But like the moon landings (which Russia/China have monitored and verified), the AI war is a battle we can't ignore as our competitors will have systems that will cause us big problems if we don't have our own.
If AI can't cut my grass, pay my bills, clean my house, transport me from place to place (like Star Trek), make/serve me my daily food/water, shovel snow, repair my crumbling house, etc., etc. -- it is useless to me. Also, screw the terrible AI "Art." I am an artist and I can spot "AI Art" a mile away. Terrible, ugly, demonic.
Agree. As I commented to the second-to-top liked thread above, I see these AI data centers being set up in rural communities run by clueless people. No consideration of the massive energy and water needs.
So with the environmental devastation wrought by AI AND bitcoin mining (Iād like to add) are we still supposed to believe in CO2-driven climate change? Just curious as to how our overlords want us to piece these items together.
...."financially incentivized hospitals to push covid shots." To the multiple boosted dorks of the world....let that statement sink in. Your olfactory senses have been obliterated by that face diaper you're still wearing. It's time to rip that useless filthy rag off your puss and wake up and smell, well....your naive selves. You reek. This just in: The "Healthcare Industry" is first and foremost a BU$INE$$ entity.
We have morons in my store wearing face diapers. Now, perhaps some of them have true medical issues, like I know one is recovering (if you want to call it that) from cancer treatment and has zero immune system. But the rest? Sheep.
My elderly neighbor who is visually impaired asked me to take her grocery shopping. She still wears the mask and asked me to. Out of respect I did even in the car. Humbling oneself before God and others has its merits.
I could not do it for any reason. I HAD to at the hospital for my mother who needed excessive non covid medical care during the covid time, but cheated every chance I got because the claustrophobia got the best of me. At this point, they can arrest me if they want. Not doing it anymore for anyone. I did manage to evade the vax psyop, but only just. Kept it from mom also.
I would kindly explain that the latest science shows masks are bad for cutting off your oxygen, and the holes are too large to block disease. She could then choose not to accept my free ride and free time or not, no hard feelings.
On an unrelated note, when my mother was in the hospital, they moved her to a dedicated covid wing at the height of the crisis (2021) because it was entirely empty. Hmmm.
I already had a box of paper masks in my house when the Covid scam hit. The reason I had them was because we have dust storms where I live and I often had to walk my dog after them. (And dust storms throw Valley Fever fungi up into the air, which can get you very sick if you breathe it in.) IMO, dust storms and doing yard work with pollen allergies are the only reason to put those things on oneās face. Anything smaller than dust, fungi, or pollen will go right through it. The paper masks arenāt even enough protection for spray painting.
I have thought about wearing one when I garden, because my allergies are terrible. But I'm afraid my neighbors will think I'm a Covidiot, so I just keep sneezing.
How is wearing a face mask humbling yourself before God? So rather than reassuring this lady that the world is not a germ filled place of danger you went along with her fear based requestā is that correct? Iām not trying to be snotty or rude. Iām just trying to figure out how you have come to the conclusion that somehow you were humbling yourself.
Never forget, being blamed for killing grandma is how that whole batch of nonsense started. Grandma needs to turn off the 24 hour television channels and get real.
And those are good alternatives. She does have groceries delivered but is homebound and needs to get out occasionally. Good suggestionsš. Thank you š
Being a welder/ metalsmith, unfortunately I have to live in them on work days. Beats inhaling the dust I create. If I have something small to do, and dont want to be bothered, I feel the effects of not wearing one Immediately. But, never in public. Why would I?
No Iām referring to n95s. I buy them by the case. When you grind rusty metal, or even clean metal, you get steel, or stainless, or zinc, airborn. Depending on what you are working with. So yeah, 12 hours in a mask isnāt unusual. Just saying, I know they do nothing for viral sized particulate, so I find it funny the stupid shit people have done for tte last five years. But my point is there is a need, and Iām glad I had one today, rusty steel grinding to prepare for a weld, 90 degrees, and no wind.
My husband had a double lung transplant post covid and was asked to wear a mask when we travel, since I do not have a mask on, as I am not immunocompromised, itās shocking and rude how many people feel they can shame us by saying none of this works since I do not have a mask on. We get it, truly we do, but move along and be kind or say nothing. Truly no oneās business.
On a side note, heās a surgeon and patients are protected by the OR team wearing masks so who really knows?
I hope your husband has recovered fully and is doing well with a high quality of life. Please offer him my best regards and a hug from me please. That surgery was tremendous along with then having to start taking immunosuppressives afterward. Transplants and the suppression meds do put the body at risk in many ways. I am glad he wore his mask as that can also afford peace of mind. A study back a few years did show that masks don't work generally speaking but N95's were the best if one has to wear a mask. Whenever someone says something derogatory, tell them to thank God they are healthy and not challenged as some are. Sometimes people do not think before they speak or understand the gravity of a situation, especially health related. Wishing you both all the best and thinking of the person who made the donation that enabled your husband to live his life.
My good friend just had her tongue removed dt turbo cancer fr being jabbed. Remade tongue with thigh muscle. Had to have a trach and feeding tube, chemo and radiation. She is highly immune suppressed right now so in a case like this, her doc wants a mask on her. I get it and agree as she is too vulnerable and sick from chemo and radiation and has lost 50 pounds from all this.
Not a fan of wearing a mask just because, but lived in Japan for 5 years and still have the habit of wearing a mask when unwell and coughing for the same reason one uses a handkerchief and turns away from others when coughing.
It makes zero sense. Nano-scale virus particles aren't stopped by those masks. And they make it worse by building up the nasties inside the masks. Yikes.
You should never wear a mask and block fresh air and keep whatever youāre coughing out right next to your face to breathe it back in. Itās disgusting. Handkerchief were cotton. Now youāre breathing in microplastics and maybe chemicals. Where are the studies that show wearing a mask keeps you healthier and prevents others from getting sick ?
That part where the body is trying to get rid of stuff but the mask holds it near the face. Always wore a cotton mask when I could back in the day instead of the plastic ones. And learned to carry a handkerchief with me. And try to avoid going out when Iām sick. Having worked in hotels during covid, I have seen many creative approaches to mask wearing, that is for sure.
True, but the Japanese think it is the polite thing to do and it predates Covid. When we were in Japan 20 years ago, we asked our tour guide about it....and he told us it was out of politeness.
There are lovely things we can do out of politeness, but Iām thinking of all the wrong things we might do out of politeness. Itās not always the right reason.
We were there in the wintertime and the air in Tokyo wasn't bad. Anyhow, our tour guide was a native Japanese man and he said people wore them because they had colds. White cloth masks are worthless against air pollution.
Yes, the Chinese wear masks because of air pollution.
āThisā purpose? My purpose when I occasional wear a mask is to prevent coughing droplets on other people, same purpose as a handkerchief but easier since I donāt have to reach for a cloth.
The Japanese don't wear N95s, at least not before Covid they didn't. As I recall, the people we saw wore white cloth masks. As BeadleBlog said, I think they are intended to help the same as handkerchiefs. Nobody wants to be sneezed on or end up with somebody else's snot blown on them.
yes those dont work but I was answering RT when he said masks don't work and I said N95s do. Whether the japanese wear or don't wear them is not my concern.
Thank you for your comment. I wasn't a covid hysteric and covid mask wearer, but some go overboard on the other end of the spectrum. I have a friend who went around making fun of every mask wearer she would see. I read about a lady on a flight who was harassed about her mask. She was undergoing chemo for cancer so a compromised immune system. I don't worry about what other people choose to do.
The incentives must be dwindling now because I just saw an ad telling shoppers that they get $20 off their grocery purchases if they take the jab while they shop for their tofu and oat milk.
There is a ministry called Christian Law Association whose ministry newsletter used to have one page of large font prayer requests for the legal problems they were dealing with. Their latest is 2 pages (!) of small font. I naively thought because of recent Supreme Court rulings, these things werenāt causing problems for Christians. Not true.

Wow! So many states there as bad as California! The encroachment on our legal rights for religious people is so blatant! we definitely need to pray for all these things! And if we donāt push back, it will get worse!
Just glancing at these, at least some of these, maybe most, are illegal. These people should call alliance defending freedom, who would send out a letter to the entity and the bias would stop immediately. Or they would be taken to court.
I appreciate what he has to say, but he does scare me a little bit! There is something out of balance there. I think he has a challenging time facing personal demons.
His main home burned. Of course he has the money to be able to live in someplace decent and wait the amount of time needed to rebuild, but still, he lost a lot of personal mementos. He was out of town when it burned and wasn't able to get things out of his house.
āHillary Clinton got in trouble being dumb, tried to save herself by doing something dumberā¦ā I would use WRONG in place of ādumbā, and then did something āmore wrong/immoral/illegalā.
Ok as a Houston resident this sounds glorious. I am currently sitting on my back patio with condensation on my skin (seriously, not sweatā¦ condensation from coming outside from air conditioning).
Same in Missouri. The humidity just broke yesterday. I have lived here nearly 40 years, it gets bad. The past 3 years have been hot but dry. This year was a reminder of what our weather can really do.
I wonder if this moisture in the atmosphere will cause more winter snow.
I wonder if the water that is used for cooling, since it's not radioactive, can then just be used for domestic hot water and radiant heating. Is there any reason why the water would be contaminated? The old steam system of New York comes to mind. Put the data centers where it's cold and use the waste heat.
Personally, I'm incredibly anti-AI, it's already dumbing people down, and that trend is showing no signs of stopping.
My twelve year old reading the AI consumption portion: āwell, thatās the trend. First plants and animals are more important than humans, now computers and robots are too.ā š³
I realize thereās more nuance than that but heās not wrongā¦
Indeed I do. "Soylent Green is people." You bring up a real possibility. One of the best movies ever. Also note how people voluntarily euthanzie themselves in the movie and how it is encouraged.
Crap, I did not know that...notice what I did there, lol!
I will check it out. If it is coming from China and we eat yogurt or probiotics, kefir etc, we got the spike protein in us as it passes through to the feces when you have covid. Fermented veges and sourdough would keep you away from that option. And I have to say it for levity sake, Holy Shit! Thanks for the info I think......
Yikes! I hadn't anything about the AI water-hog problem. This is quintessential C&C and is why I love this newsletter--learning about what is unreported or under reported elsewhere. Thanks, JC!!
So why then do Dems now love Nuclear Power when they stopped it years ago saying it was too dangerous? Because they are the ones to profit from it. It isnāt like it got any safer or we have a good way to store the spent fuel. Dems are actually removing dams that create electricity. It isnāt because Ai is a technology that they are particularly fond of either. They hate Peter Thiel. Hillary Clinton as Sec State made a deal with the Russians to sale American rights to American uranium. https://www.congress.gov/116/meeting/house/109694/documents/HHRG-116-II06-20190625-SD004.pdf
If the Ai data centers need so much water to cool the equipment, why the heck are they putting them in the south where it's hot & humid & water is scarce? Looks like some state/city/county govts made some stupid deals. (Texas, I'm looking at you!!!)
Wide swaths of flat land requiring very little excavation or reshaping?? Illinois has a state full of that and we get cold. What northern states have few hills and mountains? Havenāt had my coffee yet so foggy brain ā¦
Texas is business friendly but the Great Lakes states are not. So the blue-purple states hang onto their water and suck Texas dry with their AI queries.
My thoughts exactly. Look to the northwest; although itās a blue state, and manufacturing and production are incompatible with the mindset, they are wet most of the time. Build data centers there.
The upper midwest would seem to be the logical choice for these centers. There's plenty of water, and most of the year you wouldn't even need a water cooled system, just don't heat the place as much.
As for God, His way is blameless;
The word of the LORD is tried;
He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

For those who asked for me to update on first grandbaby arrival: She flipped to breech at last minute last night, so my daughter had to have an emergency c-section. Baby is level 2 NICU. Daughter is ok, but it was a grueling 24+ hours. Prayers are appreciated. I will probably be staying near for as long as possible. Thank you.
šš Praise God for both their lives, and may He quickly intervene and surround the baby with vibrant health and strength while bringing peace to the heart of your daughter. I had three C-sections myself, my last ended up in the NICU and I remember the intensity of those first three days. God hear our prayers.
Thank you. Amen.
It's so difficult and challenging. Our son was a planned C because he was breach (and big) and our daughter was an emergency C (cord around her neck) just 17 months earlier. Delivery seemed fine but he had a stroke the next day. Thanks be to God our pediatrician was doing her first check of our son when he had a full seizure. Off to the NICU he went.....for 2 1/2 weeks. He's a healthy, kind, hard working college grad in a management position at Amazon. God is good....all the time.
Praying for you all Janice.
What's wrong with you?? Janice asks for prayer for her daughter and grandbaby and your creepy is to post a troll comment?
Subhuman
Fred honey, it's a bot. You're not replying to somebody. You're replying to a machine.
I understand that, but maybe there's actual human, worthy of shame. Or, maybe, there's an actual human programming the bot.
Or, maybe, other humans will read this and not take the clickbait. One never knows.
Annoying regardless; someone is behind the bot, right?
fxs - youāve been blocked, bot.
Prayers for your grand baby, daughter and your family.
š
Congratulations! What a joyful time despite that emergency c-section... We rejoice even as we pray for His healing to overwhelm every circumstance of her arrival and your daughter's care. We serve a God who is surprised by nothing! There is His presence even in this birth! May this precious baby girl never know a day without Jesus! Blessings Janice, to your a yours! Enjoy this and every moment! We celebrate with you!
Praying for you all. š
Prayers for your growing family. šš¼
Praying right now for your daughter and her family, and for you.
Another brilliant flame sent into the world adding goodness and light. Angels will surround and protect her while God looks upon her with joy at the new life added to our world and to a loving family.
Prayers for you all Janice! š©·
Congratulations!! Praying!!

God bless you and your family and special blessings on your precious grandchild.

Yep. Hillary posted classified information on a personal server, deleted emails under subpoena and framed her political opponent with a blatant lie. The FBI caught herā¦..and immediately opened an intense investigation on ā¦ā¦Trump!
Probably decades of political entitlement where she did what she pleased and was not only protected but rewarded.
Well, given that the consequences of standing up to the Clintons was suicide ...
Ikr?
One of the first things Bill Clinton did when he was in office was to request the FBI files of everyone in Congress (and more if I recall). People played nice after that. I'm sure Hillary had access to that info.
I didnāt know this; no surprise.
Can ya get more evil than Hillary & Obama?
Oh, I would add Bill, & make it a triumvirate, he doesnāt deserve a pass just because he seems like he is a nice guy.
What? I think we the people should have those!
It took a few prompts from ChatGPT to cough up references, because it kept trying to avoid mention of members of congress included in the records request. It's called "Filegate".
Here's what I finally go from chatgpt, and it included sources (don't know if the links come through)
Key Media Coverage on Congressional FBI Files
1. The New Yorker ā āDid the Feds Break the Law?ā (July 1996)
This investigative article explored the legal fallout of the FBI providing sensitive background files to the Clinton White House without individual consent. It highlighted that many recordsāincluding those of congressional interns and staffāwere included in the improper disclosure, and raised legal concerns under the Privacy Act of 1974

2. The Washington Post and The New York Times (JuneāSeptember 1996)
Press accounts and congressional hearing summaries made clear that the White House had obtained as many as 400ā900 FBI files, and some of those files pertained to congressional figures or their staff. Committee reports and media articles noted that Republican lawmakers discovered these files while probing both Travelgate and Filegate

3. Vanity Fair ā āWhite House Aides: They Who Serve and Sufferā (December 1996)
This piece reviewed the personal and legal consequences for aides involved in Filegate. While focusing mostly on staffers, it mentioned broader congressional involvement when discussing how investigations uncovered files on Capitol Hill personnel as part of the broader scandal

In covering FBI Director Louis Freehās criticism of the White House, the article referenced the controversy that arose when the FBI turned over hundreds of dossiersāincluding those on congressional staffāas part of the Clinton administrationās efforts to update its personnel files

BTW, ChatGPT only trusts liberal sites as trustworthy media.
You'll be interested to know that all of the popular AI platforms are biased towards liberal causes. Here's a report regarding Claude being instructed to NOT assist in research regarding 2020 election fraud claims.
https://zarkfiles.substack.com/p/a-new-and-worthy-substack-from-the?publication_id=1170737&post_id=169947440&isFreemail=true&r=ow5al&triedRedirect=true
Well, the files were found in her office. Soā¦
I think this should be outed same as Epsteinās clients; probably some overlap there!
One of my motherās friends knew a lot of Secret Service members. No one wanted to be on it because it was a ādeath sentenceā.
Really? Is that true?
Yes. Look for "Filegate" references. I'd look on other search engines besides Google. They don't seem to be too trustworthy with news/info that exposes liberal figures.
Thanks, I used DDG. Do you know how āfilegateā relates to the files that were inexplicably āfoundā in the presidential living quarters - I think during Clintonās 2nd term?
Someone else mentioned above that those were the files found in Hillary's office.
Wow! I donāt remember that, but I believe it.
Marxists do what they want to obtain and hold power.
Does anyone know why HRC would do something as stupid as posting classified information on a personal server, and send emails that she must have known were problematic? I donāt think Iāve ever seen an explanation for this downright dumb behavior.
I canāt remember anyone ever saying she was intelligent or wise.
Just diabolically evil, hateful, angry, entitled, selfish, willing to sell her soul to satan for a half-penny to gain an inch of power.
But smart?
No.
She has never been called that.
I remember some of the lapdog media calling her the smartest woman in the world. But I think they had confused cunning for intelligence.
She's as smart as Joe Biden's son Hunter is the most brilliant person he knows... š¤¦š¼āāļøš¤¦š¼āāļøš¤¦š¼āāļø
ššš
Not the brightest bulb in the bunch.
But the sneakiest Lori and evil
Both her and her husband have a lot of skeletons in their closets.
I agree
I wonder if she is even human.
Call me crazy but I wonder outside the box of reality although I'd prefer to stay in it.
When i think of HRC, I keep replaying her strange erratic behavior in several situations like she was tweaking out.
Then, compare that to the different looking and erratic behaviors of the Joe Bidens. One has to wonder what is going on with these people and what are they doing with them. They have have tools and technology they keep from us as well so is it such a far fetched theory they use masks and clones because they definitely can?
What does all that mean?
Makes me wonder what crazy sinister stuff they are doing to people. The truth is stranger than fiction and realistically, I'm not sure I could handle the whole truth. It is incomprehensibly evil.
However, God knows and their plans will fail.
Thinking outside the box might should include this Scripture:
Ephesians 6:12 (NKJV)
āFor we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.ā
And Romans 1 (TLV) here is a portion
28 And just as they did not see fit to recognize God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what is not fitting. 29 They became filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents. 31 They are foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know Godās righteous decreeāthat those who practice such things deserve deathāthey not only do them but also approve of others who practice the same.
There are those who have been āā¦.turned over to a reprobate mind and be damnedā¦ā¦ā
So are these those who who sit in āhigh places ā?
Because they certainly seem to have been turned over to a reprobate mind. And she was depraved, wicked BEFORE the current technology. It seems to me, from reading about her, she made some evil choices as a very young woman whom she would serve. And she chose self
I believe those in high places are demonic powers and principalities. After all, if our fight is not with flesh and blood, then the enemy is not the human bot in front of us, but the spiritual entity holding the game boy controller to move them.
Or they are simply controlled by demonic powers which they themselves have invited in.
Or. If they have been āturned over to a reprobate mindā then they may be demon possessed.
Good verses and speaking about spiritual battles...
It will be revealed. 1000 years to us is like a day to God so I will try to be patient.
Hillary and those in power are tares... probably all of them. I doubt even Trump or anyone gets a position without these principalities' control BUT God's plan works beyond our pea brains and works through all people.
The John 16 verses tell say we cannot bear it and i think because it is so heinous and unthinkable what these devil worshippers do.
Galatians 6:9 ESV
[9] And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
Matthew 13:38-42
[38] the field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; [39] the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. [40] As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. [41] The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; [42] and shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Philippians 4:6-7 ESV
[6] do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. [7] And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
John 16:12-13
[12] āI still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. [13] When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.
Absolutely.
And the tares are taken firstā¦..the wheat is āleft behindā.
Anything is possible. I keep an open mind. Look what the jabs have done to people and we don't know everything that was in them. They have been shown to cause neuro issues. Imagine with tech, slipping a microchip into someone and resetting their physiology/neurology in some way.
Or, one could just assume she is infested with demons. Back in the 90s when I was living in California, I heard rumors she was involved with a witches coven there. No idea if itās true, but just look at her eyes. Crazy resides there.
She is a pathetic character and I do not think she is truly loved by many close to her. Her husband cheated on her time and time again which is an embarrassment, she is not attractive inside or out and she is wanting for peace in her life, true peace. I think she also has low self esteem which is easy to see even if she has hubris. We should thank God that we are not like her and do not have to suffer the awfulness of her life.
She has been given over to the demonic.
I believe that.
@Dawn- She was at a dinner I attended and stood 5' from me when she entered. The hairon the back of my neck went up and I immediately thought Good God. She's a sociopath." No exaggeration.
No doubt!
I once had a similar close encounter with a grizzly.
She is a psycho, whose documented emotional issues and aggression required heavy tranquilizers. Similarly to Biden, it was clear to objective observers.
...heavy tranquilizers, heavy uppers, downers and everything else in between. Like in the movie RFK when then First Lady Jackie confesses to the queen of England that they are given a "vitamin cocktail" to keep them going...from event to event...in that crazy, hectic paced life of a POTUS and FLOTUS
She is a psycho, whose documented emotional issues and aggression required heavy tranquilizers. Similarly to Biden, it was clear to objective observers.
Documented by what reliable source?
Russia. Certainly more reliable than US intelligence. Have you seen what a bunch of liars US intelligence has proven to be?
Oh, remember the former FBI lady that talked about how the government employed the Hollywood mask makers? Hillary in the Trump debate that looked slim, young and confidentādefinitely not her. So many times Biden not real. You could look at his hands and tell. Not wrinkled and age spotted. Didnāt use them the same way.
Donna, yes I say that and they likely do it all the time even with Trump and Putin... whatever we see on TV, none of it can really be trusted.
At this point I can only trust the Bible and even that gets questioned. The Word is living and was in the beginning. If God is God, He can preserve the Bible for His people.
Rumor has said the "elites" do strange things to their children to keep them in line..
SRA
???
Well, she's most likely MKUltra'ed and that makes people "glitch," the most famous being Britney Spears while being interviewed, went from one emotion and personality to another in 1 second.
I grew up near HRC, just a few miles apart in Park Ridge, IL. We are a day apart in age. I knew people who hung out and went to school with her. She was from a very conservative, religous, Republican family.
That is interesting. How did she become a monster? You never know what goes on behind closed doors. I never let my children have sleep overs and kids were always at my house instead.
She went to Wellesley, where she wrote her senior thesis on Saul Alinskyās Rules for Radicals, if I recall correctly.
She practices occult and necromancy..she delights in seeing dead people, she worships power..all this, to me, says that she has opened her soul to demonic entities which may have possessed her.
Yes, possessed no doubt, she's done much worse like what was on Weiners laptop but she has done so much more. Nothing in this world could punish her enough.
I viewed the Candace Owens - Tucker Carlson interview. It's long but fascinating ... and as a kind of 'where we are' in the shifting sands of the moment.
She has a lot to say about all the gaslighting going on. This sort of speaks to your post.
It has seemed to me, especially if late, that the two of them are doing a LOT of gaslighting, themselves. Beginning to believe Tucker is a DS operative.
This makes you pause & think:
https://rumble.com/v6t3qll-is-everything-an-op-no-but-the-important-stories-never-go-viral.-why-is-tha.html?e9s=src_v1_sa%2Csrc_v1_sa_m%2Csrc_v1_upp_a
It was a great interview. How anyone can say she's crazy after listening to her, I don't know. Even more compelling was the interview with Professor Mearsheimer. It's a must-see!
The enemies of Truth most likely could have gotten away with 'Candace is crazy' but Covid really did tear the veil off and opened up eyes. People are now very skeptical of 'media' claims.
Want a laugh? Here's Wikipedia's first two sentences on their Candace Owens Farmer file:
"Candace Owens Farmer (nƩe Owens; born 1989)[2] is an American far-right political commentator, conspiracy theorist and author. She has promoted numerous conspiracy theories.[3]" (And if one reads the conspiracies, it's mostly all the stuff we now know to be true!)
The below are the footnotes [2] and [3]:
[2] Stets, Regina; Walubengo, Peris (March 20, 2024). "Candace Owens' husband: what is known about George Farmer?". Legit.ng. Retrieved December 30, 2024. (I clicked on the the information link and found George is the hated privileged rich white dude with a net worth of some one hundred and eighty millions. But still worse, he studied Christian theology.)
[3] "'Stalin was Jewish, Kabbalists are pedophiles': Candace Owens's antisemitic conspiracies". The Jerusalem Post. August 15, 2024. (This strange. But this is the Jerusalem Post whose banner in blue background with white lettering reads: TRACKING ANTISEMITISM WORLDWIDE. 24/7. And if Stalin was Jewish, he was a strange one because he attended the Gori Church School and later studied for the Russian Orthodox priesthood at the Tiflis Theological Seminary. Candace probably didn't assert this. Maybe Tate in the interview did. But who knows? And in Wikipedia Land the footnotes just have to look impressive because nobody reads them anyway)
I'll take a look at your recommendation. Take good care of yourself Natalie!
Same with famous women being actual trannies. š³š£š«
She was and still is a sneaky conniving bā¦ch
I remember HRC was credited with being the brains in the Clinton dynasty. I kind of feel sorry for Bill and Chelseaā¦ but I will get over it.
And add in a whole lot of arrogance. She had gotten away with her crimes for decades and never expected to get caught. Pride goeth before the fall.
I agree. As was Obama. He had done NOTHING in his life, but always had a cocky little smirk between those two big ears.
Iām not understanding the AI water thingā¦once it cools the computers, why canāt it be recycled? Let the hot water cool down and water lawns with it? Idk can yāall enlighten me? Even dirty water can be used on a lawnā¦
I have been thinking the same thing since reading Jeff's missive!
Always see that as an above-the-law mentality on full display.
Two reasons: for personal convenience, first. And to cover up the way she operated the State Department to benefit the Clinton Foundation.
Anne - absolutely. And add the so called āeliteā mindset - āRules for thee but not for me.ā Sheās always done exactly as she pleased politically as there have been no consequences.
Yes. Just like a toddler who is constantly testing you to see what they can get by with. When bad behavior results in negative consequences you get a reasonably well adjusted child and later adult. When bad behavior results in nothing, or is even rewarded, you get a bratty kid and an adult who is entitled and will stop at nothing to get their way. The political machine has been that toddler and too many parents (citizens) have either ignored the behavior or voted for those who engage in it, as catching them in the act and holding them accountable is too much trouble.
great analogy!
nailed it!
Can you imagine having been her daughter? I wonder what Chelsea really thinks deep down about her mother.
She took her money.. says a lot
She took OUR money, which was grifted by her mom (?) from the taxpayer.
Chelsea is just like her because that is how she was trained and raised with SRA.
They married her off into wealth and power....being the daughter of the Evil Queen-witch has its own rewards....
Surely she must have been told by someone that using a personal server was leaving herself open to being exposed to foreign government spying. But maybe I am underestimating the power of hubris.
She was, and is, a globalist. Her idea of foreign government spying is different than yours.
It hard for anyone with a moral backbone and ethical fiber to even imagine doing anything like this.
Well there you have it. Morals and ethics were never her strong point, going all the way back to Arkansas.
but pantsuits are!
She was very glib about it when accused. She has more hubris than anyone, even her hubs.
She was definitely warned and told. But she just decided to ignore the advice of legal counsel at the state department.
Those who have access to classified information receive very thorough training in necessity security measures. She had the training and chose to ignore it.
And Anne, to shield her emails from FOIA requests. If you use a govt email, all are fair game in FOIA, but personal email is not.
I'm looking forward to when the Clinton Foundation gets lumped in with all their shenanigans.
The daughter lives off that foundation.
Surely you mean all the money they've stolen from the American citizens, donations for the Haiti people who are still waiting for their homes to be built...not holding their breath. ONLY silver lining in these dark clouds is that God is NEVER mocked! He will repay with due interest!
True
An insecure server can operate as a sort of dead drop. She can feign innocence when it gets hacked by shady foreigners, and then she can act grateful when shady foreigners donate millions to the ācharityā that keeps her family comfy.
Bingo. It is so obviously intended for selling info.
Bingo. To cover up misdeeds by the Clinton foundation.
Probably so her CCP donors could have unlimited access. Never assume incompetence when devious malice will do....
Pure arrogance.
And she's got away with it.
maybe....
You ask that question as a normal, ordinary, responsible person. You ask that question as an honest, law abiding citizen. You ask that question as someone who believes there are consequences to actions. Hillary is none of those. Her ways are not your ways. She is surrounded by like-minded individuals and systems that allow her to do the complete opposite of what an honest, conscientious person would do. And she has had decades of getting away with her actions, crimes, and fraud. Why would things be difference with her posting classified information on a personal server or sending problematic emails? She does whatever evil, criminal acts she does because she can. And even now, with all the exposure of the truth I am not holding my breath that she will not get away with everything again.
Hillary is not alone - she is part of a culture and cabal where morals and accountability are foreign. I still think often of the interview with Lyndon Johnson's mistress gave a a year before she died that I first ran across several years ago. She was not part of the inner circle, but had a bird's eye view of it. Her matter of fact accounting of how people were 'disappeared', ruined or run roughshod over in pursuit of power and money was chilling. And this was >60 years ago. Made me realize that many powerful people in our history would stop at nothing to hold on to power. Worth a watch (but it's long) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POmdd6HQsus It's dated 2011, but the actual interview was in 2001; she died in 2002.
With that knowledge, why would you even want to be near him (heard he was a real pric*) let alone sleep with him. Vomit moment for sure. That broad must have had a screw loose for sure.
Have watched it a couple of times since as I was thinking the same thing. I see it as the typical path of sin. We do something wrong, and then justify it to ourselves, but that then requires more sin to both cover our butts and continue the lie we tell ourselves that we are still a 'good person'. It amazed me that she really seemed to have few regrets - despite the death of her son (that she did tear up) that was the direct result of the Johnson's people. I think she was living an exciting life as part of that circle and never really wanted to give that up. At the time of the interview she knew her time was short and likely liked the attention. But her use of the words 'colorful' to describe these criminals seemed to indicate to me that she never really reckoned with her acceptance of this life.
In her interview with Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens talks large to valuing the things of the world over Truth and the consequences thereof. And if its money, power or fame, then these things control a person and that person loses personal autonomy. That is, such people become some else's and/or something else's puppet on a string. Basically, it boils down to 'he who so loves the world does not love me (Christ/God)'. The application is that we as life must choose between the Truth over the whims of self-aggrandizement. But in my own little life's experiences I observe that most people, even people said to be 'of Faith', fudge things at the drop of a hat and all the time.
And I will give you a little example. Around 2018/2019 one could Bitcoin in the form of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF (GBTC) for $3.59 to $6.00 some ... and now GBTC is $90.00 a share. And also one could buy actual Bitcoin and quite possibly with much greater profit.
At any rate, this was a lot of USD to pass up but I did so because Bitcoin is a fraud. That is, Bitcoin disappears the second the grid is off. Bitcoin simply is not money of substance and so there weight or measure to it. Like, FRNs or any digital coin, it's imaginary fake 'money' sold to the public as something real. Digital anything is simply control coin/currency. And because people love the things the world more than the Lord, they will walk into the snare with eyes wide open.
True on the path of sin ;)
Donna, the book, "Thanks For The Memories" exposes the MKULTRA program by a young woman that was mind controlled from her childhood. The stuff she was exposed to is unbelievable but believable. It is an eye-opener and MANY of the big name Hollywood people and politicians, ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP, are involved. It's a difficult read but worth learning the truth.
I saw this years ago I think. It might well be worth a review since the real trouble started with Lyndon and the mob ... AND HERE WE ARE!
Thanks for the link.
It started years beforeā¦..the demonRATS voting 100% AGAINST doing away with slavery, funding KKK, Jim Crow Lawsā¦ā¦.their evil is as old as time.
You reminded me of her past, when Bill was still governor. There were signs then of her sense of entitlement. And then there was the question of who fathered Chelsea.
Sorry to say, but Chelsea is as unattractive as both Bill & Killary.... and they all look alike!
I believe her father is Wes Hubbell. Chelsea is his double.
Run a search on Ā«Ā Webb Hubbellās Daughter.Ā Ā»
I just read an article by Christine Liwag Dixon. In that article she described Chelsea as āgorgeousā.
But, in her defense, I think the author is as blind as a bat.
It wasn't stupid, it was all intentional. Why? For the $$$-honey! Selling Top Secret info to our enemies can be a lucrative business. Straight thru the Clinton "Money Laundering" Foundation into so many pockets. The Clintons alone (setting aside all the co-conspirators) made MILLIONS, with Bill & Hillary's gross estimated personal wealth reaching over 250 MILLION. That kind of $$$ doesn't come from "speeches" as they like to claim. Straight up Treason! There's your explanation! A tough pill to swallow, for sure, but many Americans have yet to face this TRUTH - and must do so if we are to save this country.
And Biden trying to follow in her footsteps with his son and brothers ..... he just couldn't get as much money and was dumb enough to get caught too many times.
He, too, will be outed and punished like HRC.
just saw biden on the news. he looks like a skeleton, his face is so thin and he overall is in bad shape. can you imagine if he were the president? autopen would not have been enough.
What punishment? HRC hasnāt been punishedā¦
as Jeff likes to say, "patience, patience"
Easy thing to say. There's no choice!
She was (is)above the law. She is the poster child for elites.
and pantsuits!
Those pantsuits ARE attractive...
Only in prison orange or stripes.
Perhaps glasses are...oh wait, you do wear them.... Perhaps stronger Rx???
If nothing else, that awful attire at least covers the unsightly cankles bestowed on her by Beelzebub.
not with that figure and certainly not with polyester. Linen perhaps but never polyester.!
Whomever dresses her surely hates her!
They could be silk, or cashmere blend and still would NOT look attractive on Killary!!!
She was selling classified secrets and SAPs from her computer to our enemies. China for sure.
replace dumb with criminal. She was hiding other criminal activity.
A loser since kicked off the Watergate legal team
And labeled a liar.
I read somewhere that they all do that. She just got caught.
Ignorance and arrogance.
Hubris.
When have the rules ever applied to the Clintonās? Why would it be any different sending classified emails. Their whole modus operandi has been to do whatever they want, get help covering up their bad deeds, murder anyone who might talk, shrug their shoulders when they get caught, ask, āWhat difference, at this point, does it make?ā and walk away from any consequences. Why would she have thought it would be any different with the emails?
I think it is fairly simple. The ends justify the means. Hillary has been well trained.
She never expected to lose.
Blinding arrogance.
Sounds about right. Sheād have gotten away with it if if wasnāt for those meddling Trump voters. Ruht row Scooby.
excellent summary. now we need to find out why she deleted thousands of emails. What was she hiding. Of course, the Mockingbird media has never had any interest.
NSA still has them all, IMO. Likely Russia too.
Sadly, the NSA and CIA are still independent from America and its citizens. lawless swine.
Yep. They have all electronic records, but somehow we never find the answers. Kind of like how Maxwell gets imprisoned but her stories never come to light.
And now isn't her #2 married to baby Soros?
As the Trump administration gets closer to prosecuting
Hillary, it will be interesting to see the accidental death and suicide rate increase with those associated with her.
Yikes!!!!
Used it as part of a color revolution and coup upon the United States of America. Itās amazing to me how casual folks are about this.
I really want Hillary to pay in the form of jail time and total humiliation. Not as revenge but as justice.
Same!
Crazy when Trump later was praising as 'good people' Hill and Bill and toasting them at a big gala. Was he just playing politics, or is he just as much swamp as them?
Trump says a lot of off the cuff stuff I donāt understand. His actions speak better for his agenda than his comments.
Keep your friends closeā¦& your enemies closer.
I believe Trump is playing chess much of the time. At times Iām flummoxed then laterā¦. what he said or did makes perfect sense.
They are all part of one big club and you ain't in it!
Like his full support and complicity with Israel's mass-slaughter of innocent Gazans... like his war crime unprovoked bombings of Yemen and Iran... like rope a dope delays on releasing the Epstein files, let alone the promised 911 and JFK files (all to protect Israel and Mossad)... like his refusal to ban the Covid death-jabs outright... like his ongoing funding and arming of Ukraine... like his constant clownish attempts to bully, threaten and harass good guy Putin and Russia... like his insane push to start QE again (lower interest rates) which will put a final nail in the US dollar and, perhaps, collapse the markets as well...
Yes, Kunta-Kamala would be worse.
Youāll feel better when your meds kick in.
Maybe YOU need meds, asshole... what did I say that was untrue?
Ask your mommy.
Trump has been known to fake people out.
My poor brother is giddy with anticipation of someone finally going to jail. Iām less optimistic as in nope not going to happen. He told me more whistleblowers have come forth. I laughed: āyea, I bet they have. They can see the writing on the wall. They know the Hilary Clintons and Barack Obamas of the world will never face a moment of reckoning so theyāll come after all the peons down chain for retribution.ā
Yea, I bet theyāre coming forward and making deals.
Best succinct summary! š Screenshot it
LOCK HER UP!!!
Makes you wonder what was in those emails to go through all the trouble of hiding it
š¤¦š¼āāļømake it make sense
There is a Bureaucratic/Administrative State embedded inside āthe governmentā which has been metastasizing throughout the US for 75 years. It replenishes itself with like-minded sycophants through each generation. Its reach now extends globally. Those favored few that attain protected leadership status are above the law. The Media is a captured facilitator of the Agenda. It appears Donald Trump is a threat to this Agenda.
Yes, operating outside of gov and corporate information security standards because they could.
Further back than 75 yearsā¦..
HRC used private server to sell state secrets & national assets for personal gain. IE, the Clinton Foundation.
I can just imagine the guy they had following her around with a tranquilizer needle for every time she went manic/bipolar. Like Sigourney Weaverās character in Ghostbusters.
For the water problem from AI. They just need to set up closed cooling circuits like are used in Nuclear Power Plants (because of radiation) or automobiles (because they have to carry their cooling systems). Theyāre evaporating the water because itās cheaper. Charge them for it and theyāll find another way.
I read up on what it would cost for an average DC to use a closed loop system, similar to geothermal. Once filled it just circulates through the system and back. In geothermal the pipes are usually 3-6ft deep and the water stays at the ground temperature at that point. Where we are it's about 55 degrees. In TX you might need to go deeper for the cooler temperatures.
The system alone for an average sized DC would be $5M and at least $20M for larger ones. They would rather just pump water from a source, than to pay for a recycle system.
Any approval board needs to force them to use closed loop or build a new reservoir (around $1B). SMRs will pretty much take care of both, but they still need to be forced to use a closed loop system.
We put in a geothermal heating/cooling system about 15 years ago. We have limestone rock about a foot under the grass, so we had 6 360 foot vertical shafts drilled. Works great. At the time it was considered a new technology in this city, and ours was the first property to have it. We wound up with piles of limestone dust that was distributed around our neighborhood by the wind. š®šµāš«ššµāš«
We put one in a house we built (for a customer) and ran it horizontally because we had the area to do it. We ran 8 lines, 600 ft total (300 out and back). We had a split system (one 3 and another 5 ton unit) in the house (6300 sq ft house) house. That was in 2008 and it's been working great from what we hear.
It's much more expensive to have to drill vertically rather laying out horizontally.
It was around 850$ but now it's likely many times more than that. We had an oil/water driller come in from Paola, Kansas.
that's an AWESOME PRICE.
2009 we had it put in. That was just for drilling the shafts down to 360 feet.
Nuclear reactors usually have cooling ponds, so why wouldnāt server farms have the same thing.
Even reactors that draw water from rivers and such, have to cool it before dumping it back in.
Seems simpleā¦ but I am fairly simple minded.
Exactly. We live in the shadow of TMI and supposedly the reactor is going back online for AI. It's on the Susquehanna.
Look at it that someone else will be paying for the energy it produces. It will help with the stress on the Grid.
A funny story for you. My FIL was a nuclear boiler designer for 50 years. The day TMI had it's meltdown, he was awakened in the middle of the night and told to GET THERE NOW. The and the NRC wanted him there to determine what happened. He was (I think) the first or second outside person to go inside. I was fascinated when I found this out as I remember the incident well. I spent many hours talking to him about what happened. He stated NOTHING bad (outside the reactor) was damaged, NOTHING leaked. All the systems worked as they should have. There were no three legged cows, no 20' across freak sunflowers. The media, as usual, freaked and stoked all kinds of rumors. Always remember when the media "hair" is on fire, their slogan is "if it bleeds, it leads". They are all about hysteria.
On top of that, I live about 15 miles from a Nuclear plant that went through one of the worst earthquakes on the east coast, a 5.8 with it's epicenter probably 10 miles =/- from the nuclear plant. As a precaution it was shut down to check that there were no issues. After the inspection it was found that it weathered the quake just fine. It has been running since 1978. It provides 17% of the states energy. It's operation has been approved through 2060 at this time.
I think you'll be ok when they reopen the one reactor at TMI. The other reactor has still been running all this time.
That is a super cool story and I thank you. I was a young bride and nurse working in public health at the time. We would have been responsible for distributing iodine pills to prevent radioactive iodine poisoning had the situation escalated. We also would have needed to help evacuate the area and frankly, I remember thinking I wanted to run the other way! But those of us in the area were not as panicked as outsiders. When visiting my parents in VA, President Carter was visiting the reactor and I had no idea it was national news. That summer tourism in Lancaster County died as we also had the Polio scare and the gas crisis.
Yes, but what about withstanding ballistic missiles? No one ever talks about how war might impact down-winders living near these smaller nuclear power plants that are being considered.
it is but for some reason the costs for DCs is horrid. But then Nuclear isn't cheap and maybe the cooling system is a big part of that.
In 1988, when we built our house, geothermal was very new and we got a PP&L rebate for putting it in. It is "pump and dump" which uses a lot of water. We would have to put in an entire new system if we went closed loop, but after the recent drought here in southeast PA, we have been thinking about what to do. We have been inundated with rain this spring and summer, so our decision is on hold. Geothermal is very efficient, particularly the AC.
If you have enough land check out using a horizontal system. It's far cheaper.
We were fortunate to get the clean energy rebate the government was offering then. We also put in an on-demand hot water system at the same time.
This sounds like the system my parents put in their new build in 1985. They laid a loop coil out in the front yard, which was about 2.5 acres. They had ongoing problems with the AC from the moment we moved in. That guy was out there fixing it every week in the summer. My parents finally sold the house and moved.
Yikes that had to be pricey!
As a neighbor, a DC should not allow their "thirst" to become mine. Nor should local municipalities.
and while they are at it how about buying some turbines that make electricity so that they don't crash the grid
NO. We don't need those things either... unless you want one in YOUR yard.
SMRs are the best, cheapest, and most efficient way to go. Also make the DC company pay for it.
Theyāll see it as an opportunity to build more windmills.
The administration has just this week said, there will be no more wind turbines approved in this country. ššš
DC? SMRs?
DC=Data Center.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_modular_reactor
SMR = small modular reactor, factory built nuclear reactor.
Direct Current?
SMR - a small nuclear reactor. I don't want one anywhere in the US unless the owners not only will personally use all their money to clean up any mess, but will personally go in to clean it up. And they need to guarantee that 25% of their family members will personally live on site for 6 months and go into the plant to clean it up too.
With those kind of guarantees, we would know they would make safety a priority.
As I said above, I live close to a nuclear plant. My FIL was a nuclear boiler designer. I've lived here for 32 years and there has never been an issue with the plant. It powers 450k homes on just over 1000 acres compared to a utility solar plant even closer to me that barely powers 75k homes and covers 6400 acres (10 sq miles).
No one around here worries about the plant (which is approved until 2060). We just wish they'd finally build the third reactor.
It's a lot harder to get solar and wind developers to pay for or clean up their messes. I'll take nuclear over those any day. Far more efficient and cleaner than any "green/renewable" energy.
I DO agree that Amazon, Google, Meta et al SHOULD pay for the SMR and post a bond to cover any issues that might arise.
Put the data centers on abandoned oil platforms in the Gulf of Americaā¦ or off the California coast.
They should put them where the ocean is cooling in the wrong places.
Thank you. I was thinking why donāt they just keep recycling the water. š§
Prestone Anti-freeze Coolant!!! State-of-the-art for decades!
Prestoneā¦ no, make that Quaker State. And Iām going to need some 30 weight ball bearings. Cāmon guys, itās all ball bearings nowadays!
T
I was wondering the same thing. What about recycling? Is the water terribly damaged?
It would have to go through all kinds of filtering going in and out, I am sure. That's why closed loop is best. Fill it once and maybe just have to top it off occasionally. It just recirculates the same water.
Makes sense. I am sure they can find something. Or AI can figure it out.
āOr AI can figure it out.ā A beautiful example of understated irony!
Probably just gone, through evaporation.
PRECISELY what I was thinking too!! AI and its minions are supposed to be so smart and progressive??? Duh! Why in the Heck arenāt they using closed system cooling to conserve precious resources???? Water and O2 Are as basic as needed get, yes? ššš
Something needs to be done. I see arrangements already all over the country to set up AI data centers, with little to no discussion about the water and energy requirements. Just setting it up with rural cities that are run by clueless people. Very concerning because there doesn't seem to be any incentive to protect or support the locals through energy and water conservation. Dumping-ground mentality.
As Jeff C. stated - it is a war mentality - "survival/dominance" - so: quick and dirty, full speed ahead at any cost. Stand back...
I was waiting for that. When water is scarce, you use sealed systems. Refrigeration costs money. Aw well. Pay for it.
Thank you. When I read that, I knew there had to be other options. Btw, just curious, but where are all the environmentalists now? Paging Greta!
My first thought as well - the climate change/environmentalists seem to have dried up concerning AI wastefulness of both electricity and water. And their vast buildings destroying greenspace.
I have no use for AI and will try to avoid it at all costs. Too bad the world can't see its dangers and threats.
Well, AI is interesting. Sometimes very good at finding correct answers quickly. Sometime very bad, especially if you ask about any of the Marxist shibboleths. Probably thinks if you find Sydney Sweeney attractive youāre a fascist. Just sayināā¦
I will still pass. Not my gig.
Well, interestingly Grok got the Sydney Sweeney thing right. But ask it about Climate Change or the relationship between Fascism, Socialism & Communism and it starts spouting the approved narrative. Sometimes a useful tool, but bears watching.
And, of course, itās still a free country, despite attempts to make it otherwise. Do as you will.
I know that Lori is not going to touch it. But for you other adventurersā¦
Well, just for completeness I asked Grok about the Covid vaccines. You will not be surprised to discover that the Covid vaccines are safe and effective, donāt cause SAEs (itās all anecdotal donāt you know), saved millions, etc. Like I said earlier: good with some things, not with others and certainly not trustworthy about the Approved Narrative.
Wonderful! AI is a source for quick answers - but you can't trust the answers...
The covid vaccines are now the number one way to evaluate the neutrality of any AI-spewed info. I wonder if Grok is pushed about its truthiness concerning the vaxxes will it fess up and give the true info?
To me, bears nothing. The big zippo, the big nothing burger, nada, nope, see ya, bye bye. LOL!
AI is a glorified Google search, digital Magic 8 Ball. Probably going to go the way of driverless electric vehicles. All hype.
Thanks for the memory, Magic 8 Ball, loved that!
My favorite Hillary quote, "If that SOB gets elected, we'll all hang!". It's the first time she's ever been right.
And it is not too late.
Still waiting for them to swing.
PATIENCE!!!
Ya Iām with ya on that. Ready for real accountability and less chatting about it

Luckily, prophecy can come out of the mouth of a donkey, see Balaam's ass, so.
I will supply the rope.
No one is hanged yet. Barr was totally corrupt... I'm not sure Bondi is just as bad.
Let A/i die of thirst and lack of power. Humans will always be a million times more important than any A/i thing. Nuclear reactors are fine but don't they also require tons of water? If A/i had any brains, it would build itself in the ocean and figure out how to draw power from it and cool itself off at the same time. Like walking and chewing gum simultaneously...maybe too much of a challenge for those silly techno-nerds.
Yes AI first job should be how to cool itself and use less energy(or find a good way to create more energy). Hope some ones chat bot is working on it. Why donāt we all ask AI this morning to figure it out.
Right? If it's so smart, let it figure out how to solve it's own problem.
as long as it is not at the expense of us or our environment and all that live in it.
Maybe itās not so smart. Like a baby duck who lost its mom and found a cat to mommy it. Itās amazing and adorable but itās still a duck that imprinted with a cat!
I wondered the same
Well, apparently, AI (and it's developers) don't have as much common sense as a single human being.
Your post has been noted by the AI Defense Agency which scans for non-compliance and misinformation.
Also it appears your vax record is out of date. Please address this immediately.
Wow. Yeah. Time to sell the house, move on to the boat.
š¤£š¤£š¤£

Or as much as my cat or dog.
The idea that nearby residents have to reduce their water usage to appease the ai gods makes my blood boil.
Just as bad a politicians preventing California's water problem from being solved so they can continue to make it a campaign issue.
same, pure BS.
Same !!!!!
Yes, humans are a million times more important than AI. Well said!
No problem. Just control the weather with lots of rain and flood the State like what happened in Texas. Lower taxes on boats and rafts.
I pondered the same
I think the concern is nations that donāt have strong AI will become subservient toā¦possibly even enslaved byā¦those that do.
Itās the new nuclear weapon.
And this concern is founded, no matter how much we wish it werenāt. The government with the biggest guns will be the boss. And if your governments guns are powered by humans making calculations in seconds or minutes and the opponentās guns are powered by AI making decisions in the tiniest fractions of secondsā¦they do have a battlefield advantage. (Not that this is entirely unmanageable but just saying the concern of being behind in AI is valid.)
I agree, itās always been about which humans are better at killing other humans
āIf you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.ā
Yes re: speed. Logically, having reached the nanosecond goal, the only follow-on move is preemption.
Let AI design a fake "system" set like the one made for the fake moon landing and let the world think we won the AI race without advancing what we already have.
In a closed world that would work. But like the moon landings (which Russia/China have monitored and verified), the AI war is a battle we can't ignore as our competitors will have systems that will cause us big problems if we don't have our own.
Why canāt we just put AI on the moon? It should be able to figure out how to get there itself.
Brilliant! Has NASA asked AI to reconstruct all the lost records that would tell us how to get back to the moon? Didn't think so.
Re: "Why canāt we just put AI on the moon? It should be able to figure out how to get there itself."
Thatās funny, you read my mind. I was actually wondering if thatās what they are doing when I read todayās article. šš
Agree ! Better Ai die than our food supply!
All I can think about are our Central Valley farmers and the current water crisis š¬
Itās been my experience during my life that anything artificial is never as good as the real thing
ā¦ although that may not be true for intelligence
AI should get smart before it gets big.
"...gets big." Aka - takes over.
If AI can't cut my grass, pay my bills, clean my house, transport me from place to place (like Star Trek), make/serve me my daily food/water, shovel snow, repair my crumbling house, etc., etc. -- it is useless to me. Also, screw the terrible AI "Art." I am an artist and I can spot "AI Art" a mile away. Terrible, ugly, demonic.
Agree. As I commented to the second-to-top liked thread above, I see these AI data centers being set up in rural communities run by clueless people. No consideration of the massive energy and water needs.
I guarantee the world is going to look like that in "Book of Eli" in 20 years. No life, AND no giant servers
and destroy ocean life in the interim, no thanks.
So with the environmental devastation wrought by AI AND bitcoin mining (Iād like to add) are we still supposed to believe in CO2-driven climate change? Just curious as to how our overlords want us to piece these items together.
Yes, the cloud seeding make sense now.
This!! š
We are supposed to not think too much.
Boom!
...."financially incentivized hospitals to push covid shots." To the multiple boosted dorks of the world....let that statement sink in. Your olfactory senses have been obliterated by that face diaper you're still wearing. It's time to rip that useless filthy rag off your puss and wake up and smell, well....your naive selves. You reek. This just in: The "Healthcare Industry" is first and foremost a BU$INE$$ entity.
I saw two face diapers in the grocery store yesterday. Crazy!
Staggers the imagination. Stupidity marches on.
We have morons in my store wearing face diapers. Now, perhaps some of them have true medical issues, like I know one is recovering (if you want to call it that) from cancer treatment and has zero immune system. But the rest? Sheep.
My elderly neighbor who is visually impaired asked me to take her grocery shopping. She still wears the mask and asked me to. Out of respect I did even in the car. Humbling oneself before God and others has its merits.
I could not do it for any reason. I HAD to at the hospital for my mother who needed excessive non covid medical care during the covid time, but cheated every chance I got because the claustrophobia got the best of me. At this point, they can arrest me if they want. Not doing it anymore for anyone. I did manage to evade the vax psyop, but only just. Kept it from mom also.
I would kindly explain that the latest science shows masks are bad for cutting off your oxygen, and the holes are too large to block disease. She could then choose not to accept my free ride and free time or not, no hard feelings.
On an unrelated note, when my mother was in the hospital, they moved her to a dedicated covid wing at the height of the crisis (2021) because it was entirely empty. Hmmm.
I already had a box of paper masks in my house when the Covid scam hit. The reason I had them was because we have dust storms where I live and I often had to walk my dog after them. (And dust storms throw Valley Fever fungi up into the air, which can get you very sick if you breathe it in.) IMO, dust storms and doing yard work with pollen allergies are the only reason to put those things on oneās face. Anything smaller than dust, fungi, or pollen will go right through it. The paper masks arenāt even enough protection for spray painting.
I have thought about wearing one when I garden, because my allergies are terrible. But I'm afraid my neighbors will think I'm a Covidiot, so I just keep sneezing.
I would have humbly declined
And thatās ok too. Comme ci, comme sa.
How is wearing a face mask humbling yourself before God? So rather than reassuring this lady that the world is not a germ filled place of danger you went along with her fear based requestā is that correct? Iām not trying to be snotty or rude. Iām just trying to figure out how you have come to the conclusion that somehow you were humbling yourself.
Personally I would rarely if ever wear a mask but putting others before oneself is scripturally sound.
To each his/her own.
Next time, politely and gently put her on the bus.
Thanks I suppose my point in posting is that there are a sometimes circumstances that may warrant wearing a mask
I suppose most of us including me have done it at times. Have a Blessed day š
That is very kind. To make a grandma feel safe even if she is misguided, I would do it too.
Never forget, being blamed for killing grandma is how that whole batch of nonsense started. Grandma needs to turn off the 24 hour television channels and get real.
At times, we need to make concessions for our elders. Proving and showing we are right is not always imho the correct thing to do at certain times.
Sorry will never try to wear one again. Found out I can't.
I admire your respect for another's point of view. Rare these days...
I would never bow my knee to that Baal.
Give me your list, or call your order in and let them deliver it.
And those are good alternatives. She does have groceries delivered but is homebound and needs to get out occasionally. Good suggestionsš. Thank you š
Being a welder/ metalsmith, unfortunately I have to live in them on work days. Beats inhaling the dust I create. If I have something small to do, and dont want to be bothered, I feel the effects of not wearing one Immediately. But, never in public. Why would I?
Wearing a welderās mask is an entirely different mask with an entirely different purpose.
No Iām referring to n95s. I buy them by the case. When you grind rusty metal, or even clean metal, you get steel, or stainless, or zinc, airborn. Depending on what you are working with. So yeah, 12 hours in a mask isnāt unusual. Just saying, I know they do nothing for viral sized particulate, so I find it funny the stupid shit people have done for tte last five years. But my point is there is a need, and Iām glad I had one today, rusty steel grinding to prepare for a weld, 90 degrees, and no wind.
My husband had a double lung transplant post covid and was asked to wear a mask when we travel, since I do not have a mask on, as I am not immunocompromised, itās shocking and rude how many people feel they can shame us by saying none of this works since I do not have a mask on. We get it, truly we do, but move along and be kind or say nothing. Truly no oneās business.
On a side note, heās a surgeon and patients are protected by the OR team wearing masks so who really knows?
I hope your husband has recovered fully and is doing well with a high quality of life. Please offer him my best regards and a hug from me please. That surgery was tremendous along with then having to start taking immunosuppressives afterward. Transplants and the suppression meds do put the body at risk in many ways. I am glad he wore his mask as that can also afford peace of mind. A study back a few years did show that masks don't work generally speaking but N95's were the best if one has to wear a mask. Whenever someone says something derogatory, tell them to thank God they are healthy and not challenged as some are. Sometimes people do not think before they speak or understand the gravity of a situation, especially health related. Wishing you both all the best and thinking of the person who made the donation that enabled your husband to live his life.
Some people just love to shame others. Don't give them a second thought.
Oxygen deprivation isn't going to help anyone recover their health.
Yes. Immune-compromised adults forcibly exposed to germy little kids.
My good friend just had her tongue removed dt turbo cancer fr being jabbed. Remade tongue with thigh muscle. Had to have a trach and feeding tube, chemo and radiation. She is highly immune suppressed right now so in a case like this, her doc wants a mask on her. I get it and agree as she is too vulnerable and sick from chemo and radiation and has lost 50 pounds from all this.
Good luck to her!
Thank you so much.
Lori, that sounds wretched! I can't imagine getting used to a rebuilt tongue on top of all the other things she is dealing with physically!
She writes bc she can't talk yet that it is pure hell in its truest form.
Not a fan of wearing a mask just because, but lived in Japan for 5 years and still have the habit of wearing a mask when unwell and coughing for the same reason one uses a handkerchief and turns away from others when coughing.
It makes zero sense. Nano-scale virus particles aren't stopped by those masks. And they make it worse by building up the nasties inside the masks. Yikes.
True, the holes in the filter of an N95 mask are 4 times bigger than the convid virus
ā¦meaning that 4 of them little buggers can fit thru one at the same time
The masks catch droplets just the same as a handkerchief. I never said anything about stopping nano sized particles.
You should never wear a mask and block fresh air and keep whatever youāre coughing out right next to your face to breathe it back in. Itās disgusting. Handkerchief were cotton. Now youāre breathing in microplastics and maybe chemicals. Where are the studies that show wearing a mask keeps you healthier and prevents others from getting sick ?
What microplastics and chemicals? Simple cotton masks.
Why do surgeons wear them then?
That part where the body is trying to get rid of stuff but the mask holds it near the face. Always wore a cotton mask when I could back in the day instead of the plastic ones. And learned to carry a handkerchief with me. And try to avoid going out when Iām sick. Having worked in hotels during covid, I have seen many creative approaches to mask wearing, that is for sure.
Masks don't work for this purpose
True, but the Japanese think it is the polite thing to do and it predates Covid. When we were in Japan 20 years ago, we asked our tour guide about it....and he told us it was out of politeness.
There are lovely things we can do out of politeness, but Iām thinking of all the wrong things we might do out of politeness. Itās not always the right reason.
Japan citizens wear masks to avoid air pollution particulates... and good masks ARE effective at that...
Chinese even more so. VERY bad air there.
We were there in the wintertime and the air in Tokyo wasn't bad. Anyhow, our tour guide was a native Japanese man and he said people wore them because they had colds. White cloth masks are worthless against air pollution.
Yes, the Chinese wear masks because of air pollution.
āThisā purpose? My purpose when I occasional wear a mask is to prevent coughing droplets on other people, same purpose as a handkerchief but easier since I donāt have to reach for a cloth.
N95's do.
The Japanese don't wear N95s, at least not before Covid they didn't. As I recall, the people we saw wore white cloth masks. As BeadleBlog said, I think they are intended to help the same as handkerchiefs. Nobody wants to be sneezed on or end up with somebody else's snot blown on them.
yes those dont work but I was answering RT when he said masks don't work and I said N95s do. Whether the japanese wear or don't wear them is not my concern.
Thank you for your comment. I wasn't a covid hysteric and covid mask wearer, but some go overboard on the other end of the spectrum. I have a friend who went around making fun of every mask wearer she would see. I read about a lady on a flight who was harassed about her mask. She was undergoing chemo for cancer so a compromised immune system. I don't worry about what other people choose to do.
Keep in mind all the cheap masks are made in China.
Which should be the number one reason why American minds would choose not to wear them
and remdes, paxlovid and vents.
āIf it's Covidā¦Paxlovid.ā š¤Ŗš¤š¤„
That one made me want to shoot the TV!
You go, Elvis!!...or Elvisette, rather.

The incentives must be dwindling now because I just saw an ad telling shoppers that they get $20 off their grocery purchases if they take the jab while they shop for their tofu and oat milk.
There is a ministry called Christian Law Association whose ministry newsletter used to have one page of large font prayer requests for the legal problems they were dealing with. Their latest is 2 pages (!) of small font. I naively thought because of recent Supreme Court rulings, these things werenāt causing problems for Christians. Not true.

Thank you for sharing this! It is important we hear and pray for the Church!
Wow! So many states there as bad as California! The encroachment on our legal rights for religious people is so blatant! we definitely need to pray for all these things! And if we donāt push back, it will get worse!
Iām reminded of the warning that Jesus gave his followers about how the world would treat them
ā¦ right before the āworldā crucified him
JCā¦ā¦.will be sharing this with my Bible Study Group. Itās hard to fathom that this could be happening in our own nation.
Wow
Just glancing at these, at least some of these, maybe most, are illegal. These people should call alliance defending freedom, who would send out a letter to the entity and the bias would stop immediately. Or they would be taken to court.
Yup, Christians being persecuted. Old story, same tune. How do we have so many aholes living in this country?
Apparently, aholes multiply as fast as the rats in New York City
And Dearborn Michigan, Atlanta, Ga, Nashville, Cincinnati, Oh
I will take the rats anytime over the other.
Blame the Dutch, starting with Nieuw Nederland.
JC, thanks for sharing! This is outrageous. Freedom of religion is a crime now? Are other faiths experiencing the same persecution?
Wow. This is crazy. Thank you for sharing.
Hell must be hungry - to suppress the gospel so unmercifully!
Can you imagine any Muslims being censored or disciplined for, say, praying to Mecca in public, or distributing tracts, or public preaching? Nah.
Holy Smokes or holy jokes!

I appreciate what he has to say, but he does scare me a little bit! There is something out of balance there. I think he has a challenging time facing personal demons.
As we all do.
His main home burned. Of course he has the money to be able to live in someplace decent and wait the amount of time needed to rebuild, but still, he lost a lot of personal mementos. He was out of town when it burned and wasn't able to get things out of his house.

Same in Missouri. The humidity just broke yesterday. I have lived here nearly 40 years, it gets bad. The past 3 years have been hot but dry. This year was a reminder of what our weather can really do.
I wonder if this moisture in the atmosphere will cause more winter snow.

I wonder if the water that is used for cooling, since it's not radioactive, can then just be used for domestic hot water and radiant heating. Is there any reason why the water would be contaminated? The old steam system of New York comes to mind. Put the data centers where it's cold and use the waste heat.
Personally, I'm incredibly anti-AI, it's already dumbing people down, and that trend is showing no signs of stopping.
There seems to be no explaining the stubbornness of men that insist on doing nonsensical things
ā¦ like building golf courses in the deserts of Nevada
ā¦ or trading freshwater for fossil fuels
ā¦ or turning food into fuel
ā¦ or killing people over religious differences
ā¦ I could go on, and on
anti AI too.
My twelve year old reading the AI consumption portion: āwell, thatās the trend. First plants and animals are more important than humans, now computers and robots are too.ā š³
I realize thereās more nuance than that but heās not wrongā¦
welcome to the Useless Eaters club
That shoe fits, although I will probably always prefer 'lilies of the field' ~
Basically, itās globalists more important than anybody or anything else.
without plants and animals, what do we eat????
Lori, or anyone do you remember soylent green?
Indeed I do. "Soylent Green is people." You bring up a real possibility. One of the best movies ever. Also note how people voluntarily euthanzie themselves in the movie and how it is encouraged.
Crow.
indeed!
Somewhere in the book, God said that the people was gonna eat dung or there is this;
Leviticus 26:29
And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
ā¦ I think that was gonna be due to their disobedience to his voice
Well we already eat dung via fecal transplants....
All the probiotics now are either from human feces or human breast milk, mostly from feces.
The starter bacteria in commercial yogurt is from human feces.
Of course the bacteria are isolated from the fecal waste material. Much of it originate in China.
Go to biodive.com.
that link goes to a site that says the domain is available????
Sorry, Lori. I had the name wrong. The correct website is.BacDive. I found it on YouTube from a yogurt expert named Matthew Cress.
Itās funny how they wonāt use the word āfecesā, instead they put the source as āhuman intestineā.
People who can prove that they have never had an antibiotic can now sell their feces, I have seen ads looking for donors.
Crap, I did not know that...notice what I did there, lol!
I will check it out. If it is coming from China and we eat yogurt or probiotics, kefir etc, we got the spike protein in us as it passes through to the feces when you have covid. Fermented veges and sourdough would keep you away from that option. And I have to say it for levity sake, Holy Shit! Thanks for the info I think......
Shit, Lori, I hope they use oral capsules instead of dried patties
Yes capsules or they insert treated donor feces rectally. They do this in vet medicine too.
Yeah I know, Lori, I was just shittinā ya
Yikes! I hadn't anything about the AI water-hog problem. This is quintessential C&C and is why I love this newsletter--learning about what is unreported or under reported elsewhere. Thanks, JC!!
So why then do Dems now love Nuclear Power when they stopped it years ago saying it was too dangerous? Because they are the ones to profit from it. It isnāt like it got any safer or we have a good way to store the spent fuel. Dems are actually removing dams that create electricity. It isnāt because Ai is a technology that they are particularly fond of either. They hate Peter Thiel. Hillary Clinton as Sec State made a deal with the Russians to sale American rights to American uranium. https://www.congress.gov/116/meeting/house/109694/documents/HHRG-116-II06-20190625-SD004.pdf
True this!
If the Ai data centers need so much water to cool the equipment, why the heck are they putting them in the south where it's hot & humid & water is scarce? Looks like some state/city/county govts made some stupid deals. (Texas, I'm looking at you!!!)
Follow theš°money.
Grifters everywhere.
Bingo!
Wide swaths of flat land requiring very little excavation or reshaping?? Illinois has a state full of that and we get cold. What northern states have few hills and mountains? Havenāt had my coffee yet so foggy brain ā¦
Texas is business friendly but the Great Lakes states are not. So the blue-purple states hang onto their water and suck Texas dry with their AI queries.
My thoughts exactly. Look to the northwest; although itās a blue state, and manufacturing and production are incompatible with the mindset, they are wet most of the time. Build data centers there.
They already are - in Eastern Oregon.
The upper midwest would seem to be the logical choice for these centers. There's plenty of water, and most of the year you wouldn't even need a water cooled system, just don't heat the place as much.
